The Immortal Physician's Transmigration: Miraculous Rejuvenation

Chapter 157 Ruins Exploration and Mining Crisis

Hidden in the shadows of an abandoned mine cave, Ye Yuanchen kept a close eye on the group of black-robed figures. They moved in perfect unison around a black magic circle, chanting incantations. The eerie light emanating from the circle grew increasingly intense, enveloping the entire cave in a sinister atmosphere. Ye Yuanchen knew that acting rashly now would be unwise; he had to wait for the right opportunity to thwart the black-robed figures' plot.

The leader of the black-robed figures stood before the magic circle, gripping a staff that emanated a dark aura, his expression fanatical. He chanted an ancient incantation aloud, and as the incantation resounded, a wisp of black smoke slowly rose from the magic circle, gradually condensing into a blurry figure. Ye Yuanchen's heart tightened; he could sense the dark power steadily increasing, and if this ritual were to be completed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Just as Ye Yuanchen was pondering how to make his move, one of the men in black robes suddenly noticed something amiss. "Something's not right. I think I sense someone spying on me." He looked warily in the direction where Ye Yuanchen was hiding.

Ye Yuanchen inwardly cried out in alarm, knowing he could no longer hide. He swiftly drew the Spirit Void Holy Sword, its sacred power instantly infusing the blade, golden light illuminating the entire cave. "You remnants of darkness, still daring to stir up trouble, today is your end!" Ye Yuanchen roared, unleashing the "Spirit Realm Chaos Suppressing God Technique," golden sword energy surging forth like a dragon emerging from the sea, sweeping towards the black-robed man.

Upon seeing this, the men in black robes immediately stopped their ritual and drew their weapons to fight Ye Yuanchen. The leader of the black-robed men swung his staff, and a black energy beam shot towards Ye Yuanchen. Ye Yuanchen dodged it easily, and at the same time, his sword energy shifted, slashing towards the leader of the black-robed men. The leader of the black-robed men hurriedly used his staff to block, and with a "clang," the sword energy collided with the staff, sending sparks flying.

The other black-robed figures surrounded Ye Yuanchen, trapping him in the middle. Ye Yuanchen showed no fear, wielding his Spirit Void Holy Sword with impenetrable precision, golden sword energy crisscrossing and constantly repelling the approaching black-robed figures. However, the black-robed figures were numerous and seemed determined to complete the ritual at all costs, hindering Ye Yuanchen's progress, and he gradually found himself in a fierce battle.

At this moment, Bai Youruo was traveling towards the mysterious ruins in the Spirit Realm. Along the way, the scenery of the Spirit Realm seemed peaceful, yet it subtly exuded an indescribable eeriness. Bai Youruo remained vigilant, gripping her Spirit Void Flute tightly. Suddenly, a group of dark creatures from the Spirit Realm surged forth from all around. These creatures resembled black panthers, their bodies radiating dark spiritual power, their eyes flashing with an eerie green light.

"It seems this is an obstacle set up by the forces of darkness," Bai Youruo said softly. She began to play the Spirit Void Flute, its melodious notes containing immense power, transforming into golden sound waves that surged towards the dark creatures. Wherever the sound waves reached, the dark creatures howled in pain, their forms momentarily halting.

Bai Youruo seized the opportunity to continue forward, but the dark creatures quickly recovered and pursued her again. While playing her flute to distract them, Bai Youruo pondered a countermeasure. She discovered that although these dark creatures were numerous, their movements seemed to be somewhat restricted, always confined to a certain area.

"Could there be some special formation controlling them here?" Bai Youruo's heart stirred, and she began to carefully observe her surroundings. Finally, she discovered a rune shimmering with dark light on a boulder not far away. Bai Youruo understood that if she could destroy this rune, she might be able to escape the clutches of the dark creatures.

She concentrated her spiritual power and shot a golden sound wave towards the rune. The sound wave struck the rune, causing its light to flicker erratically, and the dark creatures' movements became chaotic. Bai Youruo seized the opportunity and played the Spirit Void Flute again, unleashing an even stronger golden sound wave, which shattered the rune with a "bang." As the rune shattered, the dark creatures collapsed to the ground, turning into black smoke and dissipating.

Having rid herself of the dark creatures, Bai Youruo continued her journey and finally arrived at the mysterious ruins. The ruins' gate was tightly shut, covered with mysterious runes. Bai Youruo carefully examined the runes and discovered similarities to those she had seen on the black crystal. She tried to touch the runes with her spiritual power, attempting to find a way to open the gate.

At the Alliance headquarters, Lu Zixuan learned that Ye Yuanchen and Bai Youruo had already begun their operations, and he was extremely anxious. He knew the importance of the "Spirit Heart Grass" in breaking the "Heart-Eating Curse," so he accelerated his search for clues about it. Lu Zixuan consulted almost all the ancient books in the Alliance's treasury and finally found a record of the "Spirit Heart Grass" in a tattered tome.

"The Spirit Heart Grass grows in the coldest places of the Spirit Realm. It resembles an orchid, is pale purple in color, and contains pure spiritual power that can dispel all kinds of dark curses in the world," Lu Zixuan murmured to himself. He knew that the coldest places of the Spirit Realm were fraught with danger, but in order to find a way to break the "Heart-Eating Curse," he had to go there.

Lu Zixuan packed his bags, preparing to depart for the frigid lands of the Spirit Realm. Before leaving, he left a letter informing Mu Wanyue of his whereabouts and asking her to keep an eye on Ye Yuanchen and Bai Youruo's situation.

Meanwhile, in the abandoned mine, the battle between Ye Yuanchen and the black-robed men intensified. Under the command of their leader, the black-robed men formed a dark array, attempting to trap Ye Yuanchen. Ye Yuanchen fought his way through the array, but could not break through. Seeing this, the leader of the black-robed men revealed a smug smile: "Ye Yuanchen, you cannot escape today. Once we complete the ritual, darkness will once again shroud the Three Realms!"

Ye Yuanchen was anxious; he knew this stalemate couldn't continue. He concentrated all his spiritual power, perfectly fusing the power of the sacred artifact with his own, and unleashed the strongest strike of the "Spirit Realm Chaos Suppressing God Technique." A golden sword aura containing world-destroying power soared into the sky, striking the dark array, causing the array's light to flicker erratically.

"Break!" Ye Yuanchen roared, unleashing his sword energy once more, finally causing a crack to appear in the dark formation. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ye Yuanchen burst out of the formation and charged towards the black-robed leader. The black-robed leader was terrified and hurriedly swung his staff to defend. Ye Yuanchen's sword energy was unstoppable, directly knocking the staff away, and then he thrust his sword at the black-robed leader. Unable to dodge in time, the black-robed leader was struck by the sword energy and fell to the ground.

Seeing their leader fall, the other black-robed men panicked. Ye Yuanchen seized the opportunity and quickly dealt with the remaining black-robed men. However, when he turned to look at the black magic circle, he found that the dark figures within it had become clearer, and a powerful dark force was surging from it.

Ye Yuanchen knew that this dark figure was the key to the black-robed man's ritual, and he had to stop the release of dark power. Ye Yuanchen raised the Spirit Void Holy Sword once more, preparing to face an even greater challenge. Meanwhile, would Bai Youruo successfully open the gate to the mysterious ruins and find crucial clues about the dark forces? What would Lu Zixuan encounter on his journey to the extreme cold of the Spirit Realm? Everything was shrouded in uncertainty. The battle for the Three Realms, fought by Ye Yuanchen and his companions, continued, and grew increasingly difficult.
