The strange light flew towards them like a meteor, at an extremely fast speed. The moment it approached, the light transformed into countless shining threads, enveloping everyone. The threads of light seemed to have life, weaving and entwining around them, bringing a touch of warmth and unknown power.

Xu Tiancai reached out, attempting to touch the threads of light. As his fingertips made contact, a flood of information flooded into his mind. It was a blurry image of ancient ruins, mysterious runes, and some strange creatures he had never seen before. The image finally froze on a mysterious tower radiating a rainbow of light.

"This light seems to be conveying some message to us, as if a new mission is waiting for us." Xu Tiancai said with a frown, his eyes showing both vigilance against the unknown and a hint of excitement.

Agang moved his injured arm, looked at the light and said, "No matter what it is, as long as it threatens world peace, we will not retreat." Although his battle axe was damaged in the battle with the Lord of Darkness, his fighting spirit was still high, and his strong body seemed to contain infinite power.

Lin observed the threads of light carefully. She could sense the elemental power within them, but this power was different from what she was familiar with, more ancient and mysterious. "The power within these threads of light is very strange. It seems to be fused with multiple elements. Perhaps the place we are going to contains magic we have never encountered before." Lin's eyes flickered with the desire to explore. As a magician, this unknown magic held a huge appeal to her.

The mysterious figure gently stroked his tattered black robe, his deep gaze piercing the threads of light, as if seeing beyond. "The power behind this light is not simple. Perhaps a being older than the Lord of Darkness is calling us. We must proceed with caution." His tone was solemn, already mentally formulating strategies for dealing with various unknown situations.

The Ice Princess felt the chill brought by the light, a breath that resonated with her own ice power, yet was even more powerful. "This cold power seems to come from the beginning of the world. Perhaps that mysterious tower hides the ultimate secret of ice power." She clenched her fists, full of anticipation for this new adventure, hoping to further enhance her strength.

The man in white picked up the cracked flute and gently played a note. The sound resonated wonderfully with the light thread. "This is destiny's guidance. Our journey is not over yet. A new movement is about to begin." His words were full of poetry. Although his body was still weak, his spirit was ready to face the challenge.

As the light gradually faded, a shimmering portal appeared before everyone. Its frame was engraved with intricate runes, which shimmered with mysterious light and constantly shifted in shape. Within the portal lay a deep, starry sky, its stars twinkling as if hiding countless secrets.

"Looks like we're going to go through this portal," Xu Tiancai said, heading towards it first. The moment he stepped into the portal, a powerful suction pulled him in. His body seemed to be traveling through a time tunnel, surrounded by colorful lights and whistling air currents.

The others followed, one after another entering the portal. As they journeyed, they each felt different impacts of force. Agang's body was crushed by a powerful pressure, as if countless mountains were bearing down on him, but he persevered with his tenacious physique. Lin felt her magic being pulled by a mysterious force, as if to merge with some unknown element. She struggled to maintain her concentration, trying to understand this change. The mysterious figure shuttled through the intertwined energy flows of darkness and light, constantly adjusting his power balance to adapt to this complex environment. The Ice Princess was surrounded by a freezing cold air current, which sliced ​​through her body like sharp ice blades, but she gritted her teeth and endured it, all the while feeling the ancient ice power contained within. The man in white played the flute, the sound of the flute forming a protective barrier within the chaotic energy, protecting him from harm, while also searching for a rhythm that resonated with the surrounding energy.

After an unknown amount of time, everyone finally emerged from the portal and arrived in a strange world. The sky was a brilliant purple, as if shrouded in a mysterious veil. The ground was composed of a transparent crystal, flowing with colorful light, like the blood of the earth. In the distance, rolling mountains stretched out, and upon them grew enormous luminous plants, their branches swaying gracefully, emitting a soft glow.

"It's so beautiful here, but it's also full of danger." Xu Tiancai looked around vigilantly. The sword and the Heart of Light Crystal in his hands had recovered some power and were emitting a faint light.

Ah Gang picked up a crystal from the ground and examined it carefully. "This crystal is very hard, but it seems to contain some kind of energy. Maybe it can be used as a weapon." He put the crystal in his waist pocket to study it later.

Lin squatted down, touching the crystals on the ground, trying to connect with the energy within. "The elemental power here is very rich, and different from the elemental power in our world, it seems more primitive." She stood up and cast a simple detection spell, trying to understand her surroundings.

The mysterious figure gazed at the distant mountains. He could sense a powerful force emanating from them. "Those glowing plants and mountains might be the guardians of this place. We must proceed with caution," he warned everyone, casting a concealing spell to avoid exposing himself prematurely.

The Ice Princess walked towards a glowing plant and reached out her hand, wanting to feel its warmth. Just as her hand was about to touch the plant, it suddenly emitted a strong light, and the air around it instantly grew colder. Sharp icy spikes emerged from the ground and pierced the Ice Princess. The Ice Princess quickly stepped back, waving her wand. A shield of ice formed in front of her, blocking the attack of the icy spikes.

The man in white played his flute, and the sound transformed into a breeze, blowing away the icy spikes. "It seems the creatures here are very aggressive. We can't touch them easily," he said, his eyes fixed on the surroundings.

At that moment, a deep roar echoed from the direction of the mountains. The sound reverberated through the air like thunder, shaking the crystals on the ground slightly. Everyone looked toward the source of the sound and saw a massive creature slowly emerging from the mountains. This creature was massive, like a winged lion, its body covered in golden scales, each one gleaming with a dazzling light. Its wingspan stretched tens of meters, and the feathers on them blazed like flames, emitting a fiery aura. Its eyes were like two enormous rubies, gleaming with majesty and ferocity.

"What kind of monster is this? It looks difficult to deal with." A Gang gripped his battle axe tightly and got into a fighting stance.

Xu Tiancai infused the power of light into his sword and said, "No matter what it is, we must defeat it before we can move on." His eyes were firm, staring at the huge creature without fear.

Lin began to cast elemental magic. Wind elements gathered around her, forming sharp wind blades; fire elements burned in her hands, ready to attack at any time; water elements turned into a layer of water vapor, surrounding everyone to increase defense; earth elements condensed under their feet, making them stand more firmly.

The mysterious figure quickly formed seals with his hands, and the power of darkness and light converged in his hands, transforming into a lightsaber of black and gold. He flashed and rushed towards the creature, trying to strike first.

The Ice Princess waved her wand, and icy power surged from her body, forming an ice field in front of her. Countless sharp ice spikes stood up on the ice field, extending towards the creature, trying to restrict its movement.

The man in white played the flute faster and faster, and the sound of the flute transformed into huge birds of light. The birds of light flew towards the creature, attacking its eyes and wings with their sharp beaks and claws, trying to disrupt its movements.

The massive creature roared upon seeing the attacks. It opened its bloody maw and spewed forth a stream of golden flames. The flames surged towards them like a raging tide, melting the crystals on the ground into liquid wherever they passed.

Xu Tiancai swung his sword, and a massive, luminous sword energy slashed towards the flames. The sword energy and the flames collided, creating a violent explosion. The powerful impact distorted the surrounding air.

Agang rushed towards the flames, his battle axe ignited with blazing flames, competing with the flames spewed by the creature. The battle axe chopped the flames, splashing golden sparks, and he shuttled through the flames, approaching the creature.

Lin's wind blades sliced ​​through the flames, attempting to clear a path for Agang. Under her control, the fire element entangled with the creature's flames, weakening its power. The water vapor formed by the water element, under the high temperature, formed a protective shield, shielding everyone from the flames. The earth element condensed into boulders and smashed towards the creature, attempting to distract it.

The mysterious figure's lightsaber pierced the flames, stabbing at the creature's legs. The lightsaber collided with the creature's scales, splashing a golden light. Although it didn't pierce the scales, it still caused the creature pain. It swung its massive claws and struck the mysterious figure. The figure flashed and disappeared, reappearing behind the creature.

The Ice Princess's icy spikes began to melt under the creature's fire attack, but she did not give up and continued to increase the output of her ice power. More icy spikes emerged from the ground and stabbed towards the creature's abdomen, trying to find its weakness.

The light birds of the white-clad man flew through the creature's flames, constantly attacking its eyes and wings. Some of the light birds were struck by the flames and disappeared into tiny dots of light, but more continued to fly towards the creature.

With everyone's concerted efforts, the creature's flaming attack gradually weakened. It seemed enraged by their stubbornness and flapped its wings to take flight. It circled in the sky, then swooped down towards them, its massive claws clawing at them.

Xu Tiancai poured more of the power of the Heart of Light Crystal into his sword. He leaped high and lunged at the creature's claws. The sword and claws collided with a loud metallic clang. Xu Tiancai was sent flying backward by the powerful impact, but he steadied himself in mid-air and charged at the creature once more.

Agang swung his battle axe and chopped at the creature's body as it dived down. The battle axe hit the creature's scales, splashing golden sparks. The creature's body shook slightly, but it continued to rush towards them.

Lin cast a powerful elemental fusion spell, combining the power of wind, fire, water, earth, and ice to form a massive, multicolored ball of energy. She flung the ball toward the creature, which continuously absorbed surrounding energy as it flew, growing larger and larger. When the ball made contact with the creature, a violent explosion erupted, sending powerful energy waves radiating outward, sending the creature flying backward.

The mysterious figure, using the spatial ability of his cloak, appeared above the creature. With a wave of his hands, he combined the forces of darkness and light into a massive beam of energy, which he fired towards the creature's back. The beam struck the creature's back, leaving a deep mark on its scales.

The Ice Princess waved her wand, and the power of ice merged with the power of light, forming a vast ice castle of light. The castle flew toward the creature, and countless ice-light arrows shot out from its walls. These arrows rained down on the creature, each imbued with a powerful purifying force. Wherever they struck, black spots appeared on the creature's scales, a sign of the dark forces being purified.

The man in white played the flute, and the sound of the flute turned into a huge light, like a huge lightsaber, stabbing towards the creature's head. The lightsaber pierced the creature's head, and the creature let out a painful roar, and its flight trajectory became disordered.

Under the combined attack, the creature was severely damaged. Its body was covered in wounds, and golden blood flowed from them, dripping onto the crystals on the ground with a sizzling sound. But it still did not give up, charging towards the group once more, its eyes burning with anger.

"It's really tenacious, we can't let up!" Xu Tiancai shouted. He rushed towards the creature again, ready to give it the final blow.

Everyone gathered their strength, gathering their remaining strength and launching a final attack on the creature. Agang's battle axe, Lin's elemental magic, the mysterious figure's light and dark powers, the Ice Princess's ice-bright arrows, the white-clad figure's flute-like light—all of the attacks flew towards the creature like a brilliant rainbow. The creature tried to dodge, but it was too badly injured to avoid the attacks.

The moment the attack impacted the creature, it let out a final roar before collapsing to the ground. Its body gradually dissipated in the light, transforming into tiny specks of golden light that merged into the crystals on the ground.

The men collapsed to the ground exhausted, their strength nearly gone, but they had managed to defeat this formidable foe.

"This world is more dangerous than we imagined." Agang said, breathing heavily.

"But we also gained new power and information from it." Lin said. She could feel that her understanding of elemental power had taken a step forward.

"Yes, this is just the beginning, we still have a long way to go." The mysterious figure looked at the mysterious tower in the distance, with a determined light in his eyes.

As everyone rested and recovered their strength, the surrounding crystals began to emit an even stronger light. The light converged, forming a huge shadow. A vague figure appeared within the shadow, seemingly conveying some message to everyone...
