One magical night, two youths entered a forbidden area. The forbidden area was called the Land of Darkness.

The two youths were Young Master Lin Xian along with his bodyguard Gong Zan.

Their goal is to steal the White Crane Pearl which is kept in a castle in the middle of a swamp.

It was the second mission for Lin Xian from his Master.

"Wow! Is that the White Crane Pearl?" Gong Zan said as he looked straight ahead, where there was a white flash of light.

"Yeah, I think it's the White Crane Pearl!" Lin Xian replied silently, thinking about how to take the Pearl.

The two of them were on the verge of a bridge leading to the direction where the White Crane Pearl was, a bridge with a black tiled floor shaped like a chessboard; on the left and right sides of the bridge were ten armed stone statues.

And the White Crane Pearl that Lin Xian had to take was a statue of a goddess at the end of the bridge with her arms raised to support the Pearl.

"Don't move yet! This bridge in front of us is full of traps!" Lin Xian said while blocking Gong Zan with his left hand.

"Huh, how did Young Master know?" Gong Zan asked, confused.

"I know! There's nothing I don't know!" Lin Xian replied as he squinted his eyes in every direction of each armed stone statue on the bridge's left and right.

Lin Xian walked to the side from the edge of the bridge, where it turned out that there was a very deep ravine under the bridge.

"There's a chasm below! We have to be careful!" Lin Xian said as he pointed toward the bottom of the bridge.

"How can there be an abyss in a place like this!" Gong Zan replied while scratching his head.

"There's no doubt that this place contains a lot of magic! So it's not surprising that there's a small castle in the middle of the lake, but the space inside is vast! I think this is a Dungeon," Lin Xian said again, standing on the threshold of the bridge.

Lin Xian crouched down to pick up a new pebble, then threw it onto the bridge.

The sound bouncing pebbles that Lin Xian had just thrown bounced off and stopped slowly in front of the second-order statue from where Lin Xian stood.

"GREK!"

"SLASHED!"

"BANG!"

Lin Xian and Gong Zan immediately widened their eyes as they saw clearly that the new statues on the left and right sides of the bridge had just moved. The stone statue on the right swung the sharp sword below it, and the stone statue on the left slammed a giant iron hammer toward the bridge and crushed the pebbles that Lin Xian had just thrown.

"What the fuck!" Lin Xian cursed when he saw what had happened.

Even Gong Zan immediately knelt helplessly with his eyes glaring at the bridge.

Soon the stone statues returned to their respective positions. And become a stone statue like before.

"Well, I think this will be very interesting!" Lin Xian said with a crooked smile, then prepared to run towards the bridge.

"No! Young Master!" Gong Zan shouted, then grabbed Lin Xian's leg. "Don't cross the bridge; we'd better get out of here!" Gong Zan pleaded.

"Hah, I can't do it! This is my mission! And it's in sight! There's no way I can leave it! Get out of the way!" In a firm tone, Lin Xian waved his feet, sending Gong Zan flying far from the bridge's threshold.

"Hmmm, not convincing! But well, I have to get the White Crane Pearl immediately!" Lin Xian said, then slowly stepped onto the bridge.

Lin Xian slowly stepped across the bridge floor and arrived at the first stone statue.

Stone statue The left side carries an ax weapon, and the right side carries a katana.

"Okay, what will move first!?" Lin Xian said, waiting for the stone statue's attack.

"GREK!"

"SLASHED!"

An attack came from Lin Xian's left, and he immediately jumped into the air to dodge the attack.

"SLASHED!"

But suddenly, the attack from the stone statue to the right killed Lin Xian's steps.

"Damn it!" Lin Xian swiftly spun his body in the air, rotating in sync with the two weapons currently passing through his body's lower and upper sides.

The katana that had just hit Kang Xing almost hurt his neck; Lin Xian quickly landed on the bridge. "Almost!" Lin Xian muttered in relief as he made it past the first hurdle.

"GREK!"

"SLASHED!"

"BANG!"

Before Lin Xian could take another breath, an attack reappeared on the second stone statue from the left and right.

"Fuck!" Lin Xian cursed while dodging the attack from the giant hammer directly above his head.

Lin Xian quickly retreated backward, but a sharp sword awaited him from behind.

"SLASHED!"

"ARGGGGHHH!"

"Young Master!!!" Gong Zan shouted from a distance when he saw Lin Xian getting hit by the sharp sword behind him.

"Damn it! I'm fine!" Said Lin Xian standing on the straight center line of the bridge, as the second statue from the left and right sides finished attacking.

Blood flowed profusely from Lin Xian's back, where the sharp sword swung by the stone statue managed to injure Lin Xian.

"Idiot! Can I make it to the end of the bridge? Just at the second statue, I was seriously injured like this!" Lin Xian muttered as he looked in the direction where the White Crane Pearl.

And at the same time, Lin Xian felt the presence of an enemy chasing him.

"Damn, It! Why should they again!!!" Lin Xian said, annoyed when he felt their presence. 

"Gong Zan, be prepared for the Three Swordsmen to come! The three of them are quite strong! You have to be careful! I will soon complete this mission! Please buy me some time! If you can't afford it, run! Don't let they catch you!" Lin Xian shouted at Gong Zan.

Gong Zan widened his eyes when he heard what Lin Xian said; without asking much, he nodded in understanding of Lin Xian's order. 

Gong Zan dashed from the bridge's threshold towards the castle's entrance.

Meanwhile, Lin Xian, still healing himself, had to think hard to complete the mission immediately!

'The Pearl of the White Crane is in sight! But a deadly trap is a hindrance for me this time! I have to finish this mission immediately! Lin Xian thought, crouched down, and prepared to run across the bridge.

"Aaaaaa!!!" Lin Xian shouted as he walked quickly to continue to cross the bridge.

"GREK!"

"GREK!"

"GREK!"

Lin Xian swiftly dodged every attack aimed at him, even though his life was at stake. Lin Xian would still do it to complete his second mission.

"SLASHED!"

"BAMM!"

"BANG!"

All the stone-armed statues charged in the direction where Lin Xian was, but he could do well with the strength that he had.

"Okay, one more step!" He said as he slowly jumped towards where the White Crane Pearl was.

"Catch the Thief!" Shouted from a distance, it turned out that Liao San and his two fellow Warriors had managed to enter the castle.

"Focus, Young Master, to complete the mission! These Three Swordsmen, let me take care of it!" Gong Zan muttered, then quickly blocked the three of them.

Lin Xian, who had escaped the ten Armed Stone Statues, currently, his body floating in the air, leaped towards the hand of the stone statue supporting the White Crane Pearl.

With a circular motion in the air, Lin Xian managed to get the White Crane Pearl he was looking for.

"Gotcha!" He said while holding the Pearl without realizing his body was free-falling into the abyss.

"Arghh Fuck!"

Splash! 

And suddenly, a bright light appeared in front of Lin Xian... 

ZHEP!
