"The place where the desolate soul appeared is the same place where the Gate of Life reopened a few days ago." Mo Jin said with a solemn expression, "I heard that this time the one who entered the country was led by an exiled soul. This time the enemy has thousands of troops. If we don't have a strategy, things will be very bad."
"Hmph. You're just patting yourself on the back! It's not like you absolutely need divination techniques!" Mozi said with a sneer.
“If you were useful, I wouldn’t have left you here! I think you…” Mo Jin’s expression suddenly changed drastically. “This, how is this possible?!”
Mo Li looked at him in confusion, only to see a light emanating from his chest, and the character "Jin" suddenly appeared before their eyes.
Mo Ling exclaimed, "This is the cancellation of the companion weapon contract!"
Mo Jin felt a chill run down her spine. "Oh no! Her breath is weak; she's probably lost this battle!"
Without a second thought, Mo Li grabbed his collar and said, "Let's go! Let's provide support!"
"What?" Mo Jin looked at Mo Li in surprise, and Mo Ling also looked at Mo Li with a nervous expression.
"Since you say your divination techniques are usable, then come with me to fight the enemy!" Mo Li said calmly, turning to look at Mo Di. "If you wish, you can come along too!"
Mo Di stared blankly at Mo Li. Had this guy gone mad? Without his master's orders or superiors' plans, he was going to the battlefield?!
They have absolutely no organization or discipline!
“Okay! I’ll go with you!” Mo Jin said without hesitation.
“I’ll go too!” Mo Zhai gritted his teeth and nodded.
"Are you all crazy? Fighting beyond your level is a serious crime!" Mo Ling said urgently.
“Mo Ling, you should know how powerful they became after occupying a stronghold in the Nine Springs Realm tens of thousands of years ago?” Mo Jin said with a serious expression.
"This..." Mo Ling was at a loss for words.
"Protecting our home is the most important thing. I'll take full responsibility for everything!" Mo Li said. "Let's not delay, let's go!"
"Wait, do I still have a barrier...?"
Click—
Before Mo Jin could finish speaking, Mo Li turned around and waved at him. The sound of the void shattering echoed in his ears, and then he heard Mo Li calmly say, "Now it's okay."
The three swallowed hard. He actually broke through a barrier left by a Punisher! Is this guy that strong?
Looking at Mo Li's adorable fox ears and her stunningly beautiful yet harmless face, it's truly hard to imagine!
——
It was still that forbidden area, still that gray world, only now the land was stained with blood, a sight that was glaringly unbearable!
Roar roar roar—
Mo Chen squinted and looked up at the red ghosts flying in the sky. He felt the bloodthirsty killing intent emanating from them and couldn't help but frown.
"I never imagined the Wild Spirit would be so powerful; we are utterly powerless to subdue it!"
The Punishers, their bodies covered in blood, looked solemnly at the blood-stained earth beside them.
At this moment, a woman in a blue robe stepped forward, holding a scepter. "Behind us lies the Nine Springs Realm. If we abandon it, the tragedy of tens of thousands of years ago will repeat itself!"
"Mo Ran is right! We can't give up!"
"Yes! Let's fight them!"
"Let's all use our best skills and fight him to the death!"
Mo Chen stood outside the crowd, ignoring everyone else, and silently watched the dark figure who was high above and in the lead.
“He’s waiting, waiting for someone who can fight him, not the Punisher present, and certainly not me…” Mo Chen frowned. “Who is he waiting for…”
Some of the Punishers were displeased as they watched Mo Chen's figure.
"Why is this guy still here?"
"Fine, considering he helped a lot just now, let him come along!"
"Hmph, I'm afraid he'll run away at the last minute like before!"
"Ignore him, let's form a battle formation and be wary of enemy charges."
Hearing his comrade behind him say this, Mo Chen didn't care. He wiped the blood off his face, which belonged to one of his teammates, and looked at the sky with some unease...
Just as the two sides were facing each other and about to start fighting again, the teleportation array suddenly lit up. This must be the Punishers being sent by their superiors to help. The other Punishers' eyes lit up immediately!
But when the light faded, the three people who appeared before everyone made the Punishers even more desperate.
"Mozi? What are you doing here!" Someone who recognized Mozi shouted, "This is no place for you! Go back right now!"
Despite being mocked, Mo Zhai looked at everyone's wounded bodies, his eyes reddening, and said, "I won't leave! I want to protect our homeland with you!"
Everyone was stunned, looking at Mo Di with surprise. Anyone who could refer to the Nine Springs Realm as their home must have a deep affection for it.
"Mo Di begs for a battle!" Mo Di, with his handsome face and a touch of youthful innocence, spoke.
"Alright, alright, just go and set up the formation right now!"
“Yes, Master!” Mo Di said excitedly when he saw an elder in the crowd speak.
"Mo Jin, you, why did you come along too?" Mo Ran asked, her face a mixture of anxiety and exasperation. "With you here, I can't protect you at all!"
"Am I only fit to be protected by you? I also want to protect you one day! With my wisdom!" Mo Jin's face was defiant, yet her brows revealed tenderness. "And besides, if you die, will you leave me to live alone?"
"You...you're so stupid!" Mo Ran's eyes reddened slightly. This guy coming at this time was practically suicide!
Before they could say anything more, someone suddenly exclaimed, "The Spirit of the Wilderness has come down!"
Everyone looked up at the sound and saw the ghostly figure descending before them. Mo Chen looked at the ghostly figure with a tense expression.
"You've finally arrived."
Mo Chen stared wide-eyed at the ghostly figure; the voice was all too familiar!
"I thought it was you, but I never imagined you'd become something that's neither human nor ghost." Mo Li stepped forward and said.
The moment Mo Chen saw Mo Li, he trembled. "He's waiting for Mo Li!"
As the ghostly figure dissipated, Bu Yunrui's face became even more ferocious. "Gu Liyan!"
Mo Li looked at him coldly. "What do you want to do now?"
"Hahaha! It really is the Gu Liyan I know!"
Bu Yunrui burst into laughter, his eyes bloodshot and his face contorted with madness as he spoke, "I was punished by you, judged and sent to the Yellow Springs, the torment of the eighteen levels of hell made every day feel like a year. Fortunately, I was born with a demonic body, my soul and demonic energy are naturally one. You wanted to refine my soul, but you didn't know that I used your hands to refine my own soul. Now, my demonic power is complete..."
"I've brought the souls of the soldiers who died for me here, and all I want is to fight you!" Bu Yunrui said, looking at Mo Li with a crazed expression.
Ignoring Mo Chen's gaze, Mo Li stepped forward, swiftly took out the Demon King Mask, and slowly put it on her face.
Everyone looked at the white-clad, silver-haired man standing in front of them, his back to them, and felt a deep sense of awe.
Among them, Mo Di and Mo Jin looked at Mo Li with shock, and then they heard Mo Li's cold voice resound across the blood-stained land and under the gray sky!
"Mo Li, the Punisher, accept the challenge!"
