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

The cheers stopped abruptly, as if an invisible hand had strangled their throats.

Xiao Bei's gaze followed the direction where the mysterious elf disappeared, his brows furrowed, his eyes so deep that they seemed to swallow all the light.

The words "A greater crisis is coming" echoed in his mind like a thunderclap.

A chill ran up from the soles of his feet, and even though there was still a lot of noise around him, he felt a chill to the bone.

The air seemed to freeze, and the tense atmosphere was like an invisible net, enveloping everyone.

The joy just now was washed away, and was replaced by an inexplicable fear.

Lingfeng, Mo Yuan and Tianjizi walked up to Xiao Bei, their faces all with a solemn look and their eyes full of worry.

They knew that Xiao Bei was their backbone and his decision would affect everyone's fate.

"Xiao Bei, what should we do next?" Ling Feng's voice was low and hoarse, breaking the suffocating silence.

Xiao Bei took a deep breath, his eyes firm: "We must set off immediately to explore the source of this so-called 'greater crisis'." He understood that only by nipping the crisis in the bud could he protect the immortals and everything he cherished.

However, as soon as Xiao Bei finished speaking, there was a commotion around him.

The immortal people gathered around, their faces filled with fear and anxiety.

"My Lord Xiao Bei, please stay and protect us! We have just experienced a great battle and are no longer able to withstand any more blows!" An old man knelt tremblingly in front of Xiao Bei, tears streaming down his face.

"Yes, Immortal Xiao Bei, you are our hero, only you can protect us!"

More and more people knelt down, and their cries of pleas surged towards Xiao Bei like a tide, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

The desire to explore the crisis and the people's expectations formed a huge conflict, tearing Xiao Bei's heart apart.

Xiao Bei looked at the expectant faces in front of him, feeling mixed emotions.

He clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his flesh, but he didn't feel any pain.

"I……"

At this moment, a blood-red light suddenly appeared in the distant sky, dyeing the entire earth scarlet.

The scarlet light spread rapidly like a giant claw tearing through the night sky, bringing with it a heart-pounding sense of oppression.

Fear exploded among the crowd, and screams and cries mixed together in chaos.

Xiao Bei raised his head suddenly, the blood-red light reflected on his face, making him look even paler, and there was an unresolvable worry between his brows.

He felt a powerful evil force approaching, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, as if foreshadowing the coming of a catastrophe.

"Xiao Bei, go quickly! Leave this to me!" Bei Li's voice was crisp and firm, like a reassurance pill, instantly calming Xiao Bei's inner anxiety.

He turned to look at Beili, only to see that her eyes were bright and her expression was resolute, without a trace of fear.

The warm light emanating from Beili formed a sharp contrast with the blood-red light in the sky, like a bright lamp in the darkness, illuminating the direction for Xiao Bei to move forward.

Bei Lihui held Xiao Bei's hand, feeling the warmth of his palm, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"I'll wait for you." She knew that Xiao Bei was shouldering the heavy responsibility of protecting the immortal clan. She would be here to guard their home and wait for his triumphant return.

Xiao Bei looked at Bei Li deeply, then turned and walked towards Mo Yuan, Ling Feng and Tianjizi.

The three of them were already prepared, and their faces showed the determination to die.

Xiao Bei's eyes swept over the three people and he said in a deep voice, "Let's go!" After that, he took off into the air, turned into a golden light, and flew towards the direction where the blood-red light appeared.

Mo Yuan, Ling Feng and Tian Jizi followed closely behind. Four rays of light streaked across the sky and disappeared into the night.

Beili looked in the direction they left, with a determined light in his eyes.

She took a deep breath, turned around, faced the frightened people, and shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid! We will protect you!" Her voice was clear and powerful, with a convincing power that calmed the restless hearts of the people.

At this moment, the earth suddenly shook violently, and deep cracks appeared on the ground. A cold and gloomy aura surged out from deep underground...

Beili's expression suddenly changed, "Not good!"

The scarlet light dyed the earth into a bloody purgatory. Xiao Bei and others galloped on their swords, the wind whistling in their ears, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which was nauseating.

The closer they got to the center of the light, the stronger the heart-pounding feeling of oppression became, as if an invisible giant hand was strangling their throats, making breathing difficult.

Suddenly, several dark shadows flashed in the darkness ahead, so fast that they were almost impossible to capture with the naked eye.

"Be careful!" Xiao Bei shouted softly, and a golden light flashed in his hand, and a long sword suddenly appeared in his hand.

Almost at the same time, several dark shadows pounced towards them like ghosts, with sharp hissing sounds.

These shadow creatures are shaped like giant bats, their bodies as black as ink, except for their eyes which flash with a faint green light, which is creepy.

Their claws were as sharp as knives, cutting through the air with a piercing whistling sound and carrying a chilling breath of death.

Xiao Bei and others quickly dispersed to avoid the attack.

Lingfeng threw a flying knife, which shot towards the shadow creatures like a meteor, but they easily dodged it.

"These guys are too fast!" Lingfeng gritted his teeth, cold sweat oozing from his forehead.

Mo Yuan quickly drew a rune, which emitted a dazzling light and formed a barrier, blocking the attacks of several shadow creatures.

However, the number of shadow creatures increased, surging like a tide, and the barrier began to tremble violently, and was about to break.

A shadow creature bypassed the barrier and pounced towards Mo Yuan.

At the critical moment, Xiao Bei's figure flashed and stood in front of Mo Yuan.

The shadow creature's sharp claws grabbed Xiao Bei's shoulders fiercely, tearing his clothes and causing blood to gush out instantly.

"Xiao Bei!" Mo Yuan exclaimed,

Xiao Bei groaned, endured the severe pain, and swung his sword to force the shadow creature back.

"I'm fine!" He gritted his teeth, his eyes firm.

The attacks of the shadow creatures became more and more fierce, and Xiao Bei and others gradually felt powerless.

The surrounding trees were twisted and deformed by the power of the shadow creatures, making teeth-grinding cracking sounds.

The air was filled with the smell of decay, as if you were in an ancient tomb, eerie and terrifying.

"We can't go on like this!" Tianjizi's face was solemn. "We must find a way to break out!" At this moment, Xiao Bei noticed that when the moonlight shone through the clouds, the shadow creatures' movements seemed to become slower...

"Light..." Xiao Bei muttered to himself,

A gleam of light flashed in Xiao Bei's eyes, and he suddenly understood!

"They're afraid of light!" he shouted. "Use your magic to create a bright light!"

Mo Yuan and Tianjizi immediately understood what he meant. They formed seals at the same time and muttered something.

The runes in Mo Yuan's hands spun rapidly, transforming into dazzling white lights that shot towards the shadow creatures like sharp swords.

Tianjizi took out a bronze mirror, which reflected the moonlight, magnifying the originally faint light several times and illuminating the surrounding darkness.

Under the strong light, the shadow creatures let out bursts of shrill screams, and black smoke began to emerge from their bodies, as if they were burned by flames.

They flapped their wings frantically, trying to escape from this bright place, but found themselves surrounded.

Seeing this, Lingfeng seized the opportunity and the flying knife in his hand turned into silver light and shot accurately at the vital points of the shadow creature.

One by one, the shadow creatures fell with wails, turning into black mist and dissipating into the air.

Xiao Bei was not idle either. The long sword in his hand shone with golden light, and the sword energy was rampant, killing the approaching shadow creatures one by one.

His movements were smooth and flowing, like a god of war. In the interweaving of light and shadow, he appeared particularly majestic and domineering.

As the last shadow creature dissipated, the surrounding darkness gradually faded away, revealing its original appearance.

The smell of blood in the air gradually dissipated, replaced by a fresh scent of earth.

"Xiao Bei, you're so smart!" Ling Feng patted Xiao Bei's shoulder excitedly, his eyes full of admiration. "If you hadn't discovered that they were afraid of light, we would have been in danger today!"

Mo Yuan and Tianjizi also nodded, expressing their admiration for Xiao Bei's wisdom.

The surviving immortals around also looked at him with admiration.

Xiao Bei smiled slightly and did not take credit for himself.

He understood that victory in this battle was the result of everyone's joint efforts.

"Let's go and keep moving forward." He said in a deep voice, looking forward with a firm gaze.

Following the direction from which the shadow creatures came, Xiao Bei and others continued to move forward.

They passed through a dense forest, climbed over a towering mountain, and finally came to a deep canyon.

There was a chilly atmosphere in the canyon, as if even the sunlight couldn't penetrate.

At the end of the canyon stands an ancient relic, shrouded in a thick darkness, making it impossible to see its true appearance.

"Here..." Xiao Bei looked at the ruins before him. He felt that a powerful force was hidden within, waiting for their arrival...

"Be careful." Mo Yuan whispered, with a hint of solemnity in his tone.
