Zhang Yuan stopped, and the cheetah also stopped, keeping a distance of several meters from Zhang Yuan.
In front of the cliff was a relatively open area.
The cheetah bared its teeth and let out a chilling growl. In a flash, it transformed into three identical cheetahs, surrounding Zhang Yuan in front of the cliff.
Zhang Yuan had already taken out the Burst Pill and was holding it in his palm.
Just then, a rustling sound came from the forest, and something moved quickly. When Zhang Yuan looked up, a huge creature was already in front of him!
That was a huge, ugly spider, five or six meters tall!
A giant gray spider stood behind the cheetah.
Upon seeing the enormous gray spider, the black cheetah trembled involuntarily. It crouched down and immediately fled in another direction, but it was too late. The huge and ugly gray spider spat out a web, ensnaring the cheetah. Then, its scythe-like, sharp spider legs pierced the body of the black cheetah, a novice demon general, as easily as cutting tofu, swallowing the ferocious beast of the novice demon general realm whole.
The black cheetah's blood was splattered all over the ground.
Upon seeing the giant gray spider, Zhang Yuan's first reaction was to run away immediately!
This is definitely a ferocious beast at least at the mid-level of the Demon General realm!
The moment the cheetah was killed, Zhang Yuan had already spat out the explosive pill and fled in the opposite direction of the cheetah. However, the gray spider clearly did not want to let this human go.
The ferocious gray spider beast, possessing eight long legs, extends another spider leg.
The spider's scythe-like legs, gleaming with a cold light, blocked Zhang Yuan's path. After consuming the Burst Pill, Zhang Yuan's aura surged to its peak, and his true energy transformed into golden light that enveloped his body, thus blocking the gray spider's scythe-like sharp legs.
The immense impact knocked Zhang Yuan down from the air.
Meanwhile, the gray spider was also busy on the other side, its mouthparts chewing rapidly. In less than two seconds, the more than two-meter-long cheetah was completely devoured.
Zhang Yuan was knocked to the ground, and another spider leg, as sharp as steel, was already stabbing towards him. At this moment, Zhang Yuan used the Azure Cloud Step to its fullest extent. He rolled over like a carp and narrowly avoided the deadly spikes of the spider leg.
The spikes, several meters long, pierced the spot where Zhang Yuan landed, sending dirt and debris flying and creating a deep crater about half a meter deep in the ground.
The gray spider used its eight long legs to its advantage; when one leg missed, it thrust out another, looking at Zhang Yuan defiantly.
He swung his long legs incredibly fast, the scythe-like long legs arriving in an instant. Zhang Yuan dared not slacken his pace at all, circulating all his true energy into his palms!
This punch contains the strongest power of the Unleashed Core Formation, and with the addition of the Tiger Fist, its power should be no less than that of a punch from a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator!
boom!
Tiger Fist clashed with Spider Scythe's long spider legs, blocking the spider's attack.
boom!
Another spider leg shot out like lightning, but Zhang Yuan managed to block it again.
The spider's sharp spines pressed down on Zhang Yuan's fist, causing his body to sink several tens of centimeters into the ground! The Burst Pill could only enhance Zhang Yuan's explosive power for a short time, but the effect could only be maintained for a very short period of time.
Especially when facing the Gray Spider, a mid-stage Demon General, Zhang Yuan blocked the Gray Spider's attacks three times, almost reaching his limit.
As his true energy was depleted, the golden light protecting Zhang Yuan's body slowly faded and disappeared.
puff!
Zhang Yuan spat out a mouthful of blood!
His strength was waning, and his face was turning pale.
"Damn it!"
Zhang Yuan was filled with immense resentment, but what could he do? At this moment, his arm, which had barely managed to block the spider legs, was trembling. As his true energy dissipated, the sharp spider legs began to cut into the flesh of Zhang Yuan's arm.
The gray spider continued its relentless attack, swinging its other leg and stabbing at you!
"It's over!
Depend on! "
The sharp spider legs pierced Zhang Yuan's chest like they pierced a black cheetah, sending excruciating pain through every cell, and scalding blood gushed out from the wound...
Zhang Yuan's eyes slowly lost their light, and his vision began to darken!
Just when Zhang Yuan thought he was going to die, the thumb-sized white jade stone on his body rippled with a soft light, which covered Zhang Yuan's entire body!
Zhang Yuan saw a white light!
The white light slowly expanded and became clearer. Suddenly, Zhang Yuan opened his eyes!
The giant gray spider had vanished, as had the dense forest and the towering cliffs behind it. All that remained in sight was a small, barren expanse of land.
"Not dead?"
Zhang Yuan touched his chest and found no wounds. His arm, which had been cut by the gray spider, was also intact!
"What happened?"
"I think I'm really okay!!!"
Zhang Yuan was overjoyed!
Then he remembered that it was this piece of white jade that had saved him!
After a brief moment of joy, Zhang Yuan fell into deep thought again.
The blood-red numbers in the sky are still there, only now they've changed to 5!
In other words, he's still here! Still inside the ruins!
He took out the white jade and began to examine it.
The jade stone was small, about the same size as the safety buckles commonly found on the market, and its texture looked very ordinary; it looked like just a regular stone.
But this ordinary stone saved him at a crucial moment!
Moreover, every time Zhang Yuan held the jade in his hand, his mood would inexplicably calm down, and he would even have an urge to cultivate in peace.
This white jade stone seems to help him to better cultivate and enter a meditative state.
Holding the white jade stone for a while, Zhang Yuan's negative emotions about being trapped in the ruins and unable to get out temporarily dissipated. His heart calmed down again, and he simply sat up to cultivate and repair his depleted true energy.
Soon, Zhang Yuan entered a wondrous meditative state of being free from self and things.
Perhaps because of the jade, during this meditation, Zhang Yuan's soul sensed some information about the ruins and the jade.
Many ancient and mysterious images flash through my mind one by one.
During his long cultivation journey, the owner of the ruins, Turtle Immortal, accidentally obtained a mysterious stone that can help cultivators calm their minds, improve their comprehension, and comprehend profound techniques and Dao formations!
This is the cave dwelling left behind by a spirit tortoise at the Yang God Realm!
The Spirit Turtle Immortal was skilled in formations, and powerful formations were set up at the Spirit Turtle Ruins.
...
When Zhang Yuan entered meditation, the white jade stone in his hand rippled with bursts of rosy light, and his soul inexplicably received some information about the Enlightenment Stone and this ruin.
"So this white jade stone is called the Enlightenment Stone!"
What a wonderful baby!
Under the influence of the Enlightenment Stone, Zhang Yuan's soul seemed to resonate with the ruins of the Turtle Immortal Cave, and his soul gradually received more fragments of information remaining in the ruins.
Although this information is incomplete, Zhang Yuan has already deciphered much important information about the site from it.
Information about the Enlightenment Stone, the ruins, and the Turtle Immortal.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Yuan's soul received strange information again.
This information is presented directly in visual form.
Zhang Yuan saw the young man in sunglasses trapped in a barrier. The barrier was a hilly terrain, and the young man in sunglasses was desperately punching the barrier, trying to break through and escape, just like Zhang Yuan.
But the barrier remained unmoved. The young man in sunglasses, his eyes bloodshot, produced an extraordinary sword!
That sword was incredibly sharp, and a crescent moon was engraved where the blade met the hilt!
The young man in sunglasses, wielding a sword, suddenly became much more imposing. He slashed at the invisible barrier with the sword, unleashing a frenzied barrage of attacks, but still couldn't make any difference to the barrier!
Zhang Yuan witnessed this process from God's perspective, then the scene cut off and switched to the eagle demon.
In the forest, an eagle demon was being chased by a giant spider!
The eagle demon had a lot of its feathers knocked off by the gray spider, and it was almost a bald eagle.
It frantically dodged and weaved through the forest, sometimes hiding behind rocks, sometimes in the treetops, playing hide-and-seek with the giant gray spider, trying to escape its predation...
That gray spider was exactly the same as the one Zhang Yuan had encountered.
Zhang Yuan, seeing this scene, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, wondering if the eagle demon could escape the pursuit.
The scene from the eagle demon's side appeared for a few seconds and then cut off. A new scene appeared in his soul, where he saw the rogue cultivator who had entered the ruins with him being pulled into another barrier!
But those two nameless rogue cultivators weren't as lucky as Zhang Yuan and the young man in sunglasses.
They fell into a barrier completely different from Zhang Yuan's. As soon as the two rogue cultivators entered the barrier, countless bolts of lightning struck down from above.
The thunderbolts can be as thick as half a meter wide or as thin as several centimeters!
The two poor rogue cultivators had barely landed in the barrier when they were blasted into nothingness by a sudden bolt of lightning that struck from within the barrier!
...
Then, the image disappeared, and the world seemed to return to silence.
