Chapter 787: Lost in the Trap: Xiao Bei Finds a Way

Xiao Bei and Xiao Ling stepped into the trap maze.

There are gravels under your feet, so you need to be careful with every step.

The air in the cave was heavy and damp, with a faint smell of decay that was nauseating.

Above, stalactites hung upside down like sharp swords, casting strange shadows in the dim light.

Every time Xiao Bei took a step, he would test it with the tip of his sword and only dared to take a step after confirming that it was safe.

Xiao Ling followed closely behind him, her big eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly, afraid of missing any sign of danger.

In the silent cave, only their light breathing and footsteps echoed, adding to the tense atmosphere.

Suddenly, a fragrant breeze blew over, accompanied by silver bell-like laughter.

An enchanting figure appeared in front of them, it was the Phantom Demon.

She was dressed in light gauze, revealing her curves, with a pair of charming eyes and a graceful look.

"Dear guests, are you lost?" The voice of Huan Yao was as gentle as the spring breeze, but with a hint of imperceptible temptation.

Xiao Bei's eyes fixed and he immediately held his breath. He knew that this was the enchantment technique of the phantom demon.

Xiao Ling also sensed the danger. She subconsciously hid behind Xiao Bei and held tightly onto the corner of his clothes.

Seeing that Xiao Bei was unmoved, the phantom demon used his charm technique even harder.

Her voice became sweeter, like a whisper between lovers, and her figure became more elusive, like a dream bubble, making it difficult to grasp.

Xiao Bei felt dizzy and the world in front of him began to become blurry.

The figure of the phantom demon kept changing in his eyes, sometimes turning into Bei Li, whom he had been thinking about, sometimes turning into the mother in his childhood memory, and sometimes turning into the master he admired...

His will began to waver, and a strong desire surged in his heart. He wanted to be closer to the phantom demon, wanted to embrace her, wanted to merge with her...

"Brother Xiao Bei..." A gentle voice sounded in his ears, like Bei Li's call.

Xiao Bei suddenly woke up. He clenched his teeth and used all his strength to resist the charm of the phantom demon.

Cold sweat slid down his forehead, his body trembled slightly, and he was struggling inside.

At this moment, he felt a strange movement behind him...

Xiao Ling's scream broke the silence of the cave.

Xiao Bei turned around suddenly and saw that Xiao Ling's ankle was entangled by a vine. The vine was covered with barbs that penetrated deeply into her flesh.

The bright red blood flowed down the vines and dripped onto the stone ground, making a "tick, tick" sound, like the timer of the god of death.

Xiao Ling's face was full of pain. She struggled to break free from the vines, but she got deeper and deeper into them.

"Xiao Ling!" Xiao Bei's heart suddenly tightened. He didn't care about his own danger and immediately rushed towards Xiao Ling.

"Want to save her? You have to get past me first!" Huan Yao smiled and stood in front of Xiao Bei. Her figure was as erratic as a ghost, making it difficult to grasp.

Xiao Bei's eyes were red and rage was burning in his heart.

He gripped the sword tightly, and the sword vibrated hummingly, as if responding to his anger.

He took a deep breath, put all distracting thoughts behind him, and only focused on the monster in front of him that was preventing him from saving people.

"Get out of here!" Xiao Bei roared angrily, and swung the long sword in his hand suddenly. A sharp sword energy cut through the air and went straight towards the phantom monster.

Wherever the sword energy passed, the air made a sharp whistling sound, like the roar of a wild beast.

The stalactites in the cave broke one after another, rubble flew everywhere, and dust flew everywhere.

The smile on Huan Yao's face froze instantly.

She waved her sleeves hastily, trying to block Xiao Bei's attack.

However, Xiao Bei's sword energy was as powerful as a bamboo that broke through her defense in an instant and hit her chest hard.

"Ah!" The phantom demon let out a shrill scream, and her body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily on the stone ground.

She clutched her chest, curled up in pain, her face full of disbelief.

Blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, staining her clothes red.

Xiao Bei ignored the miserable condition of Huan Yao. He rushed straight to Xiao Ling and swung his sword to cut off the vines wrapped around her ankles.

"Brother Xiao Bei..." Xiao Ling called out weakly. Her face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat the size of beans were sliding down her forehead.

Xiao Bei carefully held Xiao Ling in his arms.

"Don't be afraid, I'll take you out." Xiao Bei's voice was low and firm, as unshakable as a rock.

He held Xiao Ling in his arms, slowly stood up, and glanced around with cold eyes.

"The game has just begun..." A cold voice echoed in the cave.

The phantom demon's silhouette twisted in the dust, and its resentful voice echoed in the cave, "Want to leave? Not that easy!" On the stone wall, the originally still runes suddenly lit up, and the dark green light spread like a poisonous snake, and the ground began to tremble.

Sharp stone spikes sprang out from the ground and attacked Xiao Bei and Xiao Ling like a trap.

Xiao Bei held Xiao Ling in his arms and dodged nimbly.

His eyes were sharp, catching the trajectory of the trap.

The stone thorns scraped against the corners of his clothes, leaving several long and thin cuts. He could feel the cold aura attached to the stone thorns, which was creepy.

At the top of the cave, stalactites began to fall, making a deafening roar, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of lime.

Xiao Bei held Xiao Ling in his arms, dodging left and right amidst the intensive attacks, like a small boat in the raging waves.

"Xiao Ling, don't be afraid." Xiao Bei's voice was particularly clear in the noisy environment. He looked down at Xiao Ling in his arms, his eyes gentle and firm.

Xiao Ling's face was pale, but she held Xiao Bei's clothes tightly. There was no fear in her eyes, only full of trust.

"I believe in Brother Xiao Bei." Her voice was weak but extremely firm.

The corners of Xiao Bei's mouth rose slightly, revealing a relieved smile.

He felt Xiaoling's trust, which made him more determined to protect her.

While dodging the attacks of the trap, he carefully observed the surrounding environment, trying to find the key to breaking the trap.

The traps are changing faster and more complex.

The stone spikes on the ground undulated like waves, the stalactites on the cave ceiling fell like raindrops, and the surrounding stone walls began to move, enclosing them in an increasingly smaller space.

The air became thinner and thinner, making people feel suffocated.

Xiao Bei's breathing began to become rapid and his physical strength was rapidly consumed.

Suddenly, he noticed that the frequency of the runes flashing on the stone wall seemed to have a certain pattern.

He narrowed his eyes, carefully observing the flashing of the runes, and gradually an idea came to his mind.

"Xiao Ling, hold on to me." Xiao Bei's voice was filled with excitement.

Xiao Ling hugged Xiao Bei tightly, buried her head in his chest, and felt the warmth and strength coming from him.

Xiao Bei took a deep breath, holding Xiao Ling in his arms, and rushed in one direction...

"Do you think you can escape like this?" The voice of the phantom demon sounded again, full of ridicule.

Xiao Bei ignored the provocation of the phantom demon. His eyes were fixed on the front, and a confident smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"I said, the game has just begun..." Xiao Bei held Xiao Ling and shuttled quickly through the maze.

He observed the pattern in which the runes flashed and discovered that they were actually pointing a way to survival.

Every movement he made was perfectly synchronized with the flashing of the runes, as if he was dancing a dance of death.

Stone spikes brushed past him and stalactites nearly fell, but none of them could hurt him at all.

He is like a prophet who can predict the future and can navigate the dangerous maze with ease.

As the last rune went out, the surrounding traps suddenly stopped working.

The stone spikes on the ground slowly retracted, the stalactites on the top of the cave stopped falling, and the surrounding stone walls returned to calm.

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

"Brother Xiao Bei, you are so awesome!" Xiao Ling poked her head out from Xiao Bei's arms and cheered.

Her little face turned red with excitement and her eyes sparkled with admiration.

Xiao Bei gently put Xiao Ling down with a faint smile on his face.

"I said, the game has just begun."

Huan Yao slumped on the ground. She could never have imagined that Xiao Bei could break the trap she had carefully set so easily.

She struggled to stand up, but found that she had no strength left.

Xiao Bei walked up to Huan Yao and looked down at her. "You lose."

She, the phantom demon, knew that she had been completely defeated by Xiao Bei.

Suddenly, Xiao Bei and Xiao Ling felt a powerful energy fluctuation at the same time.

They followed the energy fluctuations and found a shining portal at the end of the maze.

"That's... the portal to the fairyland!" Xiao Ling exclaimed.

Xiao Bei's eyes also flashed with excitement. He finally found the way home.

However, just as they were about to walk towards the portal, they discovered that the portal was surrounded by powerful restrictions.

The restriction emitted heart-pounding energy fluctuations, like an insurmountable barrier, isolating them from the fairyland.

"It seems that our journey is not over yet..." Xiao Bei muttered to himself, staring intently at the restrictions around the portal, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

He stretched out his hand and gripped the sword tightly. A powerful aura emanated from him, as if he wanted to completely destroy the restriction in front of him.

Xiao Ling stood beside Xiao Bei, holding his hand tightly.

"Brother Xiao Bei..."
