Chapter 1015
Communicating with Black Phoenix!
"That's... Black Phoenix?" Bai Wei asked in surprise. "How did it appear here?"
Yang Ling looked up at the black phoenix in the sky with a solemn expression: "It seems that the old man in black robes has not given up his plan. This black phoenix is probably his new weapon."
At this moment, the black phoenix let out a long cry that resounded through the sky, flapped its wings and swooped down, heading straight for the crowd! The crowd panicked and scattered in all directions!
"Get out of the way!" Yang Ling shouted, grabbing Bai Wei and quickly moving aside!
Black Phoenix's attack struck the plaza, creating a powerful shockwave! Fortunately, Yang Ling and Bai Wei dodged in time and were unaffected! However, they saw a huge crater where the attack had struck the plaza! The people around were all terrified!
"This black phoenix is probably no less powerful than the old man in black robes!" Yang Ling said in a deep voice. "We must come up with a plan to deal with it as soon as possible!"
Bai Wei nodded: "Let's try to communicate with it first! After all, it is also a spirit beast, so it should be able to understand us."
After saying this, Bai Wei tried to use her spiritual power, but the black phoenix seemed not to hear her and continued its attack! Its eyes were bloodshot, filled with rage and killing intent!
"It seems communication won't work," Yang Ling sighed. "We have no choice but to subdue it by force."
After speaking, Yang Ling pulled out a golden longsword from his robes! This longsword was one of the magical treasures he had brought from his sect, named the "Golden Light Sword"! It could unleash golden sword energy, inflicting heavy damage on enemies!
Yang Ling charged towards Hei Feng, wielding his golden sword! At the same time, Bai Wei unleashed her magical weapon—a long silver whip! This whip, named the "Silver Serpent Whip," could flexibly attack and bind enemies!
The two attacked Black Phoenix from both sides! However, Black Phoenix's strength was simply too overwhelming! With a light flap of its wings, it blocked all of their attacks! And then it spewed out a stream of black flames towards the two of them!
Yang Ling and Bai Wei hurriedly dodged and barely escaped, but they also realized that the two of them alone would probably not be able to deal with this black phoenix.
"What should we do? We're no match for it right now," Bai Wei said anxiously.
Yang Ling frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "It seems we can only try to trap it first, and then think of a countermeasure."
After speaking, Yang Ling took out several talismans from his robes, quickly chanted incantations, and threw them at Black Phoenix. These talismans suddenly formed a massive magic array in the air, trapping Black Phoenix within it.
Trapped in the formation, the black phoenix suddenly went berserk, struggling incessantly to break free of the formation's restraints! However, this formation was a secret "Beast-Trapping Formation" passed down by Yang Ling's sect, specifically designed to imprison powerful spirit beasts, so the black phoenix could not break free for a while.
"What should we do now?" Bai Wei asked, looking at the black phoenix trapped in the formation.
Yang Ling took a deep breath and said, "We need to find a way to control this black phoenix, or find the old man in black robes, before we can truly solve the problem."
Bai Wei nodded: "Then let's split up! You go and search for the old man in black robes, and I'll stay here to guard Black Phoenix in case it breaks free and hurts anyone."
"Okay! Be careful yourself," Yang Ling instructed.
After saying this, the two went their separate ways. Yang Ling searched the city for the old man in black robes, while Bai Wei stood guard in the square, confronting Hei Feng. Time passed slowly, and darkness fell, but the old man in black robes still hadn't appeared.
At this moment, the black phoenix trapped in the formation suddenly let out a deafening cry, and then intense black flames erupted from its body, which began to burn the formation!
"This is bad! It's breaking free!" Bai Wei cried out in alarm, quickly strengthening the binding force of the magic array, but to no avail. The black phoenix was too powerful, and soon burned a large hole in the magic array, breaking free.
After breaking free of its restraints, the black phoenix immediately soared into the sky, letting out a series of deafening cries. The entire city trembled at the sound. Bai Wei looked up and saw the black phoenix emanating a dense, malevolent aura, as if it wanted to devour the entire city. She took a deep breath and unleashed her silver snake whip, charging at the black phoenix. However, the black phoenix merely flicked its wings, deflecting her attack, and then swooped down to strike Bai Wei.
Bai Wei moved nimbly, dodging the attack while simultaneously wielding her silver snake whip to strike Hei Feng's weak points. However, Hei Feng seemed to be made of iron, and no matter how Bai Wei attacked, she could not harm it in the slightest, instead putting herself in danger.
Just then, a golden sword aura descended from the sky, slashing towards Black Phoenix. It turned out that Yang Ling had arrived in time to save Bai Wei. He wielded his golden sword and engaged Black Phoenix in fierce combat. Although their strength was inferior to Black Phoenix's, they were still able to barely withstand its attacks.
"Are you alright?" Yang Ling asked with concern while fighting with the Black Phoenix.
"I'm fine! Be careful!" Bai Wei replied.
The black phoenix suddenly flapped its wings, unleashing a violent gust of wind that swept across the plaza like a tornado. Yang Ling and Bai Wei appeared extremely small in the face of this immense force. Bai Wei's long silver hair danced wildly in the wind, and the silver snake whip in her hand transformed into streaks of silver light. Her eyes shone with unwavering determination and resolve.
"Looks like I'll have to go all out!" Yang Ling shouted. He moved nimbly under the Black Phoenix's attacks, each step feeling like he was walking on the edge of the wind.
Bai Wei followed closely behind, her silver snake whip tracing intricate patterns in the air. Her movements were light and agile, like a butterfly flitting through a storm. "Yang Ling, let's try a joint attack!"
Yang Ling's eyes lit up, and he nodded in agreement. The golden sword in his hand suddenly burst into dazzling golden light, and layers of ancient runes appeared on the blade, each containing immense energy.
Their eyes met, and in an instant, their hearts were in sync. Yang Ling charged towards the Black Phoenix first, his golden sword transforming into a golden dragon-shaped sword aura that soared into the sky; Bai Wei followed in a flash, her silver snake whip scattering into thousands of silver light spots, like a galaxy swirling around the sword aura.
The black phoenix let out an angry shriek in mid-air, its eyes blazing with a terrifying light like burning coals. With a sweep of its wings, countless black fireballs hurtled towards the two, each flame carrying an aura of destruction.
At the critical moment, a figure descended from the sky; it was none other than the old cultivator Baiyun, a recluse from the city. His hair was as white as snow, he wore a green robe, and held an ancient wooden staff, the head of which was inlaid with a gem as dazzling as a star.
"Black Phoenix, cease your arrogance!" Elder Baiyun shouted, his body radiating a clear, cool light that seemed to cleanse all evil spirits.
Black Phoenix's offensive was met with its nemesis in front of Qing Guang, and it crumbled one after another. Seeing this, Yang Ling and Bai Wei were invigorated and attacked even more fiercely.
The old man with white clouds lightly raised his wooden staff, and streaks of blue light descended, transforming into nimble flying cranes. The flock of cranes circled and intertwined, forming a huge formation that trapped the black phoenix within.
Black Phoenix struggled desperately within the formation, each struggle triggering a backlash from the formation, with countless flying cranes transforming into azure light and piercing its weak points.
Taking advantage of the situation, Yang Ling and Bai Wei intensified their attack. With the help of the formation, the golden sword and silver snake whip intertwined in the air to form a magnificent net of light, firmly enveloping the black phoenix.
At this moment, other cultivators in the city arrived one after another, each unleashing their magical treasures to jointly defend against the enemy. Light burst forth from the sky, and the power of their magical treasures coalesced into a vast wave, continuously impacting the Black Phoenix's defenses. (End of Chapter)
