The genius who counterattacked the mainland

Xu Tiancai gripped the Sword of Creation tightly, the blade trembling slightly, as if responding to the even more terrifying roar emanating from the depths of the black vortex. His gaze was fixed on the swirling darkness, beads of sweat covering his forehead. He had just experienced a fierce battle, and although his physical strength was nearing its limit, the determination in his eyes remained undimmed.

The Ice Princess's face was as pale as paper, her wand trembling slightly in her hand, but she persevered, casting layer after layer of ice barriers around her, attempting to ward off the next wave of attacks from the dark vortex. Each barrier shimmered with a faint blue light, like a fragile yet tenacious shield.

Agang gritted his teeth, the flame on his axe dimming, but he still heaved it across his shoulder and stood before the crowd like an impassable golden fortress. His massive frame leaned forward slightly, ready to meet the unknown challenge, his muscles tense like a cheetah poised for a pounce.

Lin half-knelt weakly on the ground, her hands supporting her. The air around her rippled slightly with her remaining wind elemental power. She gasped for breath, and wind elements swirl around her in disorder, like a flock of frightened birds. Her eyes were filled with fatigue and worry as she gazed at the black vortex, as if she saw the end of the world in that endless darkness.

The mysterious figure formed hand seals, the forces of darkness and light looming in his palms. His brow furrowed, his expression as solemn as the dark sky. He tried to find a clue from the dark vortex, but the profound dark power was like an impenetrable wall, completely blocking his perception.

The white-robed man's lips were chapped, and a few tiny cracks appeared on the flute, but he still held the flute to his lips and played a series of unmelodious but powerful notes. Those notes transformed into runes emitting faint light, swirling around the crowd, trying to strengthen their defenses.

As the roar grew louder, the black vortex began to spin violently, accelerating faster and faster, distorting the surrounding space beyond recognition. Black lightning flashed through the vortex like a demon's whip, each flash accompanied by a terrifying scream.

Suddenly, a gigantic eye slowly emerged from the center of the vortex. It was like a black abyss, devoid of white, only endless darkness. Its pupils flickered with an eerie red light, like flames from the depths of hell. The moment it appeared, a powerful pressure washed over everyone like a tidal wave. They felt as if a mountain was bearing down on them, their breathing becoming strained and their legs trembling uncontrollably.

"What the hell is this monster?" Ah Gang uttered these words with difficulty, a hint of fear in his voice. He tried to steady himself, but the pressure caused his feet to leave two deep marks on the ground.

Lin tried to cast wind magic to resist, but she found her own magic power frozen under the pressure, unable to be mobilized. Her eyes were filled with despair, and as she stared into that giant eye, she felt like an ant facing a dragon.

The Ice Princess muttered to herself, constantly strengthening the ice barrier. Under the heavy pressure, the barrier creaked, like a wooden board buckling under the weight. A look of pain crossed her face, and veins bulged on her forehead as she strained to maintain the barrier.

The mysterious figure's hands rapidly changed hand seals, and the power of darkness and light formed a rotating shield around him. However, the shield continued to shrink under the pressure of the eye, and his body was pressed lower and lower, his knees almost touching the ground.

The man in white's flute movements became increasingly difficult, and the notes became intermittent. The runes began to flicker under the pressure, and some even dissipated into the air. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but he still did not give up and played desperately.

Xu Tiancai gritted his teeth, pouring his soul power into the Sword of Creation. The Sword's rainbow light flickered with difficulty in the darkness, like a candle in a gust of wind. He tried to use the sword's power to resist the pressure, but every step forward required immense effort, as if countless invisible hands were pulling him back.

Just as everyone was about to be completely overwhelmed by this overwhelming pressure, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the sky. Like the sun descending to earth, it was dazzling and instantly dispelled the surrounding darkness. A figure faintly emerged from the light. It was tall and majestic, with a pair of enormous wings behind it. The feathers on these wings seemed composed of pure light, each one emitting a sacred aura.

"It's the God of Light!" the mysterious figure shouted in surprise, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

The God of Light slowly descended, each step treading on light, as if strolling through the clouds. He extended a hand and gently waved it, and the pressure emanating from the eyes within the black vortex melted away like ice and snow. Everyone felt a burden lift from their shoulders, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"You have done well, but this battle is far from over." The God of Light's voice resonated like a mighty bell, echoing in everyone's ears. His gaze fell on the black vortex, revealing a hint of solemnity.

Xu Tiancai raised his head and looked at the God of Light, his eyes full of respect. "God of Light, how should we deal with this monster?"

The God of Light frowned slightly and said, "This is the guardian of the Dark Abyss. It possesses the power to destroy heaven and earth. We must find the core that connects it to this world before we can completely destroy it."

After hearing the words of the God of Light, everyone cheered up. They knew that with the help of the God of Light, they might still have a chance of survival.

The God of Light raised his hands high and chanted an ancient incantation. Rays of light emanated from his palms, converging upon the crowd. They felt a warm and powerful force surge into their bodies, rapidly recovering both their physical strength and their magical powers.

"Follow me, we can't let it have the chance to wreak havoc on the world." After the God of Light said this, he flew towards the black vortex.

Xu Tiancai gripped the Sword of Creation tightly and followed. The others followed suit, their eyes rekindled with fighting spirit.

As everyone approached the black vortex, the giant eye became even more furious. It let out an earth-shattering roar, and black lightning rained down on everyone.

The God of Light waved his scepter, and a massive wall of light appeared before everyone. Black lightning struck the wall, sending up black sparks, but the wall remained motionless.

"We must find the core as soon as possible!" shouted the God of Light.

Xu Tiancai used his soul power to try to sense the energy flow in the dark vortex. He discovered that at the bottom of the vortex there was an extremely powerful energy convergence point, where the dark power was the most concentrated, as if all the darkness was flowing from there.

"Down there!" Xu Tiancai shouted, pointing at the bottom of the whirlpool.

The God of Light nodded and led everyone towards the bottom of the vortex. The dark power in the black vortex was like a surging tide, constantly impacting everyone, but under the protection of the God of Light, everyone struggled to move towards their goal.

As they approached the energy convergence point, they discovered a massive, beating black heart. Surrounding the heart were countless black runes, which shimmered with an eerie light, synchronizing with the heart's beat. With each beat, a powerful dark force emanated.

"This is its core!" said the God of Light.

Everyone prepared to attack, but at this moment, the black heart suddenly released a powerful suction force, pulling everyone towards it. Everyone struggled to resist, but was gradually pulled closer.

A Gang swung his battle axe and chopped in the direction of the suction, trying to cut off the force. But the axe chopped in the darkness, like chopping on cotton, without any effect.

Lin summoned the Wind Phoenix, and ordered it to use the powerful force of wind to attack the suction. The Wind Phoenix spread its wings and flew towards the source of the suction, but when it approached the heart, it was instantly swallowed by the dark force.

The Ice Princess waved her wand, and countless huge ice cones shot towards the heart. As they approached the heart, the runes unleashed a force that shattered the ice cones, turning them into pieces of ice.

The mysterious figure formed seals with his hands, and the power of darkness and light formed a huge energy ball in his palms. He threw the energy ball towards the heart, but the energy ball was sucked into the heart as it approached, disappearing without a trace.

The man in white played the flute, and the sound transformed into giant beasts of light. The beasts rushed toward the heart, but as they neared it, they were trapped by the runes surrounding it. Then, they were eroded by the power of darkness, and their light gradually dimmed.

Xu Tiancai raised the Sword of Creation high, unleashing his soul force to its fullest potential. The Sword's multicolored light shone brilliantly as he thrust it towards the heart. As the sword neared the heart, the multicolored light collided with the dark forces, unleashing a powerful wave of energy. Xu Tiancai felt a massive recoil, sending his body flying backwards.

The God of Light watched all this with a frown on his face. He knew that ordinary attacks could not destroy this core, and he had to find a special method.

"We need to combine all our strengths to form a force that transcends darkness," said the God of Light.

After hearing the words of the God of Light, everyone gathered together. They gathered their power into the scepter held by the God of Light. Xu Tiancai's soul power, Agang's fighting spirit, Lin's wind elemental power, the Ice Princess's ice magic, the mysterious figure's dark and light powers, and the white-clothed man's flute power—all of these powers converged on the scepter, forming a colorful light.

The God of Light raised his scepter high and charged towards the black heart. When the scepter touched the heart, a fierce battle ensued between the forces of light and darkness. The runes surrounding the dark heart began to flicker, as if struggling.

"Everyone, work together!" shouted the God of Light.

Everyone gritted their teeth and poured all their remaining strength into the scepter. The light grew stronger and stronger, gradually suppressing the dark forces. The black heart began to tremble violently, and cracks appeared on it.

With a resounding bang, the black heart exploded. A powerful energy shockwave swept in all directions. The God of Light spread his wings, shielding everyone behind him and blocking most of the energy impact.

The black vortex began to dissipate, and the giant eye also disappeared into the darkness. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as they had successfully prevented a disaster.

However, the God of Light's expression remained solemn. "This is just a test from the Dark Abyss. Even more powerful enemies will emerge in the future. We must be prepared."

After hearing the words of the God of Light, everyone knew that their mission was far from over. They looked up at the sky, their eyes filled with firm faith, ready to face the challenges ahead.

In the days that followed, Xu Tiancai and the others began diligent training under the guidance of the God of Light. Xu Tiancai communicated daily with the Sword of Creation, attempting to further tap into its power. On the mountaintop, facing the rising sun, he wielded the Sword of Creation. The sword's light intertwined with the sunlight, forming brilliant curtains of light. With each swing, he could feel the integration of his soul power with the sword grow stronger, as if the sword had become a part of his body.

Ah Gang trained in the valley. He plunged his battle axe into the earth, and a blazing fire ignited around him. He tempered his body and his fighting spirit within the blaze. The golden fighting spirit burned like flames, enveloping his body. With each blast of fire, his fighting spirit grew more refined.

Lin danced with the wind in the forest, closing her eyes and feeling the wind's flow. Her body drifted lightly with the breeze, and the leaves around her were swept up by the wind, surrounding her. She cast wind magic, forming the wind into various shapes, constantly honing her control over the wind.

The Ice Princess retreats to her ice palace, seated on an ice throne, surrounded by giant ice sculptures. By chanting ice spells, she imbues the sculptures with her own magical power, bringing them to life. From the sculptures, she grasps the true meaning of ice magic, elevating her own to a new level.
