Chapter 150 Abyss
Chapter 150 Abyss
As they ventured deeper, the surrounding environment began to turn eerie. The shapes of the trees began to twist, as if some force had distorted their growth direction, forming strange arches and tunnels.
Yun Muhan gripped his sword tightly with vigilance, while Murong Yuanmo followed closely behind, his eyes gleaming with curiosity and excitement.
"Be careful, things here aren't as simple as they seem," Yun Muhan warned in a low voice.
Murong Yuanmo nodded. He could feel the magical energy flowing in the air, something he had never experienced before. They passed through twisted groves of trees and finally arrived at a clearing.
In the center of the open space stood an ancient altar, covered with strange runes, emitting a faint glow.
"This is the core of the secret realm," Yun Muhan said, his voice carrying a hint of solemnity.
Murong Yuanmo stepped forward and reached out to touch the runes on the altar. Suddenly, a powerful force surged from the altar and enveloped him.
Upon seeing this, Yun Muhan immediately drew his sword to prepare for the possible danger, but he soon discovered that this power was not hostile, but was guiding Murong Yuanmo to complete some kind of ritual.
Murong Yuanmo closed his eyes. He could feel the power within him awakening, an unprecedented power flowing through his body.
……
Murong Yuan opened his eyes groggily, only to find himself in a strange space. "Big brother? Where are you? Where is this?"
A voice came, but it was not the familiar Yun Muhan. Instead, it was very unfamiliar, ancient, and full of majesty.
What brings you here?
His voice could be heard but not his figure, and coupled with the eeriness of this strange space, it was extremely terrifying. But who was he? Murong Yuanmo, who had been tortured for nearly two years without uttering a sound and wreaked havoc in the divine realm, could not possibly be frightened by such a scene.
"You charlatan, get out here now."
The Secret Realm of the Forest: "You are the first person to dare to provoke me. If it weren't for the strange aura emanating from you, I would have surely destroyed you. Now, kneel down before me, and I will spare you."
"okay!"
The Secret Realm of the Forest: "Why?"
Murong Yuanmo: "My sister once said that in the face of an absolute powerhouse, all resistance is laughable. Before becoming strong, life is the most important thing. As for dignity... ants have no dignity."
Forest's Secret Realm: "..."
Murong Yuanmo stood in the center of the ancient altar, surrounded by runes etched with the marks of time, which flickered in the dim light. His body was enveloped in a faint, mysterious light, as if it had some unspeakable connection to the depths of his soul.
With the rhythm of his breathing, the light began to ripple slowly, spreading out like waves, creating a subtle resonance with the runes on the altar.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment. Murong Yuanmo's every breath was synchronized with the flashes of light, and his body seemed to be absorbing the ancient power from the runes.
Murong Yuanmo's hair swayed slightly under the light, each strand seemingly telling a story of awakening power. His clothes fluttered gently, swaying with the rhythm of the light, as if blown by an invisible wind.
As his power accumulated, Murong Yuanmo's skin began to radiate a brighter light, and his muscles appeared even more solid and powerful under the illumination.
His eyes were tightly closed, his long eyelashes trembling slightly on his eyelids, revealing his inner excitement and anticipation. His hands hung naturally at his sides, his fingers slightly bent, as if unconsciously preparing to receive the impending power.
Finally, as his power reached its peak, Murong Yuanmo's eyes snapped open, the light within them shining like two brilliant stars, radiating newfound power. His gaze was filled with surprise and confidence, as if the entire world was under his control.
"I did it, big brother!" Murong Yuanmo exclaimed excitedly, his voice brimming with an unprecedented sense of power. His voice echoed above the altar, every word filled with strength and determination.
Murong Yuanmo's body trembled slightly because the newly acquired power was too great, and his body needed time to adapt.
His breathing became deep and powerful, each breath seeming to communicate with the entire world. A slight upturn of his lips revealed a confident smile, a smile that contained boundless anticipation for the future and complete control over his power.
Murong Yuanmo slowly raised his arm, palm facing the sky, as if demonstrating his power to the whole world.
The light surrounding his body began to swirl, forming a small whirlwind that made his figure appear even taller and more mysterious. It was hard to believe that the Murong Yuanmo before them was merely a twelve or thirteen-year-old child.
Yun Muhan breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Murong Yuanmo had successfully inherited the power of the secret realm, and his strength would increase greatly as a result.
Yun Muhan patted Murong Yuanmo on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Very good, little Yuan, now we have stronger power and can embark on the journey together. In the future, your name will surely resound throughout the God Realm."
"Big brother, what is the God Realm?"
"Um...you don't need to worry about that. Let's go back and find Yun Youdu and Qing Wuying first!"
Murong Yuanmo nodded. Although he was filled with curiosity about the God Realm, he trusted Yun Muhan's judgment more. He knew that as long as he followed his older brother, he could continuously grow stronger and explore more unknowns.
"Alright, let's set off then!" A determined light shone in Murong Yuanmo's eyes. His power had awakened, and he longed to put it into practice and verify it.
Yun Muhan smiled slightly. He could feel the surging power within Murong Yuan's demonic body, a power that would make their future journey much easier.
He turned and led the way out of the secret realm, with Murong Yuanmo close behind. The two passed through the dense fog of the secret realm and arrived at the exit. Sunlight filtered through the treetops, shining on them and bringing a touch of warmth.
"Big brother, when we go back this time, should we tell them that my power has awakened?" Murong Yuanmo asked excitedly.
Yun Muhan thought for a moment, then said, "Let's not tell them for now. We'll give them a surprise when we find the right time."
Murong Yuanmo nodded knowingly, understanding that Yun Muhan had his reasons for doing so. They needed to maintain some secrecy, just in case.
