Chapter 129: The Search for the Spiritual Pearl and the Dangers
Lin Yun and Su Yao walked slowly along a deep passage in the underground ruins. The walls on both sides of the passage were engraved with runes of various shapes. Some runes flickered as if guiding them, while others were dim, revealing a mysterious and ancient atmosphere.
The two of them vigilantly observed the surroundings, keeping an eye out for any traces of the mysterious spirit pearl. Su Yao, relying on her keen spiritual perception, tried to capture the subtle and special spiritual fluctuations in the air. She whispered, "Brother Lin Yun, the spiritual fluctuations in this place are very complex. If the spirit pearl is here, it should have a more unique spiritual aura. We have to look carefully for it."
Lin Yun nodded in response, his sword tightly gripped, ready to respond to any danger. As they walked, a slight "click" suddenly came from the front, as if some mechanism had been triggered. The two of them instantly became alert, stopped, and took full precautions.
The wall on one side of the passage slowly opened, and a group of skeleton-like puppets emerged from it. There were blue flames burning in their eye sockets, and they held rusty weapons in their hands. They exuded an aura of decay yet with fluctuations of spiritual power, and they approached Lin Yun and Su Yao step by step.
Faced with the approaching skeleton puppets, Lin Yun took the lead in attacking. He unleashed a fierce sword technique, transforming his spiritual energy into brilliant sword energy, which shot towards the skeletal puppets. The sword energy struck the puppets with a clanging sound, sending up showers of sparks. However, these puppets were exceptionally sturdy, and the sword energy only left shallow scratches on them, causing no significant damage.
Seeing this, Su Yao played the Lingxi Jade Flute, and the spiritual power fluctuations turned into spiritual blades, shooting towards the joints of the puppets, trying to destroy their ability to move. The spiritual blades hit the joints of the puppets, and indeed made some of the puppets' movements slow down, but they still did not stop attacking, and continued to rush towards the two people waving their weapons.
While Lin Yun continued to use his sword skills to block the puppets' attacks, he shouted, "These puppets are not easy to deal with. We have to find their weak points. Pay attention to see if there are any places on their bodies where spiritual energy is concentrated."
Su Yao nodded and concentrated on observing the puppet's spiritual power fluctuations. During the fierce battle, she found that every time the puppet attacked, there would be a more obvious spiritual power flashing in their chest, as if that was the source of their power.
"Senior Brother Lin Yun, attack their chests, that should be their weak point!" Su Yao shouted, and then increased her spiritual power to the extreme. All the spiritual blades she blew out gathered together, turning into a powerful spiritual power storm, sweeping towards the chest of the skeleton puppet.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yun also activated his spiritual power to its strongest state, unleashing a giant spiritual sword energy, which together with Su Yao's spiritual storm attacked the puppet's vital parts.
Seeing this, the other puppets wanted to stop their attack and rushed forward, but Lin Yun and Su Yao cooperated well. Lin Yun used his sword skills to block the rushing puppets and created space for Su Yao to attack.
With their combined strength, several skeleton puppets were finally struck in the chest. A burst of spiritual energy erupted, and they collapsed to the ground, turning into a pile of broken bones. Seeing their attack was effective, the two men's morale was boosted, and they continued to attack the other puppets in the same way. Gradually, the number of skeleton puppets dwindled, and they were finally wiped out.
After repelling the skeleton puppet, the two took a breath and continued to move forward along the passage. Not far away, Su Yao suddenly stopped and said in surprise: "Brother Lin Yun, I feel a very special spiritual power fluctuation, which is very similar to the spiritual power of the spirit pearl described in the book. It should be nearby!"
Lin Yun was delighted when he heard this, and the two of them hurriedly quickened their pace, heading towards the direction of the spiritual energy fluctuations. At the end of the passage, they found a small stone chamber. Inlaid on the wall of the stone chamber was a spiritual bead that emitted a soft glow. The bead was a light purple, and it seemed as if a trace of spiritual energy was slowly flowing inside. It was one of the mysterious spiritual beads they were looking for.
"Finally found one. This is not easy." Lin Yun said with a smile, walked forward, carefully took out the spirit bead, and put it into the storage magic weapon, his heart full of a sense of accomplishment.
"Let's keep looking. There are still four spirit beads that we haven't found. I hope other groups can also make some gains." Su Yao said, and the two of them left the stone chamber and continued to explore other areas of the ruins, hoping to find the remaining spirit beads as soon as possible.
On the other side, Chen Yu and Wang Lin chose another fork in the road to enter the depths of the underground ruins. This passage was filled with various traps and mechanisms, and the slightest mistake could put them in danger.
Chen Yu walked ahead, relying on his expertise in stealth tracking and keen spiritual perception to carefully detect any danger ahead. Suddenly, he felt a subtle spiritual fluctuation coming from under his feet. His face changed and he shouted, "Be careful, there's a trap!"
As he spoke, he dodged and leaped back. At the same time, Wang Lin quickly unleashed his spiritual power, forming a spiritual barrier in front of the two of them. Suddenly, the ground where they had been standing opened up, and countless sharp stone pillars shot out from it. These pillars shone with a black light, clearly containing a toxin. If they were hit, the consequences would be disastrous.
"This mechanism is so dangerous. We have to be more careful." Wang Lin said with lingering fear. The two did not dare to slack off and continued to move forward slowly. They triggered several mechanisms one after another along the way. Some were sharp blades that popped out from both sides of the wall, and some were huge rocks falling from overhead. Thanks to the tacit cooperation between the two, they were able to escape danger every time.
After turning a bend filled with sharp blade mechanisms, Chen Yu discovered a room in front of him that was emitting a faint light. The door of the room was closed tightly, and was engraved with complex runes and prohibitions.
"Wang Lin, look at that room over there. Maybe there are spirit beads in it. Let's go over and see if we can open the door." Chen Yu said, pointing to the room.
Wang Lin stepped forward, carefully observing the rune restrictions on the door. She gently touched them with her spiritual power, pondering a way to break them. After some research, she took out several specially crafted talismans and affixed them to the rune nodes on the door in a specific order. Then, she guided Chen Yu to infuse them with spiritual power, enhancing their power.
With a surge of spiritual energy, the forbidden light on the door gradually dimmed, and then slowly opened. The two walked into the room with great anticipation. They saw some ancient artifacts placed inside. In the center of the room, there was a stone platform. On the stone platform sat a bead emitting a light blue light. A faint spiritual mist lingered around the bead, which seemed to match the characteristics of the spiritual bead described in the scroll.
Chen Yu walked forward excitedly, wanting to pick up the bead to confirm it. Just as his hand was about to touch the bead, suddenly, a black shadow jumped out from the corner of the room and pounced towards Chen Yu at an extremely fast speed, bringing up a gust of fishy wind.
Chen Yu reacted quickly, performing a concealment technique and dodging the shadow's attack. The two could then see clearly that it was a black panther-like beast, completely black, its eyes flashing an eerie green light. It radiated powerful spiritual energy, staring intently at them, clearly mistaking them for enemies seeking to steal the treasure.
"Where did this monster come from? It seems that it is not so easy to get this spiritual pearl." Wang Lin said with a frown. The two of them hurriedly clenched the magic weapons in their hands, preparing to start a fierce battle with the black panther monster.
The black panther monster launched the first attack. Its body moved like lightning as it pounced towards Chen Yu. Its sharp claws slashed through the air, creating arcs of spiritual energy. Chen Yu used his spiritual power to move quickly, dodging the monster's attacks while looking for opportunities to counterattack.
Wang Lin kept throwing out talismans. Some of the talismans turned into raging flames, burning towards the monster, trying to interfere with its movements; others formed tough ropes, trying to bind the monster's limbs and slow down its speed.
The black panther monster nimbly dodged the flames and ropes, continuing its relentless pursuit of Chen Yu. Chen Yu seized the opportunity, dodging once before unleashing a powerful hidden spiritual blade and striking the monster in the abdomen. The hidden spiritual blade struck the monster with pinpoint accuracy, slicing a gash in its abdomen. The monster roared in pain, but this only intensified its rage, and its attacks became even more ferocious.
Just as the black panther monster lunged at Chen Yu again, Wang Lin threw a powerful immobilizing talisman. The talisman transformed into a beam of light and instantly struck the monster, halting its movement for a moment. Chen Yu seized the opportunity to rush forward, snatching up the light blue spirit bead from the stone platform and pocketing it. Then, he and Wang Lin quickly retreated out of the room, fending off the monster's pursuit as they retreated.
Acting alone, Zhao Gang chose a more secluded passage. This passage seemed peaceful, but in fact, it was fraught with danger. Holding a magic shield, he walked cautiously step by step, always paying attention to the movements around him.
As he walked, he felt the temperature around him gradually drop. A chill came from all directions, making him shiver. Suddenly, he heard a subtle rustling sound, as if something was moving through the wall.
Before he could react, countless white ice threads shot towards him from the walls, ground and ceiling. The ice threads were extremely sharp and contained a powerful icy force. If he was entangled in them, he would probably be frozen into an ice cube in an instant.
Zhao Gang hurriedly raised his shield and protected himself tightly. Ice threads shot onto the shield, making a "ding-dang-dang" sound. Although the shield blocked the direct attack of the ice threads, the icy force still passed through the shield and spread toward his body, making his hands and feet gradually become stiff.
Zhao Gang gritted his teeth, channeling his spiritual energy to resist the icy force while pondering a countermeasure. He discovered that the icy threads seemed to be continuously shooting out from a point at the end of the passage, so he decided to rush in that direction, trying to find the source of the icy threads and resolve the crisis in one fell swoop.
He braved the onslaught of icy threads and trudged towards the end of the passage, each step expending immense effort. Finally, he reached the end and discovered a small ice cellar. Inside the cellar lay a spirit bead emitting a white glow. A thick layer of ice surrounded the bead, from which the icy threads extended.
"So this spirit pearl is the source of the ice silk attack. I have to find a way to get it out."
