He walked slowly as the surroundings gradually grew dim, as though he had entered an unknown realm. Suddenly, a spacious cave appeared before him. In the center of the cave floated an ancient tome emanating a mysterious aura.
Yan Zhao was drawn to the ancient tome and unconsciously approached it. When he was only a few steps away, something astonishing happened—the ancient tome opened on its own!
The sound of turning pages echoed through the silent cave, like an ancient summons. Immediately afterward, streams of information flooded Yan Zhao's mind like a tide, arriving so quickly that he could barely endure it.
Yet as the information continued to pour in, Yan Zhao gradually understood the reason for it all. This Illusion Array was not a simple maze, but one created to protect a powerful Immortal Law Inheritance. As for the Mysterious Figure, it was merely the inheritance's protective mechanism.
Just as Yan Zhao became fully immersed in the wondrous world of the Immortal Law Inheritance, the entire cave suddenly began to shake violently, as if seized and rattled by a giant hand. Yan Zhao lost his balance in the sudden tremor, staggering several steps and nearly falling to the ground.
Before he could steady himself, a muffled boom came from the cave entrance. Yan Zhao stared in shock as the once-open entrance was sealed by an enormous boulder! The rock stood dozens of zhang tall, blocking the exit completely and allowing not even a sliver of sunlight through.
A sense of foreboding rose within Yan Zhao. He widened his eyes and stared into the depths of the cave. Sure enough, as the tremors intensified, a pack of strangely shaped demonic beasts emerged from the darkness. They were enormous, hideous in appearance, and reeked of an evil aura that made him nauseous.
Yan Zhao's heartbeat quickened rapidly. He realized that these demonic beasts had clearly been drawn here by the disturbance in the ancient tome. And the Immortal Law Inheritance he had just acquired had undoubtedly become a juicy prize in their eyes.
Yan Zhao clenched his fists, his gaze becoming exceptionally resolute. He knew that after such a difficult inheritance process, a fierce battle was unavoidable. He had to rely on the Immortal Law he had just comprehended to drive back these savage demonic beasts before he could safely leave the cave with the precious inheritance.
Yan Zhao took a deep breath. After adjusting his condition, he began circulating the Immortal Law he had just comprehended. As he did so, a powerful energy surged through his body, and a dazzling layer of light instantly enveloped him.
Yan Zhao rapidly moved both hands, forming one intricate and mysterious hand seal after another. Each seal contained boundless power, and when the final seal was completed, he suddenly thrust his palm forward.
A massive Flame Palm shot forth like a burning meteor, carrying unmatched might as it slammed straight toward the foremost demonic beast. The beast clearly had not expected Yan Zhao to suddenly unleash such a formidable move. It had no time to dodge before the Flame Palm struck it hard.
The Flame Palm collided with the demonic beast's body with an earth-shaking boom. Engulfed by flames, the beast let out a shrill scream. Its body was instantly burned black, then it fell straight to the ground like a puppet with cut strings, twitching without end.
However, Yan Zhao had no time to concern himself with the beast's fate. More demonic beasts had already been enraged by the sight and surged forward like a tide, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced on him.
Yan Zhao's expression grew grave. He knew he could not let down his guard in the slightest, or he would be swallowed up by these demonic beasts. He immediately unleashed more Immortal Laws. For a moment, lights of every color shone together inside the cave, brilliant and dazzling.
The roars of spells and the howls of demonic beasts intertwined, deafeningly loud. Amid the chaos, Yan Zhao moved like a phantom, constantly evading the beasts' attacks while continuously launching Immortal Laws of his own and dealing them heavy blows.
Just as Yan Zhao began to feel strained, he suddenly noticed a faint flash of light from the ancient tome. It was like a meteor in the night sky, vanishing in an instant. Yet in that fleeting moment, new information about Immortal Laws flooded into his mind like a tide.
Yan Zhao was delighted. He immediately realized this was a rare opportunity. Without hesitation, he integrated the new Immortal Law information and swiftly unleashed it. With a wave of both hands, an Ice Wall rose before him as if by miracle, blocking the demonic beasts' savage charge.
The Ice Wall was crystal clear, like an enormous mirror, reflecting every attack from the demonic beasts back at them. Startled by the sudden wall of ice, the beasts stopped in their tracks and began circling it, attempting to find a way through.
Seeing this, Yan Zhao secretly rejoiced. Seizing the chance, he immediately gathered all his strength and prepared to unleash his strongest attack. He took a deep breath, and the longsword in his hand gleamed with cold light, as though it had become one with him.
With an angry roar, Yan Zhao fiercely swung his longsword. A massive sword aura flashed forth like lightning, charging straight at the pack of demonic beasts. Its momentum was overwhelming; wherever it passed, the air itself was torn apart, producing sharp, piercing whistles.
The demonic beasts had no time to evade before the enormous sword aura struck them. Their bodies were like paper, instantly shredded into fragments by the sword aura as blood splattered everywhere. When the last demonic beast fell, the cave finally returned to silence.
Yan Zhao sat exhausted on the ground, his breathing somewhat hurried and a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. Yet his eyes were filled with determination and joy. He knew that he had successfully defeated the pack of demonic beasts and obtained the precious Immortal Law Inheritance.
Next, Yan Zhao needed to find a way to push aside the enormous boulder at the cave entrance, leave this cave, and return to the outside world with the precious Immortal Law Inheritance.
