Chapter 363 Dawn and Gloom Intertwined
The dark storm, like a runaway prehistoric beast, relentlessly pounded the shield formed by Huanmo and the others. The immense power caused the surrounding space to crackle and creak, as if it were about to collapse at any moment. The light on the shield flickered even more intensely under the ravages of the storm, threatening to extinguish at any instant.
Huanmo felt his strength waning, his legs trembling slightly under the pressure. "Could it be that we ultimately cannot escape this calamity?" A flicker of despair crossed his mind, but looking at his equally exhausted yet resolute companion beside him, he forcefully suppressed it. "No, we've held on this long; we absolutely cannot give up now!"
Yi Chen gripped the broken gun tightly, the barrel bending slightly from the force. Veins bulged on his arm, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, yet his eyes remained steadfastly fixed on the dark storm ahead. "Even if I die, I will die with dignity!" he vowed silently, the broken gun in his hand faintly emitting a final glow, seemingly echoing his resolve.
The white-clad woman's hair flew wildly in the storm. She gripped the ribbon tightly with both hands, weaving it into her shield to enhance its defenses. Despite her exhaustion, a resolute glint remained in her eyes. "We've been through so much together, how can we fall here?" she silently encouraged herself and her companions.
The mysterious figure, his face as pale as snow, continuously channeled power into the shield while frantically searching for a countermeasure. "The power of this dark storm exceeds our expectations; conventional resistance will likely be insufficient for its duration." He knew he had to devise a surprising and decisive strategy, or they would all be annihilated in this storm.
Just as the shield was about to shatter, the mysterious figure's eyes suddenly lit up. He realized that although the dark storm was powerful, its power flow was not without flaws. "Phantom Ink, guide the artifact and attack the center where the storm's power converges! That's the core of the storm. As long as it's destroyed, the storm will dissipate!" the mysterious figure shouted. His voice was somewhat weak amidst the howling storm, but Phantom Ink still heard it clearly.
Huanmo was overjoyed and immediately focused his mind, attempting to guide the power of the divine artifact. However, under the powerful interference of the dark storm, the artifact's light became erratic, making it difficult to accurately lock onto the storm's core. "Damn it, this storm's interference is too great!" Huanmo was extremely anxious, large beads of sweat sliding down his cheeks. He constantly adjusted the artifact's power output, trying to break through the interference.
Seeing Huanmo's predicament, Yichen took a deep breath and, with the last of his strength, hurled the broken spear towards the dark storm. The spear transformed into a streak of blue light, hurtling straight towards the storm's core. "Huanmo, I'll clear a path for you!" Yichen shouted, his voice filled with unwavering resolve.
The broken spear struggled forward through the storm, relentlessly battered by its power, yet stubbornly continuing its advance towards its target. Just as it was about to reach the storm's core, a beam of black energy shot out from within, striking the spear. It was instantly blasted away, its light extinguished completely.
"Yi Chen!" Huan Mo and the woman in white exclaimed simultaneously. Yi Chen's face turned deathly pale, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. But he still gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry about me, Huan Mo, keep trying!"
Huanmo felt a surge of emotion. He fought back tears and focused his mind once more to guide the divine artifact. This time, he cleared his mind of all distractions and completely merged his consciousness with the artifact. As if sensing his resolve, the artifact suddenly shone brightly, breaking through the interference of the dark storm, and a dazzling beam of light shot straight towards the heart of the storm.
The moment the light struck the heart of the storm, the dark storm, as if its soul had been ripped away, began to dissipate rapidly. The black, human-faced dragon let out a roar of resentment, its body gradually becoming ethereal as the storm dissipated.
"We did it!" the woman in white shouted excitedly, her face beaming with the joy of surviving a calamity. Huanmo and Yichen exchanged a smile; although they were both exhausted, their eyes were filled with relief. The mysterious figure nodded slightly, a smile also appearing on his face.
However, when the dark storm completely dissipated and the surrounding environment gradually became clear, they discovered that the original space had undergone tremendous changes. The stone pillar that had stood in the center of the lake was completely shattered, and the black lake had disappeared in the battle, replaced by a desolate land covered with huge cracks, from which black smoke rose from time to time.
Not far ahead of them, a huge black stone gate appeared, covered with strange runes that shimmered with a faint light, as if telling ancient secrets.
Huanmo and the others slowly walked to the stone door, looking at the unexpectedly appearing door with a sense of doubt. "How did this stone door appear? What is hidden behind it?" Huanmo asked with a frown, a hint of wariness in his eyes.
Yi Chen examined the stone door and said, "No matter what's behind it, it seems we have no way back. The battle just now has exhausted too much of our strength. If we want to leave this space, perhaps the only way is to find a way out from behind this door."
The woman in white nodded slightly and said, "But we must be careful. This stone door exudes an eerie aura, and no one knows what awaits us behind it."
The mysterious figure silently gazed at the runes on the stone door, seemingly deep in thought. After a while, he slowly said, "I've never seen these runes before, but they seem to contain some kind of powerful sealing force. Perhaps, the key to unlocking all the mysteries of this space lies hidden behind this door."
Just as everyone was discussing, the runes on the stone gate suddenly shone brightly, and a powerful suction force emanated from the stone gate, pulling Huanmo and the others towards it.
Will Huanmo and the others be able to maintain their balance under this sudden suction? What secrets and dangers lie hidden behind the stone gate? What challenges will they face? Everything is shrouded in mystery, waiting for them to uncover the truth…
