Chapter 354 Dark Guardian
Chapter 354 Dark Guardian
Under the cover of that powerful dark force, Li Yunfei and others suddenly found it difficult to breathe, as if countless invisible hands were pulling them, trying to drag them into an endless abyss.
Li Yunfei gritted his teeth and tried to resist the pressure of this force. His face was twisted in pain, and veins popped out on his forehead. "Don't give up!" He squeezed out his voice from between his teeth, with firm determination.
Lin Yue held the staff tightly in both hands. The light of the gem on the staff dimmed and her body trembled. "I... I can't hold on any longer." Sweat slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the ground beneath her feet.
Zhang Hao roared, trying to break free from the shackles of the dark power, his spear trembling in his hand, "I will not surrender!" His eyes burned with unyielding rage.
The flames in Feng Yu's hands grew weaker, like candles in the wind that could go out at any moment. "We can't fall like this!" Her voice contained a hint of despair, but more of unwillingness.
Mo Ying's figure was looming in the darkness. His breathing was rapid, and the short blade was flashing a faint cold light in the darkness. "Let's charge out together!"
Li Yunfei took a deep breath, and the power in his body surged wildly, and a dazzling light burst out from the artifact. He took a step forward, and the light was like a sharp sword, splitting the surrounding darkness.
"Follow me!" he shouted.
Lin Yue felt Li Yunfei's power and a glimmer of hope surged in her heart. She concentrated again, and the gem on the staff glowed again. Rays of magical light followed Li Yunfei, illuminating the way forward for them.
Zhang Hao followed closely behind, waving his spear, creating a gust of wind and dispersing the approaching dark power.
The flames in Feng Yu's hands burned again. Although they were not as hot as before, they also added strength to them.
Mo Ying shuttled through the darkness like a ghost, exploring the dangers ahead for everyone.
They moved forward step by step, each step requiring great effort. The dark force kept squeezing them, trying to drag them back to where they were.
Li Yunfei's clothes were soaked with sweat, and his steps began to become heavy, but his eyes remained firm. "It's almost time, we're going to rush out!"
Lin Yue's magic power was almost exhausted, her lips turned pale, but the spell in her mouth did not stop.
Zhang Hao's arms were sore from exerting too much force, but he still held the spear tightly and refused to let go.
Feng Yu's flames were sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and her body was shaking, but she still held on.
There were many wounds on Mo Ying's body, and blood stained his clothes red, but his speed did not slow down at all.
Finally, thanks to their unremitting efforts, the grip of darkness began to weaken.
"Try harder!" Li Yunfei shouted.
Everyone roared in unison, unleashing the last of their strength.
In an instant, the light became brighter and the dark forces dissipated like broken ice.
They broke out of the envelopment of the dark power and collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.
"We...we succeeded." Lin Yue said weakly.
"But we can't relax yet. The source of the mysterious power is just ahead." Li Yunfei struggled to stand up.
Everyone supported each other and continued to move forward.
Deep in the valley, an ancient castle stood there. The walls of the castle were covered with black vines, exuding a gloomy atmosphere.
"Is this where the mysterious power lies?" Zhang Hao looked at the castle, his heart full of vigilance.
Li Yunfei nodded and said, "Be careful."
They slowly approached the castle, the gate opened automatically, and a cold breath blew in.
The castle was filled with thick fog and it was impossible to see what was going on inside.
Li Yunfei walked in front cautiously. The artifact emitted a faint light, illuminating a small area around it.
Suddenly, a sound of footsteps came from the thick fog, getting closer and closer.
"Get ready for battle!" Li Yunfei whispered.
Everyone nervously gripped their weapons, waiting for the enemy to appear.
A figure walked out of the thick fog, a mysterious man in a black cloak.
"You're finally here." The mysterious man's voice was low and hoarse.
Li Yunfei stared at the mysterious man, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The mysterious man laughed, and his laughter echoed in the castle, making people feel creepy.
"I am the guardian of darkness. You cannot stop the coming of darkness." said the mysterious man.
As soon as the mysterious man finished speaking, the nerves of Li Yunfei and others instantly tensed up.
Li Yunfei held the artifact tightly, and the light on the artifact trembled slightly, as if it could also feel the tension and anger in his heart. "No matter what kind of guardian you are, we will not let the darkness succeed!" His voice was firm and powerful, echoing in the hall of the castle.
Lin Yue held the staff tightly with both hands. The gem on the staff flashed an unstable light. Her eyes revealed a hint of fear, but more of determination. "Don't scare us!" She gritted her teeth and said.
Zhang Hao held up his spear, with the tip pointing directly at the mysterious man, "Come on, let's see what you can do!" He roared loudly, his voice full of desire to fight.
The flames in Feng Yu's hands burned more vigorously, and the scorching temperature seemed to disperse the surrounding fog. "No matter how powerful you are, we are not afraid!" Her eyes were full of challenges.
Mo Ying flashed and disappeared into the darkness, ready to wait for an opportunity to strike.
The mysterious man sneered and waved his hands. A powerful dark force surged out from his palms and rushed towards Li Yunfei and others.
Li Yunfei did not flinch. He waved his magic weapon, and a beam of light collided with the dark power, making a huge roar. The light and darkness intertwined, and for a moment the entire hall was illuminated.
Seeing this, Lin Yue quickly cast a spell, and beams of magic light shot towards the mysterious man. The mysterious man dodged sideways, and the magic light hit the wall, leaving deep marks.
Zhang Hao took the opportunity to rush forward, and with a whirring sound, he stabbed the mysterious man with his spear. The mysterious man raised his arm, easily blocked the attack of the spear, and then kicked Zhang Hao away.
"Zhang Hao!" Feng Yu exclaimed, and with both hands, he launched a huge ball of fire, which hit the mysterious man. The mysterious man was enveloped by the flames, but he quickly walked out of the flames, unharmed.
Mo Ying suddenly appeared in the darkness and stabbed the mysterious man in the back with his short blade. The mysterious man seemed to have noticed it and swung his hand back, sending Mo Ying flying.
Li Yunfei saw his companions getting hurt one after another, and the anger in his heart burned even more fiercely. "Everyone, come together!" He shouted and rushed towards the mysterious man again.
Lin Yue, Zhang Hao, Feng Yu and Mo Ying followed without hesitation.
Li Yunfei's magic weapon streaked out rays of light in the darkness, and each strike was powerful. The mysterious man kept dodging and counterattacking, his movements were swift and agile.
Lin Yue's magic light continued to shoot towards the mysterious man, trying to interfere with his actions.
Zhang Hao's spear stabbed at the mysterious man again and again. Although it was blocked every time, he remained undaunted.
The flames of Feng Yu danced in the hall, lighting up every corner.
Mo Ying was looking for the mysterious man's weakness in the darkness and launching sneak attacks again and again.
The battle became more and more intense, and Li Yunfei and others were covered with wounds, but their fighting spirit became higher and higher.
The mysterious man also began to feel a little tired. He did not expect Li Yunfei and others to be so tenacious.
"You guys are asking for your own death!" the mysterious man roared.
He once again increased the output of dark power, and the entire hall was shrouded in darkness.
The vision of Li Yunfei and others was greatly affected, and their attacks became somewhat blind.
At this moment, Li Yunfei suddenly felt a warm power coming from the artifact. He thought, "Everyone, concentrate your strength and follow me!"
Everyone poured their own strength into the artifact.
The light from the artifact suddenly surged, illuminating the entire dark hall.
The mysterious man was enveloped by this powerful light and cried out in pain.
The light gradually dissipated, and the mysterious man fell to the ground, breathing weakly.
"Finally defeated him." Li Yunfei said, panting.
Everyone collapsed to the ground exhausted.
Just when they thought everything was over, a more violent tremor suddenly came from deep within the castle.
"What's going on?" Lin Yue asked in horror.
Li Yunfei stood up and said, "No matter what it is, we have to go and take a look."
They supported each other and walked towards the depths of the castle.
The further you go in, the thicker the darkness becomes.
Finally, they came to a huge secret room.
The door of the secret room slowly opened, revealing a suffocating dark force.
