Chapter 619 Spiritual Vein Fusion
Chapter 619 Spiritual Vein Fusion
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stood side by side, their spiritual pressure surging around them, as if to shatter the Heart-Searching Hall. The test of the three levels of the Heart-Searching Hall just now was like a storm of the soul, stirring up the most secret corners of their hearts. But at this moment, the choices and struggles in those illusions turned into a determined light in their eyes.
The light in the hall was flowing, and in Yun Yao's palm, the calamity fire jumped and flickered, as if cheering for something. And beside Chu Mochen, the black ice was overflowing with cold air, reflecting the calamity fire, forming a strange and harmonious scene. They could clearly feel that each other's spiritual veins were resonating at an unprecedented frequency, as if they were relatives who had been separated for many years and finally reunited at this moment.
"Yao'er, I can feel that our spiritual vein...it is changing!" Chu Mochen's voice was a little excited and a little shocked. He looked at Yun Yao, his eyes full of affection and surprise.
Yun Yao nodded slightly. She also felt this powerful force surging in her body. She closed her eyes and used her heart to feel the rhythm of the spiritual vein. In a trance, she seemed to see a golden light belt running through her and Chu Mochen's bodies, tightly connecting them. On this light belt, countless ancient runes flashed. It was the inheritance mark of the Yunhua Sect, and it was shining brightly at this moment.
"Is this the backup plan my mother left behind?" Yun Yao whispered softly. She recalled the scene when she saw her mother in the illusion of the fragments of the Burning Heart Mirror. Her mother resolutely split the spiritual vein into two, one half merged into her blood, giving her the power to survive and grow in this world of cultivation; the other half was sealed into Chu Mochen's body, so that he would silently take on the responsibility of protecting her without knowing it. Now, after many hardships, the two spiritual veins are finally going to merge into one.
At this moment, the light in their palms became more and more dazzling, and an ancient and mysterious wheel slowly emerged - the Wheel of Heaven. On the wheel, runes flickered like stars. Seven grooves were scattered around, and six of them were embedded with fragments of the glowing Heart Burning Mirror. Each fragment seemed to carry a heavy history, and it was humming at the moment, as if telling the grievances and hatreds of the past.
Yun Yao's eyes fell on the roulette wheel, and she thought to herself, "There's only one left."
However, when she tried to find the whereabouts of the last fragment, a chill rose from her spine. The voice of the system suddenly sounded in her mind, cold and mechanical: "It is detected that the last fragment of the Burning Heart Mirror is in Liu Yan'er's body. She has been parasitized by the residual soul of the Burning Heaven Ancestor and has become a walking container. The host must act with caution, this situation is extremely dangerous."
Yun Yao's face changed. She never thought that the last fragment would be on Liu Yan'er. This woman who had been at loggerheads with her in the secular world and had been her enemy many times in the cultivation world, was now reduced to such a situation. She turned to look at Chu Mochen, only to see that he also frowned, his eyes full of worry.
"Yan'er... How could she be like this?" Yun Yao felt a complex emotion in her heart, including regret, hatred, and a hint of pity. Although Liu Yan'er had done many evil things before, she was ultimately a person who was teased by fate.
"I'm afraid that the Burning Heaven Palace had already set up this trap. Yan'er's obsession was too deep, and they took advantage of it." Chu Mochen said in a deep voice. He clenched the black ice knife in his hand. "No matter what, we must get the fragment and stop the conspiracy of the Burning Heaven Palace."
Yun Yao took a deep breath and nodded, "You are right, let's go without further delay!"
The two of them flashed and turned into two streams of light, passing through the Heart-Searching Hall. As soon as they left the hall, they saw dark clouds covering the sky, lightning and thunder. Black demonic energy surged like a dragon, sweeping towards them. In the center of the demonic energy, Liu Yan'er stood in mid-air, her eyes had turned red-gold, revealing endless madness and evil. Her hair fluttered wantonly, like a puppet controlled by a demon.
"Yun Yao, Chu Mochen, do you think you can stop me after passing the three levels of self-examination? You are too naive!" Liu Yan'er's voice was sharp and piercing, as if it came from the Nine Nether Hell, echoing between heaven and earth. She raised her hand and waved it, and a black demonic flame roared out, heading straight for Yun Yao and the others.
Yun Yao's eyes shone, and she instantly raised the Tribulation Fire Sword in her hand, facing the devil flame. The Tribulation Fire and the devil flame collided with each other, making a loud noise and sparks flying. She could feel that the devil flame contained the powerful force of the remnant soul of the Burning Sky Ancestor, and it was extremely corrosive. Even though her Tribulation Fire Sword was blessed by the power of the spirit vein, it was suppressed by the devil flame and its light dimmed a little.
"Chu Mochen, be careful of her evil spirit, there's something strange!" Yun Yao warned loudly.
Chu Mochen responded, and the black ice knife danced, the knife energy was crisscrossed, and the approaching demonic energy was shattered. He flashed, and rushed forward, attacking Liu Yan'er. Seeing this, Liu Yan'er laughed wildly, and her body flashed strangely, avoiding Chu Mochen's attack, and at the same time, she slapped out with her backhand, and the demonic energy in her palm surged, pressing towards Chu Mochen like a tidal wave.
Chu Mochen was not in a hurry. He activated the Xuanbing Spiritual Veins in his body at full power, and an ice wall instantly condensed in front of him. The magic palm slapped on the ice wall, making a crackling sound. Although the ice wall temporarily blocked the attack, it was already covered with cracks.
"Humph, you guys think you can fight me?" Liu Yan'er snorted coldly and attacked again. She waved her hands, and the demonic shadows were so thick that they covered Yun Yao and Chu Mochen for a moment.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other, and they were in perfect harmony, and simultaneously summoned their life-saving magic weapons. The Jiehuo Sword and Xuanbing Knife drew a beautiful arc in the air, and the light intertwined to form a powerful protective light curtain. The demon shadows collided with the light curtain, making bursts of roars, but could not break through this layer of defense.
"Liu Yan'er, wake up! Don't be controlled by the residual soul of the old ancestor Fentian anymore. You are helping the evil!" Yun Yao shouted loudly, trying to awaken a trace of consciousness in Liu Yan'er.
Liu Yan'er seemed to have not heard anything. The madness in her eyes became even more intense. She suddenly rose taller and muttered something. Then, a huge demonic shadow emerged from behind her. It was the shadow of the Burning Heaven Ancestor. The shadow was a hundred feet tall, surrounded by demonic energy, and a pair of blood-red eyes looked down, as if looking down at an ant.
"Today is the day you die!" Liu Yan'er's voice overlapped with the voice of Patriarch Fentian, making people's eardrums hurt.
Yun Yao's heart sank. She knew that Liu Yan'er was completely under control at this moment, and it was almost impossible to wake her up. She turned to look at Chu Mochen and said firmly, "Chen, we can't hold back any longer. We must fight quickly and decisively."
Chu Mochen nodded, he took a deep breath, the power of the spiritual veins in his body surged wildly. The black ice knife shone brightly, the runes on the blade flickered, and a strong cold air spread out, freezing the surrounding demonic energy a little.
"Okay, let's go together!" Chu Mochen shouted, and rushed towards Liu Yan'er at the same time as Yun Yao.
The two used all their skills, and the fire and the ice cooperated with each other, attacking like a tide. Every attack was full of their determination and courage, trying to break through the defense of Liu Yan'er and the residual soul of the Burning Sky Ancestor. However, the power of the residual soul was beyond imagination. Although they did not lose the upper hand for a while, it was difficult for them to find a flaw to deliver a fatal blow.
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, the figure of the Lord of Burning Heaven Palace suddenly appeared above the battlefield. He was dressed in a black robe embroidered with golden runes, and exuded a majestic and evil aura. Behind him, the huge main mirror of the Burning Heart Mirror was suspended. The mirror was like a black sun, emitting a strange light. In the mirror, Yun Yao's mother's pale face was clearly visible, and her eyes were full of worry and anxiety.
"Hmph, you want to get the last fragment and save this woman? Dream on!" The Lord of Fentian Palace laughed wildly. He raised his hand and a black beam of light shot out from his palm and headed straight for Yun Yao and the others.
Yun Yao sensed the danger and hurriedly dodged with Chu Mochen. The beam of light brushed past the corners of their clothes and hit a mountain behind them, instantly smashing the mountain into pieces.
“Palace Master, you are so unscrupulous, aren’t you afraid of backlash from Heaven?” Yun Yao asked angrily.
The Lord of Burning Heaven Palace seemed to have heard a huge joke. He laughed so hard that he fell backwards. "Heavenly Dao? What is Heavenly Dao in front of my Burning Heaven Palace! When I gather all seven pieces of Burning Heart Mirror, revive the ancestor, and reshape Heavenly Dao, the entire cultivation world will be in the pocket of my Burning Heaven Palace!"
After that, he attacked again, and black runes rained down on Yun Yao and the others. These runes contained powerful restraining power, and once hit, they would probably be trapped and unable to move.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen did not dare to be careless. They flashed and dodged the rune attacks. At the same time, they were also looking for opportunities to counterattack. Suddenly, Yun Yao had an idea. She thought of the feeling when her spiritual veins merged in the Heart-Searching Hall before, the wonderful state of being connected with Chu Mochen's mind and power.
"Chen, let's merge the power of our spiritual veins once again and see if we can break this deadlock!" Yun Yao shouted loudly.
Chu Mochen's heart moved when he heard this, and he immediately understood what Yun Yao meant. The two looked at each other, closed their eyes at the same time, and mobilized the spiritual veins in their bodies. In an instant, their spiritual veins resonated again, and a golden light enveloped them. The Jiehuo Sword and Xuanbing Knife automatically flew up in the air, entwined with each other, and the light became more dazzling.
"In the name of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen, we will merge our spiritual veins and defeat the powerful enemy together!" Yun Yao and Chu Mochen shouted in unison.
As their shouts fell, the Jiehuo Sword and the Xuanbing Knife merged into a "Heaven-Defying Sword" that shone with gold and silver. Runes surged on the sword, as if containing endless power of heaven and earth. Yun Yao stretched out her hand to grasp the hilt of the sword, and a powerful force surged into her body. She felt as if she could contend with heaven and earth at this moment.
“Master of Burning Heaven Palace, today is the day of your destruction!” Yun Yao held the sword against heaven in hand, pointing it at the Master of Burning Heaven Palace, her eyes full of determination.
After saying that, she flashed and turned into a stream of light, rushing towards the Lord of Burning Heaven Palace. With a wave of the Sword of Against Heaven, a golden and silver sword energy whistled out, and the demonic energy dissipated wherever it passed.
When the master of Burning Heaven Hall saw this, his face changed. He did not expect that Yun Yao and the other person could combine to create such a powerful force. He hurriedly activated the main mirror of Burning Heart Mirror, trying to resist Yun Yao's attack. Above the main mirror, a bright light shone, and a black light curtain emerged.
Yun Yao's sword energy slashed on the light curtain, making a loud noise. The light curtain trembled violently, and cracks appeared one after another. Seeing this, the master of Fentian Palace was shocked. He quickly increased his power output to try to repair the cracks.
At the same time, Chu Mochen was not idle either. While Yun Yao attracted the attention of the Lord of Fentian Palace, he flashed and attacked Liu Yan'er. He condensed an ice spike in his hand and shot it towards Liu Yan'er's forehead. Liu Yan'er sensed the danger and wanted to dodge, but it was too late. The ice spike instantly hit her forehead, and Liu Yan'er screamed and staggered back.
At this moment, Yun Yao seized the opportunity, and she swung the Sword of Against Heaven again, and a more powerful sword energy slashed out. This sword energy directly broke through the light curtain of the main mirror of the Burning Heart Mirror and slashed towards the Lord of Burning Heaven. The Lord of Burning Heaven could not dodge in time and was slashed on the shoulder by the sword energy, and a stream of blood splashed out.
"Ah! How dare you hurt me? I will make you pay the price!" The Lord of Burning Heaven Hall roared, his eyes full of murderous intent. He ignored his injuries and once again urged the remaining soul of the Burning Heaven Ancestor to launch a more fierce attack.
However, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen had already gained the upper hand. With the power of their merged spiritual veins and their tacit cooperation, they suppressed the Lord of Burning Heaven Palace and Liu Yan'er. But they also knew that this battle was far from over, and the final victory or defeat was still in a matter of a thought...
