Chapter 321 Dark Mist
Li Zhao walked slowly forward in the dark fog as thick as ink, every step full of caution and vigilance.
The purifying crystal in his hand emitted a faint light, which seemed so small in the endless darkness, but it gave him some comfort.
While paying attention to the movements around him, he shouted the old man's name again. His voice echoed in the darkness, but still received no response.
Li Zhao discovered that there seemed to be some vague figures hidden in the dark fog around him. These figures were sometimes blurry and sometimes clear. Whenever he tried to get close, they disappeared instantly.
His heart tightened, knowing that there must be unknown dangers hidden in the darkness.
Suddenly, a sharp whistling sound came from behind. Li Zhao turned around quickly and swung the sword of purifying light. A golden light instantly illuminated the surroundings.
He saw a huge dark bat swooping down on him. Its wingspan was more than two people wide. Its blood-red eyes emitted a greedy light, and its sharp fangs were dripping with black liquid.
The Sword of Purification and the Dark Bat collided with each other, making a dull sound.
The bat was hit by the light and let out a painful cry. After rolling several times in the air, it pounced towards Li Zhao again.
Li Zhao knew that he could not fight with it for too long. He concentrated his mind and merged the power of the purification crystal, the light gem, the crystal ball and the jade pendant again. The light of the purification sword became more dazzling.
He seized the opportunity and stabbed the bat's heart with his sword. The dark bat was unable to dodge and was pierced by the sword of purifying light. Its body instantly turned into a ball of black smoke and dissipated in the air.
After dealing with the dark bats, Li Zhao continued forward. He found that the dark fog ahead seemed to have thinned out, and he could vaguely see some broken stones and collapsed walls. It seemed that they were the collapsed parts of the Dark Tower after the energy core was shattered.
Li Zhao quickened his pace and headed towards that area. As he got closer, he noticed some strange marks on the ground, as if they had been dragged by some powerful force.
He continued to search along the traces, feeling a little uneasy.
At this moment, he heard a faint groan. Li Zhao was delighted and ran in the direction of the sound.
Behind a pile of rubble, he found the injured old man.
The old man's clothes were badly torn, and there were many wounds on his body. His clothes were stained red with blood, and his crutch was broken into two pieces and scattered aside.
"Senior, how are you?" Li Zhao asked anxiously, and quickly took out a healing pill from his arms and fed it to the old man.
The old man opened his eyes with difficulty, and when he saw Li Zhao, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes. "Kid, I'm fine, just a little injured.
That mysterious man... is too cunning." The old man said slowly, his voice weak but full of anger.
It turned out that at the moment when the dark energy exploded, the mysterious man used the chaotic energy to cast a dark magic, knocking the old man away, and then disappeared into the darkness.
Li Zhao was furious. He clenched his fists and secretly vowed to find the mysterious man and take back the two gems.
Under Li Zhao's careful care, the old man's injuries gradually stabilized.
After a short rest, the two decided to continue searching for the whereabouts of the mysterious man and the gem.
They continued along the ruins of the Dark Tower. Silence reigned, their footsteps the only sound echoing through the empty ruins.
Suddenly, Li Zhao felt a powerful dark force coming from the front. He stopped vigilantly and signaled the old man to be careful.
As they approached cautiously, they found a huge black vortex in front of them. Powerful dark energy was surging in the vortex, and the surrounding air was distorted.
In the center of the vortex, the figure of a mysterious man can be vaguely seen. He is holding the two gems in his hands and laughing wildly.
"Hahaha, you finally found it. However, you will never get these two gems."
The mysterious man said with a wild laugh, his voice full of pride and sarcasm.
Li Zhao looked at the mysterious man, his eyes burning with anger. "You evil man, today is your end."
He released all the power of the purification crystal, the light gem, the crystal ball and the jade pendant, and the golden light enveloped him again, forming a sharp contrast with the dark energy in the dark vortex.
Li Zhao rushed towards the mysterious man with the sword of purifying light in his hand.
Seeing this, the mysterious man waved the gem in his hand, and the power of the dark vortex instantly increased, and a powerful suction force came towards Li Zhao.
Li Zhao felt his body being pulled by a powerful force and was almost unable to control it.
He gritted his teeth and resisted the suction with all his might while continuing to move closer to the mysterious man.
The old man was also cheering for Li Zhao. He concentrated his remaining strength and tried to use light to weaken the suction of the dark vortex.
With the joint efforts of the two, Li Zhao finally broke through the suction and came to the mysterious man.
The mysterious man's face changed drastically. He didn't expect that Li Zhao could break through the obstacles of the dark vortex.
He swung the gem quickly, releasing a powerful beam of dark energy, shooting towards Li Zhao.
Li Zhao waved the sword of purifying light to repel the dark energy beam.
The two men fought each other in an instant, light and darkness intertwined in the ruins of the Dark Tower, and the fierce energy collision caused the surrounding ground to tremble continuously, and stones flew everywhere.
During the battle, Li Zhao discovered that the mysterious man's power seemed to be stronger than before. Each of his attacks carried powerful dark energy, making it difficult for Li Zhao to resist.
He was puzzled and observed the mysterious man's movements carefully. He found that the two gems in his hands seemed to be constantly absorbing the surrounding dark energy and then converting it into his own power.
Li Zhao's mind moved, and he decided to destroy the gem first to cut off the mysterious man's source of power.
He concentrated his mind, condensed the purifying light into a huge bow of light, then drew the bow and shot arrows. One after another, purifying light arrows shot towards the gem in the mysterious man's hand.
Upon seeing this, the mysterious man quickly waved the gem to resist, and the dark energy collided with the purifying light arrow, emitting a dazzling light.
During the fierce confrontation, Li Zhao discovered that the mysterious man revealed a flaw when resisting the purifying light arrow.
He was delighted and took the opportunity to stab the sword of purifying light into the mysterious man's chest with all his strength.
The mysterious man's eyes widened in horror. He wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
The sword of purifying light instantly pierced his chest. The mysterious man let out a painful scream and his body began to become illusory.
Just when Li Zhao thought he was about to successfully defeat the mysterious man, the mysterious man suddenly revealed a strange smile.
"You think this is the end? You are so naive."
As he spoke, the two gems in his hands suddenly emitted a strong light, and powerful dark energy burst out instantly, enveloping Li Zhao and the old man.
Li Zhao struggled hard in the dark energy. He felt his strength rapidly draining away and his body gradually losing control.
He tightly grasped the purification crystal, light gem, crystal ball and jade pendant, trying to use their power to resist the erosion of dark energy.
The dark energy was too strong, and the light of these treasures gradually became dim.
Just when he felt despair, suddenly, the fragment in his hand glowed again, and the light seemed to contain a mysterious power.
Li Zhao's heart moved. He concentrated his mind and guided the power of the fragments to join the ranks of resisting the dark energy.
In an instant, the light of the fragments became stronger, interweaving with the light of other treasures to form a powerful shield that protected Li Zhao and the old man.
Dark energy continued to attack the shield, but was unable to break through.
When the dark energy gradually dissipated, Li Zhao discovered that the mysterious man had disappeared, and the two gems were nowhere to be found.
He looked around, his heart filled with confusion and anger.
Where did the mysterious man go? And where did he hide the two gems?
And how should they face more severe challenges next?
With these questions in mind, Li Zhao helped the old man up and embarked on an unknown journey again.
