Chapter 455
Yang Jian continued to attack the weak points of the black gas barrier. Each strike was extremely accurate. The blade cut through the air, causing a sharp whistling sound.
Under his attack, tiny cracks gradually appeared in the black gas barrier.
The cracks spread like a spider web, revealing a faint glimmer of light.
The corners of Yang Jian's mouth slightly raised, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes:"Finally found the flaw."
When Sun Wukong saw this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He suddenly swung his golden cudgel and rushed forward like lightning.
The golden hoop stick drew a dazzling arc in the air, and the golden light at the tip of the stick suddenly flashed and hit the crack directly.
He growled:"Break it for me!"
With a deafening roar, the black gas barrier was hit hard by the golden hoop. The cracks widened instantly, and part of the barrier shattered, turning into countless black gas fragments that dissipated in the air.
The figure of Chen Tianjun behind the barrier finally appeared. He was still sitting cross-legged, with his hands in seals. Black air was surrounding him, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
Chen Tianjun smiled coldly, his voice as piercing as the cold wind:"You guys do have some skills, but unfortunately..."
As he spoke, he suddenly pushed his hands forward. The ground shook instantly and countless black shadows emerged from the ground, transforming into hideous monsters, pouncing towards Sun Wukong and Yang Jian with fangs and claws.
Sun Wukong raised his eyebrows, and swung the golden cudgel in his hand violently. A golden light flashed like a rainbow, instantly defeating the black shadow monster that was rushing towards him.
He sneered:"Little tricks!"
However, more dark shadow monsters continued to pour in, completely blocking out the light in the cave, leaving only darkness.
Yang Jian's three-pointed, double-edged sword drew a silver light in the air. Wherever the blade passed, the black shadow monsters turned into black gas and dissipated.
A trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes:"These monsters seem to be endless. We must find the source."
At this moment, Li Jing's voice came from outside the cave:"Nezha, get ready!"
When Nezha heard this, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes. The broken spear in his hand shook violently, and a blazing flame ignited at the tip of the spear.
He growled:"It's finally my turn!"
Li Jing stood at the entrance of the cave, swung the sword in his hand suddenly, and the runes on the sword glowed brightly. He shouted in a low voice:"Come on fire!"
Before he finished speaking, Nezha's broken spear suddenly stabbed out, and the flame was like a fire dragon, rushing straight towards Chen Tianjun's body.
The flames collided with the black gas, causing bursts of explosions. Chen Tianjun's expression finally changed. He quickly changed his hand seals, and the black gas barrier condensed again, trying to block the flame attack.
However, the flames were so fierce that the black gas barrier quickly collapsed under the impact of the flames, and the flames were heading straight for Chen Tianjun's face.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong laughed out loud:
"My goodness, this fire is burning strong!"
He swung the golden cudgel in his hand violently, defeating all the black shadow monsters blocking his way, and then he flashed and pounced towards Chen Tianjun.
A trace of panic flashed across Chen Tianjun's eyes, but he quickly calmed down, quickly formed seals with his hands, and the black air barrier condensed again, blocking in front of him.
However, Sun Wukong's golden cudgel had already swung, the golden light collided with the black air, and the barrier was shattered again.
Yang Jian's three-pointed, double-edged sword followed closely behind, with the blade pointing directly at Chen Tianjun's throat.
Chen Tianjun was forced to take a half step back, a fierce look flashed in his eyes:"You think you can beat me like this?"
He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, which turned into a blood rune and merged into the black air. The black air instantly became as solid as substance and blocked all the attacks from the three people.
Seeing this, Li Jing frowned, the long sword in his hand drooped slightly, and he shouted in a low voice:
"Nezha, come again!"
Nezha nodded in response, and the broken spear ignited flames again and rushed straight towards Chen Tianjun.
However, the black gas barrier remained solid and the flames could not completely break through it.
Sun Wukong snorted coldly, and the golden cudgel in his hand suddenly turned, shining with golden light, and growled:
"I don't believe I can't break through your broken barrier!"
After he said that, he suddenly leaped up, and the golden cudgel smashed towards the barrier like a mountain.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the black air barrier finally collapsed completely, and Chen Tianjun's figure was exposed in front of the four people.
His face was pale, a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes, and he quickly formed seals with his hands, trying to cast the spell again.
However, Yang Jian's three-pointed, double-edged sword had already been swung, and the blade was heading straight for Chen Tianjun's chest.
Chen Tianjun was forced to retreat, and his figure flashed and disappeared into the darkness of the cave.
Sun Wukong waved his golden cudgel and sneered:"You run fast!"
He turned to look at Li Jing, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes:"Old Li, this fire attack is really timely!"
Li Jing smiled slightly, and the long sword in his hand drooped slightly:“Only by cooperating with each other can we win.”
Yang Jian frowned slightly and whispered:
"Although Chen Tianjun escaped, his injuries are serious. We should take the opportunity to chase him."
Nezha held the broken spear tightly. Although the flame on the tip of the spear was weak, his eyes were still firm:
"That's right, we must not let him have another chance to recover!"
Li Jing nodded, his eyes deep:"Chase!"
He waved his hand and led everyone to chase in the direction Chen Tianjun escaped.
As soon as the words fell, the ground of the cave began to shake violently, and countless black shadows emerged from the ground. They had different shapes, some like twisted tree roots, some like struggling ghosts, and they all exuded a disgusting stench.
In the darkness, one can only vaguely make out their sharp claws and eyes flashing with cold light.
Seeing this, Sun Wukong scratched his head nonchalantly, and slammed his golden cudgel on the ground with a deafening sound:
"Old Chen, what are you trying to do? Are you calling on your little brothers to die?"
With a flash of his body, he rushed into the darkness. His golden cudgel turned into a golden storm, knocking away the surrounding darkness.
Yang Jian followed closely behind, his three-pointed, double-edged sword transformed into a ray of silver light, and shuttled through the group of black shadows. Wherever it passed, all the black shadows were cut in half, black liquid splashed everywhere, and an even stronger fishy smell filled the air.
Due to vibrations and fighting, rubble kept falling from the stone walls of the cave, raising clouds of dust.
Although Nezha was the youngest, he was not at a disadvantage at all. Holding a broken spear burning with fire, he flexibly shuttled between the dark shadows. The flames burned the dark shadows ashes, making a "hissing" sound. Together with the battle of Sun Wukong and Yang Jian, he formed an indestructible line of defense.
Nezha's face turned slightly red due to the exertion, and beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead, but his hand holding the gun was extremely firm.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Li Jing swung the sword in his hand suddenly, and a golden light like a rainbow chopped straight at the black vines in front of him.
Wherever the sword passed, the black air dissipated like a tide, and the vines made a sharp breaking sound and turned into ashes in an instant.
He shouted:"break!"
The sound echoed in the cave like thunder, causing the surrounding black air to tremble slightly.
Sun Wukong's eyes lit up and he swung his golden cudgel suddenly, bringing up a violent storm and thunder.
The shadow of the stick was like a dragon, emitting golden light, and it directly hit the resentful spirits that had not yet dispersed.
The vengeful spirit let out a shrill wail, its body twisted and shattered in the golden light, and finally turned into nothingness.
Sun Wukong grinned, with a fierce look in his eyes:"How dare these ghosts block my way!"
Yang Jian's third eye suddenly opened, and a cold light flashed in his pupils.
His eyes penetrated through the layers of black air and quickly locked onto Chen Tianjun's figure. Chen Tianjun was hiding behind a stone wall, forming seals with his hands, surrounded by black air, as if preparing a new round of spells.
Yang Jian sneered, and swung out the three-pointed, double-edged sword suddenly. The blade cut through the air and went straight for Chen Tianjun's throat.
He whispered:
"Chen Tianjun, your tricks end here!"
Chen Tianjun sensed the danger, his face changed, and he quickly changed seals with his hands. The black air barrier condensed again, trying to block Yang Jian's attack.
However, Yang Jian's sword was so powerful that the black air barrier was torn apart in an instant like paper under the blade.
Chen Tianjun was forced to take several steps back. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes and veins bulged on his forehead. It was obvious that he had tried his best.
When Nezha saw this, the broken spear in his hand shook violently, and a blazing flame ignited at the tip of the spear.
He growled:"Chen Tianjun, prepare to die!"
The flames were like a fire dragon, rushing straight towards Chen Tianjun.
The flames collided with the black gas, causing bursts of explosions. Chen Tianjun's face became even paler, and the black gas barrier quickly collapsed under the impact of the flames.
Li Jing waved the sword in his hand, and the runes on the sword glowed brightly. He said in a deep voice:
"Heavenly soldiers, listen up! Conduct a carpet search and completely eliminate the remaining evil spirits!"
The heavenly soldiers moved at the sound, their silver armor flashing and their spears like a forest. They quickly dispersed to various parts of the cave and surrounded the exit.
Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong leaped up and swung his golden cudgel fiercely. The shadow of the cudgel was as big as a mountain and hit Chen Tianjun directly in the face.
He growled:
"Chen Tianjun, your doomsday has come!"
The golden cudgel carried tremendous force and smashed hard on Chen Tianjun's head.
Chen Tianjun hurriedly raised his hands, and the black air barrier condensed again, but this time it could not completely block Sun Wukong's attack.
The golden hoop collided with the black gas barrier, causing a strong shock wave to erupt, causing rubble to fall from the walls of the cave.
Yang Jian took advantage of the victory and pursued him. The three-pointed, double-edged sword drew a silver light in the air, and the blade went straight to Chen Tianjun's chest.
Chen Tianjun was forced to retreat, dodging like a ghost, but Yang Jian's blade followed him like a shadow, forcing him to defend with all his strength.
Chen Tianjun's face became paler and paler, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and the black gas barrier became real again.
Nezha's broken spear followed closely behind, and flames swept in like a whirlwind, completely blocking Chen Tianjun's retreat.
The flames collided with the black air, making a hissing sound, and a burnt smell filled the air.
Chen Tianjun was forced to retreat step by step by the flames, and a trace of despair finally flashed in his eyes.
Upon seeing this, Sun Wukong swung the golden cudgel in his hand violently, and a golden light like a rainbow rushed straight to Chen Tianjun's face.
Chen Tianjun raised his hands in panic, and the black air barrier condensed again, but this time it could not completely block Sun Wukong's attack.
The golden hoop collided with the black gas barrier, causing a strong shock wave to erupt, causing rubble to fall from the walls of the cave.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, Chen Tianjun was severely knocked away by the golden hoop, and his body hit the stone wall like a kite with a broken string.
A huge dent was smashed into the stone wall, and Chen Tianjun's body fell heavily to the ground, blood spurting out of his mouth, his face as pale as paper.
Yang Jian took advantage of the situation and pursued him. The three-pointed, double-edged sword drew a streak of silver light in the air, and the blade went straight for Chen Tianjun's throat.
Chen Tianjun hurriedly raised his hands, and the black air barrier condensed again, but this time it could not completely block Yang Jian's attack.
The blade penetrated the black air barrier and headed straight for Chen Tianjun's chest.
Nezha's broken spear followed closely behind, and the flame at the tip of the spear swept in like a whirlwind, completely blocking Chen Tianjun's retreat.
The flames collided with the black air, making a hissing sound, and a burnt smell filled the air.
Chen Tianjun was forced to retreat step by step by the flames, and a trace of despair finally flashed in his eyes.
Li Jing stood on a high place, his eyes were as sharp as torches, the long sword in his hand drooped slightly, and a trace of black air still remained on the tip of the sword.
He said coldly:
"Chen Tianjun, you have committed many evil deeds. Today is your end."
Chen Tianjun struggled to stand up, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of resentment:
"You think you can kill me like this? That's ridiculous!"
"Really?" Sun Wukong grinned and swung the golden cudgel in his hand violently. The golden light was like a rainbow and went straight to Chen Tianjun's face.
Chen Tianjun hurriedly raised his hands, and the black air barrier condensed again, but this time it could not completely block Sun Wukong's attack.
The golden hoop collided with the black gas barrier, causing a strong shock wave to erupt, causing rubble to fall from the walls of the cave.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, Chen Tianjun's body was blown away again, and he fell heavily to the ground, spurting blood from his mouth. He completely lost the strength to resist.
Li Jing waved his hand, and the heavenly soldiers immediately stepped forward and held Chen Tianjun firmly.
Chen Tianjun's eyes were empty and his body collapsed weakly on the ground, leaving him no room for resistance.
Sun Wukong put away his golden cudgel, clapped his hands, and said with a smile:
"Finally I got rid of this guy."
Yang Jian nodded, his eyes still alert:"Although Chen Tianjun has been captured, there may still be his accomplices in this cave. We must thoroughly investigate."
Nezha held the broken spear tightly. The flame on the tip of the spear had gone out, but his eyes were still firm:
"We must not allow him to have another chance to stir up trouble!"
Li Jing smiled slightly, and the long sword in his hand drooped slightly:"Heavenly soldiers, listen up! Continue searching and make sure to completely eliminate the remaining enemies!"
The heavenly soldiers moved at the sound, their silver armor flashing and their spears like a forest. They quickly dispersed to various parts of the cave and surrounded the exit.
Li Jing looked around. The cave was filled with choking dust and the smell of blood, and broken stones were scattered all over the ground, as if it had experienced a small earthquake.
His brows were furrowed as he glanced at Chen Tianjun who was tied to the ground. The latter had a dazed look in his eyes and a weak breath, and it was obvious that he was no longer able to struggle.
Li Jing waved his hand, signaling the heavenly soldiers to carefully search every corner of the cave.
The heavenly soldiers immediately dispersed, and their silver armor flashed a cold light in the dim cave.
They held spears and walked steadily, carefully checking every stone wall and knocking on every inch of the ground.
"General, there is a mechanism here!"
A heavenly soldier suddenly shouted, pointing at a slightly raised stone.
Li Jing walked over quickly and pressed lightly with his finger. With a low "click" sound, the stone wall slowly cracked, revealing a dark passage.
At the same time, Sun Wukong, Yang Jian and Nezha escorted Chen Tianjun out of the cave.
Chen Tianjun was tied up, his face was pale, and there was still a hint of unwillingness in his eyes.
His steps were unsteady, and he had obviously exhausted all his strength.
