I was reborn as a young master in an invincible family of immortals

Chapter 102: Lingxu Illusion and the Road Back to the Clan

Having endured the numerous trials of the Phantom Flame Valley, Lin Yun had expected a respite, but unexpectedly, on his way back, a strange wave of light suddenly appeared in the sky. The light spread like ripples, instantly enveloping him and his companions.

Lin Yun's eyes flashed before he was transported to a completely new world—a spiritual realm. Clouds and mist swirled around him, like a veil. There was nothing beneath his feet, yet it felt as if a tangible spiritual force was supporting him. Mountains loomed in the distance, like faint outlines sketched with ink on this ethereal canvas, emanating an indescribable mystery.

Surprise and confusion filled his heart, his grip on the sword tight. The spiritual energy radiating from the blade seemed hazy in the hazy surroundings. Lin Yun pondered to himself, "I don't know where this illusory world came from, and why has it drawn us into it? It seems this is another unexpected turn of events. I just hope I can find a way to leave quickly and return to the sect as soon as possible."

As Lin Yun journeyed through this ethereal realm, he felt a growing sense of wonder. From time to time, shimmering psionic butterflies flew by, their wings seemingly carved from the purest crystal. Each flap cast a speck of light, like falling stars.

However, not all creatures are so beautiful and harmless. As they walked, a group of fox-like creatures with transparent wings suddenly appeared in the mist ahead. Their eyes shone with cunning light as they stared closely at Lin Yun and the others.

"Everyone be careful, these guys don't look friendly." Lin Yun whispered to his companions, and at the same time stopped and watched the movements of these strange creatures vigilantly.

The group of fox-like creatures seemed to be communicating with each other. Then, one of them slowly approached Lin Yun and the others, stopped a few steps away, and looked at everyone with its head tilted.

Lin Yun could sense a faint spiritual energy emanating from it. While not strong, it was not to be underestimated. Just as he was preparing to respond to a possible attack, the fox suddenly spoke in human language: "Outsider, you have intruded into our spiritual illusion. Do you know the rules here?"

Lin Yun was startled, having never expected this creature to actually speak. He quickly clasped his fists in greeting and said respectfully, "We were on our way back and were unintentionally drawn into this place. We didn't mean to offend. Please let us know the rules of this place. If we've offended you, we'll definitely apologize."

A hint of doubt flashed across the fox's eyes, as if trying to determine the truth of Lin Yun's words. After a moment, it said, "Hmph, if that's the case, then you need to help us accomplish one thing. If you can do that, we'll let you leave this illusion. Otherwise, you'll stay here forever."

Lin Yun and his companions exchanged a glance. Though feeling somewhat helpless, they could only agree at this moment. "Please make it clear that we will do our best," Lin Yun said.

The fox spirit turned, pointed in a certain direction, and said, "Deep within this illusion lies a magical pearl. It's the key to maintaining balance here. Recently, for unknown reasons, it has lost its radiance, causing disturbances in parts of the illusion. You must find it and find a way to restore its radiance and balance."

Lin Yun looked in the direction the spirit fox pointed, only to see the clouds and mist in the distance thicken even more, emitting a faint mysterious aura. He thought to himself, "This mission sounds difficult, but in order to leave here and return to the sect as soon as possible, I have to give it my all."

So, Lin Yun nodded to the fox spirit and said, "Okay, let's go look for the Spiritual Pearl now. I hope you can give us some clues about where the Spiritual Pearl is and how to make it shine again."

The fox spirit narrowed its eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "Where the Spiritual Pearl is, there's an ancient spiritual tower. Strange spiritual energy waves are emanating from the tower, and you should be able to find it by following those waves. As for restoring its radiance, I don't know the specific method. I only heard that nourishing it with pure spiritual energy might help."

After thanking the fox spirit, Lin Yun led his companions deeper into the illusionary realm in the direction indicated by the fox spirit. Along the way, the fog grew thicker, and visibility was extremely low. They could only rely on their spiritual perception to move forward cautiously.

They walked for an unknown amount of time, but suddenly, the outline of a tall building appeared faintly in the fog ahead. As they got closer, a spiritual tower emitting a mysterious light appeared before their eyes.

The pagoda was covered in ancient runes, each shimmering with a faint light, as if telling of its long history. The spiritual energy fluctuations surrounding the pagoda were indeed as the fox spirit had predicted: intense and bizarre, sometimes swirling upwards, sometimes swirling like a vortex, making one feel as if they were at the center of a spiritual storm.

"It seems this is where the Spiritual Pearl is." Lin Yun looked at the Spiritual Tower before him, feeling both relieved and worried. He was relieved to have finally found the target location, but worried about what difficulties he would encounter before the Spiritual Pearl could regain its brilliance.

Lin Yun took the lead and walked towards the spirit tower. When he approached the tower door, he found that the door was tightly closed. There was a circular groove on it, and some runes similar to those on the tower were engraved around the groove.

He reached out to touch the groove, trying to feel the mystery within. At this moment, a spiritual barrier suddenly popped out from the tower gate and bounced him back.

"Hmm!" Lin Yun groaned, steadied himself, and frowned as he looked at the spiritual barrier. Seeing this, his companions gathered around, concerned about what was going on.

"This tower gate is protected by a spiritual barrier. It seems we can't enter easily," Lin Yun said, a thoughtful glint in his eyes. "We have to find a way to break this barrier before we can continue our search for the Spiritual Pearl."

Everyone began to carefully observe the spiritual barrier, trying to find a way to break it. Some tried to attack the barrier with spiritual power, but found that their attacks were like falling into a sea of ​​​​drops, with no effect. Others studied the runes on the tower door, hoping to find a clue from them.

Just as everyone was at a loss for ideas, Lin Yun suddenly remembered what the fox spirit had said: pure spiritual energy was needed to nourish the Spiritual Pearl. A thought struck him, and he realized that this spiritual barrier might also be related to pure spiritual energy.

So, he calmed down, mobilized the spiritual power in his body, and began to slowly purify it, removing the impurities in the spiritual power bit by bit, making it purer. When he felt that the spiritual power was pure enough, he slowly reached out to the spiritual power barrier and injected the purified spiritual power into it.

A miracle occurred. As Lin Yun injected pure spiritual energy into the barrier, the light on the spiritual barrier began to flicker and gradually dimmed. Finally, the barrier dissipated like foam, and the tower gate slowly opened.

"Success!" the companions shouted in surprise.

Lin Yun smiled slightly and said, "Let's go in and take a look. I hope the Linghuan Pearl is inside."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked into the spirit tower.

The interior of the Spiritual Pagoda was dimly lit, with only a few glimmering gemstones embedded in the walls providing some illumination. Lin Yun and the others cautiously explored the interior, ascending floor by floor.

When they reached the third floor, they found a stone platform emitting a soft glow. On the platform was a fist-sized bead with a faint glow flowing on the surface of the bead. It was the Spiritual Bead.

However, when Lin Yun approached the Spiritual Pearl, he discovered a faint spiritual shield surrounding it. He reached out and touched the shield, sensing a powerful force within it, seemingly preventing anyone from approaching the Spiritual Pearl.

"We have to find a way to break this shield." Lin Yun said with a frown.

At that moment, his eyes were suddenly drawn to an ancient book on the stone platform. The book looked very worn, the pages yellowed, but the writing was clearly legible. Lin Yun curiously picked up the book and flipped it open, discovering that it contained some secrets about the Spiritual Pearl and this Spiritual Pagoda.

Lin Yun carefully read the ancient text. It turned out that the Linghuan Pearl had lost its radiance because an alien dark force had previously invaded the Lingxu Illusionary Realm. Although repelled, it still affected the Linghuan Pearl. To restore its radiance, it not only needed to be nourished with pure spiritual energy, but also required finding five corresponding Spirit Source Stones and placing them in specific locations around the Linghuan Pearl to completely dispel the remaining influence of the dark force.

"It seems that things are more complicated than I imagined." Lin Yun closed the ancient book and thought to himself. "But now that I know the method, let's act quickly."

He told his companions the contents of the ancient book, and they immediately searched for the five spirit source stones in the spirit tower.

After a careful search, Lin Yun and his team finally found five Spirit Source Stones on different floors of the Spirit Tower. Each Spirit Source Stone exuded a unique spiritual energy fluctuation and seemed to have some mysterious connection with the Spirit Magic Pearl.

Lin Yun placed the five Spirit Source Stones one by one in specific locations around the Spiritual Illusion Pearl, following the locations recorded in the ancient text. The moment the last Spirit Source Stone was placed, the Spiritual Illusion Pearl suddenly shone brightly. That light, like a blazing sun, instantly dispelled the darkness within the Spiritual Pagoda and illuminated the entire Spiritual Illusionary Realm.

"Success!" Lin Yun shouted excitedly.

As the Linghuan Pearl regained its light, the Lingxu Illusionary Realm also began to gradually return to calm. The originally chaotic fluctuations of spiritual power became stable and orderly. Those strange creatures seemed to have sensed the changes and began to chirp happily.

After completing the mission, Lin Yun and his companions walked out of the Spirit Tower. The Spirit Fox was already waiting outside. Seeing the Spirit Orb regain its glow, a look of satisfaction appeared in its eyes.

"You have done a good job. Now you can leave this illusory world." said the fox spirit.

Lin Yun clasped his fists and saluted, saying gratefully, "Thank you for giving us this opportunity. It allows us to complete our mission and leave here."

After saying that, the fox spirit flapped its wings and drew a strange rune in front of it. The rune flashed with light and expanded instantly, forming a portal to the outside world.

Lin Yun looked at his companions, his eyes filled with an eagerness to return to the sect. "Let's go, let's go back to the sect!"

Everyone nodded and stepped into the portal without hesitation.

With a flash of light, Lin Yun and his companions finally left the Lingxu Illusionary Realm and set out on the journey back to the sect. At this moment, his heart was filled with longing for the sect and anticipation for the life and cultivation in the sect.
