Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

Lin Ze and the woman just breathed a sigh of relief when they heard a sneer behind them. Looking back, they saw another group of people who had come to search for treasure together but were trapped by a trap on the road. The leader said viciously, "You are lucky, but we can't let you take this treasure away like this."

Lin Ze protected the woman behind him and said in a cold voice: "We got it by our own ability." But the man did not listen and ordered his men to attack.

Lin Ze tightly grasped the mysterious book he had just obtained, and stared intently at the ancient and obscure words and patterns on it. Suddenly, a wonderful inspiration came to his mind, like a flash of lightning that broke through the night sky. He saw the long sword in his hand dancing, and between the flashes of the sword light, he actually evolved a new set of moves! In an instant, the entire space was shrouded in the sharp sword shadows, which was dazzling.

At the same time, the woman standing beside her was not to be outdone. She opened her red lips and chanted a spell, and a series of colorful spells bloomed like fireworks. Flames, frost, and lightning intertwined together, forming a beautiful yet lethal picture.

However, despite their extraordinary strength, they gradually became overwhelmed by the large number of well-trained enemies. The enemies came like a tide, and their offensive became more and more fierce, gradually putting Lin Ze and the woman in a passive situation.

At this critical moment, Lin Ze suddenly remembered that the book in his hand seemed to hide more secrets. He quickly turned the pages and carefully searched for the key clues that could turn the tide of the battle. Sure enough, hard work pays off. In the interlayer of the book, he was pleasantly surprised to find a complex array diagram that he had never seen before!

Lin Ze was excited and quickly called out to the woman beside him. The woman immediately understood his intention and reached a tacit understanding the moment their eyes met. Without any hesitation, they acted quickly and skillfully arranged this mysterious formation according to the instructions in the formation diagram.

As the last formation stone fell, the entire formation suddenly burst into dazzling light, like a golden sun rising. Powerful energy fluctuations spread out from the formation to the surroundings, trapping all the vicious enemies in the blink of an eye.

The enemies trapped in the formation were terrified. They struggled desperately to escape, but no matter how hard they tried, it was in vain. The power of the formation was as indestructible as a copper wall and iron wall. No matter how hard these enemies tried, they could not break through.

Seeing no hope of escape, the mob finally gave up resistance and knelt down to beg for mercy. Lin Ze looked at them coldly, with a flash of contempt in his eyes. He removed the formation and warned them sternly: "I will spare your lives today, but if you dare to do anything unjust in the future, you will be killed without a burial place!" After that, he turned around and set off on the journey home with the woman.

Along the way, Lin Ze and the woman walked side by side, excitedly exchanging their thrilling experiences and their own feelings. Through this joint fight against the enemy, they got to know each other better and their feelings became even deeper.

Lin Ze knew that from now on, as long as he had this smart and brave woman by his side, he would not feel the slightest fear no matter how rough the road ahead was or how powerful the enemy was. Because their legendary adventure had just begun, there were still countless unknown challenges waiting for them to conquer.

As they walked, the sky suddenly darkened and dark clouds covered the sky. Lin Ze became alert, and a sense of foreboding came over him. The woman also clenched her fists, ready to deal with any emergency. At this time, a huge black bird swooped down from the clouds, its wings spread out to a width of several feet. Lin Ze recognized that this was the descendant of the divine beast that guarded the treasure, and it must have been attracted by the noise of the battle just now.

The moment Lin Ze and the woman's eyes met, it was as if time had frozen. Then, the two of them attacked at the same time in tacit understanding, and a thrilling battle began. Lin Ze's figure flashed, and the long sword in his hand danced like flying, performing the exquisite sword moves he had just created. Each sword contained his unique understanding of the sword, and the sword energy crisscrossed and dazzled.

At the same time, the woman was not to be outdone. She formed seals with her hands, muttered something, and colorful spells shot out from her fingertips one after another. These spells turned into blazing flames, condensed into cold frost, or transformed into howling winds, with magnificent momentum and amazing power.

However, the bird flew through the air at an unimaginable speed, deftly avoiding the attacks of Lin Ze and the woman. It was as fast as a flash of lightning, sometimes swooping down, sometimes circling up, making it difficult to predict.

At this moment, the bird saw the opportunity and suddenly accelerated towards Lin Ze. Lin Ze was unable to dodge and was about to be hit hard by the bird. At the critical moment, the woman stepped forward without hesitation. She shouted and used all her strength to temporarily resist the bird's swoop with a powerful spell.

Taking advantage of this gap, Lin Ze quickly stepped back and re-examined the book in his hand. Suddenly, his eyes fell on one of the pages, which clearly recorded the key information about the weakness of the bird! It turned out that on the left side of the bird's abdomen, there was a place that emitted a faint blue light, which was its fatal weakness.

Lin Ze was overjoyed. He took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and shouted, "Prepare to die!" Then he exerted force on his feet and rushed towards the bird like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the left side of the bird's abdomen. Lin Ze used all his strength and stabbed the long sword in his hand at the part emitting blue light.

There was a dull "puff" sound, and the long sword pierced Fei Niao's vital point accurately. Fei Niao immediately let out a sharp whine, and after its huge body shook a few times, it finally fell to the ground powerlessly.

Seeing that the bird was finally defeated, Lin Ze and the woman breathed a sigh of relief. They smiled at each other exhausted, their eyes full of gratitude for surviving the catastrophe. After a short rest, the two continued their journey home hand in hand. Although the road ahead is still full of unknown dangers and difficulties, as long as they accompany each other, they believe that no difficulties can stop them from moving forward.

The two walked forward for a while and passed by a quiet forest. Just as Lin Ze was about to warn them to be careful, a faint mist had spread around them. There were faint figures swaying in the mist. When the mist dissipated, a group of strange people in strange costumes appeared in front of them. These people held strange weapons and had unfriendly eyes.
