"Who are you? Evil soul masters from the Holy Spirit Cult?" Qian Renyue shielded the little girls behind her, solemnly questioning the other party.
"Give it back! Give it back!" Several black-robed figures simultaneously let out hoarse, grating voices, causing Qian Renyue to furrow her brows tightly for a moment.
"Give it back? Heh, who the hell do you think you are?" Qian Renyue mocked disdainfully.
The black-robed figures seemed to have been enraged by Qian Renyue's words, dangerous red light glowing in their eyes, while the nails on their hands were thin and long, and appeared extremely hard as well. Roaring, they charged toward Qian Renyue.
Qian Renyue switched the Dragon's Roar Divine Sword to light sword mode, swiftly engaging several black-robed figures in combat.
During the fight, Qian Renyue was astonished to discover that their bodies were truly strange. The parts used as weapons were as hard as steel, and when they collided with the Dragon's Roar Divine Sword, they could even produce sparks. Skin sliced open by sword energy would heal instantly. Although their faces were pale, their eyes and lips were abnormally bright red.
"Could they really be vampires? They're actually not much different from the low-level vampires in the movies I watched in my previous life. Could they also be puppets controlled by someone? Or failed products of the Holy Spirit Cult?" Countless thoughts raced through Qian Renyue's mind, but the attacks from her hands did not weaken in the slightest.
When Qian Renyue once again slashed open a black-robed figure's neck, the other party's wound returned to normal within a few breaths. Qian Renyue's eyes lit up as she delightedly discovered that the speed at which their wounds recovered was gradually slowing down.
After discovering this, Qian Renyue understood that she could not drag this out any longer. Using Thunderclap, she broke free from the black-robed figures' encirclement. Looking at the group of monster-like beings before her, Qian Renyue said curiously:"I wonder if you can still heal if I cut your necks clean off."
Qian Renyue switched the Dragon's Roar Divine Sword to intermediate mode:"Second Soul Skill, Waning Moon."
A waning-moon-shaped sword energy swept toward the black-robed figures. Seeing this, the black-robed figures all defended themselves, only to see light envelop them, gathering the scattered figures together.
"Third Soul Skill, Shatter the Void." Qian Renyue unleashed a charged strike, a thunderous attack smashing toward the group.
The three black-robed figures at the very front were directly cleaved in half, while the remaining figures were also left with sword wounds so deep that bone could be seen.
Retracting her longsword, Qian Renyue looked over curiously, wanting to see what else those black-robed figures could do. The three black-robed figures that had been cut in half turned into black-red smoke and dissipated. As for the remaining severely wounded figures, the wounds on the fronts of their bodies began to heal slowly.
"Still trying to heal?" Qian Renyue snorted coldly. She withdrew the Dragon's Roar Divine Sword martial soul and released the Angel martial soul.
"Fifth Soul Skill:Holy Cross Formation" The Holy Cross Formation was originally a large-scale healing formation, but the sacred fire within the formation was the nemesis of all evil entities, and for beings like the black-robed figures, there was nothing better than using sacred fire against them.
Sure enough, the instant they came into contact with the sacred fire, the black-robed figures let out piercing screams, and what shocked Qian Renyue was that she had originally only wanted to slow the healing of their wounds, yet the sacred fire gradually burned them to nothing, ultimately turning them into black-red smoke that dissipated between heaven and earth.
"Has the sacred fire of my fifth soul skill become this powerful now?" Qian Renyue murmured incredulously.
Just as Qian Renyue was preparing to return to the plaza to take care of the kidnapped children, a kind of black-red smoke spread through the surroundings. It was very similar to what appeared when the black-robed figures died.
Suddenly, countless black birds appeared in the sky, and many identical black birds also emerged from the smoke.
Countless black shapes circled above the plaza, circling around Qian Renyue.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Holy Cross Formation." Qian Renyue unleashed her fifth soul skill with all her strength, and the Holy Cross Formation became several times larger than before, the black birds touched by the sacred fire turning into black-red smoke and quickly dissipating, but new black birds would soon appear again.
"Roar!" A dragon's roar that resounded through the heavens rang out. The black birds let out piercing cries. In the end, they all turned into black-red smoke and dissipated between heaven and earth.
"Master, Di Tian. You're here!" Qian Renyue looked toward the two people not far away in the sky.
Seeing that Chen Xin and Di Tian did not look well, Qian Renyue looked behind her, only to see that all the unconscious girls in the plaza had disappeared.
Seeing this, Qian Renyue hurriedly descended into the plaza, looking everywhere, even releasing her divine sense to search for the little girl who had a connection with her, but found nothing, as though those little girls had vanished into thin air.
"How could this happen." Qian Renyue suddenly collapsed weakly onto the ground.
"Yueyue, pull yourself together. Since you made a promise in place of the Angel God to protect her, how can you give up so easily. You once left a spiritual power ear mark on her. Calm down and sense carefully." Chen Xin pulled Qian Renyue up from the ground in one motion and said solemnly.
After hearing Chen Xin's words, Qian Renyue pulled herself together and nodded seriously.
The nine-pointed star on her forehead lit up, her spiritual power enveloping the entire Tianshui Town as she sensed and searched bit by bit for traces of that little girl.
After a long while, Qian Renyue opened her eyes, shook her head with an ugly expression, and said to Chen Xin:"Master, I still can't sense her. Throughout the entire town, I can't sense even the slightest trace of her presence."
"Could she have already left the town?" Chen Xin thought for a moment and asked.
"Left?" Hearing Chen Xin say this, Qian Renyue pondered for a moment,"It's not impossible, since this place isn't a domain, but a formation, then suddenly disappearing and leaving the town would make sense. Presumably, this is also why the black-robed figures gathered all the children in the center of this plaza. Could there be a way to leave the town from this plaza."
"It's possible. Perhaps, the key to breaking the formation is right here." Chen Xin said in agreement.
"Di Tian, do you know anything about formations?" Qian Renyue asked.
"No." Di Tian shook his head.
"Let's split up, Yueyue, you and Di Tian look for a way to activate the formation. I'll see if I can find a way to destroy the formation." Chen Xin said to Qian Renyue and Di Tian.
Seeing the two nod, Chen Xin controlled his Seven Kill Sword and carefully looked around.
"Di Tian, when the sky was filled with black birds and black-red smoke just now, did you notice anything?" Qian Renyue asked.
"Whatever it is, it's here. Let's sense carefully. There will always be clues left behind." After saying this, Di Tian released his spiritual power and began examining the area.
Seeing this, Qian Renyue said no more, sat down cross-legged, and began releasing her spiritual power and divine sense to investigate the plaza.
Very soon, the two discovered a crystal flashing with dazzling red light at the center beneath the plaza.
After Qian Renyue and Di Tian opened their eyes, they exchanged a glance and nodded.
The two attacked simultaneously, launching attacks toward a certain spot in the center of the plaza. Very soon, they saw the gemstone flickering with an eerie red light.
