Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

Chapter 561: Going Deep into the Core of the Island and Fighting the Mysterious Power

Chu Tian and his companions, along with the spirit masters of the Xingmang Clan, continued to move forward along the depths of the mysterious island. The surrounding environment became increasingly eerie and strange. The trees on both sides of the road twisted their branches, as if baring their fangs and claws to warn intruders.

"This place is getting more and more terrifying. It feels like walking into the mouth of a huge monster." Zhang Meng followed the giant rock bear closely, scanning the surroundings vigilantly.

Xiaohua hugged Xiaobai and whispered, "I'm a little scared, but with everyone here, I believe we can definitely find the source of the 'Soul Heart'."

Suddenly, a swamp emitting a faint glow appeared in front of them. Bubbles were rising from the swamp, and from time to time black tentacles stretched out from it and quickly retracted.

"This swamp looks very dangerous. Everyone should be careful where you step." Qin Feng warned.

The leader of the Star Tribe carefully observed the swamp and said, "I feel that there may be hidden mechanisms or traps in this swamp. Don't rush forward."

However, Zhang Meng's giant rock bear accidentally stepped on a piece of soft mud at the edge of the swamp, triggering the mechanism. There was only a "creaking" sound of machinery, and suddenly many black spikes shot out from the swamp.

"Be careful!" Chu Tian shouted and quickly flew into the air.

Ye Li let the frost fox release cold air to freeze the approaching spikes. The soul masters of the Xingmang tribe also used their soul power to transform into shields to resist the attack of the spikes.

However, the spike attacks came in waves and became more and more intensive.

"This is not a solution. We have to find a way to get through this swamp." Ye Li said anxiously.

At this moment, Chu Tian discovered that the dim light in the swamp seemed to flicker in a regular pattern. He carefully observed it in the air for a while and said, "I think I know how to get through. Look at the flickering of the dim light. If you follow this pattern, you should be able to avoid the attack of the spikes."

Following Chu Tian's instructions, they carefully moved forward on the swamp. Every step they took was timid, but fortunately they successfully crossed the swamp.

Continuing forward, they came to an old castle. The walls of the castle were covered with vines, the gate was closed, and it exuded an old smell.

"This castle seems to have existed for a long time. Could the source of the 'Soul Source Heart' be inside?" A soul master of the Xingmang clan asked curiously.

Chu Tian flew to the gate and tried to push it open, but the gate did not move at all.

"This door seems to be sealed by some force." Chu Tian said with a frown.

The leader of the Star Tribe stepped forward and carefully observed the runes on the gate: "These runes are very complicated. I have never seen such sealing runes."

Everyone began to study the runes on the gate together. After some effort, they found that they needed to inject specific soul power attributes into the runes in a certain order to open the gate.

"I have ice-attributed soul power. Let me try it first." Ye Li said.

She injected her ice-attributed soul power into a rune, and the rune flickered slightly. Then, Qin Feng injected his sword-attributed soul power into another rune, and then the others also injected runes according to their own soul power attributes.

When the last rune was injected with soul power, the door slowly opened with a dull sound.

The interior of the castle was dark and damp, filled with a foul smell. They walked along a long corridor, with some ancient portraits hanging on the walls on both sides. The characters in the portraits had empty eyes, as if they were watching their every move.

"These portraits look so scary." Xiaohua held Xiaobai tightly, her body trembling slightly.

Suddenly, the person in the portrait seemed to come alive, stretched out his hands from the frame, and grabbed everyone.

"Ah! What's going on?" Zhang Meng shouted in surprise.

Everyone dodged the portrait's attack. Chu Tian flew into the air and used his soul blade to cut off the outstretched arms. Zhang Meng asked the giant rock bear to hit the portrait with its paws. The soul masters of the Xingmang tribe used their soul power to transform into starlight and repel the characters in the portrait.

After some struggle, they finally got rid of the attack of the portrait and came to the hall of the castle. In the center of the hall was a huge circular pool filled with liquid emitting strange light, and in the center of the pool was a crystal ball shining with strong soul power fluctuations. That fluctuation was the source of power of the "Soul Source Heart".

"We finally found it!" Chu Tian said excitedly.

Just as they approached the pool, a powerful dark force surged in from all directions and enveloped them.

"Do you think you can obtain the power of the 'Soul Heart' so easily?" A deep and gloomy voice echoed in the hall.

The dark power gradually condensed into a huge dark figure. This figure was much more powerful than the dark messenger encountered before. The dark aura on him almost submerged the entire hall.

"Who are you?" Qin Feng asked vigilantly, holding the Dragon Shadow Sword.

The dark figure sneered: "I am the Lord of Darkness. This island and the power of the Soul Heart should belong to me. You ants dare to rob me."

Zhang Meng said angrily: "The power of this 'Soul Source Heart' belongs to the martial soul world, not your private property. We will not let you succeed."

The Lord of Darkness laughed loudly: "Just you? You are like fragile little bugs in front of me. You will all die here today, and I will absorb the power of the 'Soul Origin Heart' and become the master of this world."

After saying that, the Lord of Darkness launched an attack. He stretched out his hands, and the dark power turned into countless black chains, shooting towards everyone.

Chu Tian quickly flew into the air, dodging the attack of the black chain. He fired a soul blade at the Lord of Darkness in the air, but the soul blade was swallowed by the dark power when it touched the Lord of Darkness' body.

Ye Li and the Frost Fox released cold air, trying to freeze the Lord of Darkness, but the dark power in the Lord of Darkness was too strong, and the cold air was dispelled as soon as it approached.

Zhang Meng ordered the Giant Rock Bear to rush towards the Lord of Darkness. The Giant Rock Bear's huge force hit the Lord of Darkness, but the Lord of Darkness just shook slightly, and then kicked the Giant Rock Bear away.

The soul masters of the Star Mang Clan released their soul power one after another, and their soul power turned into starlight shields, trying to resist the attack of the Lord of Darkness. However, the black chains of the Lord of Darkness easily penetrated the starlight shields and hit several soul masters of the Star Mang Clan. They vomited blood and fell to the ground.

"Don't disperse your attacks. Let's concentrate our forces to attack one point on him." Qin Feng shouted loudly.

Everyone followed Qin Feng's command, gathered their soul power together, and attacked the head of the Lord of Darkness. The Lord of Darkness felt the powerful attack force, and he waved his hands, and the dark power formed a huge shield in front of him, blocking everyone's attack.

"Your attacks are too weak and can't hurt me at all." The Lord of Darkness said sarcastically.

Just when everyone was feeling a little frustrated, Xiaohua suddenly thought of a solution.

"We can utilize the power of this pool. The liquid inside emits a strange light, which may have a restraining effect on the Lord of Darkness." Xiaohua said.

Everyone thought Xiaohua’s idea made sense, so Chu Tian flew above the pool and tried to use his soul power to guide the liquid in the pool to attack the Lord of Darkness.

Under Chu Tian's guidance, the liquid in the pool turned into a beam of light and shot towards the Lord of Darkness. The Lord of Darkness saw the light coming and disdainfully blocked it with his dark shield.

However, when the light came into contact with the dark shield, the dark shield actually began to slowly melt.

"How is this possible?" the Dark Lord said in surprise.

Seeing this opportunity, everyone gathered their soul power together again and attacked the place where the Dark Lord's dark shield was melted.

The Dark Lord's shield was broken, he was attacked by everyone and his body took a few steps back.

"You guys actually managed to hurt me. But this will only allow you to live a little longer." The Lord of Darkness said angrily.

He began to cast more powerful dark magic, and the entire castle began to shake. The Dark Lord's body became larger, and his dark power became stronger.

"Everyone be careful, he is about to launch a stronger attack." Ye Li shouted.

The Lord of Darkness waved his hands, and the dark power turned into a huge black vortex, sweeping towards everyone. Wherever the black vortex went, everything was swallowed up.

"We can't be sucked into this vortex. Let's spread out and attack him from different directions." Qin Feng shouted.

Everyone dispersed and attacked the Lord of Darkness from different directions. Chu Tian continuously fired soul blades in the air, Ye Li and Frost Fox released cold air and ice spikes from one side, Zhang Meng let the giant rock bear rush towards the Lord of Darkness from another direction, and the soul masters of the Xingmang tribe also used their special soul skills to attack the Lord of Darkness.

Xiaohua and Xiaobai were looking for opportunities on the side. Xiaohua used her soul power to bless Xiaobai, and Xiaobai used his speed advantage to shuttle around the Lord of Darkness, releasing a ray of light from time to time to interfere with him.

With everyone's concerted efforts, the Dark Lord's black vortex attack was disrupted, and some flaws appeared on his body.

Qin Feng saw the right opportunity, holding the Dragon Shadow Sword, and rushed towards the Lord of Darkness. He avoided the Lord of Darkness's attack and stabbed the Lord of Darkness in the chest with a sword.

After being stabbed by the sword, the Lord of Darkness let out a scream of pain, his body began to flicker, and the power of darkness began to go out of control.

"Do you think you can defeat me like this? I will not be destroyed." The Lord of Darkness said viciously.

Just as the Lord of Darkness was about to launch the final attack, Chu Tian suddenly flew above the crystal ball of the "Soul Source Heart". He connected his soul power with the power of the crystal ball, and then shot this powerful force towards the Lord of Darkness.

This attack, which was fused with the power of the "Soul Source Heart", directly hit the Lord of Darkness. The Lord of Darkness let out an earth-shaking scream, and then his body gradually dissipated, and the power of darkness disappeared without a trace.

With the Dark Lord defeated, the castle stopped shaking and peace returned.

"We succeeded!" Zhang Meng shouted excitedly.

Everyone gathered around the crystal ball of "Soul Origin Heart" and felt this powerful and pure power.

"What should we do now?" Ye Li asked.

The leader of the Xingmang tribe thought for a while and said: "We can't let this power be abused. We should protect it and use it to protect the peace of the Wuhun world."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

So, they set up multiple seals in the castle to protect the source of power of the "Soul Heart". After completing all this, they left the mysterious island and returned to the world of martial arts with new missions and responsibilities.

They know that although they have defeated the Lord of Darkness, there are still various potential dangers in the Wuhun World. They will continue to travel the Wuhun World, spread the idea that the power of the "Soul Source Heart" needs to be protected, and constantly improve their own strength to cope with possible challenges in the future and protect the peace and tranquility of the Wuhun World.
