Chapter 22 - Back To Reality

Just then, doubts rose in Wei Feng's head. What if the Eternal Bliss didn't work? What if he was taking an even greater risk by feeding this to the creature?

Wei Feng pushed those doubts aside. He knew that he had to take a risk if he wanted to escape from "Danny's Circus". Wei Feng took a deep breath and steeled his thoughts to concerns such as where will Jiu Li be when he escapes?

With the Eternal Bliss ready at hand, Wei Feng retraced his steps back to entrance if the cavern, to the collapsed room, to the room where Wei Feng found the second key adter playing chess with a man, and back to the door, where the creature was waiting.

Suddenly, realization hit Wei Feng hard. What excuse was he going to make in order to get the creature to eat the Eternal Bliss?

Wei Feng racked his brain, trying to come up with a plausible excuse. He knew that the creature was intelligent and cunning—the creature wouldn't just eat anything he offered it.

After a few moments of deep thought, Wei Feng came up with a plan. He remembered that the creature had been mentioning about feeling restless and unable to sleep. So, Wei Feng opened the door. He walked over to the creature.

"Hey! I've found the key!"

"Oh, how many more keys to you need?"

The creature probed.

"One more"

Wei Feng responded.

"Also, I remember you mentioned having trouble sleeping the other day. Well, while I was exploring the world within the door, I came across a liquid that could potentially help with insomnia and sleeping problems. Would you be interested in trying it?"

Wei Feng beamed.

"Uh...indeed?"

The creature replied, clueless about what was going to happen next. Seeing the creature's expression, Wei Feng insisted,

"You should atleast take a sip!"

Wei Feng wore a concerned expression to prevent any suspicion.

The creature eyed Wei Feng skeptically.

"Are you sure about that?"

"Yes!"

Wei Feng replied enthusiastically.

After a few moments of consideration, the creature finally agreed to take the Eternal Bliss.

Wei Feng watched as the creature drank the solution, his heart pounding in his chest. For a moment, nothing happened. But then, slowly but surely, the creature's eyes began to droop and its movements became sluggish.

Wei Feng watched in amazement as the creature stumbled and fell to the ground, its breathing becoming slow and even. He knew that the Eternal Bliss had worked--the creature was now in a deep and peaceful sleep.

With the creature finally subdued, Wei Feng quickly made his way back to the cavern, the only place that he could go to.

Now lies the question, where is the door Danny mentioned?

Wei Feng searched the cavern, looking for any sign of a door. He combed through every corner, every crevice, every hidden passage, but found nothing. Just as he was about to give up hope, he noticed a strange symbol etched into the wall. It was a circle with a cross in the middle, and it glowed faintly in the dim light of the cavern.

Wei Feng retraced his steps back to the cavern, searching for any sign of the door that Danny had mentioned. He combed through every inch of the cavern, but there was no door to be found. As frustration and despair began to set in, Wei Feng noticed something strange about the walls of the cavern--they seemed to be pulsating and shifting, almost as if they were alive.

Wei Feng cautiously approached the wall, his hand outstretched. As he got closer, he could hear a faint humming noise emanating from the wall. Wei Feng pressed his ear against the wall and listened carefully. It sounded like someone was singing a soft melody on the other side of the wall.

Suddenly, the wall began to ripple and shift, and a small crack appeared in the surface.

Wei Feng's eyes widened in surprise as the crack widened, revealing a small door that had been hidden behind the wall. Without hesitation, Wei Feng pushed the door open and stepped through it.

On the other side of the door, Wei Feng found himself in a dimly lit hallway, with several doors lining the walls.

Among all of the doors, one stood out to Wei Feng. It was the door to the far right, it had three holes, so it should be the door Danny was talking about, right?

Wei Feng rushed to the door and pulled out the key he got from the creature first.

Click!

Then the other one from the room where Wei Feng played chess with the man.

Click!

Lastly, the key within the Bliss Quartz.

Click!

The door opened at last. A familiar darkness surrounded Wei Feng.

Wei Feng found himself back in the room with the computer.
