The mysterious entity and the Ancient Magical Beast engaged in a fierce battle. His figure flickered unpredictably around the beast, constantly launching magical attacks against it. However, the Ancient Magical Beast's defense was extremely strong, and the entity's spells could only inflict minor damage. The beast roared continuously, swinging its massive claws in attack on the entity, who deftly dodged and sought out the beast's weaknesses.
Shen Jingqi and the others focused entirely on assisting the entity in sealing the mysterious power. They chanted spell-bound words, hands forming Sealing signs, channeling energy into the runes. The light from the Crystal Ball gradually dimmed under the effect of the runes, accelerating the sealing process.
However, just as the sealing was about to be completed, the Ancient Magical Beast suddenly let out an angry roar and opened its mouth wide, spewing black flames. The flame's temperature was extremely high, turning everything in its path to ashes. The mysterious entity hurriedly cast spells to block the fire, but the power of the flames was too strong, shattering his shield instantly. The black flames surged towards Shen Jingqi and the others, about to engulf them.
"Oh no!" Shen Jingqi was startled and wanted to dodge, but it was too late. In the nick of time, the mysterious entity suddenly appeared before them, using his own body to block the black flames. The flames devoured him instantly, his figure flickering within the fire.
"No!" Shen Jingqi and the others cried out in anguish. They hadn't expected the mysterious entity to sacrifice himself for their protection, filling their hearts with guilt and remorse.
Nevertheless, just when they thought the mysterious entity had perished, the flames suddenly dissipated. The entity reappeared before them, bearing some burn marks but his eyes remained resolute.
"I'm fine; continue the sealing!" the mysterious entity shouted loudly. His voice, although somewhat weak, was filled with strength.
Seeing the entity unharmed, a sense of hope ignited within Shen Jingqi and the others. They refocused their energies on sealing the mysterious power. Through their efforts, the light in the Crystal Ball finally faded completely, successfully sealing the mysterious power.
The Ancient Magical Beast roared in anger upon seeing the mysterious power sealed. It rushed at the entity in a last struggle. The entity took a deep breath, brought his hands together, and chanted an ancient spell. A massive light burst from him, enveloping the beast. Struggling within the light, the beast issued painful cries. Moments later, the light dissipated, and the beast vanished without a trace.
The members of the mysterious organization saw the mysterious power sealed and the Ancient Magical Beast destroyed, collapsing in despair. They knew their plot had failed completely. They attempted to flee, but Shen Jingqi and the others weren't going to let them get away easily. They rushed forward and captured the members of the organization.
Shen Jingqi and the others looked at the mysterious entity, their hearts filled with gratitude. "Thank you for saving the world," Shen Jingqi said, his eyes glistening with tears, his voice choked with emotion.
The entity smiled and replied, "No need to thank me; this is your mission. Remember, there are many unknown dangers and challenges awaiting you in this world. You must continue to grow to protect the peace of this world." His voice carried a sense of expectation.
After speaking, the entity's figure gradually faded into the air. Shen Jingqi and the others watched the direction of his departure, filled with reverence. They understood the tremendous sacrifice the entity made for the peace of the world.
They looked at the sealed mysterious power, feeling both relieved and worried. Relieved they thwarted the organization's plot, saving the world; worried about future dangers and challenges they might face. Uncertain if the sealed power would be reawakened or when the next crisis would arise.
"What should we do next?" Lin Yue asked, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion.
Shen Jingqi pondered for a moment before answering, "We must not be complacent. Though we've successfully sealed the mysterious power, the organization won't give up easily. We need to stay vigilant and continuously strengthen ourselves to handle any future crises."
The others nodded in agreement, aware their adventure was temporarily over but the road ahead was long. They would continue their mission to safeguard peace in the world and face new challenges.
Just then, the ground of the cave began shaking again. Shen Jingqi and the others were startled, unsure what was happening. They gripped their weapons tightly, alert to their surroundings.
The shaking grew more intense, with debris falling from the cave ceiling. Suddenly, a beam of light shot from deep within the cave, illuminating everything. Following the beam's direction, they discovered it emanated from an ancient transfer portal.
"What's going on? Is there another danger approaching?" Lin Yu asked fearfully.
Shen Jingqi furrowed his brow, filled with doubt. He was uncertain where the portal led or what might emerge from it. But he knew they couldn't just wait idly by.
"Everyone be careful, prepare for battle!" Shen Jingqi shouted.
Everyone assumed battle stances, watching the portal tensely. As the light flickered, a figure emerged slowly from the portal. The figure was obscure, seemingly shrouded in mist. Shen Jingqi and the others' hearts tightened, unsure if the figure was friend or foe.
As the figure fully emerged, the mist gradually dissipated. Shen Jingqi and the others looked closely, discovering it was an elder dressed in ancient robes. His gaze was deep and mysterious, seemingly able to see through everything.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" the elder asked. His voice was deep and gentle, akin to the warmth of a spring breeze.
Shen Jingqi stepped forward and replied, "We are warriors guarding world peace, having just sealed a mysterious power. May I ask who you are? What is this portal about?"
The elder smiled slightly and said, "I am a Guardian from another world. Sensing the disturbance of this mysterious power, I came through the portal. It seems you successfully prevented a disaster."
Upon hearing the elder's words, Shen Jingqi and the others breathed a sigh of relief. They hadn't realized this elder was a Guardian from another world.
"However, while the power is sealed, its existence remains a threat. At some point in the future, it might be reawakened. You must be prepared for larger challenges," the elder stated solemnly.
