"Hey, Lin Xiaoyue, are you scared?" Zhao Ming asked softly in the night breeze. 0
I shivered slightly and honestly replied, "Of course I'm a bit scared." 0
"But we have to do this, right?" After a moment of silence, Zhao Ming gently nodded. 0
Walking at the front, Xuan Zhenzi stood like an indestructible mountain, his back appearing so steadfast yet lonely. 0
"We're almost at our destination," he suddenly stopped and pointed to a bright light ahead. 0
The beam of light grew increasingly dazzling, illuminating our faces and bringing a warm and bright feeling. 0
A warm force surged from the light, wrapping around us tightly, as if telling us that everything would gradually get better. 0
However, the power of those ghostly shadows did not easily give up. 0
They rushed at us like a storm, carrying a fierce intent to destroy everything. 0
Every time those shadows attacked, I could feel my strength and will slipping away quietly from my fingertips. 0
Each attack felt like a desperate struggle against the boundless darkness. 0
"Why does it always have to be like this..." 0
"Why can't I protect everyone..." 0
I murmured softly, my tone filled with self-reproach and unwillingness. 0
Zhao Ming tightly held my hand, his eyes full of determination and encouragement: "Lin Xiaoyue, we can't just give up so easily." 0
"If you back out now, what will happen to the villagers?" 0
I looked up at him; his eyes sparkled like twinkling stars, illuminating the darkness deep within me. 0
"The villagers are still waiting for us with hope." I straightened my back, wiped the sweat from my forehead, and my gaze became more resolute. 0
"So we must lift our spirits and continue to fight bravely until the end!" 0
Zhao Ming smiled slightly, his eyes filled with trust and support for me. 0
Xuan Zhenzi slowly unfurled an ancient-looking scroll filled with incomprehensible strange symbols. 0
He raised his hand without hesitation and said, "This is our last lifeline." 0
Staring at the mysterious scroll, both Zhao Ming and I deeply felt Xuan Zhenzi's unwavering determination. 0
 
 
So we decided to follow his arrangements and began to take action. We quickly prepared the items needed for the ritual; however, the power of the shadows suddenly grew stronger. It seemed they sensed the presence of the light source and began to launch a frenzied attack on us. 0
 
"Zhao Ming! Xuan Zhenzi!" I shouted loudly for them. They immediately ran to my side, and the three of us formed a defensive line back to back, resisting the dark forces attacking from all directions. 0
 
"We need to use the power of light to find the shadows' weaknesses!" I told them emphatically. "Only then do we stand a chance of victory." 0
 
Xuan Zhenzi's tone was filled with unwavering confidence: "Lin Xiaoyue is right; we must act quickly." 0
 
"This is our only hope." 0
 
Both Zhao Ming and I nodded in agreement, ready to follow Xuan Zhenzi's plan. Under Xuan Zhenzi's guidance, we began to set up the formation, taking each step cautiously, afraid of making any mistakes. 0
 
However, the attacks from the shadows became increasingly fierce; it seemed they had caught the scent of the light source and were using all their strength against us. I felt unprecedented pressure and even hesitated for a moment. But Xuan Zhenzi's voice rang out again: "Believe in yourselves; we can definitely do this." 0
