"Don't worry, you're safe now..." The voice in his ear trembled slightly, like a lone boat adrift on a stormy sea, trying to pull Ning Yu back to reality. "Now, tell me... what did you see?"
Ning Yu struggled to open his eyes, but his eyelids felt as heavy as lead. He tried to recall everything that had happened before he lost consciousness: the shield, the crystal, and the energy that swept through his body…
"I..." He used all his strength to squeeze out a word from his parched throat, only to find that his voice was hoarse beyond recognition.
"Take your time, don't rush." The voice in his ear seemed to have a magical power, gradually calming Ning Yu's anxious emotions.
"I saw it..." Ning Yu's consciousness gradually returned. He remembered that after breaking through the shield, he finally touched the crystal that emitted a strange light. The moment his fingertips touched the crystal, a powerful force surged into his body like a flood bursting its banks, almost tearing him apart.
The power was violent and scorching, rampaging through his body as if trying to burn him to ashes. His blood vessels felt like they were about to burst, and the intense pain made him groan involuntarily. His body began to smoke, and his clothes caught fire.
"How...how are you feeling?" The voice in my ear became even more panicked, carrying a hint of barely perceptible fear.
Ning Yu wanted to answer, but found himself speechless. He felt his consciousness slowly fading, and everything before him began to distort and become unreal…
"Hold on, Ning Yu! You can't sleep!" The voice in my ear was urgent and anxious, as if grasping at the last straw in despair. "Think of Mu Xue, think of your goal, think..."
"Think of Mu Xue, think of your goal, think..." The voice grew farther and farther away, more and more indistinct, and finally disappeared into chaos.
Ning Yu's consciousness drifted in the darkness. He felt his body was light and airy, like a feather, ready to be blown away by the wind at any moment. He tried to grasp something, but found that he couldn't hold onto anything.
No, I can't give up like this!
He struggled to focus his consciousness, trying to control the power raging within him. He attempted to guide this mysterious force with his special abilities, but it was far too powerful. His abilities were like an ant trying to shake a tree, completely suppressed before it.
Ning Yu felt his life force draining away, his consciousness fading. He seemed to see himself die: his body cold and stiff, lying amidst rubble, his eyes blankly staring at the gray sky…
No, I can't die!
He still had many things to accomplish; he needed to protect Mu Xue, build his own power, and so on...
However, this power was simply too terrifying for him to resist.
Just when Ning Yu was about to despair, a sudden flash of inspiration struck him. He remembered the hardships he had endured, the life-or-death trials he had faced, and the responsibilities and mission he bore…
Unwilling to accept defeat and a strong will to survive burned fiercely in Ning Yu's heart.
"I...I can't die..." He used his last bit of strength to squeeze out a few words through clenched teeth.
Just then, a warm hand grasped his tightly.
In a daze, Ning Yu felt a warm and familiar hand tightly grasp him, and a warm current slowly flowed down his arm to all parts of his body. This warm current contained a trace of determination and encouragement, allowing him to grasp a glimmer of hope in the endless darkness.
"Think of Mu Xue, think of your goals, think of what you promised me..." That voice rang in his ears again, like a lighthouse in the darkness, guiding him in the right direction.
Yes, Mu Xue is still waiting for him. His goal hasn't been achieved yet, and he still has a lot to do! He can't just give up like this!
Ning Yu suddenly opened his eyes, his black pupils burning with an unprecedentedly resolute light. He would live; he would defeat this force!
He forcefully mobilized every bit of his supernatural power, gathering it into a mighty force to engage in a breathtaking battle against the rampaging mysterious power. His body felt as if it were being torn apart; the intense pain almost made him faint, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered, refusing to give up even the slightest hope.
Every second felt like hellish torture, his consciousness teetering on the brink of collapse. He could feel his blood vessels swelling, his skin burning as if scorched by fire, but he continued to fight desperately, knowing that giving up meant utter defeat.
"Ah!" Ning Yu roared, unleashing all the power within him. He was like a burning meteor, bursting forth with dazzling light, illuminating the dark space.
"Ning Yu, hold on!" A frantic voice came from beside him, accompanied by gentle energy fluctuations.
He recognized Mu Xue's voice! She's here!
Ning Yu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a pale smile. He felt the backlash from that mysterious power seem to have lessened somewhat, and his consciousness gradually regained some clarity.
"I...I can't..." Ning Yu began with difficulty, trying to say something, but his voice grew weaker and weaker until he finally lost his breath, leaving only the hand that was tightly holding his, still as warm as ever...
"Ning Yu! What's wrong with you!?" Mu Xue's voice was full of worry and anxiety, but she received no response.
Ning Yu's body was like a ship out of control in a storm, tossed up and down at will by that mysterious force. His consciousness flickered, each time as if he were about to sink completely into an endless abyss, only to be pulled back by Mu Xue's voice and that warm power.
