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

The thick fog rolled like a giant beast with bared fangs and claws, swallowing Yan Yue and Nong Jin.

It was pitch dark, with only the faint fluorescence from the jade pendant illuminating the small area.

There were gusts of cold wind, bringing a biting chill to their bones (there seemed to be whispers coming from the shadows, circling around them like hungry predators).

The sound was sometimes far away, sometimes near, sometimes high, sometimes low, like a ghost's whisper, which made people feel creepy.

Nong Jin protected Yan Yue behind him. His golden eyes flashed sharply in the mist, and he scanned the surroundings vigilantly like a cheetah locking onto its prey.

"This is the Spirit Fairy's Labyrinth Phantom," he said in a deep and powerful voice. "She can see into people's hearts and use our fears and desires to create illusions."

Yan Yue's heartbeat suddenly quickened, and she clenched the jade pendant in her hand. The fear of being hunted by an underworld supernatural organization in her previous life surged into her heart like a tide.

She took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm.

"So, what we see and hear may be false?"

"That's right," Nong Jin nodded. "This maze tests our minds. As long as we don't get fooled by the illusions, we can find the exit."

Suddenly, a shrill scream broke the silence, followed by a creepy laugh.

Yan Yue felt as if his blood had solidified, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

She held Nong Jin's arm tightly, her fingertips cold.

"Did you...did you hear that?"

Nong Jin's expression also became solemn. He drew out his sword, and the sword body made a crisp buzzing sound, like a poisonous snake ready to strike.

"Here it comes!" he whispered, a fierce look in his eyes.

A blurry figure slowly emerged from the fog, emitting a sickening sneer.

"Hehehe... Welcome to my world..." (The voice was cold and weird, like a call from hell).

Yan Yue's heart was beating violently and she felt it was becoming difficult to breathe.

That figure...

sound……

Why is it so familiar...

This is terrifying...

"Yu'er, be careful!" Nong Jin suddenly pulled her behind him, swung his sword, and a golden light cut through the fog and hit the blurry figure.

"Hmph, a mere trifle!" The figure snorted disdainfully and instantly disappeared into the mist.

"Yuer, don't be afraid, I'm here!" Nong Jin's voice was firm and powerful, giving Yan Yue great courage.

However, the next moment, an even more terrifying voice rang in their ears...

"Yan Yue...you can't escape..." That voice, like a thorn in the flesh, penetrated into Yan Yue's mind and dragged her into an endless abyss.

In her previous life, the cruel methods used by the underworld supernatural organization were replayed before her eyes.

The cold laboratory, the glaring lights, the sharp needles, and that desperate grin...

The vines of fear wrapped tightly around her heart, almost suffocating her.

"No! I'm not an experimental subject! I'm not!" Yan Yue growled in pain, his body shaking like a fallen leaf in the wind.

Nong Jin hugged her tightly, his golden eyes filled with heartache.

Yan Yue suddenly opened his eyes and saw Nong Jin's anxious face.

His eyes were so firm and warm, like a ray of sunshine in winter, dispelling the haze in her heart.

Yes, this is an illusion!

She has been reborn!

She is no longer the experimental subject at the mercy of others!

She is Yan Yue!

It is a phoenix reborn from the ashes!

She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

Those painful memories are a part of her life. She cannot escape them, but she can choose how to face them.

She will no longer be bound by the past!

Yan Yue closed his eyes, and the map of the fairy palace appeared in his mind.

In her previous life, in order to escape the organization's pursuit, she engraved almost every inch of the Asgard in her mind.

Although the fog obscured her vision, she could clearly sense the direction.

"Jin, take three steps to the left, then ten steps forward." Yan Yue's voice was calm and firm, as if the fog had no effect on her.

Nong Jin did not hesitate at all and followed Yan Yue's instructions with complete trust.

"Stop, turn right ninety degrees, and take five more steps..."

One step, two steps, three steps...

Suddenly, Yan Yue grabbed Nong Jin's arm. "There!"

Nong Jin followed her gaze and saw a vague outline looming in the mist...

"What is that?" Nong Jin's voice was low and alert.

When Nong Jin heard this, golden light around him suddenly surged, like a scorching sun dispelling darkness. Powerful immortal power surged out like a tide, forcing the surrounding fog back several feet.

The fog, which was originally too thick to dissolve, was now torn apart as if by an invisible giant hand, revealing a corner of the maze.

Ancient runes are carved on the mottled stone walls, flashing with faint light, as if containing some kind of mysterious power.

After the fog dissipated, the originally hideous and terrifying phantoms gradually revealed their true appearance - twisted branches, strange rocks, and fallen leaves blown by the wind.

Under Yan Yue's precise instructions, they discovered that the appearance of these phantoms had a certain pattern, which seemed to be related to their inner fears and desires.

Yan Yue and Nong Jin walked side by side, their eyes firm and their hearts calm. Under their firm belief, those illusions gradually became illusory, like popped soap bubbles that dissipated into nothingness with a slight touch.

The fairy Ling, who was hiding deep in the fog, couldn't help but let out a light exclamation when she saw the figures of Yan Yue and Nong Jin in the surveillance crystal ball.

She originally thought that this carefully arranged maze illusion would be enough to trap any intruder, but she didn't expect that these two people would see through her tricks so easily.

"Interesting..." Fairy Ling raised a playful arc at the corner of her mouth, and lightly tapped the crystal ball with her slender jade fingers. The fog surged again, and the phantom became more ferocious.

This time, it was no longer a bluff threat, but a real attack.

Countless black shadows rushed out from the fog and pounced on Yan Yue and Nong Jin like hungry wolves.

Nong Jin's golden eyes flashed, and the long sword in his hand danced tightly, defeating the phantoms that attacked from the front one by one.

Yan Yueze was agile, moving among the dark shadows, the spells in his hands changing, and his fierce attacks accurately hit the phantoms on the side.

The two cooperated well, both offensively and defensively, like a perfect fighting machine, gradually breaking the Phantom's attack rhythm.

However, just when they were about to gain the upper hand, a dark shadow struck like lightning and hit Yan Yue's shoulder.

Yan Yue groaned, staggered and almost fell.

Seeing this, Nong Jin was shocked and immediately gave up the attack. He flashed to Yan Yue and hugged her tightly.

"Yuer!" He anxiously checked her injuries, his golden eyes filled with heartache.

Warm spiritual power surged out from his palm and slowly flowed into Yan Yue's body, repairing her damaged meridians.

Yan Yue looked at Nong Jin's nervous expression, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She gently kissed him on the cheek and said softly, "I'm fine, it's just a minor injury."

With the help of Nong Jin's spiritual power, Yan Yue quickly recovered.

The two fought side by side again, even more powerful than before.

Finally, after a hard fight, they saw the end of the maze.

However, just as they were about to step out of the maze, an even stronger pressure came from the front, making it difficult for them to breathe.

Yan Yue and Nong Jin exchanged glances, and both had an ominous premonition in their hearts.

They walked forward slowly...

Yan Yue's fingers gently touched the cold stone door...
