Chapter 297 Contents of the Letter
As soon as Li Yunfei finished speaking, everyone quickly gathered around him, their eyes full of tension and concern.
Lin Yue was the first to ask, "Yun Fei, what did the letter say?" There was a hint of urgency in her voice.
Li Yunfei took a deep breath and said slowly: "The letter said that in an ancient ruin not far from us, an extremely powerful dark force wave appeared. It is said that it may be the new base of the dark forces."
Zhang Hao frowned and clenched his fists unconsciously: "Could it be that the dark forces are planning something else?"
A trace of worry flashed in Feng Yu's eyes: "If this is true, then we must take action as soon as possible."
Mo Ying was silent for a moment, then said calmly: "But we can't act blindly, we must first figure out the situation."
Li Yunfei nodded: "Yes, I decided that we should send a small team to investigate first."
Everyone agreed.
After some discussion, it was finally decided that Li Yunfei, Lin Yue and Mo Ying would form an exploration team to head to the ancient ruins.
On the day of departure, the morning sun shone on them, but it could not dispel the solemnity in their hearts. Li Yunfei wore light armor, a sword at his waist, and his steps were firm and powerful. Lin Yue wore a blue magic robe, holding a magic wand in his hand, his eyes full of vigilance. Mo Ying wore a black nightgown, his figure was looming in the sun, as if blending into the surrounding environment.
They rode along the rugged mountain road, the sound of horse hooves echoing in the valley. The trees on both sides of the road were lush and green, and occasionally a bird would be startled, adding a bit of tension to the atmosphere.
"Everyone be careful, the atmosphere here is a little strange." Li Yunfei said in a low voice.
Lin Yue nodded slightly, and the staff in his hand emitted a faint light, illuminating the road ahead for them.
Mo Ying was at the front of the team, always paying attention to the movements around him.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, an ancient ruin appeared before their eyes. The gate of the ruin was tightly closed, and a layer of black mist filled the air, giving people a gloomy and terrifying feeling.
Li Yunfei dismounted and slowly walked towards the gate. He reached out and gently touched the door, and a cold breath instantly spread throughout his body.
"This door seems to be sealed by dark forces." Lin Yue said.
Mo Ying walked around the ruins and came back to report: "There are no other entrances around, but I found some strange magic runes."
Lin Yue walked forward and observed the runes carefully, frowning more and more: "This is an extremely complex dark magic rune. I need time to decipher it."
Li Yunfei and Mo Ying stood by to protect Lin Yue, watching the surroundings vigilantly.
Lin Yue closed his eyes, muttered something, and waved the staff in his hand continuously, shooting rays of light at the runes. As time passed, beads of sweat covered Lin Yue's forehead, and his face became paler and paler.
Finally, there was a "click" sound, and the door slowly opened, and a strong breath of darkness rushed in.
Li Yunfei was the first to walk into the ruins. It was dark and damp inside, with strange lights flickering on the walls. They walked forward carefully, and the stone slabs under their feet made a "creaking" sound, as if telling an ancient secret.
Suddenly, a low roar came from the depths.
Li Yunfei and others stopped immediately, their heartbeats quickening.
"Be careful!" Li Yunfei drew his sword and stared straight ahead.
A huge dark monster slowly walked out of the shadows. The monster was huge, like a small mountain, with hard scales all over its body, flashing black light. Its eyes were like two burning flames, and black smoke spewed out of its mouth.
Lin Yue quickly cast a spell to create a protective shield for everyone.
Mo Ying's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot, ready to find the monster's weakness.
Li Yunfei was not afraid and rushed towards the monster. His sword flashed a cold light in the darkness and chopped the monster's body, but only sparks flew.
The monster roared and swung its huge claws towards Li Yunfei. Li Yunfei dodged sideways and swung his sword to counterattack.
Lin Yue continued to cast magic, and rays of light shot towards the monster, but the monster seemed to have a strong resistance to these magics.
Mo Ying appeared behind the monster and stabbed the monster's hind legs with the short blade in his hand. The monster felt pain and turned to pounce on Mo Ying.
At this critical moment, Lin Yue suddenly discovered that a scale on the monster's head was slightly different in color.
"Attack the scale on top of its head!" Lin Yue shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, Li Yunfei leaped up and stabbed towards the scale.
The moment the sword pierced the scales, the monster let out a painful roar and fell to the ground.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and continued to go deeper into the ruins.
The ruins were filled with a foul smell, and the murals on the walls had become blurred, as if telling the story of past glory and present decline.
They came to a huge hall. In the center of the hall there was a round stone platform, on which was placed a book emitting a dark aura.
Li Yunfei walked forward and wanted to pick up the book.
"Wait!" Lin Yue shouted, "This might be dangerous."
But Li Yunfei had already reached out and touched the book. Instantly, a powerful dark force surged out of the book and enveloped Li Yunfei.
"Yun Fei!" Lin Yue and Mo Ying exclaimed in shock. They stared at the scene in disbelief. Li Yun Fei was trapped in endless darkness, suffering from unspeakable pain.
Li Yunfei's face was distorted by extreme pain, his lips trembled, and he groaned. His handsome face had lost its former luster, replaced by a pale and desperate look. His body was shaky like a candle in the wind, and it seemed that it could be completely torn apart by the terrifying dark power at any time.
Faced with such a critical situation, Lin Yue did not dare to delay for a moment. She quickly mobilized all her magic power and used her most powerful magic skills. Colorful rays of light gushed out from her hands, like beams of dazzling lasers, rushing straight towards the raging dark power. These rays of light contained huge energy. They intertwined in the air, forming an airtight light net, attempting to tightly bind the dark power.
At the same time, Mo Ying also joined the battle without showing any weakness. He was as agile as a ghost, shuttling through the darkness, wielding an extremely sharp weapon in his hand, and constantly launching fierce attacks on the source of the dark power. Every swing brought with it a sharp gust of wind, as if to split the entire space apart.
However, despite Lin Yue and Mo Ying's full efforts, the dark force was extremely tenacious, like a ferocious beast, resisting their attack. It kept rolling and roaring, releasing waves of heart-pounding breath, making the two feel unprecedented pressure.
After a difficult struggle, they finally succeeded in rescuing Li Yunfei from the dark power.
However, just when they thought the crisis was over, a group of dark magicians suddenly appeared around the hall.
"All of you intruders will die here today!" the dark magicians said in unison.
A fierce magic battle is about to begin...
