Hu Shu looked at Yang Jian and said firmly, "Since we have the same goal, let's uncover the true face of Mysterious Faction together." Yang Jian nodded and tightened his hands. Three-pointed, Double-edged Halberd in Three-pointed, Double-edged Halberd. The two of them stopped delaying and followed the direction of the alley, starting to pursue new clues. The moonlight lengthened their silhouettes, and they drifted further and further away in the silent alley. What awaited them ahead was the unknown challenge of Mysterious Faction.
Along the way, Hu Shu and Yang Jian carefully searched for the traces of Mysterious Faction based on the clues they had previously obtained from the man in black. They traveled through ZhaoGe City walked the streets and alleys, sometimes questioning passers-by, and sometimes observing the surrounding environment, not missing any suspicious areas. As the investigation deepened, they found that Mysterious Faction's activities seemed to be concentrated in the northwest of the city.
When they came to a remote mountain forest in the northwest of the city, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became gloomy. The originally bright moonlight was now blocked by layers of dark clouds, and only a few weak rays of light occasionally came out, forming mottled light and shadow on the ground. There was a damp and decaying atmosphere in the mountain forest, which made people sick. From time to time, there were gloomy wind sounds in the ears, as if countless ghosts were whispering in their ears.
"It feels very wrong here." Yang Jian clenched the weapon in his hand vigilantly and whispered. Hu Shu nodded slightly, with a solemn look in his eyes. "Be careful, this place should not be far from their stronghold." The two of them cautiously moved forward in the mountain forest, taking every step with extreme caution, for fear of triggering some mechanism.
Suddenly, Hu Shu stopped. He was keenly aware of a vague Spiritual Energy Fluctuation in front of him. Looking in the direction of Spiritual Energy Fluctuation, he saw a huge rock not far ahead. The surface of the rock was covered with strange lines, and these lines were faintly visible. There was a strange light shining under the weak moonlight. Hu Shu and Yang Jian looked at each other and slowly approached the rock. When they approached the rock, a powerful force of restriction rushed towards them. Hu Shu raised his hand and shot out a spiritual energy, trying to break this layer of restriction.
Under the impact of spiritual energy, the restriction rippled, but it was not easily broken. Seeing this, Yang Jian joined in and cast spells with Hu Shu. After some hard work, the restriction finally became loose. The two took the opportunity to pass through the restriction and came to the back of the rock. Behind the rock was a hidden cave, the entrance of which was shrouded in a layer of light mist, and bursts of mysterious aura came from the cave.
The two walked into the cave without hesitation. The cave was dark and damp, and the walls were inlaid with a few Night Pearls that emitted faint light, barely illuminating the way forward. The cave was filled with a pungent smell of sulfur, making it difficult to breathe. As they walked along the winding passage, they could hear the sound of water drops falling from time to time, which was particularly clear in the silent cave.
As he walked, a huge stone door appeared in front of him, which was also engraved with Mysterious Runes. Hu Shu carefully observed the runes, trying to find a way to open the stone door. At this moment, Yang Jian suddenly noticed movement behind him, and he quickly turned around and stared behind him warily. However, there was nothing unusual behind him, but a sinister atmosphere became stronger.
"Be careful of fraud." Hu Shu warned, while speeding up Cracking Rune. Finally, with Hu Shu's efforts, the stone door slowly opened, and a powerful spiritual power poured out from the door. The two walked into the stone door. He opened the door and found that there was a secret room inside. The walls of the secret room were covered with dense runes. These runes emitted a strange light and seemed to be beating with life. The flashing light of the runes reflected on the wall, casting strange light and shadow, making the entire secret room appear more mysterious and unpredictable.
Hu Shu approached the wall and observed these runes carefully. He could feel that these runes contained powerful power and seemed to hide major secrets. With his profound knowledge and rich experience, Hu Shu speculates that these runes may be related to a certain kind of Ancient Formation. This formation is extremely complicated and he has never seen it before, but judging from the aura emitted by the runes, this formation may be the key to Mysterious Faction interfering with his layout.
"These runes look very simple. They seem to hide some shocking secrets." Yang Jian also stepped forward and looked at the runes on the wall. Hu Shu nodded and said, "Yes, this should be An ancient formation that has been lost for a long time, but I can't determine its specific use yet." The two circled around the secret room, trying to find more clues about runes and formations, but apart from the runes on the wall, they found nothing else useful.
At this time, the atmosphere in the secret room became more and more solemn, and the strange aura emitted by the mysterious runes seemed to be getting stronger. Hu Shu and Yang Jian knew that they must decipher these runes as soon as possible and uncover Mysterious Faction's conspiracy, otherwise they would be killed by Mysterious Faction discovers their whereabouts, and the consequences will be disastrous. However, faced with such complex runes and unknown formations, how should they start? Mysterious Faction Has he noticed that the stronghold has been invaded and is heading here? Everything is like a fog, shrouding their minds.
