Eye of Darkness

Yan Ming ran all the way, and half an hour had passed before he knew it, but strangely, Yan Ming still didn't see the black-haired boy.

"Did the other party really choose to pursue Mu Qili?"

Yan Ming was a little confused and frowned slightly.

According to normal circumstances, the black-haired boy should be tracking him now. After all, he has just been full of hatred. Although in Yan Ming's view, it was the other party's original idea to deal with Mu Qili first, but with black

Judging from the situation when Fa Juvenile allowed Mu Qili to escape before, he may not necessarily choose to pursue Mu Qili first.

So even though Yan Ming felt in his heart that the other party would give up on him, he did not slow down because of this. But now that the black-haired boy has not been seen, it can be thought that the other party should have chosen Mu Qili.

An ominous premonition arose in Yan Ming's heart.

I had exposed the existence of Candlelight Spirits before. In fact, in a sense, I had made it clear that I had been to the ruins. After all, wild Candlelight Spirits are very rare. No matter how big the trial island is, there are only a few Candlelight Spirits at most.

Assembly point.

This place is not far from the ruins, and it is clear where the Candlelight Spirit was conquered from. Anyone who knows a little bit about the existence of the ruins will know that they have been to the ruins.

What's more, the black-haired boy is an ANBU member. Judging from the few words Mu Qili previously described to the ANBU members, the other party should know the existence of the ruins. Maybe, the other party appeared here at this time because he inadvertently happened to be at the ruins.

I don't know what was triggered during this time.

But even so, the other party still did not choose to chase me, so what bottom line did Mu Qili and the others violate...

"No matter what, let's talk about it when we get to our destination!"

Thinking of this, Yan Ming stopped wasting time and accelerated his pace towards the place Zhu Guangling had chosen before.

After all, no matter how much a person thinks now, he can't come up with anything, and Glitter Ghost is still in a weak state, so he has to treat Glitter Ghost as soon as possible.

After walking forward for a while, Yan Ming saw a dark forest. As soon as he got closer, Yan Ming could feel the strange coldness emanating from the forest.

Involuntarily, Yan Ming looked at Zhu Guangling next to him, his face a little speechless.

"Zhu Guangling, are you sure this is a suitable place for us to recuperate..."

"Candlelight! Candlelight!"

Zhu Guangling nodded quickly to confirm, and at the same time, there was still some confusion on his face, as if he didn't understand why Yan Ming had the thought just now.

Seeing Zhu Guangling's appearance, Yan Ming could only sigh helplessly.

What Candlelight Spirit had previously communicated through Glitter Ghost's telepathy was that it was obviously a place with strong and comfortable energy. Well, in Candlelight Spirit's eyes, a good place is the kind of place that has vitality.

It was only now that he thought about it that Yan Ming realized that in addition to places full of vitality, candlelight spirits also seemed to like places surrounded by death. After all, they were ghost spirits...

But no matter how helpless Yan Ming was, there seemed to be no other place for them to go now.

Gritting his teeth, Yan Ming followed Zhu Guangling and continued deep into the gloomy forest in front of him.

And walking deeper into the forest, you can see a natural lake.

But this natural lake has one characteristic. It is not a very large and calm lake, but a very terrifying lake. This lake is a bloody lake.

Above the lake, a thin layer of red mist floats, covering the entire lake, making the lake look even more weird.

"This is..."

The moment Yan Ming saw the bloody lake, his pupils shrank.

Sniffing lightly with his nose, Yan Ming did not smell the smell of blood, but instead had a sweet aroma.

However, this made Yan Ming feel relieved. After all, what he had just seen outside the woods was too far from the underworld, and he happened to encounter a bright red lake, which really made people imagine.

But Yan Ming didn't expect that there would be such a strange lake in such a remote place.

"Candlelight, candlelight!"

As soon as he arrived here, Zhuguang Ling felt as if he had been injected with blood. The flame above his head changed, waving in front of Yan Ming and pointing at the lake, as if he wanted Yan Ming to follow him to the bottom of the lake.

Yan Ming looked at the anxious Zhu Guangling, then turned to look at the red lake that looked a little strange under the moonlight, feeling a little hesitant in his heart.

Although he knew that the water was not blood, Yan Ming still didn't want such strange things to contaminate him. Moreover, seeing what Zhu Guangling wanted, he still wanted to dive under the lake. Who knows what was under the lake.

However, looking at the aggrieved look on Zhu Guangling's face, Yan Ming sighed slightly, took out the flashlight from his bracelet, turned on the light and bit it in his mouth.

"Zhu Guangling, I...go down...and have a look."

Speaking inarticulately, Yan Ming used the elf ball to take the candlelight spirit in. After all, the flames above the candlelight spirit's head were real. Although it wouldn't make the rain disappear, it would still make the candlelight spirit very uncomfortable.

After gathering everything, Yan Ming took a big breath, jumped over, and jumped into this strange blood-colored lake.

After falling into the lake, Yan Ming felt as if his limbs were stuck in a quagmire. His body was extremely heavy and it was difficult to exert force.

But he had no choice. After all, he still had to take a look, so he could only resist forcefully. Fortunately, it wasn't too much of a hindrance, it just slowed down Yan Ming's movement.

But after coming down, Yan Ming found that the lake was not as weird as he imagined. On the contrary, Yan Ming could feel the warmth of the lake water, and he could also feel the clarity of the lake water. This made Yan Ming breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that

This lake is not as scary as imagined.

Thinking about it, Yan Ming slowly swam towards the bottom of the lake, looking for possible abnormalities.

I went back and forth several times to breathe, and as I went lower, the pressure of the lake became stronger and stronger.

However, Yan Ming did not flinch at all. He could hold his breath for a long time. What's more, Yan Ming knew that Zhu Guangling would not deceive him. Since he was so eager to come down by himself, there must be something wrong.

While Yan Ming was searching, Yan Ming suddenly saw a gray stone slab suddenly appearing somewhere at the bottom of the lake. This stone slab was round in shape, about three meters long and about two meters wide, and on the stone slab

In the center, there is a ruby ​​the size of a fist.

The ruby ​​glows softly under the light, and there are many ancient textual decorations around the ruby.

"this....."

Looking at the ruby ​​on the stone slab at the bottom of the lake, Yan Ming was surprised, because it was very similar to the one Yan Ming had seen at the ruins!

However, knowing that he was under water, Yan Ming did not dare to be negligent and quickly devoted his attention to the stone slab, carefully observing the words and patterns on the stone slab.

Soon, Yan Ming discovered that the words on the stone slab were slightly different from the words and patterns on the ruby ​​​​he saw. Moreover, it did not retain the mysterious piece on the stone door.

Looking at the ruby ​​in front of him, Yan Ming did not feel anything unusual about himself.

Coming to this conclusion, Yan Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

The impact on the ruins at that time is still fresh in my mind. If something happened underwater, the risk factor would be much greater.

After changing his breath several times, Yan Ming searched for a long time. Except for the stone slab just now, there was nothing unusual around him. Fortunately, Yan Ming returned to the stone slab again. This time, he tentatively got closer.

Nothing unusual was found.

"Is this the stone slab that Zhu Guangling is talking about..."

But just when Yan Ming was about to go up for air again, his brows suddenly frowned.

"Huh?! Why do I feel a strange energy fluctuation?"

Feeling this energy fluctuation, Yan Ming narrowed his eyes. Under the bottom of the lake, there were such wonderful energy fluctuations.

This energy fluctuation was completely different from the weird blood-colored lake that he had just come into contact with. The first impression this energy fluctuation gave Yan Ming was that it was gentle.

There was no trace of malice in it. On the contrary, after the energy wave appeared, the worries in Yan Ming's heart disappeared inexplicably. This energy wave made people feel warm, close, and friendly, and even Yan Ming could

Feeling the hidden wounds that my body has received before.

At this moment, Yan Ming gradually recovered, as if he was intact as before. At this moment, Yan Ming felt very relaxed and comfortable.

However, this kind of relaxation and comfort only lasted for a second, and Yan Ming immediately became vigilant. After all, this energy fluctuation was too strange for Yan Ming to dare to be careless.

While Yan Ming was on alert, he suddenly discovered that the pressure in the lake had gradually reduced a lot as the energy fluctuated.

Seeing this scene, Yan Ming was confused, but feeling the flow of water around him, Yan Ming suddenly felt something bad.

Sure enough, at the next moment, the pressure of the lake suddenly increased, and under the influence of this pressure, a whirlpool-like channel gradually began to rise in the area where Yan Ming was, trying to suck Yan Ming into it.

Although Yan Ming approached the stone slab, he kept a certain safe distance out of caution, so although he felt a suction, it was not strong.

"what is that?"

At this moment, Yan Ming suddenly saw that there seemed to be a water film at the end of the whirlpool?

That place... seems to be the area where the stone slab was just now...

Yan Ming opened his eyes wide in surprise, muttering inwardly in disbelief.

Because Yan Ming felt that the scene in front of him was a bit fantastic. How did the fast water film look like the surface of the water...

Just as Yan Ming was thinking about it, the attraction gradually expanded, with the intention of pulling Yan Ming into it.

But this time, because of the reassuring feelings in the surrounding environment, Yan Ming did not make any resistance and directly allowed himself to be pulled into the water film.

"Huh~!"

Passing through the water film that was as thin as the cicada's wings, Yan Ming felt that something seemed to be changing around him, and there was an inexplicable force disturbing the place where Yan Ming was.

Fortunately, this force did not hurt him. It just made Yan Ming's head a little dizzy and did not hurt Yan Ming.

After the power disappeared, Yan Ming discovered that he had actually appeared in a circular pool. The water in the pool was reddishly different from before. It was actually transparent, and there were lights on it that looked like twinkling stars.

of star points.

"This is...."

Yan Ming looked at the pool in confusion. The pool was not that big. It was more than ten meters wide in diameter. Looking down, it was dark red. In the open ground around the pool, there were many flowers and plants growing. On the sides of the pool,

On the edge, there were also carp kings playing. When I looked up, I found it was a stone wall.

In the distance on the shore is a grassland, with colorful stones of different colors on both sides of the grassland, lighting up the cave and leading into the distance.

Looking at everything in front of him, Yan Ming couldn't help but be speechless.

Good guy, why did you come to a cave again? Stop your nesting doll behavior.
