Chapter 91 The Edge of the Vortex

As the team gradually approached the vortex of chaos, the surrounding environment became increasingly weird. The sky took on an unnatural purple color, and lightning flashed from time to time, making harsh crackling sounds. Irregular cracks began to appear on the ground, and strange smoke sometimes emitted.

Ebert walked at the front of the group, followed closely by Saraswati. The two were constantly alert, wands ready to cast defensive spells.

"Ebert," Saraswati whispered, "have you felt that the magical energy in the air has become more chaotic?"

Ebert nodded, with a solemn expression on his face: "Yes, we may have entered the outer area of ​​the whirlpool. Everyone should be careful, you may encounter unexpected situations at any time."

At this moment, Elder Anand suddenly stopped and raised his hand to signal everyone to stop advancing. "Wait," he said, "did you hear that?"

Everyone held their breath and listened carefully. At first, they could only hear the whistling of the wind, but gradually, a low humming sound reached their ears. The sound seemed to come from all directions, making people feel uneasy.

"What is this sound?" Lillian asked nervously.

Saraswati frowned, thought carefully for a while, and then said, "If I guess correctly, this may be the resonance of chaotic energy. I have read similar descriptions in ancient books."

Ebert nodded: "It sounds very possible. We must be more cautious."

At this moment, the ground suddenly shook violently. A huge crack quickly expanded in front of the team, dividing the team into two. Ebote, Saraswati and Elder Anand were trapped on one side of the chasm, while the others were on the other side.

"Stay back!" Ebert shouted, pulling Saraswati and jumping back.

A powerful magical energy emerged from the crack, forming an invisible barrier that completely separated the two sides.

"Is everyone okay?" Elder Anand called to the other side of the crack.

"We're fine!" Lilian replied, "But the crack is too wide and we can't jump across it!"

Ebote and Saraswati looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.

"We have to find a way to reunite," Ebert said. "It's too dangerous to separate."

Saraswati nodded, then closed her eyes, as if feeling the magical energy around her. Suddenly, she opened her eyes, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes.

"Ebert," she said excitedly, "I think we can use chaos energy to create a bridge!"

Ebert looked at her in surprise: "You mean, using chaos energy to fight chaos? This is too risky!"

Saraswati said firmly, "But this may be our only option. Remember what we discussed before? The connection between magic and emotion. If we can infuse our will into the energy of chaos, maybe we can briefly control it."

Elder Anand nodded thoughtfully: "This idea is bold, but it is indeed possible to succeed. However, this requires great concentration and magic control."

Ebert took a deep breath and said firmly, "Then let's try it. Saraswati, let's do it together."

The two stood at the edge of the crack, holding hands, closing their eyes and concentrating. They slowly extended their magic power and carefully touched the chaotic energy.

At first, the energy was violent and uncontrollable, almost swallowing their consciousness. But Ebote and Saraswati were undeterred. They imagined their love for each other, their concern for their companions, and their determination to complete their mission. Gradually, the chaotic energy began to become docile.

"Keep going!" Elder Anand encouraged, "You are doing a great job!"

Ebote and Saraswati had beads of sweat on their foreheads, but they did not give up. They continued to channel that energy, slowly shaping it into the shape of a bridge.

Finally, under everyone's surprised eyes, a bridge made of purple energy spanned the crack. The bridge deck looks a little unstable, but it is solid.

"It's amazing!" Lillian exclaimed.

Ebert opened his eyes, with a tired yet satisfied smile on his face: "Quick, come here while the bridge is still there!"

The other team members carefully walked onto the energy bridge. Although the bridge flashed or vibrated from time to time, everyone passed safely in the end.

The moment the last person stepped onto the safe zone, the energy bridge suddenly collapsed and turned into wisps of purple smoke that dissipated in the air.

"You did it," Elder Anand said in admiration. "This is incredible magic control."

Saraswati smiled and said, "This proves our theory correct. Magic is indeed closely connected with emotions."

Ebert nodded, then looked around: "But we can't let down our guard yet. It seems that the influence of the Chaos Vortex is more powerful than we imagined. We must find the core of the vortex as soon as possible to prevent it from continuing to expand."

At this moment, a strange sound came from the distance, like the howling of some kind of creature, but with a metallic echo.

"What is that?" Lillian asked nervously.

Elder Anand's expression became serious: "If I guessed correctly, it might be the Chaos Guard. It is mentioned in ancient books that in the core area of ​​the Chaos Vortex, there will be some creatures formed from pure Chaos energy guarding it. "

Ebert tightened his grip on the wand: "It seems that we are not far from the target. But at the same time, the danger is getting closer and closer."

Saraswati said firmly: "Whatever lies ahead for us, we will face it together."

Ebert glanced at her gratefully, then turned to the others: "Are you ready? The next journey may be more difficult."

Everyone nodded, with determination on their faces.

"Then," Ebert took a deep breath, "let us move on. For the future of the magical world, we must stop this vortex of chaos."

The team set off again, heading towards the mysterious and dangerous core area. Although the road ahead is full of unknown challenges, with each other's support and their newly discovered magic theory, they believe they will be able to overcome all difficulties.

The core of the chaotic vortex is waiting for them, and a battle that will change the fate of the magical world is about to begin.
