The situation for the practitioners of the Pure Moon Sect at Cuiying Tower is becoming increasingly dire.
The moon in the night sky, although bright, hangs serenely in this terrifying night, as if such moonlight only makes the shadows more eerie.
In the woods, there was a small wooden house emitting a strong spiritual energy both inside and out, but also shrouded in a slight tense atmosphere.
Xuan Xiaowei stood at the door of the small wooden house, staring fixedly into the darkness ahead. Bai Cang, Sitou Lian, Shen Xiaozi, and a female disciple stood by her side.
All eyes were focused on the reinforced barrier, with dense runes forming an almost untouchable barrier in the air.
"Okay, the barrier is ready. But remember, this is only a temporary solution," Xuan Xiaowei said, staring at the complex runes.
Suddenly, in the dark night, a strange atmosphere swept through the heavy air like a long knife cutting through the darkness.
"Look, what is that?" Bai Cang tightly gripped his long sword, pointing ahead.
There, a group of First-rank demon and Second-rank demon formed by four heavy demons, like messengers of death, came through the black night.
" First-rank demon and Second-rank demon, it seems that the other side is ready for a full-scale war," said Bai Cang with a furrowed brow and a bitter smile on his lips.
Sitou Lian clenched his fist and said, "This is not a good sign. We need to be prepared for a fierce battle when we return."
At that moment, Shen Xiaozi suddenly grabbed Xuan Xiaowei's arm, looking very uneasy. The little Tiger demon in his arms fell to the ground, standing up anxiously and looking at Shen Xiaozi.
Her face grew paler and paler, as if all the color had been drained from it. The light in her eyes also gradually dispersed, making her look as if she could faint at any moment.
Xuan Xiaowei noticed that something was wrong with Shen Xiaozi, and her heart sank. Anxiously, she asked, "Shen Xiaozi, what's wrong with you? Could it be that the antidote for the corpse poison didn't work?"
However, Shen Xiaozi seemed to still maintain a hint of clarity. She grabbed Xuan Xiaowei's hand, paused, and finally weakly pointed towards the back of the small wooden house.
Following her gesture, Xuan Xiaowei looked over and was surprised to see a large group of corpse demon army also converging towards the direction of the small wooden house. Alarmed, he said, "Aren't these corpse demon the Third-rank demon?!"
Third-rank demon is the only one that doesn't need to advance to the fourth rank to gather all the First-rank demon and Second-rank demon corpse demon.
"Everyone, look! There are enemies behind us too!" Xuan Xiaowei shouted as she turned around.
A group of corpse demon emitting a foul and chilling aura is gathering, their eyes gleaming with cold and hungry light, like a pack of wolves waiting for their prey to fall into a trap.
"Oh no, the corpse demon are here too!" one of the female disciples exclaimed, feeling a wave of despair.
Bai Cang and Sitou Lian both widened their eyes and their faces turned extremely unpleasant after hearing this. As a result, their situation became very bad.
In front of them was the First-rank demon and Second-rank demon formed by the four-layered demons, while behind them was the corpse demon army of Third-rank demon. With attacks from both sides, it seemed that they were truly in a desperate situation tonight.
Sitou Lian couldn't help but tightly clench his fist, "What should we do? Do we have to fight it out?"
In front are the four heavy demon troops, and in the rear, there is a large army of corpse demons led by the Third-rank demon. It seems they have been completely surrounded.
Bai Cang furrowed his brow. He shook his head and said, "It looks like tonight, we really won't make it through." Then he frowned and turned to look at Xuan Xiaowei.
Xuan Xiaowei turned the Sky Piercer Sword in her hand, her eyes shining, and said, "No, there is still a glimmer of hope." Her voice carried a hint of determination and resilience.
"What?" Everyone looked at her in surprise, their faces instantly showing a range of emotions.
"If they can restrain each other, perhaps we still have a chance."
Sitou Lian tightly held his twin swords and asked with a puzzled expression, "How can they restrain each other?"
"I have a plan, but it requires everyone's cooperation." Xuan Xiaowei took a deep breath and began to prepare for the upcoming battle.
He knew in his heart that the next battle would be a matter of life and death.
Xuan Xiaowei took a deep breath, looking serious: "I have a plan, but it requires everyone's cooperation." Then, she quickly conveyed the plan to everyone. Although they still looked worried, at least there was a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
Outside the log cabin, the four squads of corpse demons and the large army of third-rank demons were slowly approaching like two terrifying dark currents.
The corpse demons not only had a large number, but also were ruthless, even attacking other monsters without distinguishing between friend and foe. Xuan Xiaowei was thinking of using this to restrain the strongest fourth-rank demon.
"Are you ready?" Xuan Xiaowei gazed at each disciple, making sure they were all prepared for battle.
"Ready!" The crowd responded in unison, each tightly gripping their weapons.
"Okay, let's go." Xuan Xiaowei took the lead and rushed out of the cabin, instantly attracting the attention of the corpse demon army.
The battlefield outside erupted in an instant. Xuan Xiaowei wielded the Sky Piercer Sword, sending out icy sword energy that cut through the corpse demon army. Bai Cang swung his giant claws, crushing several corpse demons with each strike, accompanied by the sound of shattering bones.
Sitou Lian's twin swords drew exquisite arcs in the air, accurately striking at the vital points of the corpse demon.
At the same time, Shen Xiaozi sat on a large rock, her face growing paler, but she continued to wield her sword with effort, releasing sword energy to slay the approaching corpse demon one by one.
Several disciples of the Pure Moon Sect also fought fiercely against the corpse demon. In dangerous situations, Bai Cang, Sitou Lian, and Xuan Xiaowei would provide immediate support when needed, and the young Tiger demon would help to divert the attention of several corpse demon.
"Xuan Xiaowei, we can't hold on much longer!" Sitou Lian said anxiously as she fought off numerous corpse demon and looked towards Xuan Xiaowei.
"As long as we hold on until tomorrow noon, the gates of the Cuiying Trials will open!" Xuan Xiaowei gritted her teeth, and her sword energy became more intense.
At that moment, Shen Xiaozi suddenly coughed up blood and fainted. Xuan Xiaowei's heart tightened, and she hurriedly held her, hastily stuffing a demon pill into her mouth. It was the blue demon pill she had obtained earlier from the Cuiying pendant.
Shen Xiaozi's breath gradually stabilized.
Xuan Xiaowei looked at Shen Xiaozi in her arms, then at the corpse demon that was gradually limping towards them, some with broken legs, some with broken hands, some with their heads half chopped off, still dragging their bodies unsteadily closer to them.
Xuan Xiaowei picked up the sword, knowing that behind her were four powerful demons, with no way to retreat. The only option was to fight desperately and carve out a path to survival.
This is a life-and-death struggle, with countless corpse demons advancing in the dark night like a volcano about to erupt.
Xuan Xiaowei picked up the Lingxiao Sword, the tip of the sword trembling slightly but with an unwavering determination. Her eyes were filled with a cold light, as if to freeze the corpse demons in place.
"Retreat!" Xuan Xiaowei roared, shaking the Lingxiao sword in his hand. The sword energy, like a dragon, tore through the darkness, as if an ice river surged, sweeping away everything.
Bai Cang let out a roar, and with a swipe of his giant claw, a powerful force formed a huge vortex in the air, sucking away the life force of the corpse demon. In an instant, several corpse demons were crushed into powder and disappeared into the darkness.
Sitou Lian gritted his teeth and swung the twin swords continuously, forming a sword net. The sword net shimmered in the air, dazzling like stars, consecutively cutting down five or six corpse demons.
Shen Xiaozi woke up slightly under the care of Xuan Xiaowei, bloodstains at the corners of his mouth, but still forcibly gripping the sword hilt. The sword energy flowed like water, cutting down several corpse demons one by one, taking their lives.
"The number of corpse demons is too many, our stamina is running out!" Sitou Lian swung his sword, his brow furrowed, showing signs of fatigue.
"Then let's put an end to all of this." Xuan Xiaowei glanced into the distance, where a gigantic corpse demon stood, seemingly a general among the corpse demon army.
Xuan Xiaowei made a decision, tightly gripping the Lingxiao Sword, her figure flashing like lightning as she flew past numerous corpse demons, heading straight for the giant corpse demon.
Bai Cang and Sitou Lian's eyes narrowed, instantly understanding her intention, and also rushed over.
"Die!" Xuan Xiaowei shouted, and the Lingxiao Sword turned into a stream of light, piercing the giant corpse demon's heart.
The giant corpse demon let out a heart-wrenching scream, then turned into ashes.
At this moment, the corpse demon army seemed to be greatly shocked, and their movements paused.
"Now!" shouted Xuan Xiaowei.
Bai Cang, Sitou Lian, and other female disciples launched the final attack one after another. For a moment, sword lights rained down, and the sound of corpse demon falling was heard continuously. In the end, the corpse demon army was finally wiped out.
Xuan Xiaowei stood in place, panting heavily, her face full of exhaustion, but she knew they had won.
However, while the corpse demon army was being cleared, they could no longer hold back the fourfold demon forces in the rear. Seeing the enemy in the rear about to catch up again, Xuan Xiaowei looked at the exhausted crowd and quickly ordered everyone to escape.
After the great battle with the corpse demon army, everyone is exhausted. How far can they escape?
However, it's just a desperate struggle. Everyone knows that being captured is only a matter of time.
