Mo Wenjie looked excitedly at the people in front of him——Huang Ling'er, Jiang Yurou, Xiao Yawen, Ding Yan, Tuobayingying, Qin Xiaodie, Cao Chunling, and the mysterious and noble Golden Silk Fairy. His eyes twinkled with anticipation and confidence as he loudly said, "Ladies and gentlemen, in my opinion, it is truly a great fortune for us to have the opportunity to comprehend the legendary Crystal Power. Imagine how our strength will undoubtedly be greatly enhanced once we successfully understand its mysteries!" As he spoke, he waved his arms as if already envisioning the splendid scene of everyone's rapid improvement in strength.
However, the Golden Silk Fairy gently shook her head and frowned slightly, saying, "Master Mo, while the Crystal Power is indeed tempting, it is also full of dangers. There are rumors that it contains ancient restrictions that can backfire if not handled carefully." Mo Wenjie was taken aback after hearing this and his smile slightly froze. The others heard these words and also showed concerned expressions on their faces.
At that moment, Xiao Yawen, who was usually calm, spoke up: "Even so, this is a rare opportunity. If we give up just because we're afraid of the risks, we will never be able to break through our own limitations. However, Golden Silk Fairy is also right; we cannot act recklessly." Everyone nodded in agreement.
After a moment of contemplation, Mo Wenjie's eyes regained their determination: "Xiao Yawen is right. Let us first carefully investigate the situation around this crystal, make a comprehensive plan, and then try to perceive its power. What do you think?" The group looked at each other and chorused in response: "Alright!" With both tension and hope in their hearts, they slowly approached the crystal, preparing to embark on this journey of exploration filled with unknown challenges.
As they approached the crystal, a powerful spiritual energy wave hit them. Mo Wenjie took the lead, releasing his spiritual awareness to probe, finding intricate symbols and arrays surrounding the crystal. Xiao Yawen crouched down, feeling the flow of spiritual energy with his fingertips. Suddenly, he shouted: "Be careful! There are hidden attack array lines here." Everyone hurriedly stopped in their tracks.
The Golden Silk Fairy waved the golden silk ribbon in her hand, and a series of golden lights were sprayed out. When it touched the arrays, sparks flew everywhere. She said, "This array is very ancient, and it is not easy to break through." Everyone gathered together to discuss a solution. Huang Ling'er proposed using her own spiritual energy to test the weak points, while others were responsible for protection. This suggestion was approved by everyone.
Huang Ling'er cautiously channeled her spiritual energy to a seemingly weak corner of the array, and as soon as the spiritual energy touched it, a brilliant light flashed out.
At this critical moment, everyone united their efforts to resist the impact of the tremendous force. Each person bit their teeth and exerted all their strength, continuously sending out their power. Mo Wenjie, in particular, dared not be complacent at this time; he quickly formed hand seals with both hands, muttering incantations as he unleashed his most powerful defensive spell.
In an instant, a brilliant light shot out from Mo Wenjie's body, as bright and dazzling as the sun. This powerful light collided forcefully with the incoming attack, creating an ear-piercing loudness. For a moment, the entire space was shrouded in light, making it nearly impossible to open one's eyes.
As the bright light gradually dissipated, everyone was overjoyed to find that the originally unbreakable array lines had developed a tiny crack! Although it was only a small gap, for them who had been trapped for a long time, it was undoubtedly a huge breakthrough and hope. The faces of everyone were flushed with unrestrained joy, excitement overflowing from their expressions.
"Great! We've finally found the direction to break the restriction!" Huang Ling'er exclaimed excitedly.
So, everyone continued to concentrate and strive hard to break the remaining arrays. Every attack was like shocking the heavens, making the already unstable array lines even more fragile.
With the passage of time, they got closer and closer to the mysterious crystal. The alluring glow emanating from the crystal seemed to be summoning everyone to explore its endless mysteries. At this moment, the desire of everyone's heart to comprehend the power of the crystal became more intense than ever before.
This longing was like a blazing fire, fiery and intense. It seemed like an irresistible force, tightly grasping Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er's heartstrings, driving them to move forward unhesitantly and fearlessly towards their set target.
This fire burned intensely in their hearts, continuously releasing boundless heat energy, igniting their courage and determination even more vigorously. Regardless of how rugged and treacherous the road ahead was, regardless of how many difficulties and obstacles they encountered, they did not hesitate to retreat; they charged forward bravely.
Driven by this powerful force, Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er forgot all their fears and hesitations, their eyes fixed only on the radiant goal. They raced past like arrows from a bow, leaving a trail of dust in their wake as they moved at lightning speed. No matter how much sweat drenched their clothes or how exhaustion invaded their bodies, they would not slow down; they were determined to reach the shore of victory.
Just as they were about to touch the crystal, it suddenly burst out a strong suction force. Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er had no warning, being fiercely sucked into the interior of the crystal. Everyone shouted in alarm, wanting to save them but it was too late.
Entering the interior of the crystal, Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er found themselves in a strange space surrounded by shimmering spiritual symbols. Before they could react, various illusions appeared, which were trials left by cultivators who had perished here.
They must pass these trials to truly approach the core of the crystal. Mo Wenjie clenched his fists, and Huang Ling'er took a deep breath, fighting side by side. Facing various powerful attack illusions, they overcame crises through their past cultivation experience and mutual understanding.
Meanwhile, the others outside were not idle. The Golden Silk Fairy led everyone in performing a combined ritual to break through the exterior of the crystal and rescue the two.
After a long and arduous journey, Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er, two people who had braved countless hardships and trials, finally broke through all the difficult trial cards and arrived at the place where the mysterious and desirable crystal core was located.
At the same time, the numerous people who had been anxiously waiting and constantly trying to break through the outer wall also succeeded in doing so thanks to their persistent determination and teamwork. A surge of people like a tidal wave poured in, all flooding into this place filled with magical power, sharing this rare moment of comprehending the crystal's power together.
As the crowd stepped into the area enveloped by the power of the crystal, they immediately felt a strong and pure energy wash over them. This energy seemed to have life, actively permeating into each person's body and nourishing their meridians and dantians. With the continuous injection of the crystal's power into their bodies, they could clearly feel that their strength was rising at a visible speed. The martial arts bottleneck that had been stuck in place suddenly showed signs of loosening; some difficulties that had been hard to break through for years now seemed no longer as distant.
Under the influence of this mysterious crystal power, some people radiated a brilliant glow like brilliant stars; others exhaled a more imposing aura, with every move exuding incredible might; and others who had previously unremarkable techniques now had their powers exponentially increased when cast, leaving everyone in awe.
At this moment, the entire scene was like an ocean of joy, with noise and commotion ever-present, a bustling spectacle that was hard to look away from. Every person present, be they the elderly with white hair, the vigorous youth, or the innocent child, their faces were lit up with radiant smiles that were filled with unbridled excitement and emotion.
Particularly for Mo Wenjie and others, their joy was palpable. They deeply knew that the wonderful experience they had encountered was not an accident, but a precious gift from heaven. This encounter was like a magical key that would unlock a door to the unknown world, leading them to a new realm.
Beyond this door, waiting for them would be unprecedented great enhancement. This improvement was not limited to the growth of cultivation level, but also reflected in the refining of temperament, the broadening of horizons, and the understanding of the Tao of heaven and earth.
With this rare opportunity, Mo Wenjie, Huang Ling'er, and others have the confidence to travel further and further along the long and arduous path of cultivation, continuously scaling peaks until they reach the pinnacle that countless people aspire to.
While everyone was immersed in the joy of improving their strength, the crystal suddenly shook violently. Mo Wenjie's brow furrowed, a sense of impending doom rising in him. Following that, the crystal released a blinding light, within which ancient symbols could be faintly seen flashing.
The Golden Silk Fairy was shocked: "This is the crystal's expulsion force. It seems we have triggered some kind of limitation of the crystal." Everyone panicked, wanting to resist but found their powers to be powerless against this force.
Mo Wenjie gritted his teeth and shouted, "Everyone, hold hands and form a magical array. Maybe we can withstand it for a while." Everyone quickly followed suit, working together to form a protective shield. However, the expulsion force of the crystal grew stronger and stronger, causing cracks to appear in the protective shield.
In their moment of despair, Mo Wenjie recalled a realization from one of the trials and quickly guided everyone to adjust their spiritual energy flow. A miracle occurred as the protective shield stabilized and gradually pushed back against the expulsion force. Finally, the crystal ceased its expulsion, and everyone sighed with relief, knowing that after this experience, they had gained a deeper respect for cultivation, and their legendary journey was just beginning.
Mo Wenjie, Huang Ling'er, Jiang Yurou, Xiao Wenwen, Ding Yan, Tuo Yingying, Qin Xiaodie, Cao Chunling and the Golden Silk Fairy all deeply realized that their strength was slowly increasing!
