Chapter 164

A Sinister Crisis in the Dense Forest Carrying the hope of finding the Five Elements Spirit Land and guided by the stone tablet map, Lin Yu and his three companions resolutely set out on their journey. Leaving Lingyin Village, they entered a vast, boundless expanse of dense forest. The trees here soared into the clouds, their thick branches intertwined to form a massive green dome that blocked out the sunlight entirely. Only occasional rays pierced through the gaps like sharp swords, spilling onto the leaf-covered ground to create mottled patches of light and shadow. The dense forest was eerily quiet, with almost no sound audible save for the rustling of the group treading upon the fallen leaves. Lin Yu walked at the very front of the formation, his gaze as sharp as a falcon's, constantly and vigilantly scanning his surroundings. The spiritual power sword gripped tightly in his hand trembled slightly, as though it, too, were sensing the latent dangers lurking about.
