Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation: My system is amazing

Chapter 707: Crisis Imminent: Xiao Bei's Response

The dazzling light receded like the tide, and the scene behind the stone gate gradually became clear. It was not the smooth road as expected, but still a deep cave. However, strange runes flashed on the cave wall, emitting a faint fluorescence.

Just as everyone was about to step in, a deep, hoarse voice, like a whisper from hell, rang in their ears: "Do you think this is the end? The real test has just begun..."

This sudden sound made Xiao Bei and others stop abruptly. They looked at each other, their faces full of confusion and worry.

The air around them seemed to freeze, and a tense atmosphere began to spread.

Beili subconsciously held Xiao Bei's hand tightly, her fingertips were cold.

"Who is playing tricks?" Lingfeng looked around vigilantly, and the long sword in his hand made a humming sound, as if ready to be unsheathed at any time.

The cave was silent, with only the strange runes flashing with faint light, like a pair of prying eyes.

"This sound..." Tianjizi calculated with his fingers, frowning, "It seems that it does not come from here, but some kind of long-distance sound transmission technique." He looked up at the top of the cave, his eyes deep, as if he wanted to see through the layers of rocks and understand the source of the sound.

A chill ran down Xiao Bei's spine and into his heart. He felt an inexplicable sense of crisis, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.

"Have the elders ever mentioned a similar situation?" He turned to the accompanying immortal elder and asked anxiously.

The immortal elder stroked his long beard, his expression solemn.

“I have only heard some vague legends. It is said that an ancient ferocious beast is sealed deep in this cave. Once the seal is broken, it will bring about a catastrophe…” His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of fear that was hard to conceal.

Xiao Bei's heart sank. The elder's answer was not what he wanted.

He had expected to get some useful information from the elder, but he didn't expect to get even more disturbing news.

He frowned tightly, and anxiety surged into his heart like a tide.

Lingfeng, Mo Yuan and Tianjizi also fell into deep thought, their faces full of anxiety.

"It seems that we must find out the source of this sound and the purpose behind it as soon as possible." Xiao Bei took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

He clenched his fists and gazed determinedly into the depths of the cave. There was darkness there, like the mouth of an abyss, waiting for them to step in...

"Xiao Bei..." Bei Li called his name softly, with a hint of trembling in her voice.

She wanted to say something but didn't know how to start. She could only hold his hand tightly, as if this could bring him some comfort.

Xiao Bei felt the coldness of her palm, and his heart ached. He took her hand in his own and squeezed it hard, but said nothing. He simply walked towards the darkness...

Bei Li looked at Xiao Bei's furrowed brows, and her heart felt as if being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, making her feel suffocated.

She wanted to share his worries, but she didn't know how to start or how to smooth out the wrinkles between his brows.

She bit her lower lip, almost breaking the delicate skin. The faint taste of blood spread in her mouth, but it did not ease her anxiety at all.

The runes flashing in the cave seemed to turn into mocking smiles in her eyes, mocking her powerlessness.

The oppressive atmosphere surged like a tide, drowning her.

"I'll go and take a look." Ling Feng suddenly spoke, breaking the stagnant air.

Without waiting for Xiao Bei's response, he turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared into the deep cave.

He was so fast that it caught people off guard.

Xiao Bei only had time to stretch out his hand, but caught nothing.

"Lingfeng!" Xiao Bei shouted softly, with a bad premonition rising in his heart.

Lingfeng has always been calm, but his actions today were unusually impulsive.

This made him even more uneasy. Could there be some danger in this cave that they had not noticed?

"Maybe he just wants to help." Mo Yuan said lightly, but his eyes were fixed on the direction where Ling Feng disappeared.

Although his tone was calm, there was a subtle glint of worry in his eyes.

Tianjizi said nothing, but just calculated silently and muttered to himself.

His old face was covered with sweat, as if he was fighting a tough battle.

Time passed minute by minute, and the cave remained silent. Only the strange runes flickered, as if mocking their ignorance and powerlessness.

Xiao Bei felt more and more uneasy. He felt an inexplicable fear, as if something terrible was about to happen.

Suddenly, a muffled sound came from deep in the cave, followed by a shrill scream.

Although the sound was faint, it was clearly heard by everyone.

"It's Lingfeng!" Beili exclaimed, his face turning pale in an instant.

Xiao Bei suddenly raised his head, his eyes as sharp as a knife, piercing straight into the depths of the cave.

"Go!" He growled, and his figure flashed and disappeared into the darkness.

Mo Yuan, Tianjizi and the elders of the immortal clan followed closely behind, leaving Beili alone standing there, his face pale and trembling all over.

"Lingfeng..." She murmured the name. At this moment, a cold voice came from behind her: "Are you worried about him? Soon, you will be reunited..."

The deep cave is like the throat of a giant beast, swallowing up all light. Only the runes emit a faint fluorescence, as erratic as a ghost fire.

The spiritual wind turned into a wisp of green smoke and shuttled through the cave, its keen senses capturing the movements around it.

A cold breath approached quietly, and Lingfeng's heart was filled with alarm. The long sword in his hand was unsheathed like a silver snake. The sword light cut through the darkness and illuminated a small area.

However, the power lurking in the darkness is not a physical entity, but an elusive shadow.

Sometimes it condenses into sharp claws, sometimes turns into spikes, constantly attacking Lingfeng.

Lingfeng's figure flickered in the darkness, like a lone boat swaying in a storm, surrounded by danger.

He felt a strong sense of oppression and his breathing became rapid.

The clanging sound of metal colliding echoed in the cave, sparks flew, and illuminated Lingfeng's tense face.

He gritted his teeth, brandished his sword, and resisted the attack of the dark power, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.

"Lingfeng!" Xiao Bei was anxious when he heard the sound of fighting coming from deep in the cave.

He ignored everything and turned into a golden light, rushing towards the direction of Lingfeng.

Behind him, Bei Li's anxious cry echoed in the cave: "Xiao Bei, be careful!" The voice was full of worry and love, like a warm current flowing through Xiao Bei's heart.

A sense of guilt welled up in his heart. He knew Beili was always worried about his safety, but he put her in danger again and again.

"Li'er, wait for me to come back!" Xiao Bei muttered to himself, and increased his speed a bit.

He must get to Lingfeng as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

Deep in the cave, Lingfeng's figure became increasingly blurred, and the attacks of the dark forces became increasingly fierce.

He felt his strength gradually draining away, and the sword in his hand became heavy.

"Xiao Bei, hurry..." Ling Feng used up his last bit of strength and let out a weak cry.

Just as the spiritual wind was about to be swallowed by the darkness, a golden light broke through the darkness and illuminated the entire cave.

Xiao Bei's figure appeared in front of Ling Feng like a god descending from heaven, carrying a powerful pressure.

"I'm late..." Xiao Bei looked at Ling Feng's embarrassed appearance, his heart tightened, and he said in a deep voice.

Golden light circulated around Xiao Bei, like a scorching sun that dispelled the darkness around him.

He swung the long sword in his hand, and the sword energy was rampant, forcing back the shadow that was wrapped around the spiritual wind.

Lingfeng took the opportunity to retreat, gasping for breath, his face as pale as paper.

"Are you okay?" Xiao Bei asked with concern, while looking vigilantly at the darkness around him.

"I'm fine, it's just that this power is a bit strange and elusive." Ling Feng shook his head.

Xiao Bei nodded, his eyes scanning the surrounding caves.

He could feel a chilling aura in the air, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, which was creepy.

"Be careful, it's coming again!" Lingfeng suddenly exclaimed and drew the sword in his hand again.

In the darkness, shadows surged again, rushing towards them like a tide.

Xiao Bei snorted coldly, and the long sword in his hand shone with golden light. The sword energy was like a rainbow, chopping the attacking shadow into pieces.

Ling Feng also cooperated with Xiao Bei's attack, and the two joined forces to force back the dark forces.

Shadows rolled in the cave, making bursts of roars, as if roaring unwillingly.

Xiao Bei and Ling Feng stood side by side, their eyes firm and fearless.

"Is that all you can do?" Xiao Bei said proudly.

The dark power seemed to sense Xiao Bei's contempt and surged even more wildly, emitting bursts of shrill screams.

The runes in the cave also flickered more violently, as if responding to the roar of the dark forces.

Xiao Bei swung the sword in his hand more rapidly, and the sword energy was like a dragon, wreaking havoc in the cave.

Ling Feng assisted from the side, constantly harassing the dark forces, preventing them from concentrating their attacks on Xiao Bei.

With the tacit cooperation of the two, the dark power was gradually suppressed, and it let out waves of unwilling roars.

Finally, with a shrill scream, the dark power completely dissipated and the cave returned to peace.

Xiao Bei and Ling Feng both breathed a sigh of relief, with victorious smiles on their faces.

Mo Yuan, Tianjizi and the elders of the immortal clan who came from nearby looked at Xiao Bei with admiration in their eyes.

Just when everyone thought the crisis was over, that deep, hoarse voice rang out again, like a whisper from hell, echoing in their ears: "Foolish mortals, do you think you've won just like this? The real danger has just begun... Remember, your enemy is among you..."

As soon as the mysterious messenger finished speaking, the cave fell into deathly silence again.
