Chapter 110 How to prove trust?

As the two were talking, the scene before them suddenly changed, revealing a vast sea of ​​stars, with dazzling starlight falling, as if they were in the universe. At the center of this starry sea floated a bead emitting a soft light, a light that was warm and pure, the very light they had been searching for.

"Finally found it!" Zi Yan was overjoyed and was about to step forward to take it when a sudden barrier blocked her way.

A phantom voice echoed in my ears: "If you wish to take my glory, you must first prove the light within your hearts."

Xiao Chong stepped forward, facing the invisible barrier. "We are willing to accept the test! Please tell us, how can we prove it?"

"Prove the trust and sacrifice between you." The voice gradually faded away, and two identical Zi Yan appeared in the illusion, one real and one fake, with identical appearance and movements. Only the tacit understanding between their hearts could distinguish them.

Xiao Chong took a deep breath, looked at the two figures of Zi Yan, and made up his mind. He slowly walked to Zi Yan on the left, extended his hand, and said gently but firmly, "Whether you are real or fake, I am willing to believe you and face everything that comes next together."

Zi Yan on the right trembled, her eyes reddened slightly, and then she turned into starlight and disappeared. On the left, Zi Yan's eyes flashed with gratitude as she grasped Xiao Chong's hand. At that moment, the barrier shattered, and the radiance of light flew into Xiao Chong's palm, transforming into a warm power that flowed into his body.

"We did it..." Zi Yan whispered, her eyes filled with emotion.

Xiao Chong smiled and handed the Radiant Glow to Zi Yan, "No, we did it together."

The moment Xiao Chong and Zi Yan stepped out of the illusion, the scene before them changed abruptly.

The original mesmerizing light and shadow were replaced by a vast, boundless desert, where the setting sun, like blood, stained the golden sea of ​​sand with a dark red hue.

The two smiled at each other, their tightly clasped hands conveying mutual trust and strength.

"This should be the world outside the illusion. It seems our test is not over yet," Zi Yan said softly, her eyes scanning her surroundings warily, sensitive to the uneasy atmosphere permeating the air.

No sooner had they finished speaking than a rapid thud of footsteps on the sand came from afar and quickly surrounded them.

Amidst the sandstorm, pairs of eerie green eyes gleamed with greed and savagery. Dozens of massive, gray-yellow sand wolves emerged, emitting threatening growls as they approached step by step, clearly drawn by the radiance of "Radiance."

"Are we ready? Their target is the treasure in our hands." Xiao Chong analyzed calmly, while secretly gathering his inner strength to prepare for battle.

"Fighting side by side is like being in a dream world." Zi Yan responded firmly, gently waving her hands. A faint light shone from her palms, transforming into a crystal-clear lightsaber that shimmered with a captivating brilliance.

"Come on!" Xiao Chong shouted, his inner energy surging, and his figure suddenly stretched out like a soaring eagle, rushing straight to the sand wolf at the front.

He clenched his fists, and it was as if a crack was torn open in the air, with a powerful shockwave blasting towards the enemy as his fists swung.

The battle erupted instantly. The sand wolf pack launched a fierce attack, their claws and fangs gleaming coldly in the sunlight. However, Xiao Chong and Zi Yan cooperated perfectly, one attacking and the other defending, like a pair of battle-hardened warriors, deflecting the sand wolves' attacks one by one.

"Be careful, there are too many of them!" Zi Yan warned as she fought, her lightsaber drawing dazzling trails, each strike precise and deadly, clearing a clearing.

"We need to find a way to escape." Xiao Chong panted, his eyes searching around, when suddenly his eyes lit up. "Over there! Look at that boulder, it can be used as cover."

The two quickly moved towards the boulder, using the terrain to temporarily hold off the wolf pack's attack. Xiao Chong took out a crystal from his pocket, infused it with his true energy, and the crystal shone brightly, forming a protective shield that temporarily blocked the sand wolves' attack.

"This can't go on; we need to find a way to solve this completely."

Zi Yan frowned; her voice was somewhat anxious, but her eyes remained firm.

Just then, Xiao Chong had a sudden inspiration. "Since the Radiance of Light can guide us through the test, perhaps it can also help us quell this crisis." As he spoke, he raised the Radiance of Light high above his head, and the light became even more dazzling, gradually emitting a reassuring aura.

Sensing this power, the sand wolves gradually slowed their ferocious attacks, eventually crouching down and their hostility in their green eyes fading.

"They... seem to have been appeased?" Zi Yan was surprised, and slowly withdrew the lightsaber in her hand.

"Yes, the Radiance of Light not only possesses the power of healing and purification, but can also touch the peace deep within the hearts of living beings." Xiao Chong gently stroked the Radiance of Light, his tone full of emotion.

Just as the two thought the crisis was over, a deep voice suddenly rang out, breaking the brief silence.

"Oh? This 'Radiance of Light' can actually dispel the wildness of the sand wolves. That's quite surprising." A mysterious figure draped in a black robe slowly stepped out of the shadows, a smile of interest playing on his lips.

"Who are you? What is your purpose?" Xiao Chong stood guard in front of Zi Yan, protecting Guang Zhi Ying Ze tightly.

The mysterious figure chuckled. "Who I am is not important. What is important is that I am very interested in the 'Radiance of Light' in your possession. If you are willing to hand it over to me, perhaps we can make a deal."

"I'm sorry, 'Radiance of Light' is something we obtained through great hardship, and we will not easily hand it over to others," Zi Yan replied firmly, gripping Xiao Chong's hand tightly to make her stance clear.

"Then don't blame me for being impolite." The mysterious man's tone suddenly turned cold, a flash of light appeared in his sleeve, and a new contest was about to begin...

The black-robed man swayed, and the darkness around him seemed to materialize. As space twisted, jet-black, chilling iron chains roared out, hurtling towards Xiao Chong and Zi Yan with a whooshing sound.

"Watch out!" Xiao Chong shouted, his body suddenly shifting to the side. He and Zi Yan moved like serpents through the narrow space, skillfully avoiding the iron chains that seemed to bind souls. A resolute glint flashed in his eyes, and his palms warmed slightly, a sign that the power within him was surging.

Zi Yan followed closely behind, her eyes flashing with a strange purple light, clearly also secretly mobilizing her own abilities. "Chong, we can't just keep hiding, we have to find an opportunity to fight back," she said softly, her voice low but filled with undeniable determination.

"I understand," Xiao Chong replied, his sharp eyes capturing the subtle gaps between the chains, while a plan already formed in his mind. Suddenly, he stopped, grabbed Zi Yan's hand, and spun her around sharply, instantly changing their positions and cleverly using a blind spot in the chain to temporarily evade the attack.

The man in black robes sneered, "You can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever. Hand over 'Radiant Light,' and I might consider sparing your lives."
