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

Chapter 716: Exploring the Mysterious Temple: Xiao Bei’s First Arrival

The magnificent palace floats above the clouds, like the residence of gods, solemn and mysterious.

Xiao Bei stared at it, his deep eyes flashing with curiosity, but also with a hint of imperceptible vigilance.

The ancient atmosphere emanating from the palace seemed to span across eternity of time and space, carrying with it a heart-pounding pressure.

He subconsciously tightened the jade pendant in his hand, rubbing the mysterious runes on it with his fingertips, and a warm energy slowly flowed into his body.

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

Beili held Xiao Bei's hand tightly, her fingertips were slightly cold. She looked at him worriedly, the golden reflection of the palace reflected in her clear eyes.

"Xiao Bei, do we really have to go in? I have a feeling...something ominous is going on." Her voice was soft, but trembling slightly.

Xiao Bei held Bei Li's hand with his backhand and gave her a reassuring look.

"Don't worry, I will protect you." His tone was firm, but it couldn't hide the solemnity in his heart.

Lingfeng and Tianjizi also stood aside with serious expressions. They both felt that this palace was unusual.

The ancient talisman master Mo Yuan silently observed the energy fluctuations around the palace, his brows furrowed, as if he was calculating something.

Everyone flew on their swords and slowly approached the floating palace.

As the distance got closer, the grandeur of the palace became more shocking. The golden glazed tiles sparkled in the sun, and the carved beams and painted buildings were exquisite.

However, just as they were about to touch the palace, an invisible barrier suddenly appeared, blocking them out.

"It's a restriction!" Tianjizi exclaimed, his face suddenly changed.

The power of this restriction was so strong that it separated them from the palace like an insurmountable chasm.

Xiao Bei frowned, golden light surged around him, and powerful energy fluctuations shook the surrounding air.

"Xiao Bei, don't be impulsive!" Bei Li shouted anxiously. She could feel the horror of this restriction, as if it contained destructive power.

However, Xiao Bei had already made up his mind. He roared, concentrated all his immortal energy into one point, and fiercely slammed into the invisible barrier...

"Crack!" With a crisp sound, Ling Feng groaned and fell backwards suddenly...

Lingfeng groaned, staggered, and fell backwards like a kite with a broken string.

The recoil force of the restriction was extremely fierce, leaving a clearly visible charred palm print on his chest, and his clothes were torn, revealing a bleeding wound.

He curled up on the ground in pain, his rapid breathing was particularly clear above the silent clouds.

"Lingfeng!" Beili exclaimed and wanted to go forward to check, but was stopped by Xiao Bei.

"Don't go over there. The power of the restriction has not dissipated yet. It's dangerous." Xiao Bei's voice was low, and his eyes were fixed on the barrier that was emitting a bright white light.

Lingfeng's pain conflicted with their eagerness to explore, and the depressing atmosphere made them feel suffocated.

Tianjizi, contrary to his usual behavior, did not immediately think about how to break the ban. Instead, he suggested: "Why don't we go around the palace first and check it out. Maybe we can find other entrances or clues." His suggestion was unexpected. Xiao Bei pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Lingfeng was injured, so a forceful attack was obviously unwise. Although Tianjizi's proposal was conservative, it was the safest method at present.

A feeling of doubt arose in everyone's hearts, and the tense atmosphere eased slightly.

They flew carefully around the palace. The golden glazed tiles sparkled brightly in the sun. The walls of the palace were carved with intricate patterns that seemed to tell ancient stories.

The air is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood, which blends with the solemn atmosphere of the palace, adding to the mystery.

After walking around half a circle, they found a hidden cave entrance on the back of the palace. The entrance was covered by dense vines and it was difficult to find without careful observation.

On the vines, there are twinkling blue lights, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, beautiful yet strange.

Xiao Bei reached out and pushed aside the vines, and a cold breath hit his face, making him shiver.

He turned around to look at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Here..." Before he finished speaking, a harsh sound of metal friction came from deep in the cave, breaking the surrounding silence.

The sound of metal friction was getting closer and closer, accompanied by heavy footsteps, and a tall figure slowly walked out from the depths of the cave.

It was a puppet made of metal, covered with ancient runes and shining with a faint blue light.

It held a huge battle axe in its hand, the axe blade shining coldly and emitting a chilling murderous aura.

After the puppet appeared, without any hesitation, it immediately swung its battle axe and chopped towards Xiao Bei and others.

The sharp axe wind cut through the air with a whistling sound and headed straight for Xiao Bei's face.

Xiao Bei dodged quickly, and the huge battle axe chopped the ground with a deafening sound, creating a deep dent in the ground and sending gravel flying.

"Be careful! These puppets have extremely strong attack power!" Tianjizi warned loudly, and at the same time quickly retreated to keep a distance from the puppets.

Xiao Bei was fending off the puppet's attack while protecting Bei Li. Bei Li tightly grasped Xiao Bei's sleeve, her eyes full of worry, but she did not panic. Instead, she tried to stay calm and not add burden to Xiao Bei.

"Xiao Bei, you have to be careful!" Bei Li said softly. Although her voice was soft, it was full of power and gave Xiao Bei great encouragement.

Seeing Bei Li's determined eyes, Xiao Bei felt a warm current in his heart. He swung the sword in his hand more firmly, dissolving the puppet's attacks one by one.

Lingfeng also cheered up and joined the battle. The long whip in his hand danced like a snake, hitting the puppet from time to time, making a crisp sound.

The puppets' attacks became more and more fierce, and the surrounding space was affected by the battle. The wind was howling, sand and rocks were flying, and the dangerous atmosphere continued to rise.

Mo Yuan stood aside, constantly changing runes in his hands. Golden runes flew towards the puppet, forming a defensive barrier to resist the puppet's attack.

"These puppets seem to have no sense of pain, and their power is endless. If we continue like this, we will be exhausted to death sooner or later!" Ling Feng said breathlessly. He was already wounded in many places, and his clothes were stained with blood.

Xiao Bei also felt the pressure. Although the puppets' attacks were disorganized, they were extremely powerful and tireless. Their physical strength was being consumed rapidly.

At this moment, Xiao Bei noticed that the puppet's attack trajectory seemed to have a certain pattern, and each attack would leave a brief pause in the air.

"Senior Mo Yuan, I have discovered some patterns..." Xiao Bei said to Mo Yuan while resisting the attack of the puppet.

Mo Yuan nodded slightly, motioning Xiao Bei to continue.

Xiao Bei told Mo Yuan about the attack patterns of the puppets he had observed. Mo Yuan pondered for a moment.

"Okay, I know what to do!" Mo Yuan said, and began to quickly form seals with his hands. Complex runes in his hands flashed with golden light...

He suddenly raised his head, staring sharply at the puppet's next attack point, and shouted in a low voice: "Now!"

As soon as Mo Yuan finished speaking, a golden light flashed, and a complex rune formation instantly appeared under the feet of the puppet.

The puppet's battle axe chopped down again, but it landed right in the center of the formation.

The formation shone brightly, and a powerful suction force sucked the puppet firmly in, and no matter how it struggled, it could not break free.

The flickering blue light on the puppet gradually dimmed, and its metal body made a "cracking" sound, as if it would collapse at any time.

"Success!" Lingfeng shouted excitedly, and the pain in his body seemed to be relieved a lot.

Beili also breathed a sigh of relief, a relieved smile on his face.

Xiao Bei looked at the trapped puppet, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment. The admiring looks from the people around him made him more confident.

Mo Yuan walked over to the trapped puppet and carefully observed the runes on it, muttering to himself, "These runes... seem to be some kind of ancient sealing technique..."

Tianjizi also came over and observed the puppet carefully, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.

"The source of power for these puppets doesn't seem to be ordinary immortal power..."

Xiao Bei walked to the entrance of the cave and pushed aside the remaining vines. The entrance was pitch black and bottomless, as if it led to another world.

A cold breath came from the depths of the cave, making people shudder.

He turned around and looked at everyone, "Let's go in." His tone was firm and unquestionable.

Everyone nodded and expressed their agreement.

Lingfeng took a healing pill, adjusted his breath, and prepared to face the next challenge.

Beili held Xiao Bei's hand tightly, her eyes firm and without any fear.

Just as they were about to enter the cave, something strange happened.

A black mist suddenly gushed out from the depths of the cave, rolling like a huge black dragon, sweeping towards them with a suffocating feeling of oppression.

In the black fog, you can vaguely see some twisted figures, making shrill roars that make people shudder.

"Be careful!" Xiao Bei protected Bei Li behind him and stared vigilantly at the approaching black fog.

"What is this?" Lingfeng exclaimed. He had never seen such a strange sight.

Tianjizi's face was solemn, with a hint of fear in his eyes, "This... I'm afraid it's..."

Before he could finish his words, he was swallowed by the black mist and disappeared.

"Tianjizi!" Lingfeng shouted in horror and wanted to rush forward, but was pulled back by Xiao Bei.

"Don't be impulsive. The situation is unclear now. Any rash action will only result in your death." Xiao Bei's voice was low, his eyes fixed on the rolling black mist.

"Then what should we do?" Bei Li grabbed Xiao Bei's sleeve tightly and asked in a trembling voice.

Xiao Bei took a deep breath, his eyes determined, "Go in!"
