Chapter 250: Fierce Battle
As Ji Yang fought fiercely, the situation in the other mines also changed.
“What does Junior Brother Ji say?”
He Feng asked Ruan Yong’an beside him.
“Let’s make our move starting today!”
He Feng’s expression became clear. Although the battle was at the center of the mine, they could still hear some commotion from the mine nearby.
Especially after just receiving Ji Yang’s Transmission, both felt increasingly uneasy.
Now that Ji Yang’s message had arrived, the two hesitated no longer. They channeled their entire magical power to attack the restraint shackles in their hands.
The restraint shackles had been nearly worn down by them before; now they just needed to deliver a final blow, repeating the previous steps with extra force.
As their aura began to surge, the demonic path cultivator guarding them changed expression and shouted, “What are you doing?!”
However, the two released from their restraints wasted no time and charged at the demonic cultivator together.
As a guard of the mine, this cultivator was not one of the inner disciples of the Heaven Demon Sect and was rather older, only at the mid Foundation Establishment stage.
Faced with this sudden attack, he was quickly overpowered by the well-coordinated efforts of Ruan Yong’an and He Feng.
The mine was quite large; although the overseer had ordered many demonic path cultivators to prepare for battle in the mine, the distance between them was still considerable.
This meant that no one noticed when the demonic cultivator died.
After solving the immediate threat, the two used their previously arranged method to notify the other disciples of the He Dao Sect.
Once they received the precise news, many He Dao Sect disciples began to rally and resist instead of remaining silent.
Although they didn’t have their storage bags, their spells were intact, and with everyone’s combined strength, they started to fight back against the guarding demonic cultivators effectively.
However, among the guarding demonic cultivators were several Golden Core Stage cultivators.
Often, one Golden Core Stage cultivator would require several He Dao Sect disciples to barely hold their ground, and even a slight mistake could be fatal.
Yet, many outstanding talents existed among the He Dao Sect disciples.
In the absence of higher-level cultivators, both sides had their own strengths and weaknesses.
Seeing the He Dao Sect disciples suddenly breaking free from their restraint shackles left the other imprisoned cultivators in shock.
Some cultivators begged the He Dao Sect disciples for help, while others asked how they could also remove the restraint shackles.
In response, many He Dao Sect disciples did not hide the method; at this point, the specifics were no longer important.
If they could break free, they could also contribute to the effort.
While the battle raged outside, the fight on Ji Yang’s side had reached a boiling point.
As Ji Yang unleashed the sword intent he had cultivated, paired with the Thousands of Sword Energies from his iron pick, the power of this strike was unparalleled.
At that moment, not only did the maidens feel a strong sense of danger, but Ren Yuning also felt her heart race.
This attack had clearly exceeded the previous sword’s power, enough to threaten the lives of everyone present.
Meanwhile, the overseer beside them was trembling. Although they were all at the Nascent Soul Stage, he felt that his Nascent Soul was somehow different from Ji Yang’s.
If it weren’t for Ren Yuning still being in front of him, he would have thought of fleeing without a trace.
But it was just a thought, as he couldn’t just leave if he wanted to stay in the Heaven Demon Sect. Instead, he had to step forward bravely.
Yet, as the sword energy emerged, he lacked the courage to move forward and could only ensure that he would not run away.
Facing Ji Yang’s sword, Ren Yuning no longer allowed the maidens to act, but instead took out a green flag from her storage ring!
This flag was palm-sized, decorated with faint golden patterns, and at its center was an image of an ancient bronze bell.
This was at least a high-level magical treasure!
Holding the flag, Ren Yuning pressed her hands together, and magic power quickly surged into the flag.
As the power flowed in, the flag in her hands began to expand in the breeze.
“Form!” she uttered softly.
Instantly, the flag transformed into an invisible bronze bell that enveloped everyone present.
At that moment, the sword intent struck. Though it seemed ordinary, like a gentle breeze brushing past,
after the wind passed, a tiny crack appeared on the flag in Ren Yuning’s hand.
This crack grew larger, quickly spreading across the entire flag’s surface.
With a crisp sound, the flag in Ren Yuning’s hand suddenly shattered, and the bronze bell around them dispersed at that moment.
However, in contrast, Ji Yang’s sword intent also dissipated at this time.
Both sides were momentarily stunned by this situation.
Ren Yuning couldn’t believe that a high-level defensive magical treasure in her hands had just been destroyed like that.
Though it wasn’t the best treasure she had, it had been with her for quite some time and was very easy for her to use!
To have it shattered by Ji Yang’s sword was utterly shocking!
But considering the power of such sword energy, it seemed Ji Yang had suffered a loss as well.
Perhaps this was the sword intent left behind by her Master, Ye Wuchen; otherwise, how could it hold such power?
While the destruction of her treasure pained her, the loss to the enemy’s sword energy brought her some comfort.
At the same time, Ji Yang furrowed his brow.
That was a sword intent he had cultivated for a long time! While it wasn’t the strongest strike he had, it was still quite powerful.
Now he only had two powerful sword intents left.
He had thought he could eliminate the person in front of him, but instead, he had only heard a splash.
This made Ji Yang question the genuine value of the Sword Cultivation technique!
After both sides regained their composure, Ji Yang returned to normal.
If one sword intent wasn’t enough, then he would unleash another.
But this time, the sword intent would be different.
Ji Yang’s eyes suddenly changed, and the Heart Sword divine ability was activated!
As long as there was a defense, there would be flaws!
If he could find the weakness in the defense and unleash his powerful sword energy, he could break through!
As Ji Yang launched another sword strike, Ren Yuning’s expression changed slightly.
But she quickly regained her composure. Ji Yang’s sword energy was indeed powerful, but she was not weak!
She had more than one of these kinds of treasures!
In a swift motion, Ren Yuning discarded the shattered flag and instead took down a golden hairpin from her head.
This item was her personal magical treasure, a combination of offense and defense, stronger than the previous flag!
As the hairpin gleamed brightly in her hand, the next moment, a golden shield enveloped everyone again, and then the hairpin transformed into a golden beam, striking towards Ji Yang’s sword energy!
In the narrow mine, there were not many techniques to employ, relying instead on sheer force.
Whoever’s attack was stronger would be the victor!
Seeing his opponent take the initiative to strike, Ji Yang did not hold back.
The two attacks collided in the narrow mine, resulting in a loud explosion that sent stones raining down, hinting that they might be buried alive.
However, the mine only trembled slightly before soon settling down.
With an explosion of not particularly great power, the durability of the mine far exceeded the ordinary; otherwise, the cultivators wouldn’t need to dig day after day.
What had happened earlier was merely an accident!
