After escaping the crisis of his Light Armor going out of control and plummeting, Zhang Yue exhausted himself searching this mysterious mountainous forest, hoping to find a quiet place to repair his armor. His clothes were tattered, his hair disheveled, and his face smudged with dust, yet his gaze remained resolute and unyielding.
He walked along a winding stream. The water was crystal clear and flowing gently, making a pleasant sound like a soft melody. Wildflowers along the banks were brightly colored—red like fire, pink like sunset clouds, and white like snow. They swayed gently in the breeze, releasing waves of fragrance whose scent felt almost magical, soothing one's mood. The surrounding trees were tall and dense, with sunlight filtering through the gaps in the leaves to cast patches of light, like scattered golden fragments on the ground.
