The Immortal Physician's Transmigration: Miraculous Rejuvenation

After their triumphant return from Shadow Valley, the members of the "Three Realms Guardian Alliance" were in high spirits. Their strength and teamwork had been greatly enhanced in the practical trials. However, Ye Yuanchen and the others did not let their guard down. They knew that the dark forces would not give up easily, and the black-robed wizard they encountered in Shadow Valley might only be the tip of the iceberg of the dark forces.

At the alliance headquarters, Ye Yuanchen, Mu Wanyue, Lu Zixuan, and Bai Youruo sat together, carefully discussing the clues they had obtained during the trial.

“Although we defeated that black-robed wizard, his appearance was no accident. He seems to have some ulterior motive in Shadow Valley, which may be closely related to the resurgence of dark forces.” Ye Yuanchen said with a serious expression and a furrowed brow.

Mu Wanyue nodded in agreement: "That's right, and I also discovered that the dark magic he used was slightly different from the dark forces we had encountered before, yet they seemed to originate from the same source. There might be a much larger dark force organization hidden behind this."

Lu Zixuan took out some dark rune fragments he had collected in the temple and placed them on the table to study them carefully: "I have never seen these runes before, but judging from the dark power they contain, they should be used to enhance the effects of dark magic, or as a key component of some kind of dark ritual."

Bai Youruo played the Lingxu Lingyin Flute, trying to perceive information related to these clues from the flute's sound: "During the battle, I sensed a powerful will hidden deep in the darkness through the flute's sound, seemingly controlling everything. This will is extremely powerful, and it is definitely not something an ordinary dark wizard could possess."

After in-depth discussions, they decided to launch a full investigation into these clues. Ye Yuanchen led a group of alliance members to various libraries in the cultivation world to consult ancient texts and search for records related to dark runes and black-robed wizards. Mu Wanyue went to the Spirit Realm to communicate with the wise men of the Spirit Race, exploring whether similar dark forces had appeared in the history of the Spirit Realm and how to deal with them. Lu Zixuan stayed at the alliance headquarters to conduct in-depth research on the collected fragments of dark runes, attempting to decipher their secrets. Bai Youruo traveled between the three realms, using her flute music to sense the flow of dark power, trying to find the next possible location for the dark forces' actions.

Ye Yuanchen and his companions spent countless hours poring over ancient texts in the various libraries of the cultivation world. Finally, in the secret treasury of an ancient sect, they discovered a tattered tome. The tome recorded a dark history from a thousand years ago, mentioning a mysterious organization called the "Dark Abyss Cult." This organization attempted to awaken a slumbering dark god through dark rituals to rule the Three Realms. The dark rituals described in the tome were strikingly similar to the dark rune fragments collected by Lu Zixuan.

"It seems we're on the right track. This 'Dark Abyss Cult' is very likely the mastermind we're looking for," Ye Yuanchen said solemnly, holding the ancient text.

Meanwhile, Mu Wanyue engaged in in-depth exchanges with the wise men of the Spirit Clan in the Spirit Realm. An elder of the Spirit Clan recalled an ancient legend, which mentioned a sealed dark land deep within the Spirit Realm. It was said to have been one of the sources of dark power, and any creature that approached it would be corrupted by darkness. Recently, some unusual phenomena in the Spirit Realm seemed to have a subtle connection with this dark land.

"Could it be that the forces of darkness want to break the seal on that dark land in order to obtain even more powerful dark energy?" Mu Wanyue pondered to herself. She decided to venture deep into the spirit realm to explore the secrets of this sealed dark land.

Lu Zixuan's research on the dark rune fragments at the Alliance headquarters also made some progress. He discovered that these runes combined to form a complex array pattern. This array seemed to be used to guide and gather dark power, and it resonated with a specific location. Through further calculations, he determined that this location was beneath an abandoned ancient city in the mortal realm.

"It seems the dark forces' target is likely that abandoned ancient city in the mortal realm. We need to inform everyone as soon as possible." Lu Zixuan said, preparing to pass the message on to Ye Yuanchen and Mu Wanyue.

Bai Youruo wandered throughout the Three Realms, using her flute music to sense the flow of dark power. She discovered that this dark power was gradually converging towards a certain direction in the mortal realm. After tracking it, she found that this direction was precisely the abandoned ancient city mentioned by Lu Zixuan.

"The situation is bad. It seems that the dark forces have already begun their operation in the abandoned ancient city." Bai Youruo realized the urgency of the situation and immediately rushed to the alliance headquarters to meet up with Lu Zixuan.

Upon learning the news, Ye Yuanchen and Mu Wanyue quickly led their respective teams to the abandoned ancient city in the mortal realm. When they arrived, they found the ancient city shrouded in a thick aura of darkness. The sky was filled with dark clouds, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the dark aura surged from the ground like black smoke.

"We're still a step too late. The dark forces have already begun their operation." Ye Yuanchen looked at the scene before him, his heart filled with anxiety.

At that moment, a sinister laugh echoed from the heart of the ancient city: "Haha, you've finally arrived. But it's all too late. The dark ritual is about to be completed, the Dark God is about to awaken, and the three realms will be plunged into eternal darkness!"

With a burst of laughter, a figure slowly emerged from the darkness. This was none other than the black-robed wizard who had been defeated in Shadow Valley. However, he looked completely different now. He exuded a more powerful aura of darkness, his eyes flashed with a blood-red light, and the wand in his hand had become even more eerie, the black crystal at its tip shimmering with a chilling light.

"You're still alive!" Ye Yuanchen glared at the black-robed wizard, the Spirit Void Holy Sword in his hand trembling involuntarily, as if yearning to clash with the dark forces once more.

The black-robed wizard sneered, "The last failure was just an accident. This time, none of you will be able to stop us."

Ye Yuanchen and the others quickly formed a battle formation, preparing for a desperate fight against the black-robed wizard. However, they knew that this opponent was far more powerful than before, and the consequences would be unimaginable once the dark ritual was completed.

"We can't let the dark ritual continue! Everyone, give it your all!" Ye Yuanchen shouted, charging towards the black-robed wizard first. He unleashed the pinnacle move of the "Spirit Realm Chaos Suppressing God Technique," the light from the Spirit Void Holy Sword illuminating the entire dark sky. The golden sword light, like a blazing sun, slashed towards the black-robed wizard.

Mu Wanyue brandished her Spirit Whip, unleashing the "Spirit Saint Illusion Dance Demon-Slaying Technique." The whip danced in the darkness, pink and seven-colored light intertwining to form dazzling beams of light and shadow, like a giant blooming lotus flower, flying towards the black-robed wizard. The lotus light and shadow contained powerful purifying energy, attempting to dispel the dark aura emanating from the black-robed wizard.

Lu Zixuan swiftly set up the "Spirit Void Chaos Extermination Array" around him. The array shone brightly, and beams of spiritual energy shot into the sky, trapping the black-robed wizard within. At the same time, the array continuously absorbed the surrounding dark energy, transforming it into pure spiritual energy to counteract the black-robed wizard.

Bai Youruo played the Spiritual Sound Flute, perfectly fusing her soul power with the power of the sacred object. The flute's sound transformed into a powerful purifying storm, surging towards the black-robed wizard like a raging tide. The flute's sound contained powerful spiritual energy, attempting to interfere with the black-robed wizard's thoughts and disrupt his ongoing dark ritual.

The alliance members unleashed their unique skills, engaging in fierce combat with the black-robed wizard. The cultivators cast various powerful spells, their spiritual energy flashing in the darkness; the spirit race used their spiritual arts to manipulate the forces of nature to attack the black-robed wizard; and the mortal members, under Lu Zixuan's command, used various traps and weapons to assist in the attack.

The black-robed wizard remained unfazed by the onslaught. He brandished his wand, unleashing streams of dark energy that clashed with the attacks. The dark energy intertwined with the spiritual light, erupting in a deafening roar.

During the fierce battle, Ye Yuanchen discovered that although the black-robed wizard was powerful, his attention seemed to be constantly focused on maintaining the dark ritual. If he could interrupt the dark ritual, he could weaken the black-robed wizard's power and thus achieve victory.

"Listen up, everyone! Let's concentrate our forces to attack the core of the dark ritual and disrupt it!" Ye Yuanchen shouted.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately adjusted their attack direction, concentrating all their power on the dark ritual in the center of the ancient city. However, a powerful dark shield was erected around the dark ritual, and the attacks only caused ripples when they struck it, failing to inflict any substantial damage.

“This shield is very strong; we need to find a way to break through it,” Mu Wanyue said.

Lu Zixuan quickly considered a solution. He observed the structure of the dark shield and discovered several key nodes on it. By destroying these nodes, the shield could be broken.

"Everyone, follow me! We'll attack these nodes on the shield!" Lu Zixuan said, pointing to several locations on the shield.

Ye Yuanchen, Mu Wanyue, Bai Youruo, and the alliance members launched attacks on the nodes indicated by Lu Zixuan. In an instant, a barrage of powerful attacks converged on these nodes. After a fierce exchange, cracks finally appeared in the dark shield.

"Give it your all, and we'll break through soon!" Ye Yuanchen shouted.

With a renewed surge of power, the dark shield finally shattered with a deafening roar. Ye Yuanchen seized the opportunity to rush towards the core of the dark ritual, preparing to destroy it completely.

The black-robed wizard was horrified at the sight. He rushed towards Ye Yuanchen, desperately trying to stop him from disrupting the dark ritual. An even fiercer battle unfolded at the heart of the dark ritual. Would Ye Yuanchen and his companions be able to successfully destroy the ritual and prevent the awakening of the Dark God? Everything remained uncertain, but their conviction was as firm as steel. For the peace of the Three Realms, they would spare no effort.
