Chapter 400: The Gemstone Battle
The battle between Liu Yu, Zhu Bajie, and Xiao Qing against the giant monster guarding the gem reached its climax. In the night sky, the cold moon, like a silver scimitar, cast its chilling light, illuminating the chaotic battlefield. The surrounding trees trembled in the aftershocks of the battle, their branches rustling as if they were shuddering at this breathtaking duel.
Each of the monster's attacks carried earth-shattering power. Its massive, mountain-like body rumbled with every movement, as if the entire world was teetering on the brink of collapse under its fury. It swung its thick, pillar-like claws, sending gusts of wind through the air, as it lunged at Liu Yu and the others. Those claws, like giant iron hooks, gleamed coldly in the moonlight, each swing whipping up a gale that stung their faces. Liu Yu and the others, however, relied on their unwavering will and perfect teamwork to desperately hold on.
Just then, a dog wearing green shorts suddenly burst onto the scene. Agile as lightning in the night, it left blurry shadows in the moonlight. Its eyes were bright and full of life, radiating intelligence and courage, and it carried a twig it had picked up from who-knows-where in its mouth. It was none other than Xiao Tian, a descendant of Erlang Shen.
"Woof woof woof! Watch me lend you a hand!" Xiao Tian barked excitedly, his voice clear and loud, standing out in the tense atmosphere as if injecting new strength and hope into Liu Yu and the others.
Suddenly, it produced a small bell from somewhere, shook it gently, and the bell emitted a clear and melodious sound. The sound seemed to possess magical power, instantly spreading outwards and transforming into invisible ripples. These ripples quickly spread throughout the entire battlefield, momentarily slowing the monster's originally swift movements, as if it were tightly bound by invisible ropes.
Taking advantage of the moment, Liu Yu thrust his sword into the monster's leg. His movements were swift and decisive; his sword gleamed coldly in the moonlight, like a silver lightning bolt streaking across the night sky. However, the monster's hide was thick and tough, and the sharp sword only managed to leave a shallow wound on its surface. Black blood slowly flowed out, emitting a pungent, fishy smell.
Pigsy seized the opportunity, raising his heavy nine-toothed rake and slamming it down on the monster's back. "Here comes Old Pig!" he roared, his voice booming like thunder, echoing through the silent forest. His obese body suddenly unleashed astonishing power, the nine-toothed rake whistling as it struck the monster. The rake collided violently with the monster's hard armor, producing a dazzling burst of sparks, like brilliant fireworks blooming in the night sky.
Xiaoqing continued shaking the bell in her hand, trying to further disrupt the monster's actions. Her face was grave, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, which shimmered like pearls in the moonlight. But she persevered through gritted teeth, shaking the bell even more rapidly. The clear, rapid sound of the bell transformed into invisible sound waves, assaulting the monster's mind wave after wave.
Little Tian jumped and leaped around excitedly, barking loudly. Its tiny figure darted nimbly across the battlefield, occasionally pulling out all sorts of strange and wonderful magical artifacts from its magical underpants. One moment it was a sphere emitting a soft glow, which exploded instantly upon being thrown, releasing a powerful energy wave that shook the surrounding air, creating visible ripples; the next it was a small, exquisite fan, which, with a gentle wave, could create a strong whirlwind, cleverly deflecting the monster's ferocious attacks, causing the monster's attacks to miss repeatedly, leaving it only able to roar in anger.
Caught off guard by the sudden attacks, the monster roared in fury. Its massive head was raised high, spewing out a thick, black aura that seemed poised to devour the entire world. Its armor gleamed eerily in the moonlight, as if absorbing the surrounding dark energy, making its body even larger and more terrifying, radiating a chilling pressure.
Liu Yu was panting heavily, his clothes soaked with sweat, his hair plastered to his forehead, a few strands swaying slightly with his movements. But his eyes remained resolute, like a burning flame, showing no sign of retreat or fear. "Everyone, give it your all! We can't let this monster succeed!" he shouted, his voice filled with determination and courage, like a battle horn, inspiring everyone's fighting spirit. He charged at the monster again, his figure flashing like lightning in the moonlight, swift and sharp, carrying an indomitable momentum.
Pigsy shouted, "That's right, I, Old Pig, will not lose to this ugly monster!" His wounds, caused by the strenuous activity, began to bleed again, staining his clothes crimson and standing out starkly in the moonlight. But he didn't care; his face still radiated determination and fearlessness, and he raised his nine-toothed rake high once more, with the force of a thunderbolt.
Xiaoqing's face was slightly pale; the prolonged use of the bell's power was making her feel somewhat powerless. But she still gritted her teeth and persevered, shaking the bell in her hand even more rapidly, and the power of the sound waves became even stronger. The sound waves were like surging waves, crashing against the monster's mind one after another, making its movements even slower.
Xiao Tian barked and pulled a gourd from his underwear. Pointing the gourd's mouth at the monster, a powerful suction instantly emanated, attempting to pull the monster inside. The gourd shimmered with a strange light, as if containing boundless power; that light, like strands of silk, tightly bound the monster.
The monster struggled fiercely, its limbs kicking against the ground, stubbornly resisting the gourd's suction. Its claws dug deep into the earth, stirring up large chunks of soil and stones, which flew everywhere, tumbling down and creating deep craters in the ground.
Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, the monster suddenly opened its massive maw and spewed out a torrent of black flames. The flames, like a gigantic python, swept towards Liu Yu and the others, the intense heat making it almost impossible to breathe. The surrounding air instantly became scorching hot, as if it would burn everything to ashes. Wherever the flames touched, vegetation instantly turned to ash, the earth cracked, and a burnt smell filled the air.
"Watch out!" Liu Yu shouted a warning to his companion, then quickly dodged to the side. His body moved with the agility of a leopard, narrowly avoiding the flames that were about to engulf him. His clothes were lightly brushed by the edge of the flames, instantly igniting, but he quickly swatted it out and returned to the fight.
Pigsy reacted a little too slowly and was grazed by the edge of the flames, instantly scorching a patch of his fur. "Ouch, my fur!" he cried out in pain, his face contorted in agony. But he didn't back down; instead, he charged at the monster with even greater rage. His eyes turned bloodshot with fury, as if they were about to spit fire.
Xiaoqing quickly waved her bell, creating a blue shield that kept the flames at bay. The shield shimmered with blue light, clashing with the black flames and crackling as if in a fierce battle. Sparks flew, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
Taking advantage of the monster's fire-breathing pause, Xiao Tian threw out another magical artifact—a golden net. The net flew towards the monster and instantly covered its head. The golden net shimmered with dazzling light, as brilliant as the sun, tightly binding the monster's head.
The monster struggled furiously, trying to break free of the golden net. Its body writhed and roared, the sound deafening and piercing to the eardrums.
Seeing his opportunity, Liu Yu leaped forward, his sword aimed straight for the monster's eye. His movements were lightning fast; the sword whistled through the air, tracing a beautiful arc. The monster roared in pain, flailing its claws as it tried to attack Liu Yu.
Pigsy rushed over and used his nine-toothed rake to block the monster's claws. "Liu Yu, hurry!" he shouted, his voice filled with anxiety and concern. Veins bulged on his forehead, and sweat poured down his face.
At this critical moment, Liu Yu's sword finally pierced the monster's eye. Black blood gushed out like a black fountain, splashing onto the ground with a sizzling sound. The monster's body trembled violently, and its painful roars echoed throughout the forest, terrifying all who heard it. Birds were startled into flight, and wild beasts scattered in terror.
Seeing this, Xiaoqing increased the power of the bell's sound waves, causing the monster to fall into a brief state of dizziness. The sound waves, like surging waves, assaulted the monster's mind one after another, blurring its consciousness.
Not to be outdone, Xiao Tian pulled a seal-like magical artifact from his underwear and slammed it towards the monster's forehead. The moment the seal touched the monster's forehead, it emitted a dazzling light, and the monster's body began to sway precariously. The light illuminated the entire battlefield, blinding everyone.
Taking advantage of the moment, Liu Yu and his companions launched their final attack. The light from various weapons and magical artifacts intertwined, forming a dazzling and colorful light screen that struck the monster fiercely. Wherever the light touched, the monster's body began to disintegrate, turning into pieces of black fragments. Those fragments vanished into the air, as if they had never existed.
The monster finally succumbed and collapsed to the ground with a thud, raising a cloud of dust. The earth trembled as if a small earthquake had struck. The dust billowed, obscuring the sky and making it impossible to see anything.
"Haha, we did it!" Pigsy jumped up excitedly, his fat body drawing an arc in the air. His face beamed with the joy of victory, and his laughter echoed through the forest, startling a flock of birds.
However, before they could even rejoice, a group of dark figures suddenly appeared around them. These figures appeared silently like ghosts, instantly surrounding them. Their silhouettes flickered in the moonlight, exuding an eerie aura.
"Not good, there are more enemies!" Liu Yu said warily. His eyes sharpened instantly, he gripped his sword tightly, leaned forward slightly, and prepared for battle. His heart pounded, and his breathing became rapid, but there was no fear in his eyes.
These shadowy figures were indistinct, their faces obscured, but the aura emanating from them suggested they were anything but benevolent. That aura was cold and malevolent, sending chills down one's spine, as if it came from the deepest abyss.
Little Tian barked and pulled out its magic weapon from its underwear again, ready to face the new enemy. Its eyes were full of vigilance and courage, and its small body was taut.
The shadowy figures swiftly surrounded Liu Yu and his companions, and a new battle was about to begin. Their movements were rapid and unpredictable, like phantoms in the darkness, making them impossible to fathom.
Liu Yu gripped his sword tightly, his gaze coldly fixed on the shadowy figures. "Whoever you are, trying to stop us won't be so easy!" he shouted, his voice filled with unwavering resolve and fearlessness. His voice echoed through the night, carrying an air of resolute determination.
Pigsy roused himself, brandishing his nine-toothed rake with a whooshing sound. "Come on, I, Old Pig, am not afraid of you!" he roared, his voice filled with anger and courage. His eyes were wide open, fixed on the dark figure before him.
Xiaoqing bit her lip, the bell in her hand ringing rapidly, the sound waves transforming into beams of light that shot towards the shadowy figure. Her eyes were filled with determination and resolve, and beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.
Xiao Tian ran around, constantly throwing out various magical artifacts to provide support for everyone. The artifacts shimmered with strange light in the air, illuminating the dark corners.
The shadowy figures let out a low roar, then launched their attack. Their attacks were bizarre and swift, making them impossible to defend against. Some shadowy figures extended sharp, knife-like claws, accompanied by gusts of cold wind, and pounced on Liu Yu and the others; others spewed out black smoke with a pungent odor that made them dizzy; still others released dark energy waves, like black lightning, striking towards Liu Yu and the others.
Liu Yu dodged an attack from a dark figure by sidestepping, and thrust his sword backhand, but missed. The dark figure was extremely fast, disappearing into the darkness in an instant, causing Liu Yu's attack to miss.
Pigsy swung his rake with all his might, knocking away one of the dark figures, but more dark figures pounced on him. Several more wounds instantly appeared on his body, and blood stained his clothes, but he still did not back down.
Xiaoqing's sound waves seemed to have little effect on these shadowy figures, and sweat began to bead on her forehead. She gritted her teeth and increased the power of her sound waves, which created visible ripples in the air and spread towards the shadowy figures.
Just then, Xiao Tian threw out a bead emitting a green light. The bead exploded in mid-air, releasing a powerful force that temporarily repelled the surrounding shadows. The green light spread out like a shockwave, illuminating the entire battlefield. The shadows of the trees swayed erratically under the light.
"Let's go now!" Liu Yu shouted. His voice was decisive and urgent as he led everyone towards the gemstone.
They rushed towards the gem, but as they approached, they encountered a powerful barrier. The barrier flickered with purple light, coursing like electricity and crackling, making it impossible to get close.
"What should we do?" Pigsy said anxiously. He stared at the barrier, his face showing worry, and sweat dripped continuously from his forehead.
Liu Yu observed the barrier, trying to find a way to break it. His eyes were focused and calm, and his brain was working rapidly, thinking of a solution.
Xiao Tian ran over, a peculiar stone in his mouth. "Woof woof woof, try this!"
Liu Yu took the stone and placed it on the barrier. The stone emitted a burst of light, and cracks began to appear in the barrier. The light spread along the cracks, expanding like a spider web, and the cracks grew larger and larger.
They seized the opportunity to break through the barrier and finally arrived in front of the gem.
The gemstone emits a mysterious light that is captivating. The light is dreamlike and dazzling, seemingly containing boundless power and secrets. Countless stars seem to twinkle within the gemstone, making it utterly enchanting.
Liu Yu reached for the gem, but just then, a dark figure suddenly rushed out and snatched it away. The figure moved with lightning speed, leaving no time to react.
"Stop!" Liu Yu and the others immediately gave chase. Their figures darted through the forest at incredible speed. The leaves rustled in the wind stirred up by their movements, and moonlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow on them.
The dark shadow moved swiftly through the forest. It skillfully avoided trees and obstacles, like a black lightning bolt. Its figure appeared and disappeared among the trees, making it impossible to predict its movements.
Liu Yu and his companions pursued relentlessly, encountering various obstacles and traps along the way. In some places, the ground suddenly collapsed, forming bottomless pits; in others, tree branches suddenly lashed out like agile whips; and in still others, poisonous gas was emitted, a green gas filling the air and emitting a pungent odor.
Finally, in an open space, the dark figure stopped.
"Hand over the gems!" Liu Yu shouted. His voice, filled with anger and authority, echoed in the empty space.
The shadowy figure turned around, revealing a狰狞 (zhengning, meaning ferocious or hideous) face. "Want the gem? Not so easy!" Its voice was hoarse and malevolent, as if from the depths of hell. Its face was covered in twisted patterns, and its eyes gleamed with an eerie light.
The two sides engaged in fierce combat once again. Liu Yu and his companions fought desperately against the shadowy figure, every move filled with power and determination. Their figures clashed in the moonlight, the sounds of clashing weapons and shouts intertwining to create a powerful battle anthem.
Who will emerge victorious in this battle...?
