Taking the opportunity of traveling through books

A New Spiritual Path to Seeking Mysterious Skills

"I seem to... have grasped something." I murmured to myself. The wise man's deep gaze made me feel like an open book, with all my secrets exposed.

It felt strange and unsettling.

Hao Yang's warm and dry big hands held mine tightly, giving me a little strength.

After the wise man left, I couldn't wait to explore this new power.

At first, I was full of expectations, thinking that I could control it as easily as I could control the system.

However, I was wrong.

This power is obscure and incomprehensible, like a tangled silk thread, tightly wrapping around my consciousness.

The harder I pushed, the tighter it got, almost suffocating me.

Every attempt is like being in a dark maze, unable to find the exit or see the direction.

The frustration came over me like a tide, almost drowning me.

"Could it be... that I have no control over it at all?" I sat dejectedly on the stone bench, lowering my head helplessly.

Hao Yang was by my side, accompanying me silently. He knew that what I needed now was quietness, not comfort.

Suddenly, the scene of my previous battle with the black-robed leader flashed through my mind.

His strange moves, powerful strength...

and many more!

The way he absorbs energy...

And the way this new power flows...

They are so similar!

I raised my head suddenly, and a light flashed in my eyes.

Is it...

Is this the key?

I immediately closed my eyes and recalled every detail of the battle, the movements of the black-robed leader, the flow of energy, and even the ferocious expression on his face.

I tried to mimic his movements, guiding the new energy within me to follow the same trajectory.

At first, there were still many obstacles, but this time, I felt different.

I seemed to see a ray of light, guiding me in the direction of progress in the darkness.

"I feel it..." I opened my eyes excitedly and looked at Hao Yang, "I feel it!" A powerful force surged in my body, stronger than ever before!

I even felt the air around me tremble slightly because of this force.

"Yao'er..." Hao Yang looked at me happily and was about to speak when he was interrupted by the arrival of Elder Wei.

"Yao'er," Elder Wei's face was solemn, "about your power..." He paused, his eyes swept over Hao Yang beside me, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Elder, I know you are worried about me." I took a deep breath, trying to calm my excitement and the urge deep in my heart to release this power immediately.

"But this is my power, and I must learn to control it."

Elder Wei frowned even more tightly. He seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by me.

"Elder, do you still remember the black-robed leader? His power..." I briefly told Elder Wei about my discovery and showed him the preliminary results.

A faint energy danced at my fingertips, flickering like a firefly.

A hint of surprise flashed in Elder Wei's eyes. He reached out to the ball of energy, feeling the powerful force contained in it.

After a moment, he withdrew his hand, his expression still solemn.

"Yao'er, this power is very dangerous. You must be careful."

"I know." I nodded firmly. Hao Yang's hand was still holding mine tightly. His eyes told me that no matter what decision I made, he would support me.

This made me more determined in my thinking.

Elder Wei sighed and said, "The family meeting is about to be held. We need to make a long-term plan regarding your strength." He looked at me deeply and turned away.

I looked at Elder Wei's departing back and felt a little uneasy.

The worries of my family and the dissuasion of the elders are like a mountain pressing on my heart.

But I can't retreat. For myself, for Hao Yang, and for all the people I love, I must become stronger!

"Yao'er, don't worry," Hao Yang's voice was gentle and firm, "I believe you." His words were like a warm current, flowing through my heart, dispelling all the anxiety and fear.

I turned around and gave him a bright smile.

"Yeah!" I nodded vigorously, my eyes full of confidence.

"Let's try it!" I took Hao Yang's hand and walked towards the back mountain.

There is a forbidden area there, which is the place where my family has practiced for generations, and it is also the best place for me to explore new powers.

When we reached the entrance to the forbidden area, the guards stopped us.

"Miss, no one is allowed to enter without the elders' permission."

I smiled slightly and said, "Go tell the elders that I need to practice in seclusion and no one is allowed to disturb me." My tone was unquestionable. The guard hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and turned to leave.

I looked into the depths of the forbidden area, my heart filled with anticipation and excitement.

New strength, new challenges, new beginnings...

Everything is about to begin.

Hao Yang suddenly tightened his grip on my hand. His voice was low and rapid: "Wait, Yao'er..."

I took Hao Yang's hand and walked straight into the forbidden area.

As soon as I stepped into the forbidden area, I felt a strong spiritual energy coming towards me, which was several times stronger than other places in the family.

"It really is a holy place for cultivation!" I took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged, and began to guide the new power in my body according to the method I had realized before.

At first, everything went smoothly and the energy flowed slowly under my guidance.

Gradually, some strange phenomena began to appear around me.

Stars twinkled in the air, dancing like fireflies; fallen leaves on the ground swirled and danced without wind, forming strange patterns; even the trees in the distance began to emit a faint fluorescence, and the entire forbidden area was shrouded in a mysterious halo.

The other members of the family also apparently noticed the strange phenomenon in the forbidden area and rushed over to check it out.

I felt their gazes but ignored them, still immersed in my cultivation.

Suddenly, a powerful force burst out from my body, and the surrounding scene instantly became more bizarre, with flashing lights and abnormal energy fluctuations.

I could feel their surprised looks and even hear their whispers, but I didn't have time to pay attention to them.

Just when I was about to break through the bottleneck, a strong sense of crisis came over me.

Before I could react, a mysterious force turned into attacks and shot towards me like sharp arrows.

I was startled and quickly dodged.

Hao Yang also stood in front of me at the first moment and used his body to block the attack for me.

"Hao Yang!" I shouted anxiously, but Hao Yang just held my hand tightly and told me with a firm look that he would protect me.

I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.

Although this mysterious force is powerful, it is not unstoppable.

I used the experience and skills from my previous battle with the black-robed leader to nimbly dodge the attacks while channeling the new power in my body to fight back.

My movements became smoother and more decisive, as if I were becoming one with this new power.

After a hard fight, I finally succeeded in resisting the counterattack of the mysterious force.

The strange phenomena around gradually disappeared, and the forbidden area returned to peace.

I slowly opened my eyes and saw Hao Yang looking at me nervously.

"I'm fine." I gave him a reassuring smile.

However, to fully master this new power, I still need to face many unknown challenges...

"Yao'er..." Hao Yang's voice trembled a little. He pointed behind me and said, "You..."
