MTLNOVEL Chapter 791: Destroy the Formation and Leave!
They knew that only by continuously improving their strength could they survive in this Cultivation Realm.
Outside the valley, You Ming was planning his next move, his heart filled with the flames of revenge.
In the days that followed, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang worked even harder on their cultivation, knowing that only by becoming stronger could they protect everything they cherished.
Qing Shuang made new discoveries on the runes of the Jade Pendant; she began trying to integrate the power of the runes into their cultivation, hoping to accelerate their cultivation level improvement.
Luo Chen, on the other hand, was studying a new swordsmanship technique that could better synergize with Qing Shuang's runes, forming a combat style that was both offensive and defensive.
They learned from each other, helped each other, and both of their strengths steadily increased.
However, just as they were immersed in their cultivation, You Ming appeared once again.
This time, he brought a powerful cultivator who excelled in Space Magic, capable of easily traversing between various arrays.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang sensed unusual spatial fluctuations in the valley, and they immediately became alert.
When they rushed to the edge of the valley, You Ming and the cultivator were already standing outside the array.
"Luo Chen, Qing Shuang, this time you have nowhere to escape." You Ming said with a cold smile.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged a glance; they knew this would be an unprecedented challenge.
Luo Chen drew his Longsword, while Qing Shuang prepared the runes, both ready to face the battle.
You Ming and the cultivator launched their attack simultaneously, combining Space Magic and Shadow Magic, forming a powerful destructive force.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, with the help of the array, struggled to withstand the enemy's assault.
The battle lasted for a long time, and although Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were at a disadvantage, they did not give up.
Suddenly, in the midst of battle, an inspiration struck Qing Shuang; she remembered a special rune on the Jade Pendant that could temporarily distort space, creating a short-lived barrier.
"Luo Chen, use this rune!" Qing Shuang shouted loudly.
Luo Chen immediately followed Qing Shuang's instructions, injecting Spiritual Power into the Jade Pendant, which emitted a light, forming a warped space barrier.
You Ming and the cultivator's attacks were blocked by the barrier, unable to advance an inch further.
You Ming and the cultivator were shocked; they hadn't expected Luo Chen and Qing Shuang to have such means.
Seizing the opportunity, Luo Chen launched a counterattack, his swordsmanship growing sharper, and Qing Shuang supported with the runes, their cooperation seamless.
After a fierce battle, You Ming and the cultivator were finally defeated.
A strike knocked them directly to the ground.
They even spat out fresh blood.
You Ming and the cultivator were caught off guard by Luo Chen and Qing Shuang's counterattack; they hadn't expected this seemingly ordinary pair of cultivators to possess such formidable strength and coordination.
You Ming struggled to stand, a flash of unwillingness and anger passing through his eyes, but his body was already severely injured, making it difficult to fight any longer.
"You... How could you..." You Ming's voice was intermittent, full of confusion and unwillingness.
Qing Shuang stood at the edge of the array, her gaze firm and calm, "You Ming, we do not wish to become enemies with you, but since you have repeatedly invaded our territory, we have no choice but to kill you here."
You Ming's companion, the cultivator adept in Space Magic, though not fatally wounded, was also covered in scars.
He looked at You Ming, knowing that this operation had failed and that they must retreat.
"You Ming, let's go." The cultivator said in a low voice, then cast Space Magic, preparing to leave with You Ming.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang watched the two attempting to escape.
They smiled slightly, then flickered, reappearing in front of the two.
With one slash, they decapitated both heads.
In the nighttime beyond the valley, the corpses of You Ming and the cultivator lay quietly on the ground, their flames of life extinguished.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang stood beside the bodies, feeling no joy.
They knew that the struggles in the cultivation realm were endless, and today's victory was perhaps only a temporary peace.
"Qing Shuang, we need to dispose of these bodies quickly; we can't let their comrades discover them." Luo Chen said in a low voice.
Qing Shuang nodded, taking out a Talisman Paper from her bosom, chanting a curse, and turning the paper into a flame that burned the bodies to ashes.
"Luo Chen, what do you think we should do next?" Qing Shuang asked, her voice carrying a hint of fatigue.
Luo Chen pondered for a moment, then replied, "We need to strengthen the valley's defenses and be more vigilant. You Ming's appearance wasn't coincidental; there might be more powerful forces behind him."
Qing Shuang nodded in agreement, knowing that Luo Chen was right. They had to prepare for the worst.
In the following days, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang started to enhance the valley's defenses.
They used the runes on the Jade Pendant to set up more complex arrays that could not only conceal the valley's existence but also sound an alarm when the enemy approached.
At the same time, they did not slack off in their cultivation.
Luo Chen continued to study his swordsmanship, while Qing Shuang delved deeper into the runes on the Jade Pendant, hoping to discover more powerful spells.
One day, while Luo Chen was practicing swordsmanship, Qing Shuang suddenly came running hurriedly.
"Luo Chen, come quickly!" Qing Shuang's voice had a hint of excitement in it.
Luo Chen stopped his sword, following Qing Shuang to a hidden corner of the valley.
