Chapter 181
The two venerables, Danhua and Miaoyin, looked at each other and launched their strongest attack at the same time.
There was a brilliant light, and the man in black robe let out a scream, and the black flag shattered.
Just when everyone thought everything was over, the black-robed man's body suddenly exploded, and an evil force rushed into the sky, opening a crack leading to an unknown space.
The evil force formed a suction force, and everyone was sucked into the crack before they could react.
After a dizzying moment, Gu Shihan found himself in a strange place, surrounded by thick fog and faint eerie roars.
"Everyone be careful, there's something weird going on here." Venerable Danhua warned vigilantly.
Mo Yu gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, while Shi Qinghan moved closer to Gu Shihan to protect her.
Venerable Miaoyin tried to play the flute, but found that the spiritual energy here was disordered and it was difficult to cast spells.
Suddenly, a group of ghostly creatures pounced towards them.
Everyone could only resist with force, but Mo Yu's swordsmanship was so sharp that each of his swords could repel several ghosts.
But these ghosts seemed endless, and gradually everyone began to lose strength.
At this time, Gu Shihan discovered a building emitting faint light in the distance, which looked like an ancient palace.
"Maybe there's a way out over there," she called out.
Everyone ran towards the palace, but as soon as they stepped through the palace gate, the ghosts behind them stopped and dared not go in.
The palace was filled with a mysterious atmosphere. In the center was a huge crystal ball, which seemed to contain something sealed inside.
Just as they got closer to take a look, the crystal ball suddenly flashed with a strong light.
"Another crystal ball?!" Gu Shihan was a little helpless. She couldn't remember how many times she had encountered the crystal ball.
But one thing is certain: every encounter will never be peaceful.
The bright light blinded everyone. When the light faded, they saw pictures emerging in the crystal ball.
The picture shows that this strange land was originally an ancient battlefield, and this palace is the key to sealing the source of evil.
Is this the source of evil again? Gu Shihan was puzzled. They had clearly encountered it before, so why was there such a thing here?
"My dear, since you have come to me, there is nothing to hide. The root of all evil is not the root of all evil. It and good thoughts are mutually restraining and interdependent, just like black and white. Without either, they are incomplete.
Tens of thousands of years ago, there appeared a powerful man with extraordinary wisdom and strength. He was the number one person in the world, the kind that had no rivals.
Perhaps he was too bored, so he tried to split the crystal ball that contained the source of all evil and the abyss of good into two, so that good and evil would have their own starting points, but he didn't expect something to go wrong.
The crystal ball did split apart, but what it contained did not split apart. There was just a slight difference in the proportions between them, which he did not notice at the time.
Later, no one knew why. There was a legend that the mighty man disintegrated himself and disappeared between heaven and earth. Without the suppression of the mighty man, the crystal ball was also slowly changing. The two forces in the crystal ball fought many times, and were sealed and weakened many times.
The fact that you can encounter the crystal ball again means that its existence is somehow related to you, and your sudden intrusion has disrupted the balance here."
"Senior, are we in an ancient battlefield?"
"Ancient battlefield? Yes! And no! All of this is without result, there is no right or wrong! Right and wrong are only determined by the ruler in each person's heart.
When kindness meets evil thoughts, the right person makes the right response, and the wrong person makes the wrong response. There is never absolute between right and wrong.
Now, this crystal ball has fallen into the hands of others, being used and controlled by them. All we have to do is suppress it and prevent it from becoming a tool for their own selfish desires."
Everyone looked at each other, even Venerable Danhua and Venerable Miaoyin did not understand what was going on. It seemed that they could only act based on their inner convictions.
"It seems we have to do something." said Venerable Danhua.
At this moment, the crystal ball suddenly shook violently, and then cracks appeared on the surface.
With a loud bang, a crack appeared in the crystal ball, and a wisp of black gas floated out of it. The black gas quickly transformed into a human figure, emitting a chilling laugh. "Foolish guys, you will become my rebirth sacrifice."
"Reborn sacrifice?" These words sounded like a bolt of thunder to everyone.
"Qingluo, be careful to protect yourself! Start fighting!" Venerable Danhua warned.
Mo Yu rushed forward first, with golden spiritual power attached to his sword, and stabbed straight at the black shadow.
The black shadow dodged easily and with a backhand swing, Mo Yu was knocked away.
Shi Qinghan caught Mo Yu, while Venerable Miaoyin and Venerable Danhua attacked the black shadow from both sides, while Gu Shihan made sneak attacks from the side from time to time, looking for the black shadow's weaknesses.
The black shadow seemed to have no weaknesses. It was not afraid of the red lotus fire. Every time it was broken up, it could regroup in less than a breath. Every time it regrouped, its strength would become even stronger.
What puzzles everyone the most is that this black shadow can also copy the attacking moves of Gu Shihan and others, which means that the moves used to attack the black shadow will be used by the black shadow against Gu Shihan and others.
The battle became stalemate. After a hard fight, Gu Shihan discovered that the black shadow seemed to be afraid of the power of the runes on the top of the palace and was avoiding contact with the runes every time.
Her eyes lit up and she said, "Master, Uncle Master, it's afraid of the runes on the top of the palace. Let's force it over there."
"Well, your observation is very detailed, very good!" There was admiration in Venerable Danhua's eyes.
He had already noticed something fishy, but he just wanted to delay a little longer to learn more about the black shadow's real weakness.
Everyone worked together to lead the dark shadow under the rune, and it turned out that the rune was used to seal the dark shadow.
A while ago, a black shadow came out of the seal. It was really because the time of the seal was coming to an end. The power of the seal was weak, and it was time to strengthen the seal.
Everyone worked together to trap the shadow under the rune.
Venerable Danhua made seals with his hands and muttered something. Rays of light shot out from his hands and were injected into the runes.
Venerable Miaoyin was also not idle. He took out his jade flute and started playing it. The requiem calmed the restless black shadow. The sound of the flute turned into materialized power, assisting Venerable Danhua in strengthening the seal.
Shi Qinghan, Mo Yu and Gu Shihan stayed behind the fire barrier to prevent the black shadow from escaping.
The black shadow struggled frantically, constantly changing its shape in an attempt to break through the suppression of the rune.
As the rune light grew brighter, the black shadow was gradually compressed and shrunken.
Just when everyone thought the mission was accomplished, the black shadow suddenly let out a sharp whistle, and a black light rushed towards Gu Shihan.
Gu Shihan was unable to dodge and was about to be hit.
At the critical moment, Shi Qinghan flew in front of her and stood in front of her. The black light hit Shi Qinghan and he fell down with a groan.
"Senior Brother!" Gu Shihan exclaimed.
Anger filled everyone's hearts. Venerable Danhua increased his spiritual power output and injected runes. Finally, the black shadow was completely sealed and quickly turned into black mist and was absorbed by the crystal ball.
The crystal ball seemed to repair itself quickly after the black fog entered. Black and white each occupied one side, and everything became quiet?
Just as Venerable Danhua and Venerable Miaoyin were about to look around, a huge repulsive force came and several people were thrown out.
