Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

Qin Feng led Zhang Meng, Ye Li and Chu Tian to continue along the energy trajectory. As they gradually approached the target, the sense of oppression in the air became more and more obvious. The surrounding scene began to change. The originally relatively calm forest seemed to suddenly become gloomy, and the trees swayed as if an invisible hand was pushing them.

"I have a bad feeling." Ye Li said softly, her eyes fixed on the surrounding environment, the dagger in her hand ready to attack at any time.

Zhang Meng clenched the weapon in his hand. Although he still had his signature confident smile on his face, his nervousness was obvious: "Don't worry, Ye Li, I am here. You have to obey me no matter how strange the situation is!"

"Stop bragging." Chu Tian chuckled and teased, "Weren't you the first one to say this place was weird?"

"Hey, that's because I have a keen sense of smell!" Zhang Meng immediately retorted, "I just sensed the danger in advance."

Qin Feng did not join in their jokes, but stared at the instrument intently. His eyes became more serious: "We are very close, those mysterious people are just ahead, but they seem to be creating some complex energy fluctuations."

"Complex energy fluctuations?" Ye Li frowned slightly, "Are they trying to open another dimensional door?"

"It's very likely." Qin Feng nodded, "They seem to want to use these fluctuations to carry out some kind of larger-scale dimensional teleportation. If they succeed, we may face a greater threat."

"Okay," Zhang Meng slapped his weapon heavily, "Then let's not hesitate any longer, rush up and kill them!"

"Don't be impulsive." Qin Feng immediately stopped Zhang Meng, "We must act carefully. Energy fluctuations are very unstable, and a rash interruption may cause backlash."

Zhang Meng scratched his head and said unwillingly, "Then we can't just stand here and watch them do something, right?"

"That's right, we have to find the right time to intervene." Qin Feng pondered for a moment, then said, "But we can get closer first to see what they are doing."

Several people quietly approached the center of the energy fluctuations, and the scene in front of them gradually became clear - a small altar appeared in front of them, with flashing runes and energy fragments floating around, and several mysterious people in black cloaks standing in the center of the altar. They were surrounding a huge crystal column, chanting something, and seemed to be performing some complex ritual.

"They are indeed trying to teleport!" Ye Li whispered, with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.

"That's right, that crystal column is the key to dimensional teleportation." Qin Feng observed it carefully and said softly, "We must destroy it."

"Then I'll smash it!" Zhang Meng immediately clenched his weapon, his face full of fighting spirit.

"Zhang Meng, calm down." Qin Feng stretched out his hand to stop him. "They are numerous and have obviously made preparations. We can't act rashly. We need to have a plan."

"Plan?" Zhang Meng frowned. "Isn't it just rushing up and beating them up? What's so complicated about it!"

Chu Tian couldn't help but laugh: "This is not a simple melee. If we break the energy balance, it will cause the dimensional rift to expand further."

Qin Feng nodded: "That's right, we must find the weakness of the crystal column and destroy it accurately."

"Then you guys deal with the crystal, and I'll attract the attention of those in black cloaks." A gleam of light flashed in Zhang Meng's eyes, and it was obvious that he already had his own ideas.

"Are you sure?" Ye Li looked at Zhang Meng with some doubt, "Are you sure you can deal with so many mysterious people by yourself?"

Zhang Meng patted his chest and said confidently: "Hey, I'm Zhang Meng! Even if I can't win, at least I can hold them back for a while, giving you time to get the crystal!"

"He has a point." Chu Tian nodded in agreement, "Zhang Meng can attract their attention and create opportunities for us."

Qin Feng thought for a moment and finally agreed: "Okay, Zhang Meng, you are responsible for attracting their firepower, but don't be too aggressive. After we deal with the crystal, we will come to support you immediately."

"No problem!" Zhang Meng said with a relaxed look, then he tightened his grip on his weapon and quietly approached the mysterious men. He held his breath and took every step carefully until he was only a few meters away from the mysterious men.

Suddenly, Zhang Meng jumped out from behind the cover and yelled, "Hey! You guys in black cloaks, do you dare to fight me in a one-on-one duel!"

This roar was like a bomb. All the mysterious people present turned their heads and stared at Zhang Meng. They obviously did not expect such a sudden harassment, and their eyes under the masks were full of shock.

"It's you!" Zhang Meng brandished his weapon with great momentum, "Come on, I can take on all of you by myself!"

Several mysterious men looked at each other, then quickly surrounded Zhang Meng, with weapons in their hands flashing coldly. It was obvious that they were very dissatisfied with Zhang Meng's provocation.

"That's good. Zhang Meng has successfully attracted their attention." Chu Tian said in a low voice and quickly prepared for action.

"We have to take this opportunity to destroy the crystal." Qin Feng clenched the tools in his hands and led Ye Li and Chu Tian towards the crystal column in the center of the altar.

At the same time, Zhang Meng had already been confronted with several mysterious men. Although he was facing a large number of enemies, his attack was still full of power and courage. He kept waving his weapons and shouted provocatively: "Is that all you can do? You dare to create a dimensional gate? You are really overestimating yourself!"

A mysterious man stabbed at Zhang Meng, but Zhang Meng quickly dodged and knocked the opponent's weapon to the ground with a punch, and took the opportunity to fight back. Although the opponent had a large number of people, Zhang Meng still relied on his agility and strong strength to deal with them.

"Do you think I, Zhang Meng, am easy to bully?" Zhang Meng shouted, and hit the other mysterious man hard, causing him to stagger back. "Come on, a few more!"

Although he was full of vigor, it was obvious that several mysterious people were gradually forcing him into a circle. While Zhang Meng was struggling to resist, he secretly complained in his heart: "I am really in big trouble this time."

At the same time, Qin Feng, Ye Li and Chu Tian had already approached the crystal column. Qin Feng quickly checked the structure of the crystal and found that its core was emitting strong energy fluctuations.

"The core is here." Qin Feng whispered, "As long as we attack several key points at the same time, we can make this crystal lose its energy supply."

Ye Li and Chu Tian nodded immediately, prepared their weapons, and waited for Qin Feng's instructions.

"Okay, get ready!" Qin Feng gave an order, and several people attacked at the same time, accurately hitting several key positions of the crystal column. With several fierce attacks, the crystal column began to emit a harsh buzzing sound, and then obvious cracks appeared.

"It works!" Chu Tian shouted, and saw the energy light of the crystal column gradually dim.

But at this moment, the mysterious people on the altar seemed to notice something was wrong. They immediately turned around and discovered the actions of Qin Feng and others. The mysterious person in the lead sneered: "Stupid guy, do you think you can stop us like this?"

He waved the staff in his hand, and instantly sent out a powerful energy wave, rushing straight towards Qin Feng and others. Qin Feng reacted immediately and quickly dodged the energy attack.

"They discovered us!" Ye Li said calmly, with a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

"Keep attacking the crystal! We can't let them succeed!" Qin Feng said firmly, and then launched another attack, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at the crack of the crystal column.

At the same time, Zhang Meng saw that the mysterious man had distracted his attention, and he immediately yelled, "Hey! Don't worry about them, take care of me first!"

He suddenly exerted force and swung his weapon directly at the two mysterious men. Although he was surrounded, he still tried his best to temporarily repel them.
