Chapter 204: Joining Hands to Fight the Enemy
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen did not dare to slack off. When the mysterious man's attack suddenly appeared, they quickly separated like two agile cheetahs and rushed towards the enemy from both sides. Yun Yao's eyes were firm. She was well aware of the crisis at the moment. Every move of the unique sword technique given by the system flashed through her mind quickly. She was seen moving lightly, and the long sword in her hand was like a smart dragon, instantly transforming into layers of sword shadows. Those sword shadows whizzed through the air and collided fiercely with the black spiritual power balls that were hitting like raindrops. Every collision was accompanied by a deafening roar, as if the world was shaking.
Yun Yao's eyes revealed a resolute look. Her feet were as firm as nails to the ground, and her lower body was solid. With the strength of her waist, she poured all her spiritual power into the long sword. With the blessing of spiritual power, the long sword shone more and more brightly, and the sword shadows became more dense, as if forming an indestructible sword barrier, temporarily blocking the attack of the black spiritual power ball. However, she knew in her heart that such resistance was only a stopgap measure. The mysterious man was too powerful. If they could not take the initiative to attack and find the opponent's flaws, they would be overwhelmed by the endless attack sooner or later.
At the same time, Chu Mochen on the other side also used his powerful spells. He changed the hand seals with both hands quickly, and muttered something. As the spell was chanted, golden spiritual light rushed out from his palms like a surging tide. Those lights gathered in the air and gradually formed various mysterious and powerful runes and patterns, as if containing the truth between heaven and earth. Wherever the golden spiritual light went, the air was burned and twisted, making a "sizzling" sound, and swept towards the mysterious man with the momentum of destroying the world.
Chu Mochen's face was grim, and sweat was oozing from his forehead. He knew that the enemy he faced this time was no ordinary person. He concentrated on controlling the spiritual light, making it as easy as using his arms and fingers, and coordinating with Yun Yao's sword shadow to form a seemingly perfect defense and attack system. However, although their attacks temporarily blocked the black spiritual ball, the figure of the mysterious man remained motionless under the black robe, as if these attacks were just insignificant harassment to him.
In the fierce battle, Yun Yao's eyes were always fixed on the mysterious man's every move. While swinging her sword, she quickly analyzed the rhythm and trajectory of the mysterious man's attack in her mind. Gradually, she discovered some clues. The mysterious man's attack did not seem to be without any rules. The firing angles, speeds, and intervals of those black spirit balls seemed to have some subtle connection, as if they were controlled by an invisible force.
Yun Yao's heart moved. She knew that this discovery might be the key to their turning the tide of the battle. However, she was in the middle of a fierce battle at the moment and had no time to communicate with Chu Mochen. Suddenly, she had an idea and thought of the special function of the system. She silently called the system in her heart and conveyed her discovery to Chu Mochen through the system.
Chu Mochen was slightly stunned after receiving Yun Yao's message. He didn't expect Yun Yao to make such a discovery in such a fierce battle. He secretly admired her in his heart, and at the same time, he was more focused on verifying the law that Yun Yao said. After a moment of observation, he found that what Yun Yao said was true. There was indeed a hidden law in the mysterious man's attack.
With this understanding, the two began to adjust their fighting strategies. They no longer simply resisted and attacked, but instead cleverly dodged and counterattacked according to the pattern of the mysterious man's attack. Yun Yao's swordsmanship became more flexible and varied. Sometimes she turned sideways to avoid the dense attacks of the black spirit ball, and sometimes she took advantage of the gap between the spirit balls to stab out like lightning, pointing her sword at the vital points of the mysterious man. Every stab was accompanied by her desire for victory and firm belief.
Chu Mochen's spells became more precise and ruthless. He no longer released the golden spiritual power in a large area, but concentrated the spiritual power into beams like sharp arrows, shooting at the mysterious man's flaws in the gaps between his attacks. Those golden spiritual power beams cut through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, as if they were going to tear the space apart.
The two of them cooperated more and more tacitly, just like comrades who had fought side by side for many years. There seemed to be an invisible tacit understanding flowing between them. They didn't need to communicate in words. Just a glance or a movement could understand each other's intentions. After Yun Yao's stab, the mysterious man's defense was temporarily loosened. Chu Mochen keenly captured this opportunity. He did not hesitate to cast a powerful spell. A huge golden spiritual power palm appeared out of thin air and slapped the mysterious man fiercely.
The mysterious man obviously did not expect that they could find his weakness so quickly and launch such a fierce counterattack. He was hit by the golden spiritual power palm and staggered back a few steps. This was the first time since the battle began that they had truly posed a substantial threat to the mysterious man.
However, the mysterious man was very powerful after all, and he quickly stabilized his body. His black robe fluttered slightly under the impact of spiritual power, making a rustling sound, as if telling of his anger. He raised his head, and his eyes hidden in the shadows revealed a cold murderous intent. The powerful and evil aura became stronger and stronger, like a volcano about to erupt, which made people shudder.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen did not relax their vigilance because of this small victory. They knew that the real battle had just begun. They looked at each other and saw determination in each other's eyes. In this valley full of danger and unknowns, they could only stand by each other and work hand in hand to survive this powerful and mysterious enemy, continue their adventure and exploration on the road of cultivation, and bravely move forward to a higher realm.
