Changsheng: My qualifications improve a little bit every day

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang reacted quickly. They stood back to back, with their swords unsheathed, ready to fight the sudden monster. Although the monster was large, it was extremely agile. Every attack was accompanied by a whistling sound of wind, and its power was amazing.

"Linlang, we need to cooperate tacitly. This monster is extremely powerful. We can't fight it head-on." Fang Yue said to Zhu Linlang while resisting the monster's attack.

Zhu Linlang nodded. She was light and took advantage of her speed to wander around the monster, looking for an opportunity to attack.

Fang Yue faced the enemy head-on, with deep vitality and steady swordsmanship, he resisted the monster's main offensive.

The battle lasted for a while. The monster seemed to realize the extraordinary strength of the two people in front of it, and became more violent, almost using all its strength in every attack. Although Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang cooperated seamlessly, they gradually felt the consumption of physical strength and vitality.

"This is not a solution. We must find its weakness." Zhu Linlang panted. Her clothes were soaked with sweat, but her eyes were still firm.

Fang Yue observed the movements of the monster. Suddenly, he found that every time the monster turned around, there seemed to be a slight depression in its flank. That might be its weak spot. He immediately winked at Zhu Linlang, signaling her to attack the monster's flank.

Zhu Linlang understood. The next moment, she suddenly jumped up like a flash of lightning and stabbed the monster's flank. Fang Yue also exerted force at the same time. The long sword was like a dragon out of the sea, going straight to the heart of the monster.

The monster let out a deafening wail, and finally couldn't hold on. The huge body fell to the ground.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang smiled at each other. Although they were exhausted, they were full of the joy of victory.

"Thanks to you, Linlang. Let's keep moving forward." Fang Yue said, putting away the long sword and reaching out to Zhu Linlang.

Zhu Linlang held Fang Yue's hand and nodded slightly: "Okay, let's leave here quickly to avoid encountering other dangers."

The two took a short break and continued to move forward in the Shiwan Mountains.

Along the way, they were more cautious and kept an eye on the movements around them.

In the Shiwan Mountains, the trees were towering and the branches were lush. The sun could only shine through the gaps between the layers of leaves.

They walked hard on the rugged mountain road, and the fallen leaves under their feet made a rustling sound.

After walking for a while, Zhu Linlang suddenly stopped and listened.

"What's wrong?" Fang Yue asked softly.

Zhu Linlang frowned and said, "I seem to hear some strange sounds, like someone whispering."

Fang Yue also listened carefully, but heard nothing. But he knew that Zhu Linlang's intuition was always sharp, so he became alert.

"Let's be careful, maybe there are other people nearby." Fang Yue said.

They slowed down and continued to move forward. As they went deeper, the strange sound became clearer and clearer.

Finally, they found a cave hidden in the woods.

The sound came from the cave. Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang looked at each other, full of doubts.

What secrets are hidden in this cave?

Is there someone inside, or other unknown dangers?

They approached the cave carefully, and a mysterious atmosphere filled the cave entrance.

Fang Yue drew out his long sword and walked into the cave first. The cave was dark and damp, and filled with a faint fishy smell.

They walked slowly along the passage of the cave, and the strange sound became louder and louder.

As they continued to go deeper into the cave, the sound became clearer and clearer, as if countless whispers were echoing in their ears.

Fang Yue held the long sword tightly, and his eyes scanned the surroundings vigilantly.

Zhu Linlang was also fully focused, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

A faint light flickered on the wall of the cave, as if some mysterious mineral was emitting a faint light.

The passage was winding and seemed to have no end. They were extremely careful with every step they took, fearing that they would trigger some unknown trap.

Suddenly, a black shadow passed over their heads at a very fast speed, leaving only a slight sound of wind.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang felt nervous and stopped immediately. They looked up, but saw nothing.

"There is something strange in this cave." Zhu Linlang whispered.

Fang Yue nodded slightly: "Be careful, we continue to move forward, but we must be more cautious."

As they continued to move forward, the strange sound became more complicated, as if countless sounds were interweaving and arguing.

Gradually, they found a ray of light in front of them. Although the light was weak, it was particularly eye-catching in this dark cave.

They quickened their pace and walked towards the light. As the distance got closer, they finally saw the source of the light.

It turned out to be a huge cave. In the center of the cave, there was a crystal stone emitting strange light.

And the strange sound came from the crystal stone.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang looked at the crystal stone in surprise, full of doubts. What exactly is this crystal?

Why does it make such a strange sound?

They approached the crystal and carefully observed every detail of it.

The surface of the crystal was smooth and emitted a mysterious light, as if it contained infinite power. They tried to touch the crystal, but were blocked by an invisible force.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang looked at each other, both of them were surprised and doubtful. This crystal was obviously unusual. Not only did it emit a strange light, but it also emitted a puzzling whisper. They circled the crystal, trying to find clues from different angles, but the invisible force seemed to form an invisible barrier to prevent them from getting close.

"I feel the power contained in this crystal is both ancient and powerful." Zhu Linlang said softly, her voice seemed particularly ethereal under the resonance of the crystal.

Fang Yue nodded, and after a moment of silence, he said: "We have to be careful, this crystal may be some kind of important magic weapon, or a seal. Those voices may be the soul or power sealed inside."

Zhu Linlang frowned when he heard this: "If it is a seal, then we accidentally broke in. Will it have triggered some mechanism?"

Fang Yue shook his head and comforted: "It seems not yet, but we must act with caution. Perhaps, we can try to use Yuan Qi to explore and see if we can communicate with this crystal."

The two decided to try. They each took a deep breath, condensed their Yuan Qi, and slowly stretched out their hands to the crystal.

Their Yuan Qi gathered like a stream, gently touching the invisible barrier.

At the moment when their Yuan Qi touched the barrier, the crystal suddenly glowed brightly, and the whispers became more intense, as if resisting, and as if telling something.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang immediately retracted their vitality and stepped back cautiously.

They realized that the secret behind the crystal stone was far more complicated than they had imagined.

At this moment, the Netherworld Ancient Bell on Fang Yue suddenly emitted a slight humming sound, as if it had some kind of resonance with the whisper of the crystal stone. This sudden change made Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang stunned. They did not expect the Netherworld Ancient Bell to have such a reaction.

"Netherworld Ancient Bell... Why did it suddenly react?" Zhu Linlang asked in surprise, her eyes moving back and forth between the crystal stone and the Netherworld Ancient Bell.

Fang Yue was also confused. He tried to appease the Netherworld Ancient Bell, and at the same time thought to himself: "Is there some connection between this crystal stone and the Netherworld Ancient Bell? Or did it feel the powerful power contained in the crystal stone?"

They decided to try again. Fang Yue held the Netherworld Ancient Bell tightly, and Zhu Linlang condensed his vitality. The two stretched out their hands to the crystal stone together. This time, their vitality and the power of the Netherworld Ancient Bell converged into a stream, gently touching the invisible barrier.

The crystal stone shone brightly again, but this time the whispers became clearer, as if some kind of will was trying to communicate with them. Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang both felt a strong shock. They seemed to hear countless ancient voices, telling stories of the past.

"What...what is this?" Zhu Linlang asked in a trembling voice, her eyes full of shock and confusion.

Fang Yue stared at the crystal stone closely, and said solemnly: "This crystal stone seems to contain an unknown history, and it is conveying some important information to us. We must calm down and listen carefully to these voices, and perhaps we can find the direction for us to move forward."

Zhu Linlang nodded slightly, trying to calm the shock in his heart and concentrate on feeling the whispers. As they focused, the whispers gradually became regular, as if telling an ancient story.

They seemed to see ancient pictures emerging before their eyes: mysterious rituals, powerful forces, fierce battles... Each picture was full of mystery and legend.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang immersed themselves in these pictures, trying to interpret more information from them. They realized that the crystal in the cave might be a key clue, and it might be closely linked to their mission and destiny.

However, just as they were exploring this information in depth, there was a sudden violent vibration in the cave. The light of the crystal began to flicker, as if it was disturbed by something.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang felt nervous, and they immediately became alert and prepared to deal with possible dangers. The vibration became stronger and stronger, and the stones in the cave fell one after another, as if the entire cave was about to collapse.

"No, we must leave here as soon as possible!" Fang Yue shouted.

Zhu Linlang also realized the danger, and they turned and ran towards the exit of the cave. While running, they could still hear the whispers from the crystal, but they had no time to pay attention to it at this time.

They shuttled through the cave, avoiding the falling stones. Finally, they saw the light at the entrance of the cave, and a glimmer of hope surged in their hearts.

Just as they were about to run out of the cave, a huge stone fell from above, blocking their way. Fang Yue swung his sword without hesitation and smashed the stone. They took the opportunity to rush out and escape from this dangerous cave.

Standing outside the cave, Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang were panting, their hearts full of fear. They looked back at the mysterious cave, their hearts full of doubts and sighs.

But before Fang Yue and the others could recover, a dense roar sounded, and then they saw stone coffins slowly floating in all directions.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang widened their eyes and looked at this strange scene in shock. Those stone coffins exuded an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, which made people shudder.

"What...what is going on?" Zhu Linlang asked with a trembling voice.

Fang Yue held the long sword tightly, and his eyes vigilantly scanned the surrounding stone coffins: "I don't know, but it's definitely not a good thing. We have to be careful."

The stone coffins slowly approached, as if an invisible force was controlling them. Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang stood back to back, nervously waiting for the next move of the stone coffin.

Suddenly, the lid of one of the stone coffins slowly opened, and a black mist poured out of it. Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang immediately covered their mouths and noses to prevent themselves from inhaling the unknown mist.

As the mist spread, a vague figure slowly rose from the sarcophagus. The figure looked eerie and terrifying, like an evil ghost from hell.

"What on earth is this?" Zhu Linlang said in horror.

Fang Yue took a deep breath and tried to stay calm: "No matter what it is, we can't back down. Get ready to fight!"

The figure let out a low roar and then rushed towards Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang. Fang Yue swung his sword to meet the attack without hesitation, and Zhu Linlang quickly joined the battle.

They fought fiercely with the figure, and every move was full of strength and determination.

However, that figure seemed to possess great power.

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang's battle with that figure was extremely fierce. Every sword and every move contained their deep vitality and firm will.

However, that figure seemed to possess extraordinary power. Although their attacks were sharp, they were unable to cause substantial damage to it.

"What the hell is this? Why is it so powerful?" Zhu Linlang asked panting while resisting the figure's attack.

Fang Yue frowned, he was also thinking about this problem.

He tried to use his vitality to detect the nature of the figure, but found that its vitality fluctuated extremely chaotically, as if it was made up of countless different forces intertwined.

"I don't know, but its power seems to be a mixture of many different energies, which is unusual."

As Fang Yue said, something suddenly moved in his mind, and he remembered the reaction of the Netherworld Ancient Clock in front of the crystal stone before, "Perhaps, this is related to the crystal stone we encountered before."

When Zhu Linlang heard this, she immediately thought of the strange experience in the cave before: "You mean, this figure may be transformed by some kind of power in the crystal stone?"

Fang Yue nodded: "It's very possible, and we have to deal with it carefully. If my guess is correct, then this figure may be very powerful, and we don't know what other abilities it has."

Just as they were talking, the figure suddenly let out a deafening roar, then grew in size and increased in strength.

When Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang saw this, they immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. They looked at each other, and without any need to say anything, they both understood the determination and fearlessness in each other's eyes.

"No matter what it is, we will not back down!" Fang Yue said firmly, the sword in his hand shining with dazzling light, as if responding to his determination.

Zhu Linlang also held the hilt of the sword tightly, her eyes revealing firm belief: "Yes, let's deal with it together!" (End of Chapter)
