Chapter 143 Going upstream
Jin Qiu did not answer directly, but nodded slightly and led Xinghan towards the cave entrance.
As they approached, the dark purple-black aura seemed to become thicker and stronger, causing people to hold their breath involuntarily.
Xinghan's heart was filled with unprecedented excitement and anticipation, and his pace unconsciously quickened, as if every step was in step with the beat of hope.
He looked up at the gray cave entrance, and a strong premonition surged in his heart - Shen Li was there, and he was about to uncover all the mysteries and rescue her from unknown danger.
However, just as Xinghan strode confidently towards the cave entrance, a strange phenomenon occurred.
The entrance to the cave seemed to have a will of its own. No matter how hard Xinghan tried, it always maintained a subtle distance that was neither far nor near.
Every time he thought he was about to touch the dark entrance, the hole would subtly move back, preventing him from getting really close.
Xinghan frowned, his heart full of doubts and puzzlement. He stopped and looked around, trying to find the answer to this strange phenomenon. Jinqiu hovered gently beside him, and the same confusion seemed to flash in his round eyes.
"This...what is going on?" Xinghan murmured to himself. He couldn't believe what he had experienced.
Could it be that there is some unknown mechanism or test waiting for him at the entrance of this cave?
Xinghan faced the rock-solid barrier and the dazzling sun-like center of the formation. He moved slightly and quickly adjusted his fighting stance.
His chest rose and fell, as if he wanted to absorb all the spiritual energy between heaven and earth into his body. Then, he slowly raised his hands, palms facing each other, closed his eyes and concentrated, and the strength of his whole body began to gather between his hands in an indescribable way.
At this moment, Xinghan was silently reciting the most basic move in his heart - "Starfall Strike".
But this time, he was not just fighting against the enemy, but wanted to take this opportunity to test whether his spiritual power had made a qualitative leap after the experience just now. As his thoughts drove, the air around him seemed to tremble, and invisible spiritual power fluctuations began to spread around him.
Suddenly, Xinghan's eyes opened sharply, and a hint of determination and expectation flashed in his eyes.
He suddenly pushed his hands forward, and with a low chant, bits of starlight gathered from his palms and quickly condensed into a dazzling ball of stars, which rushed towards the sun-like center of the formation with destructive power.
However, this starfall strike was not a display of his full strength, but more like a tentative attack.
Xinghan stared at the collision point between the star ball and the center of the formation, silently calculating the consumption and feedback of spiritual power in his mind.
He hoped that through this attack, he would be able to accurately assess the extent of his spiritual power growth and be fully prepared for the next battle.
As the star ball and the center of the formation collided violently, a powerful energy wave instantly erupted, shaking the entire barrier slightly.
However, surprisingly, the seemingly indestructible core of the formation did not suffer any substantial damage, but instead seemed to stand there even more firmly.
He thought that the power of the stars would be enough to shake the seemingly invincible light.
However, to his surprise, the sun was like an eternal rock, showing no reaction to his star strikes. The dazzling light was still bright and firm, as if mocking his powerlessness.
At this moment, Xinghan's heart seemed to be hit by a huge rock, and an indescribable sense of disappointment arose.
He originally thought that after this period of training, his strength had made a qualitative leap and was enough to cope with any challenge, but the reality was like a loud slap in the face, making him clearly realize his insignificance and inadequacy.
The frustration came flooding over him, threatening to overwhelm him, but he didn't let the emotion control him for too long.
He quickly adjusted his breathing, forced himself to calm down, and stared at the sun with sharp eyes.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the sun's rays seemed even more dazzling than before, almost impossible to look directly at.
However, within this dazzling light lies an indescribable sense of falsehood, just like the carefully arranged stage lights, which, although dazzling, lack the natural charm and agility of life.
"Huh, that's it."
A sneer appeared on Xinghan's lips. He realized that this sun was most likely not a natural thing, but an illusion created by some force to confuse people and cover up the truth.
At this moment, Jin Qiu's gentle and wise voice sounded in his ears:
"Master, the spiritual power I sensed here seems to be closely connected to the sun, and may even have strengthened the sun's energy. You need to find a way to reverse this connection, perhaps to break this deadlock."
Jinqiu's hint was like the sun shining through the clouds, which made Xinghan understand instantly.
He closed his eyes and carefully felt the fluctuations of spiritual energy around him, trying to find the source of power connected to the sun.
After much thought, he finally realized the key - to break the barrier, he had to do the reverse operation and use reverse spiritual power to fight against the enhanced solar energy.
So, Xinghan once again gathered all his spiritual power, but this time he did not just attack blindly, but cleverly incorporated the technique of reverse spiritual power. He took a deep breath and shouted in a low and firm voice:
“Going against the current, huh, I’ll see if you can break it this time!” As the words fell, he once again used the Star Strike move, but this time, the star power was mixed with the fluctuation of reverse spiritual power, like a warrior going against the current, vowing to break through all obstacles.
The power of the stars and the reverse spiritual power intertwined and collided in the air, forming a dazzling light that rushed straight towards the sun. At that moment, the entire space seemed to tremble.
Then, a shocking scene appeared - the sun exploded like a firework, releasing dazzling light and then quickly dissipating, revealing the clear night sky that was originally blocked. In this night sky, the morning star has quietly risen, indicating that a new day is about to dawn.
"That's great!" Xinghan couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart.
It seems that the reverse spiritual power he invented is quite useful.
If you don't know how to do something, it's better to do the opposite.
The joy and pride in his heart surged like a tide. This achievement was not only an affirmation of his own strength, but also the best interpretation of faith and persistence. As the sun's rays faded, the sky returned to tranquility, and Xinghan's sight fell on the area that was once covered by the strong light.
Only then did he clearly see the hole that had always been difficult to reach.
"Wow..." Jin Qiu exclaimed with joy.
