Chapter 214: Lost Relics, Mysterious Test

"Is everyone ready?" Qin Feng stood in front of the entrance of the ruins and asked, turning back.

"Of course!" Zhang Meng patted his chest, "We just got a great discount from the mysterious merchant!"

"Yes, I will definitely be able to show my skills this time!" Chu Tian said excitedly.

"What I'm most looking forward to is seeing more strange things." Ye Li added with a smile, "For example, the merchant's hat is really unique."

"Come to think of it, his hat really does look a bit like an ancient wizard's hat." Wang Hao said with a smile, "I feel like there are a lot of secrets hidden in it."

"Okay, everyone, be careful. The ruins here may not only be a test, but also contain more mysteries." Qin Feng reminded, "We must be careful."

They walked into the depths of the ruins. The runes on the wall still emitted a faint light, and the corners of the passage seemed to hide many unknown dangers. Just then, they found a huge stone door, which was engraved with ancient words and patterns.

"Is this a new problem?" Chu Tian approached the stone gate and carefully observed the characters. "It seems that these ancient characters are very complicated."

"Let me take a look." Shadow stepped forward and gently touched the words with his fingers. "These words should be ancient protective spells. We may need to solve these spells to open the stone door."

"A spell?" Ye Li frowned. "How do we break it?"

"I have an idea." Qin Feng suddenly thought, "We can try using the scroll given by the merchant, maybe it can help us solve these problems."

"Scroll?" Wang Hao looked confused. "Do you think that kind of thing is really useful?"

"There's no harm in trying." Qin Feng said, "We don't have any other options anyway."

Qin Feng took out the glittering scroll from his backpack and unfolded it carefully. The runes on the scroll began to glow, releasing a faint mist, reflecting the ancient characters on the stone door more clearly.

"It looks like the scroll is indeed useful." Zhang Meng said with emotion, "However, we still have to find out the meaning of these runes."

"Hmm, there is a key word 'trial' in these words." Shadow whispered, "It seems that we have to pass the trial before we can enter."

"Trial?" Chu Tian was a little nervous, "Then we have to be careful."

"The trial begins!" The stone door suddenly made a deafening roar, and then slowly opened. Behind the door was a wide hall, with various complex patterns on the floor.

"This looks more like a maze." Ye Li said, "We have to be careful to avoid getting lost."

"Let's split up and find a way out faster," Qin Feng suggested, "but we must keep in touch."

"I understand." Chu Tian nodded, "Let's go!"

Everyone divided into several groups and began to explore the hall. Qin Feng and Youying formed a group, Zhang Meng and Ye Li formed a group, and Wang Hao acted alone.

After walking for a while, Qin Feng and Youying discovered a mysterious stone tablet, which was engraved with strange symbols and patterns.

"This stone tablet looks very old." Qin Feng said, "The symbols on it seem to be some kind of puzzle."

"Let me see." Shadow carefully studied the symbols on the stone tablet. "These symbols are like ancient codes. We may need to decipher these codes before we can move forward."

"Password?" Qin Feng looked excited, "Then we have to study it carefully."

Shadow nodded, "Yes, we need to find out what these symbols mean."

At the same time, Zhang Meng and Ye Li found a mechanism in the hall on the other side. A huge gem was hanging above the mechanism, and it was surrounded by complicated mechanisms and traps.

"This mechanism looks very complicated." Zhang Meng said, "We have to be careful."

"Yes." Ye Li nodded. "I will try to use the power of the Frost Fox to control the mechanism, and you will be responsible for finding the switch."

"Okay." Zhang Meng began to look for switches around the mechanism, while Ye Li used the Frost Fox's cold air to try to freeze those dangerous mechanisms.

After some effort, they finally found the switch of the mechanism, and the gem slowly descended, revealing a hidden passage.

"Now we can move on." Zhang Meng said, "But we still have to be careful."

"Of course." Ye Li agreed, "This place is full of dangers."

Wang Hao found a hidden door in the hall on the other side, with strange symbols engraved on it. He tried to hit the symbol on the door with his fist, but there was no response.

"It seems that this door cannot be opened by force." Wang Hao scratched his head, "I have to find another way."

Suddenly, the symbol on the door began to glow, and the door slowly opened, revealing a hidden room. In the center of the room stood an ancient stone tablet, engraved with strange words and patterns.

"It seems this is a new puzzle." Wang Hao said, "I have to find out the meaning of these words."

At the same time, Qin Feng and Youying continued to study in front of the stone tablet. Youying's eyes suddenly lit up, "I found that these symbols can be combined into a spell, which may be the key to solving the puzzle."

"Then let's try it quickly." Qin Feng said, "See if we can open the passage."

The shadow began to chant the spell, and the symbols on the stone tablet gradually lit up, emitting a soft light. Suddenly, the whole hall shook violently, and the walls around the stone tablet slowly moved, revealing a new passage.

"Success!" Qin Feng said excitedly, "We can move on."

Not far away, Zhang Meng and Ye Li also successfully passed the mechanism and walked into the hidden passage. Wang Hao also successfully solved the puzzle on the door and entered the new room.

"Everyone, let's get together." Qin Feng informed everyone through voice transmission, "We will meet in the center of the hall."

Soon after, everyone gathered in the center of the hall, and a huge door appeared in front of them, engraved with ancient texts and patterns.

"This looks like the final test," Shadow said. "We must be careful."

"Then let's take a break and prepare for the final challenge." Qin Feng suggested, "This adventure is really full of surprises."

Everyone nodded, sat down to rest for a while, and prepared to face the next challenge.

"Hey, everyone, the next adventure will definitely be more exciting!" Zhang Meng said, "We will definitely be able to complete it successfully!"

"Yes!" Ye Li smiled, "As long as we unite as one, nothing can stop us."

Qin Feng looked at his partners with a smile, his heart full of confidence and expectation. He knew that although the challenges ahead were arduous, as long as everyone worked together, they would be able to overcome all difficulties.

"Let's go, future adventures await us." Qin Feng said, "Let's meet new challenges together!"

They stood up and continued on their new journey with full enthusiasm. No matter what kind of test was waiting for them ahead, Qin Feng and his partners were ready to go all out to meet all the challenges in the future.
