Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

In their new journey, Lin Ze and Su Yu heard that there was a powerful treasure hidden in an ancient relic that could greatly enhance the strength of practitioners.

The two were very excited and decided to go explore.

When they entered the ruins, they found that it was full of traps and dangers.

Not long after walking, the ground suddenly cracked and countless spikes emerged from the ground.

They hurriedly used their physical skills to dodge, but they triggered the poison arrow traps around them.

After finally dodging the poison arrow, a huge stone door appeared in front of him. It was engraved with mysterious runes and exuded a strange aura.

Just as they were concentrating on studying how to open the mysterious stone door, suddenly, a gloomy atmosphere came from all directions. Lin Ze and Su Yu looked around vigilantly, only to see a group of black shadows approaching quickly like ghosts.

When they saw the true face of these black shadows, they couldn't help but gasp - they were actually mutants of the little monsters they had encountered before! These mutants were not only larger in size and stronger, but also numerous, pouring in like a tide.

Facing such a powerful enemy, Lin Ze and Su Yu did not dare to be negligent. They quickly stood back to back, formed a defensive circle, and engaged in fierce battle again.

However, this time the little monsters were obviously smarter and more cunning than before. They cooperated with each other very well and kept changing their attack methods, making Lin Ze and Su Yu exhausted.

As time went by, Lin Ze and Su Yu's spiritual power was gradually exhausted, and their movements became slower and slower. Just when they felt powerless and about to collapse, the stone door that had been tightly closed suddenly made a "creaking" sound and slowly opened.

A mysterious light shone out from the stone gate, the light was bright and dazzling, as if hiding endless secrets. Lin Ze and Su Yu looked at each other, and saw a hint of surprise and expectation in each other's eyes.

They didn't have time to think, and took advantage of the monster's attack slowing down and rushed into the stone gate with all their might.

Inside the stone gate is a huge cave with a sphere emitting soft light suspended in the center. The surrounding walls are engraved with strange runes, and the flashing runes seem to contain powerful power.

However, just as they approached the sphere, a monster of gigantic size, emitting a black aura, slowly walked out from the depths of the cave, its eyes revealing endless ferocity and greed.

This monster is much stronger than those small mutants, and Lin Ze and Su Yu were at a disadvantage as soon as they fought with it.

Just when they were in dire straits, the sphere suddenly shone brightly, and a mysterious power surged into their bodies, instantly restoring their spiritual power and increasing their strength.

Lin Ze and Su Yu took this opportunity to use their strongest moves and launched the final showdown with the monster.

After a thrilling, life-and-death battle, they finally defeated the extremely ferocious and powerful monster.

After the battle, the scene was in a mess, with monster remains and blood everywhere, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood. They stood there panting, looking at each other's exhausted but joyful faces, and a big stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground.

After a short rest, they carefully picked up the sphere and put it into a special backpack. The sphere exuded a mysterious light, and seemed to contain endless energy and secrets.

Then, they turned and walked towards the cave's exit. As their footsteps got farther and farther away, the huge stone door slowly closed behind them, making a dull sound. The sound echoed in the empty cave, making people feel emotional.

The moment the stone door closed, it seemed as if time had frozen and everything returned to calm, as if the fierce battle just now had never happened.

Although this trip to the ruins was full of dangers and unknowns, they also gained this powerful treasure. This sphere will undoubtedly add more confidence and strength to their next journey.

However, not long after they walked out of the ruins, they sensed a powerful aura watching them in secret.

Before they could react, a group of mysterious people suddenly appeared and surrounded them.

The leader was a middle-aged man with sinister eyes. He sneered and said, "Hand over the sphere and I will spare your lives." Lin Ze and Su Yu looked at each other and held their backpacks tightly.

They knew very well that the sphere was as precious as life, so how could they hand it over so easily? At that moment, the atmosphere between the two sides became extremely tense, as if a little spark would trigger an earth-shattering explosion.

The mysterious man launched the attack without hesitation, and all kinds of colorful spells came at Lin Ze and Su Yu like dense raindrops. Although Lin Ze and Su Yu had just improved their strength, they could only barely parry in the face of such a fierce attack.

However, there were too many mysterious people, and their attacks continued in waves, with no sign of stopping. Lin Ze and Su Yu gradually felt that they were overwhelmed, and the situation that they could barely hold on to began to tilt in a direction that was unfavorable to them.

At this critical moment, the sphere that had been quietly lying in the backpack suddenly seemed to be activated by some force and shone brightly again. Then, a powerful and mysterious force continuously overflowed from the backpack, quickly forming a solid shield around Lin Ze and Su Yu.

This shield was like an indestructible wall, blocking all the spells that rained down on him. Seeing this, the mysterious man not only did not retreat at all, but his attack became even more fierce, as if he wanted to break through the shield in one fell swoop.

While the shield was still able to temporarily block the mysterious man's attack, Lin Ze and Su Yu began to look for opportunities to break through in this brief breathing time.

Suddenly, Su Yu seemed to have thought of a good idea, and a cunning light flashed in his eyes. He quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered something. Then, a thick mist gushed out from his hands and quickly spread.

The fog came so suddenly that the mysterious people had no time to react before they were completely enveloped. Their vision was instantly blocked and they lost their target for a moment.

Seeing this, Lin Ze and Su Yu immediately seized this rare opportunity and rushed in one direction with all their strength. Their speed was as fast as lightning, like two arrows from a bow, they broke through the mysterious man's encirclement, and then rushed away without looking back.
