Both worlds are like dreams

Chapter 333 Demons and Monsters

The crowd continued to move forward. The sky darkened and the surroundings became quiet, as if countless wild beasts were lurking there.

An atmosphere of fear gradually spread among the team, but Mo Yunchen's black-armored army was not in chaos at all and remained in good order.

The people from Shanhe Sect and Xuyao who were sent to Xuehuang were also extremely calm and prepared for battle.

The soldiers of the Murilin Palace and the royal guards were slightly inferior. They seemed to have never experienced such a scene and were a little uncomfortable.

But the deeper you go into the forest, the more unevenly distributed the white smoke becomes, and the weaker the toxin becomes.

The crowd did not stop along the way and continued on in the darkness.

At Chou time, it unexpectedly snowed from the sky. The white smoke disappeared, but the snow was extremely heavy.

After walking for another half an hour, everyone had to stop because the road ahead was blocked.

The exit of the entire forest is filled with huge rocks and thick trees. It is barely possible to get through, but it will inevitably slow down the speed.

Mo Yunchen made a gesture and the black-armored soldiers immediately stepped forward to clean up.

Xue Huang frowned, feeling uneasy. Was her judgment wrong? Was this the opponent's killer move?

Mu Guang said, "It's not advisable to stay here for long."

Xue Huang came to Mo Ruilin and handed him a bottle of medicine, "Fifth brother, you go first."

"What nonsense! We should advance and retreat together." said Mo Ruilin.

"If we delay any longer, Apocalypse's army will catch up with us."

"No." Murilin shook his head, "Let's go together."

"It's too late." Mu Guang suddenly said. "A large number of masters are approaching here."

"Be alert!" Xue Huang shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of fire in the night sky. Dozens of streams of fire flew towards them, exploded after landing, and then flames as high as a person jumped up in an instant, and the surroundings suddenly lit up.

With the help of the firelight, Xue Huang could clearly see a group of people appearing on the rocks and branches around them.

There were about fifty people, dressed in black and wearing masks, but their weapons, the Snow Phoenix, were familiar to everyone, as they all had the Dark Moon Pavilion's logo on them.

In addition to these people, a white figure slowly fell in front of them. It was the Master of Dark Moon Pavilion.

"Your Highness the Fifth Prince, Princess Changle, it's been a long time. It's not easy to catch up with you."

Mo Ruilin said, "Master Dark Moon, I have long heard of your great name. I never thought General Shen could actually ask you to come and take my life."

"Your Highness has misunderstood. We are here today just to settle scores."

Xue Huang sneered and said, "I haven't seen you for three years. Pavilion Master has become even more shameless."

"Princess Changle, you are overpraising me."

"Apocalypse is really generous."

"It's a pity that you still saw through my flaws and didn't choose another path." The Dark Moon Pavilion Master said. "But it doesn't matter. I'll just die a little later."

"You want to kill me too?" Xue Huang asked.

"Princess, you misunderstood. Our only target is His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince." He looked at Mo Yunchen, "King Han Xi."

Mo Yunchen was not surprised and his expression remained as indifferent as ever.

The Dark Moon Pavilion Master smiled and continued, "As for Princess Changle, now that she is the eldest princess of Dongchu, we naturally dare not make things difficult for her. But if the princess insists on meddling in other people's affairs, don't blame me for being rude."

The frost sword condensed in Xue Huang's hand, and the murderous intent on her body rushed towards her. She pointed the sword at the Dark Moon Pavilion Master, "What a coincidence. I don't want to be polite today."

The Dark Moon Pavilion Master raised his eyebrows, not surprised by her choice. "It's a pity that the princess's opponent today is not me." After he said that, four more people appeared beside him.

These four people also wore masks, but judging from their figures, they seemed to be around 30 or 40 years old. There were three men and one woman, and each of them held a fine weapon.

The ghost among them was a knife with skulls inlaid on both sides of the handle. Under the reflection of the firelight, it looked like a ghost-slaying knife from hell.

The swords of the other three people also have their own characteristics, but without exception they all exude a gloomy and ghostly aura.

"Ghosts and monsters, they are taking souls and taking lives!" The Dark Moon Pavilion Master continued. "Anyone who passes this sword will be killed!"

"Zhuo Yang, Yun Qing, remember my words!" Xue Huang ordered, leaping up, and the Seven Killing Sword Qi slashed towards the obstacles blocking the way like a giant dragon.

Although this terrifying aura did not completely clear the obstacles, it opened a weak gap for the team.

At the moment, there were only people from the Dark Moon Pavilion, and it was impossible for them to stop so many people. They were just waiting for the Apocalypse Army behind them to arrive, and then all of Xue Huang and the others would surely die.

So she must not give them this opportunity.

The people from the Dark Moon Pavilion were obviously trying to delay time. At the same time, the evil spirits and monsters also set out and headed straight for the Snow Phoenix.

Mo Yunchen drew his two swords and wanted to help her, but the Dark Moon Pavilion Master blocked his way.

"Your opponent is me!"

The two sides soon started fighting. The assassins from Dark Moon Pavilion only targeted Mo Ruilin, so they all went towards him.

Fortunately, there were other people guarding them, so they couldn't do anything for the time being.

Facing the combined siege of four great masters, Xue Huang could not be distracted for even a moment.

The demon slashed at her face with a knife, and Xue Huang met it with her sword. The demon's sword was quite strange, with a hook, which locked the sword in her hand while Xue Huang was resisting.

Tian Chi and Feng Wang were like ghosts, heading straight for her heart.

Xue Huang couldn't draw her sword and was about to be seriously injured, but countless ice blades condensed behind her and flew out recklessly.

Tianchi and Fengmang had to put away their swords and resist.

The sword in Xue Huang's hand exuded an extremely cold air, and a layer of frost instantly condensed on the swords in Gui Liang and Yao Mei's hands, and the three swords were instantly frozen together.

However, Xue Huang simply dropped the sword in her hand and struck at the two of them with a palm.

The ghosts and monsters reacted extremely quickly. They retreated almost the moment Xue Huang let go, shattering her Frost Sword and avoiding her palm power.

Tian Chi and Feng Wang behind her also knocked down all of Xue Huang's ice blades, and the four of them surrounded Xue Huang again.

After this one strike, several people looked solemn.

There was disbelief in the eyes of the evil spirits, as if they had not expected that such a young woman could have such terrifying martial arts.

Xue Huang had not expected that the combined attack of these four people was so tacit, leaving no chance of survival at all.

If she hadn't understood their moves, she would have been seriously injured if not killed in the fight just now.

Gui Liang said, "Seven Killing Swordsmanship, inherited by Guigu. You are the second person who has survived the combined attack of the four of us. The first one, I'm sure you should be familiar with it."

"Master Qingfeng Sword, Sword Immortal Rongyu, and the eldest disciple of my sect." Xue Huang said calmly.

She had told Mo Yunchen before that the person who had seen the evil spirits was Rong Yu.

He once traveled to Apocalypse and had many dealings with Dark Moon Pavilion.

No one is more familiar with these evil spirits than him.

Therefore, Xue Huang had been prepared for their attack. But she still didn't expect that these four people's martial arts were so powerful and they were definitely not people who could be easily defeated.

"It can be considered a wonderful fate." Gui Liang said coldly. "Sword Immortal Rong Yu, the number one young man in this generation, is indeed worthy of his reputation. He is the only defeat of the four of us in our lives, and also the greatest shame in our lives. Today I am able to meet the disciples of Guigu again, and I hope to avenge my previous shame."

"How dare you talk about revenge when you have so many people in your group?" Xue Huang said calmly.

The faces of the four evil spirits froze.

The enchanting girl curled her lips and said, "The second-ranked genius girl on the Youth Jianghu List is indeed quite arrogant. I hope your swordsmanship is just as arrogant."

Snow Phoenix condensed ice and snow swords in her hands, and snow fell from the sky. She used the Double Seven Sword Technique and the Mysterious Ice Curse together, and with her own strength, she temporarily restrained the four evil spirits.

Mo Yunchen's strength over there was comparable to that of the Dark Moon Pavilion Master, and he successfully restrained him.

After all, there were only dozens of assassins in the Dark Moon Pavilion, and they were no match for the Shanhe Gate and the army.

They quickly cleared away a lot of obstacles and rushed out with Murilin and the others.

But at this time, Apocalypse's army also arrived and immediately fought with the Black Armor Army.

The Dark Moon Pavilion Master pulled away and went straight for Mo Ruilin, but was stopped by Mo Yunchen again.

"It seems that you have decided to become an enemy of General Shen."

Mo Yunchen said calmly, "You wanted to kill me, I just fought back."

"But the one I want to kill most right now is the Fifth Prince behind you."

"Really?" Mo Yunchen raised his eyebrows, "You obviously want to kill me."

The Dark Moon Pavilion Master smiled slightly, "Whatever, you will all die today anyway!"

After that, the two men started fighting again.

Because of the obstacles blocking the road before, the Apocalypse pursuers were unable to catch up with Mo Ruilin for a while. Only the Dark Moon Pavilion killer with great lightness skills could break away and chase him.

But the people from Shanhemen and Xuyao were able to deal with it and temporarily delayed them.

However, there were thousands of Apocalypse's pursuers, and the overall strength of the two sides was far different. Even if the Black Armored Army and the Royal Guards were brave and good at fighting, they could not stop them.

Defeat is inevitable sooner or later.

The fight between Xue Huang and the evil spirits was also thrilling. If she faced any one of them alone, she would be sure of victory.

But the combined attack of these four people was like a machine designed for killing, and each attack targeted her vital points.

Xue Huang had Seven Kills on her right hand and Seven Wounds on her left hand, and she could only barely cope with it with Mu Guang's reminders.

After several rounds, she already had two more wounds on her body.

The army suffered heavy casualties, the entire forest was littered with corpses, the air was filled with the smell of blood, and the few remaining people were forced to retreat continuously.

The attacks of the Dark Moon Pavilion Master and the evil spirits became more and more fierce, and Xue Huang and Mo Yunchen were forced to retreat continuously.

Seeing that Apocalypse's army was about to cross the obstacle, Xue Huang suddenly turned around and avoided the evil spirits.

He slapped the ground with one palm, and instantly countless ice spikes more than a person's height sprang out, together with the boulders and trees across the middle of the road, forming more obstacles, like a ten-foot-high ice wall, temporarily blocking most of Apocalypse's army.

But this palm strike consumed a huge amount of her internal energy, and for a moment her breathing became unstable and her body felt a little weak.

The evil spirits took advantage of this opportunity to launch another sneak attack.

Xue Huang barely avoided Feng Wang's first sword at first, and the next moment Tian Chi and Gui Liang's swords attacked together. She could only block with her sword horizontally, but was knocked away in an instant.

At this time, the enchanting sword also swung over, heading straight for her throat.

In the moment of crisis, Mu Guang transferred his own power to her.

Xue Huang barely dodged it, but the sharp claws still scratched her shoulder.

The bright red blood dyed her white clothes red, which was extremely eye-catching.

Xue Huang landed on the ground, calmed her breath, and her expression became more solemn.

Although they managed to hold back part of Apocalypse's army, they were still no match for the enemy with the remaining men.

The Lord of Dark Moon Pavilion and the demons and monsters chose to stop at this time, intending to let Apocalypse's army to hold them back, while they chased after Mo Ruilin and the others.

Xue Huang didn't care about that and flew in front of them. A stream of sword energy fell and stopped their intention.

The Dark Moon Pavilion Master spoke up, "With your remaining strength, you still want to stop us?"

"Retreat!" Xue Huang said, using the fourth level of the Mysterious Ice Curse. As long as they could delay for a moment, Mo Ruilin and the others would have more time to escape.

With the Snow Phoenix as the center, wind and snow were blowing, frost was spreading, and the icy breath was bone-chilling, just like a glacial hell.

Mo Yunchen's eyes changed. He knew very well what she was going to do, and he knew even more clearly what the consequences would be for her if he used this trick.

He wanted to go forward to help her, but in just a moment, ice and snow grew, and snowflakes were like sharp blades, condensing in the air at a visible speed.

He had to step back.

The Dark Moon Pavilion Master's expression changed drastically, "Not good! Retreat quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a sky full of sharp blades coming at him. Wherever they passed, they instantly froze into ice. The horrible coldness would freeze anyone to death instantly if they were touched.

The soldiers of Apocalypse stopped breathing before they could even call out. In an instant, most of them were frozen into hard ice sculptures.

The Dark Moon Pavilion Master and the evil spirits retreated at a very fast speed, using almost all their strength to avoid this horrific attack, but they were still injured in the heart by the extreme cold air.

The faces of the ghosts and monsters were even more shocked. Such terrifying strength was definitely more terrifying than Rong Yu back then.

Is this the mysterious ice curse that Guiguzi has kept for thousands of years? How can there be such a terrifying martial art in this world?

Xue Huang had already consumed a lot of internal energy, and with the remaining energy plus Mu Guang's strength, she was basically forcibly using the fourth level of the Mysterious Ice Curse.

So the consequences were obvious. She fell to the ground and instantly vomited blood. Her face was completely pale.

Mo Yunchen immediately stepped forward, took advantage of the Xuanbing Curse to temporarily block the Dark Moon Pavilion Master and others, picked up Xue Huang and left quickly.
