EBE Chapter 662 Power
Chapter 662 Power
"Really? Then let me see how powerful your so-called unity is." Zhang Yun laughed wildly, preparing to launch the final attack.
At this critical moment, Su Mo chanted a spell, and the Book of Wisdom shone brightly, together with the weapons of Lin Hao, Ajie, and Li Zixue, forming a huge light barrier, which forcibly blocked Zhang Yun's attack and gradually eroded his dark power.
"Impossible..." Zhang Yun's voice became weaker and weaker until it completely disappeared in the light.
"Zhao Ming, we are here!" Everyone rushed to the altar and untied Zhao Ming.
"Thank you, guys." Zhao Ming showed a tired but grateful smile. Everyone came forward and expressed their concern and support with practical actions.
"We'll talk about it on the way back. We shouldn't stay here for too long." Su Mo reminded. The five of them supported each other, left that shadowy place, and continued to move forward towards a bright future.
The moment they walked out of the castle, the door behind them slammed shut, seeming to symbolize the end of a story, but also foreshadowing that new challenges were waiting for them.
"This experience has strengthened our faith." Zhao Ming took a deep breath and looked at the first ray of dawn in the sky. "No matter what the future holds, as long as we are together, there will be no difficulties that we cannot overcome."
"Yes," Lin Hao answered, his tone relaxed but firm, "Light is always the force that darkness fears the most."
"You're right. The reason why light is so powerful is that it comes from our inner persistence and trust in each other." Su Mo held the Book of Wisdom tightly, his eyes gentle but full of power.
"Don't forget, we still have a mystery to solve." Ajie said with a smile. He looked at the Book of Wisdom in Li Zixue's hand, "Who is the Guardian of Light? One day we must find him."
"The Book of Wisdom seems to have the same meaning." Li Zixue touched the page lightly, and the edge of the book glowed slightly, as if confirming Ajie's statement, "It always guides us at the most critical moment. Perhaps the answer is already in the book."
"No matter what, let's deal with the trouble in front of us first." Lin Hao looked around to make sure there were no dangers that were missed. "We have to hurry back to the Parliament of Light to report everything. Zhang Yun's demise is just the beginning. A bigger threat may still be lurking in the dark."
The five people quickened their pace, and as they left the castle, they also planted a new goal in their hearts: not only to protect the world from darkness, but also to uncover the mystery of the guardian of light and explore deeper powers and missions.
On the road, passers-by looked sideways and whispered:
"Look, those young people have an unusual aura about them." An old man pointed at the backs of the five people with his cane and said to the child beside him, "I heard that they recently defeated a powerful dark magician. They are so brave!"
"Brother, are they heroes?" The child's eyes widened with admiration.
"Yes, child, they are messengers of light and heroes who protect us." The old man touched the child's head gently.
On the other side, several caravan members were discussing outside the tavern:
"Have you heard? Last night someone saw a beam of light streaking across the night sky and hitting an ancient castle, and then everything became quiet." One person said mysteriously.
"Could it be that group of young people who did it? It is said that they have been fighting against evil forces." Another person continued, his eyes full of amazement.
"It must be them! I knew it, how could ordinary people participate in a battle of that level?" A woman clapped her hands excitedly, "I really hope that one day I can see them in person, even if it's just from a distance."
The five people were completely unaware of this, as their minds had already leaped forward, thinking about how to face possible new challenges and how to strengthen the power of the Council of Light so that more people would join in protecting the light.
Night fell again, and the five people stopped at a small hotel and sat around the fire. The atmosphere was warm and serious.
"After going through so much, I think we all know that the road ahead will be even more difficult." Zhao Ming spoke first, his eyes scanning everyone one by one, "But there is one thing I am sure of, we are not fighting alone."
"That's right," Su Mo agreed. The Book of Wisdom lay quietly on the table, emitting a soft light. "The seeds of light have been sown. One day, they will bloom into a sea of flowers, illuminating every corner of the world."
"Before that," Lin Hao said with a confident smile, "we still have to improve ourselves and let those guys hiding in the dark know that the Messenger of Light is not to be trifled with."
Ajie raised his cup, and the others followed suit. The sound of metal colliding was particularly clear in the quiet night: "Cheers to light, to friendship, and to our everlasting faith!"
"Cheers!" Li Zixue responded with a smile, and the Book of Wisdom seemed to tremble slightly, as if it was also raising a toast to celebrate.
As laughter and warm vows filled the air, their eyes sparkled with determination and hope, knowing that even though the road ahead was long and unknown, with each other, nothing was impossible to overcome.
"Okay, after a rest, a new journey will begin again." Zhao Ming stood up and looked at the starry sky outside the window. He had a new direction in his mind. "Tomorrow, let's continue to move forward towards the depths of light!"
As their figures gradually walked away, the residents of the town still stood there, watching the group of young people go away, until they became just a few brave dots on the horizon.
"Mom, can they really find a way to fight the darkness?" A little boy tugged at his mother's clothes, his eyes full of longing.
"Yes, my dear child. As long as you have faith, light will always find a way to break through the darkness." The mother answered gently, with trust and hope in her eyes.
On the way to the ruins, the five people encountered unprecedented challenges. They passed through a dark forest full of dangers, which contained not only strange fog but also hidden ferocious creatures. Every step was like walking on thin ice, but they solved these problems one by one with their extraordinary wisdom and tacit understanding.
"This challenge is more difficult than any other." Li Zixue wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the Book of Wisdom automatically unfolded, shining brighter, illuminating the unknown road ahead.
"The more this happens, the closer we are to our goal." Zhao Ming gripped the hilt tightly, his eyes determined. His sword seemed to sense the master's determination and made a subtle sound.
As they were passing through a dense forest, suddenly, a thunderous roar broke the silence. A huge creature suddenly jumped out from the bushes. It was the oldest guardian of the forest - a huge monster covered with moss.
"Everyone be careful and get ready for battle!" Ajie responded quickly, his sword was unsheathed, and the aura of fighting emanated from his body.
The battle was extremely fierce, the power of the monster far exceeded their expectations, and the team was almost forced into a desperate situation several times. At the critical moment, Lin Hao suddenly remembered an ancient legend he heard in the tavern that night, about the weakness of the monster.
"I have an idea! Distract its attention, and I'll look for its weakness!" Lin Hao shouted loudly, and then swiftly moved through the woods, looking for the possible fatal point.
While Lin Hao successfully attracted the attention of the monster, Zhao Ming and Ajie cooperated tacitly, one attacking and one defending, buying time for Su Mo and Li Zixue, allowing them to perform more complex and powerful skills. The runes on Li Zixue's Book of Wisdom shone brightly, forming a protective net, while Su Mo's vines seemed to have life, flexibly binding the monster's limbs.
Finally, after Lin Hao discovered and attacked the monster's eyes, its legendary weakness, the monster howled in pain, its huge body fell to the ground with a loud bang, and the entire forest seemed to tremble.
"We...we did it!" Su Mo gasped and looked around in disbelief.
"Not only did we do it, we also learned an important lesson - in the face of difficulties, in addition to courage, wisdom is equally important." Zhao Ming walked to Lin Hao, patted him on the shoulder, his eyes full of appreciation.
As the sun sets, the five of them sit around the campfire, enjoying the tranquility after their victory. Lin Hao pulls out a mysterious stone tablet fragment that he accidentally obtained during the battle and hands it to Li Zixue.
"Look at this fragment. The Book of Wisdom should be able to tell us its origin." Lin Hao said.
Li Zixue took the fragment, and the Book of Wisdom opened automatically. The light gathered and projected a series of ancient images, which seemed to be telling a distant story about light and darkness, and the true purpose of the stone tablet.
"It seems that our journey is far from over." Li Zixue slowly closed the book, the light of the flame reflected in her eyes, "This fragment may be the key to opening the door to the ancient ruins."
"No matter how many unknowns and challenges lie ahead, we will face them together." Ajie said firmly, and the other three nodded, with the same determination and expectation flashing in their eyes.
As the night deepened, a crescent moon hung in the sky, casting a silver glow on their journey. The Death Mountains, this name has been ominous and awe-inspiring since ancient times. According to legend, it hides countless secrets and curses, and is also the only way to find clues to the Guardian of Light.
"Death Mountains, that doesn't sound like a place that welcomes tourists." Applejack joked, trying to ease the tension of stepping into unknown territory.
"Indeed, history and rumors have given it too many negative descriptions." Su Mo responded, gently flipping the Book of Wisdom in his hand, as if looking for information about the Death Mountain Range. "But we cannot be dominated by fear. Wisdom and courage are our best weapons."
As they moved forward, the mountain became steeper and steeper, and the wind seemed to carry a low whisper that made people feel cold. Suddenly, a rapid ground tremor interrupted the team's conversation. Not far away, the ground cracked and a huge rock monster slowly rose up, surrounded by cold mist.
"Another uninvited guest." Zhao Ming clenched his sword, his eyes sharp, "Everyone, stand apart, don't give it a chance to surround you."
The rock monster swung its huge arms, and every time it hit the ground, it caused a small earthquake. Lin Hao quickly analyzed the opponent's attack pattern. He noticed that the rock monster moved clumsily, but its attack power was amazing.
"I have a plan," Lin Hao said quickly, "Zhao Ming and Ajie, you are responsible for attracting attention from the front, and Su Mo, Li Zixue and I will find an opportunity to climb up behind it and attack its weak points."
The strategy was set, and the five people acted separately. Zhao Ming and Ajie bravely fought against the rock monster, while Lin Hao and the other two approached the target quietly with the cover of the rock. The Book of Wisdom in Li Zixue's hand shone with a strange light, guiding them to the safest path.
"Now!" Lin Hao found a suitable opportunity, and the three of them jumped up and landed accurately on the back of the rock monster. Su Mo's vines spread quickly, tightly binding the rock monster's arms, making it difficult for it to struggle.
"Found it!" Following the guidance of the Book of Wisdom, Li Zixue found a tiny crack on the neck of the rock monster. "This is its vital point. We must work together to attack it!"
The four of them gathered their strength, and Zhao Ming and Ajie also took the opportunity to retreat and join the attack. With a deafening roar, the rock monster finally couldn't hold on and turned into dust, leaving a pile of rubble.
"Along the way, we really have formed an indissoluble bond with all kinds of monsters." Ajie wiped the sweat off his forehead and raised a wry smile.
"Perhaps, this is the way to test whether we are worthy of the title of Guardian of Light." Su Mo sighed softly, and the Book of Wisdom emitted a soft light, as if silently agreeing.
After this series of battles, the tacit understanding and trust between the five people reached an unprecedented height. They continued to go deeper into the Death Mountains, and every step was full of unknowns and dangers, but also accompanied by growth and discovery.
Just as they were about to climb over a steep mountain, a sudden sight made them stop. Before their eyes was a secret valley hidden in the belly of the mountain, with green grass and fragrant flowers in the valley, which formed a sharp contrast with the appearance of the Death Mountain.
"This... this place doesn't seem like it should exist in the Death Mountains." Li Zixue said softly, and the Book of Wisdom automatically flipped, releasing a gentle light, as if it was also attracted by this mysterious place.
Just as they were immersed in the beautiful scenery, a blurry figure slowly emerged in the center of the valley. Gradually it became clear that it was an old man in an ancient robe. He held a lantern emitting warm light and his eyes were kind and deep.
"Welcome to the Valley of Destiny, young travelers." The old man spoke, his voice seemed to penetrate the long river of time, "I am the wise man guarding this place. For a long time, I have been waiting here for the destined person."
"The destined person?" Zhao Ming took a step forward, his eyes determined, "We are here to find clues about the Guardian of Light."
The old man smiled slightly, and that smile contained the wisdom of seeing through the world: "The wheel of fate has begun to turn, and the answer you are looking for is in this valley. But remember, the real test has just begun."
Following the guidance of the old man, the five people embarked on a journey of exploration deeper into the valley. They knew that what awaited them ahead was not only the answer, but also the ultimate test of their own beliefs and courage. (End of this chapter)
