Chapter 827 Escape
The stream of light across the sky was getting closer and closer, and accompanied by bursts of sound breaking through the sky, Xuanfeng led the elite disciples of the Tianxian Sect and landed in front of everyone. Each of them is covered in starlight and holds a magic weapon, like a magic weapon descending from the sky. Seeing this scene, the disciples who were already discouraged had the fire of hope rekindled in their eyes.
&34;Big brother! &34;Li Yifeng stepped forward excitedly.
Xuanfeng's face was solemn and he didn't bother to exchange pleasantries. He looked around and frowned: "The situation is urgent. There is no time to explain too much. We must retreat immediately!" &34;
After that, he quickly arranged for his disciples to set up defensive formations, and at the same time directed others to prepare to evacuate.
&34;Sect Master,&34;Xuanfeng walked up to Gu Jiuchen and said in a heavy tone, "The power of this black shadow is far beyond our imagination. Fighting forcefully will only increase casualties. I have found a safe path to avoid it temporarily. "
Gu Jiuchen nodded, knowing that now was not the time to show off. He looked at the battlefield not far away that was shrouded in black shadows, and his heart was full of worry: "Linglong she"
&34;Don’t worry, Sect Master, I will bring Miss Ye back safely! &34;
Xuanfeng looked at Gu Jiuchen and said in a deep voice: "Sect Master, you and Miss Ye are done with each other and buy time for us!" &34;
Gu Jiuchen didn't hesitate at all, he knew this was the best choice at the moment. He turned around and looked at Ye Linglong firmly, "Linglong, follow me!" &34;
Ye Linglong took a deep look at Mingyue, held her hand with her backhand, and said, "Take care of yourself." &34;After saying that, she turned around resolutely and stood side by side with Gu Jiuchen, facing the suffocating darkness.
&34;Want to leave? Not that easy! &34;The black shadow let out an angry roar, its figure flashed like a ghost, and instantly arrived in front of Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong.
&34;Linglong, be careful! &34;Gu Jiuchen protected Ye Linglong behind him, waving the long sword in his hand, and the sharp sword energy went straight towards the black shadow.
Ye Linglong was not to be outdone. The magic formula in her hand changed, and ice cones shot towards the black shadow like a heavy rain.
However, the power of the black shadow was too strong. The attacks from Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong only caused ripples when they landed on it.
"Let's go!" Gu Jiuchen grabbed Ye Linglong's hand, and the two of them turned into a stream of light and flew away into the distance.
The black shadow is chasing after him, and every step it takes seems to be able to shake the whole world, which is frightening.
At this critical moment, Xuanfeng led everyone to successfully break out of the encirclement and retreat towards a safe area. Gu Jiuchen and Ye Linglong became the targets of the shadows and fell into a more dangerous situation.
Mingyue held Ye Linglong's hand tightly and didn't let go until the last moment, watching as the two of them turned into light and disappeared into the night sky. Tears blurred her vision, but she resisted crying because she knew that now was not the time to be sad.
"Miss Mingyue, it's time for us to leave." Xuan Yu's voice sounded in her ears, with a hint of worry and concern.
Mingyue took a deep breath and tried to calm down her panic. She nodded and handed the medicine that Ye Linglong gave her to Xuan Yu, "These medicines are very useful in healing, please be sure to distribute them to the injured classmates. "
Xuan Yu took the medicine and nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will do it." After saying that, he turned around and directed his disciples to lift up the wounded and prepare to retreat with Xuan Feng.
Mingyue supported a female disciple with an injured leg and followed the team, moving quickly in the direction guided by Xuanfeng. Along the way, they shuttled through dense jungles and climbed over rugged mountains, trying to avoid open areas to avoid becoming the target of shadow attacks.
Xuanfeng deserves to be the senior brother of the Tianxian Sect, and his familiarity with the terrain is amazing. Under his leadership, everyone successfully avoided the black shadow's pursuit several times, and gradually widened the distance between them and the black shadow.
"Elder brother, where are we going now?" Li Yifeng asked Xuanfeng while observing the surroundings vigilantly.
"There is a hidden valley not far ahead, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. We can rest there temporarily and avoid the pursuit of the black shadow." Xuanfeng looked solemn and spoke quickly, "The power of the black shadow is too powerful. We must contact the sect as soon as possible and request support.”
After everyone heard this, a glimmer of hope ignited in their hearts. They quickened their pace and ran towards the hidden valley.
Mingyue looked back and could no longer see the shadow, but she knew in her heart that this was just the calm before the storm.
Because she could feel an invisible pressure always hanging over their heads, following them like a shadow.
light of dawn
The fleeing team marched quickly in the night. Everyone was exhausted, but the instinct of survival and hope for the future supported them to keep moving forward. Mingyue supported the injured female disciple, feeling her rapid breathing and trembling body, and became even more anxious.
"Senior Brother, how long do we have to walk to reach that valley?" Li Yifeng's voice was a little tired. He looked back and saw that there seemed to be countless pairs of eyes hidden in the darkness, making people's hair stand on end.
Xuanfeng didn't look back. He stared straight ahead and said in a deep voice: "Come on, you can see it after climbing over the mountain in front."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a powerful sense of oppression descended from the sky and enveloped everyone's hearts, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down, making people breathless.
"No, it's catching up!" Xuan Yu's face changed drastically. He drew out his long sword and looked around vigilantly.
"Don't stop, keep going!" Xuan Feng shouted and rushed forward.
In the darkness, a huge black shadow fell from the sky and hit the back of the team heavily, smashing a huge deep pit on the ground. Everyone looked back in horror, only to see the black shadow slowly stand up. Its figure was even bigger than before, like a small hill, exuding a suffocating pressure.
"Go!" Xuan Feng shouted again. He knew that with their current strength, they could not compete with the black shadow at all. The only way was to get to the destination as soon as possible, and there might be a glimmer of hope.
Everyone did not dare to stop and ran forward with all their strength. The black shadow let out a deafening roar, took heavy steps, and chased after everyone. Every step it took, the ground would shake violently, as if there was a small earthquake.
Xuan Feng ran while observing the surrounding terrain, feeling extremely anxious. He knew that if they continued like this, they would be caught up by the shadow sooner or later, and they had to find a way to get rid of it.
"Big Brother, what should we do?" Li Yifeng's voice was filled with despair. They had been fleeing for a whole night, but they still couldn't get rid of the shadow's pursuit.
Xuanfeng frowned, and suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, "I know what to do! Follow me!"
He changed direction and ran in another direction. Although everyone was puzzled, they still chose to believe him and followed him.
They ran all the way and finally came to the entrance of a valley.
"Where is this place?" Mingyue asked panting.
"A legendary ancient ruins, maybe there is the answer we want there." Xuanfeng pointed to the depths of the valley and said firmly, "If we want to get rid of the shadow completely, we must figure out its weaknesses, and this ruins may hide the clues we need!"
With fatigue and hope, everyone stepped into this ancient ruins full of unknowns. Behind them, the roar of the shadow was getting closer and closer, as if foreshadowing a greater crisis was about to come.
