Balala the Magic Fairy

After saying goodbye to Xiao Zhanzhan and others, they left Baipingzhou.

One day, they came to a place called Mount Gao, which was shrouded in mist and had a mysterious and dangerous atmosphere.

"This place looks unusual, everyone be careful," Yan Lili warned.

Zhan Tianjiao tightly grasped his spear and nodded in response: "Well, don't take it lightly."

They climbed up the winding mountain road, and suddenly, a sinister laughter echoed among the mountains.

"Hahahaha, another person who doesn't know how to live or die has come to my door!"

Yan Lili and others were shocked to see a strange man in a black robe walking out of the clouds.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass here!" the strange man shouted angrily.

Yan Lili stepped forward and said, "We are only looking for clues about the Twelve Beauties, and we have no intention of offending you."

The weirdo sneered: "The Twelve Beauties? That's not something you can get!" Then he attacked them.

Yan Lili quickly swung the Chaos Sword to block the monster's attack. Zhan Tianjiao was not to be outdone, and swung his spear to engage in a fierce battle with the monster. Jia Baoyu cast spells on the side to provide support for the two.

However, this weirdo was extremely powerful, and his moves were weird and tricky, which gradually put Yan Lili and others into trouble.

"This is not a solution!" Yan Lili was anxious.

At this moment, a clear crane cry suddenly came from the sky. A huge crane descended from the sky, its feathers were like snow, and its wings spread out like colorful clouds.

The crane swooped down towards the weirdo, forcing him to distract himself to deal with it.

"Is this crane a friend or an enemy?" Zhan Tianjiao wondered.

A powerful aura gushed out of the crane's mouth and hit the monster directly. Under the crane's attack, the monster retreated step by step.

Yan Lili and others took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and together with Xianhe, they forced the monster into a desperate situation.

"Mercy! Mercy!" begged the strange man.

Yan Lili put away her sword and asked, "Tell me, why are you stopping us here?"

The strange man said helplessly: "I am the mountain god of this Mount Gao. I was bewitched by the evil power and attacked you."

"Then do you know any clues about the Twelve Beauties?" Jia Baoyu asked anxiously.

The weirdo shook his head: "I don't know the clues to the Twelve Beauties, but I know there is a cave on this mountain, which may be related to what you are looking for."

Yan Lili and others looked at each other and decided to follow the strange man to the cave.

In front of the cave, cranes were circling in the air, as if protecting the few people.

Yan Lili carefully pushed open the door of the cave, and an ancient and vicissitudes of life atmosphere hit her face.

The walls of the cave are engraved with strange symbols and patterns.

"What is this?" Zhan Tianjiao asked puzzledly.

Yan Lili observed these symbols carefully, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to her mind.

"These symbols must be some kind of ancient puzzle."

Everyone began to solve the puzzle, time passed, and finally, with everyone's joint efforts, the puzzle was solved.

A beam of light shot out from the depths of the cave. Everyone followed the light and saw an exquisite box lying there quietly.

Yan Lili opened the box and found an ancient painting inside.

The ancient painting depicts a graceful woman holding a golden hairpin.

"Is this the clue to the Twelve Beauties?" Jia Baoyu asked doubtfully.

Yan Lili looked at the ancient painting carefully and suddenly found a line of small words on the back of the painting.

It reads: "The desolate Kun axis, the vast Tianshu."

"What does this mean?" Zhan Tianjiao frowned and thought.

At this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the cave, making it impossible for everyone to open their eyes.

When the wind died down, they found themselves in a strange place.

This is an ancient pavilion, surrounded by a light mist.

"What is this place?" Yan Lili looked around vigilantly.

They walked into the pavilion carefully. It was empty with only old tables and chairs and dusty windows.

"Creaky--" Jia Baoyu accidentally bumped into a chair, making a harsh sound.

"Be careful!" Before Yan Lili finished her words, countless black shadows suddenly appeared around them and pounced towards them.

Yan Lili swung the Chaos Sword, the sword light flashed, and the shadows were dispersed. But the shadows kept pouring in, as if endless.

"This is not a solution!" Zhan Tianjiao said loudly.

While resisting the attack of the black shadow, everyone was looking for clues in the pavilion.

Finally, they found a huge black ball on the top floor of the pavilion.

Yan Lili raised the Chaos Sword without hesitation and slashed at Maruzu.

Just as the sword was about to touch the Maru, a powerful force burst out from the Maru and knocked Yan Lili away.

"Lily!" Zhan Tianjiao and Jia Baoyu ran over hurriedly.

Yan Lili stood up and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.

"I'm fine, come again!"

The three of them rushed towards Maruzhu again, and this time, they gathered all their strength together and finally broke Maruzhu.

The black shadow disappeared in an instant, and peace returned to the pavilion.

"Is it solved?" Zhan Tianjiao breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the building began to shake violently and seemed about to collapse.

"Oh no, let's get out of here!" Yan Lili shouted.

The three of them quickly rushed out of the pavilion, and just as they left, the pavilion collapsed with a loud bang, raising a cloud of dust.

"What should we do next?" asked Jia Baoyu.

Yan Lili looked at the ancient painting in her hand and said, "Let's find a way to leave here first."

Just as they were thinking about their next move, a melodious flute sound suddenly came from a distance.

"This flute sound..." Zhan Tianjiao looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw a man in white standing on the top of a mountain not far away, holding a jade flute in his hand.

"You are finally here." said the man in white with a smile.

Yan Lili asked warily: "Who are you?"

The man in white smiled gently: "I am the master here."

The man in white looked at Yan Lili and the others, his eyes lingering on the ancient painting for a moment, and he said slowly: "The secret hidden in this ancient painting is not so easy to unravel."

Yan Lili frowned and asked, "Since you are the owner of this place, you must know the origin of this painting."

The man in white nodded gently: "This painting is inextricably linked to the Twelve Beauties, but if you want to know the truth, you must pass my test first."

Zhan Tianjiao clenched his spear and said, "What test? Come on!"

The man in white smiled slightly and waved the jade flute in his hand. The scene in front of everyone changed instantly and they came to a garden.

"This is..." Jia Baoyu looked around in surprise, "This seems to be the Grand View Garden."

The garden is full of colorful flowers, and pavilions and towers are scattered around.

"You have to find three keys in this Grand View Garden." The voice of the man in white echoed in the air.

Yan Lili and others looked at each other, then walked into the Grand View Garden cautiously.

The paths in the garden twisted and turned, and as they walked they came to a quiet courtyard.

In the courtyard, an ancient willow tree swayed in the wind.

Suddenly, a figure flashed out from behind the willow tree, and it turned out to be a pretty girl.

"Are you here to look for the key?" the woman asked with a smile.

Yan Lili looked at her warily: "Who are you?"

The woman blinked and said, "I am... I am... I don't know who I am, but I know that if you want to get the key, you have to answer my questions first."

"What's the problem?" Zhan Tianjiao asked.

The woman smiled and said, "Do you know where the flowers in the Grand View Garden are the most beautiful?"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

Jia Baoyu pondered for a moment and said, "In my opinion, it is the peony in the Yihong Courtyard."

The woman smiled and said, "That's right. This is the first key." As she spoke, a golden key appeared out of thin air in her hand and she handed it to Jia Baoyu.

Everyone got the first key and continued searching in the Grand View Garden.

After crossing an exquisite stone bridge, they came to a quiet bamboo forest.

A melodious sound of piano came from the bamboo forest.

Following the sound, I saw an elegant man sitting on a stone bench, playing the piano attentively.

When the man saw them coming, he stopped what he was doing and said slowly: "If you want the second key, you need to answer my questions."

Yan Lili stepped forward and said, "Please speak."

The man gently stroked the zither and asked, "Where in the Grand View Garden is the coolest wind?"

Zhan Tianjiao thought for a moment and replied, "The wind is the coolest by the lake next to the Ouxiang Pavilion."

The man smiled and nodded, then took out a silver key and handed it to Zhan Tianjiao.

There was still one key missing, so everyone continued to move forward.

They came to a rockery and an old man suddenly appeared in front of them.

The old man's eyes were bright, and he said, "This is the last question. If you can answer it correctly, I will give you this last key."

Everyone waited with bated breath.

The old man slowly spoke: "Which pavilion in the Grand View Garden has the most meaningful name?"

Yan Lili's mind quickly flashed through the pavilions in the Grand View Garden, and she said, "I think it's the Qinfang Pavilion."

The old man laughed and said, "Good, good, this is the last key." Then he handed a bronze key to Yan Lili.

After getting the three keys, everyone prepared to leave the Grand View Garden.

However, just as they turned around, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed and countless mists surged up.

"Oh no, what's going on?" Jia Baoyu looked worried.

Yan Lili tightly grasped the Chaos Sword and looked around vigilantly: "Everyone be careful, don't panic."

In the mist, the voice of the man in white came: "If you want to leave, you need to put the three keys into the corresponding keyholes."

Everyone began to grope in the fog, looking for the keyhole.

Time passed minute by minute, and just when they were extremely anxious, Zhan Tianjiao finally found a keyhole.

He quickly inserted the silver key in his hand, and there was a "click" sound and a flash of light.

Then, Jia Baoyu also found the second keyhole and inserted the golden key.

After some searching, Yan Lili found the last keyhole and inserted the bronze key.

In an instant, the fog dissipated and they were back to the top of the mountain where the man in white was.

The man in white smiled and said, "Congratulations on passing the test. Now, I will tell you the secret of the ancient painting."

Yan Lili stared at the handsome face of the man in white and became suspicious.

Just as she was about to ask something, the smile on the man in white disappeared instantly and his face turned gloomy.

Yan Lili was shocked and immediately became alert.

The man in white was seen waving his hands and muttering something. A powerful light shot out from his hands and rushed straight towards Yan Lili and the others.

Yan Lili quickly swung the Chaos Sword, trying to resist the force, but the impact of the light was so strong that they were pushed back one after another.

Zhan Tianjiao and Jia Baoyu also quickly used their respective skills to fight against this powerful force together with Yan Lili.
