Chapter 375 A Dark Shadow Appears Suddenly, A Desperate Scheme

The earth trembled more violently, as if an irresistible force was wreaking havoc on the space. The enormous figure slowly rising from the ground was tightly shrouded in thick black mist, like a demon god from the abyss, exuding a chilling sense of oppression. Every gust of air emanating from the shadowy figure felt like a sharp blade, cutting painfully into everyone's skin.

Huanmo's heart pounded violently, as if it would burst from his chest. He stared intently at the dark figure, his grip on the divine weapon tightening unconsciously until his knuckles turned white. "What is this thing? Why does it exert such immense pressure?" Fear surged within him like a tidal wave, but he knew he couldn't panic; his companions were counting on him to lead them through this crisis.

Yi Chen gripped the broken gun tightly. Although the gun was battered and bruised from the previous battle, his eyes remained resolute. However, his slightly trembling arm betrayed his inner tension. "Whoever you are, if you want to hurt us, you'll have to get past me first!" he roared, trying to dispel the fear in his heart and also to bolster his companions' morale.

The woman in white was deathly pale, her body trembling uncontrollably. She clutched the ribbon tightly, as if it were her only support in this terrifying situation. "Can...can we really make it through?" Her voice was filled with despair, her eyes brimming with deep fear of the unknown.

The mysterious figure frowned, his eyes revealing gravity and contemplation. He struggled to resist the powerful oppressive aura while frantically searching his mind for any information about the shadowy figure. "This shadowy figure's aura is extremely ancient and malevolent, far surpassing any of the enemies we've encountered before. We must be extremely careful; the slightest mistake could lead to utter destruction."

As the shadow gradually rose, the surrounding environment underwent an eerie transformation. The once bright forest was now shrouded in a dark hue, and even the sunlight seemed to fear the power of the shadow, unable to penetrate the thick fog. The trees, battered by the raging wind, howled and wailed, as if lamenting the impending disaster.

Suddenly, the dark figure let out a low roar, a roar like rolling thunder that exploded in everyone's ears, making their eardrums ache. Immediately afterward, the dark figure extended a gigantic black arm and slammed it down towards Huanmo and the others. The arm sliced ​​through the air with a sharp whistling sound, and wherever it passed, space seemed to distort.

"Get out of the way!" Huanmo shouted, and everyone scattered in different directions. The enormous arm slammed into the ground, instantly creating a huge crater, sending dust and rocks flying everywhere. Yichen couldn't dodge in time and was struck in the back by a flying rock, causing him to cough up a mouthful of blood.

"Yichen!" Huanmo called out anxiously. He was extremely worried, looking at his injured companion with both concern and anger. "Passively dodging like this is not a solution. We must take the initiative and find its weakness!" Huanmo said as he guided the power of the divine artifact, trying to find an opening in the shadowy figure.

The mysterious figure rapidly formed hand seals while chanting incantations. Golden runes flew from his hands, shooting towards the dark figure. As the runes approached the figure, they were blocked by the surrounding black mist, hissing and dissipating into the air. "This dark figure has a very strong defense; our attacks are unlikely to cause any real damage," the mysterious figure thought, his brow furrowed, inwardly groaning.

The woman in white danced with her ribbon, which struggled against the wind as it flew towards the dark figure, attempting to disrupt its movements. However, the ribbon was repelled by an invisible force the moment it approached the figure, and the woman in white staggered back a few steps due to the force of the rebound.

Huanmo grew increasingly anxious as he watched his companions' attacks being easily neutralized. He carefully observed the shadowy figure's every move, trying to find its weakness. Suddenly, he noticed strange patterns appearing on the ground beneath the shadowy figure's feet each time it launched an attack. These patterns seemed to be somehow connected to the shadowy figure's power.

"Look, everyone! The patterns under the shadowy figure's feet might be the key! Let's try to attack there; maybe we can break through its defenses!" Huanmo shouted.

Despite the pain in his back, Yi Chen nodded and said, "Alright, I'll distract it, you guys take the opportunity to attack its feet!" With that, Yi Chen swung his broken spear and charged towards the shadowy figure, shouting loudly in an attempt to provoke it.

As expected, the shadowy figure was drawn to Yi Chen. It turned around and stretched out its arm again, striking at Yi Chen. Yi Chen nimbly weaved through the trees, dodging the shadowy figure's attacks while continuously wielding the broken spear to harass it.

Huanmo seized the opportunity and channeled the power of the divine artifact, sending a beam of light towards the patterns beneath the shadowy figure's feet. The mysterious figure and the woman in white also launched their attacks. The mysterious figure formed hand seals, unleashing a powerful golden beam of light towards the shadowy figure's feet, while the woman in white transformed her ribbon into a sharp blade, following closely behind.

The three attacks struck the patterns beneath the shadowy figure's feet almost simultaneously. The figure roared in anger, its body trembling slightly. Cracks appeared in the ground beneath its feet, and the black mist became somewhat disordered.

"Looks like we've found the right direction, keep attacking!" Huanmo shouted excitedly. Encouraged, the group intensified their attacks. However, the shadowy figure seemed to sense the danger. It ignored Yichen and focused all its attention on Huanmo and the others. The black mist around the shadowy figure rapidly condensed, forming an even stronger defensive barrier that resisted their attacks.

"The defense has gotten stronger, what should we do?" the woman in white asked anxiously. Huanmo gritted his teeth and said, "We can't give up. Everyone, concentrate your strength and try to break through its defense!"

Just as everyone was preparing to launch another attack, the dark figure suddenly opened its maw, and a beam of black energy shot towards them. Wherever the energy beam passed, trees instantly turned to ash, and the ground was scorched with a deep trench.

Can Huanmo and the others withstand this powerful energy beam? How will they break through the shadow's defenses and find a way to defeat it? And what secrets are hidden behind this shadow? Everything remains unknown; danger, like a heavy gloom, tightly shrouds Huanmo and the others…
