Feng Yu's expression immediately darkened, even showing a hint of despair. He sneered and said, "My lord, you have disappointed me greatly!" His palms clenched tightly, his face filled with disappointment and heartache, but his eyes grew increasingly resolute, as if he had let go of something. He turned to look in the direction of the sacred tree and shouted, "Aren't you going to make a move?"
"Hehehe... Patriarch Feng, what a decisive move!" A familiar voice came from behind the tree, and someone slowly walked out, looking at the group of people in this direction.
"Qiu Yue!" You You exclaimed in surprise. This person was actually Qiu Yue from the Mingxin Sect, the one who had gone missing. They couldn't find him anywhere in the entire Immortal Marsh, but he hadn't expected to appear here. Had Feng Yu cooperated with him? No wonder he was able to produce the Earth-Shaking Cauldron that had trapped Yuan Qi.
"Sect Leader You, it's been a long time!" Qiu Yue looked over, his smile deepening. "You really surprise me more and more each time. The Phoenix Clan is one thing, but to have two Divine Clan members by your side is quite another." He glanced at Yuan Qi and narrowed his eyes slightly. "It seems I wasn't wrong when I was outside the Moon Sea Secret Realm. This Qilin is one you brought out from the secret realm, isn't it?"
"Enough with the nonsense!" Before You You could respond, Feng Yu couldn't help but urge loudly, "We agreed beforehand that you would use the divine artifact to help me awaken the sacred tree, and I... would summon the celestial maiden to give you her life force."
"What's the rush, Patriarch Feng? I was just about to activate the formation!" Qiu Yue sneered, glancing at You You from head to toe. "With your ability to contract with two goddesses of the divine race, your vitality and cultivation will surely allow my master to be resurrected, and you might even achieve great success. Naturally, I cannot miss this opportunity."
After saying that, he raised his hand, and in an instant, all sorts of arrays lit up the entire mountain, layer upon layer, dazzling the eyes. In particular, the pure white phoenix tree in front of him emitted a dazzling light.
At the same time, both Yuan Qi and Feng Rong's expressions changed, as if they were enduring some kind of pain. Yuan Qi even knelt down on one knee, his heart filled with shock.
This is no ordinary spirit array, this is... a divine array!
"Father Yuan!" You You cried out in alarm, immediately summoning the magic sword from her storage pouch. Since returning from the Mingxin Sect, she had prepared a sword for herself. She hadn't used it before because she was afraid her skills would cause too much damage, but there were always situations that forced her to draw her sword!
Just as she was about to break free of the light prison surrounding her, Yueqiu seemed to have guessed her intention and coldly reminded her, "Sect Leader You, don't be in such a hurry. It's not your turn yet! You should think carefully about whether you really want to make a move now."
You You was startled. Looking up, she realized that the Earth-Shaking Cauldron that had trapped Yuan Qi had not only covered him but also herself within the light prison. She suddenly remembered that the cauldron seemed to have built-in anti-armor; her sword attacks had all been blocked last time, and Qiu Yue clearly knew this.
"I still have a great use for Sect Leader You's life force, so don't bring about your own destruction prematurely." After saying that, he turned his hand seals, and a large array lit up again under You You's feet. In an instant, she felt a tearing sensation all over her body, as if something was being pulled out of her body.
"Youyou!"
"Xiao You!"
Feng Rong and Yuan Qi exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
You You's heart sank. She knew without a doubt that this was the formation draining her life force. Gritting her teeth, she suppressed the pulling sensation, gripped her sword tightly, glanced at the Earth-Shaking Cauldron in the sky, and then spoke, "Do you really think the Earth-Shaking Cauldron's anti-armor can stop me?"
"What do you mean?" Qiu Yue was taken aback and frowned.
She didn't answer, but simply held her sword horizontally, directly sensing the special skills in her mind. These days, which game class doesn't have some kind of defense-breaking skill? She hadn't used them before because she hadn't even considered it. Did they really think she'd wasted all these years, never seriously studying how to use her skills?
He immediately shouted out his defense-breaking skill.
"Do you know how much immunity to crowd control and how much armor penetration I have?"
—Break through the heavens!
Damn, this lousy shouting almost made me sing the second half of the line.
The next moment, a massive surge of energy erupted from her body, sweeping outwards in all directions, only to instantly converge and gather into a single point, transforming into a beam of sword light that shot directly towards the Earth-Shaking Cauldron above. With a resounding clang, the entire translucent cauldron shattered instantly, like a cracked mirror, countless cracks spreading across its surface, breaking it into countless pieces.
Youyou didn't stop, but immediately leaped up, twirled her magic sword, and launched another attack.
"With no man in my heart, I naturally become a god when I draw my sword!"
With a single move, Sword God Without Heaven, he struck Qiu Yue outside the cauldron. The sword energy surged and swept across the entire Wushan Mountain in an instant, and it looked as if the sword energy was about to rush towards Qiu Yue.
He showed no panic or resistance; instead, his eyes widened, filled with—excitement?!
As if he had discovered some miracle, his eyes blazed with immense joy, and he burst into excited laughter, "Hahahaha, such power! You truly are no ordinary celestial maiden, possessing such immense power! You can definitely do it, you can definitely do it this time..."
Before he could finish speaking, Youyou's sword had already arrived and was about to strike him. The next moment, a bright light suddenly flashed on his body, like a reflected strong light. Although it did not force her sword move back, it made Youyou's vision blur for a moment, and she subconsciously squinted.
…………
Feng Yu's voice rang in my ears.
"Sect Master...why don't we rest on that stone bench over there? The Lord...should be out soon."
Youyou turned to look ahead, where the fluctuations of the formation still lingered. She was momentarily confused, but quickly came to her senses.
