Rise of the Otherworld.

As the powerful force surged in, a brilliant glow emanated from everyone, each a different color, corresponding to their respective spiritual attributes. Zhang Hao emanated a deep blue light, like the boundless ocean, profound and mysterious. The light rippled like waves, and under its illumination, his features took on a more resolute look, his eyes revealing the confidence and composure of someone who commands power. This blue light was not merely an outward manifestation of his water spiritual power, but rather a reflection of the calmness and fortitude deep within him.

Lingyu was enveloped in a cyan light, which swayed in the wind like swift wings. Invigorated by this mysterious force, his wind energy intensified, as if ready to lift him up and send him soaring freely in the wind. The cyan light, like a wisp of light cloud, enveloped him, constantly shifting its form. Lingyu could feel the wind element dancing joyfully around him, obeying his every command. His hair danced freely in the wind, and he exuded a spirit of agility and elegance.

A thick yellow light enveloped the mysterious man, like the solid earth. The calming qualities of his earthly spiritual energy were fully revealed within the light. He could feel his connection with the earth growing ever closer, as if he could manipulate the rocks beneath it at will. The yellow light enveloped him tightly, like the earth's protection. His eyes revealed a sense of heaviness and composure. He seemed to be one with the earth, sensing every subtle shift within it. With a single thought, he could mobilize the boundless power of the earth.

A fiery red light emanated from the old man's body, the color of flame, representing his mastery of fire-based spiritual power. The light burned fiercely, threatening to ignite everything around him. He could feel the power of the flames surge through his body, several times more powerful than before. Like a leaping fire spirit, the red light danced joyfully around him. His face glowed brightly in the light, his eyes revealing his excitement and desire to control this powerful force. He could sense that his control over the flames had reached a new level, that with a single thought, he could ignite a prairie fire.

The woman was surrounded by a shimmering, ice-blue light, her icy energy flowing through it, making her appear as beautiful and ethereal as a fairy from the ice and snow. With a gentle wave of her hand, the air around her instantly condensed into sharp icy spires, which gleamed with a cold light, demonstrating the power of this force. The icy-blue light resembled winter snow, pure and cold. Her figure loomed in the light, like a queen in a world of ice and snow. She could feel the ice-based spiritual energy flowing through her body, like an icy river, endowing her with endless cold power.

However, the awakening of power was not without its challenges. As the power continued to surge, everyone felt a powerful pressure, as if an invisible hand were squeezing their bodies and souls. Zhang Hao clenched his teeth, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, each gleaming with light as they slid down his resolute face. He diligently channeled his spiritual energy, attempting to absorb this power within himself. He silently recited his oath in his mind, strengthening his faith and resisting the onslaught of power. The oath was like a warning bell ringing in his heart, each word like a hammer, hammering at his heart and keeping him awake amidst the pain.

Ling Yu struggled to hold on under the cyan light, wind energy surging through his body like a wild horse, uncontrollable. His body trembled slightly, but his gaze remained steadfast, a resolute gaze that seemed to penetrate countless difficulties and see the dawn of victory. He concentrated his mind, guiding the energy to flow slowly through his meridians, gradually merging with his newfound strength. He could feel the wind energy gradually becoming docile under his guidance, like a tamed horse, beginning to obey his command.

The mysterious man closed his eyes tightly, mobilizing all his earth energy to stabilize his body. The pressure felt like a thousand-pound burden, making it difficult for him to breathe, but with his tenacious will, he never gave up. His breathing became heavy and rapid, each breath carrying a powerful aura. He could feel that under the tempering of this pressure, his control over earth energy became more and more handy. His connection with the earth grew stronger, as if he could draw endless strength from the earth to withstand the overwhelming pressure.

The old man's red light pulsed violently, as the flame energy and new power collided, creating a powerful impact. His body was engulfed in flames, as if he were engulfed in a sea of ​​fire. But he had a single thought: to successfully integrate this power and contribute to the protection of the continent. His face, illuminated by the flames, appeared remarkably resolute, his eyes revealing an indomitable spirit. He constantly adjusted the flow of his spiritual energy, attempting to find a balance between the two. He could feel the flame energy gradually merging with the new power under his efforts, forming an even more powerful force.

The woman's icy blue light began to fluctuate. As her ice energy merged with the new power, it experienced a wave of rejection. Her face paled, and her once rosy lips lost their color, yet she persisted. She attempted to calm the restless energy with her will, allowing it to gradually accept the new power. Her eyes revealed a tenacity and perseverance, like a snow lotus on an iceberg, blooming beautifully despite the harshness of its environment. She could feel the ice energy gradually calm under the influence of her will, beginning to merge with the new power.

After an unknown amount of time, the glow from everyone gradually stabilized, and the overwhelming pressure slowly dissipated. They had successfully integrated this power, and each of them had experienced a qualitative leap in strength. Zhang Hao felt the surging power within him, his lips curling up slightly in a smile of relief. He knew they were one step closer to their goal of protecting the continent. The power flowed through him like a surging river, granting him endless strength.

However, before they could fully experience this power, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from outside the ruins, as if some powerful being was approaching. The roar, like rolling thunder, reverberated through the air, shaking the entire ruins. Everyone's expressions instantly grew solemn, and they quickly adjusted themselves, preparing to face the unknown challenge...
