The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack

Chapter 523 New Enemy

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were in the Hongmeng Temple. Before they could recover from the busy work of rectifying the cultivation world and creating a new pattern, they felt the violent vibration of the spiritual power between heaven and earth. In an instant, the spiritual pressure monitoring array in the temple glowed brightly and flashed wildly, and the alarm sounded rapidly and piercingly.

Yun Yao's eyes were stern, and she waved her jade hand. The void in front of her was covered with ripples, showing the outside world. At the edge of the distant sky, a huge black crack that seemed to connect to the Nine Nether Hell suddenly opened, and rolling demonic clouds poured out like raging waves, covering a large area of the sky in the blink of an eye. The demonic cloud was flashing with lightning and thunder, and the purple lightning was like an evil python that was choosing its prey, shuttling and roaring in it. Every flash of lightning reflected the shadowy and savage figures of demon cultivators in the demonic cloud. A rough count showed that there were at least 100,000 of them.

"The demon world has broken the seal at this moment!" Chu Mochen stood up suddenly, his eyes flashing with cold light, the power of chaos surging around him, and his clothes rustling. He flashed and came to Yun Yao's side, standing side by side with her, staring at this sudden change together.

Yun Yao frowned, and the Hongmeng Heavenly Sword in her hand hummed and trembled, as if she felt the evil power of the same source. She carefully observed the demonic cloud, and after a moment, a flash of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes: "Something is wrong, this demonic energy is mixed with an extremely strange aura, which is definitely not the ordinary aura of the demon world." After that, she lightly tapped her jade finger, and a stream of Hongmeng sword energy shot out and accurately cut into the demonic cloud. Wherever the sword energy passed, the demonic energy was like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun, melting one after another, but there were strands of black filaments that seemed to be real and stubbornly resisted, slowly wriggling, emitting a heart-pounding fluctuation.

Seeing this, Chu Mochen also extended his power of chaos to wrap the black filament, trying to analyze its essence. However, as soon as he touched it, his face changed drastically and he withdrew his hand abruptly: "This is... Hongmeng turbid air! How is it possible? Wasn't it purified away when the world was first created?"

Yun Yao's heart moved, and a flash of inspiration seemed to flash through her mind. She quickly opened the system and searched for information about the Hongmeng turbid air. The system panel flickered, and lines of ancient and obscure text emerged: "Hongmeng turbid air is an evil thing that coexisted with the pure Hongmeng spiritual energy when chaos was not yet opened and Hongmeng was just beginning to evolve. It contains endless destructive and chaotic power, can corrode all living things, and distort the order of time and space. It is a great evil in ancient times. It once caused the collapse of heaven and earth. Fortunately, the Hongmeng Heavenly Dao and the Chaos Demon God worked together to seal and purify it, but there are still remnants hidden..."

After reading this, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other, and both saw shock and realization in each other's eyes. "Could it be that this is the remnant of the Chaos Demon God in the previous life?" Yun Yao murmured, with an ominous premonition in her heart. If this is true, then this invasion of the demon world may be hiding a more shocking conspiracy, and it is definitely not a simple dispute between the two worlds.

At this time, the 100,000 demon cultivators, surrounded by demon clouds, were already sweeping in like a black tide. Wherever they passed, mountains and rivers collapsed, rivers dried up, and all living things were destroyed. The leading demon generals were surrounded by demonic energy and had great demonic power. They sacrificed one evil magic weapon after another and bombarded the Hongmeng Temple from a distance. In an instant, various colors of demonic light crisscrossed, like a world-destroying calamity, and smashed into the temple's defensive light curtain.

Seeing this, Yun Yao cried out, "You want to invade my temple? You're dreaming!" She waved the Hongmeng Heavenly Sword in her hand, drawing a brilliant Hongmeng sword arc, heading towards the magic light in the sky. Wherever the sword arc went, the magic light shattered and turned into dots of black star sand that dissipated in the world. At the same time, Chu Mochen formed seals with both hands, and the power of chaos rushed out, building an indestructible chaos shield in front of the temple to block all the remaining magic light.

"We can't let them wreak havoc like this. We must take the initiative and find out who is behind this!" Yun Yao looked determined and turned to look at Chu Mochen. Chu Mochen nodded slightly, and his aura rose to its peak. His Chaos Saint Body glowed with dazzling light, like a blazing sun. "Let's go!" He shouted, and flew into the air with Yun Yao, rushing towards the army of demon cultivators.

The two rushed into the demon group like a tiger into a flock of sheep. Yun Yao's Hongmeng sword embryo bloomed with endless sword shadows, each of which contained the power of Hongmeng. Wherever it passed, the demon cultivators were reduced to ashes and screamed. She was agile, like a dancing fairy, moving freely among the demons. Her sword skills were unparalleled, sometimes picking, sometimes stabbing, and sometimes slashing, and she brought the exquisite sword moves given by the system to the fullest.

Chu Mochen was no less powerful. He waved his hands, and the power of chaos was like a materialized dragon, roaring and surging. The demon cultivators he touched were instantly drawn into the vortex of chaos, and their bodies and souls were all wiped out. Every time he took a step, the void under his feet shook and shattered, as if it could not bear his powerful strength. The two of them stood back to back, cooperating with each other, and killed their way to the depths of the demon cloud. Wherever they passed, the demon cultivator army was torn open a bloody path.

As they went deeper into the demonic cloud, the turbid air of Hongmeng became thicker and thicker, like a sticky black swamp, restricting the movements of the two. Yun Yao activated the power of Hongmeng, and a layer of crystal light of Hongmeng appeared on her body, barely resisting the erosion of the turbid air. Chu Mochen used the strength of the Chaos Saint Body to forcibly open up a piece of chaotic space to protect the two of them.

Just as the two were struggling to move forward, the demonic cloud in front of them suddenly rolled violently, and a demonic voice that seemed to come from the Nine Nether Hell rang out: "Hahaha, you didn't expect that today would be the day you die! I am the Demon Lord Wuming, entrusted by the Demon Lord to take your lives and reshape the chaotic universe!"

As the magic sound fell, a tall and majestic figure of the Demon Lord slowly emerged. He was wearing a black magic armor with runes flashing on it and flowing with strange blood light. He wore a ferocious magic crown on his head, and two long fangs protruded from the corners of his mouth, flashing cold light. In his hand, he held a black magic halberd, which seemed to be connected to the endless abyss, emitting a desperate breath of destruction.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen both looked solemn when they saw this. The pressure emanating from the lifeless demon lord was far beyond that of ordinary peak incarnation masters. It was obvious that he had borrowed the power of the turbid air of Hongmeng and the remnant of the Chaos Demon God, and his strength was unfathomable. However, there was no fear in the eyes of the two, but instead, their fighting spirit was burning.

“Hmph, how shameless! Today, I will let you, a devil, see what the righteous way of Hongmeng is!” Yun Yao gave a delicate shout and pointed the Hongmeng Heavenly Dao Sword in her hand at the Demon Lord. The sword body vibrated and the power of Hongmeng gathered madly, as if to light up the whole world.

Chu Mochen's body was also filled with chaotic power. He clenched his fists, his bones crackled, and the chaotic wings behind him slowly spread out. Each wing seemed to contain a small chaotic world. "Come on, today is the day for your regret to be destroyed!"

A fateful duel concerning the survival of the cultivation world and involving the cause and effect of past lives, thus begins under the sky full of rolling demonic clouds...

The Lifeless Demon Lord took the lead in attacking, swinging the magic halberd in his hand, and a black halberd light that seemed to split the sky and the earth burst out. Wherever the halberd light passed, the space was like a fragile paper, being torn easily, revealing dark void cracks. In the cracks, a shrill roar was faintly heard, as if countless wronged souls were struggling.

Seeing this, Yun Yao's beautiful eyes flashed with coldness, and the Hongmeng Heavenly Sword in her hand danced rapidly, instantly laying a sword net in front of her. Each sword thread contained the power of Hongmeng and was extremely tough. The moment the sword net collided with the halberd, it was like a collision of stars, bursting out with dazzling light and deafening roar. The powerful impact spread in all directions, and the mountains and rivers below were directly flattened by several feet, huge rocks flew, and smoke and dust rolled.

Chu Mochen took advantage of Yun Yao's moment to block the halberd's light, and his figure flashed and teleported behind the Demon Lord. He clenched his fists, wrapped in the power of chaos, and smashed the Demon Lord's vest fiercely. The wind from his fists whistled, as if it could break the sky. Wherever it passed, the air was compressed into substance, making a "crackling" sound.

The Demon Lord seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. The runes on the back of his magic armor flashed, and a black light curtain appeared instantly, blocking Chu Mochen's fatal blow. The light curtain collided with the fist, and ripples appeared, as if a black lake was thrown into a boulder. The Demon Lord turned around suddenly, and the magic halberd swung backhandedly, and the tip of the halberd drew an arc and stabbed towards Chu Mochen's throat.

Chu Mochen leaned back, tapped the air with his toes, and floated back several feet like a wisp of green smoke. At the same time, Yun Yao stepped on the air and flew over like a fairy. The Hongmeng Heavenly Sword in her hand burst into a thousand-foot-long light, and she used the system-rewarded skill "Hongmeng Breaking the Sky". A huge sword shadow that seemed to be able to cut through the sky roared out, carrying endless Hongmeng pressure, and fiercely chopped towards the head of the Demon Lord.

The Demon Lord felt the terrifying power of the sword and did not dare to take it head-on. He held the magic halberd in his hand horizontally above his head. The moment the magic halberd collided with the sword shadow, the void under his feet collapsed, and the whole person seemed to fall into an endless abyss. But the Demon Lord was extraordinary after all. With the help of the strange power of the turbid air of Hongmeng, he stabilized his body at the critical moment and soared into the sky from the abyss. The demonic energy around him was like a burning black flame, surging and rolling.

"Hmph, with this little ability, you dare to compete with me!" The Demon Lord snorted coldly, and the magic halberd danced wildly in the air. For a moment, there were many demon shadows, as if thousands of troops were attacking at the same time. Each demon shadow carried the power to destroy the world and enveloped Yun Yao and Chu Mochen.

Seeing this, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes. The two of them were in tune with each other and simultaneously performed their joint skills "Hongmeng Creation Sword Art". Yun Yao's Hongmeng power and Chu Mochen's chaos power blended with each other, like yin and yang complementing each other, turning into a two-color sword rainbow that destroyed the world and rushed towards the demon shadow in the sky.

Wherever the sword rainbow passed, the demonic shadows dissipated, as if ice and snow met the blazing sun. The two-color sword rainbow collided with the demonic shadow army of the Demon Lord, like a huge explosion at the beginning of chaos, and the light that erupted illuminated the entire world. The powerful energy fluctuations spread wildly in all directions, shaking the demonic army in the distance into pieces, causing countless casualties.

In this fierce battle, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen also suffered a great shock. Yun Yao's mouth was bleeding and her face was slightly pale, but she still held the Hongmeng Heavenly Sword tightly in her hand, and the light of the sword had not diminished at all. Chu Mochen's chest rose and fell violently, and several tiny cracks appeared on the Chaos Saint Body, and a trace of chaotic energy escaped from it. But the two of them had firm eyes, like two war gods, staring at the Demon Lord, ready to face the next round of more fierce attacks.

The Demon Lord was furious when he saw that his ultimate move was broken. He suddenly raised his head and roared, and the turbid air around him seemed to be summoned, gathering madly and merging into his body. The Demon Lord's figure instantly expanded several times, like a demon god standing tall, with a mighty and suffocating demon power.

"Today is the place where you will die!" The Demon Lord roared, raised the magic halberd in his hand high, and pointed the tip of the halberd at the sky. In an instant, the sky seemed to be torn apart by an invisible giant hand, and a black light column that seemed to be a world-destroying calamity came crashing down, smashing straight into Yun Yao and Chu Mochen.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen did not dare to slack off. They quickly moved closer and gathered all their strength. Yun Yao's Hongmeng power turned into a crystal shield that enveloped the two of them. Chu Mochen's chaos power built a series of defensive runes outside the shield to enhance the shield's defense.

The moment the black beam of light collided with the shield, it was as if the end of the world had come. The entire world seemed to be swallowed by endless darkness, and only the place where the shield and the beam of light collided, bursting with dazzling light. In the light, the figures of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were like candles in the wind, swaying, but the two of them always gritted their teeth and persisted, not taking a single step back.

At this critical moment of life and death, Yun Yao suddenly had an idea. She remembered the power of the law of time and space that she had comprehended in the system space before. Although she had not yet fully mastered it, she had no choice but to take a risk at this moment. She closed her eyes tightly, concentrated her mind, mobilized the power of Hongmeng in her body, and tried to activate the law of time and space.

In an instant, a layer of mysterious silver light appeared around Yun Yao, and in the light, countless stars could be seen flickering and time passing. With her efforts, the space around the shield seemed to be distorted, and the flow of time slowed down.

Chu Mochen noticed Yun Yao's actions, and he also cooperated with her with all his strength. He slowly injected the power of chaos into Yun Yao's body to help her stabilize the power of time and space. With the tacit cooperation of the two, the power of the black light column seemed to be weakened a little, and the pressure on the shield was also reduced.

"Now!" Yun Yao suddenly opened her eyes, and a silver light flashed in her eyes. She and Chu Mochen exerted their strength at the same time, turning the shield into a sharp light and rushing towards the Demon Lord. With the blessing of the power of time and space, this light seemed to have passed through the barrier of time and space and instantly arrived in front of the Demon Lord.

The Demon Lord was horrified. In a panic, he hastily waved his magic spear to resist. But it was too late. The light hit his chest fiercely, directly knocking him several feet away. The Demon Lord vomited black blood, cracks appeared on his magic armor, and his breath instantly became weak.

"This... how is it possible!" The Demon Lord's face was filled with shock, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

Yun Yao and Chu Mochen took advantage of the fact that the Demon Lord was injured and did not stop for a moment. They flashed and came to the sides of the Demon Lord like ghosts, and attacked at the same time, interweaving the power of Hongmeng and the power of chaos, fiercely bombarding the Demon Lord.

Although the Demon Lord fought hard, his strength was greatly reduced due to his injuries. How could he withstand the combined killing blow of the two? With a scream, the Demon Lord's body exploded and turned into a black blood mist that dissipated in the world. With the destruction of the Demon Lord, the demon cloud in the sky seemed to have lost its support and quickly dissipated. The 100,000 demon cultivators also scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing back to the demon world.

This thrilling battle finally ended with the victory of Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. But they knew that this was only a temporary calm, the remnant of the Chaos Demon God had not been completely eradicated, and the road ahead was still full of hardships...
