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

Chapter 97: Ruins in trouble, working together to defeat the enemy

The eerie forest was silent, and an unsettling atmosphere hung in the air.

The towering trees blocked out the sun, completely blocking out the sunlight. Only scattered spots of light cast strange shadows on the ground.

Yan Yue frowned, she was keenly aware that there was a huge danger hidden in this seemingly peaceful forest.

"Wait, there..." Yan Yue grabbed Nong Jin and pointed forward.

Nong Jin followed Yan Yue's gaze, but saw only an ordinary forest. He asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"I don't feel right." Yan Yue whispered, "This forest is too quiet, so quiet that it's a little abnormal."

Lan Xing nodded in agreement: "I also feel a sense of oppression."

Elder Zhao, however, was somewhat skeptical: "Miss Yan, aren't you being too cautious? I don't think this forest is anything special."

Yan Yue ignored Elder Zhao's questioning. She looked around, her eyes full of vigilance.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and the leaves rustled, as if whispering to each other.

"Be careful!" Yan Yue shouted.

Before he finished speaking, a dark shadow emerged from the woods and rushed towards Yan Yue. Yan Yue reacted quickly, dodging the attack sideways and swung his sword to force the shadow back.

"Gongsun Yu!" Yan Yue recognized the person at a glance.

Gongsun Yu smiled grimly: "Yan Yue, you didn't expect that we would meet again!"

This time, Gongsun Yu was not alone. There were several men in black following him. Each of them had a strong aura and was obviously a master.

Elder Zhao's expression changed drastically: "Not good, they are outnumbered and powerful, we are no match for them!"

Hong Gang clenched his weapon tightly and said in a deep voice, "What are you afraid of? Let's fight!"

Lan Xing was also ready for battle, but she was filled with worry. The enemy was clearly stronger than them, and this battle was likely to be disastrous.

Nong Jin protected Yan Yue behind him, his eyes full of murderous intent: "If you dare to hurt Yan Yue, you will all die!"

Yan Yue clenched the sword in his hand, and a feeling of powerlessness rose in his heart.

Although her strength has improved a lot after her rebirth, she still feels tremendous pressure facing so many masters.

Especially in this strange forest, she always felt that something was watching them in secret.

"Yan Yue, do you think you can escape from my clutches?" Gongsun Yu sneered, "Today, I will make you pay for everything I have done!"

As soon as Gongsun Yu finished speaking, the men in black behind him rushed forward and surrounded Yan Yue and others.

"kill!"

The shouts and cries of killing shook the earth, and a fierce battle was about to break out.

Yan Yue took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

She knew that now was not the time to panic, she had to find a way to break through.

At this moment, a low roar came from the depths of the forest, and the ground began to tremble slightly.

"What's that sound?" Elder Zhao asked in horror.

Yan Yue's face changed, she felt a more powerful aura approaching.

"Oh no! We seem to have alarmed something!" Yan Yue said in a deep voice, "Prepare to meet the enemy!"

Deep in the woods, a huge black shadow slowly emerged, and a suffocating pressure enveloped everyone...

The black shadow gradually became clearer, and it turned out to be a huge spirit shadow, emitting a chilling and cold aura.

Its scarlet eyes stared at everyone and it let out a deafening roar, like a demon from hell.

Elder Zhao was so frightened that his face turned pale, his legs trembling uncontrollably, and he trembled as he said, "What...what kind of monster is this..."

Gongsun Yu's expression also changed slightly. The power of this spirit shadow was beyond his expectations.

He originally planned to use the power of the spirit shadow to deal with Yan Yue and others, but now it seems that this spirit shadow is likely to become a threat to everyone.

The few men in black he brought with him were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They huddled together tightly and trembled.

"Its aura is filled with negative energy," Lan Xing said solemnly. "My ability should be effective against it." After saying that, she clasped her hands together and muttered something. A soft white light emanated from her, like the morning sun, dispelling the gloomy atmosphere around her.

The white light shone on Lingying, and Lingying let out a painful roar. Its movements became slow and its eyes became confused.

The black-clad men on Gongsun Yu's side were affected by the white light, and an inexplicable fear and uneasiness arose in their hearts. Their attacks became chaotic and full of loopholes.

"Now is the time!" Nong Jin seized the opportunity and rushed into the enemy camp like lightning.

He swung the long sword in his hand, carrying a sharp sword energy, and attacked the man in black like a storm.

After a few screams, several men in black fell in a pool of blood.

Seeing this, Gongsun Yu's face became even gloomier.

He didn't expect that Lan Xing's ability was so powerful that it could interfere with Lingying and his men.

He secretly hated it, but he could do nothing about it.

During the fight with the man in black, Yan Yue accidentally got her arm scratched by his weapon. Blood flowed down the wound, staining her sleeve red.

"Yan Yue!" When Nong Jin saw Yan Yue injured, his heart tightened and he hurried to her side.

He carefully lifted her sleeve and checked her injuries.

Although the wound was not deep, it was shocking.

"I'm fine," Yan Yue endured the pain and forced a smile, "It's just a minor injury."

Nong Jin looked at her pale face and felt distressed.

He gently stroked her wound and said softly, "Don't be stubborn, I will protect you." His eyes were full of tenderness, as if he wanted to melt Yan Yue in his tenderness.

Yan Yue looked at Nong Jin's concerned eyes and felt a warm feeling in her heart.

At this moment, Lingying roared again, broke free from Lanxing's control, and pounced towards everyone.

"Be careful!" Nong Jin protected Yan Yue behind him and faced Lingying's attack with the sword in his hand.

The fierce battle broke out again, and the deafening sound of fighting echoed throughout the forest.

Elder Zhao hid behind the crowd, watching the fierce battle, a hint of greed flashed in his eyes.

He quietly took a few steps back and muttered to himself, "The treasure must be hidden deep in the ruins. I have to find a way to get rid of them..." He turned around and prepared to walk into the depths of the forest.

"Elder Zhao, where are you going?" Hong Gang noticed Elder Zhao's actions and asked sternly.

Elder Zhao paused, a trace of panic flashing across his face… He coughed dryly, his expression somewhat unnatural. “Ahem, I just feel that if so many of us act together, we’ll be too conspicuous and easily attract Lingying’s attention. It would be better if we split up, so that we have a greater chance of finding the treasure.”

Hong Gang looked doubtful, "Elder Zhao, are you sure you don't want to keep the treasure for yourself?"

Elder Zhao's expression changed. "Hong Gang, what do you mean? How could I..."

"Enough!" Yan Yue interrupted him coldly, "Now is not the time for internal strife, let's solve the trouble at hand first." She glanced at Gongsun Yu who was eyeing her covetously and Lingying who was roaring and rushing towards her again, and a sense of crisis arose in her heart.

Gongsun Yu sneered, "Yan Yue, do you think you can escape? Today is the day you die!"

"Hmph, it's still uncertain who will win!" Nong Jin protected Yan Yue behind him and stared at Gongsun Yu fiercely.

The battle broke out again. Nong Jin's sword energy was like a rainbow, and it collided violently with Gongsun Yu's palm wind, making bursts of roars.

Lan Xing continued to use her ability to suppress Lingying, but Lingying's power was too strong and Lan Xing's face became paler and paler.

Hong Gang was responsible for protecting Yan Yue and Lan Xing. He wielded the giant axe in his hand and repelled the approaching enemies one by one.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

The ground suddenly shook, and the stone slabs under everyone's feet began to flip. Countless hidden weapons shot out from all directions, and the rain of arrows was like locusts, making it impossible to defend against them.

"Be careful!" Hong Gang roared, swinging his giant axe vigorously to block the hidden weapons shot at Yan Yue and Lan Xing one by one.

But he himself was not spared. He was shot by several hidden arrows and his clothes were stained with blood.

"Damn it, it's a trap!" Elder Zhao exclaimed and dodged in a hurry.

Everyone fell into chaos. While dodging hidden weapons, they also had to deal with the attacks of Gongsun Yu and Lingying, and there were dangers everywhere.

"Ah!" A man in black was unable to dodge and was hit by a poisonous needle and fell to the ground.

"We can't go on like this, we will be trapped here and die!" Lan Xing's face was pale and her strength was almost exhausted.

At this critical moment, some images suddenly flashed through Yan Yue's mind. Those were the records about the ruins' mechanisms that she had seen in ancient books in her previous life.

"I know how to shut down the trap!" Yan Yue shouted, "Hong Gang, cover me!"

Hong Gang gritted his teeth and swung his giant axe to clear a path for Yan Yue.

Yan Yue, relying on his memories from his past life, quickly found the location of the mechanism: an inconspicuous button hidden on the wall.

She took a deep breath and punched the button.

With a click, the mechanism stopped working and the hidden weapon disappeared.

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, but before they could catch their breath, Yan Yue's expression suddenly changed. He pointed at a stone door deep in the ruins and said, "Oh no, that door..."

The stone door slowly opened the moment Yan Yue pressed the button.

A cold breath seeped out from the crack of the door, making people feel creepy.

Gongsun Yu's face changed drastically when he saw this. He roared, "No! We can't let them open that door!"

Gongsun Yu was well aware of the danger behind that door, which even he did not dare to touch easily.

He frantically mobilized the spiritual power in his body and rushed towards Yan Yue desperately, trying to stop her.

"Stop him!" Nong Jin shouted angrily, waving the sword in his hand, and the sword energy was so strong that he blocked all of Gongsun Yu's attacks.

The two men fought fiercely again, with swords flashing and palm winds whistling, shaking the entire ruins.

"Lan Xing, are you okay?" Yan Yue asked with concern. Lan Xing's face was still pale, but she still managed to speak: "I can hold on for a while. You guys go in quickly. I will do my best to hold Ling Ying back."

The spirit shadow let out a deafening roar, its body became even larger and its power even more terrifying.

The suppressive effect of Blue Star's dispelling power on it was getting weaker and weaker, and she was almost unable to hold on.

Hong Gang held a huge axe and stood in front of Lan Xing, like a mountain, defending her from Lingying's attacks.

"Yan Yue, let's go!" Nong Jin shouted anxiously while fighting fiercely with Gongsun Yu.

Yan Yue nodded, she knew that now was not the time to hesitate.

She glanced at the people who were still fighting hard, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.

She took a deep breath, turned around resolutely, and walked into the open stone door.

Behind the stone gate is a dark passage.

Ancient runes are carved on the walls on both sides of the passage, emitting a strange light.

A gloomy atmosphere filled the passage, making people shudder.

Yan Yue walked forward along the passage with firm and powerful steps.

She knew that the road ahead was full of dangers, but she had to go on.

Because she wants revenge and justice for her tragic death in her previous life!

At this moment, the battle outside became more and more intense.

Nong Jin was fighting against Gongsun Yu and Ling Ying alone, and was under tremendous pressure.

Although he was very powerful, he was outnumbered and had several wounds on his body.

"Nong Jin, be careful!" Yan Yue's voice suddenly came from deep in the passage.

Nong Jin was shocked. He turned around and saw that Yan Yue had returned at some point. She was holding a long sword emitting golden light in her hand, and the tip of the sword was pointing directly at Gongsun Yu.

"You... why are you back?" Gongsun Yu looked at Yan Yue in astonishment. He didn't expect that Yan Yue could return in such a short time and with such a powerful weapon.

Yan Yue sneered, a murderous look flashing in his eyes. "Gongsun Yu, your death has come!"

The golden sword light cut through the darkness like a flash of lightning, and instantly struck Gongsun Yu.

Gongsun Yu screamed miserably as his body was torn apart by the sword energy, turning into a cloud of blood mist and disappearing into the air.

"No! This is impossible!" Elder Zhao looked at the scene in horror. He couldn't believe that Gongsun Yu was killed by Yan Yue with one sword.

He wanted to escape, but was stopped by Nong Jin with a sword.

"Elder Zhao, it's time for you to pay the price for what you have done." Nong Jin's voice was cold and ruthless.

After dealing with Gongsun Yu, Yan Yue and Nong Jin teamed up to deal with Ling Ying. Under Yan Yue's command, they cooperated well and eventually defeated Ling Ying.

Lan Xing and Hong Gang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although their injuries were serious, they finally survived.

"Yan Yue, what happened after you went in just now?" Lan Xing asked curiously.

Yan Yue smiled mysteriously, "After entering..." She paused, her gaze cast into the depths of the passage, "I found something interesting." She raised the golden sword in her hand, "This sword is what I found inside."

Nong Jin walked over to Yan Yue and held her hand, "Let's go in and take a look together."

The two walked side by side into the depths of the passage and disappeared into the darkness.
