"You...you are..." This aura is clearly divine power, but why would a god appear in the demon realm?
Feng Rong and Yuan Qi had no time to care whether they were surprised or not. After dealing with the annoying demons around them, they ignored the city lords in the air and rushed directly into the sword wall, heading towards You You's direction.
The city lords were stunned, completely unable to react. But they quickly forgot about the two, because one of them had already seized the opportunity while everyone was still in a daze, grabbed the golden sword intent above the sword wall, and turned to flee into the distance. In their haste, the city lords didn't bother to confirm the two's identities and all gave chase, quickly clearing the area outside the sword wall.
"Youyou, you didn't..." Feng Rong was the first to rush into the sword wall, but immediately saw the two people embracing each other within the demonic energy barrier, their expressions of worry instantly turning into anger. She stepped forward and forcefully tore them apart, pulling Youyou back into her arms, glaring at Gong Xi, "What are you doing?"
Gong Xi, who was inexplicably pushed aside, was stunned for a moment and forgot to maintain the demonic energy barrier. She watched as the sword energy from all around was about to sweep over her. Fortunately, Yuan Qi, who had just caught up, was reliable enough. He quickly made a hand seal, and a defensive formation was formed in an instant, protecting the group again.
"Xiao You, are you alright?" Yuan Qi then turned around and looked at her.
You nodded. "It's alright."
"You...you are..." Gong Xi finally reacted, looking at the two in shock. Although there was a wall of swords between them, she had clearly seen Feng Rong's attack and naturally guessed some of it. But then she suddenly remembered something and looked at Feng Rong angrily, saying, "What do you want to do? Let go of Ayou!"
"You think you can just let go? I won't. What can you do about it?" Feng Rong had disliked her for a long time. Not only did she not let go, but she hugged her even tighter, her face full of smugness.
Gong Xi was furious, her demonic energy surging, and she was about to take action to snatch the person away.
"Wait a minute..." Youyou had a headache. She glared at the troublemaker and pulled the hand off her waist to explain, "City Lord, they are my companions."
"Companions?" Her surging demonic energy subsided abruptly. She examined the two closely and then recalled that when she first met Ayou in Crimson Jade City, there were indeed two other people with him, but their identities...
"You...are gods!"
"So what if it is?" Feng Rong replied directly. Anyway, she had just used her divine power, so there was no point in arguing now.
Gong Xi's expression darkened, but surprisingly, she showed no aversion to their identities, let alone any intention to attack. She merely tightened her grip at her sides, then resumed her aloof city lord demeanor, glancing at the surrounding sword wall and saying, "Since we're companions, let's first figure out how to get out of this sword wall." Entering through this outer sword wall is easy, but getting out is difficult. She might not be able to manage alone with A-You, but with three people, it's worth a try.
"No!" You You suddenly objected, pointing to the even denser wall of sword energy behind her. "We're not going out, we're going in!" The Yin Book is still inside!
"What?!" Gong Xi exclaimed in surprise, her eyes widening as she looked at her. "Ayou, these are ancient sword energies. We haven't gone deep enough to be able to block them for now. The longer we stay, the stronger these sword energies will become. If we don't get out quickly, we'll all be in danger, let alone going inside." If this sword wall were so easy to break through, the Demon Realm wouldn't have only produced one Demon King in all these years.
You You frowned and looked at Yuan Qi questioningly. Yuan Qi nodded and said, "The sword energy around here is much stronger than when we came in. We really can't stay here for long."
"Isn't there any other way to get in?" Youyou asked.
Yuan Qi was taken aback for a moment. Seeing her serious expression, he immediately guessed the location of the Yin Book, which was probably inside these sword walls. After thinking for a moment, he replied, "Perhaps we can observe the patterns of these sword energies here and see if there are any flaws."
"The Demon Netherworld Sacred Realm has existed for so many years, and countless city lords have tried to break through this sword energy. How could there be any flaws?!" Gong Xi said coldly. "Even those villains of the Dragon Clan sacrificed their own kind to force their way in back then."
The three fell silent. Was the sword energy really that strong?
Youyou scratched her head. She really didn't think there was anything special about this sword energy. There were ways to break it, and she needed to find the Yin Book. If she really couldn't break it here, she would have to try to force it open with her skills. At that time, she should...
etc!
Skill?
Youyou was startled and opened her eyes wide to look at the dense wall of swords in front of her. It wasn't very clear when Gong Xi used black demonic energy to summon the barrier, but now that it was Yuan's transparent array, the sword energy outside was clearly visible, even the direction in which each sword energy passed...
"Don't you think the direction of these sword energies... looks familiar?" she asked subconsciously.
Yuan Qi turned his head and looked at it, then shook his head and said, "I have never seen it before."
"Then... what if all the sword energy were transformed into spiritual swords, increasing the speed by dozens of times?" Youyou continued.
"Speed?" They looked at the wall of sword energy again, and the next moment, both of them widened their eyes and immediately realized what was happening.
“This is…” Yuan Qi exclaimed in shock.
Feng Rong blurted out, "It's your swordsmanship that doesn't involve men!"
Youyou: "..."
(???????????)
What do you mean by "swordsmanship without men"? I've said it so many times, it's just a skill announcement. Her skill clearly has a name, it's called "Sword God Without Heaven," okay?
Youyou was completely baffled. She finally understood why these sword energy walls seemed so familiar at first glance. When she practiced her attack skills, she had meticulously studied the entire operation and trajectory of sword moves. The way these sword energies worked wasn't just similar, it was exactly the same!
“In that case… we will have a chance to go in.” Yuan Qi nodded affirmatively. Although he did not know why the way these sword energies operated was the same as Xiao You’s moves, he knew the direction of the sword energies. As long as they were fast enough and avoided them in advance, it would not be difficult to break through these sword walls and enter.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's rush in!" Youyou said directly.
"Xiao You, take a look and see which sword energy is closest to the starting stance of the sword move?" Yuan Qi asked.
She observed carefully for a moment, then pointed to a corner not far away and said, "There."
“Alright, let’s start from there.” Yuan Qi nodded and instructed solemnly, “Xiao You, remind me of the direction of the sword energy, and I’ll help you calculate a safe location. The sword energy is dense here, so we must be fast enough and not hesitate at all.”
The group nodded. Although Gong Xi hadn't understood the sword technique at first, she knew they had a way to get in. Thinking that You You's cultivation was the lowest and worried she wouldn't be able to keep up, she was about to reach out to help her. But Feng Rong, standing beside her, acted first, pulling her close and glaring at her like she was a thief.
Gong Xi: "..."
This god race that appeared out of nowhere is so annoying!
