A wave of black energy emitted by Malakar shot throughout the room, shaking the building and making the ground tremble. Sai Fan, Nai Seng, and Sei Fun took shelter behind small debris near the altar, while the evil power grew closer.
"We have to stop him!" Sai Fan shouted, his eyes blazing with a fiery golden aura.
"This won't be easy," Nai Seng replied seriously. "Malakar's strength far surpasses ours. But we must not give up!"
Sei Fun raised his metal tools, ready to fight. "We need to find a gap, something we can exploit. If not, we'll lose."
Malakar laughed loudly, his voice booming. "You tiny humans will never stop me! My power far exceeds all of you."
He raised his hand, and thick black energy enveloped the room, forming a large spinning energy sphere ready to be thrown at them.
"Now!" Sai Fan shouted, raising his sword and directing his golden aura toward the energy ball.
With all his might, he swung his sword, releasing a golden beam that clashed with the black energy. A huge explosion erupted, engulfing the entire room in alternating flashes of light and darkness.
"This… isn't enough," Nai Seng whispered, gathering blue energy from her staff. She fired a wave of magic toward Malakar, trying to distract him and weaken his power.
At the same time, Sei Fun jumped forward and swung his sword with full force, attempting to create a gap in the enemy's defense.
Malakar held off the attack with his strength but began to look troubled. The energy from his friends was gradually weakening the seemingly unbeatable evil force.
"Then I must intervene myself," Malakar roared.
He released a massive energy from his body, which immediately transformed into a raging dark storm within the room. Strong winds and lightning flashed inside, striking anyone brave enough to approach.
Sai Fan, Nai Seng, and Sei Fun exchanged glances and strengthened their resolve. They knew they couldn't defeat Malakar using ordinary strength alone. They had to harness the power within themselves—inner strength.
"This is the moment to show our true power," Sai Fan whispered, raising his hand and focusing his golden aura even deeper.
He concentrated the energy into his sword, making it shine brightly. With a brave step, Sai Fan leapt toward Malakar, swinging his sword with full force.
"Then I will end this," he declared firmly.
His sword blazed like the sun, slashing toward Malakar, who was raising his hand to unleash his final attack. When the sword touched Malakar's body, a huge energy explosion erupted, filling the room.
That power engulfed the entire center of the power, shaking the ground and causing the sky outside to roil. As the dust began to settle, they saw Malakar sprawled on the ground, looking weak and defeated.
"This… is impossible," he whispered, his glowing red eyes beginning to fade.
"This is not over," Nai Seng whispered as she prepared her last energy. "I will lock this power so it cannot rise again."
Sei Fun helped Nai Seng by directing green energy from his sword into the large crystal on the altar. The crystal shone brightly, absorbing the remaining evil power and stabilizing the center of power.
With their combined strength, the center of power began to tremble and emitted a gentle light. The aura inside the room shifted from darkness to brightness, indicating they had succeeded in controlling the power.
"This… is amazing," Nai Seng whispered in awe. "This power can be used to open a path to another world and prevent evil from rising again."
Sai Fan looked at the large crystal, then turned to his friends. "We must leave here quickly. If not, Malakar's power could revive at any moment."
The three hurriedly left the center of power, passing through the large door which now closed tightly after they pressed a mysterious button. As they exited, the blood-red sky gradually faded to a bright blue, signaling that the great threat was beginning to subside.
"So, what's the next step?" Nai Seng asked, looking toward them.
"Now, we must find a way to enter the true dimension," replied Sai Fan. "We know there's a great power behind all this. And we need to figure out how to use it to save the world."
Sei Fun nodded in agreement. "I feel there's a greater secret behind this power. We need to act fast, because an even bigger danger could be waiting ahead."
They walked away from the center of power, leaving the ruins behind and heading toward a new place full of mystery and adventure. They knew their journey was far from over. There were many secrets to uncover and threats to face.
But one thing was certain: they would never give up. They would keep fighting, no matter what happens.
