The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack

Chapter 680 The Judgment is Coming

Under the guidance of Sect Master Xingxuan, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stepped into the "Time Peak". Looking up, they were surrounded by clouds and mist. Between the peaks, spiritual energy flowed like silk threads, turning into colorful rays of light, adding a bit of dreamlike color to this world. Pavilions and terraces were scattered in the mountains, and runes flickered on the eaves and brackets, faintly emitting the power of prohibition, guarding this holy place for cultivation.

However, Yun Yao was keenly aware that the Xingxuan Sect disciples who shuttled between the pavilions looked at them with fear and alienation in their eyes. Whenever her eyes met with the disciples, they would quickly look away like a frightened deer, and their steps would unconsciously speed up, as if the two of them were carrying some kind of frightening disaster.

Yun Yao frowned slightly, thinking to herself, "It seems that the Hongmeng bloodline is still a taboo in the upper realm. Even though the Xingxuan Sect Master is polite on the surface, the attitude of these disciples... I'm afraid that the hostility of the upper realm towards us is already deeply rooted."

Chu Mochen also felt the depressing atmosphere. He approached Yun Yao calmly and whispered, "Yao'er, it's better to be careful. There may be undercurrents here." As he spoke, his eyes were like torches, scanning the surroundings vigilantly. He secretly clenched his sword in his hand, and his spiritual power quietly flowed in his meridians, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.

At this moment, the anxious voice of the system's little light man suddenly sounded in Yun Yao's mind: "Oh no, host! I don't know what kind of power the Heavenly Dao of the upper realm has used, and it is suppressing the origin of Hongmeng in all directions. My detection function is blocked, and I can't provide you with the map information of the upper realm!" The figure of the little light man flickered in Yun Yao's sea of consciousness, looking weak and panicked.

Yun Yao's heart sank. She knew that in this strange and dangerous upper world, the lack of a map would undoubtedly be fatal. Without a map to guide them, they would be like blind people groping in the dark, and could fall into the enemy's trap at any time. But she looked firm, quickly calmed down, and responded: "Little Light Man, don't panic, let's try to find a clue to break through the predicament first."

In order to find out the truth and find a way to fight against the suppression of the Heavenly Dao in the upper realm, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen decided to carefully explore the Time Peak. They walked along the winding mountain path. The spiritual plants on the roadside were suppressed by the Heavenly Dao, and their branches and leaves drooped. The light was dim and no longer had the vitality of the past. Along the way, the two carefully avoided the patrolling disciples and walked towards the depths of the peak.

Yun Yao suddenly stopped walking when she reached a remote valley. She fixed her eyes on the steep cliff at the end of the valley, where she could faintly hear the fluctuation of spiritual energy, which was completely different from the suppressed and dead air around her.

"Chen, there's something strange over there, let's go take a look." Yun Yao said softly, and her figure flashed, and she was the first to rush towards the mountain wall. Chu Mochen followed closely behind, and the two came to the mountain wall. Yun Yao raised her hand and sacrificed the power of Hongmeng. In the flashing light, a hidden stone door slowly emerged.

On the stone door, runes intertwined and there were many restrictions, but under the impact of Yun Yao's Hongmeng power, it gradually loosened. With a dull sound, the stone door slowly opened, and a stale and decayed smell came to the face.

The two stepped into the stone door and saw a spacious secret room inside. The secret room was filled with various ancient book fragments. The yellowed pages exuded the vicissitudes of time. Yun Yao looked through these fragments eagerly, hoping to find clues about the heavenly way of the upper world, the Hongmeng tribe, and the fight against oppression.

Suddenly, a sketch came into Yun Yao's eyes, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated. The sketch was the "Trans-Spacetime Particle Collider" that she was very familiar with in the modern laboratory! The complex and precise structure, the familiar energy lines, every detail evoked her memories of her previous life.

"Chen, look! How could this appear in the upper realm?" Yun Yao handed the sketch to Chu Mochen in shock, her fingers trembling slightly.

Chu Mochen took the sketch and examined it carefully, frowning: "This thing is definitely not from the upper realm. Look at the marked location..." His eyes followed the mark on the picture and he muttered: "It's actually in the 'Heavenly Dao Temple' in the center of the upper realm!"

The two looked at each other, and both saw shock and confusion in each other's eyes. At this moment, a subtle spiritual power fluctuation suddenly came from the secret room, as if someone was secretly spying. Chu Mochen reacted quickly, grabbed Yun Yao's hand, and whispered: "Yao'er, let's go! It's not safe here."

The two hurriedly left the secret room and returned along the way they came. As soon as they turned out of the valley, Chu Mochen's fingertips suddenly felt a slight vibration, which was a unique warning after their spiritual veins coexisted.

"There is an ambush ahead, be careful!" Chu Mochen's eyes flashed, and he protected Yun Yao behind him. His spiritual power burst out instantly, forming a defensive shield in front of him.

Yun Yao also quickly mobilized the power of Hongmeng, and the light around her body shone. Three masked men jumped out from the corner, with ghostly figures and cold breath. Without saying a word, they raised their hands and cast the "Three Yin Heart Devouring Curse" of the Blood Evil Sect. Three black lights rushed towards Yun Yao and the others like poisonous snakes.

Yun Yao snorted coldly, raised her hand calmly, and the Hongmeng Sky Ring emerged, emitting a brilliant light. The moment the three black lights touched the Sky Ring, they were like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun, being devoured into powder and dissipated into nothingness.

The three masked men were horrified when they saw this. They obviously didn't expect Yun Yao to resolve their attack so easily. They looked at each other, unwilling to give in, but afraid of Yun Yao's strength. After hesitating for a moment, they turned around and fled, disappearing into the mountains and forests in an instant.

"Want to run? Not that easy!" Chu Mochen shouted angrily and wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Yun Yao.

“Chen, stop chasing them. They are just minions, and there must be a mastermind behind them. The most urgent task is to find out the secrets of the Heavenly Dao Palace and how to deal with the upcoming judgment.” Yun Yao’s eyes were firm, with wisdom and determination in them.

Chu Mochen nodded slightly and suppressed his anger: "Yao'er is right, let's go back to our residence first and discuss it carefully."

The two returned to their residence at Shiguang Peak. As soon as they stepped into the yard, the figure of Xingxuan Sect Master appeared at the door. He had a solemn expression, holding a file in his hand. When he saw Yunyao and the others, he walked over quickly.

"Saintess, the situation is not good." The leader of Xingxuan Sect said worriedly, "The Ten Thousand Immortals Conference was held ahead of schedule, and the Heavenly Dao Palace has issued a warrant for your arrest, accusing you of attempting to revive the Hongmeng Clan and disrupting the order of heaven and earth. Now the three sects of the upper realm are colluding with the remnants of the Blood Evil Sect and want to harm you at the conference. You must be careful."

Yun Yao took the file and quickly glanced through it, her heart burning with anger: "The so-called crime is just a false accusation by them! I can't just sit there and wait for death. It's impossible."

Chu Mochen clenched his fists, his eyes flashing coldly: "If anyone dares to touch Yao'er, I will make them pay a heavy price!"

The leader of Xingxuan Sect sighed and said, "Although I want to help you, the situation in the upper realm is complicated, and our Xingxuan Sect is also facing a lot of pressure. In the next few days, try not to go out. I will arrange for disciples to guard nearby. If you need anything, please feel free to contact me."

After saying that, Sect Master Xingxuan left behind some defensive magic weapons and elixirs and left in a hurry.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen returned to the house and fell into deep thought. After a long while, Yun Yao raised her head with a determined look in her eyes: "Chen, no matter what, I will not give up. I will definitely break the darkness and injustice of this upper world. Since they want to judge me at the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference, I will go to meet them and expose their ugly faces!"

Chu Mochen walked to Yun Yao, gently held her hand, and gave her strength and support: "Yao'er, I will always be with you, through life and death."

In the following days, Yun Yao studied the fragments of ancient books she brought out from the secret room day and night, trying to find a way to break the suppression of the Heavenly Dao and deal with the trial. She combined modern scientific and technological knowledge with the cultivation method, repeatedly deduced, and her forehead was covered with sweat, but she never stopped for a moment.

Chu Mochen assisted her from the side, protecting her and providing spiritual support, while keeping a close eye on the movements outside the Shiguang Peak. In the courtyard, the atmosphere was solemn, with only the occasional rustling sound of Yun Yao turning pages and the whispered conversation between the two.

As the date of the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference approaches, the atmosphere in the upper realm becomes increasingly tense. Spiritual pressure often roars through the sky, and strong men from various sects appear one after another, gathering in the direction of the Heavenly Dao Palace. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen are also preparing intensively, waiting for the duel that will decide their fate...

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is the day of the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference. On this day, the sky above the Heavenly Dao Palace was shining brightly, and runes were flowing, forming a series of powerful defensive prohibitions. In front of the palace gate, the three sect leaders sat high in the clouds, and behind them were the elite disciples of their respective sects, all of whom had a powerful aura and cold eyes.

The remnants of the Blood Evil Sect mingled in the crowd, hiding their heads and showing their tails, secretly waiting for the opportunity to take action. In the square, cultivators from all sides gathered and talked a lot. They looked at the Heavenly Dao Hall with curiosity or fear, and they all wanted to see how this trial concerning the fate of the upper world would end.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen, dressed in white, stood side by side and walked slowly towards the Heavenly Dao Hall. Their figures were particularly eye-catching under the light, like two bright stars, piercing through the darkness and facing the unknown storm.

Along the way, many monks cast strange looks at her, some mocking, some fearful, and some admiring. But Yun Yao ignored them, her eyes firmly fixed on the Heavenly Dao Hall, and she secretly said in her heart: "Today is the day to reveal the truth!"

The moment they stepped into the Tiandao Palace Square, a strong pressure came over them, trying to suppress them. Yun Yao snorted coldly, and the power of Hongmeng burst out, dispelling all the pressure. She looked around with cold eyes, staring at the three sect leaders across the air, showing no weakness.

At this time, the Heavenly Dao Monument slowly rose into the air and hovered in the center of the square. The monument was shining with light, reflecting Yun Yao's so-called "crimes": "He who possesses the blood of Hongmeng and attempts to subvert the Heavenly Dao must be killed!" The glaring handwriting was like a sharp blade, trying to nail Yun Yao to the pillar of shame.

Seeing this, Yun Yao laughed in anger: "Is this your method? You confuse right and wrong! Today, I will let everyone see who the real culprit is!"

After saying that, she took a step forward and walked towards the Heavenly Dao Monument. The power of Hongmeng surged around her, causing the sky and earth to change color and the wind and clouds to stir. A thrilling contest began...
