With a new force sharing the firepower, Ye Xi and the others were much more relaxed, and Tai Shan could now safely pull out the Trident of the Sea God.
"Boom~~~" The earth rumbled continuously, and under the immense force of Mount Tai, cracks appeared from the trident.
At the same time, the enormous trident was actually pulled out bit by bit by Mount Tai.
"Boom~~~" A large amount of black mist spread out, and the strength of the surrounding dark creatures increased visibly. This was a carnival for the dark creatures.
Some low-level dark creatures, having only gotten a few scraps from this feast, were directly promoted from rank 1 to rank 2, and from rank 2 to rank 3.
Only those dark creatures of level 3 and above, due to the enormous energy within their bodies, have not yet advanced in the short term, yet their strength has increased remarkably.
"Isn't this too exaggerated? How could the strength of these dark creatures increase so quickly?" Ye Ying exclaimed in amazement as she looked at the dark creatures around her.
"Roar~~~" In contrast, the red dragons were in a sorry state, mostly covered in wounds, and one of them had even lost its life forever.
However, as the trident of Poseidon was pulled out little by little, the surging dark energy became increasingly fierce, and Michael's holy light flickered in the darkness, threatening to be extinguished at any moment.
"No, we must get away first. The dark energy is too immense; my holy light can no longer protect everyone!" Michael said in a deep voice.
"Let's step back a bit, Mount Tai, please be careful!" Ye Xi nodded and shouted towards Mount Tai in the distance.
At this moment, not to mention Michael, even the flames on the Black Bird's body had dimmed considerably. If they continued to stay here, they would probably be corrupted by the darkness.
Thinking of this, as they retreated, everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look towards the red dragon.
At this moment, all the members of the clan had succumbed to the corruption of dark energy and were frantically attacking their companions.
Not only that, even the red dragons in the sky seemed unable to withstand the onslaught. They were all in a daze, and several times their dragon breaths went nowhere. It was only a matter of time before they were overwhelmed.
"Is this what darkness is like?" Mina murmured, looking back. They had never truly witnessed how darkness devoured life.
“This is just the beginning. In the end, they will all become slaves to darkness!” Michael said coldly. The group retreated to a relatively safe distance before stopping and quietly watching the situation at the trident.
At this moment, under the immense force of Mount Tai, the trident had been lifted halfway up, and Mount Tai's feet could even touch the ground.
A large amount of black mist surged out, and the surrounding dark creatures had no time to pay attention to anything else, frantically rushing towards the tip of the halberd, hoping to absorb more black mist.
Chris's red dragon and its hundreds of followers had all fallen, their bodies stained with black, their eyes flashing red.
The attacks on the surrounding dark creatures had long ceased, and like them, they were frantically rushing towards the source of the black mist, even attacking their own companions.
"Fortunately, the lightning on Mount Tai can dispel the black mist, otherwise I was really afraid that he would also be corrupted by the darkness!" Ye Ying said thankfully.
The lightning on Mount Tai was like the nemesis of this black mist, easily dispersing all the black mist that invaded it. Therefore, there were no dark creatures around him, since there was no black mist for them to absorb.
"Now we'll see if he can completely pull out the Trident of Poseidon, and we'll also have to see if we can successfully return!" Ye Xi said in a deep voice.
They are now standing on the outer edge of the space. There are not many dark creatures left here, so it would be very easy for them to get out. The problem is how Taishan will fight his way out.
Looking at the dense swarm of dark creatures before them, everyone was filled with a headache.
With his feet firmly planted on the ground, Mount Tai possessed even greater strength than before, and unsurprisingly, he managed to pull out the remaining half of the trident bit by bit.
Ye Xi and the others couldn't see the specific situation inside, but they could feel that the surrounding darkness was becoming increasingly intense and growing at an alarming rate. Even they, standing on the outer perimeter, were finding it difficult to resist.
The flames on the black bird's body flickered and died out due to the suppression of the surrounding dark energy, and many people began to experience auditory hallucinations.
“Let’s go to the gap. Mina, Ye Ling, and Tu Di, you go out first. Michael will give them a divine protection!” Ye Xi said quickly.
Mina and Ye Ling are not from the primordial race, and their resistance to dark energy is not as strong as that of the primordial race. It would be too dangerous for them to stay here, so it would be better to go out and meet them.
"Alright!" Everyone retreated after getting ready and soon arrived at the entrance. The few Void Elves that had come with the Red Dragon had already escaped, and Mina and the others left safely.
"Ah!!!" At this moment, Taishan's roar came from afar, and the entire space trembled, even showing signs of collapsing.
With that final roar, the Trident of Poseidon was finally pulled out by Mount Tai.
The sound of thunderous waves crashing against the shore filled the air as massive amounts of seawater appeared out of thin air and poured into the surrounding space.
Mina, who had just left, jumped back in through the spatial rift, looking at Ye Xi and the others with a horrified expression, and shouted, "You guys come out quickly, this space is about to collapse!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. If the space collapsed, they would have no way out. They would either be destroyed along with the space or lost in the endless void. They prayed for good luck to survive.
"No, Mount Tai is still over there! We can't abandon him!" Ye Ying shouted, as thunder rumbled behind her. Even though she was surrounded by countless dark creatures, the dazzling lightning was still unstoppable.
A deafening roar of thunder resounded, and everyone felt a flash of light before their eyes, turning their heads away.
But everyone knew that it was Taishan's counterattack.
Under the thunder, large numbers of dark creatures perished, regardless of whether they were 3rd or 4th tier, creating a large vacuum area.
Ye Xi and the others turned around and finally caught a glimpse of each other's figures.
At this moment, Mount Tai held a trident, bathed in lightning. Lightning flashed and thunder roared all around, accompanied by wind and rain, as if a god had descended to earth, dispelling the surrounding darkness.
"Those who block my way shall die!" Taishan roared as he attacked, his trident sweeping out and a lightning whip cracking through the monster horde, carving a path through the monsters.
Holding a trident, Mount Tai walked step by step toward Ye Xi and the others, and all darkness receded along the way.
