Legend of Hongmeng Duo

Deep within the secret realm, the expedition team led by Lin Yi and Su Qing traversed dense fog and mazes, finally arriving at a vast square. In the center, an ancient altar stood quietly, a glowing crystal ball hovering above it, emitting a mysterious light. However, just as they were about to approach the altar, a figure slowly emerged from behind it, its form hazy and mysterious in the light.

"Welcome to the center of the secret realm, young cultivators." An old and powerful voice echoed over the square, revealing endless years and wisdom.

Lin Yi and Su Qing immediately became alert. They could sense the powerful aura of this figure; this was a powerful being they had never encountered before. As the figure gradually became clearer, they saw a white-haired old man with a deep glint in his eyes. He wore a simple robe embroidered with intricate runes that emitted a faint glow.

"I am the guardian of this secret realm, and also the last guardian of this secret realm." There was a hint of loneliness and heaviness in the old man's voice.

Lin Yi and Su Qing exchanged a glance. They knew this old man must know the greatest secret of the secret realm. They bowed respectfully to the old man and said, "Senior, we have no intention of disturbing your peace. We simply hope to find some clues about the Hongmeng Pearl."

The old man nodded, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes. "I am impressed by your courage and wisdom. This secret realm is indeed closely connected to the Hongmeng Pearl. I am willing to share everything I know with you."

Su Qing's eyes flashed with anticipation: "Senior, we are willing to listen to your teachings."

The old man slowly recounted the history of the secret realm and the secret of the Hongmeng Pearl. He told them that this secret realm was established by ancient immortal cultivators to protect the Hongmeng Pearl, and that he was the chosen guardian. His mission was to protect this secret realm until one day, a qualified immortal cultivator could inherit the power of the Hongmeng Pearl.

"The Hongmeng Pearl is the source of power in this vast universe! The energy it contains is truly endless. It can not only completely rewrite the predetermined fate of cultivators, but also influence the delicate balance of the entire world." The white-haired, immortal-looking old man said solemnly, with a subtle warning in his voice.

Lin Yi and Su Qing stood there, not daring to breathe, afraid to miss a single word. Their eyes were fixed on the mysterious old man, their ears perked up like two alert rabbits, listening intently to every word he said.

At this moment, their hearts were filled with anxiety and anticipation. They knew full well that the shocking secret about to be revealed was a sharp sword capable of severing all obstacles and forging a new path; yet it was also a double-edged sword that could injure them if they were not careful. It not only brought unprecedented opportunities, allowing them to embark on a path to the pinnacle, but also brought with it challenges as heavy as a mountain, from which even the slightest misstep could lead to irreparable destruction.

Yet, despite the unpredictable and arduous road ahead, Lin Yi and Su Qing showed no sign of retreat. On the contrary, their eyes gleamed with determination and courage. Filled with gratitude, they bowed deeply and respectfully to the elder and said in unison, "Thank you for your trust, Senior! We will live up to your trust and do our utmost to protect this Hongmeng Pearl." Though their words were light, they carried immense weight.

Hearing this, the old man nodded slightly in approval. His already piercing eyes now blazed like burning torches, emitting a commanding aura that threatened to pierce through the very fabric of their minds. He stared intently at Lin Yi and Su Qing, his utterly serious expression seeming to penetrate their bodies, glimpsing their innermost thoughts.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi and Su Qing nodded solemnly in agreement without hesitation. They declared in unison that they would follow the instructions and use the Hongmeng Pearl's immense power to safeguard world peace, rather than using it for selfish ends.

After receiving a positive response, the old man nodded slightly in satisfaction. Then, under his careful guidance, the expedition team consisting of Lin Yi and others officially embarked on a new journey of cultivation, embarking on a journey of exploration filled with unknowns and dangers.

Everyone eagerly studied the profound cultivation techniques personally taught by the elder, immersing themselves in them and intently grasping the unfathomable power of the Hongmeng Pearl. As time passed, everyone's cultivation strength improved dramatically, a truly astonishing improvement.
