Chapter 124: Guarding the Spiritual Source, Breaking the Dilemma with Wisdom
The core area of the spiritual source was flickering with soft light, like a dream.
Yan Yue looked at this source of powerful energy and felt excited.
But before she could take a step, a huge shadow fell over her, and the spirit bird reappeared, its body even bigger than before, its feathers more colorful, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes.
Its eyes were sharp, flashing with a warning light, as if declaring its absolute control over the spiritual source.
"Human, stop." The voice of the spirit bird was like a huge bell, making Yan Yue's eardrums buzz.
Yan Yue's heart trembled. She could feel the powerful pressure emanating from the spirit bird, which was far greater than their previous encounter.
The pressure was like a mountain pressing down on her head, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
How to deal with this powerful guardian?
Before she could come up with a countermeasure, the spirit bird launched an attack.
It flapped its wings, and countless wind blades poured down like a rainstorm, each containing enough energy to tear apart space.
Yan Yue did not dare to be careless and immediately used his protective magic weapon to form a golden barrier.
The wind blade hit the barrier with a deafening roar, and the barrier shook violently, as if it would break at any time.
Even though Yan Yue had prepared for defense, he was still shocked by the powerful impact and his blood surged, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
She felt that her spiritual power was rapidly draining away, as if it was being devoured by some force.
"Jin!" Yan Yue looked anxiously at Nong Jin who was fighting with the black shadow.
Nong Jin was also in a tough battle at this time.
The black shadow's strength is unfathomable and his moves are strange and unpredictable, so Nong Jin finds it difficult to suppress him for a while.
But he still used a wisp of his spiritual consciousness to pay attention to Yan Yue's situation. When he saw that she was injured, his heart suddenly tightened.
"Yuer, hold on!" Nong Jin roared, and the golden sword shone brightly, forcing the black shadow back several steps.
The black shadow sneered: "You'd better worry about yourself!" As he spoke, a black dagger suddenly appeared in his hand, emitting a heart-pounding aura.
Yan Yue was forced to retreat step by step by the attack of the spirit bird, and cracks appeared in her protective barrier. She knew that if this continued, she would definitely lose.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to her mind, and she remembered a special formation she had seen in an ancient book in her previous life, which could restrain the power of the spirit bird... Her eyes focused, and she quickly formed seals with her hands...
"You..." Lingque seemed to have noticed something, with a hint of surprise in his tone.
Yan Yue's eyes focused, and her slender fingers danced in the air, outlining mysterious runes.
Golden runes circled and danced around her like fireflies, eventually falling to the ground and forming a complex formation.
In the center of the formation, an ancient pattern slowly emerged, emitting a faint golden light.
This was the "Heavenly Star Soul-Trapping Array" that she had accidentally seen in a tattered ancient book in her previous life. It was specifically used to restrain spirit beasts with powerful spiritual powers.
The spirit bird seemed to sense the danger, let out a sharp cry, and flapped its huge wings violently, trying to escape.
However, it was too late.
The formation was activated, and golden light shot up into the sky, trapping the spirit bird inside.
Countless golden chains extended from the formation, wrapped around the spirit bird's body, and restricted its movements.
"Cry--" The spirit bird struggled angrily, and its powerful spiritual power impacted the formation, making bursts of roaring sounds.
The ground trembled and the trees shook, as if the entire space was about to collapse.
However, the formation remained motionless, trapping the spirit bird firmly inside.
A smile appeared on Yan Yue's lips. This Tianxing Soul-Trapping Formation was indeed effective.
On the other side, the battle between Nong Jin and the black shadow also entered a white-hot stage.
The black shadow's moves were insidious and vicious. The black dagger in his hand was like a poisonous snake, constantly stabbing at Nong Jin's vital points.
Nong Jin's eyes were sharp, and he swung the golden sword in his hand tightly, neutralizing the attacks of the black shadow one by one.
"A mere trifle!" Nong Jin snorted coldly, and the golden sword shone brightly. A powerful immortal power surged out, transforming into a golden dragon, roaring and rushing towards the black shadow.
The black shadow's face changed and he quickly raised a black shield to resist.
The golden dragon hit the shield, making a deafening explosion.
The shield shattered instantly, and the black shadow was knocked back several steps, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
"Damn it!" The black shadow gritted his teeth, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
He quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered something. A strange black energy surged out of his body, forming a huge skull behind him.
The skull opened its mouth wide and let out a shrill roar. A powerful suction force came from it, sucking all the surrounding trees in and turning them into powder in an instant.
Nong Jin did not dare to be careless. He took a deep breath, gripped the golden sword tightly with both hands, and prepared to meet the next wave of attack from the black shadow.
During the battle, he glanced in the direction of Yan Yue and saw that she had successfully trapped the spirit bird, and he felt a little relieved.
The black shadow sneered: "Do you think you can win like this? Too naive!" He raised the black dagger in his hand again and pointed it directly at Nong Jin, "Die!"
Nong Jin's eyes flashed, and the golden sword shone...
The golden sword hummed, and golden light flowed on the sword body, coiling like a dragon.
Nong Jin's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, tightly locking onto the black shadow's every move.
The black shadow's attacks are strange and changeable, as elusive as a ghost, but Nong Jin can always escape danger with his rich combat experience and powerful strength.
During the battle, he glanced in the direction of Yan Yue and saw that she had successfully trapped the spirit bird. A flash of relief passed through his eyes, which made him more determined to protect Yan Yue.
When the black shadow saw the spirit bird trapped, he thought to himself that something was wrong.
This spirit bird is the companion spirit beast of the Spirit Source. Once it is subdued, the protective power of the Spirit Source will be weakened, and it will then be more difficult for them to seize the Spirit Source.
He rolled his eyes and figured it out.
Instead of confronting Nong Jin head-on, it is better to take the opportunity to attack Yan Yue. As long as she is captured, she can threaten Nong Jin and even turn the tide of the battle!
The black figure flashed and turned into a black shadow, rushing towards Yan Yue.
However, his intentions had already been seen through by Nong Jin.
Nong Jin snorted coldly: "You dare to show off your skills in front of an expert!" His body was as fast as lightning, and he arrived first. The golden sword, with a sharp sword energy, cut through the air and went straight to the back of the black shadow.
"puff--"
The black shadow was unable to dodge and was hit by the sword energy, spurting out a mouthful of blood.
He staggered back a few steps, his face as pale as paper.
He covered his wound, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes.
He didn't expect Nong Jin to be so fast and react so quickly.
"Damn it!" The black shadow gritted his teeth, his eyes full of resentment.
Nong Jin approached step by step, the golden sword flashing coldly, with murderous intent: "Do you think you can succeed? Wishful thinking!"
The black shadow endured the pain, gathered his strength again, and prepared to fight back.
He knew that if he failed to successfully seize the spiritual source today, he would lose the best opportunity for promotion and might even die here.
On the other side, although Yan Yue successfully trapped the spirit bird, she knew that the Tianxing Spirit Trapping Formation could not last long.
The power of the spirit bird is too strong, and the formation may collapse at any time.
She must obtain the spiritual power of the spiritual source before the formation becomes ineffective.
She took a deep breath, quickly formed seals with her hands, muttered something, and prepared to use a secret method to forcibly draw out the power of the spiritual source.
However, at this moment, the spirit bird trapped in the formation suddenly let out a deafening cry, its huge wings flapped violently, and the golden chain made a "crackling" sound... The spirit bird looked up to the sky and howled: "Humble human, don't even think about getting your hands on the spirit source!"
The golden light of the Tianxing Soul-Trapping Array flickered, and the chains broke into pieces.
Yan Yue frowned slightly. This spirit bird was indeed powerful and more difficult to deal with than she had expected!
But who is she Yan Yue?
Having lived two lives, how could I admit defeat so easily?
She raised her hand, and dozens of talismans flew out like flowers scattered by fairies from heaven, interweaving in the air to form a huge talisman net, covering the spirit bird.
Above the talisman, lightning flashed, runes flowed, and emitted a powerful force of confinement.
"A mere trifle!" The spirit bird snorted disdainfully, flapped its wings, and a strong wind blew, instantly tearing the talisman net apart.
Its claws were as sharp as hooks, and it was heading straight for Yan Yue's face.
"You don't know your own limitations!" Yan Yue sneered, dodging the attack with a flash of his body.
Instead of getting entangled, it is better to go straight to the dragon!
Her eyes focused, she made hand gestures, and silently chanted a spell.
In an instant, her spiritual power surged, her clothes fluttered, and she looked like the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens descending to earth.
She suddenly pushed her delicate hand forward, and a dazzling white light shot directly towards the source of the spirit.
Lingque was shocked and wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
The white light penetrated the spirit bird's defense and hit the spirit source.
The spiritual source shone brightly, and a stream of pure spiritual power surged out like a tide.
Yan Yue didn't hesitate at all and jumped into the center of the formation, approaching the spiritual source.
The spiritual power of the spiritual source surged, almost swallowing her.
She stretched out her hand, feeling this powerful force, with only one thought in her mind: absorb it!
However, how can we safely absorb this powerful spiritual power?
At this moment, a voice sounded in her ear: "Yuer, be careful!"
