Round 19:

With quick thinking, you seek cover within the chamber, using the environment to shield yourself from the impending shadow wave. You find refuge behind a large pillar, protecting yourself from the darkness that threatens to engulf you.

As the shadow wave subsides, you emerge from your hiding spot, ready to continue the battle. The Shadow Master, weakened by their failed attack, shows signs of exhaustion.

With renewed determination, you launch a final assault, unleashing a flurry of powerful strikes. The Shadow Master tries to retaliate, but their movements are sluggish and their attacks lack their previous intensity.

Your strikes land true, and with a final blow, the Shadow Master dissipates into a wisp of darkness, leaving behind the path to the Earth Crystal.

You approach the pedestal where the Earth Crystal rests, its earthy glow captivating. As you claim the crystal, you feel its grounding energy resonate within you. Three of the Elemental Crystals are now in your possession.

As you exit the Hall of Shadows, you find yourself facing a fork in the path once again. Two tunnels lie before you, each leading to a different part of the Dragon's Cave.

1. Take the left tunnel, leading to the Chamber of Illusions where a mysterious challenge awaits.

2. Take the right tunnel, leading to the Chamber of Trials where you must prove your worth.

3. Search for a hidden passage that may lead to a different part of the cave.

Choose your path wisely, for the challenges ahead will test your skills and determination even further.
