Chapter 672: The Secret Revealed: Xiao Bei Explores the Mystery
"Come with me to investigate the strange phenomenon following the explosion."
Lingfeng understood, and the two of them walked cautiously towards the center of the explosion.
The air was filled with the smell of burning. The shock wave from the explosion flattened the surrounding trees and covered the ground with rubble and ashes.
Every time Xiao Bei took a step, his feet made a "crunching" sound, as if he was stepping on broken bones, which was creepy.
The closer you get to the center, the stronger the strange fluctuations become.
Xiao Bei felt as if his body was being pulled by an invisible force, and he involuntarily quickened his pace.
The power in his body became purer and more powerful after being baptized by the explosion of the holy object.
He even felt that there was a subtle connection between himself and this world.
Suddenly, Xiao Bei stopped.
He felt a strong resistance, like an invisible wall blocking his way.
He stretched out his hand and tried to touch the "wall", but felt a tingling pain in his fingertips, as if he was pricked by a needle.
"This is..." Xiao Bei frowned, his heart full of doubts.
Lingfeng also noticed something was wrong. He drew his sword and looked around vigilantly.
"Be careful, Xiao Bei, something seems to be wrong here."
Xiao Bei nodded and exerted the strength in his body to the extreme, trying to break through this resistance.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not shake this invisible wall at all.
He even felt that this resistance was gradually increasing, as if mocking his arrogance.
The air around him became more and more oppressive, and an inexplicable sense of fear spread in Xiao Bei's heart.
He felt as if he was in a huge cage, imprisoned by a mysterious force.
"Xiao Bei, we..." Ling Feng was interrupted by Xiao Bei before he could finish his words.
"No, I must find out what's going on!"
"boom!"
With a loud bang, Xiao Bei's fist collided with the invisible wall, causing a strong energy wave.
However, the wall remained motionless, as if it was not affected at all.
Xiao Bei groaned and staggered back a few steps.
His face was pale and a trace of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.
"Xiao Bei!" Ling Feng hurried forward to support him, "Are you okay?"
Xiao Bei shook his head, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the invisible wall with a firm gaze.
"I won't give up..." he murmured to himself, "I must uncover this secret..."
Suddenly, he felt a familiar sound of footsteps behind him.
"Xiao Bei!"
Bei Li ran over and shouted anxiously, "Xiao Bei, how are you?" But before she got close to Xiao Bei, she was bounced back by an invisible force.
She staggered a few steps, steadied herself, and looked in astonishment at the barrier in front of her that was flashing with light blue light.
Within the barrier, the figures of Xiao Bei and Ling Feng were clearly visible, but it seemed as if they were separated by another world.
"Xiao Bei!" Bei Li tried to get closer again, but was still pushed away by an invisible force.
She reached out and touched the barrier, and felt a biting chill at her fingertips, as if she had touched ten thousand years of ice.
A feeling of powerlessness surged in her heart, and the despair of being so close yet so far away almost suffocated her.
The air around seemed to be frozen, so oppressive that it made people feel breathless.
Inside the barrier, Xiao Bei was still fighting against the mysterious force.
The power was unpredictable, sometimes like a howling wind, sometimes like huge waves crashing on the shore, and sometimes like sharp needles piercing the bones.
Xiao Bei's eyes were sharp and his body was agile, he dodged every attack flexibly.
He formed seals with his hands, and golden immortal power formed a protective light around him, resisting the invasion of invisible forces.
The space flickered as they fought, sometimes bright as day, sometimes dark as night.
On the scorched earth after the explosion, rubble rolled and trees swayed, making a teeth-grinding friction sound.
The air was filled with a pungent burnt smell mixed with the fishy smell of soil, which was nauseating.
Ling Feng watched nervously from the side, gripping his sword tightly, ready to support Xiao Bei at any time.
But he understood that this mysterious power was extraordinary, and acting rashly would only cause trouble.
He could only pray that Xiao Bei could find a breakthrough and break this strange deadlock.
Fine beads of sweat oozed out of Xiao Bei's forehead, but his eyes remained firm.
He felt that this force was not a simple attack, but more like a temptation, a test.
He took a deep breath and changed his strategy. Instead of blindly resisting, he tried to feel and understand the nature of this power.
He slowly closed his eyes, exerted the immortal power in his body to the extreme, and felt the subtle changes in the surrounding space.
A trace of strange energy fluctuations entered his perception, flowing through his meridians like a tiny electric current.
He felt that his connection with the world became closer, as if they had become one.
Suddenly, his eyes shot open, "I understand..." he whispered, with a confident smile on his face.
He looked at Lingfeng and said in a deep voice: "Lingfeng, help me protect the law."
Although Lingfeng didn't understand what Xiao Bei was going to do, he nodded and agreed without hesitation.
He drew his sword, protected Xiao Bei behind him, and watched everything around him vigilantly.
Xiao Bei sat cross-legged, made seals with his hands, and muttered something.
A powerful energy wave emanated from him, and the surrounding space began to vibrate violently.
Seeing this, Bei Li, who was outside the barrier, became even more anxious. She shouted loudly, "Xiao Bei, don't!"
Xiao Bei ignored Bei Li's cry. He continued to circulate his immortal power. The marks on his hands became more and more complicated and the speed became faster and faster.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes abruptly, thrust his palms forward, and a beam of golden light shot towards the barrier shimmering with pale blue light...
"Wait!" The golden light did not hit the barrier as expected, but under Xiao Bei's control, it turned into countless tiny spots of light, like fireflies, surrounding the barrier.
The light flickered, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if communicating silently with the barrier.
Ling Feng widened his eyes, and the sword in his hand trembled slightly. He didn't understand Xiao Bei's intention at all, and his doubts grew even more.
The tense atmosphere eased slightly, replaced by an eerie tranquility.
Bei Li, who was outside the barrier, saw Xiao Bei's actions and his originally anxious expression gradually calmed down.
She understood Xiao Bei's wisdom and ability, and he must be looking for a solution to the problem at this moment.
She encouraged Xiao Bei with her eyes, conveying her trust and love to him.
Xiao Bei felt Bei Li's gaze, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
He knew that no matter how big the difficulties were, Beili would support him from behind.
This warm power made him more determined and fearless.
Xiao Bei closed his eyes and focused all his attention on those spots of light.
He felt the subtle interaction between the light spots and the barrier, and felt the flow of the mysterious power within the barrier.
He seemed to be in a huge energy field, and everything around him became clear and transparent.
He can "see" the flow of energy, "hear" the whispers of energy, and even "touch" the pulsation of energy.
As time passed, Xiao Bei's breathing became more and more even and slower.
He seemed to merge with the surrounding environment and become a part of this world.
Suddenly, he felt a slight fluctuation and an extremely subtle pause in the mysterious power within the barrier.
The pause was fleeting, but was captured sharply by Xiao Bei.
He suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam in his eyes.
"Now!" he whispered, with a barely perceptible smile on his lips.
He slowly raised his right hand, pointed his index finger at a certain part of the barrier, and said in a deep voice: "Break!"
A golden light flashed, and a dazzling beam of light shot out from Xiao Bei's fingertips, hitting the weak point of the barrier.
There was no earth-shattering noise, nor deafening roar, only a soft "pop" sound, like a bubble bursting, and the seemingly indestructible light blue barrier shattered like thin ice, turning into starlight and dissipating in the air.
Xiao Bei let out a long sigh, slowly stood up, and a sense of accomplishment arose spontaneously.
He clenched his fists, feeling the surging immortal power in his body, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The air around seemed to become fresher, and the feeling of oppression disappeared, replaced by a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
Even the mysterious aura that was originally violent and raging became docile at this moment, like a surrendered beast, crawling quietly at his feet.
Seeing this, Ling Feng couldn't help but give Xiao Bei a thumbs up, his face full of admiration.
"Xiao Bei, you are so awesome!" he exclaimed sincerely.
Xiao Bei smiled modestly and turned his gaze behind the barrier.
There, the scene that was originally obscured by the barrier finally appeared clearly before his eyes.
It was a deep cave, the entrance of which was covered by a layer of light black mist, making it impossible to see what was inside.
A mysterious aura emanates from the depths of the cave, making people shudder.
Xiao Bei took a deep breath and walked towards the cave.
With every step he took, the air around him became colder and the mysterious aura became stronger.
He felt his heartbeat begin to quicken, and the immortal power in his body began to circulate involuntarily.
Lingfeng followed closely behind, gripping the sword tightly in his hand and scanning everything around him vigilantly.
He felt an inexplicable danger approaching, like a beast lurking in the darkness, ready to launch a fatal attack at any time.
Just as Xiao Bei was about to step into the cave, a powerful dark aura suddenly gushed out from the depths of the cave, sweeping over everything around it like a roaring dragon.
This dark aura carries a suffocating sense of oppression, as if it is going to swallow up everything.
Xiao Bei's face changed and he stopped abruptly.
He felt a huge threat, a dark aura far more powerful than any enemy he had encountered before.
"Xiao Bei, be careful!" Ling Feng exclaimed, and quickly stood in front of Xiao Bei, holding the sword in his hand across his chest, ready to fight.
Xiao Bei took a deep breath and circulated the immortal power in his body to the extreme.
He stared at the swirling dark energy with a sharp gaze, and whispered, "Come on!"
