Chapter 158

The attack of the dark shadow remained sharp and fierce, forcing the three of them to give their all in response. Breathing heavily, their spiritual energy was being consumed at a rapid rate. Chen Haotian's heart, however, grew increasingly heavy; the shadow before them was no ordinary vicious beast, and the power contained within it was unfathomably deep. Relying solely on their current cultivation and tactics, resolving this enemy completely would likely prove difficult. The surrounding air grew increasingly viscous, and the surging spiritual qi felt like an invisible torrent, pressing down upon the space of the entire secret realm until it was hard to breathe. Chen Haotian could clearly sense that this powerful energy originated not only from the dark shadow, but also from an invisible force coming from all directions, as if the rules of the entire secret realm were changing. "We cannot keep dragging this out!" Chen Haotian took a deep breath, feeling the spiritual energy within his body depleting rapidly. If things continued this way, their situation would only grow more perilous.
