Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

After successfully passing through the maze, Qin Feng and his companions continued to go deeper into the Spirit Snake Cave. However, the road was not smooth, and they unexpectedly encountered a strange fork in the road. Here, Chu Tian confidently demonstrated his "unique" sense of direction, but ended up getting everyone into a funny adventure.

The four people walked out of the maze exit, and the view in front of them suddenly opened up. What came into view was a wide underground tunnel. There were several glowing crystals embedded in the stone walls on both sides of the tunnel, emitting a faint light.

"We finally got out of that damn place." Chu Tian stretched out his body, looking relaxed. "I thought we would be trapped in the maze forever."

Qin Feng smiled and shook his head: "If we rely on your sense of direction, we may have to go around hundreds of times."

"Hey, Qin Feng, can't you have a little confidence in my sense of direction?" Chu Tian feigned dissatisfaction and retorted, "I am very experienced. No matter how complicated the Spirit Snake Cave is, it can't escape my 'Eagle Eyes'."

Ye Li couldn't help but laugh: "Chu Tian, ​​your 'Eagle Eyes' are really unique. You can't even see through phantoms."

Chu Tian scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Okay, I made a mistake this time, but I will definitely lead you to find the right way next time!"

Zhang Meng looked at the tunnel ahead and said in a deep voice, "There seems to be a fork in the road ahead. We must choose the road carefully."

"That's easy," Chu Tian said confidently, "Leave it to me. My intuition is always accurate!"

Qin Feng shrugged helplessly: "Then I'll leave it to you. I hope you can really lead us on the right path this time."

Not long after they walked, they came to a fork in the road. The fork split into three paths, each of which seemed deep and mysterious, as if leading to different places.

"Hmm..." Chu Tian stood at the fork in the road, frowning, "Why do these three roads look similar?"

Ye Li observed the entrances to each path and said cautiously, "These three paths may each have different challenges. We must choose carefully."

Qin Feng touched his chin and asked, "Chu Tian, ​​what do you think with your 'Eagle Eyes'? Which path is more reliable?"

Chu Tian pointed to a road on the left and said confidently: "The road on the left looks wider and should be safer."

Qin Feng nodded: "Okay, let's take the left one."

So, the four of them continued along the left path that Chu Tian had chosen. At first, the path did seem relatively wide and flat. Not long after they walked, Chu Tian proudly said, "See, I said this path is better!"

"I hope I didn't make the wrong choice this time." Qin Feng smiled, but still remained alert in his heart.

However, after walking for a while, the path suddenly became narrow, the stone walls on both sides gradually approached, and the space above the head became lower and lower.

"Why is this place getting narrower and narrower?" Chu Tian's tone revealed a hint of uneasiness.

Ye Li couldn't help but teased: "Chu Tian, ​​is there something wrong with your intuition again?"

Qin Feng smiled and said, "Don't jump to conclusions yet. Maybe things will become clearer in the future."

Zhang Meng remained silent, walked at the back, and carefully observed the movements around him.

Sure enough, the passage ahead seemed to have changed, and they vaguely saw a bright light. Chu Tian immediately became excited again: "Look, I told you, there must be no problem ahead!"

Qin Feng felt a little relieved, however, when they got closer to the light, their feet suddenly felt empty and they lost their balance. Almost at the same time, the four of them fell into a hidden trap.

"I knew it wouldn't be that easy!" Qin Feng shouted, quickly adjusted his posture in the air, and grabbed a protruding stone pillar beside him.

Ye Li and Zhang Meng also reacted quickly, using their soul power to stabilize their bodies, but Chu Tian was so surprised that he was a beat late and fell directly into the depths of the trap.

"Chu Tian!" Qin Feng shouted, and at the same time slid down the stone wall quickly.

Ye Li and Zhang Meng followed closely behind, and they soon fell to the bottom of the trap. It was a spacious underground hall, surrounded by strange stone carvings, and Chu Tian was sitting on the ground with a confused look on his face.

"Are you okay?" Ye Li asked with concern, helping Chu Tian up.

Chu Tian rubbed his butt, grinned and said: "It's okay, it just hurts a little bit."

Qin Feng couldn't help but teased: "It seems that your 'Eagle Eyes' this time is really not very reliable."

Chu Tian smiled bitterly and touched his head: "I didn't expect there would be a trap... But what should we do now?"

Zhang Meng looked around and said in a deep voice: "This looks like an ancient altar. It may hide some secrets."

Qin Feng nodded: "That's right, since we have already fallen down, let's take a look here to see if there are any clues."

The four began to search in the hall. The stone carvings on the wall looked ancient and mysterious, as if telling some ancient legend. Qin Feng carefully observed one of the stone carvings and found that there was a huge snake carved on it, and its eyes seemed to be inlaid with two sparkling gems.

"These stone carvings may record the history of the Spirit Snake Cave." Ye Li said softly, "Maybe we can find some clues from them."

Chu Tian walked to the stone sculpture, looked up at the two gems, and couldn't help asking: "This gem looks very valuable, how about we take it away?"

Qin Feng smiled and said, "Don't touch them again. These things may be part of the mechanism."

However, Chu Tian couldn't hold back his curiosity and gently touched one of the gems. As a result, the stone sculpture's eyes suddenly emitted a dazzling light, the entire hall began to shake violently, and the stone bricks on the ground gradually cracked to both sides, revealing a bottomless black hole.

"That's great, something happened again!" Qin Feng quickly grabbed Chu Tian to prevent him from falling.

Ye Li said calmly: "It seems that this is indeed an ancient altar, and we may have triggered some kind of opening ceremony."

Zhang Meng carefully observed the edge of the black hole and said in a deep voice: "We can't act rashly anymore. We must figure out the purpose of this altar."

Qin Feng nodded: "We are already trapped here, we must find a way out. Chu Tian, ​​don't touch anything for now."

Chu Tian scratched his head awkwardly: "Sorry, I really didn't mean it..."

Ye Li smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. The most important thing now is to find a solution."

The four continued to search in the hall and finally found an ancient scroll in a corner. Qin Feng opened the scroll and found that it recorded an ancient ritual. Through this ritual, the altar can be activated and the path to the deeper part can be found.

"It seems this is our only way out." Qin Feng said, "We can perform the ritual according to the instructions on the scroll, and maybe we can find the exit."

Chu Tian asked with some concern: "Is this ritual dangerous?"

Ye Li comforted him, "Don't worry, we will be careful and it should be fine."

Qin Feng followed the instructions on the scroll and began to arrange the materials and runes needed for the ceremony. As the ceremony progressed, the altar gradually emitted a faint light, and a stone bridge began to rise at the edge of the black hole, leading to the unknown depths.

"It seems that the ceremony was successful." Zhang Meng nodded and said, "We can move on."

Qin Feng clenched the Dragon Shadow Sword, his eyes firm: "No matter what lies ahead, we must remain vigilant. We cannot make any more mistakes this time."

Chu Tian took a deep breath: "I understand, I will not mess around this time!"

The four of them continued to move forward along the stone bridge, the light of the altar gradually disappeared behind them, and the unknown darkness and challenges were still ahead. But they knew that as long as they united as one, they could overcome all difficulties and find the ultimate secret of the Spirit Snake Cave.
