From a loser to an immortal sage

Chapter 300 Xiao Yao Creates a Grand Scene: The Pinnacle of Glory

"Something terrible has happened! Senior Sister Xiao, Elder Xuanfeng's remaining followers...they..." The disciple trembled, his face ashen, and he could barely speak.

A chill ran from my feet to the top of my head, and I stood up abruptly. The atmosphere in the council chamber froze instantly.

"Explain yourself!" I shouted sharply, suppressing the unease surging within me.

"They...they have gathered a large force and are heading towards the main peak!" The disciple finally uttered a complete sentence, and my heart sank instantly.

What was supposed to come finally came.

"Fairy Mingyue, go and immediately inform all the disciples to strengthen their defenses!" I made a decisive decision and turned to look at Fairy Mingyue.

She nodded without hesitation, turned around, and ran away.

"Senior Brother Lin, Junior Sister Chu, come with me to fight the enemy!" I drew the sword from my waist, its cold light gleaming and reflecting on my resolute face.

I had long anticipated that Elder Xuanfeng's remnants would not let this go.

I never expected them to be so bold as to directly attack the main peak.

"All disciples, heed my command! Form the formation!" My voice resounded throughout the mountain peak, carrying an unquestionable authority.

The disciples sprang into action, forming impregnable lines of defense.

The mountain wind howled, stirring up clouds of dust.

In the distance, a dark mass of figures was approaching us, their menacing aura palpable.

My eyes were sharp as I scanned every corner, not missing a single suspicious detail.

The air around seemed to freeze, and the tense atmosphere was suffocating.

"They're here!" Senior Brother Lin said in a deep voice. I gripped the sword in my hand tightly, my fingertips turning white.

The first to rush up were a group of disciples with lower cultivation levels. They brandished their weapons and charged at us menacingly.

I sneered, and with a flash, my sword flashed like a rainbow, instantly crushing them.

"A mere trick!" I scoffed, turning my gaze to the back.

There, several powerful auras were slowly approaching, clearly the confidants of Elder Xuanfeng.

"Xiao Yao, today is your death day!" A cold voice rang out, and a man in black stepped out from the crowd, his eyes flashing with hatred.

He held a long black sword in his hand, the blade radiating a chilling aura.

A slight smile played on my lips. "You?"

Before I finished speaking, I took the initiative and attacked. My sword flashed like lightning, aiming straight for the man in black's vital points.

The man in black clearly hadn't expected me to be so decisive, and caught off guard, he could only barely parry.

The battle intensified, leaving the surrounding environment in ruins; the once verdant mountains were now scarred and devastated.

I also have several wounds on my body, and my clothes are stained with blood.

"Xiao Yao, you're at your last gasp, why don't you surrender!" the man in black shouted again, his eyes gleaming with greed.

He knows I possess many treasures, and that he can obtain them by capturing me.

"Dream on!" I roared, and swung my sword again.

I know I can't fall. I have countless disciples behind me, and I must protect them!

Just then, an even more powerful aura came from afar, carrying a world-destroying pressure.

"Oh no!" I thought to myself, a sense of foreboding washing over me...

"Wen Chen..."

The sword blade sliced ​​across my arm, and the burning pain made me groan.

Damn!

These remnants are more troublesome than I imagined.

Blood dripped down his arm, staining the ground beneath his feet.

I glanced at Fairy Mingyue; her face was pale, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth, indicating that she was also injured.

Senior Brother Lin's condition wasn't much better; the wound on his left shoulder was so deep that the bone was visible, and blood stained half of his clothes.

"Xiao Yao, you're dead!" The man in black grinned maliciously, his eyes flashing with bloodlust.

The black longsword in his hand, carrying a sharp killing intent, slashed at me again.

I gritted my teeth and barely managed to swing my sword to defend myself, but I felt a powerful force that knocked me back several steps.

"Senior Sister!" Junior Sister Chu exclaimed, trying to rush over to help me, but was stopped by another man in black.

"Your opponent is me!" The man in black smiled coldly, his long sword pointing directly at Junior Sister Chu.

Although Junior Sister Chu's cultivation was not weak, she lacked practical combat experience and quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.

"Hahaha, Xiao Yao, look at your companions, they're all in dire straits, how can you still be so arrogant?" The man in black laughed wildly.

I was extremely anxious. Looking at my injured companion, my heart ached as if it were being stabbed.

No, I can't keep taking this beating!

I must find a way to turn things around!

I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.

I looked around and my gaze fell on the core of the Immortal Gate Formation.

A bold idea popped into my head.

"Everyone, move toward me!" I shouted, my voice filled with determination.

Although Fairy Mingyue, Senior Brother Lin, and Junior Sister Chu did not understand my intentions, they still approached me without hesitation.

"Trying to escape? Not so easy!" The man in black sneered, leading the others to surround and attack us.

A slight smile played on my lips. Just as they were about to get close to me, I suddenly activated my spiritual power and threw the spirit stones I had prepared into the array's core.

"Om-"

A deep hum resounded, and the entire Immortal Gate Formation was instantly activated.

Golden rays of light shot out from the center of the array, enveloping us.

"What's going on?" The man in black's expression changed drastically as he looked around in horror.

"This is... a grand formation of the immortal sect!" another man in black exclaimed.

I sneered, slowly raising my sword and pointing it at the black-clad man trapped in the formation. "Now, it's my turn." I turned to Fairy Mingyue. "Fairy, activate the Immortal-Trapping Formation!"

The moment the Immortal Trapping Formation was activated, a blinding golden light, almost tangible, enveloped all the men in black.

Their screams, like being scorched by flames, filled me with a sense of exhilaration.

The spiritual energy within the formation surged, constantly eroding their defenses. Their once arrogant demeanor now turned into terrified howls.

I could feel their spiritual power rapidly dissipating, like grains of sand being crushed by a millstone, powerless to resist.

"Ah—! No! This is impossible!" The black-clad man's roar was heart-wrenching and filled with despair, but it could not change their inevitable fate of destruction.

I gripped the sword tightly, my eyes cold, without the slightest hesitation.

Wherever the sword light went, it swept away the remaining resistance like autumn leaves in the wind.

Blood splattered everywhere, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, but at this moment, I felt no discomfort whatsoever.

Because I know this is for protection, for my sect, and for everyone who believes in me!

A moment later, the wailing gradually subsided, and the once noisy battlefield instantly became silent.

I looked around and made sure all the remaining members had been eliminated before my tense nerves relaxed a little.

"We won!" Fairy Mingyue's voice trembled slightly, but it was filled with the joy of surviving a calamity. A long-lost smile finally bloomed on her pale face.

Senior Brother Lin covered his wound and gave me a relieved smile. The light in his eyes was an affirmation and appreciation for me.

Junior Sister Chu also came over, her eyes filled with tears, and whispered, "Senior Sister, you're amazing!"

I looked at them, and my heart was filled with pride.

We went through life and death together, and we protected our immortal sect together.

Looking up, the mountains, scarred and battered by our destruction, appear exceptionally beautiful under the sunlight.

This represents new life, hope, and the glory we have earned through our own strength.

"Senior Sister Xiao Yao! We won!" Someone shouted first, and then cheers surged like a tide, one after another.

Surrounded by disciples, at this moment, I felt an unparalleled glory, a glory that belonged to me and to all of us!

Suddenly, a familiar, warm aura approached, like a gentle breeze, sweeping away all the weariness in my heart.

I slowly turned my head and saw Wen Chen standing not far away. He was dressed in white, his robes fluttering, and a gentle smile on his face.

I walked toward him, each step filled with indescribable joy.

Everything around him seemed to blur, leaving only his figure, getting closer and clearer.

"Yao'er..." He opened his arms and hugged me tightly.

His embrace was warm and reassuring; his familiar scent completely enveloped me.

I buried my head in his chest, feeling his strong heartbeat, and a happy smile unconsciously appeared on my lips.

The surrounding noise gradually faded into the distance, like background music, highlighting the silent love between us.

“You…” Wen Chen looked down at me, his eyes seeming to hold a thousand words, yet he hesitated to speak.

“Yao’er…” Wen Chen looked down at me, his eyes seeming to hold a thousand words, yet he hesitated to speak.

I looked up at him, my heart filled with endless tenderness.

At that moment, it was as if the whole world had stopped, and there were only the two of us, basking in the warm sunlight, feeling each other's heartbeats.

Just then, laughter and cheerful voices came from afar, pulling me back to reality from my gentle dream.

The disciples of the immortal sect gathered around, their faces beaming with joy and pride.

They surrounded us and congratulated me.

I smiled and responded to their blessings one by one, feeling incredibly warm inside.

"Senior Sister Xiao Yao, you are truly amazing! We are so proud of you!" a young disciple exclaimed excitedly, his eyes shining with admiration.

I patted him gently on the shoulder and smiled, "This is not just my achievement; it's the result of our collective efforts."

The surrounding disciples nodded in agreement, and the atmosphere became even more enthusiastic.

Fairy Mingyue stepped forward with a gentle smile on her face and handed me a cup of fine wine.

"Senior sister, this is a celebratory drink prepared by everyone to congratulate you on your triumphant return!" Her words were full of sincerity and gratitude.

I took the wine glass, my gaze sweeping over everyone present, and a surge of emotion welled up inside me.

"Thank you everyone! Today, we not only defeated the enemy, but also united as one to protect our common home. This glass is a toast to everyone, and to our bright future!" I raised my glass high, my voice filled with determination and hope.

The surrounding disciples raised their cups in response, and cheers rose and fell, filling the entire immortal sect.

Just then, a mysterious voice suddenly pierced the sky, announcing, "Senior Sister Xiao Yao, there is an urgent message. Please come to the council hall immediately!" I was startled, and a sense of foreboding welled up in my heart.

Wen Chen held my hand and whispered, "Yao'er, no matter what happens, I will be by your side."

I nodded, feeling reluctant but even more determined.

I turned to the crowd and said, "Everyone, continue celebrating. I'll be back in a bit." With that, I followed the messenger and hurried toward the council hall.

Inside the council chamber, a mysterious scroll lay quietly on the table.

I carefully unrolled the scroll, and saw the words: "Xiao Yao, hurry to the Netherworld Immortal Realm to rescue the trapped fairy. Do not delay."

A complex mix of emotions welled up inside me, a mixture of nervousness and anticipation for the unknown.

This is not only a test of my abilities, but also a test of the relationship between Wen Chen and me.

But I know that no matter how many difficulties lie ahead, I cannot back down.

"Wen Chen..." I called softly, and he immediately appeared beside me, taking my hand. "Yao'er, I'll go with you. No matter how dangerous it is, I won't let you face it alone."

I smiled with emotion, a warm feeling welling up inside me.

We smiled at each other and resolutely embarked on our unknown adventure.
