Chapter 1097 The Last Ritual
Shi Heng said in a deep voice: "We must break the barrier as soon as possible, otherwise the innocent people inside will be sacrificed."
People from the surrounding Yunmiao Palace, Yaochi Holy Land, and other forces also spoke up: "That's right, what the Di family is doing now is unacceptable to heaven, we absolutely cannot let it go!"
Just as everyone was thinking about countermeasures, Xie Shiyuan suddenly covered the back of his neck, and felt a severe burning sensation at the moon mark.
She groaned, knelt on one knee, and silver light leaked out from between her fingers.
"Shi Yuan!" Luo Li hurriedly supported her.
Xie Shiyuan raised his head, his eyes gleaming with moonlight. "I... I saw a way to break the formation."
She staggered to her feet and pointed to a certain spot in the barrier: "There's a gap there. The secret technique of the Falling Moon Territory can temporarily open the passage."
Yue Wuchen was stunned. When did the secret arts of their Luoyue Territory become so powerful? This couldn't be right.
However, Luo Li knew that she had the token of the Moon Goddess on her, and Xie Shiyuan might have possessed a weak power of the Moon Goddess, but she obviously had not realized it yet.
Xie Shiyuan's expression was firm, "Uncle Yue, form the formation!"
Yue Wuchen immediately ordered: "Silver Moon Guards, listen up! Build the Moonlight Formation!"
Dozens of Silver Moon Guards quickly formed a formation, and the silver light gathered into a beam, shooting directly at the place where Xie Shiyuan pointed.
Xie Shiyuan stood in the center of the formation, forming seals with his hands. The moon mark on the back of his neck was fully revealed, turning into the shadow of a bright moon.
"The power of the moon, break the barrier!"
The silver light collided with the blood-red barrier, emitting a sharp tearing sound. The human face on the barrier's surface screamed shrilly before a crack was finally torn open.
At this moment, the monster in the air roared and wanted to rush down.
Luo Li pursed her lips, "Xiao Liu, Shiqi, Jin, the three of you go stop him! Don't be so stubborn!"
"Yes!" Three people appeared in an instant, transformed into their original forms and rushed towards the huge monster in the air without hesitation.
Luo Li looked at their backs, feeling worried.
"Let's go!" Shi Heng took the lead and rushed into the barrier, followed by everyone.
After entering the Imperial City, the scene before us was horrifying—corpses that had been drained of their blood were lying all over the streets, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
In the central square in the distance, Di Wuyou stood in the center of the altar, with countless struggling people at his feet.
He raised his hands high, and demonic energy continuously poured into the blood-red palace in the air.
"Stop!" Luo Li shouted angrily, and the Xuan Yue Sword turned into a stream of light and pierced Di Wuyou.
Di Wuyou sneered, waved his sleeves, and gathered his demonic energy into a shield to block the sword light: "Just in time, I will use your blood to complete the final ritual!"
Before he finished speaking, the door of the blood-red palace opened completely, and a figure in a black robe slowly walked out.
The terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire venue, and even a strong man like Shi Heng felt his breath stagnate.
"Welcome, Your Excellency!" Emperor Wuyou knelt down fanatically.
The black-robed man raised his head, revealing a handsome yet sinister face. He glanced at the crowd, finally stopping at Luo Li. "The Moon Goddess's aura... is interesting."
Luo Li gripped the Xuan Yue Sword tightly, feeling unprecedented pressure. This was definitely a true Saint Lord-level powerhouse!
The black-robed venerable raised his hand slightly, and a beam of black light shot directly at Luo Li.
At the critical moment, Xie Shiyuan flashed in front of Luo Li and unleashed the full force of the moonlight in his body.
"Bang——" Xie Shiyuan was knocked several feet away and vomited blood.
"Ten Yuanyang!" Luo Li's eyes were bloodshot.
The black-robed man raised his eyebrows slightly. "An unawakened successor to the Moon God? What a double blessing today."
Shi Heng and other nine-star leaders of the forces rushed forward with their swords, but the man's strength was too terrifying and could not break his defense at all.
The spiritual masters of the Di family also emerged from everywhere, surrounding Luo Li and the others who were entering the Imperial City.
At this critical moment, the clear cry of a phoenix suddenly came from the sky.
A stream of red light broke through the air and accurately hit the demon's arm.
"Old thing, what's the point of bullying the younger generation?" A lazy male voice sounded, and a domineering red-haired man stepped into the air, playing with a feather condensed from flames in his hand.
Yue Wuchen said in surprise: "Yes, Lord Feng!"
Feng Wuhen was even more excited: "Father!"
The Phoenix Lord winked at his son, then looked at the man in black robes: "After so many years, you, the Demon God Temple, are still so shameless."
The black-robed man's face was gloomy: "Feng Yan, you are looking for death!"
The two Saint King-level powerful men fought in an instant, and the sky was divided into red and black.
Shi Heng seized the opportunity and shouted, "Now is the time to destroy the altar!"
Everyone immediately rushed to the central square.
Di Wuyou roared and ordered the strong men of the Di family to stop them, and the two sides fought fiercely in the square.
Although all major forces have sent people here, this is the main city of the Di family after all, and many people of the Di family have been transformed by demonic energy, so the two sides were unable to determine the winner for a while.
Luo Li's Xuan Yue Sword hummed in her hand, and her eyes were like lightning, locking onto Di Wuyou.
The once invincible Patriarch of the Di family is now covered in demonic patterns and his eyes are filled with madness.
"Di Wuyou, stop!" Luo Li said sternly, "Do you know what you are doing? The entire Di family will be destroyed in your hands!"
Di Wuyou sneered, "Stop? My Di family has been planning for a thousand years, waiting for this day! When the Lord Demon God arrives, the entire continent will surrender to the Lord Demon God and my Di family!"
"You are so stubborn!" Luo Li said no more, turned the sword tip, and poured out his soul power.
The three nine-star great lords of the three major forces, Jiuding Academy, Yaochi Holy Land, and Yunmiao Heavenly Palace, narrowed their eyes and said, "Young Master Luo, leave this old thing to us."
After saying this, without waiting for Luo Li to reply, he moved like the wind and went to meet Di Wuyou.
At the same time, Xie Shiyuan struggled to get up from the ground.
The power of the Moon Goddess in her body was awakening, and the moon mark on the back of her neck became brighter and brighter.
She looked at the people struggling in pain on the altar, and an unprecedented power surged in her body.
Luo Li pursed her lips, immediately took out the Moon Goddess's token, and approached Xie Shiyuan at lightning speed, embedding the Moon Goddess's token into her heart.
Then, when Xie Shiyuan was confused, he threw him directly into the place of Moon God inheritance in the Chaos Jade.
Yue Wuchen's eyes widened, "Where's Shi Yuan?"
Luo Li glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "She should be out soon. Don't worry, this is a great thing for her. We can now focus on fighting the enemy!"
Although Yue Wuchen was full of doubts, the situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, so he could only suppress his worries. Under his command, the Silver Moon Guards formed the Silver Moon Sword Formation. The sword energy was like frost, forcing the approaching Di family spiritual master back several steps.
On the other side, the duel between Feng Yan and the Black Robe Master had reached a fever pitch. The sky was torn apart by the red and black forces, and spider-web-like cracks continuously appeared in the space. The falling rubble was turned into powder by the burning of the demonic energy and the Phoenix True Fire.
Luo Li took advantage of the chaos on the battlefield, and the Xuan Yue Sword turned into thousands of cold rays, aiming straight at Di Ya's throat.
