The few of them took a short break. Fu Yunzhi was about to say something when suddenly, a cold wind blew from the depths of the corridor, bringing with it a creepy growl.
"Oh no, it's a shadow beast!" Helan Qiao's face changed, and his fox ears stood up alertly. His keen sense of smell had already smelled the smell of blood in the air.
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a group of inky black shadow beasts emerged from the darkness and pounced on the crowd with their fangs and claws bared.
"Yunzhi, be careful!" Chen Yuntan reacted very quickly and protected Yunzhi behind him. At the same time, sharp claws popped out from his fingertips to meet the oncoming shadow beast.
However, the shadow beasts were numerous and their attacks were fierce. Although Chen Yuntan was powerful, he was unable to withstand them.
A shadow beast took advantage of his unpreparedness and scratched his shoulder fiercely, and blood instantly dyed his clothes red.
"Yun Tan!" Fu Yunzhi's heart suddenly tightened when he saw this, and an indescribable panic surged in his heart.
Without thinking, she immediately mobilized her super healing ability. The bright white light gathered at her fingertips and gently touched Chen Yuntan's wound.
"Hiss..." Chen Yuntan frowned in pain, but the tips of his ears turned red. He complained in a low voice: "Trouble..." Although he said trouble, he unconsciously clenched the corner of his clothes and let Fu Yunzhi heal him.
The slightly trembling fingertips revealed his true feelings at the moment.
While fending off the attacks of the shadow beasts, Helan Qiao observed the situation around him. He keenly discovered that the shadow beasts seemed to be extremely afraid of Leng Yuzhou and always deliberately avoided his location.
"Leng Yuzhou, do you have any relationship with this relic?" Helan Qiao asked tentatively, with a hint of suspicion in his tone.
Leng Yuzhou lowered his eyes and said nothing, but the snake pupils in his eyes flashed slightly. The cold light was like the tongue of a poisonous snake, which made people shudder.
Fu Yunzhi also noticed the abnormality of the shadow beast. She involuntarily moved closer to Leng Yuzhou, wanting to see it more clearly.
"Don't come any closer." Leng Yuzhou suddenly grabbed her wrist, his knuckles turned white but he didn't use any force. His voice was as hoarse as a poisonous snake, with a suffocating sense of oppression.
At this moment, Lu Qiuyun suddenly said, "The shadow beasts are afraid of pure energy. If we can improve Yunzhi's abilities, we might be able to repel them!"
Fu Yunzhi's heart stirred. She thought of the power that had erupted from her body in the secret place the last time. She was still somewhat conscious at that time. That energy burst had transformed her. She could feel that the power was powerful. It would become her trump card, but it would also bring some unnecessary trouble. However, using it would consume a large amount of mental energy and might even cause her to fall into a coma.
"Let's fight!" Fu Yunzhi gritted her teeth. She mobilized all the energy in her body and tried to activate that power.
In an instant, a dazzling blue light burst out from her body, illuminating the entire secret room. The powerful energy fluctuations made the surrounding shadow beasts tremble and retreat.
However, this energy was too strong and Fu Yunzhi's body could not bear it. She staggered and fell into a warm embrace.
"Yunzhi!" Tia Mir hurriedly supported her. Water droplets dripped from the ends of his sea-blue hair, soaking Yunzhi's collar, with a faint salty taste.
"I'm fine..." Fu Yunzhi smiled weakly. She felt as if her body was hollowed out and her vision was blurry.
"Yunzhi! How are you?" Chen Yuntan's voice trembled slightly.
Fu Yunzhi wanted to answer, but found that she was no longer able to speak. Her eyes went dark and she completely lost consciousness.
The blue light gradually dissipated, and the secret room fell into darkness again. Only the pale face of Fu Yunzhi in Tia Mills' arms stood out in the darkness.
Although Fu Yunzhi fainted and the blue light dissipated, the aftermath of that powerful force remained.
Those shadow beasts seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier and could only wander around anxiously, making low roars.
"These guys... seem scared." Lu Qiuyun used his healing ability to treat Tia Mir's wounds while observing the movements of the shadow beasts. There was a hint of doubt in his gentle voice.
"Afraid? Afraid of what? Afraid of Fu Yunzhi's blue light?" Helan Qiao narrowed his fox eyes, his tail swishing back and forth nervously. "Something's wrong... These shadow beasts seem to be afraid of something..."
At this moment, the remaining mutated ice power in Fu Yunzhi's body suddenly erupted!
Snap——
The air seemed to freeze into ice, and the coldness quickly spread around with Fu Yunzhi as the center.
Those shadow beasts that were originally roaring were instantly frozen into ice sculptures. Each one looked lifelike, but without any sound.
"roar--"
A deafening roar came from deep in the corridor, shaking the entire secret room.
An extremely huge shadow beast king slowly walked out of the darkness.
Its scarlet eyes stared at Fu Yunzhi, as if it wanted to eat her alive.
"This... is this the Shadow Beast King?" Chen Yuntan's cat pupils instantly shrank into a vertical line. He could feel that the power of this Shadow Beast King was far beyond those ordinary Shadow Beasts before.
Just as the Shadow Beast King was about to launch an attack, Fu Yunzhi's remaining ice power erupted again!
Whoosh whoosh——
Countless ice cones appeared out of thin air and shot towards the Shadow Beast King at lightning speed.
The Shadow Beast King roared and swung his huge claws, trying to smash the ice cone.
However, these ice cones are extremely hard and there are many of them.
Although the Shadow Beast King shattered part of the ice cones, he was still hit by more ice cones, and countless blood holes appeared on his body in an instant.
