Chapter 300 Exploration 7
Lingyu cautiously stepped out of the mysterious and deep forest, and suddenly a wide river opened up before her. The river roared and surged, flowing swiftly like a wild horse, its bottom unfathomable, as if concealing countless unknown dangers and secrets.
Just as Ling Yu frowned, racking her brains for a way to cross the turbulent river, a sudden, violent ripple spread across the calm surface, followed by the rapid formation of a massive whirlpool. In an instant, with a deafening roar, a gigantic, ferocious-looking water monster burst forth from the center of the whirlpool! This monster's body was like a small hill, covered in thick scales that gleamed with a chilling light; it opened its blood-red maw, its sharp fangs gleaming brightly in the sunlight, and continuously spewed out icy, bone-chilling arrows, hurtling straight towards Ling Yu.
Faced with such a sudden attack, Lingyu dared not be careless for a moment. She nimbly dodged to the side, avoiding the oncoming ice arrows. However, the ice arrows did not stop there; they rained down on the surrounding ground, splashing up ice shards and water droplets. Seeing this, Lingyu immediately clasped her hands together, chanted an incantation, and cast a powerful defensive spell. A transparent shield instantly enveloped her, successfully blocking the subsequent ice arrows.
Lingyu knew that passive defense was not a long-term solution; to completely defeat this ferocious water monster, she had to adopt an active offensive strategy. Therefore, she secretly circulated her inner magic, continuously gathering it into the sword she gripped tightly in her hand. With the infusion of magic, the sword emitted a dazzling light, as if it possessed world-destroying power.
Seizing the opportunity, Lingyu let out a delicate shout and leaped into the air like lightning, charging straight at the water monster. The monster, seeing this, showed no weakness, swinging its two enormous claws to strike fiercely. Lingyu, light as a swallow, nimbly weaved between the monster's giant claws, skillfully dodging one deadly attack after another. Finally, after a fierce exchange, Lingyu spotted a fleeting opening, swiftly swung her sword, and accurately pierced the water monster's right eye.
The water monster, severely wounded, let out a piercing scream. Driven mad by the pain, it lashed out wildly, whipping its claws and creating towering waves tens of meters high. Caught off guard, Ling Yu stumbled, nearly swept into the raging torrent. At the last second, she steadied herself with unwavering willpower and quickly regained her footing. Without hesitation, she cast her magic again, a blazing fire erupting from her palm, shooting like a fire dragon towards the monster's abdomen. The monster, writhing in agony from the flames, gradually lost its strength to resist. Finally, Ling Yu delivered a final blow with her sword, and the monster collapsed, sinking into the river.
Lingyu had expended a considerable amount of magic power. After resting briefly, she used flight magic to cross the river. An ancient castle appeared before her, emanating a mysterious aura. Intrigued, Lingyu headed towards the castle, ready to explore its secrets.
Lingyu slowly approached the castle, the heavy doors tightly shut. She reached out and touched the door, a chill instantly spreading through her body. Just then, the door slowly opened automatically, accompanied by a sinister creaking sound.
Lingyu cautiously entered the castle, a light mist filling the hall. Suddenly, many ghostly figures appeared around her, emitting sharp cries as they pounced on her. Lingyu calmly wielded her sword, each swing accompanied by a flash of magical light that dispelled the ghosts.
As she walked down the corridor, she noticed strange portraits hanging on the walls, the figures in which seemed to be watching her every move. At the end of the corridor stood a stone door shimmering with bizarre runes. Lingyu attempted to decipher the runes, and as she placed her hand on the stone door and infused it with a wisp of magic, the door slowly opened.
A crystal ball emitting a faint glow sat in the room. Lingyu approached it, about to touch it, when a beam of light shot from it into her mind. It was the memory of this castle's past, concealing powerful magic, waiting for a destined person to unravel its mysteries and inherit its power. Lingyu realized this was both an opportunity and a challenge, and resolved to delve deeper.
