Terror strikes and rescue operations

As Night Shadow finished speaking, the temperature inside the factory dropped sharply, as if instantly plummeting from the mortal world into an ice cellar.

A sinister Aura surged in like a tide, and a chilling cold that made one's blood run cold permeated every bit of air.

Ye Qiu and Night Shadow stood in a standoff; the air between them seemed frozen, filled with a tension so thick it could be cut with a knife, as if a world-destroying battle would erupt the very next second.

Just then, Xiao You suddenly let out a terrified scream.

Ye Qiu's heart tightened, and his gaze shifted to Xiao You as quickly as lightning.

He saw that a mass of black mist had appeared beside Xiao You at some unknown moment.

Within the mist, twisted human faces vaguely emerged; they opened their bloody maws and emitted shrill screams that seemed to pierce the Soul, telling of endless pain and resentment.

"Brother Ye Qiu, save me!" Xiao You's voice was tearful and filled with fear, appearing exceptionally helpless in this sinister environment.

Ye Qiu was furious; he knew this must be a conspiracy by the Mysterious Organization, using terrifying illusions to disrupt his state of mind.

"Night Shadow, do you think you can scare me with this? How childish! These low-class tactics of yours can't even hurt me in the slightest."

Ye Qiu roared, and the Chaos Power around his body surged violently, shining brightly as he attempted to disperse the eerie black mist.

Night Shadow let out a sinister, cold laugh that echoed through the empty factory: "Ye Qiu, you are too conceited. This is just a small welcoming gift for you; what comes next will be much harder to bear."

"Do you think you can easily break my Dark Magic? You are too naive."

However, the black mist seemed to have a consciousness of its own; not only was it not dispersed, but it became even thicker.

Those twisted faces kept emerging from the black mist, lunging toward Ye Qiu and Xiao You as if to devour them.

Ye Qiu did not retreat.

He unleashed "Chaos Storm," kicked off the ground violently, and shot toward the black mist like a cannonball.

His hands moved rapidly, each wave creating a powerful airflow.

Chaos Power gathered in his palms, forming small energy vortexes that he then shot toward the black mist like meteors.

Wherever these energy vortexes passed, the black mist was stirred into turmoil, emitting a "hissing" sound as if struggling in pain.

"Ding! The host has successfully performed a cool move, gaining 2000 prestige value."

The System notification sounded in Ye Qiu's mind.

But the black mist continued to surge forth endlessly.

Ye Qiu realized that raw power might not be enough to break this eerie, terrifying illusion.

He began to think calmly, recalling an ancient legend he had heard in another world.

According to legend, there is a mysterious Light Power that can disperse all darkness and evil.

Ye Qiu focused his mind, attempting to extract the attribute of light from his Chaos Power.

While Ye Qiu was exerting himself, Xiao You was already engulfed by fear; she kept her eyes tightly shut, her body trembling uncontrollably.

"Brother Ye Qiu, I'm so scared..." Xiao You's voice was weak and helpless.

Ye Qiu shouted, "Xiao You, don't be afraid! I will definitely save you!"

Finally, deep within the Chaos Power, Ye Qiu successfully extracted a thread of Light Power.

He infused this thread of Light Power into his Chaos Power and blasted it toward the black mist once more.

In an instant, a dazzling light flashed by.

The black mist seemed to have encountered its natural enemy and quickly dissipated.

Those twisted faces let out painful roars and vanished along with the black mist.

Seeing this scene, a flash of surprise crossed Night Shadow's eyes, but he quickly returned to his cold demeanor.

"You have some skill, but that is not enough. Do you think that by breaking this little trick, you can defeat me? You are too naive."

Night Shadow waved his hand, and the factory floor began to shake violently.

Countless sharp stone pillars erupted from the ground, stabbing toward Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu flashed, moving between the stone pillars like a ghost.

His body twisted nimbly, and every dodge and leap was perfectly timed, avoiding the attacks of the stone pillars flawlessly.

"You think you can hurt me with this? You're still too green. These so-called traps of yours are nothing but child's play in my eyes."

He condensed his Chaos Power once again, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to Night Shadow.

Seeing this, Night Shadow quickly formed hand seals, chanting something under his breath.

Black energy barriers appeared before him, intertwining to form an airtight defensive net.

Night Shadow sneered, "Ye Qiu, go ahead and attack; let's see if your Chaos Power can break through my Darkness Power defense."

Ye Qiu snorted coldly, a flash of disdain in his eyes.

He took a deep breath, gathered his Chaos Power into his right hand, and then thrust it forward violently.

"Chaos Rending Palm!"

With his shout, a massive palm print, carrying an Aura of total destruction, surged toward Night Shadow.

Wherever the palm print passed, the air was instantly torn apart, emitting a "hissing" sound.

The palm print struck the black energy barrier, immediately erupting in a dazzling light and a deafening roar.

The energy barrier trembled violently under the impact of the palm print, and cracks quickly spread across it.

Night Shadow's face turned pale; he had not expected Ye Qiu's attack to be so powerful.

At this moment, Xiao You slowly regained her senses.

Watching Ye Qiu's heroic figure, her heart was filled with admiration and gratitude.

"Brother Ye Qiu, you are so amazing..." Xiao You whispered.

Ye Qiu turned back to give Xiao You a reassuring smile.

"Don't be afraid, it will be over soon."

He shouted, gathered his Chaos Power once again, and prepared to launch an even more powerful attack.

Night Shadow gritted his teeth, desperately maintaining the energy barrier.

He knew that once the barrier was broken, he would be completely doomed.

But Ye Qiu's attacks were like a surging tide, wave after wave, making him gradually unable to keep up.

Ye Qiu seized the opportunity to fire the Chaos Power he had condensed to its limit toward Night Shadow.

A massive beam of energy tore through the darkness, rushing toward Night Shadow.

Night Shadow hurriedly cast Dark Magic to defend himself, but in the face of Ye Qiu's powerful attack, his resistance appeared somewhat weak.

The energy beam struck Night Shadow, and he let out a miserable scream as his body was sent flying, crashing heavily against the factory wall.

Ye Qiu took the opportunity to rush to Xiao You, untied the ropes on her, and shielded her tightly behind him.

"Xiao You, it's okay now, I'm here."

Ye Qiu comforted her softly.

However, Night Shadow had not been completely defeated.

He struggled to stand up, his eyes filled with unwillingness and anger.

"Ye Qiu, don't get cocky, this isn't over yet! Do you think you can escape so easily?"

"I won't let you go, nor that little girl beside you."

As soon as Night Shadow finished speaking, the factory doors suddenly closed, and the entire factory was enveloped by an even more powerful Darkness Power; the real crisis might have only just begun...
