Fairy, why bother with me? I am really a yellow-haired villain.

However, there is still one important support missing.

Yun Zhonghe took out a spiritual fruit emitting a faint light from his arms. This was the ghost face fruit that he had picked with great difficulty from the top of the ghost vine tree monster.

The surface of this fruit is covered with strange patterns, like a hideous ghost face, which is frightening.

However, extreme emotions such as fear and shock can often become catalysts for the rapid growth of mental strength.

Without any hesitation, Yun Zhonghe put the ghost face fruit into his mouth.

The moment the fruit flesh was bitten, an indescribable chill rushed to the forehead, as if countless miserable ghosts were screaming in the mind. That feeling of horror was more real and exciting than playing any horror game.

This fear did not last long. It was just a moment of trance and then receded like the tide.

After taking the Ghost Face Fruit, his sea of ​​consciousness seemed to be subjected to a strong mental shock, which washed over his spiritual world like a violent storm, trying to promote the leap of his spiritual realm.

But Yun Zhonghe's mental strength is too steady.

The forty-five spiritual beads could not be shaken at all, they were as solid as a rock, firmly supporting his spiritual realm, making the spiritual impact brought by the Ghost Face Fruit seem insignificant and almost impossible to shake it in the slightest.

Progress was extremely difficult, as if it was stuck.

Yun Zhonghe gathered all his strength and made a final push!

The progress bar suddenly moved up a level!

At this moment, the spiritual realm finally achieved a breakthrough and stepped into the threshold of the late stage of initial accumulation!

Yun Zhonghe's blue eyes seemed to burst out with brilliant light in an instant!

The mental power surged out like a fountain, stronger than ever before!

Controlling four spiritual golden swords at the same time to perform the Eight Desolations and Six Combinations sword technique is no problem!

When the four swords are opened at the same time, each sword can independently open up a field!

Although each area is smaller than the one when Yun Zhonghe fought against the demon puppet, this does not hinder its astonishing power.

When these four sword domains were united together, they actually stretched out a sword domain corridor that was half a hundred meters long, stretching across the air like a giant dragon, covering the entire width of the stairs, and protecting Su Xinghe and Su Xiaoxiao tightly behind them!

Yun Zhonghe was the only one guarding the pass, and all the sword lights within the sword domain turned into sharp lightning, sweeping across one monster after another like a storm.

Any monster that dares to step into the range of this sword domain will immediately fall into the attack network formed by the four swords, falling to the ground with howling and blood and flesh flying everywhere.

Even those more powerful Jindan stage monsters can only hold out for a short while in the sword domain, but before they step out of the sword domain, they are crushed to pieces by the sword light and their lives are harvested.

Chapter 247: Dark Shadow

"what--"

Su Xinghe was stunned.

She could never imagine that Yun Zhonghe, a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, could actually do such an amazing thing!

This is simply unbelievable!

Although she already knew that Yun Zhonghe was quite powerful, after all, he was able to suppress her and hit her many times, but the scene before her was really exaggerated to an outrageous degree.

Is this still the Foundation Establishment Stage?!

Su Xinghe couldn't help but mutter to himself, feeling that his cultivation level at the Jindan stage was really at its peak.

Earth-level swordsmanship, late stage of initial spiritual accumulation, has already realized the realm of swordsmanship...

There is also a sword technique that has never been seen before, which seems to be a combination of two sword techniques!

What kind of evil swordsman is this!

Although Su Xinghe had heard about some of Yun Zhonghe's deeds, and there were many people talking about it, saying that his achievements were all due to the support of two friends who were directly taught by the elders, but after witnessing Yun Zhonghe's amazing performance with her own eyes, she deeply felt that things were far from that simple.

Mu Jixue and Lin Zhongyu, she had the honor of meeting them once or twice. They were indeed the kind of talented girls who made one's eyes shine, possessing extraordinary talent and strength.

However, in comparison, the strength displayed by Yun Zhonghe can be described as abnormal, which makes people's scalp tingle.

On the stairs, one monster after another fell under Yun Zhonghe's sword, blood dyed the stone steps red, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

However, these monsters did not seem to be afraid of this. Instead, they seemed to be driven by some crazy force and pounced on them even more frantically, seeking death.

From time to time, they would launch long-range attacks on Yun Zhonghe.

Flame, wind blade, lightning, etc.

All kinds of terrifying spiritual power fluctuations swept in like a violent storm, making it almost impossible to breathe.

Yun Zhonghe danced with his sword, destroying those attacks one by one in the midst of the killing like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

Every flash of sword light was accompanied by a crisp sound of killing, which was the desperate wail of the monsters.

Despite this, Yun Zhonghe still showed a look of shame on his face.

The number of these monsters was simply too large, seemingly endless. Although he was extremely ferocious in killing, he could not withstand the desperate impact of the beast tide. It was like the scene of students flocking to the cafeteria when it was time for lunch.

He was almost full, but the beast tide still rushed up like locusts, without any sign of reduction.

Although supporting four spiritual golden swords and four sets of Eight Desolate and Six Harmonies sword techniques at the same time puts much less strain on the meridians, if it were not for the remaining vitality of Su Xiaoxiao in his body, he would not have been able to hold on for too long.

"Have you figured out a solution?"

While Yun Zhonghe was fighting off the monsters that were surging like a tide in front of him, he looked back anxiously at the two girls behind him.

Su Xinghe and Su Xiaoxiao were concentrating on studying the ancient runes on the altar, and seemed to have discovered something.

"This altar looks like an ancient teleportation formation, but it's quite damaged and incomplete. I wonder if it can be repaired and used again."

Su Xinghe is an elite inner sect disciple. Although he is a cultivator of magic, he has learned more and has a solid grasp of high-level formation knowledge.

There is no other way at the moment, I can only take a gamble and repair this formation.

This formation is very complicated and cannot be repaired by one person alone. It requires the cooperation of at least two people.

Su Xiaoxiao only had a basic understanding of battle formations, and she had all learned them in the outer sect academy. At most, she could be an assistant and obey Su Xinghe's orders.

The two of them stepped into the formation together, quickly forming seals with their hands, spreading the spiritual power from under their feet to the entire formation.

As their spiritual power was stimulated, the formation gradually began to work.

Faint bronze runes slowly emerged from the array, as if a dormant ancient power was being awakened.

Beads of sweat gradually appeared on Su Xinghe and Su Xiaoxiao's foreheads, and their faces were full of concentration.

As time went on, the formation became clearer and clearer, and finally condensed into substance, turning into an illusory ball of light that hovered above their heads.

hum~

A low and long vibration sound was heard, and the entire space seemed to be shaking at this moment!

Immediately afterwards, a channel flashing with light slowly opened in the ball of light!

"Success! But... I don't know where it leads..."

Su Xinghe gasped.

"That's better than waiting to die here."

Yun Zhonghe made a decision and let them go in first, and he would follow.

"Okay! Let's go!"

Su Xinghe held Su Xiaoxiao's hand tightly, and their eyes met.

No matter what difficulties they encounter, they will face them together.

As long as we are together, we have nothing to fear.

Following Su Xinghe's order, she and Su Xiaoxiao jumped into the shining ball of light without hesitation, and their figures instantly disappeared from Yun Zhonghe's sight.

After confirming that Su Xinghe and Su Xiaoxiao had been successfully transferred, Yun Zhonghe was also ready to withdraw his spiritual power and end this difficult battle.

And just at this moment...

A figure appeared out of thin air behind Yun Zhonghe!

Yun Zhonghe:!!!

He was shocked and didn't know what the other person was. He only felt that it looked like a human figure, with a strange and blurry figure, as if it was condensed directly from the void.

It exudes a strong black aura all over its body, and is as creepy as a wandering ghost.

Yun Zhonghe was shocked. He had no idea when or where this thing came from, and he didn't even notice it at all.

More importantly, for some reason, when this thing appeared, Yun Zhonghe felt frightened, as if his body was bound by some invisible force, unable to move at all, and he was so nervous that his heart was about to jump out.

This inexplicable fear made him feel very strange, and he also vaguely felt that there seemed to be some kind of inextricable connection between this thing and himself.

This feeling... comes from the depths of my soul.

"Wake up, you have been on the wrong path so far."

"You won't get any results. This is not your path."

"For them, you will only end up destroying yourself."

The voice seemed to come from the distant abyss of hell, with an icy chill that penetrated the bone marrow, making people feel cold all over, as if even their souls were frozen.

It is cold, low, hoarse, resentful and sad, like the loneliest howl in the middle of the night, as if it can evoke the despair and unwillingness deep in people's hearts.

Yun Zhonghe's heart suddenly trembled, and the hairs on his body stood up.

"who are you?"

Yun Zhonghe swallowed hard, and he managed to squeeze out these words with all his strength.

However, the only answer he received was dead silence.

Yun Zhonghe turned his head with difficulty, but at that moment, a ghost hand as black as ink and emitting a cold aura suddenly blocked his sight. The ghost hand was wrapped with wisps of black mist, like a devil's claw reaching out from the abyss, instantly dragging Yun Zhonghe's consciousness into an unknown and terrifying world!

At that moment, it seemed as if something had penetrated into Yun Zhonghe's mind.

"Ahhhh!!!"

He felt very uncomfortable, as if his brain was about to split apart. The world in front of him began to distort and deform. Some inexplicable fragments of memory were like broken lenses, piecing together in his mind piece by piece.

Yun Zhonghe saw himself lying in a pool of blood at the bottom of the dark and deep sea, with an ice sword emitting a biting cold air stuck in his chest.

Death was overwhelming, and coldness enveloped him completely. Around Yun Zhonghe, Mu Jixue was looking at him with indifferent eyes.

Not only that... there's also Lin Zhongyu... Su Xiaoxiao...

Those familiar faces looked at him from afar, and no one offered a helping hand...

Everyone just stood by and watched...

He was about to die, why didn't anyone come to save him...why...

"This is what happens to you!"

The eerie shadow issued a warning.

Chapter 248: Draining the Sisters

"Why hasn't Brother Yun come yet?"

Su Xiaoxiao and Su Xinghe passed through the formation and came to a new and unknown area. It seemed to be a cave, narrow and dark, with a damp and stuffy smell in the air.

However, there seemed to be no trace of monsters wandering around. Compared with the previous scene where the beast tide was surging and life and death were on the verge of death, this place was as peaceful and tranquil as heaven!

But the two did not relax at all because of this. They were still nervously waiting for Yun Zhonghe to appear as soon as possible.

But time passed minute by minute, and Yun Zhonghe still didn't show up.

Both of them looked up, anxiously looking at the teleportation array that was still flashing with a faint light. It seemed that this array was too old. They had only carried out emergency repairs under time constraints. There were still many unknown problems and hidden dangers, and it was only barely activated.

If we don't hurry up, this formation will most likely be closed.

A sense of anxiety and tension rose in the hearts of both of them, and beads of sweat began to appear on their foreheads.

They stood up at the same time, ready to rush back to the portal that might be about to close, to look for Yun Zhonghe.

At this moment, a vague figure finally emerged from the light ball.

"It's Brother Yun!"

"Huh? How did he fall in here?"

That’s right, Yun Zhonghe didn’t cross over normally, but fell down headfirst, looking completely unintuitive.
