Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

They know that this is just the beginning and there will be more unknowns waiting for them to explore in the future.

Lin Ze believes that as long as they face difficulties bravely and remain firm in their beliefs, nothing can stop them from moving forward.

No matter how many obstacles lie ahead, they will move forward bravely and meet every test.

Because they are a group of fearless adventurers, and their story has just begun...

In a dense forest, they discovered a mysterious relic.

The ancient walls were engraved with strange symbols, revealing the traces of time. Lin Ze carefully observed these mysterious symbols, his eyes flashing with curiosity and concentration.

He knew that there must be important information hidden behind these symbols, but it was not easy to unlock their secrets.

Just then, a low roar was heard from the ruins, making everyone alert.

Then, a group of ferocious monsters emerged from the dark corners, with their fangs and claws bared, and launched a fierce attack on the adventurers.

The adventurers immediately entered combat mode, working closely together to give full play to their skills and advantages.

Warriors wield sharp swords, mages unleash powerful magic, and assassins flexibly shuttle between enemies and deliver fatal blows.

After a thrilling battle, the adventurers finally defeated the ferocious monsters.

They panted tiredly but with a sense of accomplishment, and their eyes once again looked into the depths of the ruins.

In the deepest part of the ruins, they were surprised to find an ancient and precious book.

The pages of the ancient book have turned yellow, and are densely covered with some strange words and patterns.

When they opened the ancient books, a mysterious power came over them.

This ancient book seems to record a powerful magic, which is powerful enough to change the entire world.

This discovery excited the adventurers, who realized that this might be the key to a more powerful realm that they had been looking for.

With new hopes and goals, the adventurers carefully put away the ancient books and continued on their journey.

They knew that there were countless challenges waiting for them ahead, but this discovery gave them the motivation and courage to move forward.

They were determined to follow the clues in the ancient books and explore.

During the rest of the journey, the adventurers met a mysterious old man.

The old man told them that the magic recorded in ancient books was not easy to master, and required a series of difficult tests and practice.

The adventurers accepted the challenge without hesitation. They went deep into the steep valleys, crossed the vast desert, and faced the baptism of strong winds and huge waves.

Along the way, others were looking around vigilantly to prevent any accidents.

After some effort, Lin Ze successfully deciphered the meaning of the runes. He touched the runes on the door in a specific order, and the door slowly opened, revealing a passage shining with strange light before them.

At the end of the passage, a magnificent palace stood before them. This palace was tall and solemn, with precious gems and gorgeous decorations inlaid on the walls. The adventurers entered the palace with anticipation and nervousness.

As soon as you enter the hall, the first thing that comes into view is a huge statue. This statue is tens of meters tall, holding a staff shining with mysterious light, standing there majestically. Its face is lifelike, as if it is watching every intruder.

Under the statue, there were several treasures emitting powerful magic. These treasures flashed with strange light, attracting the attention of adventurers. However, just as they were about to go forward to check, sharp alarms suddenly sounded all around.

The alarm sounded throughout the hall, making people shudder. Then, a mysterious force emerged from all directions, tightly binding the adventurers. They found themselves unable to move, their bodies suppressed by an invisible force.

A cold voice echoed in the air: "How dare you enter the forbidden area? Accept your punishment!" This voice was full of anger and majesty, which frightened the adventurers. They realized that they were in a desperate situation, but they were powerless to resist.

The adventurers are facing an unprecedented crisis. They must find a way to break free and deal with the upcoming punishment. They begin to think about how to break through the difficulties and look for clues to solve the mystery. Time is running out, and they need to find a way out as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

Lin Ze shouted, "Don't panic, let's concentrate together to break through this force!" Upon hearing this, the other adventurers calmed down and used all their strength to circulate the spiritual power in their bodies, trying to break free from the restraints.

After a while, there was a "bang" and the adventurers successfully broke free from their restraints. They panted and looked at each other with a hint of joy in their eyes.

"That force just now seems to have come from the statue, let's destroy it first!" Lin Ze said as he rushed towards the statue. However, when he approached the statue, a powerful force threw him away.

"Let me try!" Another adventurer cast a defensive spell and slowly approached the statue. This time, he successfully approached the statue and found a small hole on the base of the statue.

"This seems to be the source of energy!" he shouted. Everyone gathered around and discussed countermeasures.

"Let's cast a spell together to attack this small hole and see if we can break it!" Lin Ze suggested. So the adventurers worked together to launch an attack. The brilliant magic lights intertwined and rushed towards the small hole.

With a loud bang, the statue exploded, and the power that bound everyone dissipated. The adventurers breathed a sigh of relief, but they had no time to celebrate, because a greater crisis was waiting for them...

The smoke cleared, revealing a staircase leading to the next level.

The adventurers looked at each other with vigilance in their hearts. They knew that the real test was still ahead.

Going down the stairs, they came to a mysterious underground maze.

The maze was intricate and full of various mechanisms and traps. However, the adventurers did not retreat, and they moved forward cautiously.

Suddenly, a low roar came from the front.

A gigantic monster appeared in front of them. Its body was so huge that it exuded a suffocating aura.

The adventurers immediately started fighting, engaging in a life-and-death contest with the monsters.

The battle was extremely fierce, and every adventurer tried his best. Finally, after a hard fight, they successfully defeated the monster.

Next to the body of the monster, they found a mysterious key.

This key emits a faint light and seems to be the key to opening an important portal.

Holding the key, they continued to explore the maze, looking for an exit.

After an unknown amount of time, they finally walked out of the maze and came to a huge door.

There were some strange runes carved above the door, and it was obvious that the key was needed to open it.

Lin Ze took a deep breath and inserted the key into the key.

With a click, the door slowly opened and a dazzling light shot out from the gap.
