Lin Xiu and his companions embarked on a new journey, carrying the hopes of everyone. They knew full well that the road ahead was fraught with unknowns and dangers, but they felt no fear. For they had each other, possessed immense power, and, above all, held the steadfast conviction to protect the world. They believed that no matter how powerful the darkness might be, they would undoubtedly find the light and fill the world with eternal hope.

Sweat trickled down Lin Xiu's forehead; he raised a hand to wipe it away, gazing steadily into the distance while tightly gripping his spear. Chaos Astral Power coursed through the shaft, as if responding to its master's resolve.
