Two CEOs fell in love with me during my menstruation
Chapter 199: Between the Mottled Shadows of Trees
After leaving the altar, the atmosphere in the Black Forest became more depressing. Occasionally, a few low growls of unknown creatures could be heard among the mottled shadows of the trees, as if warning the intruders of their recklessness. Xiao Xiao, Qin Wentian, and Ye Qilin were silent all the way. Each of them had a thousand thoughts in their minds, but no one broke the heavy silence.
Xiaoxiao walked in front, holding the artifact tightly in her hand, her fingertips slightly white. She knew clearly that the road ahead would be more dangerous than before. At this moment, she had to be strong, not only for herself, but also for Qin Wentian and Ye Qilin. The two people behind her, although they usually seemed to take everything lightly, at this moment, they were carrying unspeakable burdens on their shoulders.
Finally, Ye Qilin broke the silence, "Xiaoxiao, what should we do now? What exactly is that new path you mentioned?"
Xiao Xiao stopped, turned around, and looked at Ye Qilin firmly, "I don't know yet. But I know that we can't let the curse of fate continue. The dead soul once said that he had waited for countless centuries just to find another way. Maybe we can lift the curse of the artifact in some way."
Qin Wentian nodded, his voice was slightly comforting, "That's right, since the ghost believes that we can find a way out, then we can't let him down. The three of us will definitely find a solution."
Xiao Xiao looked at Qin Wentian gratefully and said, "Thank you for your support. I also believe that we can do it. Now that we have come to this point, there is no turning back."
The three decided to rest in the Black Forest temporarily, adjust their status, and prepare for the next unknown challenge. At this moment, they need to calmly analyze the current situation and find a breakthrough.
Night fell quietly, and the dark forest was shrouded in an eerie silence. The shadows of the trees in the distance became particularly deep under the moonlight, as if hiding countless secrets. Xiaoxiao leaned against an ancient tree trunk, closed her eyes, and pondered the words of the dead. She repeatedly recalled every detail, hoping to find clues from it.
"The power of the artifact is a double-edged sword. It can destroy darkness as well as the soul of the holder." Xiao Xiao whispered to herself, and a bold idea gradually emerged in her mind, "Perhaps, this power can be reversed?"
Qin Wentian heard her whisper, approached her, and asked in a low voice: "Have you thought of anything?"
Xiaoxiao opened her eyes with a glimmer of light in her eyes. "Perhaps, we can try to reverse the power of the artifact. If the artifact can absorb souls, then perhaps we can guide this power out and use it to destroy the source of darkness."
Ye Qilin frowned, "This sounds risky. If we don't control it well, we might get backlashed."
Xiao Xiao nodded, admitting that this plan was extremely risky. "Yes, this is indeed a gamble. But do we have any other choice?"
Qin Wentian pondered for a moment, then said with a determined look, "Since there is no way out, let's take a gamble. No matter what, I will stand by you."
Ye Qilin also loosened his clenched fists and chuckled, "This is the first time I've participated in such a crazy plan. But now that we've decided, let's do it!"
Seeing the two people's firm support, Xiao Xiao was filled with gratitude and strength. She knew that this road was full of unknown dangers, but they had no room to turn back.
The three of them packed up their equipment again and continued to move forward into the depths of the Black Forest. In the night, the shadows of the trees became darker, as if pairs of eyes were peering in the dark. Xiao Xiao tightly grasped the artifact in her hand, feeling the huge energy contained in it. She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that this bet would bring the dawn of victory.
Not long after, they found a huge stone formation deep in the Black Forest. In the center of the formation was a huge stone engraved with runes, like an ancient altar. Xiaoxiao looked at the huge stone and felt a strange feeling in her heart. She vaguely felt that this might be the key to reversing the power of the artifact.
"It's right here." Xiao Xiao whispered, with a gleam of determination in her eyes, "We must perform the ritual here to reverse the power of the artifact."
Qin Wentian and Ye Qilin looked at each other, neither of them said much, and silently began to arrange the surrounding environment. They knew that the next battle would be a life-and-death battle, and if they were not careful, they might be doomed.
The night wind gradually blew, bringing a hint of coolness. Xiaoxiao stood in front of the altar, closed her eyes, and began to silently recite the ancient spell. She felt the energy inside the artifact begin to stir, as if responding to her call.
"Are you ready?" Qin Wentian asked in a low voice, holding his weapon in his hand, his eyes full of vigilance.
Xiao Xiao nodded, raised the artifact with both hands, and began to inject the power of the spell into it. Suddenly, the air around the stone formation began to tremble violently, as if the entire space was distorted. The artifact emitted a dazzling light, as if it was going to swallow everything.
At this moment, a low roar suddenly came from the surrounding forest, and then several huge black shadows rushed towards the stone formation from all directions. Those black shadows were the embodiment of darkness. They felt the power of the artifact and wanted to stop the ceremony.
Qin Wentian and Ye Qilin quickly rushed forward, wielding their weapons and engaging in a fierce battle with those dark creatures. They knew that this was the most critical moment and they must not let these creatures disturb Xiaoxiao's ceremony.
Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth, concentrated her mind, and injected the power of the spell into the artifact. She felt the power inside the artifact gradually being reversed, as if a powerful energy was slowly being released.
The battle became more intense. Although Qin Wentian and Ye Qilin were brave and fearless, they also felt the pressure doubled in the face of the endless dark creatures. Every time they killed a dark creature, more monsters would surge forward, as if they were endless.
"Xiaoxiao, hurry up!" Ye Qilin shouted loudly. His forehead was already covered with sweat. He felt his physical strength was rapidly depleting.
Xiao Xiao did not respond. She continued the ritual with full concentration. The light of the artifact became stronger and stronger, gradually forming a huge pillar of light that shot straight into the sky. Those dark creatures felt this power and began to roar in pain, as if they were being torn apart.
"Success!" Qin Wentian shouted as he struggled to kill the dark creatures, his eyes full of excitement.
At this moment, the light of the artifact suddenly burst out, forming a huge shock wave, instantly tearing the surrounding dark creatures apart. The entire stone formation was shrouded in light, as if it had turned into a sea of light. Xiao Xiao, Qin Wentian, and Ye Qilin were wrapped in light, and felt an unprecedented power surging in their bodies.
However, at this moment, Xiao Xiao suddenly felt a sharp pain, as if her entire soul was being torn apart. Her face turned pale instantly, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably. Although the light of the artifact successfully reversed the power, it also began to backfire on her soul.
"Xiaoxiao!" Qin Wentian and Ye Qilin exclaimed at the same time. They immediately rushed to her side and tried to pull her out of the light.
Xiao Xiao gritted her teeth, endured the severe pain, and whispered: "Don't...stay away from me...this is my choice...I must complete it..."
Qin Wentian and Ye Qilin's eyes were filled with pain and unwillingness. They couldn't bear to watch Xiaoxiao endure such pain, but they also understood that stopping her now would only lead to failure.
Just when Xiaoxiao was about to lose consciousness, the light of the artifact suddenly burst out with its final power, and the entire stone formation was completely destroyed. The huge energy rushed straight into the sky, as if it had completely torn apart the source of darkness.
