Seeing the situation taking a turn for the worse, Leonard took the lead and said, "Get rid of these bastards first! Protect what you have!" At the same time, the giant vampire also joined the battle, using its huge body to block most of the attacks. "Humph, a bunch of rabble actually want to get the holy relic? Wishful thinking!" Its roar almost cracked the air around it.

Even with the help of two powerful helpers, the enemy was too numerous and the situation soon became critical. "We can't let them succeed!" Xiao Qing quickly released several fireballs to bombard the center of the enemy group, and urged her teammates: "Everyone, act according to the plan we discussed before, don't let the Blood God Cauldron fall into the hands of evil people!"

At this moment, Ye noticed that the black antique seemed to have its own will. After sensing the danger coming from all directions, it began to emit dark light and made a murmur-like sound. Although he couldn't hear the specific content, he was sure that it was not a good thing. "We must act quickly!" He shouted loudly, "We can't delay any longer!"

Following the clues provided in Dark Revelation, everyone stood in their corresponding positions and began to chant the ancient spell. As their voices gathered together, the air was gradually filled with energy particles, forming a transparent barrier to block outside invaders. "Keep going! Don't stop!" The man in black urged, while constantly resisting the small bats or low-level undead creatures that occasionally penetrated the protective net and attacked.

When the last word was uttered, the entire battlefield suddenly stopped - all sounds and movements stopped, only the magic book in Ye's hand and the large cauldron floating in the air in the distance remained unchanged. "What should we do now?" Liyana asked hurriedly, knowing that any mistake next could lead to fatal consequences.

"According to the records, under these special circumstances we should bring the cauldron back to a specific location and complete the final ritual." The man in black said solemnly, "But first we have to lift the blockade formed by those guys outside."

"So... how can we solve the current situation?" Ye looked at the book in his hand, which was gradually getting lighter and even a little hot, puzzled. "There is no mention of this situation here."

"Indeed, they didn't say that, but we can try another method to solve the problem." Liyana suggested, "I remember when I was a child, my father mentioned a spell called 'Elemental Resonance'. Perhaps it can stimulate the different attribute powers in our bodies to produce effects together to achieve the purpose of lifting the ban."

Hearing this, Ye nodded in agreement: "Okay, it's worth a try. Is everyone ready?" After receiving a positive response from his companions, he closed his eyes and tried to sense the source of life flowing in his body and the various natural forces in the surrounding environment, and then began to direct everyone's operations:

"Xiao Qing, you will lead the entire resonance process; Leonard will be responsible for providing a solid foundation to support the overall stability; as for the giant vampire, please help absorb external intrusion factors to ensure purity; Liyana and I will help control the output direction to prevent energy leakage... Do you understand?"

As the last sentence fell, everyone began to devote themselves to this special contest. Slowly, circles of colorful and dazzling halos began to appear under their feet and closely connected with each other, as bright as stars...

At this critical moment, a cold aura spread without warning. When everyone was concentrating on guiding their own elemental power, a shadowy figure appeared silently behind Ye. It was a little girl who looked only seven or eight years old, but her eyes were full of weirdness and viciousness.

"Ah!" With a slight but sharp cry, Xiao Qing turned back suddenly, only to see the little girl waving a short sword with a faint blue light in her hand and stabbing it into Ye's back. Blood instantly dyed Ye's clothes red, and he fell to the ground because of the sudden pain. "Ye!" Xiao Qing exclaimed, and wanted to rush over but found that she couldn't move at all - she was at the key position of the resonance array.

The man in black reacted quickly and stepped forward to stop the girl who was about to attack him. "Who are you? Why did you suddenly attack us?" he asked, while watching the surroundings vigilantly to see if there were any more potential threats.

The girl did not answer, but sneered in her childish voice: "I am only here because I was ordered to do so. Don't think you can stop 'it' like this..." Then she turned into a shadow-like thing and quickly evacuated the scene.

"Ye!" Liyana immediately put down her work and ran over to check his injuries. She saw a faint blue smoke rising slowly from the wound. "Is this poisonous?!"

Although in great pain, Ye still gritted his teeth and insisted: "It's okay... I can still hold on, let's complete the ceremony quickly..." Having said that, it was obvious that even he himself was not sure whether he could make it.

Faced with the sudden situation, everyone was briefly at a loss. "We can't stop, we must carry out the original plan to the end!" Leonard shouted angrily to remind everyone, "If we stop now, the previous preparations will be in vain! And the enemy will definitely not miss this opportunity to launch another fierce attack."

The giant vampire also roared angrily in agreement. It spread its huge wings to protect the three people working in the center, while being alert to the enemy forces that might attack at any time. "Hurry up... I will try my best to buy you more time!"

"But Ye is already injured so badly...isn't there any way for us to treat him?" Liana was so anxious that tears were almost falling, but she knew that crying at this time would not solve any problems.

At this time, the man in black who had been silent all this time said, "Don't worry, I have a backup plan for this situation." He took out a small bottle of seemingly ordinary liquid from his sleeve and handed it to his companions, "This is a magical medicine that can temporarily delay the onset of poison and stimulate his own healing ability. Let him take it first." Then he added to everyone, "As long as we complete all the steps of the ritual within ten minutes, his life will not be in danger."

After receiving the order, the three people quickly divided the work and cooperated - Xiaoqing was responsible for continuing to guide and control the entire resonance process; Liyana concentrated on treating the unconscious male protagonist; and the man in black personally sat outside to prevent any form of interruption from disrupting the overall situation. "We must succeed no matter what... We must persist until the last moment no matter what!" This was the only thought in everyone's mind at this time. As time passed, strange changes began to appear in the air - in addition to the transparent barrier triggered by "Dark Revelation" before, a new type of power was spreading to a wider range in a visible form. It was as if the whole world was responding to this special ceremony.

Just as the last few syllables were about to be finished, the various changes that had been stagnant in the outer circle for a long time became active again - Verak led his men to break through the numerous obstacles and rushed into the ruins, and frantically attacked all obstacles in front of them. "Stop them! Don't let these damn guys get close no matter what!" The giant vampire roared, trying his best to fight with the other party to buy precious time...

"Hurry... it's almost too late..." Due to the severe physical exhaustion caused by excessive blood loss, Ye could only rely on his remaining willpower to endure the burning torture in his body, trying his best to keep a clear mind and participate. "Liya... can you do it... you must stay calm... you must not let this opportunity slip away..." Although the voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible, the determination contained in it was still unquestionable.

"Don't worry... I will never let you sacrifice your life in vain!" In response, Liana tightly grasped the cold and blood-stained hand, with a firm light flashing in her eyes, and repeated the ancient spell in her mouth with a more compact and smooth rhythm.

"How long will it take to complete?" Leonard asked anxiously.

"There's only about a minute left!"

"Just one minute? Well, please believe that we can hold on to the end..." After saying this, he waved the sword in his hand and launched a brave charge towards the huge number of enemies that kept pouring in, trying to win every precious minute and second for his teammates.

Just as the ceremony entered its final stage and everyone was tense and ready to welcome the upcoming victory, an old and hoarse voice came from a distance: "Your efforts will be in vain..." Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old witch wearing a tattered black robe and a wrinkled face slowly appearing in their sight. She held a withered wooden staff and exuded a gloomy aura that made people shudder.

Before anyone present could react, the old witch raised her wooden staff high and pointed it at Ye who was lying on the ground, "This child has enormous power, but he is also the source of disaster! In this case, let me end it all!" As soon as she finished speaking, an invisible force seemed to appear in the air, lifting Ye up, and then flew straight in the direction of the old witch.

"Stop it!" Leonard roared and tried to rush over to stop them, but he found himself unable to move at all. He could only watch his good friend gradually disappear from his sight. Liyana was also extremely anxious, but she was unable to get away because of the task at hand. As for the others, they were either trapped by their duties or shocked by the scene before them. For a moment, no one could take action.

However, Xiaoqing did not give up any hope at this time. Instead, she tried hard to break free with her strong willpower, and finally succeeded. "No... I can't let Ye be captured like this!" Thinking of this, she immediately stood up and stretched out her palm. Suddenly, a circle of golden light spread out from the palm of her hand, forming a transparent protective film covering the figure that was about to disappear. "Stop!"

The old witch was obviously surprised by the sudden change, but she quickly came to her senses and continued to exert pressure. The forces between the two counteracted each other and formed a stalemate. At the same time, Liyana finally finished the emergency treatment process and rushed over to join the confrontation. "Everyone work together! We must not let her succeed!" After that, the two of them worked together to make the defense wall more solid and stable.

Faced with this situation, the old witch sneered: "You ignorant and foolish people, even if you stop me temporarily, what does it matter? 'It' will eventually come to the world again!" After that, she increased the input of magic power, and the whole space began to tremble and shake, and the strange auras around began to gradually dim. After realizing that the situation was not good, the giant vampire took the initiative to retreat to the front line to resist the attack of the enemy army and buy more precious time; while the man in black quietly sneaked behind the old witch and prepared to find an opportunity to launch a fatal attack...

As time passed, everyone tried their best to reverse the situation - Xiaoqing and Liyana worked together to maintain the integrity of the barrier; the giant vampire used his huge body to block the enemy reinforcements; Leonard led the remaining team members to fight hard... Just when everyone was about to use up their last strength, the binding force suddenly disappeared, and then the man in black rushed out quickly and left a long afterimage in the air until he pierced the opponent's chest. "Take him back now and continue the ceremony!" After saying this, he turned around without hesitation to meet the new round of enemy attacks that had re-emerged...

After taking a rare breather, the two girls immediately placed the injured and unconscious Ye back to his original place and hurried to complete the remaining steps. As the last word was spoken clearly and accurately, the entire world instantly burst into an unprecedented dazzling and brilliant light. At this moment, whether it was the raging storm outside or the crazy attack of the invaders, they all seemed to be frozen, leaving only the powerful force from ancient times that was continuously injected into the bodies of each participant...

"Did we... really succeed?" Looking at the surroundings returning to peace and tranquility and her companions' gradually stabilizing condition, Liana asked in disbelief.

"That should be the case." Xiao Qing nodded in response, "But how is Ye now... We have to find a way to wake him up as soon as possible."

"It's okay. As long as you follow the method described in the book, you should see signs of improvement soon..." Although she comforted others like this, Liyana still had a lot of worries in her heart. While they were discussing, the person who was lying quietly suddenly coughed violently a few times, and then slowly opened his eyes...

"Ahem... What on earth is going on...?" Before he fully woke up, Ye felt a warm force flowing through his body, and he could faintly hear someone calling his name... (End of this chapter)
