Chapter 298 Seal Crisis
From the crack, even more turbulent black energy roared out like a raging tsunami, instantly plunging the palace into darkness.
The monsters formed from this energy were terrifying and varied in form. Some were as massive as mountains, covered in pitch-black scales. Between these scales flickered a strange red light, as if ready to devour everything at any moment.
Some were small but agile, shuttling back and forth in the palace like black lightning. Wherever they passed, the air was torn apart, leaving behind shocking black cracks.
In that dim space filled with a strange atmosphere, Li Zhao stood firmly like a towering mountain, his hands tightly grasping the purification crystal, as if it was his last weapon to fight against fate.
All around him, overwhelming black energy surged like a surging tide, carrying endless malice and destructive power as it madly attacked his defenses. Each impact made the air emit a sharp whistling sound, like the roar of a demon in his ears.
Under the impact of this powerful black energy, the purifying crystal flickered, like a lonely boat drifting in a storm.
Its light was as faint as a candle in the wind, as if it would be completely swallowed by the darkness in the next second. Li Zhao's heart tightened and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
It struggled to light up again, emitting a brief and dazzling light, giving people a glimmer of hope.
Li Zhao's gaze was like the brightest stars in the night sky, firm and bright, with no intention of retreating.
His eyes revealed a kind of determination and perseverance, as if he had already put life and death aside.
The images of his comrades who died in the battle kept appearing in his mind. Their blood could not be shed in vain, and their beliefs must be continued by themselves.
At this critical moment, Li Zhao mustered his courage and shouted, "Everyone, hold on! The purification crystals are still resonating with the power within the palace. We will definitely find a way out!"
His voice was like a huge bell, echoing in the chaotic space, penetrating the layers of black energy and reaching the ears of every companion.
The voice was full of strength and confidence, which gradually calmed the panicked hearts of his companions.
He suppressed the nervousness that was surging like waves in his heart. The muscles on his face trembled slightly, but his eyes became more focused.
He concentrated on guiding the power of the purification crystal, his hands trembling slightly but controlling the crystal with great determination, trying to find the flaws of these monsters and black energy.
In the chaotic energy fluctuations, all kinds of strange lights and weird sounds intertwined together, as if it was a carnival from hell.
Li Zhao's mind was highly concentrated, and his perception was like sharp tentacles, constantly exploring in this complex ocean of energy.
He vaguely sensed that these monsters were closely connected to some deep power emitted by the crystal ball and were by no means affected solely by the surface light.
The deep power is like a silk thread hidden in the darkness, tightly connecting the monster and the crystal ball, and this may be the key to breaking the deadlock.
His brows were furrowed, and his eyes revealed a hint of thought and excitement.
He began to recall the various strange scenes and mysterious symbols he had seen in the palace before, trying to find clues related to this deep power.
His brain was working rapidly, like a precision gear turning at high speed, integrating and analyzing all the information.
The black energy around was still impacting, and the monsters were roaring even crazier, as if they had noticed Li Zhao's discovery and wanted to stop him from further exploring the truth.
But Li Zhao remained unmoved. He held the purification crystal tightly, with only one belief in his heart: he must find a way to break the deadlock, save everyone, and avenge his deceased companions.
Although the mysterious old man was exhausted, he was still holding on, holding the golden staff tightly with both hands like iron clamps, muttering to himself.
The gem on top of the staff lit up again, trying to counter the black energy with its purifying power.
Rays of golden light slashed towards the black energy like sharp blades, but the black energy was like a surging tide, instantly swallowing up the golden light, and the old man's attack had little effect.
But he was not discouraged. Instead, he increased his spiritual power output. Beads of sweat covered his forehead and his eyes revealed his unyielding determination.
The mysterious man, holding a golden sword, rushed towards the giant monsters without hesitation.
He moved swiftly among the monsters, the golden sword flashing, and every time he swung the sword, a splash of blood was created.
The bodies of these monsters are as hard as iron, and the long sword can only leave shallow marks on them.
The mysterious man's arms were sore, but he gritted his teeth and continued to fight, knowing that he must not fall down at this critical moment.
Su Mengyao condensed the power of ice and tried to build an indestructible ice wall around everyone to resist the monsters' attacks.
She danced her hands rapidly, the temperature around her dropped sharply, and the water vapor in the air quickly condensed into ice.
A thick ice wall gradually took shape, its surface flickering with a faint blue light and emitting bursts of chill.
Those small monsters were extremely agile. They easily penetrated the ice wall like black arrows and pounced towards the crowd.
Seeing this, Su Mengyao hurriedly condensed an ice blade and shot it at the monster.
The ice blade brought with it a biting cold, instantly freezing several monsters into ice sculptures, but more monsters came from all directions, making her overwhelmed.
The spirit messenger closed his eyes tightly and used all his strength to activate the Eye of Samsara, trying to interfere with the monster's actions from a spiritual level.
Her spiritual power was like a big net, covering the monsters.
Due to her interference, some monsters' movements were temporarily slowed down, and a hint of confusion appeared in their eyes.
But soon, these monsters broke free from their mental restraints and pounced on everyone madly again.
The spiritual messenger felt a splitting headache. The mental power of these monsters was much stronger than those he had encountered before, and his mental interference could hardly have any substantial effect.
The mysterious woman kept shooting arrows, and the silver arrows, carrying a biting cold and powerful force, shot towards the monster.
She is an expert archer, and every arrow she shoots hits the monster's vital points accurately.
There were too many monsters, and her arrows were like stones sinking into the sea, and were instantly submerged in the group of monsters.
There was a hint of anxiety in her eyes, but she never stopped drawing the bow and shooting the arrow, trying to buy more time for everyone.
In the eerie and terrifying underground ruins, there was a creepy atmosphere, and the thick darkness seemed to have substance, tightly oppressing everyone's nerves.
There was a strange light flickering on the surrounding walls, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching in the dark.
A group of hideous monsters were rushing towards the crowd with their fangs and claws bared. Their bodies were twisted and huge, emitting a foul odor, and every roar made the air tremble.
Everyone fought hard, but the monsters came in an endless stream like a tide. Their physical strength was gradually exhausted in this endless battle, their wounds continued to increase, and blood dyed the ground beneath their feet red.
The dark cloud of despair, like the thick darkness, hangs heavily over everyone's heart, as if they have already seen their own tragic end.
Just when everyone felt completely hopeless and the fire of hope in their hearts was about to go out, Li Zhao, who was always meticulous and observant in the team, suddenly lit up his eyes.
He had been staring at the mysteriously glowing purification crystal. This crystal was the key to their entry into this place, and it was said to have the magical power to purify evil. The purification crystal was emitting a soft and holy light, which was particularly dazzling in this dark environment.
Not far away, a huge crystal ball was suspended in the air. A strange light surrounded the crystal ball, and some ancient and mysterious runes were faintly emerging in the light.
Li Zhao watched intently, his eyes moving back and forth between the purification crystal and the crystal ball.
He discovered an astonishing phenomenon: when the light of the purification crystal flickered, certain runes in the light surrounding the crystal ball would also flicker synchronously.
Whenever this synchronized flashing occurred, the movements of the madly rushing monsters seemed to be more restricted; their movements became slower and their attacks were no longer as fierce.
A strong sense of excitement and hope surged in Li Zhao's heart. His eyes were as big as copper bells, and the muscles on his face trembled slightly with excitement.
He immediately shouted at the top of his lungs, using all his strength, "Everyone, pay attention! The purification crystal and the crystal ball runes are reacting synchronously. This is our chance! Let's concentrate our forces on attacking the glowing area where the runes are. Maybe we can defeat these monsters!"
His voice echoed in the empty underground ruins, like a flash of lightning that cut through the darkness, bringing new hope to everyone.
When everyone heard this, their originally dull eyes instantly lit up.
A look of determination returned to their faces, and all the fatigue and despair were gone.
The soldiers gripped their weapons tightly and quickly concentrated their originally scattered attack forces.
The magicians chanted something and cast powerful spells, shooting brilliant magical rays towards the light around the crystal ball.
The archers drew their bowstrings and shot sharp arrows at the target like raindrops.
For a moment, all kinds of attacks poured down like a storm towards the light area around the crystal ball.
The mysterious man leaped with all his might and swung out a powerful sword energy, which was like a golden dragon, rushing towards the area of light.
The sword energy hit the light, causing a violent explosion, and the light dimmed instantly.
Su Mengyao condensed a huge ice cone and shot it towards the light. The ice cone exploded in the light, releasing a powerful cold air that froze the surrounding black energy.
The spirit user uses his spiritual power to try to establish a connection with the runes around the crystal ball.
She discovered that these runes seemed to contain an ancient sealing power, and this power was currently out of balance.
Thanks to everyone's efforts, the light around the crystal ball gradually returned to normal, and the monster's movements became slower.
Just when everyone thought the crisis was about to be resolved, the crystal ball suddenly vibrated violently and the illusory figure appeared again.
"Your performance has exceeded my expectations, but the real test has just begun."
The illusory figure's voice carried a hint of relief, mixed with worry. "The evil power within the sealed land has awakened. Your current strength is far from enough to re-strengthen the seal."
The purification crystal in Li Zhao's hand shone brightly, and a powerful force surged out of it, resonating strongly with the power of the crystal ball.
Li Zhao felt a tremendous force surging into his body, and his body began to undergo wonderful changes. His strength, speed and perception were greatly enhanced.
He was surprised to find that he seemed to be able to communicate with some kind of consciousness in the crystal ball.
"Young man, you possess pure power, which is the key to saving the seal. But you must make a choice: continue to explore the secrets of the crystal ball, or use the existing power to try to strengthen the seal. The former is full of unknowns and dangers, and may put you in an irretrievable situation; the latter may not be able to completely prevent the revival of evil forces." An ancient voice sounded in Li Zhao's mind.
Li Zhao fell into deep thought, knowing that this choice was related to the life and death of everyone, and also to the fate of the entire sealed land.
While he was hesitating, the black energy surged again, and the monsters seemed to be stimulated by something and became more and more crazy.
