Chapter 862: A New Threat in the Dark

As the figure of the black-robed man was completely swallowed by the darkness, the oppressive feeling in the air gradually weakened. Zhang Meng panted, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said excitedly: "Haha! Qin Feng, you see, I told you, it really works if you cut the right place! Let's get rid of this black-robed monster!"

Qin Feng put down his sword, his eyes still calm. Although the man in black robes had disappeared, he still felt that things were far from over. This man in black robes was just a member of the dark sect, and although his power was strong, he didn't seem to be the final core.

"Don't be too happy too soon, Mengzi." Qin Feng said slowly, his eyes still scanning the surroundings vigilantly, "We only defeated an enemy, but the power of the Dark Cult is still there, we are not finished yet."

Zhang Meng was about to speak when suddenly, the ground beneath his feet began to shake slightly, and then a low roar came faintly from the surrounding walls. The entire underground castle seemed to be responding to some ancient call, and the dark atmosphere in the air became thick again.

"What's going on?" Zhang Meng looked around in confusion, holding the giant axe tightly in his hand again, "Didn't we just kill the black-robed monster? Why is there still movement?"

Qin Feng frowned and whispered: "A greater threat is awakening. The dark power in this place is more complicated than we imagined."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground in the distance suddenly cracked, accompanied by a dull roar, and a strong dark breath poured out from the crack. The ground shook more and more violently, as if some huge existence hidden underground was awakening.

"Wow! Could it be a giant monster coming out this time?" Zhang Meng took a few steps back in horror, his eyes wide as big as copper bells.

Qin Feng did not answer, because he was not sure what would happen next. He only knew that the dark power in this area had reached a critical point, and if they did not find the core that controlled these powers as soon as possible, they would face unimaginable consequences.

"Mengzi, follow me closely and be prepared to deal with any situation." Qin Feng walked towards the crack while holding the sword tightly.

Just as they approached the crack, suddenly, a dazzling red light gushed out from the crack, and then a huge black shadow slowly rose from the crack. The black shadow was as tall as a mountain, wrapped in black smoke, and its eyes were like burning red flames, emitting a strong sense of oppression.

"Wow! This thing is so big!" Zhang Meng was stunned, his mouth slightly open, obviously shocked by the scene before him.

The shadow slowly lowered his head, staring at Qin Feng and Zhang Meng with cold eyes, and then let out a low roar. The roar was deafening, and the entire underground castle was shaking violently, as if it would collapse at any time.

"This thing is the real weapon of the Dark Sect!" Qin Feng's heart sank suddenly. He could feel the power of this black shadow, which far exceeded any enemy he had encountered before.

"How do we fight this guy?" Zhang Meng looked at the huge figure with some hesitation, and clenched his axe tightly. "How about I chop it with my axe first and try it out?"

Qin Feng did not answer immediately, but quickly thought of a countermeasure. The black shadow in front of him was obviously not an ordinary monster. Its power came from the core of darkness. A rash attack would only anger it. It was necessary to find its weakness.

"Mengzi, don't be impulsive." Qin Feng said in a deep voice, his eyes fixed on the black shadow's movements, "This guy is stronger than we thought. We can't be as simple and rough as we dealt with the previous enemies."

"What should we do then?" Zhang Meng looked at the huge black shadow and was obviously impatient to go up and chop it a few times.

"We have to test its power first." Qin Feng made the decision, then drew his sword and approached the direction of the black shadow.

The black shadow seemed to have noticed Qin Feng's movements, and suddenly let out a roar, then raised his huge arm high and slapped Qin Feng fiercely. A violent whistling sound suddenly rang out in the air, as if the entire space was collapsing.

Qin Feng quickly dodged sideways, and the sword in his hand flashed a cold light in the air, piercing the black shadow's arm. However, as soon as the sword touched the black shadow's body, it was bounced back by a strong rebound force and could not penetrate at all.

"Damn! This guy's defense is too strong!" Qin Feng quickly stepped back with a serious expression.

"Then let me try!" Seeing this, Zhang Meng roared, raised the giant axe, and chopped hard at the black shadow's body.

"boom!"

The giant axe hit the black shadow's shoulder with a dull sound, but the black shadow's body remained motionless, as if he had not suffered any damage at all.

"Is this guy made of iron?" Zhang Meng's eyes widened in shock. "I used all my strength to strike with the axe!"

Qin Feng frowned, obviously aware of the seriousness of the problem. The dark giant they were facing was not only powerful, but also almost impeccable in defense. Ordinary attacks could not cause any substantial damage to it.

"We must find its weakness!" Qin Feng said in a deep voice, quickly observing the movements of the black shadow.

The black shadow roared again, then swung its huge arms and attacked the two fiercely. Qin Feng and Zhang Meng dodged quickly, but each attack made the earth shake, and the walls of the entire underground castle began to crack, as if they would collapse at any time.

"Qin Feng, we have to think of a way, otherwise this place is really going to collapse!" Zhang Meng shouted loudly, dodging and looking for opportunities.

Qin Feng also realized the urgency of time. The dark power was gathering on this giant shadow. The longer it dragged on, the more dangerous the situation would become.

At this moment, Qin Feng's eyes suddenly fell on a red spot on the black shadow's chest. The red spot flickered with a faint light, and seemed to have some connection with its power.

"Mengzi, its weak point is in the chest!" Qin Feng gave an order and pointed to the light spot on the black shadow's chest.

Zhang Meng immediately looked towards the red dot and laughed, "I finally found your vital point! Watch me chop you to pieces with this axe!"

After saying that, he suddenly accelerated, raised the giant axe high, and aimed directly at the black shadow's chest. The black shadow seemed to realize Zhang Meng's intention, roared, and raised his arm to try to block his attack.

"Don't try to stop me!" Zhang Meng roared, leaped up suddenly, and swung the giant axe with powerful energy towards the black shadow's chest.

"boom--"

The giant axe hit the red dot accurately, and there was a loud noise, and the red light burst out instantly. The black shadow let out a shrill scream, and the body began to tremble violently, and the dark power around it quickly dissipated.

"Done!" Zhang Meng shouted excitedly, his giant axe still suspended in the air, as if he hadn't reacted yet.

However, just when they thought they had victory, the black shadow's body suddenly began to expand rapidly, and after the red dot exploded, the dark power seemed to lose control and became extremely violent.

"Oh no! It's going to explode!" Qin Feng's face changed drastically, and he immediately pulled Zhang Meng back.

"Ah? Explosion?" Before Zhang Meng could be happy, he saw the black shadow's body expanding rapidly. Then he immediately understood what Qin Feng meant, "Run!"

The two of them ran quickly towards the exit of the secret passage, while the black shadow behind them was gradually expanding, and could explode with destructive energy at any time.

"Hurry up! It's going to collapse!" Zhang Meng shouted as he ran. The shaking behind him became more and more intense, as if the whole world was collapsing.

"Don't look back, keep running!" Qin Feng urged while quickening his pace.
