Chapter 205 Evil Forces
Just as they were fighting fiercely with the statue, the water in the fountain began to churn, and some wet monsters crawled out of the water.
These monsters had slimy bodies, huge mouths and sharp teeth. They crawled towards Xiao Yichen and Lan Yunyan.
"Be careful!" Xiao Yichen shouted. He rushed forward and killed a demon beast that was about to pounce on Lan Yunyan with a single sword strike.
Green goo splattered all over him, emitting a sickening smell.
Lan Yunyan was not to be outdone. She wielded her whip nimbly, repelling the approaching monsters one after another.
However, as the number of monsters increased, they gradually fell into a difficult battle.
"We have to find a way to destroy the fountain. These monsters seem to come out of the fountain." Xiao Yichen said.
They began to approach the fountain, engaging in fierce battles with statues and monsters along the way. Xiao Yichen already had multiple scratches on his body, and Lan Yunyan's physical strength was gradually depleting, but their eyes remained firm.
Finally, they reached the edge of the fountain. Xiao Yichen plunged his lightsaber into the fountain, muttering something. A powerful light emanated from the lightsaber, and the black water began to churn violently, as if in resistance.
Lan Yunyan used a long whip to attack the supporting structure around the fountain, trying to destroy it.
Under their attack, cracks began to appear in the fountain and the movements of the monsters became slow.
With a loud bang, the fountain collapsed and black water flowed everywhere. The monsters struggled in the water for a few times and then disappeared without a trace.
The statues seemed to have lost their power, stopped attacking, and returned to their original appearance.
"Let's move on." Xiao Yichen and Lan Yunyan walked through the hall and came to a long corridor.
There are ancient scrolls hanging on the walls of the corridor. The contents of the scrolls seem to be the history of the castle, but the pictures are a bit blurry and difficult to see clearly.
As they walked along the corridor, they suddenly heard a melodious sound of music, which seemed to have some kind of magical power, making people's consciousness gradually become blurred.
Xiao Yichen and Lan Yunyan felt their bodies becoming heavier and heavier, as if they were bound by an invisible force.
"There's something wrong with this music. We can't be affected by it." Xiao Yichen said gritting his teeth.
He concentrated his mind, trying to resist the magic of the music. Lan Yunyan also closed her eyes, using her inner strength to resist the erosion of the music.
With their efforts, they gradually got rid of the control of the music. They followed the source of the music and found a beautiful woman playing a guqin in a room.
The woman's face was absolutely beautiful, but there was a hint of weirdness in her eyes.
"You are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time." The woman stopped playing and said with a smile.
"Who are you? Why did you lead us here?" Xiao Yichen asked.
"I am the guardian of this castle and also the soul imprisoned here. Only you can help me free it," said the woman.
"Why should we trust you?" Lan Yunyan looked at the woman warily.
"If you don't help me, you will never be able to leave here, and the evil power in the castle will become stronger and stronger and will eventually destroy everything." There was a hint of despair in the woman's eyes.
Xiao Yichen and Lan Yunyan looked at each other. They didn't know whether they should believe this woman, but the current situation left them with no choice.
"How can we help you?" Xiao Yichen asked.
The woman pointed to a treasure chest in the corner of the room, "Open that chest. Inside is my soul contract. Destroy it and I will be free."
Xiao Yichen walked towards the treasure chest. When his hand touched the treasure chest, a strong electric current ran through his body. He endured the pain and opened the treasure chest with force.
Inside was a glowing parchment covered in strange symbols.
Just as Xiao Yichen was about to destroy the parchment, the woman suddenly revealed a ferocious smile.
"You've been fooled. Now you will all become my sacrifice!"
Runes appeared on the surrounding walls, emitting powerful power, trapping Xiao Yichen and Lan Yunyan in the room.
"Damn it!" Xiao Yichen tried to destroy the rune with his sword, but the rune's power was too strong. Lan Yunyan also attacked the rune with a long whip, but to no avail.
"You can't escape, hahahaha." The woman laughed crazily.
Just when they were in desperate situation, Xiao Yichen suddenly discovered that the symbols on the parchment were similar to the ancient runes on the stone gate.
He began to carefully study the symbols on the parchment, trying to find a way to decipher the runes.
After some effort, Xiao Yichen discovered the pattern of the symbols. He drew the corresponding symbols on the wall of the room in a specific order, and the power of the runes gradually weakened.
"Now!" Xiao Yichen and Lan Yunyan attacked simultaneously, breaking free from the runes. They rushed towards the woman, who panicked and tried to escape.
Xiao Yichen stabbed the woman with his sword, and her body turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared. It turned out that she was just an illusion, and the real evil power was still hidden in the depths of the castle.
"We can't give up. We must find the source of the evil power." Xiao Yichen and Lan Yunyan continued to go deeper into the castle. They knew that only by completely eliminating the evil power could they truly escape danger.
They traveled through the castle, encountered various traps and monsters, but overcame them one by one.
Finally, they came to the basement of the castle. There was a huge magic circle in the basement. A huge black sphere was sealed in the magic circle. The black sphere exuded a powerful evil aura.
"This is the source of the evil power, we must destroy it." Xiao Yichen and Lan Yunyan launched their strongest attack and attacked the black sphere.
The lightsaber and whip came into contact with the black sphere, releasing a powerful energy wave.
After a fierce battle, they finally succeeded in destroying the black sphere, and the evil force was completely eliminated. The castle began to shake violently, as if it was about to collapse.
Xiao Yichen and Lan Yunyan quickly fled the castle. When they walked out of the castle, the castle collapsed behind them and turned into ruins.
