"No matter how bumpy the road ahead is, as long as we have light in our hearts, we can light each other's way." Su Mo held Bai Ling's hand tightly and made a promise to the vast starry sky, while Bai Ling held back tightly, and the two of them People's eyes are full of determination.
"Let's go, Bai Ling, and set off towards the Holy Light Valley. Along the way, I have a hunch that we will encounter more challenges, but we will also gain extraordinary experience and strength." Su Mo's voice was firm, and his eyes passed through In the night, it seemed as if I had already seen the legendary holy land.
They left the village and passed through rolling hills and winding rivers. Whenever they stopped to rest, there would always be curious passers-by asking about their destination and why they carried a unique temperament.
"Are you warriors going to the Holy Light Valley?" A traveler with a weathered face stopped and looked at the two of them carefully. "Few people dare to mention that name, let alone actually look for it."
"Don't be a warrior, we are just chasing the light in our hearts." Su Mo responded humbly, but the determination in his eyes was unquestionable.
"Holy Light Valley, that is a mysterious and dangerous place. According to legend, not only does it hide endless knowledge, but there are also guardians who test the determination and purity of every visitor." The traveler sighed, with both envy and worry in his eyes.
"Determined and pure, we are ready." Bai Ling said confidently, patting the cloth bag hanging on his waist, where some simple supplies they obtained from the villagers were stored, as well as the handful containing unknown The Ares Sword of Power.
As the journey progresses, rumors and legends gradually turn into strange sights witnessed with one's own eyes. They passed by a cursed withered forest. The trees were twisted and even the sky seemed to be dyed gray. Just as they were crossing cautiously, a mother and son appeared in front of them, standing helplessly among a dead tree.
"Are you also here to look for the heroes to save this land?" When the woman saw Su Mo and Bai Ling, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by despair. "We heard that the healers in the Holy Light Valley have a way. But we are too weak to get there.”
"Don't worry, we will do our best." Su Mo agreed without hesitation, while Bai Ling had already begun to use her natural power to try to alleviate the curse in this area. Progress was slow, but it did bring about subtle changes, and some dead branches seemed to be revitalized.
"You...you are really the chosen ones!" the woman exclaimed, while her son's eyes were wide open, full of reverence for the hero.
Such an episode makes the journey of Su Mo and Bai Ling full of meaning. They are not only pursuing self-growth and strength, but also helping those struggling on the edge of darkness. The news spread like wildfire, and more and more passers-by learned about their stories. Some people joined the team, hoping to witness the legendary Valley of Holy Light with their own eyes; others silently cheered for them on the roadside and sent them their best wishes. wishes.
Finally, after experiencing one challenge after another, they came to the entrance of the Holy Light Valley - a hidden valley hidden among the Lianmian Mountains. The entrance is covered by a layer of mist, looming like a natural barrier, blocking the entry of all unselected people.
"We're here." Su Mo said softly, sweat dripping from his palms involuntarily. The God of War sword seemed to feel the owner's excitement at this moment, trembling slightly and emitting a soft light.
Bai Ling took a deep breath and held Su Mo's hand: "No matter what is waiting for us, we will face it together. Holy Light Valley, we are here."
Just as they were about to step into the mysterious mist, a white-haired old man suddenly appeared in front of them. He was dressed simply, but his eyes were as deep as the abyss.
"It has been a long time since young people came here. Your hearts are pure and brave. I have been waiting for you for a long time." The old man's tone was calm, but it made people feel awe.
"Excuse me, are you..." Su Mo asked hesitantly, not knowing whether this old man was the guardian or the guide of the Holy Light Valley.
"I am one of the guardians here, responsible for testing every soul seeking knowledge and power." The old man smiled, his eyes wandering back and forth between Su Mo and Bai Ling, "If you want to enter the Holy Light Valley, you need to go through a This trial proves that you are not only powerful, but also wise and compassionate.”
"Please tell us the content of the trial. No matter what it is, we are willing to accept it." Bai Ling replied firmly, her eyes shining with desire for the unknown and unyielding will.
"Very good, the trial is actually very simple, but also extremely difficult." The old man spoke slowly, and the air around him seemed to solidify, "You need to find the lost garden deep in the Holy Light Valley and bring back a famous flower. The strange thing that is the 'Flower of Faith'. Remember, the real challenge is not to find the flower, but to keep your heart uncontaminated and always towards the light."
"The Lost Garden...Flower of Faith...We understand." Su Mo nodded heavily. They knew that this trial was not only a test of physical strength and wisdom, but also a baptism of faith and purity in their hearts.
"Then, I wish you good luck, young warriors." After the old man said that, he turned into a ray of light and dissipated in the air, leaving only Su Mo and Bai Ling, who stepped into the Holy Light with their longing and determination for the unknown. The mysterious realm of the valley.
The scenery in the valley is strange. The sunlight penetrates the mist and shines on the colorful vegetation, making the entire valley look mysterious and peaceful. Along the way, they met many exotic flowers and plants, and every step seemed like they had stepped into another world. Along the way, they also accidentally rescued a young scholar who accidentally fell into a trap. He called himself Ivan and had a strong interest in the history and legend of the Valley of Holy Light.
"You are so awesome that you can be recognized by the Guardian." Ivan followed them, his eyes full of admiration, "My research on the Valley of Holy Light may be of help, let's find the Lost Garden together."
The three of them traveled together, and Alvin's knowledge did help them solve many puzzles, such as deciphering the meaning of ancient runes and avoiding plants that looked beautiful but were actually poisonous. In the process, they also met other travelers seeking help from the Valley of Holy Light. Everyone had different wishes, but they were all blocked by the same trial.
"It seems that we are not the only ones looking for the Flower of Faith." At a fork in the road, Su Mo stopped and looked at several groups of people discussing the direction of travel.
"It's competition, but also mutual encouragement." Bai Ling chuckled, his eyes gentle but firm, "No matter who arrives first, the ultimate goal is to better protect the world."
As time goes by, the journey becomes more difficult. Once, while walking through a dense forest shrouded in mist, they were suddenly surrounded by a group of mysterious shadow beasts. These creatures are made of shadows and are invisible and insubstantial. Only the God of War Sword in Su Mo's hand can barely resist them. Just as the three of them were engaged in a bitter battle, a ray of warm light bloomed from Bai Ling's palm. It was the perfect fusion of her and the power of nature, which dispelled some of the shadows and gave them a glimmer of hope.
"You...are you really from the Valley of Holy Light?" Before disappearing, a shadow beast murmured something like a question and an exclamation.
After the battle, the surrounding environment became quiet again, with only the sound of the wind rustling through the leaves. Ai Wen wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Su Mo and Bai Ling with unprecedented admiration in his eyes: "What kind of power was that just now? It's incredible!"
"Everyone has a bright side in their heart, the key is whether they dare to release it." Su Mo smiled faintly, with an inexplicable power in his tone, which was the confidence and indifference accumulated after experiencing countless challenges.
Finally, after an arduous journey, they found the legendary Lost Garden. It is a miracle hidden in a huge crystal cave. All kinds of strange flowers are more dazzling under the light refracted by the crystal. In the center of the garden, a flower with soft light blooms quietly, which is the flower of faith. flower.
"We found it." Bai Ling said softly, excitement and awe flashing in his eyes.
Just as Su Mo reached out to pick it off, a gentle voice sounded: "The real test has just begun."
The speaker was an old woman with a kind face in a robe. She appeared without warning and seemed to blend in with the surrounding environment.
"Test?" Su Mo was puzzled.
"Yes," the old woman smiled, "the flower of faith does not belong to anyone. It represents the pursuit of light and immortal hope. You need to prove the purity of your heart and how this power will be used. Justice.”
"We are willing to accept any test." Su Mo and Bai Ling looked at each other and said at the same time.
"Then let us see how you understand the true meaning of faith and sacrifice." After the old woman finished speaking, she slowly closed her eyes.
Suddenly, everything around him became blurry and time seemed to stand still. Su Mo and Bai Ling found themselves in a world where light and shadow intertwined, with various choices and challenges constantly happening around them. Each choice would lead them to a different ending.
"Remember, true faith will not be shaken by external temptations or threats." Bai Ling's voice rang in Su Mo's ears. They worked together and faced every trial, adhering to their principles and principles every time. justice.
Finally, when everything calmed down, they returned to the Lost Garden again, holding the flower of faith in their hands. The old woman was standing aside with a smile, as if she had already anticipated the outcome.
"You have done a great job. A real warrior not only has strength, but more importantly, a firm and pure heart." The old woman praised.
"However, our journey is far from over." Su Mo held the Flower of Faith tightly and looked at Bai Ling and Ivan, "The outside world still needs us, and we need to bring this light back to every corner."
"Yes, let's move forward together." Bai Ling and Ivan responded in unison, their eyes shining with longing and determination for the future.
The three of them set out on their way home again, taking with them the flower of faith and the endless wisdom and power bestowed upon them by the Valley of Holy Light. They know that the road ahead is still long and full of unknowns, but as long as there is light in their hearts, they can illuminate each other and the entire world.
"Holy Light Valley, thank you for your gift, we will let this light spread to every corner." Su Mo whispered, which was a farewell to this journey and an oath to the future.
Just as they were about to leave the Lost Garden, a strange fluctuation suddenly spread in the air, and it seemed that something unusual was about to happen. The surrounding light began to flicker, and an indescribable sense of urgency enveloped everyone.
"What...is going on?" Ivan asked nervously, his voice trembling, obviously not expecting such a change.
"It seems that the Holy Light Valley is about to face an unprecedented test." The old woman's expression became solemn, "Although your journey has come to an end for the time being, a greater challenge is coming."
"Test? Does it have anything to do with us?" Bai Ling clenched the flower of faith in his hand, with both determination and doubt in his eyes.
"All those who hold beliefs will become part of this test." The old woman turned to them with a deep gaze, "An ancient and powerful dark force is ready to move, intending to erode every corner of this continent, even if Even the Valley of Holy Light cannot be alone.”
Hearing this, Su Mo frowned. He slowly drew out the God of War Sword. The light on the sword was dazzling than ever before, "What should we do? How can we resist this power?"
"The answer is not in my mouth, but in your hearts." The old woman stroked the staff in her hand, and a beam of light rose from it and slowly surrounded them. "You have proven your strength and belief. Now, listen to the voice of the world, find those partners who also have light hearts, and gather all the power of light to fight against the coming darkness.”
Just as the three of them were about to leave the garden, a loud noise came from outside the valley, and then, a young man with a hurried look stumbled in, his breath disordered and full of travel dust.
"Valley of Holy Light... cry for help... darkness invades..." The young man barely managed to squeeze out these few words before he collapsed due to exhaustion of physical strength.
Su Mo and others looked at each other, and the sudden turn of the situation caught them off guard. "We must take action to prevent the Valley of Holy Light from falling into darkness." Su Mo's words were loud and clear, and the light of the God of War sword became even brighter, as if in response to his determination.
They quickly settled the young people and decided to split up: Su Mo and Bai Ling went to the center of Holy Light Valley to assist in defense and preparation; Aiwen used his knowledge to try to contact possible allies from various places to gather resistance forces.
"Can we do it?" At the moment of separation, Alvin seemed a little uneasy.
"We are messengers of light. As long as there is light in our hearts, nothing is impossible." Su Mo patted Ai Wen on the shoulder and encouraged him. "Then, we'll see you in the Valley of Holy Light." Bai Ling said goodbye softly. In her eyes, there was not only worry about the future, but also a firm belief in victory. (End of chapter)
