Chapter 385 The Power of Runes, Peril Arises Again
The runes emitted a mysterious light, like a suddenly rising sun, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime. The mysterious power, centered on the runes, surged towards the mysterious figure and the pillar of black flames like a raging tide. Huanmo was struck by the energy beam; his body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His vision was blurred, and he felt dizzy, but the instinct for survival and worry for his companions made him endure the pain and try to see the situation clearly. "This runic power… can it save everyone?" he prayed silently, a hint of expectation and worry in his eyes.
Ignoring his own injuries, Yi Chen rushed towards Huan Mo with burning anxiety. Seeing Huan Mo injured and lying on the ground, his heart felt like it was being ripped apart. "Huan Mo, hold on!" he shouted, his voice trembling slightly. At the same time, he warily watched the mysterious figure shrouded in mysterious power, wary of any sudden action. Yi Chen knew that their situation remained extremely dangerous; the slightest mistake could mean certain death for everyone.
The woman in white, enduring the pain of being thrown off, ran towards Huanmo and Yichen. Tears welled in her eyes, her heart filled with fear and worry. "Everyone, please be alright..." she sobbed softly, glancing intermittently at the mysterious figure shrouded in light as she ran, the unknown, enigmatic power filling her with unease.
The mysterious figure, trapped within the runic light, roared furiously. Its body twisted and struggled within the light, attempting to break free from the constraints of this mysterious power. The black flame pillar rapidly dissipated under the impact of the runic power, turning into wisps of black smoke that drifted into the air. However, the mysterious figure seemed unwilling to give up easily; its malevolent aura intensified, engaging in a fierce battle with the runic power. Light and darkness intertwined, colliding to create dazzling sparks, and the entire hall trembled under the impact of this powerful force.
"This mysterious figure is incredibly powerful. Can the power of the runes suppress it?" Yi Chen frowned, speaking with concern. He gripped the broken spear tightly, ready to rejoin the battle at any moment. Although the previous battle had left him exhausted, he mustered his courage to protect his companions.
Huanmo struggled to his feet, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. His face was ashen, and his body swayed precariously, but his eyes remained resolute. "No matter what, we cannot give up. This runic power might be our turning point." He knew that if he hesitated now, all his previous efforts would be in vain. He focused his mind, attempting to channel the power of the divine artifact once more into the fight against the mysterious figure. However, the heavy blow he had just received had hindered the flow of his spiritual energy, and the artifact's light had become extremely dim.
The mysterious figure struggled frantically amidst the runic light, its body gradually changing. Its once tall and twisted form began to shrink, but became more condensed, its malevolent aura growing increasingly intense, as if all its power had been concentrated into one. Suddenly, it let out a deafening roar, and a black energy vortex erupted from its body, clashing with the runic power. The runic light began to fluctuate under the impact of the energy vortex, its glow flickering erratically.
"Not good, it's fighting desperately!" Huanmo exclaimed in alarm. He exerted all his strength, guiding the divine artifact to emit a faint light, shooting it towards the mysterious figure. Yichen also wielded his broken spear, its tip shimmering with a faint blue light, joining the attack. The woman in white transformed her ribbons into streaks of light, flying towards the mysterious figure in an attempt to disrupt its movements.
However, the power of the mysterious figures was simply too overwhelming; their attacks were like ants trying to shake a tree, causing negligible damage. The black energy vortex of the mysterious figures continued to expand, the runic light was gradually suppressed, and darkness began to spread back into the hall.
“This won’t do; we need to find a way to enhance the power of the runes,” Huanmo said anxiously. He looked around, trying to find a way to strengthen the runes. Suddenly, he noticed a circular stone platform in the center of the hall, covered with runes similar to those on the walls and floor. Moreover, the runes on the platform were shimmering with a faint light, seemingly echoing the runes around them.
"Everyone, follow me! Perhaps the runes on the stone platform hold the key!" Huanmo said as she ran towards the stone platform. Yichen and the woman in white followed closely behind.
When they arrived at the stone platform, Huanmo noticed a groove on it, the shape of which closely resembled the bottom of the divine artifact. "Could it be that we're going to put the divine artifact into the groove?" Huanmo's heart stirred. Without the slightest hesitation, he placed the divine artifact into the groove.
As soon as the artifact was placed into the slot, the runes on the stone platform shone brightly, and a powerful force surged from the platform, rapidly spreading along the runes on the ground and walls. The power of the runes was greatly enhanced, gradually suppressing the black energy vortex of the mysterious figure.
The mysterious figure seemed to sense the danger, letting out a frenzied roar and increasing its power once more. The black energy vortex expanded violently, engaging in a final battle with the runic power. For a moment, light and darkness intertwined in the hall, and the powerful fluctuations made everyone almost lose their footing.
Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, the mysterious figure suddenly changed its attack direction. Instead of directly confronting the runic power, it concentrated its black energy into a single point and shot it towards Huanmo and the others. This black energy was like a black lightning bolt, moving with incredible speed, and arrived before them in an instant.
