The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

Xiao Hong's cheeks were slightly red. She pointed at a symbol on the stone tablet and said, "I don't think this symbol represents..." Before she finished her words, the symbol on the stone tablet suddenly flashed, and an inexplicable power emanated from the stone tablet...

Xiaohong's voice came to an abrupt halt, and the symbol on the stone tablet suddenly burst into a dazzling black light. A cold force surged out like a tide, sweeping across the entire secret room in an instant.

"Ah!" Master Xing screamed and was the first to be hit by the dark power. He covered his chest in pain, his face turned pale in an instant, and his body trembled constantly.

The power of darkness brings a suffocating sense of oppression, entangled with everyone like a thorn in the flesh.

Ms. Mo groaned, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. She clenched her teeth and endured the severe pain.

The man in white protected Xiaohong behind him and used his body to resist the invasion of darkness. His face turned pale and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

Captain Lei felt a chill rushing straight to his head, as if his soul was about to be frozen.

Master Xing curled up on the ground in pain, the power of darkness constantly eroding his consciousness.

He felt as if his soul was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, constantly pulling and tearing it apart.

Hallucinations appeared before his eyes and ghostly whispers echoed in his ears. Those voices drilled into his mind like poisonous snakes and made him feel extremely terrified.

His consciousness gradually became blurred, everything in front of him became distorted, and his body lost control and could only twitch weakly.

In the darkness, some ghostly shadows vaguely emerged, making sharp and piercing cries, like evil spirits from hell, which made people shudder.

These dark ghosts pounced on everyone with bared fangs and claws. Their target was not the body, but the soul.

"Protect yourself!" the man in white shouted in a low voice and drew out his sword, the sword flashing with a sharp cold light.

He swung his sword and chopped the approaching dark ghosts into pieces one by one.

Ms. Mo also drew her sword and fought side by side with the man in white. Her sword skills were sharp and her sword energy was as strong as a rainbow, which forced the dark ghost back.

However, the number of dark ghosts increased, and their attacks became more and more fierce.

The man in white and Ms. Mo gradually felt that they were overwhelmed. They all had scars on their bodies and their souls seemed to be torn apart.

Captain Lei looked at the two people fighting hard and felt extremely anxious.

He wanted to go forward to help, but found that his body was bound by dark power and he could not move.

He gritted his teeth and tried to gather his strength to break free.

The dark ghost's screams became sharper and more piercing, as if it was going to devour everyone's souls.

Everyone felt dizzy, and everything in front of them became blurry...

Captain Lei suddenly widened his eyes. He saw a ray of golden light overflowing from his palm. This golden light seemed to have a natural restraining power on the dark ghost.

He had an idea in his mind and immediately circulated the internal energy. The golden light suddenly became brighter, illuminating the entire secret room like a small sun.

The dark ghosts screamed miserably and retreated as if they had met their nemesis.

"It's the power of light! Dark ghosts are afraid of light!" Master Lei shouted excitedly. He condensed the golden light into a beam of light and shot it directly at the densest group of dark ghosts.

Wherever the beam of light reached, the dark ghosts melted like ice and snow, turning into wisps of black smoke and disappearing.

"Great!" The man in white and Ms. Mo were cheered up. They immediately circulated their true energy and released their own light power.

With the combined efforts of the three, golden light surged out like a tide, illuminating the entire secret room as if it were daytime.

The dark ghosts let out wails, and eventually all dissipated and turned into nothing.

The dark power also dissipated, Master Xing groaned in pain and slowly opened his eyes.

He looked around blankly and found that he was still in the secret room, but the darkness had faded and light had returned.

He struggled to stand up, and when he saw everyone's concerned eyes, a warm feeling surged in his heart.

Everyone continued to decipher the stone tablet. With the completion of the last piece of the puzzle, the words and patterns on the stone tablet finally appeared clearly in front of everyone.

The stone tablet records an ancient prophecy: when darkness falls, light will guide the brave to find hidden treasures and a way to save the world.

The location of the treasure and the method to save the world are clearly engraved on the stone tablet.

"We succeeded!" Ms. Mo said excitedly, with a slight tremor in her voice.

Everyone cheered and their excitement was beyond words.

Not only did they find the treasure, they also found a way to save the world. It was as if they had become heroes of the world.

Master Xing also joined the celebrating crowd. He clenched his fists excitedly, feeling proud that he could be part of this great adventure.

As everyone was celebrating, the man in white suddenly fell silent. He stared closely at a symbol on the stone tablet, with a complicated look in his eyes...

He slowly stretched out his hand, touched the symbol, and whispered: "Xiaohong..."

The man in white hugged Xiao Hong tightly, and she rested her head gently on his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.

They have experienced the test of life and death together, and they cherish each other more and are more determined to be together forever.

The companions around them looked at them with envy and blessed their love.

Miss Mo and Captain Lei high-fived each other, their faces filled with joyful smiles. Their friendship became even deeper because of this adventure.

Master Xing looked at everyone, his heart filled with emotion. He felt proud to be a member of this team.

Everyone decided to follow the guidance of the stone tablet to find the treasure and save the world.

With firm belief, they strode out of the ruins and met new challenges.

The sunlight shone on them, lengthening their figures, as if cheering for them.

The breeze blows, bringing the fragrance of flowers, birds sing happily on the branches, and the whole world is full of hope.

"Let's go!" the man in white said firmly, his eyes looking into the distance.

"To save the world!" Everyone shouted in unison, their voices echoing in the valley for a long time.

The man in white suddenly stopped and his eyes fell on an inconspicuous symbol on the stone tablet.

"and many more……"

The sunlight shone on everyone, casting long shadows. With a firm belief in saving the world, they strode out on the treasure hunt.

The mountain breeze, carrying the fragrance of grass and trees, brushed across my cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness, but it could not dispel the high enthusiasm in everyone's hearts.

However, as they went deeper, the surrounding environment gradually became strange.

The originally lush and green trees began to become twisted and strange, like demons with bared fangs and claws, and the air was filled with an unsettling damp smell.

The road under my feet was no longer flat, but became rugged and covered with sharp gravel. Every step made a creaking sound, like the growl of a wild beast.

The man in white looked around with a sharp gaze. His sword was tightly held in his hand, making a clanging sound of metal collision.

There was a hint of coldness between Ms. Mo's brows. She stared straight ahead, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.

Captain Lei looked around, his rugged face full of vigilance. His strong arms were slightly bulging, as if he could burst out with amazing power at any time.

The smiles on everyone's faces gradually disappeared, replaced by solemn expressions, and a tense atmosphere spread among them.

Master Xing followed closely behind everyone, taking small and quick steps, as if he was afraid of being left alone.

He looked around from time to time.
Following the guidance of the stone tablet, everyone thought they would reach the treasure place smoothly. However, they came to a seemingly ordinary village.

Smoke rose from the kitchen and the sounds of chickens and dogs could be heard, which was completely different from the treasure trove full of traps they had imagined.

The trees around the village are not as weird as those on the road, but lush and full of vitality.

The scene before them was completely different from what they had imagined before, which made everyone feel a little confused.

"Is this the location of the treasure?" Captain Lei scratched his head, frowning with confusion on his face. "The stone tablet's guidance should be correct." Lady Mo frowned and scanned the houses in the village with sharp eyes, trying to find some clues.

The man in white slowly put down the sword in his hand, looked around, and seemed to be thinking about something.

They looked at each other and fell into silence for a moment, with a feeling of confusion spreading among them.

"How about we go into the village and take a look?" Xiaohong suddenly broke the silence. Her clear voice carried a hint of unquestionable firmness. There was no trace of timidity in her eyes as she looked towards the village.

Everyone stepped into the village cautiously, and there was a strange smell in the air.

Unlike the hospitable villagers they had imagined, the villagers here had cold eyes and hostile expressions, as if they were invaders.

As they went deeper, more and more villagers came out of their houses and surrounded them, the hoes, sticks and other farm tools in their hands reflecting cold light.

"Who are you? What are you doing in our village?" A burly villager with a fat face shouted loudly. His voice rang in everyone's ears like thunder, making their eardrums buzz.

"We are just passing by here and have no ill intentions." The man in white explained in a deep voice, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.

"Passing by? Who are you kidding! You outsiders must be here for the treasures of our village!" another villager screamed, his tone full of hostility.

"Treasure? We don't know what treasure it is." Ms. Mo frowned and spoke in a cold tone.

"Stop pretending! You robbers, don't even think about taking anything from our village!" The villagers became more and more agitated, and their shouts rose one after another, like waves, almost drowning everyone.

Young Master Xing turned pale with fright and hid behind Captain Lei tremblingly. Captain Lei patted him on the shoulder and signaled him not to be afraid.

"We really have no ill intentions. We just want to stay here for one night." Xiao Hong explained softly, trying to allay the villagers' doubts.

"Stay overnight? Humph! Who knows what you are up to!" The villagers didn't believe their explanation at all and held the farm tools even tighter in their hands.

The quarrel became louder and louder, and the tense atmosphere was like a taut string ready to explode at any moment.

Seeing this, the man in white stepped forward and said loudly: "Since you don't believe us, then we will accept your test and prove our innocence!"

After these words were spoken, the villagers' shouting paused for a moment, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"What test?" the man in white asked in a deep voice, his eyes as sharp as torches, staring directly at the villagers.

An old man, leaning on a cane, slowly walked out of the crowd, his cloudy eyes gleaming with brilliance, "If you want to prove your innocence, you must..." The old man paused, and his hoarse voice echoed in the silent village, "...defeat the warriors of our village!"

The village chief, leaning on a cane, slowly walked to the center of the crowd. He pointed his dry finger at a burly man who was as strong as an iron tower. "This is our village's warrior - Ah Man! As long as you can defeat him, we will believe that you are innocent!"

Ah Man was nearly nine feet tall, with muscles all over his body, as strong as cast steel.

He was shirtless, revealing his bronze skin, which was covered with hideous scars, as if telling of his past battle experiences.

Around his thick neck hung a necklace of animal teeth, which trembled slightly with his breathing and made low colliding sounds, like the growl of a wild beast.

He held a huge iron hammer in his hand. The hammer head was as big as a millstone and covered with rust, but it exuded a terrifying murderous aura.

Faced with such a powerful opponent, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

Miss Mo and Captain Lei looked at each other, both of them showing a solemn look.

"I'll do it!" Miss Mo stepped forward first. She drew the long sword from her waist. The sword reflected the cold light in the sun, like a flash of lightning cutting through the sky.

"And me!" Leader Lei followed closely behind, raising the double axes in his hands high. The axe blades flashed a terrifying light in the sunlight, like two fangs, ready to tear the enemy apart at any time.

The battle is imminent!
Ah Man swung the huge hammer in his hand and smashed it at Miss Mo and Master Lei like a storm.

The huge hammer cut through the air, making a deafening whistling sound.

Miss Mo and Captain Lei did not dare to take the attack head-on and could only dodge with their agile movements.

Ah Man's strength was incredible. Each of his attacks was as powerful as a tidal wave. Deep pits were smashed into the ground and gravel flew everywhere.

Although Miss Mo and Captain Lei are both highly skilled in martial arts, they gradually feel overwhelmed by Ah Man's violent attacks.

Seeing this, the surrounding villagers cheered and cheered for A Man.

Their shouts came like a tide, making everyone's eardrums buzz.

At this moment, the man in white suddenly said, "Although he is powerful, he lacks flexibility and his attack speed is slow. You can take advantage of this!"

When Miss Mo and Captain Lei heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.

They immediately changed their tactics and stopped dodging blindly. Instead, they seized the gaps between Ah Man's attacks, using their speed to defeat the slow, and using their flexible bodies to attack Ah Man's weaknesses.

Although Ah Man was powerful, he was slow and could not keep up with the speed of Ms. Mo and Captain Lei.

Soon, he had several more wounds on his body, and blood flowed down the wounds, staining the ground red.

Finally, under the joint attack of Miss Mo and Captain Lei, Ah Man fell to the ground with a bang, and the huge hammer in his hand fell to the side with a dull sound.

When everyone saw this, they were immediately excited and cheers resounded through the sky.

The villagers looked at Ah Man lying on the ground.
"We won!" Xiaohong excitedly threw herself into the arms of the man in white, with a happy smile on her face.

The man in white gently stroked Xiaohong's hair, but turned his gaze to the village chief, "Now, do you believe us?"

The village chief looked at the man in white, his eyes flickering, "..."

The man in white gently stroked Xiaohong's smooth hair, and Xiaohong gently leaned her head on his chest, her eyes full of love, and a sweet atmosphere flowed between the two.

The air around seemed to become warmer and filled with a faint fragrance.

Everyone felt this deep love and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Miss Mo and Captain Lei smiled at each other, their eyes revealing a tacit understanding of mutual respect. Years of fighting side by side have established a deep friendship between them.

Master Xing also breathed a sigh of relief, his tense nerves finally relaxed, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

After a long silence, the village chief finally spoke. His real treasure was not here, but in the cave behind the village.

"He pointed to a towering mountain behind the village and said in a low voice, "But I want to remind you that the cave is full of traps and dangers. It is much more dangerous than Ah Man. Are you sure you want to continue moving forward?"

The man in white nodded without hesitation, "Now that we have embarked on this journey, we will not give up easily. No matter how dangerous the road ahead is, we will move forward bravely!"

"That's right, we will definitely find the treasure and save the world!" Xiaohong held the hand of the man in white tightly with a firm look in her eyes.

"Okay! Since you are so determined, I will not stop you." The village chief sighed.

Everyone thanked the village chief and turned to walk towards the cave.

The entrance to the cave is hidden in the dense woods. An eerie atmosphere emanates from the cave, making people shudder.

A few crows were circling above the cave entrance, making shrill cries, as if foreshadowing the coming of danger.

Everyone stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the dark and deep passage inside, and an inexplicable sense of fear surged in their hearts...

The man in white clenched the sword in his hand, took a deep breath, and stepped into the cave first.

The entrance of the cave is like the mouth of a giant beast, dark and deep, with no bottom in sight.

A cold wind whistled out of the cave, carrying with it a nauseating smell of decay.

Everyone stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the unknown darkness, feeling uneasy.

"This cave... looks creepy." Master Xing swallowed, his voice trembling slightly.

He subconsciously touched the sword at his waist, and his palms were slightly sweaty.

Ms. Mo snorted coldly and glanced at the cave entrance sharply, as if she could see through the darkness. "What are you afraid of? We are here to look for treasure, not to die!" She clenched the long whip in her hand, and the whip flashed with a cold light.

Xiaohong tightly held the arm of the man in white, her face was a little pale, but she still tried to force a smile, "I believe we will definitely find the treasure!" The man in white gently patted her hand, giving her silent comfort. (End of this chapter)
