Chapter 310: Escape from the Ruins and the Dark Trick

The ancient tower collapsed in front of Qin Feng and his team, with dust and rubble flying everywhere. Although they managed to escape from the collapsed building, everyone knew that this was just the beginning.

"Damn that man in black! He took away the Dragon Soul." Lin Xiao brushed the dust off his body and said angrily.

"We can't let him get away like this." Ye Li said firmly, "He has the Dragon Soul in his hand, which is a huge threat to us."

"What's the situation over there in the ruins?" Zhang Meng said as he looked towards the ruins.

"It looks like this guy should have escaped as well." Chu Tian frowned and said, "If he uses the power of the Dragon Soul, we might get into even bigger trouble."

Qin Feng nodded: "We must first confirm his whereabouts. We can't let him use the Dragon Soul to do more bad things."

At this time, the old man got up from the ground, panting, still holding his tool bag in his hand: "Hey, everyone is still alive? I don't want to spend another dangerous night here."

"Alive, old man." Lin Xiao rolled his eyes, "But we have to find out where that guy went immediately."

The team quickly searched the ruins, trying to find the trace of the man in black robes. The dust gradually settled, and the surroundings returned to silence, with only the occasional sound of falling stones breaking the silence.

"We should act separately." Qin Feng suggested, "This way we can find clues faster."

Everyone nodded in agreement and divided into several groups to search around the ruins. Not long after, the eagle-eyed scout came back excitedly, pointing to a path and shouting, "This way! I saw a figure running over there!"

Qin Feng immediately gathered everyone together: "Follow him, don't let him run away!"

They followed the path. The path was winding and covered by bushes and weeds, making it difficult to make out any footprints or traces. Despite this, with the sharp eyes of an eagle-eyed scout, Qin Feng and his team followed the direction of the black-robed man closely.

"That guy won't get far." Chu Tian said as he ran, "He still has to learn how to use the Dragon Soul."

"That's right, but if we don't hurry up, he might master its power," Qin Feng replied.

"Look over there!" Ye Li suddenly shouted, pointing to an open area in the distance.

They looked over and saw the man in black robe standing there, holding the Dragon Soul tightly in his hand, as if trying to release its power.

"Catch him!" Zhang Meng shouted and rushed forward.

Just as everyone was about to rush to the black-robed man, the Dragon Soul suddenly emitted a dazzling blue light, accompanied by a low buzzing sound, as if responding to the black-robed man's call.

"Everyone be careful!" Qin Feng shouted and immediately raised the Dragon Shadow Sword to prepare for defense.

However, the man in black robe did not attack them directly, but showed a smug smile: "You are too naive! Do you think I will wait here to be caught?"

He waved his hand vigorously, and the Dragon Soul sent out a powerful shock wave, forcing everyone to retreat.

"His power has become stronger!" Chu Tian exclaimed.

"This is not his problem, but the Dragon Soul." Ye Li said calmly, "It is passing the power to him!"

The man in black robe seemed to be enjoying the power at this moment. He raised the Dragon Soul with a triumphant smile on his face: "I want to thank you for helping me find it, otherwise I don't know how much time it would take."

Qin Feng gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, his eyes firm: "We won't let you succeed."

“Hahaha, is that so?” The black-robed man sneered, “You should just worry about yourselves!”

At this critical moment, a huge flame fell from the sky and hit the black-robed man from behind. He staggered due to the sudden impact of the flame and almost dropped the Dragon Soul in his hand.

"Who?" The man in black robe was shocked and angry, and quickly turned around to look.

Qin Feng and his team also looked in the direction of the flames, and saw a woman in red armor slowly falling from the sky. Her armor was shining brightly in the sun, and she was holding a flaming spear in her hand.

"Who is that?" Lin Xiao asked in surprise.

"It's the Flame Warrior!" the old man exclaimed, "She is the legendary freedom fighter who always appears at the critical moment."

"Why, is she here to help us?" Zhang Meng asked puzzledly.

The female flaming warrior gave them a cold look and said, "I'm not here to help you. I'm just here to stop this guy's plot."

Qin Feng felt a glimmer of hope: "No matter what, our goal is the same. Can you hold him back?"

"You can try." The Flame Warrior said disdainfully, "But I can't guarantee that I can protect you."

"As long as we can defeat him." Ye Li smiled and said, "Thank you for your help."

The female flame warrior nodded, then immediately turned to face the man in black robe. She swung her spear and flames erupted again, forcing him back several steps.

"Take advantage of now!" Qin Feng shouted, "Everyone, come together!"

The team acted quickly, coordinating with the attack of the female flame warrior, and launched a fierce offensive against the man in black robe. Although the man in black robe had mastered some of the power of the Dragon Soul, he was obviously unable to withstand the joint attack of everyone.

"You guys, don't think you can defeat me so easily!" the man in black robe roared angrily.

He suddenly raised the Dragon Soul above his head and released a powerful beam of light, which created a deep crack in the ground and almost split it in half.

"Everyone be careful!" Chu Tian shouted, and quickly used the power of the Storm Wolf to avoid the beam attack.

"This bastard!" Lin Xiao said angrily, "We must get the Dragon Soul as soon as possible!"

Qin Feng and the Flame Warrior continued to cooperate, trying to get closer to the man in black robe. The Flame Warrior's fire attack kept forcing the man in black robe to retreat, while Qin Feng found the right opportunity and swung his sword directly at the Dragon Soul.

"I'll cover you!" The old man suddenly pulled out a flash bomb from his back and threw it in the direction of the man in black robe. The flash bomb instantly burst out with a strong light, and the man in black robe was so blinded that he couldn't see clearly in front of him.

"Good opportunity!" Qin Feng jumped up, and the Dragon Shadow Sword pointed directly at the wrist of the man in black robe.

The man in black robe only had time to raise his hand to block, and the sharp edge of the Dragon Shadow Sword slashed his wrist fiercely. The pain made him involuntarily let go of the Dragon Soul in his hand.

"Catch it!" Ye Li shouted.

Lin Xiao acted quickly, rushed forward, and firmly grasped the falling Dragon Soul. At the moment she grasped the Dragon Soul, a powerful force suddenly came, almost making her unstable.

"Such a heavy force!" Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and held on, barely able to keep his body steady.

"Retreat quickly!" Qin Feng shouted, waving his sword to block the black-robed man's counterattack.

Lin Xiao quickly retreated back to the team and handed the Dragon Soul to Qin Feng: "I got it!"

"Well done!" Qin Feng nodded in praise, "Everyone continue to form a formation and don't let him get close!"

The black-robed man lost the Dragon Soul and became even crazier and more desperate. With a gleam of anger in his eyes, he shouted, "You guys will not succeed! The power of the Dragon Soul is mine!"

He rushed towards Qin Feng, trying to take back the Dragon Soul, but the Fiery Female Warrior quickly blocked him, swung her spear, and the flames erupted again, forcing the man in black robe to retreat again and again.

"Your opponent is me." The Flame Warrior said coldly.

"Damn it!" The man in black robe roared, and suddenly a black dagger appeared in his hand, stabbing straight at the female flame warrior.

The female flaming warrior was quick-witted and used her spear to block the attack of the black dagger. The two of them quickly engaged in a fight, and it was difficult to tell who was better.

At this moment, the sky suddenly became overcast, and a flash of lightning streaked across the sky and struck the earth. Everyone was startled by this sudden change and stopped what they were doing.

"What happened?" Chu Tian looked at the sky in surprise.

"This is the power of the Dragon Soul!" Ye Li shouted, "It's out of control!"

Qin Feng held the Dragon Soul in his hand and felt its power fluctuating violently, as if a powerful energy was surging in his body.

"Oh no! We have to find a way to control it!" Qin Feng shouted.

The old man rushed forward, holding a crystal in his hand, and pointed it at the Dragon Soul: "Try this! This is the device I use to absorb energy!"

Qin Feng aimed the Dragon Soul at the crystal. The old man pressed the button and the crystal instantly emitted a dazzling light. The power of the Dragon Soul was gradually absorbed.

"Success!" the old man shouted excitedly.

"Well done!" Zhang Meng laughed, "Now let's see how arrogant you are!"

The man in black robe saw this scene and knew that he was powerless to save the situation. He shouted angrily: "Just wait! This matter is not over yet!"

After saying this, he suddenly turned around and disappeared into the woods.

"We have to chase him quickly!" Ye Li said.

"No, he has lost the Dragon Soul. Now is not a good time to chase him." Qin Feng said calmly, "We have to deal with the Dragon Soul first, and then track down his whereabouts."

"Then let's go back to the camp first." Chu Tian suggested, "We need some time to recover."

Everyone nodded and agreed to the decision. They took the Dragon Soul and returned to the adventurer camp, knowing that even though they had temporarily won, greater challenges were still waiting for them.
