Chapter 40: A desperate battle, a turning point appears
The appearance of the shadow made the situation extremely critical in an instant. The black vines that emerged from the ground were extremely tough. Even when Bajie chopped them with his nine-toothed rake, only shallow marks were left. The vines quickly wrapped around Bajie's legs, trying to drag him down. Bajie struggled hard, shouting, "I, the old pig, will not be caught by you so easily!" He exerted force and broke the vines, but more vines swept towards him.
Ao Bing was fending off the attack of the shadow while using a portion of his flames to burn the vines. When the flames touched the vines, they made a sizzling sound and emitted bursts of black smoke. However, the vines seemed endless, and as soon as a batch was burned, new ones grew out.
Yang Jian held a three-pointed double-edged sword and confronted the shadow head-on. The shadow was erratic and extremely fast, and Yang Jian's attacks repeatedly missed. The shadow took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and dark energy shot towards Yang Jian like sharp arrows. Yang Jian opened his heavenly eyes, saw the trajectory of the dark energy, dodged sideways, and swung the three-pointed double-edged sword at the same time, chopping off the energy one by one.
Feng Yao used all her strength to control the Holy Spirit Pearl, and the light continued to expand, trying to suppress the dark aura around her. But the power of the shadow was too strong, and the light of the Holy Spirit Pearl began to flicker under the impact of the dark power. Xi Feng, on the side, continued to condense water vapor, forming water balls to hit the shadow and vines, trying to relieve the pressure on everyone.
As the battle continued, everyone gradually felt exhausted. The black shadow continued to advance, while the ghost sneered at the side, as if he was enjoying everyone's struggle. Just when everyone was in a desperate situation, Feng Yao, who had been observing the battle, suddenly discovered that every time the ghost launched a large-scale attack, the black crystal on his chest would flash a stronger light, as if it was absorbing some kind of power.
"Everyone listen to me!" Feng Yao shouted, "The power of the shadow seems to come from the black crystal in his chest. If we find a way to attack that crystal, maybe we can find a breakthrough!"
When everyone heard this, a glimmer of hope ignited in their hearts. Yang Jian was the first to change his tactics. He no longer blindly attacked the shadow's body, but seized the opportunity to attack the black crystal on the shadow's chest. The shadow noticed Yang Jian's intention and quickly dodged, while increasing his control over the shadow and vines, trying to prevent Yang Jian from approaching.
Bajie saw an opportunity and threw the nine-toothed rake at the shadow. The shadow dodged and the rake flew past his body. But this successfully attracted the shadow's attention. Yang Jian took the opportunity to quickly approach, and the three-pointed double-edged sword in his hand shone brightly, slashing at the black crystal fiercely.
The shadow's face changed, and it was too late to dodge. He could only hastily gather dark energy to resist. With a loud "clang", Yang Jian's three-pointed double-edged sword chopped on the black crystal, splashing sparks. The shadow groaned, and his body trembled slightly. The surrounding black shadows and vines also stopped for a moment.
"Keep attacking the crystal! His power is affected!" Yang Jian shouted. Everyone was inspired and attacked Youying, aiming directly at the black crystal on his chest. Youying resisted everyone's attacks while trying to get out of the predicament, but at this moment, he was obviously not as calm as before.
Under the combined attack of everyone, the black crystal on Shadow's chest began to crack, and the light became dim. With a crisp "crack", the cracks on the crystal became larger and larger, and finally shattered with a "bang".
The moment the black crystal shattered, a powerful recoil force erupted. The shadow screamed, and its body flew backwards, hitting the wall of the hall heavily. The surrounding shadows and vines instantly lost their power and dissipated. The hall finally returned to calm, and everyone collapsed to the ground exhausted, but their eyes were shining with the light of victory.
However, just when everyone thought the crisis was over, wisps of black smoke suddenly escaped from the broken black crystals, and these wisps quickly gathered together to form a vague figure. Although this figure was illusory, it exuded a dark aura that was stronger than before. A more severe challenge was quietly approaching...
Chapter 41: Dark Rebirth, Mysterious Help
The black smoke that escaped from the broken black crystal quickly condensed into a more powerful dark figure. This figure was surrounded by a thick dark aura, as if it could swallow up all the light. The shadow slowly stood up from the wall, with a crazy smile on his face. He stretched out his hands towards the dark figure, as if welcoming some kind of new life.
"Do you think you can destroy me by breaking the crystal? How naive! This is the beginning of my true power!" Shadow said with a wild laugh.
The dark figure gradually became clear, and it looked exactly like the shadow, only taller and more ferocious. Its eyes flashed blood-red light, and a huge black sickle appeared out of thin air in its hand, emitting a chilling aura.
