The genius who counterattacked the mainland

Chapter 115

Shocked, he took a few steps back, his arms numb. Seeing this, Lin immediately unleashed her Ice Arrow technique, sending countless icy arrows blasting towards the demon. After the icy arrows struck the demon's dark shield, they instantly dissipated into vapor.

Xu Tiancai frowned, knowing full well that this demon was formidable. He concentrated, merging the power of the Galaxy Guardian Bracelet with his own stellar energy, and fired a multicolored beam at the demon. The beam struck the demon's shield, causing ripples but not breaking it.

"Its shield is strong. We must attack together," Xu Tiancai shouted. Lin and Agang quickly approached Xu Tiancai, and the three of them combined their strength. Xu Tiancai unleashed the power of the stars, the power of the phoenix, and the power of the Galaxy Guardian Bracelet. Lin unleashed her ice magic, and Agang unleashed the lightning power of his giant axe, forming a massive three-colored energy column that blasted towards the demon.

The demon, sensing this overwhelming force, flapped its wings and spewed more black flames from its mouth in an attempt to resist. The energy column collided with the demon's attack, emitting a deafening roar that shook the entire castle. The dark vortex grew even more violent under this impact, and more dark aura surged from the crystal ball.

Under the impact of the energy collision, a crack appeared in the demon's dark shield. Xu Tiancai keenly sensed this opportunity. He grasped the Galaxy Key, poured all his strength into it, and rushed towards the crack. The moment he approached the demon, he fiercely stabbed the Galaxy Key into the crack. The light of the Galaxy Key and the dark power of the demon's shield intertwined, emitting a dazzling light.

Agang and Lin also took the opportunity to launch an attack. Agang leaped high, his giant axe carrying the powerful force of lightning and slashing at the demon's wings, trying to restrict its movement. Lin cast a large-scale freezing field spell, freezing the space around the demon and slowing it down.

Under the combined attack of the three, the demon's shield was finally broken. The demon roared in anger, and traces of burns and frost appeared on its body. But it didn't retreat. Instead, it pounced on Xu Tiancai and the others with even greater frenzy. It extended its massive claws and clawed at Xu Tiancai. Xu Tiancai dodged nimbly, weaving in and out of the demon's attacks, searching for its weaknesses.

While dodging the attack, Xu Tiancai discovered a black crystal on the demon's chest. It seemed as if a core of dark power was surging within it. "Attack its chest!" Xu Tiancai shouted. Upon hearing the command, Agang and Lin immediately adjusted their attack direction.

Agang charged at the demon, deftly dodging its claws before bringing his axe down with all his might on the demon's chest. The axe struck the crystal on the demon's chest, scattering a burst of black light. The demon roared in pain, its claws lashing out at Agang. Agang was struck, his body flying like a cannonball, slamming heavily into the wall.

Seeing Agang injured, Lin's eyes flashed with anger. She cast a forbidden ice spell, draining much of her own life force and transforming it into an extreme force of cold. The temperature plummeted, and the entire room was covered in ice and snow. The demon's body also began to freeze in the frost, its movements becoming sluggish. Lin seized the opportunity and fired a spike of pure ice magic into the demon's chest. The spike pierced the crystal in the demon's chest.

Xu Tiancai seized this opportunity, unleashing the full power of the Star Force, the Phoenix Force, and the Galaxy Guardian Bracelet. A giant sword composed of light materialized in his hand, and he slashed at the crystal on the demon's chest. The sword struck the crystal, emitting a dazzling light. More cracks appeared on the crystal, and dark power leaked out from the cracks.

The demon's body trembled violently, its strength gradually weakening. But it still struggled, trying to fight back. It flapped its wings and pounced on Lin, intent on dealing with this enemy that posed the greatest threat first. Seeing this, Xu Tiancai immediately rushed forward, blocking the demon's attack with his body. He was struck by the demon's wings, and a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, but he still held the radiant giant sword tightly in his hand.

Agang climbed to his feet, his body severely wounded, but his eyes gleamed with determination. He raised his great axe once more and charged at the demon. As he neared the demon, he channeled his soul power into the axe. The axe shone brightly, and with devastating force, it struck the demon's chest. This single blow, channeling all of Agang's strength, successfully shattered the crystal within the demon's chest.

The demon let out a final, shrill scream, and its body began to crumble. Dark power surged from its body, flowing back toward the dark crystal ball. The crystal ball trembled violently, and the light on the rune chains grew brighter, as if re-strengthening the seal.

Xu Tiancai and the others collapsed to the ground exhausted, their bodies and spirits greatly depleted. But they succeeded in stopping the demon from destroying the seal and safeguarding the peace of the planet.

"We did it..." Lin said weakly. "Yes, but we can't relax yet. We need to make sure the seal is completely secure," Xu Tiancai said. They rested for a while, regaining some strength, and then began to check the rune chain.

After inspection, they found that although the rune chain temporarily stabilized the seal of the dark power, due to the previous turmoil, the seal had become slightly loose. If it was not repaired, the dark power would sooner or later break through the seal again.

"We need to find a way to repair the seal," Xu Tiancai said, looking at the rune chain. They searched the room for clues, and in a corner, they found an ancient stone tablet. Inscribed on the stone tablet were some information about repairing the seal.

According to the records on the stone tablet, three mysterious materials need to be found to repair the seal: ice crystal flowers growing in the extremely cold land of the planet, the lava heart flowing deep in the volcano, and the feathers of the holy feather bird that lives above the clouds.

"Looks like we have a new mission," A Gang said helplessly. "Let's get going without further delay," Xu Tiancai said. They left the castle and set out on their quest to find repair materials.

They first journeyed to the planet's extreme cold. Here, a world of ice and snow, howling winds and snowflakes slicing at faces like knives. The temperature was so low that the air condensed in their lungs with every breath. Xu Tiancai and the others cast spells to ward off the cold, but the chill still bit them to the bone.

In this icy landscape, they labored to find the Ice Flower. Ice Flowers grew deep within the cracks of the glacier, protected by powerful ice magic. They journeyed through the glacier, searching for traces of the Ice Flower. After a painstaking search, they finally found it in a hidden crevice.

The ice crystal flower's petals were translucent, as if carved from the purest ice. They emanated a faint blue light, and the surrounding temperature dropped even lower. Xu Tiancai cautiously approached the flower, invoking his star power to attempt to break the surrounding ice magic shield. Under the influence of the star power, the ice magic shield appeared to weaken slightly. Lin and Agang took the opportunity to assist, and together the three of them broke the shield and successfully collected the ice crystal flower.

Next, they journeyed deep into the planet's volcano. The crater continuously spewed out boiling lava, distorting the surrounding air. They carefully descended along the volcanic wall, dodging the flowing lava and erupting ash.

Deep within the volcano, they found the Lava Core. The Lava Core is a giant, flaming crystal located at the center of the magma. The surrounding magma, as if alive, churns and churns, preventing anyone from approaching.

Xu Tiancai and the others cast spells to resist the intense heat, while Ah Gang used his giant axe to split the magma flow blocking their path. They gradually approached the core of the molten lava. As they neared the core, they were attacked by fire elementals within the magma. These fire elementals were small in stature, but their attacks were incredibly powerful, capable of manipulating the magma into various attack forms.

Lin cast an ice spell, attempting to freeze the fire elves. However, the fire elves were highly resistant to ice spells, easily breaking free from their restraints. Xu Tiancai fused the power of the stars with the power of the phoenix, firing beams of light at the fire elves. The beams struck the fire elves, leaving burn marks on their bodies and temporarily halting their attacks.

Ah Gang seized the opportunity and charged towards the core of the molten lava. Ignoring the intense heat of the surrounding magma and the attacks of the fire elementals, he plunged his great axe with all his might into the magma surrounding the core. The lightning from the axe collided with the flames within the magma, triggering a burst of energy. The impact of the blast weakened the defenses surrounding the core of the molten lava. Xu Tiancai and Lin seized the opportunity to assist Ah Gang, and together they extracted the core of the molten lava from the magma.

Finally, they sought the feathers of the sacred birds that inhabited the clouds. They flew aboard an airship, reaching above the clouds. Above them, they saw a flock of sacred birds soaring in the sky. Their bodies were as white as snow, and their feathers shone with a divine light.

But the Holy Feather Birds were extremely alert. Upon sensing someone approaching, they immediately launched an attack. Using their sharp beaks and claws, they attacked the airship. Xu Tiancai and the others emerged from the airship and engaged in a fierce mid-air battle with the Holy Feather Birds.

Lin cast a wind spell, allowing herself to fly. She used it to create wind blades, striking the birds. The blades left scratches on their feathers. Agang wielded his great axe, engaging the birds in close combat. Each swing of his axe knocked back a bird, but the birds were swift, nimbly dodging Agang's attacks.

Xu Tiancai used the power of the stars and the Galaxy Guardian Bracelet to create a series of light nets in the air. The light nets were cast towards the Holy Feather Birds, trapping some of them. However, the Holy Feather Birds used their power to break free from the light nets and continued their attack.

During the fierce battle, Xu Tiancai noticed that the Holy Feather Birds would pause briefly between attacks, preparing for their next attack. "Attack them when they pause!" Xu Tiancai shouted. Lin and Agang immediately adjusted their attack rhythm upon hearing the command.

When the Holy Feather Birds paused to attack, Lin cast a massive freezing spell, freezing the flock in mid-air. Gang seized the opportunity to chop off several of the birds' feathers with his giant axe. Xu Tiancai used light to create a container and collected the feathers.

After gathering the three materials, they quickly returned to the castle. In the castle's underground sealed chamber, they placed the Ice Crystal Flower, the Lava Heart, and the Feather of the Holy Feather Bird around the Rune Chain, following the instructions on the ancient stone tablet. These materials released powerful energy, resonating with the Rune Chain. The Rune Chain's light grew brighter, and the Dark Crystal Ball ceased its trembling. The dark power was once again firmly sealed within it.

"Finally done," Xu Tiancai breathed a sigh of relief. "This was truly a narrow escape. I hope this planet can remain peaceful forever," Lin said. "Well, but our journey isn't over yet. We must continue to search for the source of the dark power and prevent it from destroying the universe," Xu Tiancai said, gazing into the distance. They rested in the castle for a while, regaining their strength and energy before preparing to embark on their journey again.

As they left the castle and boarded their airship to depart the planet, they saw the creatures on the planet bidding them farewell. Ina and the forest elves stood at the edge of the forest, waving at them. Xu Tiancai and the others were deeply moved. They waved back to the creatures on the planet, then piloted their airship toward the edge of the universe to continue their mission.
