Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

The morning mist lingered in the valley, and Qin Feng and his companions set out on a new day's journey. Yesterday's laughter and joy were still echoing, but today their goal was to cross a misty forest in search of the legendary ancient ruins.

"Look at this fog, it's really fascinating." Ye Li looked up at the thick fog, with a hint of teasing in her tone, "It feels like we are trapped in a fantasy movie."

"I hope this isn't a horror movie," Chu Tian joked, "otherwise we might encounter some monsters or supernatural events."

"Don't make it sound so scary." Zhang Meng laughed, "As long as we are careful, there shouldn't be any problem."

"However, the fog here is really a bit strange." Wang Hao looked at the fog around him and frowned slightly, "We have to stay vigilant."

"Don't worry." Qin Feng patted his shoulder. "With us here, nothing serious will happen. Everyone follow me closely and don't get separated."

They moved slowly forward in the mist, which was so hazy that they could not see anything clearly. The occasional faint light shining through the trees dyed the mist a light purple, making it look a little mysterious.

"Hey, there seems to be a light ahead." Shadow suddenly said, "Should we go over and take a look?"

"Light spot? Could it be a guide ahead?" Ye Li asked curiously, "We can go and take a look."

They moved towards the direction of the light and soon discovered that it was an ancient stone tablet covered with strange runes, and the light spots came from these runes.

"This stone tablet looks very old." Qin Feng approached the stone tablet and observed it carefully. "Its runes seem to be glowing, which means it may have important hints."

"Everyone be careful, ancient stone tablets often have traps." Shadow reminded, "We need to study these runes first."

Zhang Meng approached the stone tablet and frowned, "These runes look like ancient codes. I don't quite understand how to interpret them."

"Let me try." Ye Li studied the runes carefully. The Frost Fox emitted a faint light beside her, as if to provide help. "These runes may be a puzzle. Solving them may reveal clues."

Just as everyone was studying it seriously, a gust of wind suddenly blew, the fog became thicker, and a feeling of uneasiness came over them.

"Why is the wind so strange?" Chu Tian frowned and said, "It feels like someone is blowing."

"Is something coming out?" Wang Hao asked nervously, "We have to be careful!"

Suddenly, a strange figure walked out of the fog. It was an old man wearing a black cloak. His face was covered by the cloak, leaving only a pair of eyes sparkling with mysterious light.

"What are you doing here?" The old man's voice was hoarse and low. "Intruder, are you ready to face the test?"

"We are here to look for clues to the ancient ruins." Qin Feng stepped forward and said firmly, "We don't intend to cause trouble, we just want to solve the mystery."

"Oh, looking for ruins." The old man chuckled, "Then you must pass my test to be qualified to enter the ruins."

"Test? We are ready." Qin Feng said, "Please tell us what we need to do."

The old man smiled and said, "Okay, then the first test is to solve the puzzle on this stone tablet. You can try to decipher these runes."

"We have tried to decipher these runes." Ye Li said, "but we haven't found the answer yet."

"In that case, let me give you some hints." The old man said slowly, "These runes contain the essence of ancient wisdom, but they also hide traps. The key to solving the puzzle is to find the correct order."

"Okay, let's try." Qin Feng said, "Please give us some time."

Everyone once again focused on studying the runes on the stone tablet. Ye Li carefully compared the runes, trying to find a pattern.

"There seems to be a repeating pattern in these runes." Ye Li said, "We can try to arrange the runes according to this pattern."

"Good idea." Qin Feng nodded, "Let's try this arrangement."

After some effort, they finally arranged the runes in a certain pattern. The light on the stone tablet became brighter, and then a low roar sounded, and the runes on the stone tablet began to gradually disappear, revealing a hidden passage.

"Success!" Wang Hao said excitedly, "We solved the puzzle!"

"It seems that the first step of the test has been completed." The old man's voice came again, "However, there are more tests waiting for you. As long as you can persevere, you will be qualified to enter the ruins."

"We will continue to work hard." Qin Feng said firmly, "Thank you for your reminder."

The old man nodded and slowly disappeared into the mist. Everyone looked at the exposed passage, knowing that the journey ahead would continue.

"Let's go into the passage. The next test may be more difficult." Qin Feng said, "We must remain vigilant."

They entered the passage, the fog gradually dissipated, and a new scene appeared in front of them. Ancient stone pillars, strange mechanisms and unsolved mysteries were waiting for them.

"Wow, the scene here is so mysterious." Zhang Meng exclaimed, "It feels like entering an ancient maze."

"Then let's split up," Shadow suggested, "this way we can find clues faster."

"Okay, be careful." Qin Feng said, "We need to keep in touch and report any situation at any time."

They began to explore the maze-like ruins, each corner of which was full of mysterious symbols and mechanisms. Although the test was difficult, their tacit understanding and courage enabled them to move forward step by step.

"There are so many traps here." Chu Tian said, "But we already have experience, so we should be able to deal with it."

"These puzzles are becoming more and more complicated." Ye Li frowned and said, "But we can definitely solve them."

As the exploration deepened, everyone gradually discovered some hidden secrets and clues. Not only did they solve puzzles one by one, but they also found many ancient relics that might help them better cope with challenges in the next adventure.

"It seems that we are lucky." Wang Hao smiled, "We have found some useful clues."

"Yes, these clues may come in handy in the final test." Qin Feng said, "Everyone keep working hard, we are not far from the goal."

As night fell, everyone found a safe place in the ruins to rest. They sat together and shared their experiences and gains of the day.

“It was a challenging day today,” Shadow said, “but we made a lot of progress.”

"Yes, we will continue to explore further tomorrow." Qin Feng said, "I hope we can find more useful clues."

In the quiet of the night, everyone fell asleep with expectations for the future. New adventures are waiting for them, and they are ready to meet all challenges.

At daybreak, they set out on their journey of exploration again, and continued to move forward with firm faith and endless courage. No matter what was hidden in the fog, they would meet every test in the future with the best condition.
