The Guardian Beast of the Misty Forest resembled a giant bear, yet its body was covered in lizard-like scales and it had bat-like wings. It let out a deafening roar as it charged towards the group. A fierce wind carried a foul stench, making it impossible for anyone to open their eyes, while an overwhelming sense of pressure gripped everyone's hearts as if an invisible hand was tightly squeezing them.
The group frantically waved their weapons, various abilities shimmering like fireworks in the night sky—brilliant and dazzling, yet unable to withstand the Guardian Beast's ferocious attacks. The clash of blades and the glow of abilities intertwined, reflecting the terrified faces of the crowd.
"This won't work; we'll be picked off one by one!" shouted the experienced leader, his voice hoarse with anxiety as beads of sweat formed on his forehead.
"Everyone split up to draw its attention, then regroup at the designated location!" The leader's voice carried an undeniable command, and without hesitation, the group sprang into action.
They quickly divided into two teams, fleeing in different directions. Branches slapped against their cheeks, and bushes tore at their clothes as each person ran for their life, as if being pursued by evil spirits from hell.
Xuan Yang and Qu Si Yang teamed up with two other Trialists, racing deeper into the forest. The fog thickened around them like heavy cotton, obscuring their vision and disorienting their sense of direction.
Xuan Yang held tightly onto Qu Si Yang's hand as they navigated through the mist, filled with unease. He could feel her hand was cold and trembling; he knew she must be terrified at that moment.
"What do we do now, Xuan Yang?" Qu Si Yang asked anxiously, her voice shaking with a hint of tears. Fear gripped her throat like an invisible giant hand, making it hard for her to breathe.
Xuan Yang furrowed his brow, quickly thinking of a plan. "First, we need to find a safe place to hide, then we can figure out our next move." His tone was firm as he tried to offer Qu Si Yang some comfort and encouragement.
Suddenly, a cold laugh echoed through the mist, sharp and chilling like a snake's hiss. "Want to hide? Not so easy!" The voice dripped with mockery and malice, sending shivers down their spines.
Moments later, several dark figures emerged from the fog like phantoms, surrounding Xuan Yang and Qu Si Yang. Dressed in black cloaks with their faces concealed, only their greedy eyes were visible, glaring at them like hungry wolves.
"It's another team!" one Trialist exclaimed in terror. He recognized these black-clad figures as their former companions who had fought alongside them against the Guardian Beast.
"What do you want?" Xuan Yang asked coldly, a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes. He had already guessed the other party's intentions but still wanted to confirm.
"What do we want? Of course, to seize the Puppet Heart!" The leader of the black-clad men said with a sinister smile, his eyes filled with greed. He licked his lips as if he could already see the Puppet Heart before him.
"The Puppet Heart?" Xuan Yang's heart sank as he suddenly remembered that the purpose of this trial was to find the legendary Puppet Heart. He had been so focused on the immediate danger that he had forgotten the ultimate goal of this trial.
"Hand it over if you know what's good for you; otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!" The black-clad man threatened, his tone filled with murderous intent. The dagger in his hand gleamed ominously, ready to take a life at any moment.
Xuan Yang sneered, "Just you lot?" His tone was filled with disdain and mockery, as if he viewed them as nothing more than a group of clowns.
Before he finished speaking, Xuan Yang activated Shadow Puppet. Five Shadow Puppets appeared out of thin air like black phantoms in the mist, lunging toward the black-clad men. Their movements were swift and silent, like the arrival of death itself, sending chills down spines.
The black-clad men clearly did not expect Xuan Yang to have such a trick up his sleeve and were caught off guard. They panicked and swung their weapons but were utterly unable to fend off the attacks from the Shadow Puppets.
"Damn it! He has helpers!" one of the black-clad men exclaimed in horror, hurriedly trying to fend off the Shadow Puppets' assault. Fear and regret filled his heart; had he known better, he would never have targeted Xuan Yang.
At that moment, Xuan Yang silently recited an incantation and activated Reverse Control. A strange wave of energy spread out, enveloping the entire battlefield.
The weapons in the hands of the black-clad men suddenly turned against them uncontrollably. Blades flashed in the mist as screams echoed; one by one, they fell to the ground, groaning in pain.
"Ah!" Several cries of agony rang out as the black-clad men collapsed, writhing in pain. They could never have imagined that they would be harmed by their own weapons.
"With such skills, you dare to come for the Puppet Heart?" Xuan Yang sneered, his voice dripping with disdain. Looking at the fallen black-clad men, he felt not an ounce of pity.
Qu Si Yang and the other two Trialists stared at Xuan Yang in astonishment, their eyes filled with admiration. They had not expected Xuan Yang to be so powerful, easily defeating those men in black.
"Xuan Yang, you are amazing!" Qu Si Yang exclaimed excitedly, her tone brimming with adoration. Her gaze towards Xuan Yang was filled with affection and reverence.
Xuan Yang smiled slightly. "Let's move on," he said. He did not let the victory inflate his ego; he knew that greater dangers awaited them.
At that moment, a loud crash echoed, and the ground shook violently as if an earthquake were occurring. The surrounding trees swayed fiercely, their leaves falling like rain.
"What’s happening?" the group gasped, quickly rising to their feet and warily observing their surroundings. Fear and unease filled their hearts as they wondered what would happen next.
Suddenly, a massive figure slowly emerged from the mist. It was enormous and terrifying, like a demon from hell.
It was a gigantic spider, pitch black with eight sharp claws, its eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty light. Each of its legs was thicker than an adult's thigh, covered in sharp barbs that sent chills down their spines.
"It's the Spider Queen of Misty Forest!" one Trialist cried out, his voice trembling with fear. He sounded as if he might burst into tears.
The Spider Queen let out a piercing shriek and lunged toward the group...
