Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

After becoming a respected figure, Lin Ze did not slack off. He knew that there were still many unknown dangers lurking in the dark.

One day, while exploring an ancient ruin, he discovered a pattern similar to the runes on his artifact. Going deeper into it, he triggered a mysterious ban.

A flash of light passed by, and Lin Ze and Qilin were transported to a strange space. It was filled with crystals emitting dim light, and in the center was a huge core-like object suspended.

Suddenly, a voice sounded: "My destined one, if you want to gain stronger power, you need to use a divine weapon to fuse this thing." Lin Ze hesitated for a moment, thinking about the hardships he had gone through and the mission he shouldered, he decided to take a risk.

When the artifact approached the core object, the two shone brightly and their lights blended together.

Lin Ze felt an unprecedented force surging into his body, and his meridians continued to widen and strengthen.

The Qilin also evolved, becoming larger and more powerful. After the fusion was completed, they were teleported back to the entrance of the ruins.

Lin Ze walked out of the ruins. At this time, he was already standing on the pinnacle of this continent. He decided to use this power to explore the deeper mysteries of the world, and Qilin will always accompany him on this endless journey.

Lin Ze led Qilin to the depths of the continent. When they reached a misty forest, the surrounding atmosphere became strange.

The Qilin hummed in a low voice in alarm, and Lin Ze held the magic weapon tightly, cautiously on guard. Suddenly, a group of ghostly creatures rushed out of the fog at an extremely fast speed, and rushed straight towards Lin Ze and the others.

Lin Ze held the artifact that emitted a mysterious light and swung it vigorously. A powerful and terrifying force suddenly erupted. The force was like a surging torrent, slamming into the group of ghosts in front of him with overwhelming force. In an instant, accompanied by a few shrill screams, several ghosts were blown away like kites with broken strings. However, what was shocking was that these ghosts were like a tide that continuously emerged from the dark abyss. Just as one wave was repelled, a new wave rushed in like a hungry wolf.

Facing such a large number of difficult ghosts, even the powerful Lin Ze couldn't help but feel a bit difficult. Just as he was frowning and thinking hard about how to deal with it, he suddenly felt the newly merged power in his body begin to stir uncontrollably. This power was like a beast that had been trapped for a long time, eager to break free and release all its power.

Lin Ze's heart moved, and he decided to take a risk to guide this powerful force. He quickly gathered his mind, and quickly formed complex and mysterious hand seals with his hands, while muttering something in his mouth, chanting an obscure spell in a low voice. As he moved and chanted the spell, the originally restless power gradually became docile, and began to gather in his palm according to his will.

Finally, when all the strength was gathered, Lin Ze suddenly pushed his hands forward. Suddenly, an extremely dazzling and sun-like blazing light burst out from the center of his body and spread to the surroundings at an astonishing speed. All the ghosts illuminated by this light let out bursts of miserable howls, and then their bodies quickly melted and disintegrated like ice and snow encountering the scorching sun, and finally turned into wisps of black smoke and dissipated without a trace.

After successfully resolving the crisis, Lin Ze breathed a sigh of relief. After a short rest, he took firm steps again and continued along the winding road. After walking for an unknown period of time, a desolate and dilapidated scene gradually came into his sight - it turned out that they had arrived in front of the ruins of an ancient city.

This once glorious city has now become a pile of ruins, filled with decay and decay. However, it was in this seemingly lifeless ruin that Lin Ze unexpectedly discovered many precious clues about the origin of this world. The ancient stone tablets hidden in the corners of the ruins, the unclear marks on the walls, and the mysterious objects scattered on the ground seemed to be silently telling the unknown past of this world.

Looking at these mysterious clues in front of him, Lin Ze's heart was filled with a strong sense of anticipation. He knew that these clues would probably lead him to a deeper and more mysterious realm, thus revealing the deepest mysteries of this world. Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and resolutely turned around and headed towards the next destination.

Lin Ze went forward, and according to the clues he had obtained before, he came to a forgotten valley. The valley was shrouded in mist, and there was a mysterious power. Qilin was the first to step into the valley, and Lin Ze followed closely behind.

Soon after entering the valley, he saw an ancient stone gate. The stone gate was engraved with strange symbols, which were somewhat similar to the runes he had seen in the ruins.

Lin Ze took a deep breath and stepped forward cautiously, his eyes fixed on the mysterious stone door. He slowly approached the stone door, his heartbeat speeding up involuntarily, as if he could hear the sound of his heart beating violently in his chest. When he was only a few feet away from the stone door, he stopped and began to carefully observe the stone door in front of him.

The stone door was tall and heavy, with dense and intricate patterns and patterns carved on its surface, looking ancient and mysterious. Lin Ze reached out and gently touched the patterns, feeling the powerful power they contained. Then, he took out the treasure that was regarded as a divine artifact from his arms and held it tightly in his hand.

Lin Ze concentrated his mind and mobilized the spiritual power in his body to inject it into the artifact. The artifact immediately emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the dark space around it. He slowly extended the artifact towards the stone door. When the two were about to touch, a strange energy wave came from the stone door. Then, the stone door began to move slowly, accompanied by a low roar, and gradually opened to both sides.

As the stone door opened, a soft light shone through the crack of the door and onto Lin Ze's face. He subconsciously squinted his eyes to adapt to the sudden light. When he opened his eyes again, he found that shocking pictures appeared in the light.

The first thing that comes into view is the scene at the beginning of the world: chaos just opened up, the sky and the earth were not yet separated, and light and darkness gradually appeared in the void. Then, various elements blended and collided with each other, forming mountains, rivers, lakes, plants, birds, animals and other things in the world. And at the center of all this, there is a creature that has never been seen before, casting magical spells and creating the rules for the operation of the world.

Lin Ze was completely attracted by the scene in front of him, and he didn't want to take his eyes away for a moment. However, just as he was immersed in this wonderful scene of creation, the picture suddenly changed, and a terrible disaster image appeared in front of him. The sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, the earth was shaking violently, and the mountains collapsed and the ground cracked. A powerful and evil black force swept in like a tide, turning everything it passed into ruins.
