Chapter 486 The Perils of Another World Are Overcome with Laughter, and the Dark Conspiracy Graduall
The perilous situation in the other world is resolved with laughter, and the dark conspiracy gradually becomes clear.
The rhinoceros-like winged monster charged menacingly, stirring up a gust of wind. Pigsy, his eyes squinting from the wind, shouted, "What is that thing? It looks so ugly and yet it dares to scare people!" With that, he shouldered his nine-toothed rake and charged at the monster with all his might, yelling, "Let me, Old Pig, teach you a lesson!"
Seeing Pigsy charging towards them, the monster stomped its foot, instantly splitting the ground open. Sharp stone spikes erupted from the ground, piercing towards Pigsy. Pigsy cried out "Ouch!" and quickly dodged to the side, but was still accidentally grazed by a stone spike. "You ugly creature, you even know how to use underhanded tricks!"
Xiao Tian, watching anxiously from the side, barked twice and pulled out a magical artifact resembling a slingshot. This slingshot was no ordinary weapon; instead of shooting pebbles, it fired small balls radiating multicolored light. Upon hitting the monster, the balls instantly released a powerful force, forcing the monster to stagger back several steps.
While shaking her bell to emit sound waves that would interfere with the monster, Xiaoqing shouted, "Bajie, don't just think about brute force, we have to cooperate!"
Fahai clasped his hands together, his palms gleaming with Buddhist light, and chanted, "Amitabha! Let this humble monk lend you a hand." The Buddhist light enveloped the monster, noticeably slowing it down. The monster struggled within the light, letting out angry roars.
Taking advantage of the monster being distracted by the Buddha's light, Er Gou slithered behind it like a ghost, his dagger flashing coldly as he stabbed at the monster's leg joint. The monster, in pain, flung its leg away, sending Er Gou flying. "Er Gou!" Ling Yue cried out anxiously.
Seeing this, Xiao Tian took out a small shield magic item, flew to Er Gou's side, and the shield instantly unfolded, blocking the monster's subsequent attacks for Er Gou. Er Gou stood up, nodded to Xiao Tian, and said, "Thanks, Xiao Tian."
Seizing the opportunity, Liu Yu unleashed his ultimate sword technique, sending a sword aura like lightning towards the monster, striking its wing squarely. The monster's wing was slashed by the sword aura, bleeding profusely, and it could no longer hold on, collapsing to the ground with a thud.
The crowd gathered around, watching the fallen monster warily. The monster's body gradually dissipated, leaving only a faintly glowing crystal.
“This crystal looks interesting,” Lingyue said, picking it up and examining it closely.
Pigsy leaned closer and asked curiously, "Lingyue, what is this thing? Is it a treasure?"
Lingyue shook her head. "It's not clear yet, but the energy fluctuations on this crystal are somewhat similar to the dark forces we encountered before, yet also different. It might be something unique to this world."
The group continued their exploration of this strange space. Along the way, they encountered many bizarre creatures and various wondrous sights. Some plants could talk, constantly chanting incomprehensible spells; some rivers flowed with golden liquid, emitting an alluring fragrance.
Xiao Tian was filled with curiosity about these new things. One moment it ran to tease the talking plant, and the next it barked at the golden river. Suddenly, as if it had discovered something, it excitedly ran forward.
The group followed Xiaotian to a massive black castle. The castle was eerie and terrifying, shrouded in black mist, and its walls were carved with various sinister patterns.
“This castle has an eerie aura about it; there’s definitely something wrong with it,” Liu Yu said, frowning.
Pigsy gripped his nine-toothed rake tightly. "Whatever, we've come this far. Let's go in and see if we can find a way back, and maybe we can also expose the dark forces' conspiracy."
The group cautiously entered the castle. The castle was extremely dark, with only a few dimly lit lamps barely illuminating the path. Suddenly, a group of dark figures surged in from all directions. These figures were elusive and unpredictable, and in an instant, they surrounded the group.
"What are these things? How do we fight them?" Xiaoqing asked anxiously.
Xiao Tian tilted his head and thought for a moment, then took out a magical artifact resembling a flashlight from his person. The artifact emitted a strong beam of light, shining it on the dark figures. After being illuminated by the light, the dark figures revealed their forms; they turned out to be a group of little devils with bat wings.
"Now that I see you clearly, things will be much easier!" Pigsy said, brandishing his nine-toothed rake and striking at the little devils. The little devils nimbly dodged Pigsy's attacks, occasionally letting out sharp screams that hurt the eardrums.
Fahai unleashed his Buddhist light, attempting to purify the demons. Wherever the light touched, the demons screamed in agony. Er Gou weaved through the demons, attacking their vitals with his dagger. Xiao Qing shook her bell, the powerful sound waves disorienting some of the demons.
However, the number of demons seemed endless, surging in wave after wave. "This can't go on. We have to find their source and cut off their path," Liu Yu shouted.
Xiao Tian seemed to understand Liu Yu's words. It ran around the castle and finally found a black magic circle in a corner. The magic circle was continuously summoning imps.
Xiao Tian barked a few times at the magic circle, signaling to everyone. Ling Yue stepped forward and carefully studied the magic circle. "This magic circle is very complex. It will take some time to decipher it."
Just as Lingyue was studying the magic circle, the imps attacked everyone even more frantically. While fending off the imps' attacks, Zhu Bajie shouted, "Lingyue, you'd better hurry! This old pig can't hold on much longer!"
Xiao Tian once again utilized the advantages of his magical artifact, pulling out a small jammer and firing interference waves at the magic circle. Under Xiao Tian's interference, the magic circle's operation became somewhat disordered, and the summoning speed of the little devils noticeably slowed down.
Lingyue seized the opportunity and swiftly cast a spell, breaking the magic circle. As the magic circle broke, the imps vanished without a trace.
"Phew, finally solved." Pigsy wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The group continued deeper into the castle. Deep within, they discovered a vast, secret chamber. The door to the chamber was tightly shut, and its surface was covered with strange runes.
Xiao Tian circled the door a few times, then pulled out a rune reader from his person. After scanning the runes on the door with the reader, Xiao Tian barked a few times, and the runes began to change automatically, causing the door to slowly open.
"Xiao Tian, this magic weapon of yours has really been a great help." Xiao Qing smiled and patted Xiao Tian's head.
The group entered the secret chamber, where a huge black crystal ball sat in the center. The crystal ball emitted powerful dark energy, and there were several parchment scrolls around it.
Liu Yu stepped forward and picked up the parchment scroll, which revealed a shocking conspiracy by the dark forces. It turned out that the dark forces had discovered the connection between this strange space and their own world, and were attempting to use the space's special power to open a gateway to various worlds, spreading darkness everywhere.
"Their ambitions are too great!" Lingyue said angrily.
Pigsy brandished his nine-toothed rake, shouting, "I, Old Pig, will absolutely not let them succeed!"
Just then, the door to the secret chamber suddenly slammed shut, and several enormous dark warriors appeared on the wall. The dark warriors, wielding greatswords, walked towards the group.
"You've come at the right time! We just found out about your conspiracy and were just about to settle accounts with you!" Pigsy went up to them without fear.
A fierce battle erupted once again. The Dark Knight was incredibly powerful, each swing of his sword carrying immense force, and he fought the group to a standstill.
Xiao Tian paced anxiously to the side, when suddenly its eyes lit up and it pulled out a magical artifact from its body. This artifact looked like a small projector. Xiao Tian pointed the artifact at the dark warrior and projected some strange images.
Upon seeing these images, the Dark Knight froze on the spot, as if trapped in some kind of hallucination. "Xiao Tian, what are you projecting?" Er Gou asked curiously.
Xiao Tian barked twice, as if to say, "These are images of their inner fears."
Taking advantage of the Dark Warrior's momentary lapse in concentration, the group seized the opportunity to launch their attack. Liu Yu's sword energy, Zhu Bajie's nine-toothed rake, Xiao Qing's sonic waves, Fahai's Buddhist light, and Er Gou's dagger all hurtled towards the Dark Warrior.
With the combined attack of everyone, the dark warriors were finally defeated and disappeared in black smoke.
"That was close! I almost died here," Pigsy said, panting heavily.
Everyone looked at the black crystal ball in the center, knowing it was the key to the dark forces' conspiracy. "We have to find a way to destroy this crystal ball and stop the dark forces' plot," Liu Yu said.
Lingyue carefully examined the crystal ball. "The energy contained in this crystal ball is too powerful. Destroying it directly might cause a huge explosion. We need to find a safe way."
Xiao Tian barked beside it, then pulled out a small energy absorber from its person. It ran to the crystal ball and attached the energy absorber to it. The energy absorber began to slowly absorb the energy from the crystal ball, and the crystal ball's light gradually dimmed.
"Xiao Tian, this magic weapon of yours is a real lifesaver!" Xiao Qing said excitedly.
Thanks to Xiao Tian's efforts, the crystal ball's energy was successfully absorbed. As the energy dissipated, the crystal ball shattered into a pile of fragments.
The group successfully thwarted a major conspiracy by the dark forces, found a way to leave this strange space, and returned to the castle.
Back at the castle, the group revealed the dark forces' plot to everyone. The people in the castle were shocked by the dark forces' ambitions, but also admired the group's bravery.
After this adventure, Xiaotian's status in the castle became even more important, and its strange and wonderful magical treasures became a popular topic of conversation.
However, everyone knew that the dark forces would surely have other schemes. They continued to strengthen their defenses and strive to improve their strength. Xiao Tian also trained with everyone every day, always ready to meet new challenges.
One day, a mysterious merchant came to the castle. He pushed a cart full of all sorts of strange items, claiming that these items had magical effects.
Xiao Tian smelled the stranger's scent and was the first to run out. It circled the mysterious merchant a few times, then barked twice at him.
The mysterious merchant smiled and said, "This little dog is so cute. I have many good things here; perhaps it will like some of them." As he spoke, he took out a small magical artifact from the carriage, which looked like a glowing bone.
When Xiao Tian saw the glowing bone, his eyes lit up, and he excitedly jumped around the merchant.
"What kind of magic weapon is this?" Pigsy asked, coming out as well.
The mysterious merchant smiled and explained, "This is a magical artifact that can unleash the potential power of your pet. Wearing it will make your pet even stronger. This little dog is so clever, it would definitely suit it perfectly."
Pigsy scratched his head. "Sounds good, Little Tian. Do you want to give it a try?"
Xiao Tian barked twice, seemingly indicating his willingness. Just as Xiao Tian was about to take the magic weapon, Ling Yue suddenly shouted, "Wait! Be careful, it might be a trap!"...
