God Slayer: Make Up for the Past

"I've seen this rune before in ancient books!" Wei Ye Shouren suddenly raised his head, a gleam in his eyes, "It represents 'resonance'!"

"Resonance?" Chu Feng and Pan Yue asked in unison.

"That's right," Wei Yewei explained, "The energy of this protective shield comes from the nest itself. If we can find the energy that resonates with it, we can break this barrier!"

Researcher Xiong dragged his injured leg over and said weakly, "Senior Wei, do you mean... we need to find an energy that is the same as the energy in the evil spirit's lair?"

Wei the Night Watchman nodded. "That's the theory, but this energy is extremely dangerous. If you're not careful, you'll be attacked..."

Everyone fell silent. They looked around. The corpses of the evil spirits they had slain were scattered all over the ground, and the air was filled with a sickening stench. Everyone was exhausted. Chu Feng's arm was deeply lacerated by the evil spirit's claws, and blood had soaked through his sleeve. Pan Yue's face was pale, and his lips were chapped, clearly exhausted. Even the experienced Wei Night Watchman's breathing became heavy, and beads of sweat covered his forehead. Tong Yongshi was even more exhausted. He leaned against a rock, gasping for breath.

"Is... there no other way?" Tong Yongshi's voice was hoarse and weak.

Chu Feng gritted his teeth. He was unwilling to give up like this. Would all their efforts and sacrifices be wasted? He looked up at the protective shield that was gleaming with a faint light, his heart filled with resentment and anger.

Pan Yue walked over to Chu Feng, patted his shoulder, and whispered, "Chu Feng, don't lose heart. We will definitely find a way."

Chu Feng took a deep breath and tried to calm himself. He looked around, trying to find a glimmer of hope. Suddenly, his eyes fell on a giant evil spirit not far away. This evil spirit was huge, emitting powerful energy fluctuations, and was obviously the elite monster in the nest.

"Wait..." Chu Feng suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, "Senior Wei, what if we can harness the energy of evil spirits?"

Wei the Night Watchman was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Chu Feng meant. "You mean... using the evil spirit's attack to break the protective shield?"

"That's right!" Chu Feng said firmly, "The energy of the evil spirit and the energy of the nest are the same. If we can guide the evil spirit's attack and make its energy resonate with the protective shield, perhaps we can break this barrier!"

Although this idea was bold, it was also fraught with risk. If they couldn't control it properly, they would likely be devoured by the attacks of the evil spirits. But now, they had no other choice.

"Okay!" A hint of determination flashed in Wei Shouren's eyes. "Let's do as you say! Pan Yue, you will be responsible for restraining the other evil spirits. Researcher Xiong, you will be responsible for observing the energy fluctuations. Chu Feng, you and I will guide the evil spirits' attacks together!"

"Understood!" everyone responded in unison.

Chu Feng and Wei Shouye exchanged a glance, both eyes filled with determination. They knew this was a gamble, a gamble of life and death.

Chu Feng took a deep breath, gripped the long sword in his hand tightly, and locked his gaze on the huge evil spirit. He slowly raised the long sword, and a cold light flashed on the blade...

"Get ready..." Wei's Night Watchman's low voice echoed in the air.

"Begin!" Wei's Night Watchman gave the order, and Chu Feng rushed out like an arrow. His nimble figure weaved between the attacks of the evil spirits, his long sword slashing out in sharp arcs.

Pan Yue displayed precise control, runes flickering in his hand, firmly confining the incoming evil spirits within a certain range, creating an ideal combat environment for Chu Feng and Wei Shouren. Researcher Xiong, on the other hand, kept a close eye on the energy monitor, reporting on the energy fluctuations: "30%... 50%... 70%... the resonance point is about to appear!"

Wei, the Night Watchman, was experienced. He saw the perfect moment and swung his sword, sending a powerful wave of sword energy hurtling towards the giant evil spirit. The evil spirit roared in pain, and a powerful wave of energy gushed out of its body, charging straight into the protective shield.

"Now is the time!" Chu Feng seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and poured the spiritual power in his body into the long sword. The blade emitted a dazzling golden light. He leaped up and slashed the protective shield with the sword that condensed all his strength.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, the golden blade light collided with the energy fluctuations of the evil spirit, producing a violent resonance. The protective shield trembled violently, making a sharp buzzing sound, and finally, under the gaze of everyone, it shattered!

A suffocating, evil aura gushed out from the core of the lair, sending a wave of fear through everyone. Success! They'd broken through the protective shield! Before joy could fully bloom on their faces, an even more powerful force erupted from the core.

The core, like a black heart, beat frantically, the surrounding space began to distort, and the ground began to crack. A destructive force was brewing, more powerful than any previous attack by the evil spirit.

"Oh no! The core is about to explode!" Researcher Xiong shouted in horror.

Wei the Night Watchman's expression also grew serious. "It wants to die with us!"

Chu Feng looked at the core before him, which was about to explode, and a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart. He knew that if the core exploded, all of them would be buried there, and the world would face an even greater disaster.

"We must not let it succeed!" A trace of determination flashed in Chu Feng's eyes. He tightly gripped the long sword in his hand, and a strong fighting spirit burst out from him.

Pan Yue also stood beside Chu Feng, his eyes determined: "Let's go together!"

Although the young warrior was exhausted, he gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up. The weapon in his hand hummed, as if responding to his determination.

Wei Shouren took a deep breath, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, for this world, fight!"

Although Researcher Xiong was not able to fight, he took out all his instruments and prepared to record this final moment in order to leave valuable information for future generations.

The destructive power emanating from the core is getting stronger and stronger. The surrounding space has begun to collapse, and the cracks on the ground are getting bigger and bigger.

Chu Feng took a deep breath, raised the long knife in his hand, pointed the blade directly at the beating black heart, and said in a deep voice: "Come on!"

Wei the Night Watchman followed closely behind, the long sword in his hand emitting dazzling light, and a powerful sword intent soared into the sky.

Pan Yue's runes danced in the air, forming protective barriers to resist the destructive power emanating from the core.

The young warrior also roared and rushed towards the core...

"boom--"

"Boom!" The shockwave from the explosion slammed into everyone like a raging beast. Pan Yue's rune barrier shattered instantly, and he groaned as he was sent flying, landing heavily on the ground. Tong Yongshi was even thrown directly over, unconscious.

"Pan Yue!" Chu Feng shouted anxiously, but he himself was struggling to stand. The power of the core explosion far exceeded their imagination. Even with Wei's Night Watchmen blocking him, he still felt as if his internal organs were being churned.

Wei the Night Watchman groaned, a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, but he still stood firm, the long sword in his hand still emitting a dazzling light, like a towering mountain, guarding the people behind him.

"Don't worry about me, go destroy the core!" Wei the Night Watchman roared, with a hint of determination in his voice.

Chu Feng gritted his teeth. He knew that now was not the time to be sad. They had to complete the mission to be worthy of Senior Wei’s sacrifice.

He endured the severe pain in his body and stood up again. The long sword in his hand hummed, as if responding to his determination. He took a deep breath, a glint of determination flashed in his eyes, and rushed towards the core.

Although the core has begun to self-destruct, it has not yet completely exploded. It is like a beating black heart, emitting a suffocating evil breath.

Chu Feng knew that this was their last chance.

He poured all the remaining spiritual power in his body into the long sword, and the blade emitted a dazzling light. He leaped up and slashed the sword with all his strength towards the core.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the golden blade light collided with the black core, causing a violent explosion.

Chu Feng was blown away again by the shock wave of the explosion, but he smiled.

Because he saw that the beating black heart finally stopped beating.

"We succeeded!" Pan Yue struggled to stand up with a relieved smile on his face.

Although Wei the Night's Watchman was seriously injured, he was relieved. He knew that they had completed their mission and saved the world.

Researcher Xiong recorded all of this excitedly. He knew that this would be a historic moment.

"Hurry up! This place is going to collapse!" Wei the night watchman reminded.

Everyone did not dare to delay and supported each other as they walked towards the exit.

Just as they were about to reach the exit, the surrounding passages began to flicker with strange lights...
