Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation: My system is amazing
Chapter 37: Shadow Returns, Bravely Exploring the Tiger's Lair
Xiao Bei hugged Bei Li back to the room, comforted her softly, and after confirming that she was okay, he gently closed the door and disappeared into the night.
The moonlight tonight is exceptionally bright, but it cannot illuminate the coldness in his eyes.
Shadow, you are courting death!
After Xiao Bei was promoted to an inner door hero, he became famous, but he was not carried away by victory.
He knew that the tentacles of the Shadow Organization were spread all over the sect, and if the roots were not eradicated, they would grow again in the spring breeze.
We must take the initiative to completely destroy this cancer!
However, Xiao Bei soon discovered that his every move was under the surveillance of the Shadow Organization.
Wherever he went, he could always feel the vague sense of being watched, like a thorn in his back, making him extremely uncomfortable.
"Tsk, these rats are really annoying." Xiao Bei cursed in his heart, but a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Since you can't avoid it, then use the enemy's strategy against you!
In a dark room at the headquarters of the Shadow Organization, several men in black were gathered around a table with a portrait of Xiao Bei on it.
"This kid has been a little too arrogant recently. We must teach him a lesson!" a burly man in black said viciously.
"Boss, we have sent out our most elite killers to ensure the completion of the mission!" another man in black said flatteringly.
"Hmph, you must succeed this time, otherwise you will be beheaded!" The burly man in black said in a cold tone, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Each of these killers possesses unique skills and is proficient in the art of assassination. Their movements are as silent and stealthy as ghosts.
They lurked in the dark like poisonous snakes, waiting for the best opportunity to give Xiao Bei a fatal blow.
Xiao Bei seemed to be strolling leisurely in the sect, but in fact he was secretly observing the movements around him.
He was keenly aware of several obscure auras approaching him, and a playful arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Here it comes..." He whispered to himself, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
He walked to a secluded bamboo forest, pretending to enjoy the scenery, but in fact he was secretly accumulating strength, preparing to give these killers a "surprise".
Suddenly, several black shadows rushed out from the depths of the bamboo forest and pounced towards Xiao Bei like ghosts!
Xiao Bei's mouth curled up slightly, "Can you finally hold it in?"
Xiao Bei was humming a little tune and strolling around seemingly casually, but in fact he had secretly turned on the system scanning function to take in every movement around him.
He walked to a quiet bamboo forest, pretended to be attracted by a bunch of strange magical herbs, and squatted down to observe them carefully.
"Tsk tsk, this three-leaf ghost orchid looks quite unique, but I wonder if it is poisonous..." He muttered to himself, his fingers gently touching the leaves of the magical herb.
Seeing this, the killers in the dark thought that Xiao Bei was defenseless, and a glimmer of excitement flashed in their eyes.
"Now!" The leading man in black shouted, and several black shadows shot out like arrows, and all kinds of hidden weapons and spells attacked Xiao Bei like raindrops!
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh--" the sound of breaking air resounded throughout the bamboo forest.
"Oh, this grass is quite prickly..." Xiao Bei pretended to exclaim in surprise, and the next second, he disappeared from the spot like a phantom.
"Boom——" The killers' attacks all missed, and holes were blasted on the ground.
"What?!" The killers were shocked and looked at the empty ground in disbelief.
"Everyone, sorry to have kept you waiting." Xiao Bei's voice came from behind them, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
The killers turned around suddenly, only to find that Xiao Bei had appeared behind them at some point, with a faint golden light on his body.
"System, activate the Vajra Body Protection!" Xiao Bei muttered in his heart, and the system instantly improved his defense capabilities.
The killers became angry and attacked again.
Swords flashed, spells flew, and the bamboo forest instantly turned into a battlefield.
Xiao Bei was agile and moved freely, weaving through the attacks like a dragon, handling them with ease.
Sometimes he would throw a punch, knocking a killer away; sometimes he would cast a simple spell to neutralize the opponent's attack.
"That's it? Too weak!" Xiao Bei curled his lips in disdain.
Senior Brother Ma, who was hiding in the dark, was terrified. He clenched his fists and was ready to rush out to help at any time.
Xiao Bei secretly sent him a message: "Brother Ma, don't be anxious, just watch the show first."
The killers became more and more frightened as they fought. They found that Xiao Bei's defense was amazing and their attacks could not cause any substantial damage to him.
"What's wrong with this kid? Is he wearing an iron vest?" a killer exclaimed.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's attack together. I don't believe he can hold on!" the leading man in black roared.
The killers attacked again, each move deadly.
The corners of Xiao Bei's mouth rose slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"It's time to end this farce..." He took a deep breath and slowly raised his right hand...
Xiao Bei took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in his dantian surged wildly.
"Thunder is coming!" He shouted loudly, and swung his right hand violently. A dazzling lightning roared out like a mad dragon, instantly tearing a huge hole in the killers' encirclement.
"Oh shit!" The killers were so scared that they ran away in all directions.
"Want to run? Too late!" Xiao Bei sneered, and his figure flashed, appearing behind a killer like a ghost, and knocked him unconscious with a knife.
"Next one!" Xiao Bei did the same thing and knocked down the remaining killers one by one. His movements were clean and neat, like chopping melons and vegetables.
"With your level, you dare to assassinate me? You really overestimate your own abilities!" He clapped his hands with a look of disdain.
"Oh, I originally wanted to leave someone alive to ask about the situation, but I was too harsh and killed them all..." Xiao Bei scratched his head, feeling a little annoyed.
He began to search the killers' bodies, hoping to find some useful clues.
"Huh? What is this?" Xiao Bei searched a black token from a man in black, which had a strange pattern engraved on it.
"This pattern... looks a little familiar..." He frowned and looked at the token carefully.
At this moment, a figure came running over. It was Bei Li.
When she saw the corpses all over the ground, her face turned pale instantly. She threw herself into Xiao Bei's arms, hugged him tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Bei, are you okay? I was scared to death!"
"It's okay, they're just a few minions, nothing to worry about." Xiao Bei gently stroked Bei Li's hair and comforted her softly.
"What should I do if something happens to you..." Beili raised his head, his eyes full of worry and love.
"Don't worry, I promised you that I would always be with you, and I will definitely do it." Xiao Bei smiled gently, but his eyes gradually became deeper.
He looked at the black token in his hand, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart...
"This pattern... I seem to have seen it somewhere..." He muttered to himself, his eyes falling on an inconspicuous small word on the back of the token - "C3".
"Bingsan... Bingsan..." Xiao Bei repeated these two words over and over again. Suddenly, he raised his head abruptly, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes!
"I see!"
Xiao Bei slapped his thigh suddenly, scaring Bei Li.
"I know! C3! It's the No. 3 mine in the inner sect's C area!" He had seen the sect map when he was on a mission before and was deeply impressed by this number.
Mine No. 3 in Area C has been abandoned for many years because the ore vein has been exhausted, making it a perfect place for rats like Shadow to hide.
"Mine? Then let's go report to the elders and ask them to send people to encircle and destroy it!" Beili said anxiously.
Xiao Bei shook his head. "It's too late. What if we alert them and they run away? Besides, the elders are busy with all sorts of things, so they don't have time to deal with such trivial matters." A cunning glint flashed in his eyes. "Let's go by ourselves and catch them in the trap!"
"But... it's too dangerous!" Beili looked at him worriedly.
Xiao Bei put his arm around Bei Li's shoulders and whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, I have unique skills and a system to protect me. A mere shadow is nothing to be afraid of! Besides, don't I have a reliable teammate?" He winked at someone not far away.
Senior Brother Ma flashed out from behind the tree, his face full of excitement, "Junior Brother Xiao, how can I help you?" After witnessing Xiao Bei's fight like a god just now, his admiration for Xiao Bei was like a surging river, endless.
Xiao Bei handed the black token to Senior Brother Ma, "This is the token of the Shadow Organization. Take it and we will go to the Bingsan Mine to meet them."
"Okay!" Senior Brother Ma took the token, rubbed his hands, and was eager to try.
At night, Xiao Bei and Senior Brother Ma sneaked into the Bingsan mine.
The entrance to the mine was overgrown with weeds, and there was a chilling wind blowing, emitting a creepy atmosphere.
"This place is eerie and a bit creepy..." Senior Brother Ma rubbed his arms and said in a low voice.
"What are you afraid of? I'm here!" Xiao Bei patted Senior Brother Ma on the shoulder, looking fearless.
He turned on the system scanning function and carefully explored the situation inside the mine.
The mine was pitch black, with no sight of one's hand in front of one's face. Only the green light from the system scan flickered in the darkness, outlining the outline of the mine.
The two of them groped forward, and suddenly, Xiao Bei stopped and grabbed Senior Brother Ma.
"What's wrong?" Senior Brother Ma asked nervously.
Xiao Bei pointed ahead and whispered, "Look..."
Senior Brother Ma looked in the direction of Xiao Bei's finger and saw a faint light in front of him. He could also hear some faint noisy sounds...
"It seems... there is someone..." Senior Brother Ma swallowed and tightened the hilt of the sword in his hand.
Xiao Bei's mouth curled up slightly, "It seems we have found the right place..." He took a deep breath, a cold light flashed in his eyes, "Let's go!"
