Chapter 274

Li An immediately unleashed a Cursed Technique of defense, shielding everyone within it.

Then he commanded the women: "Yui, use your Cursed Technique to disrupt their movements; Shizuka, you and I will charge out together and break their formation; Hina, use your spiritual power to locate their control core; Xiang Xiang Monan, be ready to provide support at any moment."

The women acted according to his orders.

Yui's Cursed Technique slowed the movements of some puppets, while Shizuka and Li An, like fierce tigers, charged into the puppet horde, striking with fists and staffs, repelling the approaching puppets one by one.

Hina concentrated her spiritual power and finally located the puppets' control core, situated at the top of the temple.

Upon learning this, Li An infused his longsword with mysterious power, leaped with all his might, and flew toward the temple's summit. En route, he was met with frenzied attacks from the puppets, but he deflected them one by one, relying on his superb skill and immense strength.

Reaching the top, Li An saw a massive Shadow Stone placed within a magic array, surrounded by various mechanical devices.

Without the slightest hesitation, he swung his longsword, shattering the magic array and the mechanical devices.

The instant he picked up the last Shadow Stone, the temple began to shake violently, on the verge of collapse.

Li An swiftly returned and led the women out of the temple.

After gathering all five Shadow Stones, they arrived at the seal of this Shadow Land. Li An placed the five Shadow Stones onto the sealing array in a specific order; the stones emitted a dazzling light and connected with one another.

As the light grew ever brighter, the seal slowly opened, revealing a portal leading to the outside world before their eyes.

Li An looked at the women: "Let us go; a new adventure awaits us."

The women smiled and nodded, stepping through the portal alongside Li An, vanishing from this Shadow Land.
