Hungover, I crossed over to the psychic realm

Lin Yu and Li Qiang were like birds with broken wings imprisoned in the dark abyss. In the long struggle and despair, they exerted all their strength to break free from the demonic shackles of the void realm. With overwhelming fatigue and the ecstasy of surviving a disaster, they rushed out suddenly. Their steps were staggering and chaotic, and the soles of their shoes rubbed against the ground urgently, making a "rustling" sound. Their chests heaved violently as they gasped for breath. Each breath carried the joy of release after a long period of suppression. The excitement was like a torrent bursting through a dam, surging and spreading unreservedly from the depths of their eyes and the slightly trembling tips of their eyebrows. Their faces were filled with the longing for home and the eagerness to embark on the journey back.

This void realm was like a cursed chaotic world, where danger lurked everywhere. Countless encounters with unknown terrifying forces and the long struggle for survival had already exhausted them both physically and mentally. Those eerie lights flickering in the dark, the void cracks that could swallow everything at any moment, and the occasional terrifying roars had all become lingering nightmares in their hearts. Now that they had finally found a glimmer of hope, the eagerness to return home was like a raging fire burning in their chests, making it impossible for them to stop for a moment. They knew that time was the key code to returning home. Every minute and every second was as precious as gold. If they were to delay even slightly, this hard-won opportunity might slip away in an instant. Only by arranging the formation as quickly as possible would there be a chance to open the time-space door leading to their hometown and return to that warm haven.

The two of them walked along a winding and rugged path, their eyes sharp, not missing any corner that might be a suitable place to arrange the formation. They shuttled among the mountains. The steep peaks were like stern guards, silently and indifferently watching their urgency. Those peaks pierced straight into the sky, and the strange rocks on the mountain walls were jagged. When climbing, the sharp rocks tore their clothes, and the pointed edges left streaks of blood on their palms and knees. But they didn't feel the pain at all, focusing only on finding the right place to arrange the formation. Lin Yu and Li Qiang didn't miss any mountain depression and searched carefully. Any place where spiritual energy might gather couldn't escape their eyes. They delved into the secluded valley. The mist pervading the valley added a touch of mystery to it. As they searched in it, they could keenly sense even the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy. The humidity in the valley was very high. The mist was damp and cold, and there was a trace of chill in every breath. The ground under their feet was extremely muddy, and it took a great deal of effort to pull out their feet that were deeply stuck in the mud with each step. When they encountered a deep cave, they stepped in without hesitation. The damp ground and the unknown darkness couldn't stop their steps. The flickering torch in their hands illuminated their firm determination to find a suitable location. A foul smell pervaded the cave, and various dangerous creatures might be lurking there, but they didn't flinch at all. They moved forward cautiously, not missing any possible clue.

However, after searching all the way, reality dealt them a heavy blow. In those places that seemed full of hope, either the spiritual energy was mixed and disorderly, with spiritual energies of various attributes colliding and churning together, like a pot of spilled seasonings, with a mixed taste but useless and unable to be used for the formation at all; or the space was fragile and unstable, like a piece of paper as thin as a cicada's wing. Slightly injecting spiritual energy would trigger a violent shock, and it simply couldn't withstand such a powerful and precise formation as opening a time-space channel. The repeated disappointments made their steps heavier and heavier, and fatigue quietly crept onto their faces. Sweat mixed with dust, leaving streaks of dirt on their faces. But the belief in returning home in their hearts was like a raging fire, burning more and more vigorously, supporting them to keep moving forward.

Until they went through countless hardships, using both hands and feet to climb over steep cliffs and pass through valleys full of thorns, they finally reached the summit of a mountain shrouded in clouds and mist and rarely visited by people. As soon as they set foot on the mountaintop, a wonderful feeling welled up in their hearts, and they instantly realized that this place was different. Looking as far as the eye could see, the clouds and mist on the mountaintop were like a

thin veil, gently lingering, dreamlike, as if isolating the whole world, leaving only this peaceful place. The clouds and mist sometimes rolled and surged, and sometimes slowly drifted away, changing into various wonderful shapes, as if the magical painter of nature was freely splashing ink. It was completely silent all around, with only the wind whistling softly in their ears. The sound of the wind was like a melodious movement played by nature, carrying a trace of ethereal charm, adding a bit of vividness to this silent place. The wind echoed in the valley, making a low and long sound, as if telling the ancient stories of this mountain range.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth pervading the air was pure and rich, just like a clear stream in the mountains without any impurities. A trace of sweetness refreshed the heart. Lin Yu couldn't help but stretch out his hand, as if to grasp this precious spiritual energy. Those wisps of spiritual energy were as if they had life, gently winding around his fingertips, bringing a numb and wonderful touch, as if telling the mystery and peace of this world. Moreover, the space here was extremely stable, as if it were a solid barrier carefully carved by the top craftsman of time. After countless trials of wind and rain, there was not the slightest shake or crack. Every inch of space exuded a calm and reliable atmosphere. There was no doubt that it was the perfect place toshow such a powerful and precise formation.

Lin Yu took a deep breath to calm down his excitement and slowly took out from his arms the ancient stone tablet rubbing that carried countless secrets. The paper of the rubbing had already turned yellow, and there were some slight damages on the edges, as if telling the long years it had experienced. The paper was so fragile that it seemed it would break with a gentle touch, and the characters on it were also a bit blurred. But Lin Yu could still accurately identify them by virtue of his familiarity with it. However, the runes on it still exuded a mysterious and ancient aura. It was the call of power from ancient times, as if telling the world a forgotten history. Lin Yu's hands trembled slightly, a manifestation of the interweaving of excitement and nervousness. His eyes were full of concentration and caution, as if there was only the rubbing in his hand and the world in front of him left in the whole world. According to the records on the rubbing, he slowly squatted down, his movements gentle and slow, as if he was taking care of a rare treasure. He carefully placed the three Spirit Pearls on the key nodes of the formation. These three Spirit Pearls were the treasures they had obtained after going through hardships. Each one contained powerful energy and emitted a soft and mysterious light.

These three Spirit Pearls, each containing huge energy, lay there quietly, yet emitting a soft and mysterious light. The three Spirit Pearls echoed each other, and their lights intertwined and wound around each other, forming a magnificent light and shadow picture scroll, as if constructing an independent and mysterious small world. The energy inside the Spirit Pearls was like a sleeping giant beast, slowly awakened by the power of the formation, making a slight humming sound, as if accumulating strength for the time-space channel that was about to be opened. As the Spirit Pearls were placed, the surrounding air seemed to be dyed with a strange color, becoming more and more solemn and mysterious.

Li Qiang stood aside and also assisted Lin Yu with full concentration. He slowly raised his palms, facing upward. The spiritual energy around his body surged like a turbulent wave, and his clothes fluttered in the agitation of the spiritual energy. His forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and his eyes revealed determination and concentration. The hair in front of his forehead was soaked with sweat and stuck to his face. Under his control, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth around him, as if being pulled by an invisible big hand, continuously converged towards the formation. Those spiritual energies were like agile elves, cheering and happily jumping into the formation. Every time a trace of spiritual energy was integrated, a part of the runes and prohibitions in the formation was activated, emitting a more mysterious and profound light. The runes flickered with a strange luster, as if whispering ancient incantations, and the prohibitions were like layers of invisible barriers, guarding the operation of the formation.

As the spiritual energy continued to be injected, the formation gradually changed. At first, it only emitted a faint light, like the faint dawn before the dawn, hazy and soft, giving people a feeling that hope was about to come. That light was like a trace of hope shining through from the distant sky. Although faint, it was enough to ignite the expectation in their hearts. Then, the light became more and more dazzling, like the scorching sun hanging high. The intense light was so blinding that it was impossible to open one's eyes, as if it were going to dispel all the darkness in the world. At the same time, the surrounding space also began to have slight distortions, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing layers of ripples. The folds of the space were particularly mysterious and eerie under the illumination of the light. The outline of a faint time-space channel slowly emerged in the light and distortion, like an entrance in a dream, exuding a mysterious and alluring atmosphere, as if calling them to step in and return to their long-missed hometown.

Lin Yu and Li Qiang stared wide-eyed, nervously watching every slight change of the formation without blinking. Their foreheads were covered with dense beads of sweat. Beads of sweat as big as soybeans slid down their cheeks and dropped onto the ground beneath their feet, disappearing instantly. The two of them kept forming seals with their hands. Their movements were as smooth as flowing water but also carried a bit of urgency. Every seal formula contained their longing for home and their firm belief. In their eyes, there was both the eager expectation of returning home, that light was like the brightest star in the night sky; and the deep worry about possible accidents, that trace of worry was like a dark cloud hanging over their hearts, lingering. At this moment, they were extremely careful in every movement, for fear of making the slightest mistake, which would lead to all their previous efforts going to waste and the hope of returning home being dashed. They silently prayed in their hearts, hoping that everything would go smoothly and that they could embark on the journey home as soon as possible.
