"The Ability users in the village have split!" A villager came rushing over, breathless and pale as a ghost, sweat dripping down his forehead, looking as if he had seen a ghost.
Xuan Yang's heart sank, a chill creeping up his spine. Split? How could this happen so suddenly? Could it be... the Shadow Force is behind this? Damn it, those persistent wretches!
"What happened? Take your time," Lu Zhiyuan asked in a low voice, trying to maintain his composure, but the furrowed brow and slightly trembling fingers betrayed his inner anxiety.
"Some of the Ability users... they seem to be controlled by the shadows! They attack anyone they see, like they’ve gone mad!" The villager stammered, his voice shaking violently, fear almost consuming him.
"What?!" Lu Zhiyuan and Xuan Yang exclaimed in unison, as if struck by lightning, their scalps tingling. The shadows had actually controlled the village's Ability users? How could this be possible?!
"We need to get back now!" Lu Zhiyuan decided instantly. He knew this was not the time to question why; they had to return quickly to stop this internal chaos, or the village would be doomed!
Xuan Yang nodded heavily, grabbing Qu Si Yang's hand as the three of them sprinted towards the village.
As they ran, Xuan Yang's thoughts raced like wild horses. How did the shadows manage to control the village's Ability users? Was it some kind of special Ability? He recalled the mural he had seen earlier in the dilapidated temple, which depicted an Ability known as "Mind Control," capable of manipulating others' thoughts and actions—extremely dangerous.
Could it be that the shadows were using this Ability to control the village's Ability users? If that were true, things would be dire. Mind Control was notoriously difficult to break; even Lu Zhiyuan might find it insurmountable. He had to find a way to stop the shadows; otherwise, the village would fall into irretrievable ruin.
Upon reaching the village entrance, Xuan Yang's heart dropped at the sight before him. The village was in chaos—sounds of fighting and screams filled the air, flames soared into the sky, and thick smoke billowed like a hellish inferno. The air was thick with a nauseating stench of blood and charred flesh.
Xuan Yang's fury erupted like a volcano. Damn it, Shadow Force, I will tear you apart!
"Xuan Yang, watch out!" Lu Zhiyuan suddenly shouted, shoving Xuan Yang aside.
A shadow descended from above and crashed heavily to the ground with a deafening thud that shook the earth.
Xuan Yang focused his gaze and saw an Ability user shrouded in darkness standing there, wielding a Black Longsword that glimmered with an eerie red light, like hellfire itself—terrifying. The user's Dual Eyes were hollow and lifeless, moving mechanically as they swung their sword at the surrounding villagers.
"Minions of the Shadows!" Lu Zhiyuan gritted his teeth, fury blazing in his eyes.
"Village Chief, let me handle him!" Xuan Yang said in a deep voice. He understood that this was not the time for hesitation; they needed to deal with the controlled Ability user swiftly.
Taking a deep breath, he focused his mind and sensed the shadows around him. He noticed that there were many shadows surrounding the Ability user, lurking like ghosts in the darkness, waiting for the right moment to strike.
With a thought, Xuan Yang manipulated the shadows as if commanding an army, launching a fierce assault on the Ability user. Countless shadows surged forward like black tendrils from all directions, encircling the Ability user completely.
The Ability user swung his longsword, attempting to fend off the shadowy attacks, but the shadows clung to him like parasites, binding him tightly and rendering him immobile.
"Damn it!" The Ability user roared in anger, a flicker of fear flashing in his eyes.
He struggled desperately to break free from the shadow's grasp, but it was futile. The shadows tightened their hold, coiling around him like giant pythons, nearly suffocating him.
"Let me go!" he cried out in despair, his voice hoarse like a trapped beast's lament.
"Not a chance," Xuan Yang replied coldly, devoid of any compassion.
The shadows gradually constricted, enveloping the Ability user's body entirely like a black cocoon.
He let out a piercing scream as his form began to dissipate, ultimately transforming into a wisp of black smoke that vanished into thin air.
Xuan Yang sighed in relief; he knew he had temporarily dealt with this controlled Ability user.
Yet he was aware that this was merely the beginning. The forces of darkness lurked in the shadows, like venomous snakes poised to strike at any moment.
He had to find the Shadow quickly and eliminate this menace to ensure the safety of the village.
He turned to look at Lu Zhiyuan, who was gazing at him with eyes full of appreciation and expectation.
"Xuan Yang, you did well," Lu Zhiyuan praised sincerely.
Xuan Yang nodded. He understood that he bore a heavy responsibility; he had to become stronger to protect those he cared about.
Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from afar, shaking the ground beneath them.
Xuan Yang's heart tightened as an ominous premonition surged within him.
He looked up and saw a massive black vortex forming in the sky, emanating a terrifying aura as if it intended to swallow everything whole.
"What is that?" Qu Si Yang asked in terror, his voice trembling.
"I don't know," Xuan Yang shook his head, filled with confusion and unease.
Could it be the Shadow?
He had a strong feeling that this terrifying presence was connected to the Shadow.
The black vortex grew larger, gradually enveloping the entire sky, as if the end of the world was upon them.
Suddenly, a gigantic Black Claw emerged from the vortex, its claws shimmering with an eerie red light, like a demonic grasp from hell.
The Black Claw rushed toward the village with astonishing speed, as if it intended to destroy the entire place.
"This is bad!" Lu Zhiyuan exclaimed, his face turning pale.
He understood that if that claw caught him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He quickly activated his Ability, trying to halt the Black Claw's attack, but his power seemed insignificant and could not stop its advance.
The Black Claw drew closer, almost reaching the village.
In this critical moment, a beam of golden light erupted from Xuan Yang's body, enveloping him entirely, as if a celestial being had descended.
The golden light collided with the Black Claw, producing a deafening roar that changed the very color of the heavens and earth.
As the golden light gradually faded, the Black Claw also vanished without a trace.
Xuan Yang stood there, radiating a powerful aura like a war god, exuding an imposing presence.
He lifted his head and gazed at the black vortex in the sky, his eyes filled with determination and resolve.
"Shadow, I will defeat you!"
Taking a deep breath, he knew that the real battle was just beginning.
