Chapter 583: Enemies Everywhere

"It's fine, I understand."

Mo Di looked at him: "I can protect you during your cultivation."

Su Liyan nodded, "You're right, Lu Yuan."

"Although we're a team, each person still needs to develop their own abilities."

"Studying this Heart Scripture together can improve our cultivation."

She raised the Ice Crystal Long Whip in her hand, "It will also make my ice arts even stronger."

Zi Xi'er also said in agreement, "I agree to study this Heart Scripture together with everyone."

"After all, finding a true friend in the world of cultivation is not easy."

"Mutual understanding, support, and growing together are what matter most."

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, took out that precious Eternal Heart Scripture, divided it into three parts, and handed them to Su Liyan and Zi Xi'er respectively.

The three of them sat together, opened the Heart Scripture and began to study it.

The ancient formulae danced before their eyes, seeming to contain endless wisdom and the Way of Heaven and Earth.

Su Liyan closed her eyes tightly, her whole body enveloped in a layer of pale blue light.

She focused on conjuring her ice arts, hoping to grasp a higher realm from the Heart Scripture.

Zi Xi'er quietly read the fine text on the Heart Scripture.

She channeled her spiritual power to the extreme, summoning the Ice Jade Frost Slice Treasure to empower herself.

She hoped to find from the Heart Scripture a better understanding and guidance for her people's cultivation methods.

And Lu Yuan also closed his eyes, his whole body emanating a surging, powerful energy fluctuation.

As a disciple of the Supreme Dao Ancestor, he felt the importance of this Heart Scripture being imparted to the three of them.

He hoped to use this Heart Scripture to unravel more mysteries of the immortal arts and increase his cultivation.

The three of them were immersed in cultivation, unaware of anything happening outside.

However, just as they were fully focused, a sudden urgent alarm sounded from outside Cloudheaven Valley.

Lu Yuan opened his eyes, keenly sensing the abnormality.

He immediately stood up, and Su Liyan and Zi Xi'er followed, nervously looking toward the cave entrance.

"What's happening?!" Su Liyan couldn't help but ask.

Lu Yuan stared ahead, "Those who come bear ill will; enemies are approaching Cloudheaven Valley!"

"We need to go out and see what's happening!"

Everyone immediately sprang into action, rushing out of the cave in a panic.

Outside the cave was a scene of fiery chaos. Black-clad masked members of the Shadow Sect wreaked havoc in Cloudheaven Valley, wielding flame-long swords and slashing in all directions.

Lu Yuan gripped the Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword tightly, his eyes cold and resolute.

He took a deep breath, decided on an active assault strategy: "Su Liyan, Zi Xi'er, guard the Eternal Heart Scripture well; let me and Mo Di deal with these people."

Su Liyan and Zi Xi'er nodded in response and immediately began to deploy defensive measures.

Su Liyan's Ice Crystal Long Whip whirled rapidly, forming a thick ice wall around the Eternal Heart Scripture.

Meanwhile, Zi Xi'er activated the Ice Jade Frost Slice Treasure, letting drifting cold snow cover the entire protective circle.

After everyone had clear divisions of labor, Lu Yuan confidently marched toward the Shadow Sect's forces.

He steadied his breath, focused his spirit, preparing for the impending battle.

The black-clad masked Shadow Sect members noticed Lu Yuan's appearance; one of them jeered, "Haha, it's you, Lu Yuan?"

"Do you think you can defeat us just with your profound immortal arts?"

"Ridiculous!"

Lu Yuan gave him a contemptuous glance: "You think I'm a mortal?"

"Don't underestimate us, Heavenly Gang Big Dipper Formation!"

Saying this, he manipulated his power, laying out a Five Elements Escape Technique formation around himself.

The Thunder Fire Sword flashed with dazzling light in his hand, and he turned into a bolt of electricity charging at the enemies.

At the same time, Mo Di, Su Liyan, and Zi Xi'er quickly launched attack support.

The battle began.

The grating clash of weapons echoed through Cloudheaven Valley, the aftershocks scattering onto nearby trees.

Lu Yuan dodged the flame-long swords slashing at him, tightly focusing on one Shadow Sect member.

He mercilessly swung the Thunder Fire Sword, drawing a beautiful arc in the air.

"Behold my Mountain-Splitting, Earth-Splitting Sword!"

Lu Yuan gave a low shout; thunder and lightning power surged from the sword's tip, slashing toward the enemy.

The Shadow Sect member was shaken by his attack and retreated several steps.

They ceased their mockery, instead showing a hint of sternness, realizing Lu Yuan's power was not to be underestimated.

The fierce battle continued for a while; Lu Yuan, Mo Di, Su Liyan, and Zi Xi'er cooperated seamlessly, gradually pushing the Shadow Sect's forces to the valley mouth.

"Give up, you simply cannot defeat us!"

The black-clad masked Shadow Sect members shouted mockery.

Lu Yuan gave a cold snort: "You want to steal the Eternal Heart Scripture?"

"No way!"

At his command, the Heavenly Gang Big Dipper Formation unleashed great power.

The Thunder Fire Sword turned into a bolt of lightning, drawing a net of electric light across the sky, enveloping the Shadow Sect completely.

"Zi Xi'er! Su Liyan!"

"Great opportunity!" Lu Yuan shouted, directing his companions to attack.

Su Liyan and Zi Xi'er saw the opportunity arise and, working together, launched a powerful attack.

Cold ice and snow intertwined to form a massive vortex, freezing the entire valley mouth. Lu Yuan nimbly dodged the enemies' attacks, his sword light swiftly slicing through the air and defeating each member of the Shadow Sect.

The lightning power released from the Thunderfire Sword threaded through the enemies, instantly crushing them like lightning.

Every time he swung his sword, Lu Yuan could feel power surging within his body.

Su Liyan sensed Lu Yuan's aura and decided to display her strong supportive abilities.

She employed her newly mastered Frost Snow Storm immortal technique, creating an extremely cold environment within Cloudheaven Valley.

The cold air condensed into snow and ice, spreading across the battlefield above.

The enemies were trapped in a storm formed like a massive vortex, their movements becoming slow and difficult.

Mo Di transformed into a dragon form, launching a thunderous assault in the sky.

He flapped his huge dragon wings, tracing a beam of light through the clouds that surged toward the enemy with astonishing power.

Dragon breath spewed out, turning into scorching flames that encircled the Shadow Sect members.

Everyone cooperated tacitly in battle, conducting command and communication concisely and efficiently.

"Su Liyan, continue to suppress their movements!"

"Mo Di, cut off their retreat!"

Zi Xi'er never left Lu Yuan's side, closely watching the battlefield.

She carefully and prudently arranged the deployment, providing all-around support for the battle.

Lu Yuan walked toward that Shadow Sect member, filled with a sense of responsibility.

He stared into the opponent's eyes, disdainful and cold: "Do you think my power is insufficient?"

"I have mastered the Heavenly Gang Big Dipper Formation."

As his words fell, the Thunderfire Sword burst forth from his hand, tearing through the air.

A sword flash struck the opponent's chest like lightning, sending him flying back.

The black-clad, masked members of the Shadow Sect were swiftly crushed by Lu Yuan and his companions' powerful attack. (End of chapter)
