Chapter 584
Just then, the altar suddenly trembled violently.
Everyone quickly turned around and saw that the runes on the altar shone brightly. The runes, which were originally still, seemed to have been given life and began to flow slowly.
As the runes flowed, a passageway entrance emitting a faint glow gradually appeared in the center of the altar.
The entrance to the passage was surrounded by strange runes that shimmered with a mysterious light, as if telling ancient secrets.
A faint light emanated from the passage, illuminating a small area around it, yet it also gave the impression that a mysterious force was hidden within, drawing people to explore.
The group exchanged glances, their eyes filled with both tension and anticipation.
They knew that this passage was likely the entrance to the location of the ancient gods, but it might also conceal more unknown dangers.
"Is this the passage to the location of the ancient gods?"
The fat man swallowed hard, his voice trembling slightly as he spoke.
His face showed a hint of fear, but also a hint of curiosity.
After the battle, he was filled with awe for the mysterious passage, yet he couldn't resist the urge to explore it further.
"Whether it is true or not, we have already come this far, there is no turning back."
Zhang Qilin gripped the Black Gold Ancient Sword tightly, his eyes resolute as he spoke.
His voice was deep and powerful, revealing a fearless courage and determination.
In his view, since they had already embarked on this dangerous path, they had to forge ahead, no matter what awaited them.
Zhang Hao nodded, his gaze fixed firmly on the entrance to the passage, and said:
"Everyone, please proceed with caution and remain vigilant. We don't know what might be inside the passage, so we must be fully prepared."
With that, he took the lead and walked towards the entrance of the passage.
Everyone took a deep breath and followed closely behind Zhang Hao, slowly walking into the passage.
Their figures appeared somewhat blurry in the dim light, as if they were about to step into an unknown world.
As they entered, the runic light at the entrance of the passage gradually dimmed and eventually disappeared, leaving only darkness to envelop them.
As soon as they stepped into the passage, a damp and rotten smell hit them, as if an invisible hand was tightly gripping their throats.
On the walls on both sides of the passage, a faint and eerie light flickered, like will-o'-the-wisps, casting distorted and grotesque shadows on everyone's figures.
"Everyone be careful, there's definitely something hidden in this passage."
Zhang Hao spoke in a deep voice with a solemn expression.
His eyes were sharp as he vigilantly scanned his surroundings, not missing a single subtle movement.
Each step was taken with extreme caution, as if a deadly trap might be triggered beneath one's feet at any moment.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Qilin, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped. His eyes instantly became sharp, staring intently at the ground in front of him.
There was a slightly raised stone slab on the ground, which looked out of place with the surrounding ground.
Zhang Qilin subconsciously sensed that a great danger was hidden behind this stone slab.
Just then, the fat man curiously moved forward to see what was going on.
His movements triggered the stone slab, and with a "whoosh," a sharp arrow shot out from a hidden hole in the wall, its target the fat man's chest.
"careful!"
Zhang Hao reacted quickly and shouted loudly.
At the same time, he flashed forward like a black lightning bolt.
Just as the arrow was about to hit the fat man, Zhang Hao suddenly tackled him to the ground.
The arrow grazed their bodies and embedded itself in the wall on the other side of the passage with a muffled "thud".
"Phew, it's so dangerous!"
The fat man was panting heavily, his forehead covered in beads of sweat, still shaken.
