I swept the Phoenix with the Onmyoji Shikigami

In this forest mercilessly shrouded by the eternal night, everything is covered with a thick layer of haze.

The towering ancient trees seemed like giant dark towers, and their twisted branches were like the tentacles of the devil, stretching towards the inky black sky, as if whispering ancient curses.

The occasional ray of pale moonlight that filtered through the leaves was quickly swallowed up by the thick fog and turned into nothingness, making the entire forest look even more gloomy and terrifying.

Under his feet, dead branches and leaves formed a thick black carpet. Every step he took was accompanied by a rustling sound, like an ancient beast whispering in the darkness. Every step he took seemed to be stepping on a rotten heart. The air was filled with a suffocating smell of decay, mixed with the stench of the beast, stimulating every sense of Xinghan.

Xinghan's heartbeat was as rapid as a war drum in the darkness. He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white from the exertion.

He tried to keep himself calm, but the fear in his heart surged like a tide, almost drowning him. And deep in the dark forest, the giant baby was fighting fiercely with a group of ferocious beasts.

Although the baby giant is small in size, his eyes are extremely firm, like a bright star shining in the darkness.

He waved his tender but powerful little fists and rushed towards the huge and ferocious beasts again and again.

Every charge seemed to be filled with unstoppable determination and courage. He shouted loudly while fighting:

"Xingxing, did you see that? These guys want to bully me, but I won't let them succeed! I will use my fists to beat them away one by one! I will use my courage to protect our home!"

Xinghan realized that while the giant beast was fighting, it was also talking to that "Xingxing". He didn't know why Xingxing didn't participate in this battle, but Xinghan realized that the giant beast was communicating with only one person, that mysterious friend, a mysterious immortal - Xingxing.

Every time the giant baby dodged, he was extremely agile. His figure in the dark was like that of a nimble cat, graceful and fast.

His body seemed to be covered with a faint glow, which was the starlight that Xinghan was familiar with.

Although the starlight was faint, it was extremely tenacious. It illuminated the path of the baby giant beast and also illuminated Xinghan's heart.

As the battle intensified, the scars on the giant baby's body gradually increased.

His clothes were torn, as if he had been attacked by a ferocious beast. As the clothes were torn, his tender white and bloody skin was revealed to everyone, which was shocking.

The skin that was originally as delicate as silk was now covered with hideous scars, and blood oozed from it, dyeing the surrounding fabric deep red.

Every wound seemed to tell of a thrilling battle, making people imagine what kind of cruel experience he had gone through.

His face was covered in blood and dirt, but this made his eyes stand out even more. It was an indomitable light.

His hair was disheveled and covered in dirt and dust, which mixed with the blood on his face to create a miserable and tough picture.

However, it is this outward appearance that further highlights his inner strength and his spirit of never giving up.

This is the resistance from the teenager, the roar from the teenager.

There was a firm determination in his eyes, as if telling the world:

No matter how many difficulties and setbacks he encounters, he will never give in.

He never backed down. Every time he fell, he stood up quickly, and every time he was injured, he became more determined.

The darkness gradually dissipated due to the bloody storm, revealing a "miniature" giant beast baby with the body shape of an ordinary human being like a child.

Xinghan didn't find it strange and didn't understand why the giant beast would appear in such an image in this illusion.

He had an idea in his mind and was just waiting for the behemoth to give him an answer later.

The young beast looked like a cute baby, with a lovely face but decisive actions, and kept shouting:

"Xingxing, you have to believe me!"

"Xingxing, look, I'm so awesome!"

"Xingxing, look, have I become stronger?"

"Star, you said that even in the darkness, I will use all my strength to protect our hope until the light comes again."

Every time the giant baby was hit by the ferocious beast, he would grimace in pain, but he never backed down.

He shouted:

"It hurts, Star!"

"Xingxing, when I think of your singing, the pain goes away..."

"I won't give up. I will keep fighting until you come back to me!"

"You said that no matter what difficulties I encounter, you will be by my side."

"Xingxing, I can't let you down!"

The cries of the baby behemoth echoed in the forest like a tragic war song.

Although his voice was immature, it was full of determination and courage.

His every move and every expression were deeply imprinted in Xinghan's heart.

This image seemed familiar to Xinghan. He was suspicious, "Damn it, why do I always have such strange feelings? It's like a sentimental woman. It's annoying..."

Xinghan rejected all emotions in his heart regarding the giant baby beast, deeply feeling that it was just the effect of an illusion.

Xinghan stood at the edge of the forest, as if he could feel every breath and heartbeat of the giant baby.

He seemed to see the scars on the baby giant beast's body and feel the pain and struggle every time he was injured.

He seemed to hear the cry of the baby giant beast. The voice was as hot as a raging fire, igniting a fire of hope in his heart.

All of this resonated with him, and made him more certain that he must be controlled by hallucinations.

In the cries of the baby behemoth, Xinghan seemed to be able to feel the childish bravery and determination, as if he was struggling himself.

He seemed to see the light flickering in the giant baby's eyes, which was a deep attachment and dependence on the stars, as if he was the star himself.

He seemed to also feel the baby giant's longing and anticipation for the stars. That emotion was like the bright starlight, passing through the darkness and coming right in front of Xinghan.

Xinghan could feel the pressure and cruelty of the battle, as if he was also fighting a ferocious beast in the darkness.

His heartbeat was synchronized with the cries of the baby giant beast, and tenacity and courage were quietly growing in his heart.

He seemed to be fighting side by side with the giant baby, facing those ferocious enemies together.

Their hearts were closely connected at this moment, as if they had become the closest comrades-in-arms.

Xinghan guessed that the stars gave the beast positive energy, such as allowing it to overcome all difficulties. No matter what difficulties and challenges it encountered, it would continue to move forward with courage and tenacity, pursuing its own starlight...

As he thought about this, Xinghan realized that the scene before him had changed quietly and silently...
