My brother is Shi Hao

Shi Yi almost subconsciously walked towards the massive stone gate, his steps heavy, as if echoing the echoes of history. Shi Hao followed closely behind, the Supreme Bone warming faintly within him, as if responding to something. As they passed through the stone gate, the view before them suddenly opened up, yet they both gasped.

What appeared before them was not the treasure chamber they had imagined, but a desolate battlefield!

Torn battle flags lay planted on the scorched earth, rusted weapons scattered across the ground, and piles of bones piled high, silently testifying to the brutality of the war. The air was thick with the stench of blood and decay, a nauseating smell. Shi Yi and Shi Hao, caught in the midst of it, could almost sense the wailing of countless heroic souls. An invisible pressure enveloped them, suffocating them.

"Is this... an ancient battlefield?" Shi Hao's voice trembled a little. He subconsciously tightened the bone spear in his hand and looked around vigilantly.

Shi Yi remained silent, his pupils shimmering with light as he tried to discern the true nature of the battlefield. However, all he saw was a chaotic scene. Countless fragmented images flashed before his eyes: earth-shattering clashes of magical powers, the roars of heroes fighting bloody battles, and countless lives perishing in despair...

"Ah!" Shi Hao suddenly clutched his chest in pain. The Supreme Bone's reaction became increasingly intense, as if it was about to burst out of his body. His face was pale, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

"What's wrong with you?" Shi Yi noticed something was wrong with Shi Hao and hurried forward to support him.

"I... I'm fine..." Shi Hao said while suppressing the pain, "This place... has a strong suppressive effect on my Supreme Bone..."

Shi Yi frowned and looked around, trying to find the source of this oppressive force. Suddenly, his gaze fixed on a towering altar in the center of the battlefield. The altar was dilapidated, but it exuded a terrifying pressure, as if it was the core of the battlefield.

"Let's go and take a look!" Shi Yi made a prompt decision and pulled Shi Hao towards the altar.

The two approached the altar cautiously, the pressure growing with each step. When they finally reached the top of the altar, the ground beneath their feet suddenly shook violently, and an even colder, more sinister aura surged from the center of the altar, as if emanating from the Netherworld...

"Not good!" Shi Yi's face changed drastically, and he suddenly threw Shi Hao to the ground.

The next moment, a dark shadow rose from the center of the altar... The shadow coalesced in mid-air, a towering figure shrouded in a black cloak. His face was hidden in the shadows, only a pair of scarlet eyes radiating a chilling light, a gaze like from the abyss that sent shivers down his spine.

"Who disturbed my sleep?" The Shadow Demon King's voice was low and hoarse, as harsh as the friction of metal, and carried a heart-pounding magic power, echoing over the battlefield.

Shi Yi protected Shi Hao behind him, his pupils surging with fighting spirit. He said in a deep voice, "You're just a remnant soul, yet you dare to speak so arrogantly!"

"Arrogant young man, you're looking for death!" The Shadow Demon King roared, and suddenly waved his hand. A black beam of energy shot towards Shi Yi like lightning.

Shi Yi was well prepared. He dodged the attack with a flash of golden light, and a golden halberd appeared in his hand. He swung the halberd, and golden light swept out like a streak of silk, heading towards the black beam.

boom!

The golden light and the black light collided, causing a deafening roar. A powerful energy wave swept across, causing sand and rocks to fly and the sky to darken.

Seeing this, Shi Hao didn't dare to delay. He held the bone spear in his hand and rushed towards the Shadow Demon King with lightning speed. The bone spear flashed with dazzling golden light, like a scorching sun, illuminating the dark battlefield.

"A mere trifle!" The Shadow Demon King snorted coldly, his figure elusive like a ghost, easily dodging Shi Hao's attack. He stretched out his palm and grabbed Shi Hao. Black mist surged from his palm, transforming into a massive black claw. With a suffocating pressure, it enveloped Shi Hao.

Shi Hao felt a massive force locking him in, as if he were trapped in a quagmire, unable to move. Terrified, he quickly summoned the power of the Supreme Bone, emitting a burst of golden light in an attempt to fend off the demonic claws.

However, the Shadow Demon King's strength far exceeded their expectations, and even with Shi Yi and Shi Hao's combined strength, they gradually fell behind. Shi Yi's golden halberd was repeatedly knocked back, his knuckles aching; Shi Hao was even more forced back by the demon's claws, leaving him with multiple wounds.

"Damn, this guy is too strong!" Shi Hao gritted his teeth, feeling extremely anxious.

At this moment, two figures fell from the sky and landed beside them...

"Don't give up, I'm here to help you!"

Two figures fell like meteors, landing steadily beside Shi Yi and Shi Hao, stirring up a cloud of dust. In a flash, Shi Hao saw who was coming and shouted in surprise, "Elder Feng! Miss Lingyu!"

The arrivals were none other than Elder Feng and Ling Yu, who had arrived exhausted. Elder Feng, with his hair and beard all white, appeared energetic and vigorous. He held a jade staff that shone with a shimmering green light, evidently a rare treasure. Ling Yu, dressed in plain clothing, looked ethereal and ethereal. In his hand, he held a longsword that shone with a faint white light. The blade was slender and exuded a sharp aura.

"Hmph, a mere remnant soul dares to be so rampant!" Elder Feng snorted coldly, and suddenly paused the green jade staff in his hand. A powerful breath of life instantly spread out. The battlefield that was originally shrouded in black mist seemed to be blown by a breeze, which refreshed people's spirits.

Ling Yu said nothing as she flashed, transforming into a streak of white lightning. The longsword in her hand became a trail of afterimages, striking directly at the Shadow Demon King's vital points. Her swordsmanship was light and graceful, yet each move was deadly. The sword's swift and destructive energy sliced through the black mist, creating fine cracks.

With Elder Feng and Ling Yu joining the fray, the tide of battle shifted. Shi Yi and Shi Hao's pressure was suddenly relieved, and they seized the opportunity to unleash their full potential. A golden light shone brightly in Shi Yi's pupils, and he wielded his halberd with impenetrable force. Each swing carried the power of the universe, forcing the Shadow Demon King back repeatedly. Shi Hao seized the opportunity, his figure stalking the edge of the battlefield like a ghost, his bone spear thrust out from time to time like a venomous snake, each strike aimed squarely at the Shadow Demon King's weak spot.

"Damn it! You ant-like creatures, how dare you..." The Shadow Demon King was suppressed by the four people and roared angrily, but there was a hint of panic in his voice that was hard to conceal.

"Evil cannot defeat good! Today is the day you die!" Elder Feng shouted, and the jade staff in his hand shone brightly. Green beams of light shot towards the Shadow Demon King like raindrops.

"Ah!" The Shadow Demon King let out a shrill scream, his form gradually becoming ethereal as if torn by a raging wind. Finally, he transformed into a ball of black mist, tumbling through the air a few times. Unwillingly, he said, "You... you just wait! When I regain my strength, I will tear you to pieces! Remember, I'm waiting for you... in the core of the ruins..."

The black fog dissipated, and the battlefield returned to calm, leaving only devastation.

Although Shi Yi and Shi Hao were both slightly injured, they were not seriously injured. They looked at Elder Feng and Ling Yu with gratitude in their eyes.

"Thank you, Elder Feng, and Miss Lingyu for your help!" Shi Yi said with a fist salute.

"You're welcome. This is our duty as guardians." Ling Yu smiled slightly, but his eyes looked into the distance, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes. "However, judging by the tone of the Shadow Demon King, he seems to have set some trap in the core of the ruins. We must not take it lightly."

Elder Feng also nodded and said in a deep voice: "Yes, this ruins is full of strangeness. We must be more cautious from now on."

After saying this, he looked at Shi Yi and Shi Hao, his eyes becoming serious. "Next, we are heading to the core area of the ruins. It is full of unknown dangers. Are you prepared?"

Shi Yi and Shi Hao looked at each other, their eyes filled with determination, and said in unison: "Ready!"

Elder Feng nodded slightly, turned, and walked deeper into the ruins. Ling Yu followed closely behind, followed by Shi Yi and Shi Hao. The four of them passed through a misty forest and arrived in front of an ancient stone gate... Mysterious runes were carved into the stone gate, exuding an aura of vicissitudes, as if telling of a long history...
