Chapter 361 What does the strange animal mean?
"It... seems to be responding to us." Tong Luoluo said in surprise, with a hint of joy in her voice. She had never thought that they could establish some kind of connection with this mysterious creature.
Ye Wuhen also nodded, his eyes also full of surprise and curiosity.
“This creature… may not be our enemy. It may also be part of this cave, or… a guardian of some kind.”
Rong Yu looked behind the creature and found a secret passage.
The passage was previously blocked by a huge rock, but now a narrow entrance was revealed.
"That...may lead to a deeper cave."
Rong Yu said in a low voice, pointing to the passage and motioning the two to follow.
The creature looked very strange, with its body covered with shimmering scales, each of which seemed to be telling an unknown story. Its eyes were like the deep night sky, mysterious and full of wisdom, making people want to explore the mysteries within.
"Where... are you from?" Tong Luoluo's voice was trembling, but more of it was curiosity. She carefully stretched out her hand, wanting to touch the creature, but pulled it back halfway, fearing that she would disturb it.
The creature seemed to sense Tong Luoluo's kindness, and slowly approached her, gently touching the back of her hand with its warm and wet nose. At that moment, Tong Luoluo felt an inexplicable current rushing into her body, shocking her whole body.
"What...what does this feel like?" she asked in surprise, with an incredible light flashing in her eyes.
Ye Wuhen also came over. He looked at the creature warily, but there was a hint of curiosity in his eyes. "It doesn't seem to be hostile to us. Instead... it seems to be somewhat friendly to us."
Rong Yu pondered for a moment, and then he looked at the creature, and a bold guess came to his mind. "This creature may be the guardian of this cave, or... an existence that has some connection with this ancient civilization."
The creature seemed to understand Rong Yu's words. It nodded gently and then made a low and long sound. The sound was like an ancient spell and the sound of nature, which made people feel relaxed and happy, and also made people feel awe.
"What is it saying?" Tong Luoluo asked curiously, trying to catch a clue from the sound.
Rong Yu closed his eyes tightly, trying to feel the sound with his heart, trying to establish some kind of connection with it. After a moment, he slowly opened his eyes, with a glimmer of surprise in his eyes.
"It...it's guiding us, taking us somewhere."
"Where?" Ye Wuhen asked, with a hint of vigilance and curiosity in his voice.
"Not sure, but the real secret of this cave may be hidden there." Rong Yu replied, looking at the creature with gratitude and awe in his heart.
The creature seemed to sense their determination. It slowly turned around and led them deeper into the cave.
The three of them walked towards the passage cautiously, their heartbeats quickening and their nerves tense to the extreme. When they passed through the narrow entrance, they found that it was actually a huge underground palace.
The palace was magnificent and grand, like the remains of an ancient civilization. The walls of the palace were engraved with complex runes and patterns, like some mysterious spell or legend. In the center of the palace, there was a huge altar, on which was placed a dazzling gem, emitting a dazzling light.
"What is this place?"
Tong Luoluo asked in amazement, her eyes filled with wonder at this mysterious world.
She had never seen such a magnificent and beautiful sight, as if she had stepped into a dreamland.
Ye Wuhen also frowned. He looked at the altar and the gem, trying to find some clues from them.
“This palace… may hold all the secrets of that ancient civilization. And that gem… may be a source of some kind of power.”
Rong Yu took a deep breath, and looked around the altar, discovering several hidden mechanisms. Those mechanisms looked extremely complicated, as if they needed a certain method to be triggered.
"These mechanisms... may be the key to controlling this palace." Rong Yu whispered. He looked at the two of them and signaled them to be careful.
The three of them began to explore the palace carefully, their heartbeats accelerating and their nerves tense to the extreme.
They know that this palace may hide unimaginable secrets and powers, and they must deal with it carefully, otherwise they may fall into an irretrievable situation.
As they explored deeper, the scenes in the palace gradually became strange and weird.
The runes on the walls began to flicker, as if they were communicating with them. And the gems on the altar began to emit a brighter light, as if to illuminate the entire palace.
"These runes... seem to be telling us something."
Tong Luoluo whispered, her fingers gently touching the runes, trying to feel the power in them.
Ye Wuhen also frowned. He looked at the runes and gems, trying to find some clues from them.
"These runes... may hold some secret or power. And that gem... may be the key to controlling those powers."
Rong Yu took a deep breath, and he looked towards the center of the altar, and found a small groove. The groove was similar to the stone platform where they had placed the gems before, and it seemed to be used to place some kind of gems.
"Could it be that... this groove is also used to place gems?" Rong Yu whispered. He looked at the two of them and motioned them to take out the gems they had obtained before.
Upon hearing this, the two men hurriedly took out the gem from their arms and carefully placed it in the groove.
As the gem was placed in, the altar suddenly shook, as if a huge force was surging within it.
The entire palace began to flash with dazzling light, as if to envelope them.
"How is this going?"
Tong Luoluo asked nervously, with fear and uneasiness flashing in her eyes. She had never seen such a strange and mysterious scene, as if the whole world was collapsing and reorganizing.
Ye Wuhen also held the hilt tightly and looked around vigilantly. He knew that this palace might hide unimaginable dangers and traps. They must remain vigilant, otherwise they might fall into an irretrievable situation.
Rong Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that he couldn't panic at this time, otherwise it would only make things worse. He looked at the center of the altar and found that the light there began to gather into a huge ball of light, as if it was about to break free and rush into the sky.
"What kind of power is this?" Tong Luoluo asked in amazement, with a hint of joy and curiosity in her voice. She had never felt such a powerful and mysterious power, as if it was taking her into a whole new world.
Ye Wuhen also frowned, and he looked at Rong Yu, trying to find the answer from him. "This power... seems to be related to the gemstone from before. Could it be... that we triggered some mechanism and released this power?"
Rong Yu nodded, his eyes flashing with determination. "Yes, this power... may be what we have been looking for. It may hide all the secrets of that ancient civilization, or it may bring us unimaginable changes."
As the light ball gradually dissipated, the light in the palace began to soften.
The runes on the walls gradually stopped flickering, as if they had completed their mission.
The gems on the altar continued to emit a soft light, as if guarding the palace.
The three of them looked at each other and saw the surprise and excitement in each other's eyes.
Rong Yu slowly walked towards the altar, his eyes lingering on the gem for a long time, as if trying to decipher the mystery hidden in it. "This gem... seems to contain some kind of ancient power, which is closely related to everything we have encountered before."
Tong Luoluo followed closely behind, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and awe. "This power... could it be the legacy of that ancient civilization? Why did it choose us?"
Ye Wuhen remained alert, his sword still in hand, ready to deal with any possible danger. "Whatever this power is, we must be careful. It may bring opportunities, but it may also bring disaster."
At this moment, the creature suddenly let out a low roar, and its eyes flashed with a strange light, as if warning them of something.
"What...what is it saying?" Tong Luoluo asked nervously. She looked at the creature, trying to catch a clue from it.
Rong Yu closed his eyes tightly, and tried to feel the creature's emotions. After a moment, he slowly opened his eyes, with a solemn light flashing in his eyes. "It said... this power is not something we can easily control. It may bring endless wealth and power, but it may also cause unimaginable disasters."
Ye Wuhen frowned upon hearing this. "Then what should we do? Should we just give up like this?"
Rong Yu shook his head, his eyes firm and resolute. "No, we can't give up. But we must act cautiously and not blindly pursue power while ignoring the dangers involved."
At this moment, the gem on the altar suddenly burst into a dazzling light, illuminating the entire palace as bright as day. The three of them quickly covered their eyes, fearing that they would be hurt by the light.
When the light gradually dissipated, they found that the gem was actually suspended in the air, slowly rotating, as if demonstrating its endless power.
"This...what's going on?" Tong Luoluo asked in amazement, her eyes full of awe for the unknown world.
Rong Yu stared at the gem, an inexplicable premonition welling up in his heart.
“This gem… may be responding to our wishes. It may be trying to tell us something.”
Rong Yu looked at the gem, and its light gradually became softer. The three of them only felt a powerful force surging into their bodies, as if it was going to tear them apart.
