Chapter 213 The Decisive Moment: Truth Behind Truth

There was indeed something behind Dai Yao, but she didn't even turn her head.

I've seen it all, what horror movies haven't I watched before I transmigrated into this book?

You think you can scare her with such a small trick?

Dreaming!

Dai Yao inwardly ranted and rave, but outwardly remained calm and composed, maintaining her queen-like aura as she approached the mastermind behind the scenes step by step.

"A mere trick." Dai Yao sneered, gathering even greater power in her hand, a power that even caused fluctuations in the surrounding space.

The attack that instantly killed the late-stage Nascent Soul expert was incredibly cool, but it also took a huge toll on her health. Now she feels completely drained.

No, we have to do it quickly!

Enraged by the failure of their intimidation tactics, the mastermind launched a fierce attack.

In an instant, all sorts of spells and magical artifacts rained down on Dai Yao like a storm.

While dodging, Dai Yao searched for the mastermind's weakness.

This guy looks incredibly powerful, but he's actually just a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, just like her. He definitely has weaknesses too!

Just then, Dai Yao keenly sensed that there was an extremely subtle fluctuation in the aura surrounding the mastermind, like a whirlpool hidden beneath a calm lake.

This fluctuation was fleeting; if she hadn't been exceptionally sensitive to the flow of energy, she wouldn't have been able to detect it at all.

"Found it!" Dai Yao was overjoyed. Although the fluctuation was subtle, it contained a peculiar energy that was completely different from the other luck on the mastermind.

Is this his weakness?

Dai Yao narrowed her eyes, a glint of light flashing in them.

She subtly adjusted her attack direction, gradually concentrating her power on the location of that fluctuation...

"What are you looking at?" The mastermind noticed Dai Yao's strange gaze and a sense of foreboding suddenly rose in his heart.

Dai Yao's lips curled into a wicked smile, her eyes gleaming with confidence.

"Sorry, you've revealed your little secret~" Her sweet voice contained endless killing intent, and the power gathering in her hand was like a supernova about to explode, shining with a chilling light.

"Take this! My ultimate technique—Deprivation of Destiny!"

Alarm bells rang in the mastermind's mind, and an unprecedented sense of crisis enveloped him.

He frantically mobilized all his spiritual power in an attempt to resist Dai Yao's attack.

However, Dai Yao's attack was like a persistent leech, firmly locking onto that slightest fluctuation on his body.

The surrounding space was violently distorted by this powerful energy, as if it were about to be torn apart.

With a deafening roar, Dai Yao's attack poured out like a storm, striking the mastermind behind the scenes with devastating force.

The protective aura around him shattered instantly, and he flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.

His henchmen scattered like birds and beasts the moment they saw their leader fall.

Some knelt down and begged for mercy, shouting "Queen, spare my life!" while others slipped away faster than rabbits.

Dai Yao stood in the center of the smoke-filled battlefield, her figure slightly swaying, but she still maintained the posture of a victor.

She slowly raised her hand, gently wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, her tone calm yet carrying an undeniable authority: "It's over."

The world seemed to stand still at that moment, with only the whistling of the wind across the battlefield...

"Yao Yao!" A familiar voice broke the silence.

The mysterious figure rushed to Dai Yao's side and hugged her tightly, as if afraid she would disappear like a bubble.

"Yaoyao! You scared me to death! Thank goodness you're alright!" His voice trembled, filled with the relief of surviving a close call.

Dai Yao hugged him back tightly, burying her head in his chest, feeling his heartbeat. At this moment, all her strength turned into tenderness.

"Thank goodness, I have you," she said, her voice choked with emotion.

The two embraced and wept. In the face of life and death, their feelings seemed to have been elevated to the highest level, more real and profound than any vow of eternal love.

When the smoke cleared, what lay before everyone was a scene of utter devastation.

The once ethereal mountain is now nothing but ruins; the once vibrant spiritual fields have turned into scorched earth.

The injured cultivators groaned and howled; this hellish scene was shocking to behold.

Despite the excruciating pain, Dai Yao slowly pushed the mysterious figure away, looked around, and felt a mix of emotions.

The horrific scene pained her, but she knew it was all worth it.

They won; they protected this land and safeguarded the peace of the cultivation world.

“There are still many things to do…” Dai Yao took a deep breath, her eyes filled with determination.

Rebuilding the cultivation world will be a long and arduous task, but they will not back down.

"Yaoyao, what are your plans next..." The mysterious figure looked at her with concern, knowing that her injuries were severe.

Dai Yao smiled slightly, forcing herself to stay alert, and pointed to a distant, faintly visible mountain peak, saying, "I've heard there's a mysterious ruin there, perhaps..." She paused, giving everyone a meaningful look, "...perhaps the answers we need are there."

After saying that, Dai Yao took the lead and walked towards the mountain peak. Although her back was a little unsteady, it was full of strength.

Seeing this, everyone followed suit, their eyes filled with hope and anticipation.

"Wait for me!" A clear voice called from afar...
