Chapter 768 Counterattack

Before he finished speaking, the Black Demon Cult Master flashed and turned into a black lightning, heading straight for Gu Jiuchen. The speed was as fast as a ghost, and Gu Jiuchen didn't even have time to react. He only felt that the leader of the Black Demon had already arrived in front of him.

"Jiuchen, be careful!" At this critical moment, a sweet shout came, and a beautiful figure fell from the sky like a fairy from the Nine Heavens, blocking in front of Gu Jiuchen.

The person who came was none other than Ye Linglong. She was holding a crystal clear long sword in her hand. The blade of the sword exuded a dazzling golden light. It collided with the black demon leader's magic knife and made a deafening sound.

"Linglong!" Gu Jiuchen's heart warmed. He knew that Ye Linglong rushed forward desperately to protect himself.

"Do you still care about others?" The Black Demon Cult Leader sneered, and waved the magic knife in his hand again, and black sword light struck Ye Linglong like a violent storm.

Ye Linglong scolded, and danced the long sword in her hand, forming an airtight sword net, blocking all the attacks of the Black Demon Cult Leader.

However, the strength of the Black Demon Leader was far superior to that of Ye Linglong. Even though Ye Linglong tried his best, he gradually fell behind.

"Linglong, hold on, I'll help you!" Seeing this, Gu Jiuchen immediately took out his magic weapon and joined the battle.

For a time, demonic energy was everywhere in front of the cave, sword energy was rising into the sky, and an earth-shattering battle began. However, just as Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong joined forces and gradually stabilized their position, the Black Demon Cult Leader suddenly looked up to the sky and roared, and an even more terrifying aura erupted from his body.

"No, he's going to fight!" Ye Linglong's face changed drastically and she shouted anxiously, "Jiuchen, retreat quickly!"

Gu Jiuchen also felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. However, at this moment, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some secret hidden deep in the cave behind the Black Demon Leader...

Gu Jiuchen didn't have time to think too much. He flashed and turned into a stream of light, heading straight into the depths of the cave. When Ye Linglong saw this, she was shocked and wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

"Jiuchen! Come back!"

The leader of the Dark Demon did not expect that Gu Jiuchen would do such a crazy move at this time. He was stunned for a moment, then gave a ferocious laugh and chased after him.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!"

Deep in the cave, it was pitch black and it was impossible to see even one's fingers, but Gu Jiuchen seemed to sense something and walked forward without hesitation.

Suddenly, a faint light appeared in front of him. Gu Jiuchen felt happy and quickened his pace.

The light became brighter and brighter, and gradually, a huge cave appeared in front of Gu Jiuchen.

In the center of the cave, an old man in white clothes sat cross-legged, with white hair and white beard, and an immortal spirit. He was the mysterious immortal who had guided Gu Jiuchen in the illusion before.

"Senior!" Gu Jiuchen was extremely excited and quickly stepped forward to salute.

The mysterious immortal slowly opened his eyes, looked at Gu Jiuchen, smiled slightly, and said, "You are finally here."

"Senior, why are you here?" Gu Jiuchen asked doubtfully.

"I have been waiting for you." The mysterious immortal said, "The Black Demon Leader has done many evil things, and now it is time to get rid of him, and you are the destined one."

"Me?" Gu Jiuchen pointed at himself, somewhat in disbelief.

"Yes, it's you." The mysterious immortal nodded and said, "I know you have many doubts in your heart, but now is not the time to explain. Let me help you first."

As he spoke, the mysterious immortal stretched out his hand, and a shining golden armor appeared in his hand.

"This is the 'Nine Heavens Xuanwu Armor'. It is an ancient artifact with amazing defensive power. It can help you resist the attack of the Black Demon Leader."

Gu Jiuchen took the treasure armor and was so excited that he quickly knelt down to thank him.

"Thank you, senior!"

"No need to be polite, go and save your sect." The mysterious immortal said, "Remember, the fatal weakness of the Black Demon Leader is his heart. Only by attacking his heart can he be completely eliminated."

When Gu Jiuchen heard this, his heart trembled, and he remembered the words of the mysterious immortal.

"Junior, take your leave!"

After saying that, Gu Jiuchen turned around, left the cave, and ran outside.

…

Returning to Tianxian Sect, Gu Jiuchen immediately summoned Ye Linglong, Elder Li, Zhao Ling'er and others to tell him what the mysterious immortal told him, and formulated a counterattack plan. Gu Jiuchen's eyes were like a torch, scanning everyone present, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, the Tianxian Sect has encountered a great disaster. As a disciple of the sect, I have no shirking responsibility! Now, I know the weakness of the Black Demon Cult Leader, and we are not without a chance of winning!" He raised the Jiutian Xuanwu Armor high in his hand, "This is an ancient artifact, given by the immortal, to help us turn defeat into victory!"

As soon as the artifact came out, everyone was in an uproar, and the originally depressed atmosphere was instantly ignited.

"Sect Master!" A young disciple stood up with a determined light in his eyes, "We are willing to live and die with the sect!"

"We are willing to live and die with the sect!" The deafening voice resounded through the sky, and everyone's face was filled with determination.

Ye Linglong looked at the scene in front of her, and a warm current surged in her heart. She walked up to Gu Jiuchen, held his hand, and said softly: "Jiuchen, don't worry, I have already made a battle plan and I will definitely be able to help you."

Gu Jiuchen held Ye Linglong's hand and nodded gratefully. He knew that Ye Linglong was resourceful and with her around, he could fight with peace of mind.

Ye Linglong divided the Tianxian Sect disciples into three groups. The first group was led by Elder Li, who was responsible for containing the main force of the Black Demon Sect; the second group was led by Zhao Linger, who was responsible for using their understanding of the Black Demon Sect to raid the enemy's rear and disrupt their position; and the last group was led by Gu Jiuchen himself, who went straight to Huanglong and aimed directly at the leader of the Black Demon Sect!

"Linger, you are most familiar with the Black Demon Sect. You must be cautious when you go there. Your mission is not to kill the enemy, but to delay time as much as possible to buy opportunities for Jiuchen." Ye Linglong carefully reminded.

"Master's wife, don't worry, Linger understands!" Zhao Linger nodded solemnly, with a firm light in her eyes.

Everything was arranged properly, and the sky gradually darkened. The night fell, and it was the best time to counterattack...

The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the sound of killing shook the sky. The disciples of the Tianxian Sect were like tigers descending from the mountains, unstoppable, and fought a desperate battle with the Black Demon Sect. The shouts of killing, the collision of weapons, and the screams intertwined together, forming a scene like hell on earth.

Zhao Linger, dressed in white clothes as white as snow, moved lightly among the disciples of the Black Magic Sect. She knew the Black Magic Sect's skills and routines very well, and could often anticipate the enemy's moves. The long sword in her hand was like a spirit snake spitting out its tongue, and each move hit the vital points directly.

"You lackeys of the Black Magic Sect, your death is coming!" Zhao Linger shouted delicately, and with a flash of sword light, she killed a disciple of the Black Magic Sect. Her beautiful eyes were full of frost, and the hatred that had accumulated in her heart for many years completely broke out at this moment.

"Little girl, don't be so arrogant!" An elder of the Black Magic Sect roared, waving the mace in his hand, and smashed it on Zhao Linger's head. Zhao Linger was not in a hurry, and she easily dodged the attack by turning her body to the side.

"You want to hurt me?" Zhao Linger sneered, and the long sword in her hand shook, turning into a sky full of sword shadows, covering the elder. The elder was immediately in a panic and tired of parrying.

"Ling'er, well done!" Elder Li's praise came from afar. He was leading the disciples of Tianxian Sect to fight against the main force of the Black Demon Sect. Seeing Zhao Ling'er so brave, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

At this time, Gu Jiuchen had led the elite disciples to kill the Black Demon Sect Leader. The Black Demon Sect Leader was dressed in a black robe, with a hideous face, and the devilish energy rolled around him, exuding a suffocating pressure.

"Gu Jiuchen, you are finally here!" The Black Demon Sect Leader's tone was cold, and his eyes were full of resentment. "Today, I will make you pay for your blood debt with blood!"

"Evil cannot defeat good, today is your death day!" Gu Jiuchen's eyes were like torches, and the Nine Heavens Black Tortoise Armor in his hand exuded a dazzling light.

The two fought fiercely together, and for a time, the earth shook and the sand and rocks flew. The strength of the Black Demon Sect Leader is indeed powerful, and every attack contains the power to destroy the world. But Gu Jiuchen was not an easy opponent. Relying on the defense of the Nine Heavens Black Tortoise Armor and his own powerful cultivation, he fought the Black Demon Cult Leader to a standstill.

At this moment, the voice of the mysterious immortal suddenly sounded in Gu Jiuchen's mind: "Jiuchen, now, attack his chest!"

Gu Jiuchen's heart moved, he knew that the opportunity had come! He seized the moment when the Black Demon Cult Leader made a mistake, poured all his energy into the Nine Heavens Black Tortoise Armor, and slammed into the Black Demon Cult Leader's chest.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, the Nine Heavens Black Tortoise Armor burst into a dazzling light. The Black Demon Cult Leader screamed, flew backwards, fell heavily to the ground, and blood spurted out of his mouth.

The Black Demon Cult Leader was defeated, and his subordinates who usually showed off their power suddenly scattered, only regretting that their parents had not given them two less legs, and fled for their lives. Seeing the situation reversed, the disciples of the Tianxian Sect burst into thunderous cheers, and their shouts went straight to the sky.

Gu Jiuchen put away the Nine Heavens Black Tortoise Armor and walked to Ye Linglong. The two looked into each other's eyes. No need to say anything, everything was said without words. Ye Linglong's beautiful eyes were shining with crystal tears, but the corners of her mouth were smiling happily, and she gently leaned in Gu Jiuchen's arms.

"Jiuchen, we won." There was a tremor in Ye Linglong's voice, and more of the joy of surviving the disaster.

"Yes, we won." Gu Jiuchen gently stroked Ye Linglong's hair, his heart full of emotion. This battle was not only a decisive battle between the Tianxian Sect and the Black Demon Sect, but also a testimony of his love with Ye Linglong.

They stood side by side, looking at the scene of celebration in front of them, their hearts full of hope for the future.
