Chapter 89 Quick Guide to the God of Elements (IV)
"Don't be nervous, it's me."
A gentle voice came from above, carrying a hint of familiarity.
"Mona?"
I looked up in surprise and saw a slender figure slowly descending along the rope. In the dim light, I couldn't see her expression, but her bright eyes were flashing with worry. She is my distant relative and we only see each other once a year.
"What brings you here?"
I asked in a low voice, enduring the pain in my body.
Mona didn't answer. She walked over to me, carefully checked my injuries, and then took out a bottle of medicine from her arms and handed it to me: "Drink it first."
I took the medicine and drank it in one gulp. A warm current immediately flowed through my body and the pain was relieved a lot.
"Who are those people? Why are they chasing you?"
Mona's voice was very soft, but with a barely perceptible tremor.
I was silent for a moment and briefly told her what had happened.
"It looks like you're in big trouble."
Mona frowned after hearing my story. "Those people are assassins of the Black Wind Organization. They specialize in handling shady activities for some powerful and wealthy people. They are ruthless and very good at tracking. It may not be easy for you to get rid of their pursuit."
"The Black Wind Organization?"
My heart sank. I had heard of this organization before; it was a very mysterious and powerful underground force, but I never thought they would target me.
"Your magical powers are very unstable,"
Mona suddenly changed the subject and stared at me closely with her beautiful eyes.
"I feel that your heart is filled with anger and hatred, which will affect your control over the elemental power and may even backfire on you."
"I……"
I opened my mouth, but I didn't know what to say. Mona was right. Ever since I came to this world, I have been living in danger and fear. The anger and hatred in my heart are growing day by day. I am almost losing myself.
"You need to calm down,"
Mona's voice became gentle, "Find the true power within you. Only then can you control magic and your own power."
After saying that, Mona stood up and stretched out her hand to me... I looked up at Mona, her eyes were full of sincerity and encouragement, and I reached out my hand and held her warm and soft palm.
Mona pulled me out of the cold, damp bottom of the trap, and we returned to the surface, where the cool night breeze caressed my face and sobered me up a little.
"Where are we going now?"
I asked Mona, my tone full of confusion.
"Go to a safe place,"
Mona did not answer my question directly, but turned to the east.
"Come with me."
We headed east, through dense forests, over rugged mountains, and finally arrived at a quiet valley at dawn.
The valley is filled with birdsong, flowers and gurgling streams, just like a paradise. Mona told me that this is her residence, and only the people she trusts the most know about it.
"Your elemental power is very unstable. You need to learn to control it, not be controlled by it."
Mona looked at me seriously. "From now on, I will teach you how to meditate, how to feel the power of the elements, and how to communicate with the elements."
I sat cross-legged on the soft grass, closed my eyes, and tried to clear my mind.
However, those horrific scenes kept appearing in my mind: the scene of my parents' tragic death, the fear of being hunted down, and the confusion and helplessness about the future...
These negative emotions gnawed at my heart like a poisonous snake, making it impossible for me to calm down.
"Don't resist, try to accept them."
Mona's voice rang in my ears, as if coming from the distant sky.
"Your anger, your hatred, your fear, are all part of your power. Only by facing them can you truly control them."
I tried to follow Mona's instructions, and slowly, I felt myself entering a wonderful state.
I seemed to be in a vast sea of stars, surrounded by countless twinkling stars, each of which represented the power of an element.
I feel their energy fluctuations, their joys and sorrows, and the subtle connection between them and me...
Time passed by unknowingly, and I felt my heart gradually calm down. The negative emotions that had troubled me gradually dissipated, and were replaced by an unprecedented tranquility and peace.
"Good, you did a great job."
Mona's voice was filled with relief. "Now, try to mobilize the elemental power in your body and use it for your benefit."
I took a deep breath and focused my mind on my dantian, where there seemed to be a ball of hot flame burning.
I tried to direct this energy, letting it flow through my meridians throughout my body and finally converge into my hands.
At this moment, a strong evil aura suddenly descended upon the valley. Mona's face changed and she cried out in a low voice: "Oh no, the Black Wind Monster is here again!"
I suddenly opened my eyes and saw a huge black shadow covering the entire valley. The Black Wind Monster's scarlet eyes were staring at me, full of greed and desire to kill.
"This time, I'm going to tear you into pieces!"
The Black Wind Monster let out a deafening roar and rushed towards me, waving its sharp claws.
"Get out of the way!"
Mona pushed me away, condensed a ball of dazzling lightning in her hand, and rushed towards the Black Wind Monster.
Boom!
With a loud bang, lightning collided with the black wind monster's sharp claws, bursting into a dazzling light.
I was blown away by the powerful shock wave and fell heavily to the ground.
"Mona!"
I struggled to get up, but saw that Mona had been hit by the black wind monster's claw and fell to the ground with blood spitting out of her mouth.
"You damn reptile!"
I roared and rushed towards the Black Wind Monster without hesitation.
"I'm going to kill you!"
The Black Wind Monster smiled contemptuously, "Only you? You don't know your own limitations!"
It suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and a strong suction force sucked me towards it...
"stop!"
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded, "You can't hurt him!"
I raised my head with great difficulty, and saw a man in white clothes falling from the sky. He held a long sword that shone with cold light, and the tip of the sword was pointed directly at the Black Wind Monster...
The suction power of the Black Wind Monster was getting stronger and stronger, and I felt that my body was being swallowed up bit by bit by it.
Just when I was about to despair, a powerful force suddenly burst out from my body.
This power was so violent, I felt like a volcano about to erupt, every cell in my body was boiling and burning!
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, a dazzling light burst out around my body, blowing both me and the Black Wind Monster away.
I fell heavily to the ground, feeling as if all the bones in my body were falling apart. The severe pain made it almost impossible for me to breathe.
But I still tried to raise my head and look in the direction of the Black Wind Monster.
The Black Wind Monster's huge body was blown dozens of meters away and crashed heavily into a towering tree, breaking the tree in half.
It struggled to stand up, but my elemental power had already caused great damage to it. It let out a painful wail and finally fell to the ground powerlessly.
"Successful? Did I defeat it?"
I looked at the scene in front of me with disbelief in my heart. But before I could be happy for long, I felt an unprecedented sense of weakness coming over me, my consciousness gradually blurred, and finally fell into endless darkness.
…
When I woke up again, I found myself lying on a soft bed and the room was filled with a faint herbal scent.
I struggled to sit up, but found that my body was weak, as if all the strength had been drained away.
"Are you awake?"
A familiar voice sounded, and I turned around and saw Mona sitting beside my bed, looking at me with a worried look on her face.
"Mona, where am I? What happened?" I asked weakly.
"This is our residence in the town. You have been unconscious for three days and three nights."
Mona said, "In order to save me, you forced the unstable magical power in your body to become like this."
"I'm fine, I hope you're fine."
I looked at Mona's pale face, my heart filled with self-blame, "It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't..."
"Now is not the time to talk about this,"
Mona interrupted me and said, "What you need most now is rest. We can talk about other things after you get better."
