The Lord of Darkness appeared, his immense dark aura spreading through the ruins like ink, oppressing everyone to the point of suffocation. His eyes were like two deep black holes, seemingly capable of swallowing all light, gleaming with a fervent desire for destruction. His figure was tall and majestic, his black robe rustling as the dark power surged, each swing resembling the Grim Reaper's scythe.

Xu Tiancai and the others felt the terrifying pressure from the Lord of Darkness, but there was no sign of retreat in their eyes. The power of the "Holy Mantra of Light" had reached its peak through their efforts, and the golden light shone tenaciously like a newborn sun amidst the darkness.

"Even if you come, we won't let you succeed!" Xu Tiancai roared, his voice echoing through the ruins with an unyielding will. Though his body was at its limit, every inch of his skin aching as if burned by a raging fire, he still tightly grasped the Heart of Light Crystal, channeling his final life force into the "Holy Mantra of Light." Under his guidance, the power of light surged toward the Lord of Darkness like a surging river, their last ray of hope.

Agang's body trembled slightly from the immense pressure, but his axe remained firmly in his grip. The flames on the axe dimmed slightly under the oppressive influence of the Dark Lord's dark aura, but the flames did not die out, instead burning even more tenaciously. "Come, Dark Lord, taste my wrath!" Agang roared, pouring all his strength into the "Holy Mantra of Light" and taking a firm step toward the Dark Lord. The flames on the axe and the light of the "Holy Mantra of Light" resonated with each other, transforming into a blazing attack wave that rushed towards the Dark Lord.

Lin's face was as pale as paper, her magic power drained, but she relied on her deep understanding of the elemental forces and her unwavering faith to maintain the Holy Mantra of Light. Her hands danced swiftly, like a spirit dancing in the darkness, attempting to direct the elemental forces against the Lord of Darkness. At her summons, the wind elemental formed sharp blades of wind, mingled with the light of the Holy Mantra of Light, slicing towards the Lord of Darkness. The fire elemental, like a leaping flame spirit, burned even more fiercely in the light, attempting to break through the Lord of Darkness's defenses. The water elemental transformed into wisps of cool vapor, nourishing the weary bodies and minds, while also infusing the Holy Mantra of Light with a gentle yet resilient strength. The earth elemental gathered beneath the crowd's feet, supporting them like the solid ground, ensuring they remained unshakable despite the Lord of Darkness's oppression.

The mysterious figure's black robe fluttered, his silhouette becoming even more enigmatic amidst the interweaving of darkness and light. He rapidly formed seals with his hands, merging the forces of darkness and light to their ultimate essence. The interwoven black and gold light flickered in his hands, resembling two intertwined dragons, then transformed into complex and mysterious runes, merging into the "Holy Mantra of Light." These runes shimmered in the light like ancient seals, strengthening the "Holy Mantra of Light"'s power to restrain the Lord of Darkness. The mysterious figure's gaze, sharp as a torch, fixed the Lord of Darkness. He knew this was a battle that would determine the fate of the world; there was no room for error.

The Ice Princess waved her wand, and icy power surged from her body, blending perfectly with the "Holy Mantra of Light." She released circles of cold energy, centered around herself. These quickly condensed into a layer of ice, spreading toward the Lord of Darkness. Illuminated by the light of the "Holy Mantra of Light," the ice shimmered with a crystalline radiance, like a giant mirror reflecting the power of light. The Ice Princess chanted the ancient ice spell, each syllable imbued with powerful magic. She poured the power of her soul into the ice, attempting to purify the Lord of Darkness from its dark power with the purity of ice.

The white-clad figure played the flute faster and faster, the sound transforming into materialized rays of light, entwining around the "Holy Mantra of Light" like threads. These rays of light imbued the "Holy Mantra of Light" with his life force, imbuing it with a sacred, inviolable aura. The white-clad figure's face had turned ashen, but his gaze remained resolute. The flute in his hand seemed his final weapon in the battle against darkness. He merged his soul with the flute's sound, injecting the "Holy Mantra of Light" with a final breath of life.

Seeing the crowd's tenacity, the Lord of Darkness let out a sneer of disdain. He stretched out his hands, and the dark energy gathered in his palms, forming two massive black spheres of light. These spheres contained a power capable of annihilating everything; it was the ultimate manifestation of darkness. "You ants, how dare you defy me? Today is your doom!" the Lord of Darkness roared, hurling the two black spheres at the crowd.

Like two falling black meteors, the black spheres slammed into the "Holy Mantra of Light" with destructive force. At the moment of contact, the forces of darkness and light violently collided, and the entire ruins were shaken by the intense energy fluctuations. Light and darkness intertwined and collided, emitting a deafening roar, as if the world had come to an end.

The golden light created by the "Holy Light Mantra" trembled violently under the impact of the black light ball, but it still stubbornly resisted. The golden light was like a resilient shield, continuously weakening the power of the black light ball. However, the power of the Lord of Darkness was too great, and the black light ball continuously released dark pulses, trying to break through the defense of the "Holy Light Mantra".

Each pulse of darkness caused the light of the Holy Light Mantra to fluctuate, and everyone felt an unprecedented pressure. Xu Tiancai felt as if his body was about to be crushed by this force, but he gritted his teeth and persevered, chanting the ancient light mantra in an attempt to stabilize the power of the Holy Light Mantra.

"Everyone, hold on! We can't let the Lord of Darkness break through our defenses!" Xu Tiancai shouted. He poured more of the power of light into the Heart of Light Crystal, attempting to strengthen the defenses of the Holy Light Mantra. The Heart of Light Crystal, energized by his power, shone even brighter. The multicolored light flowed like a stream of warmth, pouring into the Holy Light Mantra. But it was only a drop in the bucket.

Agang's battle axe hummed under the onslaught of darkness, his arm numb from the shock, but he maintained a tight grip on it. "I will not let this darkness consume us!" He roared, pouring his own strength into the battle axe once again. A force interwoven with fire and light surged from the axe, rushing towards the Lord of Darkness, attempting to relieve the pressure of the "Holy Spell of Light."

Lin's elemental magic faltered under the counterattack of the dark forces. The wind element was blown away by the dark forces, the fire element dimmed, the water element's mist gradually dissipated, and the foundation of the earth element began to waver. But she did not give up. She mobilized the last bit of magic power in her body and cast a powerful elemental shield spell, forming a new shield within the "Holy Mantra of Light". "We still have hope, we can't give up!" Lin's voice, though weak, was full of determination.

The mysterious figure's black robe was ripped further by the dark forces, leaving several wounds on his body, but he paid no heed. He continuously shifted hand seals, injecting more dark and light forces into the "Holy Mantra of Light." He knew that if the "Holy Mantra of Light" collapsed, they would all be buried in darkness. The mysterious figure stared intently at the Lord of Darkness, trying to find his weakness.

The Ice Princess's ice shattered under the attack of the dark forces, and her wand cracked. But she struggled to maintain the integrity of the ice. Her body began to tremble, and her magic power was almost exhausted, but her faith in her heart sustained her to continue fighting. "Power of ice and snow, heed my call!" The Ice Princess prayed silently in her heart, exerting her last connection with the Heart of Ice Elemental, trying to repair the ice.

The man in white's flute movements slowed, his notes hoarse, but the power within remained undiminished. He channeled his entire life force into the sound, injecting a final ray of life into the "Holy Mantra of Light." His body shrank like a candle in the wind, but his eyes were filled with a devotion to light. "We must succeed..." the man in white muttered silently.

Under the tenacious resistance of the crowd, the "Holy Mantra of Light", although riddled with holes, still stubbornly resisted the attack of the Lord of Darkness. The Lord of Darkness saw that his attack did not achieve the expected effect, and a trace of anger appeared on his face.

"Do you think you can stop me like this? How naive!" The Lord of Darkness roared. He increased the output of dark power. The volume of the black light ball became larger, and the released dark pulses became more frequent and powerful.

Under the powerful impact of the dark forces, the "Holy Mantra of Light" began to crack, and golden light leaked out from the cracks like blood oozing from a wound. Everyone felt the threat of death, but they did not give up, still firmly maintaining the "Holy Mantra of Light".

Just as the "Holy Mantra of Light" was about to collapse, Xu Tiancai suddenly felt a mysterious force surging from the Heart of Light Crystal. This force was pure and vast, as if it were the power of light from ancient times. He realized that this might be the final power hidden in the Heart of Light Crystal, their last hope.

"Everyone, concentrate your strength and make use of this mysterious power!" Xu Tiancai shouted, and he guided this mysterious power into the "Holy Mantra of Light".

Upon hearing Xu Tiancai's words, everyone merged their strength with this mysterious power, injecting it into the "Holy Mantra of Light." Infused with this new power, the "Holy Mantra of Light" shone brightly, and the original cracks began to gradually heal. Like an awakened giant beast, the golden light launched an even more powerful counterattack against the Lord of Darkness.

The Lord of Darkness sensed the changes in the Holy Mantra of Light, and his expression darkened. "Hmph, even so, you can't defeat me!" He once again increased the output of his dark power, preparing for the final battle with the Holy Mantra of Light.

The Holy Mantra of Light and the power of the Lord of Darkness collided fiercely once again, and the entire ruins trembled under this powerful force. Light and darkness intertwined, forming a vast energy vortex that enveloped everyone and the Lord of Darkness. Within the energy vortex, the forces of light and darkness constantly collided and offset each other, and each collision produced a devastating energy wave.

Xu Tiancai and the others endured immense pressure within the energy vortex, their bodies seemingly torn apart by the force. Yet, they held onto each other's strength, maintaining the stability of the "Holy Mantra of Light." They knew this was their last chance; if they failed, the world would be plunged into eternal darkness.

During the fierce battle, Xu Tiancai discovered that when the Dark Lord released his dark power, a brief energy fluctuation appeared in his chest. He guessed that this might be the core of the Dark Lord's power.

"Attack his chest! That might be his weak spot!" Xu Tiancai shouted loudly. He concentrated the power of light on the sword and stabbed it towards the chest of the Lord of Darkness.

Agang, Lin, the mysterious figure, the Ice Princess, and the man in white responded, redirecting their attacks and unleashing their strongest blows on the Dark Lord's chest. Agang's battle axe ignited in flames as he slashed at the Dark Lord; Lin unleashed her final elemental fusion magic, blending the power of the elements with the power of light to form a powerful attack; the mysterious figure maximized his fusion of the forces of darkness and light, transforming into a ray of light and darkness; the Ice Princess waved her wand, fusing the power of ice with the power of light to form the final ice arrow of light; the man in white played his flute, the sound of the flute transforming into a ray of light that merged with the attacks of the crowd.

The attacks from the crowd were like a brilliant rainbow, flying towards the Dark Lord's chest. The Dark Lord sensed their intentions and tried to block their attacks with the power of darkness, but the power of the "Holy Mantra of Light" restrained him, preventing him from fully defending.

The attacks accurately struck the Dark Lord's chest, and he roared in agony. His body trembled violently under the onslaught, and his dark energy began to sway. But he was the Dark Lord after all, possessing immense power. He quickly regained his composure, his eyes gleaming with an even more ferocious glint.
