Chapter 45: Stone Stele Forest and Swamp



"Bai Di, how long do we have to walk?" Blore asked a little uneasily. He felt that the stones in his backpack seemed to be about to melt the backpack.

Bai Di naturally also noticed that Blore's backpack was emitting an unusual golden light, but in this unfamiliar place, no one could predict what danger they would encounter next.

At this moment, they could even clearly hear the sound of liquid flowing under their feet and the crackling sound of clouds moving in the sky.

Blore didn't find it strange that Bai Di didn't respond to him. He just observed the surrounding environment curiously.

He discovered that the bark of these trees was not wrinkled like that of ordinary trees. Instead, it felt smooth and cold to the touch, giving off a hint of chill. This made him even more curious, and he couldn't help but want to pick a leaf to take a look.

There was a soft, sweet snap, like the sound of jade breaking. The leaf, as beautiful as emerald, was not as strong as Blore had imagined, and he tore it off easily. However, at the same time, dark green sap spurted from the leaf, solidifying into crystals in the blink of an eye and falling to the ground.

Blore turned his head hurriedly and found that Bai Di was observing the tree like him. He felt relieved and quietly put the things into his bag.

But Bai Di had already seen it and glared at him fiercely.

Blore lowered his head, feeling somewhat guilty, and hurried to his side. The two continued on their way.

Speaking of moving forward, the two had no idea where to go. After all, who knew whether this place would follow normal rules.

"Bai Di, do you think this stone has any use? It feels so strange!" Blore asked Bai Di as they walked.

Bai Di hissed, "Is it that when this stone starts to get hot, you can see things a little more clearly?"

Blore said, as if suddenly enlightened. "That makes sense! It's still a little blurry, but it's better than nothing."

"That's even stranger..."

Bai Di didn't know either. Looking at his eyes that were shining with golden light, he really didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

Although he had some memories of Hermes, they were so scarce that they were of no help to them at all.

As we were walking, the sky suddenly changed without any reason.

At that moment, the sky suddenly turned pitch black, as if covered by a huge black cloth. Everything around was plunged into darkness, only the emerald leaves on the forest emitted a strange light, like twinkling stars in the night sky.

The two men stopped, their brows furrowed, their eyes scanning the surroundings warily. Their heartbeats were remarkably clear in the silence, as if they were the only sound in the darkness.

Suddenly, the Milky Way appeared in the sky, like a huge, brilliant river stretching across the horizon. Its light illuminated the entire sky, and against the emerald leaves of the trees, it created a dreamlike scene.

The stars in the Milky Way twinkled brightly, like countless jewels inlaid on the black sky. Their light shone through the gaps between the leaves and sprinkled on the ground, forming patches of mottled light and shadow.

The two were shocked by the magnificent sight. They stood there quietly, looking up at the sky.

"What... is this?" Blore looked at the scene in front of him, confused. He had expected to see something dangerous or strange, but in the end it was such a strange sight.

Bai Di frowned, thinking to himself, "This place is getting weirder and weirder. How could a Milky Way suddenly appear?" He couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong, but he felt a vague sense of oppression, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching them from the shadows.

Blore's perception was stronger than Bai Di's, but he didn't reveal a word to Bai Di, perhaps because this kind of peeping didn't pose a substantial threat. In other words, at least for now, these peepers wouldn't cause them any harm.

As time passed, the moon gradually set, the stars began to fade. The sky gradually brightened, and the Milky Way disappeared into the distant horizon. However, the beauty and awe of that moment remained deeply etched in their hearts.

Despite his doubts, Bai Di still felt the owner of this illusion had no ill intentions. So, what did this sudden appearance of the Milky Way mean? Was it some kind of hint?

Blore's mind was also in a state of confusion, and the Milky Way was lingering in his mind, confusing him.

Moreover, the river he had seen in the forest before seemed to have flowed down from the sky and then came to the human world. What was the connection between the two? He was not sure...

The two of them had different thoughts, but neither of them said anything.

So I continued to move forward despite that inexplicable gaze.

Nansong and Matuan watched their every move intently. When darkness fell, when their eyes fell on Yinhe, an indescribable feeling surged in their hearts.

Recalling the scene in the forest, except for Bai Di, the other three had also seen the river. Although some saw more, some saw less, but even if it was just a brief glimpse, the shocking scene would surely be deeply imprinted in the depths of memory.

Ma Tuan and Nan Song had already removed the golden bead that had inexplicably appeared within the dragon pattern. Then, all the patterns instantly vanished without a trace. However, the golden stone didn't seem to have much of an impact. After being taken out, it lay quietly in Nan Song's palm.

The two looked at the thing that suddenly appeared, but didn't find anything special about it, so they continued to pay full attention to Blore and the other two in the forest.
