Chapter 683 Color
Li Zixue gently stroked the Book of Wisdom, and light shone on it. The pages in the book turned automatically, revealing pictures of unknown areas. "It seems that the Book of Wisdom has chosen our next destination - the Forgotten Land, a place that is said to hide the secrets of an ancient lost civilization."
"The Forgotten Land... sounds like it's full of challenges." There was excitement in the traveler's eyes. The exploration of the unknown always made his blood boil.
Su Mo lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head with a firm look in his eyes, "No matter what awaits us ahead, as long as we unite as one, there will be no difficulties that we cannot overcome. Let our names become synonymous with light and hope."
Just as they were about to step forward, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind them. It was the traveling merchant, with a respectful smile on his face and several packages in his hands. "I have heard about your deeds. These are the supplies I can prepare for you. I hope they can help you in your great journey."
Zhao Ming and the others turned around, surprised and moved. Yueyue quickly stepped forward and took the package from the merchant, with gratitude in her voice, "We will always remember your help. Perhaps one day, our story can inspire others to spread kindness and courage like you."
"Then it's decided, let's march towards the forgotten land!" Zhao Ming raised his arm, and the others responded. The team was filled with high morale and fearless faith.
They set out on a new journey, their backs lengthened in the sunset, each step firm and powerful. The light of wisdom, sword shadows and magic brilliance interweave, bringing an indelible color to this world.
As the team walked further away, the mysterious voice echoed again, this time it seemed to bring comfort and blessings: "Keep going, guardians. In a world where light and darkness are intertwined, your journey will illuminate more hearts, to every corner of the world."
The conversation sounded quietly in the team, which was both a farewell to the past and a declaration to welcome the future:
"No matter what the road ahead holds, as long as we are together, there is no place we cannot reach." Zhao Ming's words were like a vow, firm and warm.
"That's right," Li Zixue responded with a smile, "Let us write legends with our actions and prove that light is always worth pursuing and protecting."
"We are fearless in the face of the unknown." Su Mo's words were concise and powerful. His eyes were deep, as if he had seen the many challenges and glories on the road ahead.
"Yes, a new chapter, a new adventure." The traveler's tone was full of curiosity and expectation about the unknown.
As their conversation gradually dissipated in the wind, the group's figures disappeared over the horizon, leaving behind only a trail of determined footprints and a fearless oath that echoed between heaven and earth, heralding that a new story was about to begin.
Just as Zhao Ming and his party were heading towards the Forgotten Land with hope, the sky suddenly became overcast, the wind blew violently, and an ominous atmosphere enveloped them. On the distant horizon, a group of figures in black robes loomed, approaching quickly with neat steps, and the air was filled with depression and hostility.
"Everyone be careful, it's someone from Xiee's organization!" The traveler was keenly aware of the abnormality and quickly reminded the team. Everyone immediately went on alert, Zhao Ming gripped the hilt of his sword, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.
"Xiee organization? Aren't they a shadow group that only exists in legends? How come they appear here?" Yueyue was a little surprised, and quickly prepared a defensive spell.
"Legend and reality are often only a thin line apart. It seems that our actions have attracted their attention." Su Mo analyzed calmly. He has begun to mobilize his forces to prepare to fight against unknown threats.
"Are they here for the legacy of the Lord of Black Boots? Or have our actions touched upon some greater secret?" Li Zixue gently stroked the Book of Wisdom, and the pages turned automatically, but this time no direct answer was provided. Only a faint uneasiness flowed between the lines.
"No matter what, we can't retreat here. If the Xiee organization wants to stop us from pursuing light, they must get past us first!" Zhao Ming's voice was firm and powerful, inspiring everyone around him.
As the black-robed man gradually approached, the two sides finally faced each other. A tall, thin man in a gorgeous black robe and a silver mask on his face walked out slowly. His voice came out through the mask with a strange echo: "I am an envoy of the Xiee organization. I am here just to propose a deal."
"Deal? What can we trade with you?" Zhao Ming asked, with vigilance in his eyes.
"It's simple. If you give up exploring the Forgotten Land, we promise not to attack your homeland. Otherwise..." The envoy's voice suddenly turned cold, "you will bear the consequences at your own risk."
"Threat? We won't be easily scared." Su Mo sneered, his muscles bulging, obviously ready for a fight.
"Your courage is commendable, but don't underestimate the power of the Xiee organization." The envoy slowly raised one hand, and behind him, the figures of the black-robed men began to condense into dark magic circles, and the fluctuations of magic power made the earth tremble.
"Since we can't agree on anything, let's talk about strength!" Zhao Ming shouted and rushed towards the enemy group first. His sword flashed like a dragon, pointing directly at the envoy.
The battle broke out in the wilderness. Li Zixue's light of wisdom and Yueyue's talismans worked together to build a solid line of defense. Su Mo and the traveler each used their unique skills to engage in fierce confrontation with the man in black.
In the melee, the duel between Zhao Ming and the envoy was particularly eye-catching. The swords of the two crossed each other, and every collision was accompanied by the distortion of space. The envoy's silver mask seemed to hide countless secrets, and his moves were treacherous and changeable, making it difficult to predict.
"Do you think that you few alone can contend with the entire Xiee organization?" the envoy sneered, gathering his magic power and striking down with a heavy blow.
"We never think that we can change the world by ourselves, but we believe in the power of light and justice, as well as trust and persistence in each other." Zhao Ming's response was full of determination. The surging power in his body merged with the sword, cutting off the envoy's offensive.
Just as the battle was at a stalemate, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky, and a beam of dazzling light shot out from it, directly hitting the Xiee Organization's envoy, forcing him to retreat temporarily. The mysterious voice sounded again, with unquestionable majesty: "Xiee Organization, don't forget that the source of all power in the world exists to protect light."
With the intervention of the mysterious light, the offensive of the black-robed men was significantly weakened. Finally, under the unyielding resistance of Zhao Ming and others, the Xiee organization was forced to retreat and disappeared in the storm.
After the battle, everyone stood in the wind, looking at the enemy going away, with mixed feelings in their hearts. Zhao Ming turned to look at his companions, with a tired but determined smile on his face, and said: "No matter what is hidden behind the Xiee organization, as long as we are together, there is nothing we can't overcome."
"Yes, Zhao Ming, the road to light is long and difficult, but we will never give up." Li Zixue's voice was gentle but powerful. The Book of Wisdom emitted a soft light in her hands, as if it was a promise to the future.
"No matter what crises and challenges lie ahead, as long as we have faith in our hearts, no force can stop us from moving forward." The traveler's eyes sparkled with curiosity and desire for the unknown.
Su Mo nodded heavily, clenching his fists. "As long as there is light in our hearts, we will not be afraid of darkness. Let us keep moving forward and bring more light to this world!"
The four of them smiled at each other, and the tacit understanding that needed no words flowed between them. They set out on their journey again. Although the road ahead was unknown and full of challenges, they firmly believed that as long as they worked hand in hand, nothing would be impossible.
With their firm steps, the earth seemed to respond to their faith, everything revived, and the breeze carried the smell of hope. They didn't know how this journey would change their destiny, but the only thing they were sure of was that they were ready to meet all challenges until every corner of the world was bathed in light.
Just as the group was about to continue their journey to the forgotten land, an ominous red cloud suddenly appeared in the sky, and the blood color spread, as if foreshadowing the impending disaster. A gust of wind blew up, mixed with a low chanting sound, which made people feel cold.
"This aura... is not right." Su Mo frowned. His intuition told him that an unprecedented crisis was approaching.
"The Blood Demon... He is the most terrifying killer of the Xiee organization. He is good at controlling blood and shadows. No one has ever seen his true face and survived." The traveler's face became extremely solemn. He looked around and nervously clenched the weapon in his hand.
"It seems that the Xiee organization does not intend to give up." Zhao Ming's expression was serious. He knew very well the difficulty of this encounter, but there was no intention of retreating in his eyes.
Suddenly, the ground cracked, and a figure wearing a blood-red cloak and with his face hidden in the darkness slowly rose up. The air around him seemed to be frozen by the evil thoughts emanating from him. "I am the Blood Demon of the Xiee Organization. Your provocation against us will come to an end here."
The blood demon's voice came faintly, without a trace of warmth. He stretched out his hand, and countless tentacles made of a mixture of shadows and blood suddenly rose from the ground and attacked Zhao Ming and the others frantically.
"Get ready for battle!" Li Zixue shouted, and the Book of Wisdom shone brightly. She quickly flipped the pages, and a series of protective barriers formed around everyone, temporarily resisting the attacks of the tentacles.
The battle broke out again, and this time, the opponent was even more powerful and strange. The blood demon could not only manipulate the tentacles, but also use blood to form various forms of attacks, catching everyone off guard. Every attack by Zhao Ming and his men seemed to hit nothingness, and the opponent's entity seemed to merge with the shadows, making it difficult to capture.
"This is not a solution. We need to find its weakness." Yueyue said breathlessly. Although her talisman could temporarily resist it, it obviously could not last long.
"The Blood Demon uses blood as a medium, so it must have a core to maintain this form." Su Mo said in a deep voice, looking for any possible flaws.
At this moment, Li Zixue's book of wisdom automatically turned to a page with an ancient seal pattern drawn on it, and a note next to it: "The source of the blood demon, the ban of life, requires a pure heart and purified light to break its immortal body."
"Pure heart, purifying light..." Zhao Ming repeated, his eyes suddenly brightened, "I understand, the light and hope in each of our hearts is the key to breaking the darkness!"
At Zhao Ming's call, the four of them formed a circle, gathering their respective beliefs together. A warm and powerful light burst out from their center and shot straight into the sky. In the light, the Blood Demon's figure began to tremble, and the layer of darkness and blood that protected him seemed to be gradually melting away.
"Impossible... I will never be defeated!" The blood demon's roar echoed in the air, but his voice was no longer firm, and the figure under the blood-red cloak seemed a little illusory.
"Nothing is impossible as long as there is light in your heart!" Zhao Ming shouted, and the sword in his hand turned into a dazzling light, piercing straight into the weak point revealed by the Blood Demon.
With a deafening roar, a cloud of blood mist erupted from the blood demon's body, and then quickly dissipated in the air. The tentacles around it lost control and withered and disappeared one by one, and the oppressive atmosphere in the air also dissipated.
After the battle, everyone stood there, looking at the sky that was gradually returning to calm, feeling both relieved and deeply shocked. This victory was not only a conquest of the external enemy, but also a major test of their inner beliefs.
"We did it. Light can always penetrate darkness." Zhao Ming smiled and looked at his companions. There was the same light flashing in their eyes, which was infinite confidence in the future.
"I hope this lesson will make the Xiee organization understand that true power comes from inner light and justice." Li Zixue gently stroked the book of wisdom, and the pages slowly closed, as if this experience had become a new chapter in the book.
"Next, it's time to uncover the secrets of the Forgotten Land." The traveler looked into the distance, his eyes full of desire for the unknown.
"That's right. No matter how many difficulties lie ahead, we will overcome them one by one." Su Mo nodded heavily, his tone firm and full of power.
"Let's go, friends. The Forgotten Land is waiting for us to uncover its truth." Zhao Ming raised his arm and the team was full of energy again, moving forward firmly towards their destination.
As they walked, passers-by looked at them with surprise or awe, and their conversations intertwined into a hymn about bravery.
"Look, those people just fought with the strong men of Xiee Organization, and they are still standing here!" A bearded uncle exclaimed, and said to the child beside him, "Child, remember, that is the power of belief."
The child's eyes widened with admiration: "When I grow up, I want to be a hero like them!"
In the village tavern, travelers sat together, talking about the thrilling scene that had just happened.
"Have you heard? An envoy was repelled by a mysterious light!" A traveler holding a wine glass lowered his voice and said mysteriously. (End of this chapter)
