Chapter 263 The Secret of Dragon Valley

On a distant and ancient continent, there is a mysterious place surrounded by mountains, which people call Dragon Valley. Legend has it that there are secrets left by the ancient dragons, and anyone who dares to explore will gain unprecedented wisdom and power. On this day, adventurer Bennett and his friend Mika stood at the entrance to Dragon Valley, ready to uncover this eternal mystery.

Bennett is a middle-aged man with a thick beard and bright eyes. He always wears a worn expedition hat and a sharp sword hanging from his waist. Mika is a petite but smart female thief. Her eyes are like the brightest stars in the night sky, always shining with intelligence.

They passed through a dense forest and came to a huge stone gate. The stone gate was engraved with strange symbols, as if it was some kind of ancient language. Bennett gently touched these symbols, and a glimmer of excitement flashed in his eyes.

"Look at these symbols, Mika, they seem to be the code that guides us in." Bennett whispered.

Mika looked at it carefully and nodded, "I see, these symbols represent the wisdom of the ancient dragons. We must touch them in the correct order to open this door."

After some deliberation, the two finally found the correct order. As the last symbol was pressed, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a staircase leading underground. They smiled at each other, mustered up their courage, and stepped onto the stairs.

As they went deeper, the air was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere. They came to a huge cave. In the center of the cave was an altar made of pure gold, on which was placed a gem that emitted a soft glow. Bennett and Mika walked closer and found that there seemed to be a miniature dragon shadow sealed in the gem.

"Is this the legendary Dragon's Heart?" Mika exclaimed.

Suddenly, a low voice sounded in the cave, shaking the entire space: "Who dares to disturb my eternal sleep?" The voice seemed to come from deep underground, full of majesty and anger.

Bennett and Mika turned around and saw a huge dragon slowly rising from the other end of the cave. Its scales shone with a metallic luster, and its eyes were as hot as lava.

"We are adventurers who come in search of wisdom and power," Bennett said loudly, his voice not shaking at all despite facing such a powerful creature.

The dragon was silent for a moment, then looked at them with its deep eyes: "I admire your courage, but to gain my power, you must prove your wisdom."

Then, the dragon proposed three puzzles, each of which was related to the mystery of the universe and the true meaning of life. Bennett and Mika assisted each other and solved the puzzles one by one with their wisdom and deep understanding of the world.

After witnessing their wisdom, the dragon smiled with satisfaction: "You have proven your worth, and I will grant you my power."

As the dragon's words fell, the dragon shadow sealed in the gem flew out, turned into a ray of light and merged into Bennett and Mika's bodies. They felt a powerful force surging in their bodies, and at the same time they gained unprecedented wisdom.

"Thank you for your gift. We will use this power to bring more light to the world." Bennett and Mika said in unison.

The dragon nodded, and then disappeared into the cave in a puff of smoke. Bennett and Mika knew that their adventure was far from over, but at this moment, they were ready for more challenges.

With their newfound strength and wisdom, they set out on their return journey. The sun shone through the cracks in the forest onto them, and their shadows stretched long on the ground, just like the journey they were about to face, infinitely extended and full of infinite possibilities.
