Tan Daxia and Lei Dunzhu gradually felt overwhelmed and scars began to appear on their bodies.

Everyone was gradually forced to the corner and the situation was critical.

Suddenly, Liu'er pointed to an inconspicuous device on the wall and shouted loudly: "Chu Feng, look!"

When Chu Feng heard the sound, he saw a gear-shaped device on the wall flashing with a faint light, echoing the red light in the eyes of the puppet.

He instantly understood what Liu'er meant.

"This is the hub for controlling the puppet!" Chu Feng shouted, picked up the long sword in his hand, and slashed towards the gear device.

The sword energy was scattered, the gear device shattered in response to the sound, sparks flew everywhere, making a "crack" sound, and the puppet's movements also stagnated. The red light in his eyes gradually faded, and eventually turned into a lifeless bronze color.

"It's done!" Seeing this, everyone cheered and excited, and the joy of the aftermath of the disaster was beyond words.

"Miss Liu'er, thank you!" Tan Daxia excitedly bowed to Liu'er to thank him, and the others also expressed their gratitude.

Liu'er smiled sweetly and waved her hand modestly, "I just happened to find out, and everyone is working together is the key."

Everyone was very angry and full of hope for finding the secret treasure.

The man in white gently stroked Xiaohong's hair and said gently, "Don't be afraid, it's okay." Xiaohong snuggled tightly in his arms, his eyes full of dependence.

Everyone around can feel the deep love flowing between the two.

Chu Feng and Liu'er looked at each other and smiled, everything was indifferent.

Elder Zhao looked at everyone,

Everyone followed the clues they discovered before and continued to explore in depth.

Finally, in a hidden corner, they discovered a huge treasure chest.

The treasure chest is made of unknown metal, with complex patterns on the surface, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.

Is this the legendary secret treasure?

Everyone held their breath and approached the treasure chest with anticipation.

Just when everyone thought that the secret treasure was about to appear, the treasure chest suddenly released a powerful force, which shocked everyone.

"What's going on?!" Chu Feng stabilized his body and looked at everything that was happening in front of him in disbelief.

Everyone looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts.

This sudden change made them realize that things were far less simple than they thought...

"This treasure chest..." Elder Gu murmured to himself, staring at the treasure chest tightly,

The treasure chest stood quietly in front of everyone. The unknown metal material shone with a cold luster. The complex patterns on it squirmed like living things, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

An invisible force attracted everyone's gaze like an abyss, and it was like an invisible barrier that made people dare not approach it easily.

Everyone's faces were filled with awe and curiosity, and their breathing became cautious, and they were nervous and expectant. They were eager to uncover the secret of this treasure chest and obtain the legendary secret treasure.

Chu Feng took the lead in trying to find out the reality of the treasure chest.

However, when his palm was about to touch the treasure chest, a powerful force suddenly came, as if an invisible wall was standing in front of them, bounced him away.

Liu'er and others who followed closely also tried to get closer, but were blocked by the force without exception.

There was an invisible sense of oppression in the air, as if a giant beast was sleeping and could wake up at any time.

"This... what's going on?" Chu Feng stabilized his body, and everyone looked at each other and frowned. They felt that this treasure chest was absolutely extraordinary, and it was probably not easy to get the secret treasure in it.

At this time, an elegant middle-aged man walked out of the crowd, which was Mr. Gongsun.

His eyes were calm and with a hint of wisdom, he slowly walked to the treasure chest.

He stretched out his hand and did not rush to touch the treasure chest, but carefully observed the words and symbols carved on the treasure chest.

Those symbols twist like tadpoles, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

His brows became tighter and tighter, and his eyes became more and more serious, as if he was in deep thought.

Mo Xiaodie followed closely behind. She looked at the complicated symbols and fell into deep thought. She carefully picked up the paper and pen, copied the runes on the treasure chest, and tried not to miss any details.

As time passed by, Mr. Gongsun and Mo Xiaodie never spoke. One of them frowned and quickly deduced the meaning of the words and symbols in their minds. The other nodded and sometimes shook their heads, as if they were making a fierce self-debate.

"These words... seem to be inconsistent with the conventional arrangement of words," Mr. Gongsun whispered, his original thinking seemed to have encountered a bottleneck.

Mo Xiaodie was also a little confused about her judgment, "Master, I feel that this symbol... seems to be different from what we saw in ancient books before." There was a hint of uncertainty in her words.

Silence spread between the two, and the tension was like a tense string that could break at any time.

At this time, Doctor Hua, who had been watching the changes, walked to the two of them and said softly: "Don't be too nervous. Maybe you will find new discoveries if you think from another perspective. You are all smart people and you will definitely find the answer." Doctor Hua's words were like a clear spring, injecting into their anxious hearts.

Mr. Gongsun and Mo Xiaodie looked at each other, took a deep breath, turned their eyes to the treasure chest again, and began a new exploration.

At this moment, a slight "click" sound rang out, which seemed particularly harsh in the quiet atmosphere.

Everyone looked in the sound, but found that the treasure chest was still standing there quietly without any change.

The air around the treasure chest seemed to solidify, and was suffocatingly quiet.

As time goes by, a strange wave of energy emanates from the treasure chest and spreads like ripples. The air is filled with a faint sweet fragrance, mixed with a hint of decay that is not easy to detect.

Everyone felt that the scenery in front of them began to twist and change, the originally clear world became blurred, and a humming low sound came from their ears, like countless mosquitoes and flies flying in their ears, disturbing their minds.

The first ones affected were several warriors with lower cultivation levels in the team. Their eyes were blurred, their expressions were dazed, and they muttered to themselves, as if they had seen something terrible.

A thin warrior suddenly screamed, pointing to the empty place in front of him and shouting: "Monster! There is a monster!" He looked pale and trembled all over, as if he had really seen something terrifying.

"What's going on? What did he see?"

"Is it the guardian of the treasure chest?"

Everyone was confused and retreated one after another, staring at the surroundings with vigilance.

A tense atmosphere spread among the crowd, and everyone's nerves were tense, like a string that could break at any time.

At this time, Mr. Xing, who had been calm, also began to have strange phenomena.

His face turned pale, his lips trembled slightly. He pointed ahead and said in a trembling voice: "I...I see... so much blood... so many corpses..." He hugged his head suddenly and let out a shrill scream: "Ah! Don't come! Don't come!"

Mr. Xing's sudden change of behavior made everyone even more uneasy, and an inexplicable sense of fear enveloped everyone's heart.

In the confusion, the illusory scene gradually condensed, and monsters of strange shape emerged from the fog.

Some of them have three heads, some are like giant pythons, and some are like wriggling pieces of meat, emitting a disgusting fishy smell.
