The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

The black-robed man did not move. He looked at Lei Duzhu's actions, a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of amusement: "You don't know your own limitations..."

As soon as the man in black robe finished speaking, a dozen or so men in black around him pounced towards the protagonists like ghosts.

Their movements were strange and their attacks were brutal, with each strike going straight to the vital points.

Although Captain Lei was brave, he gradually felt the strain due to the disparity in numbers and strength.

The man in white, Xiaohong and Ms. Mo stood back to back, forming a defensive formation to resist the attack of the man in black.

The clanging sound of weapons clashing, like dense drum beats, struck everyone's nerves.

The attacks of the men in black were like a violent storm, and the protagonists gradually fell into a disadvantage.

In order to protect Xiaohong, Ms. Mo was stabbed in the shoulder by a sharp sword and fell to the ground with a groan.

Seeing this, Xiaohong was filled with grief and anger, and swung the silver whip in her hand even more vigorously, but this also exposed a flaw. The man in black hit her in the chest and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

The man in white watched Xiaohong fall down, roared angrily, his eyes bloodshot, like a wounded beast.

"Xiaohong!" The man in white hugged Xiaohong and tremblingly checked her breath. Fortunately, she was still breathing.

He gently put Xiao Hong on the ground and turned to look at the man in black robe.

"You all deserve to die!" The man in white spoke in a low voice, like a devil from hell.

He, Captain Lei, and Master Xing formed a triangle formation and fought back with all their might.

Master Xing sprinkled special powder at the men in black. The powder burned quickly when it came into contact with the air, forming a sea of ​​fire, which blocked the attack of the men in black.

Captain Lei seized the opportunity, wielding his two axes and knocking down several men in black.

The man in white was like a flash of lightning, shuttling between the men in black, and every swing of the sword in his hand took a life.

However, the man in black robe stood on the top of the tower, watching everything coldly.

There was always a sneer on the corner of his mouth, as if everything was under his control.

He exuded a powerful aura that made the protagonists feel suffocated.

Even if the three men in white fought back with all their might, they could not shake the man in black at all.

Xiaohong endured the pain, took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, and sprinkled the powder inside to the man in white.

The medicinal powder gave off a refreshing fragrance, which instantly refreshed the man in white and relieved a lot of the pain in his body.

She weakly called out, "Bai Yi, be careful!"

The man in black robe watched all this. He slowly raised his right hand, and a black energy condensed in his hand, forming a black energy ball.

"Let's end the game!" the man in black robe said coldly.

He threw the energy ball in his hand towards the protagonists. The energy ball drew a black track in the air, carrying a destructive aura.

"No..." Xiaohong looked at the oncoming energy ball and closed her eyes in despair.

"Prepare to die!" the man in black robe laughed wildly.

The man in white looked at the incoming energy ball.

The wind was howling, and a black energy ball, carrying a breath of destruction, pressed forward in an instant.

The man in white clenched his teeth, his blood vessels dilated, and an unprecedented force erupted like a volcano.

He roared and swung his sword, and a dazzling light burst out from the sword. This light did not come from the blade, but from the endless fighting spirit and belief in protection in his body.

He concentrated everyone's faith on the tip of his sword and struck out with all his might.

"boom--!"

With a deafening bang, the sword light and the energy ball collided fiercely, making a sharp explosion, like the collapse of the sky and the splitting of the earth.

The black energy was torn apart by the sword light, scattered in all directions, and dissipated into wisps of black smoke.

The sword's force continued to surge towards the top of the tower.

The black-robed man's face changed drastically. He felt the power of this force and could only raise his arms to resist in a hurry.

"puff--!"

The sword struck his chest hard, penetrating his defense, causing blood to spurt out.

The black-robed man's body shook violently, and he fell backwards, hitting the ground heavily with a dull thud.

Upon seeing this, the men in black around him suddenly became chaotic and fell to the ground one after another.

The situation on the battle was reversed in an instant. The morale of the protagonist group, which was originally at a disadvantage, was greatly boosted. They roared continuously and defeated the remaining men in black in one fell swoop.

Cheers of victory echoed from the ruined tower.

Captain Lei was the first to rush to where the black-robed man fell, spat on his body, and let out a deafening laugh.

Ms. Mo leaned on her sword with a proud smile on her face.

Master Xing was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes and he kept wiping away his tears.

The man in white picked up Xiaohong, and after making sure that she was safe, he held her tightly in his arms.

The two hugged each other tightly, feeling each other's heartbeat, the joy of surviving the disaster and their deep affection for each other.

Xiaohong snuggled in the arms of the man in white, feeling his warmth, her eyes full of happiness and peace of mind.

They checked the tower and found a secret room filled with gold, silver, jewelry and various precious medicinal herbs.

The victory in this battle not only allowed them to defeat the enemy, but also gained huge wealth, and their strength achieved a qualitative leap.

Miss Mo and Captain Lei supported each other and laughed loudly. Their laughter was filled with gratitude for surviving the disaster and their deep friendship with each other.

Master Xing looked at everyone excitedly and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. This battle made him cherish the relationship with his partners even more and feel the preciousness of their friendship.

As the sun sets, the blood-red setting sun illuminates the determined faces of the people. They embark on a new journey with the joy of victory and great strength.

In the distance is a beautiful world full of unknowns, waiting for them to explore.

"Where are we going next?" Captain Lei's eyes were burning. He turned to look at the man in white, only to see that the man in white had a frown on his face and his fingers were gently stroking an ancient token in his hand.

The sun rises, and the golden sunlight shines on the sparkling sea. The seagulls chirp happily, as if blessing them.

In the distance, the sea and the sky are one color, boundless and full of unknown adventures and treasures.

"This time we must find the legendary Penglai Island!" Master Xing waved his arms excitedly, his face filled with longing for the future.

"That's right. With the harvest from last time, we will definitely return with a full load this time!" Captain Lei laughed heroically and patted Master Xing on the shoulder.

Lady Mo held the sword in her hand, staring into the distance with a determined gaze, and said, "This journey will definitely be even more thrilling. I can't wait!"

Xiaohong snuggled up to the man in white, smiling gently. The man in white gently held Xiaohong's hand with a deep gaze. He secretly decided in his heart to protect her and go through all the adventures together.

The sea breeze blows gently, bringing a faint salty smell, and the waves gently hit the hull of the boat, making a rhythmic "rustling" sound. Everything seems so peaceful and harmonious.

However, beneath this seemingly calm sea, unknown dangers are hidden.

As time went by, people gradually relaxed their vigilance and immersed themselves in beautiful visions of the future.

Suddenly, a dilapidated fishing boat appeared in front of us, with a black flag flying on it, fluttering in the sea breeze.

"Oh no, it's pirates!" Captain Lei's face changed and he immediately became alert.

The fishing boat was approaching them rapidly, and a group of ferocious pirates jumped off the boat, holding swords and blocking their way.

"I opened this mountain and planted these trees. If you want to pass by here, you have to leave some money for passage!" shouted the leading one-eyed pirate arrogantly.

"How dare you rob people in broad daylight? You are so bold!" Captain Lei shouted angrily and took a step forward.

"Wow, you're quite tough! Brothers, come on!" The one-eyed pirate sneered and swung the scimitar in his hand, slashing at Master Lei.

The flash of swords and the murderous aura...

The pirates rushed forward like wolves and tigers, waving their swords and attacking the protagonists.

The blade cut through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, which intertwined with the sound of waves hitting the side of the ship, forming a terrifying symphony.

Captain Lei was the first to bear the brunt of the attack, swinging the giant axe in his hand and fighting with the pirates. The axe was wrapped in strong winds, and every swing could force the pirates in front of him to retreat a few steps, but the pirates were numerous and kept coming one after another, so Captain Lei was unable to resist for a while.

Ms. Mo held a long sword in her hand, her figure as fast as lightning, moving through the crowd, the sword flashing, and every move she made could bring about a trace of blood and rain.

However, the pirates were no ordinary people. They cooperated well and launched continuous attacks.

Suddenly, a pirate seized the opportunity and slashed Ms. Mo on the shoulder with a knife, and the blood instantly dyed her clothes red.

When everyone saw this, their faces changed drastically and their worry was evident in their words.

Xiaohong screamed and tried to rush over, but was stopped by the man in white.

She looked at Ms. Mo's painful expression, her heart filled with anxiety and anger.

At the same time, Master Xing was surrounded by several pirates. He was so frightened that his face turned pale, his legs trembled, and the folding fan in his hand was lost somewhere.

He was unarmed and could only dodge the pirates' attacks in vain. He kept screaming in fear and his body kept backing away, as if he wanted to get away from these evil monsters in front of him.

Seeing this, the man in white roared and rushed towards the pirates like an arrow.

The long sword in his hand was flying, and the sword energy was everywhere. Wherever it went, the pirates fell to the ground one after another.

However, the pirates were very cunning. They did not engage the men in white head-on. Instead, they dispersed and attacked from different directions, trying to consume the men in white's physical strength.

The man in white tried to block left and right, but the pirates were like leeches on his heels, making it difficult for him to get rid of them.

During the fierce battle, the man in white seized an opportunity and stabbed a pirate in the chest with a sword, causing blood to gushed out, but his back was also exposed, and a pirate swung a scimitar and slashed at his back.

At this critical moment, Xiaohong screamed, and the silver needle in her hand flew out and went straight to the pirate's throat.

The pirate was caught off guard, his body stiffened, and the scimitar in his hand fell to the ground.

Ms. Mo took the opportunity to slash at the pirate with her sword, killing him.

The two stood back to back, cooperating with each other to resist wave after wave of attacks from the pirates. Their faces were stained with blood, making them look even more heroic.

Seeing this, the pirates attacked more fiercely. They roared and waved their swords, trying to defeat the protagonists completely.

The battle was in a stalemate, both sides were bloodthirsty, and the smell of blood filled the air, making people sick.

Suddenly, the man in white noticed that under the light of the fire, the face of one of the pirates turned pale, as if he had an inexplicable fear of the fire.

His heart moved and a plan came to his mind.

"Everyone step back!" the man in white shouted to everyone.

The man in white protected Xiaohong behind him, staring straight ahead with a sharp gaze.

Xiaohong felt his solid back and felt safe. She looked up at the man in white. The corners of his mouth rose slightly and he gave her a reassuring smile. Then he suddenly raised the torch in his hand high up. The flame instantly swallowed the torch, bursting into a dazzling light, illuminating the resolute face of the man in white.

"Ah!" A terrified scream cut through the sky. It turned out that the one-eyed pirate leader saw the fire and his face turned pale as paper. The scimitar in his hand fell to the ground and he retreated uncontrollably.
"Haha, turns out to be a coward! Brothers, kill him!" When Captain Lei saw this scene, his morale was immediately boosted. He swung the giant axe in his hand more vigorously, chopping down the pirates in front of him and forcing them to retreat step by step.

Miss Mo also took the opportunity to swing her sword and forced several pirates to retreat, then she joked to Captain Lei: "Old Lei, it seems that our brothers in white are the real heroes!" Captain Lei laughed heartily and responded: "Of course, don't you see whose brothers they are!"

When the other pirates saw how miserable their leader was, their morale dropped and they began to flee in all directions, looking as miserable as dogs that had lost their homes.

Master Xing survived the disaster, and looking at the heroic figures of the crowd, his gratitude was beyond words. He quickly picked up the folding fan on the ground, walked to Miss Mo and Captain Lei, and kept expressing his gratitude.

As the sun sets, the sea surface is dyed golden red, and the sea breeze is still blowing gently, as if the battle just now was just an illusion.

The surviving protagonists, after a short rest, set sail again to continue their adventure.

After a fierce battle, their friendship deepened, their relationship became closer, and they were more looking forward to future challenges.

However, when their ship reached a sea area, they found a mysterious gate in front of them.

The door was towering into the clouds, and its entire body was a strange black color. It was engraved with dense and strange runes, and it emitted a dim light, as if it contained some kind of mysterious power.

The protagonists slowly approached and looked at the mysterious door in front of them, and they couldn't help but hold their breath.

The runes on the door are like living creatures, constantly wriggling, as if telling an ancient and mysterious story.

The mysterious gate stands on the sparkling sea, like a toy left behind by an ancient giant.

The densely packed runes on the door twisted like tadpoles, flashing faint light, attracting the attention of the protagonists.

"Do the runes on this door look like they are dancing?" Xiaohong tilted her head curiously and reached out to touch them.

The man in white grabbed her and carefully observed the surroundings, "Be careful, this place is full of weirdness."

Ms. Mo laughed heartily, "What are you afraid of! We've even defeated the pirates, so why should we be afraid of these weird runes?" After that, she walked straight to the gate and reached out to touch the cold runes.

A strange energy wave came from her fingertips, making her shiver.

Leader Lei also came forward and observed the runes carefully.

"This thing looks like some ancient writing. Maybe it's a clue to some treasure!" He rubbed his hands excitedly.

Although Mr. Xing was timid, curiosity drove him to approach the gate.

"Could it be a magic weapon left by a god?" He muttered softly, carefully extending his finger and lightly touching a rune.

Everyone originally thought that the runes would bring good luck, or at least find some clues.

However, the moment Master Xing touched the rune, something strange happened.

"Om-"

A low humming sound was heard, and the runes on the door suddenly burst into dazzling light, like millions of fireflies lighting up at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful force surged out from the gate, enveloping the protagonists.

"What's going on?!" Ms. Mo screamed and wanted to retreat, but found herself restrained by an invisible force and unable to move.

The tense atmosphere instantly spread.

Xiaohong clutched the arm of the man in white tightly, her face pale.

Captain Lei also stopped smiling and looked around vigilantly.

"This...what kind of restriction is this?" Master Xing was so frightened that his face turned blue. Trembling, he took out an ancient book from his arms and flipped through the rune patterns on it, trying to find a way to lift the restriction, but he had no idea.

With a light "click", the door slowly opened a crack...

From the gap in the door, an even more powerful force surged out, sweeping in like a tide.

The rune restriction released a dazzling light, trapping the protagonists tightly.

The invisible binding force became stronger and stronger. Everyone felt as if their chest was being pressed down by a huge rock, and breathing became difficult.

"Ah!" Ms. Mo screamed in pain. The power of the ban left blood marks on her body. Bright red blood seeped out and dyed her clothes red.

She gritted her teeth and endured the severe pain, but still could not break free from the restraints.

Seeing that Miss Mo was injured, everyone's heart was in their throat.

Xiaohong's face was pale and her breathing was rapid, as if she was about to faint at any moment.

The man in white held her tightly in his arms.
"Xiaohong, how are you?" the man in white asked in a low voice, with a hint of trembling in his voice.

Xiaohong shook her head and breathed with difficulty. It felt like a huge rock was pressing on her chest, making it hard for her to breathe.

"I...I'm fine..."

The man in white took a deep breath, gently pushed Xiaohong behind Master Lei, then rushed forward with both palms, trying to break the ban.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the attack of the man in white hit the restriction, but it was like a drop in the ocean, without any effect at all.

The power of the ban bounced back and knocked him back several steps.

The man in white groaned, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

He had multiple injuries on his body and his clothes were torn by the forbidden power, revealing shocking wounds.

The atmosphere of the battle was so tense that it was suffocating.

Captain Lei and Master Xing also took action to try to break the ban, but their attacks were equally ineffective.

"We can't go on like this!" Lei Duzhu panted heavily, his face solemn, "The power of this restriction is too strong, we can't break it at all!" (End of this chapter)
