Chapter 493 Desperate Counterattack and the Arrival of Mysterious Reinforcements
The dark vortex, like a surging black tide, crashed against Zhang Peng and the others' defenses with a destructive force. The Star Shield shimmered, its multicolored stellar power clashing violently with the dark energy, producing a hissing sound, and fine cracks appeared on its surface. Murong Yu's Chaos Law Shield teetered on the brink of collapse under the impact of the dark vortex. He gripped the Chaos Breeze Sword tightly, his arms trembling slightly from the effort, sweat beading on his forehead, large drops sliding down his cheeks and dripping onto the ground. Liu Ruoli's sonic shield was also weakening; her fingers danced rapidly on her jade flute, playing increasingly rousing melodies in an attempt to strengthen the shield. Su Yi's dark shield was entangled with the dark energy within the vortex, but as the vortex's power increased, he too gradually felt overwhelmed.
"No, if this continues, our defenses will be breached sooner or later!" Murong Yu shouted, his voice sounding weak amidst the howling of the dark vortex.
Zhang Peng's expression was solemn; he knew full well that Murong Yu's words were true. He concentrated his mind, guiding the power of the radiant stars and the power of the chaotic laws, attempting to find the weakness of the dark vortex. Under the perception of the power of the stars, he discovered that the dark power was weakest at the center of the dark vortex.
"Listen up, everyone! The center of this dark vortex is its weak point. Let's concentrate our attack there!" Zhang Peng shouted.
Upon hearing this, Murong Yu immediately unleashed the ultimate move of the "Chaotic Breeze Sword," "Chaotic Breeze Annihilation." A sword aura containing boundless power, carrying the momentum to tear through space, shot towards the center of the dark vortex. The sword aura weaved through the dark vortex, dispelling the dark power wherever it went.
Liu Ruoli played the strongest form of "Sonic Chaos Storm," the sound waves transforming into powerful energy, forming a massive vortex that clashed with the dark vortex. Under the impact of the sound waves, the rotation speed of the dark vortex gradually slowed down.
Su Yi unleashed an upgraded version of the forbidden dark technique. The black light contained an even more concentrated dark power, surging towards the center of the dark vortex. The forbidden dark technique collided with the dark power within the vortex, producing a series of booming sounds.
Zhang Peng unleashed an enhanced version of the "Star Shattering Fist," his fist glowing with the power of stars, crashing into the center of the dark vortex like a shooting star. The power of stars and the power of darkness collided fiercely at the center of the vortex, the light so dazzling it was impossible to look directly at it.
Under the combined attack of the four, a gap appeared at the center of the dark vortex. Seeing this, Zhang Peng immediately seized the opportunity and unleashed his ultimate technique, "Star Reversal," powered by the power of the stars. Under his control, the power of the stars reversed the force of the dark vortex, reflecting the dark power back towards the guardians of the dark forces.
The guardian of the dark forces' expression changed drastically. He hadn't expected Zhang Peng and the others to find the weakness of the dark vortex and launch a counterattack. He hurriedly cast a dark defense spell, attempting to block the rebounding dark power. However, the dark power was too strong; his defense spell was instantly breached, and the dark power struck his body. He let out a scream and flew backward.
Just as Zhang Peng and the others were preparing to deliver the final blow to the guardians of the dark forces, a golden light suddenly appeared in the sky. Within the light, an old man dressed in a golden robe slowly descended. The old man emanated powerful spiritual energy, and his eyes exuded an air of majesty.
"Stop!" the old man shouted. His voice echoed through the valley like a thunderclap.
Zhang Peng and the others stopped their attack, watching the old man warily. The protector of the dark forces, upon seeing the old man, looked even more grim, his eyes filled with fear.
"You... how did you get here?" the guardian of the dark forces said, trembling.
The old man glanced at the protector of the dark forces, a hint of disgust in his eyes: "Hmph, if I hadn't come, who knows what other heinous things you remnants of the dark forces would have done!"
After speaking, the old man turned to look at Zhang Peng and the others, a kind smile on his face: "You don't need to be afraid. I am an elder of Lingxiao Pavilion, sent by the Pavilion Master to support you."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Peng and the others were overjoyed. They knew that the elder of Lingxiao Pavilion was powerful, and with his support, their chances of winning against the dark forces increased even further.
"Thank you for your help, Elder!" Zhang Peng said respectfully.
Murong Yu, Liu Ruoli, and Su Yi also bowed to the old man to express their gratitude.
The old man nodded slightly, then looked at the protector of the dark forces, his expression cold and stern: "Today is the end of your dark forces!" With that, the old man swiftly formed hand seals, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy erupted from his body, attacking the protector of the dark forces…
