Chapter 240 My Time Is Approaching
Every minute and every second seemed exceptionally long, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze, creating an invisible pressure.
However, Huan Yuechu and the man remained fully focused on the task at hand, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Through their persistent efforts, the crucial moment finally arrived—when the last rune gradually dissipated like smoke until it disappeared completely.
A faint but precious glimmer of hope spontaneously rose in their hearts.
However, this hope, like a tender sprout just breaking through the soil, was met with a merciless blow before it could grow strong.
A deafening roar suddenly erupted, like a thunderclap from a clear sky.
It instantly extinguished the nascent hope in people's hearts.
Everyone looked up in horror and saw that the light and shadow that had been trapped in the blue bead had successfully broken free of its restraints!
At this moment, it exuded a chilling aura, baring its fangs and claws as it angrily pounced on them.
Faced with such a formidable and ferocious enemy, the little spirit beast showed no fear whatsoever.
Instead, a determined glint flashed in its eyes, and with a swift movement, it took the initiative to meet the attack head-on.
In an instant, a thrilling and desperate battle erupted between the little spirit beast and the light and shadow.
Although the little spirit beast appears extremely small and delicate in comparison, its movements are as fast as lightning and exceptionally agile.
It nimbly weaved through the gaps in the light and shadow, skillfully dodging one deadly attack after another.
For a moment, the little spirit beast was able to contend with the powerful light and shadow without being at a disadvantage.
It was precisely because of the little spirit beast's brave and fearless performance that Huan Yuechu and the man gained a crucial respite, allowing them to seize the time to think of a countermeasure.
The two rushed to the mysterious and alluring source of purification as swiftly as the wind.
Upon closer inspection, the source of purification was actually a lotus flower as beautiful as a dream!
It blooms quietly, radiating an incomparably holy light, as if it could illuminate the entire dark world.
Huan Yuechu anxiously reached out her hands and carefully picked up the lotus flower that radiated a sacred glow.
The moment she held up the lotus flower, a dazzling light, like warm sunlight, shone directly on the man beside her.
As the light enveloped him, the evil thoughts that had been hidden deep within the man for so long began to dissipate little by little, as if they had encountered their natural enemy.
However, the light and shadow on the side became even more frantic after seeing this scene.
It seemed to sense that its possession had been stolen, so it charged towards Huan Yuechu and the man with a destructive force.
At that critical moment, the little spirit beast leaped into the air without hesitation.
With its seemingly insignificant little body, it did its best to resist the lightning-fast attack that could kill.
However, despite the little spirit beast's commendable courage, it was ultimately unable to withstand such a heavy blow due to its own limitations.
Having suffered such a severe injury, the little spirit beast was now barely breathing and hanging by a thread, like a candle flickering in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.
Looking at the wounded and dying little spirit beast before her, Huan Yue felt a pang of heartache, her tenderness overflowing.
However, she knew that this was not the time to be overwhelmed with grief; the most urgent task was to help the man break free from the shackles and control of those evil thoughts.
So she gritted her teeth and resolutely poured all the power contained in the pure white lotus flower in her hand into the man's body without reservation.
In an instant, an amazing miracle occurred!
Under the miraculous effect of the lotus's incomparably powerful force.
The man's previously confused and bewildered eyes gradually became clear and bright.
His mind finally returned to normal completely.
Then, the man slowly turned around, his eyes shining with a resolute and unyielding light like cold stars.
He took a deep breath, as if trying to inhale all the surrounding air into his chest.
Then suddenly, he unleashed an astonishing, overwhelming, and extremely powerful force.
This force, like a surging torrent, forcefully repelled the light and shadow with overwhelming force.
Even after successfully repelling the enemy, their tense nerves remained on edge.
Everyone knew that this was only a temporary victory, and that crisis was still lurking all around.
Taking advantage of the fact that the source of purification still retained a little bit of power, Huan Yuechu dared not delay for even a moment.
She focused her mind and quickly guided these precious powers, like a trickle of water, to converge on the little spirit beast's wounded body.
Every bit of power injected is like adding a little light to a candle in the darkness, bringing a glimmer of hope.
Under the continuous nourishment of the purifying power, the little spirit beast, which had been on the verge of death, finally began to respond.
Its eyes, which had been tightly closed for a long time, trembled slightly, and then it struggled to open a crack.
Those dim, lifeless eyes revealed a trace of longing and attachment to life.
However, despite feeling a slight improvement in her physical condition.
The little spirit beast knew perfectly well that the power of this purification source was nothing more than a drop in the ocean compared to its severe injuries.
It understood that its time was coming to an end, and no matter how hard it tried, it could not change the course of its fate.
The little spirit beast used its last bit of strength to let out an extremely weak sound.
"Go quickly, taking me with you will only be a burden. Don't let me delay your chance to escape."
Though the words were spoken softly, they struck Huan Yuechu and the man's hearts like a heavy hammer.
Huan Yuechu and the man exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with unbearable pain and helplessness.
But they also understood that time was of the essence and there was no room for excessive sorrow or hesitation.
The man gritted his teeth and, as if making a firm decision, gently took the little spirit beast into his arms, tightly embracing this companion who had accompanied them through countless storms.
At the same time, he gave Huan Yuechu a determined look.
Huan Yue immediately understood and quickly formed hand seals, fully activating the last remaining power within the Source of Purification.
As the hand seal was completed, a portal shimmering with soft light slowly appeared before our eyes.
The light shining through the door was like the dawn's first rays, giving people hope and warmth.
Just then, the shadowy figures that had been watching them intently realized their intentions and became enraged.
It roared and launched another fierce attack, with overwhelming dark energy surging in like a tidal wave.
