Douluo Continent: Transmigrated into Tang San's Younger Sister and Became a God with Two Martia

Chapter 252 The Aura of the Underworld (Part 1)

Upon hearing this, Shi Ye frowned in suspicion, not believing what Tang Nian said.

Even so, Shi Ye appeared calm on the surface, but deep down he knew perfectly well that Tang Nian said those things simply because she didn't want him to worry.

Because Shi Ye knew exactly what Tang Nian was thinking, he wouldn't expose her. Pretending to be stupid when necessary was a good option.

But a fleeting, almost imperceptible tenderness flashed in Shi Ye's deep eyes. Then, he slowly extended his broad, warm hand and gently stroked Tang Nian's head, his voice extremely gentle, "Little Tang Nian, take your time, don't rush, there's still plenty of time."

Hearing this, Tang Nian nodded vigorously in agreement. However, even though she appeared relaxed, Tang Nian's nerves were still taut like a fully drawn bow, and she dared not relax for even a moment.

Especially after that terrifying experience, she was in a state of high tension. The thought of witnessing those strange sights again filled her with endless fear and panic.

Although rationally speaking, Tang Nian was very clear that those things that had appeared were all illusory and did not exist in the real world.

But when she was actually in that eerie, terrifying, and chilling environment, Tang Nian was shocked to find that she had lost the ability to distinguish between illusion and reality for a moment.

This unprecedented experience terrified her so much that she dared not close her eyes, fearing that if she did, she would have to face those terrifying scenes again.

At this moment, Tang Nian sat blankly by the Yellow Springs Road like a statue, as if her soul had been taken away.

Her once bright and lively eyes were now empty and lifeless, staring blankly and helplessly at everything before her.

For the first time in her life, she felt a sense of bewilderment and disorientation, as if the whole world had undergone a dramatic transformation in an instant, becoming so unfamiliar and incomprehensible.

For a moment, Tang Nian was completely lost on the edge of reality and illusion, her thoughts in utter chaos.

She began to doubt everything around her, even feeling that the Douluo Continent world she was in was an illusion.

So, was the death she experienced real?

Could it be that she didn't actually die?

Or perhaps she is still alive, but trapped in some strange and bizarre illusion?

These questions, one after another, were like heavy boulders, relentlessly crashing down on Tang Nian's heart, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

The confusion in her heart continued to spread, and her eyes gradually became hazy and unfocused.

Finally, she slowly turned her head and looked at Shi Ye beside her, as if hoping to get some answers from him and find some strength to rely on.

Shi Ye stood there quietly like a sculpture, his bright eyes fixed firmly on Tang Nian, as if he wanted to pass on the power deep within his heart to Tang Nian.

In his eyes, there was not a trace of hesitation or wavering, only full of encouragement and support. His firm gaze was like a warm ray of sunshine, shining directly into Tang Nian's heart, making her tremble involuntarily.

Tang Nian bit her lower lip tightly, and her originally pink lips were now slightly white from biting them.

She seemed to be struggling intensely inside, but in the end she made a major decision. She slowly stood up and walked with slightly heavy steps toward the place that had always filled her with endless fear. With each step she took, she could feel her heart racing and her breathing becoming rapid.

Finally, Tang Nian arrived at the spot that had terrified her. She took a deep breath and gently sat down. In that instant, whether it was her imagination or not, she felt a chill rise up her spine and quickly spread throughout her body.

However, Tang Nian had already made up her mind to face this fear, so she closed her eyes without hesitation, ready to accept everything that was about to befall her.

The moment Tang Nian closed her eyes, she suddenly felt as if she had fallen into an extremely distorted space.

Here, the sky collapsed and the earth caved in. The scene before them resembled the devastating earthquake of their past lives. All objects lost their original forms and began to tilt and collapse wildly in the direction of Tang Nian.

The surrounding air also became unusually strange, with air currents colliding and entangled, forming visible vortexes. These vortexes continuously squeezed the space around Tang Nian, causing the surrounding atmosphere to gradually distort and deform.

As time went on, the feeling of oppression grew stronger and stronger. Tang Nian felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on her chest, so heavy that it was almost impossible to breathe. She tried desperately to take a deep breath, but found that she could barely breathe.

Gradually, her face turned as pale as paper, and large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.

Even so, Tang Nian gritted her teeth, endured the physical discomfort, and tried her best to remain calm, because she knew that if she gave up now, all her previous efforts would be in vain.

At first, she tried her best to break free from the restraints and run forward with all her might.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Every step seemed so difficult, as if an invisible force was holding her back, but despite this, she refused to give up, gritting her teeth and using all her strength to fight against the resistance.

However, not long after, she found it increasingly difficult to breathe, her chest felt as heavy as if a boulder was pressing down on it, and oxygen became extremely scarce. Finally, she could no longer support her body weight and collapsed to the ground like a tree that had lost its life.

Immediately afterwards, Tang Nian's heart began to pound wildly, like a runaway horse.

"Bang bang bang—"

The powerful sound of her heartbeat echoed in her ears, deafeningly loud.

A wave of dizziness washed over her, causing her to involuntarily close her eyes tightly.

In that brief moment, she clearly felt her heart leap into her throat, as if it were about to grow legs and jump out of her throat.

At the same time, her limbs began to tremble uncontrollably without any warning.

Her originally fair skin gradually turned bluish-purple, as if shrouded in an eerie shadow.
