Chapter 1687: Chapter 831: It’s Finally Over!
Qing Shuang nodded and took out a piece of talisman paper from her waist, starting to silently chant the curse.
The talisman paper burned in her hand, transforming into a golden light that shot straight towards the blood-colored orb.
However, the blood-colored orb seemed to have its own consciousness, as it slightly wavered, blocking the golden light back.
Qing Shuang’s attack did not cause any harm to the blood-colored orb.
Luo Chen saw this and knew that stronger measures had to be taken.
He took out an ancient bronze seal from his bosom, which was one of his trump cards, capable of suppressing evil forces.
He brought it specifically to target the Blood Ghost Sect.
“Suppress!” Luo Chen shouted loudly, and the seal flew out of his hand, transforming into a stream of light, directly striking the blood-colored orb.
The blood-colored orb sensed the threat and started to tremble violently.
It unleashed a powerful force, trying to resist the seal’s attack.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang held their breath, nervously watching the scene.
The seal and the blood-colored orb collided in the air, bursting into dazzling light.
For a moment, the temple was filled with blinding light, making it impossible to look directly.
When the light gradually faded, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang realized that the blood orb not only showed no sign of dissipating.
On the contrary, the surrounding ghosts were stirred and frantically rushed towards Luo Chen’s direction.
Now, the situation seemed to become more complicated…
“What should we do?”
Facing the sudden crisis, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, although nervous, did not lose their composure.
They knew that the battle at this moment concerned not only their own lives but also the safety of the entire Zhen Nan Mansion.
“Qing Shuang, we must hold on!” Luo Chen shouted, his voice filled with determination.
Qing Shuang tightly gripped the sword hilt, a look of resolve flashing in her eyes, “I will fight alongside you until the last moment.”
The two stood back to back, ready to face the onslaught of the ghosts.
The surrounding ghosts surged like a tidal wave, with hideous expressions on their faces, wailing harshly from their mouths.
The Magic Bead in Luo Chen’s hand emitted light again, forming a defensive barrier that temporarily held off the ghosts’ attacks.
Qing Shuang swung her longsword, the sword light carving sharp arcs in the dark, repelling the approaching ghosts one by one.
The battle continued for a moment, but the number of ghosts seemed endless, surging wave after wave.
Although Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were extraordinarily skilled, the prolonged battle began to wear them down.
“This is no solution, we must find the Blood Sacrificial Altar’s weakness.” Luo Chen said, panting.
Qing Shuang nodded, she knew Luo Chen was right.
They had to find a way to break through quickly, or they would be overwhelmed by the ghosts sooner or later.
Just then, Luo Chen noticed something seemingly moving slowly in the Blood Pool.
He looked closely and found it was a human figure, struggling to crawl out of the Blood Pool.
“Qing Shuang, look!” Luo Chen pointed to the figure in the Blood Pool.
Qing Shuang followed Luo Chen’s gaze, a trace of surprise flashing in her eyes, “Who is that?”
The two temporarily halted their battle and watched the figure in the Blood Pool warily.
The figure finally crawled out of the Blood Pool, covered in blood and filth, but it was faintly recognizable as a woman.
The woman raised her head, her eyes filled with pain and anger.
She struggled to stand up, looking at Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, her voice hoarse as she spoke, “Are you here to destroy the Blood Sacrificial Altar?”
Luo Chen nodded, “That’s right, we are here to stop the Blood Ghost Sect.”
Hope flashed in the woman’s eyes, but quickly, this glimmer of hope was replaced by despair: “It’s impossible, you can’t do it, you don’t understand the strength of the Blood Ghost Sect, you don’t even know…”
Her words fell.
The woman’s eyes suddenly turned blood-red.
Her entire body erupted with a terrifying murderous aura.
It seemed her mind had already been completely controlled.
All her thoughts were about killing the two people in front of her.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged a glance, feeling the intense murderous intent emanating from the woman.
Luo Chen tightly gripped the Magic Bead, and Qing Shuang gripped the sword hilt as they prepared for the impending challenge.
“We won’t give up,” Luo Chen said firmly, “No matter how powerful the Blood Ghost Sect is, we will find a way to destroy this altar.”
The woman did not respond, only letting out a low growl, then she charged at Luo Chen like a red lightning bolt.
Luo Chen quickly sidestepped to avoid her, while the Magic Bead emitted a beam trying to bind the woman’s movements.
Qing Shuang seized the opportunity to swing her sword, the sword light like water, attempting to sever the connection between the woman and the Blood Sacrificial Altar.
However, the woman seemed to be controlled by some force, her movements extraordinarily agile, easily dodging Qing Shuang’s attack.
The battle became more intense, and despite Luo Chen and Qing Shuang’s best efforts, the woman seemed tireless, each attack filled with destructive power.
The temple echoed with the sound of metal clashing and the woman’s roars, the tension reaching the peak.
Just when Luo Chen seized the moment when the woman was unguarded, he suddenly struck her back with his sword.
The longsword slashed across the woman’s body, thick blood spurting from her back.
Just when Luo Chen thought it was over.
The cut on the back of the woman began to heal at an astonishing speed.
“This, this this…”
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, facing this sudden change, felt their hearts sink.
The woman’s wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, making them realize that the enemy before them was not an ordinary Blood Ghost Sect disciple, but a being strengthened by the power of the Blood Sacrificial Altar.
