Silence...
In the cavernous chamber, the still drop of water descended from the top, dancing gracefully before landing in a small pool below...
One drop...
A second drop...
The haunting sound continued its eternal echo, a rhythmic cadence that defied the bounds of time.
Within the heart of the pool, Wang Xiao lay in a profound slumber, his stillness undisturbed by breath or movement.
Each droplet of water cascaded directly onto his forehead, a gentle descent in the midst of the ageless symphony, as if nature itself was weaving a lullaby for the enigmatic sleeper.
In this surreal amalgamation of sound and stillness, the mysteries of the underground realm unfolded, obscured by the perpetual darkness and the quiet presence of Wang Xiao at its center.
Amidst the echoing droplets and the profound silence, Wang Xiao stirred.
