Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation: My system is amazing
Chapter 717 Danger in the Palace: Xiao Bei Holds Firm
Xiao Bei looked at the surging black fog and took a deep breath, "Go in!" Before he finished speaking, he had already stepped into the unknown darkness.
The hem of the clothes was blown by the mist, making a rustling sound, like the low roar of a beast.
Beili followed closely. Lingfeng and the ancient talisman master Mo Yuan looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and disappeared into the black fog one after another.
Thick darkness instantly swallowed them up, and biting cold came from all directions, like countless tiny ice needles piercing their skin.
The ears were filled with shrill screams like ghosts and wolves howling, which made people feel uneasy.
Xiao Bei held Bei Li's hand tightly. The coldness of his hand made his heart tighten. He circulated his spiritual power to pass the warmth to her.
When the black fog dissipated, they found themselves in a magnificent palace.
The huge dome is inlaid with countless sparkling gems, like stars in the night sky.
However, this gorgeous scene could not conceal the eerie atmosphere that permeated the palace.
There was a faint smell of decay in the air, and the scarlet carpet underfoot looked like dried blood.
Inside the palace, the passages crisscross like a huge maze.
Strange patterns were carved on the walls, and under the light of the gems, they seemed to come alive, twisting and wriggling.
Lingfeng took a tentative step forward, but found that the scene in front of him changed instantly. The originally straight passage turned into a thick wall.
"It's an illusion array!" said the ancient rune master Mo Yuan in a deep voice. A golden light condensed from his fingertips and he quickly drew a complex rune in the air.
The runes shimmered with golden light and slowly merged into the wall.
The wall twisted for a moment, then slowly disappeared, revealing the original passage.
However, with every step, the scenery in front of you changes, making it difficult to tell the direction.
Xiao Bei frowned. He felt a powerful force interfering with their perception, trying to trap them in this maze.
He tried to stay awake, but found that the scene in front of him became more and more blurred, and the sounds in his ears became louder and louder.
A feeling of unease spread, and a depressing atmosphere enveloped everyone.
Ling Feng swallowed, his voice trembling, "We...we seem to be lost."
Suddenly, Xiao Bei felt his hands were empty...
Beili's hand slipped from Xiaobei's.
"Xiao Bei!" A cry echoed in the empty hall, the ending tone trembling with a hint of fear.
Xiao Bei turned around suddenly, but saw only the empty scarlet carpet, and Bei Li's figure had disappeared.
"Beili!" Xiao Bei's voice sounded particularly weak in the magnificent hall, as if it was swallowed up by this endless maze.
His heart suddenly sank, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
He looked around and saw that the passages were crisscrossed and as dense as a spider web. Beili's figure had already been swallowed up by this strange illusion.
"Damn it!" Xiao Bei cursed softly, anxiety and anger intertwined, almost swallowing him up.
He clenched his fists, and veins popped out on the backs of his hands.
It was his responsibility to protect Beili, but now she was in danger and he was powerless to do anything. This feeling of powerlessness drove him almost crazy.
The air seemed to freeze, and the feeling was suffocating.
Ling Feng's face turned pale, and he subconsciously took a step back. "What...what should I do?"
The ancient talisman master Mo Yuan was surprisingly calm. He did not look for an exit as everyone expected, but sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, muttering to himself.
Golden light flashed at his fingertips, and complex runes appeared out of thin air, swimming in the air like fish, and finally merged into the walls of the palace.
"Senior Mo Yuan, what are you doing..." Ling Feng asked in confusion, with a hint of doubt in his voice.
Xiao Bei also stared at Mo Yuan closely, with doubts in his heart.
Mo Yuan ignored Ling Feng. The golden light on his body became brighter and brighter, as if it had merged with the entire palace.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes abruptly, with a gleam in his eyes, "I have established a connection with this maze, it... it is not a dead thing." Xiao Bei's heart moved, as if he had grasped a clue.
He looked at the ever-changing walls around him, and a bold idea gradually took shape in his mind.
He quickly walked to a wall that was about to change, stretched out his hand, and slowly touched it...
"Xiao Bei, be careful!" Ling Feng exclaimed.
The moment Xiao Bei's hand touched the wall, a strange energy surged into his body.
He closed his eyes, feeling the flow of energy, and pictures emerged in his mind, which were the structural drawings of the palace.
He suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of understanding in his eyes, "I know..."
The wall rippled like water, and Xiao Bei's figure disappeared into the depths of the maze.
Ling Feng and Mo Yuan followed closely behind, and the three of them shuttled through the unpredictable passage like fish.
At this moment, the originally illusory wall suddenly solidified and turned into a hideous gargoyle, which let out a deafening roar and attacked them with huge stone claws.
The stone claws were wrapped in strong winds, bringing a suffocating sense of oppression.
Xiao Bei dodged and swung the sword in his hand, and the sword light slashed towards the gargoyle like a silk thread.
There was a loud "clang" sound, sparks flew everywhere, but the gargoyle's stone claws were completely intact.
Lingfeng threw out a flying knife, which shot towards the gargoyle like a meteor, but was also bounced off by its hard stone skin.
Mo Yuan quickly drew runes, and golden light merged into the wall, trying to regain control of the illusion array.
The battle instantly became intense.
The gargoyle is extremely powerful, and every attack carries the power to destroy the world.
Xiao Bei and others were caught in a dilemma and faced danger all around.
While Xiao Bei was dodging the attacks, Bei Li's smiling face appeared in his mind, and that clear laughter seemed to be echoing in his ears.
His heart tightened, and he became even more determined to find Beili.
"Beili..." Xiao Bei whispered. Suddenly, a faint cry for help came into his ears.
He suddenly looked up and looked in the direction of the sound. In a corner not far away, he saw Beili trapped in a transparent energy shield, his eyes full of fear.
"Beili!" Xiao Bei was delighted and rushed over regardless of everything.
He swung his sword at the energy shield, but found that the energy shield was extremely tough and could not be broken at all.
He was extremely anxious, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
At this moment, Bei Li's voice came again, with a hint of trembling and expectation: "Xiao Bei, save me..."
Xiao Bei felt a pain in his heart. He turned around suddenly and looked at the gargoyle behind him. He took a deep breath and injected spiritual power into the sword, and the sword emitted a dazzling light.
"Break it!" Xiao Bei roared, slashing at the energy shield with his sword...
At the same time, Tianjizi carefully observed the movements of the gargoyle with a frown.
He found that although these gargoyles attacked fiercely, they seemed to lack flexibility and their attack methods were single.
A thought came to his mind, and a bold idea gradually took shape...
"Maybe..." Tianjizi muttered to himself, his eyes falling on the gargoyle's chest, where there seemed to be a piece of stone of a slightly lighter color.
"That's it!" Tianjizi was delighted and was about to remind Xiao Bei and the others, but suddenly saw Xiao Bei rushing towards Bei Li...
Xiao Bei slashed the energy shield with his sword, but it was like a drop in the ocean, without causing any ripples.
The energy shield was still intact, and Bei Li's terrified eyes pierced Xiao Bei's heart through the transparent barrier.
Just when he was almost in despair, Tianjizi suddenly shouted, "Attack their chests! That's their weak point!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Bei immediately understood what Tianjizi meant.
He stopped attacking the energy shield and turned to face the gargoyle, pointing the sword in his hand directly at the lighter-colored stone on the gargoyle's chest.
Lingfeng and Mo Yuan also understood what he meant and changed their targets of attack.
The long sword, carrying a sharp sword energy, pierced into the gargoyle's chest fiercely.
There was a crisp "crack" sound, and the gargoyle's movement suddenly stopped. Then it collapsed like a sand sculpture, turning into a pile of rubble scattered all over the ground.
"It really works!" Xiao Bei was delighted and his confidence increased.
He led Lingfeng and Mo Yuan, and defeated the gargoyles one by one like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
As the last gargoyle fell, the surrounding illusions disappeared.
The path of the maze becomes clear and visible, no longer an unpredictable passage.
Everyone finally saw the whole picture of the palace. A wide avenue led directly to the depths of the palace.
"Xiao Bei, you are so awesome!" Ling Feng shouted excitedly, his eyes full of admiration.
"Brother Xiao Bei, you saved us!" Mo Yuan also admired sincerely.
Xiao Bei looked at everyone's surprised expressions and felt filled with pride.
He walked to Beili, gently took her hand, and said softly: "It's okay, we are safe."
Bei Li held Xiao Bei's hand tightly, tears flashing in her eyes, and choked up, "Xiao Bei, thank you..."
Just when everyone thought they were about to find the core of the palace, a huge fire barrier appeared in front of them, and the blazing flames completely blocked the road ahead.
The scorching temperature hit me in the face, and the air was filled with the smell of burning.
Xiao Bei looked at the huge flame barrier with a determined look in his eyes. He clenched his fists and said, "It seems that the real test has just begun..."
