Chapter 413: Exploring the Immortals and Demons: Xiao Bei’s Insight
Deep in the border between immortals and demons, the thick immortal and demonic aura is like thick ink, which cannot be dissolved or dispersed.
The air was filled with a suffocating sense of oppression, and the energy fluctuations surged like waves, impacting Xiao Bei's consciousness wave after wave.
Xiao Bei took a deep breath. How should I describe this smell? It was a bit like a mixture of rotten eggs and durian, which was disgusting.
"This place is a bit too hellish, isn't it?" He couldn't help but complain.
The surrounding scenery is eerie and terrifying. The dead trees are as hideous as ghost claws. There is no grass on the ground. Only the dark brown soil exudes a rotten smell.
The wind was howling and chilling, like the howling of ghosts and wolves, which was creepy.
Xiao Bei felt a chill on his back, as if countless pairs of eyes were secretly watching him.
"This atmosphere is definitely like a scene from a horror movie!" he thought to himself.
Suddenly, Xiao Bei stopped and fixed his eyes on something not far ahead.
There, a translucent barrier was faintly visible, emitting an ancient and powerful aura.
"Oh my god, what the hell is this thing?" Xiao Bei frowned, feeling a little uneasy.
The light emitted by the barrier is sometimes golden and sometimes as black as ink, just like the constant transformation of yin and yang.
The space around the barrier was distorted, and even light was bent.
"This thing looks like it's not easy to deal with!" Xiao Bei couldn't help swallowing.
He cautiously reached out and tried to touch the barrier.
As soon as his fingertips touched the barrier, a powerful force instantly rebounded back, making his arm numb.
"Hiss, this thing is quite something!" Xiao Bei quickly withdrew his hand, secretly thanking himself for not acting rashly.
"System, scan this barrier and see what's going on?" Xiao Bei muttered to himself.
The system's voice rang in his mind: "Ding! A high-level energy barrier has been detected. It contains the power of immortals and demons and is extremely difficult to break."
"Extremely high? How high?" Xiao Bei asked.
"Ding! With the host's current strength, the probability of cracking is less than 0.01%."
Xiao Bei: “…”
"Well, it seems that forcing our way in won't work." Xiao Bei scratched his head, "What should I do?"
Bei Li walked to Xiao Bei, gently pulled his sleeve, and said softly: "Xiao Bei, let me try."
Xiao Bei turned to look at Bei Li, only to see a glint of confidence in her eyes. "Do you have a solution?"
Beili smiled slightly and said mysteriously, "Guess?"
Xiao Bei frowned slightly, looking at the barrier in front of him, thinking secretly in his heart.
He took a deep breath, mobilized the power of the system, and began to carefully observe every detail of the barrier.
Time passed minute by minute, the air around seemed to become heavier, and fine beads of sweat seeped out of Xiao Bei's forehead.
"Xiao Bei, come on!" Bei Li's voice sounded in his ears. The voice was gentle and firm, like a breeze, soothing the anxiety in Xiao Bei's heart.
He turned his head and looked at Beili. Beili had an encouraging smile on her face, as if telling him that she was always by his side.
Xiao Bei concentrated again, and his eyes gradually became sharper.
After a long period of exploration, he finally found a flaw - a corner of the barrier where the energy fluctuations seemed to be slightly weakened.
"This is it!" Xiao Bei was delighted and clenched his fists, ready to strike with all his strength.
He took a deep breath, and the immortal energy in his body surged and gathered in his right fist.
Xiao Bei's eyes narrowed, as if he could see through all obstacles. His fist instantly turned into a bolt of lightning and crashed into the flaw.
There was a deafening roar in the air, and the energy fluctuations receded like a tide. The barrier finally cracked under Xiao Bei's heavy blow.
"It's done!" Xiao Bei showed a confident smile on his face, and the sense of accomplishment in his heart was indescribable.
The tense atmosphere around him eased slightly, but he did not let his guard down, as he knew this was just the beginning.
He looked at Beili, her eyes full of pride and concern. They smiled at each other, their hearts filled with tacit understanding.
However, at this moment, a strange wind blew, and an even more pungent smell filled the air.
A sense of uneasiness arose in Xiao Bei's heart. He tightly grasped the sword in his hand and looked around vigilantly.
Suddenly, he felt the ground beneath his feet shake slightly, as if something was stirring in the dark.
"Xiao Bei, be careful!" Bei Li's voice sounded again, this time with a hint of urgency.
Xiao Bei nodded, and just as he was about to step out of the other side of the gap, he suddenly stopped, his eyes fixed on the darkness ahead, a sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"You came quite quickly, but today's show has just begun." Xiao Bei said lightly, the sword in his hand trembling slightly, ready to meet the upcoming challenge.
As soon as Xiao Bei passed through the barrier, a foul odor hit him in the face. It was even stronger than the rotten egg and durian mixture from before, and it was simply at the level of "biochemical weapons".
Before he could complain, a group of strange creatures emerged from the darkness. The style of the painting was even more abstract than the monsters in horror movies!
These creatures look all sorts of weird. Some look like octopuses with wings, some look like cacti covered in thorns, and some look like...
In short, there are all kinds of strange shapes, which makes people wonder whether alien species have invaded the world of cultivation.
Their attack methods are also quite bizarre. Some spray venom, some shoot lasers, and some directly use their bodies to collide. They are proficient in all kinds of martial arts.
"Oh my god, what the hell is this?" Xiao Bei complained while waving his sword and using his unique skill - "Xiao's Chaos Cloak Sword Technique".
However, his attacks on these creatures were like hitting cotton and had no effect at all.
"This defense is simply amazing!" Xiao Bei was secretly shocked. It seemed that this group of monsters were not easy to deal with.
He became cautious, constantly changing his attack methods to look for their weaknesses.
The battle became more and more intense, and the surrounding immortal and demonic energies were stirred into greater chaos. The air was filled with the crackling sound of energy explosions, as lively as setting off firecrackers during the New Year.
Bei Li was terrified watching from the side, and reminded Xiao Bei from time to time: "Xiao Bei, be careful!"
These strange creatures seemed endless, coming in waves.
Xiao Bei and others gradually became exhausted, and Righteous Man B was also injured and fell to the ground, covering his arm.
"Brother, are you okay?" Xiao Bei asked with concern.
Seeing his companions injured, Xiao Bei felt filled with self-blame.
The enemies around them attacked more fiercely, and an oppressive atmosphere enveloped them, like an invisible net that bound them tightly.
At this moment, Xiao Bei suddenly felt a powerful energy wave coming from all around.
He looked up and saw the immortal and demonic energy around him begin to swirl, forming a huge vortex...
"Wait, this feeling..." Xiao Bei narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.
In the center of the vortex, the power of immortals and demons intertwined into a chaos, emitting an unsettling aura.
Xiao Bei instantly understood that the source of energy for these strange creatures was this thing!
He grinned and thought to himself, "It's a power bank! Watch me cut off your power!"
Xiao Bei took a deep breath, and the "system power" in his body started running wildly, like a supercomputer running at full power.
He no longer confronted them head-on, but chose to use his "unique understanding" of the power of immortals and demons to disrupt the flow of energy around him.
His body is like a "signal transmitter", accurately capturing the subtle changes in the energy of immortals and demons, and using his own power to interfere.
The surrounding energy vortex began to tremble violently, like a drunk spinning top, swaying and threatening to collapse at any moment.
Those strange creatures that were originally ferocious and aggressive suddenly became like robots with the power plug pulled out. They became listless and their fighting power dropped sharply.
"Oh, no, I have to go home to find my mother!" A monster that looked like a cactus wailed and ran away first.
Seeing this, the other monsters also turned around and fled, wishing they had more legs.
Xiao Bei looked at the monsters fleeing in panic, his lips curled up slightly, and he was in a good mood.
He felt that today he was simply the "demolition office director", specializing in destroying the energy balance.
The people around were also stunned. They had never seen such a "magic operation" and they all looked at Xiao Bei with admiration.
"Brother Xiao Bei, you are so awesome!" Justice Man B struggled to stand up and gave Xiao Bei a thumbs up.
"This operation is simply a heavenly show!"
Xiao Bei waved his hand and said modestly: "Keep a low profile, just basic operations."
After a brief respite, Xiao Bei continued to explore deeper.
He discovered that behind the fusion of immortals and demons, there seemed to be a more terrifying conspiracy hidden.
On the ground, some ancient runes are faintly visible, emitting a mysterious light, as if telling an unknown history.
Xiao Bei studied these runes carefully, trying to find the answer.
"These runes... seem to be some kind of ancient sealing technique." Xiao Bei frowned, and lightly ran his fingers across the runes on the ground. "The fusion of immortals and demons is definitely not simple."
Just when they were about to solve the mystery, a mysterious force suddenly appeared and wiped out the runes on the ground in an instant, as if they had never existed.
Xiao Bei was shocked. He felt that this mysterious power was stronger and more bizarre than the previous monster.
"What's going on? Is this a loophole?" Xiao Bei looked around in confusion, but there was no one around. The power just now came and went without a trace, like an illusion.
Xiao Bei looked towards the place where the rune disappeared, his eyes gradually becoming firm: "It seems that the mastermind behind this doesn't want us to know the truth!"
He slowly exhaled, then turned around and took a step in one direction, leaving only one sentence: "It seems that the best is yet to come..."
