Rebirth in Another World: The Ultimate Legend

The instant the light collided with the light barrier, a devastating energy surge, like a raging tsunami, swept across the entire underground space with overwhelming force. The impact was so powerful it seemed capable of crushing everything in its path. Under the onslaught of this force, the surrounding walls creaked and groaned under the strain, then crumbled like tofu. The eerie green crystals embedded in the walls shattered instantly under the powerful impact, producing a crisp crackling sound, and sharp fragments flew in all directions like projectiles.

Lin Yu and the leading black-robed man were the first to be hit, sent flying backward like kites with broken strings by the terrifying impact. Lin Yu crashed heavily into a wall in the distance, feeling as if his internal organs had shifted. A sharp pain shot through him, and a mouthful of blood gushed uncontrollably from his mouth. At this moment, his body was extremely weak, as if a gentle breeze could knock him over. But his eyes remained as firm as steel, fixed on the slowly rotating rune array floating in the air, silently thinking, "I absolutely cannot let the rune array complete, or everything will be over!"

The leader, a man in black robes, was in equally dire straits. His once-mysterious black robe was now tattered and hung like a rag around his body. His skin was covered in gruesome wounds, blood gushing out and staining his body crimson. His breathing was erratic, each breath accompanied by a painful groan. Even so, a sliver of hope lingered in his heart: "As long as the rune array activates successfully, I still have a chance. I absolutely cannot let them destroy it!"

However, the rune array seemed largely unaffected; it continued its slow operation, the runes emitting an eerie glow moving along mysterious trajectories, their malevolent power surging like boiling magma. The remaining runes flickered with an even more sinister light, as if eager to fully merge into the rune array. Once this final step was completed, the passage to the dark world would likely be fully opened, plunging the world into endless darkness and terror.

Su Yao and the man in black robes struggled to their feet amidst the violently collapsing space, their eyes filled with anxiety and worry. Su Yao looked at the injured Lin Yu in the distance, her heart aching as if being torn apart. She endured the excruciating pain, summoning the last wisp of spiritual energy within her body. Her hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals, and she chanted, "Healing light, gather within me, heal my wounds, restore life." A soft white light emanated from her hands, like a flowing ribbon, drifting towards Lin Yu. The moment the light touched Lin Yu, his wounds began to heal at a visible speed, and his breathing stabilized slightly.

"Lin Yu, what do we do? We must stop the rune array!" Su Yao shouted, her voice echoing in the collapsing space, filled with urgency and helplessness.

Lin Yu gritted his teeth and struggled to his feet with all his might. His gaze slowly swept over his companions, and he saw that although they were all exhausted and had injuries of varying degrees, their eyes shone with a firm belief. He knew that they could not give up, and they absolutely could not give up.

"Listen up, everyone! Let's attack the rune array together! This is our last chance!" Lin Yu's voice was firm and powerful, resounding like a great bell in the chaotic space, injecting a powerful force into everyone.

Everyone nodded, their fighting spirit rekindled in their eyes. Although they had little spiritual power left and were extremely exhausted, they did not hesitate to use all their magic to stop this catastrophic disaster.

Su Yao took a deep breath, gathering the remaining ice-elemental spiritual power within her body once more. She waved her hands in the air, as if painting a mysterious scroll, and softly uttered, "Ice Spirit, condense light into a beam, vanquish evil and slay demons!" A beam of ice-blue light shot out from her hands, like a sharp ice sword, carrying a chilling aura, towards the rune array.

The man in black robes raised his hands high, his eyes flashing with a resolute light, and whispered, "Dark power, heed my command! Transform lightning into blades and destroy everything!" A black lightning bolt condensed in his hands, winding and twisting like a dragon, carrying powerful dark energy, and slashed towards the rune array.

The other cultivators of the Mystic Spirits also unleashed their signature spells. Some formed hand seals, summoning golden sword energies that shot towards the rune array like meteors; others chanted incantations, conjuring massive rocks from the ground and hurling them at the rune array; still others used wind magic, manipulating gales in an attempt to disrupt the rune array's operation. In an instant, multicolored lights converged towards the rune array, illuminating the entire space as if it were daytime.

The rune array seemed to sense the threat; its light flickered erratically, and the surrounding space distorted violently. As if brought to life, the rune array began a frenzied counterattack. Beams of black light shot out from the array like arrows, incredibly fast and carrying an evil aura, meeting the group's attacks head-on.

Light and darkness collided, unleashing a series of deafening explosions. Each explosion generated powerful energy fluctuations, causing the entire underground space to tremble precariously, as if it were about to collapse completely at any moment. Debris rained down, the cracks in the ground widened, and the entire space was filled with dust and smoke.

Lin Yu stared at the rune array, a sudden thought striking him. He recalled some insights he had gained from the ancient scroll during his battle with the mysterious organization. He pondered to himself, "Perhaps I can find a flaw in the rune array and break this stalemate."

Lin Yu concentrated all his energy, forcibly circulating the remaining spiritual power within his body, attempting to sense the complex and mysterious energy flow of the rune array. Amidst the chaos, his gaze became increasingly focused, as if everything around him had ceased to exist. Finally, he discovered that the energy core of the rune array was located at the bottom, where the light was most intense and the energy fluctuations were most violent. If he could destroy that spot, the rune array might collapse.

"Listen up, everyone! Focus your attack on the bottom of the rune array! That's the key!" Lin Yu shouted, his voice filled with surprise and urgency. At the same time, he drew his sword again and charged towards the rune array like a tiger, his eyes filled with determination and resolve.
