Legend of the Embroiderer

Chapter 240: The Sealed Battle

The black tentacles were like a surging, boundless evil tide, overwhelming and rushing towards Li Zhao and the people around him.

These black tentacles were covered with hideous and twisted lines, like the claws of the devil from the abyss of hell, waving their fangs in the air and making bursts of creepy whistling sounds.

The surrounding air seemed to be completely solidified by this thick and indissoluble dark aura, making people feel difficulty breathing and chest tightness.

Faced with such a terrifying scene, Li Zhao was not afraid at all. He suddenly tightly grasped the crystal in his hand that was emitting a faint light, widened his eyes, and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Everyone, hurry up! Gather all our strength and activate this powerful seal immediately! We must not let these evil creatures succeed!"

Hearing Li Zhao's call, Su Mengyao and the Crown Princess, who were standing not far away, did not hesitate at all. They flashed and quickly moved towards him.

Su Mengyao's body was instantly surrounded by a layer of ice-blue spiritual light, like the frosty air in the cold winter, cold to the bone.

On the other side, the Crown Princess had blazing golden flames burning in her hands, blazing and dazzling, like a blazing flame under the scorching sun in midsummer.

Without hesitation, the two of them continuously injected the powerful strength contained in their bodies into the sealing power that Li Zhao was trying to guide.

At this time, the veins on Li Zhao's forehead were bulging, each one clearly visible, like a winding earthworm.

Beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his cheeks, but he didn't even bother to wipe them off. He just gritted his teeth and said grimly, "This damn sealing power is too complicated! It's completely beyond my imagination! Every time I try to channel a little of this power, it feels like trying to solve an eternal puzzle!"

After saying that, he closed his eyes tightly and immersed himself deeply in analyzing the information conveyed by the blurry figure in the crystal.

Deep within Li Zhao's mind, all sorts of mysterious runes and incomprehensible sentences intertwined and collided, emitting dazzling rays of light and forming a bizarre and fantastical picture...

The guardian of the dark will let out a creepy, sharp and piercing laugh. The laughter was like a sharp sword, piercing people's eardrums straight, as if it wanted to pierce them completely.

"Hahahahahaha... You, a bunch of insignificant ants, actually dream of sealing me away? This is simply the biggest joke in the world. You're really overestimating your own abilities!"

His words were filled with endless sarcasm and contempt.

Along with this arrogant laughter, the many tentacles controlled by the guardian danced as fast as lightning, so fast that people could not see their trajectory at all.

The power contained in these tentacles is also increasing exponentially at an astonishing speed, and each tentacle exudes a heart-pounding and terrifying aura.

This force was like a surging wave or a hurricane, with a majestic momentum enough to destroy everything in the world, and it attacked Li Zhao and others again.

Faced with such a terrifying attack, Li Zhao had no intention of retreating.

He took a deep breath and then suddenly opened his eyes.

At this moment, a hint of determination and irrepressible excitement suddenly flashed in his eyes.

He shouted at the top of his lungs, "I've found the key! As long as everyone follows the method I've described, we'll definitely succeed this time!"

After hearing what Li Zhao said, Su Mengyao and the Crown Princess looked at each other and saw determination and trust in each other's eyes.

The two of them nodded without hesitation and acted according to Li Zhao's instructions.

In an instant, the originally solid ground under the three people's feet began to tremble slightly, and mysterious runes gradually emerged.

These runes flickered with faint light, as if a long-sleeping ancient beast was about to wake up.

As time passed, an ancient and powerful aura began to permeate the surrounding air.

This atmosphere seems to have traveled through the long river of time and space, and has been transmitted from the distant ancient times, giving people a sense of solemnity.

The power of the seal is also gradually gathering and condensing in the hands of Li Zhao, Su Mengyao and the Crown Princess.

A huge sealing array emitting a soft and holy light slowly took shape.

This magic circle was like a dazzling moon hanging high in the sky, the runes on it flickering and jumping constantly, as if whispering those ancient mysterious legends that had long been forgotten by the years.

Just when the sealing formation was about to be completed, an extremely huge tentacle, like a black pillar protruding from the dark abyss, smashed down towards Li Zhao with a tremendous force.

Su Mengyao widened her eyes in horror and cried out, "Li Zhao, be careful!"

Regardless of her own safety, she instantly condensed an ice shield in front of her and rushed forward to resist regardless of everything.

The tentacles were too powerful, and the ice shield shattered like fragile glass the moment it came into contact. Su Mengyao was also blown away by the huge impact and fell heavily on the stone wall of the cave.

"Mengyao!" Li Zhao was extremely anxious, his eyes instantly turned red, and he wanted to rush over to check on Su Mengyao's condition, but how could the guardian of the dark will give him a chance.

It took advantage of Li Zhao's distraction and launched an even more powerful dark force, trapping Li Zhao like a black torrent.

Just when everyone was feeling desperate and almost being completely swallowed by the darkness, a melodious and ethereal chanting suddenly sounded in the cave.

The chanting seemed to have magical power, causing the originally restless dark forces to tremble slightly.

After the chanting, a soft light slowly fell from the top of the cave, and in the light, a woman in a light blue robe came gracefully.

The woman had a beautiful face, skin as smooth as mutton-fat jade, and eyes that held an ethereal and mysterious otherworldly quality. In her hand, she held a staff inlaid with colorful gems, the gem on top of which emitted a soft and mysterious light.

The woman spoke softly, her voice like a clear mountain spring: "Don't panic, I'm here to help you."

She gently waved her staff, and the gem on the staff shone brightly. An energy shield like a blue light curtain instantly appeared in front of everyone.

This shield emits a soft blue light, blocking all the surging dark forces.

Li Zhao was surprised and delighted, and asked hurriedly, "Who are you? Why did you come to help?"

The corners of the woman's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a gentle smile. "I am the spiritual messenger who protects this continent. For a long time, I have been guarding the balance of the world. When I sensed the movement of the dark forces, I knew that a crisis was approaching, so I came to help."

As she spoke, she pointed her staff toward the core of the world, and the gem on the top of the staff emitted a dazzling light, which resonated strongly with the sealing power of Li Zhao and others.

With the help of the spiritual messenger, the power of the seal quickly increased like ignited gunpowder.

The sealing array was finally completely formed, and the light it emitted illuminated the entire dark cave.

Li Zhao and others controlled the sealing formation as if they were controlling a scorching sun, flying towards the guardian of the dark will.

The guardian of the dark will felt an unprecedented threat and began to struggle frantically. Its body twisted and deformed, emitting black energy waves that rushed towards the sealing formation like cannonballs.

Under the impact of this dense energy wave, the sealing magic circle flickered and became shaky, as if it would break at any time.

Li Zhao and the others were as pale as paper, their clothes were already soaked with sweat. They gritted their teeth and used their last bit of strength to maintain the magic circle.

Just when the sealing circle was about to break, Li Zhao suddenly discovered an extremely tiny flaw on the guardian of the dark will - that was the dark energy node connecting it to the core of the world.

A hint of surprise flashed in Li Zhao's eyes, and he shouted loudly: "Attack that node! Now!"

Everyone woke up as if from a dream, and immediately concentrated all their strength, combining the power of the seal and the power of the spirit messenger to form a dazzling light, shooting towards the node.

The light hit the node accurately, and the guardian of the dark will let out a deafening scream, and his entire body began to tremble violently, as if his spine had been pulled out.

Just when everyone thought victory was in sight and their tense nerves had just relaxed a little, unexpected changes suddenly occurred at the core of the world.

The dark power in the core was like a raging black tsunami, instantly enveloping the guardian of the dark will.

In the blink of an eye, not only was the hit node repaired, but its power also became stronger, and the dark aura around it became stronger, as if it could swallow up the entire world.

The guardian of the dark will laughed wildly once more: "Your struggle is in vain. The dark power at the core of this world is endless. I will use this to rule the entire world and let darkness cover every corner!"

As soon as it finished speaking, it launched another attack. Countless black tentacles rushed towards everyone like a rainstorm. Wherever it went, the space seemed to be torn apart.

Li Zhao and others were once again in dire straits. Their strength was almost exhausted in the previous battle. Facing this more powerful dark force, their bodies trembled involuntarily and they had almost no ability to fight back.

The Spirit Envoy's expression also became unusually solemn. She frowned slightly and said slowly, "I never thought that the power of darkness could be so closely integrated with the core of the world. We must find a new method as soon as possible, otherwise... there will be no light in this world anymore."

At this critical moment of life and death, the crystal in Li Zhao's hand suddenly vibrated violently, emitting a dazzling light that made it impossible for people to open their eyes.

The blurry figure in the crystal appeared again, and this time, the message conveyed by the figure became clearer than ever before.

Li Zhao shouted in surprise: "I understand, we can use the power of the light source at the core of the world to fight against this dark force!"

However, before they had time to think about how to draw out the power of the origin of light, the dark forces in the core of the world launched another attack.

A huge black energy column, like a destructive meteor flying from the depths of the universe, wrapped in endless darkness and death, rushed towards everyone with the force of thunder.

Can Li Zhao and others successfully draw out the power of the origin of light and reverse this precarious battle situation?

What kind of more terrifying and unimaginable crisis will the core of this ever-changing world bring?

In this ultimate showdown between darkness and light, their fate is like a lone boat in a storm, still hanging by a thread, which is very worrying. Everyone is looking forward to that possible turning point.
