Chapter 112 Spider
Chapter 112 Spider
Cen Ran's heart sank suddenly. Before he could stop him, Lin Yu rushed into the group of spiders like an arrow.
He swung the long sword in his hand, silver light flashed, and wherever the sword energy passed, the black spiders were cut in two, and dark green blood spurted out, with an extremely fishy smell.
Wei Jing followed closely behind. The long sword in his hand was like a snake spitting out its tongue. Every swing accurately hit the spider's vital points. His movements were crisp and clear, without any delay.
The two of them cooperated well, and for a moment, the spider group was suppressed.
Cen Ran took a deep breath. She knew that now was not the time to panic, she had to stay calm.
She looked around and found that there were too many spiders, coming in like a tide, as if endless, and this was not a place for a long battle.
She yelled at the two men who were fighting, "We have to retreat! There are too many spiders here, we will be exhausted to death!"
Although Lin Yu was eager to fight, after hearing Cen Ran's analysis, he knew that she was right. He roared, swept the sword in his hand suddenly, forced back the spider in front of him, and took the opportunity to escape.
Wei Jing also understood what he meant. He swung his sword horizontally, swept away the spiders around him, and protected Lin Yu as he retreated.
The three of them gathered together and quickly left the spider's encirclement.
After everyone retreated to a safe distance, Cen Ran quickly glanced around. They were at the edge of a slightly sparse woods. In the distance, an ancient and dense forest came into view.
She pointed in the direction of the forest and said, "That might be the place we are looking for."
Lingfeng also nodded, his eyes sharp. He gently waved the staff in his hand, and a faint light flashed, guiding the direction.
He said solemnly, "This forest is not simple. According to ancient records, it was once the site of an ancient magical war. Many powerful and dangerous magical forces remain here, and perhaps it has also given birth to some mysterious creatures."
His voice was low and filled with a hint of worry, which made everyone feel a little uneasy.
Cen Ran looked at the gloomy forest. She could feel an oppressive atmosphere coming from there, and there was a faint magical fluctuation in the air.
But she still took firm steps and walked towards the depths of the forest, with Wei Jing and Lin Yu following closely behind.
"crunch-"
As they stepped into the edge of the forest, they heard a teeth-grinding sound of branches breaking under their feet.
Gu Ling suddenly exclaimed in a low voice: "Be careful!" At the same time, everyone felt a strong sense of crisis coming towards them. Cen Ran immediately stopped and her eyes swept around like an eagle.
A complex emotion of excitement and worry surged in Cen Ran's heart. He was excited because deep in this ancient forest, there might be hidden the secret they were desperately pursuing. He was worried because unknown dangers were also following closely.
She pursed her lips, frowned slightly, and her bright eyes flashed with determination.
However, the next second, the sky suddenly darkened, as if covered by a huge black cloth.
Cen Ran looked up suddenly and saw a huge black shadow slowly descending.
It was a huge creature that had never been seen before. Its outstretched wings covered the sky and the sun, like two huge black clouds, blocking out the sunlight.
On its hideous head, a pair of scarlet eyes were looking down at them with a suffocating sense of oppression.
The appearance of this mysterious creature seemed to cast an even more eerie atmosphere over the forest.
Its body is covered with pitch-black scales, which gleam with an icy sheen in the mottled shadows of the forest.
Its huge beak opened slightly, and thick black smoke gushed out from it, like a group of snarling devils, instantly filling the surrounding air, covering the sky and the sun, making everyone's vision blurred.
Cen Ran's heart was filled with alarm, and she tightly gripped the weapon in her hand. The aura of this powerful creature alone was enough to scare people.
She knew they faced unprecedented challenges.
She could feel the magical fluctuations in the air becoming stronger, carrying with them a hint of corrosive aura that stimulated their senses.
"Be careful!" Ling Feng's voice was filled with a hint of fear, reminding everyone. The staff in his hand also emitted a dazzling light, trying to disperse the black smoke that enveloped the surroundings, but with little effect.
Seeing this, Wei Jing and Lin Yu did not hesitate at all. They rushed towards the huge figure like two sharp arrows. The long swords in their hands made a sound of breaking through the air and flashed with sharp cold light.
"You..." Cen Ran was about to speak, but saw that Wei Jing and Lin Yu's figures had been completely swallowed up by the black smoke. She could only see two blurry sword lights flickering in the smoke, like candlelight swaying in the wind and rain, looking so insignificant.
Gu Ling screamed and wanted to help, but was stopped by Ling Feng. A rare serious look appeared on his face.
"Be careful!" Ling Feng had just finished speaking when he saw a pair of huge wings suddenly stretch out from the black fog, and they flapped towards him fiercely with powerful impact force.
The thick black fog was like the breath of a giant beast, instantly engulfing Wei Jing and Lin Yu.
Two sword lights struggled and flickered in the thick fog, but they were as small and weak as the light of fireflies.
The next moment, two figures flew out from the black fog and fell heavily at Cen Ran's feet, their life or death unknown.
The giant beast let out a deafening roar, and flapped its huge wings again, stirring up a gust of wind that carried a strong stench and rushed straight towards Cen Ran.
Cen Ran tapped his toes lightly and leaped back nimbly, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.
The dagger in her hand flashed with a cold light and stabbed towards the wings of the giant beast, but it was like hitting hard steel, leaving only a shallow white mark.
"Its defense is extremely high, and ordinary attacks are ineffective!" Cen Ran's heart sank. The power of this giant beast was beyond her imagination.
"I'm here to help you!" Gu Ling shouted, and the staff in her hand burst into dazzling light, and green energy beams shot towards the giant beast like raindrops.
Lingfeng also attacked at the same time, waving the staff in his hand, and golden runes wrapped around the body of the giant beast like chains.
However, this powerful magic attack was like a gentle breeze on the giant beast, only stirring up a few black scales and causing no substantial damage to it.
The giant beast roared in disdain, and its scarlet eyes stared at Cen Ran, as if it regarded her as prey.
Cen Ran took a deep breath and thought of the treasure she had obtained before. That treasure contained powerful energy and might be their only hope.
Cen Ran closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and tried to guide the power in the treasure.
A faint golden light began to appear around her body, and the light became stronger and stronger, eventually forming a huge golden ball of light that enveloped her.
"Now!" Cen Ran suddenly opened his eyes, and golden light shot out like a sharp sword, hitting the giant beast's chest hard.
The giant beast let out a shrill scream, and its huge body trembled violently. Its black scales fell off, revealing bloody wounds.
It let out an unwilling roar, flapped its huge wings violently, and disappeared into the thick fog.
Cen Ran slowly fell to the ground, the golden light gradually dissipated, she felt her body weakened, but her heart was full of hope.
"We... won?" Lin Yu's weak voice came.
Cen Ran looked at Wei Jing and Lin Yu lying on the ground, as well as Gu Ling and Ling Feng with solemn expressions, and slowly shook her head, "No, this is just the beginning..." She raised her head and looked into the depths of the forest, where something seemed to be stirring...
"Let's go."
