Chapter 152: Heart as Strong as Iron, Breaking Through Illusions and Moving Forward
In the inner demon space, the dense fog surged and condensed into a familiar figure.
That face, that smile, was actually Yan Yue’s best friend in her previous life - Lin Xi.
"Xiao Yue, long time no see." The gentle voice carried a hint of nostalgia and bitterness, as if it traveled through time and space and hit the softest part of Yan Yue's heart.
Those dusty memories poured out like a flood.
They had stolen spiritual fruits together and were punished to face the wall, they had stayed up late to practice and encourage each other, they had fought side by side against monsters... The laughter and joy they had in the past were now like sharp knives, piercing Yan Yue's heart.
Lin Xi's smile gradually twisted in front of her eyes, becoming weird and unfamiliar.
Those beautiful memories were painted with a gloomy color, as if mocking her innocence and her stupidity.
"Xi'er...is it really you?" Yan Yue's voice trembled, and his eyes were full of pain and confusion.
Lin Xi, the incarnation of the inner demon, sighed softly, and a crystal tear fell from the corner of his eye: "Xiao Yue, don't you remember the oath we made together? We will ascend to the immortal world together and never be separated..."
Just when Yan Yue was about to be swallowed by this sadness, a picture suddenly flashed through her mind: Lin Xi hated sweets the most, but the "Lin Xi" in front of her was holding a piece of osmanthus cake in her hand, savoring it carefully.
This subtle difference, like a flash of lightning, cuts through the fog and illuminates the truth.
"You are not Xier!" Yan Yue's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he made up his mind. He recited the incantation silently, and a dazzling white light condensed in his hand.
"Purify!" With a clear shout, white light shot towards the incarnation of the inner demon like a sharp sword.
"Ah!" The incarnation of the inner demon let out a shrill scream, and his figure instantly disintegrated and disappeared into a wisp of black smoke.
Yan Yue did not let her guard down. She knew this was just the beginning... Suddenly, she felt an even more powerful force gathering, and a cold voice rang out in the air: "You... dare..."
"You... dare to hurt me!" The black smoke condensed again, and this time it was no longer Lin Xi's appearance, but a hideous and terrifying ghost face, making a shrill scream.
"You think you can disturb my mind with just this little trick? You underestimate me!" Yan Yue sneered. "I've been through hundreds of battles and have seen all sorts of storms!" She quickly formed seals with her hands. "Heavenly Gang Demon Subduing Formation, activate!"
In an instant, golden light flashed, and a huge formation enveloped Yan Yue. Runes flowed in the formation, emitting a powerful pressure, trapping the inner demon tightly.
"A mere trifle? Humph, this has just begun!" The inner demon roared and attacked the formation frantically. The space shook violently, as if it would collapse at any time.
Yan Yue's face was solemn, but he was not afraid at all. He continued to inject spiritual power to maintain the formation, while secretly accumulating strength, preparing to give the inner demon a fatal blow.
Outside, Nong Jin stared intently at the inner demon space shrouded in black fog with his eyes as sharp as torches.
He felt Yan Yue's stubborn resistance, and a relieved smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"As expected of my Yueyue, you're so cool!" A strong power burst out from him, and the golden light was like a barrier, covering the entire protective circle more tightly and making it unbreakable.
This power seemed to transcend time and space and was transmitted to Yan Yue who was fighting in the inner demon space, making her feel a sense of warmth and determination.
He knew that as long as he was there, she would not fall.
Bai Ling paced back and forth beside Nong Jin, occasionally letting out a low hum of worry.
Elder Ming and the young monk prayed silently, hoping that Yan Yue could defeat his inner demons.
Suddenly, Heifengsha let out a sinister laugh: "It seems that a strong attack will not work..." A cunning light flashed in his eyes, and he slowly raised the black staff in his hand, muttering something.
Nong Jin's heart trembled, and an ominous premonition came to his mind... "Not good!"
Heifengsha smiled sinisterly and no longer insisted on attacking. Instead, he slammed his staff to the ground, and a black gas spread out like ink.
"Since the hard way doesn't work, let's try the soft way! Guys, suck it!" He gave an order, and the black fog rolled as if it came alive, turning into countless greedy mouths, frantically devouring the golden light emitted by the protective circle.
Nong Jin's face darkened. This Hei Fengsha was really a "stupid guy". He actually wanted to use such a "sinister" trick!
The golden light of the protective circle dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Nong Jin felt the pressure on his body suddenly increase, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back, making it difficult for him to breathe.
But he still gritted his teeth, forming seals with his hands, mobilizing all his spiritual energy to reinforce the protective circle, and cursed in his heart: "You want to drain my strength? I'm a 'power bank' spirit, I'll drain you to death!"
At the same time, in the inner demon space, the battle between Yan Yue and the incarnation of the inner demon also entered a white-hot stage.
The incarnation of the inner demon kept changing its form, sometimes turning into a hideous evil ghost, sometimes turning into her enemy in the previous life, trying to disturb her mind.
But Yan Yue's heart was as solid as a rock at this moment, and he was not moved at all.
"That's it? That's it? You still want to PUA (mind control) me? I'm a 'clear-headed person'!" She curled her lips into a sneer, her eyes as sharp as a knife.
Just as the inner demon incarnation changed its form again, Yan Yue keenly caught a flaw.
She seized the opportunity without hesitation and released all the spiritual power that had been accumulated in her body for a long time, turning it into a dazzling light and directly hitting the incarnation of the inner demon.
"Take my 'Universe Super Invincible Thunder Palm'!" "Boom!" With a loud bang, the incarnation of the inner demon was hit, and its body trembled violently, becoming as illusory as mist. It looked at Yan Yue in horror, its eyes full of disbelief.
"No...this is impossible..."
At this moment, an even more powerful force surged out from Black Wind Evil's staff... Black Wind Evil suddenly stopped swallowing the golden light, looked up at the sky, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.
"The time has come..." He muttered to himself, raised his staff high, and recited an obscure spell... Black Wind Evil suddenly stopped swallowing the golden light. He looked up to the sky and let out a long roar. The staff in his hand burst out with a strange red light and shot straight into the sky.
"Heaven is unfair! I will sacrifice my body to heaven in exchange for forbidden power!" He roared, his voice like a demon from hell, creepy.
The red light circled in the air for a moment, then suddenly fell down, turning into a blood-red beam of light that enveloped Nong Jin.
"Fuck! What kind of a trick is this?" Nong Jin couldn't help but swear. He felt a powerful force restraining him. The immortal power in his body seemed to be solidified and was moving extremely slowly.
"Sixth brother! You are playing dirty tricks!" He roared and struggled hard, but to no avail.
At the same time, Yan Yue also felt something strange in the inner demon space.
She opened her eyes suddenly, a hint of worry flashing in them.
"Oh no! Nong Jin is in danger!" Her heart sank and she quickened the pace of her attacks.
The incarnation of the inner demon is already dying, like a candle in the wind, which may go out at any time.
"You...you can't win..." It whispered weakly, its eyes filled with despair.
"Sorry, I am the chosen one, a cheating player!" Yan Yue sneered and gave it the final blow without mercy.
"Bye bye!"
As the incarnation of the inner demon dissipated, Yan Yue felt that her strength had been greatly enhanced. With a thought, she returned to the real world.
Nong Jin was trapped in a blood-red beam of light, his face pale and beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
The protective circle also lost the support of Nong Jin's power, and a tiny crack appeared. A trace of black air was seeping in from the crack.
"Nong Jin!" Yan Yue shouted anxiously, wanting to rush over, but was blocked by an invisible force.
Heifengsha smiled sinisterly, his eyes full of mockery.
"Little girl, your lover is about to die! Hahaha..." He laughed wildly, the red light of the staff in his hand became brighter, and the crack became larger and larger...
"Don't even think about it!" Yan Yue roared, and was about to fight desperately, but suddenly heard a childish voice -
"Amitabha, benefactor, please don't panic, I am here!" The little monk appeared beside her without her noticing, holding a golden bowl in his hand and muttering something...
