"Behind this door, the real secret of Yinyuan Temple is hidden." Yuan Ling said with a hint of excitement in her voice.
We carefully pushed open the stone door and saw a wide space behind the door.
This place is completely different from the outside world, as if it is a small independent world.
In the center of the space, there is a huge whirlpool, with a dazzling light emitting from the center of the vortex, surrounded by floating islands, each with strange buildings.
"This is the core of Yinyuan Temple. Each island represents a different world." Du Yunpeng's voice was filled with shock and greed. "If we can master the power here, then we will be omnipotent."
I looked around with vigilance, knowing in my heart that every step here was full of unknowns and dangers.
I turned to look at Yuan Ling and Qin Wuyan, their eyes also shone with determination.
At this moment, the buildings on the island began to change, as if some kind of life form was awakening.
Suddenly, figures floated down from the island, their eyes flashed with ominous light, and they held ancient magic weapons in their hands.
"These are the guardians of Yinyuan Temple. They will stop any intruders." Qin Wuyan whispered.
I immediately took out the magic weapon I carried with me, a talisman sword made of special wood, which was engraved with runes to suppress demons.
Yuan Ling and Qin Wuyan were also ready to fight. A string of crisp magic bells appeared in Yuan Ling's hand, while Qin Wuyan clenched a long sword with erratic flames wrapped around it.
The guardians slowly landed in front of us, their auras were cold and powerful, as if they were connected to every inch of this space.
One of the guardians walked towards us with a stern face and steady steps. He spoke, and his voice was like an ancient echo: "You are the first batch of mortals who can break into this place, but your journey ends here."
As soon as he finished speaking, the guardians launched an attack.
Their magic weapons carry strong spiritual power and turn into various forms of light and shadow to attack us.
Yuan Ling waved the magic bell in her hand and made a crisp ringing sound. The ringing sound contained powerful magic power and formed a protective shield around us.
Qin Wuyan wielded the flaming sword, and every time he swung the sword, it brought out scorching flames to compete with the guardian's attacks.
Not to be outdone, I swung my sword and used the sword technique inherited from the Heavenly Master. The sword light was like a rainbow, directly attacking the weak points of the guardians.
The battle intensified, and the entire space seemed to be shaken by the battle.
The buildings on the island began to shake, and the light in the center of the vortex became stronger and stronger.
At this moment, a guardian suddenly let out a roar, and his body began to expand, turning into a huge beast in the blink of an eye.
Its eyes were like blazing fire and its claws were extremely sharp as it rushed towards us.
Yuan Ling quickly formed a seal and released a powerful beam of light, hitting the beast-shaped guardian directly.
Qin Wuyan did not dare to neglect, his flaming sword turned into a fire dragon, rushing towards it with billowing heat waves.
I took advantage of this opportunity and fully exerted the ability of my extremely yin body, pushing the power of the talisman sword to the extreme.
An extremely cold sword energy burst out from the tip of the sword and directly hit the heart of the beast-shaped guardian.
Under our joint attack, the beast-shaped guardian let out a shrill wail, and then his body began to shatter, turning into countless light spots and dispersing in the air.
When the other guardians saw this, their expressions became more ferocious, and their attacks became more violent.
The battle lasted for an unknown amount of time, and in the end we defeated all the guardians with our firm will and strong strength.
As the last guardian fell, the entire space suddenly became quiet.
The three of us looked at each other and smiled. Although we were tired, our eyes shone with victory.
At this time, the light in the center of the vortex became brighter, as if calling us.
"That is the core of Yinyuan Temple. We must go and see it." Yuan Ling said, and we all nodded in agreement.
Guided by the light, our group slowly walked towards the center of the whirlpool.
Yuan Tingfeng's brows were furrowed, obviously wary of what was about to happen.
Du Yunpeng followed closely behind, his eyes flashing with complicated light, obviously full of desire for the secrets of Yinyuan Temple.
Just as we were about to step into the center of the vortex, an invisible force suddenly surged out, as if an invisible barrier blocked our way.
At this moment, a calm and ancient voice came from the space: "If you want to know the secret of Yinyuan Temple, you must go through the final test."
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding space began to distort violently.
The scene in front of us changed instantly. The original center of the whirlpool disappeared and was replaced by a vast mysterious land.
This place is no longer a simple island, but a series of ancient and mysterious buildings. They are well-proportioned and exude a profound atmosphere.
In this new space, we feel an unprecedented sense of oppression.
There was a suffocating force in the air, as if the entire space was full of danger.
"Be careful, every step here may be a trap." Yuan Tingfeng warned in a low voice.
We moved forward slowly, taking every step with extreme caution.
Suddenly, figures emerged from the darkness. Their figures were strange, some looked like humans but not humans, while others were as ferocious as monsters.
These are the ancient guardians of the Hidden Abyss Temple, and their strength far exceeds that of the previous guardians.
Fighting breaks out again.
We had a fierce battle with these guardians.
Yuan Ling's magic bell sounded shocking, Qin Wuyan's flaming sword danced like a dragon, and Yuan Tingfeng cast a powerful spell, engaging in a desperate contest with the guardians.
I also continued to use the secret methods inherited from the Celestial Master to fight against them until the very last moment.
At the same time, the people of the Du family were not far behind. They each used various methods to try to take advantage of this melee.
Du Yunpeng's eyes were always locked on the mysterious center in front of him. Ambition and greed shone in his eyes. It was obvious that he had his own plans for the secret of Yinyuan Temple.
The battle became more intense, and Du Yunpeng suddenly launched an independent action.
Taking advantage of the chaos, he quickly crossed the battlefield and rushed toward an ancient, seemingly important building.
His movements did not escape my eyes, and I immediately shouted to Yuan Ling and Qin Wuyan: "Be careful of Du Yunpeng, what is he planning!"
Du Yunpeng's behavior is obviously not just a simple escape or exploration. He seems to be very interested in the secrets hidden in this building.
Every step he took was extremely careful, as if he was guarding against something.
After repelling waves of guardians, we followed closely and tried to stop Du Yunpeng's conspiracy.
Yuan Tingfeng's eyes flashed with confusion, and he seemed to be aware of Du Yunpeng's intention.
