Elder Chen narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the surrounding environment. Suddenly, he exclaimed: "This... there seems to be a huge treasure hidden here!"
When everyone heard the word "treasure", their eyes lit up, and a nervous and excited atmosphere spread.
Grandma Lin rubbed her hands excitedly and murmured to herself: "Treasure... there is really treasure..." Doctor Zhang analyzed calmly: "It seems that we accidentally discovered a great place."
Xiaohong held the hand of the man in white and whispered, "Be careful, it feels very strange here." The man in white patted her hand gently, indicating that she could feel at ease.
Just as everyone approached the stone platform and was about to carefully check the pearl, a tall figure suddenly walked out of the darkness.
He was burly, wearing black armor, holding a huge battle axe in his hand, exuding a powerful aura.
Everyone was startled by the sudden change and took a few steps back.
"Who is it?" Zhao Blacksmith asked with courage.
The treasure guardian said in a muffled voice: "The trespasser will die!" Before he finished speaking, he waved his battle axe and attacked everyone.
Everyone avoided one after another. Zhao Blacksmith couldn't dodge. He was swept by the battle axe wind and flew backwards, fell heavily to the ground, and spit out a mouthful of blood from his mouth.
"Brother Zhao!" Luo Xiaoyu exclaimed, trying to rush forward, but was pulled by Xiaohong: "Don't go over, it's too dangerous!"
Seeing this, the man in white stood up again. At some point, a long sword appeared in his hand. The sword light flashed and collided with the treasure guardian's battle axe.
The surrounding space flickered due to the collision of spells, making roars.
"Go away!" The man in white shouted to everyone while resisting the attack of the treasure guardian, "I'll hold him back!"
Xiaohong watched the fierce battle between the man in white and the treasure guardian, and her heart was filled with worry. She grabbed Luo Xiaoyu's hand tightly and said, "He... he won't be in trouble, right?" Luo Xiaoyu shook her head, her eyes were full of anxiety, "I don't know... this guardian looks so strong..."
The treasure guardian waved his giant axe, and every attack was filled with the power of breaking mountains and cracking stones, and the air was filled with a suffocating sense of oppression.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Every collision between the battle axe and the sword blade burst out with a harsh metallic impact, which made everyone's eardrums hurt.
The man in white has a flexible body, and his sword light is shuttled like a dragon, but he has never been able to break through the airtight defense of the treasure guardian.
Seeing this, everyone used their own means to try to help the man in white.
Liehuo waved the spear in his hand and wanted to restrain the treasure guardian, but he was shocked by an axe and hit the stone wall. He groaned and blood was leaked from the corner of his mouth.
Elder Chen chanted a spell and tried to trap the treasure guardian with a spell, but was shattered by the powerful aura emitted by his body, turning into starlight and dissipating.
The red light flashed, and the eyes were getting closer and closer, and a fishy smell spread out.
Everyone held their breath, cold sweat oozed out of their palms, and their hearts were beating wildly.
The passage is narrow and the space for circling is limited, and everyone's steps are getting heavier, as if they are filled with lead.
Xiaohong held the corners of the man in white tightly, her knuckles turned white and her body trembled slightly.
The darkness was like thick ink, wrapping them up, and I couldn't see my five fingers.
The depressing atmosphere was suffocating and even breathing became cautious.
The walls on both sides of the passage are rough and cold, with occasionally drops of water, which is particularly clear in the silence, adding to a tense atmosphere.
"Swish!" Several black shadows rushed out of the darkness like ghosts, at an astonishing speed.
Everyone didn't even see their appearance clearly, they only felt a flash of cold light and the sharp blade was approaching their eyes.
"Ah!" Luo Xiaoyu screamed in surprise, almost hit by a knife.
Doctor Zhang reacted quickly and waved the sword in his hand to block the attack.
"Be careful, everyone! It's the Shadow Assassin!"
The battle broke out instantly, and the swords and swords in the narrow passage were deafening.
The Shadow Assassin is agile and has a fatal move.
Although Liehuo Kong Wu was powerful, his fists were hard to match four hands. If he was not careful, a blood mark was cut on his arm.
"Brother Li!" Luo Xiaoyu exclaimed. Everyone's hearts sank, and the situation was critical.
The man in white looked shaking, and he made a gesture in his hand. A white light flashed, and a protective cover enveloped everyone.
"Back back!" he shouted softly.
The light of the protective cover flashed, blocking all the assassin's attacks.
The space was filled with the light of spells, illuminating a small area around it and illuminating the hideous faces of the assassins.
Doctor Zhang looked around nervously, holding the sword in his hand tighter.
Assassins seem to be constantly rising, and the attacks are getting more and more fierce...
The man in white looked solemn, and fine beads of sweat oozed out from his forehead.
"It won't work..." he whispered.
Shadow Assassin came like a tide, as if it was endless.
The swords and swords intertwined, and a net of death was woven in the narrow passage.
Everyone was struggling and gradually lost their energy.
Sweat soaks the clothes and breathing becomes rapid.
The sentiment of despair spreads like a plague, covering everyone's heart.
"If this continues... we will all die here..." Lieun Lieuten gasped, and the wound on his arm was still bleeding.
At this moment, an assassin walked around Grandma Lin and stabbed her with a knife.
Luo Xiaoyu was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and pushed Grandma Lin away, but she was stabbed.
Blood gushed out, dyeing her clothes red.
"Luo Xiaoyu!" everyone exclaimed.
Luo Xiaoyu's face was pale, blood was overflowing from the corners of her mouth, and her body slowly fell down.
Grandma Lin hugged her, and she burst into tears.
"Silly kid...why are you doing..."
The depressing atmosphere was almost suffocating.
Xiaohong looked at her injured companion, tears rolling in her eyes.
She bit her lip tightly, preventing herself from crying.
Could it be...
Are you really going to die here?
Just when everyone thought they could only fight to the death and fought until they died, the mysterious old man who had been silent suddenly moved.
He flashed, and he came to the wall on one side of the passage, and his fingers quickly stroked the wall.
A strange light flashed, and a rune on the wall instantly dimmed.
At the same time, the originally orderly Shadow Assassin suddenly became chaotic, attacking each other, and even killing each other.
Everyone looked at this scene in surprise, not understanding what was going on.
"Their actions... are related to these runes..." The mysterious old man spoke slowly, his eyes deep, "Just destroy these runes..."
"Wait..." The man in white suddenly spoke, staring at the old man with his eyes tightly, "Who are you...?"
Taking advantage of the chaos of the shadow assassins killing each other, the man in white seized the opportunity, and the magic tricks in his hand changed, and white lights shot out like sharp arrows, accurately hitting several assassins.
They screamed and turned into black smoke and dissipated.
Seeing this, everyone was greatly inspired, and their originally desperate mood was wiped out, replaced by excitement and hope.
Zhang Langzhong's sword technique is fierce and his moves are fatal. Each sword swing takes away the life of an assassin.
Li Liehu endured the pain, waved his fists, and knocked down the approaching assassins one by one like a tiger going down the mountain.
Blacksmith Zhao swung the iron hammer and the force was heavy, making the assassin cry and cry.
Everyone's faces were filled with confident smiles again, encouraging each other, as if the space around them also became brighter because of their emotions.
"Try harder and eliminate all these guys!" Li Lieun shouted excitedly.
Luo Xiaoyu endured the pain and cheered everyone: "Be careful, victory is right in front of you!"
They became more and more courageous in the battle, and defeated the Shadow Assassin step by step.
The assassins' originally orderly attacks became chaotic and defeated.
Screams and weapons colliding one after another, echoing in the narrow passage.
Blood splattered, dyeing the ground red, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
The battle gradually subsided, and only corpses and a strong smell of blood remained in the passage.
The man in white carried the injured Luo Xiaoyu on his back with gentle movements. Xiaohong looked at the man in white. Grandma Lin took out a handkerchief and carefully bandaged Li Liehuo's wound. Her eyes were kind and full of warmth.
Everyone tried their best, but they were like shaking a tree, unable to shake the treasure guardian at all, and their despair spread in everyone's hearts.
"Xiaohong, be careful!" Luo Xiaoyu exclaimed and pushed Xiaohong away.
At this moment, the treasure guardian's battle axe swept across with a bitter wind. In order to protect Xiaohong, Luo Xiaoyu was hit hard. She flew backwards like a kite with a broken string and hit the stone wall heavily. With a "wow", she spit out a mouthful of blood, which dyed the collar of her chest red.
"Xiaoyu!" Xiaohong exclaimed, not caring about her safety, and hurried to Luo Xiaoyu and helped her up.
Luo Xiaoyu's face was pale and her breath was weak. She moaned in pain, and bursts of pain came from her chest.
Xiaohong looked at Luo Xiaoyu's scarred appearance, her heart was filled with guilt and anger, and tears rolled in her eyes.
She grabbed Luo Xiaoyu's hand tightly, and her nails were almost snatched into the flesh.
Just when everyone was at a loss and thought that today was doomed, a crisp sound broke the silence in the cave. "Enough, stop." Everyone looked in the sound and saw a girl in an emerald green gauze dress slowly walking out of the rune light.
She has soft waist-length hair and a pair of big, smart eyes, like an elves in the forest, full of mystery and aura.
In her hand, she held a scepter with a glowing light, and a crystal clear gem was inlaid at the top of the scepter, emitting a soft light.
The treasure guardian heard the girl's voice and paused slightly in his hand. His huge body slowly turned his head and looked at the rune spirit.
The rune elves said something to the treasure guardian. The voice was very small and everyone did not hear it, but it can be seen that the treasure guardian's expression had changed, and his originally fierce gaze gradually became softer.
"Why?" the treasure guardian asked in a low voice.
The rune elves shook their heads and did not answer him. Instead, they turned around and said to Xiaohong and the others, "Come with me, I know what you want." After she said that, she turned around and walked into the depths of the cave. Everyone looked at each other and hesitated for a while, but followed.
The treasure guardian slowly lowered the battle axe, and the originally violent aura retreated like a tide, replaced by an inexplicable calm.
He said in a rough voice: "Since the rune elves allow you, you can choose a treasure as a reward." As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned at first, and then they burst into a shocking cheer, and the surprise was beyond words.
They looked at each other in disbelief, their eyes flashed with a greedy and exciting light, as if they had seen countless gold, silver and jewelry.
Grandma Lin was so excited that her hands were trembling, and Luo Xiaoyu jumped up even more excitedly, and even the pain on her body seemed to have been relieved a lot.
Everyone followed the rune elves to the depths of the cave.
The eyes suddenly became clear. A huge space appeared in front of everyone. Countless treasures were piled up like mountains, and the golden light almost dyed the entire space into glory.
All kinds of rare treasures emit dazzling light and shine with a diamond-like luster.
The air was filled with rich energy fluctuations, and it seemed that every treasure contained amazing power.
Xiaohong widened her eyes and her mouth opened into an "O" shape. She had never seen such a spectacular scene. Those legendary treasures were now placed in front of her.
Everyone couldn't wait to rush into the treasure pile and greedily selected.
Luo Xiaoyu grabbed a dagger with blue light without hesitation. The blade was covered with exquisite runes, emitting a burst of cold air. It was cold and made her love unwilling to let go.
Blacksmith Zhao picked up a dark war hammer, with a ferocious beast head carved on it, as if it contained infinite power. He waved it excitedly a few times and made a deafening roar.
Li Liehuo chose a piece of armor with a simple shape and wore it on his body, feeling full of strength.
Grandma Lin carefully picked up an ancient wooden stick, which emitted a soft light, as if it could soothe her heart.
Elder Chen carefully read a scroll with an ancient aura.
After everyone selected treasures that they were satisfied with, their faces were filled with unconcealed joy, as if they had picked up a huge advantage.
They feel that their strength can be improved a lot and are full of confidence in their future adventures.
The surrounding space also seemed to be brighter because of their joy, and every corner shone with the light of hope.
The man in white gently stroked Xiaohong's hair and comforted her wounded heart.
Xiaohong leaned obediently in the arms of the man in white. Luo Xiaoyu looked at this scene and showed an envious smile on her face. She silently blessed this happy lover in her heart.
Others also cast envious eyes, the entire cave was filled with a warm and harmonious atmosphere, and the originally tense emotions were comforted.
Just as everyone was immersed in joy and was about to leave with the treasure, the rune elf's face suddenly changed. Her tone was low, with a hint of undetectable trembling, "You... shouldn't take these... things..." Before the rune elf finished speaking, a strange sound came from the depths of the cave, like some kind of ancient giant beast slowly awakening, which made people feel heart-pounding.

Before she finished speaking, a strange sound came from the depths of the cave, like some kind of ancient giant beast slowly awakening, which made people feel heart-pounding.
The mysterious old man's eyes stayed in a corner of the cave for a moment. He slowly walked forward and pointed to a seemingly smooth stone wall. "There is a hidden passage here." Everyone was stunned when they heard the sound, and their eyes looked in the direction of the mysterious old man's finger. Sure enough, the stone wall gradually revealed a gap under the light of the rune.
"Is there really a hidden channel?" Luo Xiaoyu shouted excitedly, her face full of curiosity and expectation.
Although Grandma Lin is older, her curiosity is not inferior to that of a young man. She asked cautiously: "Where is this passage leading to? Will it be dangerous?"
The mysterious old man replied calmly: "This passage leads to a more mysterious place where there are bigger secrets and more treasures. But at the same time, it may also be a more dangerous place." His voice was filled with a seriousness that cannot be ignored, as if warning everyone not to act rashly.
Xiaohong felt a stern in her heart. She pulled the sleeves of the man in white and asked in a low voice: "Are we really going?" The man in white nodded slightly, with a firm light flashing in her eyes, "Since you are here, you need to find out."
Everyone discussed it with each other, but finally decided to continue exploring.
They have both a desire for the unknown and a vigilant against danger.
Grandma Lin picked up the ancient wooden stick in her hand and chanted the spell in a low voice. The air was filled with a faint fragrance, which seemed to relieve a little tension.
Seeing this, the rune elf smiled slightly. She waved the scepter in her hand gently, and the hidden passage slowly opened. A mysterious light shone out from the gap, indicating the new challenges that she was about to face.
Everyone took a deep breath and resolutely stepped into the hidden passage.
There was a strange light in the passage, which was completely different from the golden light outside. It was more like some kind of ancient runes emitting a faint and mysterious light.
Xiaohong felt a cool breath, as if the air in the passage had been purified. She relaxed a little, but she still maintained a high level of vigilance.
At this moment, Luo Xiaoyu suddenly stopped and her ears caught an unusual sound.
She whispered, "Listen, this sound..." Everyone immediately calmed down and listened intently.
A sound similar to a water droplet came from the passage, but when you listen carefully, it seemed like some kind of low breathing, as if something was waiting for an opportunity to move in the dark.
The light in the passage became darker and darker, and the feeling of danger became stronger and stronger. Luo Xiaoyu held Xiaohong's hand tightly, with a hint of trembling in his voice, "Let's... go quickly, something is wrong here."
At this moment, a low roar suddenly came from the depths of the passage, as if some kind of ancient giant beast had finally awakened, and everyone's hearts seemed to be tightly held by an invisible hand, almost jumping out of their chests.
