Everyone approached the vortex carefully, and a powerful wave of energy rushed towards them, as if they were about to swallow them.

The air was filled with a strange breath of energy, with a hint of burning heat, stimulating their skin.

"What a powerful force!" Zhang Langzhong felt the fluctuations of energy, and his eyes were flashing with excitement.

Just as everyone was studying the vortex, a figure slowly walked out of the vortex.

The figure was tall and burly, wearing a black robe, and the hood covered his face, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.

"It's him!" Xiaohong exclaimed, and her face turned pale in an instant.

Everyone also recognized the person, which was the black-robed wizard he had met in the rune formation before.

He exuded a stronger aura, and the feeling of danger was stronger than before.

The air seemed to solidify, so depressing that it made people breathless.

The black-robed wizard slowly raised his head, revealing his pale face, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He stretched out a hand and pointed at everyone, his voice hoarse and low: "Long time no see..."

Everyone was facing a great enemy, their eyes locked on the black-robed wizard, as if a cheetah was staring at his prey, and they refused to let him go in the slightest movement.

The air seemed to be pinched by an invisible hand, solidifying into a heavy lead block, making people breathless.

Everyone's breathing became cautious, fearing that a little sound would make a breaking of this suffocating silence.

Before they knew it, they gathered together, back to back, like birds in a storm, snuggling together, ready to welcome the coming storm.

The strange smile on the corner of the black-robed wizard's mouth widened. He suddenly raised his hand and a dark light containing the power of destruction shot towards everyone like a poisonous snake.

"Be careful!" Xiaohong exclaimed, reminding everyone.

The man in white shook his figure and blocked everyone. He formed seals with both hands, and a white light curtain suddenly unfolded, barely resisting the impact of the dark light.

The dark force collided with the white light curtain, making a deafening roar, and energy overflowed, causing the surrounding leaves to roar.

Luo Xiaoyu clenched her fists nervously, stared at the changes in the field, ready to take action at any time.

The shock wave of the dark power has not yet dissipated, and the black-robed wizard waved his hand again, and countless black energy blades shot towards everyone like raindrops.

The energy blade was extremely fast, slashing through the air and making a sharp whistle, like the death talisman of the God of Death.

Everyone dodged left and right, exhausted from dealing with it. Blacksmith Zhao could not dodge and was hit in the chest by an energy blade. He groaned and fell to the ground.

"Blacksmith!" Li Liehuo exclaimed, trying to go forward to check, but was forced to retreat repeatedly by the subsequent attacks.

As everyone retreated step by step, the formation was about to be dispersed.

The mysterious old man who had been silent suddenly opened his turbid eyes. He took out a simple jade pendant from his arms. The surface of the jade pendant was carved with mysterious runes and emitted a faint golden light.

The old man slowly raised the jade pendant and muttered something. A powerful wave of energy emanated from the jade pendant, covering everyone.

At this moment, the black-robed wizard launched an attack again. This time, his hands were spread out, as if he wanted to embrace the whole world. A huge black vortex appeared in front of him. In the vortex, countless black lightnings surged violently, making deafening explosions.

He sneered, his low and hoarse voice seemed to come from the abyss of hell, with infinite malice: "Are you ready for despair?"

The attack of the black-robed wizard poured down like a storm. The black vortex of energy seemed to devour everything. The resistance of the crowd seemed so insignificant in front of him.

The despair surged into their hearts like a tide, which made them breathless.

They feel like a small boat in the sea, and they may be swallowed by huge waves at any time.

Elder Chen tried his best to protect Grandma Lin behind him. A black energy blade cut through his back, and blood instantly dyed his clothes red.

He groaned, staggered and fell down, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Elder Chen!" Everyone exclaimed, surrounded him and anxiously checked his injuries.

"Ahem...I'm fine..." Elder Chen said weakly, his face pale as paper.

Xiaohong looked at the injured Elder Chen, tears rolling in her eyes. She bit her lips tightly, trying not to let the tears flow.

Just when everyone thought they could only rely on the mysterious old man's jade pendant and fought to the death with the black-robed wizard, Li Huowen suddenly pointed to the black-robed wizard's back and exclaimed: "Look! What's behind him?"

Everyone looked in the direction of Li Liehun's finger and saw a rune mark with a dark red light behind the black-robed wizard.

This mark is like an eye hidden in the darkness, emitting a strange aura.

"What is that?" Luo Xiaoyu asked in surprise.

Everyone looked at each other and saw surprise and hope in each other's eyes.

"Is that... that's his weakness?" Zhang Langzhong murmured to himself.

Xiaohong's eyes were locked tightly on the rune mark, and a bold idea suddenly surged in her heart.

She took a deep breath and said to everyone: "We..."

The fire of hope ignited in everyone's eyes, and worked together, rushing towards the black-robed wizard like an arrow from the string.

The man in white flew his hands, and white light burst out on his fingertips, turning into a solid barrier, temporarily blocking the black energy of the black robe wizard.

Liehuo and Zhao Blacksmith were like two furious bulls, roaring in front. They waved their weapons, with the momentum of breaking the wind, and pointed directly at the runes behind the black-robed wizard.

"Bang!" With a muffled sound, Li Huowen's mace slammed hard on the back of the black-robed wizard, and the rune flashing with a dark red light in the middle.

The black-robed wizard's body shook, and the originally violent energy vortex instantly became disordered and its power decreased sharply.

The black energy that had already been so overwhelming that everyone was breathless also became sparse.

"Success!" Luo Xiaoyu shouted excitedly, and the fatigue on her face was replaced by joy.

Everyone had victory smiles on their faces, and they high-fives and cheered loudly to celebrate this hard-won victory.

The air around seemed to have become brighter because of their emotions, and the feeling of depression was swept away, replaced by a kind of ease and pleasure.

The dawn of victory is so dazzling and so exciting at this moment.

The man in white put away his spell, rushed to Xiaohong with one step, and hugged her tightly into his arms.

Xiaohong snuggled in his broad chest, feeling his warm embrace, and her heart was filled with peace of mind and sweetness.

She raised her head,

Grandma Lin looked at the group of young people kindly, with a gratifying smile on her face, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes stretched out, like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Liewoo scratched his head and smiled honestly, his white teeth shining in the sun.

The whole scene was filled with warmth and hope, and everyone's emotions were greatly soothed.

The air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers, and the breeze blew by, bringing coolness, as if chanting in a low voice for their victory.

"We are about to win!" Luo Xiaoyu shouted excitedly, his voice full of expectations.

Just when everyone thought the black-robed wizard was about to be defeated, the black-robed wizard suddenly let out a gloomy laugh, and his low and hoarse voice echoed in the air, like the whisper of a devil from hell.

"Innocent."
