Chapter 160: The Secret Origin of Mysterious Power

Searching for the Secret Origin of Mysterious Power

A golden light flashed, and a tall and burly figure stood in front of me.

He was wearing golden armor and holding a long sword. He exuded a powerful aura, like a god descending from heaven.

Before I could see his face clearly, he was already fighting with the shadow demon.

The sword light and the black mist intertwined, making a deafening roar, and the surrounding trees trembled.

Hao Yang struggled to stand up, walked to my side and asked worriedly, "Yao'er, are you okay?" I shook my head, my eyes fixed on the battle in front of me, my heart in my throat.

This guardian who suddenly appeared was so powerful that he could fight the Shadow Demon on equal terms.

But Shadow Demon is, after all, a demon who has absorbed new power, and his strength should not be underestimated.

After a long fight, the guardian gradually showed signs of fatigue.

The Shadow Demon found an opening and slapped the Guardian's chest with his palm.

The guardian was knocked back several steps, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

"Yao'er, we can't just wait here!" Hao Yang took my hand, "We have to find a way to help him!"

I gritted my teeth and was about to mobilize the little remaining profound energy in my body, but I found that the direction in which the guardian was repelled was exactly where the golden light appeared before.

There……

Something seemed to be attracting me.

Without thinking too much, I grabbed Hao Yang and ran in that direction.

"Let's go over there!"

Although Hao Yang was confused, he followed me without hesitation.

When the Shadow Demon saw us running away, he let out an angry roar and chased after us.

"Want to run? It's not that easy!"

I looked back and saw that the Shadow Demon was extremely fast and was about to catch up with us.

I made up my mind and tried my best to speed up.

closer, closer...

The golden light became increasingly dazzling, and a powerful force came from the front, as if calling me...

Suddenly, everything in front of me changed.

"This... what is this place..." Hao Yang's voice sounded in my ears with a hint of trembling.

The golden light faded, and Hao Yang and I found ourselves in a strange space.

The surrounding stone walls are engraved with ancient runes, shining with a faint blue light, like stars twinkling in the night sky.

A powerful force filled the entire space, making me feel the new power in my body stirring.

Is it...

Is this the source of my new power?

I subconsciously touched my chest, and an inexplicable throbbing surged in my heart.

These runes...

I seem to have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember where.

They seem to be telling something, an ancient and mysterious story, and I seem to be a part of the story.

"Yao'er, be careful!" Hao Yang's exclamation interrupted my thoughts.

Damn it! I forgot about Shadow Fiend!

I saw that black fog, like a maggot on the tarsal bone, chasing us closely, and now it was making a sharp whistle and rushing towards us.

I hurriedly pulled Hao Yang to avoid the Shadow Demon's attack.

Although this space is strange, it gives us a glimmer of hope.

Those flashing runes seemed to have some kind of restraining effect on the Shadow Demon.

Whenever the Shadow Fiend approaches the rune, its speed slows down and the black mist becomes thinner.

"These runes... seem to be able to suppress it!" I shouted in surprise.

While dodging the Shadow Fiend's attacks, we looked for patterns and tried to get close to the runes to use them to restrict the Shadow Fiend's movements.

The shadow demon was trapped in the rune array, roaring angrily, but unable to get close to us.

Its black mist continued to dissipate under the light of the runes, making a sizzling sound, like ice and snow encountering fire.

I looked at the gradually weakened Shadow Fiend, and a glimmer of hope ignited in my heart.

Maybe we can really defeat it!

Suddenly, the runes in the space shone brightly, and an even more powerful force emerged.

I felt the new strength in my body cheering, as if it had found a home.

"Hao Yang, look..." I pointed ahead, my voice trembling slightly.

In the center of the rune's light, a figure slowly emerged...

In the golden light, a figure slowly solidified.

It was a tall, faceless man, surrounded by a faint golden light, making it impossible to see his true appearance.

But the aura he exuded made me feel extremely familiar, even...

kind.

"You are..." I started to speak tentatively, but found that my voice was trembling.

The figure nodded slightly, and an ancient and vicissitudes of life voice sounded directly in my mind: "Child, you are finally here."

child?

Is he calling me?

My heart was full of doubts, but I also felt a hint of excitement.

This feels like...

Just like going home.

At the same time, the shadow demon trapped by the rune let out a shrill roar the moment he saw this figure, and the black fog rolled violently, as if he had encountered a natural enemy and tried frantically to escape.

But the figure just raised his hand slightly, and the rolling black fog instantly calmed down, as if it was strangled by an invisible big hand and could not move.

Hao Yang had been guarding me vigilantly the whole time, and now he relaxed a little, but there was still a hint of wariness in his eyes.

He held my hand tightly and whispered, "Yao'er, be careful." I nodded, held his hand in my backhand, and gave him a reassuring look.

The figure slowly turned towards me. Although I couldn't see his face clearly, I could feel his eyes on me with an indescribable kindness.

"Child, your power originates from the ancient galaxy, powerful and mysterious. But this power also brings many dangers. To truly master it, you must complete a trial..."

Trial? My heart skipped a beat. A premonition told me that this trial would definitely not be easy.

The figure seemed to see through my thoughts, and with a slight wave of his hand, the scene in front of me began to change.

We seemed to be in a galaxy, with countless stars shining brightly, beautiful and mysterious.

"Come, child..." The figure's voice sounded again, "Your destiny will begin from here..."

He stretched out his hand and pointed forward. There was endless darkness...

My hand reached out involuntarily...
