Chapter 162: Journey to the Mysterious Ruins

Yun Yao, Chu Mochen and other disciples came to the mysterious ruins together. As soon as they stepped into the entrance of the ruins, an ancient and mysterious atmosphere came to their faces, as if carrying the precipitation of years and endless stories. The walls around were engraved with strange runes and patterns. These runes flashed with a faint light, as if telling the glory of the past, and seemed to hide some unknown secrets. Yun Yao was full of curiosity and vigilance. She knew that in this unknown world, every step might hide danger.

They walked forward cautiously, and the stone road under their feet made a slight "creaking" sound, which was particularly clear in the silent ruins. On the way, they encountered some simple mechanical traps. The first trap was a row of spikes hidden under the ground. When a disciple walking in front accidentally stepped on a seemingly ordinary stone slab, the spikes suddenly popped out from the ground. Fortunately, Yun Yao was quick-witted and she shouted, "Be careful!" At the same time, she pulled the disciples around her back a few steps, thus avoiding an accident. Chu Mochen stepped forward to check the trigger mechanism of the trap, and he found that these spikes were controlled by a simple pressure-sensing device. He used his spiritual power to place a large stone on the triggering stone slab, successfully retracting the spikes into the ground again, and opening up a safe path for everyone.

Continuing forward, they encountered another hidden arrow mechanism shot out from the wall. Yun Yao relied on the logical thinking and observation skills she had accumulated in modern times, and quickly discovered some tiny marks on the wall, which showed the direction and pattern of the hidden arrows. She directed everyone to quickly hide in a safe place, and at the same time, she and Chu Mochen used spiritual power to resist the hidden arrows. After some efforts, they successfully passed this area without any danger.

Deep in the ruins, they found a secret room. The door of the secret room was closed, and a complex pattern was engraved on the door, like a mysterious seal. Yun Yao carefully observed the pattern, trying to find a way to open the door. She found that some lines in the pattern seemed to have some connection with the surrounding runes, so she followed the direction of these lines and used her spiritual power to touch the surrounding runes one by one. When she touched the last rune, the door of the secret room made a low roar and slowly opened.

Inside the door, a flash of light appeared, and some precious elixirs and magic weapons were stored inside. When the disciples saw these treasures, they were all excited. However, their excitement did not last long, because the moment they entered the secret room, a powerful force wave came, and at the same time, a more powerful protective formation was triggered.

After the formation was activated, the entire secret room was instantly enveloped by light. Powerful attack forces came from all directions, and the disciples were in trouble. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were no exception. They were separated by the power of the formation. Yun Yao was in a corner of the formation. She felt the pressure around her getting bigger and bigger, as if countless invisible hands were pulling her. But she did not panic, but calmly relied on the system's prompts to try to find the flaws in the formation. The system showed some information about the operating principle of the formation in her mind. Based on this information, she observed the flow and changes of light in the formation.

Chu Mochen was on the other side of the formation, relying on his powerful cultivation to resist the attack of the formation. He exuded a powerful spiritual light, forming a shield to resist the continuous attacks. His eyes were firm, thinking in his heart that he must protect himself and other disciples. At this critical moment, some other disciples were injured, some were panicked, and the scene was in chaos. A disciple was hit by an attack because he could not dodge in time, fell to the ground, and spit out blood. Yun Yao was extremely anxious when she saw this scene, but she knew that she had to find a way to break the formation first before she could save everyone.

Yun Yao concentrated and continued to observe the formation. She found that the light in the formation would weaken for a moment at a certain point. Although this time was very short, she believed that this was the flaw in the formation. She shouted to Chu Mochen: "Chu Mochen, I found the flaw in the formation. It's at the flashing point in the northeast. Let's attack there together!" Chu Mochen heard Yun Yao's call and immediately looked in the direction she said. He also found the flashing point, so he mobilized all his spiritual power without hesitation and prepared to launch an attack.

Yun Yao also gathered her spiritual power. The spells in her hands kept changing, and the power of the water system condensed into a blue ball of light in her hands. She saw the right moment and threw the ball of light in her hand towards the flaw. At the same time, Chu Mochen also launched a powerful attack. A golden light cut through the air and rushed towards the flashing point.

The two forces met at the flashing point, making a loud noise. After the formation was attacked, the light flickered violently, and the strength of the attack was temporarily weakened. But this was not enough, the formation was not completely cracked. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen did not give up, they continued to attack, rushing towards the flaw again and again.

With their efforts, the light of the formation gradually dimmed, and the attack became weaker and weaker. Finally, after a fierce battle, the formation made a crisp cracking sound and was successfully cracked. The light dissipated, and the secret room returned to peace. With their help, the other disciples also escaped from danger. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, with tired but excited smiles on their faces.

This experience created a tacit understanding between Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. They began to have a new understanding of each other and no longer confronted each other as before. Yun Yao had a deeper recognition of Chu Mochen's strength, and Chu Mochen was impressed by Yun Yao's wit and calmness. They smiled at each other, and at this moment, a special emotion quietly grew between them. Although it was still hazy, it laid the foundation for the development of their future relationship.
