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

At this moment, Jiang Hua and Chen Le had already traversed hundreds of meters and entered the depths of the cave, which was now becoming increasingly spacious.

After walking a short distance inside, the view suddenly opened up, revealing a very wide passage with dense stone pillars on both sides.

"It seems this place is an underground palace." Jiang Hua muttered with some doubt upon seeing the passage.

"How could this be an underground palace?" Chen Le asked in confusion upon seeing the scene before him. He really hadn't expected this to be an underground palace.

After all, this place doesn't look like an underground palace; it looks more like a city.

"I don't know either, let's go in and take a look." Jiang Hua also shook his head, somewhat unsure about what was going on in the cave.

Upon hearing this, Chen Le nodded, and the two prepared to continue walking forward. Just as they were about to move forward, they suddenly noticed something strange about the stone beside them.

"Why does this stone seem to have changed so much?" Chen Le said with some doubt when he saw the stone. After saying that, he picked up the stone and examined it carefully.

"This stone seems a little different." Qin Feng also noticed the difference in this stone.

"It seems to be heavier than ordinary stones."

"It seems a little different too."

Chen Le and Qin Feng noticed the change in the stone and realized something was wrong, so they quickly spoke up.

At this moment, Jiang Hua also came over and carefully examined the stone in front of him.

"Look at the stone, it seems like there's an energy slowly pulsating about it!" Jiang Hua exclaimed suddenly after looking at the stone.

"Oh? Is that so?" Chen Le and Qin Feng quickly lowered their heads and carefully observed the situation, discovering that Jiang Hua was right.

There is indeed an energy fluctuation.

"This stone seems to have a mysterious energy fluctuation." Seeing this, Jiang Hua couldn't help but say with some surprise. Then, he examined the stone more carefully.

There was nothing special on the surface of this stone except for some strange patterns, and it was also covered with strange runes, as if someone had smeared them with their fingers.

“These runes seem to be some kind of demonic runes, but we don’t know what the specific rune patterns are.” At this moment, Qin Feng also noticed something was wrong, so he quickly said it.

"Demon runes? Are you sure?" After hearing Qin Feng's words, Jiang Hua asked doubtfully, and then carefully examined the stone again.

"I don't know, but there is definitely a trace of demonic aura on this stone."

“Alright, in that case, let’s try this place and see what’s different.” After looking at the rock in front of him, Jiang Hua nodded and decided to explore the cave.

Afterward, the two began to carefully examine the cave, studying it closely to see what was different about it.

"Hmm! Indeed, there is some demonic energy in this cave, and the demonic energy seems to be quite weak."

After the two carefully examined the place, Jiang Hua raised an eyebrow and said with some surprise, her face then showing astonishment. "So, this should be a demon clan's underground palace?" Qin Feng also said in surprise. Although he wasn't quite sure what kind of place this cave was, he could sense that it was definitely a demon clan's underground palace, and a demon clan's at that.

“This cave should be a demon's underground palace, and the terrain of this cave should also be similar to a formation. This cave is definitely a formation.” After listening to Qin Feng’s words, Jiang Hua nodded and gave a very definite answer.

"An array? Then this must be the entrance to the cave. If we destroy the array, the cave will open, and we can enter directly." Chen Le nodded and said.

“That’s right, the entrance to this cave is indeed right here!” Jiang Hua nodded after hearing Chen Le’s words.

"Alright, since that's the case, let's try to break down the entrance to this cave. I want to see what's so special about this cave!"

Chen Le nodded, then put down the stone in his hand, and then stretched out his right fist and punched the entrance of the stone.

Just as Chen Le's fist touched the stone, the stone emitted a muffled thud.

Suddenly, a large pit appeared on the rock, and then the pit gradually spread out, covering the entire opening little by little.

"This cave seems to have been deliberately made like this, apparently to conceal its secrets!" Chen Le frowned after seeing the cave entrance destroyed by his punch, and then said.

Hearing Chen Le's words, Jiang Hua nodded in agreement, then said, "This cave is indeed somewhat eerie!"

"I also think this cave is a bit strange. I wonder who made it look like this?" Looking at the huge cave in front of him, Qin Feng frowned and said to Yu.

"It seems that someone deliberately made this cave like this. The owner of this cave is obviously trying to cover up its secrets." After listening to Qin Feng's words, Jiang Hua nodded and then said.

Qin Feng nodded as well.

"Alright, that's about enough. Let's go in and take a look."

As he spoke, Jiang Hua jumped in first, followed by Chen Le.

Then, the three of them quickly ran into the huge cave in front of them.

Upon entering the cave, Jiang Hua discovered that it was surprisingly spacious, neither as dark nor pitch black as he had imagined; instead, it was brightly lit.

It was as if it were daytime, and apart from the sound of their footsteps and the rustling sounds around them, there were no other sounds.

Looking around, Jiang Hua couldn't help but feel surprised. He hadn't expected to find such a scene here, and it was indeed hard to believe that this place had once been an underground palace.

"Let's be careful and see if there are any traps or pitfalls." After looking around, Jiang Hua quickly reminded them, since the place was too open.

If one is not careful, one could slip and fall, so Jiang Hua has to be careful. Moreover, this underground palace is full of unknowns, so one must be cautious.

"I understand." Qin Feng nodded, and then he and Jiang Hua carefully walked forward. (End of Chapter)
