Chapter 685 The Dark Aura Gradually Dissipates
However, just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, the mysterious man frowned and said solemnly: "Don't let your guard down. Although the Dark Lord has been destroyed, his dark aura has already infected this land. If we don't deal with it, there may be trouble in the future."
When everyone heard this, their hearts, which had just relaxed, became tense again.
Lin Ze stood there, looking around with a sharp gaze. He noticed that the land around him was turning dark and cracked, as if it was being eroded by a powerful dark force. The originally green flowers, plants and trees also lost their vitality in an instant, and quickly withered and died.
Lin Ze's heart tightened. He knew very well how terrible this dark force was. If he didn't find a solution in time, the whole world would be swallowed by darkness. He made a prompt decision and decided to lead everyone to find a way to purify this dark force.
When everyone heard Lin Ze's decision, they all agreed. They followed Lin Ze and embarked on a road full of unknowns. During the difficult exploration, they accidentally learned that in an ancient ruin, there was a magical object that could purify darkness.
This news gave Lin Ze and his companions hope, and they headed towards the ruins without hesitation. However, the journey was not smooth. The dark aura continued to breed various terrifying monsters, blocking their way.
Facing the attacks of these monsters, Lin Ze was not afraid. He exerted his powerful strength after fusion, worked closely with everyone, defeated the monsters again and again, and turned danger into safety.
After a long and arduous journey, Lin Ze and his companions finally arrived at the ruins. However, there were countless traps and tests hidden in the ruins, and they would die if they were not careful.
But Lin Ze and his companions did not back down. They supported each other and overcame difficulties one after another. Finally, they successfully found the legendary artifact.
The moment the sacred object was taken out, a dazzling light suddenly burst out.
This light was like a clear spring, quickly dispelling the darkness around.
As the light spread, the land began to recover its vitality. The originally dry and cracked land gradually became moist, and the withered flowers, plants and trees regained their vitality.
Everyone looked at this magical scene with joyful smiles on their faces. They knew that they had finally won the final victory in this desperate fight against darkness.
Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, the divine object suddenly trembled violently, and the light became brighter, enveloping everyone.
When the light faded, everyone was surprised to find that the divine object had turned into a mysterious old man.
The old man had a kind face, but with a hint of worry: "Although you have temporarily dispelled the dark aura, the Dark Lord has not truly perished. A trace of his residual soul has possessed one of you."
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed drastically and they looked at each other warily.
Lin Ze took a deep breath, as if he wanted to absorb all the fear and anxiety into his stomach, and then he slowly said: "No matter who it is, we will face it together." Although this sentence was short, it was full of strength and determination, which inspired everyone present.
However, at this moment, Xiao Li, the team member who had been silent all the time, suddenly changed. His eyes turned scarlet, as if he was controlled by a powerful force, and a strong dark aura emanated from his body. Everyone looked at him in amazement, and then they realized that he was the one who was possessed.
Xiao Li pounced on Lin Ze without warning like a mad beast. Seeing this, Lin Ze dodged the fatal blow swiftly. At the same time, he quickly mobilized the fused power in his body, ready to fight against this dark force.
The other team members also reacted and immediately joined the battle. They each used their own unique skills and started a thrilling battle with the possessed Xiao Li. For a moment, the fists whistled, the energy overflowed, and the whole scene was extremely chaotic.
Lin Ze kept observing Xiao Li's movements during the battle, looking for his flaws. Finally, during a confrontation, Lin Ze seized a fleeting opportunity, and without hesitation, he used the power of purification to directly bombard Xiao Li.
This purifying force was like the light of dawn, piercing through the dark haze. The possessed Xiao Li let out a painful howl, and the dark soul was unable to resist this powerful force and was forced out of Xiao Li's body.
The dark remnant soul struggled for a few times in mid-air, and finally dissipated into the air. As the dark remnant soul dissipated, Xiao Li's body returned to normal, and he fell softly to the ground, unconscious.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although this sudden crisis was temporarily resolved, they knew that this was just the beginning. Who was that mysterious old man? Why did he possess Xiao Li? These questions were like a fog that shrouded their hearts, making them feel unprecedented pressure.
However, no matter what awaits them in the future, Lin Ze and his teammates firmly believe that as long as they unite as one, they will be able to overcome any difficulties and challenges.
Just as everyone helped Xiao Li up, the mysterious old man slowly spoke: "The residual soul of the Dark Lord possessed him, hoping to infiltrate you and wait for the opportunity to cause trouble again.
I am the spirit that guards the sacred object. To thank you for taking it out, I will help you completely resolve the hidden danger."
Lin Ze nodded with gratitude, and then eagerly asked the old man what to do next. The old man told him solemnly that in order to completely destroy the Dark Lord, he must go to the birthplace of the Dark Lord, find his origin core and destroy it.
Hearing about this arduous task, the people did not hesitate at all, and they set out on the journey again without hesitation. Along the way, they encountered more strange dark traps and powerful monsters, but they always trusted each other, worked closely together, and successfully overcame danger again and again with their tenacious will and superb skills.
After a long and arduous journey, they finally arrived at that eerie place, where a huge black core exuded a terrifying aura that made people's hearts tremble, as if it was the source of the power of the Dark Lord.
Lin Ze took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and then without hesitation led everyone to release all their strength, attacking the core like a torrent. After the core was attacked, it trembled violently, and the dark power counterattacked like a raging tide.
However, the crowd was not frightened by this terrifying dark force. They gritted their teeth, did not flinch, and continued to attack the core with all their might. At the critical moment, the old man also helped. He exerted a mysterious power that echoed with the power of the crowd, forming a powerful combined force.
Finally, with everyone's unremitting efforts, the core could no longer withstand this powerful force and exploded. In an instant, the darkness dissipated like smoke, and the sun once again fell on the earth, warm and bright.
In this desperate battle with darkness, they finally achieved complete victory, and the world ushered in true peace.
