Chapter 395: Fighting in the Ruins, Breaking the Shield to Find the Secret

Everyone nodded, suppressing the turmoil surging in their hearts and trying to calm down. Accompanied by Xiaolong, they continued to move deeper into the ruins.

After some detailed inquiries, Xue Tianhan finally figured out Xiaolong's origins.

It turned out that this was a dragon egg he had obtained by chance at the ruins of the Dragon Palace in the North Sea. After bringing the dragon egg back, Xue Tianhan had kept it in the space.

Later, under Xue Donglan's careful care, the dragon egg finally hatched into a majestic seven-clawed golden dragon.

At this moment, the little dragon followed everyone closely, its smart eyes full of curiosity and vigilance about the unknown road ahead.

Along the way, the atmosphere of the ruins became increasingly eerie and strange, as if they had stepped into a cursed ghostland.

Thick fog filled the air, like layer upon layer of heavy gauze curtains, enveloping everyone tightly.

In the fog, some strange sounds can be faintly heard, as if they are there and not there.

Sometimes it sounds like a low roar, as if an ancient beast is expressing dissatisfaction in its sleep; sometimes it sounds like a sharp howl, as if an innocent soul is crying out endless pain in the darkness.

It was as if countless pairs of cold eyes were staring at them in the darkness, which was creepy.

Everyone walked forward cautiously, and as they walked, a huge stone gate suddenly appeared in front of them.

The stone gate is simple and heavy, engraved with mysterious runes. These runes are twisted and seem like codes from another time and space, exuding an ancient and dangerous aura, as if quietly telling a mysterious story long forgotten by the dust of time.

Xue Tianhan frowned, his expression solemn, and said cautiously: "Everyone be careful, this stone door looks strange, don't approach it easily." His voice was low and firm, with a hint of unquestionable vigilance.

However, Xiao Huang couldn't suppress his curiosity.

Its eyes sparkled with excitement, like a playful puppy. It could not wait to get closer, looking left and right, touching the things, and kept muttering, "What are you afraid of? There might be some rare treasure hidden inside!"

Just as it reached out to touch the stone door, the stone door suddenly burst out with a strong light, making it impossible for everyone to open their eyes.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful suction force surged out from the stone gate, like an invisible giant hand, sucking everyone in irresistibly.

"Oh my God, what's going on!" Xiao Huang shouted in horror, his voice sounding particularly sharp and piercing in the whistling wind.

After a while of dizziness, everyone felt their vision go black. When they came to their senses, they found themselves in a huge cave.

The walls of the cave are inlaid with many gems emitting a faint green light. The light of these gems is dim, making the entire cave look gloomy and terrifying.

In the center of the cave, there is a huge stone platform, on which is placed a black ball emitting a strange light.

There seemed to be a layer of faint mist slowly surging on the surface of the sphere, exuding a mysterious aura.

Before everyone could react, a group of strange monsters suddenly emerged from the cave.

These monsters are shaped like bats, but have huge fangs and sharp claws. Their wings are covered with black scales, which flash strangely under the dim green light.

They let out sharp cries, breaking the silence of the cave, and like a group of hungry demons, they pounced towards everyone with bared fangs and claws.

Xue Tianhan reacted extremely quickly, unsheathing the cold sword. The power of chaos surged on the blade like surging waves. The sword body instantly burst out with a dazzling light, instantly dispelling the surrounding darkness.

He shouted, "Everyone be careful, these monsters are not easy to deal with!" The voice resounded through the cave like a bell, giving everyone a shot of adrenaline.

Xiaobai suddenly opened his bloody mouth, and the scorching dragon flames surged out like a volcanic eruption, with a destructive momentum, instantly swallowing several monsters.

In the firelight, the monsters' figures were distorted and they let out miserable screams.

But the other monsters showed no intention of retreating. Instead, they were stimulated by the bloody smell and became even more crazy. With bloodthirsty light flashing in their eyes, they rushed forward desperately.

Lady Green Snake waved the Vermillion Bird fan with swift and powerful movements. The flames on the fan intertwined with the wind blades, forming an impenetrable hot barrier.

Each wind blade cut through the air like a sharp blade, and the flames burned fiercely, forcing back the approaching monsters.

She shouted, "Everyone, hold on! These monsters look scary, but we're not pushovers!"

Hu Meiniang danced the dragon bone whip in her hand with great force. The tip of the whip made a whistling sound, like a black lightning, and hit the monster fiercely.

Each lash was accompanied by a dull thud, but the monsters' hide was as hard as iron, and her attacks only caused minor damage. The monsters were completely enraged, roaring and charging at her even more frantically.

Hu Meiniang's face showed a hint of nervousness, and she shouted, "This monster's skin is too thick, let's work harder!"

"Look at me, the invincible whirlwind dog spirit stick!" Xiao Huang endured the pain left by the previous battle, his body was as agile as a ghost, and the dog spirit stick in his hand matched the dragon gloves perfectly.

Its eyes revealed a firm determination. It targeted a monster's weakness, and instantly condensed powerful spiritual power on the dragon gloves. With a whistling sound, it slammed towards the monster's head.

After being hit, the monster let out a painful scream, its body shook violently, and it staggered back.

As the battle continued, spiritual energy surged in the cave and light flickered.

The monsters' attacks became more and more fierce. They coordinated with each other and rushed towards the crowd from all directions.

Everyone gradually felt their spiritual power was exhausted, their clothes were soaked with sweat, and their breathing became rapid.

While fending off the monsters' attacks, Xue Tianhan keenly observed the surrounding environment, trying to find a way out of the predicament.

Suddenly, he found some strange patterns on the walls of the cave. The lines of these patterns were simple, but they seemed to contain some deep meaning.

"Don't panic, everyone. Look at the patterns on the walls. Maybe there are some clues!" Xue Tianhan shouted, his voice echoing in the cave.

Hearing this, everyone looked towards the wall.

Xiao Huang also came over, squinting his eyes and carefully examining it for a long time. Suddenly, he shouted excitedly, "I think I understand. These patterns seem to be saying that as long as we destroy that black sphere, we can find the treasure inside!"

There was a hint of excitement in its voice, as if it saw the dawn of victory.

Lady Green Snake frowned and said, "But these monsters are constantly pestering us. How can we get close to the ball?"

Hu Meiniang agreed, "Yes, we have to get rid of these monsters first."

Everyone's eyes lit up after hearing Xiao Huang's words, but before they could take any action, the monsters seemed to sense the danger and their attacks became more frantic.

A huge monster suddenly flapped its wings, stirring up a foul-smelling gust of wind, and pounced towards Hu Meiniang like a cannonball.

Hu Meiniang was unable to dodge and was scratched on the arm by the sharp claws. The blood instantly dyed her sleeves red.

"Sister Mei!" Seeing this, Xiao Huang was extremely anxious and rushed over regardless of everything. He used all his strength to smash the monster with the dog spirit stick in his hand.

However, the monster's skin was thick and tough, so the blow barely hurt it. The monster turned its head, stared at Xiao Huang fiercely, and pounced again with its fangs and claws bared, looking very aggressive.

Xue Tianhan knew that he could not delay any longer. He took a deep breath, circulated the chaotic power in his body, and gathered all his strength into the cold light sword without reservation.

The sword shone brightly, and the dazzling light illuminated the entire cave like a scorching sun.

"Xiaobai, Xiaolong, let's go together!" He shouted and rushed towards the black ball on the stone platform like an arrow.

The blazing dragon flames spewed out by Xiaobai were like a winding fire dragon. Wherever it went, monsters hid away, and the scorching heat made the surrounding air distorted.

Xiaolong was not to be outdone. Blue light flashed around him, and the blue cold air he spewed out was like an extremely cold storm. The monsters that approached were instantly frozen, their bodies wrapped in a thick layer of ice, unable to move.

Lady Green Snake waved the Vermillion Bird fan, providing cover for everyone in the rear. Flames and wind blades continuously intertwined, repelling the monsters that attempted to launch sneak attacks one by one.

Xue Tianhan finally arrived in front of the stone platform. He raised the Cold Light Sword high. The chaotic power on the sword merged with his momentum, forming a powerful sense of oppression.

He slashed at the black sphere fiercely, and the sword blade cut through the air like a flash of lightning, making a whistling sound.

However, just as the sword was about to touch the sphere, a black shield suddenly emerged from the surface of the sphere, blocking all of Xue Tianhan's attacks.

A powerful recoil force came, and Xue Tianhan's arm became numb, and he almost couldn't hold the sword.

"What should we do?" Xue Tianhan frowned, secretly pondering a countermeasure. At this moment, the monsters' attacks were becoming more and more fierce, and the group's defenses were shaky and in danger of collapsing at any moment.

Just when everyone was in despair, Xiaolong suddenly flew to Xue Tianhan. It rubbed Xue Tianhan gently with its head, as if conveying some message.

Xue Tianhan's heart moved, he found that the blue light on Xiaolong's body had some vague connection with the black shield on the sphere.

“Could it be…” Xue Tianhan didn’t have time to think about it. He quickly merged the power of chaos with Xiaolong’s coldness and attacked the black sphere again.

This time, the moment the black shield came into contact with the attack, cracks began to appear, making a "sizzling" sound.

"Everyone, help together and concentrate your strength to attack!" Xue Tianhan shouted.

Upon hearing this, everyone used all their strength, gathered their power together without reservation, and attacked the black sphere.

Xiaobai's dragon flame, Xiaolong's cold air, Green Snake Lady's flame and wind blade, Hu Meiniang's power of the dragon bone whip, Xiaohuang's dog spirit stick and dragon gloves, all gathered into a powerful force, like a powerful cannonball, slamming heavily into the black sphere.

Under the joint attack of everyone, the shield on the black sphere finally shattered with a deafening roar.

The sphere trembled violently, then slowly cracked open. A dazzling light burst out from it, instantly dispelling the darkness in the cave.

As the light faded, everyone discovered that there was an ancient book exuding a mysterious aura hidden in the sphere.

Before they could go forward to check, the ancient book suddenly turned into a stream of light and went straight into Xue Tianhan's sea of ​​consciousness.

"This..." Before Xue Tianhan could react, a huge amount of information instantly flooded into his mind, and his face became extremely solemn.
