I swept the Phoenix with the Onmyoji Shikigami

hold head high……

A thunderous roar exploded in their ears, as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was splitting apart, shocking Xinghan and Qingji's minds to the point of almost shattering.

"It looks like there is a lion here!" Qingji looked around calmly, looking for the living creature that made the sound.

However, after looking around for a long time, I found nothing.

"A lion?!" Xinghan murmured doubtfully, "Not like it."

Qing Ji searched for a while, then said disappointedly, "But I see no signs or signs of wild animals around."

"Yes, it's incredible." Xinghan was also very confused, and a vague idea gradually rose in his heart.

The deep whistling sound echoed from the depths of the cave. It sounded like the roar of an ancient beast, which made people feel fearful.

The roof of the cave began to collapse violently, and boulders and rubble poured down like an uncontrolled torrent.

The smoke and flying sand intertwined into a chaos, making it almost impossible to breathe.

However, in the center of this chaos, Xinghan and Qingji were like two quiet stars, floating quietly in the air, as if isolated from the world.

Xinghan clenched his hands into fists, and the chill seemed to seep through the lines on his palms, piercing and deep.

He felt his heartbeat quickening, each beat as heavy as the beating of a drum.

Qingji, her hands were also cold. The coldness did not only come from her already low body temperature, but more because the tension and pressure condensed into frost in her heart.

Their palms were soaked with cold sweat, slippery and wet.

"My lord, your calm demeanor seems to indicate that everything is under control."

Qingji looked at Xinghan quietly, her eyes flashing with trust in this leader.

That trust was like the rising sun, although weak, it was enough to dispel the fear and anxiety in her heart.

Xinghan nodded slightly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

"I do have some plans in mind." Although his words were calm, every word revealed firmness and determination.

"Sir, please tell me what we should do?"

Qingji's voice was full of eagerness and desire. She hoped that Xinghan could bring her a ray of hope and lead her out of this predicament.

Xinghan slowly turned his head, his deep eyes looking directly at Qingji.

His eyes were full of determination and courage, as if an invisible force was supporting him.

"Qingji, these vines are binding us, but they are not impossible to break free of. We need to find an opportunity to break free of them in one fell swoop."

Qingji nodded vigorously, her eyes gleaming with determination. "Yes, Qingji understands."

Her voice was full of determination and confidence, as if she had seen the hope of victory.

"But before that, we need to confirm one thing."

Xinghan continued, his tone and attitude extremely cautious, as if everything had been carefully considered.

"We have to make sure that when we break free of these vines, we don't end up in greater danger. We need to find a safe place to stay and make sure our actions are foolproof."

"Sir, please give your orders." Qingji said respectfully, her eyes full of trust and respect for Xinghan.

Xinghan took a deep breath, and he seemed to see the vines that bound their feet turn into an invisible force.

He gently probed the vines, feeling their toughness and texture, and felt no effects of the poison.

"Qingji, we must remember that we are escaping from a trap, not falling into another bigger trap. We must proceed with caution and make sure that every step is steady and powerful."

Qingji nodded vigorously, with a determined light in her eyes.

She seemed to have seen the safe landing place, the new place they were about to arrive at.

Her heart was filled with hope and expectation, as if she had already felt the joy of victory.

As the two were talking, a huge rock fell from above and headed straight towards them.

"careful!"

Xinghan immediately protected Qingji behind him, ready to activate the star weapon to resist this life-threatening attack. He even used his own body to block another wave of collapse that appeared out of nowhere.

However, just as the rock was about to touch them, an invisible force suddenly emerged and burned the rock instantly.

Seeing this, Qingji's eyes flashed with surprise, and then she took a deep breath and gathered all her spiritual power. Her hands began to emit bursts of black mist, which quickly condensed into a pair of huge moon-shaped wings in the air.

The wings emitted a faint silver light, as if they could dispel the darkness and danger around them.

"Sir, you are willing to sacrifice yourself to save me?!" Qingji couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

While controlling the wings, Qingji did not forget to look at Xinghan with gratitude and tried her best to protect his safety.

"No!" Xinghan raised his eyebrows and replied calmly, "I'm just very confident in my abilities."

"Oh! Your Excellency is wise and brave!" Qingji's eyes flashed with joy.

"Haha, the ignorant are fearless. When you don't care about anything, you will be fearless." Xinghan looked ahead profoundly and said to Qingji, "The flying rocks keep falling without any rules. Please."

Qing Ji nodded and shouted, "My lord, stand firm!"

Then he controlled the pair of wings and flapped them violently.

The power of the wings exploded instantly, smashing the flying rocks in the air one by one.

Every swing was accompanied by a strong sound of breaking wind, as if it was going to tear the entire cave apart.

With Qingji's control, the flying rocks in the air became fewer and fewer, and the chaos in the cave gradually subsided.

Just when Xinghan thought the collapse process was over, a louder crash followed the disintegration of some object, and the falling objects became larger, and flying rocks continued to fall.

However, the vines under their feet still tightly entangled them, severely restricting their movements.

Xinghan took a deep breath and tried with all his strength to break free from the vines.

His muscles were tense and veins bulged, but the vines seemed to have life, binding them tightly.

At this moment, Qing Ji suddenly shouted: "My Lord! Quick, use your power to combine with my wings!"

Upon hearing this, Xinghan immediately injected his spiritual power into Qingji's wings.

The moon-shaped wings suddenly became brighter and released even more powerful power.

As they skillfully dodged the falling rocks and obstacles, the doubt in Xinghan's eyes grew deeper and deeper like the stirred lake water.

Xinghan stared at Qingji's flexible and powerful hands. Every movement was precise and swift, as if dancing in leaping flames.

When another flying stone whistled down with a sharp sound of breaking wind, Xinghan frowned and spoke with confusion:

"It's very strange! The disappearance of these rocks and obstacles doesn't seem to be due to you. Could it be..."
