Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou

"I'll deal with the two on the left, you guys split up," Qin Yang swung his giant axe and rushed towards the statue on the left.

"Okay, I'll come to support you," Su Yu pulled the bowstring and shot an arrow, hitting the eye of a statue.

"I'll go to the right," Liu Qing cast a wind spell, trying to control the statue on the right.

"Li Feng, you stay in the middle and give us blood," Lin Feng ordered.

Several people performed their duties and began to fight fiercely with the statues. Although the statues looked bulky, they moved very quickly and had strong attack power.

"These things are too troublesome!" Qin Yang shouted. The giant axe chopped on the statue, leaving only a shallow mark.

"We must find their weaknesses," Liu Qing analyzed calmly.

"Let me take a look." Li Feng took a few steps forward and carefully observed every detail of the statue. "Their bodies are made of hard stone, but the joints are relatively fragile."

"Attack the joints!" Lin Feng understood Li Feng's meaning and quickly adjusted his sword skills, concentrating on attacking the joints of the statue.

Su Yu fired several arrows, each of which hit the joints of the statue accurately, causing the statue's movements to slow down. Liu Qing's wind magic also took effect, gradually weakening the statue's ability to move.

"That's it, concentrate your firepower!" Qin Yang swung the giant axe and hit a statue hard on its joint. The statue made a dull sound, and its body broke into two halves and fell to the ground.

"It works!" Liu Qing said excitedly.

After a fierce battle, they finally defeated all the statues. At this time, a light shone from the center of the altar, and an ancient crystal appeared in the air.

"What is this?" Su Yu asked puzzledly.

"This crystal should be very important," Liu Qing stepped forward and looked at the crystal carefully, "It may be related to the secret here."

Lin Feng picked up the crystal and felt a strong force: "Let's take it back first, maybe we can solve the mystery here."

The few of them put the crystals into their backpacks and continued to explore deeper. At the end of the passage was another stone door, which was engraved with more complex runes and emitted a faint purple light.

"This door looks more complicated than the previous ones," Li Feng said, "We have to find a way to open it."

"Let me try," Liu Qing walked forward, closed her eyes, and felt the subtle fluctuations coming from the stone gate.

"I think we need to put the crystal somewhere," Liu Qing slowly opened her eyes and pointed to a small groove on the stone door.

Lin Feng placed the crystal in the groove, and the stone door suddenly emitted a dazzling light, then slowly opened.

"It seems to be correct," Liu Qing said with a smile, "Let's go in and take a look."

Several people passed through the stone door and came to a more mysterious space, which was covered with ancient murals, depicting strange patterns, which seemed to be telling a long-ago story.

"This place is incredible," Su Yu exclaimed, "There seems to be something hidden in those murals."

"We have to be careful," Lin Feng warned, "We don't know what dangers are lurking here."

"Yes, we must be extra careful," Liu Qing nodded, "Let's keep moving forward."

Several people continued to move forward. Suddenly, a deep voice came from all directions: "It's unexpected that you can find this place."

Everyone immediately became alert and looked around for the source of the sound.

"Who's there?" Lin Feng asked loudly.

“Haha,” the voice sounded again, “you will soon know my identity.”

“Haha,” the voice sounded again, “you will soon know my identity.”

Everyone looked around vigilantly, but no one was in sight. Qin Yang clenched the giant axe in his hand and whispered, "Everyone stay alert. This thing is obviously not an ordinary creature."

"It's hidden very cleverly," Liu Qing reminded in a low voice, "We have to be extra careful."

Suddenly, the temperature of the entire space dropped sharply, and a chilly atmosphere filled the air. The ancient murals on the wall seemed to come alive, emitting a faint light. Then, a tall figure walked out from a dark corner, wearing a black robe, with eyes flashing a faint green light.

"Welcome to my territory," the demon said in a low voice, with a hideous smile on his lips.

"Are you the guardian here?" Lin Feng stepped forward and asked calmly.

“Guardian? Haha,” the devil sneered, “I am the master here, the one who controls everything.”

"What is your purpose?" Liu Qing asked, wind magic already condensed in her hands, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.

"Purpose?" The devil sneered, "It's simple. I want to devour your souls and become a more powerful being."

"Don't even think about it!" Qin Yang shouted angrily, waving his giant axe and rushing towards the demon, but the moment his body touched the demon's surroundings, he was bounced back by an invisible force and fell heavily to the ground.

"Stupid humans, you can never be my opponent." The devil looked at them with disdain, slowly opened his arms, and a black energy surged out of his body, transforming into several dark chains that quickly wrapped around everyone.

"Get out of the way!" Li Feng shouted, casting a healing spell to heal Qin Yang's injuries. At the same time, Lin Feng drew his sword and Su Yu drew his bowstring, all ready for battle.

Several dark chains came up like lightning, binding Lin Feng and Su Yu tightly. The chains seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, making them unable to move.

"You can't escape from my palm." The devil said triumphantly, walking towards Lin Feng and Su Yu step by step.

"Let us go!" Lin Feng gritted his teeth and struggled, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free from the chains. "Don't waste your energy, you can't escape." The devil reached out and gently stroked Lin Feng's cheek, his eyes full of evil light.

At this moment, Liu Qing's eyes flashed with determination, and she suddenly jumped up, and the wind spell burst out instantly. A gust of wind swept over and hit the demon fiercely. Although it did not cause obvious damage to it, it temporarily forced it to retreat a few steps.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Feng quickly chanted a spell, and a bright light appeared between his hands, shining on the chains on Lin Feng and Su Yu. The dark chains made a series of harsh sounds, and were finally completely purified and disappeared by the light.

"Retreat quickly!" Li Feng shouted, and the three of them hurriedly evacuated to a safe distance.

The demon regained his footing and glared at them gloomily. "You dare to attack me? I will make you pay the price!"

"Everyone, attack together!" Lin Feng shouted, and rushed forward. His long sword turned into a flash of lightning, slashing accurately at the demon's heart.

"Stupid!" The demon sneered and stretched out his hands to block Lin Feng's sword. At the same time, the black energy around him increased sharply, forming a huge shield to resist Lin Feng's attack.

Su Yu's arrows rained down like raindrops, each of them was extremely accurate, but due to the lack of power, they only caused tiny cracks in the demon's defense. Liu Qing's wind spells also kept attacking, but they also had little effect.

"Your efforts are in vain. I will soon become invincible." The devil sneered, and suddenly waved his hands. A terrifying force surged out, forming a huge black hole, which began to frantically devour the surrounding light and air.

"What the hell is this!" Qin Yang roared, swinging his giant axe towards the black hole. However, the moment the axe blade came into contact with the black hole, the giant axe began to tremble, as if it would be swallowed up at any time.

"We must interrupt its spellcasting!" Liu Qing shouted anxiously, using all her strength to cast a spell in an attempt to disperse the black hole. However, the force was too strong, and she could hardly get close to it.

"Let's attack together with our greatest strength!" Lin Feng said firmly, the sword in his hand shining brightly, as if all the strength was gathered at one point.

Others also took out their own special skills: Qin Yang raised the giant axe above his head and gathered all his strength; Su Yu aimed at the core of the demon; Li Feng cast an unprecedentedly powerful healing spell.

The power of the four people combined together and rushed towards the devil like a huge wave.

At the moment when the forces were about to collide, the demon suddenly raised his head and let out a shrill roar, and the whole person seemed to have undergone a drastic change. The originally dark green eyes turned blood red, the black cloak moved without wind, and the whole body exuded a stronger evil aura.

"You tiny lives, do you think you can defeat the great me? How ridiculous..." Before the devil could finish his words, the attacks of the four people had already hit his vital points.

With a deafening roar, the entire underground palace shook violently. The ground cracked into countless deep cracks, dust flew everywhere, and the vision was blurred for a while.

After the smoke and dust cleared, everyone realized that the demon had disappeared, leaving only rubble and broken chains on the ground to prove the fierce battle that had just taken place.

"Are we really defeated?" Li Feng asked, panting.

Lin Feng looked around vigilantly, but didn't see any movement. "Don't relax yet, keep looking for clues. This place still hides more secrets." He said, his eyes still firm.

"There seem to be more secrets hidden here." Su Yu looked around, with a hint of curiosity and vigilance in his tone.

"Yes," Lin Feng nodded in agreement, "We need to be more careful."

Several people walked forward cautiously. It was quiet all around, with only the sound of their footsteps on the gravel. Suddenly, Liu Qing stopped, frowned and said, "Do you feel an unusual breath?"

"You're right," Qin Yang also stopped, "There must be something else here."

Li Feng looked around and whispered a detection magic. In an instant, a beam of light condensed into a small ball in his hand and slowly floated away. Suddenly, the ball stopped and emitted a burst of rapid light.

"Found it!" Li Feng said, pointing to a shadowed place in front.

The group quickly approached the place and saw a small mechanism hidden on the wall with some complicated runes engraved on it. Liu Qing walked forward and studied the runes carefully: "This should be a door or a passage. As long as we unlock this mechanism..."

Before he finished speaking, the wall suddenly opened on its own, revealing a deep, dark path. A faint purple glow shone from inside, making people feel uneasy.

"Let's go in and take a look." Lin Feng took the lead, and several people entered the path one by one. Inside was a huge underground hall with a stone platform in the center, on which was placed an old book and a black crystal ball.

"What is that?" Su Yu looked at the items in confusion.

"It feels a little strange..." Liu Qing said vigilantly, "These things seem to have some kind of evil power."

As the men approached, an ominous aura filled the air. The black crystal ball began to glow, and a deep voice uttered, "Outsiders, since you have discovered my secret, you must accept the punishment of death!"

Along with the sound, the ground cracked open, and a group of strange black shadows emerged from the cracks. These creatures were pitch black, their eyes flashed red, and their hoarse cries were creepy.

"Are there new enemies?" Qin Yang waved his giant axe and blocked everyone. "No matter who it is, we will not give up easily!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he chopped fiercely, and several black shadows rushing in front were directly cut in half. The other strange creatures were not afraid of seeing this, and continued to attack frantically.

"Split up!" Lin Feng gave the order, and the long sword began to dance, shuttling through the dense crowd, looking for the enemy's flaws to counterattack. Su Yu pulled the bowstring and accurately shot the target in the distance; while Li Feng released a healing halo to protect everyone from being seriously injured. Liu Qing controlled the powerful wind to roll up the sand and form a protective barrier to resist the attack.

The battle was extremely fierce, and everyone tried their best, but they still couldn't hide their exhaustion. "We can't go on like this!" Liu Qing panted heavily, "We can't defeat so many enemies..."

At this time, Lin Feng noticed that the black crystal ball was releasing increasingly powerful energy fluctuations. "I wonder if it is the key to commanding them." As he said that, he ran in that direction. On the way, he was blocked by several enemies, but he repelled them one by one with his superb swordsmanship.

When he finally reached his destination, he drew his sword without hesitation and pierced the core of the crystal ball. Suddenly, the whole room shook violently, and those strange creatures fell down.

Soon after the crystal ball shattered, a figure emerged from the darkness.

"How dare you, stupid mortals, destroy my artifact!" A middle-aged man in a black robe and with a ferocious face appeared in front of everyone. His eyes flashed red and his whole body exuded a thick dark aura.

"Who are you?" Lin Feng asked sternly, still holding the sword tightly in his hand.

"I am the master here. You can call me 'Lord of Shadows'." The man sneered, "Do you think you can escape by destroying a small crystal ball?" (End of this chapter)
