   This was a world filled with intense light. Lin Yi instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes from the blinding sunlight and tried to open them to see his surroundings and escape. But no matter how hard he tried to explore, the world remained omnipresent in its light; it seemed to have no room for anything else. Time moved slowly along the horizon, each minute and second feeling incredibly long, as if a whole month had passed, or even a whole year. This feeling was like being in purgatory, painful and unbearable. Prolonged exposure to the intense light was gradually eroding and dissolving Lin Yi's brain, nerves, and even body. He felt his life force draining away, as if he were about to fall into an abyss. Just when Lin Yi felt powerless to resist fate, suddenly, a powerful force swept in like a torrent. In Lin Yi's sensory world, an enormous pillar of light, carrying a mysterious artifact shrouded in chaotic mist, hurtled towards him at an astonishing speed from the distant horizon. "Ah—!" Lin Yi let out a piercing scream that echoed through the sky. Awakened from the strange dream within the light and shadow space, Lin Yi sat bolt upright in bed, slapping his forehead and feeling dizzy. "What's wrong, Xiao Yi? What happened?"
