Transmigrating to become Hua Qiangu

As soon as Hua Qiangu and her group passed through the barrier, a powerful sense of oppression rushed towards them.

"This dark power is so strong!" You Ruo gripped Hua Qiangu's arm tightly, her voice trembling slightly.

"Everyone be careful, don't get separated." Bai Zihua warily surveyed his surroundings, the sword in his hand gleaming faintly.

Sha Qianmo frowned. "This place looks unusual; it's definitely full of traps."

"What are you afraid of? With us here, we will definitely break this dark power!" Hua Qiangu's eyes were firm as she encouraged everyone.

Suddenly, the ground began to shake violently, and black spikes rose up from the ground.

"Watch out!" Shuofeng shouted, pulling Ni Mantian away quickly.

"This is going to trap us here to die!" Ni Mantian said angrily.

The little one popped its head out of the space and said, "Sister, these spikes seem to be a defense mechanism of the dark forces. We need to find its core control source to stop them."

"Baby, can you sense where the core is?" Hua Qiangu asked.

"I'll try, but there's too much interference here." The little one closed his eyes and tried to sense his surroundings.

Tangbao flew anxiously around, shouting, "Come on, Mengbao, you can do it!"

A moment later, the baby opened its eyes and said, "Sister, it's in that direction, but there's a very strong barrier protecting it."

"Then we have to go!" Hua Qiangu headed in the direction the baby pointed without hesitation.

As they approached the barrier, a massive, dark phantom appeared.

"You ants, how dare you trespass into my territory!" the dark phantom roared in a low voice.

"Who are you? Why are you releasing this dark power to harm the world?" Bai Zihua stepped forward and questioned the phantom.

"I am the master of darkness, and this world is meant to be shrouded in darkness. Your struggles are futile," the phantom laughed maniacally.

"Don't even think about it! We will never allow you to do that!" Hua Qiangu shouted angrily.

"Then come on, let's see what you're capable of!" Phantom said, and launched an attack.

Suddenly, dark energy orbs rained down on them. Everyone quickly cast spells to defend themselves.

"This attack is never-ending!" Luo Shiyi shouted, his forehead already covered in sweat.

"We can't just defend; we have to find a way to counterattack," Dongfang Yuqing calmly analyzed.

"I'll distract its attack, you guys find a chance to break through the barrier." Sha Qianmo said, then rushed towards the phantom, his red robes drawing a dazzling arc in the air.

"Sha Qianmo, be careful!" Hua Qiangu shouted worriedly.

Sha Qianmo unleashed powerful magic to contend with the phantom, shouting, "Come on, monster, taste my power!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hua Qiangu and the others concentrated their efforts on attacking the barrier.

"Everyone, let's work together and not stop!" Hua Qiangu shouted.

Ni Mantian formed hand seals, "Watch this!"

The combined power of everyone slammed into the barrier. The barrier began to flicker and cracks appeared.

"We're almost there! Just a little more effort!" Youruo exclaimed excitedly.

Just then, Sha Qianmo was struck by the phantom and fell heavily to the ground.

"Sha Qianmo!" Hua Qiangu exclaimed in surprise, wanting to check on his condition.

"Never mind me, break the barrier first!" Sha Qianmo shouted, a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Hua Qiangu gritted her teeth and turned to continue attacking the barrier. With a loud bang, the barrier was finally broken.

"We're inside!" Tangbao shouted happily.

However, what they saw inside horrified them. In the center was a massive, dark vortex, surrounded by countless souls corrupted by dark power.

"These souls are so pitiful," Hua Qiangu said with heartache.

"How can we stop this dark vortex?" Shuofeng asked.

The patriarch pondered for a moment, “I think we need to use powerful purification abilities. Perhaps we can try combining our spiritual power with the spiritual spring in the space.”

“But this is too dangerous. If we fail, we will all be swallowed by the dark vortex,” Bai Zihua said worriedly.

"But this is our only chance!" Hua Qiangu looked at everyone. "Are you all willing to believe me?"

“Xiao Gu, we believe in you!” You Ruo said firmly.

"Alright, let's begin." Hua Qiangu took a deep breath, entered the space, and drew out the power of the spiritual spring. Everyone poured their spiritual power into it.

As spiritual energy continued to flow in, the power of the spiritual spring gradually grew stronger, forming a huge purifying light.

"Go!" Hua Qiangu commanded, and the purifying light shot towards the dark vortex.

The dark vortex began to struggle violently, emitting bursts of roars.

"We must hold on!" Dongfang Yuqing shouted, his face pale.

With everyone's efforts, the dark vortex gradually dissipated, and the corrupted souls were freed.

"We did it!" Tang Bao cheered excitedly.

Looking at the exhausted crowd, Hua Qiangu was deeply moved. "Thank you everyone, we did it together."

However, before they could celebrate for long, they discovered that the place was beginning to collapse.

"Oh no, this place is going to collapse! We have to get out of here!" Luo Shiyi shouted.

Supporting each other, the group ran towards the exit. At the last moment, they successfully escaped this dangerous place.

Back at Changliu Mountain, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"This was really close," Ni Mantian exclaimed.

"But we've also become stronger," Shuofeng said with a smile.

Looking at the beautiful scenery of Changliu Mountain, Hua Qiangu secretly vowed to protect this land and the people around her.

Life returned to normal. Hua Qiangu continued her cultivation and exploration of the mysteries of space, and her friendship with her companions grew stronger with each adventure. They knew that more challenges awaited them in the future, but as long as they were together, there was nothing they could not overcome.
