Chapter 84 Trials at the Nexus

The ground beneath us trembled as we stood at the edge of the nexus, the air thick with an oppressive energy that seemed to cling to our skin. Each step forward felt like pushing through an invisible barrier, the atmosphere heavy with the weight of the unknown. The landscape around us was a twisted blend of beauty and danger, with trees that glowed with an eerie light and rocks that pulsed with an unnatural energy.

“We’ve come this far,” I said, trying to muster confidence in my voice. “We can’t turn back now.”

Eve nodded, her eyes scanning the surroundings with a mixture of awe and trepidation. “The nexus is close. I can feel it.”

Felix stepped forward, his expression a mask of determination. “Stay alert. The closer we get, the more likely we are to face… whatever it is the nexus has in store for us.”

Sasha’s hands glowed faintly with residual magic as she murmured a protective incantation. “We need to be prepared for anything.”
