Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation: My system is amazing
Chapter 807: Undercurrent Breaks the Situation: Xiao Bei's Strategy
The solemn atmosphere in the Immortal Palace had not yet completely dissipated, but Xiao Bei had already started to investigate the mastermind behind the scenes like an arrow shot from a bow.
He knew very well that the enemy's tricks were not limited to this. The conspiracy hidden in the dark was like a dormant poisonous snake that could reveal its fangs at any time.
Fairy Qingyi came hurriedly, her brows furrowed, holding a fragment of an old map in her hand.
"Xiao Bei, I have consulted the ancient books of the fairy world, and this may be related to the mastermind behind this incident." Fairy Qingyi's voice was a little anxious as she handed the map to Xiao Bei.
On the map, there is a circled area located on the edge of the fairyland, marked as "Netherworld Valley".
It is shrouded in fog all year round and few people set foot there.
Xiao Bei took the map and ran his fingertips across the rough paper, but his brows became even more furrowed.
This clue was too direct, as if it was deliberately placed in front of him to lure him there.
He raised his eyes, a gleam in his eyes, and looked at Fairy Qingyi. His low voice was filled with a hint of doubt, "Fairy Qingyi, do you think there is nothing strange about this?"
Fairy Qingyi was startled for a moment, then nodded in understanding, "I also think something is fishy, but this is the only clue we have right now. Xiao Bei, be careful."
Xiao Bei did not respond immediately. He looked around and analyzed the situation quickly in his mind.
If the enemy's target is oneself, then this "Netherworld Valley" is likely to be a trap.
But he had to go because it was his only chance to find out who was behind this.
He turned to look at Bei Li, who was gazing at him with her clear eyes, as if to say, "No matter where you go, I will be with you." Xiao Bei felt warm in his heart and held Bei Li's hand tightly. "Let's go and see what secrets are hidden in this Nether Valley."
The group set out on the road to the Nether Valley.
The surrounding scenery gradually became desolate and the air began to become gloomy and cold.
As they moved forward cautiously, a faint groan reached their ears.
Xiao Bei stopped immediately and looked around sharply.
In the bushes not far away, I saw a ragged immortal curled up in pain. His body was covered in blood and his breath was weak.
"Save...save me..." the immortal said intermittently, his voice filled with a strong sense of weakness.
Bei Li's heart softened immediately. She pulled Xiao Bei's sleeve and said worriedly, "Xiao Bei, he seems to be seriously injured. Let's save him."
A trace of pity welled up in Xiao Bei's heart.
But years of combat experience have taught him that the more critical the moment, the more vigilant he must be.
He looked at the immortal struggling for help, his heart sank, and the vague sense of familiarity that person exuded made his nerves tense.
His hand tightly grasped the sword at his waist,
"This person's injuries are strange. We can't approach him rashly." Xiao Bei said, staring at the "injured" immortal with a hawk-like gaze, with a subtle warning in his tone.
The "immortal"'s body trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end no sound came out.
He raised his head, revealing a weather-beaten face with a complex expression in his eyes. Finally, he suddenly raised his head, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth...
The smile on the "immortal's" lips had not yet fully unfolded when his figure suddenly rose up like a ghost. With a flash of cold light in his hand, a poisoned dagger pierced Xiao Bei's chest!
Everything happened too fast. Although Xiao Bei was prepared, he was still caught off guard by the sudden attack.
The dagger cut through his clothes, leaving a trail of blood.
At the critical moment, Bei Li flew in front of Xiao Bei and the dagger pierced deeply into her shoulder.
"Beili!" Xiao Bei's eyes were bloodshot and his roar echoed through the valley.
He felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, as if he had fallen into an ice cave that had existed for thousands of years.
Beili's body was soft in his arms, and the warm blood dyed his clothes red. The touch burned his skin and even more so his heart.
"Xiao Bei... I'm fine..." Bei Li's weak voice trembled, and a forced smile appeared on his pale face, but it was uglier than crying.
Xiao Bei hugged Bei Li tightly, stroking her blood-stained cheek with trembling fingers, his heart aching.
He had never hated his hesitation so much. If he had taken action earlier, Beili would not have been injured.
"Damn it!" Xiao Bei gritted his teeth, his eyes were red, and a violent force gushed out of his body.
He gently placed Beili on the ground and slowly stood up. Immortal energy surged around him, like an angry god of war.
Seeing that his attack was successful, the Shadow Demon showed a ferocious smile on his face, "Xiao Bei, your death has come!" He flashed and attacked Xiao Bei again.
However, Xiao Bei at this moment was no longer the slightly hesitant guardian of the fairyland.
The anger and self-blame in his heart turned into endless power, and the magic sword in his hand emitted a dazzling light, like a flash of lightning, cutting through the dark valley.
"Ah!" The Shadow Demon let out a scream. His body was hit by Xiao Bei's sword energy and flew backwards like a kite with a broken string. He fell heavily to the ground, blood spurting out of his mouth.
Xiao Bei walked towards the Shadow Demon step by step, and every step seemed to be stepping on the Shadow Demon's heart.
He looked down at the miserable shadow demon.
"You...you actually..." The Shadow Demon looked at Xiao Bei in horror. He had never thought that Xiao Bei actually possessed such powerful strength.
Xiao Bei didn't say anything. He slowly raised the magic sword in his hand, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at the shadow demon's throat.
"No..." The Shadow Demon was terrified and wanted to struggle, but found that he could not move.
At this moment, a cold voice came from the depths of the valley: "Xiao Bei, do you think you can win like this?"
The shadow demon let out a shrill scream, the valley trembled, and countless cracks appeared on the ground, from which countless hideous dark creatures emerged.
They looked like wolves, but had bat-like wings. They exuded a disgusting stench, and their scarlet eyes stared at Xiao Bei, making creepy growls.
These dark creatures surged towards Xiao Bei like a tide, their sharp teeth and claws tearing through the air, making a shrill whistling sound.
Xiao Bei brandished the magic sword, and the sword light flashed like a silk thread, chopping the approaching dark creature into pieces.
However, these creatures seemed endless, rushing towards him one after another, and Xiao Bei gradually felt overwhelmed.
Beili endured the severe pain in her shoulder, sat cross-legged, muttered something, and formed seals with her hands. A soft white light enveloped her and Xiao Bei.
The white light formed a barrier, keeping the dark creatures out.
Xiao Bei felt the power of Bei Li's immortality, and his heart warmed. He turned around and saw a determined look on Bei Li's pale face.
"Beili..." Xiao Bei's voice was a little choked. He had never felt Beili's love so deep and so firm as he did now.
Beili smiled slightly and responded to Xiao Bei's love with her eyes.
In this darkness full of dangers, their affectionate gazes into each other's eyes seemed like the most beautiful picture in the world. Even the hideous dark creatures around them could not break this moment of warmth.
However, this warmth is just the calm before the storm.
There were more and more dark creatures, and cracks began to appear in the protective barrier. Beili's face became paler and paler, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
At this moment, Fairy Qingyi suddenly shouted: "Xiao Bei, look at their eyes!"
Fairy Qingyi's voice echoed in the valley, like a heavy hammer, waking Xiao Bei's thoughts.
He quickly came to his senses, his eyes as sharp as torches, staring intently into the eyes of those dark creatures.
Sure enough, there was a strange fluctuation in those scarlet eyes, as if they were the source of some evil power.
"Xiao Bei, there are fluctuations of demonic energy in the eyes of these dark creatures. As long as we destroy their eyes, we can weaken their power!" There was a hint of urgency in Fairy Qingyi's voice, but her tone was still calm.
Xiao Bei's mind was shaken, he gripped the magic sword tightly, the magic energy surged like a strong wind, and a blazing light appeared at the tip of the sword.
He swung his sword in the air, and the sword energy was like a dragon, instantly piercing through the eyes of a dark creature.
The creature let out a shrill scream, and its body instantly turned to ashes and was blown away by the wind.
Seeing this scene, the other dark creatures suddenly became panicked. Xiao Bei seized the opportunity and used his sword skills like flowing water. He pierced the eyes of the dark creatures one by one with one sword.
Every time the sword was swung, a dark creature fell miserably and turned into nothingness.
"Xiao Bei, hurry! Now is the time!" Bei Li's voice was a little weak, but still full of determination.
The immortal power in her hands gathered and formed arrows of light, shooting towards the eyes of those dark creatures.
The light arrow and Xiao Bei's sword energy complemented each other, like two swords combined, killing all the dark creatures.
Seeing this, Shadow Demon's face changed drastically. He tried desperately to escape, but how could Xiao Bei let him go.
Xiao Bei's figure appeared in front of the Shadow Demon like a ghost, and the immortal sword pierced the Shadow Demon's chest with the force of thunder.
A trace of despair flashed in the Shadow Demon's eyes, but he still roared unwillingly: "Xiao Bei, you don't know what you are doing!"
"I only know that you must pay the price!" Xiao Bei's voice was like a cold wind. The immortal sword in his hand shook and directly pierced through the Shadow Demon's heart.
The Shadow Demon's body twitched violently, and a gurgling sound came from his throat. Finally, he turned into a cloud of black smoke and disappeared into the air.
As the shadow demon dissipated, the dark creatures around it collapsed like puppets out of control and eventually turned into nothingness.
The cold atmosphere in the valley gradually dissipated, replaced by tranquility.
Xiao Bei felt that the immortal power in Beili's body was gradually recovering, and the worries in his heart gradually subsided.
However, at this moment, Xiao Bei found a dark scroll in the wreckage left by the Shadow Demon. There were ancient runes on the scroll, emitting a faint light.
He unfolded the scroll, and the contents pointed to a place he had never heard of - Xuanfeng Valley.
"Is this the real clue to the mastermind behind this?" Xiao Bei whispered to himself with a firm gaze.
He put the scroll away and turned to look at Beili, his eyes full of determination, "Beili, let's go to Xuanfeng Valley and find out what's going on!"
Beili nodded, his eyes also full of determination.
The two smiled at each other, as if no difficulties could stop them from moving forward.
However, they didn't know that behind this clue, there was an ancient secret of the fairy world, and the owner of Xuanfeng Valley, Emperor Xuanfeng, acted surprisingly innocent...
