Chapter 119 What do you want to get?

The portal rippled outwards like waves, and Zhuang Yu felt a familiar pull, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Without hesitation, he pulled Wang Yao inside, and the surrounding light instantly changed, as if they had entered a colorful kaleidoscope.

The next moment, they found themselves in a strange space shrouded in mist.

A light mist lingered around me, carrying a cool and moist feeling, and a strange fragrance filled the air, making me feel refreshed and relaxed.

Zhuang Yu held Wang Yao's hand tightly, and a warm current flowed from his palm to Wang Yao's hand, dispelling the slight unease in her heart.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." His gentle voice rang in Wang Yao's ears, like a solid barrier protecting her.

Feeling the warmth in her palm, Wang Yao felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She grasped Zhuang Yu's hand in return and nodded gently.

Zhuang Yu closed his eyes and sensed the spiritual energy flowing through the space.

He knew every ripple and every corner of this place intimately.

Soon, he sensed a hidden spiritual energy fluctuation that was more concentrated and purer than other places.

He opened his eyes and pulled Wang Yao toward the direction from which the fluctuations came.

As they parted the layers of mist, a hidden cave appeared before them.

The entrance to the cave was concealed by a thin layer of spiritual energy barrier, and it was easy to miss if one did not look carefully.

Zhuang Yu raised his hand and gently touched the barrier. The barrier rippled like water, revealing an entrance that could only accommodate one person at a time.

Upon entering the cave, an ancient and mysterious aura immediately greets you.

The cave is not very spacious. In the center, there is a stone platform with an old-fashioned book on it.

The book cover had no words on it, but it emanated a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation, which made Zhuang Yu feel a chill.

He carefully picked up the book, and a warm, smooth sensation came from his fingertips, as if the book had a life of its own.

He turned to the first page, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy flowed into his body, making him feel refreshed.

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes; this was actually a long-lost martial arts manual!

"Yao'er, look!" Zhuang Yu excitedly handed the manual to Wang Yao, his face beaming with joy.

Wang Yao took the manual and carefully examined it. "Congratulations, young master, on acquiring such a precious treasure!"

Zhuang Yu happily put away the manual and was about to continue exploring this mysterious space when suddenly...

"Young master, be careful!" Wang Yao exclaimed.

A chilling aura instantly enveloped the cave. A shadow beast, entirely black, leaped down from the shadows of the cave ceiling. It resembled a cheetah, but had a pair of scarlet eyes that gleamed with a terrifying, eerie light.

It landed silently, its sharp claws carving deep marks on the ground and making a screeching sound.

The Shadow Beast regarded Zhuang Yu as an intruder and let out a low roar that shook the cave walls.

It flashed and pounced on Zhuang Yu with lightning speed, bringing with it a strong, fishy smell.

Zhuang Yu felt a powerful sense of oppression, and a determination to fight surged within him.

"Yao'er, step back!" Zhuang Yu said in a deep voice, protecting Wang Yao behind him.

He quickly formed a hand seal, and a golden light screen unfolded in front of him, forming a solid defensive barrier.

"Boom!" The Shadow Beast's claws slammed into the light screen, producing a deafening roar.

Golden light splashed everywhere, and the entire cave trembled violently.

Wang Yao hid behind Zhuang Yu worriedly, clutching his clothes tightly, her eyes filled with tension.

Taking advantage of the moment when the Shadow Beast was attacking, Zhuang Yu quickly mobilized his spiritual power, condensed a dazzling white light in his hand, and slashed fiercely at the Shadow Beast.

"Break!" he shouted, and the white light transformed into a sharp sword aura, slicing through the air and striking the Shadow Beast with a sharp whistling sound.

The Shadow Beast nimbly twisted its body, narrowly dodging Zhuang Yu's attack.

The sword energy grazed its body, leaving a deep trench in the ground.

It let out an angry roar and pounced on Zhuang Yu again, faster and more ferocious than before.

Inside the cave, two figures clashed repeatedly, and the shockwaves generated by the collision of their spiritual energies distorted the surrounding space.

Wang Yao's palms were sweating with nervousness. She could feel the intensity of the battle and silently prayed for Zhuang Yu.

Zhuang Yu constantly changed his attack methods, sometimes using sword energy to attack, and sometimes using palm techniques for close combat, gradually gaining the upper hand.

Although the Shadow Beast was extremely fast and had great attack power, it gradually showed signs of fatigue under Zhuang Yu's skillful response.

Zhuang Yu"

Zhuang Yu slowly raised his hands, chanting incantations. Obscure and difficult-to-understand spells came out of his mouth, and the surrounding spiritual energy began to fluctuate violently, as if summoned by some kind of force, and rushed wildly into his palms.

A rune radiating dazzling golden light gradually took shape in his hand. The rune was complex and mysterious, exuding an ancient and powerful aura.

"Golden Solar Power Spell!" Zhuang Yu roared, and the rune in his hand instantly flew out, transforming into a golden beam of light that, with destructive power, slammed into the Shadow Beast.

"Awooo—" The Shadow Beast let out a shrill scream. Its massive body was shrouded in golden light, as if it were being crushed by a mountain, unable to move.

Amidst the golden light, arcs of electricity crackled and popped, charring the Shadow Beast's black fur and filling the air with a burnt stench.

The golden light lasted for several seconds before slowly dissipating, and the Shadow Beast reappeared in front of Zhuang Yu and Wang Yao. Its body was charred black and its aura was weak. The once ferocious beast struggled to stand up, but found that its limbs had lost all feeling, and it could only lie helplessly on the ground, emitting a low whimper.

Zhuang Yu looked at the Shadow Beast lying on the ground, a confident smile appearing on his lips.

He dusted himself off, turned around to look at Wang Yao behind him, and gently patted her head.

"It's alright now," he said softly, his tone filled with a hint of doting affection.

Wang Yao's cheeks flushed slightly. She nodded gently, moved closer to Zhuang Yu, and nestled beside him, feeling the warmth and sense of security emanating from him.

An ambiguous atmosphere filled the air between the two, and the surrounding light made the scene appear exceptionally warm.

Zhuang Yu's gaze swept across this strange space, and his eyes became profound.

"Yao'er, let's go." He took Wang Yao's hand and walked deeper into the cave. "This place seems to have many more secrets waiting for us to explore..."

Zhuang Yu did not press his advantage. He concealed his aura and calmly looked at the dying Shadow Beast.

Although this beast is fierce, it is not very intelligent and is not to be feared.

He turned to Wang Yao and said, "Let's go take a look elsewhere first."

Wang Yao was slightly taken aback. She had thought that Zhuang Yu would eliminate the threat completely, but she did not expect him to give up.

But she didn't ask any more questions, she just nodded obediently and followed behind Zhuang Yu.

Zhuang Yu walked straight into the depths of the cave, where a dark passage led to an unknown area.

An ancient and mysterious aura emanated from the depths of the passage, piquing Zhuang Yu's curiosity.

He grasped Wang Yao's hand, and the two stepped into the passage together.

Strange runes were carved on the stone walls on both sides of the passage, shimmering with a faint light that illuminated the road ahead.

A faint, damp scent filled the air, mixed with the fragrance of earth, making one feel as if they were deep underground.

The passageway meandered and twisted, like a giant maze.

Zhuang Yu did not rush to find the exit, but relied on his keen intuition to navigate through the maze.

He seemed to know the terrain like the back of his hand, and he walked with firmness and composure with every step.

Wang Yao followed closely behind Zhuang Yu. She was somewhat puzzled by Zhuang Yu's actions, but her heart was full of trust.

She knew that Zhuang Yu must have his own plans.

At the end of the passage, there was an open space.

This is no longer a narrow passage, but a huge underground plaza.

In the center of the square stands a towering stone monument, covered with densely packed characters, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

Zhuang Yu walked up to the stone tablet and carefully observed the inscription on it.

He had never seen these words before, yet they felt strangely familiar, as if he had seen them in a dream.

He reached out and gently stroked the surface of the stone tablet, feeling a warm, smooth sensation from his fingertips.

Just as Zhuang Yu was immersed in the inscription on the stone tablet, a powerful aura suddenly descended, enveloping the entire square.

This aura was as vast as the sea and unfathomable, giving Zhuang Yu an inexplicable sense of oppression.

He suddenly looked up and saw a tall figure appear at the other end of the square.

The figure was shrouded in golden light, obscuring its features, but the powerful aura it exuded sent a chill down Zhuang Yu's spine.

"Who goes there?" A deep and authoritative voice echoed across the square, as loud as thunder.

Zhuang Yu's heart skipped a beat. He gripped Wang Yao's hand tightly, his gaze fixed firmly on the figure shrouded in golden light, and said in a deep voice, "I am Zhuang Yu. May I ask your honorable name, senior?" An invisible pressure emanated from that figure, as if it would crush Zhuang Yu.

Zhuang Yu felt his breathing become difficult, but he still straightened his back and stared at the figure without fear.

The golden light slowly dissipated, and an old man dressed in a golden robe appeared before Zhuang Yu.

The old man had white hair but a youthful face, and his eyes were piercing, exuding an extraordinary aura.

He looked at Zhuang Yu, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, and slowly said, "You actually managed to get this far. It seems you are no ordinary person..." He paused, then continued, "I am the guardian of this place. What do you desire?"

Zhuang Yu took a deep breath to calm his emotions and said in a deep voice, "This junior only wishes to..." Before he could finish speaking, the guardian interrupted him, "This is not a place you can trespass at will. Leave immediately!"

Zhuang Yu's expression changed, and he was about to speak when he saw the guardian raise his hand and wave it, instantly enveloping him and Wang Yao with a powerful force...
