54: Section 54
Everyone's expressions changed drastically, and they all took action, blocking while speeding up, wanting to pass through the dense forest as quickly as possible.
They were all Peak Tongxuan Realm Martial Artists.
Logically speaking, with their full strength, they could even blast open a small mountain, but at this moment, facing these trees, they were unable to cause much damage.
Instead, the trees possessed considerable power, each branch as swift as the wind.
Often, a single strike could cause a Martial Artist's body to explode.
In an instant.
More than ten people had already died or were injured.
"What the hell is this!"
"Save me!"
"I don't want to die!"
Many Martial Artists' faces were panicked, filled with terror.
As Martial Artists chosen by Ling Baishuang to enter the Secret Realm, they were naturally not ordinary people.
Not only was their strength far superior to Martial Artists of the same Realm, but their Heart-Nature was also extremely outstanding, and their combat experience was incredibly rich.
But at this moment.
Facing such bizarre trees, these people felt fear.
After all.
When facing humans, they knew the opponent's Realm and how to kill them.
But these trees seemed to be immortal; no matter what they did, they could not cause any damage, and even if branches were cut off, they could regenerate.
"Whoosh!"
A branch lashed out towards Chu Mo.
Chu Mo did not dodge, his Qing Suo Sword unsheathed with a clang, sharp Sword Qi whistled, imbued with terrifying Sword Intent, directly cutting off the branch.
The branch tried to regenerate, but the Sword Intent attached to the cut of the branch was like a persistent maggot, hindering the branch's growth.
"These branches cannot block Sword Intent!"
Chu Mo's eyes narrowed.
Then, no longer holding back his strength, his entire body's Sword Intent completely erupted, his Qing Suo Sword continuously striking out, astonishing Sword light constantly tearing through the sky, weaving into a dense net, instantly cutting off all the surrounding branches.
Following that.
He flashed, rapidly rushing forward.
Wherever he passed behind him, countless seemingly indestructible branches turned into dust, and even the trunks of some large trees, once struck by Sword Qi, collapsed with a roar, the Sword Intent eroding them, preventing their regeneration.
Under Chu Mo's terrifying Sword Intent.
A large blank area was quickly cleared out.
At the same time.
Ling Baishuang also unleashed her unique skill; the power of Yin surged throughout her body, and radiant light illuminated this world, within the covered area, countless frost fell, freezing the branches.
Then, as she clasped her hands together.
The frost exploded, and the frozen branches instantly burst apart as well.
The two did not communicate, yet they cooperated seamlessly at this instant, and in just a few breaths, they had already cleared a safe path.
"Whoosh..."
When they emerged from the dense forest, all the Martial Artists couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, revealing expressions of relief at surviving a calamity.
Only Chu Mo and Ling Baishuang cast their gaze into the distance.
Under their gaze.
They saw a large expanse of ruins on the distant mountainside,
Pavilions and towers were scattered everywhere, built along the continuous mountain ranges, the scale was very grand; if it were in its prime, it would have been extremely magnificent.
But at this moment.
These buildings had already collapsed and fallen into disrepair, becoming a pile of broken walls and rubble.
"This is the site of the Xuanyuan Sect!"
Ling Baishuang's eyes shimmered with light: "I can feel that the Phoenix Ancient Zither is very close to me, it is calling me!"
As she spoke.
She cast her gaze to the back of the ruins: "It should be in the back mountain!"
"Then let's go!"
Chu Mo said.
He also felt faint Pure Yang Qi coming from afar, and anticipation couldn't help but rise in his Heart-Nature.
According to the Opportunity seen on Zhang Fan.
When Ling Baishuang obtained the Phoenix Ancient Zither, there was extremely pure Innate Pure Yang Qi nearby, which could cause the congenital pure yang bone to transform, ultimately forging a supreme Physique!
Regarding this.
Chu Mo was extremely expectant.
Chapter 49: Fiery Evil Spirit Crystal, End of the Underground Cave
"You all wait here first, True Disciple Chu and I will go explore."
Ling Baishuang commanded.
The front was the location of the Phoenix Ancient Zither, which was truly too precious as a Saint Soldier.
Although the Martial Artists brought this time were the most trusted confidantes of the Imperial Dynasty, vigilance was still required.
After all, the human Heart-Nature is the least testable.
These Martial Artists did not know Ling Baishuang's thoughts, and upon hearing this, one Martial Artist showed a troubled expression and said, "Your Highness, our duty is to protect your safety, if..."
"Don't worry, True Disciple Chu will protect me!"
Ling Baishuang waved her hand: "You have all seen his strength, he is stronger than any of you, with his protection, safety is ensured!"
"This..."
"Then we will wait here for Your Highness and True Disciple Chu!"
This Martial Artist also knew this was the truth, so he no longer insisted.
"Let's go!"
Ling Baishuang looked at Chu Mo and said.
The two followed the guidance of the xuanyuan jade talisman together and flew towards the back mountain.
Soon.
They arrived at an underground cave.
Upon arrival.
They saw wisps of hot Qi escaping, and even brilliant light rising, indicating something extraordinary.
Seeing this scene.
Without even the guidance of the xuanyuan jade talisman, the two could confirm that this was the true entrance.
Without any hesitation, Chu Mo and Ling Baishuang entered the underground cave one after another.
The cave was very deep, going straight down, reaching deep into the earth'spulse.
The further down they went.
The hotter the Qi became, and the more intense the brilliant light grew.
After the two had walked for a while, a faint whistling sound suddenly rang out.
Ling Baishuang immediately tensed her body, subconsciously about to strike.
But at this moment.
A flash of Sword light, carrying sharp killing Sword Intent, streaked across the Void Realm.
Immediately, a wail was heard, and a figure, brilliant all over, like a Soul, was annihilated in mid-air.
Following that.
A crimson bead fell to the ground.
"This is... Fiery Evil Spirit Crystal!"
Ling Baishuang picked up the crimson bead that had fallen to the ground, a look of surprise appearing on her face.
Chu Mo was also surprised.
