The pathway stretched beyond their expectations, and even at their rapid pace, it consumed three relentless days before they reached the elemental barrier that guarded the entrance to Solitude.
As they approached, Dong Rui's eyes widened in awe. "Fascinating!"
At the heart of Frostfell lay a surreal sight - a vast expanse of molten lava, juxtaposed against a frigid wasteland. Miraculously, neither the lava's scorching flames nor the frost's icy grip encroached upon each other, as if suspended in an ethereal balance. The boundaries between these opposing elements were so sharply defined that it defied all logical comprehension.
"Brother Liang, are you ready?" Dong Rui's expression grew solemn. "Once we cross this barrier, we shall enter Solitude."
Liang hesitated for a moment before nodding, he stepped forward and breached the elemental barrier without hesitation.
Dong Rui followed suit, a faint smile playing upon her lips.
