THE HIDDEN PASSAGE
Julian moved through the narrow passage.The walls were old and damp, covered with faint symbols.Behind him, the footsteps of the two men echoed through the temple.They were getting closer.Julian increased his pace.The passage suddenly divided into two paths.He stopped.Both paths looked identical.Julian closed his eyes and released his spiritual sense.The left path contained nothing.The right path carried a faint trace of spiritual energy.He turned right.After several minutes, the passage opened into a small chamber.Julian stepped inside.There was a stone table in the center.On it sat several old books.Julian approached them.Most were written in a language he didn't recognize.But one book was different.Its cover carried the same symbol from his father's notebook.Julian opened it.The first page contained a simple sentence.The gate has existed for thousands of years.He turned the page.It cannot be destroyed. It can only be sealed.Julian's eyes narrowed.So that w
THE OLD TEMPLE
The next morning, Julian left the house early.The city was already busy.Cars filled the roads while students hurried toward the university.Julian walked quietly through the crowd, his mind focused on the message in his father's notebook.Find the old temple.He had spent most of the night thinking about it.There were no details about its location.Only the strange symbol beneath the message.Julian stopped near a quiet street and looked around.He released his spiritual sense.Faint spiritual energy drifted through the city.Most of it was weak.But one direction felt different.Julian turned toward the outskirts.There.A small trace of the same energy he had felt beneath the abandoned building.He followed it.After nearly an hour, the busy streets disappeared.The buildings became fewer.Trees covered both sides of the road.Eventually, Julian reached an old path hidden behind thick bushes.He stopped.A broken stone stood beside the path.The same symbol from his father's note
THE FATHER'S SECRET
Julian returned home before nightfall.The house was quiet.Sarah was in the kitchen preparing dinner while Lily sat at the dining table, scrolling through her phone.“You're back,” Sarah said.Julian nodded.“Yeah.”He forced himself to remain calm.His mind was still inside the underground chamber.The black stone.The broken chains.His father's warning.Never let him find the gate.Julian went upstairs.Once inside his room, he closed the door and sat on the edge of the bed.He needed answers.His father's disappearance had always been strange.But now Julian knew it was connected to something far bigger.He looked around Ethan's room.Everything appeared ordinary.Then his eyes landed on the old wooden desk.It had belonged to Ethan's father.Julian walked toward it.He opened the drawers one by one.Nothing.He checked underneath the desk.Still nothing.Then his fingers touched something unusual.A small mark had been carved beneath the desk.Julian paused.He pressed it.Click
THE THING BENEATH
The floor cracked open.Julian stepped back as dust filled the room.Beneath the broken floor was a narrow staircase leading into darkness.The scarred man stared at it.“We need to leave.”Julian looked at him.“You know what's down there.”The man remained silent.“My father,” Julian said.The man's expression changed.“He found this place years ago.”Julian's eyes narrowed.“What did he find?”“I don't know exactly. But he spent a long time studying it before sealing the place.”“And you helped him?”The man nodded.“He told me never to disturb the formation.”Julian looked down the staircase.“Then why did it activate?”The man had no answer.Julian stepped onto the first stair.“Wait.”Julian stopped.The scarred man looked at him seriously.“You don't know what you're walking into.”Julian glanced back.“Neither do you.”Then he continued downward.The scarred man followed.The staircase was cold and silent.Ancient symbols covered the walls, almost hidden beneath years of dust.
THE ABANDONED BUILDING
The next morning, Julian left the house early.The streets were already beginning to fill with people.Cars moved through the busy roads, students hurried toward school, and shops slowly opened their doors.To everyone else, it was an ordinary morning.To Julian, the city felt different.He could sense faint traces of spiritual energy scattered throughout the streets.Most people couldn't feel it.But he could.His eyes remained calm as he walked toward the abandoned building.After several minutes, he finally reached it.The building stood between two older shops, its walls stained from years of neglect.Broken windows stared down at the street.The entrance was covered with dust.Julian stopped outside.He could feel it.The same formation.The spiritual energy beneath the building was much stronger than before."Someone doesn't want people finding this place."He pushed the door open.Creak.The sound echoed through the empty building.Dust floated through the air.Julian stepped i
THE HIDDEN ENEMY
Julian returned home before sunrise.The house was quiet.He closed the front door carefully and looked toward the staircase.Everyone was still asleep.For a moment, he stood there thinking about the stranger.Your father was right.Those words wouldn't leave his mind.Julian went upstairs and entered his room.He locked the door.Then he placed the small black metal piece on his desk beside the spirit jade.The symbols on both objects were identical.That wasn't a coincidence.Julian sat down and examined them carefully.The metal piece contained almost no spiritual energy, yet the symbol itself felt ancient.He touched it.A faint warmth spread across his fingertip.Suddenly, the spirit jade reacted.Its silver light flickered.Julian immediately pulled his hand away.The two objects began glowing at the same time.Then a thin line of light appeared between them.Julian stared.A pattern slowly formed on the desk.It looked like a map.His eyes narrowed.The pattern showed several
