After opening his eyes, the first thing Ye Xiao did was look around. Only when he found no trace of berserk Chaos Energy did he look at his right chest. He removed the clothes and surprisingly saw a tattoo of a bat.
Although it was a tattoo, the bat seemed too much alive. Moreover, this bat... those patterns on its wings, and those eyes... Ye Xiao had seen them once before.
Ye Xiao suddenly remembered the time when Yu Rong sent him to a different world to complete a test. At that time, he had to deal with a Divine Inscription Master.
That Divine Inscription Master had imprisoned a bat king and was planning to do something with that bat king, however, Ye Xiao freed the bat king.
Before the Bat King and his millions of bats flew in the runic formation and disappeared, the bat king's eyes glowed with scarlet light and it shot red beams of light that disappeared inside his right chest.
When that happened, Ye Xiao did not think much, but now that it somehow helped him with the chaotic Chaos Energy, Ye Xiao understood that this bat tattoo is, by no means, a simple tattoo. There is more to it than what seems on the surface.
Of course, because he had already fallen unconscious, he has no idea what the tattoo did with chaos energy storming around him.
Ye Xiao simply stood up and checked his body. Not finding any problem, he started the journey once again.
Ye Xiao continued his cautious journey through the black and white desert with heightened senses. He was acutely aware of the potential dangers that lurked in this unfamiliar realm, where the landscape held countless mysteries. The black and white expanse seemed to hold an array of unknown perils, demanding his constant vigilance.
As three days passed without incident, Ye Xiao allowed himself a moment of relief. Perhaps the worst was behind him, or that was how he thought.
However, fate had other plans.
On this day, an unsettling phenomenon unfolded before his eyes once again. The ground beneath his feet began to show signs of decay.
Ye Xiao felt his heart race as the very reality around him seemed to start crumbling and disintegrating. Panic threatened to take hold of his heart, but he forced himself to stay composed.
Very soon, the once-solid ground started giving way to small cracks, revealing an ominous emptiness below.
He understood the gravity of the situation. The decaying world posed a dire threat to him, and he needed to act swiftly.
Drawing upon his senses and instincts, Ye Xiao carefully calculated his steps, avoiding the weakened areas of the ground. Each movement was deliberate, and he kept his focus on the ever-changing terrain.
Yet, despite his caution, Ye Xiao found himself facing a challenge. A section of ground ahead disintegrated suddenly, leaving him with limited options.
Fortunately, he acted immediately. He leaped and teleported to a distance with a pounding heart. If he did not have the teleportation ability, even if he could, he would have barely managed to land on a stable patch of ground.
Looking back, he saw the decayed section crumbled further, disappearing into nothingness.
Ye Xiao's pulse quickened, realizing the gravity of his predicament. He was in a race against time, navigating through the decaying world while maintaining his balance. The emptiness below seemed to taunt him, it was like a constant reminder of the perilous situation he has fallen into.
With extreme alertness in his mind and heart, Ye Xiao continued to move forward. He focused his energy on maintaining his equilibrium. The decaying world tested his every skill, pushing him to his limits.
After what felt like an eternity, Ye Xiao's efforts paid off. He reached a relatively stable area, the threat of a decaying world gradually fading behind him.
His heart was still racing, but at least it allowed him a moment of relief. He had successfully overcome another unexpected danger. Although this time, the danger seemed to have been dealt with easily, in reality, it was really too dangerous for Ye Xiao.
What helped him deal with this dangerous situation the most was his teleportation ability. Whenever he saw the land beneath his feet decaying, he would immediately teleport to a safe place.
This allowed his journey through this danger to be much smoother than the one before.
As he continued his journey through the black and white desert, Ye Xiao knew that he couldn't let his guard down. This unknown vast world held untold challenges, and each one of them is dangerous. He has to be extremely careful if he wants to leave this place alive.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Xiao once again continued his journey.
.....
On the other hand, at a certain part of the black and white desert, Han Xiang could be seen walking with heavy steps.
As Han Xiang trudged through the seemingly endless expanse of the black and white desert, his weary form spoke volumes of his exhaustion. Each step he took was a struggle. His pale complexion was a stark contrast against the black and white surroundings. His determination seemed to be the only thing propelling him forward. Each step he took seemed to be poured with every ounce of his strength.
The desert stretched on, seemingly without end, and Han Xiang's energy waned with every passing moment. His body moved as if on auto-pilot, driven by his spirit and unyielding will to continue despite the odds. His breaths came ragged and labored.
Then, a glimmer of hope appeared on the horizon. Han Xiang's fatigued eyes widened as they fell upon a breathtaking sight. He saw a lake of vibrant color in the midst of the colorless world. The contrast was startling, and for a moment, Han Xiang questioned if his weary mind was playing tricks on him.
"Is this real?"
"Or am I dreaming?"
"I must be hallucinating. Looks like my exhaustion has taken the best of me!"
Han Xiang was doubtful, but he still decided to take a look.
As he drew nearer, the reality of the lake became undeniable.
He could see crystal-clear waters glistening like precious gems, reflecting hues of blue that sparkled like a cloudless sky. Beneath the water's surface, pale golden sands stretched like a hidden treasure, and delicate aquatic plants swayed gently, adding a touch of life to the serene scene. Fish of various colors darted playfully through the water, creating ripples of movement and a sense of vitality.
For a brief moment, Han Xiang's exhaustion seemed to fade into the background. He marveled at the unexpected oasis. Its vibrant beauty was a stark contrast to the desolation he had grown accustomed to in the past few years. He had spent one year crossing the forest, and in this black and white desert, he actually wasted three whole years.
And finally, after whole three years spent in this world without colors, he was finally seeing something that soothed his heart and made him feel the touch of reality.
In this shadeless world, he finally saw something vibrant.
The colors seemed to breathe life into his weary bones, rekindling a spark of energy within him.
With renewed energy, Han Xiang approached the edge of the lake. He knelt down and dipped his hand into the bluish water, feeling its coolness against his skin. It was as if the lake held a world of its own like a sanctuary of color amidst the monotony.
As he gazed into the depths of the lake, Han Xiang's tired eyes held a glimmer of wonder. The discovery of this colorful oasis was a reminder that even in the bleakest of circumstances, beauty and vibrancy could still exist.
And so, Han Xiang lingered by the colorful lake with a moment of tranquility after a lot of challenges that he had faced along the way in these three years.
Lost in the mesmerizing beauty of the colorful oasis, Han Xiang's heart suddenly began to race, jolting him from his reverie.
Instinct kicked in, and without a second thought, he swiftly retreated from his spot by the lake. His actions were swift and decisive, his senses alert to the imminent danger.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm As Han Xiang moved away, the ground he had occupied mere moments ago erupted with a sudden and vicious force. Emerging from beneath the surface was a colossal worm. This worm's body was covered in sharp, menacing scales.
This creature's sudden appearance sent a shiver down Han Xiang's spine, a stark reminder of the perilous world he navigated.
The scaled worm's massive form lunged forward, its gaping maw lined with rows of sharp teeth. Its hunger for prey was evident and had Han Xiang lingered for even a moment longer on his spot, he would have found himself ensnared in the clutches of the monstrous creature.
With a mixture of relief and adrenaline, Han Xiang watched as the scaled worm's attack missed its mark. His heart continued to race. The worm's near miss was a reminder of the ever-present danger that lurked in the uncharted territory.
