Mark stood in the dense forest, the sun shone through the gaps in the leaves on his face, bringing a hint of warmth. He took a deep breath, feeling the fragrance of soil and grass in the air, which was completely different from the humid air in the cave. The Ice Abyss Beast paced back and forth at his feet, whimpering from time to time, as if curious and a little uneasy about the sudden light above his head.
"Don't worry, we'll find the way back to the temple." Mark patted the Ice Abyss Beast on the head, with a soothing tone. The Ice Abyss Beast rubbed Mark's hand with its head and calmed down.
Mark looked around, and the scene of the forest was particularly clear under the sunlight. He noticed that there was a stream not far away, the stream was gurgling and clear. He walked over, squatted down, scooped up a handful of stream water and drank it, feeling the coolness brought by the stream. The stream water was sweet, with a hint of mineral taste, which made him feel refreshed.
The Ice Abyss Beast also walked to the stream and lowered his head to drink water. Mark stood up and continued to observe his surroundings. He found that the trees in the forest were unusually tall and the canopy was dense, almost covering the entire sky. The sun could only shine through the sparse gaps, forming mottled spots of light.
Mark walked along the stream, hoping to find a way out. He walked for a while and suddenly noticed that the trees in front seemed a little different. The trees there were arranged unusually neatly, as if they were planted by humans. He quickened his pace, took a closer look, and couldn't help but gasp.
What appeared in front of him was an open area with a huge stone building in the middle. The style of the building was simple and mysterious, and it was obviously built by humans in ancient times. The building was surrounded by a neat row of trees, forming a natural barrier that isolated the building from the outside world.
Mark walked into the building and found a stone door at the entrance. The stone door was engraved with strange runes, similar to the runes on the stone slab he found in the pool, but more complicated. He reached out and gently touched the runes on the stone door, feeling a weak energy fluctuation.
"Is this the entrance to the enchantment?" Mark thought to himself. He tried to use the energy in his body to sense these runes. Suddenly, the stone door gave a slight vibration and then slowly opened.
Mark and Bingyuan Beast walked into the building and found a huge hall inside. There were some stone tables and chairs around the hall, which was obviously the living place of ancient humans. There was a stone platform in the center of the hall, on which were placed some ancient utensils, which were also engraved with runes.
Mark walked to the stone platform and observed these utensils carefully. He found that the runes on these utensils were in the same vein as the runes on the stone door, but more complicated. He reached out and gently touched the utensils, feeling a stronger energy fluctuation.
"There must be some secrets hidden in these utensils." Mark thought to himself. He tried to use the energy in his body to sense these utensils. Suddenly, the utensils emitted a dazzling light, then slowly rose and floated in the air.
Mark and Bingyuan Beast were both startled by this sudden change. They stepped back a few steps and looked at these suspended utensils vigilantly. Suddenly, the light on the vessel converged into a beam and projected onto the wall of the hall, on which a series of pictures of the life of ancient humans appeared.
In the picture, ancient humans and the Ice Abyss beasts hunted, fished, and planted crops in this forest, living in harmony and tranquility. They seemed to coexist harmoniously with nature, without war or fighting. Mark looked at these pictures, and an inexplicable feeling surged in his heart.
Suddenly, a group of people in black robes appeared in the picture. They held strange instruments and chanted something, as if they were performing some kind of ritual. As the ritual progressed, the trees in the forest began to wither, the animals began to die, the Ice Abyss beasts began to go crazy, and the entire forest fell into a dead silence.
Mark looked at these pictures, and a surge of anger surged in his heart. He realized that these black-robed people were probably the predecessors of the Rebirth Organization. He turned and looked at the stone platform, and found that the light on the vessels on the stone platform was even stronger.
"These vessels may contain information to deal with the Rebirth Organization." Mark thought to himself. He walked to the stone platform, stretched out his hand, and tried his best to sense these vessels.
Suddenly, the light from the vessels converged into a beam and projected onto Mark. Mark felt a powerful energy pouring into his body, and his body began to glow, as if it had some mysterious connection with these vessels.
"What's going on?" Mark panicked. He tried to control this energy, but found that he could not resist it. His body became brighter and brighter, and finally turned into a ball of light, suspended in the air.
The Ice Abyss Beast looked at Mark anxiously on the side. It tried to get close to Mark, but was blocked by an invisible force. It roared, as if calling Mark.
At this moment, a series of pictures appeared in Mark's mind, showing the scene of the ancient humans fighting the black-robed people. The ancient humans used the power in these vessels to fight a desperate battle with the black-robed people. In the end, because of the madness of the Ice Abyss Beast, the ancient humans were all killed by the black-robed people, and the Ice Abyss Beast was also taken away by the black-robed people.
Suddenly, Mark's body returned to normal, and he fell back to the ground from the air. He felt that his body was full of strength, as if he had been reborn. All the energy in the vessel was infused into his body, increasing his original energy a bit.
Originally, after being refined by the crystal, the energy in Mark's body was as thin as a stream. At this time, the energy surged like a flood.
