Chapter 849 Failed Again
When Ye Linglong saw this, she felt happy and was about to pursue the victory when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
"Linglong!" When Gu Jiuchen saw this, he was shocked and flew over quickly, holding Ye Linglong in his arms.
"I'm fine..." Ye Linglong turned pale and said with strength, "Go...kill that devil..."
Gu Jiuchen's eyes were full of worry, but he knew that now was not the time for love between children. He left Ye Linglong in the care of Mingyue, and then raised his sword to kill the leader of the Demon Cult.
At this time, the leader of the Demon Cult has been forced into danger by Master Xuanfeng and is about to lose.
The addition of Gu Jiuchen undoubtedly made matters worse.
"You...you all deserve to die!" The leader of the Demon Cult looked like a madman. He let out an angry roar, and then he actually burned his own essence and blood, turning it into a streak of blood, breaking through Master Xuanfeng's formation and escaping.
"Want to escape? It's not that easy!" Master Xuanfeng snorted coldly, and was about to chase after him, but was stopped by Gu Jiuchen.
"Senior, don't chase after the bad guys. Let's take a look at Linglong's injuries first," Gu Jiuchen said.
Master Xuanfeng also knew the priorities. He nodded and followed Gu Jiuchen to Ye Linglong's side.
Ye Linglong's injuries were serious, but she kept holding on. It wasn't until she saw that Gu Jiuchen and Xuanfeng were safe that she finally breathed a sigh of relief and passed out...
Mingyue took Ye Linglong and saw that her face was as pale as paper, her breath was weak, and there was a shocking blood hole in her chest, with blood gushing out.
"Linglong! How are you?" Mingyue asked anxiously, while her hands kept pouring spiritual power into her body.
Ye Linglong reluctantly opened her eyes,
Looking at Mingyue, he said weakly: "I'm fine...ahem...go...help him..." After saying that, he passed out again.
Mingyue was extremely anxious, but she also knew that now was not the time to be sad. She handed Ye Linglong to the care of the disciples behind her, then flew up and joined the battle.
At this time, Ye Linglong was fighting with the mysterious man in black. The man in black had a ghostly figure, and his moves were extremely cruel. Every attack hit Ye Linglong's vitals. Although Ye Linglong was seriously injured, she still held on and relied on her flexible body skills and exquisite swordsmanship to deal with the man in black.
"Who are you? Why do you want to attack me?" Ye Linglong asked coldly while resisting the attack of the man in black.
The man in black didn't speak, just sneered, and his attack became more fierce.
Ye Linglong was secretly worried. She knew that she was seriously injured and was no match for the man in black. But she couldn't fall, she still had to protect Gu Jiuchen, and she had to ascend to the upper world with everyone.
Thinking of this, Ye Linglong gritted her teeth, endured the severe pain in her body, and pushed the spiritual power in her body to the extreme. The long sword in her hand turned into streams of light and attacked the man in black.
However, the man in black was too powerful. No matter how Ye Linglong attacked, he was able to neutralize them one by one.
"Who are you? Why are you forcing yourself so hard?" Ye Linglong asked again, with a hint of despair in her tone.
The man in black still didn't speak, but the attacks in his hands were getting faster and harder.
Ye Linglong gradually became exhausted and her movements began to become sluggish.
"Bang!"
With a loud noise, Ye Linglong was knocked away by the man in black and fell heavily.
More than ten feet away.
"puff!"
Ye Linglong spat out a mouthful of blood again, her vision turned black and she almost fainted.
The man in black slowly walked up to Ye Linglong, looked at her condescendingly, and said in a cold voice: "You should just accept death!"
As he spoke, he raised the long sword in his hand and stabbed Ye Linglong's chest...
Mingyue led several Tianxian Sect disciples, like a bolt of lightning across the sky, and arrived at Ye Linglong's side in time. Seeing the seriously injured and dying Ye Linglong, Ming Yue felt filled with grief and anger, and the anger almost burned her reason away. She quickly stuffed a healing elixir into Ye Linglong's mouth, and at the same time, she continuously injected her spiritual power into Ye Linglong's body to stabilize her disordered aura.
"Linglong, hold on, we're coming!" Mingyue's voice trembled slightly because of anxiety.
Feeling the familiar warm spiritual power, Ye Linglong tried her best to open her heavy eyelids and weakly showed a pale smile to Mingyue, "Mingyue... I'm fine... cough cough..."
"Stop talking and recover from your injuries first!" Mingyue said in a low voice, holding back the tears in her eyes.
Ye Linglong nodded slightly, then closed her eyes and used all her strength to run her skills to refine the power of the elixir and repair the injuries in her body.
At this moment, the mysterious man in black, who had been silent all this time, suddenly sneered and floated back like a ghost, retreating several feet away in the blink of an eye.
"I have recorded today's events. You and everything you protect will become sacrifices for my revenge! Your end... is not far away!" The man in black left these eerie words. , then turned into a black smoke and disappeared in front of everyone.
He was moving so fast that no one could catch him.
"Want to escape? It's not that easy!" When Mingyue saw this, her almond-shaped eyes widened, she shouted angrily, and she wanted to catch up with her sword.
"Ming Yue, don't chase after the poor enemy!" A Tianxian Sect disciple quickly grabbed Mingyue and dissuaded him, "This person's strength is unfathomable. We should not spread our strength. It is better to protect Senior Sister Ye first."
Hearing this, Mingyue suppressed the anger in her heart and looked back at Ye Linglong, whose face was still pale. She could only stamp her feet bitterly and gave up the idea of pursuing him. She knew that the most important thing now was Ye Linglong's safety.
At this time, in the distant sky, the battle between Gu Jiuchen and the leader of the Demon Cult has entered a fierce stage. Both of them are the top masters in the world, their cultivation is unfathomable, and their every move contains terrifying power that can destroy the world. For a moment, the color of the sky and the earth changed, the sun and the moon lost light, and violent spiritual energy fluctuations swept across the entire battlefield like a stormy sea.
Originally, Gu Jiuchen had gradually gained the upper hand with his superb swordsmanship and powerful strength, suppressing the leader of the Demon Cult and retreating steadily. However, just as the man in black escaped and Mingyue and others rushed to Ye Linglong's side, Gu Jiuchen's mind suddenly fluctuated violently, and his movements showed some flaws involuntarily.
When masters compete, victory or defeat can only happen in an instant. The leader of the Demon Cult is so sophisticated that he will not let go of this golden opportunity. He seized the moment when Gu Jiuchen was distracted and roared angrily. The terrifying demonic energy that had been accumulated for a long time spurted out like a volcanic eruption, turning into a black beam of light and slamming into Gu Jiuchen's body-protecting aura.
"boom!"
deafening
Amidst the deafening noise, Gu Jiuchen's body-protecting energy vibrated violently, cracks appeared in an instant, and he was about to collapse completely...
Gu Jiuchen's heart trembled, and the news that Ye Linglong was in danger exploded in his mind like a thunder. He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, but his sword power inevitably showed a slight lag.
"Jiuchen, your heart is confused." The demon sect leader's sinister voice sounded in his ears, with undisguised sarcasm, "What? Your sweetheart is dying, are you distressed?"
Gu Jiuchen ignored the provocation of the leader of the Demon Cult. His eyes were sharp and the sword in his hand shook. The sharp sword energy turned into golden lightning and rolled towards the leader of the Demon Cult.
However, the leader of the demon sect had completely gained the upper hand at this time. He laughed wildly, and the demonic energy rolled in his hands, turning into a huge black shield, blocking all Gu Jiuchen's sword energy.
"It's useless, Jiuchen, you are destined to be defeated by me today!" The voice of the leader of the Demon Cult sounded like it came from the Nine Nether Hell, full of gloom and pride.
Gu Jiuchen took a deep breath, knowing that he could no longer be distracted, otherwise not only Ye Linglong's life would be in danger today, but he would also be buried here.
He closed his eyes, threw away all distracting thoughts, and felt the flow of spiritual energy between heaven and earth without any distractions. Gradually, the air around him began to become thicker, and an invisible aura emanated from him, like a peerless sword about to be unsheathed.
"break!"
Gu Jiuchen suddenly opened his eyes and let out a low drink.
A bright golden sword light shot out from the long sword in his hand, like a golden lightning, instantly tearing apart the demon sect leader's black body.
The colored shield struck him hard in the chest.
The face of the leader of the Demon Cult changed drastically. He never expected that Gu Jiuchen could burst out with such terrifying power at such a disadvantage. He hurriedly raised his hands, condensing all the demonic energy in his body and forming a thick defensive barrier in front of him.
The golden sword light collided with the black defensive barrier, causing a loud noise that shook the earth, and the entire sky was dyed gold and black.
The leader of the Demon Cult groaned, and flew out like a kite with its string broken, blood spurting out from his mouth.
However, Gu Jiuchen's face did not look good. Although he had repelled the leader of the demon sect, he himself had also suffered a considerable impact. The spiritual power in his body was exhausted, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
"Jiuchen!"
Mingyue's anxious voice came from the distance. Gu Jiuchen turned around and saw Mingyue supporting the pale Ye Linglong and looking at him worriedly.
Gu Jiuchen felt warm in his heart and was about to speak when he suddenly felt a powerful aura approaching quickly from a distance.
He suddenly looked up and saw a mysterious figure wearing a black cloak and a golden mask on his face, suspended in mid-air, looking at him coldly.
"Who are you?" Gu Jiuchen asked in a deep voice.
The mysterious man did not speak. He slowly raised his right hand, and a terrifying coercion emanated from him, as if a huge mountain was pressing down on everyone's hearts, making people breathless.
"No, his target is Jiuchen!" Mingyue's face changed drastically and she exclaimed.
However, it was too late. The mysterious man appeared in front of Gu Jiuchen like a ghost in a flash, and clawed at his chest with his five fingers.
