Chapter 566 Crisis and Battle at Sunset Mountains

Chu Tian and others led the outstanding students of the academy to rush towards the Sunset Mountains. Along the way, everyone's expressions were very serious, but also with firm determination.

"These dark forces are like indestructible cockroaches. How come they show up again?" Zhang Meng muttered, and he asked the Giant Rock Bear to speed up.

Xiaohua hugged Xiaobai, her eyes showing worry: "I hope the situation this time is not as serious as last time."

Ye Li comforted him, "No matter what, we are already prepared. We will not let them succeed this time."

When they approached the Sunset Mountains, they saw that the mountains were surrounded by a layer of black fog. The fog exuded a pungent smell and was accompanied by powerful dark soul power fluctuations.

"This dark soul power fluctuation is stronger than the last time in the valley, everyone be careful." Chu Tian reminded, he flew into the air to check the situation of the mountains.

Qin Feng held the Dragon Shadow Sword and looked around vigilantly: "It seems that the enemy this time is not simple. We can't enter rashly."

The leader of the Xingmang tribe nodded and said, "Let's scout around the mountains first to see if we can find the source of the dark soul power fluctuations."

So, everyone divided into several groups and began to conduct reconnaissance around the Sunset Mountains.

Chu Tian and several students were in a group, and they flew along the side of the mountain. During the flight, Chu Tian found that there was a place in the mountain where the dark soul power fluctuations were abnormally strong, and seemed to be flickering regularly.

"This place looks suspicious, let's go down and take a look." Chu Tian said.

They landed in a valley filled with thick dark fog, and it was almost pitch dark. Suddenly, a huge black claw stretched out from the darkness and grabbed Chu Tian.

Chu Tian reacted quickly, he dodged the attack by leaning sideways, and then fired a soul blade into the darkness. As the soul blade shone, they saw a huge dark soul beast, its body was like a hill, and its eyes were flashing blood-red light.

"What kind of soul beast is this? It looks so powerful!" a student said in surprise.

"No matter what it is, let's get rid of it first." Chu Tian said.

He flew into the air again to attract the dark soul beast's attention. The students below looked for opportunities to attack the soul beast's weaknesses.

The dark soul beast opened its bloody mouth and spewed a stream of black flames at Chu Tian. Chu Tian flexibly dodged the flame attack in the air, and at the same time he continuously fired soul blades, trying to attack the soul beast's eyes.

Just then, people from other groups heard the noise and rushed over.

Zhang Meng saw the huge dark soul beast and said excitedly: "Wow, such a big creature, let me meet it."

He let the giant rock bear rush towards the dark soul beast, and the giant rock bear's huge bear paw slapped the dark soul beast's legs. The dark soul beast felt the attack on its legs, and it angrily swung its claws at the giant rock bear.

Ye Li and the Frost Fox also joined the battle. Ye Li let the Frost Fox release cold air, which spread towards the dark soul beast. The dark soul beast was surrounded by the cold air and its movements became slow.

Qin Feng saw the right moment, holding the Dragon Shadow Sword, and rushed towards the Dark Soul Beast. He jumped into the air and stabbed the Dark Soul Beast's eyes with his sword. The Dark Soul Beast felt the pain and let out a deafening roar.

The soul masters of the Xingmang Clan released their starlight soul power one after another, and their soul power turned into starlight chains and shot towards the dark soul beast. The starlight chains wrapped around the dark soul beast, restricting its movements.

With everyone's concerted efforts, the dark soul beast was finally defeated. Its body turned into a black mist and disappeared into the air.

"Huh, this guy is really hard to deal with." Zhang Meng wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Just when they breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly, the dark fog around them became thicker, forming a huge vortex of dark soul power.

"Oh no, this is a trap!" Chu Tian shouted.

The dark soul power vortex generated a powerful suction force, and everyone was pulled by the suction and moved towards the center of the vortex.

"Don't panic, everyone. Concentrate your energy to resist the suction!" Qin Feng shouted.

Everyone gathered their soul power together to form a soul power shield, trying to resist the suction of the dark soul power vortex. However, the suction of the vortex was too strong, and cracks began to appear in their shields.

"This is not a solution. We have to find a way to break this vortex." Ye Li said anxiously.

Chu Tian was thinking about countermeasures in the air, and suddenly he thought of an idea.

"I have an idea. Let's launch soul power attacks in one direction of the vortex together. Maybe we can break its balance and destroy the vortex." Chu Tian said.

Everyone thought this method was feasible, so they followed Chu Tian's instructions and concentrated their strength to launch a powerful soul attack towards one side of the vortex.

Under the joint attack of everyone, the balance of the dark soul power vortex was broken and the vortex began to gradually dissipate.

As the dark soul vortex dissipated, they found themselves in front of the entrance of a huge underground cave. The cave was emitting strong dark soul fluctuations and bursts of low roars.

"It seems that the dark forces' lair is in this cave." said the leader of the Star Tribe.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go in and catch them all in one swoop!" Zhang Meng said excitedly.

"Don't be hasty. This cave must be full of traps and mechanisms. We must be careful." Qin Feng reminded.

They walked into the cave carefully. The cave was dark and damp, and some strange runes flickered on the walls. These runes emitted a dark light, illuminating a small part of the cave.

Suddenly, many spikes appeared on the ground in front of them. These spikes quickly popped out from the ground and stabbed towards them.

"Be careful!" Ye Li shouted.

Everyone dodged the attack of the spikes, and some students were scratched by the spikes because they were unable to dodge in time.

"Everyone, please pay attention to your feet. These spikes may be popping out according to a certain pattern." Chu Tian said.

He carefully observed the pattern of the spikes' ejection in the air and found that the spikes were ejected in a certain time interval and position sequence.

"I know the pattern, everyone follow me." Chu Tian said.

Under Chu Tian's leadership, everyone successfully avoided the spike trap.

Continuing forward, they encountered a group of dark soul masters, who were wearing black robes and masks on their faces, revealing only pairs of eyes emitting red light.

"You nosy guys, today is the day you die!" a dark soul master said viciously.

"Humph, you dark lackeys think you can defeat us?" Zhang Meng said disdainfully.

The battle broke out instantly. The dark soul masters summoned their own dark soul beasts and rushed towards Chu Tian and others.

Chu Tian flew into the air and fired his soul blades at the dark soul masters. His soul blades flickered in the darkness and accurately hit some dark soul masters and their soul beasts.

Zhang Meng ordered the Giant Rock Bear to charge towards the group of dark soul beasts. The Giant Rock Bear's enormous power allowed it to rampage through the group of soul beasts, and every attack could make the dark soul beasts fall down.

Ye Li and the Frost Fox released cold air, freezing a large number of dark soul beasts. Then she controlled the ice spikes and shot them at the dark soul beasts that were still struggling. The ice spikes penetrated the bodies of the dark soul beasts and completely destroyed them.

Qin Feng held the Dragon Shadow Sword and moved freely among the dark soul masters and soul beasts. His sword moves were sharp, and each sword could pierce the vital points of the dark soul masters or soul beasts.

Xiaohua and Xiaobai were also busy. Xiaohua used her soul power to command Xiaobai, and Xiaobai used her speed advantage to run behind the dark soul masters and soul beasts, releasing a beam of light from time to time to interfere with their attacks.

The soul masters of the Xingmang clan released their starlight soul power one after another, and their soul power turned into starlight shields to protect themselves and other students. At the same time, they also shot starlight chains at the dark soul masters, trapping some of them.

During the battle, Chu Tian discovered that these dark soul masters seemed to be protecting something. Behind them, there was a stone platform emitting strong dark soul power, and a black crystal ball was placed on the stone platform.

"There must be something wrong with that crystal ball. We have to find a way to get it." Chu Tian shouted.

Everyone fought hard towards the black crystal ball, trying to break through the dark soul master's defense.

However, the dark soul masters also noticed their intention, and they began to attack more frantically, desperately trying to protect the black crystal ball.

"Everyone, work harder, we must get that crystal ball!" Qin Feng shouted.

With everyone's concerted efforts, they finally broke through the dark soul master's defense and arrived in front of the stone platform.

Chu Tian reached out to take the black crystal ball. The moment his hand touched the crystal ball, a powerful dark soul power surged into his body.

"Ah!" Chu Tian screamed in pain.

When everyone saw Chu Tian's situation, they all gathered around him.

"Chu Tian, ​​are you okay?" Ye Li asked anxiously.

Chu Tian gritted his teeth and said: "The dark soul power in this crystal ball is very strong. I am trying to suppress it."

At this moment, a sinister laugh suddenly sounded in the cave.

"Do you think you can take my dark crystal ball so easily? You are too naive." A voice echoed in the cave.

A tall dark soul master in a black robe walked out from the depths of the cave. He exuded a dark soul power that was stronger than other dark soul masters, and his eyes were filled with evil and cunning.

"Who are you?" Qin Feng asked.

"I am Dark Shadow, the ruler of the Sunset Mountains. How dare you, stupid guys, trespass into my territory." Dark Shadow said arrogantly.

"Your so-called territory is built on the basis of harming the Wuhun World. We will not let you continue to do evil." Chu Tian said while enduring the pain.

"Then let's give it a try." After the Dark Shadow finished speaking, he waved his hands, and the dark soul power gathered in his hands into a huge dark sword, which stabbed towards Chu Tian and others.

Qin Feng rushed forward with the Dragon Shadow Sword in his hand. The two swords collided, making a sharp metallic collision sound.

Zhang Meng ordered the Giant Rock Bear to charge at the Dark Shadow, and the Giant Rock Bear's huge force hit the Dark Shadow. The Dark Shadow jumped lightly and avoided the Giant Rock Bear's attack, and then he fired a dark soul blade at the Giant Rock Bear. After being hit, the Giant Rock Bear let out a painful cry.

Ye Li and Frost Fox released cold air, trying to freeze Dark Shadow, but Dark Shadow's dark soul power was too strong, and the cold air had no effect on him.

The soul masters of the Xingmang Clan released their starlight soul power one after another and attacked the Dark Shadow. The Dark Shadow waved the Dark Sword and blocked the starlight soul power back.

Xiaohua and Xiaobai were looking for opportunities on the side. Xiaobai used his speed advantage to interfere with the Dark Shadow when he attacked, while Xiaohua used his soul power to provide support to his partners.

While Chu Tian was trying to suppress the dark soul power in the black crystal ball, he was also looking for the weakness of the Dark Shadow. He found that after launching a powerful attack, the Dark Shadow would pause briefly to adjust its breathing.

"Everyone, pay attention to his attack rhythm. He will pause after launching a powerful attack. We can take this opportunity to attack his head." Chu Tian shouted loudly.

Following Chu Tian's instructions, everyone began to attack the Dark Shadow strategically.

After the Dark Shadow launched a powerful attack, everyone seized the moment of his pause and attacked his head.

Dark Shadow was hit by everyone's attack, and his head was severely injured. He roared angrily: "How dare you hurt me, I will make you pay the price!"

He began to cast a powerful dark magic, and the entire cave began to shake. The power of the dark magic swept towards Chu Tian and others, and wherever it went, everything was swallowed by darkness.

"We can't be swallowed by this force. Let's concentrate our strength to resist!" Chu Tian shouted.

Everyone gathered their soul power together to form a huge soul shield to resist the attack of dark magic. However, the dark magic power of the Dark Shadow was too strong, and cracks began to appear in their shield.

Just when they were about to be unable to resist, Chu Tian suddenly thought of a way. He merged the dark soul power in the black crystal ball with his own soul power, and then launched a powerful soul power attack towards the dark shadow.

This soul attack combines the dark power of the dark crystal ball and Chu Tian's own power, and is extremely powerful. Dark Shadow did not expect Chu Tian to attack him in this way, and he was unable to dodge and was hit by the soul attack.

After Dark Shadow was hit, his body began to flicker and his dark soul power began to get out of control.

"Do you think you can defeat me like this? I will not be destroyed." The Dark Shadow said viciously.

Just as the Shadow of Darkness was about to launch the final attack, Chu Tian and others once again gathered their soul power together and launched a final attack on the Shadow of Darkness.

Under the joint attack of everyone, the Dark Shadow was finally defeated. His body gradually dissipated, and the dark soul power disappeared without a trace.

As the Dark Shadow was defeated, the fluctuations of dark soul power in the cave gradually subsided.

"We succeeded!" Zhang Meng shouted excitedly.

Everyone gathered around the black crystal ball, and Chu Tian sealed the crystal ball to prevent its dark power from endangering the Wuhun world again.

After completing all this, they took the injured students and left the Sunset Mountains. This battle made them understand more clearly that although the dark forces are cunning and powerful, as long as they unite as one, they will be able to defeat the darkness and protect the peace of the martial arts world.
