Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

However, as Yun watched Qin Feng go up and untie the object, he stood there, looking at Jiang Hua, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Because he always felt as if he had forgotten something, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was, or what was wrong with his memory. This feeling was the most confusing and even bewildering.

"Impossible, is there something you've forgotten, or has your memory been erased? Let's be honest, back in the Nine Dragons Palace..."

Although he didn't know exactly what was wrong with Yun, Jiang Hua was willing to share what he had encountered before in order to see if they could find a solution.

“I’ve also encountered this problem. It seemed like some kind of evil spirit altered the memories in my mind. But after it reappeared, everything returned to normal. However, your problem is very different from the one I encountered before, because mine was much more serious.”

Jiang Hua didn't seem to be joking. After he shared his personal experience, Yun was quite moved, but now seemed like not the time to be moved.

Because Qin Feng had already moved the acupoints that appeared in this place, and had already triggered the mechanism.

At the very top, in the place of Xuanwu Xuanguan, something has already been erected.

Looking at the Xuanwu Pass before them, the terrifying door had already opened. Although this place looked like a door, it was actually not a door at all; rather, it resembled a window. Jiang Hua and the other two waited nervously in place, all staring into that terrifying thing.

A strange thing emerged, and Jiang Hua and the other two finally breathed a sigh of relief, because what appeared before them was a small snake that didn't seem to be venomous. It was completely black, but strangely, they couldn't see its eyes.

"What's with this black snake? I've never heard of encountering something like this in a tomb before. Why did that Xuanwu Pass just now put up such a thing?"

Qin Feng had been on high alert and was prepared to fight the enemy with all his might, after all, he didn't know why they had opened the Qilin Gate.

Upon arriving here, they sensed the extreme danger, with terrifying killing intent lurking everywhere, though it wasn't out in the open. So, they could only prepare themselves mentally for the potential battles that might come.

As Jiang Hua watched Qin Feng and Yun pondering something, he frowned and took two steps forward. Standing in front of the small black snake, Jiang Hua felt as if he had seen it somewhere before.

"Have you noticed this small black snake? It seems to have appeared in our captain's handbook before?"

Although he had just walked towards the small black snake, Jiang Hua seemed to have figured something out and began to retreat stealthily step by step. However, Qin Feng and Yun, having heard Jiang Hua's earlier warning, exchanged a curious glance.

As everyone shook their heads, they saw that in the direction Jiang Hua had gone, the small black snake suddenly began to tremble violently, its previous shivering turning into a constant shaking, as if it had been struck by lightning.

"What exactly happened? How did this little black snake become like this? And its body is trembling. Was it struck by the lightning talisman? But I didn't take out the lightning talisman."

As Yun watched the small black snake tremble, she was on high alert. Jiang Hua, who was standing nearby, heard Yun's warning but remained silent.

Instead, he was on edge, ready to strike if the small black snake dared to make a move, showing it just how serious the consequences of offending him were. But just as the three of them were on edge, the small black snake, after trembling for a moment, suddenly exploded.

They were all watching the other's exploding body, the black energy inside it was completely released and began to spread outwards. As it spread outwards, Jiang Hua could clearly see the poisonous substances emanating from the black energy.

"You two be careful. When this little black snake explodes, the black gas inside its body will release poisonous gas."

Jiang Hua first glanced behind him, then reminded Qin Feng and Yun before putting on his mask to dispel the poisonous gas around him. Upon hearing Jiang Hua's reminder, Qin Feng and Yun immediately reacted and began to dispel the poisonous gas around them using their own methods.

"boom!"

However, just as one problem was about to disappear, the black mist began to rise again. Just as it was about to vanish, they saw the ceiling above their heads, the same ceiling they had seen when they entered.

They were so focused on the entrances of the four sacred beasts—Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—that they didn't even notice what was above their heads. But now they realized that things had developed in ways that were beyond their wildest imaginations.

"Is that a Qilin?"

When Jiang Hua and his group were ready, they looked up and saw the strange creature on the ceiling. They recognized it as the same thing they had seen in the passage before they entered the gate.

Kirin!

"What's going on? Logically speaking, when we entered this place, the Qilin gate felt very evil, not like an auspicious symbol."

Before Jiang Hua and his group entered this space, when they were still outside, they felt something was very strange about the gate. The aura emanating from the gate was not what one would expect from an auspicious sacred beast.

The opposite is a product of evil. However, at that time, Jiang Hua and his group were eager to enter this place because they were being pursued. After they actually entered the place, they found that things seemed to be more serious than they had thought.

The current problem forces them to be extremely cautious, because if they make a mistake, the consequences could be far more serious than what is happening now.

"Ow!"

Just as Jiang Hua and Qin Feng were pondering how to deal with the Qilin monster that had fallen from the ceiling, Yun suddenly screamed. Jiang Hua and Qin Feng, who were still preparing, looked to the side when they heard Yun's scream.

Suddenly, the Qilin appeared out of nowhere and pounced towards Yun. Yun was the weakest of the three, and faced considerable pressure dealing with this monster. (End of Chapter)
