The Eternal Bliss

The Seer noticed Wei Feng's dazed expression and chuckled softly.

"Take some time to ponder on what I've said, young one. The road ahead of you will be based off your decisions, knowledge and understanding will be your greatest weapons."

With that, the Seer stood up and disappeared into the shadows, leaving Wei Feng alone with his thoughts and the flickering campfire.

Wei Feng sat there for a while, his mind racing with thoughts about the Dark Lord and the entity that had guided him to the Seer. He couldn't help but wonder what he could do to clean up his mess before leaving "Danny's Circus".

As he sat there lost in thought, Wei Feng suddenly heard a soft whisper in his ear. He turned around, but no one was there.

The whisper seemed to come from within his own mind, and it repeated a single phrase over and over again: "The key is the key."

Wei Feng furrowed his brow in confusion, wondering what the voice could mean. Was it a message from the entity that had led him here? Or was it something else entirely?

Wei Feng sat there, lost in thought, trying to decipher the meaning behind the message. He replayed the events of his journey in his mind, searching for any clues that could help him understand the message "The key is the key."

As he sat there, a memory suddenly came to him. He remembered about the crystal in the collapsed room. If his memory served him right, he had tucked in the crystal into his pocket before he fleed to the cavern.

Wei Feng quickly reached into his pocket and pulled out the crystal. As he examined it closely, he noticed that there was a small key in the center of the crystal. Could this be the key that the message was referring to?

Without hesitation, Wei Feng struck the ground with the crystal to pry it open.

When the key was finally freed from the crystal, a ragged small piece of paper glided in the air and right onto Wei Feng's face.

Wei Feng ripped the paper off his face and read it.

"The Eternal Bliss"

"Preparation: The drug is made using a crystal called Bliss Quartz, which is harvested and processed into a powdered extract. The extract then undergoes complex alchemical procedures to make it more potent and safe to consume. The final product is a liquid solution that is mixed with a herb called Dreamweaver. When taken, the drug gradually induces a feeling of calmness and tranquility."

"Effect: puts consumer to eternal sleep"

"Cures: none"

Below the paper was a photo of a crystal, one which looked exactly the same as the crystal Wei Feng smashed the ground with and a herb Wei Feng had seen somewhere around the cavern.

A idea suddenly appeared in Wei Feng's head. What if he fed the Eternal Bliss to the creature? Since there was no cure, it should be able to supress the creature.

Wei Feng began to retrace his memories to where the Dreamweaver was located at.

Wei Feng searched through his memories, trying to recall where he had seen the Dreamweaver herb. After a few minutes, he finally remembered that it was growing in a hidden corner of the cavern, near the entrance.

With a newfound sense of determination, Wei Feng quickly gathered the piece of paper, the key, remains and fragments of the broken Bliss Quartz and set off towards the cavern.

As he made his way towards to the hidden corner of the carvern, Wei Feng felt a sense of anxiousness wash over him.

Eventually, he found the Dreamweaver growing in a small patch of soil.

Wei Feng carefully plucked the herb from the ground and tucked it into his bag. With the herb in hand, he knew that he was one step closer to finding a way to suppress the creature and escaping "Danny's Circus".

Wei Feng pulled out the paper. The first step was to process the Bliss Quartz into powdered extract. So, Wei Feng first grinded the remains and fragments of the Bliss Quartz then read the next step: perform complex alchemical procedures to make it more potent and safe to consume.

Wei Feng took a deep breath and focused his mind on the complex alchemical procedures that he had read about in various books. He knew that this would not be an easy task, but he was determined to do whatever it takes to save himself and escape from the "Danny's Circus".

With steady hands, Wei Feng began to perform the alchemical procedures, carefully mixing and heating the powdered extract with various ingredients.

Hours passed as Wei Feng worked tirelessly, his mind completely focused on the task at hand. He followed the instructions on the paper meticulously, making sure not to miss a single step.

Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, he finished the final step of the alchemical procedures.

Wei Feng stared down at the liquid solution in front of him, his heart pounding in his chest. He knew that this was it—the key to suppressing the creature and escaping from "Danny's Circus".

With a trembling hand, Wei Feng mixed the Dreamweaver herb into the solution. As he stirred the mixture, he couldn't help but feel a sense of self accomplishment.
