As soon as I put it on, I met a sickly man

Ding Chen looked at the strange light, with unspeakable worry in his heart.

The light flickered like the pupils of a giant beast, emitting an unsettling aura of the unknown.

The air around them seemed to freeze, and a depressing feeling of impending storm enveloped everyone. The fear of falling into the edge of a dark abyss gripped Ding Chen's heart tightly.

"What is that?" Ding Chen muttered to himself, his tone full of vigilance.

"It looks unusual," General Lin said in a deep voice, a solemn expression on his rugged face. "Could it be that those scoundrels are behind this again?"

Xuanyuan Che frowned, his cold gaze fixed on the light. "This matter is suspicious. I think we should report it to the court first and then make a long-term plan."

Ding Chen shook his head, his eyes firm: "Che, we have been through so much, are we going to repeat the same mistakes? If there is a greater danger hidden behind this light, and we sit idly by, the consequences will be disastrous." He thought of the frightened faces of the people before, and his heart ached. He must not let such a tragedy happen again.

"But..." Xuanyuan Che wanted to persuade him again, but was interrupted by Ding Chen.

"I know what you are worried about, but we can't always wait passively. If it is really a trap, we must take the initiative to attack and nip the danger in the bud!" Ding Chen's tone was firm and unquestionable.

The two of them were at loggerheads, neither of them giving in, and the atmosphere was tense.

At this time, Xiaoxuan, who had been silent all the time, gently pulled Ladinchen's sleeve.

"I support Ding Chen," Xiaoxuan said softly, her clear eyes gleaming with wisdom. "I have a feeling there's a huge secret hidden behind this light..." She paused and pulled out an exquisite wooden box from her bosom. "And, perhaps this can help us..."

Xiaoxuan opened the wooden box, and inside were several peculiarly shaped metal discs, emitting a faint fluorescent light.

"This is the 'early warning disc' I developed based on ancient texts. It can sense the presence of danger around you," Xiaoxuan explained, distributing the discs to everyone. "And this, the 'amulet', can protect against certain special attacks."

Xiaoxuan's support gave Ding Chen great encouragement. He looked at her gratefully, his eyes full of determination.

Seeing this, Xuanyuan Che no longer insisted on his own opinion. He knew Ding Chen's determination and understood that there was no time to lose.

"Okay," he said in a deep voice, "In that case, let's go together and find out what's going on!"

The group moved towards the direction of the light, and the surrounding scenery gradually became strange.

The trees were twisted, the rocks were jagged, and the air was filled with a sickening stench of decay.

Suddenly, several huge flying creatures fell from the sky. They had bat-like wings and sharp claws, and spewed green corrosive liquid from their mouths.

General Lin bore the brunt of the attack. He raised his shield and blocked most of the liquid, but a few drops still splashed onto his armor, making a corrosive sound.

"Damn it!" General Lin roared and swung his sword at the flying creature.

Ding Chen and others also drew their weapons and engaged in fierce battles with the flying creatures.

These creatures are extremely fast and agile, making them difficult to predict.

Seeing that General Lin was gradually losing strength and the situation was critical, Ying Feng suddenly said, "Their flight paths have certain patterns. Everyone, please avoid them!"

Following Yingfeng's instructions, everyone began to consciously avoid attacks and look for opportunities to counterattack.

Ding Chen was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He seized an opportunity and stabbed a flying creature in the vitals with his sword.

Seeing this, the other creatures let out sharp cries and fled.

Everyone took a short breath and continued on their way.

As they got closer to the source of the light, the pressure around them grew greater and greater, and an inexplicable sense of fear enveloped everyone's heart.

Yingfeng suddenly stopped, raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then slowly pointed forward...

"what is that……"

In the direction of Yingfeng's finger, the thick fog dissipated, revealing a huge circular open space.

In the center of the open space, an ancient formation was flashing with a strange light, and it was this light that attracted them here.

The runes on the formation were complex and difficult to discern, emitting powerful energy fluctuations, as if something was sealed within, ready to move.

The air is filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, which makes people feel awe.

"This is... an ancient sealing formation!" Censor Su exclaimed. He took out an ancient book from his arms with trembling hands, flipping through the yellowed pages, eagerly looking for relevant records.

"Legend has it that this formation can seal the most evil things in the world. It is extremely powerful, but the method to break it is extremely complicated. If you are not careful, it will..." Censor Su paused, his face turning even paler, "The sealed thing will be released, causing unimaginable disasters!"

Xiaoxuan looked at Ding Chen worriedly and unconsciously tightened her grip on his hand.

Ding Chen held her slightly trembling hand with his backhand and gave her a firm look, silently conveying strength and comfort.

Feeling Ding Chen's encouragement, Xiaoxuan's nervousness calmed down a little. She took a deep breath and her eyes became firm again.

Just as everyone was trying to figure out how to break the spell, a low, furious roar suddenly came from the center of the formation, deafening.

The voice was full of anger and unwillingness, as if it came from a demon deep in hell, which was creepy.

"Who... dares to disturb my sleep..." The voice was intermittent, but carried a suffocating sense of oppression.

Ying Feng suddenly pulled out his dagger, pointed it at the center of the formation, and shouted sternly: "Not good!..."
