Chapter 928: Breaking the Dangerous Road: Survival from Desperate Situation
"Find it, a hidden spiritual pearl. Only then can you truly leave here."
The mysterious old man's voice echoed in the empty space, and every word hit Xiao Bei's heart like a heavy hammer.
This white space is boundless, like a huge maze or a whirlpool that swallows everything.
Spiritual bead?
hide?
Xiao Bei's brows were tightly furrowed as time passed by relentlessly like the sand in an hourglass, and each grain of sand carried a sense of urgency and oppression.
"Time is limited." The four words added by the old man were like a death warrant.
Xiao Bei took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
He knew that panicking would only lead him to failure faster.
He closed his eyes and slowly released his spiritual consciousness, like an invisible net, trying to capture any abnormal fluctuations in the space.
"Since it is a spiritual bead, it must contain spiritual power. As long as I find the source of the spiritual power fluctuations..." Xiao Bei pondered silently in his heart.
He began to grope in this white space.
Every step was taken with extreme caution.
Under my feet is the empty ground, as if I am stepping on the clouds, or on the edge of the abyss.
Every step you take carries unknown dangers.
This space seemed to have life and sensed Xiao Bei's intentions.
It began to change and twist, trying to confuse Xiao Bei's perception.
"Hmph, a mere trifle!" Xiao Bei snorted coldly. He was the eternal ruler of the fairy world, how could he be fooled by such a mere illusion?
He mobilized the immortal power in his body,
"The Eye of Delusion!"
This is Xiao Bei's unique magical power, which can see through all illusions and point directly to the origin.
Under the gaze of the Eye of Truth, the distortion and changes in space gradually disappeared, revealing its original appearance.
However, this did not make Xiao Bei feel relieved, but made him more vigilant.
Because he discovered that this space was filled with countless traps and interferences!
Some are invisible energy vortexes that will instantly devour anyone who approaches; some are hidden spatial cracks that will exile you into the endless void if you are not careful; and some are strange illusions that will evoke the deepest fears in people and make them lost...
This is not a search for spiritual pearls, it is clearly a life-or-death test!
Xiao Bei felt that his immortal power was constantly draining away. This space was like a huge black hole, ruthlessly devouring everything he had.
His steps began to become heavy, and every step seemed like a struggle against fate.
"Damn it! Does this old guy want to trap me to death here?" Xiao Bei cursed in his heart.
He felt as if fate was always against him, setting obstacles for him again and again, as if trying to force him into a desperate situation.
Time passed minute by minute, but Xiao Bei still didn't find any clues about the spirit pearl.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and his breathing became rapid.
Anxiety, like an invisible hand, began to strangle his throat.
He didn't know what would be waiting for him once time ran out.
Am I trapped in this space forever?
Or will it be completely swallowed up by this space?
The feeling of physical weakness became stronger and stronger, and every movement seemed to be in great pain.
The loss of his immortal power made him feel like a burnt-out oil lamp that could go out at any time.
"No! I can't give up!" Xiao Bei gritted his teeth and forced himself to cheer up.
He thought of Beili, the promise they had made to each other, and the responsibilities he shouldered.
"I still want to save Beili, I still want to restore my reputation, I still want to... fight back!"
The strong will to survive turned into a powerful force, supporting Xiao Bei to move forward.
At this moment, a faint light suddenly appeared in Xiao Bei's sight.
The light was so faint that it was almost imperceptible, but it was particularly eye-catching in this white space.
"That is..." Xiao Bei's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously walked towards the direction of the light.
The closer you get, the brighter the light becomes.
Finally, Xiao Bei saw the source of the light - a fist-sized bead, quietly floating in the air.
The bead is milky white, emitting a soft halo on the surface, and a pure spiritual power fluctuation slowly emanates from it.
"Spirit Pearl!" A hint of ecstasy flashed in Xiao Bei's eyes. He finally found it!
However, when he was about to reach out to take the spirit pearl, he discovered that the spirit pearl was surrounded by a powerful restriction!
This restriction is invisible and intangible, but it exudes a heart-pounding aura.
"Another restriction!" Xiao Bei's face became serious.
He knew that if he wanted to get the spirit pearl, he had to break this restriction first.
He took a deep breath, mobilized the remaining immortal power in his body, and began to try to break the restriction.
He first tried to use brute force and punched the restriction.
However, his fist seemed to hit a ball of cotton, and all the force was absorbed by the restriction without causing any ripples.
"No, brute force won't work!" Xiao Bei immediately changed his strategy.
He began to observe the structure of the ban, looking for its flaws.
He discovered that this restriction was composed of countless tiny runes, which were arranged according to some mysterious rules to form a perfect whole.
"This is...an ancient restriction!" Xiao Bei didn't expect that this old guy would use an ancient restriction to protect the spirit pearl.
The ancient restriction was powerful and extremely difficult to break. But Xiao Bei did not retreat.
He began to recall the knowledge of formations he had learned, trying to find a way to break the ancient ban.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Xiao Bei's forehead was covered with sweat.
Finally, he
"found it!"
He formed seals with his hands and muttered something, and streams of immortal power shot out from his fingertips and were injected into the restriction.
"In my name, break!"
With Xiao Bei's low shout, the runes on the restriction began to vibrate violently.
Click...
A slight cracking sound was heard, and a crack appeared on the restriction.
There's hope! Xiao Bei was delighted and continued to increase the output of his immortal power.
Click... click...
The cracks became more and more numerous and larger and larger. Finally, with Xiao Bei's efforts, the restriction completely collapsed!
The spirit pearl, freed from the restraints, slowly floated down.
Xiao Bei stretched out his hand and gently caught the spirit bead.
However, the moment Xiao Bei touched the spirit pearl——
"Young man, your time seems to be running out." "Young man, your time seems to be running out."
These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Xiao Bei's heart again.
Before he could think about it, the spirit bead in his hand suddenly exploded and released a powerful force.
This force turned into a huge phantom and pounced towards Xiao Bei like a giant beast.
Xiao Bei was caught off guard and was hit by the phantom's sharp claws. Blood immediately gushed out of his mouth. His body was thrown out heavily and hit a void barrier somewhere in space, almost knocking him unconscious.
"Damn it!" Xiao Bei gritted his teeth and used all his strength to steady his body.
He quickly adjusted his breathing, with a determined glint in his eyes.
He knew that this was his only way out and he had to give it a try.
The phantom released by the spirit pearl was huge in size, with a cold light flashing in its eyes.
Each of its attacks carried destructive power, as if it wanted to completely destroy Xiao Bei.
Xiao Bei didn't dare to take it head-on, so he could only keep dodging and looking for opportunities to counterattack.
Every time he dodged, his physical strength and spiritual power were exhausted, but he still persisted and refused to give up.
"Xiao Bei, hold on!" A gentle voice suddenly came, it was Fairy Qingyu.
She seemed to sense Xiao Bei's danger and quickly performed a special magic to transfer part of her magic power to Xiao Bei.
Xiao Bei felt a warm power surge into his body, and his spirits were lifted.
"Beili... I can't let everyone down!" A strong fighting spirit surged in Xiao Bei's heart. He adjusted his posture, and the fairy sword in his hand shone with dazzling light again.
He suddenly leaped up and slashed at the phantom's vitals with his sword.
The sword light turned into a flash of lightning and hit the phantom's chest accurately.
The phantom let out a shrill roar and his body began to tremble violently.
Xiao Bei took the opportunity to launch continuous attacks, each sword carrying endless anger and determination.
Finally, the phantom began to weaken and gradually dissipated.
Xiao Bei did not stop. He used up the last bit of his spiritual power and held the spirit pearl tightly in his hand.
The light on the surface of the spirit pearl became softer, but the impurities in it also began to appear.
Xiao Bei took a deep breath and began to purify the spirit pearl with his immortal power.
As time passed, the impurities in the spirit pearl gradually disappeared, and the pure spiritual power began to condense again.
However, just when the spirit pearl was about to be completely purified, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Bei.
The mysterious old man appeared, his expression was very strange, and he seemed to be hesitating about something.
Xiao Bei felt nervous. He held the spirit bead tightly and stared at the old man firmly, as if he was waiting for something.
The mysterious old man's eyes moved back and forth between Xiao Bei and Lingzhu. Finally, he seemed to have made a decision, but his lips did not move.
Xiao Bei's heart was full of doubts, but he didn't have time to think too much, because he knew that this moment determined the direction of everything.
At this moment, the corners of the old man's mouth rose slightly, revealing an inexplicable smile.
"Young man, you really..."
