As before, Bai Ying ate a few more red fruits, and then put the remaining fruits into her storage bag.

At this moment, she felt as if she had been reborn. Every bone in her body was being strengthened and made denser under the tempering of this power.

As she ate each fruit, the changes in her body became increasingly noticeable. Her originally mortal body underwent a transformation from the inside out, gradually radiating a warm and restrained luster like precious jade.

At the same time, her physical strength also underwent a qualitative leap, with every muscle and meridian becoming tough and powerful under the nourishment of this force.

The green fruit next to these two types of fruit is used to quickly heal injuries.

Bai Ying ate one, and in an instant, a warm and gentle power surged through her body. The few remaining injuries on her body, whether minor scratches or hidden injuries caused by the consumption of spiritual energy, disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, the depleted spiritual energy was like a dried-up riverbed receiving a raging flood, instantly being filled and restored to its peak state.

The speed of this recovery far exceeded that of the jade pendant that Bai Ying usually relied on for repair.

Her eyes suddenly lit up. If she were to consume one of these green fruits while using the Berserk Jade Pendant and was suffering from spiritual energy depletion, wouldn't she be able to quickly recover and regain the strength to fight again?

Bai Ying was overjoyed, but the number of these green fruits was extremely limited, only ten in total. She had already eaten one, and now only nine remained.

After collecting the fruits, Bai Ying even wanted to transplant a few divine trees back to the sect. Unfortunately, the divine trees and the soil on the ground were extremely hard, and even if she used all her strength, she could not budge them in the slightest.

A hint of regret appeared on Bai Ying's face as she continued walking forward.

She hadn't walked far when a bottomless cave appeared before her. Bai Ying cautiously approached the cave, and with each step she took, she could feel a powerful suction force coming from the depths of the cave, pulling at her body.

Despite feeling a little apprehensive, her intense curiosity drove her to continue.

The moment she stepped into the cave, the sight before her made her eyes widen instantly; she could hardly believe what she was seeing.

Inside the cave, countless elixirs were densely packed together, each one round and plump, radiating an alluring luster, and a rich fragrance filled the air, intoxicating all who smelled it.

Beside the elixir were countless spirit stones, as well as all sorts of dazzling magical treasures.

Bai Ying was deeply shocked by this amazing sight and unconsciously quickened her pace to walk deeper into the cave.

Her eyes were only on the precious elixirs and magical treasures, but she didn't see at all that a huge array pattern was quietly emerging beneath her feet, emitting an eerie light.

As her fingers gently touched one of the magical artifacts, Bai Ying felt an indescribable joy welling up from her heart.

She felt an indescribable sense of joy, and a thought popped into her mind: she really wanted to stay here forever. With so many spirit stones, spiritual herbs, and magical treasures, why would she want to go out?

She should stay here forever...

Bai Ying slowly picked up another elixir. The elixir emitted a soft light, and its rich medicinal fragrance, like an invisible magic, entered her nostrils, refreshing her heart and soul.

Just from the scent, she felt every cell in her body cheering and a joyful urge to ascend to heaven rose within her.

Her eyes became glazed over, and she was completely immersed in the wonderful feeling, unaware that her fingers were visibly drying out after touching these things, her skin losing its former luster and becoming wrinkled.

Her heart was filled with greed and desire, and she couldn't wait to grab all the magical treasures and elixirs around her, as if she was afraid that they would suddenly disappear.

At this moment, the voice in his mind grew clearer and stronger, "Stay, stay!"

Her own mouth murmured uncontrollably, "Stay, I want to stay forever. I want to stay here for the rest of my life."

The voice seemed to come from the depths of the soul, carrying a bewitching power.

However, at that very moment, Bai Ying's body suddenly stiffened, as if she had been struck by something.

A strong sense of unease welled up inside her; she felt something was amiss. She couldn't help but mutter, "No, something's not right."

But what exactly is wrong?

She tried hard to clear her mind, but felt her brain was a complete mess. Hadn't she always longed to stay here and enjoy all of this? Why did this feel wrong?

Could it be that she still has something important to finish?

But what is she going to do?

Bai Ying tilted her head in confusion, her brows furrowed, trying hard to recall.

Just then, a terrifying image suddenly flashed into her mind: she was being devoured by the inner demon curse, trapped in endless pain and torment, and finally died in despair.

The scene shifts to the Huayang Sect cultivators emerging from seclusion at the Void Refinement stage, who then brutally murder all those connected to her, staining the earth with blood and echoing the screams of their fellow disciples.

She suddenly opened her eyes, her heart pounding violently as if it were about to leap out of her chest.

Cold sweat instantly soaked her back. She then realized that there was a huge illusion in the cave, and she had fallen into it again!

Bai Ying had been under a spell of inner demons, making her much more resistant to illusions than the average person, but she still fell for it.

Fortunately, after she planted the inner demon curse, she set a restriction on herself. Whenever she entered the illusion, the restriction would pop the things she feared most out of her mind and remind her.

Bai Ying felt that this place was too eerie. After she regained consciousness, she realized that her body was drying up at an alarming rate, her skin was becoming wrinkled, and her flesh and blood had been drained.

If she stays here any longer, she will die here soon.

Bai Ying quickly retreated, no longer coveting any of the treasures here.

But when she hurriedly ran out of the cave, she found that no matter how she ran, it seemed like there was an endless road, and she couldn't get out. Behind her were still the treasures inside the cave.

Bai Ying broke out in a cold sweat; she was trapped here!
