Chapter 223 Who is she?
Chapter 223 Who is she?
In an instant, the huge stone door, which had been tightly closed for a long time, emitted a deep and heavy sound, as if a giant beast that had been sleeping for thousands of years was awakening from its long slumber, and began to slowly open to both sides.
As the stone door moved, a dazzling light surged out from the crack in the door like a tidal wave, instantly illuminating the entire dark space.
As the stone gate opened completely, a dazzling light shone directly into Huan Yue's eyes, making it almost impossible to look directly at him.
After my eyes adjusted to the bright light, I finally saw what was inside the door—an exquisitely crafted box, exuding a mysterious aura, was quietly floating in mid-air.
The box is made of a strange material, with exquisite patterns and designs carved on its surface, shimmering with a captivating luster, as if it contains endless mysteries and power.
Without a doubt, the secret of the pendant that has been sought after is likely hidden in this box.
However, just as Huan Yuechu was cautiously approaching the box.
Suddenly, a sharp, piercing whistling sound came from all around.
Immediately afterwards, countless phantom swords appeared out of thin air like dense raindrops.
And it shot towards her with lightning speed!
Each of these phantom swords was incredibly sharp, gleaming with a cold light and exuding a fierce aura that sent chills down one's spine.
Faced with such a sudden and extremely dangerous attack, Huan Yuechu did not panic.
She flashed away, dodging the first few phantom swords that attacked her as swiftly as a ghost.
At the same time, she made a series of hand seals and chanted incantations, casting a magical spell.
The phantom swords that were originally heading straight for her seemed to be drawn by some powerful gravitational force, changing direction and colliding with each other.
A series of crisp metallic clanging sounds rang out, and countless sparks flew everywhere.
These phantom swords somehow managed to neutralize each other's power in mid-air.
Finally, she reached the box, opened it, and found only a note inside.
"When I first saw her, she was like a fairy descending to earth. Suddenly, her graceful figure burst forth with a dazzling, soft, and beautiful light."
This ray of light was like the first golden ray of sunlight breaking through the dawn, warm and bright.
It instantly dispelled the layers of black mist that had enveloped me, illuminating the entire dark and gloomy space.
Huan Yuechu stared intently at the yellowed slip of paper in her hand, the few lines of flamboyant handwriting filling her with doubt and confusion.
Who left behind such a mysterious message? And who is the "she" mentioned so many times?
Filled with suspicion, Huan Yuechu gently turned the note over, and saw a line of delicate handwriting on the back: "To know the truth, keep moving forward."
Huan Yuechu bit her lip tightly. After a fierce internal struggle, she finally made up her mind to continue exploring in the direction indicated by the note.
She carefully walked around the stone platform where the exquisite boxes were placed, and her gaze immediately fell on the entrance to the narrow passage behind her, which was only wide enough for one person to pass through.
After entering the passage, a faint blue light flickered around her, as if countless ghostly eyes were watching her every move.
The eerie atmosphere sent a chill down Huan Yuechu's spine.
But her intense curiosity compelled her to muster her courage and slowly move forward, step by step.
As she ventured deeper into the passage, the walls on either side began to flash with eerie and strange images from time to time.
The images resembled ancient war scenes, with shouts of battle and the clash of weapons rising and falling.
However, no real sound could be heard at all, just like watching a silent horror movie without any background music.
Just as Huan Yuechu was completely absorbed in these strange sights, a fork in the road suddenly appeared not far ahead.
The passage on the left was shrouded in a thick layer of white fog, making it impossible to see what was inside.
Meanwhile, from the passage on the right, low, muffled roars could be heard from time to time.
The sound was like a ferocious beast from the depths of hell, sending chills down one's spine.
Huan Yuechu stopped and stood at the crossroads, lost in thought for a moment.
Faced with these two drastically different choices, she took a deep breath and resolutely stepped into the passage on the left, shrouded in white mist...
The moment I stepped into the white mist, the surrounding scenery changed abruptly as if by magic.
In the blink of an eye, a magnificent peach blossom forest appeared in what was once an empty place.
Countless delicate pink petals fluttered down from the branches, as light and beautiful as snowflakes.
Just then, the figure of a woman dressed in a white dress quietly appeared not far ahead.
Her graceful figure was exactly the same as the description on the note!
Huan Yuechu's heart skipped a beat. Without thinking, she hurriedly chased after the woman, shouting, "Who are you? Wait for me!"
However, no matter how she called out, the woman in front of her did not respond and continued to walk forward like a ghost.
Huan Yuechu followed closely in the footsteps of the woman in white, and before she knew it, she arrived at the shore of a shimmering lake.
Just as they were about to catch up with her, the mysterious woman suddenly vanished without a trace.
Huan Yuechu stopped anxiously, looking around for the woman's whereabouts, but to no avail.
Left with no other choice, she lowered her head and gazed at the calm, mirror-like lake.
This discovery revealed a completely different scene clearly reflected in the lake: a handsome man was standing intimately with the woman in white from before, chatting and laughing together.
Looking at this warm and beautiful scene, Huan Yuechu couldn't help but widen her eyes, her heart filled with doubt and curiosity.
She instinctively reached out and gently touched the surface of the lake, trying to sense the secret behind this strange sight.
However, the moment her fingertips touched the water, the entire scene shattered instantly, dissipating into countless shimmering points of light.
Huan Yuechu stared blankly at the empty lake, her doubts growing heavier.
She simply couldn't understand what kind of untold story was hidden here.
Filled with questions, Huan Yuechu slowly stood up and began to re-examine the peach grove around her, which seemed peaceful and serene but actually concealed many mysteries.
A gentle breeze blew by, and the pink petals swayed softly, as if whispering something to her...
Suddenly, a melodious yet poignant flute melody drifted into my ears.
