God Slayer: Make Up for the Past

Senior Wei Night Watchman stopped and stared at the stone door with a serious look. "Behind this..." He reached out and touched the runes on the stone door. A chill instantly spread throughout his body. He abruptly retracted his hand, frowning. "This feeling... is not good."

Pan Yue stepped forward and carefully examined the runes. He pulled out his notebook and compared the information on it. "These runes... seem to be an ancient seal used to suppress some powerful existence."

"A powerful existence?" Chu Feng's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

"That's right," Researcher Xiong said solemnly, pushing up his glasses. "According to my research, this lair has a very long history, even dating back to ancient times. It's very likely that some extremely dangerous evil spirit is sealed here, perhaps even... the Queen of Evil Spirits."

"The Evil Queen?" Tong Yongshi took a breath and his face turned pale.

At this moment, a low roar came from behind the stone door, and the entire passage began to tremble. The runes on the stone door flashed with an increasingly dazzling light, as if they would collapse at any moment.

"Oh no, the seal is about to break!" Senior Wei Ye Shouren's face changed drastically, "We must find another way out as soon as possible!"

However, they had already penetrated too deep into the lair, and returning the same way was almost impossible. The tumors on both sides of the passage began to wriggle, and small evil spirits emerged from their cocoons, emitting sharp hisses and rushing towards them.

"Damn it!" Pan Yue cursed softly, drew out his dagger, and fought against the evil spirit that was rushing towards him.

Chu Feng also drew his sword and fought alongside Pan Yue. Senior Wei, the Night Watchman, protected Researcher Xiong and the Lu Sacrificial. Though untrained, the young warriors bravely wielded their weapons to battle the evil spirits.

The battle was extremely fierce, and everyone gradually felt exhausted. To make matters worse, their supplies were almost exhausted, and hunger and fatigue began to erode their will.

"We can't go on like this, we will be exhausted to death!" Chu Feng panted and swung his sword to kill an evil spirit that pounced on him.

"I know..." Pan Yue's face turned pale, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, "but we have no other choice now."

At this moment, Chu Feng suddenly felt dizzy, and everything in front of him became blurry. He felt a powerful force surging in his body, and he knew that this was a sign that his golden finger was about to be activated.

He clenched his teeth, concentrated his mind, and focused all his strength on his eyes.

For a moment, he seemed to see the scene behind the stone door: a huge space, with an altar standing in the center, and a figure tied to the altar...

"I know..." Chu Feng suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, "I know what to do!" Chu Feng took a deep breath, his tone firm and calm: "I know what to do! There is no dead end behind the stone door, but a huge space with an altar in the center..." He briefly described the scene he saw at the moment the golden finger was activated.

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with surprise and doubt. Pan Yue was the first to react. Although he knew something about Chu Feng's abilities, witnessing this near-future-predicting ability firsthand still shocked him. "Chu Feng, are you sure? This... this is simply unbelievable!"

"I'm sure." Chu Feng's eyes flashed with confidence. "Although what I saw was just a fleeting moment, I believe in my judgment. If we want to survive, we must trust me."

Senior Wei, the Night Watchman, had been observing Chu Feng. He saw extraordinary potential in this young Night Watchman. He pondered for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, Chu Feng, I believe you. Tell me, what should we do?"

Chu Feng pointed to an inconspicuous stone brick on the right side of the stone gate: "There should be a hidden mechanism there that can open a passage to the altar."

Everyone walked to the stone brick in doubt. Senior Wei, the night watchman, pressed the stone brick carefully. After a loud rumbling sound, the wall on the right side of the stone door slowly opened, revealing a narrow passage.

"It's true!" Pan Yue exclaimed, looking at Chu Feng with admiration. Researcher Xiong also rubbed his hands excitedly, his admiration for Chu Feng overflowing with words. Even Tong Yongshi, who had been a bit reckless before, now looked at Chu Feng with new eyes.

However, the scene inside the passage made them gasp. Rather than leading directly to the altar, the passage was filled with deadly traps. The ground was covered in sharp spikes, gleaming blades dangled from the walls, and the air was filled with a sickening, poisonous fumes.

"Damn, this is simply a maze!" Tong Yongshi couldn't help but curse.

"Everyone be careful!" Senior Wei, the Night Watchman, looked solemn. He drew his sword and walked at the front of the team. "Follow me closely. Don't miss a step!"

The light in the passage was dim, barely enough to make out the path ahead. Senior Wei, the Night Watchman, drawing on his vast experience, cautiously led the group forward, taking every step with extreme caution. He would sometimes use his sword to unlock hidden traps, sometimes reminding everyone to avoid the traps on the ground.

Suddenly, several poisonous arrows shot out from the walls on both sides of the passage. Senior Wei the Night Watchman reacted quickly and swung his sword to block the poisonous arrows one by one, but one of the poisonous arrows still grazed his arm, leaving a shallow wound.

"Senior Wei!" Chu Feng exclaimed and hurried forward to check on Senior Wei Watchman's injuries.

"It's okay," Senior Wei Ye Shouren waved his hand, "It's just a minor injury, don't worry."

However, at this moment, a creepy roar came from the depths of the passage, and then a huge evil spirit rushed out from the darkness... Senior Wei Yeren gripped the long sword in his hand, his eyes blazing, "Prepare for battle!"

A massive evil spirit, resembling a spider, its barbed limbs scratched the ground with a piercing sound. Smelly mucus dripped from its mouth, corroding the ground. Senior Wei, the Night Watchman, bore the brunt of the attack. His longsword swung with a series of sharp flashes, colliding with the evil spirit's massive limbs with a clanging sound.

"Its weak point is in the abdomen!" Chu Feng observed the evil spirit's movements and warned loudly. He understood that although Senior Wei was experienced, the level gap was huge, and a head-on fight would be extremely consuming.

Pan Yue immediately understood, and the short knife in his hand transformed into a streak of silver light. He nimbly circled behind the evil spirit and stabbed it hard at the soft part of its abdomen. However, the evil spirit's reaction speed far exceeded their expectations. With a sudden sweep of its massive limbs, Pan Yue was nearly hit and stumbled back a few steps.

"Pan Yue!" Chu Feng's heart tightened, and he quickly threw a flash grenade, briefly blinding the evil spirit and buying Pan Yue a chance to breathe. In the bright light of the explosion, Chu Feng activated time rewind. Just a few seconds, but it was enough to pull Pan Yue back from danger.

Senior Wei Night Watchman seized the opportunity, infused his entire spiritual power with the long sword in his hand, and fiercely stabbed it into the evil spirit's abdomen. The evil spirit let out a shrill roar, and its huge body collapsed with a loud bang.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The air in the passage was still murky and filled with a sickening odor. Researcher Xiong's face was pale, and his steps were unsteady, clearly exhausted.

"Mr. Xiong, are you okay?" Chu Feng asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's okay," Researcher Xiong forced a smile. "Just a little tired, nothing serious."

"Let me help you." Pan Yue walked over to Researcher Xiong and gently supported him. Chu Feng and Tong Yongshi also took turns helping Researcher Xiong relieve his burden. Their actions revealed a deep friendship.

Senior Wei, the Night Watchman, walked in front, observing his surroundings vigilantly, constantly reminding everyone to be aware of the traps beneath their feet and above their heads. The passage twisted and turned, seemingly endless. They walked for a long time, but still could not see any trace of the altar.

"How far... are we?" Researcher Xiong asked breathlessly, with a hint of anxiety in his voice.

"We're almost there, it should be just ahead." Senior Wei Shouren spoke firmly, but a hint of unease flickered in his eyes. This passage was more complex and dangerous than he had imagined, and he had a vague sense of foreboding.

Suddenly, a faint light appeared ahead, and everyone's spirits lifted, and they quickened their pace. As the light grew, they finally saw the end of the passage, which seemed to be a huge space.

However, just as they were about to exit the passage, a series of low roars emanated from the depths of space, like the whispers of a demon from hell, a chilling sound. Senior Wei, the Night Watchman, abruptly stopped, his expression grave, and raised his hand, signaling everyone to halt. He slowly drew his sword, pointing the tip forward, and spoke slowly, "...Be careful."
