Although Su He and Lin Feng were well-read, they still felt somewhat overwhelmed when faced with these ancient symbols.

"These symbols seem to be describing a myth from ancient times."

It looks like a story of a hero fighting a dragon, but I've never heard of any of the characters or places mentioned.

Lin Feng sighed.

Just as the two were racking their brains, the mechanism at the cave entrance suddenly emitted a piercing sound!

Su He and Lin Feng were taken aback and quickly took a few steps back. They saw countless sharp hidden weapons shooting out from the mechanism, drawing sharp arcs in the air!

"Be careful!"

Su He pulled Lin Feng behind a boulder.

The hidden weapon struck the boulder, producing a crisp impact and sending countless sparks flying through the air.

"These mechanisms are definitely not just for show!"

Lin Feng said, still shaken.

The two peeked out from behind the boulder and examined the array and mechanisms at the cave entrance once more.

"These mechanisms were probably used to prevent foreign invasion."

Su He analyzed.

"But if we can break the formation, we might be able to find a way to control the mechanism."

The two resumed their study of the symbols, trying to find clues to break the formation.

However, this process remains fraught with difficulties.

Every time they think they've found a clue, they discover new doubts and contradictions.

The symbols seem to be constantly changing and rearranging, forming puzzles and traps.

"These symbols are like a maze!"

Lin Feng was already getting impatient.

"Every time we thought we had found an exit, we found it was another entrance."

"It seems that the person who set up this formation must be a meticulous master."

He not only considered the possibility of foreign invasion, but also set up numerous obstacles to prevent those destined to enter from easily.

Although the two felt somewhat discouraged, they did not give up.

Those seemingly chaotic symbols actually have specific meanings and positions.

Each symbol represents a key element in a story or legend, and their arrangement and combination hold the secret to breaking the formation.

"Brother Lin, look at this symbol, doesn't it look like a shield?"

Su He pointed to one of the symbols and said.

With his years of experience in studying formations, Su He quickly discovered the key to it.

It turns out that although these formations seem complicated, they are actually composed of several basic formations.

These basic formations were all familiar to Su He.

"Brother Lin, I've found a way to break the formation!"

Su He said excitedly.

Lin Feng quickly came over and saw Su He pointing to one of the symbols.

"Look, this symbol actually represents a Five Elements formation."

"And this symbol represents a Bagua formation."

"If we can find the key nodes of these two formations and then connect them in the correct order..."

Lin Feng suddenly realized, and continued Su He's words, "Then we can break the entire formation and open the entrance to the Heavenly Ruins!"

Su He nodded, and the two began to search for the key nodes in the array at the cave entrance, following Su He's instructions.

Soon, they found the key symbols for the Five Elements Formation and the Eight Trigrams Formation, and then connected them in a specific order.

In an instant, the array at the cave entrance emitted a dazzling light, and countless symbols and mechanisms began to rotate rapidly, recombine into a completely new pattern.

Su He breathed a long sigh of relief.

"These ancient formations are indeed extraordinary. If it weren't for my master's teachings, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to break them."

The two walked to the cave entrance and saw that all the mechanisms had disappeared, replaced by a deep passage leading to the interior of Tianxu.

"Let's go, let's see what treasures lie hidden in the Heavenly Ruins!"

Lin Feng said impatiently.

Su He nodded, and the two gripped their weapons and cautiously entered the passage.

Soon, they arrived at a huge cave, and the sight before them made them gasp in shock.

Inside the cave, ancient buildings and statues were everywhere. Although they were dilapidated, they still exuded a solemn and dignified atmosphere.

Towering stone pillars, exquisite murals, and ancient altars... all testify to the extraordinary history of this place.

"Is this the interior of Tianxu?"

"Judging from the style of these buildings, they should be relics from ancient times."

I just don't know what kind of secret is hidden here...

The two continued exploring and soon arrived at a huge square.

In the center of the square stands a tall stone statue. Although it is severely weathered, it is still clear that it is a majestic man holding a long sword and looking ahead.

"Could this stone statue be the master of Tianxu?"

Su He carefully examined the stone statue.

"It's very likely that, judging from the demeanor of this stone statue, it must have belonged to an extraordinary person."

Just then, a line of small characters suddenly lit up on the base of the stone statue, attracting the attention of the two.

"Sealed for millennia, only the sincere will find it..."

Su He read the words aloud, his brows furrowed.

"What does this mean? Does the treasure in the Heavenly Ruins have some special conditions?"

Lin Feng shook his head upon hearing this.

"Whatever the conditions, we've already come this far, we can't just leave empty-handed, can we?"

"That's right. Since we're here, let's find out."

The two continued forward and soon arrived at a wide corridor.

On both sides of the corridor are countless stone carvings and murals, seemingly telling an ancient legend.

Su He and Lin Feng carefully observed the stone carvings and murals, trying to find some clues.

These stone carvings and murals all seem to depict the story of a hero.

From his humble beginnings as an ordinary boy to his trials and tribulations, and finally to his great achievements… each scene vividly recreates the hero’s journey of growth.

"Could this hero be the master of Tianxu?"

Lin Feng guessed.

"It's very likely that, judging from these images, he must have experienced many extraordinary things."

Just as Su He and Lin Feng were immersed in the mysterious atmosphere of Tianxu, a strange sound suddenly came from behind them.

The two turned around warily, only to see more than a dozen stone statues that had appeared behind them at some point, approaching them in a strange manner.

"How can these stone statues move?"

Su He frowned.

"It seems that the mechanisms in this Heavenly Ruins are far more numerous than those at the entrance."

Although the stone statues looked clumsy, they moved with surprising agility, and in the blink of an eye, they surrounded Su He and Lin Feng.

"Be careful, these stone statues might be difficult to deal with!"
