Ye Yuanchen and the others rushed toward the mysterious light with anticipation and vigilance. As they got closer, the light became more and more dazzling, and strong spiritual energy fluctuations rushed toward them, making their hearts beat faster involuntarily.

"This power... seems extraordinary. Everyone, proceed with caution." Ye Yuanchen stared intently at the direction of the light, the Spirit Void Holy Sword in his hand trembling slightly, as if responding to this powerful force.

Mu Wanyue nodded gently, her hand gripping the Spirit Void Whip tightly. The pink whip shone brightly, and she was ready to deal with any unexpected situations that might arise: "Yes, we've come this far with great difficulty, so we must not be careless."

Lu Zixuan carefully observed the surrounding environment and spiritual energy fluctuations. The detection magic weapon in his hand flickered with a faint light. Although the function of the magic weapon was greatly limited in this chaotic land, he still tried to obtain more useful information from it: "There seems to be a special frequency hidden in this light, which may be related to the sacred object we are looking for."

Bai Youruo played the Spiritual Sound Flute, its melodious notes attempting to penetrate the dense spiritual energy fluctuations and uncover its mysteries. The flute's sound spread through the chaotic land, encountering some interference, yet it steadfastly continued its journey towards the light.

When they finally reached the source of the light, the sight before them astonished them. A massive stone platform stood there, and suspended on it floated a crystal sphere radiating a seven-colored light. Runes flickered within the sphere, containing boundless, mysterious power. Golden halos surrounded the crystal sphere, slowly rotating and emanating powerful spiritual energy that dispelled the surrounding chaos, creating a relatively tranquil space.

"Could this be the sacred object we've been looking for?" Mu Wanyue asked in surprise, her eyes revealing a hint of excitement and curiosity.

Ye Yuanchen cautiously approached the stone platform, carefully observing the crystal ball: "Judging from the power emanating from this crystal ball, it is no ordinary object and may very well be the key to saving the Three Realms. But we cannot act rashly; let's first check if there are any dangers."

Lu Zixuan stepped forward and took out some special materials and magical artifacts from his storage treasure, beginning to probe and analyze the crystal ball. However, just as his artifact approached the crystal ball, it suddenly released a powerful energy wave, blasting Lu Zixuan's artifact away.

"This sacred object seems to have a self-protection mechanism; we need to be careful," Lu Zixuan said, frowning. He rubbed his arm, which was numb from the shock, and his vigilance towards the crystal ball increased even more.

Bai Youruo played her spirit flute, attempting to communicate with the crystal ball using the power of the music, hoping to find a way to break through its defenses. The flute music echoed around the crystal ball, and its light seemed to flicker slightly, but quickly returned to normal.

“This crystal ball has responded to our probing, but it doesn’t seem willing to be easily controlled by us,” Bai Youruo said softly as she stopped playing.

Ye Yuanchen pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps this sacred object is waiting for us to prove its worth, or it needs to meet certain specific conditions before we can take it away. Let's search the surrounding area carefully for any clues."

The group began to search carefully around the stone platform, leaving no corner unchecked. Suddenly, Mu Wanyue discovered some ancient runes and patterns on one side of the platform. These runes and patterns were somewhat similar to those they had seen in the mysterious temple, but not exactly the same.

"Come quick, look! There are some runes here!" Mu Wanyue shouted.

Ye Yuanchen and the others quickly gathered around, carefully studying the runes and patterns, trying to decipher useful information from them. After some effort, Lu Zixuan finally discovered the patterns and meanings of these runes.

“These runes seem to be an ancient puzzle. We need to activate some mechanisms on the stone platform in a specific order to disarm the relic’s defenses and obtain its power,” Lu Zixuan said, his eyes gleaming with excitement, as if he could already see the dawn of success.

Based on Lu Zixuan's interpretation, the group began searching for hidden mechanisms on the stone platform. They cautiously explored, afraid of triggering any dangerous traps. Finally, they found several grooves hidden on the surface of the stone platform, the shapes of which matched the shapes of the runes.

“This should be it. Let’s try injecting spiritual power into these grooves in the order of the runes,” Ye Yuanchen said. He took a deep breath, aimed the tip of the Spirit Void Holy Sword at the first groove, and slowly injected spiritual power into it.

Mu Wanyue, Lu Zixuan, and Bai Youruo also poured their spiritual power into the corresponding grooves in turn. As the spiritual power was poured in, the runes on the stone platform began to flash, and beams of spiritual power intertwined and weaved on the stone platform, forming a complex spiritual power pattern.

Suddenly, the golden halo around the crystal ball began to spin faster, emitting a buzzing sound. The crystal ball also began to tremble violently, its light growing increasingly dazzling, as if some major change was about to occur.

"Everyone be careful, prepare for any possible situation!" Ye Yuanchen shouted, gripping the Spirit Void Holy Sword tightly and watching the crystal ball warily.

As everyone watched intently, the crystal ball suddenly emitted a powerful beam of light that shot straight into the sky. The beam contained a strong and pure power, a power that filled them with immense awe and reverence.

"Could this be the release of the sacred artifact's power?" Mu Wanyue exclaimed in surprise, her eyes filled with anticipation and excitement.

However, before they could even rejoice, a powerful recoil erupted from the stone platform, blasting them away. They crashed heavily to the ground, feeling their blood churning and their spiritual energy in disarray.

"What happened?" Ye Yuanchen struggled to get up. His face was pale and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were still fixed on the crystal ball on the stone platform.

Lu Zixuan also struggled to his feet. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "It seems there might be a problem with our activation method, or there are other conditions that haven't been met. We need to rethink it."

Bai Youruo played the Spirit Flute, attempting to use the power of the music to calm the chaotic spiritual energy and injured bodies of the group. The flute music echoed in the air, and gradually, the group's physical condition improved, but their hearts remained heavy.

They knew that obtaining this sacred relic would be no easy task, but they did not give up. They regrouped and once again surrounded the stone platform and crystal ball, carefully studying the runes and mechanisms, trying to find the correct activation method to obtain the relic's power and save the three realms from peril.
