"Thank you for your hard work, Ling Xiao is really amazing! You are worthy of being my partner. I knew you could do it..."
Gu Qingze did not hesitate to praise Chu Lingxiao, as if he had transformed into a "human praise group". The words of praise surged towards Chu Lingxiao like a tide, making Chu Lingxiao feel a little embarrassed.
"Alright, alright, let's save those compliments for later."
Chu Lingxiao slowly turned his face to the side, his movements seeming a little unnatural.
If you ignore his shy expression, he really looks like he's about to discuss something important, not just trying to change the subject...
Gu Qingze nodded and said in agreement.
"Although the issue of the mysterious black smoke has been resolved, we still haven't found a way to break this illusion."
"Then let's continue exploring deeper."
After Chu Lingxiao pondered for a moment, he made a decisive decision.
Ever since he established a connection with the statue in the temple, he had a vague feeling that his identity in this illusion was related to it.
However, he couldn't explain what the connection was, so he could only continue looking for clues.
The two then walked deeper into the temple, and the scenes along the way became increasingly mysterious and bizarre.
A strange light flickered on the ancient walls, as if whispering stories of the past.
As they walked, they came to the door of a secret room.
The door was tightly closed, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
"This place is quite suspicious. How about going in and taking a look?"
Chu Lingxiao asked for his opinion softly.
Gu Qingze nodded, his eyes full of vigilance. He had already made a plan to retreat and escape at any time if he found anything wrong.
He carefully reached out and pushed the door open, and a stale smell immediately hit him in the face.
Various ancient artifacts were placed in the secret room, one of which emitted a faint light.
When they got closer, they found that it was a tattered old book.
Chu Lingxiao picked up the book with a half-tentative look in his mind, opened the cover, and saw some strange symbols and words written on it.
"This may be the key to breaking the illusion."
Gu Qingze said judgingly.
"Maybe after I browse through it, I'll come up with the corresponding settings in my mind. I'll do it."
Chu Lingxiao volunteered and began to carefully study these symbols and words, trying to decipher their meaning.
Gu Qingze, who was standing aside, looked at him so seriously and sighed unconsciously.
Ever since he came to this temple, he felt helpless in many areas, especially the runes and spells that only Ling Xiao could understand, and he was completely unable to help.
As time passed, Chu Lingxiao's brows gradually furrowed.
"These symbols and words seem to be some kind of ancient spell, but I can't fully understand their meaning, and my mind no longer has any relevant settings."
Chu Lingxiao shook his head helplessly.
Gu Qingze gave him a reassuring smile, patted his shoulder gently, and suggested.
"It doesn't matter if you can't solve it. There's no need to embarrass yourself. Let's look for other clues first."
Chu Lingxiao nodded in agreement.
They continued to search for clues in the secret room and accidentally discovered some strange patterns carved on a wall.
