The disappearance of dark creatures did not bring a moment of tranquility. On the contrary, as it declined, the black clouds around it became increasingly thick, as if something even more terrifying was brewing. The four of them looked at each other, and the tension in their hearts was constantly deepening.
We should keep moving forward, "Zeyu broke the silence and said wearily," find a safe place as soon as possible and discuss the next plan
I agree, "Anna nodded and frowned slightly," but we cannot ignore the changes in this land. There may be other enemies lurking around
Yun Yi took a deep breath and looked towards the hills in the distance, whose contours were faintly visible. A sense of unease surged in his heart: 'We're heading that way, the wind on the hill seems calmer than here.'
The four adjusted their state and walked slowly towards the hill. Stepping on the soft soil, the black mist around quietly undulated, as if every step was being watched by an invisible gaze.
As they delved deeper, the temperature gradually decreased, and the surrounding environment became increasingly eerie. The low hanging clouds seemed to be constantly descending, giving a sense of oppression. Mist permeated beneath my feet, making my vision even more blurry.
Everyone be careful, "Lorraine suddenly stopped and looked up at a forest beside her," I think there's something wrong with this forest
Yun Yi followed her gaze and looked. The tree shadows are mottled and gloomy, almost devoid of any vitality, appearing extremely dull. Even the wind appears cautious when passing through here.
We need to be cautious, "Zeyu analyzed in a low voice," this area may be a nest of dark creatures, try not to enter
The four of them quietly moved forward, trying to avoid the forest as much as possible. But just as they passed by the forest, a faint whisper could be heard in their ears, like a whisper drifting in the wind, making them feel uneasy.
Listen... did you hear anything? "Anna's face turned pale, with a hint of unease flashing across her face.
I heard it, it's like... it's like someone is talking, "Lorraine clenched her fists, feeling increasingly nervous.
Ze Yu frowned and tried to hold his breath, listening carefully: "The sound is a bit strange, like a kind of inducement... Let's leave here quickly
Before the words could finish, some blurry figures gradually appeared in the woods behind them, as dark and unpredictable monsters slowly approached them. The whispers became clearer and clearer, like countless voices intertwined, making people uneasy.
Run! "Yun Yi let out a low drink, ignoring his thoughts, and charged forward first.
Four people followed closely behind and ran desperately towards the direction of the hill. The whispers coming from behind lingered like ghosts, and I couldn't help but shiver all over my body.
Keep running! "Anna shouted, trying not to let fear erode her beliefs.
As they ran, black shadows quickly emerged from the forest, and a colorful black mist, like an endless black tide, swept towards them.
Block it! "Zeyu observed from the side, instantly activating the power of the element, and the flames formed a protective barrier in his palm.
Anna's radiance also rose, and the two blended together to form a powerful resistance. Until the black mist came into contact with the flames, a dazzling light suddenly burst out, and the shock wave tore apart the surrounding black shadows in an instant, but the whispers still lingered in my ears like ghosts.
Hurry up! We can't stop! "Lorraine held Anna's hand and continued running forward, as if there was an invisible force pulling them behind her.
Finally, they quickly passed through the gloomy forest, facing the bright hills. The undulating terrain blocked the darkness behind them, and the four finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately... it's safe for now, "Zeyu felt relieved, his heart beating violently, and his overly tense emotions began to ease.
But we can't stay long, this place is still full of danger. "Yun Yi's gaze locked onto the distant hill, quickly adjusted his state, and decided not to stay any longer.
The four of them continued to advance towards the hill, gradually approaching the summit. The fog around them seemed to become heavy and dense, and the clarity ahead became lower and lower. The sound of footsteps echoed in the open environment, and countless unknown crises were hidden beneath the calm surface.
Look over there, there's light! "Lorraine suddenly pointed to the top of the hill, a faint light shining through the thick fog as if guiding them in their direction.
Let's go! "Yun Yi's eyes flickered with determination as she ran towards the light with Lorraine.
As they approached the light source, the four of them noticed that the mist around them gradually became thinner, and finally emerged from the darkness, standing at the top of the hill with a brilliant light in front of them. The mountaintop formed a bizarre and beautiful scene, with golden radiance shining like sunlight, hazy and holy.
Beautiful... "Anna looked at the scene and suddenly felt warm in her heart.
Don't let your guard down! "Zeyu, however, tensed up his nerves and observed around, feeling that this light was not simple in his heart.
At this moment, the premonition in my heart quickly came true. The center of the hill suddenly shook, and the radiance gathered rapidly, instantly becoming extremely hot and emitting a dazzling light.
Quickly dodge! "Yun Yi quickly responded and immediately retreated backwards.
However, a blurry figure gradually emerged in the light, seemingly an existence interwoven with light and shadow, majestic and mysterious. Its appearance raised an unprecedented sense of oppression in the hearts of the four, making it impossible to approach or escape.
You... have finally arrived. "A low and echoing voice sounded over the hill, as if from a deep soul." After spending so much time, are you ready to face the challenge
Who are you? "Yun Yi dared not approach lightly, wary of geological questions.
I am the guardian of this land, responsible for guarding and inheriting the secrets of darkness and light. A strange radiance flickered between the images, as if speculating on their purpose.
Do you know what we are looking for? "Lorraine gathered her courage and asked with effort.
Of course, I know your pain and struggle, but behind every problem comes a cost. "The image gradually became clearer, and his figure was like a deity wrapped in light, seemingly controlling everything.
The cost? "Anna's heart skipped a beat, feeling inexplicable unease.
The strength and determination of each of you will be tested at this moment. If you want to continue moving forward, you must face your own darkness. "The voice of the Guardian was as loud as a bell, shaking the souls of the four.
The four of them looked at each other, with various doubts and fears intertwined in their hearts, ultimately converging into a belief. They understand that this is not just a test of strength, but also a test of inner emotions and beliefs.
Okay, we're ready. "Zeyu didn't back down and took a step forward, resisting his inner fear.
Please guide us, "Yun Yi clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with indescribable determination.
Before the words could finish, a strong vibration came from the interweaving of light and darkness, followed by an invisible pressure. As the pressure spun low, the four of them stood side by side again, ready to face the upcoming trial.
Dark and misty, the four of them embarked on a journey of their souls, facing their own inner darkness and struggles. In this unknown challenge, only mutual trust and support can guide them out of the fog and towards the dawn of hope.
