Transmigrating to become Hua Qiangu

Hua Qiangu and her companions resolutely walked along the gloomy path of Youming Valley, the surrounding darkness growing stronger as if it would devour them.

Tang Bao held Hua Qiangu's hand tightly, her eyes filled with a hint of nervousness: "Mother, this place is making my skin crawl, but we'll definitely make it!"

Ni Mantian brandished her sword, trying to dispel the oppressive atmosphere: "What are you afraid of? With so many of us here, any demons and monsters will have to retreat!"

Sha Qianmo warily surveyed his surroundings, muttering, "This Youming Valley is eerily quiet. Everyone, stay alert."

Suddenly, a misty fog shimmering with an eerie light appeared ahead, and the group stopped in their tracks.

Shuofeng frowned and said, "This fog doesn't look simple. Could there be some kind of trap?"

Qingyu stepped forward and observed carefully: "I feel that this mist is like an ancient restriction. Forcing our way in may trigger danger."

After pondering for a moment, Dongfang Yuqing said, "Perhaps we can try to look around for clues that could help us solve this problem."

So the group dispersed and searched the area around the mist. A moment later, You Ruo called out, "Everyone come quick! There are some strange runes here!"

The crowd gathered around and saw some faintly glowing runes carved on the ground, their shapes peculiar and seemingly containing some kind of mysterious power.

Bai Zihua squatted down and carefully studied the runes: "I have never seen these runes before. They seem to be an ancient script that has been lost for a long time."

Hua Qiangu asked curiously, "Master, how can we break it?"

The patriarch then approached and said, "I have studied some ancient writing systems in the modern world. Let me take a look." After careful examination, the patriarch slowly said, "These runes seem to be hinting that we need to find a specific spiritual object to break the spell of this mist. The clue to the spiritual object lies on the three-headed demon snake in this Netherworld Valley."

"A three-headed serpent? That sounds really powerful!" Tang Bao couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Sha Qianmo laughed loudly: "Haha, even the most powerful demonic snake has to bow down obediently when it encounters us!"

The group continued deeper into the Netherworld Valley, searching for traces of the three-headed serpent. Along the way, they encountered various bizarre creature attacks, but they overcame them all through their individual strength and teamwork.

Finally, beside a damp swamp, they discovered the lair of the three-headed serpent. The massive bodies of the three serpents were coiled together, their three heads held high, their tongues flicking out and hissing, their eyes revealing ferocity and vigilance.

"I've finally found you, Three-Headed Serpent!" Hua Qiangu exclaimed.

One of the three-headed serpents spoke in a deep voice: "Who are you? Why have you trespassed into my territory?"

Hua Qiangu stepped forward: "We need the spiritual artifacts on your body to break the fog seal on Youming Valley. We hope you can cooperate."

The demonic serpent let out a burst of wild laughter: "If you want what's on me, then let's see if you have the ability!" With that, the three-headed demonic serpent opened its blood-red maw and pounced towards the group.

Sha Qianmo quickly stepped forward, his weapon clashing with the snake's head, sparks flying: "Come and taste my power!"

Not to be outdone, Ni Mantian engaged in a fierce battle with another snake head: "Today I will definitely take this spiritual creature from you!"

Tang Bao anxiously shouted from the side, "Everyone be careful!" At the same time, she used the magic she had learned to attack the side of the demon snake, trying to distract it.

Shuofeng calmly searched for the serpent's weakness: "Its abdominal defense seems weaker; we can concentrate our attack there."

Upon hearing this, the group adjusted their tactics and joined forces to attack the serpent's abdomen. After a fierce battle, the three-headed serpent gradually became exhausted.

Just then, the serpent suddenly spewed out a cloud of black smoke, which contained toxins.

"Oh no, it's poisonous!" Qingyu shouted a warning.

Everyone quickly held their breath and used their spiritual power to resist the invasion of the toxin.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Hua Qiangu unleashed her ultimate move, a powerful beam of light striking the demon snake's vital point, causing the three-headed demon snake to collapse with a thud.

Hua Qiangu retrieved a spiritual object from the demon snake—a spiritual pearl emitting a blue light. "With this spiritual pearl, we can now break the fog seal."

The group returned to the edge of the mist with the spirit orb and, following the instructions of the runes, placed it in a specific location. The spirit orb slowly rose, releasing a powerful light, and the mist gradually dissipated.

Through the mist, they arrived at an ancient temple. The temple radiated a dazzling light, its doors tightly shut, inscribed with legends about the Sword of Light.

"This is where the Sword of Light is located," Bai Zihua said.

However, when they pushed open the temple doors, they found three swords inside, each radiating a different light: one exuded a fiery aura, one flowed with a cold, icy light, and the other was surrounded by a peaceful glow.

"How can there be three swords? Which one is the real Sword of Light?" You Ruo asked in confusion.

Dongfang Yuqing analyzed, "These three swords must all have their special features. We need to choose carefully, as choosing the wrong one may lead to unexpected consequences."

Sha Qianmo looked at the three swords with some impatience: "Who cares? I think this Flame Sword looks the most powerful, so let's choose it."

Ni Mantian objected: "Not necessarily. This cold, gleaming sword may have a special power to counteract it."

After pondering for a moment, Hua Qiangu turned to ask the patriarch, "Patriarch, what are your thoughts?"

The patriarch looked at the three swords and slowly said, "These three swords represent different powers. The Flame Sword symbolizes destruction and passion, the Cold Light Sword represents calmness and confinement, while the sword with peaceful light may be the true Sword of Light, representing vitality and protection. But this is just my speculation. The final choice is up to you, Xiao Gu."

Hua Qiangu walked to the three swords, carefully sensing their aura. She closed her eyes, silently contemplating the peace and future of the immortal world. After a moment, she opened her eyes and firmly grasped the sword surrounded by a serene light.

The moment she grasped the sword, its blade shone brightly, illuminating the entire temple. "I believe this is the Sword of Light; it will bring us peace and hope!"

Looking at the Sword of Light in Hua Qiangu's hand, everyone was filled with confidence and anticipation. They knew that with this sword, they would continue to face future challenges and protect the peace and tranquility of the immortal world.

However, just as they were about to leave the temple, the temple suddenly shook violently, seemingly because the removal of the Sword of Light had triggered some kind of mechanism.

"Oh no, the temple is about to collapse! We have to get out of here!" Shuofeng shouted.

Everyone hurriedly ran towards the outside of the temple and managed to escape at the last moment before the temple collapsed.

They returned to the outskirts of the Valley of Darkness with the Sword of Light. Although they were exhausted, their eyes were filled with determination.

"With the Sword of Light, we now have a powerful weapon to fight against the forces of darkness," Hua Qiangu said.

"Next, we will let the forces of darkness know that our determination is unwavering!" Sha Qianmo waved his fist.

The group embarked on their journey back to Changliu Mountain, knowing that a new battle was about to begin. They would face all challenges with the Sword of Light and their unwavering faith in each other, continuing to write their own legendary story in this world of immortals and heroes.
