Chapter 401: The Gemstone Robbery Battle
Liu Yu, Zhu Bajie, Xiao Qing, and Xiao Tian faced off against the dark figure in the open space, the atmosphere tense to the extreme. Silence reigned all around, broken only by the slightly rapid breathing of the group, echoing in the air like drumbeats on a battlefield, foreshadowing the fierce battle about to erupt. The gentle moonlight bathed the empty space, but it could not dispel the heavy, almost solidified atmosphere; instead, it made the scene appear even more eerie and sinister.
"Hmph, you won't get this gem today!" the shadowy figure said viciously, his voice hoarse and deep, as if from the depths of hell, carrying an undeniable resolve. He gripped the gem tightly in both hands, its light flickering in his grasp, mirroring his unfathomable thoughts. The gem's brilliance shone and faded in the moonlight, as if telling of the mysterious power it contained.
Liu Yu frowned, his gaze sharp as he stared intently at the gem in the shadowy figure's hand, as if trying to snatch it with his eyes. A resolute flame burned in his gaze—a testament to his unwavering commitment to justice and his burning desire for his goal. "Enough talk, hand it over!" he said, gripping his sword tightly, his knuckles white from the force, his muscles taut, preparing for another fierce attack. His clothes fluttered slightly in the night wind, his figure resolute and unwavering, like an unshakeable mountain, standing firm against wind and rain.
Pigsy panted heavily, his fat body rising and falling with each breath like undulating mountains. His chest heaved violently, each breath heavy with tension. "I, Old Pig, am not afraid of you, you cowardly coward!" He glared, his eyes burning with fury, the fat on his face trembling slightly with excitement. He gripped his nine-toothed rake tightly, as if it were his last weapon to defend his dignity. The rake reflected a cold gleam in the moonlight, its sharp teeth seeming to yearn for a clash with its enemy.
Xiaoqing stood ready, her beautiful face now solemn, like a female general about to go to battle. Her eyes revealed determination and courage, the composure gained from countless battles. The bell in her hand gleamed in the moonlight, poised to unleash a powerful sonic attack at any moment. She pursed her lips slightly, her eyes showing a resolute determination, as if telling everyone that she would never back down.
Just then, the dark figure suddenly flashed, transforming into a lightning-fast shadow that rushed towards Liu Yu. Its speed was so great that it was almost impossible to see clearly, and it arrived in front of Liu Yu in an instant. The shadow's movements were like a ghost, vanishing from its original spot in a flash, and appearing before Liu Yu the next second, carrying a chilling wind and boundless killing intent.
Liu Yu reacted swiftly, swinging his sword to parry. His sword clashed with the shadowy figure's attack, producing a crisp sound and sending sparks flying like dazzling fireworks in the night sky. In that instant, light illuminated Liu Yu's resolute face; his eyes held no fear, only an unwavering determination to win.
"Prajnaparamita! Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon!" At this critical moment, a familiar shout rang out, its sound like a resounding bell, shaking the very soul. Fahai descended from the sky, his robes billowing in the wind, like an immortal descending to earth, exuding boundless majesty and holiness. His figure appeared tall and imposing in the moonlight, like a war god descended from heaven. The staff in his hand emitted a dazzling golden light, instantly illuminating the darkness, like a beacon of hope in the darkness.
The shadowy figure was startled by this sudden turn of events, and his previously fierce attack faltered. His silhouette appeared hesitant and terrified in the light, his previously confident demeanor crumbling instantly, as if he had encountered his nemesis. His body trembled slightly, clearly showing immense fear at the appearance of Fahai.
"Fahai, what brings you here?" Liu Yu asked with delight, a glimmer of hope flashing in his eyes, a light that shone brightly in the tense atmosphere. His voice was filled with surprise and anticipation, as if he had seen the dawn in the darkness.
"Hmph, if I didn't come, could you handle this monster?" Fahai rolled his eyes at Liu Yu, a hint of disdain on his face, but deep concern in his eyes. His gaze swept over the crowd, as if confirming their safety. Fahai's eyes were firm and powerful, as if they could see through everything.
Seeing this, the shadowy figure knew the situation was extremely unfavorable and turned to flee. His figure moved like a ghost, attempting to vanish into the night as if he had never been there. His movements were swift and decisive; he chose to escape without hesitation.
"Where do you think you're going!" Little Tian barked, its clear and loud voice breaking the brief silence. It swiftly pulled a magical artifact from its underwear—a golden sphere that automatically tracked the shadow. The sphere shimmered with dazzling golden light, chasing the dark figure like a shooting star, its speed so fast it was almost blinding. Little Tian's movements were agile and practiced, as if everything was under its control.
The dark figure dodged left and right, his movements erratic and unpredictable, yet he could never shake off the relentless pursuit of the golden sphere. Bathed in the sphere's light, he appeared disheveled and pathetic, his former imposing presence completely gone. The dark figure's movements grew increasingly frantic, and his breathing became more and more rapid.
Taking advantage of the moment, Fahai swung his staff, unleashing a beam of Buddhist light towards the shadowy figure. The light was dazzling, like a golden torrent, surging and unstoppable. The shadowy figure screamed in agony, its voice shrill and desperate, the gem falling from its hand. The light, as radiant as the sun, instantly enveloped the figure.
Pigsy lunged forward, trying to catch the gem, but slipped and fell flat on his face, looking utterly comical. "Oh dear, what bad luck for me!" Pigsy complained as he got up, his face covered in dust, making his already fat face look even more pathetic, which was quite amusing. His clumsy and ridiculous movements were strangely endearing.
Liu Yu hurriedly went to pick up the gems, but was blocked by the dark figure again. The dark figure was extremely fast, like a gust of wind, and was in front of Liu Yu in an instant. His figure was as swift as a ghost, carrying a resolute aura.
"Watch this!" Fahai shouted again, "Prajnaparamita! Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon!" The Buddha's light shone brightly once more, like a blazing sun, its radiance illuminating the entire open space. The shadowy figure was repelled, trembling within the Buddha's light as if enduring immense pain. The power of the Buddha's light was incomparably strong, making it impossible for the shadowy figure to resist.
Liu Yu finally found the gem. Holding it in his hand, he felt a mysterious power surge through him. That power, like a warm current, instantly spread throughout his body, invigorating him. The gem's power flowed within him, as if infusing him with boundless vitality.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and smiles of satisfaction appeared on their faces, smiles that looked especially radiant in the moonlight.
"Haha, the gems are ours now!" Pigsy danced with joy, his fat body swaying comically, as if all the tension and fatigue from before had vanished. His laughter echoed in the open space, filled with joy and relaxation.
However, before they could rejoice for long, a new group of dark figures suddenly appeared around them. These figures were even more sinister and terrifying than the previous ones, exuding an evil aura that sent chills down their spines. Their silhouettes flickered in and out of existence in the moonlight, like demons crawling out of hell. That evil aura permeated the air, creating a sense of oppression.
"How come there's still more?" Xiaoqing said in surprise, her voice tinged with fear, a fear that filled the air and made everyone's heart tighten. Xiaoqing's voice trembled slightly, revealing her inner unease.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Fahai straightened his chest and stood before the crowd, his staff held horizontally in front of him, like an insurmountable mountain, giving people an unparalleled sense of security. Fahai's figure was tall and majestic, his eyes firm and resolute.
Without a word, the newly appeared shadowy figures launched an attack on them. Their movements were swift and fierce, like a black storm sweeping in, carrying an aura of annihilation. Their attacks came like a torrential downpour, leaving them overwhelmed.
Fahai unleashed powerful Buddhist magic, enveloping everyone in a radiant light that repelled the attacks of the shadowy figures. The light formed a golden shield, protecting them within its sturdiness and shimmering with a sacred glow. The powerful yet warm light brought a sense of peace to the group.
"Oh dear, this is going to be tough!" Pigsy muttered as he swung his nine-toothed rake. His movements were somewhat clumsy, but each strike was full of power, reflecting his determination and courage. Sweat beaded on Pigsy's face, but he continued to fight bravely.
Xiao Tian kept pulling out various magical artifacts from his underwear and throwing them at the shadowy figure. The artifacts shimmered with strange light in the air; some exploded with deafening sounds, while others released powerful energy, repelling the shadowy figure. Xiao Tian's movements were swift and agile, his eyes filled with determination.
Liu Yu and Xiao Qing worked together to counterattack the shadowy figures. Liu Yu's sword gleamed coldly, each attack precisely targeting the shadowy figures' vital points. His movements were swift and decisive, like those of a battle-hardened warrior. Xiao Qing's sonic attacks with her bells intensified, creating visible ripples in the air that relentlessly assaulted the shadowy figures, slowing their movements.
During the battle, Pigsy accidentally stepped on a rock and fell flat on his back. "What bad luck I've had!" His appearance drew laughter from everyone, easing the tense atmosphere slightly and adding a touch of lightness to the fierce battle. Pigsy's complaint was tinged with helplessness, but he quickly got up and continued fighting.
Seeing this, Fahai shouted, "What time is it? Stop laughing!" His voice was serious and anxious, filled with concern for everyone's safety. Fahai's face was solemn, his eyes focused on the battle.
Just as everyone was locked in a fierce battle, Liu Yu suddenly noticed that the attacks of these shadowy figures seemed to follow a pattern. He carefully observed the movements of the shadowy figures, not missing a single detail, and gradually an idea formed in his mind.
"Everyone, pay attention, follow my rhythm!" Liu Yu shouted. His voice was firm and clear, full of confidence and determination, making everyone obey his command without their even realizing it. Liu Yu's eyes revealed a kind of wisdom and calmness.
Following Liu Yu's commands, the group gradually turned the tide. Their coordination became increasingly seamless, and their attacks more and more effective, displaying immense power like a tightly integrated team. Their movements were perfectly synchronized, as if they were a single entity.
A dark shadow rushed towards the gem amidst the chaos, but Xiao Tian reacted swiftly, biting down on the shadow's clothing. "Woof woof woof!" Xiao Tian held on tightly, its eyes filled with unwavering determination, as if telling the shadow, "Don't even think about taking the gem." Xiao Tian's teeth clenched firmly on the shadow's clothing, refusing to let go.
The dark figure struggled free, and Xiao Tian was thrown off. "Xiao Tian!" Liu Yu called out worriedly, his heart tightening as his eyes followed Xiao Tian's retreating figure. Liu Yu's voice was filled with concern and worry.
Fortunately, Xiao Tian was unharmed and quickly ran back to continue the battle. Its movements remained agile, its fighting spirit high, as if the previous setback had had no effect on it. Xiao Tian's eyes remained filled with determination and courage.
After a fierce battle, the shadowy figures were finally driven back. Their forms gradually disappeared under the light of the Buddha's light, leaving behind a burnt smell—the remnants of the battle. Where the shadowy figures vanished, darkness remained, as if they had never existed.
"Oh dear, I'm exhausted!" Pigsy plopped down on the ground, panting heavily. His face was covered in sweat, and his clothes were soaked through, as if he had just been pulled out of the water. Pigsy's chest heaved violently, showing his exhaustion.
"Don't let your guard down; we don't know if there are other dangers," Fahai warned, his eyes still scanning the surroundings warily, not daring to relax for a moment. Fahai's gaze was serious and cautious, his staff still tightly gripped in his hand.
