Earth's catastrophe, crazy black crystals begin to wreak havoc

Caesar and Hu Huan breathed a sigh of relief, they knew that this was just the beginning of the search for the five materials, and the journey ahead would be even more difficult. But they did not back off, because they knew that only by finding all the materials could they save Xingtianba.

Caesar and Hu Huan walked through a dark forest, the leaves rustling under their feet. Their goal was to find the legendary ghost fire, which was the next key material in their journey.

"The Lord of the Underworld is said to live deep in this forest." Hu Huan said, her voice echoing in the woods, sounding particularly clear.

Caesar nodded, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly, "We must be careful, this forest is full of unknown dangers."

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew, and the leaves rustled, as if something was watching from the dark. The two men stopped, holding their weapons tightly, ready to deal with possible attacks.

At this moment, a figure walked out from the shadows of the trees. His face was pale, and his eyes were shining with a faint blue light. "Are you here to see me?" His voice was low and magnetic.

"Are you the leader of the Netherworld?" Hu Huan asked, with a hint of vigilance in her tone.

"That's right." The Netherworld Cult Master smiled slightly, "I know your purpose. I can take you to find the Netherworld Will-O-Wisp, but there is one condition."

"What are the conditions?" Caesar asked, his hand tightly gripping the hilt of the sword, ready to respond to any unexpected events at any time.

The Netherworld Cult Master said slowly: "You must help me collect all six Netherworld Spirit Lists. The first list is the 'Netherworld Tears', which is hidden in the deepest part of this forest."

"Tears of the Underworld?" Hu Huan repeated, her brows furrowed, obviously confused by the task.

"Yes, it is a teardrop condensed from the power of the Netherworld. It is extremely rare." The Netherworld Cult Master explained, "Only when we find it can we proceed to the next step."

Caesar and Hu Huan looked at each other, they knew this would be another difficult challenge. But they did not back down, because they believed that as long as they united as one, there would be no difficulties that could not be overcome.

"We accept your terms," ​​Caesar said firmly.

The Netherworld leader nodded, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, "Very good, follow me."

He turned around and led Caesar and Hu Huan deeper into the forest. As they went deeper, the atmosphere around them became more gloomy, as if countless pairs of eyes were watching them in secret.

After a difficult exploration, they finally found the Tear of the Underworld under an ancient tree. It was a crystal clear teardrop, emitting a faint glow.

"This is the Tears of the Underworld." The Underworld Leader said, with a hint of excitement in his voice.

Caesar and Hu Huan carefully put the Tears of the Netherworld into their pockets. They knew that this was just the beginning and the next task would be even more difficult. But they did not back down, because they believed that as long as they united as one, there would be no difficulties that could not be overcome.

Suddenly, three giants rushed out from the shadows of the forest. They were huge, their muscles were as hard as rocks, and their eyes were burning with wildness. The giants roared deafeningly, "Roar--" and the sound echoed in the forest, shaking the leaves off.

"Be careful!" Caesar shouted, his sword was already unsheathed, and the sword light drew a bright line in the dim forest.

Hu Huan quickly retreated, a short knife in her hand, the blade flashing with cold light. "We have to find a way to distract them."

The giants waved their huge fists and rushed towards the two. Caesar rushed forward, with the tip of his sword pointing directly at the giant's chest. With a "whoosh", the tip of the sword collided with the giant's skin, making a "clang" sound of metal collision.

"Their skin is too hard!" Caesar said gritting his teeth. Although his sword was sharp, it seemed powerless against the giant's hard skin.

Hu Huan suddenly had an idea, she took out a bottle of potion from her waist and threw it at the giants. The potion drew an arc in the air and landed at the feet of the giants, making a hissing sound and emitting bursts of white smoke.

The trolls were shrouded in white smoke and howled in pain, "Ah——". Their movements became slow and their vision was blocked by the smoke.

"Take advantage of now!" Hu Huan shouted. She and Caesar launched an attack at the same time. Sword lights and knife shadows shuttled through the smoke, and each swing accurately landed on the giant monster's weak point.

After a fierce battle, the giants finally fell, and the forest returned to peace. Caesar and Hu Huan were panting, their bodies were covered with traces of battle.

"We have to keep moving forward," Caesar said, his eyes firm, and despite his fatigue, his determination did not waver in the slightest.

Caesar and Hu Huan, exhausted after the battle, found an ancient rosary lying quietly on a patch of grass trampled by a giant monster. The rosary was made of dark wood, and each bead was engraved with complex symbols, emitting a mysterious luster.

"What is this?" Hu Huan bent down and picked up the rosary. Her fingers gently stroked the symbols and felt a faint energy fluctuation.

Caesar looked closer, his brows furrowed. "These symbols look like some kind of ancient spell. Perhaps this rosary holds some unknown secret."

Hu Huan nodded, her eyes sparkling with curiosity, "We have to find out its purpose. Maybe it can help us find the ghost fire."

The two began to study the symbols on the rosary carefully, trying to decipher their meaning. Caesar took out a piece of parchment and traced the symbols one by one, while Hu Huan offered her insights.

"This symbol seems to represent water, and this one seems to represent fire." Hu Huan pointed to two different symbols, with a hint of excitement in her voice.

Caesar nodded in agreement. "Then these symbols may represent the five elements: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth."

As they reasoned, the secret of the rosary was gradually revealed. They found that when the rosary was touched in a certain order, it would emit a faint blue light and make a "buzzing" sound.

"It seems that this is a key to activate some kind of mechanism." Caesar said, with a gleam of determination in his eyes.

Hu Huan tightly grasped the rosary, her heart full of anticipation, "We have to find this mechanism, maybe it's nearby."

The two began to search carefully around, not leaving out any suspicious corners. After some effort, they finally found a groove on an old tree trunk that matched the symbol on the rosary.

"It's here!" Hu Huan said excitedly. She put the rosary into the groove, and the rosary fit perfectly. Then, the tree trunk made a "click" sound and slowly opened, revealing a hidden passage.

Caesar and Hu Huan looked at each other, their eyes full of determination. They knew that the road ahead was full of unknowns, but they were ready to face all challenges.

The two men stepped into the passage and their figures disappeared into the darkness, leaving only the rosary beads, quietly emitting a mysterious light.

At the end of the passage, Caesar and Hu Huan found an ancient secret room, the walls of which were inlaid with blue gems, emitting a faint light. In the center of the secret room, on an exquisite stone platform, was placed the second list of the Netherworld Spirit List, which was surrounded by a layer of faint blue light, appearing mysterious and solemn.

"We found it!" Hu Huan's voice was filled with excitement that was hard to conceal. Her fingers gently touched the blue light and she felt a cold energy.
