The Immortal Physician's Transmigration: Miraculous Rejuvenation

Chapter 124 Exploring the Ruins, Danger Lurks Everywhere

Ye Yuanchen and Mu Wanyue, carrying the guardian key they obtained from the Spirit Realm, were preparing to return to the Alliance headquarters to reunite with Lu Zixuan and Bai Youruo when they received a message from Lu Zixuan informing them of unusual spiritual energy fluctuations related to dark power near an ancient ruin in the cultivation world. Without hesitation, the two changed their plans and headed towards the ruin in the cultivation world.

Throughout the journey, Ye Yuanchen gripped the Guardian Key tightly, his expression grave. "It seems the dark forces are active in various places; this ruin might be related to the other two Guardian Keys."

Mu Wanyue nodded slightly, gripping the Spirit Whip tightly, her eyes wary. "No matter what, we must be careful and not let the dark forces succeed."

When they arrived at the ruins, Lu Zixuan and Bai Youruo were already waiting for them. A thin layer of black mist surrounded the ruins, with eerie lights flickering within it, giving off a sinister and terrifying feeling.

"Young Master Ye, Miss Mu, you've finally arrived." Lu Zixuan greeted them immediately upon seeing them.

Bai Youruo also stepped forward, her expression worried, and said, "Young Master Ye, the dark aura of this ruin is even stronger than we imagined. We have already detected it, and there seems to be a powerful dark force surging within."

Ye Yuanchen gazed at the ruins, his eyes resolute. "Now that we're here, there's no reason to back down. Everyone be careful and be prepared for any unforeseen circumstances."

The group cautiously stepped into the ruins. The interior was dark and gloomy, with only the occasional flickering eerie green light from the walls barely illuminating the path ahead. Various ancient statues were placed around them, each with a different form, but all exuding an oppressive aura.

"These statues look a bit strange, so don't let your guard down," Ye Yuanchen whispered a reminder.

As soon as the words were spoken, one of the statues suddenly moved, swinging its huge arm and smashing it towards the crowd.

"Watch out!" Ye Yuanchen shouted, quickly drawing his Spirit Void Holy Sword and unleashing the "Spirit Realm Chaos Suppressing God Technique," a golden sword aura slashing towards the statue's arm.

With a clang, the sword energy collided with the statue's arm, sending sparks flying. The statue, however, was not greatly affected; it continued to swing its arm, and at the same time, the other statues came to life, surrounding the crowd.

Mu Wanyue wielded the Spirit Whip, its pink and rainbow-colored shadows dancing in the air as it lashed at the approaching statues. "These statues are quite troublesome!"

Bai Youruo played the Lingxu Lingyin Flute, the sound transforming into golden sound waves that impacted the statue. The sound waves, like sharp blades, sliced ​​through the statue's surface, leaving cracks. "Let the flute music weaken their power!"

Lu Zixuan quickly set up a small attack formation, from which beams of spiritual energy shot out and struck the statue. "Behold my move, Spirit Void Demon-Slaying Light!"

However, the statues were numerous and exceptionally sturdy. Although the group's attacks caused some damage, it was difficult to destroy them all in a short time.

"Young Master Ye, this can't go on. We need to find a way to break through the encirclement," Mu Wanyue shouted while fighting.

Ye Yuanchen knew he had to find the statues' weakness as soon as possible. While parrying their attacks, he carefully observed them. Suddenly, he noticed a faint light emanating from the statues' eyes, seemingly the core of their power.

"Listen up, everyone! Attack the statues' eyes! That might be their weak point!" Ye Yuanchen shouted.

The group immediately changed their attack strategy, launching attacks towards the statue's eyes. Ye Yuanchen unleashed an advanced move of the "Spirit Realm Chaos Suppressing God Technique," his golden sword energy shooting towards the statue's eyes like countless sharp blades.

Mu Wanyue wielded the Spirit Whip, its tip striking the statue's eye precisely. Bai Youruo played the Spirit Flute, its notes transforming into golden ropes that attempted to bind the statue's arms, preventing it from attacking. Lu Zixuan, meanwhile, activated his attack formation with all his might, unleashing beams of spiritual energy that rained down on the statue's eyes.

With the combined attack of the crowd, one of the statues was struck in the eye with a dull thud before collapsing to the ground and turning into a pile of rubble.

"Alright, keep attacking!" Ye Yuanchen shouted.

Encouraged, the group intensified their attack. As more and more statues' eyes were struck, they fell one after another. Finally, they successfully broke through the encirclement of statues.

"Phew, it's finally resolved." Mu Wanyue breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't let your guard down, this is just the beginning," Ye Yuanchen said.

The group continued deeper into the ruins. Deep within, they discovered a vast, circular hall. In the center of the hall stood a black stone platform, upon which rested a crystal ball emitting a ghostly blue light. Strange runes surrounded the crystal ball, their faint glow seeming to whisper ancient secrets.

“This crystal ball looks very unusual; it seems to be closely related to the plans of the dark forces,” Lu Zixuan said.

Ye Yuanchen stepped forward and carefully examined the crystal ball and runes. Suddenly, the runes shone brightly, and a black beam of light shot out from the crystal ball, striking Ye Yuanchen.

"Young Master Ye!" Mu Wanyue exclaimed and rushed over immediately.

Ye Yuanchen felt a powerful dark force surge into his body, attempting to erode his spiritual power. He gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength to circulate the power of the sacred artifact to resist the dark force.

"I'm fine. This dark power won't control me so easily!" Ye Yuanchen shouted.

Bai Youruo quickly played the Lingxu Lingyin Flute, and the flute music transformed into golden purifying power, which flowed into Ye Yuanchen's body to help him resist the erosion of dark forces.

Mu Wanyue swung her Spirit Whip at the crystal ball, attempting to break it and stop the influx of dark power.

However, when the spirit whip struck the crystal ball, it was bounced back by an invisible force.

"This crystal ball has powerful defensive capabilities; we need to find a way to break through it," Mu Wanyue said.

Lu Zixuan looked at the runes on the crystal ball and quickly took out a rune encyclopedia to study them. "Young Master Ye, these runes are an ancient dark seal rune. To break it, we need to find a specific sequence of decryption runes."

While battling the dark forces, Ye Yuanchen said, "Zixuan, find a way to break this as soon as possible. Wanyue and Youruo, protect me and prevent any other accidents from happening."

Lu Zixuan quickly immersed himself in deciphering the runes, carefully studying the rune charts, his forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.

Time passed second by second, and the dark power within Ye Yuanchen grew stronger and stronger, causing his face to become increasingly pale.

"Young Master Ye, please hold on a little longer, I'll find a solution soon!" Lu Zixuan said anxiously.

Finally, Lu Zixuan found the sequence to decipher the runes. He quickly inscribed the runes on the stone platform according to the sequence. The runes shimmered with light, echoing the runes on the crystal ball.

The black light on the crystal ball gradually weakened, and Ye Yuanchen took the opportunity to fully circulate the power of the sacred object, forcing the dark power out of his body.

"Phew, that was close." Ye Yuanchen breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Just then, the stone platform suddenly trembled, and a hidden compartment slowly rose from beneath it. Inside the compartment, a key emitting a silvery light lay quietly.

"Could this be the guardian key we've been looking for?" Mu Wanyue exclaimed in surprise.

Ye Yuanchen stepped forward, picked up the key, and sensed the powerful force contained within it. "That's right, this is the Guardian Key. It seems our guess was correct; this ruin is indeed related to the Guardian Key."

However, before they could even rejoice, a group of men in black robes suddenly surged out from all around the hall. The leader of the men in black robes sneered, "You think you can get the Guardian Key so easily? You're too naive! We're taking this key!"

Ye Yuanchen looked at the man in black robes and said coldly, "You remnants of dark forces dare to commit evil. Today is your doomsday!"

With a wave of his hand, the black-robed man summoned other black-robed figures around him to attack. Their dark weapons gleamed with an eerie light as they lunged at Ye Yuanchen and his companions.

"Attack!" Ye Yuanchen shouted, charging towards the black-robed men first. He brandished the Spirit Void Holy Sword, golden sword energy crisscrossing, instantly felling several black-robed men.

Mu Wanyue brandished the Spirit Whip, its pink and rainbow-colored shadows dancing in the air, repelling the approaching black-robed figures.

Bai Youruo played the Lingxu Lingyin Flute, the notes transforming into golden sound waves that impacted the black-robed man's body. The sound waves were like sharp blades, slicing through the man's soul and causing him to scream in agony.

Lu Zixuan quickly set up a small attack formation, and beams of spiritual energy shot out from the formation, hitting the black-robed man and causing explosions.

Although the number of men in black robes was large, they gradually found it difficult to withstand the combined attacks of Ye Yuanchen and the others.

"Young Master Ye, these men in black robes seem to be stalling for time. They must have some kind of conspiracy," Mu Wanyue shouted while fighting.

Ye Yuanchen felt a chill run down his spine. He realized that although the black-robed man's attacks seemed fierce, he was actually deliberately guiding their position.

"Oh no, everyone be careful! They might be setting a trap!" Ye Yuanchen shouted.

Just then, black cracks suddenly appeared in the floor of the hall, from which large amounts of dark mist surged forth. The dark mist quickly spread, enveloping everyone.

"This dark fog is strange, everyone be careful!" Ye Yuanchen shouted.

In the dark fog, everyone could only see blurry figures, making communication between them difficult.

"Young Master Ye, where are you?" Mu Wanyue called out anxiously.

"I'm here, everyone don't panic, stay alert!" Ye Yuanchen replied.

Suddenly, a figure in black robes burst out from the dark mist and attacked Ye Yuanchen. Ye Yuanchen swiftly wielded the Spirit Void Holy Sword to defend himself, simultaneously unleashing the "Spirit Realm Chaos Suppressing God Technique," golden sword energy flashing within the dark mist.

However, the men in black robes seemed very familiar with the dark mist, and their attacks became more covert and ferocious. Ye Yuanchen and the others were in a predicament.

Will Ye Yuanchen and his companions be able to escape the attacks of the black-robed men in the dark mist and successfully protect the Guardian Key? What other sinister traps will the dark forces set in these ruins? But no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lie ahead, Ye Yuanchen and his companions' determination to protect the Three Realms is as firm as steel, and they will go all out to meet the new challenges.
