The Shadow Gate stands above the chaos of ice and snow. Although it looks quite spectacular, its existence is like an invisible phantom, which makes Mingluo and others quite embarrassed.
"Ye Zhihan, how do I open this door?" Ming Luo tried many ways but none of them worked, so he was naturally a little discouraged.
Ye Zhihan was unsure, so he tried to summon the shadow sword and pass it through the shadow door.
A magical thing happened. The shadow sword did not penetrate the shadow gate, but merged with the shadow gate and pulled Ye Zhihan's arm in little by little.
So, I have to use my shadow ability to get in? Mingluo saw Ye Zhihan being sucked into the shadow door, and quickly pulled Ye Zhihan's arm to follow him in.
Brother Xiong was quick to grab Ming Luo with one hand and Bai Qianqian with the other, and these two people who had nothing to do with the shadow ability also followed in.
The four of them were like a string of candied haws, one after another, entering the Shadow Gate from the chaos and coming out from another space.
Bai Qianqian was surprised that Brother Xiong took the initiative to hold her hand. However, after entering another space, Brother Xiong naturally let go of her hand. This made Bai Qianqian feel surprised at first, and then disappointed. Her face was full of shyness and distraction, which was inconsistent with her character as a female warrior.
But Bai Qianqian's girlish shyness was not noticed by Brother Xiong, but Ming Luo saw the whole scene.
Ming Luo complained silently in his heart, Brother Xiong, oh Brother Xiong, it’s not that Bai Qianqian is not cute enough, but she only shows her most shy and beautiful side to her lover. It’s a pity that Brother Xiong didn’t notice any of her behavior.
…
There is a different world inside the Shadow Gate.
Magnificent, spectacular, epic treasure, imposing, these are a few words that suddenly popped up in Ming Luo's mind, but these words are not enough to describe one ten-thousandth of the scene before him.
The stadium-sized venue has no unnecessary embellishments. In the middle stands a jade stele emitting pure white light. The light is projected onto a barrier a hundred meters away. The barrier is surrounded on all sides. There are no doors or windows, but people do not feel the boredom of being locked in a secret room. Instead, the exquisite sculptures carved on the barrier make people fascinated.
These sculptures are lifelike, endless, and extremely dynamic. Ming Luo took a quick glance at them and it was as if he had glimpsed the mysteries of history, seen the past thousands of years ago, and felt a peak showdown across time.
It is obvious that the sculpture depicts an epic duel. Two heroic men appear before our eyes in black and white. They fight from dawn to night, from summer insects to winter snow, from the earth to the blue sky. The heaven and earth behind them are just an embellished background, and they are the masters of the world.
"Is this... a god?" Ming Luo asked Ye Zhihan in a low voice with his eyes narrowed. He had suddenly moved from a dark place to a bright place, and his eyes were not able to adapt for a while.
Ye Zhihan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his frosty blue eyes reflected the brilliance of the jade tablet, as if there were bright stars in his eyes. He replied softly, "This is true."
…
Ye Zhihan was very familiar with these scenes. The shadow man from the pure white land had accompanied him throughout his life. Every few years or even more than ten years, he would randomly appear in Ye Zhihan's shadow space to torture him. Every time that happened, he would be haunted by nightmares every night.
In the dream, Ye Zhihan turned into another person, a demon who was omnipotent in heaven and earth. He fought with a man in white who was tall and majestic and ethereal. The sky was dark and the mountains and rivers were changing.
And he was always despised by everyone and failed miserably, and could only be thrown into the endless chaos with no light of day and became increasingly decadent.
Every time that happened, he would be awakened by nightmares.
He guessed that in his dream he must have turned into the shadow man's previous appearance, but no matter how he asked, the shadow man would only laugh at him as a little devil and then disappear without a trace in the pure white land.
The next time they met, it was a similar scene, but Ye Zhihan, having grown up, was no longer stupid enough to ask about the shadow man's background and the story behind him.
Ye Zhihan once doubted his identity. He never thought that he was the only shadow demon in the world. The shadow man had a special obsession with him, and he and the shadow man were too similar, and their abilities were exactly the same, but his shadow would be absorbed by the shadow man, so he always felt that he was a demon transformed from the shadow man's shadow, not the real shadow demon.
He had told Mingluo this from the very beginning, and the sentence that sounded like a joke, "Maybe someone's shadow has become a spirit," was the real reason.
…
"Really?" Ming Luo opened his mouth into a circle, his face full of surprise. If such a grand and magnificent duel really happened in the Suma Continent, it would cause a huge commotion.
When the masters fight, the little devil suffers. If Ming falls on the scene, he will probably be killed by the unknown aoe damage of the two masters.
"It's true, but it happened ten thousand years ago." Ye Zhihan looked indifferent, as if he didn't want to continue.
Brother Xiong and Bai Qianqian were naturally captivated by the magnificent spectacle before them. Brother Xiong scurried around the arena like a child, imitating the sculptures in his punches and kicks. He couldn't help but marvel at the greatness of the figures in the sculptures: "These two must be at least at the Divine Surge Realm, right? Their moves are truly marvelous! However, there's only been one recorded instance of two gods fighting each other..."
Bai Qianqian was worried that Brother Xiong would get into trouble if he ran around, so she pretended to observe the carving, following Brother Xiong at a distance while pretending to explore the environment. When she heard Brother Xiong say this, she immediately realized and said, "You mean the Shadow Demon?"
Brother Xiong continued, "That should be the case. Unfortunately, there are too few records, and the history of that time has long been lost."
The more Ming Luo listened, the more suspicious she became. She always felt that these things were related to Ye Zhihan, but Ye Zhihan had an expression that said "don't bother me", which made her at a loss as to what to do.
Just as they were exploring the environment inside the Shadow Gate, Ming Luo followed Ye Zhihan to the jade stele. Her eyes were dazzled by the white light emitted by the jade stele, so she squinted her eyes and looked at the jade stele.
Ye Zhihan seemed unaffected by the brilliance of the jade stele. He stood still and looked up at the upper part of the jade stele.
Thanks to Ye Zhihan's actions, Mingluo could vaguely see small, unclear words in the dazzling white light. She tried her best to look for a while, but she felt her eyes sore and her head dizzy. In a blink of an eye, all she could see was the dazzling white light, and she could not even see the sculptures on the surrounding walls.
Ming Luo quickly gave up the idea of reading the inscription and asked Ye Zhihan in a low voice: "What does it say?"
Ye Zhihan replied briefly: "The history of this battle."
Just when Mingluo wanted to ask more about the content of the inscription, she was suddenly shocked. There were definitely more than four of them here!
Fat Peach also sensed the danger coming, and hurriedly pulled Brother Bear's chest hair to remind him to be more careful.
