Li Rui was feeling extremely frustrated at this moment. Being pressured like this, he couldn't do anything. If he were hit by that energy ball, things would become unpredictable.
Helpless, he had no choice but to agree. Little did they know that in the next second, the energy ball rushed towards Li Rui and entered his body, startling him.
He had no idea what was happening. Suddenly, hundreds of energy balls appeared in his consciousness. Perhaps he understood that an explosion would occur.
Could this be some kind of pact between him and them?
As the energy ball entered, the skeletons in the surroundings gradually dissipated, as if nothing had happened at all. The current situation was bizarre; he had no idea what was going on.
Now, with a hundred energy balls surrounding Li Rui, it posed a threat that he had to clear away first.
It seemed there was no exit in the surroundings; no wonder Mo Ruxi couldn't come in earlier! It was truly unexpected. Now, as Li Rui felt utterly frustrated about how to get out, he wondered what to do.
Everything just kept coming at him. In just a few moments, with a whoosh, Li Rui disappeared from his spot and suddenly appeared beside Mo Ruxi.
If it weren't for the map he had on him, he might have thought everything that just happened was a dream!
"What's wrong? You look like you're not all there."
Li Rui forced a smile and shook his head. He still couldn't figure out what had just happened; the feeling was quite unexpected. Little did they know that in the next moment,
the two of them set off towards the location marked on the map.
Fortunately, it wasn't far from where they were. After experiencing what had just happened, their journey went very smoothly; it seemed nothing disturbed Li Rui and Mo Ruxi at all.
"That's right! This is the location mentioned. What do they want me to come here for?" Li Rui frowned, looking at the map in his hand and then at the surroundings beneath his feet.
All around was just an open space, and ahead was a cliff. If he fell down, Li Rui certainly didn't think he would survive.
If they wanted him to jump down, Li Rui was absolutely unwilling; wasn't that just looking for trouble?
Suddenly, a series of footsteps echoed in the distance. Li Rui and Mo Ruxi quickly hid, wanting to see who was coming.
At the same time, two pairs of eyes suddenly discovered something incredible; this was simply...
They saw a giant walking towards them from mid-air above the cliff, as if there was a path in this space. Could it be that he really had to walk over like that?
"Minions of the Night, why aren't you coming out? Do you think I won't find you just because you're hiding in the bushes?"
Li Rui frowned; being discovered so quickly was indeed a bit surprising! And listening to his tone, it seemed to carry a hint of hostility.
Li Rui had no choice; since he had been found out, he couldn't stubbornly deny it. He then stepped out with Mo Ruxi.
In the next moment, things changed once again. Suddenly, for some reason, the giant knelt down before Li Rui.
This scene felt somewhat familiar; it seemed like something similar had just happened. He really didn't know what this giant was trying to express.
Li Rui wanted to ask what was happening here, but he felt that everything seemed particularly sudden and eerie, as if it had never followed the original course.
"The Water Fire Staff in your hand has already determined everything."
Li Rui was about to say something but swallowed it back down. He then learned from the latter that there was something needed inside the cliff here.
"Hmm? What does this mean?"
"You'll know when you walk over. The previous person only mentioned this to us, but never explained why we had to do it this way. Moreover, only one person can enter at a time, and that item in your hand is the key to open the door."
This...
Li Rui was once again stunned in place, and Mo Ruxi was also confused. They wanted to follow the latter inside, but they were stopped by a giant. The latter's current physical condition wasn't great, and seeing that this giant seemed to have no... she just didn't say anything.
Only leaving behind a sentence, "Hurry up, I'm waiting."
Li Rui nodded calmly and then stepped forward.
Little did they know, this cliff was indeed very strange; it felt as if there was some kind of "field" in mid-air. When walking on it, there was no sensation of being in the air at all; it felt more like walking on a road alone.
Li Rui couldn't help but look back, suddenly shocked—where did the cliff go?
The person who designed this must have incredible abilities; at least that's what Li Rui thought.
Not knowing how long he had been walking, he suddenly saw two old men engaged in a game. A sudden curiosity compelled Li Rui to approach.
The entire chessboard was particularly strange, and it seemed that the Red Side was about to lose. No matter where the Black Side moved next, they would win.
However, the old man on the Red Side looked at the entire chessboard without a hint of panic in his eyes, as if he were contemplating something. The scene was quite comical.
Suddenly, Li Rui saw a glimmer of hope, yet he had never spoken up; perhaps this was the beginning of a decisive moment.
Sure enough, in the next second, the old man from the Red Side had already taken the step that Li Rui had just contemplated. The latter was eager to express his thoughts, but little did he know that the phrase "A true gentleman does not speak while observing a game" flickered in his mind.
As the game concluded, Li Rui was about to step forward to greet them when, in a daze, he realized that the two old men had vanished without a trace. This was truly bizarre.
Li Rui couldn't help but shake his head and smile wryly. Just as he intended to move forward, he seemed to bump into something, jolting him awake.
In the following moments, Li Rui glanced back and was astonished to find that the environment had changed; everything had come so suddenly, presenting an entirely different scene.
This...
Li Rui frowned slightly. This time, he saw a child who seemed to be engaged in some sort of play. The child's movements appeared playful, yet his steps looked eerily precarious, as if...
Li Rui kept watching the child's steps, each one seeming as if he might fall at any moment. However, contrary to what the latter expected, nothing happened next.
