Just as Chen Siyu and Chen Ruixuan remained locked in a stalemate with the Conservative Faction's leader, the surrounding cultivators shouted their encouragement in waves. Then, the Conservative Faction's leader suddenly revealed a sinister smile and secretly activated a mysterious formation hidden within the valley. In an instant, black curtains of light rose around the valley, trapping everyone inside. At the same time, an evil force began eroding their spiritual power.
"You ignorant fools who don't know your own limits, today will be the day you die!" the Conservative Faction's leader laughed wildly, his figure appearing especially grotesque amid the black light.
Chen Siyu's heart tightened. She sensed that this evil force was no ordinary threat. Not only was it weakening everyone's spiritual power, it was also disrupting their minds. Chen Ruixuan noticed the danger as well. While struggling to resist the corruption of the evil force, he shouted, "Sister, this formation is strange. We need to find a way to break it quickly!"
At that moment, the cultivators trapped within the formation began to panic. Some with weaker wills had already been controlled by the evil force. Their eyes turned vacant as they began attacking their companions. The scene quickly descended into chaos.
Chen Siyu took a deep breath and forced herself to remain calm. She carefully studied the black curtain of light and the formation's patterns, trying to find a flaw. Suddenly, she noticed a rune at the formation's core, flickering with an eerie glow. It somewhat resembled an ancient sealing rune she had seen in a parallel universe.
"Ruixuan, I may have found the key to breaking the formation! That core rune—I want to use Dragon's Roar to strike it, but I need you to use Pretty Me Punch to hold off the Conservative Faction's leader," Chen Siyu said urgently.
Chen Ruixuan nodded. "Don't worry, Sister. Leave it to me!" With that, he unleashed Pretty Me Punch once more and charged at the Conservative Faction's leader. This time, his fist technique was even more agile, every punch carrying Chaos Power as he tried to disrupt his opponent's rhythm.
The Conservative Faction's leader sneered. "With such a ridiculous fist technique, you think you can stop me?" He waved the staff in his hand, sending bolts of black lightning crashing toward Chen Ruixuan.
Chen Ruixuan nimbly dodged the lightning, still teasing him without pause. "Oh my, those lightning bolts are really ugly. They're not even half as good-looking as my fist technique." At the same time, he seized an opening and struck the Conservative Faction's leader's arm with a punch, causing his spellcasting to stall briefly.
Chen Siyu seized the opportunity, gathering all her spiritual power before unleashing Dragon's Roar. This Dragon's Roar was even more powerful than before. Accompanied by her hilariously thunderous roar, a massive five-colored dragon of spiritual power charged toward the rune at the formation's core.
The spiritual dragon slammed into the rune, erupting in a dazzling burst of light. The rune began to tremble violently, and the black curtain of light shook along with it. Seeing this, the Conservative Faction's leader grew anxious. He wanted to abandon his attack on Chen Ruixuan and stop Chen Siyu, but Chen Ruixuan was not about to let him succeed.
"Hey, you can't leave yet. We haven't had enough fun!" Chen Ruixuan said with a grin, using Pretty Me Punch to keep the Conservative Faction's leader tightly entangled.
Under Chen Siyu's continued assault, the rune finally could not withstand the pressure any longer. With a boom, it shattered. The black curtain of light vanished instantly, and the evil force dispersed with it. The trapped cultivators gradually returned to normal.
"We did it!" Chen Ruixuan shouted excitedly.
Everyone cheered, their admiration for Chen Siyu and Chen Ruixuan deepening even further. Seeing that the situation had turned against him, the Conservative Faction's leader tried to flee.
"Trying to run? Not so easily!" Chen Siyu shouted angrily. The Five-Colored Ribbon shot out in an instant, wrapping around the Conservative Faction's leader's legs and slamming him heavily to the ground.
After this crisis, the cultivators who had once held reservations about the new cultivation philosophy and martial arts were completely won over by Chen Siyu and Chen Ruixuan's strength and wisdom. However, although this turmoil had temporarily subsided, Chen Siyu knew that the Conservative Faction would not let the matter rest. More challenges awaited them in the future. And after this incident, what changes would unfold in the Primordial World?
