Journey to the End of the Night-Chapter 1270 - 826: Desperate Battle (Part 2)
But he knew... that pig demon was about to unleash its ultimate move.
The pig demon’s grotesque and terrifying mouth opened wide, gathering layer upon layer, circle upon circle of fearful sound waves only visible to cultivators.
A thunderous roar erupted from its mouth!
With those layers of terrifying sound waves amplifying the roar’s power several times over!
The solidly constructed rooftop was blown away by this sound wave, revealing the true face of the night and the swaying stars.
Baili An trembled instantly, hurriedly using his sword to steady himself, preventing himself from collapsing to the ground.
Within the pig demon’s roar, contained an extremely terrifying sonic Divine Skill, that voice was like a substantial massive boulder, crushing towards him from all directions.
In that instant, Baili An felt he was on the brink of death.
Fortunately, from the Quansheng Sword he held tightly, came a child’s laughter, that sound as pleasant as a bell, seemed to weave an invisible protective shield, isolating the pig demon’s roar.
Baili An’s ghastly pale complexion finally eased, allowing him to stand straight.
Meanwhile, Zhao Baixun, who still had strength to struggle, now lay limp like noodles under the pig demon’s palm.
Through the pig demon’s fingers, Baili An vaguely saw Zhao Baixun bleeding from all seven orifices, looking miserable, yet fortunately still breathing weakly.
Li Fuyuan foamed at the mouth and fainted.
Tie Yun was in the best condition among them, after all, he had yet to act, preserving his strength, at the moment the pig demon opened its mouth.
He seemed to anticipate something, the threads entwined around his wrist split into two red clusters, darting into his ears.
Evidently, it had also isolated part of the sound wave attack.
Even so, Tie Yun’s nose and mouth bled, barely able to stand.
And the young girl faced the pig demon’s skyward roar, directly confronting the sound wave attack.
Baili An was most concerned about her.
He looked up, seeing that the girl’s face was slightly pale, the corner of her lips stained with a dazzling red, seemingly only lightly injured.
However... the ice crystal she was loosely holding at that moment emitted an unbearable cracking sound, finally fracturing inch by inch, under the roar’s echo, the shattered ice flew backwards towards the girl.
As Baili An nervously tightened his grip on the Quansheng Sword, his eyes flickered, seeing beneath the scattering ice fragments, suddenly... a glimpse of a gleaming white sword tip.
The sword tip’s sharpness flickered, faintly indicating its extraordinariness.
As more ice shards dispersed... until they completely vanished.
In its place... appeared a brand new three-foot icy edged longsword in everyone’s view.
The girl’s eyes were stern, filled with determined focus.
At last, her long empty hand finally firmly gripped that sword...
The bright sword body hummed and trembled, its radiant, soul-stealing icy edge exuding a biting coldness, surrounding the girl with ethereal frost mist, like a dragon entwined on the sword, exuding a chilling killing intent.
Baili An’s eyes flashed, at the sword in her hand.
Chillingly cold, clearly also a treasure of considerable quality.
The girl tightly grasped the Cold Sword, her gaze like a torch, stabbing with precision onto the pig demon’s hefty arm, the sword tip cut through the pig demon’s greasy fat, the chilling coldness freezing it all, the longsword slicing, nearly severing the pig demon’s hefty arm.
The pig demon roared, the fat on its right arm suddenly tightening into terrifying muscles, throwing a punch fiercely at the girl’s face.
The punch wind rumbled, like thunder exploding, on the massive fist, black and red demon energy rapidly formed a demonized ferocious beast, ferocious and bloodthirsty!
The girl’s expression unchanged, she retaliated with a palm strike!
Beneath her clean palm, the wind exploded, pure white frost Spiritual Energy surging.
The delicate palm clashed with the ferocious meteor-like fist!
Two arcs of wind from where the fist and palm met encircled them.
A loud bang, the entire inn collapsed under the collision of these two forces, reducing it to rubble.
Fortunately, Baili An anticipated that such an event might occur beforehand, and had already arranged for the assistant and the chefs in the back kitchen to swiftly evacuate the premises after nightfall, thus avoiding innocent casualties.
The girl’s palm successfully blocked the punch attack from the pig demon, but atop the fist, there lingered a shadowy image of a demonized ferocious beast.
The shadowy beast let out a roar, charging forward, entangling like a sinister Evil Ghost, its mouth full of tusks fiercely biting toward the girl’s slender shoulder.
If that bite landed, it would surely tear off a large chunk of flesh.
The pig demon’s Thunderstorm Punch was indeed formidable and powerful.
The girl was fully engaged in neutralizing the force of that punch, entirely too occupied to deal with the ensuing attack.
Her beautiful eyes wide open, she was utterly shocked by the beast conjured from the punch, clearly underestimating the pig demon’s strength.
The ferocious beast’s shadow dashed swiftly, Baili An saw it, yet his speed was far from sufficient to intervene, but he nonetheless gravely raised his sword.
The girl dared not confront it head-on; beneath her delicate white boots, a frost flower blossomed.
She lightly stepped on the frost flower, leveraging its power to twist her shoulder, draw her Longsword, and deftly in mid-air turned to dodge the bite aimed at her shoulder.
However, her movement was still a hair too slow; the ferocious maw twisted furiously and ended up biting onto the girl’s calf.
Blood spurted instantly; the jagged tusks in the beast’s mouth directly pierced through the flesh and bone of the girl’s leg, refusing to let go.
The girl’s face turned pale, letting out a muted groan of pain.
The pig demon’s left arm was mostly severed by the sword, hanging askew, yet its left hand still tightly gripped Zhao Baixun’s head.
At this moment, Zhao Baixun bled from the seven apertures, his breath weak, kicking feebly, yet unable to escape the clutch of this hand.
Luckily, Tie Yun intervened in time, a red rune flew out from his ear, transforming into dozens of gently intertwining red threads, gently winding around the pig demon’s left hand.
The seemingly blood-like thin rune threads, faint spirit light flickering, managed to pries open the pig demon’s fingers.
Zhao Baixun’s body relaxed, falling to the ground; his bloodied face looked at the girl’s dire state and urgently said, "Quick, save her."
No need for him to say, Tie Yun acted without hesitation, another red rune flew from his other ear.
This rune, shimmering with red light, appeared much sharper, like a steel wire line slicing toward the ferocious beast.
However, it couldn’t move the beast in the slightest, which continued to bite down fiercely on the girl’s calf.
Painful beads of sweat rolled down her pale face, continuously falling; her hand halfway swung down with the Longsword, but was sharply seized by the pig demon’s large hand.
Yet the sword was clearly remarkable, even the pig demon couldn’t immediately destroy it.
Zhao Baixun, seeing an attack failed, urgently said, "Quick, save her."
Tie Yun controlled the rune once more, intending to make another attempt.
However, Zhao Baixun’s urgent shout seemed to draw the pig demon’s attention.
The pig demon’s murky eyes lowered, gazing at Zhao Baixun collapsed on the ground with a sinister smile.
The wide foot lifted, sending thick rubble and dust flying from the ruins, then stomped heavily towards Zhao Baixun!
The foot was immensely wide, looming overhead like a mountain about to collapse.
Zhao Baixun, sensing death approaching, stared wide-eyed, desperately screaming, "Save me! Save me! Save me first! Tie Yun!"
Tie Yun, helpless, had to control the red rune to drag him out from under the stomp, bringing him to his side.
However, with this maneuver, the rune evidently lost its last trace of Spiritual Power, dispersing away.
The pig demon’s foot stepped into nothingness, the ground beneath trembled fiercely, splitting open, bricks and stones scattered, the momentum massive, akin to being smashed by a gigantic rock.
Zhao Baixun, heart pounding, stammered, "Can’t... can’t defeat it, this... pig demon is too powerful, escape... we must escape quickly!"
At the moment the inn collapsed, the Binding Character Technique the three had performed had already dissipated.
Tie Yun frowned, "Escape? Aren’t we saving that girl?"
Zhao Baixun violently grabbed his collar, eyes red, saying, "Save what? We can’t even care for our own lives! Still thinking about others! It was them who led the pig demon here, it’s nothing to do with our Moon Accompanying Sect! While she distracts the pig demon, we must escape quickly! Delay... and no one will be able to leave!"
