As time went on, the atmosphere of the ceremony became increasingly eerie.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang held their breath. They knew they had to be careful. Any mistake could cause the entire village to fall into a deeper disaster.

"We have to find a way to interrupt this ceremony." Luo Chen said softly to Qingshuang.

Qingshuang nodded, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.

"I'll attract their attention, and you'll find a chance to destroy the altar."

Luo Chen hesitated for a moment. He knew this would be very dangerous, but he also understood that there was no better way.

"Okay, be careful."

Qingshuang took a deep breath, then suddenly jumped out from his hiding place, condensed a dazzling beam of spiritual power in his hand, and shot it straight at the group of men in black robes.

The men in black robes were startled by the sudden attack and turned to look at Qingshuang.

"Who is it?!" one of the men in black robes shouted angrily.

Luo Chen took the opportunity to quickly approach the altar from the other side. The tip of his sword began to tremble again, ready to deliver a fatal blow.

Qingshuang shuttled among the black-robed men, beams of spiritual power constantly flying among them, creating chaos.

She knew that her mission was to delay time as much as possible and create opportunities for Luo Chen.

"Don't let her run away!" another black-robed man ordered, and then several black-robed men began to besiege Qingshuang.

Luo Chen took the opportunity to rush to the altar. He raised his sword high, and the light on the tip of the sword had condensed to the extreme.

"break!"

With a loud shout, the light on the sword tip smashed towards the altar like a meteor.

The altar began to shake violently under the impact of the light, and the man in black robe screamed in fear.

Luo Chen's attack successfully interrupted the ceremony, and the cold aura dissipated instantly.

"No!" The leading black-robed man roared. He turned to look at Luo Chen, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness.

"You ignorant fools, you don't know what you have destroyed!" the man in black robe roared.

Luo Chen looked at him coldly, "The evil magic you are performing here will only bring disaster to innocent people."

The man in black robe sneered, "Disaster? This is just the beginning. You will soon understand how stupid your actions are."

Qingshuang had now gotten rid of the entanglement of the other men in black robes, and she quickly returned to Luo Chen.

"We have to get out of here. They might have a trick up their sleeve."

Luo Chen nodded. They knew that now was not the time to get entangled with the man in black robe.

The two quickly evacuated the village and headed towards their next target.

In the next few days, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang visited several villages where abnormalities had occurred, and they found that similar rituals were being carried out in every place.

Although they succeeded in stopping it several times, they were met with stiffer resistance each time.

"These black-robed people seem to be looking for some kind of power, and there must be a larger organization behind them."

Luo Chen said to Qingshuang during a break.

Qingshuang nodded, "We must find the source of this organization, otherwise these villages will never have peace."

They continued to move forward and investigate further, until one day they came to an old castle shrouded in black fog.

There was an unsettling atmosphere surrounding the castle. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang knew that they might have found the core of the Black Robe Organization.

"We have to be careful, this place may be more dangerous than any place we have encountered before." Luo Chen warned.

Qingshuang gripped her staff tightly, her heart filled with determination.

"No matter how dangerous it is, we must uncover the truth."

The two entered the castle carefully, and the scene inside the castle shocked them.

The walls were covered with ancient runes and a dark red liquid, which seemed to be blood, was flowing on the ground.

They heard low chanting, coming from deep within the castle.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang followed the direction of the sound and came to a huge underground hall.

In the center of the hall, a huge black altar stood there, surrounded by people in black robes, who were holding a grand ceremony.

Waves of puzzling and mysterious noises continued to ring out.

A mysterious force that seems to be able to influence people's thinking ability is spreading here.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang hid in a corner of the hall, observing the actions of the man in black robe.

They knew that this ceremony was more important than any previous one because the number of black-robed men and the evil aura they exuded were far greater than before.

"Qingshuang, do you feel that the aura here is different from what we encountered before?" Luo Chen asked in a low voice.

Qingshuang nodded, her brows furrowed, "Yes, the aura here is even more ancient and darker. I sense a powerful force brewing."

Luo Chen's eyes were fixed on the altar, trying to find the key to this ceremony.

"We have to find a way to stop this, or we're in trouble."

Qingshuang took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

"Luo Chen, we have to be careful. If we are discovered, we may not be able to leave here alive."

Luo Chen nodded, he knew Qingshuang was telling the truth.

They had to find an opportunity, an opportunity to completely disrupt the ceremony.

At this moment, a man in a black robe walked to the center of the altar, raised his hands high, and began to chant an ancient spell.

As he chanted, the entire hall began to vibrate, and a powerful energy wave spread from the center of the altar.

"It's now!"

Luo Chen whispered, and he and Qingshuang jumped out of their hiding place at the same time and rushed towards the altar.

The people in black robes were stunned by the sudden attack, but they quickly reacted and took out their weapons, ready to fight.

"Stop them!" roared the black-robed leader, his voice filled with anger and panic.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang shuttled among the crowd of black-robed people. Their movements were swift and precise, and every shot hit the target accurately.

However, the number of black-robed men was too large, and they gradually felt overwhelmed.

"Luo Chen, this is not a solution. We must find the weakness of the altar!" Qingshuang shouted loudly during the battle.

Luo Chen nodded and began to carefully observe the structure of the altar, trying to find a way to crack it.

Just then, he noticed a strange gem on the altar, which emitted a unique light.

"Qingshuang, look at that gem! It may be the key to the entire ceremony!" Luo Chen shouted.

Qingshuang followed Luo Chen's gaze and she immediately understood what Luo Chen meant.

"I'll attract their attention, and you go destroy the gem!"

Luo Chen nodded and began to approach the altar, while Qingshuang created greater chaos among the black-robed crowd.

As she swung her staff, beams of spiritual energy streaked across the hall like meteors, hitting several men in black robes.

Luo Chen took the opportunity to rush to the altar. He raised his sword high and chopped at the gem with all his strength.

With a clear sound, the gem shattered, and the entire altar began to shake violently. "No! What have you done!" The leading black-robed man screamed in horror, his voice filled with despair.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang did not stop, they knew that they had to completely destroy the altar.

The two worked together and finally destroyed the altar completely.

As the altar collapsed, the entire hall began to collapse, and the black-robed people fled in panic.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang took the opportunity to escape from this dangerous place.

When they were finally standing safely in the sunlight outside the castle, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Success." Luo Chen said to Qingshuang with a smile.

Qingshuang nodded and a relieved smile appeared on her face.

“Yes, we did.”

After resolving this matter, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang quickly left the place.

After all, they both foiled the plans of those mysterious men in black.

If he didn't run, he would be caught.

Isn't this another troublesome thing?

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang took a short rest outside the castle. They knew that although the black-robed man's ritual had been temporarily stopped, the fight was far from over.

They need more information and need to find the source of the Black Robe Organization in order to completely solve the problem.

"Where are we going next?" Qingshuang asked, with a determination gleaming in her eyes.

Luo Chen pondered for a moment, then replied: "We should go to a nearby town. There may be clues we need there. The black-robed man cannot act completely secretly. There will always be someone who knows something."

Qingshuang nodded in agreement, and the two of them set off for the town.

Along the way, they talked about the battle that had just happened and analyzed the possible motives of the man in black robe.

"Have you noticed that those men in black robes seem to be summoning some kind of power?" Luo Chen suddenly said.

Qing Shuang frowned, "Yes, I felt it too. That power is very ancient and powerful. I'm worried that we have only destroyed a ritual, and there are more things we don't know about."

Luo Chen nodded, he understood Qingshuang’s concerns.

They need more allies and more information to fight against this mysterious organization.

After arriving in the town, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang began to ask around for information.

They disguised themselves as ordinary travelers and carefully inquired about the man in black robes.

After several days of hard work, they finally got some clues from an old tavern owner.

"People in black robes? Oh, those guys, they often appear in the abandoned temple in the north on full moon nights." The old tavern owner said mysteriously.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other. They knew that this might be the clue they were looking for.

"Thank you, boss." Luo Chen politely thanked the old tavern owner, then left the tavern with Qingshuang.

"It seems we have to go to the abandoned temple in the north." Luo Chen said.

Qing Shuang nodded, "Yes, but we have to be careful, it may be more dangerous than the castle."

They prepared for a few days and then set out on the journey to the abandoned temple.

The temple is located in a barren valley, surrounded by dense forests.

As they approached the temple, a cold breath hit them.

"Something feels wrong here." Qingshuang whispered, and she tightened her grip on the staff in her hand.

Luo Chen nodded and drew his sword. "Let's move forward carefully."

They entered the temple carefully and were shocked by the scene inside.

The walls were covered with ancient murals depicting some mysterious ritual they had never seen before.

There were some broken statues scattered on the ground, which seemed to have been some kind of guardian gods.

"Look over there!" Qingshuang suddenly said, pointing to a stone platform in front.

Luo Chen looked in the direction Qingshuang's finger pointed and saw a tattered book on the stone platform.

They walked over carefully, and Luo Chen reached out and picked up the book.

"What is this?" Qingshuang asked curiously.

Luo Chen turned the pages of the book and found some ancient spells and rituals recorded in it.

"This appears to be the secret book that the man in black robes uses to summon power," he whispered.

Qingshuang looked around nervously, "We have to be careful, this book could be very dangerous."

Luo Chen nodded and put the book away carefully.

"Let's leave here first and study it carefully when we get back."

Just as they were about to leave, a cold wind suddenly blew, and a low laugh came from the depths of the temple.

"Do you think you can stop us like this?" a hoarse voice sounded.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang immediately became alert, they knew that the real danger had just begun.

A figure slowly walked out of the darkness. It was a man in a black robe with an evil smile on his face.

"Welcome to our temple. You have disturbed our ceremony. Now, you must pay the price." The man in black robe said coldly.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang gripped their weapons tightly, they knew that a fierce battle was about to begin.

"We won't let you succeed." Luo Chen said firmly.

The black-robed man sneered, "Then let's see if you have the ability."

The battle was about to break out, and Luo Chen and Qingshuang engaged in a fierce confrontation with the man in black robe.

The black-robed man has powerful magic power, and every attack he makes is full of destructive power.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang resisted with difficulty relying on their tacit cooperation and firm will.

"You can't stop us!" The man in black robe laughed wildly, and his magic power seemed to be constantly increasing.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang knew that they had to find the black-robed man's weakness as soon as possible, otherwise they would not be able to win.

"Qingshuang, have you noticed that his magic power seems to weaken at a certain moment?" Luo Chen whispered during the break in the battle.

Qing Shuang nodded, "Yes, every time he chants a spell, his defense will be temporarily lowered."

A gleam of light flashed in Luo Chen's eyes, "Then we will attack at that time!"

They continued to fight with the man in black robe, waiting for the opportunity to come.

Finally, when the black-robed man chanted the spell again, Luo Chen and Qingshuang launched the attack at the same time.

Their attacks hit the black-robed man accurately, and he let out a painful scream and his body began to tremble.

"No! This is impossible!" the black-robed man shouted in disbelief.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang did not give him any chance to breathe. They quickly launched an attack again and finally defeated the man in black robe completely.

As the black-robed man fell, the entire temple began to shake violently. (End of this chapter)
