The Immortal Emperor Reborn: Accompanying My Child on the Extraordinary Journey

Chapter 336: Moment of Life and Death

Yun Che struggled to his feet, each step like treading on the edge of a knife. The excruciating pain left his face pale, but his eyes burned with an unyielding fire. He looked at Youyue, who was nimble amidst the enemy's siege, her sword flashing like a weave, each swing of her sword filled with determination and tragic grandeur. An unprecedented strength surged within Yun Che, a conviction deep within his heart—he could not fall, and certainly not let Youyue sacrifice herself for him.

"Youyue, hold on! I, Yun Che, will never abandon you and escape alone!" Yun Che roared, the remaining spiritual energy within him seemingly ignited by this will, erupting with astonishing power. His figure flashed, weaving through the enemies like a ghost, each punch and kick carrying the force of thunder.

The black-robed men clearly hadn't expected Yun Che to unleash such formidable power, and for a moment they were caught off guard. However, they quickly recovered. The leading black-robed man snorted coldly and waved his hands. A wave of black energy instantly spread out, enveloping Yun Che and You Yue once again.

“Hmph, just a last-ditch effort. Today, none of you can escape!” The black-robed figure spoke in an icy tone, as if he had already seen the end of Yun Che and You Yue.

Youyue's eyes grew even more resolute upon hearing the black-robed man's words. She knew they had no escape route at this point; only a desperate fight would offer a glimmer of hope. She took a deep breath, her spiritual energy surging within her. She tapped the ground with her sword tip, and her body suddenly accelerated, like a flash of lightning streaking through the night sky, aiming for the black-robed man's head.

Yun Che secretly cheered upon seeing this. He understood that You Yue's attack was the key to their reversal of the situation. So, he also rushed towards the other black-robed figure with all his might, trying to distract them.

However, the black-robed men were clearly no pushovers. They quickly adjusted their formation, neutralizing Yun Che and You Yue's attacks one by one. The leading black-robed man sneered repeatedly, as if everything was under his control.

"Hmph, is this all you can do? How disappointing." The black-robed man spoke with sarcasm, and the black energy fluctuations in his hands became stronger and stronger, as if they would explode at any time.

Yun Che and You Yue's expressions were solemn. They knew that the real battle had just begun. They had to be more cautious in order to win this life-and-death contest.

At this moment, Yun Che suddenly felt a strange power surge within him. He was surprised to discover that this power was something he had never felt before. It seemed to originate from the depths of his soul, carrying an ancient and mysterious aura.

"Is this... the power of the Golden Dragon Ball?" Yun Che secretly speculated in his heart. He tried to guide this power, and suddenly saw a golden light blooming from his body, instantly dispelling the surrounding darkness.

When Youyue saw this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She understood that Yun Che's power might be the key to their reversal of the situation. So, she attacked the black-robed man even harder, trying to buy Yun Che more time.

Yun Che felt the power of the Golden Dragon Ball coursing through his body, and his strength instantly surged. He roared, charging towards the black-robed figure like a tiger descending a mountain. His fists shone with golden light, and each punch seemed to be able to rip apart space.

The black-robed men were clearly thrown off balance by this sudden change. They hadn't expected Yun Che to unleash such formidable power. For a moment, they were flustered and retreated.

However, the black-robed leader did not flinch. He looked at Yun Che coldly, quickly forming seals with his hands. A black energy barrier instantly appeared in front of him, completely blocking Yun Che's fist.

“Hmph, a mere ant dares to show off in front of me?” The black-robed man said in an icy tone, as if he had seen through Yun Che’s true colors.

Yun Che's heart trembled. He knew that if he wanted to defeat this black-robed man, strength alone would not be enough. He had to find his opponent's weakness in order to defeat him with one strike.

So, he took a deep breath, retracted the golden light on his body, and his figure became erratic again. Like a cunning fox, he stalked around the black-robed man, looking for an opportunity to strike.

The black-robed man clearly hadn't expected Yun Che to change so dramatically. He stared at Yun Che with a hint of irritation, the black energy in his hand surging ever more intensely. However, at this moment, Yun Che suddenly flashed and appeared behind him, striking him squarely in the back with a punch.

The black-robed man was horrified. He hadn't expected Yun Che to be so fast. However, he was an experienced warrior after all. In the critical moment, he quickly turned around, put his hands together, and a black energy shield instantly appeared in front of him.

"Bang!" Yun Che's fist slammed fiercely into the energy shield, making a deafening sound. However, this energy shield was extremely resilient and actually blocked all of Yun Che's fist wind.

Yun Che's heart sank. He knew that breaking through this energy shield wouldn't be easy. However, he didn't give up. He took another deep breath, and the power of the Golden Dragon Ball surged within him once again.

"Hmph, let's see how long you can hold out!" Yun Che roared, charging towards the black-robed man once again. This time, he didn't use fist winds, but instead quickly formed seals with both hands, and a golden energy wave instantly condensed in his palms.

"Golden Dragon Roars to the Sky!" Yun Che shouted, and suddenly pushed the golden energy wave towards the black-robed man. The golden energy wave was like a roaring golden dragon, rushing towards the black-robed man with the power to destroy the world.

The black-robed man's expression changed drastically. He hadn't expected Yun Che to possess such a powerful move. However, at this moment, he had no time for further thought. He quickly mobilized all his spiritual energy, forming a black energy shield, attempting to resist the golden energy fluctuations.

"Bang!" The golden energy wave slammed into the black energy shield with a deafening roar. The two powerful forces collided and intertwined in the air, seemingly threatening to tear the world apart.

However, at this critical moment, the black-robed man suddenly flashed and unexpectedly escaped Yun Che's attack. He looked at Yun Che coldly, his tone tinged with sarcasm: "Hmph, is this all you can do? How disappointing."

Yun Che's heart trembled. He understood that the black-robed man's strength far surpassed his own. If he wanted to defeat him, he would have to put in even more effort.

At this moment, Youyue suddenly shouted, "Yun Che, be careful!" Yun Che was startled upon hearing this and quickly turned around to look. He saw a black-robed figure who had appeared behind him without him noticing, with a wave of black energy in his hand directed towards him.

Yun Che secretly cried out inwardly, "Not good!" He hadn't expected these black-robed men to be so cunning. However, at this moment, he had no time for further thought. He quickly mobilized his spiritual energy, forming a golden energy shield, attempting to resist the black energy fluctuations.

"Bang!" The black energy wave fiercely slammed into the golden energy shield, making a deafening sound. Yun Che felt a huge force coming from him, and he was involuntarily sent flying backwards.

"Puff!" Yun Che spat out a mouthful of blood in the air, his face turning even paler. He knew he was injured. However, he didn't give up. He endured the pain and stood up again, ready to face the next battle.

When Youyue saw Yun Che injured, a flicker of worry flashed across her eyes. However, she quickly suppressed her worry and threw herself into the battle once again. She knew that at this moment, she had to be even stronger to protect Yun Che.

Seeing Yun Che injured, the black-robed men all smiled triumphantly. They understood that this seemingly powerful enemy was no longer a threat. Thus, they attacked Yun Che and You Yue even harder, attempting to defeat them in one fell swoop.

However, Yun Che and You Yue didn't give up. They stood back to back, facing the siege of the black-robed men. Their eyes were filled with determination and courage, as if they would not retreat no matter how great the difficulties.

"Youyue, we will definitely win!" Yun Che shouted loudly. His voice was filled with determination and strength, as if it could dispel all darkness.

Hearing this, Youyue felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She looked at Yun Che, her eyes gleaming with determination, "Yes! We will definitely win!"

And so, they plunged into battle once more. Yun Che swung his fists, each one seemingly capable of tearing through space; You Yue wielded the longsword in her hand, the blade gleaming like a weave, each swing brimming with determination and grandeur.

Although the black-robed warriors were powerful, they gradually began to lose strength under the combined attack of Yun Che and You Yue. They began to show signs of fatigue, and their offensive was no longer as fierce.

Yun Che and You Yue watched this scene with a secret joy in their hearts. They understood that this was their chance to turn the tide. Thus, they attacked the black-robed men even harder, attempting to defeat them in one fell swoop.

Finally, during a fierce exchange, Yun Che found a weakness in the black-robed men. With a furious roar, he charged towards the black-robed leader like a tiger descending from a mountain. His fists shone with a golden light, seemingly capable of tearing through anything.

The black-robed leader was horrified. He hadn't expected Yun Che to unleash such formidable power. However, at this moment, he had no time for further thought. He quickly mobilized all his spiritual energy, forming a black energy shield to try to block Yun Che's fist.

However, this time, Yun Che's fist blasted like the breaking light of dawn, piercing through the black energy shield and fiercely slamming into the chest of the black-robed leader.

"Bang!" The black-robed leader was struck hard, flying backwards and falling heavily to the ground. He spat out blood and his face turned pale as paper.

Yun Che and You Yue were overjoyed when they saw this scene. They understood that they had defeated the leader of the black-robed men and had won the battle.

However, at this moment, the leader of the black-robed men suddenly stood up, his eyes flashing with madness: "Humph, you think you can defeat me like this? How ridiculous!"

Yun Che and You Yue's hearts trembled. They hadn't expected the black-robed leader to be so stubborn. However, at this moment, they had no time to dwell on it. They quickly mobilized their spiritual energy, preparing to meet the black-robed leader's final blow.

The black-robed leader sneered and quickly formed seals with his hands. A wave of black energy condensed in his palms and rushed towards Yun Che and You Yue with devastating force.

Yun Che and You Yue's expressions changed drastically. They hadn't expected the black-robed leader to possess such a powerful move. However, at this moment, they couldn't afford to retreat. They hugged each other tightly, their spiritual energy surging to its maximum, forming a golden energy shield to resist the black energy fluctuations.
