Chapter 172 The Sacred



...As the old monk's words drifted in the wind, people everywhere seemed to be inspired by a mysterious positive energy. They not only discussed it but also took action to cheer on the guardians who were both distant and close at hand.

In a bustling market, vendors busied themselves while discussing the Guardians' heroic deeds. A young stall owner excitedly told an older woman buying vegetables, "Have you heard? Those Guardians are said to be able to withstand even the greatest crises! I wish I had half their courage!" The woman smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Courage is born out of necessity, young man. Who knows, you might become the next legend?"

In a remote town, children sat around an old locust tree, listening to the village elders tell the legendary stories of the guardians. A little girl with pigtails asked with bright eyes, "Grandpa, do the guardians ever feel afraid?" The old man patted her head affectionately and said, "Everyone feels afraid sometimes, but they taught us that even when we are afraid, we must stand up for the people and things that matter. That is true courage."

At this moment, the three guardians are also facing even more difficult choices and tests on their respective journeys.

The hunter stood before the carcass of the sand beast he had just conquered, gazing at the slowly rising sun in the distance, his heart filled with mixed emotions. A passing traveler witnessed this scene and couldn't help but stop, whispering in awe, "Truly a legendary hero! How much hard work and sacrifice must have gone into his power?" Hearing this, the hunter's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile. He turned to the traveler and said, "Everyone can be the hero of their own story, as long as you are willing to pay the price for your beliefs."

The scholar solved the final puzzle, and the ancient stone tablet slowly moved aside, revealing a path leading to the seal of evil forces. A young girl in the accompanying group asked nervously and curiously, "What will happen next?" The scholar took a deep breath, his eyes resolute, "It is hope, and it is also unknown. But as we have learned, the light of knowledge will illuminate the way forward, and we will no longer be walking alone."

After surviving a storm, the young girl and boy on their sky journey landed on a peaceful floating island. The island's inhabitants, seeing them, gathered around, their eyes filled with curiosity and respect. An elderly man excitedly grasped their hands, saying, "You descended from the sky like messengers of God, bringing us boundless imagination and strength." The little boy looked up and earnestly replied, "We are just ordinary people, but we become strong because of everyone's faith."

The story reaches a delicate balance here, with each character influencing the world around them in their own way, and these seemingly insignificant interactions are quietly changing everything.

Finally, on a bright and sunny day, the three guardians, guided by fate, gathered at the entrance to an ancient and sacred ruin. Without words, they communicated through unwavering glances, understanding each other's resolve. Then, the old monk appeared with his disciples, handing them a heavy scroll, his voice filled with the weight of time: "This is the complete ancient prophecy, containing the key to defeating evil forces. You are the hope of the world."

The hunter took the scroll, and the scholar and the little girl moved closer, forming a circle of four that seemed to create an unshakeable alliance. The hunter spoke, his voice steady: "No matter how treacherous the road ahead, as long as we are together, nothing is impossible."

The scholar added with a smile: "Yes, knowledge, courage, conviction, and most importantly—unity, these are our weapons."

The little girl held the little boy's hand, her eyes shining with determination: "There is still hope, and everyone's support."

At that moment, the whole world seemed to hold its breath, even the air was filled with a sense of impending power. And at this crucial moment, the story abruptly ended, leaving endless suspense and anticipation.

"So, what will happen next?" the little boy asked innocently.

“Next,” the old monk said meaningfully, “is the time for you to make history…”

The dialogue ended, the stage for the story was set, and all that remained was for the thrilling final chapter to slowly unfold.

The market bustled with activity once more, the conversations of vendors and customers filled with adoration and anticipation for the guardians. "Do you think they can really find the way to defeat the evil spirit?" a cloth-selling woman whispered to the blacksmith beside her. "If anyone can do it, it must be them," the blacksmith replied softly, his eyes brimming with hope for the future.

Under the old locust tree in the town, the story continued, and the children gathered even closer, afraid of missing a single detail. "Grandpa, how will the guardians use that scroll?" the little girl with pigtails asked impatiently. The old man squinted, as if he could see a distant scene. "It will be a test of wisdom and courage. They will embark on an unprecedented adventure to find the secrets hidden in the ancient texts."

Meanwhile, within the ruins, the three guardians face ancient mysteries and challenges. The Hunter grips the scroll tightly, every muscle in his body speaking of unwavering resolve. "This is not just a battle, but a test of will," he tells his companions.

The scholar gently traced the ancient patterns on the stone wall and said in a deep voice, "The key lies hidden here. We need to understand the wisdom of our ancestors and unravel its true meaning." As he spoke, a glint of all-knowing insight flashed in his eyes.

The little boy and girl huddled together, their hands clasped tightly. "We can help too, right?" the little boy asked confidently, looking at the little girl. She nodded, her eyes reflecting an indomitable spirit. "Of course, we're part of the team."

Outside, rumors about the guardians spread like wildfire, and people's lives were transformed by this anticipation. In a teahouse, a wandering poet was playing and singing a newly composed song: "They are the heroes under the starry night, defending every ordinary dream with their flesh and blood..."

The audience was captivated. A young farmer excitedly said to his companion, "I really hope to see them in person, even just once." His companion patted him on the back, a smile tinged with longing. "Who says you can't? Maybe one day, we can become part of their story too."

Just as the world's attention was focused on these guardians, a tremor emanated from the depths of the ancient ruins, as if something was awakening. The three guardians exchanged a glance, a look of unspoken trust and resolve.

"Are you ready?" the hunter's deep voice rang out, his weapon already prepared.

"Always." The scholars and children said in unison, their unwavering resolve making even the dust in the air tremble.

Just then, from the depths of the ruins, a faint light flashed, accompanied by a low murmur, like the cold laughter of evil forces welcoming the impending challenge. The three guardians exchanged glances, not with fear, but with an unwavering belief in victory.

“No matter what lies ahead,” the hunter said in a deep voice, “we must let everyone know that light will eventually dispel darkness.”

“And knowledge,” the scholar continued, “is our most powerful shield.”

The little girl clenched her fist, her gaze resolute. "There is still hope, and that is sharper than any weapon."

The little boy looked up at the crowd, his innocent face filled with determination, "Together, there's nothing we can't overcome!"

As their words faded, the entire ruins seemed to echo, as if everything in heaven and earth was bearing witness to the impending final battle. The story paused here, leaving people with endless room for imagination, everyone anticipating the glorious chapter of the final showdown.

"Next," the little boy's voice rang out again, full of curiosity and anticipation, "what will they encounter?"

"All the answers," the old monk replied softly from afar, his gaze piercing through time and space as if he could already see the future, "will be revealed in their actions..."
