The mysterious figure in the black robe let out a wild laugh that echoed eerily through the empty temple, sending shivers down their spines. In a flash, he vanished from his spot and reappeared behind Reynold in the next instant. His palms, charged with chaotic black energy, struck viciously at Reynold. But Reynold was prepared. With his exquisite control of space-time magic, he sidestepped nimbly at the critical moment, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow. At the same time, he swung the Trident of the Sea God, the tip tracing an arc, stabbing back at the mysterious man with the power of the stars and the aura of the Demon God.
The mysterious man remained calm. He raised one hand, and a dark vortex emerged from his palm, sucking in all the attacks of the trident. "Hmph, is that all you've got? You think you can stop me?" the mysterious man taunted. Lina saw this and let out a fierce shout. Her long whip, like an agile viper, attacked the mysterious man from the side. The tip of the whip glinted with the aura of fighting spirit, aiming straight for the man's throat. The mysterious man tilted his head slightly and easily evaded the blow. Then, with a backhand swing, a wave of black energy surged towards Lina.
Evelyn was quick-eyed. She swiftly summoned a thicket of tough thorns, positioning it in front of Lina. The thorns on the thicket, empowered by the purifying light, not only withstood the impact of the dark energy wave but also attempted to purify and disintegrate it. Alicia seized the opportunity to inscribe a rune禁锢阵 on the ground. The rune glowed and spread towards the mysterious man, intending to restrict his movements.
However, the mysterious man's power was beyond imagination. With a sudden surge of his dark aura, he shattered the rune禁锢阵. Then, like a ghost, he shuttled among the group, continuously releasing dark energy balls from his hands, attacking from all directions. Reynold and his companions were plunged into a fierce battle. They could only rely on their mutual understanding, constantly dodging, blocking, and counterattacking.
During the fierce battle, Reynold敏锐察觉到 that although the mysterious man's power was strong and evil, it seemed somewhat unstable. It was as if he had forcibly fused some禁忌力量 and hadn't fully mastered it yet. An idea struck him, and he shouted, "Hold on, everyone! There's a flaw in his power. Let's focus our attacks on his right arm. That's the key to his energy output!"
Hearing this, everyone's spirits were lifted, and they immediately adjusted their tactics. Lina swung her long whip even more furiously, specifically targeting the mysterious man's right arm. Each lash of the whip tip was accompanied by a whistling wind. Evelyn continuously channeled her magic into the thorn thicket, making it grow taller and denser. On one hand, it provided cover for everyone; on the other hand, the thorns on it interfered with the mysterious man's movements. Alicia focused intently on inscribing runes and attaching them to everyone's weapons to enhance the destructive power of their attacks. At the same time, she was ready to cast healing magic for any injured companions at any time.
Reynold activated the Demon God Assimilation to its strongest state. The purple-black light surrounding him was so dazzling that it was almost blinding. Holding the three artifacts, he coordinated closely with his companions and launched fierce attacks on the mysterious man's right arm time and time again. Under the concerted siege of everyone, cracks gradually appeared in the mysterious man's right arm, and the output of dark energy became intermittent.
Seeing this, the mysterious man flew into a rage. He took a few steps back, muttering incantations, and then quickly formed seals with his hands in front of his chest. In an instant, the dark aura in the entire temple converged frantically, forming a huge dark sphere. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled inside the sphere, containing a power capable of destroying everything. "Since you're so reckless, you can all die with me!" the mysterious man roared.
Reynold's eyes were cold. He knew full well the enormity of this attack. If they tried to withstand it head-on, they would surely be doomed. Without hesitation, he plunged the Trident of the Sea God deep into the ground. Drawing on the power of the artifact, he mobilized the surrounding space-time energy, attempting to construct a defensive barrier. Evelyn, Lina, and Alicia also quickly gathered around, pouring their magic, fighting spirit, and rune power into the barrier without reservation, jointly strengthening the defense.
The dark sphere came crashing down with a howl of destruction, slamming into the barrier. For a moment, the light was so blinding that no one could open their eyes. The intense energy impact cracked the ground beneath their feet. The barrier was on the verge of collapsing under the巨大的压力. Everyone gritted th
