Chapter 115: Middle Hole

Deep in the secret realm of Beiya Cave, in the silence, Lu Xiuyuan and Wen Lingyue stood side by side, with the soul-calming banners in their hands put away. They had determined eyes, ready to leave this place that was once full of crises and adventures.

Wen Lingyue lowered her head in thought, her fingers gently stroking the storage bag at her waist, as if she was thinking about something. Time was running out, and there were only a few days left before the Beiya Cave Secret Realm was closed. At this moment, they were still wandering on the edge of the outer cave, and they had to rush to the middle cave as soon as possible to find the more precious opportunity in the legend.

Lu Xiuyuan frowned, and his eyes scanned the surroundings, as if looking for potential danger. He said to Wen Lingyue in a deep voice: "Yue'er, the situation is not good now. There are pursuers in front and siege behind. We must be extra careful."

Wen Lingyue nodded gently. She knew the current situation very well. Any negligence could put them in an irretrievable situation. She looked up at Lu Xiuyuan, with a gleam of determination in her eyes: "Xiuyuan, we have gone through countless hardships and dangers along the way. We will definitely be able to overcome this danger this time."

Lu Xiuyuan smiled slightly, his eyes flashing with an unyielding light: "Yes, we must be careful and not let down at the last moment. Although this Beiya Cave Secret Realm is full of dangers, it is also a great opportunity for us to improve our strength."

The two smiled at each other, as if all the difficulties had become insignificant at this moment. They walked side by side, step by step out of this mysterious place full of unknowns.

The scene outside was still in chaos, with people from all walks of life fighting for the opportunity in the secret realm. Lu Xiuyuan and Wen Lingyue carefully shuttled among the crowd, trying to avoid causing unnecessary trouble. They knew that keeping a low profile at this moment was the best way to protect themselves.

As time went by, they gradually approached the middle cave. The middle cave is the core area of ​​the Beiya Cave Secret Realm. It is said that there are more precious treasures and inheritance hidden inside. However, the danger here is also doubled. Not only are there powerful monsters, but there are also various strange traps and prohibitions.

Lu Xiuyuan and Wen Lingyue did not dare to be careless, they always remained vigilant and carefully explored the middle cave. They encountered some powerful monsters, but with their extraordinary wisdom and tacit cooperation, they successfully avoided the pursuit of these monsters.

After many thrilling experiences, they gradually went deeper into the core area of ​​the middle cave. The spiritual energy here was even more intense, as if it could penetrate into people's bones. They felt a strong attraction, as if something was calling them.

Finally, they arrived at a mysterious cave. The entrance of the cave was covered by a layer of light curtain, exuding a mysterious atmosphere. They knew that this was their destination - the core area of ​​the middle cave.

The two looked at each other, a hint of determination flashed in their eyes. They took a deep breath and walked towards the cave. As they approached, the light curtain began to ripple, as if welcoming their arrival.

However, just as they entered the middle cave, a discordant sound suddenly rang out.

"Hey, aren't these the two rookies from the outer cave? How come they came to the middle cave? What a joke." A young man dressed in brocade clothes, holding a folding fan, looked at Lu Xiuyuan and Wen Lingyue with a joking expression.

His voice immediately attracted the attention of the others around him, and everyone cast curious glances at him. Some people began to whisper and point at Lu Xiuyuan and Wen Lingyue, as if they were some rare animals.

Lu Xiuyuan frowned slightly, but did not lose his temper. He knew that keeping calm was the most important thing at this time. Wen Lingyue gently held his hand, giving him support and encouragement.

However, the young man in brocade clothes did not seem to give up. He continued to taunt, "I'm telling you guys, you'd better go back to the outer cave. This is not a place for small characters like you to venture out. Don't let yourself die without knowing how."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter from all around. Those who were just watching began to belittle Lu Xiuyuan and Wen Lingyue.

Lu Xiuyuan's anger gradually rose, but he remained calm. He knew that the reason these people were so arrogant was simply because they had not seen his true strength.

At this moment, Wen Lingyue gently pulled his hand, signaling him not to be impulsive. She smiled and said to everyone: "Everyone, we came here to find opportunities and improve our strength. As for whether we can make it to the middle cave, that is not for you to judge."

Her voice was gentle and firm, like a stream of fresh air washing away the mocking voices around her. However, those people did not seem to buy it and continued to belittle Lu Xiuyuan and Wen Lingyue.

At this moment, Lu Xiuyuan finally couldn't stand it anymore. He raised his head suddenly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He exuded a powerful aura, like a beast about to wake up.

"Hmph, since you look down on me so much, let me see how powerful you are." Lu Xiuyuan said coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he flashed and rushed towards the young man in brocade clothes. His speed was extremely fast, like a flash of lightning across the void. Everyone only felt a flash before their eyes, and Lu Xiuyuan had already appeared in front of the young man in brocade clothes.

The young man in brocade clothes obviously did not expect Lu Xiuyuan to suddenly attack. He was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly waved his folding fan to block. However, his attack seemed so weak in front of Lu Xiuyuan. Lu Xiuyuan just lightly swung his fist and knocked the folding fan away, and then punched the young man in brocade clothes in the chest.

The young man in brocade clothes screamed, flew backwards, and fell heavily to the ground. He covered his chest, struggling in pain, and was obviously seriously injured.

The crowd around them suddenly fell silent. They looked at the young man in brocade clothes lying on the ground, and then looked at Lu Xiuyuan who was standing there, their eyes filled with shock and fear. They had never thought that this rookie, whom they had always looked down upon, actually had such a strong strength.

Lu Xiuyuan glanced at everyone coldly, then pulled Wen Lingyue to continue walking deeper into the middle cave. In the eyes of everyone, his back seemed so tall and mighty, like an insurmountable mountain.

Those who had originally belittled them could only watch them walk away, their hearts filled with regret and fear. They knew that they had hit a wall this time, and if they met Lu Xiuyuan and Wen Lingyue in the secret realm in the future, they would probably have to take a detour.

The man in brocade clothes staggered to his feet and said, "You are despicable and shameless. I am not ready yet, so you have no right to be so arrogant. Come on!"

Lu Xiuyuan grinned and looked at him coldly, as if he was looking at prey.
