Farmer Girl Reborn: I Play the Pig and Eat the Tiger in the World of Immortal Cultivation

The golden dragon's halberd collided violently with the spirit shadow's sharp claws, making a sharp sound of metal clashing.

Beads of sweat oozed out of Nong Jin's forehead. The attack of this spirit shadow was extremely swift and powerful. Even though he was the Immortal Emperor, he felt a little tired.

"Brother Jin, be careful!" Yan Yue shouted nervously from the side. She looked weak and helpless, clutching the corner of her clothes tightly, as if she would faint from the tense battle at any time.

Lan Xing muttered something, and soft white light enveloped everyone, resisting the invasion of the cold air in the valley.

"This spirit shadow is deeply affected by the evil spirit, and my power of purification can only barely resist it. Everyone must be careful!" Her tone was solemn, and it was obvious that she was very afraid of this spirit shadow.

Hong Gang waved his giant axe and helped Nong Jin to resist Lingying's attacks from time to time, but his strength was obviously inferior to Nong Jin, and he was almost hit by Lingying several times.

"This beast is so powerful! I'm afraid we can't hold on for long!" he shouted roughly, with a hint of despair in his tone.

Elder Zhao was hiding behind a huge rock, his face pale and trembling.

He originally wanted to seize the treasure during the chaos, but he didn't expect to encounter such a powerful monster. Now he just wants to save his life.

"Your Majesty the Immortal Emperor has extraordinary powers and will definitely be able to subdue this monster! We just need to wait for good news!" He shouted loudly, trying to cover up his inner fear with flattery.

Gongsun Yu watched coldly, and when he saw that the attack had been going on for a long time without success, a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He slowly took out a black skull from his arms. Two clusters of green flames were burning in the eye sockets of the skull, emitting a heart-pounding evil aura.

"Since you don't want to accept my toast, don't blame me for being rude!" he said sinisterly.

"What is this?" Hong Gang couldn't help but exclaimed when he felt the powerful pressure emanating from the skull.

"A magic weapon that will make you go without return!" Gongsun Yu said in a grim tone, injecting spiritual power into the skull.

The black skull let out an ear-piercing scream, and the dark green flames suddenly surged. A powerful evil force swept over, making it difficult for everyone to breathe.

Nong Jin and Hong Gang both felt suffocated, and the circulation of their spiritual power became sluggish.

Yan Yue's face turned even paler. She felt that her spiritual power was being slowly eroded by this evil force.

"Oh no! The power of this magic weapon is too strong!" Lan Xing exclaimed. Her purifying power seemed so powerless in front of this evil force.

Gongsun Yu looked at the horrified faces of the crowd and laughed triumphantly. "Are you scared now? Too late! You'll all die here!" He raised the skull high, ready to deliver a fatal blow...

The black skull's screams stopped abruptly, and the dark green flame flickered violently, like a candle swaying in the wind, which could go out at any time.

Yan Yue keenly noticed that Gongsun Yu's face turned pale, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his breathing became rapid.

"The weakness of this magic weapon is that it consumes a lot of spiritual power!" Yan Yue's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.

In the eyes of others, she still looked weak, but these words were like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's hearts.

Lan Xing immediately understood. She no longer tried to use the power of purification to fight against the evil force. Instead, she concentrated her power and transformed it into sharp white lights, piercing Gongsun Yu's acupuncture points all over his body.

These acupoints are the key nodes for the circulation of spiritual power. Once they are disturbed, Gongsun Yu's control over the magic weapon will be flawed.

"Ah!" Gongsun Yu groaned, his face turned even paler, and the dark green flame on the skull also dimmed a little.

He didn't expect that this seemingly weak woman could see through the weakness of the magic weapon at a glance, and he didn't expect that she could command others to attack him so accurately.

Nong Jin and Hong Gang seized the opportunity and launched a fierce attack at the same time.

The golden dragon halberd, with dazzling golden light, slammed heavily into the skull like a roaring dragon.

Hong Gang's giant axe also carried the force of splitting mountains and splitting rocks as it chopped towards Gongsun Yu's chest.

"Crack!" With a crisp sound, the black skull cracked into several cracks, and the dark green flame was completely extinguished.

Gongsun Yu spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily to the ground.

"Catch him!" Nong Jin gave an order, and everyone rushed forward and subdued all of Gongsun Yu's men.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Gongsun Yu's eyes flashed with resentment, and then he took advantage of the chaos to flee.

Without the suppression of evil forces, the spirit shadow is no longer so difficult to deal with.

Yan Yue directed everyone to skillfully utilize the terrain and spiritual shadows, and finally easily broke its protection.

They continued to go deeper into the ruins, passed through a long and narrow passage, and came to a spacious hall.

In the center of the hall, a jade box emitting a soft light lay there quietly.

"The treasure is right in front of us!" Elder Zhao shouted excitedly and rushed forward first.

However, just as he was about to touch the jade box, the stone door of the hall suddenly closed slowly, and a powerful pressure surged from all directions, enveloping everyone.

"What's going on?" Hong Gang exclaimed. He felt as if his body was being pressed down by a mountain and he couldn't move.

Yan Yue's expression also became solemn. She felt that this pressure contained an ancient and mysterious power that was far beyond their ability to contend with.

"It seems that the real test has just begun..." Yan Yue said in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the slowly closing stone door.

The light from the jade box grew brighter and brighter, almost illuminating the entire hall.

Although Elder Zhao was suppressed by the pressure, he still stretched out his hand, trembling as he tried to touch the jade box.

At this moment, Yan Yue moved.

She flashed like a wisp of smoke, passed by everyone, and came to the jade box first.

She was not in a hurry to open the jade box, but stretched out her slender hand and gently stroked the surface of the jade box.

A warm breath came from the jade box and flowed into her body, making her feel comfortable.

"Is this... the breath of life?" Yan Yue's heart moved. She felt that this jade box contained not only treasures, but also a powerful vitality.

Taking a deep breath, Yan Yue slowly opened the jade box.

In an instant, a brilliant golden light burst out from the jade box, illuminating the entire ruins.

In the golden light, a crystal clear spiritual herb lay there quietly, emitting rich spiritual energy.

"It's the Nine-Turn Resurrection Grass!" Elder Zhao exclaimed, his eyes full of greed.

The Nine-Turn Resurrection Grass is a legendary medicine that can bring the dead back to life. Even if you are seriously injured, you can recover quickly by taking a leaf.

Yan Yue carefully put the Nine-Turn Resurrection Grass into his pocket, a faint smile appearing on his face.

"We succeeded!" Hong Gang shouted excitedly, and the pressure on him was relieved a lot.

Everyone cheered. They had gone through many dangers in the ruins and finally got the treasure they had dreamed of.

The joint efforts and dedication during this period have deepened the relationship between them.

Lan Xing walked to Yan Yue and gently held her hand, his eyes full of gratitude and admiration.

"Yan Yue, thank you." Lan Xing said sincerely, "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be here."

Yan Yue smiled slightly and shook Lan Xing's hand in return. Nong Jin walked over to Yan Yue and gently took her into his arms, his eyes full of tenderness and love.

"I'm glad you're okay." Nong Jin whispered, with a hint of fear in his tone.

Yan Yue leaned in Nong Jin's arms, feeling the warmth coming from him, her heart filled with happiness and security.

However, just as everyone was immersed in joy, something strange happened.

When they were about to leave the ruins, they found that the entrance to the ruins had been blocked by a powerful force at some point.

On the surrounding stone walls, some strange runes appeared, flashing with dark light.

"What's going on?" Hong Gang exclaimed. He tried to attack the stone gate with force, but found that he couldn't shake it at all.

This force was more powerful than any danger they had encountered before. It seemed to come from ancient gods, full of majesty and irresistible power.

Yan Yue's expression also became solemn. She felt that this power contained an ancient and mysterious aura, which made her feel a little palpitated.

"What...what on earth is this?" Elder Zhao's voice trembled, his eyes filled with fear.

Everyone looked at each other, their hearts filled with confusion and anxiety.

They don't know where this power comes from. Is it the self-protection mechanism of the ruins, or are there new enemies waiting for them?

"It seems that we are happy too early..." Nong Jin said in a deep voice, staring at the flashing runes and holding Yan Yue's hand tightly.

Yan Yue also felt the power coming from her hands. She raised her head and looked at Nong Jin's determined eyes, and her heart calmed down a little.

"No matter what it is, we must face it together." Yan Yue said firmly.

At this moment, the runes on the stone wall suddenly glowed brightly, and an even more powerful force surged out from the runes, enveloping everyone...

"Be careful!" Nong Jin protected Yan Yue behind him and watched the changes around him vigilantly.

A suffocating sense of oppression permeated the air...

The rune's light suddenly increased, and a powerful force pushed everyone back.

Nong Jin protected Yan Yue behind him, and golden spiritual power surged around him, forming a barrier to resist this invisible pressure.

Lan Xing took out an ancient bronze mirror, which emitted a soft light, dispelling the uneasiness in the air.

Hong Gang held a huge axe and looked around vigilantly, ready to deal with any sudden danger at any time.

Elder Zhao's face turned pale, and he trembled as he asked, "What kind of power is this? Could it be the guardian deity of the ruins?"

"Not like it." Yan Yue carefully felt the power, frowning, "There's a hint of evil in this power, which is incompatible with the spiritual energy of the ruins itself." She remembered that when she had fought with Gongsun Yu before, a similar aura had appeared on the other party, but it was much weaker at that time.

"Could it be Gongsun Yu?" Hong Gang speculated, "Does he have any other tricks up his sleeve?"

"Impossible," Nong Jin rejected it. "Gongsun Yu has been severely injured by me. Even if he is still alive, he cannot possess such a powerful force."

Just as everyone was puzzled, the runes on the stone wall suddenly stopped flashing and the light gradually dimmed.

The force blocking the entrance to the ruins also disappeared.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked around vigilantly.

"It seems that this power is not aimed at us." Lan Xing said, and the bronze mirror in her hand stopped emitting light.

"But we can't let our guard down." Nong Jin said solemnly, "We must leave here as soon as possible."

Everyone nodded, not daring to stop for even a moment, and quickly walked towards the entrance of the ruins.

However, just as they were about to step out of the ruins, an even colder aura came from behind them.

Yan Yue turned around suddenly and saw a black figure flash by and disappear into the depths of the ruins.

The figure was moving so fast that everyone could only see a vague outline and could not recognize its identity.

"Who is it?" Hong Gang asked vigilantly, gripping the giant axe in his hand tightly.

Yan Yue's face was solemn. She felt that the cold aura was exactly the same as the power that had sealed the ruins before, only it was more hidden and more evil.

"I'm afraid... the troubles we're facing have just begun." Yan Yue said in a deep voice.

Nong Jin held Yan Yue's hand tightly, a cold light flashing in his eyes, "No matter who it is, if he dares to do this behind my back, I will make him pay the price!"

Everyone quickly left the ruins.

The world outside is still sunny, with birds singing and flowers blooming, as if nothing had happened.

However, Yan Yue and Nong Jin felt vaguely uneasy in their hearts. They had a premonition that the mysterious power and the black figure would bring them greater challenges.

After returning to the sect, a strange silence enveloped the mountain gate, and the air was filled with tension... Yan Yue's heart sank suddenly.

She saw that Nong Jin's face also became gloomy, and his thin lips were pursed into a straight line.

In the distance, a disciple stumbled over and shouted, "Oh no! Sect Master... the elders... something's happened..."
