On the other side, Hei Yu was currently looking around the forest for firewood.
Roars of Peril Species could be heard from time to time, making the already gloomy forest even more terrifying.
After all, he was not familiar with the terrain here. In order to prevent any accidents, Hei Yu's left hand was placed on the handle of the spear.
In fact, Hei Yu had also dealt with a few reckless Peril Beasts on the way here.
"I wonder how my father is doing…"
As he walked, Hei Yu was thinking about the matters of the Empire.
Ever since he left the Empire, Hei Yu had never seen his father, the Emperor.
In his impression, although his father was old, it should not be a problem for him to hold on for another ten years.
However, for some reason, Hei Yu always had a bad premonition in his heart. He felt that things would not be so simple.
" I hope my worries are unnecessary…"
Sighing, Hei Yu muttered to himself.
In fact, Hei Yu was not unaware of the current state of the Empire. Although it looked prosperous on the surface, there were serious problems within. With the ministers disrupting the court, ghosts and monsters in human skin ran rampant everywhere, committing all kinds of crimes and rebellions.
Although these problems were not obvious, it was also because the current emperor was still around. Although the current emperor was not a wise ruler, he was not a fatuous ruler who would be manipulated by others. Therefore, these people did not dare to be too arrogant.
However, what if the Emperor was no longer around?……
"After I succeed the throne, I will definitely change this situation!”
After silently swearing in his heart once again, Hei Yu finally gathered enough firewood.
However, at this moment-
"Come…come…come…"
Suddenly, an indescribably wonderful voice sounded out by Hei Yu's ears.
Following the sound of this voice, Hei Yu's head suddenly felt an intense pain.
It was clearly not cold in the forest, but Hei Yu's back seemed to be pressed by ice, his body trembling non-stop.
"Who is it? Who is that talking over there? Ah!"
Hei Yu hugged his head in pain. Although it was very difficult to understand, there was something similar to information flowing into Hei Yu's consciousness along with this strange voice.
"Come…come…come…"
Yes, it flowed directly into Hei Yu's consciousness. There was still a terrifying silence all around.
"Ah!"
The pain became more and more intense. Hei Yu was already unable to endure it any longer.
Then, Hei Yu's consciousness temporarily disappeared. His body started to move strangely as he walked towards the depths of the forest.
When Hei Yu regained his consciousness, he was shocked to discover that he had unknowingly walked into a dark place.
"This is…?"
Hei Yu subconsciously raised his head to look at the sky. He wanted to determine the direction based on the position of the constellation. Immediately after, he widened his eyes in surprise.
In the sky, not to mention the starry sky, even the moon could not be seen. It was simply chaos!
" This is…"
Hei Yu then turned around to take a look. A shocked expression once again appeared in his black eyes.
As far as his eyes could see, there was a building made of pitch-black stone. It looked like an object that had been in ruins hundreds of years ago, like an ancient ruin. In this chaotic space, it was the only one that stood.
The walls of the ruins were covered in a layer of coal ash, and cracks could be seen everywhere. It must have been abandoned here after no one lived here.
"What ruins are these? Why am I here?"
Hei Yu's gaze looked to every corner of the temple. He carefully looked around and then discovered a place that seemed to be an entrance.
"Is this the way in?"
All of this happened too suddenly. Hei Yu did not even know what had happened before he was brought here.
However, if he wanted to know the reason, he could only go in and take a look, right? After all, if there was no reason, why would he be brought here?
Hei Yu hesitated for a moment, but still decided to go in and take a look.
After entering the temple, he saw a straight path that was so dark that he could not even see his own fingers. With every step that Hei Yu took, his surroundings would emit a blurry light. The walls of the temple seemed to be coated with a paint that could reflect light.
The range of the light gradually expanded, causing Hei Yu to feel slightly relieved. He continued to walk forward in silence. In the end, he reached the end without encountering any forks along the way.
" You're finally here…My successor…"
Then, a sentence suddenly sounded out of nowhere.
