Chapter 79: The Mysterious Path
Lin Yu and his companions carefully shuttled through the long and narrow corridor, and in front of them, a heavy door came into view. This door looked older than any previous one, and the stone surface was severely weathered, revealing ancient patterns.
Li Yueran frowned and commented, "This door seems to be even harder to open."
Lin Yu stepped forward and looked at the door carefully. He noticed that the stone of the door was different from that of the wall, and it seemed to be made of some special material. There were strange patterns engraved on the door, which were very different from what he had seen before.
"These patterns..." Lin Yu whispered, "seem to be clues to opening this door."
He stretched out his fingers to check carefully, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, as if he had found the key.
"These patterns!" Lin Yu exclaimed in surprise, "They are very similar to the runes on the 'Heart'!"
As he spoke, he quickly walked to the altar and placed the "Heart" on it. The runes unexpectedly produced a wonderful resonance, fitting together like a lock and key.
"So that's it!" Lin Yu shouted excitedly, "'Heart' can not only open the mechanism, but also open this door!"
He carefully placed the "Heart" on the pattern on the door, and the door made a low roar and slowly opened, revealing a deeper passage.
"Let's go in." Li Yueran took the lead and walked into the passage.
Lin Yu followed closely behind, and Su Yao and Zhao Hao followed closely behind, and they entered the passage together.
The passage was dark except for a faint light coming from afar. They walked lightly, trying not to make any noise.
After walking several dozen meters, another door appeared at the end of the passage. This door was thicker and inlaid with gems.
"This door should be the gateway to the second level of the ruins." Li Yueran explained.
Lin Yu nodded in agreement: "Then let's do as Li Yueran said and go to the second floor to take a look."
Following the instructions on the mural, they came to a stone door. The door was closed, and a huge gem was embedded in it, emitting a faint glow.
"This door should be the entrance to the second floor." Zhao Hao pointed out.
Li Yueran walked to the stone gate and looked at the gem carefully. She found that the gem was engraved with runes that were different from before.
"These runes..." Li Yueran said to himself, "They should be the key to open the stone door."
She gently stroked the runes on the gem. Suddenly, the gem made a crisp sound, and the stone door slowly opened, revealing a passage leading to darkness.
"Let's go in." Li Yueran gestured.
Lin Yu and others stepped into the passage again.
The passage was narrow, only allowing one person to walk side by side. They moved forward carefully, avoiding making any noise.
After walking for about a few dozen meters, another door appeared at the end of the passage. This door was heavier and also inlaid with gems.
"This door should be the entrance to the second floor of the ruins." Li Yueran said affirmatively.
Lin Yu nodded: "Then let's go to the second floor as Li Yueran said."
Following the instructions of the mural, they came to a stone door. The door was closed, and a huge gem was embedded in it, emitting a faint light.
"This door should be the entrance to the second floor." Zhao Hao stated.
Li Yueran walked to the stone gate and carefully observed the gemstone. She found that the gemstone was engraved with runes that were different from the previous ones.
"These runes..." Li Yueran said softly, "They should be the key to open the stone door."
She lightly touched the rune on the gem, and the gem suddenly made a crisp sound. The stone door slowly opened, revealing a passage leading to darkness.
"Let's go in." Li Yueran said.
Lin Yu and others entered the passage again.
Just as they were about to enter the passage, a strong air current surged out from the depths of the passage, blowing them so hard that they could hardly stand.
"This is..." Li Yueran exclaimed.
Lin Yu looked and saw a huge whirlpool at the end of the passage, emitting a cold breath.
"This is the guardian of the ruins!" Zhao Hao shouted in horror.
He pushed Lin Yu away suddenly and stood in front of him.
"Protect Lin Yu!" Zhao Hao shouted loudly.
With weapon in hand, he rushed towards the whirlpool.
"Zhao Hao!" Lin Yu exclaimed.
He struggled to get up and wanted to rush over to support Zhao Hao, but was blown down again by the strong airflow.
"Lin Yu, be careful!" Su Yao exclaimed.
She grabbed Lin Yu's hand tightly and pulled him behind her.
"Let's go together!" Li Yueran shouted.
She also rushed towards the whirlpool with a weapon in hand.
……
Lin Yu struggled to stand up, watching Zhao Hao, Li Yueran and Su Yao fighting fiercely with the guardian in the vortex, his heart filled with anxiety and worry.
"I...I want to help too!" Lin Yu shouted.
He struggled to run forward a few steps, but was blown down again by the strong airflow.
"Lin Yu, don't go over there!" Su Yao shouted.
She grabbed Lin Yu's hand tightly and pulled him back.
"I can..." Lin Yu said.
"Don't talk!" Su Yao interrupted him, "You need to rest, you need to save your energy!"
……
At this moment, a powerful light burst out from the vortex, knocking the guardian back. The guardian let out a scream and turned into a black smoke and dissipated into the air.
"Huh..." Li Yueran panted and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the disappearing guardian.
"You...you..." Zhao Hao looked at Lin Yu and said in surprise.
"It's me..." Lin Yu said, "It's the power of the Heart."
He stretched out his hand and held the "Heart" in his hand.
……
Lin Yu and others entered the passage again.
At the end of the passage, a huge stone door came into view, with strange runes engraved on the door, which was very different from what I had seen before.
"This door..." Li Yueran said, "It should be the entrance to the core of the ruins."
She walked to the door and carefully observed the runes on it.
"These runes..." Li Yueran said to himself, "They should be the key to open this door."
She reached out her hand and gently touched the rune. Suddenly, the door made a roar and slowly opened, revealing a passage leading to darkness.
"Let's go in." Li Yueran said.
Lin Yu and others entered the passage again.
