Chapter 434: Unexpected Rewards and Mysterious Challenges

Qin Feng and his companions, in cooperation with the Tianxing Sect expedition team, successfully explored the ancient ruins and discovered a large number of precious treasures and mysterious documents. Everyone felt a full sense of accomplishment and was full of confidence in the challenges ahead. However, just as they were about to return, something unexpected happened.

"Wow, there are so many treasures here!" Zhang Meng said excitedly, holding an ancient treasure chest full of glittering gems and gold coins.

"These treasures are really dazzling." Chu Tian also sighed, "However, we still have to be careful not to be distracted by these treasures."

"Yes, our goal is to find the real secrets in the ruins." Qin Feng reminded everyone, "Although these treasures are precious, the purpose of exploration should still be the main purpose."

At this moment, the leading man came over with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, it seems that you have found a lot of treasures. It's really admirable exploration ability."

"Thank you for your compliment." Qin Feng responded with a smile, "This cooperation is very pleasant, and we are very grateful for your help."

"The cooperation process was indeed smooth." The leading man said with a smile, "However, we also found some interesting things. Have you found a page in this book?"

"This book?" Qin Feng asked in surprise, "We have read it carefully, but we don't seem to find anything special."

"That's because this page is protected by a special magic. It can only be deciphered in a specific way." The leading man explained, "We have just cracked the magic and discovered more secrets."

"Really?" Ye Li asked in surprise, "Then how can we decipher these secrets?"

“It’s actually very simple. Just put this page under the sun and the hidden content will be revealed.” The leading man said, and then took out a page of ancient book and placed it under the sun.

A mysterious text and a map suddenly appeared on the page. A new coordinate was marked on the map, which seemed to be another hidden site.

"Wow, this is a real surprise." Chu Tian said excitedly, "It looks like we have a new exploration target!"

"The location on this map looks very interesting." Qin Feng said seriously, "We might as well explore it according to the coordinates on the map."

Everyone repacked their equipment and decided to head to the new exploration location according to the coordinates on the map. Before setting off, the leading man left them some additional advice and warnings, reminding them to pay attention to safety and various possible dangers.

"This expedition may be more dangerous than the previous ones." The leading man said, "I hope you can handle it with caution."

"Thank you for your reminder. We will be careful." Qin Feng said, "We will definitely pay attention to safety and try to avoid unnecessary risks."

Everyone brought the necessary equipment and moved forward along the coordinates on the map. Along the way, they encountered various challenges, including dangerous terrain and ferocious beasts. Despite this, they still relied on tacit cooperation and firm belief to overcome these difficulties one by one.

"Wow, the scenery here is so beautiful." Ye Li exclaimed, "But the environment here also makes people feel a little strange."

"Yes, this place looks a bit like a forgotten world." Chu Tian said, "We must be careful and not take it lightly."

After a period of exploration, they finally arrived at the location marked on the map. It was a mysterious cave hidden deep in the cliff, and the entrance of the cave was covered by a heavy stone door.

"It looks like we've found the right place." Qin Feng said, "This stone door looks very old. It should be the entrance to the cave."

"However, there seem to be some strange symbols on this stone gate." Zhang Meng said, "Do these symbols have special meanings?"

"These symbols look like some kind of ancient code." Qin Feng analyzed, "We need to decipher this code before we can open the stone door."

Everyone began to carefully study the symbols on the stone door and tried to crack the code. After some effort, they finally found the correct solution, and the stone door slowly opened, revealing the interior of the cave.

"We finally entered the cave." Ye Li said excitedly, "I hope there will be what we want inside."

After they entered the cave, they found that it was very spacious and full of various ancient mechanisms and traps. They moved forward carefully to avoid triggering any dangerous mechanisms.

"This cave looks even more complicated than the previous ruins." Chu Tian sighed, "We have to be more careful."

"That's right, we need to be cautious at every step here." Qin Feng said, "We must remain vigilant and ensure safety."

Deep in the cave, they found a huge room with an ancient altar in the center. A mysterious gem was suspended above the altar, which looked very attractive.

"Is this what we are looking for?" Zhang Meng asked in surprise, "This gem looks very unique."

"We have to be careful. This gem may have special protection measures." Qin Feng reminded, "Don't act rashly. Observe the surrounding situation first."

Everyone carefully observed the environment around the altar and found that the gemstone above the altar seemed to be protected by a mysterious light curtain. Various strange symbols flashed on the light curtain, which was obviously some kind of defense mechanism.

"It seems that we need to break this light curtain to get the gem." Ye Li analyzed, "However, the mechanism of this light curtain may be very complicated."

"We can try to use our previous experience to crack this light curtain." Chu Tian said, "As long as we stay calm, we will definitely find a solution."

Everyone worked together to crack the mechanism on the light curtain. Using the knowledge and skills they had learned before, they gradually found a way to crack the light curtain. After some effort, the light curtain was finally lifted, and the gem slowly fell from above the altar.

"Great, we successfully got the gemstone." Qin Feng said excitedly, "This expedition was really fruitful."

Just when everyone was happy about their success, they suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound alertly and found a group of strange men in black approaching quickly.

"Why are they here again?" Ye Li asked in surprise, "Who are these people?"

"They don't look like good people." Qin Feng frowned and said, "We have to be careful."

The men in black quickly surrounded Qin Feng and his companions, obviously coming for the gem. The leading man in black said coldly: "Hand over the gem, and we can consider sparing your lives."

"Humph, it's not that easy to get the gem." Qin Feng responded coldly, "We won't give it to you easily."

"Then don't blame us for being rude." The leader of the men in black said coldly, "Go!"

The battle was about to start, and Qin Feng and his companions went all out to resist the attacks of the men in black. Although there were many enemies, they relied on unity, cooperation and superb fighting skills to repel the men in black one by one.

"These people are so annoying." Chu Tian said angrily, "But we still managed to protect the gem successfully."

"That's right, we must protect this gem." Qin Feng said, "It may bring more secrets and challenges."

After a fierce battle, Qin Feng and his companions finally repelled the men in black and successfully protected the gem. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and felt a sense of relief and satisfaction.

"This adventure was really full of challenges." Ye Li sighed, "But we finally overcame all the difficulties."

"Yes, our adventure is still going on." Qin Feng said with a smile, "There are still many challenges in the future, but as long as we unite and work together, we will be able to overcome all difficulties."

Everyone took the gems and continued their journey back home. Although their adventure was far from over, they believed that as long as they persevered, they would be able to achieve their goals and write their own legends.
