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

Chapter 123 The Secret of the Statue and the Spiritual Induction

Lin Yun and the others came to the ancient statues in the square and stopped to examine them carefully. Not only were these statues exquisitely carved, but each one also emitted a faint spiritual energy fluctuation, as if it contained some mysterious power.

Lin Yun curiously reached out, wanting to touch one of the statues. As his fingers touched the surface, a gentle spiritual energy flowed through his fingertips and into his body. A blurry image instantly emerged in his mind. In it, an immortal was performing a profound technique, spiritual energy flowing through his body in a dazzling and complex pattern. Though it was only a fleeting moment, Lin Yun felt a deep appreciation for the experience.

"Everyone, try touching these statues. It seems that you can gain some insights into the martial arts from them." Lin Yun said to everyone in surprise.

Upon hearing this, everyone followed suit, reaching out to touch the statue. Su Yao closed her eyes, a look of ecstasy on her face. She seemed to witness a marvelous scene of an immortal masterfully blending spiritual power with the forces of nature, which resonated with her understanding of spiritual power. Chen Yu sensed a unique technique for concealing auras, which reinforced what he had already learned and gave him a deeper understanding of the art of tracking and concealment. Wang Lin and Zhao Gang also gained valuable insights into the statue's mechanisms, restrictions, and defensive spiritual power.

"This fairy island is indeed a treasure trove. These statues alone contain so many good things. I wonder how many more treasures are waiting for us inside." Chen Yu said excitedly, his eyes full of anticipation.

After absorbing the insights brought by the statue, the group continued walking deeper into the square. A uniquely shaped building appeared before them. The building was octagonal in shape, its walls constructed from a jade stone that shone with a rainbow of colors. Each piece of jade was engraved with mysterious runes. The roof resembled a giant, blooming lotus, its petals radiating brilliant spiritual light. It looked magnificent yet exuded an unfathomable aura.

"This building doesn't look simple. It might contain the treasures and skills we are looking for." Su Yao said softly.

Lin Yun nodded and led the way toward the building. Arriving at the main gate, he discovered it was also covered in complex restrictions. However, with his previous experience breaking the restrictions surrounding the Fairy Island, Wang Lin volunteered to step forward and began carefully examining the runes on the door, trying to find a way to break it.

The other team members vigilantly observed the surroundings, anticipating any unexpected situations. Soon, Wang Lin made a discovery. Following her previous method, she used talismans and spiritual energy, carefully manipulating the rune nodes on the door. After some effort, the light of the barrier on the door gradually dimmed, and then slowly opened. A more intense aura of spiritual energy filled the air, invigorating everyone.

As everyone entered the building, they were immediately struck by the sight before them. The interior was vast, with rows of stone platforms arranged around the perimeter. Upon them lay a variety of spiritual objects. Some were spiritual pearls emitting a soft glow, seemingly containing miniature worlds, with spiritual energy flowing through them like a vast galaxy. Others were jade slips of ancient design, presumably containing precious techniques or anecdotes of immortal cultivation. There were also some strangely shaped magical instruments. While their specific purpose was unclear, the powerful spiritual energy they emanated hinted at their extraordinary nature.

"Wow, so many good things, we really came to the right place this time." Zhao Gang said with eyes wide open and a look of amazement on his face.

Lin Yun quickly reminded, "Don't move rashly. These spiritual creatures might also have their own restrictions and protections. We have to be careful and observe them first."

Everyone then gathered their minds and cautiously approached the stone platform to carefully examine these spiritual objects. Su Yao picked up a spiritual bead and gently held it in her palm, feeling the majestic spiritual power contained in it. She said, "The spiritual power of this spiritual bead is so pure and powerful. If we take it back and integrate it into the spiritual power treasure house of the sect, or use it to help the disciples practice, it will definitely improve everyone's cultivation."

Chen Yu, on the other hand, developed a keen interest in the ancient jade slips. He picked one up and tried to infuse it with spiritual energy. Suddenly, the slip glowed faintly, and words began to emerge. Chen Yu carefully read the contents, becoming increasingly excited. He said, "Senior Brother Lin Yun, this jade slip seems to contain a technique specifically designed for cultivating spiritual consciousness. It's extremely profound. If we can master it, it will be of immense help to us on our path to immortality. Not only will we be able to sense danger in advance, but we'll also be able to better control the situation in battle."

When Lin Yun heard this, he had an idea and walked over to take the jade slip and took a look at it. It was indeed as Chen Yu said. If this technique was brought back to the sect and allowed to be studied by qualified disciples, it would definitely become a great help to the sect.

"Put all these jade slips together first, and then study them carefully after we go back to see if we can sort out a method suitable for everyone to practice." Lin Yun said, and everyone nodded and began to carefully collect these precious jade slips and put them properly into the storage magic weapon, with their hearts full of expectations that these skills inheritance could bring changes to the sect.

After examining the spirit beads and jade slips, everyone's attention shifted to the strangely shaped magical artifacts. One artifact resembled a blue bird, its wings spread wide, ready to take flight. Its entire body emanated a pale blue light, and its feathers were lifelike, as if ready to soar at any moment. Lin Yun attempted to touch it with his spiritual power, and the blue bird trembled slightly, but there was no other noticeable reaction.

"This magic weapon looks very powerful, but I don't know what its specific functions are." Lin Yun said with a frown.

Wang Lin speculated, "Perhaps it requires a specific method of spiritual power stimulation or a spell to activate it. We can try to look around for any relevant clues."

So, everyone began searching the building for clues, examining the runes on the walls and carvings in the corners, hoping to find information on how to use these strange magical weapons. However, after searching around, they found nothing obvious. The functions of these magical weapons remained a mystery, leaving people both curious and frustrated.

Just as everyone gathered around these strange magical artifacts, fruitlessly examining them and preparing to put them away, someone accidentally triggered a small mechanism hidden beneath the stone platform. A series of "clicks" were heard, and a sharp alarm rang out throughout the building. Red light began to flicker on the walls, and the previously peaceful room suddenly became filled with a sense of danger.

"Oh no, the mechanism has been triggered, everyone be careful!" Lin Yun shouted, and everyone hurriedly clenched the magic weapons in their hands and looked around vigilantly.

Immediately afterwards, a group of puppet-like guards emerged from all corners of the building. Their bodies were made of a black metal, with red light flashing at their joints. Their eyes were empty but revealed cold murderous intent. They slowly surrounded the crowd, emitting powerful spiritual fluctuations, and were obviously not easy to deal with.

These puppet guards moved extremely quickly, instantly rushing in front of the crowd, brandishing their metal arms and launching a fierce attack. Their power was immense, and each attack was accompanied by a whistling sound. If they were hit, the consequences would be disastrous.

Zhao Gang was the first to bear the brunt of the attack. He raised his magic shield and tried his best to resist the attack of the puppet. The powerful impact made him retreat repeatedly, but fortunately, the shield played a key defensive role and temporarily blocked the puppet's offensive.

Lin Yun, Su Yao, and the others also unleashed their skills, launching a counterattack. Lin Yun unleashed a fierce sword technique, transforming his spiritual energy into streams of sword energy, slashing at the puppets. Su Yao played the Lingxi Jade Flute, and the fluctuations of his spiritual energy transformed into spiritual blades, disrupting the puppets' movements and causing damage. Chen Yu used the art of stealth, weaving between the puppets, looking for opportunities to launch sneak attacks. Wang Lin continuously threw talismans, some of which turned into flames to burn the puppets, while others formed ropes to try to restrain their movements.

However, these puppets seemed tireless and had extremely strong defenses. Ordinary attacks could only leave shallow marks on them and could not cause any substantial damage to them. For a while, everyone was caught in a bitter battle and the situation became extremely critical.

During the fierce battle, Lin Yun fended off the puppets' attacks while carefully observing their structure and behavioral characteristics. He discovered that whenever the puppets attacked, a red crystal on their chests would flash brightly, as if that was the core of their power.

"Everyone, pay attention to attacking the red crystals on their chests. That might be their weakness!" Lin Yun shouted, then increased his spiritual power to the extreme, unleashed his strongest sword move, and slashed fiercely at the red crystal on the chest of a puppet.

The sword struck its target with pinpoint accuracy, instantly cracking the red crystal and slowing the puppet's movements. Seeing this, the other team members followed suit, concentrating their attacks on the red crystal on the puppet's chest. Su Yao's spiritual blades converged into a powerful storm of spiritual energy, sweeping towards the puppet's vitals. Chen Yu and Wang Lin also exerted their full power, focusing their spiritual attacks and the power of their talismans on that single point. Zhao Gang steadied himself, using his shield to block the puppet's counterattacks, creating openings for his teammates to attack.

With everyone's concerted attack, the red crystals on the chests of several puppets finally shattered, and they collapsed to the ground, turning into a pile of scrap metal. Seeing the effect, everyone's morale was boosted, and they continued to attack other puppets using this method, gradually turning the tide of the battle.

After a hard fight, everyone finally eliminated all the puppet guards. The alarm in the building stopped, the red light gradually went out, and everything returned to calm.

Everyone was exhausted, panting, and leaning aside to rest and recover their spiritual strength.

"It was really thrilling this time. I didn't expect that there was such a powerful guard mechanism in this building. I have to be more careful in the future." Su Yao said with lingering fear.

Lin Yun nodded and said, "But we did escape unscathed, and we gained so many treasures and inherited skills, so it was worth it. Let's rest for a while, and then continue exploring this fairy island. Maybe there are more good things waiting for us."

Everyone agreed, and after a short rest, they cheered up again and continued to walk deeper into the building, ready to uncover more mysteries of this fairy island on the sea and find more treasures and opportunities that are valuable to the sect.

At the end of the building, the group discovered a hidden passage. The entrance was hidden behind a large mural, and it was easy to miss it without careful inspection. A faint light emanated from the passage, and a mysterious spiritual energy wave could be heard, as if beckoning everyone to explore.

"There is actually a passage here. There must be something important hidden inside. Let's go in and take a look." Lin Yun said, leading the way towards the passage.
