Chapter 184 The Guardians Beyond Imagination
Huan Yuechu took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and concentrated on mobilizing her powerful mental energy.
In an instant, an invisible energy wave spread outwards from her in all directions.
This spiritual force, like a surging tide, rushed straight towards the white-robed youth.
Sensing the powerful impact of this mental force, the boy, who had been silent all along, finally reacted.
His body trembled slightly, and his tightly closed eyes slowly opened, revealing a subtle, unusual look in his gaze as he looked at Huan Yuechu…
The white-clad youth frowned slightly, and his previously fierce attack instantly came to a halt.
The ferocious beast in front of him also stopped moving, and the flames it spewed from its mouth gradually died down.
Seeing this, Huan Yue quickly seized the opportunity to ask again.
Are you trying your best to prevent the black-robed man's plot from happening again?
The young man in white gazed silently into the distance, as if time had stood still.
After a long while, he slowly nodded, indicating his agreement.
Huan Yuechu quickly stated her position: "We are not on the same side as those men in black robes. If you need help, we can work together."
Upon hearing this, the young man in white scanned the crowd with piercing eyes, seemingly trying to discern something from each person's face.
After careful observation and consideration, he ultimately chose to temporarily trust these people.
And so, the scene fell into silence.
After a long while, the boy seemed to have made up his mind and let out a long sigh.
Then he slowly opened his lips and, in a low but firm voice, revealed the truth.
"Actually... ever since I learned of the black-robed man's plot, I've been secretly trying my best to stop it from happening. The reason I haven't told anyone is simply because I'm worried that innocent people might be implicated."
These words were like a thunderclap in everyone's ears, leaving them all taken aback and exchanging bewildered glances.
After a brief moment of shock, the group quickly regained their composure and expressed their willingness to believe every word the young man in white said.
At this moment, Huan Yue stepped forward, walked up to the boy, and solemnly handed him back the yellowed ancient book that she was holding tightly in her hand, while saying with sincerity.
"Since we share a common goal, let us work together and fight side by side to confront the evil force lurking in the shadows!"
The boy stared at Huan Yuechu's unwavering gaze, a slight hesitation creeping into his heart.
He knew that taking on this ancient book meant taking on a huge responsibility.
But after a brief hesitation, he slowly extended his right hand and carefully took the ancient book that exuded an ancient aura from Huan Yuechu's hand.
The moment my fingertips touched the book cover, a heavy feeling welled up in my heart.
The boy took a deep breath and nodded solemnly, indicating that he was ready to face the unknown challenges.
At this moment, his friends gathered around him, each with an unusually solemn expression.
They exchanged glances, remaining silent, as if the entire world weighed on their shoulders.
Finally, Su Jinyan broke the silence, speaking in a low and serious voice.
"We must come up with a solution as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable."
Thus began a tense and heated discussion.
Time passed by, and the group sometimes argued endlessly, and sometimes fell into deep thought.
After repeatedly weighing various possibilities, they finally focused their attention on the ancient book.
After a long period of in-depth study, hard work pays off, and a crucial clue gradually emerges—it turns out that a mysterious and key array hub is hidden deep in the back mountain of the sect!
According to ancient records, if this hub can be completely destroyed, then the terrible monster summoning ritual can be successfully stopped.
Now that a solution had been found, everyone made a decision without hesitation.
Take immediate action! Without further ado, the group quickly got up, packed their belongings, and embarked on the arduous journey to the back mountain.
Throughout the journey, everyone remained on edge, not daring to relax for even a moment.
They kept a close watch on their surroundings, moving as lightly as cats, afraid of disturbing any potential enemies with the slightest sound.
However, things rarely go as smoothly as one might imagine.
As expected, those treacherous and insidious evil forces seemed to have already seen through their entire plan.
As the group struggled along the winding path leading to the back of the mountain, a series of meticulously designed and deadly traps silently awaited them, luring them into their own clutches.
Even so, faced with this sudden and multifaceted crisis, no one present showed the slightest fear or hesitation.
Instead, they gripped their weapons tightly, their eyes growing even more resolute, with only one belief in their hearts—to complete their mission and protect the peace of the world, no matter what.
As the distance to the back mountain continued to shrink, everyone's hearts felt as if they were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, tightening more and more, and their heartbeats accelerated uncontrollably.
The "thump thump thump" sound was clearly audible, as if the whole world consisted only of that rapid and powerful heartbeat.
With each small step forward, a deep-seated tension surged up like a tidal wave.
Wave after wave, one higher than the next, gradually devoured their last shred of reason and courage.
Just then, without warning, several dark figures suddenly appeared in front of them like ghosts, blocking their path.
In an instant, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, stagnating and still, and even time seemed to stop at this moment, and everything fell into a deathly silence.
After a long while, everyone finally came to their senses and stared wide-eyed.
Upon closer inspection, he couldn't help but gasp – standing before him were several guardians of unfathomable strength and power beyond imagination!
These guardians are all tall and imposing, standing like mountains, giving people an insurmountable sense of oppression.
They were surrounded by an extremely thick, almost tangible black mist, so dense that it seemed impossible for it to dissipate, completely obscuring their figures.
From this layer of black mist, a chilling and nauseating evil aura continuously emanated.
This aura spread and filled every corner, causing everyone present to feel a bone-chilling cold rising from the depths of their hearts.
