Chapter 694: Flames Burn the Heart, Fighting Bones Forge the Soul
With the death of the leader of Tiandao Sect, a heavy sense of oppression seemed to dissipate from heaven and earth, but the cruelty of the battlefield did not reduce in the slightest.
Although the disciples of Tianxian Sect had gained the upper hand, everyone's face was full of fatigue and determination. They knew that true peace had not yet come, and only by completely eliminating the remnants of Tiandao Sect could the continent return to peace.
Gu Jiuchen stood on the ruins, his eyes like torches, scanning the surroundings. His clothes were stained red with blood, but his eyes were brighter, as if he could see through all the falsehoods in the world.
Ye Linglong stood beside him, the emerald green sword in her hand trembled slightly, and the green flame on the tip of the sword jumped continuously, which was her unyielding fighting spirit and desire for peace.
"Linglong, although we won, the battle is not over yet." Gu Jiuchen said in a deep voice, with unquestionable determination in his voice.
Ye Linglong nodded, and the two smiled at each other. Without saying much, they understood each other's intentions. They simultaneously took a step forward, heading towards the last unknown area deep in the Tiandao Sect.
Deep in the Tiandao Sect, there is an ancient altar hidden, which is the source of power left by the powerful men of the Tiandao Sect.
At this moment, on the altar, several elders of the Tiandao Sect are gathered here. They look solemn, and their hands quickly form seals, trying to use the power of the altar for a final counterattack.
"Hmph, a mere ant wants to change his fate?" Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong rushed into the altar one after another like two lightning bolts, and suddenly, the whole space trembled.
"Gu Jiuchen, don't be arrogant! Today is the end of you and the Tianxian Sect!" An elder of the Tiandao Sect shouted angrily, waved his hands, and the light on the altar was bright. A stream of ancient and powerful spiritual power surged out, turning into ferocious beast shadows, and pounced on the two.
Gu Jiuchen snorted coldly, unsheathed his long sword, and the sword light was like a dragon, and he fought fiercely with those beast shadows.
Every time the sword was swung, it was accompanied by a deafening roar, and the space seemed to be torn apart.
Ye Linglong assisted on the side, and the green long sword danced, and the green flames entangled like vines, burning the beast shadows one by one.
However, this was just the beginning.
As the battle deepened, the power on the altar became more violent, and more beast shadows and spiritual power storms emerged, surrounding the two.
The disciples of the Tianxian Sect also poured in and fought fiercely with the elders of the Tiandao Sect.
In the battle, both sides suffered heavy casualties. The disciples of the Tianxian Sect repelled the offensive of the Tiandao Sect again and again with their firm beliefs and unyielding will.
The elders of the Tiandao Sect, relying on the power of the altar, made their final struggle.
Just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, an unprecedented powerful force suddenly erupted on the altar.
That power contained the will and obsession of the strong men of the Tiandao Sect, as if to pull all living beings into an endless cycle of reincarnation.
"Not good! This is the forbidden technique of Tiandao Sect, retreat quickly!" Gu Jiuchen's face changed drastically. He knew the horror of this power. Once trapped in it, it would be difficult to escape.
However, Ye Linglong did not retreat. She held the long sword tightly, and a look of determination flashed in her eyes: "Jiuchen, today I will go to life and death with you, without regrets!"
After saying that, she moved her body and turned into a green meteor, rushing straight towards the power.
Gu Jiuchen was shocked when he saw this, but then he also understood Ye Linglong's intention. He took a deep breath, also urged all his spiritual power, followed Ye Linglong, and rushed into the core of the power.
The two faced the phantoms and attacks of countless powerful people from the Tiandao Sect in the core of the power.
They fought side by side, and the sword light and spiritual power intertwined into a huge net. Every collision was accompanied by a deafening roar and dazzling light.
At this moment of life and death, Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong were unusually calm.
They knew that this battle was not only for the honor of the sect and the peace of innocent lives, but also for their own beliefs and pursuits.
Finally, after countless confrontations and collisions, the two found the flaw of that power.
Gu Jiuchen roared, and the long sword turned into thousands of sword shadows, directly tearing the power apart.
Ye Linglong took the opportunity to swing the emerald long sword and completely destroyed the forbidden technique on the altar.
As the forbidden technique collapsed, the light on the altar gradually dissipated, and the phantoms of the powerful men of the Tiandao Sect also turned into a little spiritual light and dissipated between heaven and earth. The elders of the Tiandao Sect fell down one after another under the impact of this force and could no longer get up.
Deep in the Tiandao Sect, under the ancient altar, the air seemed to solidify, leaving only heavy breathing and occasional spiritual power fluctuations.
Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong stood side by side on the broken stone steps, their figures appeared particularly firm in the dim light and shadow.
Around, the disciples of Tianxian Sect and the elders of Tiandao Sect were in a standoff, and the eyes of both sides were full of determination and unyielding.
"Linglong, today, you and I will settle this eternal grudge together." Gu Jiuchen's voice was low and powerful, and the long sword in his hand flashed cold light in the weak light, which was his desire for victory and his persistence in peace.
Ye Linglong smiled slightly, and there was both tenderness and determination in that smile: "Jiuchen, whether you live or die, I will be with you."
She gently patted the emerald green long sword in her hand, and the sword seemed to feel the will of its master, and the green flames suddenly surged, illuminating the entire space.
With an order, the two sides finally broke out in the most intense battle.
The disciples of Tianxian Sect rushed to the elders of Tiandao Sect like a tide. They were agile and their swords were shining like weaving. Every strike contained their persistence in justice and anger towards the enemy.
The elders of Tiandao Sect, with the remaining power of the altar, released more powerful spells in an attempt to make a final resistance.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, as if even the heaven and earth were trembling for this battle.
Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong rushed to the front line. Their swordsmanship had reached perfection. Every confrontation was accompanied by deafening roars and dazzling light.
Gu Jiuchen's swordsmanship was fierce and unmatched, and the sword light was like a dragon. Wherever he passed, he was invincible; while Ye Linglong's swordsmanship was agile and elegant, and the green flames were entwined like vines, burning the enemies one by one.
However, the elders of Tiandao Sect were no ordinary people. With their rich combat experience and profound cultivation, they resolved the offensives of Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong again and again.
The two sides fought back and forth, and the whole battlefield was shrouded in flames and storms.
As time went on, the battle became more and more tragic. Although the disciples of Tianxian Sect were brave and fearless, they gradually became powerless in the face of the powerful magic power of the elders of Tiandao Sect and the blessing of the altar.
The blood dyed the earth red, and the wailing sounded one after another. The whole battlefield seemed to have turned into a purgatory on earth.
At this time, Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong joined forces again. They knew that only by completely destroying the altar could the battle be completely ended.
So, the two of them simultaneously urged their whole body spiritual power and launched a final charge towards the altar.
Their speed was so fast that it was like two lightning bolts breaking through the sky and rushed under the altar in an instant.
However, how could the elders of Tiandao Sect sit idly by? They all released their last trump cards, and powerful spells attacked the two of them like a storm.
Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong faced the overwhelming attacks, but they did not retreat.
They looked at each other, their eyes full of determination and trust.
Then, the two swung their swords at the same time, and the sword light and spiritual power intertwined into a huge net, dissolving those attacks one by one.
Just as they were about to rush to the altar, an extremely powerful spiritual power light column suddenly rose from the altar. The light column contained the will and obsession of the strong men of the Tiandao Sect in the past, as if it was going to devour all living things.
"Linglong, be careful!" Gu Jiuchen reminded loudly. However, Ye Linglong had already rushed into the light column.
Her figure was looming in the light column, but her eyes were extremely bright, as if she could see through all the falsehoods in the world.
"Jiuchen, for peace, I am willing to give everything!" Ye Linglong's voice echoed in the light column, her emerald green sword danced in the light column, and the green flames raged like a raging storm, engaging in a fierce battle with that powerful force.
Gu Jiuchen was shocked when he saw this. He knew Ye Linglong's character and determination, and also knew how much pain and suffering she was enduring at the moment.
But he knew that he could not retreat. So he took a deep breath, also urged all his spiritual power, and rushed into the light column.
In the light column, Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong fought side by side, their swordsmanship and spiritual power intertwined into a huge net, tightly binding that powerful force.
However, that force was extremely powerful, and every impact made them feel extremely strenuous.
At this moment, Gu Jiuchen suddenly came up with a plan. He used his superb mastery of swordsmanship and his keen perception of the spiritual power of heaven and earth to find the flaw of that power.
So, he roared, and the long sword turned into thousands of sword shadows, attacking directly at the flaw.
Seeing this, Ye Linglong immediately swung the emerald long sword, and the green flame surged out like a raging tide, and together with Gu Jiuchen's sword shadow, it blasted towards the flaw.
With a deafening roar, the powerful force was finally torn apart, turning into dots of spiritual light and dissipating between heaven and earth.
