Chapter 246 Mysterious Black Shadow
Chapter 246 Mysterious Black Shadow
After Li Yunfei and his companions successfully defeated the dark wizard, they continued to go deeper into the mysterious valley. The fog in the valley became thicker and thicker, like a thick curtain that tightly wrapped them up. Every step forward was filled with unknown fear.
Li Yunfei held the sword in hand and carefully cleared the way ahead. He scanned the surroundings vigilantly, not missing any slight movement. Lin Yue followed closely behind, the gem on the staff emitting a faint light, trying to dispel the surrounding fog, but the effect was minimal.
"This fog is too strange, everyone please be careful." Li Yunfei said in a low voice, his voice echoing in the silent valley, adding a bit of tension to the atmosphere.
Zhang Hao clenched his spear tightly, beads of sweat oozing out of his forehead. "This place exudes an evil aura. I wonder what else is waiting for us."
Feng Yu waved her hands, and the flames danced in her palms, lighting the way ahead for everyone. Mo Ying was like a ghost, hiding in the shadows, ready to deal with sudden dangers at any time.
Suddenly, an eerie sound of wind came from the depths of the valley, and there seemed to be faint cries in the wind.
"What's that sound?" Lin Yue's heart tightened and he stopped unconsciously.
Li Yunfei made a gesture to silence everyone, and everyone immediately quieted down, listening carefully to the strange sound of the wind.
The crying became clearer and clearer, as if countless wronged souls were crying out for their misfortunes.
"Don't be afraid, this may be an illusion of the Dark Cult." Li Yunfei said with forced calmness.
At this moment, a group of figures slowly walked out of the thick fog. Their bodies were distorted, their faces were blurred, and they exuded a creepy aura.
"Is it a ghost?" Zhang Hao's voice trembled a little.
Li Yunfei shouted, "No matter what it is, let's try it first!" After that, he swung his sword towards those figures.
As the sword wind passed, those figures dissipated like smoke, and then regrouped not far away.
Seeing this, Lin Yue quickly cast a spell, and a beam of light shot towards those figures. Under the light, those figures screamed in pain, but they still did not disappear.
Feng Yu waved his hands, and a ball of blazing fire rushed towards the figures. The flames instantly engulfed those figures, but after a moment, they walked out of the flames again.
Mo Ying emerged from the shadows, and stabbed at those figures with his short blade like lightning. The short blade passed through their bodies but did not cause any substantial damage.
Everyone became increasingly anxious, as these mysterious figures seemed impossible to eliminate.
"Everyone calm down, there must be a way to break it!" Li Yunfei shouted loudly.
Just when everyone was in trouble, Lin Yue suddenly discovered a strange phenomenon. Whenever those figures approached the stone wall on one side of the valley, their figures became more illusory.
"There's something wrong with the stone wall!" Lin Yue shouted.
Upon hearing this, Li Yunfei immediately rushed towards the stone wall. When he got close to the stone wall, he found that it was covered with strange runes.
"This may be the key to controlling these figures." Li Yunfei said, swinging his sword at the runes.
As the rune was broken, the figures began to disappear and the crying gradually stopped.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and continued on their way.
The air in the valley became more and more humid, as if water could be squeezed out of it. The ground was covered with thick moss and water stains, and people could easily slip if they were not careful. Everyone's footsteps became heavier, and they had to carefully maintain their balance with every step.
Suddenly, Zhang Hao shouted excitedly: "Look! There is a cave ahead!" Looking in the direction of his finger, he saw a dark hole hidden in the dense grass. Li Yunfei's eyes lit up, and a sense of curiosity and adventure surged in his heart. Although he didn't know whether there was any danger hidden in the cave, he decided to go in and explore.
As they approached the cave, a piercing chill hit them, causing them to shiver. Li Yunfei hesitated for a moment and looked back at his teammates. Their eyes were full of expectation and worry, as if they were waiting for him to make a decision.
Finally, Li Yunfei gritted his teeth and resolutely walked into the cave. He took a deep breath, held the weapon tightly in his hand, and stepped carefully on the wet ground. Others followed closely behind, nervously and excitedly looking forward to the next discovery.
The cave was dark and damp, with strange lights flickering on the walls and some animal bones scattered on the ground, which made people shudder.
"What is this place?" Feng Yu asked.
Mo Ying squatted down and examined the bones. "It looks like some kind of evil ritual was performed here."
Just then, a low roar came from deep in the cave.
"Oh no, there's something!" Li Yunfei clenched his sword again.
The roar was getting closer and closer, and a huge monster rushed out from the darkness. The monster was as big as a mountain, with sharp thorns all over its body, and its eyes were flashing blood-red light.
"What kind of monster is this?" Zhang Hao exclaimed.
Li Yunfei didn't have time to think and rushed towards the monster. The monster waved its huge claws and pounced on Li Yunfei. Li Yunfei dodged the monster's attack and swung his sword at the monster's leg.
The monster felt pain and roared angrily.
Lin Yue cast a spell, and beams of light shot towards the monster's eyes. The monster was disturbed by the light and its movements became slow.
Zhang Hao took the opportunity to thrust his gun into the monster's abdomen, but the thrust was bounced back by the monster's hard skin.
Feng Yu formed seals with her hands and muttered something. A huge ball of flame condensed in her hands and then flew towards the monster.
The monster was hit by the flames and black smoke came out of its body.
Mo Ying took advantage of the monster's distraction, went around behind it, and stabbed its tail with his short blade.
The monster gradually lost its strength under the siege of the crowd. It struggled madly, trying to make a final resistance.
Li Yunfei seized the opportunity, leaped onto the monster's back, and inserted the sword into its head.
The monster let out a desperate roar, fell to the ground and stopped moving.
Everyone sat down on the ground exhausted, gasping for breath.
"Finally solved." Zhang Hao said.
However, before they had time to rest, a strange sound came from deep in the cave.
"Is there anything else?" Lin Yue said nervously.
Everyone stood up and looked into the depths of the cave vigilantly again.
I saw a black light rising slowly from the depths, and a mysterious figure vaguely appeared in the light.
"How dare you, you ignorant fellows, break in here?" said the mysterious figure, his voice full of anger and majesty.
Li Yunfei and others looked at this mysterious figure, their hearts full of doubts and vigilance. They didn't know what kind of more difficult battle was waiting for them next...
