Chapter 71: Another Trial

What was the past and present? There is no return to this journey. "The four of them embarked on their journey home, with Yu Wen, who had just defeated the dark forces, behind them, but an unexplored unknown territory ahead. Reflecting on the vast sky, their hearts were filled with ups and downs that could not be calmed. Although the shackles of the soul have been broken, a new trial seems to be waiting for them again.

On the hillside, Anna took a deep breath of the cool air, mixed with the fragrance of the soil and the freshness of the grass, making her mind settle slightly. But at this moment, there was a faint concern in her heart. The courage she had just fought was still there, but she felt that courage was so short-lived.

I have an ominous premonition, "Anna finally spoke, her voice like a gentle breeze brushing through the treetops, awakening the attention of her companions.

Yeah, even though I defeated the enemy, I always felt like I was shrouded in shadow, "Yao Ji thought, her sword light flickering slightly, reflecting the doubts in her heart.

Zeyu furrowed his brow, and the unease in his heart seemed to accumulate deeper and deeper. The shackles of the past have been broken, but in his subconscious, there seem to be even greater conflicts and challenges hidden. He looked up and gazed at the azure sky, thinking to himself, "I don't know what else is waiting for us ahead

Let's face it together! "Mo Yu was full of confidence, although she also had doubts in her heart, her optimistic spirit seemed to easily dispel the shadow of darkness. She has always believed that as long as her companions are united, she is fearless.

At this moment, the four of them suddenly heard a faint singing sound in the distance, like threads of silk, which shook their hearts. The voice was distant and melodious, seemingly praising some great faith, but also faintly making people feel a cold silence.

What is that sound? "Anna asked, her eyes flashing with vigilance and curiosity.

Perhaps it's an ancient legend or a warning, "Yao Ji couldn't help but doubt again in her heart if she had thought about it.

Anyway, we can't underestimate it, "Zeyu said, raising his sword again and calmly saying," We need to figure it out

The four of them followed the sound and the sunlight shone through the treetops on the ground, guiding the road ahead. As they approached, they finally realized that the singing sounded like a call from the depths of the world, irresistible.

Suddenly, a thick fog appeared ahead, enveloping the forest like a veil, and the surrounding scenery instantly became blurry and mysterious. Despite their trembling hearts, they continued to move forward towards the mist.

Remember to be careful! "Yaoji loudly reminded, unwilling to let anyone inside relax their vigilance.

As time passed, they gradually emerged from the dense fog and entered an ancient altar. The altar was densely carved with various masks and ancient texts, and in the center was a beautiful stone pillar with mysterious symbols flashing on it.

At that moment, an indescribable feeling rose in the hearts of the four of them - a vibration from the depths of their souls, as if calling out the dusty memories.

What is this? "Anna stepped forward and looked down at the stone pillar, feeling an invisible attraction.

This is ancient, the source of human faith! "Mo Yu replied softly, although confused in his heart, he had a faint admiration for it.

The light enveloping the stone pillar grew stronger and gradually turned into an illusory figure. That figure seemed like a divine figure in the human world, with fluttering clothes and deep and gentle gaze, as if gazing at them. The complex emotions in their eyes were elusive.

Do you remember when I used to guide you in the right direction? "The phantom flowed like water, but its voice was warm and long, as if carrying some indescribable secret that had traveled thousands of years.

Who are you? "Yaoji couldn't help but feel a long lost sense of familiarity in her heart, wanting to explore the true identity of that shadow.

I am the embodiment of the faith and soul deep within your hearts, existing in every life and transforming into light and courage. "The voice of the shadow immediately exuded a warmth, but also made people shudder," But it will also mercilessly destroy deep within your hearts

I understand! "Anna's heart trembled as she thought of the pain and hardships she had faced before. She seemed to feel the reality of the pain, the emotion of regret surging like a tide, and the moans seemed to echo in her ears - the regret and unwillingness from the bottom of her heart.

This time, what you need to face is the deepest fear and despair in your hearts. "The voice of the shadow penetrated their souls, as if trying to completely tear apart their hearts.

I... I have overcome my inner demons! "Anna suddenly raised her voice, forcing herself not to recall those trivial past events, but avoiding them did not bring her peace.

Is that so? Can you really get rid of those past shadows? "The shadow's inquiry seeped into Anna's heart like cold water, making her heart too heavy to bear.

Mo Yu's heart was also touched, thinking about the pain and struggle he had experienced before. Under the frost, her heart was constantly struggling: "I... I have never truly given up, and I have never forgotten that sense of loneliness

It's obviously because of fear. Do you think everything has already passed? No, they are still lurking in your hearts. "The voice of the shadow was filled with infinite calmness and depth, with a hint of indifferent smile.

At this moment, the four of them were deeply shocked, as if they had never seriously considered their true feelings inside. The invisible chains have once again entwined, and doubts about each other have instantly emerged in the hearts of the four.

Anna, you have never truly forgiven yourself, "Yao Ji suddenly interjected, her gaze fixed on her like a sharp knife piercing into her heart. And the guilt you suppressed still lingers in your heart

Really? "Anna murmured, tears swirling in her eyes. Those past events emerged like a dream, making her involuntarily lean against the stone pillar, bow her head, unable to face herself.

As a companion, how did you decide to let me face that life and death battle? "Mo Yu's voice was like a cold spear, piercing Anna's most vulnerable place in her heart, making her soul tremble again.

Anna, have you ever thought about whether your own inner pain and dislocation have affected our relationship? "Zeyu's voice, although gentle, contained a silent power.

You guys... "Anna looked up with difficulty, her eyes shining with a heavy luster, and tears finally welled up." I... I'm sorry, I don't want to see such a result

I know you feel guilty in your heart, but facing the narrowness in your heart is difficult to extricate yourself, "Shadow said again." It is necessary to abandon those meaningless burdens in order to continue moving forward

Keep moving forward... we have finally reached this point, but can we continue? "Anna's eyes showed endless confusion, even though there was already some hope deep inside her, the dark shadow seemed to constantly entangle in her heart.

My faith has also experienced hardships and anxiety. But the key is whether it can be broken through. "The shadow kept whispering in her ear, her voice like ripples on the lake, echoing in her ears.

Just as Anna was lost, the ground beneath her feet suddenly trembled gently, and an invisible energy enveloped them for four moments. That force seemed to want to devour the shadow in my heart, announcing the beginning of a decisive battle.

This is a test! "Yaoji suddenly exclaimed, her eyes firm as she continued to face the truth from within. At that moment, she realized that no matter how much she had tortured herself in the past, they were still interdependent companions.

We must unite to overcome these inner demons! "Mo Yu's voice sounded like a drum, awakening new strength in their hearts, and the dim shadows were gradually dispelled by the awakened courage.

Fight for our faith! Whether it's painful or not, we can't give up, "Zeyu said in a deep voice, gazing at the dim shadow ahead, and a sense of unbreakable pride seemed to arise in his heart.

We should not be dominated by fear! "Anna gritted her teeth and realized that only by facing it directly could she let go of her final concerns. She took a deep breath, stood up stubbornly, and repeated, "Let's face it together

As they shouted together, the four light and shadow gradually blended, like a forged sword, piercing straight into the darkness ahead. The light was like dawn, blending through the darkness in their hearts, as if forging an unbreakable force between them.

The test of the soul lies in one's own faith. Now is your moment! "The voice of the shadows gradually cleared away their confusion, went against the current, and penetrated the deepest weakness of the soul.

The darkness is gradually engulfed by light, symbolizing their past pain and fear, while also nurturing hope for the future. Finally, the four of them tenaciously emerged from those shadows and headed straight towards the rebirth of their souls, as if they had undergone a complete transformation.

The darkness gradually dissipated, and the figures of the four seemed to sublimate in the radiance. The pain in the heart turns into wings, emitting brilliant radiance and cleansing every heavy soul.

We have already walked through the past, welcoming the dawn of tomorrow. "Anna's eyes regained their firmness and vitality, and clear tears shone in her smile.

With firm beliefs, the four stood at the top of the ancient altar, gazing ahead. They are well aware that on this unknown path, they are about to embark on even more difficult trials, but they are no longer their past selves.

As long as I move forward bravely, I will never fear any test again! "Yao Ji smiled slightly, and through her firm gaze, it could be seen that she was no longer the hesitant girl of the past.

Our story also needs to continue, and this will be a brand new exploration. "Mo Yu's tone was gentle, but full of indomitable faith, as if this was the future she wanted to pursue.

Let's write our own destiny together! "Zeyu clenched his hands, feeling the warmth from the bottom of his heart, and his eyes sparkled with a determined light.

Four brave warriors gathered together on the ancient altar, their hands tightly interlocked, like four resilient vines entwining with each other, carrying a common faith and hope. At the end of the sky on the mountaintop, the sunlight shone through the layers of clouds, casting a golden glow. The distant radiance seemed to summon them and guide them on their next journey.

The journey ahead is full of unknowns, but I believe we will be fearless and fearless, "Anna murmured to herself. The darkness in her heart had quietly dissipated, and she silently swore in her heart not to let the pain of the past hinder her progress.

Every encounter is for the purpose of achieving a better version of oneself, "Yao Ji said softly, looking back at the ancient altar as if reminiscing about the fear and vulnerability she had just overcome.

Yes, our strength comes from each other. "Mo Yu's smile became brighter in the sunlight, as if it were golden petals scattered on the earth. Her heart was filled with gratitude, no matter how difficult the past may have been, the companions in front of her were an existence she could not abandon.

Then let this journey begin, to fight against fate! "Zeyu took firm steps and walked towards the direction where the light shone. A blazing flame ignited in his heart, dispelling all confusion and fear.

As they continued to move forward, the scenery in front of them gradually changed, extending from the mountaintop to a wider horizon. The undulating hills surged like waves, and the road beneath the four of them seemed to be woven with countless starlight, sparkling with a glimmer of hope.

The road ahead is vast, what trials will we face next? "Yao Ji asked randomly, but her words were filled with both anticipation and a hint of unease. She understood that brilliance often accompanies unknown darkness, and this path cannot be smooth.

No matter what, we will work together. If there is a trial, we will also work together to turn danger into safety. "The voice of Mo Yu is like a gentle breeze brushing against the face, inspiring all hearts.

During their conversation, a dazzling light burst from the sky, followed by a thunderous low contemplation singing that shook their hearts. The sound was huge and powerful, as if a call from heaven and earth, stirring up waves that were difficult to calm down.

This is... a test from heaven, "Zeyu looked up with a serious expression. Every inch of land that the four of them stepped on seemed to tremble, and the sound came slowly, like surging waves.

The light gradually transformed into a towering giant with a blurred face, and its radiance enveloped the entire altar. He stood in front of the four of them, looking down at them with a majestic aura.

Sir, are those who dare to break into this place willing to accept the test of fate? "The giant asked in a low and deep voice, like thunder, shaking the hearts of the four people slightly.

We are willing to take the test! "The four of them spoke in unison, their firm voices ringing like bells, piercing through the air and echoing around.

To overcome this hurdle, you need to comprehend your true self and confront your inner beliefs and fears. "The giant nodded, seemingly acknowledging their determination. Immediately, he raised his hand and four flickering beams of light rose, piercing straight into the sky.

Go ahead, the challenge is coming. You can join hands and walk alone, it all depends on your choice. "His voice was like a cloud in the sky, distant and mysterious.

Under the guidance of the giant, the four of them were each enveloped by a beam of light. Then, they felt their bodies being dragged by an invisible force, instantly floating up and leading them straight into the illusion.

Anna first fell into the illusion and found herself transported back to the gloomy old times. The gloomy sky is as oppressive as lead, as if every ray of sunshine is mercilessly torn apart. Beside her was a sprawling wasteland, with broken memories rushing towards her like wind and sand, making her feel heartbroken.

A complex picture flashed through her heart, reminding her of her past loss, loneliness, and helplessness. The painful self blame seemed to surge in like a tide: "Why did you give up your friends? Why did you let them take risks while you avoided responsibility

Enough! "Anna covered her ears, trying to get rid of those memories. Her heart was filled with a surge of anger and unwillingness, and the pain seemed to immediately imprison her in the despair of the past.

I can't change the past, but I can choose to make myself stronger! "She suddenly shouted, gathering strength in her heart, finally not letting the self blame drag her into the abyss.

At the same time, the illusion that Yao Ji entered was the battlefield where she first encountered glory. It was a feast of the past, with the sun shining like blood and flames rising. She has experienced countless victories and glories in it, and all the glory and glory are before her eyes.

But just as she was lost in all of this, suddenly a dark shadow appeared, like an unbroken shadow, surging like a tide, and she was forced to the edge of the cliff: "Do you think you can really escape

Every choice I make has its reasons! "Yao Ji clenched the hilt tightly and looked up at the flickering black shadow. Her gaze had never been so firm, and her inner belief was reignited, showing fearlessness!

When Mo Yu falls into a dreamland, it is a garden in silence. It was a dreamlike scenery, with transparent lake water reflecting her softest desires, and every petal containing her countless ideals and pursuits.

However, this tranquility turned into a storm in an instant, with petals withering like rain, echoing in her ear with hoarse whispers: "Are you really worth it all? Every smile you give masks the despair in your heart

I deserve it! "Mo Yu looked up, every trace of fear and unease in her heart turning into flames of will at this moment. She found strength in the whispers, determined to face her own anxiety and loneliness, and move forward firmly towards hope.

Finally, as Zeyu entered the illusion, he realized a peaceful and solemn atmosphere, where all the battles and passions had dried up at this moment. He was trapped behind a huge door with countless runes engraved on it, but he could never open it.

Why don't you dare to face your true self? "The mysterious voice echoed like a ghost, appearing exceptionally clear and piercing." You are evading your responsibility

I am not avoiding, but searching! "Zeyu clenched his fists, igniting a sense of revival in his heart. Memories flooded in like a flood, and his soul awakened at this moment, determined to turn his fate around.

In this challenging situation, the inner conflicts and struggles of the four gradually heal through their respective illusions, and their respective beliefs quietly merge in their hearts.

Soon after, the illusion gradually collapsed, and the four of them gathered again on the altar, their faces full of determination and composure, and their eyes shining brightly like stars. We have all experienced our own spiritual trials, "Yao Ji spoke first, her voice filled with confidence, breaking away from her previous hesitation.

Yes, we have achieved true victory and resolved our inner fears, "Mo Yu said joyfully, his eyes sparkling with light. Everyone has become a better version of themselves

Our souls converge here, no longer the same helpless state as before, "Anna looked at her companion, her gratitude overflowing in her words. She realized that it was this reunion and faith that made her brave enough to face the challenge.

Zeyu slowly stood up and said calmly, "The future is yet to be written by us. Although fate is unpredictable, the faith we hold in our hearts will become our strongest pillar

As their determination became as strong as steel, the surrounding space gradually brightened up, and the altar transformed into a sea of starlight, swaying like the trajectory of shooting stars, as if playing a prelude to their steadfastness.

The control ahead is in our hands, all despair will turn into hope! "Anna shouted loudly, as if a flame had ignited in her heart, burning all the past wounds and anxieties.

The sun shone brightly, and the four of them walked out of the altar, breathing fresh air. The weight in their hearts no longer existed. Four people walked side by side in the magnificent nature, although their eyes were still full of unknowns, their souls had already been washed away.

No matter how difficult the future may be, we must bravely pursue it, "Yao Ji smiled and showed her confident determination, telling everyone around her.

Tomorrow will be even better! "Mo Yu's voice was melodious and loud, as if declaring their faith and expectations for the future.

Let's walk hand in hand and write our own legend together! "Zeyu's gaze was as brilliant as the sunrise, majestic and fearless.

The four of them gazed into each other's eyes again, tightly holding each other's hands, as if silently conveying an indescribable trust and friendship, their hearts already dispelling hesitation.

With a shout, the four rushed towards the unknown front, welcoming the upcoming challenges and adventures. At this moment, they fearlessly carry a common dream and hope, marching towards the future.

As the giant said, this trial is not only a test of the soul, but also an opportunity to meet fate again. Only by crossing over can this journey be more brilliant, persistently and firmly heading towards the glorious shore!
