Chapter 179 The World Beneath the Altar

Upon hearing Qin Feng's words, Jiang Shaoxu, Lingling, and Apas all stopped in their tracks, their eyes immediately falling on Qin Feng.

Apas closed her eyes slightly, concentrating on sensing her surroundings, trying to detect any unusual signs.

A moment later, she opened her eyes and shook her head: "Really? I didn't sense any danger."

"Perhaps I'm mistaken," Qin Feng said.

Despite saying that, he dared not relax in the slightest.

Since making a contract with Ibrahimovic, his intuition has never been wrong, and every premonition has been verified.

The feeling was just as strong this time, as if some unseen threat was lurking around them.

...

After walking several kilometers through the golden desert, Lingling suddenly stopped.

She took out a map and photos and compared them carefully for a long time before finally pointing to a seemingly ordinary sand dune, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"Qin Feng, can you remove the sand there?" Lingling asked, her voice tinged with excitement.

"No problem," Qin Feng replied, a flash of silver light appearing in his eyes.

In an instant, an invisible force emanated from him, and the sand on the entire dune was manipulated by this force, scattering in all directions like flowing water.

As the sand settled, a small altar made of obsidian gradually came into view, gleaming coldly in the sunlight.

Lingling quickly stepped forward, squatted down beside the small altar, and rapidly explored every corner.

Soon, a look of surprise appeared on her face: "Found it, this is it!"

"Follow me!" Lingling said excitedly, then ran three hundred meters east of the altar, stopping at a seemingly ordinary spot. Pointing to the sand beneath her feet, she said:

"Qin Feng, the place beneath my feet most likely contains a large altar, and this altar is related to the mysterious totem!"

Hearing Lingling's words, Qin Feng nodded: "Okay, you guys stay away."

After Lingling and the others retreated to a distance of more than 100 meters, Qin Feng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

In an instant, his spiritual power poured out like a tidal wave, the spiritual power of the eighth realm surged around him, and his eyes completely turned silver, like two dazzling stars.

The desert beneath our feet trembled slightly.

Immediately afterwards, at the spot Lingling pointed to, a huge sand vortex with a diameter of thirty meters appeared out of thin air.

Countless grains of sand were swept into it, as if swallowed by an invisible force, disappearing without a trace.

The sand swirls and rises in the vortex, eventually disappearing without a trace; the whole process is both beautiful and terrifying.

A moment later, a magnificent altar gradually appeared before Qin Feng's eyes. It was a hundred meters wide and was carefully built from ancient stones, with complex and mysterious runes engraved on its surface.

Qin Feng withdrew his spiritual power and let out a long sigh, but his expression became increasingly solemn.

With the appearance of this altar, his sense of crisis grew heavier, as if an unseen eye was watching them.

As Lingling saw the great altar gradually appear, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she carefully jogged over.

After testing the waters and confirming that there were no dangerous energy fluctuations on the altar, he stepped onto it with peace of mind.

Jiang Shaoxu followed Lingling onto the altar.

Besides Lingling, she is probably the one who knows the totem best here.

Even her brother Jiang Shaojun had never set foot here, and she was very curious about what secrets were hidden here!

...

"This isn't it...this isn't it either...I've found it! This is it!"

Lingling's voice echoed in the silent air as she excitedly shouted, pointing to a special ground painting.

Upon hearing the shouts, Qin Feng, Jiang Shaoxu, and Apas immediately hurried towards Lingling's direction.

When they arrived at Lingling's side, several exquisite ground paintings came into view.

Despite the passage of time, these geoglyphs remain lifelike, as if they were just completed.

The ground painting depicts a horse-like creature with tiger stripes and a red tail, its posture both agile and mysterious.

"What kind of creature is this? It looks so strange?" Apas asked curiously, her eyes full of doubt.

"This is a Deer-like creature!" Qin Feng, Jiang Shaoxu, and Lingling answered almost simultaneously.

"Lu Shu? This doesn't look like a deer at all?" Apas was still confused, her brows furrowed, clearly puzzled by the discrepancy between the name and the appearance.

"Lushu is not actually a deer; it's just that its name contains the character for 'deer'," Jiang Shaoxu explained.

Her gaze inadvertently drifted towards Qin Feng, her voice carrying a barely perceptible gentleness:

According to ancient records, the deer-like creature can bring blessings to humankind, making their descendants more numerous and prosperous.

Qin Feng noticed Jiang Shaoxu's gaze and, with a hint of teasing, transmitted his voice, "Are you really that eager to give me a big, healthy son?"

Upon hearing Qin Feng's words, Jiang Shaoxu's cheeks flushed instantly, and she quickly looked away from Qin Feng.

Qin Feng didn't continue teasing Jiang Shaoxu, but instead asked Lingling, "Lingling, did the higher-ups say that Lu Shu is still alive?"

Lingling examined it carefully and then shook her head:

"No, this only records that the Lu Shu once appeared in this area and gathered a relatively prosperous tribe here because they were willing to protect humans."

The latest novel is first published here!

"But the good times didn't last long. It seems that due to the war, this place suffered irreversible destruction, turning from a paradise full of grasslands and mountains into the barren desert it is today."

"And the deer-like creature was also wounded in that war, and this altar was built for it to recuperate."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shaoxu couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that most of the deer have either died or migrated."

Qin Feng nodded, and as he pondered his next move, Apas suddenly let out a surprised cry:

"Look, there seems to be a hidden door here!"

Everyone immediately turned their attention to the place Apas was pointing to.

There was indeed a barely noticeable square gap there, and on the block was a device that looked like a handle.

Apas took a deep breath, reached out and grasped the handle, then pulled hard.

"Click~"

With a soft mechanical sound, the hidden door was slowly lifted, revealing a dark opening.

Jiang Shaoxu stared at the dark hole, a hint of uncertainty in her voice: "Qin Feng, should we go down?"

Qin Feng frowned; his intuition told him that something important must be hidden down there.

However, the sense of crisis lingered in my heart.

"We definitely have to go down, but we need to be fully prepared!"

As Qin Feng spoke, he summoned Eevee and Flame Princess.

"Bubu, Xiaoyanji, protect Lingling and the fox," Qin Feng said, pointing at Lingling and Jiang Shaoxu.

"Eevee!" Eevee responded cheerfully, landing lightly on Lingling's shoulder.

"Ling~!" Yan Ji also let out a clear chirp and gracefully landed on Jiang Shaoxu's shoulder.

When Apas noticed that Qin Feng had overlooked her, she pursed her lips slightly, her bright eyes fixed on Qin Feng as if silently protesting, "You're treating me differently!"

Qin Feng rolled his eyes, picked up Apas, and said to Lingling and Jiang Shaoxu, "Let's go!"

After saying that, Qin Feng took the lead and jumped into the dark cave with Apas.

...

The cave was exceptionally deep. Qin Feng descended two hundred meters with Apas before finally touching the ground.

After landing, he quickly looked around and cautiously checked the surrounding environment.

He was now in a huge cavern, the walls of which were covered with minerals that emitted a faint blue glow, making the whole space slightly illuminated.

In the center of the cave, there lay a huge white scorpion with not a single blemish on its body.
