Chapter 488: The Prologue Begins
The moment the fist collided with the meteorite, a powerful shock wave spread out in all directions.
The rubble on the ruins was rolled up and filled with dust, as if the whole world was shaken by this force.
I felt a sense of oppression, as if there were countless mocking voices echoing in my ears.
This atmosphere of irony made me feel a chill rise in my heart, as if the whole world was laughing at me.
The meteorite shattered into countless pieces under my fist and scattered on the ground.
The light vanished completely, leaving only a dark wreckage.
I exhaled, and the pressure in my heart gradually released, and I felt relieved.
However, I can feel that the power of the meteorite has not completely dissipated, it seems to hide a greater power, waiting for the time to come.
I looked at the fragments in my hand, and a hint of determination flashed in my eyes.
When my eyes refocused, I found myself in a familiar village.
The cemetery and ruins are gone, replaced by a familiar and unsettling sight.
Located on the edge of the village, the Black Pools are as black as a pond of blood congealing.
The water is still without a trace of waves, as if it hides endless secrets.
A dense mist rises from the pool and permeates the entire village, giving a sense of oppression.
Standing in the middle of the village, the Ghost Temple is an ancient building with crumbling stone walls covered in moss and cobwebs.
The temple doors are carved with strange runes, revealing a mysterious power.
The air inside the temple was unusually heavy, as if there were countless ghosts hovering in it.
The old mother tree towers into the sky, she is the guardian of the village, and the uneven lines on the trunk of the tree are like ancient faces.
Covered with thick moss, it seems to record the passage of countless years. The dense and messy foliage at the top of the tree creates a dark shade that feels eerie.
And around the old tree's mother, countless low houses are scattered.
These small houses are made of stone and wood, and the stones on the walls are rough and uneven, revealing the signs of time.
The sheer curtains on the windows were crumbling, and hardly any light was letting through, making the room appear dark and cold.
There is an eerie atmosphere in the village that makes people shudder.
It was as if time had stood still here, and there was an oppressive silence in the air, as if the entire village had been trapped in eternal darkness.
I stepped into it cautiously, each step accompanied by a rustling sound that evoked echoes of the village.
Gradually, I began to perceive faint whispers coming from these small houses, as if countless mocking voices echoed in my ears.
I frowned, trying to make out the contents, but the voices were distorted and unrecognizable like ghosts.
I grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground, felt its texture and coolness, and confirmed that it was real.
Everything I had experienced in the past seemed like a dream, and I never seemed to leave this small mountain village.
However, I knew that those experiences were real, and that the line between reality and dreams was blurred at this moment.
I cautiously walked through the streets, but there was no one in the village.
The houses collapsed and the walls were in tatters, as if they had been abandoned for many years.
Each house exudes an air of decay, and the cobwebs in the corners of the walls are like memories of time, showing the silence and silence of the village in front of you.
I went to the small courtyard where I lived, however, I was surprised to find that it was a huge dirt pit.
The pit was bottomless, filled with garbage and decaying debris that emitted a disgusting stench.
Cobwebs spread from the edge of the pit like eerie silk threads, shimmering in the sunlight.
I couldn't help but take a step back, a feeling of unease welling up in my heart.
This dirt pit is not just an abandoned crater, but a black hole that exudes an evil aura.
I tried to look down, but the darkness swallowed my vision, preventing me from seeing the bottom.
Fear and curiosity mingled in my heart, and I decided to explore this mysterious dirt pit.
As I approached slowly, the pieces of garbage creaking as if to warn me not to move forward. However, the impulse within me drove me on.
When I stepped into the pit, I felt suffocated by an icy breath.
The edge of the pit is covered with rotting food scraps, and the bottom of the pit is littered with all kinds of garbage and waste.
Withered plants, broken furniture, tattered clothes intertwine to form an absurd picture.
And between the crevices of this garbage, layers of cobwebs are intertwined into a dense web-like structure with a chilling stench.
Countless spider silks swirled over the webs, and they were silent mockers, quietly observing my every movement.
A feeling of unease welled up in my heart, and a chill gradually spread. I tried to lift my feet, but it felt as if I was being pulled by an invisible force that had sunk me deep into this strange dirt pit.
I looked around and saw that the edges of the pit were covered with deep cracks, as if they had been torn apart by some great force.
Dirty droplets of water flowed from the cracks, giving off a rotten smell.
This pit is no longer an ordinary crater, it appears to be a portal to another dimension.
I tried to remove a broken plank to make the edge of the hole more visible.
At that moment, a strong stench hit the nostrils, as if unleashing all the power of darkness.
I couldn't help but cover my nose and try to endure the suffocating smell.
Zhao Rui, congratulations, you did it. A familiar voice came, and I turned my head, and sure enough, I saw Gong Yiyu.
I looked at her in a daze, my heart filled with sadness and sadness.
I already have a hunch about it all.
The chill gradually spread, and my uneasiness grew stronger.
I heard my voice tremble slightly: "You're doing all this to get me to destroy the meteorite?" You're behind it, aren't you? ”
I looked around and felt an unspeakable pain welling up in my heart.
Gong's eyes revealed a deep irony, which made me feel terrified.
I hope in my heart that Miyayi will deny my speculation, and maybe I will believe her unconditionally.
But she nodded slightly, breaking my last hope: "Zhao Rui, you are really smart. Unfortunately, you're only half right......"
Before she could finish her words, Zhang Geng, Bai Luoxin, Gan Qi, Lin Mingzhen, and Li Gang slowly walked out of the shadows, and they each stood aside and confronted each other silently.
Their expressions were grim and cold, as if driven by darkness.
I suddenly laughed, and there was a creepy malice in my laughter: "Yes, the meteorite is destroyed, the biggest threat to this world does not exist, and then, it is time to destroy me, and use my body as a passage between the yin and yang worlds." I laughed self-deprecatingly, but I was determined.
