Chapter 345: In Trouble
Chapter 345: In Trouble
At dawn, the soft light penetrated the thin clouds and sprinkled on the smoke-filled battlefield of the mysterious organization's headquarters. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stood side by side, in front of them were disciples from various sects fighting hard, and behind them were the ruins of the war.
The noise of the battle was deafening, the shouts of killing and the sounds of weapons colliding intertwined to form a cruel war song. The attack of the mysterious organization became more and more fierce, and wave after wave of enemies in black robes and with ferocious faces came like a tide. Their spiritual power was surging, and it was obvious that they were all elite.
Yun Yao tightly grasped the long sword in her hand, and the sword body flashed with cold light, which was a sign of spiritual power infusion. She looked at the battlefield with a cold gaze, secretly assessing the situation in her heart. Chu Mochen beside her also had a solemn expression. The long spear in his hand was like a dragon swimming in the sea. Every time he stabbed, there was a whistling sound of wind, which sent several approaching enemies flying. But even so, the number of enemies did not decrease.
"Yun Yao, we can't go on like this. Their support is endless and our disciples can't hold on any longer!" Chu Mochen shouted loudly, his voice drowning out the noise on the battlefield.
Yun Yao nodded slightly. She naturally saw the critical situation. At this moment, many of their disciples were injured and fell to the ground, and their blood dyed the ground red. Some disciples had exhausted their spiritual power and could only rely on their last will to mechanically resist the enemy's attacks with the weapons in their hands; others were hit by the enemy's spells and screamed in pain.
"We can't retreat! If we retreat, all our efforts today will be in vain, and they will have the opportunity to counterattack and endanger more innocent people!" Yun Yao responded with gritted teeth. She knew in her heart that this battle was related to the safety of the cultivation world. If she retreated, the mysterious organization would become even more unscrupulous.
At the moment when the two were talking, a black shadow rushed over from the flank. It was a master of a mysterious organization. He was wielding a pair of huge battle axes in his hands. The axe blades were flashing with a strange black light, and were obviously coated with poison. This person had a clear goal and rushed straight towards Yun Yao, obviously wanting to behead the enemy first and disrupt their formation.
Yun Yao's eyes were stern, and she dodged the opponent's powerful axe, and at the same time, she swung out the long sword in her hand, and a sharp sword energy slashed at the opponent's throat. The master was not in a hurry, and he easily blocked the sword energy with his axe, and then he swung his axe back, with a whistling sound, towards Yun Yao's head. Yun Yao used her body skills, retreated a few steps like a ghost, tapped the ground with her toes, and jumped up with the force, drawing a graceful arc in the air, and at the same time, the long sword in her hand turned over and stabbed the enemy's chest from top to bottom.
The two exchanged dozens of moves in an instant. Yun Yao relied on her agility and exquisite swordsmanship to deal with this powerful enemy, but the opponent was indeed very strong, and each attack was powerful enough to make her arms numb.
On the other side, Chu Mochen was also in a tough fight. Several magicians from a mysterious organization formed a magic circle in the distance, and black magic beams shot at him like poisonous snakes. Chu Mochen shook his spear, and a flower of guns danced in the air, scattering those beams one after another. However, before he could catch his breath, another group of close combat masters rushed up. They cooperated tacitly, one attacked the upper plate, one attacked the lower plate, and the one in the middle waited for an opportunity to release strange spells to interfere with Chu Mochen's sight.
Chu Mochen shouted angrily, and his spiritual power burst out, pushing the surrounding enemies back several steps. He flashed and rushed into the enemy group like lightning, his spear like a dragon out of the sea, instantly stabbing down several enemies. But there were too many enemies, and as soon as one group fell, more came to replace them.
The situation on the battlefield was getting worse, and their defense line was constantly being compressed. Some young disciples began to show fear, and their fighting rhythm gradually became flustered, and many flaws appeared. Seeing this, Yun Yao was extremely anxious. She knew that she had to do something to stabilize the morale of the army, otherwise this battle would be lost.
"Everyone, stay calm! Don't panic! We are fighting to protect the world of cultivation. If you retreat today, you will never have peace in the future!" Yun Yao used all her spiritual power and shouted loudly. Her voice resounded throughout the battlefield and reached the ears of every disciple.
Encouraged by Yun Yao, the disciples cheered up a little, grasped their weapons again, and gritted their teeth to persevere. However, the enemy's attack did not stop at all, but became more crazy.
Suddenly, a sinister laugh came from behind the mysterious organization, and then a suffocating spiritual power wave spread. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's hearts tightened, they knew that the opponent's real strong man was about to take action.
An old man in a blood-red robe slowly rose into the air, holding a glowing staff in his hand. The gem on the top of the staff flashed a strange red light, as if it could absorb people's souls. The old man looked at the battlefield with cold eyes, and finally fell on Yun Yao and Chu Mochen.
"Hmph, two ignorant brats, how dare you come and mess up my good deeds. Today, you will all die here!" The old man snorted coldly, and his voice echoed over the battlefield like thunder.
After saying that, he waved the staff in his hand, and a huge blood-red spiritual power beam shot towards Yun Yao and Chu Mochen like a rainbow piercing the sun. Wherever the beam passed, the air was burned and sizzled, and a deep gully was plowed out on the ground in an instant.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other, and saw determination in each other's eyes. They simultaneously activated their spiritual power, concentrating all their strength on the weapons in their hands.
"Together!" Yun Yao shouted delicately, and stood side by side with Chu Mochen. The weapons in their hands shone brightly, and a dazzling light curtain rose instantly, heading towards the blood-red beam of light.
"Boom!" With a loud noise, it was as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was splitting apart. The two powerful spiritual powers collided with each other, bursting out with dazzling light, blinding people. The huge impact force spread in all directions, and both the enemy and our side on the battlefield were blown away. Many people were injured and fell to the ground, and the screams of pain were endless.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were not spared either. They were knocked back by the impact, with blood oozing from the corners of their mouths. Most of their spiritual power was consumed by this attack, and their bodies also suffered serious internal injuries.
"Hahaha, that's all? Your resistance is meaningless, just prepare to die!" The old man laughed wildly upon seeing this.
Yun Yao wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her eyes burning with an unyielding fire: "Don't even think about it! We will never give up!"
At this time, the situation on the battlefield has reached a critical juncture. The casualties of their own disciples were heavy, less than half of them could continue to fight, and most of them were exhausted and exhausted. Although the mysterious organization also suffered losses, it still had an absolute advantage with its continuous support.
In this desperate situation, Yun Yao suddenly heard a system prompt in her mind: "Host, in critical moments, you can activate the hidden skill 'Spiritual Guardian'. This skill can temporarily increase the spiritual power recovery speed of you and your teammates, and enhance defense, but there will be a period of weakness after using it. Do you want to activate it?"
Yun Yao was delighted and chose to open it without hesitation. Instantly, a soft light emanated from her body, covering Chu Mochen and the remaining disciples beside her. Everyone felt a warm current flowing into their bodies, and their exhausted spiritual power began to slowly recover, and the injuries on their bodies seemed to be no longer so painful.
"Everyone hold on! We still have a chance!" Yun Yao shouted again.
With the blessing of this skill, the morale of the disciples was greatly boosted, and they cheered up again and fought a desperate battle with the enemy. However, Yun Yao knew in his heart that this was only a temporary relief of the crisis. If they could not find a way to defeat the enemy as soon as possible, they would eventually be doomed.
Chu Mochen approached Yun Yao and whispered, "Yun Yao, this is not a solution. We have to think of a way to break out. Let's inform the sect of the situation here and ask for support."
Yun Yao nodded slightly, and quickly scanned the battlefield, trying to find the enemy's weakness. Suddenly, she found that the spiritual power transmission array behind the mysterious organization seemed to be their key. As long as this array was destroyed, the enemy's reinforcement would be cut off.
"Chu Mochen, do you see the spiritual power transmission array over there? Let's try to rush over and destroy it!" Yun Yao said, pointing at the magic array that was flashing with light in the distance.
Chu Mochen looked in the direction of her finger, his eyes lit up: "Okay, let's do it! But it's not easy to rush over, there must be many obstacles along the way."
“Now that things have come to this, we have to give it a try no matter how difficult it is! We will cover our disciples’ breakout and advance towards the magic circle!” Yun Yao said resolutely.
The two men discussed and started to act. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen rushed to the front, clearing a bloody path for the disciples. They used all their skills, and every move was full of determination to kill.
Yun Yao swung her sword, her sword energy was everywhere, enemies fell down one after another. She was agile, moving through the enemy group like a loach, avoiding the enemy's fatal attacks. Chu Mochen's spear was like a dragon, opening and closing, and each shot could send several enemies flying, sharing the pressure for Yun Yao.
Under their leadership, the disciples advanced towards the spiritual energy transmission array with difficulty. However, the enemy also noticed their intention and began to surround them frantically. Spiritual energy barriers were erected one after another, trying to block their way.
Yun Yao's eyes fixed upon seeing this, and the sword in her hand suddenly shone brightly. She used the unique skill "Qingfeng Poyun Sword" rewarded by the system, and an extremely sharp sword energy whizzed out like a tornado, directly breaking through the spiritual barrier in front.
"Charge!" Yun Yao shouted and led the charge forward.
However, just as they were about to approach the spiritual energy transmission array, the mysterious old man attacked again. He flashed and instantly appeared in front of Yun Yao and the others. He waved his staff and a black spiritual energy vortex appeared out of thin air, enveloping them.
"Want to destroy the magic circle? Not that easy!" the old man sneered.
Yun Yao and the others were trapped in the vortex, and they felt a huge suction force pulling them, as if their bodies were about to be torn apart. Their spiritual power also became chaotic and difficult to mobilize in this vortex.
"What should we do?" a disciple shouted in panic.
Yun Yao gritted her teeth and tried to break free from the vortex. She secretly activated the power of the system in her mind, looking for a way to break it. Suddenly, she found that the spiritual power in the center of the vortex was the weakest. As long as she concentrated her strength to attack there, she might be able to break the deadlock.
"Everyone listen to my command, gather your spiritual power to one point and attack the center of the vortex!" Yun Yao shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, the disciples endured the discomfort in their bodies, mobilized the remaining spiritual power, and attacked the center of the vortex. Chu Mochen also fully cooperated, the spear in his hand shone brightly, and he injected all his spiritual power into it, integrating it with the attacks of everyone.
"Boom!" With a loud noise, the spiritual energy vortex was finally broken by the joint attack of everyone. Yun Yao and others took the opportunity to rush out and ran towards the spiritual energy transmission array.
But before they could catch their breath, a large number of masters from the mysterious organization surrounded them again. This time, they formed a tight encirclement, trapping Yun Yao and others in it, making it impossible for them to escape.
Yun Yao looked around, feeling a surge of despair in her heart. They had tried their best, but were still in deep trouble. All the disciples were injured, and their spiritual power was running low, while the enemy was still as fierce as wolves and tigers, staring at them with eager eyes.
But even so, Yun Yao's eyes still showed no sign of retreat. She held her sword tightly, stood beside Chu Mochen, and prepared to face the final battle of life and death.
"Chu Mochen, if we die in battle here today, will you have any regrets?" Yun Yao asked softly.
Chu Mochen shook his head slightly, with a determined smile on his face: "I have no regrets about fighting alongside you, whether it's life or death."
Yun Yao felt warm in her heart. She turned to look at the disciples around her who also had resolute faces and shouted, "Good! Although we are in a desperate situation today, we will fight for justice and for the peace of the cultivation world! Even if we die in battle, we will make them pay a heavy price!"
The disciples shouted in unison, their morale was low but their fighting spirit was undiminished. They held their weapons tightly, waiting for the final charge.
At this critical moment, there was a commotion on the other side of the battlefield. Yun Yao and the others looked over and saw a mysterious force rushing into the enemy camp like a gust of wind. They were dressed in white and agile, and wherever they went, the enemies fell one after another. The leader was even more powerful. He wielded the sword in his hand with great vigor, and each sword could knock down several masters of the mysterious organization.
"It's help!" someone shouted in surprise.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other, their eyes full of surprise and confusion. They didn't know where this mysterious power came from, but it was undoubtedly a ray of hope for them at this moment.
"No matter who they are, let's meet up with them first and defeat the enemy together!" Yun Yao made a prompt decision.
After that, she and Chu Mochen led the disciples and rushed towards the mysterious force. In this chaotic battlefield, the two teams gradually approached each other, hand in hand, and fought against the mysterious organization together. And this battle that was in trouble finally ushered in a turning point...
