86: Fantasy

The ruins here were vast. As Lin Feng delved deeper, he found the surrounding environment becoming more eerie and terrifying. A decaying aura permeated the air, as if no one had set foot here for a very long time.

Lin Feng proceeded cautiously, fearing to disturb some terrifying existence. Relying on his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, he could barely discern the path ahead, but the surroundings remained pitch black.

Suddenly, a strange laugh came from ahead, startling Lin Feng. He immediately stopped, vigilantly observing his surroundings. However, the laughter seemed to come from all directions, making its source impossible to pinpoint.

Lin Feng knew that this place was full of unknown dangers and he had to deal with them carefully. He quietly activated the spiritual power within him, ready to respond to any potential crisis at any moment.

Just then, a withered, skeletal hand suddenly reached out from the darkness and grabbed Lin Feng's ankle. Lin Feng was greatly alarmed and struggled to break free, but the hand seemed to possess immense strength. With Lin Feng's Body Refining second-stage cultivation, he was surprisingly unable to break free for a moment.

Lin Feng was secretly anxious, knowing that some terrifying existence must be hidden in the darkness.

He struggled again, while simultaneously summoning his Spirit Rhino Shield to block in front of him, just in case. Finally, with Lin Feng's unremitting efforts, the withered, skeletal hand finally released his ankle.

Lin Feng seized the opportunity to break free and quickly retreated a few steps, vigilantly looking ahead. However, there was no longer any movement in the darkness, as if everything just now had been merely an Illusion.

Lin Feng knew that this place was full of unknown dangers and he could not let his guard down. He once again activated the spiritual power within him, ready to respond to any potential crisis. At the same time, relying on his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, he carefully observed the path ahead, trying to find clues leading to the depths of the ruins.

Just then, a faint light suddenly came from ahead, illuminating an area in front. Lin Feng's heart stirred, and he immediately walked towards the direction from which the light came.

He proceeded cautiously, fearing to disturb some terrifying existence. Finally, he arrived at the area illuminated by the light. What he saw ahead was a dilapidated mountain gate.

On top of the mountain gate, some ancient runes and patterns were faintly visible, exuding a sense of antiquity and mystery. Lin Feng knew that this mountain gate was likely the key to entering the depths of the ruins.

He carefully observed the mountain gate, trying to find clues to enter. However, the mountain gate seemed to be sealed by some powerful force; no matter how he tried, he could not open it.

Lin Feng was secretly anxious, knowing he couldn't waste time here. He had to quickly find a way to enter the depths of the ruins, otherwise he might miss the treasures inside.

Just then, he suddenly remembered the Restriction that Lan Yudao had mentioned earlier. Perhaps this mountain gate was also sealed by some Restriction, and he needed to find the corresponding rune array to open it.

Lin Feng immediately began searching around. Finally, in a hidden corner, he discovered a rune array similar to the runes on the mountain gate.

Without thinking further, he immediately activated the spiritual power within him to activate the rune array. A flash of light appeared, and the mountain gate slowly opened.

Lin Feng was overjoyed and immediately stepped inside. What he saw was a long passage, lined with ancient runes and patterns, exuding a mysterious aura.

Lin Feng knew that this passage was likely the only way to the depths of the ruins. He proceeded cautiously, fearing to disturb some terrifying existence.

The passage was pitch black, with only the occasional faint light from ahead illuminating the path. Lin Feng, relying on his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, could barely make out the path ahead and the surrounding scenery.

He walked forward, vigilantly observing his surroundings. Suddenly, a cold aura came from ahead, startling Lin Feng. He immediately stopped and looked ahead cautiously.

A figure attacked Lin Feng; it was a Cultivator identical to him, with an aura and appearance exactly like his, as if he were his twin brother.

Lin Feng was greatly alarmed; he had never seen such a bizarre thing. He immediately activated the spiritual power within him, preparing to counter this sudden attack. However, the Cultivator's attack seemed to be able to discern his movements; no matter how he dodged, he could not avoid the opponent's attacks.

Lin Feng was secretly anxious. If this continued, he would eventually lose. He had to find a weakness in this Cultivator to have a chance at survival.

Just then, he suddenly remembered the Illusion that Lan Yudao had mentioned earlier. These ruins were full of unknown dangers; perhaps this Cultivator was just a part of an Illusion, not a real existence.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng's heart stirred. He immediately closed his eyes, no longer looking at the Cultivator, but instead, relying on his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, he sensed the surrounding Qi and movements.

Indeed, when he closed his eyes, the Cultivator's attacks became sluggish. Lin Feng seized the opportunity, suddenly opened his eyes, and unleashed his Crimson Seal, smashing it towards the Cultivator.

With a loud bang, the Cultivator's figure vanished under the Crimson Seal. Lin Feng was overjoyed at the sight, knowing he had guessed correctly; this Cultivator was indeed just a part of an Illusion.

He continued forward, the cold Qi in the passage growing thicker. He was now close to the depths of the ruins and had to be even more careful.

Finally, he reached the end of the passage. What he saw ahead was a massive stone door, covered with ancient runes and patterns, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura.

Lin Feng knew that beyond this stone door lay the true core of the ruins. He took a deep breath, activated the spiritual power within him, preparing to open this stone door.

However, just then, a powerful oppressive force suddenly came from behind the stone door. Lin Feng was startled; this oppressive force was something he absolutely could not withstand. He had to retreat immediately, otherwise, once enveloped by the oppressive force, he would surely suffer severe injuries.

He turned and ran, the cold Qi in the passage seeming to grow even thicker at that moment. Lin Feng dared not hesitate for a moment; he ran with all his might until he was far from the stone door before he dared to stop.

He leaned against the wall, panting heavily. He knew that he still had some distance to go before reaching the true core of the ruins, and he had to find other methods to enter it.

Just then, he suddenly remembered the Restriction and rune array that Lan Yudao had mentioned earlier. Perhaps this stone door also required a corresponding rune array to open it.

Lin Feng immediately began searching around. Finally, in a hidden corner, he discovered a rune array similar to the runes on the stone door.

Without thinking further, he immediately activated the spiritual power within him to activate the rune array. A flash of light appeared, and the massive stone door slowly opened.

Lin Feng was overjoyed, knowing that he had finally found a way to enter the true core of the ruins. He stepped inside, only to see a vast space, filled with ancient runes and patterns, like a mysterious world.

Lin Feng knew that this was the true core of the ruins. He proceeded cautiously, fearing to disturb some terrifying existence. However, no matter how careful he was, he could not avoid encountering the dangers here.

Lin Feng gradually delved deeper into these ruins. What surprised Lin Feng was that there was no danger here at all; instead, it exuded an aura of peace everywhere, completely different from the dangers he had experienced before.

He was secretly vigilant, knowing that some unknown danger must be hidden here, otherwise such an abnormal phenomenon would not be possible.
