Chapter 172 Feather of Storm
Chapter 172 Feather of Storm
The mysterious figure was shrouded in a layer of hazy mist, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
Shen Mo placed his hand on the hilt of the sword alertly and shouted, "Who are you? Why are you stopping us?"
The mysterious man let out a deep laugh, "This Storm Feather is not something you can take away easily."
Lin Yuwei took a step forward and said, "We have come here through untold hardships, and we will never give up no matter what."
The mysterious man snorted coldly, "Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do it."
After saying that, the mysterious man waved his hands, and the surrounding strong winds instantly became more violent, forming wind blades that attacked them.
Shen Mo shouted loudly and waved his sword to block the wind blade. Lin Yuwei and Qingfeng also cast their own spells to try to resist the attack of the strong wind.
"Everyone be careful!" Shen Mo shouted.
In the strong wind, their movements became very difficult, but they still resisted tenaciously.
Upon seeing this, the mysterious man increased his power output, and the strong wind was like a roaring beast, making it almost impossible for them to stand.
Qingfeng gritted his teeth and said, "This is not a solution. We must find his weakness."
While Lin Yuwei was fending off the wind blade, she was observing the mysterious man's movements. Suddenly, she noticed a strange rune flashing under the mysterious man's feet.
"Shen Mo, attack the runes under his feet!" Lin Yuwei shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, Shen Mo used all his strength to rush towards the runes under the mysterious man's feet.
The moment the sword touched the rune, a powerful recoil force bounced Shen Mo back.
"No, this rune has powerful defensive power." Shen Mo fell to the ground.
At this time, Qingfeng seemed to have thought of something. He took out a crystal ball from his arms and muttered something.
The crystal ball emitted a soft light, gradually weakening the power of the strong wind.
Seeing this, the mysterious man's face turned gloomy, "I didn't expect you had such a treasure."
Taking advantage of the moment when the mysterious man was distracted, Lin Yuwei cast a powerful confinement spell, temporarily fixing the mysterious man in place.
"Shen Mo, hurry!" Lin Yuwei shouted.
Shen Mo stood up again and rushed towards the rune under the mysterious man's feet. This time, he successfully broke the rune's defense.
As the rune was broken, the strong wind stopped instantly and the mysterious man collapsed to the ground.
Shen Mo stepped forward and pointed his sword at the mysterious man. "Tell me, who are you?"
The mysterious man gasped, "I...I am just the guardian of this Storm Feather, and I have been ordered to prevent anyone from taking it."
Lin Yuwei said: "We took the Storm Feather to save the world, not for personal gain."
The mysterious man was silent for a moment, then said: "Well, in that case, perhaps this is fate's arrangement. But the power of this Storm Feather is extremely strong, you must use it with caution."
After saying this, the mysterious man disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Shen Mo carefully picked up the Storm Feather, feeling the powerful force contained in it.
"Finally, we have collected all three holy objects." Shen Mo said.
Lin Yuwei and Qingfeng also showed relieved smiles on their faces.
"Now let's go back quickly, combine the sacred object with the jade pendant and the stone slab, and unlock the secret." Qingfeng said.
They set out on their journey home. Along the way, Shen Mo continued to study the Feather of Storm, trying to understand its power characteristics.
Lin Yuwei was thinking about the challenges she might face after returning, "I wonder if those who covet the power of the jade pendant and the stone slab will appear again."
Qingfeng comforted him: "Don't worry, as long as we unite as one, we will be able to cope with it."
After several days of travel, they returned to the original place.
Shen Mo placed the Ice Crystal Tears, the Flame Heart and the Storm Feather next to the jade pendant and the stone slab, and prepared to start the ceremony according to the method he had learned before.
Just as they were about to start the ceremony, a group of men in black suddenly appeared and surrounded them.
"Hand over the things!" said the leader of the men in black.
Shen Mo glared at them, "Don't even think about it!"
The two sides fell into a confrontation.
The leader of the men in black sneered, "If you don't accept my toast, then I'll punish you. Come on!"
The men in black rushed towards Shen Mo and the others.
Shen Mo, Lin Yuwei and Qingfeng stood back to back and engaged in a fierce battle with the men in black.
The sword in Shen Mo's hand was shining, and every swing could repel several men in black.
Lin Yuwei's magic spell bloomed among the crowd, causing considerable damage to the men in black.
Qingfeng continued to support Shen Mo and Lin Yuwei with his flexible body and powerful spells.
However, the men in black kept coming, and they gradually felt that they were overwhelmed.
"This is not a solution. We must start the ceremony as soon as possible." Qingfeng said.
Shen Mo nodded, "Yuwei, you and Qingfeng protect the holy object, I will stop them."
Lin Yuwei and Qingfeng followed Shen Mo's instructions and began to prepare for the launching ceremony.
Shen Mo faced many men in black alone, with multiple injuries on his body.
Just when he was about to collapse, Lin Yuwei shouted, "Shen Mo, the ceremony is ready!"
Shen Mo used up his last bit of strength to break free from the man in black and returned to Lin Yuwei and Qingfeng.
They started the ritual together, and light suddenly burst out...
