The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack

Chapter 160 Crisis and Breakthrough

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen held the treasure jade pendant in their hands and looked warily at the other disciples who suddenly appeared. These disciples came from a sect called Blood Shadow Sect, and they all looked greedy, and it was obvious that they would not let go of the jade pendant easily.

"Hand over the jade pendant, or don't blame us for being rude!" said a leading disciple of the Blood Shadow Sect viciously.

Yun Yao held the jade pendant tightly and responded with a firm look in her eyes: "We worked hard to find this, why should we give it to you!"

Chu Mochen snorted coldly, emitting a powerful aura, ready to respond to the enemy's attacks at any time.

Seeing this, the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect stopped talking nonsense and used their own magic weapons to attack Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. For a moment, various magic lights flashed, illuminating the entire ruins.

Yun Yao quickly cast a defensive spell, forming a spiritual shield in front of her. At the same time, she pinched her fingers and fired a fire spell at the enemy. Chu Mochen flashed and shuttled between the enemies like a ghost, waving the long sword in his hand to release sword energy, forcing the enemies to retreat again and again.

However, the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect were no ordinary people. They worked in perfect harmony, with some responsible for attacking and others for defending, and gradually surrounded Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. Yun Yao was secretly anxious, she knew that this was not a solution, and she had to find a way to break through the predicament.

As she fought, she observed the enemy's flaws. Suddenly, she found that the Blood Shadow Sect's formation had a short gap on the left. Yun Yao's eyes lit up, and she shouted to Chu Mochen, "Brother Chu, let's break out from the left!"

Chu Mochen understood and immediately changed the direction of attack, rushing to the left. Yun Yao followed closely behind, continuously casting spells in her hand to provide cover for Chu Mochen.

The disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect noticed their intention and quickly strengthened the defense on the left. However, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's attack was too swift, and they still broke through the defense line and rushed out of the encirclement.

However, the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect were not willing to give up and they chased after them. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen quickly shuttled through the ruins, trying to get rid of the enemy's pursuit.

During the escape, Yun Yao found a narrow passage ahead. She was moved and said to Chu Mochen, "Brother Chu, let's go into that passage and see if we can get rid of them."

Chu Mochen nodded, and the two rushed into the passage together. The light in the passage was dim, and there was a mysterious atmosphere. They moved forward cautiously, always alert to possible dangers.

The disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect chased to the entrance of the passage and hesitated for a moment. They were worried that there would be traps in the passage, but they didn't want to give up the jade pendant. In the end, greed overcame fear, and they decided to chase in.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen heard the enemy's footsteps in the passage, and they became even more nervous. They sped up, hoping to find the exit as soon as possible.

Suddenly, a stone door appeared in front of them. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stopped and looked at the stone door carefully. The stone door was engraved with strange runes, which seemed to hide some secrets.

"What should we do? This stone door looks difficult to open." Yun Yao said with a frown.

Chu Mochen walked forward and studied the runes carefully. He found that these runes seemed to be an ancient formation that required a specific method to crack.

"I'll try to see if I can break this formation." Chu Mochen said, and began to try to use his spiritual power to activate the runes.

Yun Yao stood aside, alert and on guard to prevent the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect from catching up.

After some effort, Chu Mochen finally found a way to break the formation. The stone door slowly opened, and a powerful spiritual power rushed towards him.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other and walked into the stone door carefully. Inside the door was a spacious room with a stone platform in the middle of the room. On the stone platform was a glowing ancient book.

"What is this?" Yun Yao walked forward curiously.

As soon as she approached the stone platform, she felt a strong attraction that seemed to suck her into the ancient book. Yun Yao quickly took a few steps back, her heart filled with shock.

Chu Mochen also felt the extraordinaryness of the ancient book, and he walked forward to observe it carefully. "This may be a precious cultivation secret book, but it seems to be protected by a powerful force." Chu Mochen said.

While they were studying the ancient books, the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect also rushed into the room. When they saw the stone platform and the ancient books, their eyes showed even more greed.

"Haha, we've made a fortune this time! Not only do we have the jade pendant, but we also have this secret book!" the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect shouted excitedly.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's faces became more solemn. They knew that a more intense battle was about to break out.

"Yun Yao, we can't let them get these things." Chu Mochen said.

"Yes, I understand." Yun Yao nodded firmly.

The disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect launched an attack again. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen had to put down the ancient books temporarily and concentrate on dealing with the enemy.

The battle entered a white-hot stage. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen used all their strength to fight the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect. They were all injured, but they still had no intention of retreating.

In the fierce battle, Yun Yao suddenly felt the spiritual power in her body begin to surge, and a sign of a breakthrough gradually appeared. She was delighted, knowing that this was a rare opportunity.

She gritted her teeth, concentrated her energy, and guided the spiritual power in her body to attack the bottleneck. At the same time, the spells in her hands became more powerful, causing great pressure on the enemy.

Chu Mochen was also encouraged by Yun Yao's condition. His attacks became more fierce, and his sword energy was like substance, forcing the enemy to retreat step by step.

The disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect realized that Yun Yao was about to break through, and they were horrified. They began to launch a desperate attack, trying to stop Yun Yao.

However, Yun Yao had already entered the critical moment of breakthrough, and a layer of powerful spiritual light enveloped her body. Any attack approaching her would be blocked by this layer of light.

Finally, after a strong fluctuation of spiritual power, Yun Yao successfully broke through the bottleneck of cultivation and her strength was further improved. Her eyes flashed with excitement, and the power of the spells in her hands also increased greatly.

"Senior Brother Chu, let's go together!" Yun Yao shouted.

Chu Mochen nodded, and the two of them joined forces again to launch a final attack on the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect.

At this time, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's strength increased greatly, and the disciples of the Blood Shadow Sect were unable to resist them at all. They were defeated one after another under the attack of the two.

"Let's go!" Seeing that the situation was not good, the leading disciple of the Blood Shadow Sect shouted and fled the room with the remaining disciples.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen did not pursue, they knew that the most important thing now was to protect the jade pendant and ancient books.

"We finally succeeded." Yun Yao breathed a sigh of relief, a tired but relieved smile on her face.

Chu Mochen also smiled slightly: "Yes, this time it's all thanks to you. If you hadn't broken through at the critical moment, we might have been in danger."

Yun Yao shook her head: "We are in this together. I can't do it without you."

The two of them rested for a while, then walked forward and picked up the ancient book on the stone platform. They flipped through it carefully and found that it was indeed an extremely precious cultivation secret book, which recorded many advanced skills and spells.

"This secret book will be of great help to our cultivation." Chu Mochen said.

"Well, we must study it carefully after we go back." Yun Yao nodded in agreement.

Then, they left the room with the jade pendant and ancient books and walked out of the ruins along the passage.

When they walked out of the ruins, the sun shone on them, and they felt particularly warm. This experience made them gain a lot. Not only did they get treasures and secret books, but they also broke through themselves in the battle, and the relationship between them became closer.

With the joy of victory, they set out on the journey back to Xuanqing Gate.
