Chapter 496 Treasure Land

Turtle Lao walked in front, observing the surrounding environment from time to time.

"Everyone, please be aware that the atmosphere here is a bit abnormal and may be potentially dangerous."

They continued to move forward, and as they got closer to the area that might be related to the mysterious place, they felt a powerful mysterious force.

This power both excites and terrifies them.

Suddenly, a low roar came from a distance.

They immediately stopped and looked warily towards the direction of the sound.

The Swamp Thing seemed to feel threatened, and it let out a roar in preparation for the coming danger.

Fang Yue clenched the weapon in his hand and leaned forward slightly, getting ready for battle.

"Everyone, be careful, something is coming."

The fox girl's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. She stared ahead nervously, holding tightly to the corners of Fang Yue's clothes with both hands.

Turtle Lao quickly mobilized the magic power in his body and prepared to cast spells to protect everyone at the critical moment.

As the low roar got closer and closer, the surrounding fog seemed to be stirred more violently by this invisible pressure. Fang Yue's eyes were fixed on the direction of the sound, trying to identify the coming danger from the diffuse fog.

After a moment, a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the fog. It was a monster that looked like a rhinoceros, but it was several times larger than an ordinary rhinoceros. Its body was covered with scales as hard as iron, and each scale shone strangely in the faint light. Its eyes were like two burning flames, emitting a fierce light.

at the same time,

Behind this rhino monster, countless more rhino monsters appeared.

This is actually a demon tribe.

Fang Yue and others' hearts sank. Maybe a huge rhinoceros demon was nothing, but facing a demon tribe, the pressure increased exponentially in an instant.

The fox girl's face became even paler, and her voice trembled as she said, "Fang Yue, there are so many rhino monsters, what should we do?"

Fang Yue held the weapon tightly and said with firm eyes: "Don't panic, let's observe their movements first. Mr. Gui, do you have any ideas?"

Old Turtle frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "There are so many of these rhinoceros monsters that it's impossible to fight head-on. We have to find ways to find their weaknesses, or create chaos and take advantage of the opportunity to break out."

Fang Yue nodded, staring closely at the approaching group of rhino demons.

The giant rhinoceros monster headed by it roared again, and the rhinoceros monsters behind them seemed to have been ordered to speed up their pace.

Fang Yue calmly analyzed the situation and suddenly thought of a way: "We can use the swamp terrain to lure some rhinoceros monsters into the quagmire and weaken their number."

The fox girl said with some worry: "But wouldn't this be too risky? What if we ourselves get stuck in the quagmire?"

Fang Yue said: "Let's be careful and try to avoid dangerous areas. Mr. Gui, can you use magic to create some illusions to attract the attention of the rhinoceros demon?"

Turtle Lao responded: "You can try it." After saying that, Turtle Lao quickly cast a spell, creating a sparkling treasure illusion not far away.

Sure enough, some rhinoceros monsters were attracted by this illusion and rushed in that direction, but they got stuck in the quagmire and struggled to extricate themselves.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fang Yue and others quickly moved in the other direction.

However, the rhinoceros monster group was not so easy to get rid of. They quickly adjusted their direction and continued to chase.

Fang Yue was thinking about countermeasures as he ran. Suddenly, he saw a dense bush not far away.

With a thought in his mind, he said, "We may be able to avoid the sight of the rhinoceros demon by hiding in the bushes."

Fox Girl and Turtle Lao had no other choice but to rush into the bushes with Fang Yue.

They carefully concealed their auras and waited nervously for the passing of the rhinoceros demon group.

The rhinoceros demon group lingered nearby for a while, seemingly losing their target.

The giant rhinoceros monster headed by them let out an angry roar and led some of the rhinoceros monsters towards the other direction.

Fang Yue and others breathed a sigh of relief, but they did not dare to take it lightly and continued to keep quiet in the bushes. The fox girl leaned gently against Fang Yue, her eyes still filled with nervousness and uneasiness.

"Fang Yue, what should we do now? The rhinoceros monster might come back." The fox girl asked in a low voice.

Fang Yue frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "We can't stay here for a long time. We must find clues to the mysterious place as soon as possible, and then leave this dangerous place. Mr. Gui, which direction do you think we should go next?"

Mr. Gui pondered for a moment and said slowly: "We can try to continue moving in the direction where we just felt the mysterious power, but we must be more cautious."

Fang Yue nodded, and the three of them carefully emerged from the bushes and continued to move towards the target.

Along the way, they were always alert to the movements around them, for fear that the rhinoceros demon would appear again.

As they go deeper, the surrounding environment becomes more mysterious and unpredictable.

The fog seemed thicker and the mysterious power became stronger.

Fang Yue was both excited and nervous. He knew that they might be getting closer to the mysterious place, but at the same time they were also facing more unknown dangers.

Suddenly, a strange light appeared in front, shining with mysterious colors.

Fang Yue and others stopped and looked at the light in confusion.

"What is that?" Fox Girl asked softly.

Fang Yue stared at the light and said slowly: "I don't know, but we must be careful. Maybe this is some sign of the mysterious place, or it may be a new danger."

They cautiously approached the light, taking every step with extreme caution.

Fang Yue walked in front, holding the weapon tightly in his hand, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

The fox girl followed closely behind him, her hands trembling slightly as nervousness filled the air.

Gui Lao watched his surroundings vigilantly, secretly condensing his magic power in preparation for emergencies.

As the distance shortened, the light became more dazzling, and the surrounding fog was colorfully illuminated by the light.

They gradually saw that the light seemed to be emanating from an entrance similar to a cave.

Fang Yue stopped and carefully observed the situation around the cave.

The rocks around the cave entrance are carved with strange symbols and patterns, which exude an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

"Old Turtle, look at these symbols and patterns. Do you have any clues?" Fang Yue asked in a low voice.

Turtle Lao stepped forward and looked at the symbols and patterns carefully, with a thoughtful look on his face.

After a while, he said slowly: "These symbols and patterns seem to be related to some kind of ancient formation, but I only know a little bit about it and I am not completely sure."

The fox girl said worriedly: "Then should we go in? What if there is danger inside?"

Fang Yue thought for a moment and then said: "This light is probably related to the mysterious place. We can't give up easily. But we can't enter blindly. Let's first look around to see if there are any other clues."

They began searching carefully around the cave, hoping to find some information about the cave.

On the side of the cave, they found some footprints that looked like they were left by some large animal, but were different from the footprints of the rhino demon they had encountered before.

"Could these footprints be clues to a mysterious place?" Fox Girl guessed.

Fang Yue shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, but we can look in the direction of the footprints."

They followed the direction of the footprints carefully and found that the footprints extended into a dense forest.

The trees in the woods are tall and old, with lush branches and leaves, almost completely blocking the sunlight, making the woods look particularly dark.

After entering the woods, they became more cautious, always paying attention to the movements around them.

Suddenly, they heard a slight rustling sound, as if something was moving through the woods.

Fang Yue immediately stopped and signaled Fox Girl and Turtle Lao to stay quiet.

They stood quietly, nervously watching what was going on around them.

A moment later, a figure flashed through the woods at an extremely fast speed, and they could only see a vague outline.

"What is that?" Fox Girl asked in horror.

Fang Yue frowned and said, "I don't know, but it doesn't look like a rhinoceros monster. Let's be careful and move on."

They continued to move forward in the woods, rustling sounds ringing in their ears from time to time, keeping their nerves in a state of high tension.

As they went deeper into the woods, they found a huge stone platform in front of them. There seemed to be something placed on the stone platform.

At the same time, the Lord also obtained traces of Fang Yue and others. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a cold smile.

"Hmph, these guys are really desperate. Now that they have entered the trap, it just gives me the opportunity to catch them all."

The Lord immediately summoned his men, and under his leadership, a group of powerful monsters quickly rushed in the direction of Fang Yue and the others.

As Fang Yue and the others continued to run away, they accidentally discovered a strange area hidden deep in the woods.

The arrangement of trees here seems to have a certain pattern, and there are also some faint lines on the ground, which seem to form a huge pattern.

Turtle Lao carefully observed the surrounding environment, and a hint of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"Wait a minute, Fang Yue, Fox Girl, I think we may have found the formation to open the mysterious treasure land!" Gui Lao said excitedly.

When Fang Yue and Fox Girl heard this, they immediately stopped and looked in the direction pointed by Mr. Gui.

Fang Yue asked doubtfully: "Old Turtle, are you sure? This looks like an ordinary forest."

Mr. Gui squatted down, pointed at the lines on the ground and said, "Look, although these lines are not very obvious, their direction and arrangement are similar to the ancient formations I once saw in an ancient book. .

Moreover, combined with the mysterious power fluctuations we felt before, I am very confident that this is the key to unlocking the mysterious treasure land we have been looking for. "

The fox girl was still a little worried: "But even if this is a formation, we don't know how to activate it. And the Lord and the others are still chasing after us, so we don't have time to study it slowly."

Fang Yue pondered for a moment and then said: "Let's not be impatient, Mr. Turtle. See if you can find some clues about the activation of this formation based on your memory of ancient books. Fox Girl and I are responsible for guarding against the Lord and the others suddenly Appear."

Turtle Lao nodded and began to study the formations on the ground with all his concentration.

Fang Yue and Fox Girl looked around nervously, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

As time passed by, beads of sweat gradually appeared on Gui Lao's forehead, but his eyes became more and more determined.

"I seem to have an idea! This formation requires mana to be injected in a specific sequence to activate, and it seems to have some connection with the surrounding trees." Turtle Lao said excitedly.

Fang Yue immediately said: "Okay, Mr. Gui, tell us what to do, and we will activate the formation together."

Gui Lao pointed at several key nodes of the formation and said: "Fang Yue, stand here and slowly inject your mana into this point. Fox girl, go over there and inject mana according to the method I told you. I'll do it Responsible for this core node in the middle.”

Fang Yue and Fox Girl quickly took their positions according to the instructions of Mr. Gui, and then began to mobilize the magic power in their bodies. They carefully injected mana into the designated locations, fearing that anything would go wrong.

While they were injecting mana, the voices of the Lord and his men were heard in the distance. "They're there, chase them!"

Fang Yue's heart tightened, but he knew he couldn't panic now.

"Fox Girl, speed up, we must activate the formation before the Lord and the others arrive!"

The fox girl gritted her teeth and desperately injected her magic power into the formation. Turtle Lao is also going all out to control the mana input of the core nodes.

Finally, when the Lord and others were approaching, the formation emitted a burst of intense light.

The ground began to shake, and the surrounding trees seemed to come alive, with branches swaying and leaves rustling.

A mysterious passage slowly opened in the center of the formation, exuding a powerful and ancient aura.

"Successful! Let's go quickly!" Fang Yue shouted, pulling Fox Girl and Turtle Lao into the mysterious passage quickly.

When the Lord and others arrived, they only saw the gradually closing passage and the three Fang Yue disappearing in the light.

"Damn! They actually found the entrance." The Lord roared angrily, but he had no choice but to watch them disappear.

After Fang Yue and the others entered the passage, they were stunned by the sight in front of them. The walls of the passage shimmered with strange light, as if they were inlaid with countless gems. The ground is engraved with various mysterious symbols and patterns, which seem to tell ancient stories.

They walked cautiously along the passage, filled with anticipation and nervousness.

As they walked, the light in front of them became stronger and stronger, making them unable to open their eyes. Fang Yue subconsciously raised his arms to cover himself, and squinted his eyes to try to see clearly what was ahead.

As the light gradually faded, they found themselves in a huge palace.

The palace stands tall and majestic, emitting bright light, illuminating the entire palace like a dream.

The tall columns are carved with exquisite reliefs, depicting ancient mythological scenes and mysterious rituals, as if telling a long history. (End of chapter)
