Chapter 452: Evil Spirits
Pengamu beside me was also stunned, his eyes revealing familiarity and horror of this place.
His hands clenched into fists, his lips trembling slightly, revealing the uneasiness and fear in his heart.
"This ...... This is the Black Water Pool! I stammered, a hint of fear in my voice.
Pengamu didn't answer, just nodded silently.
His face was pale, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
His demeanor made me shudder, as if there was some kind of terrifying power hidden in the black pool.
I can't help but recall the legend about the Black Water Pool, which is said to be a cursed place, and once anyone steps into it, they will be haunted by the evil spirits at the bottom of the lake, and there is no escape.
I shuddered, and the fear in my heart grew stronger.
The black pools of the lake seem to hide some unspeakable power, which makes me deeply uneasy.
On the sand by the lake, a faint wind wafted and swept up a silent and gloomy atmosphere.
I looked at Pengamu in front of me, his clenched fists as if fending off the threat of the Blackpool, his lips trembling slightly, revealing the uneasiness and fear in his heart.
"What are we going to do?" I asked in a trembling voice, my eyes filled with uneasiness and panic.
Peng Jiamu slowly turned his head and looked at me, a determined glint flashing in his eyes: "If we want to find the gate of time and space and return to the original world, we must pass through the Black Water Pool. No matter how difficult it may be, we must not back down. ”
His voice was firm and resolute, as if he was fighting against the evil spirits that lurked in the blackwater pool.
I nodded silently, and despite the fear in my heart, I understood that running away was not the answer.
We must face the Blackwater Pool and find our way to the Gate of Time and Space.
I turned my head and looked out over the surface of the Black Pool, feeling the eerie and unsettling glow.
The light on the surface of the lake flickered, as if to mock our courage and determination.
On the rocks by the lake, those strange plants also come into view.
Their branches are dry and fragile, as if they are struggling in endless despair.
Their roots are firmly rooted in the rocks, as if they are looking for a glimmer of life, but they never find them.
I approached a plant and gently touched its leaves, only to feel a chill in my fingers.
This strange aura permeates the surroundings, as if to warn us not to step into the realm of the Black Water Pool.
Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew, and the surface of the lake rippled slightly, breaking its usual calm.
There was a low murmur in the lake, as if to tell us something.
"Did you hear that?" I asked in a whisper, my mind full of doubts.
Pengamu stared at the lake, and the expression on his face became solemn: "That's the evil spirits in the black pool, they have been waiting for the arrival of their prey. We must be careful not to get entangled in them. ”
My heart trembled, and I understood Pengamu's warning.
Blackwater Pool is a dangerous place and we can't afford to take it lightly.
We continued along the edge of the lake, the sound of footsteps echoing in the desolate environment.
The rustling sound of the dry branches and leaves of the grass and trees seems to tell the misery and despair of the land.
Suddenly, a blinding light flashed, and I jerked my head up.
In the far reaches of the lake, a faint ray of light shines through the surface of the Black Pool, emitting an eerie glow of hope.
We walked slowly along the edge of the lake, and the smell of the black water pool became more and more intense, as if countless pairs of eyes were staring at us in the dark.
A heavy silence hung over us, broken only by Pengamu's determined steps.
Suddenly, a chill hit me, and I felt as if I heard a faint whisper.
I stopped and looked around, and saw a few dry grasses shivering in the breeze, as if to convey some kind of warning.
"Be careful!" I reminded in a low voice.
Pengamu looked around warily, his eyes flashing with alertness.
Suddenly, a dark shadow burst out of the water and struck us.
I nervously took a few steps back, and Pengamu quickly dodged away, and the shadow fell into the air.
I looked in the direction of the shadow, and saw a misshapen claw suspended in the air, exuding an eerie aura.
"What's that?" I asked, trembling.
Pengamu's brows tightened, and he took a deep breath: "That's the evil spirits in the Black Water Pool, they have no body, and they can only attack us with the help of the power of the Black Water Pool. We have to be careful, they are everywhere. ”
I panicked, but I knew that now was not the time to back down.
I clenched the weapon in my hand and looked around warily.
The surface of the lake suddenly surged, and countless dark figures poured out from the bottom of the lake, forming twisted and terrifying faces, and let out a sharp roar.
"Don't be afraid!" Pengamu cried out, "They are just illusions of evil spirits and cannot really harm us. Concentrate your attention and find your way to the gateway to space. ”
I struggled to resist the fear in my heart, and focused on finding the faint light.
On the surface of the lake, the light becomes brighter, as if beckoning to us.
We wander through visions of evil spirits, sometimes swallowed by distorted images, sometimes bewildered by eerie roars.
But we persevered, undeterred by the threat of the Blackwater Pool.
Finally, we came to the location of the light.
An open portal appeared in front of my eyes, leading to the unknown.
There is a fresh breath around the portal, as if the heaven and earth on the other side are beckoning to us.
I turned to Pengamu, a tired but determined smile: "We made it!" ”
However, as I smiled at Pengamu, suddenly his face changed. Before we were about to enter the portal, he jerked me and tried to push me out of the door to keep me from entering.
However, he seems to ignore the gap between me and him.
I'm a guy who has a genetic lock, and he's just an ordinary person.
So, his thrust couldn't knock me back at all, and I almost fell myself.
I stared at Pengamu indifferently, showed a strange smile, and said coldly, "Pengamu, you really surprised me. ”
Pengamu looked at me angrily, his eyes full of resentment and unwillingness.
He didn't expect me to have such a great power that he couldn't compete with.
He gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, and pounced on me again with a determined look.
I can't help but feel a hint of irony that this Pengamu, who once regarded himself as a hero, is now a wretched worm at my feet.
I raised my weapon mercilessly, watching his move coldly, waiting for his decision.
