Star Journey: Destiny Returns

After obtaining the shining gem, Yunxuan and Yaoyue's hearts were like ignited flames, and their enthusiasm was surging. However, the fog that followed still surrounded them, as if warning them of the upcoming unknown.

"How powerful is this gem?" Yao Yue held the gem, a look of worry in her eyes. "Can we control it?"

"As long as we have faith in our hearts, we will be able to control this power." Yun Xuan responded with a smile, his eyes determined. Just as they were about to continue going deeper into the forest, the atmosphere around them suddenly changed.

A low roar came from the thick fog, as if warning them. Yun Xuan's heart tightened: "Be careful, there are enemies approaching!"

As the words fell, several figures vaguely emerged from the fog. The black-clad explorers appeared again, all with fierce eyes and weapons in their hands, approaching directly.

"I didn't expect you to succeed." The leading black-clad figure sneered, his sinister expression exuding a sense of oppression. "But this journey ends here. You will never be able to obtain the source of the ultimate flavor!"

"We won't give up easily!" Yaoyue clenched the gem in her hand, secretly encouraging herself. Yunxuan had already drawn his sword, the blade flashing, ready to fight.

"Come on, show me your strength!" The leader of the men in black roared and took the lead in attacking. The long sword in his hand created a gust of wind and rushed straight towards Yunxuan.

"Yunxuan, be careful!" Yaoyue exclaimed, feeling extremely nervous, but Yunxuan was not afraid at all and walked forward.

"Wind Blade Slash!" Yun Xuan shouted softly, and the tip of his sword flashed with a blue light, heading straight for the man in black. The sword light drew a graceful arc, striking the man's blade directly.

"Hmph, just a little trick!" The man in black snorted coldly, swung his long sword sideways, and actually blocked Yunxuan's sword light.

The battle started instantly. Yunxuan fought with the leader of the men in black in a battle of wits and courage. Yaoyue did not dare to be careless and quickly cast a spell to try to provide support from the side.

"Frost spell!" Yao Yue chanted in a low voice, and the magical energy in her hands gathered in the air and gushed towards the man in black.

"Damn it!" Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader of the men in black dodged quickly, but the frost still passed through his shoulders, leaving a faint frost.

"One more time!" Yun Xuan seized the opportunity to shout loudly, his sword flashing as he charged straight at the man in black. The two men coordinated perfectly, their attacks surging like a tide, gradually forcing the man in black into a tough fight.

"How ridiculous!" The man in black showed anger on his face. He suddenly took out a black talisman from his arms and threw it into the air.

"The black fog dissipates!" With the explosion of the talisman, thick black fog instantly surged out, covering the entire battlefield, and the visibility around was instantly reduced to the lowest.

"Now you can't see me!" The leader of the men in black smiled coldly and quickly blended into the black fog, as if he wanted to take the opportunity to counterattack.

"Yaoyue, we have to find a way to dispel this black fog!" Yunxuan's voice sounded particularly firm in the fog.

"I'll try!" Yaoyue nodded, took a deep breath, and began to mobilize the spiritual power in her body to cast a powerful spell.

"Power of light, dispel the darkness!" she shouted, with warm light flashing in her hands, trying to dispel the black fog.

At the same time, Yunxuan was not to be outdone. The sword light in his hand was like a meteor, cutting through the fog, trying hard to find the trace of the man in black.

"Do you think you can escape from my clutches like this?" The voice of the man in black echoed around, as if mocking their ignorance.

"As long as we have light in our hearts, we will definitely find a way out!" Yun Xuan shouted, and the sword light flashed dazzlingly in his hand.

At this moment, the figure of a man in black suddenly emerged from the black fog, holding a long sword and heading straight for Yaoyue. Yunxuan saw this, his heart tightened, and he immediately rushed over, his sword flashing.

"Don't even think about hurting her!" Yun Xuan roared, the sword flashed, just enough to block the attack of the man in black, and then he counterattacked.

"Hmph, you are too naive!" The man in black sneered, a sinister smile on his face, and suddenly launched a fierce attack, forcing Yunxuan to go all out.

The battle between the two was in full swing. Yaoyue felt secretly distressed, but she could not let her guard down and continued to cast spells to disperse the black fog.

"Power of Light!" She chanted again, and the warm light gradually expanded, pushing the black fog to the surroundings. Gradually, her vision became clearer.

"Now!" Yun Xuan was delighted, and the sword light was like a rainbow, hitting the black-clothed man's heart.

However, the man in black seemed prepared, suddenly sideways, and counterattacked with his long sword, directly approaching Yunxuan's wrist. Yunxuan was alert and quickly adjusted his posture. The sword light drew an arc and blocked the attack.

"What a pity you guys managed to hold on until now." The man in black showed disdain on his face, his eyes flashing with a sinister light.

"Don't think you can succeed easily!" Yun Xuan's voice was like thunder, and the sword swung out again, forcing the man in black to retreat.

At this moment, Yaoyue finally succeeded in dispelling most of the black fog. Her vision became clear, and she felt at ease.

"Yunxuan, hurry! I found an opportunity!" Yaoyue shouted loudly, holding the gem high in both hands and casting a powerful spell.

"My light will never go out!" As she roared, the light of the gem shone in the air and turned into a powerful energy that blasted towards the man in black.

"How is this possible!" The man in black retreated in horror, but there was nowhere to escape as he was surrounded by the light.

"Break it for me!" Yun Xuan roared, and the sword light and the light intersected, producing a terrible shock wave that headed straight for the man in black.

“Ugh—” The leader of the men in black groaned, and as the light burst forth, his body was knocked back. The powerful force made him fall to the ground, unable to move anymore.

"We succeeded!" Yaoyue shouted excitedly, with an incredulous smile on her face.

"But he won't give up." Yun Xuan looked at the man in black lying on the ground, secretly alert in his heart, "He is only temporarily suppressed. We must be more careful from now on."

"Then what should we do now?" Yaoyue asked anxiously.

"First of all, we have to make sure he can no longer threaten us." Yun Xuan analyzed calmly, knowing in his heart that although the man in black in front of him was seriously injured, if he was left alone, there would be endless troubles.

"I'll deal with him." Yun Xuan stepped forward, his sword flashing as he charged towards the man in black. "You absolutely cannot hurt us any further!"

"You are too naive. I will not give up easily!" The man in black roared. Obviously, he no longer had the arrogance of the past, and fear was revealed in his eyes.

Yun Xuan's sword flashed like a rainbow, rapidly approaching, with no mercy in his heart. At this moment, the man in black revealed a cunning smile and whispered a spell.

"Don't even think about plotting anything else!" Yao Yue was alert and quickly cast a spell to interrupt his spell.

"Too late!" The man in black sneered, and in an instant a black light wave rushed towards Yunxuan, heading straight for him.

"Yunxuan, be careful!" Yaoyue was startled and quickly reminded him. Yunxuan saw this and immediately dodged, but the black-clothed man's attack did not stop.

"No mercy!" Yaoyue's voice sounded in Yunxuan's ears, and then another spell surged towards the man in black like a tide.
