Chapter 217 Ink-Black Tentacles
This eerie wind, like a messenger from the deepest hell, brought an aura of death and fear, making people shudder and tremble with fear.
Witnessing this horrifying scene, everyone's faces turned ashen.
Their hearts were pounding so hard they felt like they were about to jump out of their throats.
Without the slightest hesitation, everyone swiftly gathered around Huan Yuechu, protecting her in the middle.
Everyone gripped their weapons tightly, their knuckles turning white from the excessive force, and their palms sweating.
Their eyes were wide open, their gazes fixed intently on what lay ahead, not daring to relax for a moment.
At that moment, an indescribable sense of foreboding arose in everyone's hearts simultaneously.
This feeling is like the calm before a storm; though the surface appears calm, it conceals endless crises and dangers.
It was as if a ferocious beast was lurking in the darkness, waiting for its chance to strike.
They are ready to pounce on this unsuspecting group at any moment and bring them utter destruction.
Just when the atmosphere was so tense that you could almost hear everyone's heartbeat.
Huan Yuechu, who had been silent all along, suddenly pushed the person in front of her away gently and stood out like a bright star in the darkness.
Her beautiful eyes shone with unwavering determination, like the brightest star in the night sky, staring intently at the chilling wind ahead.
A fearless smile curled slightly at the corners of his lips, a smile that was both resolute and mysterious, captivating all who beheld it.
She took a deep breath, then slowly raised her fair, jade-like hands and began to mutter incantations.
As her clear yet deep voice rang out, a soft light gradually emanated from her delicate body.
The light initially appeared very faint, like a candle flickering in the wind, as if it could be extinguished at any moment.
But it stubbornly exists, like an indestructible barrier, forcefully blocking the oncoming yin wind from the outside.
As Huan Yuechu chanted the incantation faster and faster, the light grew stronger and stronger at a visible speed.
It was no longer limited to protecting Huan Yuechu itself, but gradually spread towards the Yin Wind, like a surging wave crashing against the rocks on the shore, with a majestic and unstoppable momentum.
Everyone around stared in astonishment, mouths agape, at the incredible scene unfolding before them.
Their hearts, which had been prepared to die, were now rekindled with hope by Huan Yuechu's powerful strength and indomitable spirit.
However, just when everyone thought the situation was about to be reversed, countless pitch-black tentacles suddenly emerged from the eerie and terrifying wind.
There are hundreds, even thousands, of these tentacles, densely packed like a black ocean, waving wildly and menacingly in the air.
They frantically pounded on the light barrier created by Huan Yuechu in an extremely violent and ferocious manner.
Each strike was like a thunderbolt, accompanied by a deafening roar, as if it were about to tear the entire space apart.
At the same time, the violent impact generated countless dazzling sparks, as beautiful and spectacular as fireworks, but containing deadly danger.
Faced with such fierce and relentless attacks, Huan Yuechu's brows furrowed tightly, and her once beautiful face now appeared somewhat pale.
A fine layer of sweat quickly appeared on his forehead, sliding down his cheeks and dripping onto the ground.
However, despite the dire situation, she gritted her teeth and struggled to maintain the barrier of light.
Huan Yuechu's hands trembled slightly as she continuously channeled her spiritual energy into the light, attempting to enhance its defensive capabilities.
However, the eerie wind seemed to sense her persistence and began to intensify its attack.
The tentacles moved more and more violently, intertwining and entwining themselves to form an even more powerful force.
As time went on, cracks gradually appeared in the barrier of light, and it began to teeter on the brink of collapse, on the verge of shattering under the immense pressure.
At the critical moment, Huan Yuechu suddenly shouted and quickly pulled out a rune radiating strange power from his pocket with his right hand.
Without hesitation, she affixed the rune to her brow, and instantly, an even more powerful energy erupted from her body…
In that instant, an incredibly powerful force erupted from her petite body like a volcanic eruption!
This force was surging and unstoppable, and it directly broke through the eerie and cold wind!
As the eerie wind dissipated, the chilling aura of death that had permeated the area vanished in an instant.
Witnessing this scene, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief.
However, before they could fully relax, a subtle ripple suddenly appeared in the surrounding air.
It's like the ripples that appear when a small pebble is thrown into a calm lake.
Huan Yuechu's heart tightened, and her sharp eyes quickly scanned her surroundings. At the same time, she lowered her voice and warned, "Everyone be careful, this matter is probably not over yet!"
Sure enough, before she could finish speaking, there was a loud crash.
Suddenly, the calm water surface splashed, and several huge water snakes shot out of the water like arrows!
These water snakes were covered in a layer of wet scales that shimmered with a cold, piercing light in the sunlight.
Their eyes revealed a chilling, bloodthirsty glint.
The water snakes opened their gaping maws and pounced on the crowd with lightning speed, their speed was simply unimaginable!
Faced with such a fierce attack, Huan Yuechu dared not be careless in the slightest. Her hands moved rapidly, forming a series of complex and mysterious hand seals.
Immediately afterwards, streaks of blazing flames roared towards the water snakes like fire dragons.
But these water snakes were exceptionally agile; they twisted their long bodies and easily avoided the oncoming flames.
Just then, Su Jinnian roared and charged forward without hesitation.
He gripped a sharp longsword tightly in his hand, the blade gleaming coldly, and thrust it straight at the vital spot of one of the water snakes—its seven-inch mark!
Caught off guard, the water snake was struck hard by the longsword and immediately let out a painful hiss.
However, the injured water snake did not give up. Enraged, it lashed out with its thick, powerful tail.
Su Jinyan was flung away violently, like a kite with a broken string.
