Chapter 670 Don’t Be Too Modest
Just when everyone thought they were safe for the time being, the old man's face suddenly turned very ugly. "Not good, although the seal has been strengthened, the movement just now has attracted a more powerful evil creature."
As soon as he finished speaking, a roar even more terrifying than before came from the depths of the passage, and the ground shook.
In the darkness, a huge evil creature emitting black demonic energy appeared in the passage as if it had slowly crawled out of hell. Every step it took seemed to be stepping on people's hearts. Along with the heavy footsteps, the walls of the passage began to drop stones, as if the entire passage was shaking.
The old man standing at the front frowned, knowing the horror of this evil creature. He did not hesitate to let Lin Ze and others hide behind him, then held the staff, chanted something, and launched powerful magic attacks like meteors towards the evil creature. However, the strength of this evil creature was far beyond those encountered before, and although the old man's magic was amazing, it could only temporarily stop its progress.
Lin Ze and his companions watched this scene, feeling extremely anxious. They looked at each other, and it seemed that they had reached some kind of tacit understanding. Without any hesitation, they gripped their weapons again, shouted in unison, and rushed towards the evil creature without hesitation like a group of fearless warriors, helping the old man to fight this terrible enemy.
For a moment, the passage was once again shrouded in fierce fighting, with the sounds of magic and weapons colliding and shouting intertwined, deafening. Lin Ze and his companions tried their best to fight a life-and-death battle with the evil creature.
Just when everyone was trying their best, Lin Ze suddenly caught a glimpse of a faint glowing spot on the evil creature. He looked closely and was secretly delighted. Could this be the evil creature's weakness? He didn't have time to think about it. He saw the right opportunity and rushed over like lightning. The weapon in his hand, with a fierce momentum, fiercely stabbed at the weak spot.
There was a shrill roar, and the body of the evil creature trembled violently, obviously it had been severely injured. Its strength weakened in an instant, and its originally indomitable momentum also stagnated.
Seeing this, the old man's eyes flashed with joy. He immediately seized this opportunity and cast his strongest magic. A dazzling light, like a burning meteor, hit the evil creature directly.
With a loud bang, the body of the evil creature was blown to pieces in the light, and the black evil spirit dissipated. The passage finally returned to peace, with only the rubble and traces of the battle on the ground, proving the thrilling battle just now.
Lin Ze and his companions panted tiredly, but their faces were filled with the joy of victory. Although the battle was difficult, they successfully eliminated the evil creature and were one step closer to uncovering the secrets of this mysterious area.
Just as everyone was celebrating their victory, a strange red light suddenly lit up at the end of the passage.
"Oh no, there's still danger!" the old man shouted.
In the red light, countless tiny black tentacles spread out and quickly surrounded them.
These tentacles were extremely tough, like steel, and the weapons in the hands of the companions could only leave shallow marks when they chopped them, without even causing any damage. Facing such a powerful enemy, everyone felt despair.
Lin Ze was so anxious that a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. He suddenly remembered the scene of the evil creature's weak spot glowing just now, and his mind moved. Could it be that these tentacles also have similar weaknesses? He widened his eyes and observed these tentacles carefully. Sure enough, he found that there was a weak core at the intersection of them, looming.
Lin Ze made a quick decision and decided to go all out. He took a deep breath, gathered all his strength into the weapon in his hand, and then rushed to the core again without hesitation.
However, just as he was about to approach the core, a tentacle seemed to sense his intention, and suddenly wrapped around his ankle, swung it hard, and threw him out.
Lin Ze drew an arc in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground. He felt that all the bones in his body were about to fall apart, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth. But he did not give up, and endured the severe pain, struggling to get up from the ground.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, tightly grasped the weapon in his hand, and launched another attack. This time, his speed was faster and his strength was stronger, like an arrow shot from a bow, stabbing straight towards the core.
Finally, he succeeded in piercing the core! With a "pop" sound, the core was pierced, and a stream of black liquid gushed out. Those tentacles that were originally baring their fangs and claws suddenly seemed to lose their vitality and shrank and dissipated.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily. The old man looked at Lin Ze approvingly and said, "You are really reliable at the critical moment!"
Lin Ze's mouth slightly lifted up, revealing a brilliant smile. Although the pain in his body was still clearly felt, his heart was filled with a strong sense of accomplishment. He took a deep breath and then slowly said, "This is not all my credit. If it weren't for everyone's tacit cooperation, how could I have achieved such success alone?"
The old man at the side smiled and waved his hand, interrupting Lin Ze's words, "Okay, young man, don't be so modest." There was a hint of relief in his voice, "This operation can be so smooth, it really depends on everyone's efforts. However, we can't stay here for too long, let's move on and see how many unknown secrets are hidden in this mysterious area waiting for us to uncover."
Lin Ze nodded, indicating his agreement with the old man. He stretched his body and felt a little better, so he and the others began to pack their bags and prepare to continue to go deeper into the passage.
They continued to go deeper into the passage, but it became narrower and narrower. The walls were flashing with a faint green light, as if there were countless pairs of eyes hiding and peeping at them.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake violently and huge rocks fell from above.
Everyone dodged in a hurry, but Lin Ze was quick-witted and pulled his companion who was almost hit by the boulder.
After finally avoiding the stone circle, a door emitting a strange blue light appeared in front of me.
The old man stepped forward to check, his expression instantly becoming serious: "The runes on this door are ancient forbidden spells. Forcing it open will cause a huge disaster."
Just when everyone was at a loss, Lin Ze discovered some strange patterns on the stone wall next to the door, which seemed to be some kind of mechanism.
He tried pressing the patterns, and the door opened slowly.
Behind the door was a huge cave filled with thick fog.
Faintly, a huge figure appeared in the fog, accompanied by a low roar.
Everyone held their weapons tightly and walked into the cave cautiously. A new battle seemed to be about to begin.
