Glamorous Journey Of The Female Protagonist

Li Ming smiled softly as she took his hands in her own before she answered, "To be honest, I'm not sure what's going to happen when I'll use my spells on the black mist. It is indeed a dangerous idea but an essential idea too. We need to take this chance but I promise that I'll look after myself."

She was hoping for him to understand that she could no longer back off just because she was not aware of the dangers that were waiting for her.

She could no longer risk the safety of the Demon Realm and Hei Long. She could feel it in her heart that both of them were drifting away from her and if she failed to save them now, then it was going to be her biggest regret.

How could Zhang Yong not see the emotions and desperation that were swimming in her eyes very clearly? 

A sigh escaped his lips as he pulled the girl into his warm and soothing embrace, making her relax immediately.

"If this is what you want to do then I'll support you. I'll watch over you while you perform the spells. Alright?"

Li Ming did not waste any time as she hurriedly nodded her head, happy for his understanding and support.

Soon after, she settled down in lotus position in the very center of the small stone bridge while Zhang Yong sat just a few feet away, facing her as he called out his dragon spirit to watch over their surroundings.

His eyes were fixed on her as his spiritual energy came out to surround both of them in a protective barrier.

Li Ming channeled a little amount of her spiritual essence into the barrier, adding more strength to it.

She spared a quick look at the Shadow Lord and found him looking back at her. She could see the concern in his eyes. He was worried about her safety but he wasn't planning to stop her.

She gave him a small nod before she closed her eyes and called her magical essence.

Her soul which was now connected to both magic and spiritual qi was far more powerful and stronger than it was a few years ago.

She let out a very small amount of her qi in the air. It was so small in amount that it was barely noticeable.

She could have cast a hiding spell on it to keep it hidden from the black mist that was present around her but she did not.

The reason was simple - she wanted the black mist to notice her spiritual qi and attack it.

While her spiritual qi was wandering around to grasp the attention of the evil mist, Li Ming decided to cast some spells that would save the rest of her body and spiritual ocean from the attack of the evils.

It did not take long before the black mist noticed the presence of her pure spiritual essence trying to pass through unnoticed.

Just like Li Ming predicted, the evil mist took her bait as it immediately launched an attack on her spiritual energy.

She waited until the mist was close enough before she started chanting the ancient spell that she had learned a very long time ago.

Even before the black mist could realize exactly what was happening, Li Ming already had it under her control. 

She connected her spiritual qi with the essence of the black mist as she continued to chant the spell, her body, soul, and powers suddenly started fighting as they tried to pull away from the darkness and evil that the mist carried.

However, Li Ming persisted, and soon enough her spiritual qi was connected with the black mist and was completely hidden under the darkness and evil that it carried.

Since that single patch of mist was under her control, she directed it towards its core. She wanted to find the source of the black mist.

For some reason, she had a feeling that this black evil mist would be one of the greatest obstacles in her path if or when she decided to fight against the evil Valkyrie.

Li Ming found the surroundings darkening as the black mist took her towards the Death Valleys that were located at the southern end of the Evernight Province.

She tried to look past the fog and when her eyes finally landed at the landscape down below, she was completely taken aback.

Everything was black or white. There was not a single shade of any other color anywhere in the sight. 

She recalled the dreams that she used to see about the darkness that was present in the Demon Realm. The same black and white world used to appear in those dreams.

She felt her heart filling with pain as she watched the current state of the Demon Realm which was completely under the darkness of the Valkyrie.

Though it felt like hours had passed when they finally reached the outskirts of the Death Valleys, it had probably been just a few minutes in reality.

The first shock that she received was when she watched the black mist, whom she was controlling, transforming into a soldier.

Her eyes hurriedly looked around and she watched in complete horror and shock as more black balls of the evil mist landed near the entrance of the Valley and transformed into soldiers.

Before her mind could process exactly what her eyes were seeing, they were already moving towards the Valley entrance.

They came in front of a mystical door made of stone and she watched as one of the soldiers used some kind of ring to open the door.

She found her mist (soldier whom she was controlling) entering inside the dark passage and soon they were moving down the stairs.

'Turn into your mist form and take a tour through all the areas of this place where you are allowed to enter.'

Li Ming ordered the soldier and soon she found herself moving through dark stairways and passages.

She could tell that they were moving deeper into her enemy's lair and what are the chances that her enemy was already waiting for her arrival?
