They went on, across fields and over hills.

Along the way, they met all kinds of people, some were warm and hospitable, some were cold and distant.

But no matter what kind of person they meet, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang maintain a peaceful mind and deal with them with their kindness and wisdom.

One evening, they came to a small village.

The people in the village were busy preparing dinner, smoke was rising, and the air was filled with the aroma of food.

"Let's rest here tonight." Luo Chen suggested.

Qingshuang nodded, and they walked into the village and found a small inn.

The innkeeper was a kind middle-aged woman who welcomed them warmly and prepared a clean room for them.

At dinner time, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang sat in the lobby of the inn and dined with other travelers.

The hall was bustling with people talking about all kinds of things, from the weather to the harvest, from legends from far away to news from nearby.

"Have you heard? Someone recently saw a strange beast in the nearby mountains." A weather-beaten face traveler said mysteriously.

"Really? What kind of beast is it?" the person next to him asked curiously.

"I heard that the beast has wings and can fly in the sky. It is also extremely powerful and can even smash the hardest rocks." The traveler described it vividly.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that this might not be an ordinary wild beast, but some kind of monster they had never seen before.

"Let's go and take a look tomorrow." Luo Chen whispered to Qingshuang.

Qingshuang nodded. She knew that Luo Chen always had his reasons for his decisions.

The next morning, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang said goodbye to the innkeeper and headed towards the mountains.

They passed through the dense forest, crossed the stream, and finally arrived at the place the traveler had described.

Sure enough, they saw the legendary monster.

It has huge wings and sharp claws. It is standing on a huge rock and howling to the sky.

"It seems we have to be careful." Luo Chen clenched the sword in his hand.

Qingshuang was also ready for the battle, she knew that this battle would not be easy.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang approached the monster step by step. The monster seemed to notice their arrival, turned around and stared at them with its blood-red eyes.

The battle was about to break out, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang launched attacks at the same time.

Luo Chen's swordsmanship was extremely sharp, and Qingshuang's sword light was like a meteor across the night sky.

The monster roared, flapped its wings, and stirred up a gust of wind, trying to blow Luo Chen and Qing Shuang down.

However, Luo Chen was as steady as a rock, while Qingshuang jumped up lightly and avoided the wind.

"Qingshuang, you attack from the left and I will attack from the right!" Luo Chen shouted.

Qingshuang nodded, and as swiftly as a swallow, she nimbly moved to the left side of the monster.

The sword in her hand flashed, and a cold light pierced the side of the monster.

The monster roared and tried to fight back with its claws, but Qingshuang's swordsmanship was extremely flexible and he easily avoided its attack.

Luo Chen launched a fierce attack from the right side. His sword skills were wide open and close, and each sword made a sound of breaking through the air, going straight to the vital points of the monster.

The monster was forced to retreat again and again by the attacks of the two men, its roars mixed with pain.

The battle lasted for several rounds. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang cooperated well and gradually gained the upper hand.

Finally, after a perfect coordination, Luo Chen stabbed the monster's heart with his sword, and Qingshuang's sword tip accurately pierced its throat.

The monster let out one last wail before its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, raising a cloud of dust.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang smiled at each other. They knew that this victory was the result of their tacit cooperation.

"Qingshuang, your swordsmanship is getting better and better." Luo Chen said approvingly.

Qing Shuang smiled and responded: "Without your cooperation, I wouldn't be able to do so well."

The two rested for a while and then began to examine the monster's corpse.

They discovered that there was a crystal core emitting a faint light inside the monster's body.

Luo Chen carefully took out the crystal core and observed it carefully.

"This crystal core seems to contain powerful power." Luo Chen said.

Qing Shuang came over curiously, "What can we do with it?"

"Perhaps it can be used to enhance our weapons, or as an aid to training." Luo Chen replied.

They decided to keep the crystal core with them in case of emergency.

Afterwards, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang left the forest and continued their journey.

A few days later, they arrived at a prosperous town.

The town is bustling with people coming and going.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang decided to stay here for a while and replenish some necessities.

At the town's market, they saw a variety of stalls selling everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to exquisite handicrafts.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang walked and looked, enjoying the tranquility and liveliness.

"Luo Chen, look at this." Qingshuang said, pointing at a small trinket on a stall.

Luo Chen walked over, picked up the small ornament, and found that it was an exquisite jade pendant with some ancient patterns engraved on it.

"This jade pendant looks very special." Luo Chen said.

The stall owner was a kind old lady. She smiled and said to Luo Chen: "This jade pendant is not an ordinary ornament. It has the function of warding off evil spirits and avoiding evil."

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that this jade pendant might be useful to them.

So, Luo Chen bought the jade pendant and hung it around Qingshuang's waist.

"This way you will be safer." Luo Chen said with a smile.

Qingshuang looked at Luo Chen gratefully, she knew that Luo Chen always thought about her.

evening.

The two rented a small courtyard in the town.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang planned to stay in this town for a few days to rest.

At the same time, they can also sort out their thoughts.

See where to focus your future experience.

"Qingshuang."

In the town, in a small courtyard.

Luo Chen sat silently under the stone pavilion. He looked up at the bright moon in the sky and whispered to Qingshuang beside him, "What do you think of this town?" Qingshuang leaned lightly on the railing of the stone pavilion. The moonlight sprinkled on her beautiful face, reflecting a faint glow.

She pondered for a moment and spoke slowly: "This town is very peaceful, people live in peace, and seem to be isolated from the outside world. But I think we can't stay here for too long. After all, our goal is to improve ourselves and explore the unknown."

Luo Chen nodded, he knew that Qingshuang's words made sense.

Although they can find brief peace in such a small town, their journey is far from over, and there are more challenges waiting for them.

"You're right, Qingshuang." Luo Chen stood up and walked to Qingshuang's side, his eyes firm, "We can't forget our original intention. Although this town is peaceful, we still have a long way to go."

Qingshuang turned around, stood side by side with Luo Chen, and looked at the night sky in the distance.

She whispered, "We can stay in town for a few days to sort out our thoughts, but then we must move on. Perhaps we can get some news about the outside world here and prepare for the next journey."

Luo Chen nodded in agreement, and they decided to go to the teahouses and taverns in the town early the next morning, as that was usually where the most information was concentrated.

On the second day, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang got up early, had a simple breakfast, and then walked towards the town center.

They came to a teahouse that looked quite busy, filled with all kinds of people, including businessmen, travelers, and local residents.

They found a seat in a corner and sat down, ordering a pot of tea and some snacks.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang sipped tea while listening attentively to the conversations of the people around them.

"Have you heard? The northern border has been unstable recently, and foreign troops are gathering." A middle-aged man with a full beard said worriedly.

"Yes, I've heard about it too. It is said that they are looking for the legendary 'Stone of Revelation', which is said to have the power to change the world." A young scholar next to him added.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that this news was very important to them.

If the aliens are really looking for some powerful force, then they must find out the truth as soon as possible to prevent possible disasters.

"Qingshuang, it seems that our direction has been determined." Luo Chen whispered to Qingshuang, "How about we go to the north and find out the truth about this 'Stone of Revelation'?"

Qingshuang nodded. She knew that Luo Chen’s decisions were always well considered.

They decided to stay in the town for another day to gather more intelligence about the northern border before setting off north.

In the following day, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang asked around in the town for news, and they got some useful information from different channels.

They learned that there was indeed an alien army active on the northern border, and they seemed to be very obsessed with the "Stone of Apocalypse".

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang packed their bags and prepared to leave the town.

They know that the road ahead will be full of unknowns and dangers, but they also understand that only by facing challenges can they become stronger.

On the morning of the day they left the town, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang stood at the entrance of the town and looked back at this peaceful place where they once stayed.

They knew that this time they left, they might not come back for a long time.

"Let's go, Qingshuang." Luo Chen said softly, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

Qingshuang nodded, she gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, and embarked on the journey to the north with Luo Chen side by side.

They crossed the fields around the town, crossed the mountains, and finally came to a desolate border area.

The air here is filled with tension and anxiety, and signs of alien military activities can be seen everywhere.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang carefully avoided enemy patrols and went deep into the heart of the border.

They discovered an ancient ruins occupied by an alien army, which seemed to be the location of the "Stone of Apocalypse".

The ruins are filled with various mechanisms and traps.

Even formations, restrictions, and monsters that only appear in some ruins appeared here.

"It's dangerous here."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other. They knew that every step they took next had to be done with caution.

Luo Chen took out the jade pendant he had just bought from his waist and handed it to Qing Shuang, "Take this with you, maybe it can help us resist some unexpected events."

Qingshuang took the jade pendant and gently hung it around her neck. She could feel the faint warmth emanating from the jade pendant, as if there was really some mysterious power flowing through it.

The two continued to go deeper into the ruins, carefully avoiding the traps with every step.

Luo Chen is good at observation, while Qing Shuang has a keen intuition about danger, and the two complement each other, allowing them to successfully overcome numerous obstacles.

Finally, they came to a huge stone gate, which was engraved with ancient runes and emitted a faint light.

Luo Chen observed carefully and found that these runes seemed to have some connection with the patterns on the jade pendant.

"Qingshuang, look at these runes. They seem to be similar to the patterns on your jade pendant." Luo Chen said.

Qingshuang nodded, she took off the jade pendant and tried to move it closer to the stone door.

The moment the jade pendant approached the stone gate, it emitted a brighter light, and the runes seemed to be activated and began to rotate slowly.

The stone door slowly opened with a heavy roar.

Luo Chen and Qingshuang held their breath and carefully walked into the secret room behind the stone door.

In the secret room, a huge crystal stone was quietly suspended in the air, emitting a soft light.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were both shocked by the beauty of the crystal, but they soon realized that this should be the legendary "Stone of Revelation".

However, just as they were about to approach, a figure suddenly flashed out from the darkness and blocked their way.

He was a warrior of a foreign race, his eyes were full of vigilance and hostility.

"Who are you? Why did you break in here?" the alien warrior asked.

Luo Chen took a step forward and replied calmly: "We are only here to investigate the truth about the 'Stone of Revelation'. We have no ill intentions."

The alien warrior sneered, "You humans are always greedy for power, but the power of the 'Stone of Revelation' is not something you can get your hands on."

Qingshuang clenched the sword in his hand, ready to respond to any possible battle at any time.

Luo Chen tried to persuade the alien warriors: "We are not greedy people, but we are worried that the 'Stone of Revelation' will fall into the wrong hands and cause disaster."

The alien warrior was silent for a moment, as if thinking about Luo Chen's words.

Finally, he slowly put down his weapon, "I can trust you, but you must prove your sincerity."

Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other. They knew that this was an opportunity as well as a challenge.

They must demonstrate their strength and sincerity in order to gain the trust of alien warriors.

Luo Chen stepped forward and began to explain to the alien warriors their origins and purpose, while showing them the intelligence and evidence they had collected along the way.

Qingshuang supported silently from the side; her existence itself was a silent force.

After an in-depth communication, the alien warriors were finally moved by Luo Chen and Qing Shuang's sincerity.

He told them that the "Stone of Apocalypse" did have extremely powerful power, but it also contained huge risks.

The aliens seek it out to prevent it from falling into the hands of evil forces.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang understood the alien warriors' concerns, and they promised to help protect the "Stone of Apocalypse" and prevent it from becoming the source of disaster. (End of this chapter)
