Chương 289: Strange Crystal

A valley covered in mist and Darkness; No sound of a creature could be heard in it. Even the wind was moving slowly as if it denied its authority to move at its will. The mist was so dense that even the reflection of the night sky could not be seen.

If one entered the valley and reached its center, he might witness the only object radiating light. It was a strange statue of a skull; Its head was burning in fire. The flame rising from its head seemed endless. It was like this fire would burn for eternity.

Two figures could be seen sneaking into a place far from this area; a veil of Darkness surrounded them. Their spell was strong enough to fool even the guards that came out to patrol the surrounding area. One of them could be seen observing everything with a serious expression, while the one beside him, who was thinner than him, was yawning with a bored expression on his face.
