Sensing the combined power of the two, a flicker of fear crossed the black-robed man's eyes, but he did not cease his attack. He formed another hand seal, and powerful dark energy gathered around him, as if preparing for a final strike.
"You foolish humans will never be able to defeat me!" the black-robed man roared, as dark energy condensed into a massive tornado that rushed towards Zhang Yuan and his companions.

At this critical moment of life and death, a resolute glint flashed in Zhang Yuan's eyes, and he shouted, "Concentrate! Find his weakness!"
The three men's gazes met, as if they had found common ground. Clenching their teeth under the impact of the dark power, they simultaneously discovered a fatal flaw in the black-robed man.
"Attack!" Zhang Yuan shouted, and the three of them attacked simultaneously, each targeting the black-robed man's weak points.
"What?!" the black-robed man cried out in terror, but it was too late. Surrounded by the three men, he was struck heavily, letting out a scream as he was sent flying, his dark energy instantly dissipating.
“It’s over…” Zhang Yuan said breathlessly, looking at the black-robed man lying on the ground with a hint of relief in his eyes.
However, the silver-armored woman's gaze suddenly turned serious. She pointed at the black-robed man and said, "Wait, look..."
As everyone looked on, they saw the figure of the man in black robes slowly twisting on the ground before finally turning into a cloud of black smoke and disappearing into the air.
"He's not dead yet!" Zhang Yuan frowned, a sense of unease rising within him.
"What exactly is going on?" The young soldier looked at Zhang Yuan and the silver-armored woman with a puzzled expression and his eyes were filled with anxiety.
"He might have another trick up his sleeve," the silver-armored woman said in a low voice, her spear still poised for action.
"No matter what, we can't let him succeed again!" Zhang Yuan said firmly, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.
Seeing this, the villagers straightened their backs and expressed their continued support for them.
"Lord Zhang Yuan, we believe you will surely defeat all evil!" an old man shouted, and the other villagers echoed his sentiments.
"That's good, we'll fight to the end together!" Zhang Yuan replied loudly, exchanging a glance with the silver-armored woman, his heart filled with determination.
"This time, we must end all of this completely!" the silver-armored woman said firmly, her spear gleaming with a cold light.
"Let's go together!" the young soldier shouted, brandishing his heavy sword, ready to meet the challenge ahead.
Just as they were preparing to rejoin the battle, a strange sound came from outside the palace. A vague premonition arose in everyone's hearts, as if an even greater storm was about to break…
"What was that sound?" Zhang Yuan asked alertly.
"It seems... something is approaching..." The silver-armored woman frowned, and the spear in her hand trembled slightly.
"We must be prepared," Zhang Yuan said in a deep voice, his eyes gleaming with determination.
The crowd quickly dispersed, each seeking the most advantageous position to face the unknown threat. Although the villagers were filled with fear, they were inspired by the strength displayed by Zhang Yuan and his companions, gripping their farm tools or makeshift weapons tightly, ready to fight alongside them.
Just then, the strange sound gradually became clearer, a deep and powerful footstep, each step shaking the earth and sending shivers down one's spine. "It's coming! It's getting closer!" the young soldier shouted, his voice filled with both tension and fighting spirit.
"Don't panic, maintain formation, and keep a close eye on your surroundings." The silver-armored woman calmly directed everyone, her gaze sharp as a knife, seemingly able to see through all the schemes hidden in the thick darkness of the night. At the same time, Zhang Yuan closed his eyes, trying to use his spiritual sense to probe the location of the mysterious creature, attempting to glean some information from its yet-to-be-revealed aura.

Chapter 2232 A Chance to Escape
A moment later, a colossal figure appeared at the palace entrance, its size almost reaching the top of the cave; its skin was like iron-gray rock, incredibly hard. The monster exuded a putrid stench, and its two blood-red eyes stood out starkly in the darkness. "My God, such a huge monster..." a young villager exclaimed in terror, his wooden stick trembling slightly.
“Don’t be afraid! Now that it’s here, we have to drive it out!” another villager said bravely, trying to hide his fear.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuan immediately spoke: "Everyone, listen to my orders! Act according to the strategy we discussed earlier—"
The words had barely left his lips when the giant monster charged into the crowd. Its speed was astonishing, instantly knocking two warriors who were too close to the ground. "Good heavens, it's incredibly strong?!" Seeing this, the young warrior immediately swung his sword to rescue it, striking the monster's thigh with a heavy blow. Surprisingly, aside from leaving a few shallow scratches, it didn't cause any real damage. "This is tough..." he thought to himself, considering a countermeasure.
On the other side, Zhang Yuan and the silver-armored woman had already coordinated perfectly, attacking the monster separately. The former released a powerful shockwave of internal energy, directly striking the target's chest; the latter used agile movements to constantly circle behind the enemy, looking for opportunities to deliver a fatal blow. Although each attack failed to completely destroy the opponent, it effectively restrained the behemoth's movements, giving the rest of the team a chance to catch their breath and gradually adjust their battle plan.
Just as the situation was beginning to improve, an even more terrifying sound suddenly came from afar—more of these monsters were gathering in their direction! "How can there be so many?" a villager exclaimed in alarm. "This can't go on!"
Zhang Yuan took a deep breath, and a new plan emerged in his mind: "Listen, everyone, we need to change our tactics. The situation has become complicated, and we can't just think about fighting head-on." He turned to the silver-armored woman beside him and his friend who had been fighting bravely all along: "You two will lead everyone to retreat to a more open area for a defensive battle; and I will use some method to draw away some of the pursuers, giving you time to retreat."
Upon hearing this, everyone showed expressions of confusion or even opposition. The young man who had been following them closely, in particular, anxiously objected, saying, "Brother, what you're doing is too dangerous! Let us stay; perhaps we can still find a breakthrough."
"There's no time for arguments. Just trust me this once," Zhang Yuan replied firmly, then activated his internal energy, enveloping himself in a soft light. "Protect yourself, and take care of everyone."
As the last word fell, he transformed into a bolt of lightning and sped away, heading in another direction deeper into the labyrinth. His every move caused a commotion; the monsters, as if drawn by something, followed in his footsteps.
The remaining crowd, led by the silver-armored woman, began an orderly retreat. "Everyone, follow me, make sure you keep up with my pace!" she reminded everyone as she ran, emphasizing the importance of safety.
After passing through a dense forest, they finally reached an open area. At this point, a middle-aged woman couldn't help but ask, "Lord Zhang...does he really have a chance to escape?"

The woman in silver armor stopped, a complex expression in her eyes: "I trust him. Zhang Yuan's strength and wisdom are far beyond what ordinary people can match. We must trust him, and we must also be responsible for our own safety."
“But…” The middle-aged woman wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the young soldier: “What we need now is action! Trust Brother Zhang, he must have his own plan.”
The villagers nodded in agreement, though their hearts were still filled with unease. They knew they could only rely on themselves now. Just as everyone was preparing to regroup and fight the monster, a faint sound suddenly came from not far away. This sound was completely different from the footsteps of the enormous monster they had heard before.
"What is that?" the young villager asked warily.
Following the direction of the sound, everyone looked and saw a group of small figures slowly approaching—they were tiny creatures with pale blue skin, each holding a glowing staff. "Are they friends of the elves?" the young warrior asked疑惑地.
These little creatures seemed to understand human language. One of the elves, dressed in green leaf attire and appearing to be slightly older, spoke up: "We are part of the forest guardians, and we came here to help after learning what happened here."
"Great!" A cheer erupted from the crowd. "I never expected to meet an ally at a time like this."
"But... can you handle those behemoths?" The silver-armored woman looked at these seemingly fragile life forms with concern.
The little elf smiled slightly: "Power is not just about appearance. We have our own unique way of fighting."
Just then, another rumbling sound came from afar, indicating that the monsters were about to arrive. "There's no time to hesitate, please allow us to join the battle." The sprites quickly formed ranks, their staffs radiating dazzling light.
"Everyone, get ready!" the silver-armored woman ordered, turning to the bravest warriors. "Our job is to protect everyone and delay the monster's advance as much as possible."
"Understood!" everyone responded in unison. Although the road ahead was unknown, at this moment they were all willing to do their best for their common goal.
As the first monster rushed into view, the sprites launched their attack: several beams of light shot from their hands, weaving into a curtain of light in the air; simultaneously, Zhang Yuan's teammates, left behind, also charged forward, brandishing various weapons. The melee suddenly became incredibly fierce…
On the other side, Zhang Yuan, relying on his powerful spiritual senses and understanding of the underground labyrinth environment, cleverly lured most of the monsters to chase after him. "Looks like the plan is going smoothly," he muttered to himself, panting, secretly vowing to ensure his companions' safe evacuation no matter what.
However, his good fortune didn't last long. Just when Zhang Yuan thought he had temporarily shaken off his pursuers, a chilling growl suddenly sounded behind him—turning around, he saw that it was the giant monster that had appeared at the beginning, following him alone! "Damn it!" Zhang Yuan's heart tightened, realizing that this time it probably wouldn't be so easy to escape.
"Boy, you can't escape." An aged yet extremely authoritative voice came from the giant beast's mouth, as if it could speak.

Chapter 771 The Monster That Attacked
"Can we really defeat these guys?" Su Ting asked somewhat uneasily, his voice trembling slightly, but his eyes were filled with determination.
"As long as we are united, there is nothing we cannot overcome," Su Ting said firmly, gripping the Heavenly Meteor Sword tightly in his hand, feeling a powerful force emanating from the blade.
“That’s right! We’ve come this far, we can’t back down no matter what!” The woman raised her longbow, the arrows glowing faintly with blue light, ready to be released.
"Hey, don't forget I have a lot of treasures too!" Xiao Gang said excitedly, rummaging through his backpack and pulling out all sorts of strange bottles and scrolls. "These are things I specially prepared for this adventure!"
"You usually seem pretty carefree, but I didn't expect you to be so reliable when it really matters!" Su Ting patted Xiao Gang on the shoulder with a smile.
"Hmph, I don't want you guys to steal my thunder!" Xiao Gang raised his eyebrows smugly.
As they spoke, the leading monster let out a deafening roar, the ground began to tremble violently, and debris flew everywhere. The monsters seemed to have sensed their presence and were closing in on them, the pressure in the air increasing rapidly.
"Alright, everyone get ready, let's go!" Su Ting shouted, leading the charge. With his movement, the entire team charged forward like awakened beasts, launching a fierce attack on the monsters.
The villagers' exclamations and shouts rose and fell. Although they hadn't joined the fight, their cheers from the rear gave them tremendous encouragement. "Come on, young men! We believe you can win!" an old man shouted, his eyes full of trust and expectation for them.
In the midst of the fierce battle, Su Ting wielded the Heavenly Meteor Sword, each strike accompanied by a dazzling burst of light, seemingly capable of tearing through the darkness before him. At the same time, he felt the power within the sword gradually awakening, a power that seemed to originate from an ancient deity, making him feel incredibly powerful.
"Su Ting, watch out on the left!" The woman's voice echoed across the battlefield as her arrow flashed through the air like lightning, accurately striking a monster that was launching a sneak attack.
"Thank you so much, Ayao!" Su Ting replied gratefully, then turned to face more enemies.
On the other side, Xiao Gang also put his unique props to use, with potions and scrolls exploding in the air, creating various wonderful effects. Some froze the monsters for a moment, while others released dazzling light, temporarily blinding them.
"Wow, that's amazing!" The villagers watching exclaimed in amazement, their eyes glued to the intense battle on the battlefield.
After a fierce battle, thanks to everyone's combined efforts, those terrifying monsters fell one by one, turning into ashes. The surrounding air seemed to become much fresher, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, just as everyone was preparing to celebrate their victory, the portal suddenly began to flicker and emit a piercing sound. Su Ting looked in that direction alertly and saw a blurry figure gradually emerge.
"This is..." Su Ting said in surprise, and the others also stopped and looked at the mysterious figure.

"Heh, just as I expected, you've come after all." The figure chuckled coldly, his voice carrying an indescribable eeriness.
"Who are you?!" Su Ting demanded in a deep voice, while simultaneously adopting a defensive stance.
The figure slowly stepped out of the portal, revealing a pale and cold face. A cunning glint flashed in his eyes, and a cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"Who I am is not important, but what you are about to face will be your most difficult test," the figure said calmly, his words revealing an unwavering determination.
"No matter who you are, we will not let you succeed!" Su Ting said firmly, and those around him agreed.
