Li Rui They were already on the brink of collapse and had no choice; this Crystal Beast was truly tough and resilient, no matter how hard they hit it, it just wouldn't die, instead leading to their own demise. Just when Li Rui and the others were about to give up, the Lightning Weasel showed signs of abnormality. Everyone turned to see the Lightning Weasel glowing purple-blue, panting heavily; it seemed ready to unleash a powerful move.
Everyone quickly stepped back. If they were caught in this attack, it would truly be the end for them.
Suddenly, a streak of purple-blue lightning appeared above the Lightning Weasel's head, rapidly growing larger. The sound of lightning clashing grew louder, and the Crystal Beast took a step back, seemingly sensing the danger of this move. However, it quickly stopped again, leaving Li Rui and the others puzzled.
If the Lightning Weasel's ultimate move could defeat the Crystal Beast, then Li Rui and his companions would have survived successfully. But if it couldn't defeat it, they would have to leave their fate to chance. Li Rui silently prayed, growing more anxious with each passing moment until he broke into a cold sweat.
“Zila!”
With that sound, the long-gathered Purple Thunder shot towards the Crystal Beast, without any tricks—just pure speed. In the blink of an eye, it was right in front of the Crystal Beast, leaving it no chance to escape.
As soon as the Purple Thunder collided with the Crystal Beast, it instantly expanded several times in size, followed by the Crystal Beast being sent flying, a trace of blood oozing from its mouth.
Seeing this scene, Li Rui didn't care whether the Crystal Beast was dead or alive; he shouted, “Run!” and immediately dashed out, fearing that the Crystal Beast might awaken again. The others followed suit and ran out with Li Rui, except for Old Monster.
Using Purple Thunder was a huge drain on the Lightning Weasel. As soon as the Purple Thunder disappeared, the Lightning Weasel collapsed from exhaustion and lost its ability to move. Old Monster picked it up and followed after Li Rui and the others.
They ran with all their might out of fear that the Crystal Beast would catch up to them, not even knowing which direction they were heading. They only knew they were moving deeper into the secret realm.
After what felt like an eternity—no one knew exactly how long they had been running—perhaps several hours later, they finally arrived at a grand hall, which was a tomb created by the founder of the Azure Dragon Tomb.
The exterior of this hall was enormous, standing dozens of feet high and wide. Although time had weathered its surface, it still looked magnificent and retained hints of its former grandeur.
The entrance to this hall was massive; if relying on Li Rui and his companions to push it open, they would surely fail. After some thought, everyone decided to search around in this Surroundings, hoping to find some mechanisms. After all, this was created by the person who established the Azure Dragon Tomb, so there must be treasures within. Just thinking about this gave Li Rui and his companions renewed strength to get to work.
Li Rui and the others groped around the surroundings, walking back and forth, looking here and there. After a long while, they still found no clues. Breathing heavily, they sat down on the ground. Li Rui cursed loudly, "This... this can't be true! The things in here are rare and hard to come by, but the funny thing is, we can't even open this door."
Old Monster chuckled and said, "These things are meant to rely on fate. Without fortune, you can't obtain them. Let's rest here today and leave tomorrow."
"Pah! Fortune? I don't believe in that! I can open this door!" Li Rui stood up and walked toward the palace door, stretching his body to loosen up. He placed both hands on the door and was about to push it hard when unexpectedly, the door opened automatically.
"Creak!"
The ancient and heavy door swung open. Li Rui pushed off with his right foot and immediately took a few steps back, fearing there might be some traps. In a place like this, it would be hard to believe there were no traps at all.
Seeing that the palace door had been opened by Li Rui, Old Monster and the others stepped forward a few paces, focusing intently on what was inside the grand hall. Soon, the door was fully opened, revealing an interior that was not as splendid as Li Rui and the others had imagined; instead, it was desolate, filled with cobwebs. There were several large boxes on the ground, and in the center was a pit that seemed to contain some water.
From outside, they couldn't see the details clearly, but Li Rui and the others didn't dare to enter. So they waited in front of the hall. After a long time of silence without anyone speaking, it became very quiet—no sounds at all meant that there were no signs of wind or movement, which indicated that this grand hall was still safe before anyone intruded.
Li Rui stood up and found a few stones from another place before throwing them inside.
"Thud."
The first stone hit one of the boxes, producing a dull sound. This indicated that there was something inside; however, upon closer inspection of the surroundings, it seemed that nothing stirred in the grand hall. Of course, Li Rui and his companions were not impatient people; on the contrary, they were very meticulous.
"Thud~"
The second stone seemed to have landed in the pit in the center, splashing some water. After a while, it appeared that there was still no sound coming from the grand hall.
"Clang!"
The third stone was thrown into the pit in the center of the hall, but this time it emitted a metallic sound.
Li Rui and the others noticed that there was still no response after several attempts. After a moment of calm thought, they decided to enter.
The group huddled closely together, ready to support each other in case of danger. They stepped cautiously into the hall, maneuvering around the large box until they reached the edge of the pit.
This time, they finally saw the true nature of the pit. It was not a pit at all; it was an oval spring with a diameter of several meters. The water inside was crystal clear, and over time, rather than drying up, it had become even clearer, which piqued Li Rui and the others' curiosity about this grand hall even more.
However, where did that metallic sound come from?
They walked around the spring but found no source for the metallic noise. As for the treasure chests, they had not opened them yet; after all, they were hesitant to do so without confirming whether there was any danger. But where could that metallic sound have originated?
Just as Li Rui and the others were puzzled, a whirlpool suddenly formed in the spring. Slowly, gradually, the whirlpool began to spin rapidly. After about a quarter of an hour, a stone platform gradually rose from the center of the spring, and on this platform stood a sword. The sword appeared unremarkable at first glance but exuded an aura of hidden danger.
The smooth blade reflected arcs of light, and the intricate patterns carved on it were astonishing and alluring. The inscription on it indicated that this sword was called "Azure Cloud Sword."
