"Did any of you notice," Qing Shuang suddenly said, "that the dagger in his hand, though it looks like a part of the Time Blade, seems somewhat different."
Hong Ling frowned, "You mean, it might not be a real fragment of the Time Blade?"
"No," Luo Chen interjected, "It is indeed a fragment, but perhaps just a small portion. The Time Blade is a legendary Divine Artifact, its fragments should possess greater power. The dagger in that mysterious figure's hand, although emitting the power of time, seems to be suppressed by some force."
They continued discussing until nightfall, deciding to rest in a dense forest.
They took turns keeping watch to guard against any unforeseen events.
The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight filtered through the treetops, Luo Chen, Qing Shuang, and Hong Ling continued their journey.
After days of trekking, they finally arrived at the Chamber of Myriad Arts.
