Chapter 406 The Battle is Intense
The sect was disturbed by the shadowy vanguard of the evil spirits under the cover of night. The darkness as thick as ink was like an invisible net, tightly covering the entire sect. Only the soft light emitted by the defense array in front of the treasure house tore open a corner with difficulty, revealing a little light of hope.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stood by the magic circle with full concentration, their eyes locked on the constantly attacking demons, not daring to slack off. The demons were like tireless evil spirits, rushing towards the magic circle wave after wave, fearlessly and fearlessly, with each collision accompanied by a deafening roar, and the black energy waves were like surging tides, spreading wantonly on the surface of the magic circle, causing the magic circle's light to flicker violently, like a lonely boat in a storm that could capsize at any time, swaying unsteadily.
Yun Yao's posture was agile, and her hands quickly formed seals. Spiritual power rushed out from her fingertips, turning into wisps of light and merging into the defensive array. Under the urging of her spiritual power, each defensive talisman was like an awakened ancient beast, with a powerful pressure, accurately embedded in the key nodes of the array. The runes flashed and turned into indestructible barriers, shining brightly, interweaving and merging with the original light of the array, making the defense of the array rise steadily. Her eyes were firm and calm, always paying attention to every subtle change in the array, not missing any possible flaws. Although her clothes were soaked with sweat and her hair was messy on both sides of her cheeks, she was unaware of it. She had only one belief in her heart - to protect the sect and never let the demon shadow break through the array.
Chu Mochen stood proudly at the edge of the magic circle like a sword unsheathed. He held a long sword, the sword blade was cold and gleaming, like frost, flashing a breathtaking light in the night. That light was not just the cold reflection of metal, but also the manifestation of his surging spiritual power. Once a demon shadow broke through the spiritual power barrier at the edge of the magic circle, he would attack as fast as lightning, his figure was as fast as a ghost, making people dizzy. He shook his wrist, and the long sword instantly turned into a silver lightning, carrying endless sword energy, slashing at the demon shadow with a devastating force. The sword moves were extremely sharp, and every swing was accompanied by the sound of tearing the air, as if it could cut through the endless darkness. The demon shadow had no power to fight back under his sword, and was instantly chopped into wisps of black smoke and dissipated into the night sky. However, the number of demon shadows was too large. As soon as a batch was eliminated, new demon shadows surged like a tide, continuously, and seemed endless.
In the fierce battle, Yun Yao, with her keen perception, noticed that the demon shadows seemed to have a strange ability - they could accurately sense the weak points of the magic circle, and then continue to concentrate their strength, like a group of mad bulls, madly hitting the same part. She was shocked. If the demon shadows were allowed to attack like this, the magic circle would be broken sooner or later. In her anxiety, she did not bother to wipe the beads of sweat on her forehead, and hurriedly turned to Chu Mochen and shouted: "Brother Chu, the demon shadow is attacking the southwest corner of the magic circle, and the spiritual power output is almost unable to keep up. We have to adjust quickly!" The voice trembled slightly due to anxiety, but it was clearly transmitted to Chu Mochen's ears.
Chu Mochen heard this and instantly looked towards the southwest corner of the magic circle. He saw that the light there was much dimmer than other places. The attacks of the demon shadow fell like dense raindrops. The energy waves hit the magic circle, splashing layers of black ripples, and the magic circle was shaky. Without hesitation, he immediately changed the direction of spiritual power output, and the powerful spiritual power in his body was like a flood that broke through the dam, pouring continuously towards the southwest corner of the magic circle. Yun Yao also acted synchronously, and the speed of forming seals with both hands was faster. The spiritual power light was like a smart elf, happily jumping and blending into the weak points of the magic circle to strengthen the defense.
However, the demonic shadows seemed to have sensed the intentions of the two, and their attacks became more and more fierce. Not only did their speed increase, but their numbers also increased at a speed visible to the naked eye. From the initial one or a few, they gradually increased to more than a dozen. They were like a group of well-trained wolves, cooperating with each other to form a siege, and launched a more frantic attack on the magic circle from all directions. Some demonic shadows were responsible for the frontal attack, shaking the foundation of the magic circle with powerful force; some demonic shadows took the opportunity to attack from the flanks, trying to find new weak points; and some demonic shadows hovered in the air, releasing black energy beams to interfere with Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's spiritual power control.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen felt the pressure was as heavy as a mountain. Every time they resisted the attack of the demon shadow, it was like moving a mountain, and the spiritual power was consumed greatly. As time went by, their faces became paler, their breath became more rapid, their steps began to be a little weak, and they gradually became a little powerless. But the determination in their eyes never diminished. They looked at each other and saw the determination to never give up in each other's eyes.
"Yun Yao, hold on a little longer, reinforcements should be here soon!" Chu Mochen gritted his teeth and shouted loudly. His voice echoed in the night sky, a little hoarse but full of power.
"Well, Brother Chu, I know we can hold on!" Yun Yao nodded slightly. Although her voice was weak, it revealed her incomparable determination.
At this time, the attack of the demon shadow became more and more violent, and the light of the magic circle became dimmer and dimmer, with only a thin halo left, which could be completely extinguished at any time. Yun Yao was anxious, knowing that once the magic circle was broken, the sect's treasure house would be directly exposed to the threat of the demon shadow, and the consequences would be disastrous. She looked around, trying to find a new way to deal with it. Suddenly, she had an idea and thought of a method of spiritual resonance that she had seen when she was reading ancient books in the library. This method allows two practitioners to temporarily stimulate their potential and increase the intensity of spiritual power output through a special way of spiritual power operation in desperate situations. However, this method puts a great burden on the body of the practitioner. If you are not careful, you may suffer from spiritual backlash and seriously injure your meridians.
But at this moment, Yun Yao could no longer care about many things. She turned to look at Chu Mochen, with a flash of determination in her eyes: "Brother Chu, let's try the method of spiritual resonance. Maybe we can hold on until the reinforcements arrive!"
Chu Mochen was slightly stunned, and then he understood what Yun Yao meant. He knew the danger of this method, but looking at the shaky formation in front of him and Yun Yao's determined eyes, he nodded heavily without hesitation: "Okay, Yun Yao, let's do it together!"
The two quickly adjusted the route of their spiritual power, and according to the methods recorded in ancient books, they slowly released their own spiritual power, trying to find the resonance frequency of each other's spiritual power. At first, the spiritual power of the two collided with each other, like surging waves hitting the reef, splashing violent spiritual power ripples, causing their blood and qi to surge. But they gritted their teeth and persisted, constantly adjusting. Gradually, the fluctuations of spiritual power began to stabilize, and a wonderful sense of resonance arose in their hearts. As the resonance deepened, the spiritual power around them seemed to be summoned by something, and frantically gathered towards the two of them, forming a spiritual power vortex that tightly wrapped them up.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen felt that the spiritual power in their bodies was like a raging fire that was ignited, and it instantly became vigorous and endless. A hint of surprise flashed in their eyes, and without thinking too much, they immediately injected this powerful spiritual power into the defensive magic circle. In an instant, the magic circle shone brightly, and the originally dim halo seemed to be injected with new vitality, becoming dazzling again. The spiritual runes seemed to come alive, dancing happily in the air, releasing a powerful pressure, forcing the demons to retreat one after another.
The demons seemed to be startled by the sudden change, and the rhythm of their attacks was temporarily disrupted. But soon, they reacted, emitting a sharp and piercing whistle, as if venting their anger, and rushed towards the magic circle again. However, this time, with the blessing of spiritual resonance, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's resistance became more calm. Yun Yao's hands formed seals faster, and each ray of spiritual light seemed to contain a thousand pounds of power, accurately repairing every flaw in the magic circle; Chu Mochen's sword moves became more and more fierce, and every swing seemed to be able to tear the sky and smash the demons close to the magic circle.
Although the demon shadow's attack was still fierce, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's tenacious resistance temporarily stabilized the situation. The two of them were still tense, because they knew that the demon shadow would not give up, and this fierce battle was far from over...
In the night sky, the light of spiritual power and the darkness of the demon shadow intertwined, like a tragic painting of light and darkness. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stood firm in front of the magic circle, like two towering mountains, guarding the last line of defense of the sect. Their clothes rustled under the agitation of spiritual power, their hair fluttered in the wind, their faces were covered with stains of sweat and blood, but the light of perseverance in their eyes never went out. Every time they resisted the attack of the demon shadow, every time they output spiritual power, it was their persistence in their sect and their beliefs in each other.
As time passed, the attack of the demon shadow finally seemed to be a little tired, and its speed and strength were slightly weakened. Yun Yao keenly noticed this change, and a glimmer of hope surged in his heart: "Brother Chu, the attack of the demon shadow seems to be a little weaker. If we work harder, reinforcements may arrive soon!"
Chu Mochen was also invigorated, and swung the sword in his hand more vigorously: "Okay, Yunyao, let's make a concerted effort and completely repel these hateful guys!"
Just as the two were preparing to fight back with all their might, a few bright sword lights suddenly flashed in the night sky in the distance, like meteors piercing through the darkness, rushing towards them with a majestic spiritual power fluctuation. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were delighted, they knew that the reinforcements had finally arrived!
The sword lights were fierce, led by an elder with snow-white hair and a dignified face. He held an ancient immortal sword, and the sword body seemed to flow with galaxies, emitting powerful and steady spiritual power fluctuations. The elder's eyes were like torches, and he saw Yun Yao and Chu Mochen struggling under the siege of the demon shadow. A trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and he shouted angrily: "Evil beast, don't be so rampant!" After that, he swung the immortal sword, and a dazzling sword light was like a long rainbow piercing the sun, slashing towards the demon shadow with the momentum of destroying the world.
The demons felt the powerful threat and screamed in fear, trying to dodge. But the elder's sword was too fast and powerful. Wherever it went, the demons were cut into pieces like paper and dissipated into nothingness. The defensive magic circle finally got a moment of respite, and the light no longer flickered so violently, but became stable.
Afterwards, several other strong men also joined the battle. They each displayed their magical powers. Some cast powerful spells, summoning flames all over the sky, covering the demon shadows and burning them until they howled; some used exquisite swordsmanship, and the demon shadows fell down one after another with flashing sword flowers; others released powerful spiritual power shields to protect Yun Yao, Chu Mochen and others from the sneak attacks of the demon shadows.
With the arrival of reinforcements, the situation on the battlefield was reversed in an instant. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen breathed a sigh of relief, and their tense bodies relaxed slightly. They looked at their fellow disciples who came to support them, and their hearts were full of gratitude. However, they also knew that this battle with the Shadow Demon had just begun, and there were more difficult challenges waiting for them...
At this moment, the night sky was filled with spiritual energy, shouts of killing, and roars of spells. A battle that concerned the survival of the sect was in full swing. With the help of reinforcements, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen rekindled their fighting spirit and prepared for the next battle. They firmly believed that as long as everyone worked together, they would be able to completely repel the Phantom Demon and protect the peace of the sect.
