From a loser to an immortal sage

Chapter 207 Exploring the Immortal Realm: Xiao Yao Gains an Opportunity

A faint golden light rippled, and a sharp pain shot through my fingertips, as if I had been pricked by a needle.

I quickly withdrew my hand, secretly alarmed.

This golden light was indeed extraordinary, containing such powerful energy.

"It seems this is the core of the Immortal Realm." I took a deep breath, my gaze resolute. "No matter what, I must go in and see!"

I tried again to break the restriction using various methods: spiritual energy attacks, magical weapon attacks, talisman arrays...

But all of this was to no avail.

The golden light was like an insurmountable barrier, firmly guarding the garden's secret.

Failure after failure filled me with anxiety.

The air around me seemed to grow heavy, and a dangerous aura permeated the air, making it hard for me to breathe.

Sweat streamed down my face, but I gritted my teeth and refused to give up.

Suddenly, a mist rose from the garden, and countless phantoms appeared within it. These phantoms took on various shapes and forms: some resembled ferocious beasts, some resembled hideous ghosts, and some resembled soldiers wielding sharp blades...

They roared and pounced on me.

I brandished my longsword, shattering the approaching phantoms one by one.

But these phantoms seemed endless, surging up one after another, leaving me exhausted.

"Damn it!" My anger burned. Although these phantoms were just illusions, they contained great power. Each attack made me feel a sharp pain.

I was forced to retreat by the phantom, and I ended up with several wounds on my body.

The oppressive atmosphere enveloped me, making me feel suffocated.

Just when I was about to give up, a voice suddenly rang out:

"Xiao Yao, you're still too weak..."

Black Feather!

It is him again!

He appeared in front of me in a flash, a mocking smile on his lips.

"Give up, Xiao Yao, you are no match for me." Before he finished speaking, a powerful force attacked me.

I hurriedly swung my sword to defend myself, but it felt like I had crashed into a mountain. I was thrown back and crashed heavily to the ground, a metallic taste rising in my mouth.

I struggled to my feet, wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth, and glared at Kuroba.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do?" Kuroba laughed loudly, as if he had heard a funny joke. "Of course, I want to stop you from getting the opportunity here!" As he spoke, he formed a hand seal, and the golden light in the garden suddenly became even more dazzling, and the phantoms became even more ferocious, surging towards me like a tide.

I brandished my longsword, parrying the phantom's attacks, but my strength was constantly being depleted in the garden. I felt my body growing heavier and my movements becoming increasingly sluggish.

Black Feather's attacks became increasingly fierce, each strike carrying earth-shattering power, making me feel immense pressure.

"Give up, Xiao Yao, you can't win." Hei Yu's voice echoed in my ears like a curse.

I gritted my teeth and refused to give up.

I can't lose, I must seize this opportunity!

I endured the excruciating pain and swung my sword again and again, deflecting the attacks from Black Feather and Phantom.

The air around me grew increasingly heavy, and the oppressive atmosphere made me feel suffocated.

I feel like I'm trapped in a giant cage, unable to escape.

My breathing became rapid, and my heart beat faster and faster, as if it were about to explode at any moment.

"Ah!" I roared, concentrating all my strength into the sword and slashing fiercely at Black Feather.

Kuroba sneered and easily dodged my attack.

He approached me step by step, the murderous intent in his eyes growing stronger.

"It's over, Xiao Yao."

I closed my eyes in despair, awaiting death.

Suddenly, I remembered... that jade pendant!

In that critical moment, I remembered the jade pendant I had found in the dilapidated palace!

It was ice-cold all over, with strange patterns engraved on it. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but I felt that it had a special feel to it, so I put it away.

Is it...

I suddenly opened my eyes and, with trembling hands, pulled the jade pendant from my storage bag.

The moment the jade pendant touched his hand, a cool sensation spread throughout his body, and his almost depleted spiritual energy began to recover!

I was overjoyed. Could this be the key to breaking the seal?

Without thinking twice, I raised the jade pendant high above my head, aiming it at the golden light barrier.

The patterns on the jade pendant seemed to come alive, emitting a dazzling light that resonated with the golden light, creating a buzzing sound.

The golden light began to twist and deform, and finally, with a "bang," it vanished without a trace, like glass shattering!

The ban is broken!

I took a deep breath, unable to suppress the excitement in my heart.

The tense atmosphere vanished, replaced by an indescribable excitement.

Kuroba's cold smile froze on his face, his eyes widening in disbelief.

I could even sense the demonic energy around him become chaotic for a moment.

I ignored his shocked expression and didn't rush to find any so-called opportunity.

I have a strong feeling that the secrets of this garden go far beyond this.

Instead of searching blindly, let's unravel this ancient mystery first.

I turned and walked toward the depths of the garden, where there was an ancient altar that had flashed by in the previous illusion.

A mysterious force drew me in, as if guiding my way.

I felt the air around me freeze, as if something was watching me, with a hint of confusion, a hint of...

Awe?

Leave it alone!

A sense of thrill at challenging tradition surged within me, and a confident smile crept onto my lips.

As I approached the altar, I slowly extended my hand...

"What's this……"

The cold touch of the altar sent a shiver down my spine. The moment my fingertips touched the surface, a strange energy surged into my body through my arm.

I felt a tremor in my dantian, as if something was about to burst out of its shell.

At the same time, the ancient runes on the altar lit up, emitting a soft glow that illuminated the entire garden.

The light faded, and I was stunned.

The once empty garden is now full of life!

Various exotic flowers and plants compete for beauty, emitting a refreshing fragrance.

I recognized some of them as the legendary fairy herbs, which are said to have the power to bring the dead back to life!

And that spiritual fruit shimmering with seven-colored light, could it be...?

The legendary seven-colored fairy fruit that can enhance cultivation?

!

My heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of my throat.

I took a deep breath and tried to keep myself calm.

Could this be the opportunity in the Immortal Realm?

!

I carefully put these rare spiritual plants into my pocket, and an indescribable joy welled up in my heart.

Just then, I felt the spiritual energy surging within my body, and my cultivation level was increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The middle stage of foundation building...

Late stage of foundation building...

The early stage of Golden Elixir...

Mid-stage Golden Core...

It didn't stop until the late stage of the Golden Core realm!

My strength has greatly improved, and I feel full of power.

I clenched my fist, feeling the surging spiritual energy within me, and my heart was filled with boundless pride.

Kuroba, do you think you can stop me?

Now, I am stronger than ever before!

“Xiao Yao, you…” Hei Yu looked at me in disbelief.

I gave him a cold glance and ignored him.

At this moment, I am no longer that weak woman who could be slaughtered at will.

I turned and looked into the depths of the garden, where something even more mysterious seemed to exist.

I started walking deeper into the area. Each step was firm and resolute.

Suddenly, I sensed a powerful aura coming from ahead.

I stopped and looked ahead warily.

As the mist dissipated, a figure slowly appeared in my sight.

"You finally came……"
