God Slayer: Make Up for the Past

The thick darkness was like a giant beast, swallowing up all light and everyone's voice. Chu Feng's heart was pounding. He gripped his Tang sword tightly, the rough texture of the handle giving him some peace of mind. He could sense the danger lurking in the darkness, like a dormant venomous snake, spitting out its cold tongue.

"Pan Yue!" Chu Feng called out again, but still no response. Only the sticky darkness and suffocating silence answered him. He gritted his teeth, trying to remain calm. He knew that panic would only lead them to destruction faster.

"Ahem..." A faint cough came from not far away. Chu Feng was delighted and immediately groped over to the sound. "Pan Yue, is that you?"

"It's me..." Pan Yue's voice was weak, "I... I'm fine..."

Chu Feng finally reached Pan Yue and discovered a deep wound on his shoulder, bleeding profusely. "Damn evil spirit!" Chu Feng cursed, tearing off a corner of his clothes and bandaging Pan Yue's wound.

"Captain Zhang, Lin Yao, how are you?" Chu Feng asked loudly.

"I'm fine." Lin Yao's voice came from the darkness, with a hint of trembling.

"I can still hold on." Captain Zhang's voice was low and powerful, but Chu Feng could hear the fatigue in his tone.

In the darkness, Wang Xieling's attacks became even more bizarre and unpredictable. They couldn't see it, only hear its creeping, eerie growls and the sound of its claws slicing through the air. Each attack felt like a sword hanging overhead, poised to strike and take their lives.

Suddenly, Chu Feng felt a strong wind coming. He instinctively dodged sideways, but was still hit in the arm. A sharp pain came, and he knew he was injured again.

"Chu Feng!" Pan Yue exclaimed.

"I'm fine!" Chu Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Everyone be careful, it's even more dangerous in the dark!"

He endured the pain and brandished his Tang sword, trying to drive back the evil spirits hiding in the darkness. He knew that they could not sit and wait for death, but had to take the initiative to attack in order to find a glimmer of hope.

"We can't just passively take a beating like this!" Chu Feng panted, "We must find its weakness!"

"But... in such darkness, we can't see it at all..." Lin Yao's voice was full of despair.

At this moment, Chu Feng suddenly noticed that in the thick darkness, there were some faint lights flickering, like distant stars in the night sky.

"Look!" Chu Feng pointed at the lights and said, "What is that?"

"Light...?" Pan Yue's voice was filled with doubt, "How can there be light in this darkness..." He squinted his eyes, trying hard to see the flickering lights, and an uneasy premonition spread in his heart.

Lin Yao and Captain Zhang also noticed these unusual lights. They stopped waving their weapons meaninglessly, held their breath, and tried to capture more information in the darkness.

"These lights... seem to be emanating from evil spirits..." Pan Yue carefully observed the flickering frequency and location of the lights, and suddenly realized a shocking fact. "These lights... are a manifestation of the power of evil spirits!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark shadow flashed by, accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and a sharp claw scraped past Chu Feng's ear, leaving a bloody mark. If it weren't for Pan Yue's warning, Chu Feng might have died here.

"You mean... as long as we destroy the source of these rays, we can weaken the power of the evil spirits?" Chu Feng immediately understood what Pan Yue meant, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes.

"That's the theory..." Pan Yue said with a hint of uncertainty, "But we can't even see the evil spirit's true form, let alone find the source of these rays..."

Captain Zhang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "No, we still have a chance. Although these lights are weak, they are like guiding lights for evil spirits. As long as we follow these lights, we can find its hiding place!"

Lin Yao also cheered up: "That's right! We can't give up! Even if it costs our lives, we must destroy this evil guy!"

The four of them encouraged each other and carefully groped their way forward towards the flickering light. In the darkness, every step was fraught with danger. They didn't know what they would encounter in the next second. They could only rely on the faint light and trust in each other, struggling to move forward on the brink of death.

Chu Feng walked in front, his Tang sword tightly gripped, his eyes fixed on the flickering lights. He discovered that the lights were not flickering randomly, but rather had a certain pattern. They seemed to be connected to something, pointing to a specific location.

As they continued to go deeper, the light became denser and brighter. Chu Feng felt his heartbeat getting faster and faster. He had a premonition that they were not far from the hiding place of the evil spirit.

Suddenly, he stopped.

Not far ahead, a massive black vortex appeared in their field of vision. At its center, a dazzling light shone, beating rhythmically like a gigantic heart. The faint rays of light emanated from this vortex.

"Found it..." Chu Feng's voice was low and hoarse. He clenched the Tang sword in his hand, his eyes firm.

Pan Yue walked up to him and whispered, "Be careful, Chu Feng. I feel... it's very dangerous there..."

Chu Feng didn't say anything, just nodded, then took a deep breath and walked towards the vortex emitting evil light... His figure was gradually swallowed by the darkness...

"Chu Feng..." Chu Feng stepped closer to the black vortex. The surrounding light seemed to be sucked away by it, thickening the darkness. The light at the center of the vortex grew increasingly dazzling, like the eye of a behemoth lurking in the abyss, emitting a chilling chill. Pan Yue, Lin Yao, and Captain Zhang followed closely behind, their expressions solemn.

"Chu Feng, be careful!" Lin Yao couldn't help but remind him.

Chu Feng didn't respond, his entire attention focused on the vortex before him. He felt a powerful suction trying to pull him in, but he resisted firmly, the Tang sword in his hand humming softly, as if it was eager to fight.

Finally, Chu Feng arrived at the edge of the vortex. He took a deep breath, jumped, and jumped into the vortex.

The expected feeling of weightlessness did not appear, and Chu Feng landed steadily on a black platform. In the center of the platform, a huge black crystal was emitting a dazzling light. It was the source of the light they had seen before.

"That's it!" Chu Feng was delighted. He knew that as long as he destroyed this crystal, he could weaken the power of the evil spirit.

However, just as he was about to strike, a powerful force knocked him away. Chu Feng fell heavily to the ground, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

"Chu Feng!" Pan Yue and the other two rushed up immediately upon seeing this.

I saw a huge black figure slowly emerging from the vortex. Its body was composed of countless black lights, and its specific appearance could not be seen clearly. Only its scarlet eyes were flashing a terrifying light in the darkness.

"Damn it, it's Wang Xieling!" Captain Zhang's face changed.

Wang Xieling let out a sharp roar, and a black light shot towards Chu Feng and the others like a sharp arrow. Chu Feng and the others quickly dodged and launched a counterattack.

Chu Feng struggled to stand up, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes burning with a raging fire of war. He remembered the night watch skill he had learned before, "Evil-Breaking Light", which was an attack skill specifically targeting evil spirits. It could transform one's own spiritual power into pure light, causing great damage to evil spirits.

"Now!" Chu Feng whispered in his heart, holding the Tang sword with both hands and pouring all the spiritual power in his body into it. The Tang sword suddenly shone brightly, like a dazzling lightning, cutting through the darkness and piercing the black crystal.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the black crystal shattered instantly, and the dazzling light disappeared. Wang Xieling let out a shrill scream, and its body began to become illusory, and its strength was greatly weakened.

"Good opportunity!" Pan Yue immediately launched an attack upon seeing this, and ice blades shot towards Wang Xieling like a rainstorm.

Lin Yao and Captain Zhang followed closely behind, and all kinds of attacks poured down like a storm.

Chu Feng gathered his strength once again, poured all the remaining spiritual power into the Tang sword, and delivered the final blow.

"Destroy evil!"

A brilliant blade of light pierced the darkness, striking Wang Xieling squarely in the chest. With one final, unwilling roar, Wang Xieling's body completely disintegrated, transforming into countless black points of light that vanished into the air.

As Wang Xieling disappeared, the surrounding darkness gradually dissipated and the space returned to normal.

However, just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they suddenly discovered that some strange symbols appeared on the ground around them, emitting a weird aura.

"What is this..." Pan Yue squatted down and carefully observed the symbols with a frown.

Chu Feng also felt a little uneasy. These symbols gave him a very bad premonition.

"Perhaps... this is just the beginning..." Captain Zhang's voice was low and solemn. His eyes fell on those symbols, and his eyes were full of vigilance...
