I am destroying the protagonist in the fantasy world!

Before Grandma Ji finished her words, a suffocating pressure descended like a mountain. Lei Yi's face suddenly changed. Without time to think, he suddenly pushed Dongfang Liuli away and said hurriedly, "Let's go! It's dangerous here!"

Dongfang Liuli was pushed and staggered a few steps. Before she could stand firm, she saw Lei Yi's figure rushing towards the depths of the valley.

"Lei Yi! What are you going to do?!" Dongfang Liuli exclaimed and wanted to chase after him, but was blocked by the powerful pressure and could not move forward.

"Liuli, help me protect the law!" Lei Yi's voice came from afar, with a bit of determination and madness.

Dongfang Liuli's heart sank. She understood what Lei Yi was going to do. Deep in this valley, there must be a huge danger hidden. Lei Yi was seriously injured at this moment. If he still tried to force his way through, he would undoubtedly be courting death!

But she knew Lei Yi. Once he made up his mind, he wouldn't change it easily. He was using his own life to fight for a glimmer of hope for them!

Dongfang Liuli took a deep breath, suppressed the worry and fear in her heart, looked at Lei Yi's figure with a firm gaze, and the spiritual power in her hands surged, ready to face anything.

Lei Yi had reached the deepest part of the valley, and the suffocating pressure had reached its peak, threatening to crush him. Yet, he didn't flinch. Instead, he faced the pressure, sitting cross-legged, forming hand seals and muttering something.

As he moved, the surrounding spiritual energy began to fluctuate violently, and streams of pure spiritual energy rushed into his body frantically, impacting his meridians as if to tear him apart.

Lei Yi groaned, a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, but he seemed to feel no pain. He still gritted his teeth and persisted, guiding the violent spiritual energy to attack the barrier that had imprisoned him for many years.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, a blinding light erupted from Lei Yi's body, enveloping him completely. Dongfang Liuli could only vaguely see that within that light, Lei Yi's figure seemed to be undergoing some strange transformation...

As time passed, Lei Yi's aura grew stronger, but at the same time, the pressure he exuded grew increasingly terrifying, as if something terrifying was about to burst forth from the earth...

Dongfang Liuli clenched the sword in his hand, staring intently at the ball of light, and whispered softly: "Lei Yi, you must hold on..."

Amidst the light, Lei Yi's figure gradually faded, replaced by a massive golden cocoon. Lightning flickered across its surface, and within it, Lei Yi's painful struggle could be vaguely seen. The suffocating pressure came from this cocoon. It seemed to sense a threat and frantically attacked the cocoon, attempting to prevent Lei Yi's breakthrough.

Each impact shook the valley, forcing Dongfang Liuli to erect a spiritual barrier to block the scattered energy. Even so, her blood surged, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

"Damn it! What the hell is this thing!" Dongfang Liuli cursed inwardly. The strength of this force was beyond her comprehension. She could even sense that some terrifying being seemed to be lurking in the valley, staring at them with eager eyes.

"Lei Yi, you must hold on!" Dongfang Liuli's beautiful eyes were full of worry, but she couldn't help, so she could only grit her teeth and hold on to buy time for him.

Lei Yi, trapped within the light cocoon, was experiencing unimaginable pain. Raging spiritual energy raged through his body, assaulting his meridians, each impact like a knife cutting. Even more terrifying, the terrifying pressure seeped into the light cocoon, constantly attacking his consciousness, attempting to drag him into an endless abyss.

"Ah!" Lei Yi couldn't help but let out a painful roar, but he didn't give up. Instead, he practiced his skills even more frantically, guiding the spiritual energy to impact the invisible barrier.

After repeated attacks and repeated failures, Lei Yi's body has reached its limit and his consciousness has begun to blur. But there is always a belief in his heart that supports him: he cannot fall down, he still has a lot to do, and the people he wants to protect are still waiting for him!

Just when Lei Yi was about to give up, something strange happened!

The dangerous forces around them seemed to sense something, and their attacks became even more fierce. The light cocoon trembled violently, as if it would shatter at any moment. Dongfang Liuli, seeing this, rushed forward recklessly, swinging his sword at the force, trying to buy a glimmer of hope for Lei Yi's life.

"You don't know your own limitations!" A deafening roar came from the depths of the valley.

Dongfang Liuli only felt an overwhelming force coming at her, and she flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, falling heavily to the ground, blood spurting out of her mouth.

"Lei...Yi..." Dongfang Liuli struggled to stand up, but the scene in front of her eyes became darker and darker, and she eventually lost consciousness.

……

"Foolish ants, how dare you lay your hands on my things!" A deafening roar echoed through the valley, but it couldn't awaken the unconscious Dongfang Liuli. The golden cocoon of light was shaky, like a lone lamp in a gust of wind, ready to go out at any moment.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Inside the light cocoon, the once violent and raging spiritual energy suddenly became docile, as if finding an outlet, and madly poured into Lei Yi's body. At the same time, an ancient and mysterious power emerged from the depths of the valley, transforming into a series of profound runes and merging into the light cocoon.

"This is..." While unconscious, Lei Yi vaguely sensed this power, carrying a primordial aura, ancient and powerful, yet warm and comforting, like a mother's embrace. His injuries healed at a visible rate, and his previously depleted spiritual energy rapidly replenished, even becoming more refined than before.

The golden cocoon bathed in this mysterious power, its radiance growing ever brighter, illuminating the entire valley. The initially violent pressure seemed to sense the terrifying power, its attack gradually easing, and finally dissipating completely into nothingness.

Deep in the valley, the voice rang out again, its tone filled with disbelief and fear: "This is impossible! How could this power... appear here!?"

However, before it could figure out what was happening, the golden cocoon suddenly shone brightly, and a terrifying aura rose into the sky, piercing the clouds!

At the same time, Lei Yi slowly opened his eyes, their gleaming light radiating. The pain he'd felt before had vanished, replaced by an unparalleled sense of power. He could clearly feel his strength increasing at an incredible rate. Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core... each bottleneck in his realm was easily broken through as if it were made of paper!

"This... this is..." Lei Yi's heart was filled with shock. He didn't know what had happened, but he understood that he had obtained a great opportunity!

The golden cocoon of light gradually dissipated, revealing Lei Yi. Though his clothes were tattered, his fierce aura couldn't be concealed, like a sword unsheathed, its edge exposed. He looked down at his hands, feeling the power surging within him, a confident smile playing on his lips.

"I, Lei Yi, am back!"

Dongfang Liuli slowly awoke, her eyes met with a blinding golden light. When the light faded, she could clearly see the scene before her: Lei Yi stood there unharmed, his spiritual energy surging around him, like a god.

"Lei Yi, are you... okay?" Dongfang Liuli's voice trembled with disbelief. She had witnessed Lei Yi being severely injured with her own eyes and had thought...

Lei Yi turned to look at Dongfang Liuli, a warm smile on his lips: "I'm fine, Liuli, I made you worry."

Dongfang Liuli then noticed that Lei Yi's eyes had changed. He was no longer cynical as before, but full of confidence and determination, as if he had been reborn.

"You...your cultivation..." Dongfang Liuli sensed the unfathomable aura from Lei Yi and was so surprised that she couldn't speak.

Lei Yi clenched his fists, feeling the surging power within him, his heart filled with joy and gratitude. He knew that all of this was a gift from that mysterious power, and that this power seemed to have some strange connection with him.

"It's a long story," Lei Yi lowered his voice, "I seem to have received some kind of inheritance, and my strength has improved by leaps and bounds."

Dongfang Liuli looked at Lei Yi with satisfaction, her eyes filled with joy. She knew that Lei Yi had always longed for great power, and now he had finally got what he wanted.

However, after a brief moment of joy, Lei Yi's expression turned serious again. He still clearly remembered that he was carrying a blood feud, and Master Murong's conspiracy had not yet been revealed. He could not stay here for long.

"Liuli, we must leave here as soon as possible." Lei Yi looked at Dongfang Liuli, a look of determination flashing in his eyes, "I must get to the bottom of what happened to Master Murong!"

Dongfang Liuli nodded in understanding. She knew that there was always a fire burning in Lei Yi's heart, a determination to never give up until he achieved his goal.

"Let's leave here first." Dongfang Liuli helped the weak Lei Yi up, and the two walked out of the valley together.

"Young Master Lei, please stay!" An old voice suddenly echoed in the valley, with unquestionable majesty.

Lei Yi and Dongfang Liuli stopped and turned to look in the direction of the sound...
