Xuan Xiaowei Sitting on a bamboo stool in the small wooden house, she held a jade pendant in her hand.
The flickering candlelight inside created a strange atmosphere, contrasting sharply with the cold forest outside.
As time passed, not only the candles, but also her heart, were burning with anxiety and anticipation. Tomorrow at noon, they could finally leave this Cuiying Trials, and everyone was looking forward to it.
"Just get through tonight, and tomorrow we can..." Before she could finish her sentence, suddenly, the whole forest erupted with a loud noise, as if it came from an underground thunder.
Xuan Xiaowei's pupils shrank instantly, standing up immediately, ready for action.
Bai Cang also drew the short knife by his side in an instant, his breath paused, his gaze intense. Every corner and every inch of space in the wooden house was filled with a sharp and tense atmosphere.
"The sound is coming from..." Bai Cang didn't have time to finish the sentence before everyone's gaze turned in the same direction - the cave where they had once stayed.
"Prepare for the worst, this wooden house may be our last fortress." Sitou Lian said through gritted teeth, gripping his long sword tightly.
On the other hand, the scene in the cave.
The atmosphere inside the cave is so tense that it's almost suffocating, as if even a slight breeze could trigger the dangerous elements within.
The cave walls are covered with glowing blue mushrooms and strange plants, emitting a faint light in the dimness, as if they were the eyes watching everything in the cave.
In a cold and dim cave, the extremely enchanting ghostly woman stood next to a lifeless disciple of the Pure Moon Sect. At this moment, the cave walls seemed to tremble, as if sensing the unfathomable aura of this ghostly woman.
Her gaze slowly moved to the lifeless body of the Pure Moon Sect disciple on the ground. A faint smirk appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Two days and one night ago, ghostly woman and the female disciple of the Pure Moon Sect began a thrilling and heart-pounding duel inside this cave.
The female disciple held a sword in both hands, the sword shining brightly. Her swordsmanship was extremely exquisite, and with each strike, it seemed to carry the power of the stars and the sea.
ghostly woman The corners of her mouth lifted slightly as she slowly raised the misty whip in her hand. Each swing seemed to weave a large net, intending to trap the female disciple.
"Hmph, the disciples of the Pure Moon Sect are indeed extraordinary." ghostly woman Disappeared in an instant, then suddenly reappeared behind the female disciple, attempting to attack.
The female disciple's eyes were sharp, and she was already on guard. She instantly turned her sword to block, but the sword trembled and hummed, clearly requiring a lot of effort.
After two days and one night of continuous fighting, both of them were exhausted. The female disciple felt her breath becoming unstable, and her obvious fatigue became more and more apparent in the sweat on her forehead.
"Finally, it's time to end this," the ghostly woman suddenly revealed an evil smile, then abruptly opened her mouth, extending a long, sharp tongue like a steel needle at an astonishing speed towards the female disciple's heart.
The female disciple, caught off guard, clutched her chest in pain and fell to the ground, her life force gradually fading away.
"The disciples of the Pure Moon Sect who can survive until now are not to be underestimated. The door to the Cuiying Trials will only open tomorrow, and I finally managed to deal with her before it opens," the ghostly woman muttered softly, licking the bloodstains at the corner of her mouth.
If she hadn't lured this female disciple to her main camp, which could provide a continuous supply of demon power, the ghostly creatures wouldn't have been able to hold out longer than this female disciple.
ghostly woman turned her gaze to the body of the female disciple, which was the final one she needed to complete the twenty thousand Women's spirit.
With a gentle flick of her finger, a faint blue light suddenly flew out from the lifeless body of the female disciple on the ground, piercing through the air and heading towards a massive abyss deep within the cave.
"Let's go, and fulfill your final mission," the ghostly woman said, with a cold smile, the bloodstains at the corners of her mouth looking particularly eerie in the light and shadow.
The ethereal blue light was the disciple's final essence, and under the control of the ghostly woman, it slowly flew towards the bottomless abyss.
As essence flew into the abyss, the entire cave seemed to tremble slightly, as if sensing some indescribable energy.
"Hmm?" The ghostly woman suddenly frowned, as if sensing something.
She tightly grasped the jade bottle in her hand, and in an instant, a cold light flashed in her eyes as she suddenly turned to look towards the cave's exit.
"After fusing into the fourth level of the demon, I can go and devour the descendant with the goddess bloodline," she said, clenching her fists and roaring. The woman revealed an evil smile, her gaze piercing through countless layers of darkness as if it could reach the small wooden house hidden deep in the jungle.
In an instant, the entire cave trembled slightly under her roar, and the luminescent mushrooms and plants on the cave walls seemed to have received a command, beginning to emit even more dazzling light.
The atmosphere in the cave reached a whole new level, as if the air was filled with impending crisis and tension.
At this moment, she seemed to have already envisioned the scene of her successful plan, eagerly anticipating the upcoming hunt for the descendant of the goddess.
In the distant Cuiying Trials, XuanYuan ZhanYue sat alone on a moss-covered boulder.
His eyelids trembled slightly, and a hint of imperceptible confusion appeared on his face. Suddenly, he opened a pair of eyes shining with cold light, staring directly in the direction of the entrance to the trial.
"This aura... how could it appear in the Cuiying Trials?" XuanYuan ZhanYue furrowed his brow, slowly clenching his fist, his eyes filled with vigilance and doubt.
"Resembling the aura of the Fourfold Fiend, this shouldn't be." XuanYuan ZhanYue muttered to himself, and suddenly, his entire body surged with battle intent. His gaze became even sharper, like a drawn sword, cutting through the surrounding air.
"Do we need to report to Lord YueYing and start the Cuiying Trials early?" He hesitated for a moment, pondering his next course of action.
"If this aura is related to the anomaly in the Testing Ground, the consequences would be unimaginable."
In the end, XuanYuan ZhanYue made a decision. He stood up, walked quickly towards the entrance of the trial, holding a string of purple demon-refining beads in his hand, which were given to him by YueYing lord, possessing the ability to unlock or seal the Cuiying Trials.
Standing at the entrance, he carefully sensed the aura. "Such a strong dark aura, it seems to be an extremely dangerous presence."
XuanYuan ZhanYue took a deep breath and slowly brought the Demon Refining Bead in front of his eyes. At that moment, he suddenly stopped and had a thought.
"Wait, the descendant with the goddess bloodline, XuanYuan Xiaowei, is also in the Cuiying Trials. If I violate the time seal now and open the trial ahead of schedule, she may suffer a backlash and be in even greater danger."
XuanYuan ZhanYue After a moment of silence, he finally made a decision. He retrieved the Demon Refining Bead and gazed resolutely towards the entrance of the trial, a one-way passage.
"This time, let me personally handle it."
A strong gust of air burst from his body, blowing the surrounding moss and small stones into the air.
His figure was like a bolt of lightning, instantly disappearing from the original spot and speeding towards the direction of the trial.
Just then, a distant sharp cry was heard, accompanied by an even stronger dark aura.
"This is..." XuanYuan ZhanYue felt a sudden shock and quickened his pace.
He knew that this trial would be more dangerous and difficult than ever before. But no matter what, he had to go, to protect the woman with special bloodlines and to expel the evil presence that should not be in the Cuiying Trials.
"XuanYuan Xiaowei, you must hold on until I arrive."
A storm is approaching, and XuanYuan ZhanYue is an indispensable part of this storm.
In the testing ground of Cuiying, Xuan Xiaowei, Bai Cang, Sitou Lian, Shen Xiaozi, and others felt a terrifying oppression approaching. Everyone could feel it, and this time, it was probably not just a normal test.
"What kind of atmosphere is this? It's like the whole air has frozen!" Sitou Lian exclaimed, her face turning somewhat pale.
"I feel it too. This is not a normal atmosphere. It's like something terrible is about to happen..." Shen Xiaozi tightly gripped the sword in his hand, his expression becoming serious.
Xuan Xiaowei picked up the sword beside her and said firmly, "It seems we can't just sit and wait for our doom. The plan needs to be put into action ahead of schedule." The interplay of her sword and the shadows cast by the candlelight reflected on her resolute face.
"No matter who or what caused this disaster, we must summon the greatest courage to face it. This battle is not only for ourselves, but also for the Pure Moon Sect, and for the coexistence of humans and demons in the world!"
When she said this, there was a kind of almost fanatical belief burning in her eyes.
After hearing this, the remaining disciples of the Pure Moon Sect bit their lips and also picked up their long swords, "We will accompany you on this journey, Xuan Xiaowei."
Bai Cang also firmly grasped the short knife in his hand and said solemnly, "If this is our destiny, it will also become our glory."
Suddenly, the whole wooden house was filled with an indescribable atmosphere, emanating from the deepest desires and expectations of their lives.
"Let's go together, for the ideals and beliefs that are worth everything to us." Xuan Xiaowei smiled, her smile seemed to light up the darkness of the Testing ground.
At that moment, they both understood that they were willing to risk everything to protect this world.
