Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

At the same time, Lin Ze used this powerful force to rush towards the old man at an astonishing speed, like an arrow shot from a bow. His speed was as fast as lightning, and he was in front of the old man in the blink of an eye.

The old man obviously had not expected that Lin Ze would launch such a swift counterattack. His face turned pale as paper in an instant, completely bloodless, and his already cloudy eyes flashed with a hint of fear that was difficult to conceal.

He secretly cried out in his heart that something was wrong, and hurriedly raised his two slightly trembling hands, trying to resist Lin Ze's fierce attack. However, it was too late!

The long sword in Lin Ze's hand was flashing a dazzling golden light, as if it was condensed from the sun's light. The light was so bright that the surrounding air seemed to be slightly distorted by it.

The power contained in this sword is unparalleled, as if it is not just a weapon, but an enraged lion, opening its bloody mouth, ready to tear the enemy in front of it into pieces.

Lin Ze mercilessly swung the sword in his hand and stabbed the old man with the force of thunder. This sword was as fast as lightning and as powerful as a bamboo, as if it was going to tear the whole world apart. Its power was so great that it was simply astonishing!

Facing such a fierce attack, the old man tried his best to defend himself, but his strength was still inferior. With a crisp sound of "chi", Lin Ze's sword easily cut through the old man's clothes like cutting tofu, leaving a deep scar on his body.

Blood immediately gushed out from the wound, staining the old man's clothes red. He groaned and his body involuntarily stepped back a few steps. It was obvious that the sword had caused him considerable damage.

Seeing this, Lin Ze naturally would not miss this great opportunity. He immediately took advantage of the victory and pursued the old man with the long sword in his hand. Each sword contained endless power, as fierce as a storm, leaving the old man no time to breathe.

In this chaotic and fierce battle, Lin Ze's determination was extremely firm - he must defeat the old man in front of him in one fell swoop, break through the encirclement, and never let himself fall into despair!

Just when Lin Ze's attack was at its most fierce, the old man suddenly shouted and took out a bead emitting a strange blue light from his arms.

The bead shone brightly, and a powerful suction force came from it, which actually caused Lin Ze's sword to stagnate slightly.

Lin Ze's heart suddenly tightened, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. However, his reaction speed was still a little slow. Before he could make any response, the old man quickly put his hands together like a ghost, forming a complex and mysterious hand seal.

In an instant, a dark black curtain of light suddenly rose in front of Lin Ze like a huge wall. This curtain of light seemed to emerge from the endless darkness, with countless black shadows surging in it. They shuttled through the curtain of light like ghosts, making waves of creepy screams.

These shadows seemed to have some strange power. They constantly eroded Lin Ze's strength, making him feel that his body was becoming heavier and heavier, as if a heavy burden was pressing on him. Lin Ze gritted his teeth and desperately circulated his spiritual power to resist the erosion of these shadows.

However, the power of these shadows was too strong, and Lin Ze's resistance seemed a little powerless. Just when he felt that he was about to collapse, suddenly, a familiar breath attacked from behind him.

Lin Ze was delighted, he turned his head and saw his good friend Lin Yu holding a spear, standing majestically behind him like a god of war. Lin Yu's face revealed a resolute and courageous look, he shouted, and the spear in his hand pierced through the black light curtain like lightning.

Seeing this, Lin Ze suddenly felt a surge of hope in his heart. He took the opportunity to use all his strength to break free from the black light curtain and stand side by side with Lin Yu. The two looked at each other, and they could feel each other's determination and courage.

Without any hesitation, Lin Ze and Lin Yu launched their attacks almost at the same moment. The long sword in Lin Ze's hand was like a dragon emerging from the sea, with a sharp sword aura, piercing straight at the old man. The long spear in Lin Yu's hand was like a whirlwind, rolling up gusts of wind, intertwined with Lin Ze's long sword, forming an unparalleled force.

This force swept towards the old man like a surging wave. Seeing this, the old man's face changed drastically. He obviously did not expect that Lin Ze and Lin Yu were so powerful. He wanted to turn around and run away, but it was too late. The powerful force was like a tidal wave, instantly submerging him.

With a scream, the old man finally couldn't hold on any longer and was knocked away by the force. He fell heavily to the ground and there was no movement anymore.

Lin Ze and Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the crisis was over. But at this moment, the old man who fell to the ground smiled strangely, and his body turned into a ball of black mist and dissipated. Then, the ground around them cracked, and countless black shadows emerged from it, surrounding the two of them. These black shadows bared their fangs and claws, exuding a chilling aura.

Lin Ze held his sword tightly, and Lin Yu also tightened his spear, looking around vigilantly. Suddenly, the shadows attacked together, rushing in like a tide. Lin Ze and Lin Yu stood back to back, waving their weapons and trying their best to resist.

In the fierce battle, Lin Ze keenly realized that these shadows were not fighting alone, but seemed to have some kind of close connection with each other, as if they were a whole. A thought suddenly flashed through his mind, like lightning across the night sky, and he immediately shouted to Lin Yu: "Attack their connection point!"

Lin Yu understood, and the two looked at each other and reached a tacit understanding in an instant. They cooperated closely, as if they had telepathy, and attacked at the same time. The sword in Lin Ze's hand flashed like a meteor across the sky, while Lin Yu's spear was like a dragon out of the sea, majestic and imposing.

The sword light and the spear light intertwined in the air, making a crisp collision sound and sparks flying. This blow was like a thunderbolt, ruthlessly severing the connection between the black shadows.

The black shadows that lost contact suddenly fell into chaos. They ran around like headless flies. Seeing this, Lin Ze and Lin Yu seized this opportunity without hesitation, and broke out of the encirclement of the black shadows as fast as lightning.

Their attacks were as fierce as a storm, not giving the black shadows any chance to breathe. Every sword and every gun contained endless power, and the black shadows dissipated under their attacks.

As time went by, the number of black shadows became fewer and fewer, and finally they were all wiped out. The surroundings finally returned to calm, but Lin Ze and Lin Yu did not feel relieved.

They knew that although they had won this battle, it might just be the beginning. In this mysterious area, there were more unknown dangers and powerful enemies. Those enemies might be hiding in the dark, watching their every move, waiting for the next opportunity to strike...
