A Mysterious Journey Through the Shang Dynasty

We looked at the Winged Guard in front of us in amazement, our hearts full of doubts and uneasiness. However, just before we could come up with a plan to deal with it, a shocking scene occurred. The Winged Guard's body suddenly began to be shrouded by a black mist, which seemed to have life, constantly wriggling and entwining.

In the palace, huge stone pillars cast long shadows in the dim light, like silent witnesses. The gemstones on the wall dimmed, and the whole space was filled with an oppressive atmosphere. We stared with wide eyes, watching the Winged Guard gradually change in the black fog. His body, which originally exuded a bright aura, was gradually eroded by darkness, and the light dimmed bit by bit. His wings became twisted, and the color changed from white to black. The original emptiness in his eyes was replaced by an evil light.

Soon, the Winged Guardian completely transformed into a shadowy monster. It let out a terrifying roar, and a strong dark aura instantly attacked us. Xiao Yan was so scared that he stepped back a few steps and let out a nervous low cry.

The companions were all stunned, not knowing what to do for a moment. Mo Yu tightly grasped the weapon in his hand and said solemnly: "This situation is too unexpected, we must be careful." Wang Yue also looked serious: "I didn't expect the Huiyi Guards to become like this, there must be a huge conspiracy behind this."

My heart sank suddenly, and fear and anxiety surged into my heart. But soon, a stubborn courage also rose. We have gone through so many difficulties without backing down, and now we must not be frightened by this sudden change. I secretly told myself that I must stay calm and find a way to solve the problem.

Mo Yu's eyes revealed determination. He was thinking that he had to protect everyone no matter what and not let this mutated shadow monster hurt anyone. He stared at the monster, ready to attack at any time, and said loudly: "Don't be afraid, everyone. We will definitely defeat it if we work together."

Wang Yue looked at the monster vigilantly while thinking quickly about how to deal with it. She recalled the information she had learned about the Shadow Monster and the Winged Guards, trying to find the key to solving this dilemma. "Everyone, pay attention to its attack rhythm and look for opportunities to counterattack." Wang Yue shouted.

At this time, the partners of the eight families also cheered up. A said: "We can't retreat, we must fight together!" B immediately said: "Yes, with so many of us, we can definitely defeat it." C also said loudly: "Everyone be careful and take care of each other."

We quickly adjusted our status and prepared to meet this new challenge. The Brilliant Winged Guardian who turned into a Shadow Monster was more ferocious than the ordinary Shadow Monster. Its attack was more fierce and its speed was faster. We resisted its attack with difficulty, and at the same time, we had to keep an eye on the movements of other Shadow Monsters around us. The ground of the palace shook slightly in the fierce battle, and dust fell from the stone pillars. The runes on the wall seemed to be affected by this powerful force, flashing unstable light.

Mo Yu rushed forward first. He was agile and wielded his weapon, flashing cold light. He dodged the attacks of the shadow monster while looking for its weakness. "Everyone be careful, this monster is very fast and its attacks are very fierce." Mo Yu reminded everyone loudly.

Wang Yue was observing the monster's movements and found that whenever the monster was about to launch a powerful attack, its body would sink slightly. "Pay attention, when its body sinks, it is about to launch a powerful attack," Wang Yue shouted.

I was not to be outdone. I concentrated my energy, used my observation and agility, and looked for opportunities in the gaps between the monster's attacks. I found that although the monster's wings were powerful, they were also its weakness, because when attacking, its wings would reveal some flaws. "Attack its wings!" I shouted loudly.

At this time, Homura also bravely joined the battle. It nimbly shuttled around the monster, and from time to time it used its claws to grab the monster's legs. The monster was enraged by Homura's attack and tried to attack Homura, but Homura was extremely fast and always managed to quickly dodge before the monster's attack arrived. Homura's low cry seemed like a battle horn, inspiring us to fight more bravely.

We cooperated with each other and had a tacit understanding. When the monster attacked, we quickly dodged; when there was an opportunity, we attacked decisively. The partners of the eight families also showed their abilities, some used powerful force to attack the monsters, and some used special skills to provide support for everyone.

During the battle, I tried to think about the reasons for all these changes. Why did the Winged Guard suddenly turn into a shadow monster? What secrets are hidden in this? Can we find a way to restore him to his original state? I kept asking myself this question while dodging the monster's attacks.

The battle is getting more and more intense, and each of us is exhausted, but we can't give up. We know that only by overcoming the difficulties in front of us can we continue to explore the secrets of the Lingyun Dynasty and find a way to resolve all these crises...
