Suddenly, the monster let out a furious roar, a sound so loud it seemed to shake the entire space.
Immediately afterwards, its huge claws slammed into the ground like Mount Tai crushing an egg.
The ground was instantly blasted open with deep cracks, from which countless sharp spikes shot out, raining down on the three of them.
Seeing this, Qin Feng dared not be negligent in the slightest. He quickly formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
Suddenly, an earthen wall rose up in front of him, several meters high, like an impregnable fortress, forcefully blocking the sky full of earth spikes.
At the very moment the monster attacked, Qinglan seized this rare opportunity.
She flashed like a ghost, instantly appearing beside the monster.
The longsword in her hand flashed through the air, piercing straight towards the gaps in the monster's scales.
With a "thud," the longsword pierced the monster's body without any resistance, and the monster immediately let out a painful roar.
It swung its body violently, trying to fling Qinglan away.
Caught off guard, Qinglan was flung away by the monster's powerful force and crashed heavily into the wall in the distance.
However, just as the monster turned to attack Qinglan, Qin Feng suddenly noticed an astonishing detail—a faint ball of light appeared on the side of the monster's body when it attacked!
Although the ball of light was extremely small, it stood out conspicuously against the monster's enormous body.
Qin Feng's heart skipped a beat. He immediately realized that this ball of light was likely the key to breaking the illusion array in front of him!
With that thought in mind, he unhesitatingly channeled the divine power within his body, pushing his speed to its limit, and like a bolt of lightning, he charged straight toward the monster's side.
The monster seemed to realize Qin Feng's intention and tried to turn around to defend itself, but Qin Feng was too fast and it didn't have time to react.
In the blink of an eye, Qin Feng had arrived in front of the ball of light.
Qin Feng took a deep breath and concentrated all his strength into his right fist.
He roared and, with all his might, threw a powerful punch at the ball of light.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the ball of light shattered instantly under the impact of Qin Feng's fist, turning into countless rays of light that scattered in all directions.
At the same time, the surrounding scenery seemed to have been disrupted, and began to distort violently.
Qin Feng felt as if the world before him was spinning, as if the entire space was about to collapse.
However, this feeling did not last long.
After a short while, the surrounding scenery finally returned to calm, and the three of them returned to the place where the original rune array was located.
Qinglan scanned the surrounding environment, carefully observing every detail.
Her eyes were sharp and keen, not missing a single abnormality.
After confirming that there was no potential danger around, she gently patted the dust off her body, then slowly walked to Qin Feng's side, stood quietly, her expression calm, as majestic as a mountain.
Lingzhi, who had been hiding behind Qin Feng, peeked out somewhat timidly.
Just then, a dazzling light suddenly flashed in front of them, like the dawn breaking, instantly illuminating the entire space.
Immediately afterwards, a mysterious passage slowly emerged, as if it had been born from the void.
A strange light emanated from the passageway, like stars in the night sky, twinkling faintly but strikingly, as if silently beckoning them.
Qin Feng stared at the passage that had appeared before him, speculating, "Could this be the passage into the ruins?"
Qinglan and Lingzhi were also drawn to the passage, their eyes fixed on it as if trying to glimpse the secrets hidden deep within through the mysterious light.
Qinglan said softly, "I think so?"
Qin Feng hesitated for a moment, then took a step and walked towards the passage.
Seeing this, Qinglan and Lingzhi followed without hesitation.
The moment the three stepped into the passage, an ancient and powerful aura rushed towards them like a torrent.
This aura is ancient and profound, as if it carries the weight of time and history.
The stone walls on both sides of the passage are covered with densely packed mysterious runes. These runes emit a faint light, like stars in the night sky, adding a touch of mystery to the entire passage.
As they ventured deeper into the passage, the surrounding runic light grew increasingly dazzling, as if it were illuminating the entire passage.
At the same time, the mysterious aura grew stronger, making people feel as if they were in a completely unfamiliar world.
As they continued forward, suddenly the ground of the passage began to shake violently, as if some enormous force was surging underground.
Immediately afterwards, sharp spikes suddenly bulged up from the ground, like rows of fangs, sending chills down one's spine.
Faced with this sudden turn of events, Qin Feng reacted with exceptional speed.
He immediately released his divine power, forming a solid shield in front of him, tightly protecting Qinglan and Lingzhi behind him.
These spikes came quickly and went quickly. When they stopped attacking, a huge stone gate appeared in the road ahead.
The stone gate looked unusually heavy, covered with strange patterns, and exuded a powerful restrictive force.
Qin Feng stared at the patterns on the stone gate, carefully observing the details.
After a while, he seemed to discover some clues; there seemed to be some kind of runic pattern among these patterns.
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow slightly, then channeled all his divine power and, following the pattern he had discovered, touched the design on the stone gate.
The moment his fingers touched the stone door, a powerful force emanated from it, but Qin Feng remained calm and made no move, continuing to touch it according to the established pattern.
Finally, through his tireless efforts, the stone door slowly opened, revealing a mysterious space behind it.
A strange light flashed in Qin Feng's eyes. This ruin was far too bizarre.
He hesitated for a moment, then led Qinglan and Lingzhi into the mysterious space.
A thin layer of purple mist permeated the mysterious space, making it difficult to see the whole picture.
A series of low, rumbling roars could be faintly heard from within the mist, as if some terrifying being was lurking there.
Qinglan gripped her longsword warily, while Lingzhi followed closely behind Qin Feng, her hands unconsciously clenching the hem of her clothes.
Qin Feng circulated his divine power to dispel the mist in front of him, and a huge purple demonic beast appeared before them.
This monstrous beast resembled a Qilin, but had three tails, each shimmering with an eerie light. Its eyes, like burning purple flames, stared intently at the three of them.
Before they could react, the monster pounced at lightning speed.
Qin Feng immediately cast a defensive spell, protecting Qinglan and Lingzhi behind him.
Qinglan seized the opportunity and swung her longsword at the demonic beast. The beast nimbly dodged, and with a sweep of its tail, the powerful force knocked Qinglan back.
Seeing this, Lingzhi chanted an incantation, and runes flew from her hands, shooting towards the demon beast.
The monster roared, and a purple shield emanated from its body. The runes struck the shield, only causing ripples.
