The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack

Chapter 413

Yun Yao rushed over anxiously, and held Chu Mochen steadily when he was about to fall. The moonlight sprinkled on the two of them, reflecting Chu Mochen's pale face. There was blood at the corners of his mouth. His eyes, which were usually deep and bright, were dimmed at this moment, and his breath was disordered and weak. Yun Yao's eyes turned red instantly, and tears rolled in her eyes. She said in a trembling voice with tears: "Chu Mochen, how are you? It's all my fault. I didn't protect you well..." Her words were full of self-blame and heartache.

Chu Mochen forced himself to stay awake, raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears that were about to fall from Yun Yao's eyes. His fingers were cold, and when they touched Yun Yao's cheek, her heart trembled violently. Chu Mochen looked at her, and although his eyes were filled with pain, they were burning with a fire that was more determined than ever before. He spoke with an unsteady breath: "Yun Yao, I'm fine, I just suffered some flesh wounds, don't panic. We have gone through so many hardships and dangers, how can we give up now? The safety of the sect depends on us, we must destroy the core!" His voice was not loud, but every word was powerful, like an electric current, drilling straight into Yun Yao's heart and dispelling some of the panic in her heart.

At this critical moment, the four looked into each other's eyes, and the surrounding noise and the howling of the demons seemed to disappear in an instant, as if the whole world was left with only the two of them. Yun Yao felt a warm current surge from the bottom of her heart, which was a mixture of her concern for Chu Mochen, her responsibility to the sect, and her belief in never giving up. Chu Mochen was also overwhelmed with emotion. Looking at Yun Yao's tearful but resolute face, the emotions that had been suppressed in his heart surged out like a flood.

A wonderful thing happened. The spiritual power between the two people seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force and began to flow and blend autonomously. Yun Yao could clearly feel that the spiritual power in her body was no longer under her control alone, but echoed with Chu Mochen's spiritual power, forming a closely connected cycle. Every flow of spiritual power was like the resonance of the two people's heartbeats, conveying each other's thoughts and strength.

Chu Mochen was also surprised to notice this change. He had fought side by side with Yun Yao countless times since they met and got to know each other, but he had never had such a wonderful experience. At this moment, he could sense the fear and worry deep in Yun Yao's heart, as well as the rock-hard belief. These emotions merged with his own emotions, turning into a majestic and pure force that stirred in the hearts of the two.

Yun Yao took a deep breath, trying to calm her agitated mood. She held Chu Mochen's hand tightly, as if she was holding the most precious treasure in the world. The two palms were facing each other, and the spiritual light became more and more dazzling, illuminating each other's faces. Yun Yao's eyes gradually became firm and resolute. She raised her head slightly, looked at Chu Mochen, and said softly but firmly: "You are right, we can't give up, never!"

Chu Mochen held her hand back, with such force that it seemed as if they were merging into one. He nodded heavily: "Together!"

In an instant, the two of them were in tune with each other and cooperated perfectly. Yun Yao's hands flew, and the speed of forming seals was several times faster than before. Rays of light containing the combined spiritual power of the two shot out from her fingertips, accurately integrating into the attacks of the crowd. Wherever these rays of light reached, the power of everyone's spells increased instantly. The fire storm burned more fiercely, the ice storm became more fierce, and the power of thunder became more violent, like a stream of angry dragons, roaring towards the core of the Phantom Demon.

Chu Mochen endured the pain and gripped the sword again. The spiritual power on the sword was shining brightly. It was no longer his spiritual power alone, but a brilliant light mixed with Yun Yao's spiritual power. The light was like a galaxy pouring down, carrying endless sword energy. His figure flashed, like a meteor streaking through the night sky, and he rushed forward towards the core of the demon shadow again. At this moment, his speed was faster than before, and his momentum was more fierce. Every time he swung his sword, it seemed to be able to create the world and ruthlessly smash the demon shadow in front of him.

With the blessing of the two people's combined spiritual power, the space around them seemed to be distorted, and the spiritual power fluctuations formed visible ripples that spread in all directions. The disciples and elders of other sects noticed this powerful force and looked sideways, their eyes full of shock and admiration. Although they didn't know what happened between Yun Yao and Chu Mochen, this sudden burst of powerful power undoubtedly injected a shot of adrenaline into everyone, which boosted the morale that was originally a little tired.

The demons seemed to have sensed the horror of this power, and the demons around the core surged frantically, trying to strengthen their defenses. They let out sharp and piercing whistles, and black energy waves rushed towards Yun Yao and Chu Mochen one after another like surging waves. However, all of this seemed a bit like a mantis trying to stop a chariot under the powerful offensive of the two people's telepathic connection and the fusion of spiritual power.

Yun Yao continued to output spiritual power to assist everyone, while keeping an eye on Chu Mochen's movements. Her heart was closely connected to Chu Mochen, and she could sense the strength of his sword swings and the consumption of his spiritual power every time. When she saw Chu Mochen's body becoming unstable again, Yun Yao did not hesitate to increase the spiritual power transmission to provide him with continuous support.

Chu Mochen felt the warmth and strength coming from behind, and his heart was filled with emotion. He knew that Yun Yao was supporting him with all her strength. This trust and support made him forget the pain in his body, and his eyes were only on the Demon Shadow Core that was so close. He shouted loudly and used a unique skill he had never used before - "Star Devil Sword". The long sword in his hand instantly turned into countless lights and shadows, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, and with the momentum of destroying the world, he stabbed fiercely at the weakest part of the Demon Shadow Core.

This sword used up all the spiritual power he and Yun Yao had after merging, and condensed the determination of the two to protect the sect and defeat the powerful enemy. The powerful demon shadows around the demon shadow core tried to block it, but under this fierce sword move, they were chopped into pieces and turned into black mist and dissipated. The sword shadow penetrated the layers of defense like lightning and pierced straight into the core.

Seeing this, Yun Yao's eyes flashed with surprise, and she immediately increased her spiritual power output to help Chu Mochen's fatal blow. With the concerted efforts of the two, the core of the magic shadow trembled violently, and the runes on the surface began to peel off in large pieces, and the evil aura leaked out like a flood.

But how could the Demon Shadow Core be destroyed so easily? Just as the sword move was about to touch the core's vital point, a powerful recoil force suddenly surged out from the core, like an invisible wall, bouncing Chu Mochen's sword back. Chu Mochen's body shook violently, and a mouthful of blood spurted out again, and the whole person flew backwards like a kite with a broken string.

Yun Yao screamed and flew forward desperately, trying to catch Chu Mochen. However, the recoil force was too strong and the range was too wide. Yun Yao was unable to dodge and was hit by the aftermath. She felt a sharp pain in her chest, a mouthful of blood rushed up her throat, her eyes went black, and she almost lost consciousness. But she relied on her tenacious will to hold on and did not fall down. After stabilizing her body in mid-air, she flew towards Chu Mochen with all her strength.

Finally, she caught Chu Mochen, and the two of them fell down in each other's arms. When landing, Yun Yao used all her strength to let her back touch the ground first to cushion the impact and protect Chu Mochen from secondary injuries. The two of them fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Yun Yao ignored her own pain and hurried to check on Chu Mochen. Chu Mochen closed his eyes tightly, his face was as pale as paper, and his breath was so weak that it seemed that he would die at any time. Yun Yao was extremely anxious. She trembled and placed her hand on Chu Mochen's chest, trying to input spiritual power to heal him, but her own spiritual power was too depleted, and the spiritual power she could mobilize at this moment was very little.

"Chu Mochen, wake up, you can't be in any trouble!" Yun Yao cried out in a crying voice, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably and dripping onto Chu Mochen's face.

The battle was still going on fiercely around them. The demons took advantage of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's injuries to launch a more fierce counterattack. Although the elders and other disciples fought hard, the situation became critical again.

However, Yun Yao's heart and eyes were filled with Chu Mochen at this moment, and her world seemed to collapse at this moment. She hugged Chu Mochen tightly and kept murmuring: "You promised me that you would protect the sect together and walk this long road of cultivation together. You can't break your promise..."

Just when Yun Yao was in despair, she suddenly felt Chu Mochen in her arms move. Then, Chu Mochen slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were still weak, but revealed a firmness: "Yun Yao, I'm still here... We haven't lost yet..."

Yun Yao was surprised and happy, and nodded with tears in her eyes: "Yes, we haven't lost yet!"

The two struggled to get up, but the pain in their bodies made them feel like they were pierced by thousands of needles every time they moved. But they supported each other and stood up shakily with their tenacious will. At this time, they looked at the Demon Shadow Core, with no retreat in their eyes, only endless fighting spirit.

When the fellow disciples around saw the two men standing up again, they were encouraged and their morale was boosted. An elder shouted, "Yun Yao, Chu Mochen, we will fight alongside you! We must completely eradicate this evil shadow today!"

Everyone responded in unison, the sound was like thunder, resounding throughout the sect. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other, and once again held each other's hands, drawing strength and courage from each other. They knew that this battle had reached the most critical and difficult moment, but as long as they worked together, there was still hope...

Yun Yao took a deep breath, circulated the little spiritual power left in her body, and began to guide the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth. Chu Mochen also endured the pain and performed it together with Yun Yao. With the tacit cooperation of the two, the spiritual energy around them seemed to be inspired and slowly gathered together, forming a spiritual vortex that enveloped them.

As the spiritual energy continued to gather, the injuries of the two miraculously began to slowly improve, and their spiritual power gradually recovered. This scene amazed everyone, and they knew that the bond between Yun Yao and Chu Mochen had surpassed the ordinary feelings between fellow disciples and lovers. It was a power that could compete with the world and create miracles.

After their spiritual power recovered a little, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at the Demon Shadow Core again. At this moment, the Demon Shadow Core had been severely damaged before, and its defense had been broken. The two smiled at each other, their eyes full of determination, and rushed towards the core again. This time, they rushed towards the final victory with the belief that they must win and the hope of the entire sect...

On the way to charge, Yun Yao suddenly had an idea. She thought of a formation that she had seen in ancient books before, which could restrain evil forces - the "Qian Kun Purification Formation". This formation required two people to have a telepathic connection and a high degree of spiritual integration to perform, and it was extremely powerful and could purify all evil.

Yun Yao hurriedly told Chu Mochen her idea. Chu Mochen's eyes lit up and he nodded, "Just as you say!"

The two of them quickly stopped and stood in the center of the battlefield. Yun Yao quickly formed seals with her hands, muttering something, and complex runes emerged from her fingertips and swirled in the air. Chu Mochen held a long sword, pointed it at the sky, and injected his spiritual power into the runes without reservation.

As the two continued to inject their spiritual power, the runes glowed brightly, gradually forming a huge circular formation. Above the formation, the light flickered and the runes flowed, as if containing the ultimate truth of heaven and earth. In the formation, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's figures seemed to be integrated with the formation. Their spiritual power intertwined with each other, turning into a stream of purifying light, shooting towards the core of the demon shadow.

The Demonic Shadow Core felt the threat of this purifying force and struggled frantically, trying to break through the constraints of the formation. It released black energy columns and attacked Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. However, the purifying light was like an indestructible shield, blocking all attacks.

Under the continuous irradiation of the purifying light, the evil aura of the Demon Shadow's core became weaker and weaker, the runes on the surface gradually dissipated, and cracks began to appear in the black sphere. Seeing this, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen increased their spiritual power output, their foreheads were covered with sweat, their faces were pale, but their eyes were extremely firm.

"Break!" Yun Yao and Chu Mochen shouted at the same time. With this roar, the purifying light suddenly shrank, and then like an exploding star, it instantly enveloped the Demon Shadow Core. With a crackling sound, the Demon Shadow Core completely collapsed under the illumination of the purifying light, turning into countless black fragments that dissipated in the air.

The surrounding demon shadows lost the support of the core and instantly turned into black smoke and disappeared like rootless duckweed. The crisis in front of the sect's treasury was finally resolved with the joint efforts of Yun Yao, Chu Mochen and everyone else.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen collapsed to the ground exhausted, but their faces were filled with gratified smiles. The head and other elders came one after another and highly praised their heroic performance. The entire sect was immersed in the joy of surviving the catastrophe, and the relationship between Yun Yao and Chu Mochen became deeper and indestructible in this life-and-death test. The disciples surrounded them, cheering and jumping for joy, their eyes full of admiration and gratitude for them. At this moment, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen became the heroes of the sect. They protected the sect with their lives and wrote their own legendary chapters...
