The male protagonist of the book is poisonous

We carried the fragment of the newly found star chart and continued our search through the hall, searching for other fragments. I clutched the fragment tightly in my hand. Though the stars on it were a little incomplete, I felt it was a key that would unlock the door to the other fragments. I examined it carefully and said to my companions, "The stars on this fragment are a little blurry, but I have a feeling it's somehow connected to the star pattern on the left side of the hall."

Luo Chen heard my words, his eyes filled with trust and tenderness as he walked towards the area on the left. His steps were steady and resolute, each step carrying a sense of determination. He stopped in that area and began to observe the surrounding instruments and stone tablets with full concentration. After a while, he turned to look at me with a look of approval and said, "Miaomiao, you have a point. The astrological pattern here seems to be filling in the missing part of this fragment. You are always so perceptive. This is a very important discovery for us."

Leng Shuang, having overheard our conversation, quickly followed. She stood there, eyes closed, and channeled her ice-type spiritual energy to survey the surroundings. After a moment, she opened her eyes and, frowning, said, "The fluctuations of spiritual energy here are somewhat strange, as if something is hidden. This hidden power is very subtle; I can only sense its presence, but it's difficult to pinpoint its source."

The woman in white stood nearby, intently examining the inscriptions on a stone tablet. Her fingers gently traced the ancient, mysterious words, as if in conversation with distant history. After a moment, she looked up and said, "This stone tablet speaks of a hidden power. If we can find and activate it, it may help us find the fragments of the astrological map more quickly. However, this power seems to be protected by an ancient restriction, making it difficult to access."

We followed the direction of the strange spiritual power fluctuations that Leng Shuang mentioned, and soon we arrived in front of a huge crystal pillar. The crystal pillar was so thick that several people could hug it, and it emitted a faint blue light. The mysterious fluctuations were constantly coming from the crystal pillar. I was attracted by the beauty and mystery of this crystal pillar, and couldn't help but reach out to touch it curiously, wanting to feel what was hidden under the fluctuations. Seeing this, Luo Chen hurriedly reached out and grabbed my wrist, stopping me and saying, "Miaomiao, don't touch it easily. The power emitted by this crystal pillar is very mysterious, and we don't know its details yet. Touching it rashly may be dangerous, and I can't let you get hurt."

Leng Shuang asked helplessly, "How can we explore the secret of this crystal pillar? We can't just sit there and watch. We must find a way to solve this mystery before we can continue our journey to find the star map."

The woman in white slowly circled the crystal pillar, her eyes a pensive glint. She extended her hand and gently waved it in the air around it, as if sensing the flow of spiritual energy. After a moment, she said, "I sense a connection between this crystal pillar and the hidden power we just saw on the stele. Perhaps we need to channel spiritual energy into the crystal pillar according to a specific astrological sequence. However, this sequence is certainly not easy to find. We need to carefully recall all the astrological patterns we've seen so far."

So, we began to diligently recall the astrological patterns we had seen before, trying to identify a possible order within those complex and numerous patterns. Luo Chen closed his eyes, his expression becoming intensely focused, as if he were lost in his own inner world. In his mind, the positions and relationships of the various constellations resembled a gigantic puzzle, and he meticulously sorted out every detail. After a moment, he slowly said, "I remember a set of astrological patterns on the stone gate, and part of that pattern might be related to this crystal pillar. The lines of that pattern were very unique, and I immediately thought it might hold some important information."

Leng Shuang was also trying to recall, her brow furrowed slightly, a look of confusion in her eyes. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she said, "I think I've seen similar patterns in the constellations above the hall. The frequency and color of those stars' flashes seem to follow a certain pattern. Now that I think about it, it's probably related to the constellation sequence we're looking for."

I was studying the fragment of the star chart at a different angle, trying to find more clues. Suddenly, as if I had discovered something, I excitedly said, "Look, if you combine the constellations on this fragment with the ones we've been discussing, isn't that the sequence we're looking for? If we combine the constellations on the stone gate, the ceiling of the hall, and this fragment according to a certain logic, we might be able to form a complete astrological sequence."

The woman in white took the fragments, examined them carefully, and nodded. "It's very possible. This idea makes sense. Let's try it on the crystal column in this order. Although this is just our speculation, there's no better way at the moment."

Luo Chen took the lead, slowly channeling his spiritual energy into the crystal pillar according to the astrological sequence we'd deduced. He gently placed his hands on the pillar, and spiritual energy flowed from his palms like a trickle pouring into the sea. As the energy poured in, astrological patterns began to emerge on the crystal pillar. As if awakened from within, these patterns gradually became clearer and their radiance grew stronger. Leng Shuang, observing this, unhesitatingly channeled her own ice-based spiritual energy. Her energy, imbued with a chilling aura, blended with Luo Chen's, radiating a dazzling blue light, like a giant blue gem. The woman in white and I followed suit, channeling our own spiritual energy. When our energy was fully infused, the crystal pillar vibrated violently. The vibrations echoed through the hall, like the tolling of an ancient bell.

As the crystal pillar vibrated, a powerful hidden force surged forth from it. Like a blue wave, this force spread outward with overwhelming force. We sensed the potent spiritual energy within this force, a living spiritual energy that formed a spiritual shield around us. This shield emanated a gentle glow, enveloping us like a warm and safe harbor. Simultaneously, this force began repairing some of the damaged instruments in the hall. Under its influence, the worn, dusty instruments gradually regained their vitality, parts automatically returning to their original positions and rust slowly disappearing.

Leng Shuang looked at all this in amazement, her eyes wide open, and said, "This power is so strong, it seems to be helping us. What kind of power is this? It's so magical."

The woman in white said with awe in her eyes, "This must be the hidden power mentioned on the stone tablet. It may have been left by the person who previously guarded this place, with the purpose of helping those destined to find the astrological map. It seems that we are the chosen ones to trigger this power. We must cherish this opportunity and not let down the kindness of our predecessors."

Luo Chen watched the changes around him, his eyes filled with anticipation. He said, "We must make good use of this power. Perhaps it can directly lead us to find other fragments of the star map. This power is like a bright light, illuminating the way forward on our dark journey to find the star map."

At that moment, that power coalesced into a projection of a star map in a corner of the hall. The projection revealed the likely location of the next fragment of the star map: a hidden chamber. The entrance to the chamber appeared hazy, as if shrouded in mist. However, the path to the chamber was blocked by a complex spiritual barrier. The barrier radiated a multicolored light, like a brilliant yet dangerous rainbow.

We walked up to the spiritual barrier and carefully observed its structure. Luo Chen's eyes became very serious. He said, "The spiritual power fluctuations of this barrier are very complex. It seems to be a mixture of multiple spiritual powers. These spiritual powers are intertwined and entangled with each other, forming a very stable structure. Breaking through it will definitely not be an easy task."

Leng Shuang tried to use her ice power to probe the barrier's weaknesses, slowly bringing it closer. However, as soon as her power approached, the barrier, as if sensing a threat, instantly strengthened its defenses. Her power bounced back, and she couldn't help but take a step back, frowning and saying, "This barrier has a certain repulsive reaction to ice power. As soon as my power approaches, it strengthens its defenses. It seems we can't break through it using conventional methods."

The woman in white was also analyzing carefully: "I feel that this barrier is set up according to some kind of formation. To break it, we need to find the flaws in the formation. This formation looks very ancient and must follow some ancient rules. We need more clues to find its flaws."

I carefully searched the surroundings for any clues that might be related to the formation. I examined every corner, even a small stone or a speck of dust. Suddenly, I spotted some tiny symbols on an unassuming stone. They were so tiny that they could easily be missed without careful observation. Excitedly, I called everyone over: "Look, could the symbols on this stone be related to the formation? They look ancient and full of mystery."

Luo Chen heard me and hurried over. He squatted down and carefully studied the symbols. His eyes revealed a focus and excitement. After a moment, he looked up and said, "These symbols are the markings of an ancient formation. Based on them, I think I know where the flaw in this barrier is. This formation is a variation of the ancient Five Elements formation. As long as we input spiritual energy in a specific way, it may be possible to break this barrier."

Luo Chen began to guide us in inputting spiritual energy in a specific way, explaining each step in detail: "First, I will input wood spiritual energy, because wood can produce fire. Leng Shuang, you will then input fire spiritual energy. Then, the woman in white, you will input earth spiritual energy. Miaomiao, you will input water spiritual energy last. We must grasp the rhythm and intensity of the spiritual energy input, so that we can successfully break the barrier."

We carefully fed our spiritual energy, following Luo Chen's instructions. Luo Chen began by slowly infusing his wood energy, his energy carrying a vibrant aura. Leng Shuang followed with fire energy, her energy blazing like a flame. The woman in white then infused earth energy, a steady and profound force. Finally, I infused water energy, my energy like a trickle. As our energy entered in sequence, the barrier began to flicker, its light flickering. With a flash of light, the barrier was finally broken.

We cautiously entered the secret chamber, which was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere. It seemed to emanate from a distant past, carrying a sense of time. The walls were engraved with complete astrological diagrams, vividly depicted, as if telling an ancient story. In the center of the chamber, a stone platform rested on which lay the fragment of the astrological diagram we were searching for. In the dim light of the chamber, the fragment glowed faintly, like a pearl waiting to be discovered.

Leng Shuang said excitedly, "Finally found it!" Her voice was full of joy and excitement.

I also excitedly walked towards the stone platform, wanting to pick up the fragment. My heart began to beat faster because I knew how important this fragment was to us.

Just as I was about to retrieve the fragment, a beam of light rose from the stone platform, revealing a new puzzle. This puzzle consisted of astrological symbols that flickered in the air, seemingly challenging us. We had to arrange these symbols in the correct order to retrieve the fragment.

Seeing this, Luo Chen walked over to me, gently held my hand, and said, "Miaomiao, it seems there is one last hurdle. Let's work together to solve this puzzle. As long as we work together, we will definitely be able to solve this puzzle and get the fragment."

We gathered around the stone platform and began to study this final puzzle. Everyone's eyes were filled with determination. We knew that this was the last hurdle in our journey to find the star map, and we had to give it our all.
