Chapter 1497: The Fourth Challenge(19)
Since there was nothing other than him and the sound notes in the chamber, either the sound notes were material or the item was hidden by them.
Since his body had somewhat recovered vision, he didn’t try to capture the sound notes right away but waited for himself to recover.
Several hours passed in the blink of an eye, and Huo Jinglin’s body had recovered by half at the time. He wanted to further heal but found himself unable to, as that was the limit approved by the chamber.
Huo Jinglin stood up from his meditation, causing the sound notes to run further away. He could see that they were quicker than him.
To capture them, he could only attempt and attempt since he had no item that could help him. Even though the sound notes were material, the wind released by Huo Jinglin didn’t affect them.

After a while, Huo Jinglin finally captured a sound note, and as soon as his hands touched it, a melody rang in his heart. At first, Huo Jinglin was enjoying it but suddenly frowned. His body was slowly disappearing from below and turning into the sound notes.
Huo Jinglin had no choice but to let go of the note, and after a few minutes, his body returned to its usual form. Since directly touching the note caused that situation, Huo Jinglin needed to look at the situation differently.
Huo Jinglin had found that the challenge was difficult, but it wasn’t impossible to complete. So, he had ways to complete it, and he only needed to find that way.
Huo Jinglin ignored the sound notes after that and instead focused on the chamber. It was a large chamber that was spread across hundreds of meters. Huo Jinglin decided to start from where the highest density of the sound notes was present.
Time flew by, and since there was no way for Huo Jinglin to judge the distinction, he wasn’t aware of how long had passed since he had appeared inside the chamber.
At that moment, he was sleeping on the ground since his body had reached his physical limit. Once he tried to give up on capturing the sound notes, the sound notes began to willingly come to him.
And they wouldn’t leave, forcing Huo Jinglin to squat them away. From there, he also found that whenever any sound note came into contact with him, he would reach further closer to exhaustion. If not for the sound notes, Huo Jinglin wouldn’t have needed to rest at all before finding everything required in the chamber.
After an unknown amount of time, Huo Jinglin woke up and returned to his duty. As soon as he woke up, the sound notes returned and jumped on him, forcing him to shoo them away.
Huo Jinglin couldn’t be overbearing with the notes since they could release a melody affecting his physical or mental condition.
After what seemed like years, Huo Jinglin finally saw a change in the chamber. Ahead of him, there was a distinct pattern hidden in the tone of the chamber.
It was so hidden that Huo Jinglin only found it in his seventh search at the same spot. He immediately tried to touch the symbol. His touch seemed to be the key to activating the next step.
The next moment, a vortex appeared out of nowhere and began to devour all the sound notes. They tried to run away from it but were unable to.
As the vortex devoured the sound notes, tears began to fall across Huo Jinglin’s cheeks. He could feel the pain of the sound notes through the melody released by them before getting absorbed. He even thought of destroying the vortex so that the sound notes could be freed.
Fortunately for him, he woke up before making any such stupid move, and after a while, only he and the vortex were left in the chamber.
Huo Jinglin stayed there for a while, waiting for the next step, but the vortex remained there, waiting for him. He understood what it wanted, so without wasting any time, he also walked into the vortex.
The next moment, Huo Jinglin found himself in a dark environment with a serene melody ringing in the area. A sense of danger engulfed his heart, and his eyes started to turn heavy.
Huo Jinglin could sense that if he fell asleep, a terrible fate would befall him, so he forcefully persevered through the melody and finally succeeded in staying conscious until its disappearance.
Even light seemed to be afraid of the melody, so it immediately appeared after it stopped.
Huo Jinglin couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. Ahead of him, there was an altar, and at the top of it, there was a locked box.
Above the locked box, the sound notes were dancing with joy as if they had returned to their source. Huo Jinglin also smiled since that was the item he had come to the labyrinth for.
He immediately walked to the altar and picked up the box. He wanted to see what was inside the lock, but he stopped himself before his curiosity got the better of him.
Opening the lock was akin to choosing the item for himself, and since Huo Jinglin had chosen to give it to the prince, he persevered through it.
The completion of the challenge screen hadn’t appeared since the last step was still left, but before that, he needed to walk to the exit point of the labyrinth and wouldn’t be transferred outside, unlike when he entered.
Since the fifty percent recovery limit was no longer present, Huo Jinglin sat down in a meditative posture and waited for his body to recover. The road with the water was extremely dangerous, so he needed to be at his peak to face it.
Hours passed, and after Huo Jinglin felt his physical condition was at its peak, he decided to start his return journey.
Atop the altar, the familiar vortex had appeared. Huo Jinglin stepped into it, and the next moment, Huo Jinglin found himself at the door of the chamber. He took a deep breath and stepped forward.
