Chapter 184 "The Fantasy World: Lin Xiao and Mo Yu's Game of Life and Death"
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu stepped into the eerie castle carefully. There was a creepy atmosphere all around. The walls were covered with strange vines, like twisting venomous snakes, ready to launch a fatal attack at any time. The weak candlelight swayed in the wind, as if it would go out at any time, plunging them into the abyss of darkness.
Lin Xiao's heartbeat was like a dense drumbeat. She grasped the corner of Mo Yu's clothes tightly with both hands and said in a trembling voice: "Mo Yu, why do I feel this place is gloomy, as if countless pairs of eyes are staring at us." Her eyes were full of fear and uneasiness, and her body trembled slightly involuntarily.
Mo Yu looked solemn, holding his sword tightly in his hand, and comforted: "Xiao'er, don't be afraid, I'm here." His eyes scanned the surroundings vigilantly, and every slight movement did not escape his eyes.
Suddenly, a cold wind whistled past, and the sound was like the roar of a demon, instantly blowing out several candles. Darkness surged in like a tide, instantly swallowing up the entire hall.
Lin Xiao screamed in fright: "Ah! What's going on?" Her voice sounded particularly sharp and terrified in the darkness.
Mo Yu quickly protected Lin Xiao behind him and said loudly: "Don't panic! I'm here and nothing will happen to you." His voice was steady and powerful, bringing a little comfort to Lin Xiao.
At this moment, a gloomy voice echoed in the hall, and the voice seemed to come from the depths of hell: "Do you think you can leave here easily?" This voice was like a cold sword, piercing straight into their hearts.
Lin Xiao's face turned pale instantly, and she shouted loudly: "Who is it? Come out quickly! Stop playing tricks!" There was anger and fear in her voice.
Mo Yu frowned and shouted angrily: "You hiding your head and showing your tail, show yourself if you have the guts!" There was a firm light flashing in his eyes, as if he wanted to see through the darkness.
Following a strange laugh, a dark figure slowly walked out from the darkness. The dark figure was shrouded in a layer of mist, making it impossible to see his face. But the evil aura emanating from him was terrifying.
Lin Xiao couldn't help but gasp and stammered, "This guy...this guy looks so scary!" Her teeth began to chatter.
Mo Yu stepped forward and asked loudly: "Who are you? Why are you stopping us?" His voice was full of majesty.
The black shadow sneered and said disdainfully: "Hmph, you have trespassed into my territory, so you must pay the price!" He waved his hand, and countless ghosts emerged from all directions, they let out shrill cries and pounced towards Lin Xiao and Mo Yu.
Lin Xiao shouted in horror: "Mo Yu, what should we do?" Her voice was filled with tears.
Mo Yu shouted, "Xiao'er, don't be afraid, follow me closely!" As he spoke, he swung his sword and started a fierce battle with the ghosts. His swordsmanship was sharp, and each sword had a powerful force, repelling the approaching ghosts.
Lin Xiao also mustered up her courage and used the magic she had learned. She formed seals with her hands and muttered something, and rays of light shot out from her hands and hit the ghosts.
However, the ghosts were increasing in number, and they were coming like a tide, gradually putting them in a difficult situation. Mo Yu already had many wounds on his body, and his clothes were stained with blood.
Lin Xiao was extremely anxious and shouted, "Mo Yu, hold on!" Tears welled up in her eyes.
Mo Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Xiao'er, I'm fine, don't worry." His face was pale, but his eyes were still firm.
Just when they felt desperate, Lin Xiao suddenly discovered a mechanism in the hall.
"Mo Yu, there seems to be a mechanism over there, maybe it's a way out!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yu fought hard to repel the ghosts around him and rushed towards the mechanism with Lin Xiao.
However, when they approached the mechanism, they found that it would cost a huge price to activate it, which was to exchange their most precious things.
Lin Xiao hesitated and said, "Mo Yu, this price is too high, what should we do?"
Mo Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Xiao'er, in order to get out, we have no choice."
Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's fight!"
They resolutely decided to activate the mechanism. However, just when they were about to succeed, an accident happened again...
