Yue Yue walked into the sacred room alongside Cang Yuze and Han Soi. The heavy doors closed quietly behind them.
In the center, the purified orb floated gently in the middle of the air. It looked beautiful and magnificent, glowing with soft white and blue swirls inside the crystal.
Cang Yuze looked around carefully but did not see anything wrong. He stepped aside and let Yue Yue pass beside him.
The moment Yue Yue stepped fully inside the room, she stopped suddenly. Her breath hitched.
The orb was indeed beautiful, but crawling all over its glowing surface were countless small black parasites.
Their thin, slimy strands moved slowly as they circled and climbed over the crystal. Some were even inside the orb, wriggling through the cracks.
And it was not just on the orb, the entire room was filled with them. Countless parasites covered the floor, the walls, and even floated in the air like dark dust.
