Yun Xi asked softly, with a mysterious light flashing in her eyes. Her beautiful face was illuminated by the light and became even more charming, making people fall for her.

Li Mingyang took a deep breath, and a firm belief surged in his heart. He clenched his fists tightly, looked at Yun Xi firmly, and nodded solemnly: "I'm ready."

Yun Xi smiled slightly, as gentle as a spring breeze. She waved her hand gently, and the entrance of the cave slowly opened, revealing a deep passage. The passage was filled with a faint spiritual energy, as if it led to another world.

Li Mingyang stepped into the passage, his heart full of anticipation and nervousness. As he went deeper, the space inside the cave gradually appeared before his eyes, which was much wider than he had imagined. The surrounding stone walls were inlaid with various strange minerals, emitting soft light, illuminating the entire cave. These minerals seemed to contain some mysterious power, which made people feel extremely shocked.

They walked through a long passage and finally came to a spacious hall. In the center of the hall stood a stone table with an ancient book on it. Surrounding the stone table were several stone chairs, each with a different rune engraved on it, looking extremely solemn.

"This is the inheritance left by that great monk, but before that, you must pass a test." Yun Xi's voice echoed in the cave, and it was particularly clear. Her eyes fell on Li Mingyang, revealing a hint of expectation and trust.

Li Mingyang nodded to show his understanding. Yun Xi waved her hand gently, and the scroll on the stone table suddenly flew up, turning into a ray of light, swirling around Li Mingyang. He felt a powerful force surging into his body, as if testing his aptitude and character. This force was like a surging tide, impacting his meridians and dantian, causing him to feel a sharp pain, but he gritted his teeth and endured it silently.

At this moment, the ground of the cave suddenly shook, and a hidden door on the stone wall slowly opened, revealing an even deeper cave. Li Mingyang's heart tightened, wondering what kind of test was waiting for him inside. He stared at the door nervously, holding the hilt of the sword tightly, ready to fight at any time.

"Go in, there are things you can't imagine there." Yun Xi's voice sounded again, with a hint of mysterious smile. Her eyes revealed her expectation and trust in Li Mingyang, as if she believed that he could handle the next challenge.

Li Mingyang took a deep breath and walked towards the door firmly. The cave behind the door was filled with a strong spiritual energy. Various strange patterns were carved on the surrounding walls, as if recording ancient stories. These patterns were lifelike, making people want to explore the meaning behind them.

In the center of the cave, there was a sword that exuded a powerful aura. The sword was shining with cold light, so sharp that people dared not look directly at it. Li Mingyang felt the power of this sword. It seemed to contain endless power, waiting for someone to awaken it.

"This is the test I give you. If you can pick up this sword, you have passed my test." Yun Xi's voice echoed in the cave, full of majesty.

Li Mingyang looked at the sword, and a strong desire surged in his heart. He knew that this sword would be an important helper in his future. But he also knew that it was not an easy task to pick up this sword.

He took a deep breath and walked closer to the sword. With every step, he could feel the strong aura coming towards him, which almost made him unable to breathe. But he did not retreat, but instead quickened his pace and finally arrived in front of the sword.

He reached out his hand, grabbed the hilt of the sword, and lifted it up with all his strength. However, the sword did not move at all, as if it was restrained by an invisible force. Li Mingyang used all his strength to try to pull the sword out, but the sword was still firmly stuck in the ground.

Sweat began to form on his forehead and his breathing became rapid. He realized that it would take more strength and skill to pick up the sword. He adjusted his posture and exerted force again. This time, he felt the sword move slightly, but he still couldn't pull it out.

Li Mingyang gritted his teeth and continued to try. He kept adjusting his posture and the way he exerted force, and gradually mastered some techniques. Finally, after a full-strength burst, the sword made a crisp sound and was pulled out of the ground.

Li Mingyang excitedly grasped the sword, feeling the powerful force coming from the sword. He knew that he had passed Yun Xi's test and obtained this precious sword.

"Congratulations, you have passed my test. This sword is called 'Tianshu', a magical weapon from ancient times with unparalleled power. I hope you can use it to protect the righteous path and slay demons." Yun Xi's voice rang out in the cave, full of relief and blessings.

Li Mingyang looked at Yun Xi with gratitude, then turned and walked out of the cave. He held the "Tianshu" sword in his hand, and his heart was full of confidence and determination. He knew that there were more challenges waiting for him ahead, but he was not afraid, because he had the "Tianshu" sword in his hand and Yun Xi's support and guidance.

He walked deeper into the cave, each step full of anticipation and curiosity. Suddenly, a small altar appeared in front of him, exuding a mysterious atmosphere. On the altar was a crystal, like a bright star, attracting his attention. There seemed to be a vague figure sealed in the crystal, which made him wonder.

Li Mingyang's heart moved, and he slowly walked forward to observe the crystal carefully. He found that the surface of the crystal was as smooth as a mirror, but the inside was shining with a strange light, which made people want to explore the secret. Just as he was concentrating on observing, a strong light suddenly came out from the crystal, instantly enveloping him.

This light was like a burning flame, hot and dazzling. Li Mingyang felt a powerful force surge into his body, as if awakening some memory deep in his heart. This feeling was both familiar and strange, and made him fall into deep thought.

"Welcome, Li Mingyang." An old and majestic voice echoed in the cave, like a clear spring flowing through his heart. "I am the guardian of Lingfeng Valley and the incarnation of that great monk. The 'Heart of Chaos' you carry has an indissoluble bond with me."

Li Mingyang was shocked. He never expected to meet such a being here. The identity and purpose of this guardian confused him, but also aroused his curiosity. He listened to the guardian's words quietly, trying to understand the deep meaning.

The guardian continued, "The 'Heart of Chaos' is not just a simple treasure. It contains the power of chaos and can unlock the potential deep within you. However, to truly unleash its power, you need to practice and explore continuously. Only when you are strong enough can you fully master its power. "But at the same time, it is also a double-edged sword. If it is not used properly, it will bring disaster."

Li Mingyang lowered his head in deep thought, his eyes flashing with determination. He knew the importance and danger of the "Heart of Chaos", but he was determined to protect this mysterious treasure.

"I understand. I will use the 'Heart of Chaos' with caution and will never let it fall into the hands of evil people." Li Mingyang replied solemnly.

The guardian smiled with satisfaction and nodded. "Very good, you have a strong will and outstanding talent. I will grant you a special inheritance to help you better control the 'Heart of Chaos'."

Before he finished speaking, the guardian's figure instantly turned into a bright light and rushed into Li Mingyang's body like a meteor. Li Mingyang felt a powerful force surging into his body, as if the whole world had opened a new chapter in front of him.

"From now on, you will become one of the guardians of Lingfeng Valley. But you still need to find your companion Su Wan and complete your mission." The guardian's voice echoed in Li Mingyang's mind.

Li Mingyang slowly opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with excitement and confidence. He felt the huge improvement in his own strength, and an unprecedented feeling surged in his heart. He took a deep breath, turned around and resolutely walked out of the cave and returned to Yun Xi's side.

"Thank you Miss Yunxi, I have gained something." Li Mingyang said gratefully.

Yun Xi smiled and said, "You're welcome. This is what you deserve. In that case, let's set off. But before that, you need to know some secrets about Lingfeng Valley."

Li Mingyang nodded, his heart full of expectations for the future. He knew that this journey had just begun, and there were more unknowns waiting for him to explore.

The two of them left the cave together and continued to go deeper into Lingfeng Valley. As they continued to move forward, the surrounding environment became more and more dangerous. There was a strange atmosphere in the mountains and forests, and the occasional strange sounds made people shudder.

Just as they were passing through a dense forest, suddenly, a deafening buzzing sound came from the sky. Li Mingyang's heart tightened and he subconsciously looked up.

Thousands of giant killer bees swarmed in from all directions, densely packed and covering the sky. These killer bees were huge, and the sound of their wings flapping was frightening. They were like a black whirlwind, sweeping in.

Li Mingyang's face suddenly changed, and he quickly pulled Yun Xi back. Facing such a large number of fierce enemies, they had to be careful.

"Oh no, it's a giant killer bee!" Yun Xi's face changed drastically, and her voice trembled a little. She had heard from her elders about the power of this giant killer bee, and knew that once they launched an attack, they would not stop until the death, and they were also highly poisonous. If you were stung, the consequences would be disastrous. Thinking of this, Yun Xi hurriedly said: "These killer bees are extremely ferocious, we must leave here as soon as possible!"

Hearing this, Li Mingyang's heart tightened. He quickly drew the long sword from his waist, looked around vigilantly, and prepared for battle. However, when he saw the overwhelming and dense killer bees, he couldn't help but feel a little desperate. There were too many of these killer bees, and it was impossible to kill them one by one. Their wings flapped in the air, making a deafening sound, as if they wanted to swallow everything.

At this moment, a killer bee rushed towards Li Mingyang. He subconsciously swung his sword and cut it to the ground. But then, more killer bees swarmed up. He waved his sword and tried to resist these fierce enemies. At the same time, Yun Xi was not idle either. She used her Qinggong skills to constantly dodge the attacks of the killer bees, and from time to time she used her short sword to kill a few killer bees that approached.

Seeing the number of killer bees increasing, Li Mingyang and Yun Xi realized that this was not a solution. They had to find a way to get rid of these killer bees. So, Yun Xi shouted loudly: "Quick, follow me!" After that, she took Li Mingyang's hand and ran quickly into the depths of the valley.

Yun Xi was obviously very familiar with the terrain here. She led Li Mingyang through the dense forest, trying to avoid the attack range of the killer bees. Although they occasionally encountered some obstacles, they were always able to cleverly bypass them. While running, Li Mingyang found that he had gradually adapted to this tense atmosphere, and his swordsmanship became more proficient.

However, although they had tried their best to avoid the pursuit of killer bees, there were still several giant killer bees following closely behind them. These killer bees seemed to be determined not to give up until they achieved their goal, and they kept attacking them. Li Mingyang swung his sword to kill several killer bees, but more swarms were still approaching. He felt more and more pressure and was secretly anxious.

"Yun Xi, we can't go on like this. We must find a place to hide temporarily!" Li Mingyang shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the forest, hoping that Yun Xi could hear it.

"I know there's an underground cave ahead where we can take shelter for a while." Yun Xi responded while running hard. Her face was covered in sweat, and her eyes were firm and calm.

The two ran forward with all their might and finally arrived at the underground cave that Yun Xi mentioned. The entrance of the cave was hidden in a dense bush and was almost unnoticeable if not carefully searched. Yun Xi pushed aside the bushes without hesitation and pulled Li Mingyang into the cave.
