Chapter 777: Turning Defeat Into Victory
Before the Black Demon Cult Master finished speaking, Ye Linglong's figure appeared in front of him like a ghost. Her white clothes were stained with blood, but she couldn't hide the overwhelming hatred in her eyes, "Today, I will make you pay with blood!"
However, how can she defeat the Dark Lord? With a flash of black shadow, Ye Linglong was knocked away by a powerful force and fell heavily into the ruins.
"Linglong!" A mournful roar came from the distance. Ye Linglong struggled to raise her head, and saw a familiar figure coming through the sky, heading straight towards the Black Demon Cult Master with a rage that would destroy the world.
"Jiuchen!" Tears burst out of Ye Linglong's eyes, and a glimmer of hope ignited in her heart.
Gu Jiuchen, he's awake!
Gu Jiuchen saw spiritual energy surging all over his body, as if a sleeping dragon had finally awakened, and a powerful pressure swept across the entire battlefield. He knocked back the Black Demon Cult Leader with one palm and helped Ye Linglong up. His eyes were filled with distress and self-blame, "Linglong, I have made you suffer."
Ye Linglong shook her head, her eyes blurred by tears, "Just wake up, let's fight side by side!"
At this moment, a golden light fell from the sky, and an old man slowly fell in front of everyone. He has an immortal spirit and is holding a whisk in his hand. He is none other than the deceased Elder Li!
"Elder Li?!" Everyone exclaimed.
Elder Li smiled slightly, "I should not die. I received the guidance of the immortal and came back again. This time I came here to reveal the secret of the Black Demon Leader to the public!"
Elder Li looked around at everyone and said slowly: "The skills practiced by the Black Demon Cult Master are extremely evil. He needs to continuously absorb the blood essence of others to improve his cultivation. The way he absorbs blood essence is to use a method called 'blood curse'. 'The secret method connects one's own essence and blood with others, thereby continuously drawing strength."
"In other words, as long as you can find someone connected to his blood curse, you can find his weakness!" Gu Jiuchen's eyes flashed, and he instantly understood what Elder Li meant.
Ye Linglong also reacted and added: "Yes, and based on my previous fights with him, his power seems to change with the distance from the person connected to the blood curse. If this person can be taken away When the Dark Lord is around, his power will be greatly weakened!"
"But, where are we going to find the person connected to his blood curse?" asked a disciple of the Tianxian Sect.
"I know this person." Zhao Ling'er, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. Her eyes fell on Gu Jiuchen with complicated eyes, "I can help you find him."
Gu Jiuchen frowned slightly, he knew who Zhao Ling'er was referring to - her brother, Zhao Wuji. Zhao Wuji has always held a grudge against Gu Jiuchen. In order to gain strength, he did not hesitate to seek refuge with the Black Demon Cult Leader, and was even willing to become his "furnace."
"Ling'er, are you sure you want to do this?" Gu Jiuchen asked. He knew that Zhao Ling'er still had a glimmer of hope for his brother deep in his heart.
Zhao Ling'er took a deep breath and said with firm eyes: "I have already lost my brother once, and I can't just watch him make mistakes anymore. Even if he hates me, I will bring him back!"
Seeing Zhao Ling'er being so determined, Gu Jiuchen stopped trying to dissuade him. He and Ye Linglong looked at each other and already had a plan in mind.
"Okay, Ling'er, I believe you." Gu Jiuchen nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will definitely rescue Zhao Wuji."
Zhao Ling'er glanced at Gu Jiuchen gratefully, turned around and disappeared into the night. She was going to complete her mission, for her brother and for the justice in her heart.
After Zhao Ling'er left, Gu Jiuchen immediately summoned all the disciples of the Tianxian Sect and informed everyone of the plan and goals. As soon as the news came out, the crowd was excited. Everyone was filled with anger, eager to avenge their dead comrades, and eager to overthrow the brutal rule of the Dark Lord.
"The Dark Lord has done many evil things, and we can no longer sit back and wait to be killed!" an elder said indignantly.
"That's right! We will unite all the righteous people to fight to the death with the Black Demon Leader!" Another disciple also echoed loudly.
Gu Jiuchen looked at the excited crowd and his heart was full of hope. He knows that although the Tianxian Sect has suffered heavy losses, as long as people work together, they will definitely be able to defeat evil!
"Pass my order and immediately send someone to contact other sects oppressed by the Black Demon Leader to discuss the plan for the crusade!" Gu Jiuchen's tone was firm and unquestionable.
Soon, the Tianxian Sect's envoys set off to various places to inform the world of the Black Demon Leader's brutal behavior and the Tianxian Sect's determination. The news spread quickly throughout the entire world of immortality like a spark igniting a prairie fire.
Those sects that had been oppressed by the Black Demon Leader responded one after another. Some of them lost their homes, some lost their relatives, and their hearts were filled with hatred for the Black Demon Leader. Now, the call of the Tianxian Sect is like a light of hope, illuminating their path to revenge.
In just a few days, a coalition army composed of dozens of sects such as Tianxian Sect, Qingyun Sect, Wanjian Sect, etc. was assembled. They come from all over the world, but they all have a common goal: to overthrow the rule of the Dark Lord and restore peace to the world of immortality!
The coalition forces are marching toward the main altar of the Black Demon Cult Master, and a decisive battle to determine the fate of the world of immortality is about to begin!
On the day of the decisive battle, the color of the sky and the earth changed, and the storm surged. The Black Demon Cult Leader stood on the high platform, looking at the dark coalition forces in front of him, with a disdainful smile on his lips.
"How dare a bunch of rabble come to challenge my authority?" His arrogant voice echoed throughout the battlefield.
Gu Jiuchen held a long sword and stood in the air, confronting him. "Master of the Dark Demon, your sins are too numerous to mention, and today is the day you die!"
Before he finished speaking, Gu Jiuchen took the lead, and a sharp sword energy cut through the sky, pointing directly at the Black Demon Cult Leader.
The Black Demon Cult Leader snorted coldly, waved his palm to meet the attack, and the two powerful forces collided with each other, erupting with a deafening roar.
In the fierce battle, Zhao Linger lured Zhao Wuji to a place far away from the battlefield as planned. The Black Demon Cult Leader, who lost his source of power, suddenly lost his strength, and Gu Jiuchen seized the opportunity and pierced his heart with a sword!
The Black Demon Cult Leader's screams resounded through the sky, and his body turned into a black mist, and finally dissipated between heaven and earth. Zhao Wuji, who lost his source of power, instantly collapsed to the ground, his face ashen. He never thought that everything he had worked hard for would eventually be destroyed. After witnessing the tragic death of the Black Demon Cult Leader, Xuanfeng was even more heartbroken. He frantically wanted to escape from this place of right and wrong, but was killed by Elder Li who rushed over with a palm.
After the war, the disciples of Tianxian Sect cheered and rejoiced. They fought bloody battles and finally welcomed the dawn of victory. Gu Jiuchen looked at the celebrating people, but his heart was extremely calm. He knew that peace was hard-won and needed to be cherished.
"Jiuchen, we won." Ye Linglong walked to Gu Jiuchen, tears flashing in her eyes, and her tone was full of excitement and relief.
"Yes, we won." Gu Jiuchen gently held Ye Linglong's hand, feeling her temperature, and his heart was full of warmth. He knew that this victory belonged not only to Tianxian Sect, but also to each other.
After experiencing this life-and-death catastrophe, Tianxian Sect ushered in a long-lost peace. The sect was actively rebuilding its homeland, a thriving scene. Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong could finally unload their burdens and enjoy a moment of tranquility.
However, in these seemingly peaceful days, Gu Jiuchen felt a little uneasy in his heart. He always felt that something seemed to be overlooked by him, and an invisible crisis was quietly approaching.
"Linglong, do you think there will be eternal peace in this world?" One day, Gu Jiuchen looked at the starry sky and asked softly.
Ye Linglong leaned against him and said softly: "I believe that as long as we are full of hope in our hearts, we will be able to overcome all difficulties and protect this hard-won peace."
Gu Jiuchen turned his head and looked at Ye Linglong. Her eyes were full of determination and tenderness, which gradually calmed his uneasy heart.
However, at this moment, a strange blood-red light suddenly appeared in the sky, dyeing the entire night sky blood red!
"What is that?" Ye Linglong exclaimed, with an ominous premonition in his heart.
Gu Jiuchen frowned, and the uneasy premonition in his heart became stronger. He had a premonition that a greater crisis was about to come...
