Chapter 1593: A Door Away



"ah!"

The dark space, the fear and anxiety when facing the unknown, can devour people's hearts the most. I don't know where it rolled to, I only heard a dull "bang" sound, and it finally fell to the ground.

The others were like dumplings being dropped into the air, falling everywhere with bangs.

Liu Feiqing hurriedly took out the fire starter from his arms and lit it.

A tiny flame jumped out, and in an instant, countless dazzling reflective lights rose up, stimulating everyone to subconsciously raise their sleeves to block them.

So bright!

He paused for seven or eight seconds, waiting for his eyes to adjust to the intensity of the light. Then he squinted his eyes and gradually opened them. He saw that this was a very long underground passage. The walls of the passage were hung with palm-sized bronze mirrors and a luminous pearl was embedded high on the wall.

Its light was reflected by these bronze mirrors one by one, spreading into the depths of the passage. It was so bright that it seemed to have no end. Nothing could be seen clearly in the aperture at the farthest point, as if an unknown danger was hidden there.

"Are we... here?" A young man looked at the scene excitedly.

I never thought there was such a big mystery hidden under the desert. This is where our ancestors buried the treasure. If we find it, we will be rich enough to rival a country!

He grabbed his sword and stepped forward hastily.

Snap——

“Be careful!”

Just as he took a step and stepped on a stone, a long arrow shot out from the wall and pierced the man's forehead.

He didn't even have time to scream and died on the spot.

Everyone was in panic. They were extremely alert, tense, and looked around vigilantly. They didn't even dare to move their feet, for fear of accidentally touching the secret mechanism.

After all, these are things left by our ancestors. We can't just open the door and let anyone take them.

"Everyone be careful!" Liu Li said in a deep voice, "Liu Feiqing, you and the Jiang family's people will cover the rear, and I and the head of the Yang family will go in front to open the way. How do you think?"

"Liuli, you stay behind, let me and Patriarch Yang handle the dangerous stuff." Liu Feiqing raised his sword and left with Patriarch Yang.

The younger generation walked in the middle, while Liuli and the Jiang family walked at the end to avoid emergencies.

A team of about twenty or thirty people formed a long line and moved forward.

"Watch your step."

"Follow our footprints and don't touch anything else!"

Liu Feiqing seriously reminded the people behind him that they should test with their swords or throw a small stone forward every time they took a step. Occasionally they would accidentally trigger the mechanism, but it would be safe to pass by after the mechanism was closed.

The group moved forward very slowly.

In the middle, a nervous young woman sprained her ankle and tilted her body. She subconsciously supported herself on the wall with her hands, but was cut in half by the big knife that came down from the top. The blood was dripping, and the others screamed in fear.

The team was in chaos, the mechanisms were touched, and swords were shot everywhere. By the time they passed this place, only eighteen people were left out of the twenty-eight.

Most of the survivors were injured. Their faces were solemn. If they made any more mistakes, they would lose their lives.

It's a matter of life and death, and it's no joke.

They continued to move forward, experiencing dangers such as ghost walls, broken bridges, reptiles and ferocious beasts. Everyone was covered in scars and finally arrived at the end, in front of a huge stone gate.

The stone gate is carved with dragons and phoenixes, as well as ancient and complex patterns. After years of vicissitudes, it is covered with thick dust. Two large door handles and iron rings hang there, making it look very huge, majestic and noble.

arrive!

Just a door away, just one step away!
