Chapter 107: Dawn in Despair
The wind was howling, and the crack in the sky was like the mouth of a greedy beast, constantly expanding and swallowing everything around it.
The powerful suction pulled everyone mercilessly, making their clothes rustle, as if it was going to tear them into pieces.
The air grew thinner, breathing became difficult, and it felt like a huge rock was pressing on my chest.
"Everyone, hold hands and fight together!" General Lin's voice was like a bell, his beard flying, and he was the first to grab Ah Hu's hand beside him.
His body was as majestic as a mountain, he stood firmly in place, resisting the terrible suction.
"General, this is not a solution!" Yingfeng's face was solemn. He held Xiaoxuan's arm tightly with one hand and embedded the other hand firmly into the rock wall.
"This suction is getting stronger and stronger. Sooner or later, we will be sucked in! We must find the source of the suction and destroy it!"
General Lin frowned. "The source? There's no time to find it now! Save your life first!"
The two refused to give in to each other and the atmosphere was tense.
Ding Chen held General Lin with one hand and Ying Feng with the other, feeling the pull of the two forces and feeling extremely anxious.
Xiaoxuan's face was pale. She held Yingfeng's hand tightly, but she couldn't say a word.
The white-haired wise man stroked his long beard and said thoughtfully, "In my opinion, this suction force is not ordinary. It is probably caused by some powerful formation."
Mr. Qinglian was making hand gestures and muttering to himself, as if he was calculating something.
Ah Hu was already so frightened that his face turned pale. He tightly grasped General Lin's hand and trembled all over.
"Ah! My sword!" A villager exclaimed, and the sword in his hand was pulled by the suction force, flew out of his hand, and disappeared into the crack in an instant.
Soon after, more and more objects were sucked into the crack. Trees, rocks, and even the soil on the ground began to fly and rushed towards the crack that swallowed everything.
"Oh no! The ground is about to collapse!" exclaimed Master Qinglian.
At this critical moment, Xiaoxuan's hand subconsciously touched a brocade bag on her waist...
"Wait..." Xiaoxuan's weak voice was half swallowed by the strong wind, but a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.
Xiaoxuan's fingers were tightly gripping the brocade bag, and her fingertips were turning white.
She took a deep breath and opened the sachet tremblingly.
A crystal clear bead lay quietly inside, emitting a soft light.
This bead was exactly what she got from a mysterious place. At that time, she only felt that it was full of spiritual energy, but she didn't know what its magical use was.
At this moment, an inexplicable feeling surged in her heart, as if this bead was the key to resisting this suction.
"This is... the Wind-Fixing Bead!" the white-haired sage recognized the bead's origins at a glance and exclaimed, "Legend has it that the Wind-Fixing Bead can stabilize the world and even mountains and rivers. I never thought it actually exists!"
Xiaoxuan didn't have time to think and raised the Wind-Fixing Pearl high.
The beads emitted a dazzling light, forming a protective barrier that enveloped everyone.
The terrifying suction force hit the barrier like waves hitting rocks, causing ripples but unable to shake it at all.
Everyone suddenly felt the pressure relieved and their breathing became much smoother.
"It worked!" General Lin shouted in surprise, "We're saved!"
Ding Chen hugged Xiaoxuan tightly and kissed her on the forehead: "You always save us at the most critical moment."
Xiaoxuan lowered her head shyly, leaning in Ding Chen's arms, her face flushed.
Yingfeng looked at the two of them, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
He walked to the edge of the barrier and carefully observed how the barrier fought against the suction.
Suddenly, his face changed and he said in a deep voice: "Not good! This suction..." The suction suddenly increased, and fine cracks began to appear on the protective barrier, spreading like a spider web.
The dazzling light gradually dimmed, as if it would shatter at any time.
"Oh no! The Wind-Fixing Bead is about to collapse!" exclaimed the white-haired wise man.
Ding Chen, General Lin and Ying Feng looked at each other and saw determination in each other's eyes.
Ding Chen clenched his fists, his muscles tensed, and a surge of power surged in his body.
He roared angrily and punched the all-consuming crack. The wind from his fist whistled, carrying an unmatched momentum.
General Lin drew the long sword from his waist, the sword flashed with cold light, and the sharp sword energy shot straight into the sky.
He shouted loudly and swung a sharp sword light, slashing towards the crack.
Yingfeng's figure flickered like a ghost, and with a flash of cold light in his hand, several darts broke through the air and shot towards the crack with a sharp sound of breaking wind.
However, the full-strength attack of these three people was like a drop in the ocean, and had no effect on the crack at all.
The suction force became even stronger, and the cracks in the barrier grew larger.
At this critical moment, Ah Hu suddenly saw a huge stone next to him, which was more than one person tall.
A glint of determination flashed in his eyes, and he roared, pushing the boulder into the crack with all his might.
The boulder moved slowly, and then under the pull of the suction, it flew quickly towards the crack.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the boulder was sucked into the crack and disappeared.
At the moment when the boulder was sucked in, the terrifying suction force suddenly stagnated, as if it was blocked by something.
The cracks on the barrier stopped spreading, and the light became bright again.
The white-haired wise man's eyes lit up. In this brief pause, he seemed to have discovered some pattern.
He carefully observed the changes in the cracks, muttering to himself and constantly calculating.
"Got it!" the white-haired wise man suddenly shouted, "I know what to do! Everyone, follow my instructions and move according to the specific rhythm and direction!"
Everyone did not dare to delay and immediately began to move according to the instructions of the white-haired wise man.
Their steps were staggered and their directions changed, as if they were performing a strange dance.
As they moved, the terrifying suction actually began to weaken, and the barrier gradually stabilized.
"That's it! Keep going!" the white-haired wise man shouted excitedly.
A glimmer of hope ignited in everyone's hearts, and they moved even harder.
However, at this moment, Ying Feng's expression suddenly changed. He turned his head and looked into the distance, whispering, "Someone is coming..."
