Wei Jing's voice trembled as he pointed at the spiral symbol in the center of the pattern, his face pale.

"This is... a spell of confinement!"

Before he finished speaking, the symbol suddenly burst out with a dazzling light, and a powerful restraining force instantly enveloped Wei Jing.

He groaned, his body stiff and unable to move.

"Wei Jing!" Cen Ran exclaimed, energy surging in his hands, trying to break the confinement, but found that the power was like a drop in the ocean, and had no effect.

Lingfeng waved the feather fan, and a soft light enveloped Wei Jing, and his brows were furrowed.

"This restraining force isn't ordinary energy, but rather the power of some law. Breaking it by force will only worsen his injuries." He turned to the runes on the stone door, his tone solemn, "It seems these runes aren't simply records, but a test."

Lin Yu covered the aching wound, his face pale but his eyes firm.

"So what if it's a test? We must pass it!"

Lingfeng nodded and began to carefully interpret the images and words composed of the runes.

With his profound knowledge and keen insight, he guides Cen Ran and Lin Yu to solve the mystery step by step.

The runes on the stone gate are like a huge puzzle. Each symbol represents a different meaning, and when combined together, they contain profound secrets.

Lingfeng interpreted the information very quickly, but he was cautious with every step, for fear of triggering hidden traps.

He knew very well that if they were not careful, they would be doomed.

"This rune represents 'life'..." Lingfeng said, pointing to a symbol that looked like a sprout.

"And this one represents 'death'..." His finger moved to another symbol that resembled a skull.

"Life and death are interdependent, a cycle..." Cen Ran murmured softly, his eyes moving back and forth between the two symbols, as if he had understood something.

Lin Yu stared at a complex pattern with a frown on his face.

"I seem to have seen this pattern somewhere..." He tried hard to recall, but couldn't remember it.

Suddenly, he pointed to an inconspicuous symbol in the center of the pattern and exclaimed, "I know! This symbol..."

Before he finished speaking, the symbol suddenly flashed, and countless sharp stone spikes suddenly shot out from the surrounding walls!

"Be careful!" Ling Feng shouted and pushed Cen Ran and Lin Yu away.

Wei Jing was trapped in the spot, unable to move, and watched helplessly as the spikes flew towards him...

"Do not--"

Sharp stone spikes poured down like a rainstorm, making a teeth-grinding sound of breaking through the air.

Wei Jing was trapped in place and closed his eyes in despair.

At the critical moment, Gu Ling's figure flashed over, and with a wave of the staff in his hand, a golden barrier appeared out of thin air, blocking the oncoming stone spikes.

"Thank you, Senior Gu Ling!" Cen Ran shouted gratefully, and at the same time, energy surged in his hands, trying again to break the restraints on Wei Jing.

This time, with the help of Gu Ling, the restraining force finally showed some signs of loosening.

The stone spike attacks came one after another, and everyone was exhausted.

Cen Ran's forehead was scratched and blood flowed into his eyes, making his vision blurred.

But she didn't dare to stop, because the breath of the Lord God was getting closer and closer, and the oppressive feeling was suffocating.

"We can't go on like this!" Lin Yu gasped, his face pale, "We must find a way to break it as soon as possible!"

Cen Ran endured the pain, wiped the blood off his face, and his eyes fell on the runes on the stone door again.

In their blurred vision, the runes seemed to be dancing, as if mocking their incompetence.

Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Cen Ran’s mind, and she discovered it!

These runes are not random, but arranged according to a certain pattern!

"I know!" she shouted excitedly, "These runes are arranged according to the order of the five elements!"

Cen Ran began to instruct everyone to interpret the runes in the correct order: gold generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, fire generates earth, earth generates gold...

Each time a rune is deciphered, the stone spike's attack will be weakened by one point.

"It works!" Lin Yu exclaimed in surprise, "Cen Ran, you are so smart!"

As the last rune was deciphered, the stone thorn attack finally stopped.

The restraints on Wei Jing were also released, and he sat down on the ground powerlessly, gasping for breath.

"Success..." Lingfeng breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Cen Ran's vision was still blurry, but she could feel that the danger was not completely over.

She looked deep into the stone gate, where there seemed to be a deeper secret hidden...

"Wait," Cen Ran's weak voice sounded, "It seems... something is moving..."

Deep within the stone gate, a low humming sound was heard, and the ground shook slightly.

Cen Ran's premonition came true, something was awakening from the darkness.

However, this is just the beginning.

As the interpretation deepens, more complex traps emerge.

This time, several phantom monsters emerged from the darkness behind the stone gate. They had hideous faces, let out blood-curdling roars, and rushed directly towards the crowd.

Although Lin Yu and Wei Jing were injured, they still gritted their teeth, waved their weapons, and fought with all their might.

Wei Jing's injuries made his movements a little slow, but the determination in his eyes remained unchanged.

Lin Yu relied on his flexible body to shuttle between the monsters' attacks, looking for their weaknesses.

The spiritual feather fan waved gently, and wind blades hit the monster accurately, buying Cen Ran more time to interpret it.

His movements were graceful and relaxed, as if he was performing a gorgeous dance.

Under the dual pressure of fighting and interpreting, Cen Ran's brain was working rapidly.

She endured the pain of her wounds and the mental exhaustion, her eyes fixed on the runes on the stone door.

Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and she found a clue to a key piece of information - a tiny symbol hidden in a complex pattern.

She concentrated on deciphering the clue, and as she deciphered, the originally ferocious phantom monsters actually began to gradually become transparent, and eventually disappeared completely.

This shows that she has found the right direction.

Although the phantom monster disappeared, the message has not been fully deciphered.

The runes on the stone gate still glow with mysterious light, as if telling ancient secrets.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the air was filled with tension.

The Lord God may appear at any time. Can they successfully decipher all the information and find a way to defeat the Lord God?

Cen Ran took a deep breath, put all distracting thoughts behind him, and focused his attention on the runes again.

Her fingers moved slowly along the lines of the runes, and she whispered ancient spells.

As the spell was chanted, the runes on the stone gate began to emit a brighter light, and a powerful energy wave emanated from it.

"Wait..." Ling Feng suddenly said, his face becoming extremely solemn, his eyes fixed on the depths of the stone gate, "What is that..."

Cen Ran and Lin Yu also followed his gaze and saw a huge shadow slowly emerging from the depths of the stone gate...
