Since the sky was covered, the heavens began to show their holiness

Zhou Xian looked at the worn stone slab in his hand expectantly, his eyes wandering over it eagerly. But soon, the expectation on his face was replaced by helplessness. He didn't recognize any of the words carved on the stone slab.

It was a type of writing that had never been seen before. The lines were simple and mysterious, and exuded a sacred aura. It formed a sharp contrast with the evil and gloomy black fog that permeated the surroundings, and seemed particularly abrupt.

Zhou Xian frowned slightly, and his slender fingers gently stroked the rough edge of the stone slab, his eyes full of thought and consideration.

After a moment, he flicked his finger, and the stone slab turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the space ring on his hand. Although he knew nothing about the mysterious words on the stone slab, with his keen intuition, he could clearly feel that this stone slab was not an ordinary thing. Maybe at a critical moment in the future, this seemingly insignificant stone slab will become the key to solving the mystery, so he did not abandon it, but kept it properly and prepared to study it later.

Zhou Xian continued to walk around in the ruins, examining everything around him with sharp eyes. He noticed that there were still some ancient traces on the ground, such as the foundations of former roads and houses, which indicated that there had been frequent human activities here.

But after careful observation, he found that these traces all showed the vicissitudes of time. The murals on the wall were mottled and difficult to distinguish, and the utensils in the corners were broken. The scattered bones were corroded and riddled with holes, leaving only some broken bones, as if silently telling the disaster and destruction that this place had experienced.

Judging from these signs, humans have lived here a long time ago, and now this land has long been shrouded in darkness and silence, and the vitality and prosperity of the past have disappeared without a trace.

After searching for a long time in the ruins but still finding nothing, Zhou Xian did not show any disappointment.

He raised his head slightly and looked up at the sky. The sky, which was originally shrouded in black fog and looked gloomy, became even darker. The sun's rays were blocked layer by layer, the light gradually weakened, and the surrounding scenery became increasingly blurred.

"It probably won't be very peaceful here after nightfall." Zhou Xian opened his lips slightly, speaking in a low voice.

As the sky darkened, he could feel more and more clearly the malice hidden in the black fog. The vague feeling of being watched became more and more obvious, as if countless pairs of cold eyes were staring at him from behind the thick black fog. It felt like being in the middle of a group of hungry hunters, and he was the coveted prey.

"Let's find a place to settle down first." Zhou Xian thought to himself that it was not a wise move to spend the night in this unknown place and expose himself in the open air.

Time passed by, and the night became darker. The surroundings had long been swallowed by the boundless darkness. Just when Zhou Xian was about to give up, he finally found a rare shelter.

A small house that looked ordinary but was well preserved. He walked closer and keenly sensed a strange aura. The strange black fog that was originally spreading wantonly was forcibly repelled by an invisible force when it approached the house.

The black fog surged like a tide, but it could never cross the invisible boundary, as if there was something in the hut that frightened them. Zhou Xian narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly stepped into the mysterious hut.

As soon as he stepped into the hut, Zhou Xian quickly scanned the room. The furnishings in the room were simple, with only a few pieces of crude furniture, which looked ordinary. However, when his eyes fell on these pieces of furniture, his heart suddenly moved. He found that the surface of these furniture was not covered with thick dust.

"Someone is here." Zhou Xian whispered to himself, his eyes sharp as an eagle, and he became alert instantly. His eyes wandered around every corner of the house, not missing any details. The few simple pieces of furniture without dust, although placed randomly, showed signs of being used. There seemed to be a trace of life in the air, all of which clearly showed that someone had lived here recently. Zhou Xian's fighting spirit quietly flowed in his body, and he was ready to deal with emergencies at any time. To be able to live in such a strange place, the owner here must be very powerful.

Just as Zhou Xian was concentrating and secretly on guard, a voice as crisp as a silver bell suddenly rang out in the quiet little house. The voice was like a clear spring in the mountains, with the innocence and agility unique to a girl, soft and gentle, making people feel particularly comfortable listening to it.

Zhou Xian frowned at the sudden and crisp voice. He listened carefully, but found that he could not understand what the other party was saying at all. The strange language was different from any language he had ever come into contact with.

Zhou Xian's eyes shot towards the source of the voice like lightning. When he saw the person in front of him clearly, he was slightly startled. It was a young girl with long hair as blue as the ocean tied up high, and the ends of her hair swayed gently in the dim light. She was born with a delicate face, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, skin as white as snow, and a cherry mouth slightly opened under her small nose, as if in surprise. She was wearing a gorgeous princess dress, with complex patterns and exquisite decorations showing her extraordinaryness, like a princess from a fairy tale, which seemed particularly abrupt in this simple little house.

The girl's pair of strange eyes are particularly eye-catching. One is deep purple, as mysterious as a deep pool, as if hiding endless secrets; the other is clear blue, like the vast sky, pure and ethereal.

I thought such a pair of eyes with different colors would look abrupt, but on her face, not only did it not look out of place, but it actually added a different kind of charm to her. Those unique eyes shone in the dim little house, contrasting with her gorgeous princess dress, making her look like an elf from a mysterious country, both noble and mysterious. Zhou Xian's nerves, which were originally tense due to vigilance, unconsciously relaxed a little, and he secretly looked at the girl.

The huge pair of scissors in the girl's hand flashed a cold light in the dim light. The size of the scissors was far beyond the ordinary, and the shape was unique and strange, as if it was specially made for a special mission. A mysterious and holy power lingered above the scissors, and the wisps of light were looming, giving people a wonderful feeling of both danger and holiness.

The power seemed to be connected with the aura that repelled the black fog in the hut. Zhou Xian noticed this keenly and had some guesses about the girl's identity.

Zhou Xian's eyes moved slightly, and a character from the game in his previous life emerged in his mind. He also had some guesses about where he was now.

Zhou Xian shook his head slightly, his face full of helplessness. "Isn't Zoe too unreliable?"

He muttered in a low voice, quickly sorting out the current situation in his mind. If this is really the Rune Continent,

Considering the strange black fog and mysterious environment that permeated the surroundings, there was a high probability that he had been teleported to the Shadow Island.

Look at the girl in front of you who is as delicate as a porcelain doll, holding a huge pair of scissors that exude a mysterious and holy power. With her unique heterochromatic eyes and gorgeous dress, she should be the little Roast Chicken Gwen.
