Beautiful girl travels through time and space to become a princess

Chapter 270 Crisis of Ritual

After repelling the attack of the dark forces, Shen Mo and his companions did not have time to rest and immediately began to prepare for the ceremony. In the square in the center of the village, the items they had found with great difficulty were placed, the ice crystal flower exuded a cold light, and the deep sea pearl flashed a mysterious blue.

Lin Yuwei carefully arranged every detail of the ceremony by referring to ancient documents, while Su Yao and other villagers watched nervously, holding tightly in their hands the food and water prepared for the warriors.

Shen Mo and Qing Feng stood at the edge of the square, watching their surroundings vigilantly to prevent the dark forces from attacking again. The female general commanded the soldiers to strengthen patrols and defenses around the village.

"Are you all ready?" Shen Mo asked.

Lin Yuwei wiped the sweat from her forehead and nodded: "It's almost done, we can start anytime."

Shen Mo took a deep breath: "Then let's get started."

Lin Yuwei stepped forward and began to chant the ancient spell. As her voice rang out, the lights on the ritual objects gradually intertwined, forming a huge vortex of light.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the vortex of light, their hearts filled with anticipation.

However, just when the ceremony was at a critical moment, the sky suddenly darkened and a strong wind blew past, making it impossible for everyone to open their eyes.

"Oh no, something's happening!" Qingfeng shouted loudly.

Shen Mo looked up and saw a huge black figure appearing in the air. The figure exuded a suffocating dark aura and was the leader of the dark forces.

"Hahahaha, you think you can destroy me like this? Too naive!" said the dark leader with a wild laugh.

Shen Mo glared at him: "No matter how powerful you are, we will not give up!"

The dark leader waved his hand, and a powerful dark force rushed towards the ceremony site.

"Protect the ceremony!" the female general shouted.

The soldiers rushed forward and formed a human wall, trying to resist the attack of the dark forces.

Lin Yuwei increased the speed of chanting the spell, and the vortex of light became even more powerful.

But the power of the dark leader was too strong. The soldiers were repelled by the dark power one after another, and some even fell unconscious on the spot.

"We can't let him destroy the ceremony!" Shen Mo roared, rushing towards the dark leader with the artifact in hand.

The dark leader looked at him with contempt, and with a light wave of his palm, Shen Mo was knocked away by a powerful force.

"Silence!" Su Yao exclaimed.

Qingfeng caught Shen Mo, "Are you okay?"

Shen Mo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "I'm fine, keep fighting!"

They rushed towards the Dark Leader again, but were easily repelled by him.

At this moment, Lin Yuwei's voice suddenly became louder: "The ceremony is about to be completed, everyone hold on!"

The dark leader seemed to feel threatened as well. He increased his power output and tried desperately to destroy the ceremony.

The female general led the remaining soldiers and stood guard in front of the ceremony site, not letting the dark leader get any closer.

"Even if it costs my life, I can't let him succeed!" shouted the female general.

The soldiers responded in unison, their morale high.

With everyone's tenacious resistance, the ceremony was finally completed.

The vortex of light suddenly exploded and turned into a powerful beam of light that shot towards the dark leader.

The dark leader was hit by the light and let out a painful roar.

But he did not fall down, instead he attacked even more frantically.

"Don't relax, keep fighting!" Shen Mo shouted.

Everyone once again fought a desperate battle with the dark leader.

The battle entered a white-hot stage and both sides were exhausted.

At this moment, Lin Yuwei suddenly discovered a flaw in the dark leader.

"Shen Mo, attack his chest!" Lin Yuwei shouted.

Shen Mo did not hesitate. He used up the last bit of his strength and rushed towards the dark leader's chest with the artifact in hand.

The artifact pierced the dark leader's chest. The dark leader let out a final desperate roar, and then his body turned into a ball of black smoke and gradually dissipated.

"We won!" everyone cheered.

But they also paid a heavy price for this, with many soldiers injured and the village suffering serious damage.

Shen Mo looked at the exhausted crowd and said, "Although the dark leader has been defeated, we cannot let our guard down. The dark forces may come back again."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

In the days that followed, they began to rebuild the village, treat the wounded, and strengthen their training to guard against possible future threats.

And in the distance, a dark aura is quietly gathering...
