Rebirth of the Innkeeper's Wife: She's Not to Be Messed With

Chapter 234 Crack

Despite the setbacks, the man did not give up easily.

After adjusting his stance, he unleashed an even more ferocious attack in an attempt to break through the barrier.

However, no matter how hard he tried, the result was the same—all his attacks were mercilessly bounced back.

Moreover, the barrier remained completely still, showing no sign of being breached whatsoever.

At this moment, Huan Yuechu, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, couldn't help but frown slightly.

She thought to herself, "It seems the situation is worse than I expected. With our current strength, it's almost impossible to force our way through this barrier."

Thinking of this, Huan Yuechu sighed heavily, her heart filled with helplessness and bitterness.

She slowly shook her head, and a heartbreaking bitter smile involuntarily appeared on her beautiful face.

Looking back on the arduous journey they went through together, it seemed as if they had always been fighting against fate.

There was never a moment's rest, not even a moment to catch one's breath or take a break.

However, faced with this thorny predicament, even after overcoming countless hardships, they are still helpless.

Taking advantage of this rare break, Huan Yuechu dragged her exhausted body and slowly sat down.

She tilted her head slightly, gazing at the distant horizon, her eyes revealing deep confusion and helplessness.

Seeing this, the man next to him couldn't help but sigh and sat down with a worried expression.

He looked around at the desolate land that had trapped them, and pondered to himself.

This place is so isolated that there is no way out. I really don't know what to do next.

Even the originally lively and adorable little spirit beast seemed to sense the heavy and oppressive atmosphere around it.

It drooped its head listlessly, lay limply on the ground, motionless, as if it had lost all vitality.

After a long silence, Huan Yuechu suddenly turned her head and stared intently at the little spirit beast.

Her voice was low and serious as she asked, "What exactly is the truth you mentioned before?"

The little spirit beast raised its head slightly, and a hint of hesitation flashed quickly in its bright eyes.

Then, as if it had finally made up its mind, it slowly spoke.

"In fact, this powerful and evil force was originally a manifestation of the evil thoughts in the heart of a god. It was sealed here many years ago. And the iron weapon that the statue holds tightly in its hand is the key to sealing it again."

"Furthermore, the reason for setting up this incredibly sturdy barrier is precisely to prevent anyone from accidentally touching the idol and thus causing an even greater disaster to befall the world."

The little spirit beast sighed softly, then said, "As for the true ins and outs of the matter and the whole truth, you'll have to find out for yourselves. I truly know nothing about it..."

Upon hearing this, the man and Huan Yuechu exchanged bewildered glances, both showing expressions of extreme shock.

After a brief silence, Huan Yuechu was the first to come back to her senses. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly as she fell into deep thought.

After a moment, she parted her lips slightly and said, "Judging from this, there must be a way to break through this barrier, which may be related to these mysterious runes in front of us."

Upon hearing this, the man beside him had a sudden flash of brilliance in his eyes, like stars shining brightly in the darkness.

Immediately afterwards, he stood up quickly, walked briskly to the temple gate, and began to study the strange runes that covered the entire door with great concentration.

Just then, the man suddenly realized that if some of the runes were activated in a certain order, they would produce extremely faint but clearly discernible energy fluctuations.

So he didn't hesitate to extend his finger and carefully follow the order to touch the other runes around him that were similar to it.

When the last rune was successfully triggered, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, and time seemed to stand still.

However, after only a moment, a soft "clicking" sound was heard.

Although the sound was not loud, it was exceptionally clear and jarring in the quiet environment.

The two quickly looked closely and saw the barrier that had always been indestructible, like an impregnable fortress.

At that very moment, a narrow and slender crack quietly appeared!

The crack, like a winding little snake, slowly spread across the surface of the barrier.

Upon seeing this, the man was overjoyed. Without hesitation, he channeled all his strength and struck the crack fiercely.

At the same time, Huan Yuechu, who was standing to the side, did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.

She let out a delicate shout and unleashed her most powerful move, joining forces with the man.

As the two launched their all-out attack, the crack, which had initially been just a tiny fissure, began to expand rapidly.

Finally, with a loud "bang," the entire barrier shattered completely, turning into countless fragments scattered all over the ground.

With the barrier gone, the two quickly walked towards the statue in front of them.

Just as they reached out and picked up the black iron object that was placed in front of the statue.

Suddenly, an incredibly powerful evil force surged from behind, accompanied by a deafening roar.

The roar was like the howl of a demon from the deepest hell, sending chills down one's spine.

Their hearts tightened, and they exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of solemnity and determination in each other's eyes.

They gripped their black iron weapons tightly, resolutely turned around, and stood ready to face the fierce battle that was about to begin.

On a dark and desolate wasteland, a powerful and evil force is quietly stirring.

This force, like a thick black mist, churned and twisted, gradually coalescing into a tall and terrifying figure.

The figure was over two meters tall and exuded a chilling aura.

Its eyes gleamed with a blood-red light, like burning flames, revealing endless killing intent and malice.

"Hahahaha... Do you really think you can escape from me?"

The demon opened its hideous mouth and let out a sinister laugh.

The laughter seemed to come from the deepest hell, sending chills down one's spine.

Standing not far away, Huan Yuechu and the man gripped the ironware tightly in their hands.

Their gazes were firm and resolute, showing no sign of backing down.

Faced with such a terrifying enemy, they were filled with fear, but even more so with courage and determination.

The man took a deep breath, then shouted and charged toward the demon like an arrow released from a bow.
