In fact, it was difficult to describe darkness with words like "sprinkling". In the minds of all living beings in the world, darkness was the opposite of light. Darkness was invisible, and darkness was always outside of light.
Light could be sprinkled, and it was something that our eyes could see. Sunlight, moonlight, starlight, or other kinds of light, such as the light of candlelight, the light of swords, the faint light of the sky, as long as it was light, we could see it. Every time we saw light sprinkling down in the darkness, every time the night passed and morning came, and the first light of dawn appeared, we would always feel touched.
But darkness was different. No one had ever seen it sprinkling down. Everyone knew that when there was light, darkness would retreat, it would avoid, and it would hide outside of the light.
At least before today, in Lu Chen's memory, this was what he thought. He had never even thought about why it was like this, and he had never thought about whether there was any reason or reason behind it.
Light and darkness were natural existences in the world. From birth to death, they were never absent. They quietly and intimately accompanied everyone's life.
This was a matter of course, a matter of course!
So why did he question it?
Wasn't it natural for darkness to avoid light?
Until now.
Lu Chen looked at the crack in the door in front of him. Slowly, slowly, his eyes widened. He didn't see anything terrifying. He only saw a beam of darkness coming in from behind the door, from the crack in the door.
Then the darkness seemed to become a beam of light, just like the impression he had of light in his memory. Like a beam of light, it shone in.
There was originally some light in this ancient tree hole, but it seemed a bit timid and avoided this door.
The darkness swept through the air and gently sprinkled on the ground, leaving a shadow in front of Lu Chen, right beside his feet.
…
The Black Dog's mouth was still biting on the handle of the tree door, but it seemed to have realized that there might be something strange behind the door. It did not release its mouth, but it raised its head and glanced at Lu Chen. Lu Chen's eyes were completely fixed on the strange darkness. He was shocked that this darkness could actually repel the light. It completely overturned the impression in his mind, and for a moment, he did not notice Atsu.
Atsu glanced at the dark shadow not far away and felt that it was indeed a little strange. However, it seemed that it was just strange. At least, Atsu did not sense any dangerous aura from it.
The dark "light" penetrated in. It was dark and strange, but it did not split the ground, nor did it shake the mountains. There was no collapse of heaven and earth. Everything in the tree hole was normal. It was so quiet as if nothing had happened.
He seemed to be fine?
Even Lu Chen seemed to be in a daze, without any reaction.
Atsu tilted its head and thought carefully for a while. It glanced at the mysterious and strange darkness behind the door. It was the curiosity of a passionate, fearless black dog that was very interested in the unknown world. It grunted, as if it was complaining, but also as if it was cheering itself up. Then, it stomped its feet and shook its head.
Lu Chen immediately sensed that something was amiss. He immediately reacted and blurted out, "Wait …"
Before his voice trailed off, the agile black dog had already opened the strange and unpredictable door.
The door did not make any sound, such as the creaking sound of years of disrepair, or the rumbling sound of heavy friction. It just quietly opened with Atsu's movements.
Then, as if an omnipresent god in the unseen world suddenly woke up and looked over from a distant place, an endless darkness suddenly poured down from the boundless void like a tidal wave. After a soundless thunderclap that seemed to roar in one's mind, the darkness surged in from behind the door like a tidal wave.
It swallowed everything!
…
There was the sound of breathing in the darkness. It was heavy and urgent. Standing in the surging darkness, one's first feeling was that one had completely lost control of their body. Their vision suddenly turned black, and then the whole world suddenly collapsed, as if they had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
All the tragedies that could happen in the world, all the most terrifying things that one could imagine in one's mind, under the stimulation of the darkness, instantly rushed into one's mind. His heart was stuffy and his head hurt. At that moment, he felt like he was about to explode.
Lu Chen even felt that there was a very important string in his head. It was suddenly stretched to the extreme, and it felt like it was about to snap.
Of course, it was an indescribable illusion. In his complicated and dangerous past, in some unbearable days, he had even seen with his own eyes what was inside human skulls. He had seen with his own eyes the miserable state of human skulls being split open.
He knew that there was no such string in a human's head, but for some reason, Lu Chen clearly felt that if this string really snapped in his senses, then he would definitely be finished.
Perhaps he wouldn't die, but Lu Chen felt that what awaited him would be a fate more terrifying than death.
This string, cannot be broken!
He immediately reacted. In the darkness, in a situation where he couldn't see anything, when he couldn't even completely control his own body, he let out a light snort. In an instant, a dark flame ignited in his body. With an unprecedented wild speed, he didn't even care about the damage to his meridians and meridians. Almost in an instant, he was pushed to the maximum extent that he could control, and then it spread throughout his body.
With a bang, the black flame shot out from every inch of Lu Chen's skin. In the darkness, Lu Chen became a burning man. His clothes were instantly burned to ashes, and everything returned to his most primitive state.
The black flame was like an evil dragon, using his body as fuel, burning wildly. But at the same time, the black flame also separated his body from the sudden darkness around him, forming a wall of black flame outside his body.
"Phew …"
A deep and distant breathing sound came from the depths of the black flame. Lu Chen felt his own body bit by bit, feeling that he was once again a person. Even the taut and invisible string in his mind, under the burning of the black flame, gradually relaxed, retreating from the edge of collapse.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye, but to Lu Chen, it felt like an extremely long time had passed. He breathed a sigh of relief, and subconsciously opened his eyes to look around.
He only saw darkness, endless darkness. Even the tree hole he was originally in had disappeared. Suddenly, as if he had sensed something, he suddenly raised his head, and then he was stunned.
Above his head, in the depths of the darkness, suddenly appeared a huge eye. It was countless times larger than his body, as if a huge eye that covered the entire sky was staring at him.
Lu Chen held his breath. At that moment, the memories in his mind were boiling. Suddenly, he felt that it was a little familiar, as if he had seen this eye somewhere before …
