The fluctuations of magical energy grew increasingly intense, causing the entire room to tremble violently, as if it might collapse at any moment. I knew that the intruder meant harm, and I had to think of a way to respond quickly. Carefully, I tucked the jade pendant into my bosom to ensure its safety, then swiftly summoned the spiritual energy within me to set up a defensive barrier around the room.
Just as the barrier was completed, the door burst open with a powerful force, splintering wood flying everywhere. A figure cloaked in black, Mo Xiu, appeared at the entrance, exuding a strong aura of dark magic that spread like black smoke, making it almost impossible to breathe. "Ling Yao, hand over the pendant!" Mo Xiu growled, his voice echoing like thunder in the room.
I looked at him coldly and replied, "You think you deserve the pendant?" Mo Xiu sneered and suddenly lunged at me with lightning speed, appearing right before me in an instant. I sidestepped just in time to barely evade his attack, but his magical energy grazed my body, sending a sharp pain coursing through me.
I couldn't afford to be careless. Quickly forming hand seals, I unleashed a defensive technique from the Immortal Secret Technique. Waves of purple light surged from my hands, forming a solid shield in front of me. Seeing this, Mo Xiu launched another assault; his hands waved as dark blades of magic rained down upon me, striking against my shield and sending up bursts of purple sparks.
"Hmph, mere tricks," I scoffed, increasing my output of spiritual energy. The shield's glow intensified immediately. Seizing the moment between his attacks, I countered with a concentrated burst of purple sword energy that shot toward Mo Xiu like a sharp sword. He dodged hastily but still suffered a cut on his arm; black blood oozed from the wound and dripped onto the ground with a hissing sound that corroded the surface.
Mo Xiu's eyes flashed with anger and murderous intent upon seeing this. He suddenly let out a howl that pierced the sky, and his magical power erupted like a volcano. His body began to transform—muscles bulging, skin hardening like iron, and sharp horns sprouting from his head, giving him a terrifying appearance. "Ling Yao, today is your day to die!" Mo Xiu roared as he charged at me again, his attacks more ferocious than before, each strike carrying the power to obliterate everything.
I silently cursed; Mo Xiu's strength far exceeded my expectations. If this continued, I would surely be no match for him. But I couldn't back down. Gritting my teeth, I pressed on with the fight. In the heat of battle, an idea struck me about the clues within the pendant; perhaps I could use it against Mo Xiu.
While dodging his attacks, I attempted to channel my spiritual energy into the pendant in hopes of awakening its power. As I infused it with energy, the pendant began to glow once more—a mysterious force surged forth and enveloped the entire room. Mo Xiu was caught in this energy and began to tremble uncontrollably; his attacks slowed and weakened.
"What... what is this power?" Mo Xiu exclaimed in terror as he widened his eyes in an attempt to break free from its grasp. Seizing this opportunity, I unleashed my full attack; the sword energy in my hand thickened into what resembled a bolt of purple lightning aimed directly at him. Unable to evade in time, he was struck in the chest by the energy and let out a scream as his body was sent flying like a cannonball into the wall, leaving behind a massive crack.
Breathing heavily while watching Mo Xiu crumpled on the ground, I felt a wave of relief wash over me. However, I knew this was only a temporary victory. You Ying would not rest until he retrieved the pendant; he would surely send stronger minions after it. I had to quickly unravel all the secrets hidden within it to find a way to defeat him once and for all.
At that moment, I noticed something fall from Mo Xiu—a small black vial. Approaching cautiously, I picked it up and opened it to find it contained a substance emitting a pungent odor—Black Liquid. A thought crossed my mind; this liquid might be connected to You Ying's schemes. I tucked away the vial for further examination later.
After such an intense battle, my spiritual energy was nearly depleted and my body felt exhausted. Yet time was of the essence; I couldn't afford to rest for long. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, I began circulating my Immortal Secret Technique to recover my energy while contemplating my next course of action—how to expose You Ying's true nature in the Grand Compendium of Immortal Arts so he could face justice.
As my spiritual energy gradually restored itself, so did my confidence. I believed that as long as I persevered relentlessly, I would be able to overcome You Ying and protect both the Immortal Sect and The Right Path. Rising to my feet with determination in my eyes as I gazed out of the window, I silently vowed: no matter how many hardships lay ahead, I would never give up.
