God and Demon Killing Platform: I can summon the gods of China

The Nebula Sage suddenly exclaimed, took out a metal box wrapped in layers from his arms, and opened it carefully.

A palm-sized black stone slab lay quietly inside the box, engraved with densely packed runes, which were extremely similar to the runes on the barrier, only more complex and more ancient.

"This is... I found it deep in the nebula. I thought it was extraordinary, so I kept it with me."

The Nebula Sage held up the slate in front of everyone.

"Look, the runes on it and the barrier..."

Everyone immediately gathered around, carefully comparing the runes on the stone slab and the barrier.

The Star Knight's eyes widened, and his rough voice became gentle:

"Really... they are almost identical! Could this thing be the key to this damn place?"

The Messenger of Light also came forward to observe carefully, with a thoughtful look on his holy face:

"There must be some connection between the two. Perhaps this stone slab is the key to unlocking the barrier."

Zhang Cheng held Karinda's hand tightly, feeling the warmth of her palm, and a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart.

He looked at the Nebula Sage and asked in a deep voice:

"Wise man, do you know how to use this slate?"

The Nebula Sage did not answer immediately, but turned the slate over and over, with wisdom flashing in his eyes.

He stretched out his fingers and gently stroked the runes on the stone slab, feeling the ancient power contained therein.

"I need some time to research,"

He spoke slowly, his voice low and firm,

"Maybe... maybe we can really find a way out."

He raised his head and his eyes fell on the barrier, with a gleam in his eyes.

The Nebula Sage picked up the slate and walked towards the barrier...

The Nebula Sage placed the slate close to the barrier, and the runes on the barrier glowed with a faint blue light, as if responding to the ancient power on the slate.

Everyone held their breath and watched this scene nervously, as if time had stood still.

Only the flickering light of the barrier runes and the rapid breathing of the crowd echoed in the space.

Star Knight scratched his hair irritably and complained in a low voice:

"Is this old man capable or not? How long have we been wasting time here?"

The Light Messenger shook his head slightly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone:

"Be patient, the wise are doing their best."

His eyes fell on Zhang Cheng, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Although Zhang Cheng appeared calm on the surface, his clenched fists revealed his inner anxiety.

The mysterious elf flew around the Nebula Sage curiously, making a silver bell-like laugh, and seemed to be full of curiosity about everything in front of it.

Occasionally, she would rest her gaze on Zhang Cheng's shoulder and stare at him with her crystal clear eyes, as if searching for something.

Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone's strength was gradually consumed.

The Blue Star Guardian was pale and his body was shaking slightly. It was obvious that he could no longer hold on.

The star spirit walked silently to his side, emitting a gentle force to help him stabilize his breath.

A feeling of despair began to spread among the crowd.

The Star Knight punched the wall, making a dull sound:

"Damn it! We're all going to be trapped here to death!"

At this moment, Zhang Cheng, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke:

"Wise man, look at these two runes. Although their shapes are similar, their arrangement order is completely opposite. Could it be that..."

He pointed at the two runes on the stone slab and the barrier, his tone was slightly questioning but extremely firm.

The Nebula Sage suddenly raised his head, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

He carefully compared the two runes pointed out by Zhang Cheng, and a hint of excitement gradually appeared on his old face.

"You're right!"

His excited voice echoed in the space,

"These two runes are indeed the key!"

He brought the slate closer to the barrier again, and complex seals began to form in his hands...

The Nebula Sage's fingers danced rapidly on the stone slab, muttering to himself.

The runes on the stone slab glowed brightly, complementing the runes on the barrier.

The air was filled with powerful energy fluctuations, oppressing everyone's nerves.

"no!"

The Nebula Sage put down his hand dejectedly, his face turning even paler.

"I am not strong enough to fully decipher these runes."

The feeling of despair surged into everyone's hearts like a tide.

At this moment, Zhang Cheng stood up, his eyes firm and calm.

"Wise man, look at these two runes. Although they have similar structures, the directions of energy flow are completely opposite. If we can reverse the direction of energy flow in one of the runes, perhaps we can break this barrier."

Zhang Cheng's words were like a bomb, exploding in everyone's hearts.

The Nebula Sage was stunned for a moment, and then a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"You're right! Why didn't I think of that!"

He excitedly grabbed Zhang Cheng's hand.

"Young man, your powers of observation are truly amazing!"

The Nebula Sage followed Zhang Cheng's instructions and rearranged the runes on the stone slab.

This time, the stone slab emitted an even brighter light, and a powerful force surged out from the stone slab and rushed straight towards the barrier.

"It's now!"

The Nebula Sage shouted,

"Everyone, put your strength into this item!"

Everyone injected their own strength into a crystal ball handed over by the Nebula Sage.

The crystal ball shone brightly, emitting a dazzling beam of light that hit the rune on the barrier.

The runes on the barrier began to tremble violently, and cracks appeared.

"Quick! Work harder!"

Star Knight shouted excitedly.

Everyone gritted their teeth and poured their last bit of strength into the crystal ball. The cracks on the barrier grew larger and larger, and it was about to break completely.

"Click——"

With a loud bang, the barrier finally broke.

But just as everyone was cheering, several energy rays suddenly shot out from the cracks...

"careful!"

Lightbringer yelled.

Energy beams shot out like poisonous snakes, heading straight for everyone.

The Star Knight shouted loudly and swung the sword in his hand into a curtain of light, blocking all the rays of light attacking him and the Messenger of Light.

"Everyone be careful, this light is weird!"

Before he could finish his words, several rays of light brushed past his arms, instantly burning a charred hole in his clothes and leaving a bloody mark on his skin.

The Lightbringer summoned a light shield to block all remaining light.

"These rays contain powerful corrosive energy!"

His expression was solemn, and there were faint signs of corrosion on the surface of the light shield.

A ray of light flew past Zhang Cheng's ear, and the hot breath made his heart shudder.

At the critical moment, Clinda screamed and threw herself on Zhang Cheng, protecting him tightly.

"Zhang Cheng!"

Her eyes were filled with fear and her voice was trembling.

Zhang Cheng came back to his senses and patted Karinda gently on the back.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

He spoke softly to comfort her, feeling Klinda's trembling, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

"Everyone, be careful!"

The Blue Star Guardian warned in a deep voice, a halberd emitting blue light appeared in his hand, and he looked around vigilantly.

The mysterious elf hid behind the star spirit and curiously stuck his head out to observe the surrounding situation.

The Nebula Sage took this opportunity to continue manipulating the stone slabs, trying to completely destroy the barrier.

"Just a little bit closer!"

Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and his expression was focused.

The cracks on the barrier grew larger and larger, and the light became brighter and brighter, as if it would collapse at any moment. At this moment, the Nebula Sage shouted:

"It's done!"

With a loud bang, the barrier was completely shattered, and everyone's eyes suddenly became clear.

However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, a chill rose from the soles of their feet... The star spirit suddenly raised his hand, pointed forward, and a deep voice sounded:

"Be careful……"

The moment the barrier was broken, the suppressed energy fluctuations receded like a tide, and everyone couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"finally……"

Star Knight wiped the sweat from his forehead, his tone containing a hint of relief.

The Light Messenger dispersed his shield and looked around, still remaining alert:

"It looks like we succeeded."

"It's not over yet."

The Star Spirit's voice was low and calm. He pointed ahead, and everyone noticed that there was no smooth road behind the barrier, but a deep space. The ground was covered with intricate patterns and flashed with strange light.

"Is this... some kind of formation?"

The Blue Star Guardian narrowed his eyes, and the blue light of the halberd in his hand became brighter.

"Watch your step."

The Nebula Sage reminded weakly that breaking the barrier took a lot of his energy.

Zhang Cheng helped Clinda up, his eyes swept over the patterns on the ground, and a sense of uneasiness rose in his heart.

"These patterns...are like some kind of trigger mechanism."

The mysterious elf poked her head out from behind the star spirit and looked around curiously. She floated lightly above a pattern and curiously stretched out her finger to touch it.

"Don't touch it!"

Zhang Cheng quickly spoke out to stop him, but it was too late.

The lines touched by the mysterious elf lit up instantly, and then the surrounding ground began to shake, and several sharp blades shot out from the wall, attacking everyone.

"Get out of the way!"

Star Knight roared and pulled Lightbringer to the side.

Zhang Cheng picked up Kelinda and narrowly avoided a knife blade.

The Blue Star Guardian swung his halberd, knocking away the attacking blade, and said in a deep voice:

“This is just the beginning…”

Before he could finish his words, a crack suddenly appeared in the ground and a stream of hot magma gushed out.

Xing Ling raised his hand, and an invisible barrier blocked the eruption of magma. He looked at everyone with a serious expression:

"This place... is more dangerous than you think."

He paused, his eyes fell on the increasingly complex patterns on the ground, and whispered:

"Back off, everyone back off..."
