 Chapter 234: The Revelation of the Magic Circle and the Mystery of the Fantasy Castle

As Su Yao's clear shouts echoed in the air, Lin Yu and Zhao Hao, as if being pulled by an invisible force, stepped into the portal that shone with strange light without hesitation. The door opened slightly, and an unprecedented magical wave suddenly enveloped them, as if they had crossed the boundary of time and space.

"Is this... a dream or reality?" Lin Yu's eyes widened. The scene in front of him was unbelievable. The sky was no longer a single blue, but was covered with colorful clouds. Those clouds seemed to have life. As they slowly moved, giant dragons could be seen soaring and islands floating, forming a magnificent and mysterious picture. The land under his feet was a vast fantasy forest, with exotic flowers and plants competing for beauty, exuding a refreshing fragrance, and all kinds of monsters shuttled through the forest, playing or resting, showing a beautiful picture of harmonious coexistence.

"This is definitely another world!" Su Yao's eyes were shining with excitement. She had never seen such a shocking sight. Every inch of land and every cloud exuded an alluring breath of exploration.

Zhao Hao seemed more cautious. He looked around and whispered, "This place is full of unknowns and dangers. We must always be vigilant."

The three of them stepped into this unknown territory cautiously. They walked along a winding path with colorful flowers on both sides. They were not only beautiful, but also contained faint magical fluctuations, adding a bit of mystery to the forest.

"Look over there!" Su Yao suddenly stopped and pointed to a big tree not far away. The tree was full of crystal clear and colorful fruits, each of which exuded a soft light, as if it contained powerful magical power.

Lin Yu and Zhao Hao took a closer look. These fruits were indeed extraordinary. Not only were they attractive in appearance, but they also exuded an alluring aroma that made people want to taste them. Finally, after confirming that it was safe, the three of them each picked a fruit and took a bite. Suddenly, a sweet juice burst in their mouths, followed by a warm and powerful force, as if countless tiny magic elements were pouring into their bodies, lifting their spirits.

"This fruit... is incredible!" Lin Yu exclaimed, "I feel like my magic power has been improved to an unprecedented level."

Su Yao and Zhao Hao also felt the same way. They smiled at each other and continued their journey of exploration.

As they went deeper into the forest, they came to an open area and saw a majestic castle. The castle was towering into the clouds, and the walls were carved with complex and mysterious runes, exuding an ancient and powerful magical atmosphere. Surrounding the castle was a huge square, where creatures of various shapes and forms gathered. They were either standing or walking, and although they were in different shapes, they seemed to be in an unusually harmonious relationship with each other.

"It seems that our destination is this castle." Su Yao pointed at the castle and said, "But how can we get in?"

The three looked around, trying to find clues to enter the castle. After searching, they found that although there were many creatures living around the castle, there were no obvious guardians. Just when they were at a loss, Su Yao suddenly noticed an unusual footprint near the castle, which seemed to point to a hidden cave.

"Maybe the answer lies in that cave." Su Yao suggested.

The three decided to take a chance and followed the footprints to the entrance of the cave. It was pitch black inside the cave, but they could vaguely see complex runes engraved on the walls. These runes flickered faintly in the darkness, as if telling ancient secrets.

"This place is filled with dangerous atmosphere." Zhao Hao reminded in a low voice, "We must be careful."

The three of them carefully went deeper into the cave, avoiding many dangerous magical creatures along the way. Finally, at the end of the cave, they found a huge stone door. The stone door was also engraved with ancient runes, which seemed to have life and flowed slowly in the darkness.

"The guardian of the castle should be behind this door." Su Yao speculated.

The three began to try to activate the runes on the stone door. They carefully observed the arrangement and combination of the runes, and after some effort, they finally found the correct activation sequence. As the last rune was lit up, the stone door made a deafening roar and slowly opened to both sides.

"We succeeded!" Su Yao shouted excitedly.

Behind the stone gate was a huge hall. In the center of the hall stood a stone platform, on which was placed a giant sword emitting strong magical fluctuations. This giant sword not only had a unique shape, but also contained a frightening power.

"Is this the guardian of the castle?" Lin Yu asked in surprise.

Su Yao shook her head: "No, this is just a trial left by the guardian. We must pass the test of this giant sword before we can see the real guardian."

The three began to study how to activate the giant sword. They found that the giant sword was also engraved with runes, but these runes were more complex and profound than those on the stone door. After some difficult attempts and reasoning, they finally found a way to activate the giant sword. As the runes lit up one by one, the giant sword emitted a dazzling light, and a powerful magical force instantly enveloped the entire hall.

"We did it!" Zhao Hao shouted excitedly.

The power of the giant sword not only made their bodies lighter and stronger, but also brought their understanding of magic to a new level. They knew that they were ready to face the true guardian of the castle.

With this confidence and strength, the three of them set out on their journey to the castle again.
