Chapter 300 "Fantasy World: Desperate Storm: Lin Xiao's Battle for Life and Death"
Lin Xiao tightly grasped the mysterious ancient book, her finger joints turned pale due to excessive force, her brows were furrowed as if she could pinch a fly to death, her eyes were filled with a complex emotion of panic and determination.
The surrounding environment seemed like a painting rendered in darkness and terror. The ancient and twisted trees were like ferocious beasts, stretching out their gloomy branches, as if they would pounce on Lin Xiao at any time to devour him. The dim moonlight struggled to penetrate the dense branches and leaves, and sprinkled on the ground, forming patches of strange, ghostly light spots.
"What secrets are hidden in this crappy ancient book? Why do I feel it's becoming more and more mysterious?" Lin Xiao bit his lip and muttered to himself in a trembling voice.
A cool breeze blew from nowhere, and Lin Xiao couldn't help shivering. She turned her head alertly, her eyes wide open, trying to catch any trace of potential danger in the darkness.
At this moment, the low roar in the distance sounded again, this time even more violently, as if to shatter the entire night sky. The sound echoed in the silent forest, like a call from hell, making Lin Xiao's heart instantly rise to his throat.
"Oh my god, what kind of monster is that? It's not coming for me, is it?" Lin Xiao's voice was obviously crying, and his legs began to tremble involuntarily.
She took a deep breath, suppressed her fear, and carefully moved in the direction of the sound. Each step seemed so heavy, and the dead branches and leaves under her feet creaked under her feet. In this dead silent night, the sound was particularly harsh.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past her like lightning, bringing up a gust of wind that made Lin Xiao's hair fly wildly.
"Who?!" Lin Xiao screamed in horror, her voice piercing the night sky but instantly swallowed up by the darkness.
Her heartbeat quickened so fast that it seemed like it was going to burst out of her chest.
"Don't scare me. Is it a human or a ghost?" Lin Xiao's voice trembled, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
However, the only answer she got was the roar that kept echoing, as if mocking her fear.
Lin Xiao gritted his teeth, tried to calm himself down, and continued to move forward.
When she came to an open grassland, the scene in front of her made her gasp. A huge, ferocious monster appeared in front of her. The monster's body was as big as a hill, and it was covered with a thick layer of scales that shone with cold light, as if it was wearing an indestructible armor. Its eyes were like burning fireballs, emitting a terrifying fierce light, and its sharp teeth flashed a sinister chill in the moonlight.
"Oh my god! This is too scary!" Lin Xiao couldn't help but scream again. Her legs went weak and she almost collapsed to the ground.
The monster opened its bloody mouth and spewed out a hot breath that seemed to be able to turn everything into ashes.
"Don't come over! Don't come over!" Lin Xiao retreated desperately while holding up the ancient book in his hand, trying to stop the monster from approaching.
The monster showed no intention of retreating. Instead, it took heavy steps and approached Lin Xiao step by step.
Every step made the ground tremble slightly, as if declaring its irresistible power.
Lin Xiao's breathing became rapid and disordered, and his brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to deal with the situation.
"Let's fight! The worst that can happen is that I'll die together with you!" Lin Xiao glared and shouted with gritted teeth.
She suddenly flashed and rushed to the side of the monster.
The monster reacted extremely quickly, waving its huge claws at her.
The claws made a whistling sound, as if they could tear the air apart.
Lin Xiao rolled flexibly and narrowly avoided the fatal blow.
"Hmph, it's not that easy to catch me!" Lin Xiao got up from the ground, brushed off the dust on his body, and said provocatively.
The monster was enraged by her provocation, and with a deafening roar, it pounced on her again.
Lin Xiao dodged left and right on the grass, engaging in a thrilling life-and-death battle with the monster.
"You ugly bastard, if you have the guts, stop chasing me!" Lin Xiao ran while shouting and cursing.
The monster seemed to understand her words and attacked even more frantically.
Lin Xiao's forehead was covered with sweat, which slid down his cheeks and dripped onto the grass.
"Oh, I'm so tired!" Lin Xiao panted heavily, and his steps began to become a little unsteady.
Just then, Lin Xiao discovered a weakness of the monster.
"Now!" A determination flashed in her eyes, and she rushed towards the monster's weakness.
She jumped high and smashed the ancient book in her hand hard at the monster's weak point.
"Ah!" The monster let out a painful roar and its body shook a few times.
Lin Xiao took the opportunity to punch the monster a few more times, forcing it to retreat again and again.
"See if you dare to be arrogant again!" Lin Xiao smiled proudly, with a look of victory on his face.
However, the monster did not fall down and it attacked again.
Lin Xiao had to concentrate again to deal with the monster's attack.
