Chapter 20

The team heading to the Sky Island in search of the Eye of the Storm was now facing an unprecedented and formidable challenge. To reach the mystical Sky Island floating high above the clouds, their only means was to rely on a miraculous flying Divine Artifact. However, this journey was destined to be anything but smooth. Along the flight, fierce air currents and raging lightning mercilessly assaulted them. The gale roared, sounding like a ferocious beast howling in a frenzy, doing everything in its power to drag them down from the sky. The team members wore tense expressions, gripping the Divine Artifact tightly with both hands and pouring all their strength into maintaining balance. Lightning flashed wildly through the dense clouds like violent silver snakes, striking at them repeatedly. Faced with these terrifying lightning attacks, they had no choice but to pull out all the stops, deploying Spiritual Energy Shields to stubbornly defend themselves. Yet every time lightning struck, the shields violently fluctuated, consuming vast amounts of precious spiritual energy in an instant. "Hang in there, everyone! We're almost at the Sky Island!" shouted the Captain—a brave, dashing young man—at the top of his lungs over the roar of the gale.
