Soon above the vast horizon slightly overlapping behind the tall and majestic mountain... floods down a large dark current that couldn't be distinguished from afar.
The earth began to quiver as the air rioted slightly all around the barren land.
What could have caused this phenomenon?... surely such a scene could only be found in movies.
The wave of darkness gradually plunged its way down from the mountain... crushing into many trees and boulders as if they were consumed into the darkness. Vacating nothing behind...
This darkness stretched as far as one's eyes could see from left to right...
Far ahead and above as if there is an infinite amount of them. The cloud high up in the sky had already dwindled its way somewhere else, evidently to be frightened by the sudden ocean of darkness.
As they flooded down onto the plane... thousand of inhumane noises began to rattle all around the territory adding with the already apocalypse-like view a touch of devastation.
*Screech* *Screech* *Screech*!
"Here they come!... quick strengthen the barrier!"
Glimpsing towards the incoming horde...
An intense attitude emerged on Elder Li's complexion as he issued his orders to everyone.
*trembles* *trembles* *trembles*
The footing started to tremble violently as the trees surrounding them began to wobble.
Many of the students began to pray and lowered their breathing...
while gazing at the incoming continuous flood... steering towards every direction... including them.
"Please dear God! please let us live past this ordeal,! please! please!"
"I don't want to die... "
*sobs* *sobs*
"Hey stop that kid from crying... we need to stay focus. Do not let her demoralized us.!"
"Uuhh- I'm sorry! she's my friend... I will quickly tell her!"
"Do it quick!"
"Y-yes!"
Sounds of depressing chattering murmured within the group as some of their moods are compressed with fear and despair.
*Trembles* *trembles* *Trembles*
"Elder Li... if I'm to die here. Please can you take this note and bring it to my wife."
As the flood keeps getting closer and closer...
unaware... a slightly muscular middle-aged man approached Elder Li with a smile on his face as they stared towards the front.
"What are you talking about Elder Fu!... You keep that note to yourself and bring it to your wife on your own!. "
"Well, I already have my copies... I just wanted to prepare a plan B..."
"If something happened to me that is..."
He flings a big smile towards Elder Li as he slowly grabbed a silver envelope from his bag.
"Here... take this..."
"I-..."
"Please Elder Li... as a close friend of mine... please do me this one last favor. Out of all of us teachers. You are the strongest one except for Senior Weyn."
"B-But I"
"Please! Elder Li..."
Elder Fu squeezed the silver envelop into Elder Li's hand as he stared towards his face with a pleading gaze.
"I beg of you..."
"..."
"Fine..."
Hearing this... a happy smile broadened on Elder Fu's face as he stared back to the front with his staff in his other hand.
"Thank you..."
"..."
Elder Li could only sigh helplessly as he also began to glare towards the ever-coming flood.
"Senior Weyn please be safe"
He slowly whispered to himself

*Trembles* *Trembles* *Trembles*
Moments had passed by in an instant as finally, the flood is directly ahead of them...
*Thump* *thump* *thump*
Their heartbeat throbbed violently as beads of sweat started to trickle about on their forehead.
*Gulped*
One of the young men in the slightly exterior side of the group swallowed down his saliva as he glances towards the incoming darkness...
"This is it... 200 Meters..."
" 150 meters..."
He slowly counts down the distance as his voice traveled through the medium... reaching the other.
Stillness jammed the whole space within the barrier as the only voice that could be listened to presently would be the young man's voice.
" 100 meters..."
" 50 meters "
*Gulped*
*Shivers*
Everyone paid close attention to his voice as their eyes locked in towards the front... not a single one of them is free from worries as their heart fluttered heavily.
" 30 meters! "
*trembles* *trembles* *trembles*!
" 20 meters!!! "
*Shakes*
" 10 meters!.."
" Ready for impact!!!"
At the last moment... Elder Li hurriedly shouted as he spread out his palm to the front.
" 3 meters! "
"STAND TALL!!!"
"Arghhh!!!!"
*BOOM!*
Finally, the flood of darkness collided with the barrier as the ground around them began to shudder and tear apart.
*Trembles* *shakes!*
"STAND TALL!!!!!..."
Elder Li yelled once again as the view zoomed out from behind his back towards the sky. Showcasing the whole view of a small circle of light being slammed against the flood of darkness.
