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

Chapter 518: New clues appear: Xiao Bei is in danger

Xiao Bei took a deep breath, his eyes as sharp as torches, as if he could see through everything deep within the ruins.

He clenched his fists and felt the power surging in his body. That was the miracle brought to him by Beili's blood.

There was still a hint of the sweet scent of pink bubbles in the air around them, but at this moment, Xiao Bei's heart was filled with determination.

He wants to find the answer, uncover the true face of this mysterious power, and by the way, beat all the little monsters who dare to obstruct him into pieces!

"Let's go. It's time to let the old guys in these ruins know who is the protagonist here!" Xiao Bei raised a confident smile and strode forward.

Bei Li followed closely behind, her big eyes full of curiosity, as if to say, "Don't worry, I'm here. If anyone dares to touch you, I'll beat him into a pig's head!"

As the two moved forward, the surrounding scenery kept changing, and those ferocious little monsters gradually disappeared, replaced by an eerie silence.

Xiao Bei felt as if there was some kind of force guiding him. He could sense that there was a huge secret ahead waiting for him to uncover.

Finally, they came to a cave.

The entrance of the cave was pitch black, like the mouth of a giant beast, emitting an unsettling aura.

Xiao Bei narrowed his eyes and observed his surroundings carefully. He could feel that the spiritual energy fluctuations here were very chaotic and definitely not simple.

"Be careful, something is wrong here." Xiao Bei reminded, and at the same time took out a dagger from the system backpack and held it tightly in his hand.

Beili nodded. She also felt something strange around her. A cold breath was slowly emanating from the depths of the cave.

Xiao Bei took a deep breath, took a step forward and stepped into the cave.

"Click!"

A crisp sound echoed in the cave, as if the god of death had sounded the alarm.

The next second, green poisonous mist gushed out from countless tiny holes, instantly filling the entire cave.

"Shit!" Xiao Bei exclaimed, holding his breath and dodging like a ghost, trying to avoid the invasion of the poisonous fog.

But the poisonous fog seemed to have life, chasing him relentlessly and soon enveloping him.

He felt his breathing becoming difficult, and waves of burning and stinging sensations came from his chest. This poisonous fog was definitely highly toxic!

The cave suddenly became full of dangers, and the oppressive atmosphere made Xiao Bei's heart rise to his throat.

While dodging, Xiao Bei cursed himself for being careless. He just wanted to leave this damn poisonous fog area as soon as possible, but the poisonous fog seemed to have eyes, and it clung to him tightly, making it impossible for him to escape.

Just when he was getting extremely worried, his feet suddenly felt empty. Xiao Bei knew that something was wrong. Was he really going to die?

The poisonous fog in the cave lingered around Xiao Bei like a ghost, making his breathing increasingly difficult and his chest felt as if it were being burned by fire.

Just as he was trying his best to dodge, his feet were empty and his body sank suddenly, followed by a sharp pain.

Cold sweat broke out from his forehead. He looked down and saw countless sharp iron spikes suddenly popping out from the ground. One of the spikes pierced through his calf directly, and blood instantly dyed his clothes red.

"Fuck, what the hell is this!" Xiao Bei gritted his teeth. The pain made him speechless for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.

He couldn't fall down here, Beili was still waiting for him outside.

He forcibly pulled out the iron thorn from his leg. The intense pain almost made him lose his balance, but he steadied himself and his eyes became more determined.

At this moment, Beili's heart almost jumped out of her chest. She was trying desperately to rush into the cave, but an invisible force bound her outside, like an invisible barrier.

She shouted anxiously: "Xiao Bei, hold on, I'll come to rescue you right away!"

Hearing Bei Li's call, Xiao Bei felt warm in his heart, but he knew she couldn't come in now.

He quickly observed his surroundings, trying to find a way to crack the mechanism.

The poisonous fog was still spreading, and the iron spike mechanism could be activated again at any time, but this just aroused his fighting spirit.

He took a deep breath, and despite the severe pain in his chest, his eyes became more determined.

He began to observe the mechanism on the ground carefully and finally discovered the triggering mechanism of the iron spikes.

He moved cautiously, avoiding possible traps, and gradually approached the cave entrance.

Bei Li was stamping her feet anxiously outside, tears glistening in her eyes. She clenched her fists and prayed silently in her heart: "Xiao Bei, you must hold on. I won't let anything happen to you!"

At this moment, a low humming sound came from the depths of the cave, as if some huge creature was waking up.

Xiao Bei felt a chill rising from his spine, his heart tightened, but his eyes remained firm.

"Don't worry, Beili, I won't fall so easily." Xiao Bei whispered, with a hint of determination in his tone.

He continued forward, each step being as if walking on thin ice, but he did not stop.

Xiao Bei endured the severe pain in his leg. Just as he moved cautiously, trying to crack the mechanism, a chilling growl came from deep in the cave.

Immediately afterwards, a huge black shadow suddenly rushed out from the darkness and rushed towards Xiao Bei.

It was a gigantic demonic insect with a shell as hard as steel, disgusting mucus flowing from its mouthparts, and a pair of huge compound eyes flashing with bloodthirsty light.

"Fuck! This thing is too big!" Xiao Bei cursed in his heart. Before he could dodge, he was hit hard by the magic insect. His body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and hit the stone wall heavily. It seemed as if his internal organs were about to shift.

"boom!"

A human-shaped depression was left on the stone wall, and broken stones fell down.

Xiao Bei felt a tightness in his chest and a mouthful of blood almost spurted out.

He endured the pain, stood up with a somersault, and stared at the demon insect.

The demon insect didn't give him a chance to breathe. It roared and pounced on him again. Its huge claws were like two sharp sickles, slashing at Xiao Bei fiercely.

Xiao Bei quickly dodged, but the demon insect's attack speed was too fast, he could only barely defend himself, his figure kept retreating, and he was forced into a miserable state.

"This big guy is too strong!" Xiao Bei groaned inwardly while dodging.

He could feel that every attack of the demon insect carried great force. If he was hit head-on, he would probably be crushed into meat paste.

Just when he felt a little tired, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to his mind.

He remembered that he had seen a spell in ancient books that was specifically used to control insects, called the "Insect Repellent Spell."

Although he thought this spell was useless at the time, it now seems like a life-saving straw!

Xiao Bei took a deep breath, concentrated his mind, and quickly formed seals with his hands, muttering: "With my blood, I will control all insect spirits, dispel evil spirits, and bind!"

As the spell was completed, a faint golden light emanated from his body, and a mysterious power instantly enveloped the entire cave.

The demon insect, which was originally extremely ferocious, seemed to have pressed the pause button. Its movements instantly became slow, its body began to tremble slightly, and it let out a painful hiss.

"Oh, it seems this trick is quite effective!" Xiao Bei had a smug smile on his face, his heart full of fighting spirit.

He tightened his grip on the dagger in his hand again, his eyes were like torches, and his aura instantly became fierce.

Bei Li saw this scene outside the cave entrance, excitedly waving his fists and cheering loudly: "Xiao Bei, good job! Kill it!!"

The originally depressing atmosphere suddenly became relaxed, as if all crises had been resolved.

However, at this moment, disturbing whispers came again from the depths of the cave.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

The whisper was like a call from hell, full of weirdness and eeriness, making people shudder.

Xiao Bei and Bei Li were both stunned, feeling that things were not that simple.

Xiao Bei's eyes narrowed as he looked into the depths of the cave and whispered, "It seems the best is yet to come..."

Xiao Bei finally escaped from the cave. The moment he jumped out of the cave, he felt as if he was liberated.

Outside the cave, Beili was waiting anxiously, his eyes full of worry.

As soon as she saw Xiao Bei coming out, she rushed forward and hugged him tightly in her arms.

"You bastard, you almost scared me to death!" Although Beili's words were reproachful, his voice was full of concern and love.

Xiao Bei felt her warmth, and the tension and pain in his heart gradually dissipated. He hugged her back tenderly, chuckling softly, "Don't worry, I'm fine, aren't I? Your husband won't fall down so easily."

Beili breathed a sigh of relief, but tears were still glistening in her eyes. She gently patted Xiao Bei's back, as if to comfort him and herself.

The warmth between the two spread, and the danger around them seemed to be dispelled, and a sweet scent filled the air.

But Xiao Bei didn't have time to indulge in this warmth for too long.

He frowned slightly and looked down at a piece of broken stone in his hand. There were complex runes engraved on it, which were the clues he found in the cave.

This clue pointed to a more dangerous place, and Xiao Bei suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Beili, the place this clue points to is probably not that simple." Xiao Bei's voice became serious. He raised his head and looked into the distance with a determined gaze.

Bei Li felt the change in Xiao Bei. She nodded, held Xiao Bei's hand, and said softly, "No matter how dangerous it is, I will stay by your side."

Xiao Bei smiled slightly, held Bei Li's hand tightly, turned around and walked in the direction of the clue.

"Let's go, Beili, let's uncover the secret behind this together." Xiao Bei's words were full of determination and confidence, as if nothing could stop them.
