Southland*
After Mo Shisheng fainted, Ming Beiya carried her back to the palace, and she did not stay outside for long.
...
Welcome back.
Mo Shisheng awoke once again in this void, amidst the familiar darkness, the familiar sounds, and the familiar endless expanse.
"Why did I come back to this godforsaken place again?" Mo Shisheng narrowed her eyes slightly, her tone full of disgust.
"Fate is predetermined."
"What a load of nonsense about fate." Mo Shisheng remained unmoved by this reply, which was clearly just an excuse.
"It's just earlier than I expected. It seems your actions speak louder than your words." A voice, seemingly from nowhere, patiently answered Mo Shisheng's questions one by one.
Mo Shisheng automatically filtered out the useless junk information, grasped the keywords, and fell into deep thought, "It was anticipated, and brought forward."
"What is the reason for this?" A few words escaped from Mo Shisheng's lips, her expression filled with a puzzled look and a desire for an answer.
"This... the reason is currently unknown, cough cough." An awkward voice drifted into Mo Shisheng's ears.
Mo Shisheng twitched her lips. "You might as well shut up. Asking you is pointless." It was clear that the person with this voice wasn't omnipotent.
"It might be related to the hidden energy within you. That power started to become disordered from the moment you made that choice. Ultimately, it's because you wanted to regain your memories too much." To ease the awkward atmosphere and save face for his unreliability, he quickly made this statement.
"Where is the fragment this time?"
Mo Shisheng was surprised when the other person spoke; even facing danger, they were still determined to regain their memories. She knew she hadn't chosen the wrong person.
"Then, to your right, the fragment is on the mountaintop."
Following the prompt, Mo Shisheng looked to the right and suddenly saw a towering, steep mountain peak in the distance. The mountain was clearly layered, with lush greenery at its base, barren land on its waist, and snow-capped peaks. A faint, flickering light could be seen on the summit.
"On the mountaintop?"
"This is no ordinary mountain. It's extremely cold, extremely hot, and extremely humid. From the mountain peak to the foot of the mountain, it won't be easy to get the fragment. Now the choice is yours."
Mo Shisheng remained silent, answering the other party with her actions. The other party seemed to have expected this outcome and chuckled softly.
In this void, it took Mo Shisheng countless hours to finally cross the lush greenery at the foot of the mountain, a few beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
Due to the unique nature of this space, one cannot reach the summit with the help of other means; the only way is to hike up the mountain on foot. From a distance, climbing this mountain doesn't seem difficult at all, but once you're there, you realize how naive you are.
Mo Shisheng glanced back at the green shade behind her, then looked down at the barren land beneath her feet. Due to the lack of vegetation, the ground temperature was soaring, and the air currents on the ground were visible swaying.
Since setting foot on this land, Mo Shisheng's body had been continuously losing water. In a state of extreme dehydration, without timely water intake, she was prone to confusion or even unconsciousness. Walking step by step under the scorching sun, Mo Shisheng's clothes were soaked with sweat, and her face was red from prolonged sun exposure.
"Ah Sheng, Ah Sheng!" Mo Shisheng struggled to drag herself along, her consciousness beginning to waver, when she heard Ming Beiya's voice.
Mo Shisheng felt dizzy and the sounds in her mind suddenly disappeared, leaving only exhaustion.
She slowly opened her eyes and met Ming Beiya's dark, jade-like eyes.
