Chapter 792: "Unexpected Relics and Strange Treasures"

"Wow, there seems to be light inside!" Zhang Meng couldn't wait to look in front, almost jumping up with excitement, "Quick! Let's go and take a look!"

Ye Li glared at him: "Slow down, don't step on the trap again!"

"I call this momentum!" Zhang Meng said confidently, "Just wait and see how I perform!"

Qin Feng and Chu Tian looked at each other, smiled bitterly and shook their heads: "He is really impatient."

A few people carefully walked through the stone gate, and suddenly the view in front of them opened up. What came into view was a huge underground relic. The surrounding walls were carved with complex patterns, which seemed to be telling an ancient legend.

"Wow, this place is so spectacular!" Zhang Meng wandered around and took out his phone to take pictures. "This is definitely a 'check-in spot' in my circle of friends!"

"Don't forget that we are here for adventure, not for tourism." Ye Li reminded him in a serious tone.

"I know, I know, but it's a rare scenery! I'll take a picture of you that makes you look especially nice." Zhang Meng winked at her mischievously.

Chu Tian covered his forehead helplessly: "I hope you don't take pictures of yourself that make you look too ugly."

"Oh, this is so funny, come and look here!" Zhang Meng suddenly ran to the wall and pointed at a huge relief. "What is this? It looks like a statue of a god?"

Several people rushed over to take a closer look. On the relief was an ancient god engraved with his hands raised high and a majestic face, as if he was protecting the ruins.

"This statue is quite interesting. Could it be the patron saint of this place?" Qin Feng asked while observing.

"I hope it won't get as angry as you." Ye Li said half-jokingly.

Zhang Meng continued to study it carefully: "No, there must be some secret hidden behind this statue. Look, there is a small hole here."

"Don't touch it casually!" Chu Tian warned him vigilantly, "There may be a mechanism hidden in the small hole."

"I'll just take a look, not touch!" Zhang Meng said this, but his hand couldn't help but reach inside.

At this moment, the eyes of the stone statue suddenly flashed with golden light, and the walls of the entire ruins began to vibrate slightly.

"Oh! I told you there would be a trap!" Chu Tian stepped back nervously, ready to meet the enemy with the sword in his hand.

"Don't panic, don't panic!" Zhang Meng pulled his hand back, his face full of astonishment, "I just wanted to take a look, I didn't expect it to be so sensitive!"

At this moment, the ground below the relief began to slowly open up, revealing a dark, deep hole that exuded a gloomy atmosphere.

"Oh, another trap!" Zhang Meng complained, "There are so many traps in this place."

"This is not an ordinary pit." Qin Feng took a deep breath and stared at the entrance of the cave. "We have to be careful. There may be a bigger secret hidden here."

"Do you want to let Brother Meng go down first to scout the way?" Ye Li asked with a smile.

"I said I don't want to be a pioneer!" Zhang Meng reacted instantly and shook his head, "I'm not going to do it this time!"

"Then let me try." Chu Tian thought about it and decided to step forward. He took a deep breath, slowly squatted down, and looked into the cave.

"What the hell is this place?" Chu Tian glanced at the cave and was suddenly attracted by a pile of strange objects. "It seems there are some strange treasures!"

"What treasure?" Zhang Meng immediately leaned over, his eyes shining.

"I want to see it too!" Ye Li followed excitedly, while Qin Feng looked around vigilantly.

The light in the cave was very dim. Chu Tian used the sword in his hand to illuminate the cave and found that the objects were of different shapes. Some looked like ancient weapons, while others looked like strange decorations.

"This is such a treasure!" Chu Tian couldn't help but exclaim.

Zhang Meng looked eager to try: "Do you want me to go down and look for it? Anyway, I have already fallen into the trap once, so I won't be afraid this time!"

"Don't be anxious, let's take a look first." Qin Feng looked around vigilantly and carefully examined the treasures. "These things look like ancient relics. They should be very precious."

"I want to know, what are they used for?" Ye Li raised her hand and pointed at a glimmering sphere. "That sphere looks very strange."

Chu Tian gently picked up the sphere with his sword. The surface of the sphere was smooth and emitted a light blue light, as if it had some mysterious power.

"It looks like it can glow. Is it a glowing ball?" Zhang Meng approached, his eyes lit up, "Let me see!"

"Don't touch it!" Chu Tian grabbed him and said, "What if there is a trap inside?"

"I'll just take a look!" Zhang Meng was unconvinced and bent down to observe the sphere carefully.

At this moment, the sphere suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and the entire cave was suddenly illuminated as bright as day. Zhang Meng was blinded by the light and covered his eyes: "Ouch, my eyes!"

The light gradually faded away, and Chu Tian looked at the sphere in his hand in amazement: "This... this is an energy ball!"

"Damn! Are you sure this is an energy ball and not a lighting fixture?" Zhang Meng teased with a smile.

"Don't be ridiculous. Look at its surface. There are runes!" Chu Tian carefully observed the fine lines on the sphere. "These runes are very ancient. They may represent some kind of power."

"Wow, this is amazing!" Ye Li exclaimed in admiration, "We must bring this thing back, it may be helpful for our expedition."

Qin Feng thought more deeply: "But the power of this sphere may attract the attention of other mysterious people. We have to be careful."

"Anyway, now that we've found this treasure, let's take it with us!" Zhang Meng clapped his hands, jumping with excitement, "I'll take it!"

"Wait!" Chu Tian raised his hand to stop him, "Look at other things first, don't just look at one."

The group continued to explore the cave and found several mysterious objects: an ancient sword that looked extremely sharp, several gleaming crystals, and a strange golden badge.

"This badge looks so high-end!" Ye Li picked up the badge and admired the pattern on it. "It looks like some kind of status symbol."

"Should we try this sword?" Zhang Meng walked to the sword, his eyes flickering, "It looks very sharp!"

"Then you have to be careful not to scratch yourself again." Chu Tian shook his head helplessly.

Zhang Meng grabbed the sword and took a stance: "This is called battle preparation!"

"Hey! This sword seems quite light." He waved it a few times, looking dazed, as if he felt like a brave knight.

"Stop dreaming, Brother Meng, come and take a look at this crystal." Ye Li suddenly shouted, pointing to a crystal with a mysterious blue light band in the center.

"I'll do it!" Zhang Meng immediately put down his sword and rushed to the crystal, his eyes sparkling: "This crystal is definitely a treasure!"

"Are you sure this is not a trap?" Qin Feng reminded, "We have to be careful."

"How about I try it first?" Zhang Meng said, reaching out to touch the crystal.

"Wait a minute!" Chu Tian felt uneasy when he saw this, so he pulled him back and said, "Let's poke it with the sword first to make sure it's okay."

"Good idea!" Zhang Meng immediately accepted the suggestion and gently poked the crystal with the sword in his hand.

"Crack—" A dazzling light suddenly burst out from the surface of the crystal, and the entire cave began to vibrate.

"I told you to be careful!" Qin Feng looked anxious and immediately prepared to fight.

"Retreat quickly! Retreat quickly!" Chu Tian pulled Zhang Meng and retreated hurriedly, fearing that the crystal would cause greater danger.

Just when everyone was panicking, the crystal made a roaring sound, then became calm, emitting a warm halo.

"What's going on?" Ye Li was a little dazed, watching the halo on the surface of the crystal gradually condense into a beam of light, rushing straight to the ceiling.

"Is it to activate some mechanism?" Chu Tian frowned.

Zhang Meng suddenly became excited: "I told you this crystal is definitely not simple! It must be a key to open the door!"
