**Chapter 263: A fierce battle with the forces of darkness**

After defeating the Dark Sword, Lin Yu and his companions breathed a sigh of relief, but the joy did not last long, because they knew that the dark forces would never give up.

They looked around and found no trace of other creatures in the ruins except them. But the suffocating dark breath still permeated the air, as if reminding them that the dark forces were still lurking in some corner.

At this moment, suddenly, a black shadow passed through the depths of the ruins, so fast that it was almost impossible to see its figure. The black shadow drew an arc in the air and pounced towards Lin Yu and his companions.

"Be careful!" Su Yao exclaimed, and the magic wand in her hand immediately turned into a ray of light and shot towards the black shadow.

The shadow collided with the magic wand, making a deafening sound. The shadow was knocked back a few steps, but did not suffer any substantial damage.

"What the hell is this?" Zhao Hao asked in horror.

"They must be assassins sent by the dark forces!" Li Yueran analyzed calmly, "They won't give up easily, and will definitely send more powerful people to deal with us."

Just as he finished speaking, another group of black shadows passed by. This time there were more of them and they were even faster, like a group of hungry wolves pouncing on their prey.

Lin Yu and his companions immediately dispersed, each casting magic and engaging in a fierce battle with the forces of darkness.

The dark killers were agile and swift in attack. They could quickly dodge magic attacks and counterattack even more fiercely. Lin Yu and his companions were in a tough fight for a while.

"Everyone, don't panic, keep your formation!" Lin Yu shouted, "We have to fight together to defeat the dark forces!"

Under Lin Yu's leadership, Lin Yu and his partners gradually stabilized their position and began to deal with the dark killers.

The battle lasted for a long time, and both sides paid a huge price. Lin Yu's swordsmanship became more and more sharp, Su Yao's magic became more and more accurate, Zhao Hao's fighting skills became more and more proficient, and Li Yueran's knowledge also helped them resolve many crises.

However, the dark forces did not seem to give up. They continuously sent killers to try to eliminate Lin Yu and his partners.

At this moment, suddenly, a powerful dark aura surged out from the depths of the ruins, and an invisible force enveloped all the dark killers.

"You are late!" An old voice came from the darkness, and a figure appeared in front of everyone.

This is an old man wearing a black robe. His face is covered with wrinkles, but his eyes are still as sharp as an eagle.

"Are you the legendary leader of the dark forces?" Lin Yu asked.

"That's right, I am the leader of the dark forces!" The old man sneered, "If you dare to come to my territory to cause trouble, you should be prepared to be eliminated!"

As soon as the old man finished speaking, a powerful dark energy burst out from his body and rushed towards Lin Yu and his companions.

Lin Yu and his companions immediately cast magic to resist the attack of the dark forces.

However, the attack of the dark forces was too powerful, and Lin Yu and his companions gradually lost and were defeated.

"We...we are no match for them!" Su Yao said in horror.

"We can't give up!" Lin Yu said firmly, "We must protect this relic and the Sword of the God of Creation!"

At this moment, Li Yueran suddenly shouted: "Everyone, look, what is that?"

Everyone looked in the direction Li Yueran pointed, and saw a ray of light shining from the depths of the ruins, illuminating the entire ruins.

It was a mysterious light that seemed to possess endless power and be able to resist the attacks of dark forces.

"That is... the light of the God of Creation!" Zhao Hao exclaimed.

"Yes, that is the light of the God of Creation!" Lin Yu said excitedly, "As long as we can get the light of the God of Creation, we will be able to defeat the forces of darkness!"

Lin Yu and his companions immediately rushed towards the direction of the light of the God of Creation.

The leader of the dark forces saw this and immediately stopped them, saying, "Don't even think about it!"

He waved the staff in his hand, and a beam of dark energy shot towards Lin Yu and his companions.

However, the power of the Creator God's light was too strong and easily blocked the dark energy.

Lin Yu and his companions took the opportunity to rush to the light of the God of Creation.

The light of the God of Creation emitted a dazzling glow, enveloping Lin Yu and his companions.

They felt a powerful force injected into their bodies, and their strength and speed were greatly enhanced.

"We...we have become stronger!" Su Yao said excitedly.

"Yes, we have become stronger!" Lin Yu said excitedly, "Now, we must defeat the dark forces!"

With the blessing of the light of the God of Creation, Lin Yu and his partners once again launched a fierce battle with the forces of darkness.

This time, they are no longer the weak party, they have the power to fight against the dark forces.

After a hard battle, Lin Yu and his partners finally defeated the dark forces completely.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the leader of the dark forces had no choice but to flee from the ruins.

Lin Yu and his companions finally defended the Sword of the God of Creation and protected the ruins.

However, they also know that this is just the beginning of their adventure.

They still have a long way to go and more challenges await them.
