Chapter 120 Mysterious Building, Crisis 4
Black mist billowed out, carrying with it a pungent, putrid stench that was nauseating. Those flickering red eyes, like demons from the abyss, stared intently at Zhang Peng and his companions, filled with boundless malice.
"Be careful, this fog is strange!" Zhang Peng quickly mobilized his spiritual power, forming a five-colored shield in front of him to protect everyone. The black fog touched the shield, making a "sizzling" sound, attempting to corrode the defense.
Li Ming gripped the sword tightly, the blade trembling slightly as spiritual energy flowed into it: "What exactly is inside?"
Lin Wan'er and Su Yao stood at the back of the group, their expressions tense, and they moved closer together. Lin Wan'er's hands trembled slightly as she chanted a spell in a low voice, ready to unleash a wood-based spell at any moment; Su Yao, on the other hand, looked solemn as ice-based spiritual energy gathered at her fingertips, ready to launch an attack at any moment should danger arise.
As black mist continued to billow out, a gigantic monster slowly emerged from the building. Its body was as massive as a mountain, covered in black scales, each scale shimmering with an eerie light. Its head was held high, its blood-red vertical pupils gleaming with a bloodthirsty light. Black mist continuously spewed from its mouth, and its limbs were thick and powerful; with each step, the ground trembled.
"What...what kind of monster is this?" Su Yao exclaimed in terror.
Zhang Peng's expression was grave as he stared intently at the monster, trying to find its weakness: "Whatever it is, we cannot back down."
The monster roared, its voice deafening, then swung its enormous claws at Zhang Peng and the others. Zhang Peng quickly led the group to the side to dodge, the claws slamming heavily into the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Everyone, spread out! Don't stay together!" Zhang Peng shouted. The group quickly dispersed, looking for opportunities to attack the monster from different directions.
Li Ming launched the first attack, his figure as swift as lightning as he charged towards the monster. His longsword gleamed coldly as he thrust it towards the monster's leg. Sensing the attack, the monster quickly retracted its claws, while its tail lashed out like a giant black whip towards Li Ming. Li Ming hastily used his movement technique to dodge, the tail grazing his clothes and creating a gust of wind.
Seeing this, Lin Wan'er moved her hands rapidly, and countless vines burst forth from the ground, wrapping around the monster. The monster was ensnared by the vines, its movements becoming sluggish. Taking advantage of this, Su Yao unleashed ice magic, shooting ice arrows at the monster, striking its scales and scattering ice flowers.
Zhang Peng focused his mind, channeling the power of the Five Elements, the Thunder Pearl, and the ancient artifact. He felt the power within his body surging, constantly clashing with the monster's strength. Suddenly, he noticed a faint light flickering on the monster's chest, seemingly its weak point.
"I've found its weakness!" Zhang Peng shouted. He exerted all his strength, gathering his power in his hand to form a powerful five-colored lightning bolt, which shot towards the monster's chest.
The monster seemed to sense the danger; it struggled desperately, trying to break free of the vines. Just as the multicolored lightning was about to strike it, the monster suddenly opened its mouth and spewed out a stream of black flames, deflecting the multicolored lightning.
"How could this be?" Zhang Peng was shocked. He hadn't expected the monster to have such methods.
Black flames collided with multicolored lightning, erupting in a dazzling display of light. The powerful impact forced everyone back, and even Zhang Peng's spiritual energy shield began to crack under the force of the flames.
"Hold on, everyone! We can't let it defeat us!" Zhang Peng gritted his teeth and continued to mobilize his power to maintain the stability of the shield.
Just as the situation reached a stalemate, Zhang Peng suddenly sensed a strange resonance between the Five Elements Spirit Pearl and the hourglass of time. A thought struck him: could this be the key to breaking through the predicament?
Zhang Peng concentrated his mind, guiding the power of the Five Elements Spirit Pearls to merge with the other powers within his body. In an instant, he felt a subtle connection between himself and the surrounding time, as if he could control the flow of time.
"I understand!" Zhang Peng shouted, unleashing a new power that slowed the flow of time around the monster. The monster's movements became sluggish, and its once ferocious attacks became feeble.
"Now! Attack with all your might!" Zhang Peng seized the opportunity and launched another attack. Li Ming, Lin Wan'er, and Su Yao also unleashed their full power, making a final charge towards the monster.
