A Western Kid’s Journey into the Eastern Cultivation World

Chapter 160: Chapter 159 The Crystal Caverns Crisis



Elara, Lyra, and Nox made their way to the Crystal Caverns. The entrance of the caverns was surrounded by a layer of shimmering crystal - like energy, which sparkled with a dazzling light under the sunlight.

"Be careful, this energy might be a trap," Nox warned. He waved his staff, and a stream of 探测 magic flowed towards the energy layer. After a while, he said, "There are complex magic runes hidden in it. If we force our way in, it may trigger a powerful attack."

Lyra looked around and found a small crack in the energy layer. "Look, there seems to be a weak point here."

Elara nodded, and she used the power of the shard in her hand to gently touch the crack. The runes in the energy layer flickered, and slowly, a small passage opened up. The three of them carefully walked into the Crystal Caverns.

Inside the caverns, it was filled with all kinds of crystals. Some crystals were as tall as trees, while others were as small as pebbles. The crystals emitted a soft - colored light, creating a mysterious and beautiful scene. But they knew that beauty often hid danger.

As they walked deeper, they heard a low - pitched growl. A huge, crystal - covered golem emerged from behind a large crystal. Its body was made of shiny crystals, and its eyes glowed with a cold, blue light.

"This is the guardian of the crystal caverns," Elara said. "We need to defeat it to get the shard."

The golem raised its huge fist and smashed it towards Nox. Nox quickly dodged and sent a blast of wind magic towards the golem. However, the golem's crystal body was extremely hard, and the wind magic had little effect on it.

Lyra ran to the side of the golem and tried to attack its legs. But as soon as her sword touched the golem's crystal legs, it made a harsh metallic sound, and a shockwave spread, pushing her back.

Elara concentrated her magic, summoning a group of light blades. The light blades shot towards the golem, and some of them managed to scratch the golem's crystal surface. But the golem seemed to be unaffected, and it continued to attack them fiercely.

Suddenly, Elara noticed that there was a faint red light flashing in the golem's chest. "That might be its weak point," she shouted.

Nox understood, and he used his staff to gather a powerful fireball. The fireball shot towards the golem's chest, hitting the red - light area. The golem let out a roar, and its body began to shake.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lyra rushed forward and stabbed her sword into the golem's chest. The golem let out a final howl and collapsed to the ground, turning into a pile of crystal fragments.

After the golem was defeated, a hidden compartment opened in the nearby crystal wall. Inside the compartment was a blue - colored shard, which emitted a cool and refreshing energy. Elara picked up the shard, and she could feel that the power in her body was growing stronger again.

But just as they were about to leave the crystal caverns, the ground suddenly began to shake. A series of sharp - pointed crystals rose from the ground, blocking their way. At the same time, the crystals on the walls began to emit a strange light, and a powerful magic formation was activated.

"This must be Xander's trap," Lyra said angrily. "He doesn't want us to leave so easily."

Elara closed her eyes and tried to sense the power of the magic formation. She found that the key to the formation was a large, purple - crystal in the center of the caverns. "We need to destroy that purple crystal to break the formation."

Nox and Lyra nodded, and they fought their way through the rising crystals towards the purple crystal. However, the closer they got to the purple crystal, the stronger the resistance they encountered. There were also some small, crystal - based monsters that emerged from the ground, attacking them constantly.

Elara used her light magic to clear the way, while Nox and Lyra fought off the monsters. Finally, they reached the purple crystal. Nox raised his staff and struck the purple crystal with all his might. With a loud "bang", the purple crystal shattered, and the magic formation began to fade.

The three of them quickly left the Crystal Caverns. They knew that Xander would not give up easily, and they had to find the next shard as soon as possible. Meanwhile, Xander had also obtained a shard in another place. He was getting closer and closer to his goal, and the race between them was getting more and more intense.
