Taking advantage of the perfect opportunity when the evil creatures in the valley were disturbing the black-robed man, Lin Yun shouted: "Everyone follow me, charge!" After that, he took the lead and rushed towards the weak point of the black-robed man's encirclement. He waved the spirit staff in his hand, and the spiritual power rushed out, turning into sharp spiritual blades, slashing towards the black-robed man in front, opening a path for everyone.

Su Yao followed closely behind, her rhythmic flute playing ever more rapidly. The purifying spiritual blades transformed from the music grew in power, piercing the black-robed figures on either side who were attempting to encircle them. Their attacks were momentarily disrupted, their rhythm disrupted, and their pace slowed. Chen Yu, on the other hand, remained concealed, weaving through the black-robed crowd. He seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack with his spiritual short sword, targeting those who were too engulfed in blood to pay attention to their backs, momentarily throwing them into disarray. Zhao Gang, holding a shield, stood behind the group, shielding them from any possible attack from behind, ensuring their safety.

Everyone worked together, like a sharp blade, piercing the black-robed men's encirclement and rapidly approaching the suspicious building. Although the black-robed men wanted to stop them, they were unable to protect themselves at the moment and could only watch as Lin Yun and others gradually broke through the encirclement. The black-robed leader was so angry that he roared repeatedly, but he could not do anything to the others for the time being.

After a difficult breakout, Lin Yun and the others finally reached the gate of the suspicious building. However, before they could recover, the demonic stone statues surrounding the building suddenly stirred. The red light in their eyes grew brighter, and black flames spewed from their mouths, sweeping towards the group. At the same time, the evil runes on the gate also flickered, releasing black spiritual chains that coiled around the group like spirit snakes, as if to bind them there.

"Be careful, there's a new trap!" Lin Yun shouted, and everyone hurriedly cast their spiritual shields again to resist the attacks of flames and chains. The black flames were extremely hot, and even through the shield, everyone could feel the scorching heat. The shield's light flickered and distorted under the flames. The spiritual chains collided with the shield, making a series of clanging sounds. With each impact, the chains tightened, trying to break through the shield and bind everyone. The situation became critical again.

"We can't just sit there and wait for death. Concentrate our forces on attacking the source of the chains and sever them first!" Lin Yun commanded the group while maintaining his shield. Upon hearing this, everyone gathered their spiritual energy and blasted it towards the point on the gate where the spiritual chains were surging. In an instant, brilliant spiritual light intertwined and converged, forming a thick pillar of spiritual light that crashed fiercely into the gate.

With a roar, the spiritual chains began to loosen under the powerful attack, and their light dimmed slightly. The crowd pressed on, launching several consecutive attacks, finally severing the spiritual chains completely. They dissipated into tiny specks of black light in the air. The black flames spewed from the demonic stone statue gradually died down under the combined resistance of the crowd.

Seeing the danger temporarily averted, Lin Yun hurried forward, carefully examining the rune-shaped restrictions on the gate, trying to find a way to open it. After some research, he discovered that these runes bore similarities to certain ancient restrictions he had previously encountered in the ruins of Spirit Island. An idea immediately came to his mind. Following the method he remembered for breaking similar restrictions, he carefully injected his spiritual power into the specific runes, muttering a mantra to guide the spiritual power flow through them.

As Lin Yun operated, the runes on the door kept flashing. After a dull sound, the door slowly opened, and a stronger evil aura rushed out from inside the door, as if announcing to everyone that there were endless dangers lurking inside. However, they had no intention of retreating. They held the magic weapon tightly and stepped into the door resolutely.

Upon entering the building, one was greeted by a long, dimly lit passage, flanked by flickering oil lamps emitting a faint green glow. The light cast a shadowy, eerie gloom on the surroundings. The walls were covered in strange portraits, each depicting a hideous figure or monster, their faces grim and horrifying, as if gazing down upon them. This made one feel uneasy.

The ground was engraved with complex array patterns, with black liquid flowing in the patterns, emitting a pungent smell. From time to time, wisps of black mist would rise from the patterns and spread in the passage, interfering with everyone's vision and spiritual perception.

"Everyone, be careful with your steps and don't get separated. This place must be full of traps." Lin Yun reminded everyone in a low voice. Everyone walked slowly and carefully along the passage, always alert to possible dangers around them.

They hadn't walked far when Chen Yu, walking in the front, suddenly felt his feet sink. He thought to himself, "Oh no!" and quickly leaped back, shouting, "There's a trap!" Before he could finish his words, huge black holes suddenly appeared on the flat ground. Countless sharp black bone spurs emerged from the holes and stabbed at the group. Simultaneously, a dense rain of black spiritual arrows rained down from the ceiling of the passage. The arrowheads flashed with an eerie light, and it was obvious that they contained a deadly poison. If they were hit, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Hurry, put up your shields! Get to the side!" Lin Yun shouted, and everyone quickly cast their spiritual power shields, blocking the attacks of bone spikes and arrows while moving towards the edge of the passage, trying to avoid this fierce attack. But the bone spikes and arrows seemed endless, constantly attacking from all directions. Everyone's shields were crumbling under the continuous attack, and they suffered more or less scratches on their bodies. The situation became extremely critical.

At this critical moment, Su Yao discovered that although the bone spurs extending from the black hole in the ground attacked fiercely, their appearance seemed to have a certain pattern. Every time, they would collectively retract into the black hole after a period of time, and then stab out again.

"Everyone, pay attention. These bone spurs have gaps in their attack. When they retract, we will take the opportunity to rush over. Maybe we can avoid this trap area!" Su Yao shouted loudly. When everyone heard it, their eyes lit up and they quickly concentrated, waiting for the opportunity for the bone spurs to retract.

Finally, as Su Yao had predicted, the bone spurs collectively retreated into the black hole. Everyone seized this brief opportunity, cast their flying magic weapons, and quickly rushed forward. Just as they had just flown over the trap area, the bone spurs and the rain of arrows attacked again. Everyone broke out in a cold sweat, feeling lucky to have escaped. However, they also knew that the dangers in this building must be more than just this, and they must remain vigilant at all times.

Continuing deeper into the passage, they arrived at a spacious hall. In the center of the hall stood a massive stone platform, upon which rested a book emitting an evil aura. A black vortex of spiritual energy surrounded the book, and within it, faint images of struggling souls could be seen, as if imprisoned and wailing silently.

Several huge crystal pillars stood around the stone platform, and various rare spiritual objects were sealed inside the crystal pillars. However, those spiritual objects were eroded by evil forces and emitted distorted light. It was obvious that they were being used by this mysterious evil force as key materials for some evil plan.

"This scroll looks evil and must be the core of the evil forces' conspiracy. It might be the key thing they use to enhance their strength and rule the world of immortal cultivation. We have to find a way to destroy it!" Lin Yun said with a frown. Everyone also realized the danger of this scroll, but looking at the powerful spiritual power vortex around it, it would be more difficult to approach and destroy it. Everyone fell into deep thought, thinking about how to deal with it.

Just as everyone was about to approach the stone platform, a group of puppets emitting a powerful evil aura emerged from all corners of the hall. These puppets were tall and made entirely of black metal, with red spiritual light flashing at their joints. They held various evil weapons in their hands and slowly walked towards the crowd. With every step they took, the ground trembled slightly, and a powerful sense of oppression came over them.

"It seems that these puppets are guarding the scroll. We have to get rid of them first." Lin Yun said, and took the lead in attacking the puppets. He waved his magic wand and cast a spiritual spell that integrated the power of "Hunyuan Lingfa". A ray of light containing spiritual power of multiple attributes shot towards the puppet and hit the puppet, splashing a burst of black spiritual sparks. The puppet just paused slightly, and then continued to rush towards the crowd, and its offensive momentum did not decrease at all.

Seeing this, the others also launched their strongest counterattacks. Su Yao played the Lingxi Jade Flute, and the music transformed into spiritual blades that slashed at the puppets' joints, attempting to disrupt their movement. Chen Yu concealed his form, circled behind the puppets, and attacked their vital points with his spiritual dagger. Zhao Gang, holding up his shield, rushed forward, engaging the puppets in close combat, attempting to stop them. In an instant, everyone and the puppets were caught in a fierce melee, the sounds of battle echoing throughout the hall, and the situation was extremely stalemate.

During the fierce battle, Lin Yun discovered that although these puppets seemed indestructible, their spiritual power supply seemed to rely mainly on a black spiritual power core in the chest. Every time they launched an attack, the spiritual power flowed from the core to their limbs.

"Everyone, pay attention. The puppet's weakness is at the spiritual power core in its chest. Concentrate your strength and attack there!" Lin Yun shouted. Upon hearing this, everyone immediately adjusted their attack strategy, gathered their spiritual power, and launched a fierce attack on the puppet's chest.

Suddenly, various spiritual energies intertwined, transforming into powerful beams that slammed fiercely into the puppets' chests. The spiritual cores in the puppets' chests were impacted, causing their energies to flicker and their movements to slow. Some puppets even stopped moving altogether, collapsing to the ground with a thud, turning into a pile of scrap metal.

Seeing that this method was effective, everyone took advantage of the situation and continued to attack the weaknesses of the remaining puppets. With everyone's concerted efforts, all the puppets were knocked to the ground and lost their combat effectiveness. Everyone successfully removed this obstacle, but the scroll on the stone platform still exuded a dangerous aura, waiting for everyone to face it. How should they destroy this evil scroll next?

After dealing with the puppet, everyone cautiously approached the stone platform. With each step, they could feel the evil power emanating from the scroll growing stronger, as if resisting their approach. When they reached the edge of the stone platform and examined the scroll closely, they discovered a few large, twisted characters written on it: "The Evil Book of World Destruction." Just looking at the title sent a chill through everyone's heart.

Just as everyone was about to destroy the scroll, the scroll suddenly burst out with a strong black light, which instantly enveloped the entire hall. Everyone's eyes were filled with darkness and they could not see anything. Then, a sinister laugh echoed in the hall, as if some terrifying existence had been awakened. A new crisis had arrived, and everyone's heart instantly rose to their throat. They didn't know what kind of terrifying existence they would face next, so they could only be on high alert and prepare to meet the unknown challenge.
