Chapter 629: Escape from the Collapsed Castle and a New Journey

"Run, this castle is going to bury us alive!" Zhang Meng shouted at the top of his voice, his strong legs moving very fast like two Hot Wheels.

Chu Tian led the way in front, using his soul power to sense the surrounding situation while running: "Everyone follow me closely, go this way!"

Everyone was running wildly in the narrow and shaking passage, with stones falling from the top of their heads. Each stone was as big as a millstone, and if someone was hit by it, they would be turned into a meat patty.

"Oh, this castle is too fragile. It collapses at any time." A student said breathlessly. His face was covered with dust and he looked like a little cat.

Ye Li rolled her eyes at him: "It's because we have been fiddling around in there for a long time and triggered a lot of traps."

Qin Feng held the container containing the crystal ball tightly, and the Dragon Shadow Sword cleared the way in front, picking up the rubble that blocked the road one by one: "It's already this late, and you're still chatting, run!"

Suddenly, a fork in the road appeared ahead. The passage on the left was filled with thick dark soul power, while the passage on the right was burning with flames.

"Which way are we going?" a student asked anxiously.

Chu Tian thought for a moment and said, "Although the dark soul power on the left is dangerous, the flame passage looks even more unreliable. Let's go to the left."

Everyone rushed into the left passage without hesitation. As soon as they entered, the dark soul power was like countless small hands, pulling their bodies.

"Why is this dark soul power like glue, so sticky?" Zhang Meng said while struggling.

"Everyone, use your soul power to resist and don't be affected by it." Chu Tian shouted.

They rushed forward with all their might, and every step was full of hardship. Just when the dark soul force was pulling the most, Qin Feng suddenly felt the Dragon Shadow Sword trembling slightly.

"This sword seems to be giving me a hint of something." Qin Feng's heart moved. He looked in the direction where the Dragon Shadow Sword was shaking and found a vague rune on the wall.

Qin Feng stabbed the rune with a sword. After the rune was broken, the pulling feeling of the dark soul power disappeared instantly.

"Qin Feng, you are really a lucky star!" Ye Li said with a smile.

After running forward for a while, they finally saw the light of the exit.

"Come on, we'll be out soon!" Chu Tian shouted.

They used up their last bit of strength and rushed towards the exit. Just as they stepped out of the castle, a huge roar came from behind them, and the entire dark castle completely collapsed, raising a huge cloud of dust.

"Phew, that was a close call. I was almost buried in it." Zhang Meng said, patting his chest.

"Yes, but we also gained a lot." Qin Feng said, looking at the container in his arms.

After a short rest, Chu Tian stood up: "Now we know that the leader of the dark forces is in the dark abyss. Although that place sounds scary, we must go there."

"That's right, but before that, we have to go back to the Soul Master Academy to make some preparations." Ye Li said.

Everyone nodded in agreement and headed towards the Soul Master Academy.

After returning to the Soul Master Academy, the students gathered around them and asked them curiously about their experiences in the Dark Castle.

"Wow, that sounds so exciting. I also want to go on an adventure." A young student said enviously.

"Don't think it's too simple. There are many dangers in there. You may lose your life if you are not careful." Zhang Meng pretended to be serious and threatened him.

Chu Tian and others came to the conference room and began to discuss the plan to go to the dark abyss.

"The Dark Abyss is the source of dark soul power. We need to prepare some items that can resist the powerful dark soul power." Ye Li said.

"I think we still need to improve our strength, especially our ability to resist and purify dark soul power." Qin Feng added.

"Then we can open a special training course in the academy specifically for dealing with dark soul power." Chu Tian suggested.

Therefore, in the next few days, the academy was very lively. The students actively participated in the special training courses, while Chu Tian, ​​Qin Feng and others searched for useful props in the academy's treasure house.

"This light shield looks good. It can resist attacks from dark soul power." Chu Tian said, holding a shield emitting white light.

"There is also this purification bell. Shaking it can release purifying soul power, which can dispel the dark soul power." Ye Li also found a small bell.

Zhang Meng dug out a huge hammer from the corner and said, "This hammer looks very powerful. I don't know what it is used for, but it's always a good idea to have it."

After a few days of preparation, they felt it was almost ready.

"Okay, let's set off for the dark abyss." Chu Tian said.

They set out on the journey again with a group of outstanding students. This time the journey was more difficult than before, because in the direction of the dark abyss, the breath of dark soul power filled the air, making people feel depressed.

"We haven't even arrived yet and I'm already feeling so uncomfortable." A student said with a frown.

"Everyone cheer up. The closer we get to the dark abyss, the stronger the dark soul power will be." Qin Feng reminded.

As they continued to move forward, the surrounding environment became increasingly harsh. The once vibrant forest turned withered and yellow, the animals disappeared, and only a dead silence remained.

"This place seems to be cursed." Ye Li said.

Suddenly, a black swamp appeared in front of us. Black bubbles were coming out of the swamp, and when the bubbles burst, a pungent smell was emitted.

"This swamp looks dangerous, everyone be careful." Chu Tian said.

They carefully moved along the edge of the swamp, but a few students accidentally stepped on the edge of the swamp and were immediately pulled by the suction of the swamp.

"Teacher, help!" the students shouted in horror.

Zhang Meng quickly stretched out the giant rock bear's paw and pulled the students back.

"Follow closely and don't run around." Zhang Meng said loudly.

After finally bypassing the swamp, they encountered a group of birds that were corroded by dark soul power. The eyes of these birds were red, and they swooped down at everyone and attacked with their sharp claws.

Qin Feng wielded the Dragon Shadow Sword, drawing several soul blades in the air, shooting down the birds one after another.

"These flying birds have all turned dark, how pitiful." Ye Li said with some regret.

After moving forward for a while, they finally saw the entrance to the dark abyss. It was a huge black hole, surrounded by black soul vortexes, and from time to time, bursts of low roars could be heard.

"This is the dark abyss. It looks so scary." A student said tremblingly.

"Don't be afraid, let's go in together." Chu Tian encouraged.

They took a deep breath and walked towards the entrance of the dark abyss. As soon as they stepped into the black hole, a strong dark soul force rushed towards them, as if to devour their souls.

"Everyone, use the shield of light and purified soul power to resist!" Qin Feng shouted.

Everyone used their own defensive measures and moved forward into the dark abyss with difficulty.

The passage in the dark abyss was winding and very narrow, only allowing one person to pass through. Black soul tentacles kept extending from the wall to attack them.

"This place is full of traps." Zhang Meng said as he waved his bear paw to slap the tentacles.

As they advanced, they discovered some strange symbols carved into the walls.

"These symbols look like a warning." Ye Li said.

"No matter what it is, we can't turn back." Chu Tian said firmly.

Suddenly, a huge dark soul barrier appeared in front of them, blocking their way.

"This barrier is so strong, how can we break through it?" asked a student.

Qin Feng walked forward and observed the barrier carefully: "I think we can try to use the purification bell and everyone's purification soul power to attack together, maybe we can break it."

Following Qin Feng's suggestion, everyone placed the purification bell in the middle, and then injected the purification soul power into the bell together. The bell emitted a bright light, which became stronger and stronger, and finally formed a beam of light that shot towards the barrier.

After some effort, the barrier was finally broken.

Continuing forward, they saw a huge dark palace. In the palace sat a man in a black robe, exuding an extremely powerful dark soul power that made people dare not look directly at him.

"You are finally here, you stupid guys." The man in black robe said coldly.

"You are the leader of the dark forces, right? Today is your doomsday!" Chu Tian shouted.

"Just you? You really overestimate your abilities." The man in black robe said disdainfully.

A thrilling battle is about to break out in the palace of the dark abyss. Can Chu Tian and others defeat this powerful leader of the dark forces? What challenges will they face? All this is full of unknowns.
