Chapter 128: The Peak of Glory, the Battle with the Devil
Ren Xiaoyao slowly raised his right hand, pointing toward the sky. A dazzling beam of light shot forth from his fingertips, piercing the heavens. Instantly, the magic circle shone brightly, and ancient runes swirled and danced as if activated, releasing powerful energy waves. Simultaneously, a massive black shadow descended from the sky, carrying a devastating pressure, and slammed into the magic circle.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the ground shook, the wind howled, and the entire ruins seemed to be collapsing. Ren Xiaoyao and Xia Lin were thrown back several steps by the powerful impact, their faces pale.
"Hahaha, do you think you can stop me like this? Stupid!" The devil's voice sounded like it came from the Nine Nether Hell, filled with endless anger and resentment.
His huge body slowly emerged from the smoke, his whole body burning with flames, his face was hideous, and his pair of blood-red eyes stared at Ren Xiaoyao and Xia Lin, as if he wanted to eat them alive.
"Don't even think about succeeding!" The ethereal fairy shouted, and waved the whisk in her hand. Countless silver lights shot out, turning into a rain of swords in the sky, attacking the demon god.
Venerable Jiuyang was not willing to be outdone. He formed seals with his hands and muttered something. Golden beams of light fell from the sky and hit the demon god.
However, facing the attacks of the two powerful men, the demon god was disdainful. He just waved his hand lightly and dissolved all the attacks into nothingness.
"You are overestimating yourself!" The devil snorted coldly, took a step forward, and came in front of Ren Xiaoyao and Xia Lin. His huge fist, with destructive power, smashed towards them.
"careful!"
At the critical moment, Ren Xiaoyao pulled Xia Lin behind him and raised his sword to block.
"clang!"
With a deafening roar, Ren Xiaoyao felt an overwhelming force coming at him, which made his blood boil and his palms numb. He was knocked out and fell heavily to the ground.
"Xiaoyao!" Xia Lin exclaimed, and hurried to Ren Xiaoyao's side, helped him up, and asked anxiously, "Are you okay?"
Ren Xiaoyao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head, indicating that he was fine. He looked up at the demon in front of him, his eyes filled with solemnity.
The power of the demon god was beyond his imagination. Even if they joined forces, they would find it difficult to resist. Was he really going to die here today?
No, he can't give up!
Ren Xiaoyao took a deep breath, a look of determination flashing in his eyes. He gripped the sword tightly, feeling the cold touch coming from the blade, and a strange feeling came over him.
This feeling seems familiar...
"What's wrong?" Xia Lin noticed that something was wrong with Ren Xiaoyao and asked in confusion.
Ren Xiaoyao did not answer. He just slowly closed his eyes and carefully felt this strange feeling.
"Could it be..." Ren Xiaoyao suddenly opened his eyes, staring at the demon god with a burning gaze, a strange smile on his lips, "You forced me to do this!"
Ren Xiaoyao's words were filled with confidence, as if he had grasped the last hope. Xia Lin looked at him puzzled, but she could read a hint of madness in his determined eyes.
"Roar!" the demon roared. He would not allow anyone to challenge his authority, nor would he allow his plans to be thwarted. He raised his hands high, and a destructive energy gathered in his hands. The sky and the earth changed color, and the sun and moon lost their light, as if the end of the world had arrived.
"Feel the despair! The dark power that destroys everything!" The demon roared and smashed the energy ball in his hand towards Ren Xiaoyao.
"Come on!" Ren Xiaoyao did not dodge or evade. He felt the power surging in his body. It was a powerful force beyond his cognition. It was a cry from the depths of his soul and a call that resonated with the world!
He raised his sword high, and a dazzling light erupted from its blade. The previously gathered power of the five elements—fire, water, wind, thunder, and earth—converged at the tip of the sword, forming a multicolored energy ball. This energy ball radiated a divine light, forming a stark contrast to the dark power unleashed by the demon god.
"In my name, I command the elements to break!" Ren Xiaoyao roared and pushed the energy ball in his hand towards the demon's attack.
The two forces collided, unleashing a deafening roar. The entire ruins trembled violently, as if ready to collapse at any moment. The shockwaves transformed into visible ripples of energy, sweeping in all directions, completely destroying everything in their path.
Fairy Kongling and Reverend Jiuyang were also repelled by this powerful force. They looked at the scene in disbelief, which was beyond their understanding of power.
"This... is this Xiaoyao's true power?" Xia Lin covered her mouth, her eyes filled with shock and worry.
At the center of the battle, the light faded, and Ren Xiaoyao knelt on one knee. The longsword in his hand had broken, but he remained standing. Across from him, a massive wound appeared on the demon god's massive body, and black blood continued to flow out, making a sizzling sound.
"Impossible! How could you hurt me!" The demon roared in disbelief, his voice filled with anger and fear.
"Do you think you are invincible?" Ren Xiaoyao slowly stood up, a sneer on his face, "Your power comes from darkness, and I control the light!"
"Damn ants!" The demon was completely enraged. He roared to the sky, and the dark aura on his body surged wildly, and the entire space began to distort.
"I will make you pay the price! I will let you watch the destruction of this world with your own eyes!" The devil's voice was like a demon from hell, creepy.
"Come on!" Ren Xiaoyao was not afraid at all. He felt the power in his body still surging. He knew that this was his last chance.
The demon god once again gathered his strength. This time, his attack was even more terrifying, as if he wanted to swallow up the entire world. At this moment, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly felt a strange power coming from under his feet. He looked down and found that the magic circle under his feet had actually lit up, and the light was getting stronger and stronger.
"What's going on?" The demon also noticed the changes in the magic circle, and a trace of uneasiness flashed in his eyes.
Ren Xiaoyao ignored the Demon God's astonishment. He concentrated on feeling this power. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to his mind, and he finally understood!
"So that's it, this is your weakness!" Ren Xiaoyao showed a confident smile on his face. He raised the broken sword high and poured all his strength into it.
"With my blood, with my soul, I will break the seal and let the light descend!"
The broken sword transformed into a stream of light and shot towards the center of the magic circle...
Seeing this, the demon's face changed drastically. He attacked the magic circle frantically, trying to stop Ren Xiaoyao, but it was too late...
"No!" The devil's desperate roar resounded throughout the world, but everything was already a foregone conclusion...
The broken sword transformed into a dazzling beam, piercing the center of the magic circle with pinpoint accuracy. In an instant, the magic circle erupted with unprecedented brilliance. A multicolored glow shot up into the sky, illuminating the entire ruins like daylight. Simultaneously, a powerful wave of energy emanated from the magic circle, impacting the demon's massive form.
"Ah!" the demon roared in agony, his massive body trembling violently. His once indestructible black scales began to peel off piece by piece, revealing a bloody mess of flesh beneath. He stared at the ever-spreading light in disbelief, feeling the strength draining from his body, his eyes filled with fear and despair.
"Impossible! This is impossible! How could my curse backfire on me?!" The demon roared madly, trying to stop the curse from backlashing, but everything was in vain.
Ren Xiaoyao looked at the struggling demon god with no mercy in his eyes, only endless cruelty. He knew that this was his last chance, and also the last chance in the world.
"Demon, your doom has come!" Ren Xiaoyao's voice was as cold as if it came from the Nine Nether Hell.
"No, I will not lose! I am the master of this world! I will destroy everything!" The demon roared madly, burning his last bit of life force in an attempt to make a final struggle. He raised the sword of darkness in his hand and slashed it fiercely in the direction of Ren Xiaoyao.
"Xiaoyao, be careful!" Xia Lin exclaimed. She felt the final madness of the devil and her heart was filled with worry.
Ren Xiaoyao didn't dodge. His eyes were determined, and the broken sword in his hand once again burst into a dazzling light. He knew that this was the final decisive battle, and it was also the moment for him and Xia Lin to join forces and unleash their strongest combined attack skills.
"Xia Lin, are you ready?" Ren Xiaoyao's voice sounded in Xia Lin's ears, his tone full of determination and trust.
"Yeah!" Xia Lin nodded heavily, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.
The two exchanged a smile. No words were needed; they already understood each other. The next moment, they simultaneously raised their weapons. Golden and silver light intertwined, forming an incomparably brilliant beam that shot up into the sky...
"Sun and moon shine together, heaven and earth are boundless! Yin and Yang unite as one, and all swords return to their origin!"
……
The beam of light, radiant as the sun and moon, slammed fiercely into the demon god with devastating force. With a resounding roar, the demon god's massive body gradually disintegrated in the light, transforming into countless black fragments that dissipated between heaven and earth.
"It's over..." The ethereal fairy looked at the scene, muttering to herself, tears glistening in her eyes.
Venerable Jiuyang sighed to the sky, his face filled with relief: "We won, and peace has finally returned to the world."
Ren Xiaoyao and Xia Lin stood side by side, the light on their bodies gradually fading, and the weapons in their hands turned into tiny starlights, dissipating into the air. They looked at the world that had returned to peace before them, their hearts filled with pride and satisfaction.
The sky, once shrouded in darkness, now cleared, and warm sunlight once again bathed the earth. From the soil, eroded by demonic energy, new shoots sprouted, a vibrant new life. In the distance, people cheered, celebrating victory and the dawn of a new era.
"We did it." Xia Lin snuggled up to Ren Xiaoyao and said softly.
"Yes, we did it." Ren Xiaoyao gently stroked Xia Lin's long hair, his eyes gentle and firm.
They experienced countless hardships and trials, and ultimately, relying on their mutual trust and love, they defeated the powerful enemy and protected the world. Although their adventure has ended, their legend will be passed down forever, inspiring future generations to fight for justice and peace.
Ren Xiaoyao turned and looked at the cheering crowd. He took a deep breath and stepped forward. He knew that a new chapter had just begun.
He stood on the ruins where the demon once wreaked havoc, looked at the hopeful face before him, and slowly raised his right hand...
