Old Mo's movements had noticeably slowed, but he continued to fight on. As he swung his Wooden Staff, waves of energy shot toward the Hunters. However, under the influence of the Forbidden Energy Domain, the power of these attacks was greatly diminished.
Lin Yu anxiously watched everything unfold, knowing he had to do something. Just then, he noticed Phantom Spirit Fox gently scratching at his wrist. Looking down, he saw the mark on his wrist was faintly glowing.
"Are you saying...?" Lin Yu suddenly understood. He closed his eyes, no longer trying to summon the energy within him but instead focusing on the mark on his wrist.
A new force surged from the mark, unaffected by the Forbidden Energy Domain. Lin Yu felt as if his consciousness resonated with the entire temple; he could sense every stone brick and every rune.
When he opened his eyes again, a glimmer of golden light flashed within them. He raised his hand, and suddenly the runes on the temple walls lit up. A golden beam of light descended from above, striking the net formed by the Forbidden Energy Chains.
"What?!" The Hunters stared in terror as the Forbidden Energy Domain shattered.
Old Mo seized this opportunity and thrust his Wooden Staff into the ground. A wave of energy radiated outward from him, sending all three Hunters flying.
"Run!" Old Mo shouted to Lin Yu. "Their reinforcements will arrive soon!"
Lin Yu scooped up Phantom Spirit Fox and followed Old Mo out of the temple. Behind them, the Hunters struggled to get up, one of them pulling out a strange device and pressing a button.
"Not good!" Old Mo's face changed dramatically. "He's summoning stronger Hunters! We have to leave now!"
The two dashed through the forest, and Lin Yu could hear more footsteps approaching in the distance, along with the low growls of some large creature. Phantom Spirit Fox squirmed restlessly on his shoulder, occasionally letting out warning cries.
"There’s a Teleportation Array ahead," Old Mo panted. "We can use it to leave this area. But..."
"But what?" Lin Yu asked.
"The Teleportation Array needs energy to activate," Old Mo explained. "And right now..."
Before he could finish, he stumbled slightly, and Lin Yu noticed that Old Mo's face had turned pale; clearly, the earlier battle had drained too much of his energy.
"Let me handle it," Lin Yu said. "I feel there’s enough energy in the mark."
Old Mo hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Alright, but be careful. The energy requirement for the Teleportation Array is significant; you might..."
"No time to hesitate," Lin Yu interrupted as he spotted the silhouettes of Hunters emerging from the trees.
They reached a clearing where a complex magic circle was drawn on the ground. Lin Yu stood in the center of the circle, closed his eyes, and focused all his attention on the mark on his wrist.
Energy surged forth like a tidal wave into the magic circle. Lin Yu felt as if his consciousness was being torn apart; intense pain nearly made him faint. But he gritted his teeth and persevered.
The magic circle began to glow brighter and brighter. The Hunters had reached the edge of the clearing but were held back by powerful waves of energy.
"The energy is ready!" Old Mo shouted.
Lin Yu took one last look at the snarling faces of the Hunters before everything around him was engulfed in white light.
When the brilliance faded away, they found themselves standing on unfamiliar land. No longer surrounded by dark forests, they were now in an expansive grassland. Glowing clouds floated in the sky above, and distant mountains could be seen stretching across the horizon.
Lin Yu sat slumped on the ground, his body drenched in sweat. The Phantom Spirit Fox licked his face with concern, transmitting warm energy.
"Well done, my child," Old Mo said with a sense of relief. "You just displayed incredible potential. However..." He glanced into the distance, his expression turning grave. "The Hunter will not give up easily. We must find a safe place quickly."
Following Old Mo's gaze, Lin Yu spotted the faint outline of a city at the foot of a distant mountain. The architectural style of the city was peculiar, resembling a blend of the real world and the Phantom Realm.
"That is one of the largest neutral cities in the Phantom Realm," Old Mo explained, pointing with his hand. "We can take refuge there from the Hunter while searching for other Chosen Ones."
Lin Yu nodded and struggled to stand up. Though his body was exhausted, he felt a surge of determination in his eyes. After all he had been through, he began to realize that the responsibility he bore might be more significant than he had imagined.
Just then, the Phantom Spirit Fox suddenly perked up its ears and turned in another direction. Following its gaze, Lin Yu saw a dark spot in the sky rapidly approaching.
"What is that?" Lin Yu squinted.
Old Mo's expression grew unusually serious. "It's a Dragon Knight... It seems the situation in the Phantom Realm is more complicated than I thought."
Before Lin Yu could ask further, he saw the dark spot rapidly enlarge. It was indeed a dragon, entirely black, its scales gleaming with a metallic sheen under the sunlight. Riding on its back was a figure clad in silver armor, wielding a spear with an imposing presence.
"We need to leave here quickly," Old Mo whispered. "Dragon Knights usually do not act alone..."
Before he could finish his sentence, several more dark spots appeared in the sky. Lin Yu counted at least five dragons flying toward them.
"There’s no time," Old Mo sighed. "Prepare to face new challenges, my child. Remember, not everyone who appears to be an ally in the Phantom Realm is truly a friend."
Lin Yu took a deep breath, feeling the energy within him surge anew. He understood that the real adventure was just beginning. The mark on his wrist seemed to respond to his resolve, emitting a faint but steady glow.
The black dragon descended with a deafening roar, its wings whipping up gusts of wind that sent the grass on the prairie swaying wildly. The knight clad in silver armor brandished his spear, its tip glinting coldly as it pointed directly at Lin Yu and Old Mo.
Lin Yu's heart raced like a drum, but he forced himself to remain calm. He gently placed the Phantom Spirit Fox on the ground and whispered, "Stay safe and behave." Then he activated the energy within the mark on his wrist. A layer of soft blue light enveloped his body; though this defensive power was weak, it was better than nothing.
Despite being exhausted, Old Mo gripped his Wooden Staff tightly. The staff began to emit a gentle green light, and the surrounding grass seemed to respond as it rapidly grew taller and intertwined, forming a natural barrier.
The first dragon had already reached them. The Dragon Knight shouted fiercely and lunged forward with his spear. Lin Yu agilely sidestepped as the spear plunged into the ground where he had just stood. Old Mo waved his Wooden Staff, causing a vine to shoot up from underground and wrap around the dragon's leg. The dragon roared in anger and struggled desperately to break free from the vine's grasp.
