Chapter 145 Crisis

Deep in the mountains of the northern region, snow-capped peaks intersect with dense forests. Qin Feng and his companions slowly move forward along a hidden trail. Their goal is to find and destroy the secret base set up by the Dark Cult in this area. After several days of hard work, they have found some clues and are moving towards the last marked location.

"The area ahead is the last stronghold we found based on intelligence." Instructor Ling Yun whispered, his Thunder Dragon Martial Spirit flickered slightly, showing a hint of fatigue. "We must be careful, the environment here is very complicated, and the Dark Cult may use the terrain to hide."

"Understood." Qin Feng nodded, "Everyone stay alert and don't take it lightly."

The team continued along the trail and gradually entered a dense forest. The forest was dark and damp, and the air was filled with an unpleasant smell. The trees were so dense that the sun could hardly penetrate, and the whole environment seemed particularly gloomy.

"The atmosphere here is really uncomfortable." Chu Tian frowned, his Storm Wolf martial spirit glowed faintly in the darkness, and he remained alert. "We must find a base as soon as possible and leave this place."

"I feel the same way. There's an air of uneasiness in the air here." Ye Li pursed her lips slightly. The light of the Frost Fox Martial Spirit flickered around her, as if warning her of the dangers around her.

"Everyone, don't let your guard down." Qin Feng reminded, "Even if we haven't found anything abnormal, don't take it lightly."

As they continued to move forward cautiously, suddenly, a low roar came from the front. The team members immediately became nervous and quickly prepared for battle.

"Everyone be careful, there may be enemies ahead!" Qin Feng said, his Dragon Shadow Sword already drawn, ready to meet possible attacks.

As the roaring sound approached, several huge soul beasts rushed out from the woods. They were huge, with fierce light flashing in their eyes, and they had obviously been controlled by the dark sect.

"The aura of these soul beasts is very strong, everyone be careful!" Instructor Ling Yun said loudly, his Thunder Dragon Martial Soul bursting out with powerful lightning power, preparing to attack.

"Chu Tian, ​​use the storm barrier to protect everyone first." Qin Feng commanded, "Ye Li, prepare frost attacks to slow down the enemy's movement speed. Zhang Meng, you are responsible for attacking the core parts of these soul beasts."

"Understood!" Chu Tian immediately activated the storm barrier, and the surrounding storm power temporarily blocked the soul beast's attack.

"Frost Fox, let's go!" Ye Li shouted loudly, and her Frost Fox martial spirit released a cold frost, quickly freezing several approaching soul beasts.

"Rock power, explode!" Zhang Meng's giant rock bear martial spirit emitted a strong rock power, directly attacking the vital parts of several soul beasts.

"Come on everyone, although these soul beasts are powerful, we should not underestimate them." Qin Feng mobilized the power of the Dragon Shadow Sword and swung the blade to attack the enemy.

After a fierce battle, the team's coordination gradually showed its effect. Although the soul beasts controlled by the Dark Cult were powerful, they began to be unable to cope with the powerful offensive of the team.

"Keep attacking, don't give them a chance to breathe!" Qin Feng commanded loudly, and the Dragon Shadow Sword drew rays of light in the air, repelling the enemies one by one.

Finally, with the joint efforts of the team, several soul beasts were completely defeated and turned into piles of dark fragments. The team members stood on the battlefield panting. Although they had tried their best, they still felt a little tired when looking at the broken scenes around them.

"We have finally dealt with these soul beasts, but this is just the beginning." Instructor Ling Yun came over and checked the situation on the battlefield. "These soul beasts are obviously used by the Dark Cult to cover their base. We need to investigate further."

"Yes, we haven't found the real base location yet." Qin Feng nodded, "Next, we need to continue to explore in depth to find the real base of the Dark Sect."

The team continued to move forward in the woods, and after some searching, they finally found a cave that was hidden very secretly. The entrance of the cave was covered so tightly by trees and rocks that it was almost impossible to detect.

"This should be the secret base of the Dark Cult." Qin Feng stood in front of the cave and said seriously, "We must enter carefully to ensure that we will not be discovered by the enemy."

"Is everyone ready?" Instructor Ling Yun asked, "Before entering the cave, we need to confirm all possible dangers."

"We have made all the necessary preparations." Chu Tian said, his Storm Wolf martial spirit hovering near the cave entrance, trying to find out what was going on inside.

The team entered the cave carefully, and heard low roars and strange noises from the depths of the cave. As the team members went deeper, they found that the cave was full of complicated mazes and traps.

"The layout here is really complicated." Ye Li frowned, and her Frost Fox Martial Spirit emitted a cold light, helping the team find hidden traps. "We must be careful with every step to avoid triggering the traps."

"We can use the storm power of the Storm Wolf to explore the location of the trap." Chu Tian said, and his Storm Wolf martial spirit sent out a strong storm, blowing away the surrounding fog and obstacles, "This will help us move forward more safely."

After careful exploration, the team finally reached the depths of the cave, where they found a huge dark altar covered with dark runes and strange formations, which was obviously a place for evil rituals.

"This is where the Dark Cult performs dark rituals." Instructor Ling Yun said, his Thunder Dragon Martial Spirit emitted a strong lightning that illuminated the entire altar. "We must destroy this altar as soon as possible to prevent them from continuing the dark rituals."

"We need to split up and find the core part of the altar and destroy it." Qin Feng commanded, "Everyone be careful, the Dark Cult may have more defensive forces."

The team members acted quickly and began to destroy the altar. Chu Tian used the power of storm to destroy the formation around the altar, Ye Li used the power of frost to freeze the dark runes on the altar, and Zhang Meng used the power of rock to attack the core part of the altar.

With the joint efforts of the team, the Dark Altar was finally completely destroyed, and the power of darkness gradually dissipated. The atmosphere inside the cave gradually became calm, and the team members breathed a sigh of relief.

"We have finally completed the mission." Qin Feng said, and his Dragon Shadow Sword also returned to calm. "Although this operation was difficult, we have successfully destroyed the important stronghold of the Dark Sect."

"Yes, our efforts have not been in vain." Teacher Ling Yun said with a smile, "Next, we will continue to move on to the next target and ensure that the remaining forces of the Dark Sect are completely eradicated."

The team members encouraged each other and continued to move forward. They knew that the road ahead was still full of challenges, but their confidence and determination were even stronger. They would continue to work hand in hand and bravely face every challenge for the sake of world peace and security.
