Chapter 420 "Secret Shadow of the Ancient Castle: Lin Xiao's Escape from Despair"
The moment Lin Xiao hit the monster's head with a stone, the monster roared in pain and loosened its grip on her. Lin Xiao took the opportunity to roll over and quickly stood up, breathing heavily, but she didn't dare to take her eyes off the monster for a moment.
At this moment, the castle suddenly fell into a dead silence, so quiet that it made people feel uneasy. Lin Xiao tightly grasped the dagger, observing his surroundings vigilantly, his heart beating like a drum.
Suddenly, a secret door slowly opened behind her, and a strong suction force pulled her in. Lin Xiao struggled desperately, but was unable to resist the force and was instantly sucked in.
When she came to her senses, she found herself in a mysterious room. Strange lights flickered on the walls and the ground was engraved with strange runes.
"Where on earth is this place?" Lin Xiao was full of doubts and walked forward cautiously.
At this moment, a book with an ancient atmosphere slowly rose from a huge stone platform in the center of the room. Lin Xiao walked closer and saw that the words on the book seemed to be alive and moving.
Just as she was about to reach out and touch the book, a gentle voice sounded in her ear: "Don't touch it, it's a cursed book."
Lin Xiao was startled and turned around to see a man in a white robe appearing behind her. The man had a handsome face, but his eyes were filled with deep worry.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Lin Xiao asked vigilantly.
The man smiled and said, "I am the guardian of this castle. You shouldn't be here."
Lin Xiao frowned: "Guardian? What about the monster outside?"
The man sighed: "That is a cursed evil spirit. This castle hides a huge secret."
Lin Xiao asked curiously: "What secret?"
The man was silent for a moment, then said, "A secret about immortality and dark power, and you have been caught in the storm."
At this moment, the room suddenly shook violently, and the light on the wall became blindingly bright.
"Oh no, the curse has been triggered!" The man's face changed drastically.
Then, countless black shadows rushed in from all directions and pounced on them. The man took Lin Xiao's hand and cast a powerful spell to fight fiercely with the black shadows.
During the battle, Lin Xiao and the man cooperated with each other, and a different feeling gradually emerged in each other's eyes.
However, as the shadows grew in number, they gradually found themselves in trouble.
"This is not a solution. We must find a way to break the curse!" the man said loudly.
Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's look for it together!"
Just as they were looking for clues, Lin Xiao accidentally discovered a mysterious symbol on his dagger, which was exactly the same as a rune in the room.
"Maybe this is the key!" Lin Xiao shouted.
She inserted the dagger into the rune, and instantly, a beam of light shot up into the sky and the shadows dissipated.
But just when they thought the crisis was over, a greater danger quietly approached...
