Chapter 1104
The power is simply too strong!
"This guy is too strong, we have to find a way to break out!" Long Xuan shouted, a hint of anxiety flashing in his eyes.
Yang Ling nodded, and the two of them simultaneously wielded their immortal swords. A powerful surge of immortal energy rapidly gathered in the air, transforming into a massive sword light that slashed straight towards Jin Yan.
However, Jin Yan merely smiled coldly, and with a light flick of his golden sword, he dispersed the sword light. Immediately afterward, his figure approached like lightning, his golden sword aimed directly at Yang Ling's vitals.
Yang Ling was startled and hurriedly dodged, but Jin Yan's speed was too fast. He could only barely avoid the vital parts, and a deep bloody gash was still cut on his body.
"Damn it, this guy's strength is too great!" Long Xuan gritted his teeth, his heart filled with anxiety and helplessness.
Just as they were preparing to break out again, a deep rumbling sound suddenly came from the depths of the forest. Yang Ling and Long Xuan's hearts tightened; they knew that such a sound could not be made by an ordinary demonic beast.
"Not good, an even more powerful being is approaching this way!" Yang Ling shouted a warning, a hint of vigilance flashing in his eyes.
Long Xuan nodded, and the two quickly adjusted their formation, preparing to face the impending danger. But just as they were in their fighting stance, the deep rumbling sound suddenly disappeared.
"Strange, why did that sound suddenly disappear?" Long Xuan frowned, his heart filled with doubt and unease.
Yang Ling also felt something was amiss. He quickly scanned the forest, trying to find the source of the sound, but found nothing.
"It seems this forest is more mysterious and dangerous than we imagined," Yang Ling said in a deep voice, his heart filled with vigilance and unease. "We must be more careful, otherwise we may encounter unpredictable dangers here."
Long Xuan nodded, his mind still racing, searching for a solution. But just as they were about to continue, a deafening clap of thunder suddenly echoed through the sky.
Yang Ling and Long Xuan were startled and quickly looked up. They saw dark clouds covering the sky, with lightning flashing and thunder roaring, as if foreshadowing a great disaster about to befall them.
"Not good, a powerful demon is approaching!" Yang Ling shouted a warning, a hint of vigilance flashing in his eyes.
Long Xuan nodded, and the two quickly adjusted their formation, preparing to fight. But just as they got into position, a huge bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the sky, striking straight at their heads.
The two quickly dodged, but the lightning still sent a chill down their spines. They knew that if this continued, they would surely be defeated.
"We must find a way to break out!" Yang Ling shouted, his eyes gleaming with determination.
Long Xuan nodded, and the two of them simultaneously wielded their immortal swords. A powerful surge of immortal energy rapidly gathered in the air, transforming into a massive sword light that hurtled straight towards the dark clouds in the sky.
But the sword light was instantly shattered the moment it touched the dark clouds. Immediately afterward, another massive bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking directly at Yang Ling and Long Xuan.
The two dodged again, but the lightning bolt was relentless and impossible to avoid. They had no choice but to fight back with all their might, barely managing to evade the fatal blow.
"Damn it, this power is too strong, we have to find a way to break it!" Long Xuan gritted his teeth, his heart filled with anxiety and helplessness.
Yang Ling nodded, and the two quickly adjusted their formation, preparing to fight again. But just then, a deep rumbling sound came from the depths of the forest.
Yang Ling and Long Xuan felt a chill run down their spines. They knew that this kind of sound could not be made by an ordinary demon beast.
"Not good, something even more powerful is approaching!" Yang Ling shouted a warning, a hint of alertness flashing in his eyes. Long Xuan nodded as well, and the two quickly adjusted their formation, preparing to deal with the potential danger. But just as they were about to engage, the deep rumbling sound suddenly disappeared again.
"Strange, why did that sound disappear again?" Long Xuan frowned, his heart filled with doubt and unease.
Yang Ling also felt something was strange. He quickly scanned the forest, trying to find the source of the sound, but still found nothing.
Just as the two were puzzled, a figure suddenly darted out from the forest. The person was dressed in a purple robe, held a long whip, and had a strange smile on their face.
"Looks like you're in trouble," the purple-robed man said coldly, a hint of mockery in his tone. "Need my help?"
"Who are you?" Yang Ling asked warily, his eyes full of suspicion.
The man in purple robes merely smiled coldly, wielding his long whip. A beam of purple light shot straight at the dark clouds in the sky. The clouds were instantly dispersed, and the lightning and thunder vanished.
“You can call me Zixiao,” the man in purple robes said slowly, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes. “I am one of the guardians of this forest.”
"Guardians?" Yang Ling asked, frowning, his heart filled with doubt and unease.
Zi Xiao nodded, her gaze sweeping over Yang Ling and Long Xuan: "This forest holds many secrets, and you cultivators are clearly not ready to face them."
“We’re here to investigate the anomalies in this forest,” Long Xuan said in a deep voice, a resolute glint in his eyes. “We must find out the truth.”
Zi Xiao sneered and swung her long whip, sending a purple beam hurtling towards Yang Ling and Long Xuan. The two hurriedly dodged, but the beam followed them relentlessly, impossible to shake off.
"Don't you understand?" Zi Xiao said coldly, her tone laced with sarcasm. "The power in this forest is beyond your ability to contend with. Leave now, or you will face the consequences."
Yang Ling and Long Xuan exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with hesitation. They knew that facing a powerhouse like Zi Xiao, a direct confrontation was far from wise.
"Alright, let's leave." Yang Ling gritted his teeth, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.
Long Xuan nodded. They understood that the only solution at the moment was to retreat temporarily and explore the secrets of this forest again after making more thorough preparations.
"Remember, the secrets of the forest are not something you can easily uncover," Zi Xiao said coldly, her figure gradually disappearing into the depths of the forest.
Yang Ling and Long Xuan took a deep breath, composed themselves, and prepared to leave the dangerous forest. Yet, their hearts remained filled with doubt and resentment.
"We must find out the secrets of this forest," Yang Ling said firmly, his eyes shining with determination.
Long Xuan nodded. They knew that the secrets of this forest were far more complex than they appeared. And they would never give up easily.
“The power of this forest is too great; we need to find more allies,” Yang Ling said softly, a determined glint in his eyes.
Long Xuan nodded, his eyes revealing a resolute determination: "We need to return to our sect, gather more strength, and then come back to explore the secrets of this forest." (End of Chapter)
