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

Chapter 95: The Crisis of the Ruins and the Choice of Family Inheritance

Lin Yun and Su Yao were in the ruins palace filled with mystery and weirdness, listening to the low voices coming from all directions, and every syllable seemed to strike at their tense nerves.

Lin Yun knew they were in an extremely dangerous situation. Everything in the ruins was filled with an indescribable evil, and that voice lingered like a ghost, sending chills down his spine. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the sword, and the spiritual energy within it flickered faintly, as if echoing his nervousness.

The surroundings remained eerie and gloomy. The faintly glowing crystals inlaid in the palace's dome now seemed to flicker under the eerie sound, casting a hazy shadow over the entire palace, resembling a netherworld. The runes and patterns on the black jade floor beneath their feet continued to flow like living things, each shift in shape seemingly plotting something in secret.

"Su Yao, the situation is becoming more and more difficult. We have to be more careful." Lin Yun said in a low voice, scanning the surroundings vigilantly, not missing any corner where danger might be lurking.

Su Yao followed Lin Yun closely. Her face was slightly pale, but her eyes were firm. She responded, "Well, I know, Lin Yun. This place is weird everywhere. We must find a way to deal with it and unlock the secrets here."

Lin Yun took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He decided to find the source of the strange sound and thoroughly understand what was causing it. He slowly moved in the direction of the sound, taking each step with extreme caution, fearing that he would trigger some unknown mechanism or provoke hidden danger.

As he approached, he could sense a strange spiritual wave emanating from the statue and the surrounding ancient instruments. This wave seemed to be closely connected to the strange sound. The wave was not strong, but it was extremely obscure and difficult to understand, as if it concealed endless secrets that were beyond comprehension.

"Su Yao, I feel that this sound is related to the spiritual fluctuations emitted by these instruments and statues. We need to get closer and take a look." Lin Yun said softly to Su Yao. Although his voice was soft, it revealed a sense of determination.

Su Yao nodded, and she formed seals with her hands, ready to cast spells at any time to deal with any unexpected situation. The two of them walked cautiously towards the direction of the statues and the instruments. With each step closer, the feeling of oppression became stronger, as if a pair of invisible eyes were peeping at them in the dark.

When they were within a few steps of the statue and the instruments, suddenly, the huge statue moved.

The statue's eyes, which had been flashing with an eerie red light, suddenly shone brighter, like two burning flames, illuminating the entire palace in a crimson glow. Then, the statue's beast-like head slightly raised, and it let out a deep and powerful roar. This roar echoed throughout the palace, making Lin Yun and Su Yao's ears buzz.

At the same time, the ancient instruments around them seemed to come alive. The pale blue flames in the massive incense burner suddenly shot up, the previously temperatureless flames now emitting a fiery heat that seemed to devour everything. The black liquid in the water vat also began to churn violently, bubbling continuously and making a gurgling sound that grew louder and louder, as if something was about to break free.

"Oh no, this statue and the equipment have come alive! Lin Yun, what should we do?" Su Yao shouted anxiously, her voice trembling a little in the chaos.

Lin Yun was also shocked, but he knew panicking would be futile and he had to come up with a plan quickly. He quickly channeled his spiritual energy into the sword, which instantly shone brightly, exuding a fierce aura, as if protesting against these unruly individuals.

"Su Yao, don't panic! Let's see if we can find their weaknesses first, and then think of ways to deal with them." Lin Yun shouted loudly, his eyes fixed on the crazy and strange statue, trying to find an opportunity to take advantage of it from its every move.

At this extremely tense moment, Lin Yun forced himself to calm down and concentrated on observing the changes in the statues and the instruments.

He discovered that every time the statue roared, the runes and patterns on it would pause for a moment, no longer flowing and changing as before. Moreover, during this pause, the statue's power seemed to weaken slightly, as if it had consumed some of its energy in the process of charging and roaring, requiring a brief adjustment.

Looking at the instruments, like the incense burner burning with a faint blue flame, when the flame reaches its peak, it will retreat for a moment, the intensity of the flame will decrease, and the scorching heat it emits will also be much weaker. The black liquid in the water tank will also calm down for a moment after violently churning, as if entering a brief period of rest after completing a burst of energy.

"Su Yao, I seem to have found their weakness! After the statue roars, the runes stagnate and the power weakens. The equipment will also have a short period of calm after the energy burst. Let's take advantage of this time to attack them!" A glimmer of hope flashed in Lin Yun's eyes, and he shouted loudly to Su Yao.

Su Yao was cheered up when she heard this, and immediately responded: "Okay, Lin Yun, I will cooperate with you to the best of my ability!"

At this moment, although they were in extreme danger, a glimmer of hope ignited in the hearts of both of them, thinking that perhaps they could use this to turn the unfavorable situation of the battle around.

Lin Yun silently encouraged himself. He recalled his family's unrivaled reputation, a name known throughout the world of immortal cultivation. His ancestors had weathered countless hardships and dangers, never flinching, always protecting the family's honor and heritage.

Now, as a member of the family, facing the many crises in the ruins, how can he give up easily? He knows that his every move at this moment is not only related to the safety of himself and Su Yao, but also to whether he can solve the mystery between the family and the Shadow Cult and protect the honor of the family.

"I must succeed and not bring shame to my family!" Lin Yun swore secretly in his heart. He gripped the sword tightly in his hand, his eyes revealing incomparable determination.

He turned his head and looked at Su Yao, who was equally determined beside him. A warm current surged in his heart. With her by his side, he seemed to have more courage to face difficulties.

Lin Yun saw the perfect moment. When the statue roared again, and the runes on its body stagnated and its power weakened, he shouted, "Now!"

The sword in his hand shone brightly, and he concentrated all his spiritual power on the tip of the sword, unleashing his strongest strike. With unstoppable force, the sword struck the statue's throat, precisely where he had observed it to be relatively weak.

At the same time, Su Yao quickly formed seals with her hands, muttered something, and cast an auxiliary spell to enhance the power of the attack, increasing the power of Lin Yun's sword to the extreme.

The tip of the sword accurately cut the statue's throat. A dazzling light flashed, accompanied by a shrill scream, and a deep crack was cut in the statue's throat.

Without the protection of its throat, the statue immediately fell into chaos. Its movements became slow, and its originally ferocious momentum also decreased significantly.

At the same time, Lin Yun and Su Yao seized the opportunity during the lull after the energy burst. Su Yao cast a spell, sending a series of spiritual attacks towards the burning incense burners and the tumbling water tanks, successfully disrupting their rhythm and temporarily preventing them from posing a significant threat to the two.

Lin Yun and Su Yao gritted their teeth, seized the opportunity, and continued to launch more fierce attacks. Finally, they succeeded in temporarily suppressing the statues and those instruments, making them no longer as powerful a threat as before.

After successfully suppressing the statues and the instruments, Lin Yun and Su Yao did not let down their guard. They knew that this was only a temporary solution to the immediate crisis, and there must be more secrets and dangers hidden in the ruins.

They continued to explore the palace, heading deeper into the ruins. As they went deeper, the surroundings seemed to become more mysterious.

New murals began to appear on the walls. The colors of these murals were a bit mottled, but the content depicted on them could still be clearly seen. The murals seemed to be telling an ancient story. There were some people in strange costumes surrounding a mysterious building. The architectural style was somewhat similar to this ruin.

Amidst the crowd, one figure stood out. It was a man in ornate robes, holding a brilliantly glowing scepter, seemingly presiding over some important ceremony. Those surrounding him all showed reverence, kneeling in worship toward the building.

"Lin Yun, look at these murals. They seem to be telling a very ancient story. Maybe it is related to these ruins or the Shadow Cult." Su Yao stopped and said while looking at the murals carefully.

Lin Yun also walked over. He looked at the murals, and a strong curiosity surged in his heart. He wondered if the content depicted in these murals could be the key to unlocking the secrets here.

"Well, let's take a closer look. Maybe we can find some useful clues from these murals." Lin Yun said.

So, the two of them stopped in front of the murals and began to carefully observe the details of each mural, trying to interpret more information from them.
