Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

Chapter 341 Lost in the Misty Forest

After successfully destroying the secret ritual of the Dark Cult, Qin Feng and his companions finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, their mission is far from over, and the crisis in the secret realm has only been temporarily alleviated. In order to completely eliminate the threat of the Dark Cult, Qin Feng and his companions must continue to go deeper into the secret realm and find those hidden dangers.

"It seems that our mission this time was completed smoothly." Chu Tian wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "I thought something more terrible would happen!"

Ye Li squinted her eyes: "Don't be too happy too soon, this is just the beginning. You forgot that we are still in the secret realm."

"That's right." Wang Yue nodded in agreement, "Dangers are everywhere in the secret realm. We can't take it lightly."

Qin Feng stood aside, looking around, thinking about what to do next. Ye Ying came over and whispered to him: "Qin Feng, although we interrupted their ceremony, I always feel that something is wrong here."

Qin Feng nodded: "I feel the same way. Since the Dark Cult has spent so much effort to get here, they can't give up so easily."

As they were talking, the spirit beast came over with a serious look on his face: "You must be careful. Although the ceremony has been interrupted, I feel that there is still an uneasy force deep in the secret realm."

"Deep in the secret realm?" Zhang Meng asked doubtfully, "Where is that?"

The spirit beast pointed to a dense forest in the distance: "It is called the 'Misty Forest'. According to legend, there are countless secrets and crises hidden deep in this forest. I suspect that the people of the Dark Cult may still be hiding there."

"Misty Forest?" Ye Li frowned. "It doesn't sound like a good place."

Yeying pondered for a while and said, "If the Dark Cult is still there, we must find them as soon as possible and not give them any chance to breathe."

Qin Feng looked at his companions and said firmly: "That's right, we can't let them have any chance to come back. Are you ready?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The group headed towards the misty forest. As they went deeper, the light around them gradually dimmed, and the fog around them became thicker and thicker, as if even the air had become sticky.

"This place is really uncomfortable." Chu Tian frowned and waved his hand to disperse the fog in front of him.

Ye Li tightened the Frost Fox in her hand, her eyes full of vigilance: "Everyone be careful, the fog here may not just be ordinary fog."

Wang Yue's Light Deer sensed something strange and cried softly. She frowned, "My Light Deer senses a dark force in the mist here that may confuse our minds."

"Then what should we do?" Zhang Meng asked nervously.

Ye Ying looked around and said in a deep voice: "Everyone must concentrate and not be affected by the environment here. Let's try to walk together and maintain formation."

Qin Feng nodded: "That's right, everyone follow closely and don't get separated."

They continued to move forward, the fog became thicker and thicker, and the vision became more and more blurred. Suddenly, Chu Tian felt that he had stepped on something, and when he looked down, he found that it was a broken wooden sign.

"What is this?" Chu Tian picked up the wooden sign with some unclear words on it. "It looks like a warning sign?"

Ye Li came over and took a look: "I can't see clearly what is written on it, but since someone put a warning sign here, it means there must be danger ahead."

Qin Feng frowned: "No matter what, we have to keep moving forward, but we must be careful."

They carefully bypassed the possible traps and obstacles and gradually went deeper into the heart of the misty forest. At this moment, some hazy shadows suddenly appeared in the mist, as if someone was swaying in the distance.

"What is that?" Wang Yue asked nervously.

Chu Tian took a closer look and his expression changed slightly: "Could it be someone from the Dark Sect?"

Qin Feng waved his hand to signal everyone to stop, and whispered: "I don't know, but we can't take risks. Everyone, prepare for defense."

As they approached, the shadows became clearer and clearer, and finally took shape. Qin Feng and his group could see clearly that the shadows were actually a group of strange spirit beasts. They looked like some kind of large cats, with thick scales covering their bodies and eyes emitting strange green light.

"These spirit beasts look so strange!" Zhang Meng said in a low voice.

"They seem to be controlled by some force." Ye Li added in a low voice, "There is an unnatural sense of emptiness in their eyes."

Qin Feng clenched the Dragon Shadow Sword and whispered, "Everyone be careful, these spirit beasts may suddenly attack."

As soon as he finished speaking, those spirit beasts suddenly let out a low roar and pounced towards Qin Feng and the others!

Battle with the Bewitched Beast

"Here it comes! Be careful everyone!" Qin Feng shouted.

Ye Li's frost fox took the lead and blew out a stream of frost, freezing several spirit beasts. However, these spirit beasts did not stop attacking, they struggled to break through the frost and continued to pounce forward.

"Why are these guys so difficult to deal with?" Chu Tian waved the Storm Wolf's Thunder Claw and repelled one spirit beast, but soon two more pounced on him.

"They don't seem to be afraid of pain!" Zhang Meng shouted, using a giant rock bear to block the attack of a spirit beast.

"They may have been completely controlled by the dark forces." Yeying analyzed, "We can't fight them head-on. We have to find the source that controls them."

Wang Yue used the healing aura of the Bright Deer to provide support to everyone, and shouted: "I think the power controlling them is nearby! We have to find the source!"

Qin Feng was fighting and looking around at the same time. Suddenly, he saw a strange rune stone hanging on a big tree in the distance. The stone exuded a faint dark aura.

"There!" Qin Feng pointed at the rune stone and shouted, "That stone is the key to controlling them!"

"I'll destroy it!" Ye Ying rushed to the tree quickly, nimbly avoiding the attacks of several spirit beasts. He jumped onto the tree trunk and stabbed the rune stone with a sword.

The rune stone cracked in response, and instantly made a low explosion sound, turning into ashes. Almost at the same time, the eyes of those spirit beasts gradually regained clarity, and they stopped attacking and looked around in confusion.

"Success!" Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Feng waved his hand, signaling everyone to relax their vigilance. He walked up to one of the spirit beasts and asked softly, "Are you all okay?"

The spirit beasts nodded, and one of them, who looked like the leader, whispered, "Thank you for saving us. We don't remember what happened, but we only remember that a dark force enveloped our consciousness."

Ye Li comforted her, "It's okay, you are safe now. We are also investigating what happened here."

Chu Tian looked at the big tree, frowning: "It seems that the influence of the Dark Sect is far deeper than we thought. These rune stones can actually control the consciousness of spirit beasts."

Ye Ying nodded: "Yes, this rune stone itself carries a powerful dark power, which can penetrate into the spiritual core of the spirit beast. We must find all the rune stones as soon as possible and completely eliminate their influence."

After the spirit beasts regained consciousness, they decided to take Qin Feng and his crew to a secret place to thank them for saving their lives.

"You saved us, and we know there is an ancient temple deep in the Misty Forest. There may be more clues about these rune stones hidden there." said the leading spirit beast.

Qin Feng and his group looked at each other, obviously full of interest. Ye Ying nodded: "Okay, take us to have a look."

They followed the spirit beast through the dense fog, going deeper and deeper. Soon, they came to an open area where stood a dilapidated old temple. The walls of the temple were covered with moss and vines, and it seemed that no one had been here for hundreds of years.

"This is the temple." The leading spirit beast whispered, "Legend has it that this was once the habitat of a powerful spirit beast, but it was later abandoned for some reason."

“Such a large place must be hiding a lot of secrets,” Zhang Meng said, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

Qin Feng carefully observed the entrance of the temple and found that there were also some ancient runes engraved on the door, which were somewhat similar to the runes he had seen in the dark sect stronghold before.

"It seems that the appearance of these runes here is not accidental." Ye Li analyzed, "Let's go in and take a look. We may find more clues."

They carefully pushed open the door of the temple and walked in. The interior of the temple was dark, with only a few faint lights coming through the broken ceiling. There were some broken stone statues and ancient altars scattered on the ground.

"Everyone search separately and be careful." Qin Feng said.

They began to search for clues in the temple. Wang Yue found some ancient books and scrolls in a corner, covered with strange symbols. Chu Tian found some carvings with runes on a stone tablet.

"These things seem to have been left behind a long time ago." Chu Tian said, "But I don't quite understand what is written on them."

Ye Ying came over and took a closer look at the runes. His expression became serious. “These runes record an ancient ritual. It seems to be related to the rune stone that controls spirit beasts.”

"It seems we have found the right place." Qin Feng said, "But we have to figure out the specific content of these rituals before we can completely solve the problem."

While they were discussing, Ye Li suddenly exclaimed: "Come and see, I found a hidden secret door!"

Everyone gathered around immediately and saw Ye Li standing next to a stone statue. Behind the statue was a hidden stone door that seemed to lead to deeper into the temple.

"Is there a trap down here?" Zhang Meng asked worriedly.

Yeying touched the stone door and speculated: "Maybe, but if we want to find the real answer, we have to go in and take a look."

Qin Feng nodded: "Everyone be careful, let's go in."

They carefully pushed open the secret door and walked down the narrow stairs. The stairs became deeper and deeper, and the air became colder and colder, as if leading to an unknown abyss.

When they finally reached the end of the stairs, the sight before them surprised everyone.

They were standing in a huge underground hall. In the center of the hall was a huge stone platform. On the stone platform was a huge dark crystal, emitting a faint black light. Several members of the dark sect were surrounding the crystal, busy arranging something.

"This is the real purpose of the Dark Cult!" Ye Ying whispered, "They want to absorb the power of the secret realm through this crystal."

"We have to stop them!" Qin Feng gripped the Dragon Shadow Sword tightly, his eyes determined.

Chu Tian nodded: "Then let's do it!"

Ye Li and Wang Yue were also ready for battle, while Zhang Meng clenched his fists, ready to charge.

Qin Feng waved his hand: "Action!"

They quickly rushed towards the members of the Dark Sect, and the battle broke out again. Ye Ying and Qin Feng worked in perfect harmony and quickly eliminated several black-robed men. Chu Tian and Ye Li were not to be outdone, and the power of the spirit beasts reverberated in this underground hall.

"Protect the crystal!" the leader of the dark sect shouted, but it was too late.

Qin Feng rushed to the stone platform, swung the Dragon Shadow Sword with all his strength, and slashed at the dark crystal. With a loud bang, the dark crystal shattered into countless fragments, and the members of the dark sect fell to the ground one after another, losing their combat effectiveness.

"We succeeded!" Zhang Meng shouted excitedly.

However, Yeying did not relax. He stared at the shattered crystal and whispered, "No, this is just the beginning. The real danger may still be behind."

Qin Feng and his companions also realized this. They knew that the battle was far from over.
