353: Groove, item?

Su Han and Bi Yao slowly moved along the walls of the hall, their gazes carefully sweeping over every inch of brick and stone.

Under the illumination of the bronze bell's light, the runes on the walls seemed to faintly flow with a mysterious aura, yet no matter how hard they tried to look, those runes remained like a Heavenly Book, difficult to decipher.

Bi Yao's fingers gently traced the patterns on the wall, her heart full of questions, and she softly murmured:

"What secrets do these runes hide? Why does the light of that bronze bell connect with them?"

Su Han slightly furrowed his brow, his gaze solemn, while keeping an eye out for potential dangers around them, he said:

"Perhaps these runes are the key to unlocking the hall's secrets, we just haven't found the right method yet."

As they walked, they suddenly discovered that the arrangement of runes in one spot on the wall was slightly different from other areas.

That section of runes formed a roughly circular pattern, and in the center of the circle, there was a small indentation. The shape of the indentation was extremely peculiar, not appearing naturally formed, but rather deliberately crafted by human hands.

Su Han and Bi Yao exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of surprise and anticipation in each other's eyes.

"Su Han, do you think this indentation is used to place something?"

Bi Yao guessed.

Su Han nodded, "Very likely, but we don't know what to look for to put into this indentation yet."

They began searching everywhere within the hall, hoping to find an item that matched the indentation.

However, after searching the entire hall, they found nothing except the cold stone pillars and rune-covered stone slabs.

Just as they were starting to feel a bit discouraged, Su Han suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen a strangely shaped stone in a forest outside the hall earlier.

One end of that stone was also round, and perhaps it would fit this indentation.

He told Bi Yao about this idea, and her eyes lit up, "Then let's hurry out and look for it!"

The two cautiously walked out of the hall. The sky outside had gradually darkened, and a strange silence permeated the surroundings.

Relying on their memory, they walked towards that forest.

Along the way, Su Han held his sword tightly, constantly alert to the movements around him, while Bi Yao followed closely behind him, a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

Finally, they arrived at that forest.

Su Han carefully searched the forest, not missing any corner.

Bi Yao also helped with the search, but after searching for a long time, they still couldn't find any trace of that stone.

Just when they were starting to feel a bit desperate, Bi Yao suddenly spotted a circular object under a bush. She quickly ran over, pushed aside the bush, and found that it was indeed the stone Su Han had mentioned.

Bi Yao excitedly picked up the stone and called out to Su Han, "Su Han, I found it!"

Su Han quickly walked over, took the stone, and examined it carefully.

One end of the stone was indeed round, and its size was very similar to the indentation on the hall wall.

They couldn't wait to return to the hall and came before the wall inscribed with the circular rune pattern.

Su Han slowly placed the stone towards the indentation. The moment the stone touched the indentation, the entire hall suddenly vibrated violently.

The runes on the walls glowed brightly, and the light, like living creatures, began to flow and intertwine on the walls.

Su Han and Bi Yao were startled by this sudden change. They quickly retreated a few steps, leaning close together, and watched their surroundings warily.

As the vibration intensified, cracks also began to appear on the ground, and beams of light shot out from the cracks. (End of Chapter)
