Chapter 301 Crystal 1
Ling Yu closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled, immersing herself completely in tranquility, focusing intently on receiving more fragments of memory from the mysterious crystal ball.
In these memories, she clearly "saw" the owner of this magnificent castle meticulously design and set up one difficult and dangerous test after another, with the ultimate goal of selecting from among many challengers the one who truly harbored the fire of justice deep in his heart and was unwavering, and passing on his incomparably powerful strength to him (her).
Just then, a sudden change occurred! With a deafening roar, the previously solid and flat floor of the room suddenly cracked open without warning, instantly forming a series of bottomless, crisscrossing ravines. Immediately afterward, a torrent of molten lava, seemingly capable of melting anything, erupted from these ravines like an enraged dragon, shooting straight towards Ling Yu in mid-air. At the same time, a chilling scene unfolded—countless sharp blades suddenly appeared in the air, spinning at incredible speed, raining down on Ling Yu like a dense barrage.
Faced with such a perilous situation, Ling Yu remained calm. Her snow-white wings unfurled, and she soared into the air like a nimble bird, deftly dodging the surging, scalding lava below. However, before she could even catch her breath, the incoming blades were already upon her. In that critical moment, Ling Yu unhesitatingly drew her sword from her waist, its swift strokes creating flashes of cold light as she accurately struck the oncoming blades. In an instant, sparks flew, and the clang of metal on metal echoed throughout the room.
But just as one wave subsided, another arose. While Ling Yu was busy dealing with attacks from the air and the ground, thick, resilient green vines silently sprouted from the surrounding walls. These vines seemed to possess life, twisting and turning nimbly, reaching out to ensnare Ling Yu and attempting to bind her tightly. But Ling Yu would not give in so easily. She chanted incantations, and in the blink of an eye, a ball of eerie blue flame rose from her body, burning fiercely. Those vines that dared to approach, upon touching this strange blue flame, immediately withered and shriveled, as if drained of their life force, and drooped limply.
Despite being surrounded by numerous dangers, Ling Yu showed no sign of backing down. On the contrary, as the challenges increased, her belief in passing the test and inheriting the power grew even stronger. Finally, when all the attacks temporarily ceased, a deep and majestic voice resounded deep within her mind: "Now, prove your courage and wisdom." Before the words had even finished, three ancient and elegant treasure chests suddenly appeared before Ling Yu's eyes. They stood in a row, silently floating in the air, each emitting a unique colored light—red, green, and blue—making them appear mysterious and unpredictable.
Guided by her intuition, Lingyu chose the central treasure chest that emitted a blue light. The chest opened, and a gentle power flowed into her body. She successfully gained the castle's magical power, and the entire castle gradually regained its vitality. Lingyu, empowered by this newfound strength, embarked on a new journey.
Lingyu stepped out of the castle with her newly acquired magical power, only to find that the outside world had undergone a complete transformation. Dark forces had taken advantage of the castle's loss of protection to expand rapidly, destroying villages and displacing countless people. A strong sense of mission welled up within Lingyu.
She arrived at a small town that was being attacked by monsters. Lingyu swung her sword, unleashing the magical power of the castle; with flashes of blue light, a group of monsters were repelled. But soon, even more powerful dark creatures appeared.
As Lingyu pondered a solution, she discovered that her magical power resonated with the surrounding natural forces. She then used the power of the trees and water to create a defensive barrier.
At a crucial moment in the battle, Lingyu grasped a deeper level of how to utilize the castle's power. She channeled this power into the earth, triggering a dazzling blue explosion that annihilated the dark creatures.
The villagers cheered and rejoiced, regarding Lingyu as a hero. Lingyu knew that this was just the beginning; she would use this power to save more places and let light shine on the earth again. So she walked into the distance, her figure gradually disappearing on the horizon.
