Chapter 323 Swords Clash, Enveloped in Mystery
As Huanmo and the others gazed at the figure emanating a powerful dark aura, their tension instantly intensified to its peak. The surrounding mist seemed to be affected by this aura, thickening even further, like layers of black veils tightly enveloping them. The mysterious figure, shrouded in black mist, appeared and disappeared, obscuring its true form. A sense of oppression washed over them, making their breathing rapid.
Huanmo gripped the sword in his hand, which emitted a mysterious light. The blade shimmered with an eerie luster in the darkness, seemingly containing boundless power. His palms were slightly sweaty, his heart pounding in his chest as he frantically searched for a solution. "This enemy's aura is far stronger than any I've encountered before. It seems today's battle will be extremely difficult. But no matter what, I cannot back down. I must protect everyone," Huanmo silently encouraged himself, his eyes revealing unwavering determination.
Yi Chen's expression was grave, the veins on his forehead bulging slightly. He said in a low voice, "This aura is too terrifying; we're afraid we'll have a hard time resisting it." The woman in white bit her lip, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure: "No matter what, we can't just sit here and wait to die. We must try our best." Wan Ru and the old man also gripped their weapons tightly, ready for battle. Their expressions were serious, and they knew this would be a life-or-death battle.
The mysterious figure let out a low laugh, the sound seemingly coming from all directions, making everyone's eardrums ache. "You few ants think you can escape from my grasp? Today, none of you will leave here alive!" As soon as the words fell, the figure flashed, like a black lightning bolt, rushing towards Huanmo and the others.
Huanmo shouted, "Watch out!" At the same time, he swiftly swung his sword, slashing towards the figure. The blade scraped against the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound, and a dazzling light flashed as it attacked the figure. However, the figure easily dodged Huanmo's attack by simply sidestepping. Immediately afterward, a black energy ball condensed in his hand and he threw it towards Huanmo.
Huanmo quickly dodged to the side, the energy ball grazing past his clothes and leaving a large crater in the ground. Huanmo was startled, thinking to himself, "This enemy's strength is indeed not to be underestimated. Their attack is so powerful; we must be even more careful." He quickly adjusted his stance and charged towards the figure again.
Yi Chen and the woman in white also unleashed their spells. Yi Chen chanted incantations, his hands moving rapidly in the air, and beams of blue light shot out from his hands like arrows towards the figure. The woman in white clasped her hands together, softly chanting, and a white light screen unfolded before her. The light screen then transformed into countless tiny light blades, flying towards the figure.
The mysterious figure snorted coldly, waved his hands, and the surrounding black mist rapidly condensed, forming a black barrier that blocked all of Yi Chen and the woman in white's attacks. Then, he flashed behind Yi Chen and raised his hand to strike Yi Chen's back.
Yi Chen was startled and quickly turned around to try to block the figure's attack. However, the figure was too fast, and Yi Chen had no time to react. He felt a powerful force strike his back, and he was sent flying, crashing heavily to the ground.
Seeing this, the woman in white was greatly alarmed and rushed towards Yi Chen to check on his injuries. Just then, the mysterious figure seized the opportunity to attack the woman in white. Huan Mo, witnessing this, tensed up and shouted, "Be careful!" He quickly rushed towards the woman in white, raising his sword high and slashing at the figure.
The figure had no choice but to abandon its attack on the woman in white, dodging Huanmo's sword. Huanmo seized the opportunity to pull the woman in white behind it, watching the mysterious figure warily. "Are you alright?" Huanmo asked in a low voice. The woman in white nodded slightly, her eyes filled with gratitude: "I'm fine, thank you."
Huanmo and the others were locked in a stalemate with the mysterious figure. They exchanged blows, each side launching attacks and defenses, but neither could gain the upper hand. Huanmo gazed at the mysterious figure, thinking to himself, "This can't go on. Our stamina is constantly being depleted, while the enemy shows no signs of fatigue. We must find his weakness to turn the tide of the battle."
Just then, Huanmo suddenly noticed that the black mist surrounding the mysterious figure would briefly fluctuate each time he launched an attack. A thought struck Huanmo, and he thought to himself, "This black mist might be the source of his power, or it might be his weakness. If we can disrupt this black mist, we might be able to find an opportunity to attack him."
Huanmo shared his idea with his companions, who all nodded in agreement. Yichen said, "I'll try to disrupt this black mist with my magic." As he spoke, he formed a hand seal and chanted incantations. A powerful stream of air surged from his hands and blew towards the black mist surrounding the mysterious figure.
The mysterious figure seemed to sense Yi Chen's intentions, its expression changing as it quickly strengthened its control over the black mist. However, Yi Chen's magic was extremely powerful, and the black mist still fluctuated. Seeing this, Huan Mo was overjoyed and shouted, "Now!" He brandished his sword and charged towards the mysterious figure.
Just as Huanmo was about to approach the mysterious figure, the figure suddenly roared, and black mist rapidly condensed, forming a powerful black barrier that blocked Huanmo from entering. Huanmo's sword struck the barrier with a loud bang, and he felt a powerful recoil, which sent him staggering backward.
Huanmo felt a pang of frustration, but he didn't give up. He gazed at the mysterious figure, a determined look in his eyes: "We won't admit defeat easily; we'll definitely find a way to defeat you!"
Just then, the mysterious figure suddenly spoke, "You think you can defeat me like this? You're delusional! I think you'd better surrender obediently, and maybe I can give you a quick death."
Ignoring the mysterious figure's provocation, Huanmo and the others regrouped, preparing for a new attack. However, at that moment, the surrounding mist suddenly began to churn violently, and the ground began to tremble. Huanmo was startled, wondering to himself, "What's going on? Could there be some other unexpected event?"
Suddenly, a mysterious voice echoed from the mist, a voice that seemed to come from ancient times, filled with mystery and majesty: "Your destiny will change at this moment..."
Where does this mysterious voice come from? What does it mean by the change in destiny? Can Huanmo and the others defeat this powerful and mysterious figure and escape this perilous place? Everything is shrouded in mystery, waiting for them to uncover the truth.
