Chapter 331 Mysterious Giant Shadow, Danger Lurks Everywhere
The heavy footsteps echoed in the darkness, each one seeming to pound on the hearts of Huanmo and the others, pushing their nerves to the limit. The surrounding air seemed to solidify with this oppressive feeling, becoming unusually heavy. Huanmo gripped his sword tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, his heart pounding in his chest as his mind raced through the impending threat. "These footsteps are so heavy; whoever comes must be a behemoth. I wonder if we can handle it," he thought warily, a hint of tension in his eyes.
Yi Chen stood beside Huan Mo, tilting his head slightly, and said in a low voice, "Huan Mo, that sound is very ominous. We need to be prepared." Although his voice was calm, it couldn't hide the worry in it. The woman in white gently bit her lip, her hands tightly gripping the ribbon, her body trembling slightly, clearly sensing the impending danger as well.
As the footsteps drew closer, a massive black shadow gradually emerged from the darkness. The shadow was as large as a hill, its outline indistinct yet exuding an oppressive aura. Huanmo and the others stared wide-eyed at the shadow, trying to make out its appearance. When the shadow was fully revealed before them, everyone gasped in shock.
It was a gigantic monster, its entire body covered in hard scales, like armor. Its head was enormous, with sharp fangs, and its eyes gleamed with a fierce red light, as if they could see into the depths of their fear. The monster's limbs were thick and powerful; with each step it took, the ground trembled.
Huanmo took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and shouted, "Don't panic, everyone! Let's attack together and find its weakness!" Although he was filled with fear, he knew that he could not back down now. Yichen and the woman in white nodded, gripping their weapons tightly, ready for battle.
The monster let out a deafening roar, opened its blood-red maw, and spewed a torrent of scorching flames at Huanmo and the others. Huanmo shouted, "Scatter!" The group quickly dodged in all directions, the flames grazing their bodies and distorting the surrounding air. Huanmo thought to himself, "This monster is not only incredibly strong, but it can also breathe fire. It's really troublesome."
He seized a moment when the monster was breathing fire, leaped into the air, and thrust his sword towards its neck. However, the monster's scales were exceptionally hard, and the sword only left a shallow scratch. The monster, in pain, angrily shook its head, flinging Huanmo away. Huanmo somersaulted in the air and landed steadily on the ground, inwardly anxious: "This won't do; I can't hurt it at all."
Taking advantage of the situation, Yi Chen and the woman in white launched an attack from both sides of the monster. Yi Chen's spear pierced the monster's leg, while the woman in white's ribbon wrapped around one of its arms. The monster roared in pain and struggled frantically. With a powerful swing of its arm, it flung the woman in white away, who fell to the ground, a trickle of blood escaping from the corner of her mouth.
Seeing this, Huanmo's heart tightened, and he shouted, "Baiyi, are you alright!" Filled with anger and worry, he charged at the monster again, trying to distract it. Just then, the little girl from before suddenly shouted, "Attack its belly! The scales are thinner there!"
Upon hearing this, Huanmo was overjoyed and quickly adjusted his attack direction, charging towards the monster's abdomen. Yichen also understood Huanmo's intention and cooperated, attacking the monster's abdomen from the other side. The monster seemed to sense their intentions and began to struggle even more frantically, trying to protect its abdomen.
Huanmo and Yichen worked in perfect harmony, constantly seeking opportunities to attack the monster's abdomen. Finally, through their combined efforts, Huanmo's sword pierced between the monster's scales. The monster let out a painful roar and swayed a few times. Huanmo was overjoyed, twisted the sword forcefully, and then swiftly withdrew it. A large amount of blood flowed from the monster's abdomen, and its movements became sluggish.
Taking advantage of the monster's injury, Yi Chen and the woman in white rejoined the battle, and the three of them launched an attack together. The monster finally couldn't hold on any longer, letting out a desperate roar before collapsing to the ground, where it remained motionless.
Huanmo and the others breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground, their clothes soaked with sweat. Huanmo looked at his companions, a warm feeling welling up in his heart: "Thank goodness everyone is alright. This battle was too difficult."
They rested for a while, then got up and continued along the glowing path. Strange patterns began to appear on the walls on both sides of the path, as if telling an ancient story. Huanmo and the others walked and observed these patterns, but they could not understand their meaning.
Suddenly, the path ahead vanished, replaced by a vast circular hall. In the center of the hall stood a massive stone platform, radiating a soft light. Huanmo and the others entered the hall, cautiously observing their surroundings.
Just then, countless torches suddenly lit up around the hall, illuminating the entire space. Huanmo and the others then discovered that the walls of the hall were covered with densely packed characters. Yichen stepped forward, carefully examining the characters, and said, "These characters look very ancient; they seem to record information about divine artifacts."
Huanmo was overjoyed and said, "Then let's quickly see if we can find any clues about the artifact." Everyone gathered around and began to study the writing on the wall.
However, just as they were engrossed in studying the text, suddenly, the floor of the hall began to shake. Huanmo was startled and looked up to see the ceiling above the stone platform slowly opening, and a huge black sphere descending from above. The black sphere emitted a powerful suction force, distorting the surrounding air.
Huanmo and the others were stunned by this sudden turn of events. They didn't know what the black sphere was, nor what kind of danger it would bring.
What is the purpose of this black sphere? Will Huanmo and the others be able to find clues to the artifact in this perilous hall? How will they deal with this new threat? Everything is still unknown, waiting for them to unravel the mystery.
