Seven Mysterious Spaces: My Rise to Power in the Cultivation World

Chapter 129 You are finally here



Chapter 129 You are finally here

Zhuang Yu stood before the eerily glowing barrier, his brows furrowed, as if facing an unfathomable mystery.

He reached out and gently touched the light barrier with his fingertips. The icy touch was like touching a piece of ancient ice.

A suffocating sense of oppression filled the air, and a faint hum of electricity lingered in his ears, as if mocking his powerlessness.

Wang Yao stood behind him, breathing very softly, afraid of disturbing him.

She could feel the tense atmosphere in the air, like the calm before a storm, which made her uneasy.

She clenched her fists tightly, silently encouraging Zhuang Yu, and whispered, "Young Master, don't worry." Her voice was gentle yet firm, like a clear spring, slowly flowing into Zhuang Yu's heart.

Zhuang Yu did not respond; his entire attention was focused on the barrier.

He closed his eyes, his mind racing through everything he had experienced, trying to find a way out.

Those complex runes, those seemingly unrelated clues, were like a tangled mess, tightly intertwined.

He tried repeatedly, using his spiritual power to touch it and his divine sense to explore it, but each time it was like a stone sinking into the sea, without any response.

Time ticked by, and the air around us grew increasingly oppressive, as if the entire space was on the verge of collapse.

Zhuang Yu felt a powerful force approaching him, as if an invisible hand was trying to devour him completely.

He took a deep breath, opened his eyes again, and his gaze became sharper and more determined than ever before.

He stretched out his finger and touched the restriction again. This time, he was not blindly trying, but instead infusing his spiritual power into it, attempting to resonate with the restriction.

Suddenly, he felt a slight vibration coming from the barrier, as if it were responding to his call.

He was overjoyed, knowing that he had finally found a breakthrough.

He slowly channeled his spiritual power into the barrier, carefully exploring along the patterns of the runes.

Finally, he discovered a tiny flaw, like a pinhole, hidden within the complex patterns.

Without hesitation, he concentrated his spiritual power here and thrust it forcefully.

"Crack!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out, as if breaking the long-standing silence.

That seemingly indestructible barrier crumbled instantly, like a thin sheet of paper pierced by a sharp blade.

The gate to the treasure area slowly opened, and a rich spiritual energy rushed out, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.

A relieved smile finally appeared on Zhuang Yu's face, and his eyes shone with excitement, as if he could see the dawn of victory.

"Young Master, you are truly amazing!" Wang Yao exclaimed excitedly, her voice filled with admiration and joy.

Zhuang Yu simply smiled faintly. He did not respond to Wang Yao's praise, but his eyes became deep and wary.

He slowly stepped through the gate to the treasure area.

"Be careful..." He only managed to utter two words before stopping abruptly, his gaze freezing instantly.

A powerful spiritual pressure rushed towards him, and Zhuang Yu felt a chilling sensation as soon as he stepped into the treasure area.

A tall figure slowly rose from the pile of treasures, radiating golden light, like a god descending to earth.

The guardian of the spatial treasure has appeared!

Without the slightest hesitation, its enormous palm, imbued with violent spiritual power, slammed down fiercely towards Zhuang Yu.

Zhuang Yu's pupils contracted, and he shifted his feet lightly, his figure flashing like a ghost, barely dodging the attack.

The guardian's hand missed its target and slammed into the ground with a deafening thud.

The mountains of treasures surrounding them shook violently under the powerful fluctuations of spiritual energy, and glittering magical artifacts and crystal-clear spirit stones rained down like raindrops.

"Hmph, a mere trick." Zhuang Yu sneered, his figure flashing continuously in the treasure area, as agile and graceful as a dragon playing with a phoenix.

Instead of confronting the guardian head-on, he used the complex terrain of the treasure area to constantly evade the guardian's attacks.

Although the guardian is powerful, it is somewhat clumsy in its movements, and its attacks often miss in the narrow treasure area.

Zhuang Yu's eyes sharpened, and a plan came to mind.

While dodging the guardians' attacks, he secretly set up traps.

He moved some seemingly ordinary treasures, concealed mechanisms within them, and placed several powerful talismans in key locations.

The guardian roared repeatedly, never expecting this seemingly weak human to be so cunning.

It frantically waved its arms, trying to force Zhuang Yu out.

However, the more anxious it becomes, the more likely it is to reveal its weaknesses.

Finally, after a fierce attack, the guardian lost his footing and fell into the trap set by Zhuang Yu.

"Kakaka!"

A mechanical turning sound rang out, the ground suddenly cracked open, and the guardian's massive body instantly sank into it.

Immediately afterwards, several dazzling runic lights shone, trapping the guardian firmly within.

"It's over." Zhuang Yu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile.

He slowly walked to the edge of the trap, looked down at the trapped guardian, and said calmly, "You rely too much on brute force. A real battle is a contest of wits."

Suddenly, Zhuang Yu's expression changed, and he looked up sharply into the depths of the treasure area, saying in a deep voice, "Who goes there?!"

Wang Yao's heart was in her throat. She gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, and her palms were sweaty.

The young master's battle just now amazed her; his fluid movements and his wisdom in controlling the overall situation deeply impressed her.

But she was more worried about the young master's safety. Although the guardian was trapped, the powerful aura it emitted was still terrifying.

Zhuang Yu noticed Wang Yao's worry, so he turned around and gave her a reassuring look.

"Don't worry, it's alright." His voice was calm and firm, as if it possessed a magical power that instantly soothed Wang Yao's unease.

Zhuang Yu turned around, his gaze once again locking onto the trapped guardian.

He won't let this opportunity slip by.

Spiritual energy surged in his hands, transforming into sharp sword energies that roared towards the guardian.

The guardian roared repeatedly, struggling desperately to break free of its restraints, but the power of the runes was unbreakable, and all its efforts were in vain.

The sword energy poured down like a torrential rain, and the golden light on the guardian gradually dimmed, its aura growing weaker and weaker.

Finally, with a piercing scream, the guardian's massive body crashed to the ground, turning into specks of golden light and dissipating into the air.

Zhuang Yu stood still, radiating a powerful aura, like a triumphant hero.

He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, feeling the abundant spiritual energy within his body, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

He stepped deeper into the treasure area, where an even more powerful force was calling to him.

The air was filled with a rich spiritual energy, which seemed to have solidified into a tangible substance, making it difficult to breathe.

The magnificent treasures were piled up like mountains, shimmering with dazzling light.

Various rare and precious treasures exude a captivating aura.

Suddenly, he stopped and his gaze fell on an object in front of him that was shimmering with a strange light.

"This is..." he murmured to himself.

An aged voice came from the depths of the treasure: "Young man, you have finally arrived..." Zhuang Yu took a deep breath and walked slowly toward the core of the treasure area with firm steps.

With each step he took, the surrounding spiritual energy seemed to be drawn to him, gathering around him to form a small vortex.

The rare treasures ahead shimmered with dazzling light, their various colors intertwined, creating a visual feast.

The air was filled with a delightful fragrance, as if it were a mixture of various medicinal herbs, making one feel completely refreshed.

He finally arrived at a huge stone platform, on which sat an object emitting a strange light.

It was a small, transparent jade box containing a dazzling gemstone that emitted a warm and powerful light.

Zhuang Yu's heart raced involuntarily. He reached out and gently touched the jade box.

A warm current instantly surged from the jade box, spreading along his fingers to his entire body, as if countless spiritual energies were surging within him.

"This is... the source of space's power?" Zhuang Yu murmured to himself, filled with surprise and excitement.

He felt a powerful force surging within him, as if he controlled the power of the entire world.

His spiritual power rapidly increased, breaking through one bottleneck after another. The light of his nascent soul became even more dazzling, and he was filled with unparalleled confidence and power.

Just then, a subtle tremor suddenly came from the depths of space, as if some ancient power was awakening.

Zhuang Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately became alert, scanning his surroundings.

He sensed a suffocating atmosphere in the air, as if something ominous was about to happen.

He clenched his fists, his body radiating a powerful aura, ready to deal with any potential crisis.

"Young man, you've finally arrived..." The aged voice came again, carrying a hint of mystery and authority.

Zhuang Yu frowned, looking around warily, trying to find the source of the sound.

However, just as he was preparing to take further action, the space suddenly trembled violently, and a huge crack spread from the ground, like a rift in time, revealing a suffocating darkness.

Zhuang Yu was filled with vigilance. He clenched his fists and looked ahead with a determined gaze.
