Just then, the roaring outside grew closer and closer, and both of them felt unprecedented pressure.
Tian Siyao gripped the jade sword tightly, while Chen Ze took out the Five-Colored Pagoda, preparing to repel the approaching evil spirits.
“It seems we need to speed things up. These words and patterns must hold some secret. If we can decipher them, we’ll have a chance to find an escape route,” Chen Ze said, his expression grave.
Tian Siyao nodded, and the two of them moved closer to the stone tablet again, concentrating intently on deciphering it.
Their eyes met, as if they had found a sliver of comfort and strength in this stressful environment.
At that moment, they understood that no matter what dangers they faced, as long as they worked together, there was always hope of getting through the darkness and finding the light.
The roars outside the tomb grew sharper, mixed with a chilling resentment, like an invisible black mist approaching.
However, Chen Ze and Tian Siyao did not give up. They knew that only by persevering to the end could they find a glimmer of hope in this darkness.
Tian Siyao's jade sword shimmered in the dim light, its glow mirroring the iridescent light of Chen Ze's five-colored pagoda, like two dazzling stars silently shining in the night.
The air inside the tomb seemed to have solidified, and every step required effort, as if traversing a thick darkness.
Chen Ze gripped the Qingfeng Sword tightly in his hand, the hilt emitting a faint, eerie light that illuminated the space around him and Tian Siyao.
Tian Siyao didn't dare to be careless. She moved her lips slightly and silently recited a mind-clearing incantation. The magic weapon, the jade sword, instantly emitted a pale green light in the air.
Just then, a figure appeared in their sight, and Taoist Wu Sang slowly walked out.
A chilling glint appeared in his eyes, as if they held endless schemes.
Following closely behind him was a gigantic ghost named "Black Fiend".
The ghost's eyes were like burning flames. As soon as it saw Chen Ze and Tian Siyao, it roared and launched an attack as if it had been electrocuted.
"Quickly, use the Qingfeng Sword to block it!" Tian Siyao's voice revealed a hint of tension.
Without hesitation, Chen Ze grabbed the hilt of the Qingfeng Sword, and the blade suddenly emitted a dazzling white light.
"Go!" he shouted, and the sword light rushed straight towards Hei Sha.
The moment the sword light collided with the black demon, time seemed to stand still, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze.
Black Fiend roared, his body twisting and deforming into a cloud of black mist as he tried to evade the attack of the Clear Wind Sword.
However, the Qingfeng Sword seemed to have eyes, piercing directly through the black mist and severely injuring Heisha.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Tian Siyao swung her jade sword, and a streak of emerald green sword energy sliced through the air, directly slashing towards Wu Sang Daoren.
Wu Sang Daoist sneered and was about to dodge.
"Don't even think about escaping!" Chen Ze thought to himself. Suddenly, the Yin-Yang Mirror in his hand emitted a faint light, reflecting the true form of Wu Sang Daoist.
At this moment, the air was filled with the aura of swords and a chilling coldness, creating a suffocating atmosphere of tension.
Tian Siyao and Chen Ze both knew that this battle was crucial to their ability to leave this terrifying tomb.
Wu Sang Daoren's face grew increasingly gloomy; he realized that his plan had been exposed.
"Although you are formidable, it is too early for you to expect to leave here alive."
"Who will get out alive is still uncertain," Chen Ze replied with a cold laugh. He knew that the upcoming battle would be even more intense, but also even more anticipated.
Despite facing enormous threats, each victory made them more determined and brought them closer to that distant exit.
At that moment, they both had only one thought in their minds—to overcome everything before them and leave this place alive. In this mysterious and gloomy tomb, Chen Ze felt an inexplicable sense of oppression, as if the air itself was filled with the aura of death.
He swiftly summoned the Five-Colored Pagoda, and a small pentagonal pagoda instantly rose into the air.
The colorful light illuminated the entire tomb, creating a striking contrast with its original dark atmosphere.
The light contained five colors: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, interwoven to form a dazzling light curtain.
"Impossible!" Black Fiend's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
He had seen similar magical artifacts in the underworld, but he never expected to see them in the hands of a mortal.
Nevertheless, he was still prepared to charge forward.
"Tian Siyao, are you ready?" Chen Ze asked through telepathy.
"Ready, awaiting your command." Tian Siyao held the jade sword, her mind highly focused.
Chen Ze felt a slight sense of relief and pointed to the colorful pagoda, "Watch this!"
The five rays of light on the light tower suddenly coalesced into a beam of white light, heading straight for the Black Fiend.
Hei Sha was struck by the beam of light, his body tumbling as if pulled by an invisible force, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.
He struggled to steady himself, his face showing astonishment and resentment. "You mortals actually possess such a mysterious magical artifact!"
Seeing this, Tian Siyao stepped forward and gripped the jade sword tightly in her hand.
The sword blade shimmered with a faint blue light, echoing the glow of the multicolored pagoda in the tomb.
"Black Fiend, behold the power of my Jade Sword!" Tian Siyao roared, and the Jade Sword, carrying a gust of wind, streaked through the darkness like an emerald meteor, heading straight for Black Fiend.
Seeing that he could not dodge, Hei Sha took the sword strike head-on.
Although no real harm was caused, the arrogance on his face had disappeared.
Chen Ze was secretly pleased to see the swordsmanship and power that Tian Siyao displayed.
But he also knew that this battle was far from over, and Black Fiend would never give up.
He secretly tightened his grip on the multicolored pagoda, silently reciting a spell, preparing to strike again at any moment.
The entire tomb seemed to sense the tense atmosphere of this duel.
The ancient murals on the stone wall seemed to be activated by this intense atmosphere, as if they were whispering something.
Chen Ze and Tian Siyao exchanged a knowing glance, understanding that the battle to come would be even more intense.
Hei Sha took a deep breath, as if to devour all the fear and unease. He glared at Chen Ze and Tian Siyao, letting out a chilling laugh, as if he could already see their doom.
Wu Sang Daoist's face was as dark as a cloud obscuring the moon, becoming increasingly serious.
He clasped his hands together and began to chant a spell that seemed complex yet drew people closer to listen.
Dark energy surged forth from all parts of his body like a tidal wave, eventually forming a black halo around him.
This scene resembled the instant of two supermassive black holes colliding in the universe, a sight that was both awe-inspiring and terrifying.
"What kind of spell is this?" Tian Siyao frowned, gripping the jade sword tightly in her hand. The sword seemed to sense the strange atmosphere and began to emit a faint blue light.
"I don't know either, but we must stop him." Chen Ze gripped the Qingfeng Sword tightly, the light flowing across its blade echoing the glow of the Five-Colored Pagoda, ready to respond to any unforeseen events. (End of Chapter)
