Chapter 251 Walking into a Trap

After the lunch incident, the daily life of the academy gradually returned to normal. Qin Feng and his partners continued to train and study, and every day was fulfilling and busy.

That morning, Vice President Feng Jian suddenly summoned all senior students and announced a new mission. When Qin Feng and his companions heard the news, they knew something was going to happen again.

Vice Dean Feng Jian stood on the podium with a serious expression: "Everyone, we have recently discovered some abnormal spiritual power fluctuations in the nearby forest. We suspect that the dark sect is carrying out new activities. We need to send a team to investigate."

Ye Li stood beside Qin Feng and whispered, "Looks like there's something else to do."

Qin Feng nodded, but a surge of anticipation surged in his heart: "It's a good opportunity to stretch my muscles."

The task force was quickly formed. In addition to Qin Feng and his companions, it also included some senior students and instructors. They took sufficient equipment and headed for the mysterious area deep in the forest.

Chu Tian walked in front, looking around as he walked: "To be honest, I have walked through this forest countless times, but every time I come here, I always feel that something is wrong."

Zhang Meng agreed, "That's right. The trees here are so tall that even the sunlight can't get in. It really makes people uncomfortable."

Wang Yue said softly: "Be careful, I always feel that there is something unusual here."

Ye Li held her frost fox and looked around: "Everyone stay alert, we may have fallen into the trap of the dark sect."

Qin Feng walked in the middle of the team, holding the Dragon Shadow Sword, paying attention to everything around him. He also felt a little uneasy in his heart, always feeling that something was watching them in secret.

They continued to move forward for a while, and suddenly, Ye Ying stopped and raised his hand to signal everyone to stop. He frowned and whispered, "There are strange formation fluctuations ahead, be careful."

Everyone stopped immediately, and Ye Li took out a small compass and turned it gently. The needle on the compass kept shaking, obviously being disturbed by strong spiritual power.

"There is indeed a formation!" Ye Li said vigilantly, "We have entered a huge trap."

As soon as he finished speaking, a strange buzzing sound suddenly rang out in the air around him, and the ground began to shake violently. The trees shook and the leaves rustled, as if the entire forest was issuing a warning.

Qin Feng quickly drew out the Dragon Shadow Sword and shouted, "Be careful! There's an ambush!"

Before he finished speaking, the ground suddenly cracked open, and a huge vortex appeared. A black mist emerged from the vortex and quickly spread towards them.

Chu Tian screamed: "Oh no! We are going to be sucked in!"

Zhang Meng yelled, "Hold on tight! Don't get sucked in!"

Although everyone struggled desperately and tried to keep their feet on the ground, the power of the black mist was too strong. Like an invisible hand, it sucked them into a whirlpool one by one.

When Qin Feng regained consciousness, he found himself lying in an unfamiliar place. It was pitch black all around, with only a little light shining through, illuminating a huge stone chamber.

Ye Li, Chu Tian, ​​Zhang Meng and Wang Yue were all nearby, and were obviously also involved. They supported each other and stood up, trying to figure out the situation around them.

Chu Tian touched his head and asked in confusion: "Where are we? What happened just now?"

Qin Feng held the Dragon Shadow Sword and looked around: "We were sucked into a teleportation array. It seems to be a trap set by the Dark Cult."

Ye Li took out her compass and turned it gently. The needle on the compass spun around: "The spiritual energy fluctuations here are very strong. We may have been teleported to a closed space."

Zhang Meng kicked the ground impatiently: "No matter what, we have to find a way out first!"

As they were looking around, Wang Yue suddenly pointed ahead and exclaimed, "Look, what is that!"

Everyone looked in the direction of her finger and saw a huge black stone tablet at the end of the stone chamber. The stone tablet was engraved with ancient runes and emitted a faint purple light.

"This stone tablet seems to be the core of this space." Ye Li observed carefully, "We have to find a way to crack it before we can leave here."

Qin Feng nodded: "In that case, let's get started!"

Qin Feng walked forward and reached out to touch the runes on the stone tablet. As soon as he touched it, he immediately felt a strong spiritual power surge into his body, as if countless voices whispered in his ears.

"These runes are ancient sealing spells." Ye Li explained, "Qin Feng, can you feel anything?"

Qin Feng closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and felt the power of the stone tablet. He gradually heard some vague words: "Seal... power... protection..."

Chu Tian came over and half-jokingly asked, "How is it? Does this stone tablet tell you how to get out?"

Qin Feng opened his eyes and shook his head: "No, but I feel it is conveying some information, which may be related to the secret of this space."

Zhang Meng touched his chin and said, "How about we smash it open and see what secrets it has."

Ye Li quickly stopped him: "No! Destroying the seal casually may lead to a greater crisis. We need to find the right way."

As everyone was discussing, the air in the stone chamber suddenly became cold. The runes on the ground began to flicker, and the stone tablet emitted a low humming sound, as if responding to their discussion.

"There's a reaction!" Wang Yue exclaimed, "Look!"

Qin Feng held the Dragon Shadow Sword tightly, his eyes firm: "Everyone be careful, everything here may be a test."

The light of the stone tablet became brighter and brighter, and suddenly, a black shadow rushed out from the stone tablet. The black shadow condensed and took shape in mid-air, turning into a huge black monster, and pounced fiercely at Qin Feng.

"Get out of the way!" Ye Li shouted, and the Frost Fox instantly released cold air, trying to slow down the monster's attack.

Qin Feng reacted quickly, swinging the Dragon Shadow Sword, and a blue sword light slashed at the monster. The monster was hit, roared, and retreated backwards.

Chu Tian and Zhang Meng also joined the battle, and Storm Wolf and Giant Rock Bear rushed towards the monster together, trying to force it back. Wang Yue cast a healing spell to provide support for the injured teammates.

"This monster is so powerful!" Chu Tian shouted as he beat it, "Everyone be careful!"

Qin Feng was fully focused, holding the Dragon Shadow Sword tightly. He knew that this monster was the guardian of the stone tablet, and only by defeating it could the seal be broken.

He took a deep breath, concentrated all his strength, and used the ultimate attack of the Nine Styles of Dragon Shadow - "Thunderbolt". The sword light struck down like lightning, hitting the monster's head directly.

The monster let out a painful roar, and its huge body began to collapse, turning into a black mist and dissipating into the air.

The runes on the stone tablet flickered for a moment, then gradually dimmed. The entire stone chamber returned to calm, and the air around it became warm again.

"Success!" Wang Yue cheered, "The monster disappeared!"

Ye Li walked forward and carefully examined the runes on the stone tablet: "It seems that we have cracked the seal, and we should be able to leave here now."

Qin Feng nodded, feeling the power surging in his body: "This space seems to be an ancient test site. Once we pass the test, the seal will naturally be lifted."

Chu Tian patted Qin Feng on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You are really amazing, you really have a way!"

Zhang Meng also laughed and said, "If you were a little later, we might have been bitten by that monster!"

Qin Feng smiled and said, "We are a team. Without your help, I can't solve these troubles alone."

Just as they were about to leave, a secret compartment suddenly appeared under the stone tablet. Qin Feng walked forward, opened the secret compartment, and found an ancient scroll inside.

"What is this?" Wang Yue asked curiously.

Qin Feng picked up the scroll and unfolded it carefully. It was filled with densely written words.

Ye Li came over, took a closer look, and said, "This is a secret record of the Ancient Dragon Shadow Clan. It may be related to the power of the Dragon Shadow Sword."

Chu Tian said excitedly: "Great! It seems that this time we not only unlocked the seal, but also obtained valuable information!"

Qin Feng carefully put the scroll away and said with a smile: "We will study it after we return. Although this mission is dangerous, the gains are not small."
