Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation: My system is amazing
Chapter 62: Exploring the Ancient Sites, Surrounded by Dangers
As soon as Xiao Bei stepped into the ruins, a powerful restrictive force came over him, almost suffocating him.
"Oh my god! What a hell of a place! There's not even any wireless signal!" He couldn't help but complain. He felt like he had fallen into a deep forest where the signal was blocked.
What's even worse is that the circulation of spiritual energy in his body has become slow, like an old ox pulling a broken cart, which makes him very uneasy.
The interior of the ruins is eerie and dark, and the air is filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
Xiao Bei took every step carefully, fearing that he would trigger some trap.
This is no joke. If a "one-click cremation" package comes out, he will have nowhere to cry.
Suddenly, there was a light "click" sound under his feet, and Xiao Bei's heart was alarmed, "Oh no!" In a flash, countless sharp arrows shot from all directions, as dense as rain.
"Oh my god! They're serious!" Xiao Bei quickly used his body skills to dodge. The rain of arrows came too suddenly and was impossible to defend against.
He dodged awkwardly while complaining, "The designer of this ruins must be a Virgo. With so many mechanisms, does he have obsessive-compulsive disorder?"
The sharp arrow whizzed past with a sound of breaking through the air. Xiao Bei dodged left and right, and was in danger all around.
While dodging, he tried hard to observe the surrounding environment, hoping to find a way to crack the mechanism.
"Calm down! Calm down! Xiao Bei, you are a time traveler, this little scene is nothing!" He encouraged himself in his heart.
Just then, he noticed some strange symbols carved on the wall, which seemed to be an ancient writing.
"Could this be the key to cracking the mechanism?" Xiao Bei's mind moved, and he immediately concentrated and carefully observed the symbols.
He found that these symbols seemed to be arranged according to a certain pattern, vaguely revealing a mysterious power.
"Wait..." Xiao Bei's eyes suddenly focused on one of the symbols, "I seem to have seen this symbol somewhere..."
"Brother Xiao Bei, be careful!" Bei Li's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, his tone anxious.
"Beili?" Xiao Bei was startled and turned around to see...
Xiao Bei turned around suddenly, but found that there was no one behind him, only a faint green light flickering on the wall.
"Hallucination?" He wondered in his heart, could it be some kind of illusion in the ruins?
But Beili's voice was so real that he couldn't completely ignore it.
"I can't worry about so much. The most important thing is to crack the mechanism first!" Xiao Bei took a deep breath and refocused his attention on the symbols on the wall.
He tried hard to recall where he had seen similar symbols. His brain was working rapidly and all kinds of information flashed through his mind like a kaleidoscope.
"Wait! I remember!" Xiao Bei suddenly had an idea. "Isn't this the symbol I saw when I was studying ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics in college? Could this relic have some connection with ancient Egypt?"
Based on his understanding of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, he quickly deciphered the symbols on the wall and found that these symbols were indeed a similar form of writing, recording the method of opening the mechanism.
"I see!" Xiao Bei's lips curled up slightly, and he thought to himself, "Luckily, I took the Ancient Egyptian Civilization course in college. I didn't expect it to come in handy today!"
He followed the instructions of the symbols and touched several buttons in turn. After a few "clicks", the arrow rain mechanism stopped working and the surroundings returned to calm.
"Done!" Xiao Bei clapped his hands and breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, he noticed that next to the arrow rain mechanism stood a stone tablet engraved with ancient runes.
"What is this?" Xiao Bei walked forward curiously and carefully observed the runes on the stone tablet.
He discovered that although these runes were different from the symbols on the wall, they had some kind of intrinsic connection.
Relying on his research on various ancient characters and the translation assistance function provided by the system, Xiao Bei successfully deciphered the content of some runes.
These runes record the origin of the ruins and some important information, which is of great help to him in exploring the ruins.
"It looks like I'm going to get rich this time!" Xiao Bei rubbed his hands excitedly and continued to go deeper into the ruins.
As he went deeper, the space inside the ruins became larger and larger, and the surrounding scenery became more and more bizarre.
Suddenly, a deafening roar was heard and the ground began to shake.
"What is that?" Xiao Bei was shocked and quickly gripped the sword in his hand, looking ahead vigilantly.
I saw a huge monster slowly walking out of the darkness. It was covered with hard scales, its blood-red eyes emitted a fierce light, and its fangs were exposed in its mouth, which was chilling.
"Oh my god! What the hell is this thing?" Xiao Bei couldn't help but complain. This monster looked too ugly. It was simply an enlarged version of Godzilla.
The monster roared and pounced towards Xiao Bei.
"Come on! Let me see how powerful you are!" Xiao Bei was not afraid at all and swung his sword to meet the attack.
The monster's attack was extremely swift, and Xiao Bei could only keep dodging.
He used various spells to attack the monster's weaknesses, but the monster had thick skin and flesh, making it difficult to cause fatal damage.
During the battle, the monster's attack caused the walls of the ruins to shake, rocks fell one after another, and the entire ruins seemed like they would collapse at any time.
"This is too troublesome!" Xiao Bei dodged while thinking hard about countermeasures.
Suddenly, he noticed that there was a scale on the monster's neck that was slightly different in color, which seemed to be its weak point.
"It's right there!" Xiao Bei's eyes lit up and he had an idea in his mind.
He took a deep breath and prepared to give it a try...
"Xiao Bei!" An anxious voice came from a distance...
Beili paced back and forth outside the ruins, looking towards the entrance from time to time.
"Why has Brother Xiao Bei been gone for so long? I hope nothing has happened to him?" Her slender fingers tightly grasped the corner of his clothes, her heart full of worry.
The ruins are eerie and scary, and no one knows what dangers lie within.
She wanted to rush in and face it with Xiao Bei, but she knew that she was not strong enough and would only become a burden to him if she went in.
Inside the ruins, Xiao Bei's battle with the monster continues.
This monster has thick skin and strong attack power, and Xiao Bei can't do anything to it for a while.
"This guy must have eaten Jin Ke La, how come he is so tough!" He complained while nimbly dodging the monster's attacks.
Every dodge is extremely thrilling, and if you are not careful, you will be torn to pieces by the monster's claws.
During the fierce battle, Bei Li's figure would appear in Xiao Bei's mind from time to time. Her worried eyes and gentle smile gave him great motivation.
"For Beili, I can't fall here!"
While dodging a monster's attack, Xiao Bei accidentally caught a glimpse of a stone platform behind the monster. The stone platform was engraved with some complex runes, and it was flashing with strange light.
"It seems that this monster has been guarding that stone platform?" Xiao Bei's heart moved, and a bold idea came to his mind.
He guessed that this stone platform might be related to the evil cultivator's plan.
Rather than confronting this thick-skinned monster head-on, it is better to outsmart it.
Thinking of this, Xiao Bei changed his tactics. He no longer just dodged, but instead deliberately exposed his flaws to attract the monster's attention.
The monster was fooled and rushed towards Xiao Bei with a roar.
Xiao Bei dodged nimbly and then rushed towards the stone platform at an extremely fast speed.
"Want to run? No way!" The monster roared and turned around to chase Xiao Bei.
Xiao Bei was extremely fast and arrived next to the stone platform in the blink of an eye.
He carefully observed the runes on the stone platform and found that these runes were very similar to the runes he saw at the entrance of the ruins. They seemed to be an ancient formation.
"It is true!" Xiao Bei was secretly happy. It seemed that his guess was correct.
At this moment, the monster caught up, and its huge body pressed towards Xiao Bei like a mountain.
At the critical moment, Xiao Bei suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed on a rune in the center of the stone platform.
"Om-"
A dazzling light burst out from the stone platform, enveloping both Xiao Bei and the monster.
"What's this……"
After the dazzling light, Xiao Bei found himself in an unfamiliar space.
The space is not big, and the walls are covered with dense runes, emitting a heart-pounding evil aura.
"Oh my god, what the hell is this place? A teleportation array?" Xiao Bei complained.
Looking around, he found a black stone placed on the stone platform. There were some strange patterns carved on the surface of the stone, emitting bursts of coldness.
"Could this thing be some kind of magic weapon of an evil cultivator?" Xiao Bei approached the black stone cautiously, stretched out his hand to touch it, but was a little hesitant.
"What if this thing is a time bomb? I'm doomed, right?"
Just as Xiao Bei was hesitating, the system's voice suddenly rang out: "Ding! Detected the formation left by the demon cultivator. Do you accept the task of cracking it?"
"Break the formation?" Xiao Bei was stunned, then became excited.
"I was just worried about not being able to find a breakthrough. This system is really a timely rain!" He chose to accept the task without hesitation.
"Ding! Mission accepted. Host, please break the formation within the time limit. Mission reward: an advanced technique and some experience points."
"Advanced skills? I like it!" Xiao Bei rubbed his hands and immediately began to study the formation.
This formation was indeed extremely complicated, with various runes intertwined together, making Xiao Bei dizzy.
"This demon cultivator might be a reincarnated programmer. The code is too complicated!" He complained while trying hard to understand the meaning of the runes.
Fortunately, he had taken computer programming courses in college and was familiar with these complex symbols.
With the help of the system's auxiliary functions, he gradually sorted out the logic of the formation.
As time passed, more and more beads of sweat appeared on Xiao Bei's forehead.
This formation was far more complicated than he had imagined, and he felt like his brain was about to burn.
"No, I have to find a way to simplify it." He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
Suddenly, an idea came to him.
He took out a jade slip from his storage bag and began to carve on it.
He wanted to simplify the complex formation into a simple model so that it would be easier to find a way to crack it.
Time was running out, Xiao Bei didn't dare to slack off at all, his fingers moved quickly on the jade slip.
Finally, at the last moment, he completed the construction of the simplified model.
"It's done!" Xiao Bei excitedly clenched the jade slip, his eyes flashing with confidence.
He looked up at the formation, took a deep breath, and prepared to start cracking it.
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded: "I didn't expect you to be able to break my formation. I really underestimated you."
Xiao Bei turned around suddenly and saw a man in black clothes with a sinister face who had appeared in the space at some point.
The man held a black long sword in his hand, and the sword exuded a cold aura.
"Who are you?" Xiao Bei asked vigilantly.
The man sneered: "Who am I? You will find out soon." He raised his sword, pointed it at Xiao Bei, and said in a cold tone: "Now, you can die!"
"Oh my god!" Xiao Bei cursed in his heart and quickly dodged.
This demon cultivator's strength was far superior to his, and he was no match at all.
"Want to run?" The man sneered, and his figure flashed, and he instantly came in front of Xiao Bei. The long sword, with a sharp sword energy, slashed down at Xiao Bei's head.
Xiao Bei quickly raised his sword to block, but with a loud "clang" sound, his body was blown away and fell heavily to the ground.
"Cough cough..." Xiao Bei coughed up a mouthful of blood and felt like all his internal organs were displaced.
The demon cultivator was too powerful, and he had no power to fight back.
The man approached Xiao Bei step by step, with a cruel light in his eyes. "Boy, prepare to die!"
"Wait!" Xiao Bei suddenly shouted.
"What? Do you have any last words?" the man stopped and asked with a sneer.
Xiao Bei took a deep breath, and a cunning gleam flashed in his eyes.
"I want to ask you a question."
"what is the problem?"
"Did you...drop this golden sword or this silver sword?"
