Chapter 151 Hua Li and Chen Yu Join Forces to Overcome the Crisis
The flames, like a raging dragon suppressed for millennia, roared with the power to destroy everything, transforming into a colossal wave that swept out from the crack in the door.
"Retreat!" Shao Siming shouted!
The cultivators who initially ignored the warnings didn't even have time to scream before their bodies were instantly swallowed up in the dazzling golden-red light.
Behind that so-called giant gate, there was neither the cold glint of divine weapons nor the mountain of scrolls.
The crowd screamed and collapsed amidst the gushing lava, in complete chaos.
The first person to run out roared in despair, "The door! The door won't open!"
"All the doors are sealed off, we can't get out!"
"how so?"
The gap in the giant gate widened, and golden-red flames surged out from it, instantly engulfing more than a dozen people in the fire.
Someone started to break down: "It's over! It's completely over! We're all going to die here!"
As Huali retreated, she suddenly looked at Zhan Li. Zhan Li, Shao Siming, and Yu Ling were the closest to her, and although they retreated quickly, they were still seriously injured.
His entire right arm was covered in blood, contorted in an extremely awkward position. His double pupils showed no less shock than anyone else present. "How... how could this happen?"
Ranran had deduced several times that this place was indeed an ancient armory, the most likely hiding place for the Reincarnation Sundial.
Where exactly did things go wrong?
Purgatory unfolded in an instant, causing even cultivators to lose their composure. The wailing and the lingering heat of the flames made Huali feel as if she were trapped in a stuffy container.
Just then, a clear shout rang out like a thunderclap.
"What's the panic!"
Shen Yu took a step forward, his sharp eyes instantly taking over the chaos. "Tiangongfang, set up shields! Medicine King Valley, rescue people! Everyone else, channel your spiritual power into the front lines and guard the gates!"
The boy's commands were as precise as the drumbeats of a battlefield. His amber eyes, like jade tempered in cold water, swept across the scene, freezing the chaotic landscape and the crumbling hearts of the people in place in an instant.
Yu Ling and Shao Siming did not hesitate.
"Everyone at Tiangong Workshop, join me in using spiritual power to dispel obstacles!"
"Hehuan Sect, heed my command! Rise up and aid us!"
"Medicine King Valley..."
Overwhelmed by the aura, everyone instinctively obeyed the order, and various spiritual lights hastily converged into a huge light shield, barely managing to withstand the increasingly violent waves of fire inside the door.
The spiritual energy collided, and everyone coughed up blood.
"The origin of all things, life!" Huali's wood-type card quickly emitted healing light, but unfortunately, there were too many people, so it was just a drop in the ocean.
The light shield trembled under the blazing flames and then rapidly cracked. A subsequent barrage of fire coiled and tore at it like a giant python, threatening to shatter it completely.
Tang Wanwan, a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, was the first to collapse. She coughed up blood, and her internal organs seemed to have shifted, but she still gritted her teeth and persevered.
All passageways are now blocked, and those outside the Water Mirror cannot know what has happened to them. If they do not save themselves, they can only wait to die.
Just when everyone was at a loss, a loud shout came.
"Open it!"
A fierce glint flashed in Shen Yu's eyes, and his figure suddenly rose from the ground. The young general was like a wild beast pouncing from the depths of the grassland, charging straight to the top of the light shield against the waves of fire with a bloodthirsty wildness.
The halberd in his hand burst forth with a dazzling cold light, gathering the remaining spiritual power of everyone below, transforming it into a streak that tore through the sky, and fiercely stabbed down towards the core of the flames!
boom--
The raging torrent of flames was actually cleaved open, creating a fissure.
Hua Li's eyes lit up. "He really is a big shot!"
However, the next second, before the boss's gunshot had finished, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fell like a kite!
Changliu exclaimed in surprise, "Young Master!"
At the peak of the Golden Core stage at nineteen, Shen Yu's strength was ultimately limited. The backlash from tearing apart the sea of fire struck his chest like a heavy hammer. His vision went black, and his bones groaned as if they could no longer bear the weight.
He quickly adjusted his position, trying to minimize the impact damage.
However, the expected pain did not come. A strange force suddenly wrapped around his waist, steadily supporting his downward momentum, while a healing power containing immense vitality enveloped him without warning.
When the unfamiliar scent of pear blossoms mingled with the lush aroma of grass and trees, Shen Yu suddenly opened his eyes.
His gaze pierced through the flames and shot straight toward the rosewood not far away.
The girl's hair and the crimson feathers by her ears fluttered wildly in the flames, her face showing no worry or tenderness, but rather a focused concentration.
After rescuing him, the vines immediately entangled the next person.
Shen Yu steadied himself, ignoring the inexplicable emotions welling up inside him, and suddenly looked up ahead!
The flames that had been split open were rapidly closing up, and the group, who had just caught their breath, had to awkwardly erect the barrier again.
"Cough...!" Shen Yu forcibly suppressed the metallic taste rising in his throat, and stomped his right foot backward. As the broken ground was dented, he was launched out again as if by a mechanism.
Rong Xing's ten fingers were stained with blood, and the deep starlight condensed into a dazzling star chart at his fingertips. With each rotation, his face grew paler. "Life... Life Gate!"
"This is the gate of life! There must be a way to break this deadlock here!"
His expression was frantic. But there's always a way out; where exactly is the unbreakable formation?
"The gate! The core of the fire wave within the gate!" Zhan Li's double pupils spun wildly, his gaze piercing through the flames, fixed on the depths of the giant gate. With each word he spoke, he coughed up blood. "External force shattered its form, space severed its spirit!"
All eyes instantly focused on the deep, dark core within the doorway, where the wounds were being healed.
Without discussion, without hesitation, and without even a moment of extra thought, the instinct for survival unleashed astonishing efficiency and tacit understanding at this moment.
All the spiritual energy of everyone exploded towards the center, causing the space to shake violently.
A glint flashed in Shen Yu's eyes. He suddenly raised his halberd and poured all the remaining spiritual power into the halberd, hitting the core of the shimmering flame with unparalleled precision!
Time seemed to freeze for a moment.
Then came a deeper, more muffled roar than any explosion. The massive wave of fire, like a giant python whose spine had been pulled out, abruptly halted its violent power.
With only one final blow remaining, Huali didn't hesitate: "Crimson Lotus Flowing Fire, explode!"
A massive golden flame surged toward the stagnant fire wave, and the terrifying force of the two forces rapidly collapsed inward, only to rebound outward like a bursting balloon in the next second!
Karin felt an irresistible force slam into her back, and her body was thrown forward.
At the same time, Shen Yu, who was also hit, had his protective aura shattered completely, and he flew backward!
Bang!
The two collided instantly.
Karin instinctively closed her eyes, but the sharp pain of the impact did not come; a hand with thin calluses firmly placed between the back of her head and the ground.
"Ugh..." Shen Yu spat out a mouthful of blood and gritted his teeth, saying, "Is your head made of iron?!"
Before Huali could answer, the suction force of the collapsing vortex suddenly surged, and an indescribable spatial primal force instantly wrapped around Huali Chenyu and the others, swallowing them up in the blink of an eye.
