Chapter 400 The Eve of the Decisive Battle
Chapter 400 The Eve of the Decisive Battle
In a solemn atmosphere, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen led the disciples to the base of the mysterious organization. This is an ancient fortress hidden in the mountains, surrounded by dense forests and filled with fog, giving people a mysterious and dangerous feeling. The walls of the fortress are made of huge black stones, engraved with strange runes, as if telling unknown secrets.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stood outside the stronghold, looking at the gloomy building in front of them, their hearts filled with firm belief. They knew that a decisive battle that would determine the fate of the cultivation world was about to begin, and they were shouldering the responsibility of protecting the sect and safeguarding justice.
"This mission is difficult and dangerous, everyone must be careful." Chu Mochen looked solemn, his eyes swept over each disciple, "Our goal is to completely destroy this mysterious organization, and we must not let their conspiracy succeed."
The disciples nodded one after another, their eyes revealing determination and fearlessness. They knew the importance of this mission and were ready to give everything for the sect and the world of cultivation.
Yun Yao took a deep breath, feeling the surging spiritual power in her body. After a long period of training and fighting, her strength has made a qualitative leap. Now, she is no longer the ignorant girl who just entered the world of cultivation. She turned her head to look at Chu Mochen, and their eyes met, and they saw trust and support in each other's eyes.
"Are you ready?" Yun Yao asked softly.
"Well, let's go together." Chu Mochen nodded slightly, with a determined smile on his face.
At this moment, the gate of the fortress slowly opened, and a black mist filled out from inside. In the mist, some figures could be vaguely seen swaying, their aura was evil and powerful, making people shudder.
"Here it comes!" Yun Yao clenched the sword in her hand. The sword body trembled slightly, as if it was eager to fight.
Members of the mysterious organization filed out one after another, wearing black robes and black veils covering their faces, revealing only pairs of cold eyes. The leader was a tall man with a particularly strong aura, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
"Yun Yao, Chu Mochen, you actually dare to come to my door on your own initiative. You are really overestimating your own abilities." The man's voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from hell.
"You have committed many evil things, and today is your end." Chu Mochen responded fearlessly. His voice was firm and powerful, echoing in the valley.
"Hmph, how shameless. You guys think you can defeat us?" The man sneered and waved his hand, and the members behind him immediately assumed fighting postures.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other, and at the same time, they shouted and led their disciples to rush forward. For a moment, shouts of killing shook the sky, and the two sides started a fierce battle.
The members of the mysterious organization were very powerful and were good at using various dark spells. For a moment, the black light flashed on the battlefield, dazzling people. The disciples of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were not to be outdone. They displayed their own unique skills and fought a desperate battle with the enemy.
Yun Yao's figure was as fast as lightning, and she swung the long sword in her hand, with sword flowers flashing. Wherever she went, the enemies fell to the ground. Her swordsmanship was sharp and exquisite, and each sword contained a powerful spiritual power, making it difficult to defend against.
Chu Mochen cast an earth magic spell, and earth walls instantly appeared around him, blocking the enemy's attack. Then, he put his hands together, muttered something, and the ground suddenly shook, and huge stone pillars broke out from the ground and stabbed at the enemy.
In the battle, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen cooperated well, they looked after each other and dealt with the enemy's attacks together. Whenever Yun Yao was in danger, Chu Mochen would always help her in time; and when Chu Mochen was in trouble, Yun Yao would rush up without hesitation.
However, the mysterious organization was much stronger than they had imagined. As the battle progressed, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen gradually discovered that the enemies seemed endless, coming in waves. Moreover, their dark spells seemed to be able to cooperate with each other to form a powerful attack formation, which gradually put their disciples in trouble.
"We can't go on like this. We must find a way to break their formation." Yun Yao said to Chu Mochen while fending off the enemy's attack.
Chu Mochen nodded, and his eyes swept across the battlefield, trying to find the flaws in the enemy's formation. Suddenly, he found a black crystal in the center of the enemy's formation, which emitted a strange light and seemed to be the core of the entire formation.
"Yao'er, I'm going to destroy the crystal, you help me block the enemy." Chu Mochen pointed at the crystal and said to Yun Yao.
Yun Yao looked at the crystal, then at Chu Mochen, feeling somewhat worried. She knew that it would be very dangerous for Chu Mochen to break through the enemy's encirclement and destroy the crystal. However, she also understood that this was the only way to break the enemy's formation.
"Okay, be careful." Yun Yao gritted her teeth and nodded vigorously.
After speaking, Chu Mochen took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in his body burst out instantly. He performed the "Earth Escape Technique" in the earth magic, and his body instantly disappeared from the spot and rushed towards the center of the enemy's formation.
The enemy discovered Chu Mochen's intention, and several masters immediately surrounded him, trying to stop him. Chu Mochen dodged the enemy's attack, and at the same time used the "Earth Wall Technique" to build an earth wall around himself, temporarily blocking the enemy.
However, the enemy's attacks became more and more fierce, and cracks gradually appeared in the earth wall. Chu Mochen knew that he could not stay here for too long, otherwise he would be trapped by the enemy. He gritted his teeth and performed the "Earth Escape Technique" again, drilled out of the earth wall, and continued to rush towards the crystal.
At this moment, a master from a mysterious organization suddenly rushed out from the side, holding a black dagger in his hand, and stabbed at Chu Mochen. Chu Mochen was unable to dodge and was stabbed in the shoulder by the dagger, and blood instantly stained his clothes red.
"Chu Mochen!" Yun Yao was shocked when she saw this scene. She rushed over desperately, wanting to help Chu Mochen.
However, she was also entangled by the enemy and could not escape. Seeing Chu Mochen injured, Yun Yao was anxious, and a trace of determination flashed in her eyes.
"Break!" Yun Yao suddenly roared, and she used her strongest sword technique, "Phantom Sword Dance". For a moment, countless sword shadows flashed around her and swept towards the enemy.
The enemies were caught off guard by Yun Yao's attack and retreated one after another. Yun Yao took the opportunity to get rid of the enemy's entanglement and rushed towards Chu Mochen.
At this time, Chu Mochen had already arrived in front of the crystal. He ignored the pain in his shoulder, gathered powerful spiritual power in his hands, and slapped the crystal.
"Boom!" With a loud noise, the crystal was instantly shattered by Chu Mochen. As the crystal shattered, the enemy's formation also collapsed instantly, and the black light gradually disappeared.
"Great, the formation has been broken!" Seeing this, the disciples cheered. Their morale was boosted, and they attacked the enemy even more fiercely.
The members of the mysterious organization panicked when they saw the formation was broken. Although they were powerful, they lost the support of the formation and gradually could not withstand the attacks of Yun Yao, Chu Mochen and others.
"Retreat!" The leading man saw that the situation was not good and immediately ordered a retreat. The members of the mysterious organization turned around and fled towards the fortress.
"Don't let them get away!" Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other and chased after them at the same time. They led the disciples of the sect, rushed into the fortress, and continued to fight with the enemy.
The passages in the fortress were intricate and complex, like a maze. The members of the mysterious organization took advantage of the terrain and launched a guerrilla war with Yun Yao, Chu Mochen and others. From time to time, they rushed out of the darkness, launched a surprise attack, and then quickly disappeared.
During the battle, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen discovered that this fortress seemed to hide some unknown secrets. The walls were engraved with strange symbols and patterns, and the air was filled with a mysterious atmosphere.
"There's something wrong with this place. We have to be careful." Yun Yao looked around vigilantly and said to Chu Mochen.
Chu Mochen nodded, he also felt the abnormality of this place. He cast an earth spell to form a shield around himself and Yun Yao to prevent sudden attacks from the enemy.
At this moment, they suddenly heard a low roar, which came from the depths of the fortress and was creepy.
"What's that sound?" Yun Yao frowned, feeling an ominous premonition in her heart.
"I don't know, let's go over and take a look." Chu Mochen clenched his fists and walked towards the direction where the voice came from.
They carefully passed through the passages and finally came to a huge cave. The cave was filled with thick black fog, making it difficult to see what was inside.
"Be careful." Chu Mochen said to Yun Yao, then took the lead and walked into the cave.
Yun Yao followed closely behind Chu Mochen, holding the sword tightly in her hand, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.
After entering the cave, they found a huge stone platform inside, on which was placed a black box. The box was engraved with runes and exuded a strong evil aura.
"What is this?" Yun Yao looked at the box, her heart full of doubts.
"I don't know either, but this box is definitely not simple." Chu Mochen said, his eyes fixed on the box, not daring to relax at all.
At this moment, the box suddenly emitted a strong black light. In the light, a huge figure slowly emerged.
"Oh no, it's a guardian beast!" Yun Yao exclaimed. She immediately recognized the figure. It was a powerful guardian beast that specialized in guarding the secrets of this mysterious organization.
The guardian beast was huge, more than ten meters tall. Its body was covered with black scales, each of which flashed a cold light. Its eyes were like lanterns, emitting a red light that made people shudder.
"Roar!" The guardian beast roared and pounced towards Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. It was extremely fast and arrived in front of them in an instant.
Chu Mochen and Yun Yao quickly retreated, casting their respective spells at the same time, attacking the guardian beast. Chu Mochen cast the "Earth Spike Technique", and huge earth spikes broke out from the ground and stabbed at the guardian beast. Yun Yao cast the "Phantom Sword Dance", and countless sword shadows swept towards the guardian beast.
However, the guardian beast was too powerful, and their attacks did not seem to cause much damage to it. The guardian beast waved its huge claws, smashing the earth spikes and sword shadows one by one, and then continued to pounce on them.
"What should we do? This guardian beast is too powerful." Yun Yao said anxiously, her forehead already covered with sweat.
"Don't panic, let's find a solution together." Chu Mochen said, his eyes scanning the guardian beast, trying to find its weakness.
Suddenly, Chu Mochen discovered that the guardian beast's eyes seemed to be its weakness. He immediately said to Yun Yao, "Yao'er, attack its eyes!"
Yun Yao nodded, and she immediately adjusted the direction of the attack, focusing all the sword shadows on the eyes of the guardian beast.
The guardian beast seemed to realize that its weakness had been discovered, and it quickly protected its eyes with its claws while letting out an angry roar.
"Now!" Chu Mochen seized the opportunity and used the "Earth-Splitting Technique". The ground suddenly split open, forming a huge crack that spread towards the guardian beast.
The guardian beast was unable to dodge and was swallowed by the crack. It struggled in the crack and let out painful roars.
"Success!" Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were overjoyed when they saw this scene. They rushed forward and prepared to give the guardian beast a final blow.
However, just as they approached the crack, the guardian beast suddenly jumped out of the crack. Its body was covered with scars, but its eyes became more ferocious.
"Oh no, it's not dead yet!" Yun Yao exclaimed and quickly stepped back.
The guardian beast pounced on them again, faster and more powerful than before. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen quickly cast spells to resist the guardian beast's attack.
During the fierce battle, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen gradually discovered that the guardian beast's power seemed to be increasing. Their attacks were becoming increasingly difficult to cause damage to it.
"We can't go on like this, we must think of a solution." Chu Mochen said, his face becoming very solemn.
At this moment, Yun Yao suddenly thought of a solution. She said to Chu Mochen, "Mochen, let's use our strongest attack together to lead it to the top of the cave, and then use the collapse of the cave to bury it."
Chu Mochen was moved when he heard Yun Yao's words. He thought this method was feasible, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it!"
After that, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen simultaneously cast their strongest spells. Yun Yao cast the ultimate form of "Phantom Sword Dance" "Sword Shadow Storm", and countless sword shadows formed a huge storm, sweeping towards the guardian beast. Chu Mochen cast "Mountain Collapse and Earth Crack", he raised his hands upwards, and the stones on the ground flew up and smashed towards the guardian beast.
The guardian beast felt their powerful attack and quickly retreated, trying to dodge. However, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's attacks followed it closely, making it unable to escape.
Under the powerful attack, the guardian beast was gradually forced to the top of the cave. Behind it was the solid rock, and there was no way to retreat.
"Now!" Yun Yao and Chu Mochen roared at the same time, and their attacks hit the guardian beast at the same time. The guardian beast screamed, was blown away by the powerful force, and crashed into the top of the cave.
"Boom!" The top of the cave could not withstand the impact of the guardian beast and began to collapse. Huge rocks fell one after another and smashed towards the guardian beast.
The guardian beast tried to struggle to escape, but it was buried by rocks and could not move. As the cave continued to collapse, the guardian beast gradually disappeared under the rocks.
"It's finally over." Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at the collapsed cave and breathed a sigh of relief. They showed tired smiles on their faces. This battle was too difficult.
After dealing with the guardian beast, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen came to the stone platform. They looked at the black box on the stone platform, their hearts full of curiosity. What secrets did this box hide?
Chu Mochen picked up the box carefully and observed the runes on the box carefully. Suddenly, he found that these runes seemed to form a formation. As long as the runes were activated in a certain order, the box could be opened.
Chu Mochen told Yun Yao about his discovery. Yun Yao nodded and said, "Then let's give it a try."
So, Chu Mochen and Yun Yao held their breath and concentrated, activating the runes one by one in the order of the runes. Every time a rune was activated, the light on the box would become brighter, as if a mysterious flame was gradually burning. And the powerful force emanating from the box also became stronger and stronger, impacting the two people's bodies and minds like surging waves.
At this moment, there was a deafening "boom" sound that echoed throughout the cave. The box was finally opened successfully, and in an instant, an extremely powerful light gushed out of the box like a flood that broke through the dam, instantly illuminating the entire cave as bright as day.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stared with their eyes wide open, and looked carefully, only to see an ancient book lying quietly in the middle of the box. The book looked like it had gone through many years, and the cover was a little worn, but the ancient characters engraved on it were still clearly visible. Although they knew nothing about these characters, just by staring at them, they could feel an indescribable mysterious atmosphere coming towards them, which made people feel awe.
Chu Mochen took a deep breath, carefully stretched out his hands, and gently picked up the book. His movements were slow and gentle, as if he was holding a rare treasure in his hands, which would be damaged if he was not careful. When the book fell into his palm, he felt a heavy feeling. Then, he slowly turned the first page of the book and his eyes fell on the words on the page. It was written on it: "This is the secret of the ancient artifact. Those who get it can..." The handwriting behind it was blurred and unrecognizable because of its age. But just the first sentence was enough to make Chu Mochen and Yun Yao's heartbeats accelerate and excited.
