Crossing to Douqi Continent and walking sideways

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er stood in front of the mysterious crystal ball, enveloped by the light it emitted. The light contained an indescribable powerful force that constantly impacted their bodies and minds.

Xiao Muchen felt that every meridian in his body was filled with this power, and his fighting spirit was surging wildly, as if it was about to burst out of his body. He clenched his teeth and tried hard to control this violent power. Veins on his forehead bulged and sweat fell like rain.

"Wan'er, you must stay calm!" Xiao Muchen said with difficulty.

Lin Wan'er was also feeling uncomfortable, her magic power was surging in her body, causing her body to tremble slightly. But she still nodded firmly, trying to concentrate and try to guide and tame this mysterious power.

They closed their eyes and tried to feel the rhythm and pattern of this power. Xiao Muchen gradually discovered that although this power was strong, it was not uncontrollable. He began to slowly adjust his breathing, so that his breathing matched the fluctuations of power. Every time he inhaled, he tried his best to draw the power into his Dantian, and every time he exhaled, he slowly released the power to his limbs.

Lin Wan'er used the magic knowledge she had learned to construct magic runes in her mind, trying to incorporate this power into the rune framework. Her mind was highly concentrated, and beads of sweat kept rolling down her forehead, soaking her clothes.

As time passed, Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er both entered a state of ecstasy. A faint glow gradually formed around their bodies, which became stronger as they gained control of their power.

Xiao Muchen felt that his fighting spirit was constantly condensing and sublimating, and the already very powerful fighting spirit became even purer and sharper. His meridians were constantly widened under the impact of the power, and the strength of his body was also greatly improved.

Lin Wan'er's magic power also underwent a qualitative change. Originally, although her magic was exquisite, it was always lacking in power. But now, she could clearly feel that every spell she cast contained unprecedented powerful force.

However, just when they were gradually mastering this power, an accident happened.

The power in the crystal ball suddenly became violent and was no longer under their control. A powerful impact directly knocked Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er out and hit the wall heavily.

"Puff!" Xiao Muchen spat out a mouthful of blood and his face turned pale in an instant.

Lin Wan'er's body also trembled, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

"What's going on?" Lin Wan'er exclaimed.

Xiao Muchen endured the pain and looked at the crystal ball firmly: "No matter what, we can't give up!"

They stood up again and walked towards the crystal ball. The light of the crystal ball flickered, as if resisting their approach.

Xiao Muchen took a deep breath, mobilized the fighting spirit in his body again, gathered it in his palm, and then slowly stretched it towards the crystal ball. When his palm touched the crystal ball, a strong recoil force came again, but he gritted his teeth and held on tightly.

Seeing this, Lin Wan'er also used her own magical powers to fight against the recoil force together with Xiao Muchen.

With their joint efforts, the resistance of the crystal ball gradually weakened, and the light became stable.

"Now!" Xiao Muchen shouted, and injected all the fighting spirit in his body into the crystal ball with all his strength.

Lin Wan'er also increased her mana output.

Finally, the power in the crystal ball no longer resisted and began to slowly flow into their bodies.

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er felt an unprecedented sense of fulfillment, and their strength was greatly improved at this moment.

Xiao Muchen opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He threw a punch casually, and suddenly there was a burst of explosion in the air.

Lin Wan'er raised her hand gently, and a brilliant magical light bloomed at her fingertips, its power several times stronger than before.

"Great, we succeeded!" Lin Wan'er said excitedly.

Xiao Muchen also showed a gratified smile on his face: "But this is just the beginning, we still need to continue to hone and master this new power."

Just as they were immersed in joy, a low roar suddenly came from the ruins.

"Oh no, this ruins may collapse!" Xiao Muchen's face changed.

The two did not dare to delay and quickly ran towards the exit of the ruins.

Along the way, walls continued to collapse and rocks fell. Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er used their newly acquired powerful strength to open up a passage in the ruins.

"Hurry!" Xiao Muchen pulled Lin Wan'er and his figure was as fast as lightning.

Finally, they rushed out before the ruins collapsed completely.

Standing outside the ruins, Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er were breathing heavily, looking at the ruins behind them that had turned into ruins, with a mixture of emotions in their hearts.

"This trip was really thrilling." Lin Wan'er said.

Xiao Muchen nodded: "But we have also gained a lot. Next, we must make good use of this power to deal with the upcoming challenges."

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly passed across the sky.

Xiao Muchen looked up alertly: "Who is it?"

The shadow disappeared in an instant, leaving only a sinister laugh echoing in the air.

"It seems that trouble has come." Xiao Muchen frowned.

Lin Wan'er held Xiao Muchen's hand tightly: "No matter what, we will face it together."

Xiao Muchen smiled slightly: "Well, let's go."

The two walked side by side, and their figures gradually disappeared in the distance.

What they didn't know was that the shadow was a spy sent by the Dark Alliance. The Dark Alliance learned that Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er had obtained mysterious powers and had begun to plan a new conspiracy.

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er found a quiet place and prepared to consolidate their strength.

Xiao Muchen sat cross-legged on the ground and began to practice. He circulated the Dou Qi in his body according to the new running route. With each cycle, the Dou Qi became more condensed and powerful.

Lin Wan'er was studying new spells on the side. She kept trying to combine and release the magic power in different ways, exploring various possible changes.

After several days of practice, Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er both had a deeper understanding and mastery of their new powers.

"Senior Brother Xiao, I feel like I can cast even more powerful spells now." Lin Wan'er said.

Xiao Muchen stood up and stretched his muscles: "Me too, I feel like my strength has made a qualitative leap."

At this moment, a burst of shouting and killing suddenly came from the distance.

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er looked at each other and immediately ran towards the direction of the sound.

I saw a group of people in black besieging a village. The villagers were fleeing in all directions, and the sounds of crying and shouting were continuous.

"Stop!" Xiao Muchen shouted.

The man in black turned around and saw Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"It's them!" said one of the men in black.

"What are you afraid of? Let's go together!" another man in black shouted.

The men in black rushed towards Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er.

Xiao Muchen snorted coldly, swung the Star Sword in his hand, and a powerful sword energy instantly killed several men in black.

Lin Wan'er also cast a spell, and with a flash of light, the men in black fell one after another.

Soon, all the men in black were wiped out.

The villagers gathered around and expressed their gratitude to Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er.

"Thank you two heroes for saving my life!" said an old man.

Xiao Muchen waved his hand: "You're welcome. Who are these people?"

The old man sighed and said, "They are a group of bandits from nearby who often harass our village. This time, we are grateful to you two, otherwise we would have suffered."

Xiao Muchen frowned: "Why are there so many bandits in this area?"

The old man said, "I don't know what happened recently, but this area has suddenly become uneasy, with all kinds of bad guys appearing all the time."

A trace of doubt arose in Xiao Muchen's heart, and he felt that there seemed to be some conspiracy behind this.

"Wan'er, we have to be careful." Xiao Muchen said.

Lin Wan'er nodded: "Well, I think this may be related to the Dark Alliance."

Xiao Muchen and Lin Wan'er said goodbye to the villagers and continued on their way. Along the way, they discovered more and more abnormal situations. Many towns were in panic and public security was in chaos.

"What is going on?" Lin Wan'er asked.

Xiao Muchen pondered for a moment and said, "I think the Dark Alliance may be secretly planning something big to disrupt the order of this continent."

"Then what should we do?" Lin Wan'er asked.

Xiao Muchen's eyes were firm: "We must find out their conspiracy as soon as possible and stop them!"

The two quickened their pace and headed towards the Dark Alliance's lair.
