Chapter 1188 Sacrifice

He raised his fist and aimed it at my back. I sensed it, shifting my body slightly, and simultaneously grabbed his arm with my backhand. With a powerful jerk, I flung him away. Sheren flipped in the air and landed safely. He looked at me, his eyes filled with resentment.

"I didn't expect you to have some skills," Sheren said coldly, quickly forming hand seals. A huge magic circle appeared before him, emanating black mist, and the ferocious figures of monsters loomed in the mist.

I took a deep breath, my newly absorbed energy swirling furiously, my aura rising. I raised my hands, and a massive golden shield appeared before me. The black mist and monsters pounded against it, but the shield remained as solid as a rock.

I seized the opportunity and thrust my hands forward, sending the shield hurtling towards Sheren with immense force. Sheren's face paled, and he tried to dodge, but it was too late. The shield knocked him back, and he fell heavily to the ground, spitting blood. I slowly approached him and said coldly, "You've lost this battle."

Sheren forced himself to his feet, a look of determination in his eyes. "It's not over yet!" He then unleashed the remaining magic within him. A powerful shockwave swept towards me, instantly crumbling my golden shield. I gritted my teeth, trying to maintain the shield, but the shockwave was too strong, and my body began to retreat uncontrollably. Just as I was about to collapse, a familiar figure suddenly appeared before me.

......

It was my friend Sakura. She formed hand seals with her hands, releasing a soft light that countered the shockwave. The light gradually stabilized the situation, and the shockwave's power gradually weakened. Toneri, having exhausted all his magic power, collapsed to the ground. Sakura turned and smiled at me: "It's okay." I looked at her, my heart filled with emotion. Although this battle was won, it also made me realize that the power of friends is the most powerful. No matter what difficulties we face in the future, we can overcome them together. At this moment, Toneri, who had been collapsed to the ground, suddenly emitted a strange light and began to slowly levitate. Toneri's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, flashing with an eerie purple light, and his aura became several times stronger than before. "What...what's going on?" Sakura exclaimed. It turned out that Toneri hid an ancient evil power, and the explosion of magic just now had activated it.

......

Toneri let out a sinister laugh. "Do you think this is the end? How naive!" He waved his hands, and countless black spikes shot towards us. Sakura and I reacted quickly. I once again gathered my golden shield, while Sakura unleashed wind blades, severing the spikes one by one. But Toneri continued to attack, and we gradually began to feel the pressure. At this critical moment, the other companions arrived, each of them unleashing their own skills to join us in the fight against Toneri. With everyone's concerted attack, Toneri's evil power was finally suppressed, and he fell heavily to the ground, completely unconscious. This difficult battle deepened our friendship and strengthened our belief that as long as we unite as one, there is no enemy that cannot be defeated.
