Chapter 357 Try to calm yourself down!
Rong Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that he couldn't panic at this time, otherwise it would only make things worse. He looked at the old man and asked, "Old man, do you know what's going on? Why is the treasure box empty?"
The old man groaned for a moment and slowly said, "I have never seen this treasure box. But according to legend, the treasure hidden here is not ordinary gold and silver. It may be a heritage, a power, or even a curse. Perhaps, this treasure already exists in another form, and it is not the real thing we can see."
Rong Yu was moved when he heard this. He looked at the empty box, and a glimmer of enlightenment flashed in his eyes. Perhaps, their understanding had been wrong all along. Treasure is not necessarily gold and silver. It may be an invisible force, a spiritual inheritance.
"Then...what should we do?" Tong Luoluo's voice was a little confused, and he obviously didn't know what to do next.
Rong Yu took a deep breath, looked at the old man and Ye Wuhen, and said: "Perhaps, we should re-examine our goals. We have been looking for treasures, but we have never really thought about the meaning of treasures. Now, this empty box has given us a revelation that the treasure may not be what we imagined."
Ye Wuhen nodded in agreement. He looked at the empty box, his eyes flashing with determination: "No matter what the treasure is, we must find it. Even if it is an invisible force, we must grasp it in our hands."
The old man also nodded, expressing his support for their decision. He looked at Rong Yu and said, "Young man, I admire your courage and wisdom. I believe that as long as you persist, you will be able to find the real treasure."
Rong Yu felt warm at heart when he heard this. He looked at Tong Luoluo and Ye Wuhen and found that their eyes were also shining with determination. He knew that they did not give up because of the empty box, but instead strengthened their determination to find the treasure.
"Then let's move on." Rong Yu waved his hand and led the way into the depths of the stone chamber.
Tong Luoluo and Ye Wuhen followed closely behind, and the three of them moved carefully in the stone chamber.
At this moment, Tong Luoluo screamed and scared everyone!
"Lolo, what's going on?"
"Something crawled over the back of my feet!" she said nervously!
Hearing the sound, Rong Yu immediately stopped and looked around sharply, trying to catch the unknown creature. His voice was deep and powerful, trying to comfort the nervous Tong Luoluo: "Don't be afraid, I'm here. Wuhen, you protect Luoluo, I'll go find out what it is."
Ye Wuhen nodded quickly, protecting Tong Luoluo behind him, and looked around vigilantly. The light in the stone room was dim, and only the gem in Rong Yu's hand emitted a faint light, barely illuminating the distance of a few feet ahead.
"What on earth is that? I... I'm a little scared." Tong Luoluo's voice trembled slightly, and it was obvious that she was frightened by this sudden change.
"Don't be afraid, Lolo. Rong Yu and I are here, and nothing will happen to you." Ye Wuhen comforted her softly, while tightly gripping the sword in his hand, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.
Rong Yu explored forward cautiously, his eyes searching the floor of the stone chamber, trying to find the unknown creature. Suddenly, his steps paused, his eyes locked on a dark corner.
"What is that?" Rong Yu whispered to himself, and then walked quickly to the corner. He squatted down and took a closer look, and found that it was a small insect emitting a faint light.
"It turns out to be a small insect. Don't be afraid, Lolo. It shouldn't hurt anyone." Rong Yu breathed a sigh of relief and turned to say to Tong Lolo and Ye Wuhen.
Tong Luoluo heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, but then asked curiously: "But why are there bugs here? Shouldn't this be a very ancient and mysterious place?"
Rong Yu pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Perhaps, this place is not as desolate as we imagined. Perhaps there are other creatures or secrets here."
Ye Wuhen also nodded in agreement. He looked at Rong Yu and said, "So what should we do now? Continue to explore further?"
Rong Yu took a deep breath and looked at the empty box, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Now that we have come to this point, we can't give up easily. No matter what secrets are hidden here, we must find out."
The three of them reached an agreement and continued to walk deeper into the stone chamber. As they went deeper, the atmosphere in the stone chamber became more and more oppressive, as if something was watching them from the dark.
"Something seems to be wrong here." Ye Wuhen's voice was low and alert. He gripped his sword tightly, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.
Rong Yu also felt something strange. He looked at the stone walls around him and found some strange patterns and runes engraved on them. These patterns and runes flashed with a faint light, as if telling some secrets.
"These runes... are somewhat similar to the ones on the treasure box." Rong Yu muttered to himself, trying to decipher the meaning of these runes.
"Then... do they have anything to do with the treasure box?" Tong Luoluo asked curiously, her eyes fixed on the runes, trying to find some clues from them.
Rong Yu pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Maybe. These runes may be a guide or a warning. We must be careful not to trigger any mechanism or trap."
The three of them carefully shuttled through the stone chamber, their heartbeats accelerated, their nerves tense to the extreme. Suddenly, a low roar came from the depths of the stone chamber again, shaking the ground slightly.
"What's that sound? Is it coming from that treasure box again?" Tong Luoluo's voice trembled a little, and she was obviously frightened by this sudden change.
Rong Yu and Ye Wuhen also stopped immediately and looked in the direction of the sound with nervous expressions. They knew that the sound this time was different from the roar of the treasure box before, and it seemed deeper and more dangerous.
"No, the sound this time was not made by the treasure box." Rong Yu said in a deep voice, his eyes searching the stone chamber, trying to find the source of the sound.
"What...what is that?" Tong Luoluo asked nervously, her hands unconsciously tightening around the sword at her waist.
Ye Wuhen also clenched his fists, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time. His eyes wandered around the stone chamber, trying to find some clues.
Suddenly, Rong Yu's eyes locked onto a dark corner. He found a tiny crack there, with a faint light shining through it. The low roar came from that crack.
"There is a crack there, and the sound came from there." Rong Yu said in a low voice. He looked at Ye Wuhen and Tong Luoluo, motioning them to follow.
The three of them walked towards the crack carefully, their heartbeats quickening and their nerves tense to the extreme. When they arrived in front of the crack, they found that the light coming out of the crack was getting brighter and brighter, as if something was pouring out from it.
"What...what is this?" Tong Luoluo widened his eyes and looked at the crack with horror.
Ye Wuhen also frowned, holding the sword tightly in his hand, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time. He knew that this matter might be more complicated than they imagined.
Rong Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He knew that he couldn't panic at this time, otherwise it would only make things worse. He looked at the crack, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "No matter what is hidden in it, we must find out."
After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the crack. Tong Luoluo and Ye Wuhen followed closely behind, and the three of them stepped into the crack carefully. The crack was narrow and deep, and only a faint light penetrated through the crack, barely illuminating the road under their feet.
As they went deeper, the atmosphere in the crack became more and more oppressive. The low roar was getting closer and closer, as if something was stirring in the dark. The three people's heartbeats accelerated, and their nerves were tense to the extreme.
Suddenly, a dazzling light shot out from the end of the crack, illuminating the entire space. The three of them were stunned, then quickened their pace and ran towards the source of the light. When they arrived at the source of the light, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
A huge underground palace appeared in front of them. The palace was magnificent and full of glittering gems and precious works of art. The low roar came from a huge altar in the center of the palace.
"This... where is this?" Tong Luoluo widened his eyes and looked at the sudden underground palace with disbelief.
“Looks like… a hidden treasure.”
Ye Wuhen was also shocked. He stared at the gems and artworks closely, afraid of missing any details.
Rong Yu frowned and looked at the altar with mixed feelings.
This altar has some connection with the treasure box they saw in the stone chamber before.
He was sure that the secrets hidden here were definitely more shocking than they could imagine.
"What...should we do?" Tong Luoluo's voice trembled slightly, and she was obviously caught off guard by this sudden change.
Ye Wuhen also frowned, his eyes wandering between the altar and the surrounding palaces, trying to find some clues. He knew that this incident might be more dangerous than any of their previous experiences.
Rong Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He knew that he couldn't panic at this time, otherwise it would only make things worse. He looked at the old man and asked:
"Old man, do you know what's going on here? Why is there a hidden underground palace?"
The old man pondered for a moment and slowly said: "This place... may be the secret treasure place of a powerful force in ancient times.
They may have used this place as a last refuge, hiding their precious treasures and secrets here.”
Rong Yu's heart moved when he heard this. He looked at the altar, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "Then we must find this secret, no matter what it is."
After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the altar. Tong Luoluo and Ye Wuhen followed closely behind, and the three of them carefully surrounded the altar.
The roar became louder and louder, hurting their eardrums, but they did not dare to relax at all.
Rong Yu stared at the altar, trying to find a way to open it.
He found that there were some runes engraved on the altar, similar to those on the treasure box before. These runes were flashing with faint light, as if telling some secrets.
"These runes... are the same as the ones on the treasure box." Rong Yu muttered to himself, trying to recall the arrangement of the runes on the treasure box.
"Then...what should we do?" Tong Luoluo asked nervously, her eyes fixed on the runes, afraid of missing any details.
Ye Wuhen also frowned, he knew that this challenge might be more difficult than any they had experienced before. But he also understood that only by moving forward courageously could they find the answers they wanted.
"Perhaps, we can try the same method we used to open the treasure box before."
Rong Yu pondered for a moment and spoke slowly.
He knew this method might be risky, but it was their only hope of finding clues.
Upon hearing this, Tong Luoluo and Ye Wuhen both nodded in agreement.
They knew there was no way out now.
Only by finding this secret can they uncover the mystery of this underground palace.
Rong Yu took a deep breath and began to try to mobilize the power in his body to communicate with the runes on the altar.
As time passed, the runes on the altar began to flicker, as if communicating with his power.
The roar became louder and louder, shaking the entire underground palace.
Rong Yu felt his strength being depleted, but he did not dare to relax at all.
But this time, his method didn't work!
