At this moment, Xing Lan's voice rang in Lin Yu's mind: "Lin Yu, a new system task has been released. Task content: In the next seven days, search for a herb called 'Spirit Shadow Grass'. This herb grows deep in the dark forest and has the effect of enhancing mental strength. In the process of searching for the herb, you need to defeat the monsters you encounter and protect yourself and your companions. Task reward: 1200 experience points and a mysterious skill fragment. Task time limit: seven days."
Lin Yu's heart moved. He knew that improving their mental strength was very important to them, and the mysterious skill fragments might also allow them to gain more powerful skills. "Everyone, listen, the system has issued a new task. We are going to the Dark Forest to find a herb called 'Spirit Shadow Grass'. This will be very helpful in improving our strength. Everyone, get ready, we will set off immediately." Lin Yu said.
Everyone nodded and began to pack their bags, preparing to head to the Dark Forest.
Meanwhile, deep in the Dark Forest, a mysterious tribe of Warcraft was holding a meeting. Their leader was a massive black panther named Shadow Panther King. Its massive body exuded a powerful aura, and its eyes gleamed with a cold light.
Beside the Shadow Leopard King stood several powerful monsters, including a huge bear named Giant Bear, and an extremely fast wolf named Wind Wolf.
"Recently, people from the Dark Cult came to us. They wanted to cooperate with us to deal with a group of humans." The low voice of the Shadow Leopard King echoed in the cave.
Giant Bear scratched his head and said, "What do those humans have to do with us? Why are they cooperating with the Dark Cult?"
Wind Wolf's eyes flickered as he spoke, "The Dark Cult said those humans have a Spiritual Stone, which can be very helpful to our cultivation. If we cooperate with them and successfully seize the Spiritual Stone, we can also obtain a portion."
The Shadow Leopard King frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "The Spiritual Stone is indeed of great help to our cultivation. But the people of the Dark Cult cannot be trusted. They may have some conspiracy. We cannot easily agree to their request for cooperation."
At this moment, a small monster ran in in a panic: "My king, it's bad, a group of humans have entered our territory, and they seem to be looking for something."
The Shadow Panther King's eyes glared, and he said, "It seems these humans are the group the Dark Cult was talking about. Let's go and meet them."
After saying that, the Shadow Leopard King led the Giant Bear, the Wind Wolf and other magical beasts and walked towards Lin Yu and others.
After Lin Yu and the others entered the Dark Forest, they moved forward cautiously. They knew that the Dark Forest was full of dangers and they might encounter powerful monsters at any time.
"Everyone, be careful. The monsters here are very powerful and we can't be careless." Lin Yu reminded in a low voice.
Su Yao followed Lin Yu closely, her heart full of vigilance, her eyes constantly scanning the surroundings. Xiao Yi seemed a little excited, he gripped his weapon tightly, looking forward to encountering a powerful monster and having a good fight. Lu Ming was observing the surrounding environment, trying to find the trace of the "Spirit Shadow Grass".
Suddenly, a low roar was heard, and Lin Yu and others were startled. They knew that a monster had appeared.
A huge black bear appeared in front of them. It had a huge body, strong limbs, and a fierce light flashing in its eyes. This black bear was the Giant Bear, a subordinate of the Shadow Leopard King, who was ordered to intercept Lin Yu and others.
"Be careful, this bear is very powerful." Lin Yu warned loudly.
Everyone quickly took up combat stances, ready to face the mighty bear's attack. A new battle unfolded within the dark forest. Could Lin Yu and his companions defeat the mighty bear and find the "Spirit Shadow Grass"? And how would the Shadow Leopard King react to them? Everything was filled with unknowns, waiting for them to explore and resolve.
The giant bear roared, waving its huge paw and slapping towards Lin Yu. Lin Yu quickly used the "Five Colors Phantom Spirit Technique", and the five-colored light merged with the power of the earth element to form a solid earth wall, blocking the giant bear's attack. The giant bear's paw slapped the earth wall, making a loud noise, and some cracks appeared in the earth wall.
Su Yao took the opportunity to put up a defensive shield around Lin Yu and others to provide protection for everyone. Xiao Yi went around behind the giant bear, wielding his weapon and attacking its back. The giant bear felt the attack from behind, turned around angrily, and pounced on Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi nimbly dodged the giant bear's attacks while constantly launching counterattacks.
Lu Ming observed the giant bear's attack patterns, trying to find its weakness. He discovered that, despite its immense strength, the giant bear was relatively slow. He quickly set up a slowing formation, which shone brightly and enveloped the giant bear. The giant bear's movements became sluggish, and it roared angrily, trying to break free from the formation's constraints.
Lin Yu was delighted to see that the giant bear was affected by the slow formation. He quickly launched a more powerful attack. The colorful light merged with the power of the thunder element to form a lightning bolt, which shot towards the giant bear. The giant bear was struck by lightning, and its body trembled and screamed in pain.
After a fierce battle, Lin Yu and others finally succeeded in defeating the giant bear. The giant bear fell to the ground and lost its ability to fight.
"We succeeded!" Xiao Yi shouted excitedly.
Lin Yu nodded and said, "Is everyone okay? This bear is indeed very powerful. We can't let our guard down and continue looking for the 'Spirit Shadow Grass'."
At this moment, a burst of sneer was heard: "Humph, I didn't expect you guys to have some skills and actually defeat the giant bear. However, none of you will leave here alive today."
Everyone looked up and saw the Shadow Leopard King appear before them with the Wind Wolf and other magical beasts. The Shadow Leopard King exuded a powerful aura, which made people feel oppressive.
A more severe challenge is waiting for Lin Yu and others...
