Chapter 330: Mystery of Shadow
Facing the sudden appearance of the dark magician, the alliance's warriors immediately went on alert. Shen Mo stared at the opponent with sharp eyes, and the artifact in his hand emitted a faint light.
"You minions of darkness, don't even think about stopping us!" Shen Mo shouted angrily.
The dark magicians laughed eerily, and quickly formed a circle, chanting something, and began to cast dark magic. Suddenly, black energy swirled in the hall.
Seeing this, Lin Yuwei quickly cast a protective magic, and a layer of transparent light curtain enveloped the alliance's warriors.
"Everyone be careful, their magic is very powerful!" Lin Yuwei shouted.
Qingfeng and the female general were not afraid and led the soldiers to charge at the dark magician. The two sides launched a fierce battle of magic and force.
The magic attacks of the dark magicians fell on the light curtain like raindrops, causing ripples. Lin Yuwei gritted her teeth and tried her best to maintain the protective magic, with fine beads of sweat oozing from her forehead.
Shen Mo saw the right moment, broke through the dark magician's defense, and rushed towards the stone platform. However, a powerful dark magician stood in front of him and cast a dark barrier to prevent Shen Mo from getting close.
"Your attempt will not succeed!" the dark magician sneered.
Shen Mo glared angrily, wielded the artifact, and started a desperate fight with the dark magician. The artifact collided with the dark magic, emitting a dazzling light and a strong impact.
On the other side, the soldiers led by Qingfeng and the female general were also in a tough battle. The dark magicians' magic was strange and changeable, making it difficult for the soldiers to deal with it. But the soldiers relied on their tenacious will and close cooperation to repel the dark magicians' attacks again and again.
"Everyone hold on, we can't retreat!" Qingfeng shouted loudly to boost morale.
The female general keenly observed the dark magicians' weaknesses during the battle and commanded the soldiers to launch effective counterattacks.
At this time, Lin Yuwei's protective magic began to crack because it had suffered too many attacks.
"Oh no, the magic can't hold up!" Lin Yuwei shouted anxiously.
Su Yao saw this scene from behind and was extremely anxious. She suddenly thought of some herbal knowledge she had learned in medical treatment, which might be used to interfere with the magic of the dark magician.
"Everyone cover me!" Su Yao shouted.
Under the cover of the soldiers, Su Yao quickly rushed to the battlefield. She took out some special herbal powder from her arms and sprinkled it at the dark magicians.
The moment these herbal powders came into contact with dark magic, they produced a strange reaction, causing the dark magicians' magic to be temporarily disrupted.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Mo finally broke through the dark magician's obstruction and successfully climbed onto the stone platform. He reached out and picked up the book emitting dark light.
The moment he touched the book, a powerful dark force surged into his body. Shen Mo felt a sharp pain and almost dropped the book.
"Silence!" Lin Yuwei exclaimed.
Shen Mo endured the pain, tightly grasped the book, and tried hard to resist the erosion of the dark power.
"I can do it!" he said through gritted teeth.
After a fierce inner struggle, Shen Mo finally succeeded in suppressing the dark power and began to read books.
"It contains the secret of the Heart of Shadow, but it is sealed by a powerful magic." Shen Mo said.
Lin Yuwei hurried over and said, "Let me try to break this seal."
After Lin Yuwei's efforts, the seal was finally opened and the contents of the book were revealed to them.
"It turns out that the Heart of Shadow is hidden in the deepest part of the ruins, where there are numerous mechanisms and powerful guardians." Shen Mo said.
At this point, the dark magicians realized that their plan had failed and began to launch frantic attacks in an attempt to take the book back.
"Retreat!" Shen Mo ordered.
The Alliance warriors fought and retreated, and finally left the hall and continued to advance into the depths of the ruins.
Along the way, they encountered more traps and obstacles. Flames suddenly burst out from the narrow passage, huge cracks appeared on the ground, and rocks fell from overhead from time to time.
But under Shen Mo's leadership, everyone supported each other and carefully avoided one danger after another.
"Come on everyone, we are almost at our destination." Shen Mo encouraged everyone.
Finally, they arrived in front of a huge door. The door was engraved with complex runes and patterns, emitting a mysterious light.
"This should be the place where the Heart of Shadow is stored." Lin Yuwei said.
Shen Mo took a deep breath and said, "Get ready to face the final challenge."
When they pushed open the door, a huge secret room appeared before their eyes. In the center of the secret room, there was a crystal ball emitting a powerful dark power. That was the Heart of Shadow.
And around the crystal ball, there are several powerful dark guardians...
