Chapter 287 Hope and Crisis
Li Zhao, Su Mengyao and another companion stared closely at the purification crystal in their hands that was emitting dazzling light. They did not blink, for fear of missing any details.
Deep in their hearts, there was a mixture of shock and hope.
The light was like the first ray of dawn piercing through the dark clouds at dawn, bringing endless warmth and brightness.
In this vast universe that is gradually being swallowed by darkness, this ray of light is like a life-saving straw, bringing a glimmer of hope to them who are in desperate situation.
"What on earth is going on with this purification crystal? Why does it suddenly burst out with such powerful, unbelievable power?"
Su Mengyao's already beautiful face now looked even more lively because of the doubts in her heart.
She frowned slightly, and her eyes, as bright and dazzling as ice-blue gemstones, stared intently at the purifying crystal in front of her. The light was clearly reflected in her eyes, making her look even deeper and more mysterious, as if she was trying to peek through the dazzling light to find the answer to the question hidden behind it.
The spiritual messenger standing aside closed his eyes tightly and used all his strength to activate his Eye of Samsara, which possessed magical powers.
Her eyeballs began to move rapidly, and weak energy fluctuations spread out from her as the center.
Even though she had tried her best, it was still not easy to analyze the source of the crystal's power.
After a long moment, the Spirit Envoy finally slowly opened her eyes. Her brows were still furrowed tightly as she spoke solemnly, "This power is ancient and mysterious. I feel it seems to have some connection to the primordial order established at the birth of the universe. Perhaps this Purifying Crystal was originally one of the key items used to seal the Chaos Demon God, but its true power has been deeply hidden until now, and has only been successfully unleashed at this critical moment."
The black figure saw that his palm was blocked by the light emitted by the purification crystal, and he couldn't help but be furious, and let out a deafening roar!
In an instant, the already extremely dense black aura around him began to roll wildly like a surging black flame, and this aura became more and more intense, as if it was going to swallow up the entire space.
The black figure suddenly exerted force, and its huge palm continued to press down mercilessly towards Li Zhao and the other three!
Although the light emitted by the purifying crystal was still stubbornly resisting the attack of the black figure, under the fierce impact of the opponent's powerful force, the light began to fluctuate slightly, as if it might collapse at any time.
Seeing this, Li Zhao's heart tightened. He quickly gritted his teeth and used all his strength to tightly grasp the purifying crystal with both hands. At the same time, he tried desperately to inject his own power into it continuously, hoping to thereby increase the intensity of the light.
The power of origin and the power of causality in his body seemed to have sensed the call of their master and began to surge, like a torrent rushing through his meridians.
What is unexpected is that when these powerful forces touch the purification crystals, they are like a drop in the ocean, and are quickly absorbed by the crystals in an instant.
But even so, the intensity of the light emitted by the purification crystal did not increase significantly, which made Li Zhao anxious.
"Absolutely not! If this continues, the light emitted by the purification crystal won't last much longer!"
Li Zhao shouted anxiously, his voice full of anxiety and uneasiness.
Seeing this, Su Mengyao on the side did not hesitate to use her unique skills. She danced her hands rapidly, and in an instant, countless extremely sharp ice blades condensed in the air and rushed towards the black figure at lightning speed.
These ice blades flashed with a bone-chilling cold light, as if they were going to freeze everything.
The moment the ice blades came into contact with the black figure, a shocking scene occurred - they were like encountering a raging fire, and were instantly melted into nothingness by the powerful aura emanating from the black figure.
However, even so, this short and fierce attack successfully attracted the attention of the black figure, distracting it temporarily and slightly alleviating the huge pressure on the purification crystal.
The light of the purifying crystal also became slightly more stable.
The brave and fearless spirit messenger was trying his best to control the Eye of Samsara, concentrating all his strength to launch wave after wave of attacks on those strange black threads.
As time goes by, it can be clearly seen that some of the black threads have begun to show signs of cracking and breaking.
However, the mysterious power hidden behind it seemed to be keenly aware of the crisis it was facing, so it continuously supplied more energy to reinforce these black threads in an attempt to prevent them from being completely destroyed.
At this moment, the spiritual messenger was already sweating profusely, and her originally fair face looked extremely pale due to excessive energy consumption.
But she still gritted her teeth and stared at the scene in front of her. She knew very well in her mind that if she could successfully break these black threads completely, then she could cut off the connection between the mysterious man and the evil force.
In this way, perhaps the powerful strength of this terrifying black figure can be effectively weakened, creating a glimmer of hope for the final defeat of it.
The black figure seemed to be enraged by the resistance of Li Zhao and the other two. Its other hand also reached out to grab them, and the two huge palms formed a siege, trying to crush Li Zhao and the other two completely.
The light of the purifying crystal began to dim under this powerful pressure, and the expressions of Li Zhao and the other two became increasingly ugly.
Just when everyone was feeling hopeless, the Spirit Envoy suddenly shouted, "Li Zhao, try to use the Time-Reversal Blade to guide the power of the Purification Crystal. Maybe you can find a breakthrough!"
Upon hearing this, Li Zhao immediately brought the Reverse Time Blade closer to the purification crystal.
The causal halo on the blade and the light of the crystal intertwined with each other. In an instant, the light of the purifying crystal became brighter, and a powerful energy column shot out from the crystal and directly hit the black figure.
The black figure let out a painful roar, his body shook, and his two palms paused.
Li Zhao and the other two saw hope, and their morale was boosted. Su Mengyao manipulated the power of ice, building ice walls around the black figure, attempting to restrict its movement. The ice walls melted as soon as they formed, but this bought Li Zhao time to further channel the power of the purifying crystal.
Li Zhao concentrated his mind and injected the power of the law of cause and effect into the Reverse Time Blade with all his strength, and then guided the power of the purifying crystal through the Reverse Time Blade.
With his efforts, the energy column became more solid and the light became more dazzling.
The black figure seemed to be aware of the danger and began to struggle frantically. The black aura around it spread like an explosion, and the surrounding space was torn into countless tiny cracks.
Suddenly, the black figure opened its mouth, and a black beam of light shot out, colliding head-on with the energy column of the purifying crystal. The powerful impact plunged the surrounding space into chaos, completely obliterating the light of the stars. It seemed as if the universe had entered a dark abyss. Li Zhao and the other two were sent flying backwards uncontrollably by this impact, and the light of the purifying crystal dimmed.
At this moment, the mysterious man beside him suddenly moved.
A new limb actually began to grow rapidly from his severed arm. Madness and fear intertwined in his eyes as he rushed towards Li Zhao and the other two.
Seeing this, Su Mengyao immediately condensed an ice shield to block everyone.
The mysterious man rushed to the ice shield and tore it apart frantically with his hands, muttering, "All of this is mine. No one can stop me from becoming the master!"
The spirit messenger looked at the mysterious man in surprise. Through the Eye of Samsara, she found that the mysterious man seemed to be driven by some force and became even crazier.
She realized that this force might be the black figure forcibly strengthening its control over the mysterious man in order to escape from the predicament.
Li Zhao took the opportunity to adjust the power of the purification crystal again. He found that when the light of the purification crystal was combined with the causal power of the Anti-Time Blade, a unique fluctuation could be produced.
He tried to change the frequency of the fluctuations, hoping to find a way to restrain the black figure.
Just as the mysterious man was about to break through the ice shield, the purification crystal in Li Zhao's hand suddenly emitted a strange light, which seemed to contain an ancient power of order.
This power resonated with the power of the black figure in a mysterious way, but instead of fusion, they repelled each other.
The black figure felt this power and let out a terrified roar, and its body began to fluctuate unstably.
Seeing this, Li Zhao and the other two felt a fire of hope in their hearts.
They concentrated their strength. Li Zhao used all his strength to guide the power of the purification crystal, Su Mengyao used ice power to assist, and the spiritual messenger used the Eye of Samsara to stabilize the fluctuations of the purification crystal.
With the joint efforts of the three, the light of the purifying crystal became stronger and stronger, gradually suppressing the power of the black figure.
Just when it seemed the black figure was about to be defeated, it suddenly erupted with unprecedented power, breaking free from the purifying crystal light.
Its body began to change. Its originally huge size gradually shrank, but its aura became more terrifying.
Its eyes flashed with blood-red light, and its eyes were full of murderous intent as it looked at Li Zhao and the other two.
The black figure slowly spoke: "You think you can defeat me like this? You are too naive. Now, I will let you see my true power!"
After saying that, it quickly formed seals with its hands, and the surrounding space was instantly shrouded in a layer of black mist. Strange runes flickered in the mist, and each rune contained the power of destruction.
Li Zhao and the other two were surrounded by black fog, their vision was blocked, and the connection between them became blurred.
