Chapter 223 Continuous Challenges
Just as Chen Xian was thinking hard, the little beast followed him from behind, holding a piece of luminous jade in its mouth. The little beast ran to Chen Xian, put the jade down, and then called to Chen Xian.
Chen Xian picked up the jade and looked at it carefully, and found that the lines on the jade and the symbols on the stone door had some kind of echo. A glimmer of hope surged in his heart, and he moved the jade closer to the symbol on the stone door.
Instantly, the jade shone brightly, and the symbols on the stone door began to flicker, as if activated. As the light intertwined and entangled, the stone door slowly opened, and an ancient and mysterious atmosphere came to the face.
Chen Xian took Yaya and walked into the door carefully. Inside the door was a huge stone room, surrounded by various strange objects, some of which were shining, and some of which were emitting cold air.
In the center of the stone chamber, there is a huge crystal ball. The ball seems to contain endless power, with light flowing like a dream.
Just as Chen Xian and Yaya were amazed at the sight before them, the crystal ball suddenly trembled violently, and the light became flickering. Then, an illusory figure slowly emerged from the crystal ball.
"You are finally here." said the figure, his voice ethereal and distant.
Chen Xian looked at the figure warily and asked, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
"I am the guardian of this relic. I have been waiting for a long time, just to entrust the mission to you." The figure said slowly.
"Mission? What mission?" Chen Xian was full of doubts.
"This continent is about to face a catastrophe, and only you can save it." The figure said, pointing to the crystal ball, "This crystal ball contains powerful power, but you need to unlock it."
Chen Xian frowned and asked, "How do I unlock it?"
"Feel with your heart, and use your courage and wisdom to break free from the shackles." The figure gradually became blurred.
Chen Xian took a deep breath, slowly approached the crystal ball, and placed his hand on it. Suddenly, a powerful force surged into his body, impacting his meridians.
Yaya watched nervously from the side, clutching the corner of her clothes tightly in her little hands.
Chen Xian gritted his teeth and endured the impact of this force. Veins popped out on his forehead and sweat fell like rain.
Finally, with Chen Xian's persistence, the crystal ball shone brightly, and a soft and powerful force enveloped him and Yaya.
"Success!" Yaya shouted excitedly.
However, before they could be happy for too long, the stone chamber suddenly shook violently, and objects around it fell down one after another.
"Oh no, this place is going to collapse!" Chen Xian pulled Yaya and ran towards the exit.
Just as they were about to run out of the stone chamber, a huge stone fell from above, blocking their way.
Chen Xian's eyes focused, and he circulated his spiritual power, smashing the stone into pieces.
They rushed out of the stone chamber and ran along the passage. Behind them, rocks kept falling and the passage began to collapse.
Finally, they ran out of the passage and came outside.
"Brother, where are we going next?" Yaya asked, panting.
Chen Xian looked into the distance and said, "No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are ahead, we must move forward bravely."
At this time, a strange light appeared in the sky, guiding them in the direction of advance. Chen Xian led Yaya and Xiaoshou and walked towards the direction of the light.
Chen Xian and his companions continued to move forward in the direction indicated by the strange light. They had to sleep in the open air and eat in the open air along the way, but they did not dare to slack off for the slightest.
As they walked, they came to an ancient town. There was a strange atmosphere in the town, and the streets were empty, without a single person in sight.
Chen Xian had a bad feeling in his heart. He carefully pulled Yaya and looked around vigilantly.
Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew, and a faint cry was heard in the wind. Yaya was so scared that she hugged Chen Xian's arm tightly, and the little beast also roared uneasily.
"Don't be afraid, Yaya." Chen Xian comforted his sister and walked forward more cautiously.
At the corner of the street, they found a dilapidated temple. The door of the temple was half-open, and a faint candlelight shone from inside.
Chen Xian hesitated for a moment, but decided to go in and take a look. When they entered the temple, they saw an ancient statue standing in the center, with traces of time on its face.
At this moment, the statue suddenly moved, opened its eyes, and shot out two cold rays of light.
"Anyone who trespasses will die!" the statue let out a low roar.
Chen Xian quickly protected Yaya behind him and prepared for battle.
"We have no intention of offending you, we are just passing by here." said Chen Xian.
The statue didn't listen to the explanation and swung its huge arms towards them. Chen Xian dodged sideways and used magic to fight back.
For a moment, the temple was filled with flashing lights and the sound of spells colliding was heard everywhere.
After a fierce battle, Chen Xian discovered that the statue's weakness was on its back. Taking advantage of the gap between the statue's attacks, he leaped behind the statue and struck it with all his strength.
The statue fell to the ground with a loud bang and turned into a pile of rubble.
Chen Xian breathed a sigh of relief and continued forward with Yaya and Xiaoshou.
After leaving the temple, they came to the central square of the town, where a group of mysterious people in black robes suddenly appeared and surrounded them.
“Hand over the power of the crystal ball and I will spare your lives!” said the mysterious man in the lead.
Chen Xian snorted coldly: "Don't even think about it!"
The two sides immediately started a fierce battle. The mysterious man's magic was strange and unpredictable, and Chen Xian gradually fell into trouble.
At this moment, the little beast suddenly emitted a powerful sound wave, which shocked the mysterious people and made them retreat.
Chen Xian took the opportunity to adjust his tactics and cooperated with Xiaoshou and Yaya, gradually turning the situation around.
In the end, the mysterious man fled in embarrassment.
Chen Xian and his companions did not dare to stay for long and continued on their journey.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, they came to a dense forest filled with thick fog, making it difficult to tell the direction.
Chen Xian was carefully leading the way in front when he suddenly heard a melodious flute sound.
The sound of the flute seemed to have some kind of magic, attracting them deeper into the forest.
Deep in the forest, they saw a woman in white, sitting under a big tree and playing the flute.
The woman turned her head and a mysterious smile appeared on her face.
"You're finally here." said the woman.
Chen Xian asked cautiously: "Who are you?"
The woman stood up and said softly, "I am the guardian of this forest. I can help you."
Chen Xian looked at her doubtfully.
The woman seemed to see what he was thinking and said, "Follow me."
Chen Xian, Yaya and Xiaoshou followed the woman and came to a cave hidden in the forest.
There was an ancient book in the cave. The woman picked up the book and handed it to Chen Xian.
“This book may help you deal with the coming crisis,” the woman said.
Chen Xian took the book, opened it and saw that it contained many mysterious spells and ancient legends.
Just when Chen Xian wanted to thank the woman, she suddenly disappeared.
Chen Xian and his companions left the cave and continued on their way.
After Chen Xian and his companions left the cave with the mysterious book, they continued to grope their way forward in the forest. Suddenly, there was a violent tremor in front of them, and the ground began to shake.
I saw a huge two-headed monster rushing out of the woods. Its body was as big as a hill. Its two heads were spewing fire and ice respectively, and its eyes were flashing with ferocious light.
Chen Xian immediately protected Yaya behind him, and the little beast also took an attacking posture.
"Everyone be careful!" Chen Xian shouted loudly.
The two-headed monster roared and pounced towards them. Chen Xian quickly formed seals with his hands and cast a powerful magic shield, temporarily blocking the monster's attack.
The little beast took the opportunity to jump up and bite the monster's eye fiercely. The monster felt the pain and shook its head angrily, throwing the little beast away.
Chen Xian took this opportunity to fly towards the monster, the spiritual sword in his hand gleaming with light, and chopped at the monster's legs. The monster dodged flexibly, and blazing flames spewed out of its mouth, heading straight for Chen Xian.
Chen Xian rolled sideways to avoid the attack of the flames and launched another attack. Yaya watched anxiously from the side, cheering for Chen Xian and the little beast.
The monster's attacks became more and more fierce, and Chen Xian and the little beast gradually found it difficult to resist. At this moment, Chen Xian suddenly remembered a spell from the mysterious book.
He concentrated his mind and chanted a spell. A powerful force surged out of his hands and turned into a beam of light that shot towards the monster. The monster was hit by the light and howled in pain.
The little beast took the opportunity to pounce on the monster again and bit its neck. Chen Xian took the opportunity to cast a series of attack spells, beating the monster with scars.
However, the monster did not fall down. It launched a final frantic counterattack, attacking them with a mixture of ice and fire.
Chen Xian and the little beast worked closely together to resist the monster's attack. After a fierce life-and-death battle, Chen Xian finally found the monster's fatal weakness and stabbed it with a sword.
The two-headed monster fell to the ground with a bang and turned into a cloud of smoke and dissipated in the air.
Chen Xian and Xiaoshou collapsed to the ground due to exhaustion. Yaya ran over, her eyes full of concern and joy.
"Brother, Xiaoshou, you are so awesome!" Yaya cheered.
