Chapter 54 Let's see where you can run now.
Zhuang Yu grabbed the flying pill and glanced suspiciously at Wang Yao, who was running over breathlessly.
"Where did this come from?" He held the pill in his hand, sniffed it, and a refreshing medicinal fragrance entered his nostrils, instantly calming the restless spiritual energy within him.
“It was given to me by a mysterious person,” Wang Yao said, pointing to the dark woods in the distance. “He said he could help you.”
Zhuang Yu's eyes sharpened as he looked around and saw several figures rapidly approaching.
Chen Ba!
And his lackey, Li Si!
They caught up so quickly.
It seems that the news of this ancient treasure has attracted more than just them.
"Eat it first!" Time was of the essence, and there was no time to think. Zhuang Yu swallowed the pill in one gulp.
The pill melted instantly upon entering the mouth, transforming into a warm current that flowed throughout the body. The meridians, which had been aching slightly from the forced activation of spiritual power, now felt as if bathed in a spring breeze, indescribably comfortable.
"Let's go!" Zhuang Yu pulled Wang Yao up and continued running towards the direction where the ancient treasure was.
Ahead, a barrier shimmering with pale blue light blocked their path like an invisible wall.
The air around the barrier distorted slightly, emanating a chilling energy fluctuation.
"Damn it!" Zhuang Yu cursed inwardly. The protective restrictions on this ancient treasure were even stronger than he had imagined.
"Let me give it a try!" Zhuang Yu gathered his spiritual power in his palm and slammed it down on the restriction.
With a loud "Boom!", the restriction remained unmoved, but Zhuang Yu was forced back several steps by a powerful recoil, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Brother Zhuang Yu!" Wang Yao exclaimed and quickly helped him up.
"I'm fine," Zhuang Yu said, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. His face was a little pale.
The power of this restriction far exceeded his expectations; forcibly breaking through it would only result in serious injury.
Chen Ba and Li Si drew closer, their sinister laughter becoming increasingly audible.
"Kid, let's see where you can run now!" Chen Ba's arrogant voice echoed through the forest.
Zhuang Yu glanced at Chen Ba, who was getting closer and closer, and then at the indestructible barrier in front of him, feeling extremely anxious.
Is it really going to all come to naught like this?
Suddenly, a thought struck him... Perhaps there was a way there.
As soon as Zhuang Yu had a thought, the scenery before him changed abruptly.
He found himself once again in that familiar mist, enveloped by the tranquil atmosphere unique to this mysterious space.
Now is not the time to enjoy peace and quiet!
He must find a way to break the restriction as soon as possible.
Mental energy surged forth like a tide, rapidly sweeping through the space.
Elixirs, magical artifacts, cultivation techniques...
There was a dazzling array of rare and precious items, but none of them were what he needed at that moment.
Time ticked by, and Chen Ba's sinister laughter seemed to echo in his ears, urging him to speed up.
Finally, among a pile of dusty scrolls, he found a yellowed ancient book.
On the cover, a few ancient characters shimmered with a faint light—"Comprehensive Explanation of Prohibitions".
That's it!
Zhuang Yu grabbed the ancient book and eagerly began to read it.
The book contained methods for breaking various restrictions, one of which was similar to the pale blue restriction in front of him.
Following the instructions in the book, Zhuang Yu concentrated his mind and formed a hand seal.
Spiritual energy flowed from his fingertips, outlining profound runes.
These runes, like fireflies, slowly drifted toward the pale blue barrier.
Meanwhile, outside the forbidden zone, Chen Ba and Li Si were already closing in.
Seeing that Zhuang Yu had his back to them and seemed to be doing something strange, Chen Ba couldn't help but sneer: "Playing tricks! Li Si, get him!"
Li Si took a step forward timidly, just about to make a move, when suddenly the pale blue barrier shone brightly, and a powerful energy wave spread outwards.
"Ah!" Li Si screamed as he was blasted away by the force and crashed heavily to the ground.
The other cultivators who had rushed over also stopped in their tracks, looking at Zhuang Yu and the shimmering barrier with surprise and uncertainty.
They had planned to launch a sneak attack while Zhuang Yu was breaking the restriction, but they didn't expect the restriction to be so powerful that they couldn't even get close.
Chen Ba was also startled by this sudden turn of events, but he quickly recovered and roared, "What are you all standing there for! Attack together! I don't believe this kid can stop so many of us!"
However, before they could get close, the light on the barrier flashed again, and an even more powerful force erupted, blasting all the surrounding cultivators away.
Chen Ba was also shaken by this force, causing his blood to surge and his face to turn deathly pale.
The light from the barrier gradually dimmed, and Zhuang Yu slowly opened his eyes, a slight smile appearing on his lips.
Become!
“Brother Zhuang Yu…” Wang Yao watched him nervously from the side, her hands clenched into fists, her nails digging deep into her palms…
Wang Yao watched Zhuang Yu nervously from the side, her hands clenched into fists.
Zhuang Yu turned around and glanced at her, giving her a confident smile.
Wang Yao felt somewhat relieved, believing that Zhuang Yu would definitely succeed.
The pale blue light of the barrier grew dimmer, like a candle flickering in the wind, as if it would be extinguished completely at any moment.
Just then, a ripple suddenly appeared on the surface of the barrier, and then dozens of black shadows shot out from it, emitting sharp screechs, and rushed straight at Zhuang Yu!
These forbidden creatures resembled wolves, but had bat-like fleshy wings and emitted a nauseating stench.
Their eyes gleamed with an eerie green light, and their sharp claws flashed with a cold light; they looked like menacing creatures.
Zhuang Yu's eyes narrowed, and he dared not be negligent.
The "Comprehensive Guide to Restrictions," which I learned in the mysterious space, not only records the methods to break restrictions, but also the weaknesses of various restricted creatures.
These wolf-like creatures are incredibly fast and have fierce attacks, but they are vulnerable to fire attacks.
With a thought, Zhuang Yu conjured a crimson longsword out of thin air in his hand. It was the Crimson Flame Sword, a fire-attribute magic weapon he had obtained in the mysterious space.
With a flick of his wrist, the Crimson Flame Sword sliced through the air, unleashing a scorching sword aura that hurtled straight towards the forbidden creature.
With a "whoosh," the sword energy struck the head of a forbidden creature precisely. The creature let out a shrill scream and instantly turned to ashes.
Seeing this, the remaining forbidden creatures pounced on Zhuang Yu even more frantically.
Despite the danger, Zhuang Yu remained calm and moved with lightning speed. The Crimson Flame Sword in his hand transformed into streaks of crimson light, slaying one forbidden creature after another.
However, these forbidden creatures were numerous and fearless, and Zhuang Yu gradually developed some wounds.
Chen Ba hid in the distance, watching Zhuang Yu fight fiercely with the forbidden creature, a sinister glint in his eyes.
He originally planned to wait for Zhuang Yu to break the restriction so he could reap the benefits, but he never expected such a change to occur within the restriction.
However, this is also good. Let these forbidden creatures consume Zhuang Yu's spiritual power. When he is exhausted, it will be the best time for me to make my move!
During the fierce battle, Zhuang Yu felt his spiritual energy being rapidly depleted.
This won't do; we must finish this quickly!
He took a deep breath, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.
Suddenly, he plunged the Crimson Flame Sword into the ground, rapidly forming hand seals while chanting incantations.
"What is he doing?" Chen Ba wondered, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.
Just then, Zhuang Yu suddenly opened his eyes and shouted, "Crimson Flame Burns the Heavens!" A terrifying flame erupted from the Crimson Flame Sword, instantly engulfing all the surrounding restricted creatures...
However, at the heart of the flames, an even more eerie figure slowly emerged.
“What is this…” Wang Yao murmured to herself, her face pale.
Zhuang Yu's gaze sharpened as he stared at the figure, and he slowly said, "It seems the real test is only just beginning..." He reached into his robes...
Zhuang Yu took out a seemingly ordinary jade pendant from his pocket. The jade pendant felt warm to the touch and emitted a faint, clear light.
He channeled his spiritual energy into the jade pendant, which shone brightly and instantly transformed into a massive light screen that enveloped him and Wang Yao.
The eerie figure at the center of the flames let out a shriek and lunged at the light barrier, only to be bounced back as if it had crashed into an invisible wall.
"What kind of magic weapon is this?" Chen Ba stared in disbelief from afar. He had thought that Zhuang Yu had run out of tricks, but he did not expect him to take out such a powerful magic weapon.
The other cultivators around were also stunned by this sudden turn of events, and they all speculated about Zhuang Yu's origins.
It's simply unbelievable that a cultivator at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage could possess so many abilities.
Protected by the light barrier formed by the jade pendant, Zhuang Yu was safe and sound.
The flames gradually died down, and the forbidden creatures were all reduced to ashes.
The pale blue barrier completely disappeared, revealing the path leading to the ancient treasure.
"Let's go!" Zhuang Yu grabbed Wang Yao and ran towards the direction of the ancient treasure.
Seeing this, Chen Ba's face darkened; he knew he had missed the best opportunity.
This kid has endless tricks up his sleeve; I'm no match for him at all.
Thinking of this, a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes, and he quietly left.
Zhuang Yu and Wang Yao traveled without any obstacles and finally arrived in front of the ancient treasure.
The ancient treasure emitted a dazzling light, and the surrounding energy surged like a raging storm, making one's heart tremble.
"The energy fluctuations of this ancient treasure are even more powerful than I imagined," Zhuang Yu murmured to himself, looking at the ancient treasure in front of him.
Wang Yao also felt the immense pressure from the ancient treasure. She gripped Zhuang Yu's hand tightly, remaining silent.
Suddenly, the space around the ancient treasure began to distort, and a huge vortex appeared above it, emanating a suffocating aura.
"Oh no!" Zhuang Yu's expression changed. "This is..."
He reached into his robes, pulled out a black talisman, and said with a determined look in his eyes, "It seems I'll have to borrow the power of space again!"
