Journey to the Mysterious Sea

Caitlin's expression suddenly changed without warning. At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and her expression seemed to be covered by frost that had not melted for a thousand years. The cold breath surged out like a surging tide, spreading rapidly around. The chill was so strong that the people around her could not help but feel a deep fear in their bones.

Her face seemed to have been ruthlessly drained of all its color by a mysterious and strange force in that extremely brief moment. Her originally rosy face now turned as pale as paper, without a single sign of life, as if the vitality of life had been completely taken away in that instant, leaving only an empty shell.

The pair of eyes that were once as clear and bright as the moving water waves were now wide open in fear. They were filled with unconcealable fear and anxiety, as if she had witnessed the most horrifying scene in the world. The fear was like an invisible hand, tightly strangling her soul, making it almost impossible for her to breathe, and it seemed that it could completely swallow her at any time, plunging her into endless darkness.

Her body was shaking violently and uncontrollably, the amplitude of the shaking was like a dead leaf swaying in the cold wind of late autumn. Every tremor seemed so fragile that people couldn't help but feel pity for her. It seemed that when the ruthless cold wind blew, she would be blown down like a fallen leaf, and then shattered into pieces, turned into dust, and disappeared in this vast world.

Her voice was trembling uncontrollably, as if every word was squeezed out with difficulty from between her teeth. There was endless fear in her words, and she said with difficulty: "I don't think so." The voice floated in the air, carrying a deep sense of uneasiness and uncertainty.

The eyes of the Emperor of Chu were as cold as ice, without any emotional fluctuations. His eyes were like a bottomless cold pond, cold and deep. Everything in the world was like passing clouds in his eyes, and could not arouse his interest at all. He waved his fists indifferently with an expressionless face. The seemingly simple action actually contained a powerful force beyond imagination. It seemed that everything in the world was like a fragile ant in front of him, and he could easily destroy it and turn it into nothingness without leaving a trace.

As he moved, a mighty force suddenly erupted. This force was like a surging wave, sweeping over with overwhelming force. The power was like a thousand horses galloping, unstoppable, and everything was crushed by its powerful force wherever it went. It was so daunting that people dared not even have the slightest intention of resisting.

Caitlin only felt an irresistible force hitting her body like a strong wind. Under the impact of this force, the soul in her body was forced out by this force, separated from her body, and slowly floated in the air.

Caitlin's eyes widened, filled with incomparable surprise and fear. It was as if she had seen the end of the world, full of despair and helplessness. She watched helplessly as the body that once belonged to her fell straight down lifelessly, and then fell heavily to the ground. There was a dull sound, which was particularly harsh in this silent space. The sound was like a heavy hammer, hitting her heart hard, causing her heart to instantly fall into endless pain and despair.

At the same time, a golden phoenix slowly emerged from Caitlin's body. The phoenix was majestic and magnificent, like a towering mountain, emitting a dazzling light. This light illuminated everything around it as bright as day, so bright and gorgeous that it was almost impossible to look directly at it.

However, its eyes were full of ferocity and cruelty. Its cold gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the human soul, making people shudder. It seemed that it would devour people mercilessly in the next second, and make people fall into an abyss of no return, from which they could never escape.

The golden phoenix opened its bloody mouth and pounced on Caitlin at lightning speed. Its speed was as fast as lightning across the night sky, and it was gone in an instant, leaving no time for people to react. They could only watch it all happen, but they were powerless to do anything.

Then, the two merged together in an incredible way. The scene was extremely strange and horrifying. It was like being in a terrible nightmare, unable to extricate oneself, and shrouded in fear.

The Emperor of Chu remained expressionless, watching this strange scene indifferently. His tone was as calm as the frozen lake in winter, without a single ripple. He asked coldly, "What is this thing?" His voice kept echoing in this empty space, with an irresistible majesty. The voice seemed to be the voice of judgment from heaven, solemn and solemn, making people's souls tremble, and dared not disobey in the slightest.

Caitlin's body was suspended in mid-air, and time seemed to have completely frozen at this moment. The whole world seemed to have fallen into a dead silence, without a single sound or movement. Only the golden light was shining, illuminating the dark space, making everything seem so unreal, like an illusory dream.

After a moment, her body returned to her own body. At this moment, she looked extremely embarrassed, and her clothes were in a mess. The clothes that were originally neat and clean were now covered with wrinkles and stains. Those wrinkles were like traces of time, deeply engraved on the clothes, recording the suffering and torture she had experienced. The stains seemed to have been eroded by the ruthless years, mottled and old, giving people an inexplicable sense of vicissitudes.

Her hair also spread out, like wild grass, falling on her shoulders without any order. It looked messy and had lost its original luster and smoothness. She stood up with difficulty, her eyes full of doubt and confusion. She murmured, "I don't know what this thing is, Lord Chudi." There was a hint of helplessness and fear in her voice, as if she was surrendering to fate. The voice seemed particularly small and helpless in this silent space, like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time and disappear in this endless darkness.

The Chu Emperor frowned tightly, and the wrinkles were like deep ravines, showing his inner dissatisfaction and doubt. His fingers danced flexibly in the air, like a superb dancer, and every movement was full of mysterious charm. The movement was smooth and natural, which made people marvel.

As he moved, he made a mysterious spell. Suddenly, a golden light fell like a meteor, landing accurately on Caitlin's head. The golden light was like a bright star, shining with a mysterious and charming light. It made her face particularly bright, as if a precious gem was inlaid on her face, emitting a dazzling light.

Caitlin subconsciously reached out and touched the golden light on her head. The light was warm and soft. However, her heart was filled with fear, and the fear followed her like a shadow, making her unable to get rid of it. Then, her eyes slowly turned red, and the red was like a burning flame, full of anger and unwillingness. She became emotional and shouted loudly: "You treat me as a slave. I am now marked as a slave." Her voice kept echoing in the empty space, full of despair and grief. The voice seemed to be a cry from the bottom of her heart, an accusation against the injustice of fate. Like a sad movement, it sounded in this silent space, moving people and making them feel pity.
