Chapter 627: Attack and Defense of the Dark Castle

Chu Tian and others approached the dark castle cautiously. With every step they took, they could feel the oppression of the dark soul power becoming stronger and stronger.

"The dark aura in this place is so thick that I can squeeze water out of it." Zhang Meng muttered as he walked, and his giant rock bear martial spirit seemed to be restless and uneasy.

Ye Li rolled her eyes at him: "Can't you be quiet? Be careful not to be discovered by the enemy."

Qin Feng tightly grasped the Dragon Shadow Sword and looked around vigilantly: "Everyone, be alert. There must be traps everywhere here."

When they approached the castle gate, they suddenly heard a low horn sound. Then, the castle gate slowly opened and a group of dark cultists poured out.

These dark cultists wore black robes and strange masks on their faces, revealing only a pair of eyes emitting red light.

"Hey, are they here to greet us?" Chu Tian said casually, but his hands had already secretly gathered the thunder soul power.

"Hmph, you nosy guys, today is the day you die!" said a dark cultist who looked like a small leader viciously.

"I'm tired of hearing this. The villains always say this. Can't you be a little creative?" Zhang Meng responded disdainfully.

Before he could finish, the dark cultists launched an attack. They waved black sickles wrapped with dark soul power and rushed towards Chu Tian and others.

Qin Feng rushed forward in one step, and the Dragon Shadow Sword turned into a stream of light, colliding with the dark cultist's sickle, making a harsh metal friction sound.

"You guys have no idea how powerful the power of darkness is!" A dark cultist shouted, and his sickle suddenly released a black soul wave, sweeping towards Qin Feng.

Qin Feng was not in a hurry. He dodged the soul wave easily with a flash, and then stabbed the dark cultist with a sword. The dark cultist wanted to dodge, but it was too late. He was stabbed in the shoulder by the Dragon Shadow Sword and let out a scream.

At the same time, Chu Tian also rushed into the enemy group. His thunder spirit power flashed around his body, and every time he swung his fist, a bolt of lightning would strike the enemy. After being struck by lightning, the dark cultists were instantly paralyzed and fell to the ground twitching.

Ye Li led the students to support them from behind. She commanded the frost fox to release its cold soul power, forming a layer of ice on the ground in front. When the dark cultists walked on the ice, they slipped and fell one after another, looking miserable.

"Haha, let's see how you can still be so arrogant!" A student couldn't help laughing when he saw the funny appearance of the dark cultists falling.

However, the dark cultists did not give up. They adjusted their tactics, and some cultists began to cast dark magic and summon some dark creatures to help.

A group of dark creatures that looked like bats but were huge flew out of the castle. When their wings flapped, they created a black whirlwind.

"What the hell is this?" Zhang Meng said with a frown.

"No matter what it is, just fight!" Qin Feng shouted.

He soared into the air, and the Dragon Shadow Sword drew a graceful arc in the air, slashing towards a dark bat. The dark bat nimbly avoided Qin Feng's attack, and then sprayed a mouthful of black venom at him.

Qin Feng quickly dodged to the side, and the venom fell to the ground, making a "sizzling" corrosive sound.

Chu Tian saw this situation and flew into the air. He gathered his thunder spirit power to the extreme and shouted: "Thunder!"

A huge lightning column fell from the sky and blasted directly towards the group of dark bats. After being hit by the lightning column, the dark bats turned into black smoke and dissipated in the air.

"Teacher Chu Tian is so awesome!" the students cheered.

Just when everyone thought the situation was beginning to tilt in their favor, several powerful dark warriors walked out of the castle. These dark warriors were tall, wrapped in black armor, and holding huge black swords in their hands.

"It seems like we've run into a tough guy." Ye Li said with a frown.

A dark warrior rushed towards Zhang Meng, raised his black sword and chopped it down with force. Zhang Meng let the giant rock bear spirit completely possess him, and then used his bear paw to block the sword.

"What a great strength!" Zhang Meng felt a huge force coming, and his feet sank into the ground.

The dark warrior took advantage of Zhang Meng's unstable footing and swung several swords in succession. Zhang Meng could only resist passively, feeling a little embarrassed for a while.

Qin Feng saw Zhang Meng in trouble and rushed over to support him. He and Zhang Meng joined forces, one attacked the left side of the dark warrior, and the other attacked the right side. Although the dark warrior was strong, he was gradually unable to resist the attack of the two.

On the other side, Chu Tian and Ye Li also started a fierce battle with other dark warriors. Although Chu Tian's thunder spirit power was strong, the dark warrior's armor seemed to have a certain resistance to thunder and lightning, and each attack could only leave a shallow mark on the armor.

Ye Li used the frost fox's coldness to try to freeze the dark warrior's movements, but there seemed to be a dark force in the dark warrior's body that was constantly dispelling the coldness.

The students were not idle either. They used various martial arts skills to harass the dark cultists and prevented them from having the chance to support the dark warriors.

The battle reached a stalemate, with both sides fighting back and forth and neither side giving in.

Suddenly, a man in black robes appeared on the top of the dark castle. This man in black robes exuded a powerful dark soul power. He waved his hands and a huge dark soul power wave swept towards Chu Tian and others.

"Everyone be careful!" Chu Tian shouted, and he quickly flew into the air, trying to use his thunder soul power to resist this soul power wave.

However, the power of this dark soul wave was beyond his imagination. After his thunder soul power collided with the dark soul wave, it was instantly suppressed and then bounced back towards him.

Chu Tian was hit by his own soul power and his body fell to the ground like a cannonball.

"Chu Tian!" Ye Li exclaimed. She wanted to catch Chu Tian, ​​but was entangled by the dark warrior in front of her.

Qin Feng was anxious when he saw this situation. He raised the soul power of the Dragon Shadow Sword to the extreme, and then rushed towards the dark soul power wave.

"Dragon Shadow Breaks the Soul!" Qin Feng shouted, and the Dragon Shadow Sword turned into a huge sword shadow, colliding head-on with the dark soul power wave.

The sword shadow and the soul power wave were in a stalemate, and Qin Feng felt that his soul power was being consumed. But he gritted his teeth, with only one belief in his heart, that is, he must not let this soul power wave hurt his partner.

Just when Qin Feng was about to collapse, Zhang Meng suddenly rushed over. He injected all the power of his Giant Rock Bear Martial Spirit into Qin Feng's body to help him resist the dark soul power wave.

With the joint efforts of the two, the dark soul power wave was finally repelled.

"Phew, that was close." Qin Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The black-robed man was a little annoyed when he saw his attack was neutralized. He began to form seals with his hands and muttered something, as if he was preparing a more powerful spell.

"We can't let him succeed. We have to find a way to stop him." Ye Li said.

Chu Tian got up from the ground. Although he was injured, his eyes were still firm: "I have a way. Let's attack him together and disrupt his spell."

So, Chu Tian, ​​Qin Feng, Ye Li and Zhang Meng rushed towards the black-robed man on the top of the castle. The students also used their strongest skills to attack the black-robed man.

The man in black robes saw them rushing over and sneered, "Do you think you can stop me like this? You are too naive."

He increased the speed of forming seals, and a huge dark vortex formed in front of him. The dark vortex emitted a strong suction force, trying to suck Chu Tian and others in.

Chu Tian and others were pulled by the suction of the dark vortex, and their bodies involuntarily moved closer to the vortex.

"Everyone hold on!" Qin Feng shouted.

They released their soul power to the maximum, trying to resist the suction of the dark vortex.

At this moment, something unexpected happened. The mysterious old man who had provided them with clues suddenly appeared on the top of the castle.

"Oh, you guys really came." The old man said with a smile.

When the man in black robe saw the old man, his expression changed: "How dare you show up, traitor!"

The old man shrugged: "Why shouldn't I? Today is your end."

The little old man took out a bead emitting white light from his cloth bag and threw it into the dark vortex.

After the white bead entered the dark vortex, it began to release a strong purifying light. The purifying light collided with the dark vortex, and the dark vortex began to tremble violently.

"What is this?" the man in black robe asked in panic.

The old man said proudly: "This is the Holy Pearl of Light, which is specially used to restrain the dark forces like you."

Under the effect of the Holy Pearl of Light, the dark vortex gradually dissipated. The black-robed man's spell was interrupted, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Don't be happy too soon!" The man in black robe was furious. He jumped down from the top of the castle and pounced towards Chu Tian and others.

A black long sword appeared in his hand, which was wrapped with thick dark soul power.

Chu Tian and others were not afraid at all. They rushed towards the man in black robe.

The two sides once again engaged in a fierce close combat. The black-robed man's swordsmanship was sharp, and each sword carried a powerful dark force. But Chu Tian and others cooperated tacitly, supporting each other and not giving the black-robed man any chance to take advantage.

During the battle, Qin Feng discovered a flaw in the black-robed man. He seized the opportunity and stabbed the black-robed man's abdomen with the Dragon Shadow Sword. The black-robed man wanted to dodge, but it was too late and he was stabbed by the Dragon Shadow Sword.

The man in black robe let out a scream and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground.

"You lose." Qin Feng said coldly.

The man in black robes looked at them unwillingly: "Do you think you can eliminate the dark forces like this? Our leader is much stronger than me. Sooner or later, you will be defeated by him."

After saying this, the black-robed man's body began to dissipate and eventually turned into a wisp of black smoke.

With the defeat of the man in black, the dark cultists and dark warriors also lost their fighting spirit and began to flee in all directions.

"Should we chase them?" asked a student.

Chu Tian shook his head: "Not yet, we have to explore this dark castle first, maybe we can find more clues about the leader of the dark forces."

So, they walked into the dark castle. The castle was filled with dark soul power, and various strange portraits and symbols were hung on the walls.

They searched the castle carefully, leaving no room untouched.

In a room, they found a dark magic book. Ye Li opened the magic book and took a look, her face became very solemn.

"It records some evil plans of the dark forces. They seem to be looking for a way to open the door to the dark world. Once the door is opened, the power of the dark world will pour into the spirit world, and the situation will be unimaginable." Ye Li said.

"It seems we must find their leader as soon as possible and stop this plan." Chu Tian said with a frown.

Just as they were about to continue their search, an alarm suddenly sounded in the castle.

"Oh no, a trap may have been triggered." Qin Feng said.

They hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound, a new crisis seemed to be about to come.
