Chapter 534
Only Wu Tianzhen and Huo Xiuxiu, who also looked shaken, were beside him.
Ding Yudie was lying not far away, her face still pale, but her breathing was steady, as if she had just fallen into a deep sleep.
"Hallucination..."
Xie Yuchen's voice trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly. He propped himself up, pressing his fingers hard against his temples, his face pale.
"Everything that just happened... was an illusion!"
Those tentacles... that piercing... Ding Yudie's 'betrayal'... it was all fake!
It was the final and most vicious mental attack from the will of that ancient god!
It wants to completely crush us on a spiritual level, dismantle Zhang Hao's power to maintain the passage, and drive us to collapse in despair and infighting!
"phantom?!"
Huo Xiuxiu's voice suddenly rose, filled with lingering fear and disbelief:
"But...but that feeling was too real!"
It hurts so much!
Zhang Hao, he…”
She suddenly looked in Zhang Hao's direction, her voice choked.
Zhang Hao remained standing, not far in front of the group.
His clothes were completely intact; there wasn't even a tear, let alone a penetrating wound.
His face was slightly pale, his forehead was covered with a fine layer of sweat, and his chest rose and fell slightly with each deep breath. Clearly, forcibly unleashing his Bloodline True Flame to break the terrifying illusion that covered everyone had taken a toll on his spirit.
But those golden-red eyes were brighter and sharper than ever before, like a forged divine weapon, shining brightly in the thick darkness, with a trace of scorching golden embers still remaining deep within.
He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, his voice steady and clear, carrying an absolute confidence born from seeing through illusion:
"It was the ancient gods who were interfering."
Trying to keep us here using such despicable means?
wishful thinking."
He glanced at everyone, confirming that aside from their emotional distress, they were all physically unharmed.
"The passage is complete; this place is the other shore."
"The passage...is the passage still there?"
Wu Tianzhen asked nervously, his voice unusually clear in the deathly silence. He looked around, but could see nothing but endless darkness.
Zhang Hao did not answer, but simply raised his hand and lightly traced a line in the air with his fingertips.
laugh!
A tiny, golden-red spark shot from his fingertip, like a match lit in the darkness.
The fire was faint, yet it carried a majestic and righteous intent that dispelled all gloom, instantly illuminating a small area around it.
Under the faint light, not far behind them, an indescribably huge shadow stood silently in the absolute darkness, like the backbone supporting the heavens and the earth!
It was not entirely dark. Near the bottom, an extremely faint, dim, eerie green light, like the cold gaze of a sleeping behemoth, outlined its massive and heavy silhouette.
It was a bronze-like texture that was neither gold nor stone, as if time itself had been frozen. Its surface was covered with unrecognizable, huge, and twisted grooves and protrusions, like some kind of undecipherable giant script, or like scars left by the erosion of time and some great force.
An indescribable, heavy, and ancient aura, like an invisible tide, spread from this huge bronze shadow, pressing heavily on everyone's heart.
It simply stood there quietly, as if suppressing eternity of time and space, separating the boundary between life and death.
"This...what is this?"
The fat man swallowed hard, his voice dry and trembling with a hint of awe:
"Where...where are we?"
"The end of the passage."
Zhang Hao's voice carried a sense of certainty, as if the dust had settled:
"Or rather, it is another 'starting point'."
He strode forward, his steps steady, toward the enormous shadow that emitted a faint, eerie green light.
In the dim light, his golden-red eyes shone like two bright lamps.
Everyone took a deep breath, suppressing the shock and lingering fear in their hearts, and rose to follow. The sound of footsteps echoed in the deathly silence, adding to the inexplicable tension.
As the distance closed, the enormous shadow, illuminated by the eerie green light, gradually revealed more unsettling details.
It was indeed an unimaginably huge bronze wall, or rather, a towering monument!
The surface of the monument is not completely flat; it is covered with countless huge and deep engravings. These engravings are not decorations, but rather resemble primitive and barbaric writing or incantations. Each stroke carries a powerful sense of force, as if splitting mountains and shattering rocks, and the turns of the strokes are filled with an indescribable, inhuman ferocity.
The eerie green light seeped out extremely faintly from the depths of these massive engravings, like solidified will-o'-the-wisps.
When everyone finally reached the foot of the giant monument and looked up, a strong feeling of being as insignificant as dust instantly overwhelmed them.
The colossal monument stretched upwards, completely disappearing into the endless darkness above, its top nowhere in sight.
Not far above their line of sight, several enormous, unimaginable engravings that occupied the massive surface of the monument were clearly visible under the faint green light!
The characters were distorted and unrestrained, carrying a cold indifference and wild majesty that looked down on all living beings. Each stroke seemed to have been cleaved out by a giant axe and deeply embedded in the ancient bronze.
Thirty-three non-human realms!
Five enormous ancient characters, like five cold bolts of lightning, struck the depths of everyone's consciousness!
