Chapter 186 Difficult Pursuit
Knowing that the mysterious organization is looking for the artifact that can control people's minds, Shen Mo and others feel unprecedented pressure. They know that they must find the whereabouts of the artifact before the mysterious organization, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.
"But we don't even have any specific clues now. Where should we start looking?" Su Yao said worriedly.
After a moment of contemplation, Shen Mo said, "Let's first look for records about this artifact in the city's ancient legends and documents. Perhaps we can find some clues."
As a result, they began to frequently visit libraries and archives in the city, burying themselves in the mountains of ancient books and files. With her excellent memory and keen insight, Lin Yuwei carefully screened every piece of potentially useful information.
After several days of hard work, they finally found a vague description in a yellowed ancient book: "The legendary artifact is sealed on the top of a distant mountain. Only people with pure hearts can approach it."
"A distant mountain? The range is too broad." Qingfeng said helplessly.
Shen Mo was not discouraged: "This is at least a direction. Let's ask those travelers who often go out for adventures. Maybe someone knows the location of this mountain."
They came to the city's bazaar and asked around for news about other travelers. Finally, an experienced old traveler told them: "To the west of the city, there is a continuous mountain range, one of which is always covered by clouds and mist. Maybe that's the place you are looking for."
Shen Mo and the others thanked the old traveler and immediately prepared to set off for the western mountains. Along the way, they slept in the open air and encountered bad weather and rugged roads.
When they finally arrived at the foot of the mountain range, they looked at the towering peaks with awe in their hearts.
"This mountain is so big, it's not easy to find the artifact." Su Yao looked at the mountain with some fear.
Shen Mo encouraged: "Don't be afraid, as long as we don't give up, we will definitely find it."
They began to climb up the mountain road with difficulty. The road on the mountain was steep and dangerous, and if you were not careful, you might fall into the abyss. Lin Yuwei accidentally stepped on a loose stone and almost slipped. Fortunately, Qingfeng was quick and grabbed her.
"Be careful!" Qingfeng said with concern.
As they continued to climb, the temperature dropped and the wind bit their bones, but they still gritted their teeth and continued to move forward.
During the climb, they encountered some strange creatures, including giant birds that could breathe fire, giant pythons, and elves that could make people fall into illusions.
Faced with these dangers, Shen Mo and others did not flinch, and relied on their courage and wisdom to overcome danger time and time again.
After several days of arduous trekking, they finally approached the top of the mountain. However, the top of the mountain was shrouded by a powerful magic barrier and could not be easily entered.
"What should I do?" Su Yao looked at the magic barrier and felt very frustrated.
Lin Yuwei observed the barrier carefully and said, "I'll try to see if I can break it with a magic weapon."
She concentrated her mind, aimed the magic weapon at the barrier, and released powerful energy. The magic weapon collided with the barrier, emitting dazzling light and strong fluctuations.
After some effort, a crack finally appeared in the magic barrier. Shen Mo saw this and took the opportunity to swing his sword vigorously to expand the crack.
They carefully passed through the crack and entered the area on the top of the mountain. In an open area, they saw a stone box emitting a mysterious light.
"Could this be the box that contains the artifact?" Qingfeng said excitedly.
Just as they were about to approach the stone box, a group of mysterious figures suddenly appeared and blocked their way...
