Chapter 238 Heart's Blood?
Chapter 238 Heart's Blood?
After calming down a bit, the two of them came to their senses and continued to examine the mysterious mountain.
After careful observation, they discovered that the entire surface of the mountain was almost entirely covered with dense, ancient, and obscure runes.
These runes intertwine and intertwine, forming an intricate pattern that seems to contain endless mysteries and power.
These runes, like marks left by time, emit a faint yet striking light.
They seem to be telling the secrets of ancient times, containing endless mysterious power waiting for people to explore and unravel.
The man walked forward with steady steps, his eyes fixed on the mysterious runes, as if trying to see through them to uncover the secrets hidden deep within.
His brows furrowed slightly, his gaze sharp, not missing a single detail.
As time ticked by, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense.
Finally, as if he had made a discovery, the man slowly turned his head to face Huan Yuechu beside him and spoke.
"After careful observation and research, I believe that the information recorded on these runes is the key to the next level."
"However... to unlock this barrier, we must pay a price—each person needs to offer a drop of their heart's blood."
Before he could finish speaking, Huan Yuechu, standing to the side, extended her right hand without hesitation and lightly flicked her index finger.
It was like tearing through a thin sheet of paper, leaving a shallow cut on her snow-white, delicate chest.
In an instant, bright red blood slowly flowed from the wound, like a thin red stream, sliding down her smooth skin.
Huan Yuechu remained unmoved. She carefully squeezed the skin near the wound with her fingers, trying to make the blood flow out faster.
Soon, a crystal-clear drop of blood gradually formed on her fingertip, like a dazzling ruby, shimmering with a captivating luster.
Then, she took a deep breath, raised her arm slightly, and flicked the drop of blood toward the stone door.
The blood droplet traced a graceful arc in the air before landing precisely on the stone gate.
The moment the blood droplet touched the stone door, the previously tightly closed stone door began to emit a low rumbling sound and slowly moved to both sides.
At the same time, a powerful suction suddenly came from behind the door, like an invisible giant hand, which abruptly pulled the two people standing in front of the door and the little spirit beast into it.
They only felt a blur before their eyes, and their bodies were involuntarily pulled forward by this force.
After much effort and several twists and turns, they finally managed to regain their footing and their feet were able to firmly plant themselves on the ground once again.
When they calmed themselves down and looked around, they were astonished to find themselves in a completely unfamiliar and mysterious space.
The man's heart skipped a beat, and the slight doubt he had about Huan Yuechu's identity surged up like a tidal wave.
He stared wide-eyed at the seemingly frail woman before him, pondering to himself.
"Just who is she? How could she single-handedly open such a bizarre and unpredictable place..."
This strange space seemed to be its own world, surrounded by towering crystal pillars that reached into the clouds.
These crystal pillars are crystal clear and emit a faint glow, like a dreamlike wonderland.
However, what is truly chilling is that each pillar contains a unique and previously unseen creature sealed inside!
Some resemble ferocious monsters, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws.
Some are ghostly in shape, appearing and disappearing unpredictably.
Others resemble human figures, each with a different posture.
They were imprisoned inside the crystal pillars, unable to break free, yet they exuded a chilling aura.
In the very center of the space, a soft light was quietly suspended.
The light was not dazzling, but rather gave people a warm and peaceful feeling.
Presumably, the source of this light is the source of purification they have been searching for all along.
They finally made it closer to their destination, albeit with some close calls.
However, just as they were about to reach their target, the already dimly lit environment was suddenly enveloped by a thick fog.
This sudden turn of events put them in a state of tension instantly, greatly limiting their vision and making it difficult for them to see the road ahead.
Just then, a dull thud was heard, and the solid ground beneath their feet collapsed without warning!
Amidst gasps of alarm, they fell together into a secret chamber buried deep underground, filled with strange runes.
But just then, the little spirit beast that had been by his side seemed to sense something was amiss.
Its bright eyes scanned the surroundings before finally settling on the wall on one side of the secret room.
It turned out that a mysterious pattern was hanging there. After careful observation, the little spirit beast was pleasantly surprised to discover that this pattern was actually the key to deciphering the runes in this place!
After obtaining this important clue, Huan Yuechu and the man accompanying her immediately took action.
The two worked closely together, following the instructions in the diagram, and united in their efforts to unleash their spiritual power in an attempt to break the complex and intricate rune seals.
Time passed by, minute by minute, thanks to their persistent efforts.
Finally, a crisp sound was heard—the rune seal was successfully broken!
Immediately afterwards, a heavy stone door slowly opened, and a dazzling light shone from within.
While this light brings a glimmer of hope, it also subtly reveals a chilling sense of danger.
Huan Yuechu turned her head and met the man's gaze.
Without much verbal communication, they could already see the determination in each other's eyes.
Even if the road ahead is fraught with peril, in order to completely eradicate the evil thoughts that have been raging within the man's body for so long.
They too must resolutely step into the world beyond the door to seek the truth.
Seeing this, the little spirit beast followed its master closely without hesitation, stepping together into that door full of unknowns...
What awaits them?
Is it truly possible to eliminate evil thoughts from a man's body as desired?
All the answers are still hidden deep within this mysterious realm, waiting for them to uncover them one by one.
Upon entering the gate, the light was so dazzling that they had to close their eyes.
After my eyes adjusted to the light, I opened them and saw that all around me were flowing orbs of light, moving as if they were alive.
The man felt a surge of evil intent stirring within him, as if it were about to break free and burst forth.
At this critical moment, Huan Yuechu reacted quickly and caught the swaying man.
At that moment, the little spirit beast that had been quietly waiting to the side suddenly seemed to sense some danger.
It let out a low roar into the air, seemingly issuing a stern warning to some unknown entity.
