Chapter 714

"Li An, we must handle this carefully. This energy fluctuation is not simple." Guo Yao said in a deep voice, her eyes flashing with determination and courage.

Li An nodded, gripping Guo Yao's hand tightly, ready to face this final trial. They took a deep breath, condensing all their strength into their fists. Then, they suddenly punched hard at that energy fluctuation.

The night was like ink, stars hidden behind the heavy cloud layer, the entire secret realm where the Xukongzhi Sect stood seemed shrouded in a layer of invisible darkness. Li An stood at the center surrounded by mysterious runes, the air currents around him chaotic due to the fluctuation of the runes, the air filled with an oppressive atmosphere.

"Li An, be careful!" Guo Yao, standing aside, clenched her fists, her eyes full of anxiety and worry. Her voice sounded particularly crisp in the silent night sky, yet it seemed swallowed by this oppressive atmosphere, leaving only a faint echo.

Suddenly, those long-silent runes, as if awakened beasts, suddenly erupted with brilliant light, followed by waves of attacks merging fire, frost, storm, and various elemental forces surging toward Li An. Fire like snakes, frost like blades, storms roaring, every strike contained power enough to destroy mountains.

Li An moved slightly, his eyes like torches. Facing this overwhelming attack, he did not retreat but instead felt his battle spirit surge. He took a deep breath, his spiritual energy surging wildly within his body, his hands quickly forming seals, layers of protective shields forming around him, shimmering with a faint glow, trying to withstand this terrifying assault.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The rune attacks continuously hammered against the protective shields, each impact accompanied by deafening roars, the light on the shields flickering uncertainly, as if the Suishidou Society would collapse at any moment. Li An's face was pale, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes grew even more determined, showing no sign of retreat.

"Li An!" Guo Yao cried out anxiously, her hands clenched into fists, her fingernails digging deep into her palms, the pain keeping her alert, her gaze locked tightly on Li An, fearing to miss any detail.

"I'm fine!" Li An's voice sounded particularly determined amidst the roaring, he gritted his teeth, his spiritual energy surging wildly within his body, strengthening the protective shields once more. At the same time, he began searching for the Jideji Society.

Finally, during a gap in the rune attacks, Li An found the breakthrough. His figure surged upward, like an arrow leaving the string, instantly piercing through layers of attacks, charging straight toward the rune core. His hands traced mysterious paths in the air, accompanied by low chanting, a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation erupted from within his body, transforming into a dazzling light, striking the rune core directly.
