Traveling through the world of immortal cultivation: My system is amazing

Chapter 825: Conspiracy Revealed: Xiao Bei Investigates

Bei Li looked at Xiao Bei worriedly, with an indelible haze between his brows.

"What's wrong?" she asked softly, her fingertips gently stroking his hand that was holding the jade pendant tightly. The chill seemed to penetrate the jade pendant and reach her fingertips, making her shiver.

"This jade pendant..." Xiao Bei paused and handed it to Bei Li, "Take a look."

Beili took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully.

The jade pendant felt icy cold to the touch, and the strange symbols squirmed in her eyes like living things, making her feel dizzy.

"This is... the symbol of the Creation God Clan!" Bei Li exclaimed. She came from the ancient immortal clan and was naturally familiar with these ancient symbols.

"That's right." Xiao Bei's voice was low, with a barely perceptible tremor, "The Creation God Clan has long disappeared, and the appearance of this jade pendant is by no means accidental." The ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger, as if some huge conspiracy was brewing.

Xiao Bei decided to follow this clue and investigate further.

He knew very well that this matter was of great importance and that any carelessness would lead to irreparable consequences.

He put the jade pendant away and said to Beili, "Li'er, I have to go to the old site of Xingyun Pavilion. You stay here and wait for me."

"No, I want to go with you!" Bei Li held Xiao Bei's hand tightly, his eyes full of determination. "I know you are worried about my safety, but I am not afraid. I want to face it with you."

Xiao Bei looked at Bei Li's determined eyes and finally nodded.

He knew Beili's character very well, and he would not easily change his mind once he made a decision.

The two went to the former site of Xingyun Pavilion together.

This place has long been a ruin, with broken walls, overgrown weeds, and a smell of decay in the air.

Xiao Bei released his spiritual sense and carefully explored everything around him.

"Be careful!" Beili suddenly exclaimed and pulled Xiao Bei behind him.

Right where Xiao Bei was standing, a black light flashed, and a bottomless cave instantly appeared on the ground.

"It seems that someone doesn't want us to find out the truth." Xiao Bei's

Xiao Bei carefully avoided the traps and continued to go deeper into the ruins.

He discovered that the traps set by the enemy were layered and interconnected, and the slightest carelessness would trigger the mechanism.

He took every step with extreme caution, as if walking on the edge of a knife.

"Xiao Bei, be careful!" Bei Li reminded again. She keenly noticed the abnormal fluctuations of the fairy energy around her.

Xiao Bei immediately stopped and looked around vigilantly.

He felt a strong pressure coming towards him, and the air seemed to solidify, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"Come out!" Xiao Bei shouted coldly, and a golden light condensed in his hand.

A cold laugh filled the air: "As expected of the Lord of the Immortal Realm, you are indeed alert."

A dark shadow slowly emerged from the ruins, holding a dagger that was flashing with a faint blue light in his hand.

"Xiao Bei, your doomsday has come..."

As soon as the black shadow finished speaking, the ground under Xiao Bei's feet suddenly collapsed.

He was caught off guard and fell into a bottomless dark abyss.

As he fell, a powerful force restrained his body, making him unable to move.

The immortal power seemed to be frozen, and not even a little bit could be mobilized.

The whistling sound of the wind in my ears was sharp and piercing, as if countless evil spirits were wailing.

The strong smell of decay filled the nostrils, making people feel sick.

"Damn it!" Xiao Bei cursed inwardly and tried hard to mobilize his immortal power, but found it was completely futile.

This trap was obviously designed specifically for him. It not only restricted his movements but also suppressed his spiritual power.

He felt a strange energy fluctuation in the air around him, which was icy cold and piercing, coiling around him like a poisonous snake, constantly devouring his strength.

The bottom of the trap is not flat ground, but is covered with sharp spikes.

Xiao Bei fell heavily on the sharp spikes, and severe pain instantly spread throughout his body.

But he clenched his teeth and didn't utter a groan.

He knew that now was not the time to show weakness.

He had to stay calm and find a way to escape.

He moved his fingers tentatively and found that the power that bound him was not completely unbreakable.

He took a deep breath, concentrated all his willpower on his fingertips, and attacked the restraining force bit by bit.

Time passed minute by minute, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on Xiao Bei's forehead.

He felt that his body was about to reach its limit, but the force that bound him began to loosen a little.

etc.

"Crack!" With a slight sound, the force that bound his right hand was finally broken.

Xiao Bei was delighted and quickly mobilized the remaining immortal power in his body to repair the wound pierced by the sharp thorns.

A trace of warm golden light gathered in his palm and slowly flowed throughout his body.

As his immortal power recovered, he felt that control of his body was gradually returning.

The fire of hope rekindled in his eyes, and he tried again to mobilize his immortal power to impact the power that was bound in other parts of his body.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, Xiao Bei finally broke free from all restraints and stood up from the pile of spikes.

He clenched his fists, feeling the immortal power surging in his body again, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

"I want to see what other tricks you have!"

Suddenly, a cold voice came from the darkness: "Haha, it seems that you are more tenacious than I thought..."

In the darkness, countless pairs of scarlet eyes lit up, accompanied by a teeth-grinding sound of metal friction. A group of puppets emerged from all directions and surrounded Xiao Bei.

These puppets are tall and made entirely of some unknown black metal, emitting an icy chill.

Their movements were stiff but swift, brandishing sharp blades and rushing towards Xiao Bei.

Xiao Bei waved his fist filled with immortal power and started a fierce battle with the puppet.

Every collision made a deafening sound of metal collision and sparks flew.

He discovered that these puppets were not only numerous but also extremely hard. Even if he attacked them with all his strength, he could only leave shallow scratches on them.

The puppets were fearless and kept coming up one after another. Xiao Bei gradually felt overwhelmed.

While dodging the puppets' attacks, he carefully observed their movement patterns.

Soon, he discovered that the actions of these puppets were not completely irregular.

Although their movements were stiff, they were extremely coordinated, as if they were controlled by some force.

Xiao Bei's gaze was fixed on the core on the chest of each puppet, which was flashing with a faint blue light, and his mind moved: Could this be the source of their power?

Thinking of this, Xiao Bei no longer confronted the puppets head-on, but instead flexibly shuttled between them, looking for opportunities to attack their power cores.

He condensed sharp golden sword energy and accurately hit the puppet's chest.

With crisp cracking sounds, the puppets whose cores were hit stopped moving and collapsed to the ground.

The surrounding environment was completely destroyed in the fierce battle.

The ruins, which were already in ruins, are now even more devastated.

Gravel flew, dust filled the air, and a strong metallic smell filled the air.

The onlookers hiding in the dark were all shocked by Xiao Bei's ability to respond and his powerful strength, and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

During the fierce battle, Bei Li's figure emerged in Xiao Bei's mind.

He seemed to see her worried eyes and hear her gentle voice.

A warm feeling surged in his heart, making him even more motivated.

etc.

"Li'er, wait for me..." Xiao Bei whispered. He clasped his hands together, and a powerful wave of immortal energy burst out from his body...

"it's over!"

Golden light suddenly burst out, as dazzling as the rising sun.

A strong fluctuation of immortal power swept through the entire ruins, instantly devouring the remaining puppets.

The deafening explosion resounded throughout the world, rubble and metal debris flew everywhere like raindrops, and the ground shook violently as if it was about to collapse.

After the explosion, the dust settled and the once dense army of puppets had turned into a pile of twisted and deformed scrap metal, scattered all over the ground.

The air was filled with a pungent smell of burning mixed with the fishy smell of metal, which was nauseating.

Xiao Bei stood in the center of the ruins, his clothes rustling, golden immortal power surrounding him, like a god descending to earth.

He took a deep breath, feeling the surging power in his body, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

He looked around and confirmed that there was no more movement before slowly lowering his clenched fists.

At this moment, a dark shadow slowly walked out from the shadow of the ruins.

The black shadow was tall and shrouded in a wide black cloak, so his face could not be seen clearly.

Every step he took made a slight rustling sound, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, which was creepy.

"You're finally here." Xiao Bei's voice was low and cold, with a barely perceptible tremor.

The shadow let out a low laugh and slowly raised his head, revealing his face beneath the cloak.

It was a familiar face, once full of smiles, but now filled with gloom and indifference.

"Long time no see, Xiao Bei." The black shadow's voice was hoarse and harsh, as uncomfortable as the friction of metal.

Xiao Bei's pupils suddenly contracted, as if struck by lightning.

He looked at the person in front of him in disbelief, his lips trembling, but he couldn't say a word.

"Why, you don't recognize me?" The shadow's mouth curled up cruelly, "It's me, your good brother - Xuanming."

Xiao Bei's mind went blank, as if something had collapsed.

Xuan Ming, his once most trusted brother, his best friend who had been through thick and thin with him and fought side by side, now stood opposite him and became his greatest enemy.

"Why?" Xiao Bei's voice was hoarse and weak, as if it was squeezed out from the depths of his throat.

Xuan Ming sneered, "Why? For power, for control of everything! Who do you think you are? The ruler of the immortal world? Ridiculous! I am the one destined by heaven!"

Xiao Bei clenched his fists, his nails dug deep into his flesh, and blood flowed slowly through his fingers.

He felt a cold chill spreading from the bottom of his heart, as if he had fallen into an abyss.

"You..." Xiao Bei's voice trembled, full of pain and anger.

Xuanming" He raised his right hand, and a black energy ball condensed in his palm, emitting a breath of destruction.

Xiao Bei looked at Xuan Ming, he clenched his fists...
