Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

Chapter 583: Strange Portal

However, before they had gone far, a portal emitting a strange aura appeared in front of them.

From time to time, a faint light flickered inside the door, as if it was hiding endless secrets and dangers.

Lin Ze and Su Yao looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and decided to step into this unknown portal.

As soon as they stepped into this space, Lin Ze and Su Yao felt a strange atmosphere coming towards them. They seemed to be in another world in an instant, and everything around them seemed so strange and mysterious.

As far as the eye can see, the surrounding walls are densely engraved with all kinds of strange runes. Those runes are like ancient codes, flickering with faint light, adding a touch of mystery to the entire space.

However, this tranquility did not last long. Suddenly, the originally weak rune light suddenly became dazzling, like lightning piercing the darkness. Then, a shocking scene occurred - a group of monsters transformed by runes surged out from the wall!

These monsters have various shapes and are so bizarre that it is hard to take it all in. Some are huge, like giant spiders, with eight long hairy legs waving in the air, ferocious and terrifying; others are like long snakes, twisting and twisting, swimming flexibly, and spewing green venom from their mouths from time to time.

Faced with the sudden crisis, Lin Ze and Su Yao did not hesitate at all, and quickly grasped their weapons again, ready to fight. A fierce battle began...

The two men fought a desperate battle with the monsters, each swing and each piercing accompanied by sweat and roars. While the two sides were fighting fiercely, the mysterious jade pendant that had been quietly hanging on Lin Ze's chest suddenly shone brightly again.

The light seemed to have life, it automatically floated out and quickly merged into the weapons in their hands. In an instant, the weapons emitted a frightening cold light, and the blades became extremely sharp, as if they could cut through everything in the world.

With the power of the jade pendant, Lin Ze and Su Yao became stronger and stronger, and gradually gained the upper hand in the battle. They cooperated well, their moves became more and more fierce, and they defeated the ferocious monsters one by one.

Finally, when the last monster disappeared with a painful howl, an exit slowly emerged at the end of the portal. Lin Ze and Su Yao were exhausted at this time, but they still supported each other and walked towards the unknown exit step by step.

As for what kind of scene is hidden outside the exit? Is it a new challenge or an unexpected surprise? All of this is still unknown, waiting for them to uncover the mystery themselves...

When they stepped out of the exit, they saw a barren desert in front of them, and the scorching sun made the ground hot.

In the distance, an ancient castle stands on the sand dunes, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.

Just then, a low roar was heard, and a huge sand beast broke out of the sand. Its body was as big as a mountain, covered with hard scales, and its blood-red eyes were ferocious.

Lin Ze and Su Yao had just experienced a battle and their strength had not yet recovered, but facing this new threat, they could only hold on and fight again.

Lin Ze was holding the weapon blessed by the mysterious jade pendant tightly in his hand, and he rushed towards the huge and ferocious sand beast in front of him like an arrow! His figure was as fast as lightning, and he rushed to the sand beast in an instant.

On the other side, Su Yao stood a little further away, her beautiful eyes fixed on the battlefield situation, always ready to find the best opportunity to give Lin Ze a powerful auxiliary attack.

In a flash, the sand beast suddenly swung its thick and sharp claws and swept across with lightning speed. The attack was so powerful that it brought up a cloud of sand and dust that covered the sky and the sun, as if it would submerge the entire world.

However, Lin Ze showed extraordinary agility and reaction speed. He flashed and dodged the fatal claw of the sand beast like a ghost. Then, while the sand beast's moves were old and its old strength was exhausted, the weapon in Lin Ze's hand turned into a cold light and quickly passed through the sand beast's hard body, leaving several deep scars, and blood gushed out from the wounds.

At this moment, Su Yao, who had been waiting for an opportunity, saw the opportunity. She raised her jade hand lightly, and the bowstring made a crisp "hum" sound. Several sharp arrows flashing with cold light flew out like meteors chasing the moon, rushing straight towards the eyes of the sand beast. Only a few dull sounds were heard, and the sharp arrows accurately hit the eyes of the sand beast.

The sand beast suffered such a heavy blow that it could not help but roar in pain. Its huge body began to twist and struggle frantically due to the severe pain, and a foul smell continued to spew out of its mouth, and the ground around it also shook violently.

Facing the furious sand beast, Lin Ze and Su Yao had no intention of retreating. The two worked closely together, one attacked head-on to attract the sand beast's attention, while the other went around to the side to launch a surprise attack. For a moment, the flashes of swords and shadows were intertwined, and the shouts of killing were deafening.

After a thrilling, arduous and fierce fight, Lin Ze and Su Yao finally succeeded in completely defeating this ferocious sand beast. At this moment, they were already covered in blood and exhausted, but their eyes still revealed determination and the joy of victory.

They supported each other and dragged their heavy feet slowly towards the ancient and mysterious castle not far away. Every step they took seemed particularly difficult. But despite this, their hearts were filled with infinite expectations and vague worries about the unknown things in the castle...

When they walked into the castle, a smell of decay hit them. The castle was dark, with only a few flickering torches on the wall emitting a faint light.

Suddenly, the ground began to shake, and a group of skeleton soldiers emerged from all directions, holding rusty weapons and making creepy noises.

Lin Ze and Su Yao clenched their weapons again, ready to fight.

Just as the battle was raging, a sinister laugh was heard from the second floor of the castle.

A black-robed wizard appeared at the railing. He waved his hands, and the skeleton soldiers' attacks became more fierce.

Lin Ze and Su Yao gradually couldn't stand it anymore.

At this time, the jade pendant on Lin Ze's chest began to glow again, and the light enveloped them, allowing their strength to be temporarily restored.

They seized the opportunity, Lin Ze rushed towards the black-robed wizard, and Su Yao supported him with a bow and arrow from behind.

Lin Ze rushed to the black-robed wizard and slashed at him with his sword.

The black-robed wizard used magic to resist, and the two sides fell into a stalemate.

Su Yao seized the opportunity and shot the wizard's arm with an arrow.

Lin Ze took advantage of the situation and attacked with all his strength, finally defeating the black-robed wizard. The skeleton soldiers also dissipated.

The door deep in the castle slowly opened. What was waiting for them inside? The two of them walked in slowly with a hint of nervousness and anticipation.
