Hatching a Magical Crystal

The 10 minute-long travel felt like 10 years to both men. They were exhausted by the time they reached the end of the passageway. When they stopped to look at each other, they could see that their pallid faces were covered in cold sweat.

"Phew…" Lin Li panted heavily. When he turned to look back, he couldn't help but distastefully exclaim, "I will never set foot into this darn place even if there needs to be a second time…"

"Same here…" Hutton agreed as he wiped his sweat off with his sleeves dramatically.

The two of them rested against the cold stone wall. Only after half an hour did they muster enough strength to raise their exhausted bodies and push the pitch-black gate open…

The gate creaked open, and glaring light made both men hold their breaths. At that instant, the entire passageway was lit up by the glow.

The dazzling light forced Lin Li to shut his eyelids. He only opened his eyes again after adjusting to the change in his environment.
