Chapter 103 Dance of Shadows

Long Tian had been exploring the forest for hours. Many participants had found valuable items like hidden techniques and resources.

At this moment, he walked alongside five people he had met, three from the Xia family and three from the Long family, including himself.

"Are you sure about this rumor?" Long Feng asked, a hint of doubt in his voice as he glanced at a man in his twenties leading them.

Xia Xiao, the man, wore a confident smile. "Trust me. I received this information from a renowned oracle; it can't be wrong," he assured them.

While the others nodded in agreement, Long Tian couldn't shake off a feeling of unease.

Long Hui, one of his friends, noticed his expression. "Brother Tian, is everything alright?" he inquired.

"I have a bad feeling about this," Long Tian replied, his senses on high alert.

"Well, let's proceed cautiously. The six of us should be strong enough to handle three or four-star soul beasts," Long Hui suggested.

Long Tian simply nodded, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings as they followed Xia Xiao deeper into the forest. The chapters is up by N0vEI__bin

After some time, the group found themselves standing near the ruins of an ancient structure. The ruins were vast and clearly aged, dating back thousands of years.

As they explored the area, Xia Jun, one of their companions, discovered a shining object beneath the debris. He eagerly retrieved it.

His face lit up with excitement. "I've found a treasure!" he exclaimed, holding up a profound spiritual stone.

His find surprised the group. They were well aware of the stone's significance—it was a spiritual stone of a higher level than the usual high-level ones, with effects many times more potent.

"You're incredibly fortunate, Brother Jun. Your cultivation will soar with that stone," complimented Long Hui, acknowledging the rare find.

"It seems the rumors were true. These ruins might conceal many more valuable items," remarked one of the companions.

Xia Xiao chimed in, "Unfortunately, this place isn't the rumor I spoke of. But the fact that we've reached this point might indicate we're getting closer."

"Let's explore this area thoroughly first," suggested Long Jun, and the group agreed, dispersing to search for hidden treasures among the ruins.

Xia Xiao lunged forward, his sword aiming for one of the shadowy figures. Yet, the dark figure moved with unnatural speed, dodging the attack. Long Tian followed suit, his Uchigatana striking with lightning. However, the shadowy figure countered, using darkness to absorb the lightning, rendering Long Tian's attack ineffective.

Observing the struggle, Long Tian furrowed his brow. He glanced at his companions and found them grappling with their own shadowy opponents.

This time, Xia Xiao managed to pierce his sword into the shadowy figure. However, it felt like he was cutting through emptiness rather than flesh.

"What the hell?" he muttered in confusion. Suddenly, the shadow figure in front of him revealed two glowing red eyes, locking onto his.

He felt his strength ebbing away, leaving him paralyzed. His pupils gradually faded.

But in the next moment, a bolt of lightning struck him, causing pain but also snapping him back to awareness. He hastily retreated, putting distance between himself and the shadow.

He glanced to the side, meeting Long Tian's eyes. "Thanks," he said, appreciating Long Tian's intervention.

"Be more careful next time," Long Tian warned.

With a nod, Xia Xiao turned back to face the black shadow before him.

Long Tian, meanwhile, refocused on the shadow in front of him.

The shadow moved incredibly fast, attacking him with a black sword. Yet, he skillfully dodged its strikes.

Darkness coalesced in his hand, and seizing the opportunity, he thrust his hand into the shadow's body. The shadow seemed to be absorbed by the darkness in his hand.

A few seconds later, the shadow completely disappeared, absorbed by him.

"Heh, just as I suspected. They are made of darkness, a perfect feast for me," he said, a grin gracing his face.

Not only did he eliminate the shadow, but he also felt a surge in power from absorbing it.

Meanwhile, the man in the black robe was surprised; clearly, he didn't anticipate that Long Tian could absorb his shadow army. And at this moment, Long Tian's gaze was locked onto him.

Rumble!

Lightning struck from above, but he managed to evade it skillfully. And not just once, but repeatedly.

While evading the lightning strikes, he chanted a spell, and darkness enveloped him.

Following that, his body expanded, and powerful muscles emerged. His robe tore apart, unveiling a man around forty with a bald head and enigmatic black runes etched on his skin.

"Now, face me!" he declared, his voice echoing with power.
