Chapter 654: Mutation and Regeneration

Chen Ze looked at the crystal for a while and said, "This crystal should be what the vines and monsters are really guarding."

Lu Xinghe nodded. He thought so in his heart, but he still said, "Be careful, don't act rashly."

"Master Lu, maybe this crystal is the key to opening the stone door."

After hearing what Chen Ze said, Lu Xinghe narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the crystal carefully again, and said after a moment of silence, "It's possible, but don't act rashly."

Just when everyone was deadlocked, the crystal suddenly shone brightly, illuminating the entire cave like daylight.

Everyone subconsciously covered their eyes with their hands to adapt to the strong light.

After the light lasted for a while, it gradually converged, and some complex patterns and symbols appeared faintly inside the crystal.

Chen Ze approached the crystal, trying to see the patterns and symbols clearly, muttering, "What does this mean?"

Lu Xinghe said sternly, "Don't act rashly, let me study it carefully."

He walked slowly around the crystal, staring at the mysterious patterns and symbols, his brain working fast.

After a moment, Lu Xinghe frowned slightly, "These patterns and symbols seem to contain some kind of rules."

Chen Ze hurriedly asked, "Master Lu, have you seen any clues?"

Lu Xinghe shook his head, "No, it seems that we can only take this crystal to the stone gate first."

"That's the only way."

After a moment, everyone returned to the stone gate.

Lu Xinghe held the crystal and brought it close to the runes on the stone gate, trying to find the connection between the two.

At this moment, the patterns and symbols on the crystal and the runes on the stone gate flashed at the same time, and the light intertwined.

"Is it really going to react?" Chen Ze stared nervously.

However, the light flickered for a moment and then gradually dimmed, and the stone gate remained motionless.

"It doesn't seem that simple." Lu Xinghe sighed.

Chen Ze thought for a moment and said, "Master Lu, could it be that our method is wrong? Maybe a specific order or a specific way of inputting spiritual power is required."

Lu Xinghe nodded: "It's possible. Everyone should think carefully about whether they have seen similar rune patterns."

At this time, an elder of Xingyue Sect said, "Master, I have seen similar rune patterns in an ancient book. It seems to be related to some ancient formation."

Lu Xinghe's eyes lit up: "Tell me about it."

The elder recalled and said, "According to the ancient book, this formation needs to inject spiritual power in a specific direction and rhythm."

Everyone tried again according to the method said by the elder. When the spiritual power was injected to a certain extent, the stone door made a dull sound and slowly opened a gap.

"It works!"

Everyone increased the spiritual power input, and the stone door finally opened completely.

An ancient and mysterious breath gushed out from the door.

Lu Xinghe walked into the stone door first, followed by Chen Ze and others.

Inside the door was a huge stone chamber, with all kinds of mysterious objects and magic weapons placed around.

"These are all treasures!" Someone couldn't help but exclaimed.

Lu Xinghe said vigilantly: "Don't move, be careful of the trap."

However, before everyone could react, the floor of the stone chamber suddenly began to sink.

Then, a gust of wind suddenly blew in the stone chamber, and sand and stones filled the sky.

Everyone used their spiritual power to resist the wind and sand.

When the wind and sand stopped for a while, everyone found that the scene in front of them had changed.

The clear stone chamber inside the stone door turned into a complicated passage, like a maze.

"This is probably another difficult hurdle."

"Don't disperse, let's find a way out together."

Everyone moved forward cautiously in the maze, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.

At this moment, a subtle sound came from Chen Ze's ears. He stopped vigilantly and looked in the direction of the sound.

Seeing a black shadow flash by, Chen Ze's heart tightened and he shouted loudly: "Who is it!"

Everyone was attracted by his voice, and they stopped and looked in the direction where the black shadow disappeared.

Lu Xinghe said gloomily: "Everyone be careful, there is something strange here!"

Chen Ze held the magic weapon tightly in his hand and continued to move forward carefully, with the clones guarding behind him.

The road in the maze became more and more tortuous, making people confused.

"Master, this is not a solution. We may be trapped here." An elder of Xingyue Sect said.

Lu Xinghe pondered for a moment and said: "Everyone look for any mechanism or clues."

Chen Ze carefully observed the walls around him and suddenly found a strange pattern on a stone wall.

"Master Lu, look at this."

Lu Xinghe walked up and looked at the patterns carefully, "This seems to be a pattern of some kind of formation."

Just as everyone was studying the patterns, a sinister laugh suddenly came from all around.

"Hahahaha, you're all going to die here!"

Lu Xinghe shouted angrily, "You cowards, come out if you can!"

However, the only response he got was the creepy laughter.

At this time, an elder of Xingyue Sect said, "Sect Master, the sound seems to come from the depths of the maze."

Lu Xinghe gritted his teeth, "Let's go and take a look!"

Everyone went deeper into the maze in the direction of the sound, and the atmosphere became more and more weird.

Suddenly, a huge stone door appeared in front of them, with mysterious symbols engraved on it.

Chen Ze had a bad feeling in his heart, "Why is there another stone door? Do we need another crystal?"

Lu Xinghe stared at the symbol on the stone door, his expression becoming more and more solemn: "The runes on this stone door are exactly the same as those on the previous stone door.

But there are some differences, perhaps it has a lot to do with this maze."

Everyone tried to push the stone door open again, but it still did not move.

"It seems that we have to find a way to open it." Chen Ze frowned.

Just as everyone was thinking hard, an elder of Xingyue Sect suddenly found a slight depression on the wall next to the stone door.

He walked forward and carefully observed the depression, and a glimmer of hope surged in his heart: "This may be a mechanism."

Everyone came over, and the elder carefully reached his hand into the depression to explore.

Suddenly, he felt a strong force sucking his hand, and his face changed drastically: "Not good!"

An elder quickly reached out to pull the elder back, but it was too late.

The force sucked the elder in, and the runes on the stone door instantly shone with a strange light.

"Everyone back off!" Lu Xinghe shouted.

Everyone panicked.

Lu Xinghe forced himself to calm down and think about countermeasures.
