Chu Chu roared in anger. As a Chongming bird, the ancient blood within her body began to boil. Her eyes flashed with a fiery light, and her wings suddenly spread out. A faint blue light flowed between her feathers, as if it could tear the void.
Ye Xuan also got up from the ground. Although her face was pale, there was an unyielding fire burning in her eyes.
As a young demon king, she inherited the immense power of the demon race and was now gathering her demonic energy, preparing to launch a new round of attacks. "Don't even think about harming Rong Lin and my friends!" she growled, her hands rapidly forming seals. The air around her began to distort, and a powerful magical force gathered momentum.
Rong Lin felt a mixture of emotions upon seeing this. He was grateful for his two companions' unwavering support, yet he was also concerned for their safety. But at this moment, he couldn't retreat, and certainly couldn't let his companions face this terrifying enemy alone. He took a deep breath, and the golden scales on his body began to shimmer. A power from an ancient mythical beast surged through him, illuminating the entire cave with golden light.
"Since you are looking for death, don't blame me for being rude!" The Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave sneered repeatedly, and his figure suddenly became blurred, as if he merged into the darkness, leaving only a pair of scarlet eyes flashing in the darkness, which made people feel chilled.
"Chu Chu, Ye Xuan, be careful of his illusions!" Rong Lin warned loudly. At the same time, he released a golden light wave, trying to break the darkness in the cave and illuminate the way forward for his companions.
Chu Chu snorted coldly, flapped her wings, and transformed into a streak of blue lightning, rushing straight towards the scarlet eyes. Her goal was clear: to break the core of the illusion of the Master of Ten Thousand Demons Cave.
However, the Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave would not sit still and wait for death. A black beam of light shot out from the darkness and collided with Chuchu's blue halo, erupting with a deafening roar.
Ye Xuan seized the opportunity to launch an attack. She clasped her hands together, silently chanting a spell. A brilliant beam of magical light shot out from her palms, directly hitting the physical body of the Ten Thousand Demon Cave Lord. However, the Ten Thousand Demon Cave Lord seemed to have foreseen everything. Just as the beam was about to touch him, he suddenly dodged the fatal blow.
"Hmph, a mere trifle!" The Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave sneered, and his figure reappeared. He had a black sword in his hand. Strange runes flowed on the sword, emitting a heart-pounding aura.
"The three of you will stay in this Ten Thousand Demons Cave today!" He shouted, swung his sword, and a black sword light cut through the space, going straight to the vital points of Rong Lin and the other two.
Rong Lin reacted quickly, dodging the sword's glare by sideways, but the residual force still caused him a sharp pain. He knew that this was not the way to go on. He had to find the Ten Thousand Demons Cave Lord's weakness and defeat him with a single strike.
Chuchu and Yexuan also understood this. They looked at each other and decided to join forces to launch an attack.
Chu Chu flapped her wings again and flew high. As her wings flapped, blue halos flew towards the Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, trying to interfere with his vision and judgment.
Ye Xuan concentrated all her magic power and quickly formed seals with her hands. A huge black magic array appeared under her feet. A strange light flashed in the magic array, and a powerful attraction emanated from it, trying to pull the Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave into it.
The Master of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave seemed to see through their plan, a sneer curling his lips. He blended into the darkness again, avoiding the halo's attack. At the same time, he swung his sword, and a black sword shadow flew out like a dragon, easily breaking Ye Xuan's magic array.
"Is this all you can do?" The Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave said contemptuously. He reappeared with the long sword in his hand pointing directly at Rong Lin and the other two.
Rong Lin, Chu Chu, and Ye Xuan were all exhausted, but there was no sign of retreat in their eyes. They knew that this was a critical moment of life and death, and they had to fight with all their might.
"Rong Lin, we can still fight!" Chu Chu shouted loudly, flapping her wings again, preparing to launch the final attack.
Ye Xuan also gritted his teeth, clenched his hands into fists, and the magic power in his body surged, ready to fight to the death with the Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave.
Rong Lin took a deep breath, and the golden scales on his body shimmered again. An unprecedented power surged within him. He roared, transformed into a golden light, and rushed straight towards the Master of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave.
The three of them joined forces and launched a final counterattack. Chu Chu's blue aura and Ye Xuan's black magic power intertwined, forming a powerful energy wave that directly hit the Lord of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave.
Rong Lin transformed into a golden sword shadow and attacked from the side, trying to kill the enemy with one sword.
However, the Master of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave seemed to have anticipated all of this. He dodged the attacks of the three with ease, and at the same time, he swung his sword, sending three black sword beams flying like lightning, striking Rong Lin, Chu Chu, and Ye Xuan respectively.
The three of them felt a sharp pain spread throughout their bodies, and their bodies flew out of the cave involuntarily and fell heavily to the ground.
They were vomiting blood and their bodies were covered with wounds. It was obvious that they were no longer able to fight.
"You are still too weak after all." The Master of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave slowly walked out of the cave entrance and looked at the three people lying on the ground, his eyes full of mockery and pride. "You can't even withstand a single attack from me, the Master of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, and you still want to rescue the Purple Sky Ancestor? It's simply a foolish dream!"
Chu Chu struggled to get up, her eyes filled with anger and unwillingness: "Don't even think about it! We will definitely come back to find you!"
The Master of the Ten Thousand Demons Cave roared with laughter. "You have no chance! I have refined the Primordial Spirit of the Purple Sky Ancestor, and his power has become a part of my Ten Thousand Demons Cave! Just wait to be trapped in this endless darkness forever!"
Ye Xuan and Rong Lin also climbed up one after another. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with determination and resoluteness. They knew that although they had been defeated at this moment, as long as they had breath left, they would never give up rescuing Zixiao Patriarch.
Rong Lin's voice was low and firm, like a faint lamp lit in the endless darkness, giving great comfort and strength to Chu Chu and Ye Xuan beside him.
"Let's go first and make other plans later." His words revealed an unquestionable determination. He then gently helped up the slightly staggering Chu Chu and Ye Xuan. The three of them snuggled up to each other and gradually moved away from the abyss shrouded in fear and despair - the Demonic Moon Cave.
After the three of them left the cave, the cool air outside was like a stream of clear spring water, washing away the fatigue and fear in their bodies.
They chose a secluded corner of the Demon Realm Palace, one rich in spiritual energy, and began to meditate and hold their breath, recovering from their injuries. The palace was filled with demonic energy, but the energy here seemed purer and gentler, greatly beneficial for healing.
Rong Lin closed his eyes and concentrated, with circles of faint blue light surrounding his body. It was the spiritual power in his body that was automatically running, repairing the damage caused by the battle.
Chuchu and Yexuan also entered a state of meditation. Their breathing gradually became steady, and their wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Especially Chuchu, as the one with the deepest cultivation among the three, she was not only able to recover quickly, but also secretly released a trace of gentle demonic energy to help Ye Xuan recover faster.
Ye Xuan asked, "What's the origin of this cave master? How could the three of us be defeated together?"
