Chapter 489

At this moment, a noisy mechanical roar came from the surrounding ruins, like ancient gears starting to turn again, or like the ringing of a death knell.

Immediately afterwards, a group of mechanical puppets emerged from the dark ruins like a tide.

They were huge in size and ferocious in appearance. Every joint emitted a cold metallic luster and strange light flashed on their bodies. They rushed towards the crowd with endless murderous intent. These lights wandered around them, like evil souls looking for prey, giving people a chilling feeling.

Seeing this, Jing Yuan showed no fear in his eyes. He shouted loudly and rushed towards the enemy like an arrow.

The long sword in his hand was raised high, and in an instant, a flash of lightning appeared, like a lightning that cuts through the darkness, and it chopped fiercely at the mechanical puppet in front.

The moment the long sword came into contact with the puppet, a dazzling light and huge impact force burst out, and sparks flew everywhere.

Jing Yuan didn't hesitate at all, his body was as fast as lightning and he fought with the enemy in an instant.

Each swing of his sword was full of power, and the lightning crisscrossed among the puppet group, each strike hitting the target accurately and beating those mechanical puppets back step by step.

Feixiao, Jingliu and Huaiyan were not to be outdone and joined the battle. Feixiao was agile and focused on attacking the joints and vital points of the mechanical puppets. Those puppets that seemed extremely hard, under her attack, sparks kept spurting out of the joints and their movements gradually became slow.

Wherever the mirror stream went, a thick layer of frost quickly formed on the surface of the mechanical puppet.

As the frost spread, it became more difficult for the puppets to move. Some were even frozen in place and turned into ice sculptures.

Huai Yan waved his hands, and flames burst out all over his body. He pounced towards the mechanical puppet. Wherever the flames reached, the metal shell of the puppet was burned red, and some even began to melt, emitting a pungent smell.

Ying Xing had just merged with the sphere and his body was still very weak, his face was as pale as paper.

But he was not idle either. He gritted his teeth, endured the discomfort of his body, and concentrated on mobilizing the newfound strength in his body.

He slowly raised his hands, and as he moved, a gentle power surged from his body.

This force was like a trickle of water, gradually gathering around Jing Yuan and the other three, and then quickly forming a transparent dark green protective shield.

The shield exudes a faint halo and looks indestructible, with some runes faintly visible on it.

The attacks of those mechanical puppets fell on Jing Yuan like raindrops, some were swinging their huge metal arms to hit hard, some were emitting energy rays, and some were spraying corrosive liquids from their mouths.

However, these attacks landed on the dark green shield and did not cause any damage at all.

The energy of the attack created ripples on the shield, and then disappeared without a trace like a stone sinking into the sea.

"Ying Xing, is this your new ability?" After Jing Yuan chopped the mechanical puppet in front of him into pieces, he turned around and looked at Ying Xing.

A look of surprise appeared on his face. He was very surprised and relieved about this new defensive force. In the fierce battle, this was undoubtedly a huge help and provided an extra protection when facing the enemy.

Ying Xing was about to answer when suddenly, a mechanical puppet took advantage of the chaos to break through everyone's defense and rushed towards Ying Xing.

It raised its huge metal arm and smashed it down towards Ying Xing. Ying Xing wanted to dodge, but his body was out of control and he could only watch the attack come.

"Bang!" The metal arm hit Ying Xing hard. Despite the protection of the shield, the huge impact still caused Ying Xing to fly out and hit a huge rock. The shield cracked under this blow and then shattered and disappeared.

Ying Xing fell to the ground, blood gushing out of his mouth. He felt as if his body was falling apart. His arms were scratched by the sharp stones on the ground, and every inch of his skin felt excruciating pain.

To his surprise, he found that he had lost the ability to heal himself. The injuries in his body could not recover on their own and he could only endure this endless pain.

"Ying Xing!" Seeing this, Jing Liu's face suddenly changed, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.

Without any hesitation, she rushed back as fast as lightning.

The sword in her hand turned into a cold light and instantly penetrated the mechanical puppet blocking her.

Under her fierce attack, those puppets were easily destroyed here like fragile pieces of paper.

Metal fragments flew everywhere, flashing cold light in the sunlight. Jing Liu did not stop. She hurried to Ying Xing, squatted down, and quickly helped him up.

After Ying Xing was helped up, his eyes were a little dazed. His gaze fell on his injured arm and he was stunned.

There was a deep wound on the arm, and blood was gushing out, slowly flowing down the arm and dripping onto the ground, forming shocking blood flowers.

Every drop of blood that was lost seemed to be draining away the strength in his body. He could clearly feel the life flowing away with the blood. This feeling was so strange and real.

Jingliu looked at Ying Xing like this and felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

She followed his gaze, and at first, she just glanced at it casually, not paying too much attention.

However, soon she seemed to realize something, her eyes suddenly widened, and she looked at his arm with surprise.

There was confusion, shock, and more importantly, worry about the unknown situation in his eyes.

"Your healing ability..." Jingliu spoke, her voice trembling a little. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

"Well...it seems that it is the effect of the ball that 'sealed' the thing in my body." Ying Xing frowned slightly, and there was a sense of calm acceptance in his tone.

"Is this pain? It's quite novel." Ying Xing said, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile that was somewhat bitter and curious.

This feeling of pain was so unfamiliar to him. Over the long years, he had long been accustomed to his body's rapid healing and had almost forgotten that being injured could bring such excruciating pain.

And now, this new experience made him feel a different kind of pain.

"Why are you so happy? Bandage it quickly." Jing Liu looked at the slightly raised corner of his mouth and felt angry and amused at the same time. She knew Ying Xing's character, but now was not the time to joke.

Jingliu bandaged Yingxing's wound quickly. Although her movements were fast, she tried to be as gentle as possible for fear of hurting Yingxing.

However, Ying Xing only frowned slightly and did not show too much pain. His eyes were fixed on the wound that was constantly bleeding, as if he was studying a rare treasure.
