Chapter 13: Out of the Labyrinth

Lin Yu and the three of them walked cautiously in the labyrinth, every step was full of unknowns and dangers. After leaving the spiky hall, they encountered several more traps and powerful monsters, but with Lin Yu's exquisite use of the power of the stars, Su Yi's fierce swordsmanship, and Su Yao's unpredictable water spells, they all saved the day. As you go deeper into the labyrinth, the surrounding environment becomes more and more eerie. Various distorted human faces began to appear on the walls, as if struggling in pain, and a faint wail was creepy. The ground also became soft and muddy, and it took a lot of effort to take every step. "This labyrinth seems to be deliberately draining our physical and spiritual power." Su Yi frowned and looked around vigilantly. Lin Yu nodded, his expression solemn: "That's right, the Shadow Demon King will definitely not let us go easily." Everyone stay vigilant, save spiritual power, and find the exit as soon as possible. Just then, a fog appeared ahead. The fog was as thick as ink, and it was impossible to see what was going on inside. Lin Yu used the power of the stars to try to see through the mist, but the fog seemed to isolate his perception. "What to do? I'm afraid it will be dangerous to rush in. Su Yao said worriedly. Lin Yu pondered for a moment and took out a piece of spirit crystal from his arms. He poured the power of the stars into the spirit crystal, which suddenly emitted a soft light. He tossed the crystal forward, and the crystal slowly walked through the mist, the light illuminating a small area. "Follow the spirit crystal, so you can see some of the way." Lin Yu said. The three of them followed closely and stepped into the mist. From time to time, strange noises could be heard in the mist, as if something was peering at them in the darkness. Suddenly, the light of the spirit crystal flickered violently, and immediately after, a huge tentacle suddenly stretched out from the mist and grabbed towards Lin Yu. Lin Yu reacted quickly, cast the Star Phantom Step, and instantly avoided the tentacle's attack. Su Yi and Su Yao immediately attacked, and Su Yi's spiritual power long sword slashed at the tentacles, splashing a black liquid; Su Yao froze the tentacles with a water-based spell, slowing them down. Lin Yu saw the opportunity, activated the power of the stars, condensed a star sword qi, and slashed towards the root of the tentacle. With a scream, the tentacle was severed and retracted. "It seems that there are many dangers hidden in this fog, so everyone must be careful." Lin Yu reminded. They continued to follow the spirit crystal, encountering several similar attacks along the way, but they were all successfully neutralized. I don't know how long they walked, the light of the spirit crystal gradually dimmed, and just when they felt desperate, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in front of them. "It's an exit!" Su Yi shouted excitedly. The three of them quickened their pace and ran towards the light. Finally, they came out of the fog and came to a huge square. The square is covered with all kinds of ancient runes and statues, which come in different forms, some are hideous demons, some are mysterious sorcerers. At the end of the square, there was a huge stone gate, on which was carved a lifelike black dragon, and the eyes of the black dragon flashed red, as if watching them. "Behind this door, maybe that's where the Shadow Lord is." Lin Yu said. They slowly walked towards the stone gate, and as they approached the stone gate, the black dragon suddenly let out an earth-shattering roar, and the stone gate slowly opened. Inside the door was a huge space, and the Shadow Demon Lord was standing in the center, and behind him, was a huge circle that emitted a strange light. "You're finally here, it's your own death." The Shadow Demon Lord sneered, "This circle has absorbed enough dark power, none of you want to leave alive today!" As he spoke, he waved his hands, and the magic circle shone brightly, and countless dark energies surged towards Lin Yu and the three of them... The dark energy swept towards Lin Yu and the three of them like a surging black wave. Lin Yu quickly used the power of the stars and built a solid star shield in front of him. Su Yao and Su Yi also showed no weakness, Su Yao cast an ice shield technique, and the crystal clear ice shield condensed in front of her; Su Yi poured spiritual power into the long sword, and the light of the sword body skyrocketed, trying to slash through the dark energy with sword qi. The dark energy collided with the star shield, ice shield, and sword energy, and erupted into a deafening roar. The wind generated by the energy blast raged in the huge space, causing the three of them to hunt and hunt. Lin Yu gritted his teeth and did his best to maintain the Star Shield, he knew that once the shield was broken, they would face the impact of dark energy, and the consequences would be unimaginable. "Lin Yu, the power of this magic circle is too strong, we must find a way to destroy it!" Su Yi shouted loudly in the wind. Lin Yu nodded, his gaze firmly at the Shadow Demon King and the magic circle behind him: "Su Yao, you interfere with the actions of the Shadow Demon King with the spiritual power of the water system, Su Yi, let's look for the flaws in the magic circle together and work together to destroy it!" Su Yao immediately understood, her hands quickly sealed, and a powerful water spiritual power poured out of her body. She unleashed "Water Dragon Break", a giant dragon made of water elemental condensation roaring towards the Shadow Lord. The Shadow Demon King snorted coldly, waving his hands, and the dark energy turned into a huge black hand, facing the water dragon. The water dragon and the black hand collided in the air, the water splashed, and part of the dark energy was also dispersed. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Yu and Su Yi's figures flashed and rushed towards the magic circle. The Shadow Lord sensed their intentions and departed a portion of his dark energy to stop them. Lin Yu cast the Star Phantom Step, shuttling freely through the dark energy, while constantly using the Chaos Palm to fly the approaching dark power. Su Yi followed closely behind, swinging his spiritual power long sword, and the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, slashing the dark energy. Finally, they came to the circle. The circle emitted an eerie glow, and the runes flickered, as if resisting their approach.Lin Yu carefully observed the magic circle and found that there was a black crystal at the core of the magic circle, which contained extremely powerful dark power, which was the source of energy for the entire magic circle. "That's it, we're going to destroy this crystal!" Lin Yu shouted. Lin Yu and Su Yi attacked at the same time, and Lin Yu gathered the power of the stars in the palm of his hand and unleashed the strongest blow of the Chaos Palm; Su Yi poured the spiritual power of his whole body into the long sword, emitting a dazzling sword aura. Two powerful attacks hit the black crystal at the same time, and the crystal trembled violently, and the light flickered. Seeing this, the Shadow Demon King was shocked, and he rushed to the circle desperately, trying to stop Lin Yu and Su Yi. How could Su Yao let him succeed, she once again cast a powerful water spell, and a huge ice wall rose from the ground, blocking the Shadow Demon King's way. "Damn!" The Shadow Demon King roared angrily, and he frantically attacked the ice wall, but the ice wall was still as solid as a rock under Su Yao's full strength. Under the continuous attack of Lin Yu and Su Yi, a crack finally appeared in the black crystal. With a crisp cracking sound, the crystal shattered completely, and the dark energy instantly lost its source and began to dissipate. The light of the circle dimmed and gradually ceased to function. "No!" The Shadow Lord let out a desperate roar, and his heart was filled with reluctance as he watched his carefully arranged circle be destroyed. Without the support of the circle, the Shadow King's strength has been greatly reduced. Lin Yu and the three of them took the opportunity to launch the final attack, and Lin Yu used the ultimate technique of the power of the stars, "Star Fall", and countless meteors seemed to appear in the sky, falling towards the Shadow Demon King; Su Yishi exhibited the "Sword Shadow Storm", and countless sword shadows shrouded the Shadow Demon King; Su Yao cast the "Ice Trial", and huge ice picks rained down on the Shadow Demon King. Under the combined attack of the three of them, the Shadow Demon King let out a terrible scream, and his body was hit by a powerful force, turning into a cloud of black smoke and dissipating into the air...
