After shaking off the men in black, Lin Yang and Chen Feng continued their travels in the cultivation world. By chance, they heard a legend about a mysterious ruin. It was said that the ruin was hidden deep within an ancient forest, the place where a powerful ancient being had passed away, and that it contained endless magical treasures, cultivation techniques, and rare spiritual objects.
This news greatly excited Lin Yang and Chen Feng, and they decided to go and explore. After several days of searching, they finally found the entrance to the ruins deep in the forest. The entrance was shrouded in a mysterious light curtain, on which strange runes flickered, radiating an ancient and powerful aura.
Lin Yang tried touching the light barrier with the fallen coin. The barrier trembled slightly, and the runes flickered even more intensely. Suddenly, a crack appeared in the light barrier. Lin Yang and Chen Feng exchanged a glance and, without hesitation, crawled through it.
Upon entering the ruins, they found themselves in a vast palace. The palace walls were covered with various mysterious patterns and inscriptions, and the floor was paved with smooth jade that emitted a soft glow. In the center of the palace stood a large stone platform, upon which rested an ancient box.
As Lin Yang and Chen Feng approached the stone platform, suddenly, a group of puppets formed from spiritual energy surged out from all directions. The puppets were tall and imposing, wielding various weapons and exuding a powerful aura. Lin Yang's heart tightened, and he quickly retrieved a magical artifact from the space within the coin he had placed on the ground, preparing to fight.
Chen Feng was equally relentless, unleashing his magic, beams of spiritual energy shooting towards the puppets. Lin Yang, utilizing the spatial abilities of the Landing Coin, skillfully dodged the puppets' attacks while searching for their weaknesses. After a fierce battle, Lin Yang discovered that the puppets' joints were their weak points. He seized the opportunity, attacking the puppets' joints with his magical artifact, successfully destroying several puppets.
Just as they were fiercely battling the puppets, they suddenly heard a series of light footsteps. Lin Yang was startled; he knew that others had also entered the ruins. Sure enough, a group of cultivators appeared at the palace gate a moment later. Seeing Lin Yang and Chen Feng fighting the puppets, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes, and they joined the battle.
With everyone's combined efforts, the puppet was quickly destroyed. However, before they could even catch their breath, countless spiritual energy arrows suddenly shot out from the palace walls. Lin Yang shouted, "Everyone, be careful!" Everyone quickly cast spells to deflect the arrows. Lin Yang then surveyed the surrounding environment again, hoping to find a way to avert the crisis.
Suddenly, he noticed that the patterns on the palace walls seemed to contain some kind of hidden pattern. Lin Yang concentrated and, following the pattern, stepped out in a specific manner on the ground. As he moved, the spiritual energy arrows gradually stopped, and the palace returned to calm.
Everyone looked at Lin Yang with admiration. Then, someone said, "Now that the crisis is over, the box on the stone platform should belong to us all, and its contents should be divided equally." Lin Yang hesitated. He knew that conflict might arise again over the distribution of spoils. But he also understood that in this ruin, unity was perhaps the best way to deal with the unknown dangers. So, he nodded in agreement. However, Lin Yang knew in his heart that this peace was only temporary. With the opening of the box, more challenges and opportunities would surely await them. He clenched his fists secretly, preparing to face whatever was to come.
