Chapter 588: The Seal Broken
Chapter 588: The Seal Broken
The sky was torn apart, dark clouds rolled like an upside-down raging sea, and demonic energy and spiritual energy intertwined into a hazy fog.
In the illusion, the figures of human cultivators and demons intertwined, the sound of swords clashing was as crisp as bells, and the light of magic spread like fireworks - it seemed fierce, but there was no real bloodiness.
Someone swung a sword to slash at the shadow, and a demon claw tore through the morning mist. Both sides looked dazed, as if trapped in a nightmare. And more shadows continued to pounce from the dark cloud, as if there was no end.
"What, what is that..."
The young disciple guarding the formation was shaking with his sword in his hand.
He had only been a disciple for three years and was not even proficient in wielding a sword, yet at this moment he witnessed the demon tribe's attack with his own eyes.
The young disciple gritted his teeth, but his legs couldn't help but weaken. He had never thought that the battles in the cultivation world would be so...horrible.
On the top of Jiange, Chu Ziyu and Mo Xue sat opposite each other, with a pot of clear wine on the table, the wine reflecting the skylight.
"Take a break. The show will begin soon."
"Tsk, you are quite stable."
In the illusion, Chu Ziyu's long-sleeved robe had been soaked in the demon's blood, and the blade of his green sword had three gaps.
He knelt on one knee on the eaves, holding his right shoulder tightly with his left hand - there were five deep wounds visible to the bone torn by Mo Xue's fox claws, and blood kept dripping through his fingers, forming a thin stream on the glazed tile.
Half of Mo Xue's body was pierced by the sword energy, his silver hair was stuck with solidified blood, and three of his nine fox tails were broken, revealing eerie white bones at the broken ends.
The most fatal wound was in the abdomen - the penetrating wound left by the Qingfeng Sword was still oozing blood, and every breath brought out tiny bubbles of blood.
The three demon elders formed a triangle formation and surrounded Chu Ziyu in the center.
The oldest elder, the Rhino Horn, had both arms broken, but he bit his life-definition demon pill with his teeth, and his burning blood turned into red chains that wrapped around Chu Ziyu's legs;
Elder Green Snake's abdomen was cut open by the sword energy, but he still held Chu Ziyu's left arm tightly; the last Elder Black Turtle was the worst - his tortoise shell was completely shattered, and his back was covered in blood, but the forbidden technique activated by his burning soul had reached a critical moment.
“My Immortal Lord… cannot leave…” Elder Black Turtle was bleeding from all seven orifices, and his shattered soul turned into a green flame, engulfing the three people and Chu Ziyu.
Mo Xue took the opportunity to transform into a streak of blood and pounced towards the Demon Locking Tower. Her nine tails completely exploded, and each tail hair oozed blood, leaving a long trail of blood behind her.
When he was close to the tower, he suddenly opened his mouth and spat out the demon pill——
"boom!!!"
The moment the demon pill collided with the barrier, the entire Demon Locking Tower shook violently.
The runes on the tower body exploded one after another, and the black iron base cracked into spider-web-like cracks. The demon blood that had been deposited for thousands of years suddenly boiled and turned into blood mist that gushed out from the cracks.
Chu Zi's jade eyes were about to split.
He bit his tongue hard, and a mouthful of blood sprayed onto the Qingfeng Sword. The sword suddenly emitted a dazzling green light, forcibly breaking the forbidden techniques of the three elders.
Elder Rhino Horn was exploded into a bloody mist on the spot, Elder Green Snake was cut in half, and the only remaining Elder Black Turtle was pierced through the forehead by sword energy.
But it was too late.
The seal at the bottom of the Demon Locking Tower has loosened, and the screams of countless demon spirits pierce the sky.
Chu Ziyu staggered and tried to get up, his Qingfeng sword inserted three inches into the ground, and the sword reflected his paper-pale face - but before he could stand firmly, a fishy and sweet taste suddenly surged in his throat.
"cough......"
Blood flowed from his lips, dripped down his jaw, and spread a glaring red on his frosty white collar. He raised his hand to wipe it, but his cuffs were already soaked with blood, and he rubbed more blood on his face instead.
The backlash from the seal in the body was more severe than expected.
The severe pain from his meridians being broken made his eyes go black, and when his knees hit the ground heavily, he heard the crisp sound of his bones breaking.
But compared to the demonic power raging in his body, this pain was almost insignificant - those demonic souls that were forcibly suppressed were gnawing at his spiritual veins, and every breath he took was like swallowing tens of millions of steel needles.
“Uncle Master——!”
The heart-wrenching cries of the sect's disciples could be heard in the distance.
Chu Ziyu wanted to respond, but when he opened his mouth he spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with pieces of internal organs.
He tried to grip the hilt of the sword, but his fingers were no longer under his control. His spasming knuckles were bluish-white and trembling like the wings of a dying butterfly.
The most embarrassing thing is that he is actually laughing at this moment.
The corners of his bloodstained lips were slightly raised, and against the gradually dimming sword pattern between his eyebrows, there was a kind of fragmented beauty.
The Qingfeng Sword suddenly let out a mournful cry, and the last rune on the sword... shattered.
Mo Xue's situation was equally bad. He forced the demon pill to reveal his true form - a blood-soaked white fox with its front paws twisted into strange angles.
The Demon Locking Tower suddenly made a thunderous sound of collapse. The black iron gate at the bottom floor cracked for the first time.
