Chapter 488 Turning the Tide of Battle

In the stronghold hall, Gu Jiuchen and a group of Hexingmen disciples all looked gloomy.

They had already left the entrance to the secret realm and had arrived at this place. Although they had successfully destroyed the stronghold of the Tiger and Leopard Sect, they did not expect that they would be chased by the strong men of the Tiger and Leopard Sect so soon.

More than 20 strong men surrounded the hall, and not even a mosquito could escape.

"Junior Brother Gu, this is dangerous!"

A strong man in the late Soul Sect said to Gu Jiuchen with a terribly gloomy face. In his mind, he was thinking about how to solve this crisis.

After thinking about it, they could only let go and fight a big battle, delay time, and wait for the strong men of the Hexingmen to come to support them, and they would naturally be able to leave the hall.

And for this hall, Gu Jiuchen had already arranged a defensive formation. Even if the other party had a strong man in the Soul King realm, they would not be able to break in for a while.

Gu Jiuchen silently calculated the time in his heart and waited for the arrival of support. He knew that the most important thing now was to stabilize the situation and not let the other side find their flaws.

"Everyone, hold the formation and don't act rashly!" Gu Jiuchen shouted in a deep voice.

Everyone nodded and stood still, ready to deal with the upcoming battle. The hall was filled with a tense atmosphere, and everyone's heartbeat seemed to speed up a bit.

At this moment, a low sound of footsteps came from outside the hall, and then a figure flashed in.

It was Hu Wei, the leader of the Tiger and Leopard Sect!

Gu Jiuchen frowned slightly. This Hu Wei was powerful and was a top master in the Tiger and Leopard Sect. He was not surprised that Hu Wei would go out in person. After all, the other party had lost an important stronghold and would definitely send a strong man to chase.

Hu Wei's eyes swept over the people in the hall and sneered: "Gu Jiuchen, you Hexingmen are asking for trouble! If you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"

Gu Jiuchen looked at Hu Wei coldly and replied without showing any weakness: "We Hexingmen are not afraid of difficulties! Hubaomen not only bullied our Hexingmen, but also bullied innocent people. Today I will seek justice for the people!"

Hu Wei was furious and showed a fierce expression: "Bullshit! You little bugs from the Xingmen dare to go against my Hubaomen! I want you to taste what despair is!"

As soon as the voice fell, Hu Wei's momentum burst out instantly. He flashed and came in front of Gu Jiuchen in an instant, punching Gu Jiuchen.

Gu Jiuchen's face changed slightly. He didn't expect Hu Wei to be so cruel and attack without hesitation. He moved his mind, bursting out his soul power, and met Hu Wei's fist with both hands. With a loud bang, the fists of the two men collided fiercely, and a terrible wave of air suddenly aroused, overturning all the furniture in the hall.

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect Gu Jiuchen to be able to withstand Hu Wei's punch, and they immediately admired his strength even more.

Hu Wei's eyes flashed with surprise, but soon he regained his composure. He sneered and disappeared instantly.

Gu Chen's heart tightened, and he immediately became alert and searched for Hu Wei's figure everywhere.

At this moment, a strong breath came from the other side of the hall. Gu Jiuchen immediately turned around and saw that Hu Wei had appeared behind him, with a sharp sword in his hand.

Gu Jiuchen's face changed, and he hurriedly dodged, but Hu Wei's sword was extremely sharp, as if there was nowhere to hide.

At the critical moment, a figure suddenly flashed out and blocked Gu Jiuchen in front of him.

It was the chief elder of the Hexing Sect, the Seven-Star Sword Immortal! The Seven-Star Sword Immortal raised his sword to meet the enemy, and the sword energy was crisscrossed, and he started a fierce battle with Hu Wei.

Seeing this, Gu Jiuchen secretly rejoiced in his heart, and at the same time, he was more determined to fight.

The battle in the hall became more and more intense, with sword energy crisscrossing and the sound of energy collision. Gu Jiuchen and other disciples of the Crane Gate also joined the battle and fought with the strong men of the Tiger and Leopard Gate.

As time passed, Gu Jiuchen could feel that the reinforcements of the Crane Gate were about to arrive. They only needed to hold on for a moment to completely turn the tide of the battle.

Just as their morale was high, the hall suddenly changed. A dark energy emerged from the ground and instantly enveloped the hall.

Everyone's face changed drastically. They could feel the horror of this energy, as if it was going to swallow them.

Gu Jiuchen held the sword tightly in his hand. He took a deep breath, and his soul power burst out, ready to fight against the dark energy. At this moment, a figure emerged from the darkness, exuding a majestic aura that made people palpitate.

It was the head elder of the Hexing Sect, the legendary Crane God!

As soon as the Crane God appeared, the dark energy began to reverse and quickly dissipated.

Everyone was amazed. The appearance of the Crane God rekindled their hope. Gu Jiuchen felt the powerful power emanating from the Crane God, and his heart was full of awe and worship.

The Crane God's eyes were like lightning, and he swept around the hall, and then said to everyone: "Don't be afraid. Although the power of darkness is strong, we have the power of faith and justice. As long as we work together, we will be able to overcome all difficulties!"

After hearing the words of the Crane God, everyone's morale was boosted, and they launched a counterattack. Gu Jiuchen followed the Crane God closely, waving the sword in his hand, and launched a fierce confrontation with the dark energy.

The sword energy was crisscrossed, the energy fluctuated continuously, and the hall was in chaos. Gu Jiuchen felt the power in his body constantly increasing. He seemed to be one with the sword, and every time he swung the sword, he brought endless power.

Time passed and the battle lasted for a long time. The power of everyone gradually suppressed the dark energy, and light returned to the hall.

Just when everyone thought victory was within sight, dark energy suddenly emerged again, covering the entire hall. This time, the dark force is even more powerful and irresistible.

Everyone's expressions became solemn, and they launched their strongest attacks one after another, trying to defeat the dark energy. The Crane God also joined the battle. His sword moves were like the coming of a god from heaven, and every slash carried the aura of destroying everything.

Gu Jiuchen felt that the soul power in his body was constantly draining, and the dark energy seemed to be devouring his power. He gritted his teeth, and all the soul power in his body burned. He was determined to use his last strength to fight against the dark power to the end.

Just when Gu Jiuchen was exhausted, a bright light suddenly rose from his body. The light exudes a warm aura, driving away the dark energy.

Everyone looked at the light on Gu Jiuchen in surprise, and they felt an extremely powerful force. Gu Jiuchen's body began to change, his eyes turned bright blue, and mysterious patterns appeared on his body.

Crane God looked at Gu Jiuchen with bright eyes, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He took a deep breath and then said to everyone: "Gu Jiuchen, you are the legendary Heavenly Soul Master! You have the power to resist the power of darkness!"

After hearing He Shen's words, Gu Jiuchen was filled with shock and excitement. He finally understood why he became one with the sword and why he could resist the erosion of dark energy.

He held the sword in his hand tightly and looked firmly at the dark energy. He was determined to use his own power to protect the safety of the Crane-shaped Gate and defeat the conspiracy of the Tiger and Leopard Gate.

The battle in the hall continued, with Gu Jiuchen leading everyone in a final desperate fight against dark energy. His sword moves became more and more fierce, and every swing of his sword was accompanied by a burst of powerful energy.

In the end, Gu Jiuchen and everyone successfully defeated the dark energy and restored the light of the hall. They cheered to celebrate the victory, and Gu Jiuchen felt his strength increase again.

When everyone saw the appearance of the Crane God, they all breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that with the addition of the Crane God, victory was in sight.

Crane God looked at Gu Jiuchen, smiled and said: "Jiuchen, you did a good job, I was late."

Gu Jiuchen showed a trace of gratitude on his face. He knew that with the protection of the Crane God, they would overcome all difficulties. Under the leadership of the Crane God, the disciples of the Crane-shaped Sect launched another fierce attack, and the strong men of the Hubao Sect were defeated one after another.

Soon, the supporting Crane Sect members also arrived at the main hall. Seeing that the battle situation had reversed, they joined the battle one after another.

In the end, the powerful men of the Tiger and Leopard Clan were completely defeated, and the hall returned to tranquility.

Gu Jiuchen looked at the mess in the hall and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. He knew that the Crane-shaped Gate finally turned the situation around and won this hard-fought battle.
