The rebirth of the medical warrior, sweeping across the ages

Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong stepped into the mysterious and majestic palace, and every step seemed to be treading on the dust of history, heavy and solemn. Inside the palace, the light was dim, with only a few ancient oil lamps swaying, adding a sense of mystery to this deep space.

They moved forward cautiously, and from time to time they heard a low echo, as if the palace was telling some ancient secrets. Suddenly, Ding Zhihua felt the ground beneath his feet tremble slightly, and he immediately pulled Yang Aihong, and the two of them pressed against the wall, observing their surroundings vigilantly.

In the center of the palace, a huge stone platform slowly rose up, and on the stone platform was placed an ancient jade box. The surface of the jade box emitted a faint light, which seemed to attract their attention.

"The Eternal Divine Needle... could it be in that jade box?" Yang Aihong said in a low voice, her voice full of anticipation and nervousness.

Ding Zhihua nodded, took a deep breath, and walked towards the stone platform. However, just as he was about to touch the jade box, a powerful energy burst out from the jade box, forming a transparent barrier that blocked them out.

"Is this... a treasure protection formation?" Ding Zhihua frowned. He tried to use his internal force to break the barrier, but found that his internal force seemed to be completely absorbed here and could not exert its due power.

At this moment, several figures suddenly appeared around the palace. These people were dressed in black and wore black masks, revealing only a pair of cold eyes. They held long swords and approached Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong step by step.

"Who are you? Why are you trying to stop us?" Yang Aihong shouted sternly.

"Hmph, the Eternal Divine Needle is the greatest treasure in the world, how could it fall into your hands?" A man in black said coldly.

Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong looked at each other, knowing that these people were also here for the "Eternal Divine Needle". They must find a way to crack the treasure protection array as soon as possible, otherwise once it falls into the hands of these men in black, the consequences will be disastrous.

Just when the two were in trouble, the mysterious voice sounded again: "Young man, you have come to the core of Xingyuan Secret Realm. There are endless powers and secrets hidden here, but only the truly strong can unveil it."

Ding Zhihua's mind moved, and he suddenly remembered that he had seen a record of the treasure protection array in an ancient book. He quickly searched for relevant information in his mind, trying to find a way to crack it.

"Aihong, please step back a little. I will try to break this formation." Ding Zhihua said in a low voice.

Yang Aihong nodded, stepped aside, and watched the men in black warily. Ding Zhihua closed his eyes and began to mobilize his internal energy. According to the records in the ancient books, he condensed his internal energy into a stream and slowly injected it into the treasure protection formation.

As time went on, the treasure protection formation began to emit a buzzing sound, as if responding to Ding Zhihua's internal strength. Finally, after a loud bang, the treasure protection formation disappeared without a trace, revealing the jade box inside.

Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. They quickly stepped forward and hugged the jade box tightly in their arms. However, at this moment, the men in black attacked again. They held long swords and slashed at the two men.

Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong stood back to back, relying on their profound cultivation and tacit cooperation to resist the attacks of the men in black again and again. However, the men in black were numerous and strong, and the two gradually fell into a bitter battle.

At this moment, a strong energy fluctuation suddenly came from the depths of the palace. Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong's hearts moved, and they turned and looked into the depths of the palace at the same time. They saw a huge black hole appeared there, emitting dazzling light, as if some powerful force was about to surge out of it.

"What...is that?" Yang Aihong exclaimed.

Ding Zhihua frowned, and he felt an unprecedented sense of oppression. He knew that there must be more shocking secrets hidden in this black hole. But now they must first deal with the man in black in front of them, otherwise once the power in the black hole erupts, the consequences will be disastrous.

Just as the two were about to fight the men in black again, a deafening roar suddenly came from the black hole. Then, a huge figure rushed out of the black hole and directly knocked the men in black out.

Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong looked at the figure in surprise. They saw that it was several feet tall and radiated golden light. Its face was blurry, but its eyes were bright and seemed to see through everything.

"Is this... the guardian of the Xingyuan Secret Realm?" Ding Zhihua guessed.

The figure did not answer their questions, but slowly walked towards the jade box. It stretched out a huge hand and gently held up the jade box. Then, it turned to look at Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong, and said in a low voice: "Young people, you have passed the test. Now, I will pass on the inheritance of the Eternal Divine Needle to you."

After that, it handed the jade box to Ding Zhihua. Ding Zhihua carefully took the jade box, his heart filled with awe and excitement. He knew that the jade box not only contained the secret of the Eternal Divine Needle, but also carried the inheritance and hope of an ancient civilization.

However, at this moment, a roar was heard again from the black hole. The figure's face changed, and he turned to look at the black hole, his voice full of vigilance and worry: "Someone has touched the forbidden power, and the Xingyuan Secret Realm is about to collapse. You must leave here as soon as possible!"

Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong looked at each other, knowing that time was running out. Holding the jade box, they turned and ran out of the palace. However, just as they were about to leave the palace, a powerful energy burst out from the black hole and directly swallowed up the entire palace.

"Hurry! We must leave as soon as possible!" Ding Zhihua shouted loudly.

Yang Aihong nodded, and she followed closely behind Ding Zhihua, and the two ran all the way. But the impact of the energy was too strong, and they felt as if their bodies were about to be torn apart.

At this moment, the figure appeared in front of them again. It stretched out a huge hand and wrapped the two of them in it. Then, it took the two of them up into the sky and rushed directly out of the Xingyuan Secret Realm that was about to collapse.

When the two opened their eyes again, they had returned to the real world. They found themselves standing on a barren mountain, surrounded by endless starry sky and distant stars.

"We... escaped?" Yang Aihong asked in disbelief.

Ding Zhihua nodded, holding the jade box tightly in his hand, his heart full of emotion and relief. He knew that although this trip to the Xingyuan Secret Realm was full of dangers and challenges, it also brought them huge gains.

However, just as the two were about to leave the mountain, they suddenly discovered a dark shadow approaching rapidly from a distance. The shadow was moving very fast, like a bolt of lightning streaking across the sky. Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong were startled, and they turned their heads to look at the shadow at the same time.

"Who... is that?" Yang Aihong exclaimed.

Ding Zhihua frowned, he felt a strong hostility coming from the shadow. He knew that the shadow must be coming for the jade box in their hands.

"Let's go!" Ding Zhihua said in a low voice.

The two men ran away again, but the black shadow kept chasing them.

Ding Zhihua and Yang Aihong ran wildly on the barren mountain, with the dark shadow following them like an inescapable nightmare. Their heartbeats and footsteps intertwined, echoing in the silent starry night.

"We must find a place to hide first, otherwise running like this is not a solution." Yang Aihong said breathlessly, her face already covered in sweat.

Ding Zhihua nodded, and he looked around and found a huge rock group not far ahead. He changed direction immediately and ran towards the rock group with Yang Aihong.

The two quickly hid in a crevice of the rocks, and Ding Zhihua carefully poked his head out to observe the movements of the shadow. The shadow seemed to become cautious after approaching the rocks, slowing down and starting to shuttle through the rocks, looking for the two people.

"It seems that it is very smart and knows that we will find a place to hide." Ding Zhihua said in a low voice.

"What should we do? We can't hide here forever, right?" Yang Aihong asked anxiously.

Ding Zhihua pondered for a moment, then said, "We have to find a way to lure it away. So, you stay here and guard the jade box, and I'll go and lure it away."

"No! It's too dangerous! I'll go and lure it away, you stay here!" Yang Aihong said firmly.

Ding Zhihua shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm sure. Besides, I'm faster than you, so I have a better chance of escaping."

Yang Aihong wanted to say something, but Ding Zhihua had already made his decision. He took a deep breath, then rushed out of the crevice and ran towards the shadow.

The shadow noticed Ding Zhihua's movements and immediately chased after him. With his extraordinary agility, Ding Zhihua shuttled through the rocks and tried to keep a certain distance from the shadow. He knew that he could not really fight with the shadow, and could only rely on his agility to delay time.

Yang Aihong, who stayed in the crevice of the rock, held the jade box nervously, praying that Ding Zhihua would return safely. At the same time, she was also prepared to deal with emergencies at any time.

Time passed in a tense atmosphere. After an unknown amount of time, Ding Zhihua finally returned to the crevice. He sat on the ground panting, with a tired but relieved smile on his face.

"You're back! Are you okay?" Yang Aihong asked with concern.

Ding Zhihua shook his head and said, "I'm fine. But that guy was really powerful. I was almost caught up by him."

"Then what should we do next?" Yang Aihong asked.

Ding Zhihua pondered for a moment, then said, "We have to leave this place as soon as possible. Although I have temporarily lured that guy away, he will definitely come back again. In addition, the collapse of Xingyuan Secret Realm has also caused quite a stir, and there may be more dangers approaching."

Yang Aihong nodded, agreeing with Ding Zhihua's opinion. After a short rest, the two carefully left the rock group and continued to move forward.

In the days that followed, the two experienced countless hardships and dangers. With their firm belief and extraordinary strength, they overcame danger time and time again. The inheritance and hope they received from the Xingyuan Secret Realm also made them more determined to follow their own path.

Finally, they successfully brought the inheritance of the Eternal Divine Needle back to the real world. This inheritance not only gave them powerful strength, but also made them realize the true meaning of life and the significance of practice. They also carried forward this inheritance and became a generation of masters in the martial arts world...
