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

Lin Yun studied the peculiar pattern on the crystal ball intently, his mind rapidly searching for clues to its presence. The other team members watched his every move with bated breath, anxiously anticipating his discovery.

At this moment, the atmosphere within the building was exceptionally solemn, as if the very air had frozen. Only the crystal ball emitted a faint blue light, appearing even more mysterious in the dim surroundings.

Suddenly, a glint flashed in Lin Yun's eyes. He remembered seeing a similar pattern in a fragment of an ancient book in the family library. It mentioned that this pattern was an ancient combination of sealing runes. If they could be deciphered in a specific order and injected with the corresponding spiritual energy, perhaps the secret of the sealed object could be unlocked.

Lin Yun took a deep breath, slowly extended his hand, and attempted to touch the pattern on the crystal ball. As his fingers lightly touched the crystal, a bone-chilling chill instantly spread throughout his body, like thousands of ice needles piercing his skin, causing him to shudder. But he gritted his teeth, swallowing the discomfort and continuing to focus on his movements.

He began to follow the method described in the ancient texts he remembered, carefully following the lines of the pattern and injecting spiritual energy in a specific order. Every time he injected spiritual energy into a certain area, the pattern would light up slightly, as if responding to his actions.

When the other team members saw this scene, their eyes were filled with surprise and expectation. They knew that Lin Yun might have really found the key to cracking the secret of the crystal ball.

As Lin Yun continued to inject spiritual power, the light on the surface of the crystal ball became brighter and brighter, and those strange patterns gradually became clearer, as if they came alive, and began to slowly flow and change.

Just when Lin Yun was about to complete the last injection of spiritual power, the crystal ball suddenly vibrated violently, and a powerful force gushed out from the ball, violently bouncing Lin Yun away.

Lin Yun lost his balance and flew backwards. If the team members behind him had not reached out and grabbed him in time, he would have crashed into the stone pillar.

"Lin Yun, are you okay?" the team members asked anxiously.

Lin Yun steadied himself, wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said, "I'm fine. The defensive power of this crystal ball is really strong, but it should be unlocked soon."

After saying that, he adjusted his state again and prepared to try again.

This time, Lin Yun controlled the injection of spiritual power more carefully, striving for precision in every movement.

When he injected spiritual power into the last pattern again, the crystal ball vibrated more violently and the light became brighter than ever. The entire building was illuminated by the faint blue light.

Then, the light on the crystal ball suddenly retracted, and then slowly opened. A soft blue light emanated from it, enveloping everyone.

Everyone felt a warm and pure power surge into their bodies. The spiritual power that had been consumed by fighting and resisting the fog began to slowly recover, and some of the pain in their bodies seemed to be alleviated a lot.

"This...this crystal ball actually has such magical effects!" a team member exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone gathered around and looked into the crystal ball. Inside the ball was a jade slip emitting a colorful light. The jade slip looked extremely ancient, and the patterns and runes on it exuded a mysterious aura.

Lin Yun carefully removed the jade slip from the crystal ball and gently held it in his hand. When his spiritual power touched the jade slip, a huge amount of information instantly flooded into his mind.

The jade slip contained a profound cultivation technique, the "Creation Art of Heaven and Earth." This technique was unlike anything they had encountered before; it seemed to incorporate the creative power of heaven and earth, allowing practitioners to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth during practice, thereby achieving a transformation of spiritual power and a rapid advancement in their realm.

Lin Yun briefly informed the team members of the information he had felt, and everyone was surprised and happy after hearing it.

"Lin Yun, this is a great opportunity. You should practice quickly. Maybe you can solve the mystery of rebirth." Lin Xiao said excitedly.

Lin Yun shook his head and said, "Although this technique is excellent, we have all come here through life and death together. This opportunity should be shared by all of us. I think we can first bring this technique back to the family and have the elders study it to see if we can find a method suitable for everyone to practice together."

After hearing Lin Yun's words, everyone felt warm in their hearts. They knew very well the righteousness of Lin Yun's action.

Just as everyone was immersed in this unexpected gain, a melodious bell suddenly rang out from within the building. The bell echoed throughout the entire space, as if conveying some kind of message.

"This bell sound... is there something new?" a team member asked in confusion.

Everyone suddenly became alert and looked around, ready to deal with any new dangers that might arise.

As the bells echoed, some stone pillars in the building began to move slowly, and cracks appeared on the seemingly ordinary ground, from which some liquid emitting a strange glow seeped out.

"Everyone, be careful. It looks like something is going to happen to this building again." Lin Yun warned loudly.

Everyone cast spiritual shields and prepared for battle.

At this moment, some scorpion-like monsters, but of gigantic size, crawled out from the cracks. They were covered in hard shells, and the stingers on their tails flashed a dark green light, indicating that they were extremely poisonous.

"It's these monsters again, everyone, be careful of their poisonous stings!" Lin Yun shouted, drew his sword first, and rushed towards the nearest monster.

The other team members were not to be outdone. They used their own skills and engaged in a fierce life-and-death struggle with these monsters.

During the battle, Lin Yun discovered that although these monsters moved slightly slowly, their defenses were extremely strong, and ordinary attacks could hardly cause any substantial damage to them. Furthermore, they were adept at using their stingers for sneak attacks. Once stung, the team members' bodies would quickly become numb, and their spiritual energy would be hindered.

While battling the monster, Lin Yun pondered a countermeasure. He suddenly remembered reading in an ancient book about demonic beasts that this scorpion-like monster had a weak spot in the soft armor on its abdomen.

Thinking of this, Lin Yun seized the opportunity, dodged the attack of a monster, and suddenly stabbed at the soft armor on its abdomen.

The sword easily pierced the soft armor. The monster let out a shrill scream and then collapsed to the ground, no longer moving.

With this discovery, the team members followed Lin Yun's approach and began to attack the soft armor on the monsters' abdomens.

After a hard fight, everyone finally killed all the monsters.

At this time, the bells in the building stopped echoing, and the moving stone pillars and cracks that were oozing liquid returned to their original state.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from their foreheads. This sudden battle had consumed a lot of their spiritual energy and incurred many new injuries.

"Everyone, quickly recover your spiritual power and treat your wounds. We still have to continue exploring these ruins." Lin Yun said, his eyes full of determination.

Everyone nodded, took out the pills and took them, and began to circulate their spiritual power to heal their wounds.

When everyone had almost recovered, they stood up again and walked towards the depths of the ruins.

But before they had gone far, they encountered a new situation. A huge stone door appeared in front of them. The stone door was closed and engraved with complex and mysterious runes. The runes flickered with a faint light, as if telling an ancient story.

"This stone gate... doesn't look simple. I wonder what kind of mechanisms and traps are waiting for us." A team member said with a frown.

Lin Yun approached the stone door and carefully examined the runes on it. He tried to decipher their meaning, but they were too ancient and profound to comprehend immediately.

At this moment, the ground around the stone gate suddenly lit up with circles of light, forming strange patterns. These patterns seemed to have some subtle connection with the patterns on the surface of the crystal ball.

"Look everyone, this pattern seems to be related to the one on the crystal ball. Maybe the method of opening this stone door is related to the cracking of the crystal ball." Lin Yun said, with a thoughtful gleam in his eyes.

The other team members also gathered around and studied the patterns together.

Lin Yun closed his eyes and recalled the scene when he cracked the crystal ball, trying to find clues to open the stone door.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and had a bold guess in his mind. He injected spiritual power into the pattern on the ground around the stone gate in the same way as he injected spiritual power when cracking the crystal ball.

With the infusion of spiritual power, the light on the pattern became brighter and brighter, and the runes on the stone gate also flickered, as if they were activated.

"There's a response!" a team member shouted excitedly.

However, just as everyone was looking forward to the stone door opening, it suddenly shook violently, and a powerful force gushed out from the stone door, pushing everyone back a few steps.

"What's going on?" everyone exclaimed.

Before they could react, the runes on the stone gate shone brightly, and rays of light shot towards everyone like sharp arrows.

"Be careful!" Lin Yun shouted and hurriedly cast a spiritual shield to cover everyone.

The other team members also took defensive measures to resist the incoming light.

The impact of this light was extremely strong, constantly hitting the shield, making bursts of roaring sounds. The shield rippled under the impact of the light and was on the verge of collapse.

"Why would this stone gate suddenly attack us? Is our method of opening it wrong?" Lin Xiao said anxiously.

Lin Yun maintained his shield while thinking about countermeasures. He guessed that perhaps they had triggered some kind of defense mechanism of the stone gate, which led to the current situation.

Just as everyone was struggling to hold up the shield, the stone gate's attack suddenly stopped, the light gradually dissipated, the stone gate stopped shaking, and calm was restored.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but the doubts in their hearts grew even more.

"What should we do now? Should we continue trying to open it?" asked a team member.

Lin Yun stared at the stone gate, a flicker of determination in his eyes. He knew they had come this far and couldn't give up just because of this setback. Furthermore, behind this stone gate might lie the key to unlocking the secrets of the ruins, or even the mystery of rebirth.

"Keep trying, everyone be careful, we'll try a different method this time," said Lin Yun.

So, everyone gathered around the stone gate again, ready to continue exploring the secrets of the stone gate...
