Chapter 371: The Crisis After the Mysterious Bell Rings
Upon hearing the urgent chimes, Liu Yu and the others felt a pang of anxiety, their joy at their successful breakthrough vanishing instantly.
"The sound of this bell is strange; it's probably not a good sign." Bai Suzhen frowned, her face showing worry.
Liu Yu nodded, his expression grave, and said, "No matter what, let's go take a look first. Everyone, be careful."
The group hurried along the path from which the bell tolled, the atmosphere tense as they went. The surrounding woods grew increasingly eerie, the wind howling as if countless eyes were watching them.
Finally, they arrived at an ancient temple. The temple doors were tightly shut, covered with strange runes, exuding a mysterious and dangerous aura. The urgent tolling of the bells was emanating from within the temple.
Pigsy stared at the temple and swallowed hard. "I feel like this place is really weird."
Xiaoqing gripped the bell tightly: "What are you afraid of? With us here, we'll definitely find out the truth."
Liu Yu took a deep breath, stepped forward, and gently pushed the temple door. The door slowly opened, and a musty, decaying smell wafted out.
As the group entered the temple, they found the interior dark and gloomy, with eerie lights flickering on the walls. In the very center stood a colossal statue, its face indistinct, yet exuding an invisible sense of oppression.
Just then, the bells suddenly stopped, and the entire temple fell into a deathly silence.
Liu Yu looked around warily and said, "Everyone be careful, something's wrong."
Before the words were even finished, the statue suddenly moved, and a powerful force erupted from it, blasting everyone away.
Liu Yu fell heavily to the ground, but he quickly got up and stared at the statue with a determined look in his eyes: "There's something strange about this statue. Everyone be careful!"
Bai Suzhen used ice magic to try to freeze the statue's movements, but the magic was neutralized by an invisible force as soon as it got close to the statue.
Xiaoqing shook the bell, sending out a purple light that shot towards the statue, but it had no effect.
Pigsy roared and charged forward, brandishing his nine-toothed rake, but before he could even get close to the statue, he was sent flying again.
Liu Yu was anxious and racked his brains for a solution. Suddenly, he noticed a magic circle flickering at the feet of the statue.
"Perhaps that's the key!" Liu Yu shouted.
Upon hearing this, everyone launched an attack on the magic circle at the feet of the statue.
In an instant, various magical lights intertwined and shot towards the magic circle.
The statues seemed to sense their intentions and began to fight back fiercely, their powerful force causing the entire temple to tremble.
Just as everyone was locked in a stalemate with the statue, Xiao Tian, wearing green shorts, cleverly circled around to the back of the statue and discovered a hidden mechanism.
Its barking caught Liu Yu's attention.
Liu Yu flew over and pressed the mechanism, instantly stopping the statue's movements.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but before they could recover, many black holes suddenly appeared on the temple walls, and countless monsters poured out of them.
These monsters come in all shapes and sizes; some have sharp claws, some breathe fire, and others can unleash powerful spells.
Liu Yu shouted, "Everyone stand back to back! Don't give the monster a chance to get in!"
The group quickly gathered and engaged in a fierce battle with the monster.
Liu Yu unleashed the powerful spell he had just acquired after his breakthrough; wherever the light touched, monsters fell one after another.
Bai Suzhen's ice magic also unleashed tremendous power, freezing a group of monsters into ice sculptures.
With her agile movements and the power of her bells, Xiaoqing moved freely through the monster horde, delivering fatal blows to the monsters.
Although Zhu Bajie was fat, he was incredibly strong, and every time he raked down a group of monsters, he could smash them down.
Wearing green shorts, Xiao Tian was not to be outdone. It bit the monster's leg, creating an opportunity for the others to attack.
The battle lasted a long time, and everyone's strength was gradually exhausted, but the monsters seemed endless.
Liu Yu thought to himself, "This can't go on. We must find the source of the monster's appearance."
He fought while observing his surroundings.
Finally, he discovered that the black holes seemed to be controlled by a black gemstone at the top of the temple.
Liu Yu shouted, "Attack that gem! Maybe that can stop the monster from appearing!"
Upon hearing this, everyone unleashed their strongest spells, attacking the gemstone.
The gem sensed the threat and unleashed a powerful force to resist.
Liu Yu gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength, continuously pouring his magical power into the attack.
With everyone's combined efforts, the gem finally gave way and shattered with a "bang".
As the gem shattered, the black hole disappeared, and the monster ceased to appear.
Exhausted, everyone collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
Pigsy said weakly, "I'm about to die. This is too much torment."
Liu Yu, panting, said, "We can't relax yet. We need to get out of here quickly; there might be other dangers."
Just as they were about to leave the temple, a mysterious figure appeared at the door.
The figure was shrouded in darkness, its face obscured, but a deep voice could be heard: "You think you can leave like this? How naive!"
Liu Yu and the others watched the mysterious figure warily, their hearts filled with vigilance.
The mysterious figure slowly raised its hand, and a powerful dark force swept towards them.
Liu Yu and the others quickly got up to resist, but the dark power was too strong, and they were repelled once again.
Bai Suzhen said, "This person's strength is unfathomable. What should we do?"
Liu Yu's eyes were resolute: "No matter what, we cannot back down!"
Just when they were in trouble, Liu Yu suddenly remembered a forbidden spell mentioned in the book.
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "There is no other way but to take the risk."
Everyone nodded, indicating their willingness to take the risk with Liu Yu.
Liu Yu began to cast forbidden spells, and the powerful magical fluctuations distorted the surrounding space.
The mysterious figure seemed to sense the threat and intensified its attack.
At the crucial moment when the spell was about to be completed, Liu Yu's magical power was briefly depleted.
Bai Suzhen transferred her magical power to Liu Yu without hesitation.
With Bai Suzhen's support, Liu Yu finally succeeded in casting the forbidden spell.
A dazzling light shot towards the mysterious figure, who let out a scream and vanished.
The danger in the temple was finally over, and Liu Yu and the others dragged their tired bodies out of the temple.
However, unbeknownst to them, a far greater conspiracy awaited them...
