Chapter 316 Mysterious Aid, Crisis Re-emerges
The dazzling light, like a sharp sword, pierced through the surrounding darkness, and the intense light caused Huanmo and the others to instinctively close their eyes. As the light dimmed slightly, they slowly opened their eyes, trying to make out the appearance of the mysterious figure.
"Who is this? Is it friend or foe?" Huanmo wondered to himself, his heart pounding with tension. He tried to stand up, enduring the pain in his body, but felt a wave of dizziness and almost fell to the ground again.
The enormous figure was also startled by the sudden light, halting its approach and warily watching the mysterious entity in the sky. "Hmph, another busybody! Whoever you are, don't even think about ruining my plans today!" His voice was filled with anger and provocation.
The mysterious figure descended slowly from the sky; it was an elderly man dressed in a white robe, radiating a soft light. His face was kind, yet his eyes held a dignified air. "Dark power, do not act recklessly here! This land will not be allowed to be trampled upon!" The old man's voice was steady and powerful, resounding like a great bell.
Upon seeing the old man, Huanmo and the others felt a glimmer of hope. "Could he be here to help us?" the woman in white murmured, her eyes gleaming with anticipation. Yichen nodded slightly. "I hope so. In our current state, we are no match for this powerful enemy."
The enormous figure sneered, "You think you can stop me, you old codger? You overestimate yourself!" With that, he waved his hands, and several black energy blades shot towards the old man. The old man remained calm, gently raising his hand, and a transparent shield appeared in front of him, blocking all the black energy blades.
"A mere trick!" The old man's voice carried a hint of disdain. He formed hand seals and chanted incantations, and a golden beam of light shot from his hands, flying towards the enormous figure. Upon seeing this, the enormous figure hurriedly erected a black barrier, attempting to block the golden light's attack.
The golden light collided with the black barrier, creating a deafening explosion that shook the ground. Huanmo and the others were caught in the blast, their bodies swaying again. They could only cling tightly to the rocks around them to avoid being overturned.
"This old man's power is incredible!" Huanmo exclaimed inwardly, while also feeling a sense of relief. "Luckily, he's on our side, otherwise we would have been in grave danger today."
However, the colossal figure was not easily defeated. He roared, the black mist around his body thickening further, and his power seemed to increase continuously. "Old man, you think you can defeat me like this? Today I'll show you that the power of darkness is invincible!" His voice was filled with madness.
As he spoke, he raised his hands high and chanted a strange incantation. Dark clouds filled the sky, and streaks of black lightning struck down from the clouds, heading towards the old man and Huanmo and the others. The old man's expression turned serious, and he quickly cast a stronger defensive spell in an attempt to withstand this terrifying attack.
Huanmo and the others dared not slacken their efforts. They exerted all their remaining strength to help the old man withstand the black lightning's attack. However, the power of the black lightning was simply too great, and their defenses gradually began to crumble.
"This won't do! Our strength is constantly being depleted, while he seems to have endless resources!" Yi Chen said anxiously, his forehead covered in sweat. Huan Mo gritted his teeth, his heart filled with resentment. "We can't give up! We must find a way to exploit his weakness!"
Just then, Huanmo suddenly noticed a faintly glowing black crystal on the chest of the enormous figure as it chanted the incantation. "Everyone, look! That crystal on his chest might be his weakness!" Huanmo shouted.
The woman in white and Yi Chen followed Huan Mo's gaze and also noticed the black crystal. "If we can destroy this crystal, perhaps we can defeat him!" the woman in white said, a glimmer of hope flashing in her eyes.
However, the enormous figure seemed to sense their intentions, and its attacks intensified, attempting to prevent them from approaching the black crystal. Black lightning rained down, creating deep craters in the ground and leaving the surrounding environment in ruins.
The old man was also doing his best to defend against the attack, and his face showed signs of exhaustion. "You guys go and destroy that crystal, I'll hold off his attacks!" the old man shouted.
Huanmo and the others nodded. Taking advantage of the moment when the old man was blocking the attack, they rushed towards the enormous figure. However, the enormous figure's defenses were extremely tight, and every step they took was incredibly difficult.
"I can't back down, I must succeed!" Huanmo encouraged himself, his eyes filled with determination. He wielded his sword, constantly deflecting the surrounding black energy attacks, and struggled to get closer to the black crystal.
Just as Huanmo was about to reach the black crystal, the enormous figure suddenly roared, and a powerful wave of black energy swept towards him. Huanmo was unable to dodge in time and was struck by the energy wave, falling to the ground once again.
"Huanmo!" The woman in white and Yichen were shocked to see this and rushed over to help Huanmo up. Blood trickled from the corner of Huanmo's mouth, and his face was as pale as paper, but his eyes remained resolute. "I'm fine, let's continue!" he said through gritted teeth.
Just then, Wanru and Ying joined the battle, launching an attack from the side to try and distract the giant figure. With everyone's efforts, Huanmo finally got close to the black crystal again.
He raised his sword and slashed at the black crystal with all his might. With a "crack," a crack appeared in the black crystal, and the huge figure let out a painful scream, his attack slowing down.
"Now! Destroy it completely!" Huanmo shouted. The woman in white, Yichen, Wanru, and Ying also unleashed their powers, attacking the black crystal.
With the combined attack of everyone, the black crystal was finally destroyed. The enormous figure let out a desperate roar, its body began to dissipate, and the black mist gradually dissipated.
Huanmo and the others breathed a sigh of relief; they had finally defeated this powerful enemy. However, just when they thought it was all over, the old man's expression suddenly turned extremely grim.
"Oh no! This is just one of his clones. His true form is gathering power, preparing to launch an even more powerful attack! We must find a way to deal with this as soon as possible, or the consequences will be unimaginable!" the old man said anxiously.
Huanmo and the others felt a chill run down their spines. Having just endured a fierce battle, their strength was nearly depleted. Now, they faced an even more powerful enemy. Could they truly prevail? Just how powerful was this mysterious foe? And how could they find a way to defeat it? A new crisis descended upon them; what would become of Huanmo and the others...?
