Chapter 185: Self – Challenge -14

Bai Lung approached the dark fortress, its towering black stone walls pulsating with an unknown dark energy.

The air grew colder and thicker with each step while the miasma was almost tangible against his skin.

“no doubt about it, something powerful lives here,” Bai Lung muttered to himself.

His voice echoed softly against the oppressive silence. He could feel the malevolent presence within, beckoning him closer.

He circled the fortress, looking for a way in.

But to his bad luck, The stone gates were tightly shut, and the dark stone walls seemed impenetrable even with his shards.

Nonetheless, his determination was unyielding as he wanted to know what was inside.

Just as he continued circling…

Bai Lung noticed a faint, narrow crack along the base of the wall, barely wide enough for him to squeeze through.

‘ Good Luck! ‘

He pressed his body against the cold, rough stone and slid through the opening, emerging into a dimly lit corridor.

The corridor was lined with ancient, crumbling statues.

The faces of these statuses were eroded by time and the corrupting influence of the void dust but looking at it closely it felt like the status of someone divine.

Was it a temple? Bai Lung had no idea.

Without wasting much time, Bai Lung moved cautiously while the shards illuminated his path as he ventured deeper into the fortress.

The oppressive atmosphere weighed heavily on him, but he pushed forward, after all, he still hoped of finding a way out of this forsaken realm.

Tikk! Takk!

As he continued, he heard faint sounds that was barely audible over the sound of his own footsteps.

Oddly enough, the sounds seemed to come from the walls themselves, voices filled with anguish and despair.

Suddenly, the corridor opened into a vast chamber, the ceiling lost in shadows. At the center of the chamber stood a massive throne, carved from the same black stone as the fortress walls.

Seated upon the throne was a figure cloaked in darkness, its form shifting and writhing as if made of the void dust itself.

It seems to be Emperor…

“Who dares enter my domain?” the figure’s voice boomed, echoing through the chamber.

It was deep and resonant, filled with power and authority.

Bai Lung stepped forward with eyes straight on the figure, ” Seems like a fine target, ” he lightly muttered.

” hoho.. ”

The figure on the throne chuckled, a sound that sent shivers down Bai Lung’s spine.

” Many have sought escape from this place, but none have succeeded… You are just another one who is trapped here, accept your fate, you can’t escape, the depth of abyss isn’t a trail, it’s a prison designed to trapped the cocky person who thinks they are some big shot and challenge the inevitable,” The figure spoke in a bone chilling manner.

Bai Lung’s gaze hardened listening to his words, hmm, come to think of it, why was he even trying to leave this world in the first place?

Was he really trapped here? He wondered as he thought he might have lost all of his previous memories.

So, who was he? All, he remembers is slaughtering and searching for things that aren’t dark.

” Trapped? ” he couldn’t help but let out, even the giant one had said, he was just like them, trapped here.

” Indeed!! Trapped here, in the place that has no escape… You must have realized your memory of the life before being trapped here are all gone, we are just like you, trapped here without the memory of the past… We just know we were something but came quite recall what, ” The figure said.

” Huh? Trapped here? Just like me? If so, why don’t you try to escape? ” Bai Lung couldn’t help but ask hurriedly.

” Hahaha! ” hearing Bai Lung’s words, the figure couldn’t help but laugh menacingly.

” Ooh! Little one, I have lived for more than thousands of years in this place exploring every single inch, the place has no escape… ” The figure said while the next moment he slightly raised what seemed to be its finger.

In an instant, the shards floating around Bai Lung’s body were controlled by the figure, almost killing Bai Lung.

” These shards… I was the first owner of these, unlike most others, I have more memory before being consumed, back then, when I explored the world, it wasn’t even corrupted, ” The figure said.

” Huh? ” Bai Lung was confused.

” The way to escape this place doesn’t lie in this place, ” The figure spoke.

” Then where? ”

“Outside of this world! ”

“Outside? Outside where? ”

” go and look at the sky, you can see something very far away, that’s the place that can help not just you but everyone escape, ”

” sky? ” Bai Lung can’t see through the fog at all.

” There is a Tower floating in the sky, once you enter there, you need to answer certain questions but the answer must be the same as you have mentioned previously before entering here, ” The figure spoke.

” If that’s the method to escape the world then why haven’t you escaped yet? ”

“As I said, you need to answer that same answer you have said previously before coming here, which, everyone eventually forgets and gets trapped, ” The figure uttered.

” If you think you can successfully escape this place, then, I can help you reach there, but, the tower isn’t easy to conquer, The figure said while looking at Bai Lung.

Hearing this, Bai Lung was confident, if it was just answering, he believed he would do it.

” Fine take me there, ” he couldn’t stop himself from saying it arrogantly thinking he was far superior compared to others.

But, seeing this, The figure was indifferent, all the people he had met were the same as him, arrogant and self-fulfilling yet none could truly pass the trial.

” Hehehaha! Don’t blame me once you fail the trial, because, you will become like the rest of us, the creatures of the dark, ” The figure laughed menacingly thinking another one would become the dark creature.

But!!!
