The Secret of Ancient Books
Everyone gathered around, their eyes fixed on the yellowed ancient book in Lin Yu's hand. The director took a deep breath and said in a low and serious voice, "Open it carefully and see what is written inside." His eyes were full of anticipation and nervousness, as if this ancient book was the key to unlocking the mystery.
Lin Yu gently flipped open the pages of the ancient book, and a stale aroma filled his nostrils, a scent that seemed to carry the sediment of time and countless secrets. As the pages turned, a subtle rustling sound was heard, remarkably clear in the silent cave. They discovered that the text was ancient and obscure, the strokes twisted and complex, like a mysterious spell, as if it were a long-lost secret language.
"What kind of writing is this? I can't understand it at all," Suna said anxiously. Her voice was filled with anxiety and uneasiness. Her brows were furrowed tightly, and her eyes were fixed on the strange words, trying to find some familiar traces in them, but in the end she shook her head in disappointment.
Just when everyone was confused, Lin Yu suddenly said: "I seem to have seen similar words in a book on ancient book research. Let me think about it..." His eyes became focused and deep, as if he had fallen into the abyss of memories.
Lin Yu closed his eyes, trying to recall what he had seen. Time passed, and the surroundings became so quiet that only the tense breathing of the crowd could be heard. The atmosphere in the cave grew increasingly solemn, and every breath seemed to carry a heavy pressure.
Suddenly, Lin Yu opened his eyes and said excitedly: "I remember! This is an ancient witchcraft text." His voice broke the long silence and lifted everyone's spirits.
When everyone heard this, hope ignited in their eyes, as if they saw a ray of light in the darkness.
Lin Yu began to interpret the ancient text, his voice echoing through the cave with a mysterious rhythm. "It states that the mysterious woman is no ordinary human, but a descendant of an ancient witch clan. The witch clan, once a powerful group possessing magical powers and mystical abilities, gradually declined due to internal strife and power struggles."
"And this giant python with a cockscomb is the evil force that was sealed by the witch clan back then. It is said that the inner elixir of this giant python contains endless dark energy. Once it is obtained by evil people, the consequences will be disastrous." Lin Yu's voice trembled slightly, and his forehead was covered with sweat. It was obvious that the process of interpretation was not easy.
"This woman came to seize the inner elixir in order to revive the witch clan. But if she is corrupted by the dark forces, the revival of the witch clan may bring disaster to the world." Lin Yu continued, his eyes full of worry.
"What should we do? If she truly revives the witch tribe, will it pose a threat to us?" Suna said worriedly. Her hands clenched unconsciously, her eyes filled with fear. "We have always worked hard to maintain world peace and stability, and we cannot allow such a danger to occur."
After a moment's contemplation, the director said, "We must find that woman and have a proper conversation with her. We can't let her be controlled by evil forces." His voice was firm and powerful, revealing an unquestionable determination. "We must make her understand that power should be used for justice, not to bring destruction."
Everyone nodded in agreement, with determination glittering in their eyes.
At this moment, a deep roar suddenly erupted from the depths of the cave. It sounded like the roar of an ancient beast, filled with endless rage and fury. The entire cave began to shake violently, and debris fell, hitting the ground with a dull thud.
"Oh no! There might be more danger here!" Elder Li shouted. His voice was filled with tension and vigilance. He quickly cast a defensive spell, and a layer of light blue light enveloped everyone.
Everyone immediately became alert, preparing for the impending, unknown crisis. Lin Yu gripped his sword tightly, leaning forward slightly in a defensive stance. Suna, hiding behind the others, her heartbeat rapidly as she silently prayed for safety.
The director looked sharply into the depths of the cave and shouted, "Everyone, be careful! Don't lose your composure!"
As the roar grew closer, a powerful aura washed over them. A massive figure gradually emerged from the darkness. It was a gigantic monster, its body as massive as a hill, covered in sharp thorns, its eyes gleaming blood-red.
"What kind of monster is this?" someone exclaimed.
The monster opened its bloody mouth and spewed out a stream of black flames that swept over in an instant.
"Get out of the way!" Elder Zhang shouted.
Everyone quickly scattered to avoid the flames as they passed by, bringing with them a burst of burning air.
"Attack it together!" the director shouted.
Everyone unleashed their spells and skills, sending colorful lights shooting towards the monster. The monster roared and waved its huge claws, trying to fend off the attacks.
Lin Yu rushed in front, the sword in his hand flashing with cold light, he leaped up and stabbed at the monster's eyes. The monster sensed his attack and turned its head to avoid it, but Lin Yu's sword still left a deep scar on its face.
The monster became even more angry and attacked everyone madly. The battle in the cave became more and more intense.
Suna watched nervously from the side, constantly cheering everyone on: "Come on, we must defeat it!"
The director cast a powerful spell, and a huge beam of light shot towards the monster's abdomen. The monster screamed and fell to the ground.
But it did not die. Instead, it struggled to stand up again, preparing to launch a final attack.
At this critical moment, Lin Yu discovered the monster's weakness. "Attack its neck!" he shouted.
Everyone gathered their strength and attacked the monster's neck. The monster finally couldn't bear it and fell to the ground with a loud bang, and there was no movement anymore.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground exhausted.
"We have to leave here quickly and continue looking for that mysterious woman." said the director.
They packed up their things and continued on their journey full of unknowns.
