Alliance: Start Suona, send away the stupid sister Zhou

When they appeared in front of the Red Mage again, the situation had changed quietly.

"Hey! Have you had enough fun, big guys?" Lin Feng laughed and mocked, deliberately pretending to be nonchalant in order to provoke the other party to expose their weaknesses, "I think you are just bluffing, you don't have much ability at all~"

Sure enough, these words successfully aroused the leader's emotions and exposed his flaws. "How dare you, ignorant fools, look down on me like this? Wait for your punishment!" As the roar sounded, the plants that were originally sleeping around suddenly woke up as if they had self-awareness and began to stretch and spread to form a huge green cage, trying to restrain everyone and prevent them from moving...

"Oh no! This range skill is too dangerous. We must get out of the control area as soon as possible!" Lily realized the seriousness of the situation and quickly reminded her companions to prepare for the next more severe test. At the same time, she secretly mobilized every potential in her body to maximize the effect...

However, at this critical moment, a soft white light suddenly shone and dispelled all the darkness. In the light, a fairy-like figure with a stunning appearance and an otherworldly temperament could be seen slowly descending. "Children, please don't worry too much. As long as I am here, everything will be fine..."

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked and confused: Who is this person who suddenly comes to help us get through the difficulties?
"You are..." Lin Feng asked with his eyes wide open, but before he could finish his words he was interrupted by the goddess with a smile.

"My name is not important. What is important is that justice will eventually triumph over evil. Now, what you need to do is to cheer up and follow my guidance to protect this sacred place together. Come with me. Time is running out and we still have a lot to do."

As she spoke, she turned and walked forward, leaving behind a moonlit path that seemed to lead to an unknown but hopeful direction.

Lin Feng and the others followed the mysterious woman's footsteps, and saw her moving lightly under the moonlight, and every step seemed to be in the void. The surrounding environment gradually changed, from the previous dark forest to a more ancient and mysterious place.

"What on earth is this place?" Chen Le asked in a low voice, his eyes flashing with vigilance and curiosity.

"This is the deepest part of the world of immortal cultivation, known as the 'Illusionary Moon Realm'," the woman's voice was clear and powerful, "There are many unsolved mysteries hidden here."

Suddenly, they stopped. The scene before them made everyone hold their breath - a quiet lake like a mirror, sparkling in the moonlight; surrounded by meadows full of exotic flowers, the air was filled with a light fragrance. But behind this beauty, there seemed to be some dangerous atmosphere hidden...

"The secret we need to find is hidden under this lake." The woman turned to look at everyone, her expression becoming very solemn. "But you must be prepared, because what you are about to face will be an unprecedented test."

At this moment, ripples suddenly appeared in the center of the lake, and a huge black tentacle suddenly stretched out of the water! Then, a hideous monster covered with green scales slowly emerged from the water. Its eyes were like two bottomless black holes, emitting a chilling aura.

"Oh no! This... this is one of those monsters!" Lily hurriedly took a few steps back and began to gather spiritual power in her hands to try to defend against possible attacks.

"Calm down, don't be afraid." The mysterious woman was unusually calm, and raised her lips slightly to reveal a confident smile. "It's just a test, the real enemy is still behind."

Before he finished speaking, the monster roared and attacked Lin Feng, who was closest to him! However, at the critical moment, a soft but extremely powerful light surrounded it, causing it to struggle painfully.

"It seems this guy is more difficult to deal with than expected." Lin Feng calmed his mind, and the long sword in his hand glowed with a faint blue light. "Everyone, come together, we can't let it escape so easily."

The battle was about to start. The three of them used their learned skills to fight the beast: Lin Feng wielded his sword to release continuous light blade shock waves that pierced the opponent's heart; Lily quickly changed her position and used wind magic to continuously weaken the target's defense and disrupt its attention in order to create more opportunities for her companions; as for Chen Le, he made full use of his speed advantage to flexibly shuttle across the battlefield and find the best time to deliver a fatal blow.

As time went by, although the three of them cooperated well and showed perseverance, they still felt unprecedented difficulty and hardship. Just when the situation was at a stalemate, the mysterious woman spoke again to break the deadlock: "Now it's my turn to take action. Please believe in my strength."

As she spoke, she opened her arms and softly chanted an ancient spell. Then, holy and dazzling rays of light gathered at one point to form a huge lightsaber emitting endless light energy that was suspended in the air!
With a clear and loud whistling sound, the weapon formed by the gathering of pure energy flew straight towards the monster's head - and instantly burst into a dazzling brilliance that instantly illuminated the entire night sky...

"Ahh..." The monster wailed miserably and fell to the ground, motionless, eventually turning into a ball of black mist and disappearing into thin air.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and a long-lost smile appeared on their faces. "Thank you for helping me solve this big problem!" Lin Feng looked at the beautiful figure beside him with gratitude and sighed.

"You're welcome. This is just the beginning." The woman shook her head and reminded, "Greater challenges are still waiting for us, but I believe that as long as we unite as one, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome."

Just when the atmosphere was relaxing a little, a slight noise not far away suddenly caught their attention.

"Who's there?" Lily shouted, nervously clenching the dagger in her hand.

"Hey, don't be so nervous. We are not enemies~" Two handsome young men with a cynical temperament slowly walked out from the shadows. "Please introduce yourself. My name is Mo Li, and the one next to me is my little brother Feng Yan."

"Oh? Then what is your intention by appearing here?" Chen Le naturally did not dare to take lightly the strangers who suddenly appeared, and his eyes were closely fixed on every movement and change of the two.

Faced with such inquiries, Mo Li simply shrugged and smiled more charmingly: "Actually, it's nothing. I just wanted to see if I could help and see if there were any fun things I could take away. Hehehe..."

"You have also heard about the monsters that appeared in the Dark Forest, right?" The mysterious woman who had been silent and observing the other party's behavior finally spoke again to break the deadlock, "Perhaps we can share intelligence and fight the crisis together."

After hearing this, Feng Yan nodded in agreement: "Yeah, you are right. It is difficult to completely solve this incident with one person alone, so forming an alliance may be the best choice at the moment." "In that case, let's do it!" Lin Feng stepped forward and took the initiative to extend his hand and hold the two tightly together to symbolize the establishment of friendship. "Let us work together to contribute to the protection of this world!"

After the four reached a consensus, they continued on their journey of exploration...

"The clues we are looking for should be ahead," the woman looked up ahead, her eyes full of determination. "But remember, the road ahead will only become more dangerous. Are we ready?"

"Of course!" Lin Feng gripped the sword tightly, his eyes bright.

"Let's go. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will face them together." Chen Le patted Feng Yan's shoulder, and the latter nodded with a smile.

The four of them were ready to go again, and continued along the moonlit path to meet unknown challenges...

"No matter what happens next, don't act rashly." The mysterious woman turned around and reminded.

"Understood!" The voices of the three people echoed in the forest under the moonlight, as if even the trees were cheering them on...

Lin Feng and others followed the mysterious woman into the dark forest. The seemingly ordinary road seemed to hide countless unknowns and dangers at this moment. The moonlight shined through the treetops, casting mottled light and shadows, giving people a feeling that was both beautiful and weird.

"This area hides many unknown secrets, and it is also where monsters gather." The woman said softly, with a hint of caution in her voice. "We must move forward carefully."

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and Lin Feng shuddered. "Something feels wrong..." Before he finished speaking, a pair of red eyes flashed in the bushes ahead, followed by a big bear covered with black hair that suddenly jumped out!

Chen Le quickly drew out the two swords on his back and prepared for battle, "Here they come!" However, the black bear did not attack immediately, but let out a low roar, as if conveying some information. Then, more strange cries were heard around, and creatures of various shapes and sizes emerged from all directions - some looked like enlarged insects, and some had strange human-faced beasts...

Just when the situation was about to get out of control, Mo Li and Feng Yan demonstrated their extraordinary strength: the former quickly formed seals with his hands, releasing a strong wave that directly repelled the nearest enemies; the latter waved the long whip in his hand like a snake, flexibly wrapping around the attacker's limbs and pulling him to the ground, unable to resist.

Seeing this, everyone immediately entered combat mode to meet the enemy - Lily raised the magic wand in her hand and cast a powerful healing spell to ensure that every partner could maintain the best combat condition; Lin Feng continuously used sword moves to suppress the opponent's offensive and protect his teammates from harm; at the same time, Chen Le used his agility to shuttle between the battlefields to find gaps to deal a fatal blow to the opponent.

The battle lasted for a long time, and finally died down with joint efforts. Just when everyone was relieved, a clear and loud voice suddenly broke the silence of the night: "I didn't expect you guys to be so powerful~"

Everyone turned their heads and saw a young man wearing a black cloak and a strange smile sitting leisurely on a tree trunk not far away, as if he had seen everything that had just happened. "Who are you?" Lin Feng asked in a deep voice, watching the visitor's every move with vigilant eyes.

The man took off his hood calmly, revealing a young, handsome but slightly pale face. "Oh? You don't recognize me?" He pretended to be surprised and said, "My name is Xiao Ran, and I'm quite famous in this area."

"We don't care how famous you are. Now that you are here, don't think about leaving easily!" After hearing this, Feng Yan, the little brother who had been standing silently in the back row, suddenly became excited and glared at the so-called "celebrity". "Isn't it enough that you guys bully innocent people all the time?!"

Xiao Ran was stunned at first, then he chuckled twice and waved his hands to deny it: "Oh, oh, what a misunderstanding. Actually, I'm here to introduce a new friend to you today~" As he finished speaking, another tall and burly man covered in metal armor walked out of the shadows next to him. "This guy is my partner, Thunderbolt, and he's good at frontal combat."

Faced with such a situation, everyone obviously could not let down their guard, and stood firm and waited for instructions on the next move. The mysterious woman stepped forward and took the initiative to ask: "What are your intentions? Are you just showing off your strength?"

Xiao Ran put away his smile and responded seriously: "No, no, in fact, there have been some abnormal situations in recent times that have attracted the attention of many people. I heard that you are looking for a solution to the problem, so I came to see if we can cooperate and win together."

After hearing this, although he was still skeptical, considering the current difficulties and the possible help he could get, Lin Feng finally nodded and agreed: "Okay, let's just believe it for now and see the result. If you dare to play tricks... well, don't blame me for being ruthless!" After that, he led the team to continue exploring in the direction determined previously.

In this way, a newly formed team of five began their journey full of dangers but also full of expectations. As they step deeper into the jungle, how many difficulties and challenges will they face?

Just as everyone was walking intently on the winding path, the surrounding environment suddenly began to change - the air seemed to become more humid and oppressive; the distance between the trees became narrower and more difficult to pass through... All this hinted that something even more dangerous might happen next.

"Be careful, there may be a trap ahead!" At this moment the mysterious woman suddenly issued a warning.

Lin Feng immediately stopped and his eyes became alert. He turned back to look at the mysterious woman, but found that she had disappeared.

"Where is she?" Lin Feng anxiously asked Chen Le and Feng Yan beside him. The two also had confused expressions on their faces and obviously did not notice her leaving either.

Suddenly, a deep laugh came from the front, and the air was filled with an ominous atmosphere. An extremely ugly man with scars all over his face slowly walked out of the shadows and stood in front of them. (End of this chapter)
