However, after just a short while, Xiao Yi forced himself to calm down. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner panic, his eyes gradually becoming firm. He turned his head and looked at Lin Yue and others who were also in panic, and shouted: "Don't panic! We can't lose our composure!"
When Lin Yue heard Xiao Yi's words, she was like being suddenly awakened. She gritted her teeth and tried to calm herself down. The others also came to their senses and began to adjust their emotions.
Then, they began to carefully search the surroundings for the source of the drowsiness. Xiao Yi vigilantly observed every suspicious spot, not missing a single detail. Lin Yue closed her eyes, attempting to sense clues through the plants. Their steps were extremely light, fearful of alerting any unknown danger. Everyone's nerves were on edge as they struggled to find answers in this eerie forest. Although their hearts were still filled with fear, their eyes were filled with a new sense of determination and courage.
Xiao Yi and his companions searched carefully in the gloomy woods, taking every step with extreme caution. As time passed, beads of sweat gradually seeped out of their foreheads, and their eyes revealed persistence and anxiety.
Xiao Yi's sharp eyes swept through every corner, not missing any unusual trace. Lin Yue occasionally communicated with the surrounding plants, trying to get some clues from them. The others also participated in the search with full concentration, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
In this way, they searched tirelessly for a long, long time, as if a century had passed. Just when everyone felt a little desperate, suddenly, Xiao Yi's sight was attracted by a strange red.
He slowly approached and found that it was a red stone, lying quietly in a patch of grass, emitting a strange and charming smell. This smell was vague and seemed to have a mysterious magic that made people want to get closer.
Xiao Yi's heartbeat instantly accelerated. He squatted down cautiously and carefully observed the stone. The stone was a bright red, which was particularly eye-catching in the dim light. There seemed to be some strange patterns on its surface, like ancient runes.
Lin Yue and the others gathered around, their faces filled with surprise and confusion as they gazed at the red stone emitting an alluring scent. They all realized that this stone was likely the source of their drowsiness, but they knew nothing about its origins or purpose. They stared at each other, unsure what to do, staring silently at the mysterious red stone, pondering their next move.
Xiao Yi and others gathered around the red stone, and the charming smell penetrated into their nostrils, as if it had an irresistible magic.
Xiao Yi's expression was the first to change. His brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes revealed a struggle. He wanted to look away, away from the stone, but his body seemed to be unable to obey him and involuntarily moved closer. His facial muscles twitched slightly, and his teeth bit his lower lip tightly, trying hard to restrain himself.
Lin Yue's expression was also filled with agony. Her eyes gradually grew blurry, her once resolute gaze beginning to lose focus. Her hand unconsciously reached for the red stone, as if drawn by an invisible force. Her breathing became rapid and erratic, and beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.
Others were not spared either. Some of them held their heads in their hands, their faces full of pain and confusion; some of them swayed as if they would fall at any time; some of them opened their mouths wide, but could not make any sound, and could only let out low whimpers from their throats.
Their features were contorted with agony, their eyes bloodshot, their faces red and pale. Each struggled desperately against the scent's influence, but its power was too strong, their struggles feeble and futile. Some even began to moan, their agonized sounds echoing through the silent woods, stirring both pity and terror. They were trapped in an inescapable nightmare, powerless against the scent of red stone, only allowing the pain to gnaw at their bodies and minds.
Xiao Yi clenched his teeth tightly, his facial muscles trembling slightly due to extreme restraint. He hardened his heart and bit the tip of his tongue hard. A sharp pain instantly hit him, making his mind clear for a moment. His eyes flashed with determination, and he tried hard to resist the charming scent emitted by the red stone.
Lin Yue followed Xiao Yi's lead. She bit her teeth, and a sharp pain suddenly emanated from the tip of her tongue. Her eyes instantly regained some of their spirit. She took a deep breath, trying to remain calm. She clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her palms.
The others also bit their tongues one after another, their expressions showing extreme pain, but they forced themselves not to fall into confusion again. They looked at each other, and saw determination and courage in each other's eyes.
Then, they cautiously approached the red stone. Xiao Yi's steps were a little unsteady, but he continued to move forward firmly, each step full of determination. Lin Yue followed closely behind him, and a ball of green light had condensed in her hand. It was her wood-type ability.
They approached the red stone, step by step, the air thick with tension. When they were close enough, Xiao Yi swung his fist, bringing a powerful gust of wind and smashing it hard at the red stone. Lin Yue also activated his supernatural power, and green light shot towards the stone like an arrow. The others also used their own skills. For a moment, all kinds of light and power attacked the red stone that exuded an enchanting scent, as if to completely destroy it. Their faces were filled with expressions of fearless determination, determined to break this strange situation and restore everyone to normal.
