"What is this?" Yue'er was shocked and took a few steps back. At the moment when they held their breath and concentrated, a giant python emerged from the coffin, exuding a cold aura, and its eyes were burning like flames.
“Run!” Lin Feng shouted, and the three of them quickly retreated. However, the giant python was extremely fast and pounced on them in an instant. When he opened his mouth, a wave of black energy came towards Xiaoxue.
“Go!” Xiaoxue swung her sword out, and the sword light cut through the air, approaching the giant python. However, the giant python easily avoided it, and then turned around and struck back. Its huge tail hit Xiaoxue like a mountain, instantly knocking her away and causing blood to spurt out wildly.
"You stupid creatures, how dare you disturb my peace!" The python's voice was like thunder, deafening. True words came out of its mouth, as if it was cursing them.
“Don’t give up!” Lin Feng was filled with anger and rushed towards the giant python with all his strength, trying to attract its attention. Not to be outdone, Yue'er nimbly dodged around the giant python, looking for opportunities to attack.
However, the power of the giant python was too strong. After several attacks, everyone was beaten until they vomited blood and gradually lost their physical strength. At this moment, an idea flashed in Lin Feng's heart, and he suddenly thought of the previous runes.
"Those runes may be able to help us!" Lin Feng shouted, running towards the edge of the tomb. His palm touched the runes on the wall, and he felt the powerful energy, which instantly led to a burst of light.
"Quick, come here!" Lin Feng shouted hurriedly, and Xiaoxue and Yue'er quickly followed. Following Lin Feng's guidance, the surrounding runes began to flicker, forming a curtain of light that approached the giant python.
"This is impossible!" The giant python roared in horror, trying to resist the force, but to no avail. The light curtain instantly enveloped it, and the giant python's figure twisted in the light, making a shrill roar, as if it was suffering endless pain.
"Successful!" Xiaoxue and Yue'er were ecstatic, filled with hope. However, the figure of the giant python gradually disappeared in the light curtain, and finally turned into a plume of black smoke and dissipated in the air.
"We must find an exit!" Lin Feng said, thinking secretly in his heart. At this moment, the walls of the tomb began to vibrate, as if in response to their call.
"Quickly, let's go!" Xiaoxue said firmly, with light shining in her eyes. The three of them quickly ran towards the other side of the tomb, their hearts filled with expectations for the future.
The three of them ran all the way, their hearts filled with hope and uneasiness. The vibrations in the tomb seemed to indicate something, and the ancient runes on the walls flickered, as if warning them of the impending danger.
"This road seems to have no end!" Yue'er gasped and looked back, the darkness around them seemed to be swallowing their courage.
"Don't stop! We must find an exit!" Lin Feng encouraged loudly, but he also felt faintly uneasy in his heart. They continued to move forward, and suddenly, there was a low humming sound in the darkness ahead, followed by a strong wind, which made their clothes rustle.
"What is this sound?" Xiaoxue's face changed slightly, and she held the sword in her hand tightly.
At this moment, a huge shadow flew out of the darkness and headed towards them. It was a huge bat demon, its wings spread like a hill, its eyes like burning flames, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
“Get away!” Lin Feng shouted, and the three of them quickly dodged to both sides. The bat demon's claws slashed across, bringing up a gust of wind that almost knocked them over.
"This demon is too strong, we are no match for it!" Yue'er said in horror, her heart filled with despair.
"Don't give up! We still have a chance!" Lin Feng gritted his teeth, secretly thinking about how to deal with it. The bat demons hovered in the air, making deafening roars as if mocking their incompetence.
"We have to distract it!" Xiaoxue said suddenly, a bold idea flashed in his mind. The sword in her hand flashed in the light, seeming to sense her determination.
"I'll attract its attention, and you can take advantage of the opportunity to look for opportunities!" Xiaoxue said decisively, and then rushed towards the bat demon, the sword light drawing a beautiful arc in the air.
“Are you crazy?!” Yue’er exclaimed, trying to hold Xiaoxue, but it was too late.
Xiaoxue's sword light was directed at the bat demon. The demon was enraged and opened its mouth to spit out a ball of black energy, which attacked Xiaoxue directly. Xiaoxue's heart tightened, and she quickly moved sideways to avoid it. However, the black energy still brushed against her shoulder, taking away part of the power in an instant.
"Ah!" Xiaoxue groaned, blood spurted out, and her face turned pale instantly.
"Don't stop!" Lin Feng roared, his heart filled with anger and anxiety. He knew that only by defeating this demon could they find an exit.
When Yue'er saw this, she felt cruel and rushed towards the bat demon. She condensed a ray of light in her hand and tried to use the power of runes to attack. Although her power is not as good as Xiaoxue's sword, it is still enough to pose a certain threat to the devil.
“Go!” Yue’er shouted, and the light shot towards the bat demon like an arrow, hitting its wings. The bat demon screamed in pain and flapped its wings, trying to break free from the restraining force.
"Good opportunity!" Lin Feng was overjoyed and quickly ran towards Xiaoxue, held her shoulders and whispered: "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. As long as you can defeat it!" Xiaoxue endured the pain with a determined light in her eyes.
"Then let's do it together!" Lin Feng clenched his fists, igniting fearless fighting spirit in his heart. The three of them gathered together again to form a small battle formation, ready to face the upcoming challenge.
The bat demon roared angrily, regrouped its strength, and rushed towards them. Lin Feng, Yue'er and Xiaoxue worked together, and the power in their hands merged at this moment, forming a powerful light that was approaching the devil.
"Go!" Xiaoxue shouted, and the light rushed towards the bat demon like a torrent, covering it instantly. The bat demon struggled in the light, seeming to feel a hint of fear.
“Continue!” Lin Feng roared, the flame of hope igniting in his heart. Their power reached its peak at this moment, and the light was as dazzling as the sun, instantly swallowing the demon's figure.
"Ah!" The bat demon let out a heart-rending cry, and his figure gradually dissipated in the light, and finally turned into a wisp of black smoke and dissipated in the air.
"Successful!" Xiaoxue and Yue'er were ecstatic and filled with hope. However, Lin Feng felt a little uneasy, as if this was not the end.
"Quick, keep looking for the exit!" Lin Feng said. Although there were still doubts in his heart, the three of them still ran towards the other side of the tomb.
However, just a few steps away, the walls of the tomb shook again, as if in response to their arrival. The air around them became colder and colder, and the runes on the wall began to flicker, as if warning them of the coming danger. "What on earth is this place?" Yue'er asked in a low voice, the uneasiness in her heart getting stronger.
"I don't know, but we must remain vigilant." Lin Feng stared around and thought to himself. They continued to move forward, and suddenly, there was a low roar from the ground, and then a huge stone door slowly opened, revealing a dark space.
"Should we go in?" Xiaoxue asked hesitantly, feeling full of uneasiness.
"We have no choice, maybe there will be an exit here." Lin Feng said firmly, praying secretly in his heart.
The three of them looked at each other, knowing in their hearts that this road would never be that simple. They walked cautiously into the dark space, and the air around them instantly became cold, as if it was swallowing their courage.
"This seems to be an altar." Yue'er whispered, with fear shining in her eyes. There is a huge stone platform in the center of the altar, with some ancient instruments placed on it, surrounded by dense skeletons, which seem to tell the tragic history of this place.
"This place is too weird, we have to be careful." Lin Feng said, his heart full of vigilance.
At this moment, a dazzling light suddenly flashed above the altar, and then a vague figure slowly emerged. It was a mage in black robes with a sinister smile on his face.
"Welcome, brave explorers." The mage's voice was as low as a ghost, full of ridicule, "You dare to break into my territory, you are really stupid."
"You Who is it?" Lin Feng shouted angrily, feeling filled with uneasiness.
"I am the master of this darkness, guarding the endless curse." The mage smiled slightly, and black energy flashed in his hands, "You will become a sacrifice to my power!"
"Quick, prepare to fight!" Lin Feng shouted, fearless fighting spirit igniting in his heart. The three of them quickly gathered together to prepare for the upcoming challenge.
With a wave of the mage's hand, the surrounding skeletons instantly revived and turned into a dark force, rushing towards them. Xiaoxue, Lin Feng and Yue'er worked together to resist, but the power of darkness came like a tide, making them feel extremely desperate.
"We can't give up!" Lin Feng roared, the flame of hope igniting in his heart. Their powers merged at this moment, forming a powerful light that approached the mage.
"Go!" Xiaoxue shouted, and the light rushed towards the mage like a torrent, covering him instantly. The mage struggled in the light, seeming to feel a hint of fear.
However, the power of darkness still surged in, making them feel extremely desperate. At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed through Lin Feng's mind.
"Those runes may be able to help us!" Lin Feng shouted, running towards the edge of the altar. His palm touched the runes on the altar, and he felt the powerful energy, which instantly led to a burst of light.
"Quick, come here!" Lin Feng shouted hurriedly, and Xiaoxue and Yue'er quickly followed. Following Lin Feng's guidance, the surrounding runes began to flicker, forming a curtain of light that approached the mage.
“This is impossible!” The mage yelled in horror, trying to resist the force, but to no avail. The light curtain instantly enveloped him, and the mage's figure twisted in the light, letting out a shrill roar, as if he was suffering endless pain.
The light curtain gradually shrank, and the mage's roar echoed in the air, as if cursing Xiaoxue, Lin Feng and Yue'er. However, with the intensity of the light, the mage's figure was finally swallowed up and turned into a wisp of black smoke, dissipating in the air. The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, but they knew that the danger before them was not completely eliminated.
"Quick, don't stop!" Lin Feng said hurriedly, the air around them was still full of cold air, as if to warn them that the power of darkness was still lurking.
Xiaoxue and Yue'er nodded, and the three of them quickly ran towards the other side of the altar. Just as they passed the altar, the ground suddenly shook, and a low roar came from around the altar. The runes on the stone wall began to flicker, seeming to tell some ancient secret.
"What is this?" Yue'er asked in horror, her heart filled with uneasiness.
"I don't know, but we have to be careful." Lin Feng stared around, thinking to himself. They continued to move forward, and suddenly, a light appeared behind the altar, which seemed to be guiding them.
"Over there!" Xiaoxue pointed to the light, with a glimmer of hope in her heart.
The three of them walked cautiously toward the light, passed through a narrow passage, and finally came to a spacious cave. In the center of the cave stands an ancient stone tablet, carved with complex runes and emitting a faint light.
"What is this place?" Xiaoxue asked in a low voice, with curiosity shining in her eyes.
"I think this may be the inheritance place of the Sword Immortal." Lin Feng's voice was full of awe, "It is said that the Sword Immortal left countless trials, and only those who pass the test can gain his power."
"We must try!" Yue'er said firmly, with a brave light shining in her eyes.
Lin Feng nodded, walked forward, and gently touched the stone tablet. In an instant, the runes on the stone tablet began to flash, emitting a dazzling light, and a voice echoed in the cave: "Brave explorers, if you want to inherit the power of the Sword Immortal, you need to pass three tests. The first test is the test of courage. Refining!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings of the cave instantly became dark, as if enveloped by invisible power. Lin Feng, Yue'er and Xiaoxue looked at each other, their hearts filled with tension.
“Let’s face it together!” Lin Feng encouraged. The three of them held each other’s hands tightly and prayed silently in their hearts.
Suddenly, a low roar came from the depths of the cave, and then, a huge black shadow rushed towards them. It was a twisted monster, exuding a strong dark aura, which seemed to be born from the deepest fear in their hearts.
“Don’t be afraid!” Xiaoxue shouted, the sword in his hand flashed, and he struck at the monster. The sword light cut through the air and went straight to the monster's heart. However, the monster's skin was as hard as steel, and the sword light left faint traces on it.
“We must work together!” Lin Feng shouted, fighting spirit igniting in his heart. The three of them quickly gathered together to form a small battle formation, preparing for this life-and-death struggle.
The monster roared angrily and rushed toward them, its huge claws slashing like blades with an aura of destruction. Xiaoxue, Lin Feng and Yue'er worked together to resist, but the power of darkness came like a tide, making them feel extremely desperate. (End of this chapter)
