Chapter 60: The Search for the Path to the Spirit Spring

The clear chirping of the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast echoed in the open area of the Holy Land Canyon. It flapped its huge and transparent wings, and the multicolored light shimmered, as if urging everyone to keep up. Kyle, Elsa, Morgan, Cavin, Alicia, and Lynn took a deep breath. With anticipation for the "Colorful Spirit Spring", they closely followed the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast and embarked on a journey full of unknowns and dangers.

Shortly after leaving the open area where the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast appeared, the scene ahead suddenly changed, and a chaotic area emerged before everyone's eyes. The multicolored mist here became even thicker, intertwining and rolling, forming strange vortices. The Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast flew into it without hesitation. Everyone exchanged a look. Although they were nervous, they also firmly followed in. As soon as they stepped into this area, a strong energy fluctuation rushed towards them. The space seemed to be wantonly distorted by an invisible giant hand, and the flow of time also became disordered. Kyle felt as if his body was stuck in a viscous liquid, and it was extremely difficult to take each step. He tightly grasped his stardust long sword, trying to stabilize his figure with the stardust power in the sword, but the distorted space made the long sword in his hand tremble slightly.

"Everyone, be careful. This is the area of energy turbulence!" Lynn shouted loudly, but his voice seemed a bit blurred in the chaotic energy. He tried hard to recall the records about energy turbulence in the family's ancient books, attempting to find a way to deal with it. Elsa immediately cast her ice magic and built an ice shield around everyone, hoping to resist the impact of the energy turbulence. As soon as the ice shield was formed, it was smashed by the surrounding violent energy with a "cracking" sound, and cracks spread rapidly. Elsa gritted her teeth and increased the output of her magic power to maintain the stability of the ice shield.

Morgan used his illusion ability to create multiple clones, trying to disrupt the direction of the energy turbulence. However, as soon as these clones appeared, they were instantly torn apart by the powerful energy. Morgan's face turned pale, and a sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart, but he still held on and moved forward with everyone. Cavin focused all his attention on operating the magical detection tool. Although the tool almost malfunctioned in this chaotic energy environment, he still tried to obtain a glimmer of useful information from it. His forehead was covered with sweat, and his eyes revealed anxiety and concentration.

Under the impact of the energy turbulence, everyone's steps became unsteady, and their bodies also began to show varying degrees of discomfort. Alicia, with her powerful strength as an interstellar guardian, opened up a relatively stable passage for everyone in the front. A soft light emanated from her body, resisting the erosion of the energy turbulence. She kept looking back to ensure that everyone closely followed behind her and encouraged everyone at the same time, "Hold on, we will definitely get through this area!"

Just as everyone was struggling to move forward in the energy turbulence, the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast suddenly let out a sharp chirp. Everyone looked up and saw the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast circle in the air and then fly in one direction. Kyle immediately realized that the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast must have found a way to cross the energy turbulence, and he shouted loudly, "Everyone, follow the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast!" Everyone quickened their pace and chased in the direction where the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast flew. Under the guidance of the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast, everyone gradually found the weak point of the energy turbulence. They carefully avoided the powerful energy impacts. After a thrilling struggle, they finally successfully crossed the area of energy turbulence.

Everyone just let out a sigh of relief and hadn't had time to rest when a section full of spirit tree crystals appeared in front of them. These spirit tree crystals were of various shapes. Some were like huge spikes piercing the sky, and some were like twisted vines intertwined with each other. Some of the crystals emitted a dangerous dark aura, as if warning everyone not to approach. The Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast slowly circled above this area, seemingly waiting for everyone to find a way to pass through.

Kyle watched these spirit tree crystals warily. He could feel the powerful and dangerous force contained in them. He brandished his stardust long sword and tried to approach a crystal that emitted a relatively weak dark aura to observe its pattern. However, when he got close, the crystal suddenly released a black energy beam and shot it towards him. Kyle quickly dodged sideways, and the beam flew past the corner of his clothes, leaving a deep pit on the ground.

"Everyone, don't approach these crystals easily. They seem to be eroded by dark power and are full of aggression," Kyle reminded loudly. Elsa cast her ice magic, trying to freeze these crystals and weaken their attacking power. However, the ice magic had little effect on these crystals eroded by dark power. As soon as the ice crystals touched the crystals, they were melted by the dark energy.

Morgan observed for a while and suddenly had an idea. "Maybe we can use the gaps between these crystals to pass through, as long as we don't trigger their attacks." Everyone thought this method was feasible, so they began to carefully look for a safe path among the spirit tree crystals. They moved forward step by step, their eyes fixed on the surrounding crystals, for fear of triggering any traps.

During the process of crossing the area of spirit tree crystals, Cavin found some strange symbols engraved on some of the crystals. He walked forward curiously, wanting to study these symbols carefully, but accidentally triggered the attack of one of the crystals. A black energy beam instantly shot towards him. Cavin couldn't dodge in time and was hit on the arm by the beam. A sharp pain shot through him, and he couldn't help but let out a scream.

"Cavin!" Everyone exclaimed and immediately surrounded him. Elsa quickly cast a healing spell to treat Cavin's wound. Kyle brandished his long sword and stood in front of Cavin, watching the surrounding crystals warily to prevent them from launching another attack. Lynn stepped forward and carefully observed those symbols, trying to find a way to break the attack of the crystals. After some research, he found that these symbols seemed to be an ancient seal. As long as these symbols were activated in a specific order, the dark power of the crystals could be temporarily suppressed.

Everyone carefully activated those symbols according to Lynn's instructions. As the symbols were activated, the crystals that originally emitted a dangerous aura gradually calmed down, and the dark power was temporarily suppressed. Everyone seized this opportunity, quickened their pace, and quickly passed through this dangerous area full of spirit tree crystals.

Under the guidance of the Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast, everyone went through many hardships and obstacles. They encountered suddenly appearing huge cracks and needed to use all their skills to cross them; they also encountered attacks from mysterious creatures hidden in the mist and only repelled them after a fierce battle. But they never gave up. There was only one belief in their hearts: to find the "Colorful Spirit Spring" and obtain the power to purify the "Dark Erosion".

After a long and arduous journey, a hidden valley finally appeared ahead. Spirit trees surrounded the valley, and the branches and leaves of the spirit trees swayed gently in the breeze, as if welcoming everyone's arrival. The Enchanted Spirit Winged Beast chirped cheerfully and flew towards the valley. Everyone looked at the valley in front of them, filled with hope and anticipation. They knew that the "Colorful Spirit Spring" might be in this valley...
