Zhao Ming tightly grasped my hand and said, "Lin Xiaoyue, we need to find the shadow's weakness, or we'll both be done for here." 0
"Right," I quickly replied. 0
We huddled closely together, our eyes wide open, constantly alert to our surroundings. 0
The shadow always avoided the light. 0
Zhao Ming took out his phone and shone the flashlight towards the shadow. 0
The shadow let out a scream and hurriedly retreated. 0
Afraid of the light? 0
I was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized that a shadow couldn't possibly be afraid of light. 0
Zhao Ming also sensed something was off and muttered, "How could a shadow be afraid of darkness?" 0
"How would I know?" 0
"Forget about that for now; let's see if we can find its weakness." 0
"Okay." 0
We began rummaging through the temple, leaving no corner or stone tablet unchecked. 0
We were hoping to find its weakness. 0
Suddenly, an invisible force struck us from behind. 0
Zhao Ming and I were knocked to the ground by this force. 0
The shadow's power erupted instantly, like a black tornado that turned the entire temple upside down. 0
Zhao Ming and I were thrown into the air and crashed hard against the wall. 0
"Zhao Ming!" 0
I looked at him in terror. 0
The shadow silently formed a massive black sphere in front of us, with a soft glow flickering at its center, as if it concealed some mysterious energy. 0
Seeing this scene, my voice carried a hint of surprise. 0
"Zhao Ming, look over there." 0
 
 
Hearing my words, Zhao Ming immediately looked in the direction I was pointing, a look of surprise on his face. 0
"We should be careful." 0
We cautiously approached the sphere, and just then, a strong light suddenly erupted from its center, a powerful force knocking us to the ground, nearly causing us to fall. 0
I quickly steadied myself and looked up at the light. 0
It turned out that the light was emanating from the center of the sphere, where there was a glowing stone. 0
I slowly walked closer, extending my hands to gently touch the glowing stone. 0
The moment my hand made contact with the stone, the light instantly became even more dazzling. 0
I felt an unprecedented sense of tranquility and peace. 0
"Lin Xiaoyue, your hand..." Zhao Ming suddenly shouted loudly. 0
I looked down and found that the light on my hand was reflecting off the glowing stone. 0
"What on earth is happening?" I murmured softly. 0
The light gradually faded, and shadows began to rush toward me again. 0
I instinctively dodged. 0
The shadow failed to attack me and instead moved toward the interior of the temple. 0
"Quick, chase it!" Zhao Ming shouted loudly. 0
We followed closely behind, weaving through the ancient temple. 0
The shadow stopped in front of a wall and then vanished without a trace. 0
I carefully examined the wall and noticed it was inscribed with some text. 0
"What is this?" Zhao Ming asked curiously. 0
I shook my head and reached out to touch the text. 0
"I'm not sure either." 0
"But maybe this is the key to controlling the shadows." 0
 
 
"Please step aside a little, let me give it a try." 0
I took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the fear and unease within me, focusing all my thoughts. 0
I attempted to recall the scene when I made the contract with the shadow, but my mind was blank. 0
I closed my eyes and silently murmured, "Shadow, come back." 0
Suddenly, a voice echoed in my mind. 0
"Are you really planning to abandon me?" 0
