Hungover, I crossed over to the psychic realm

Chapter 117: Chapter 117 The Secret of the Altar



After climbing onto the altar, Lin Yu and Li Qiang were surprised to find that the giant pythons seemed to be full of awe and fear towards this mysterious altar. They just kept lingering around, emitting bursts of angry and reluctant roars. The sound echoed above the swamp, carrying a primitive animal nature and the mania after being provoked. Even so, the giant pythons never dared to take a step closer to the altar. Their huge bodies wriggled through the mud, churning up large patches of turbid muddy water, and the splashing water sparkled with an eerie luster in the dim light.

Lin Yu and Li Qiang stood back to back, vigilantly observing every move of the giant pythons. They held their weapons tightly in their hands, ready to deal with any possible attack at any time. Their breaths gradually calmed down, but their hearts still beat violently. They had just escaped from the encirclement of the giant pythons, and the tension and fear had not completely dissipated yet. The sweat mixed with the muddy water slid down their cheeks and dripped onto the rough surface of the altar, instantly being absorbed without leaving a trace.

After confirming that the giant pythons would not launch an attack for the time being, they began to concentrate on carefully studying those complex and mysterious runes and patterns on the altar, trying to find out the hidden secrets. These runes and patterns were engraved on the huge black boulders. After years of baptism, some of them had become blurred, but one could still feel the ancient and mysterious power contained in them. The lines of the runes were twisted and winding, as if they were the marks left by some living object crawling on the stone. The patterns covered various strange creatures, mysterious scenes, and some abstract symbols intertwined with each other, forming a mysterious picture, as if telling a past event that had been sealed by history.

Lin Yu's gaze slowly moved around the altar. His eyes were full of concentration and the desire to explore. He stretched out his hand and gently touched those runes. The cold touch of the stone and the rough texture of the runes were transmitted to his fingertips. He tried to capture some clues about the secrets of the altar from these subtle feelings. Suddenly, his fingers stopped on a rune. The shape of this rune was somewhat similar to those ancient runes he had activated in the swamp before. His heart skipped a beat, and a strong premonition welled up in his heart.

Lin Yu found that there was a subtle and profound connection between the runes on the altar and those ancient runes he had activated in the swamp before. He closed his eyes and tried hard to recall the scene when he activated the runes in the swamp. The flickering light of those runes and the powerful force released by them emerged in his mind. He began to look for more related runes on the altar. As he searched, the connection between these runes gradually became clear, as if a jigsaw puzzle was gradually being completed.

Li Qiang was also observing carefully beside him. Although he didn't quite understand Lin Yu's discovery, he believed in Lin Yu's intuition. Looking at Lin Yu's focused expression, a feeling of admiration welled up in his heart. In this dangerous swamp, Lin Yu's calmness and keenness had always allowed them to turn danger into safety time and time again.

Lin Yu's heart began to beat faster. He knew that he was getting closer and closer to unraveling the secret of the altar. He took a deep breath to calm down his excited mood, and then slowly mobilized the spiritual power in his body. The spiritual power flowed slowly through his meridians and converged in the palm of his hand. He slowly brought his palm close to the groove in the center of the altar. After hesitating for a moment, he injected the spiritual power into it.

In an instant, the groove was filled with a great deal of light, and a dazzling column of light shot up into the sky, like a bolt of lightning cutting through the darkness, instantly illuminating the thick fog around. The intense light made Lin Yu and Li Qiang instinctively close their eyes and shield their faces from the strong light with their arms. The power of this column of light was extremely powerful, as if it connected the sky and the earth. The surrounding air was violently agitated by it, making a "buzzing" sound.

With the appearance of this powerful column of light, the space around the altar was distorted and deformed, as if a mysterious door leading to an unknown world had been opened. The distortion of the space made the surrounding scenery blurred, as if everything had been drawn into a huge whirlpool. The giant pythons were so frightened by this sudden change that they all retreated. Their roars were full of fear and panic.

Lin Yu and Li Qiang carefully opened their eyes and looked at the strange scene in front of them, their hearts filled with shock and curiosity. They found that they seemed to be in a world where illusion and reality were intertwined, and everything around them became dreamlike. In that distorted space, they saw some strange scenes: Ancient castles loomed in the clouds and mist, and the walls of the castles were engraved with runes similar to those on the altar; Mysterious creatures shuttled through the light, their bodies emitting a soft light, and their eyes revealing wisdom and mystery; There were also some figures dressed in long robes holding some mysterious rituals. They were muttering words, and the magic instruments in their hands were shining with a strange light.

These scenes flashed by like phantoms, making them difficult to grasp. Lin Yu and Li Qiang were deeply attracted by the scene in front of them, and they involuntarily walked forward, wanting to explore this mysterious world more deeply. However, just as they took a step forward, a powerful force came from the distorted space and pushed them back.

Lin Yu and Li Qiang steadied their figures. They realized that this mysterious world was not so easy to enter. They began to carefully observe the surrounding space, trying to find a way to enter this world. They found that at the distorted parts of the space, there were some runes flickering, and these runes echoed with the runes on the altar.

Lin Yu mobilized the spiritual power in his body again. He injected the spiritual power into those flickering runes. As the spiritual power was injected, the light of the runes became brighter, and the distortion of the space gradually stabilized. An illusory portal slowly emerged in front of them. The portal emitted a soft light, as if calling to them.

Lin Yu and Li Qiang exchanged a glance, and their eyes were full of determination and courage. They knew that going through this portal, what awaited them might be endless dangers, but it might also be the key to unlocking the secrets of the swamp. They took a deep breath and then slowly walked into that illusory portal.

The moment they stepped into the portal, the surrounding scenery changed instantly. They came to a huge cave. The walls of the cave were inlaid with various strange gemstones, emitting a soft light that illuminated the entire cave. In the center of the cave, there was a huge stone platform, and on the stone platform was placed a book emitting a mysterious light.

Lin Yu and Li Qiang carefully approached the stone platform. Their eyes were fixed on that book, and their hearts were filled with anticipation and curiosity. When they reached the stone platform, they found that the cover of the book was engraved with the same runes as those on the altar. Lin Yu stretched out his hand and gently touched those runes. A powerful force was transmitted from his fingertips, and some strange pictures suddenly emerged in his mind.

He saw an ancient race. They had powerful strength and wisdom and established a brilliant civilization on this land. However, a sudden disaster struck, plunging this race into a desperate situation. In order to save their own race, they built this mysterious altar, trying to use some mysterious power to fight against the disaster.

As these pictures emerged, Lin Yu had a deeper understanding of the secret of the altar. He realized that this altar was not just a simple building. It also carried the hopes and memories of an ancient race. And that book was likely to contain the key information to unlock the secrets of the altar.

Lin Yu slowly opened the book. The words on the pages of the book were shining, as if telling an ancient story. He and Li Qiang began to carefully read the content of the book. As they delved deeper into the reading, they had a more comprehensive understanding of the history and secrets of this swamp. It turned out that this swamp had once been a prosperous world, but the invasion of a dark force had turned it into a dangerous and isolated place. And this altar was the key to fighting against the dark force.

When they read about how to activate the ultimate power of the altar, there was a sudden violent vibration in the cave. They looked up and found that cracks began to appear on the top of the cave, and stones kept falling. At the same time, they heard the roars of the giant pythons, and the sound was getting closer and closer, as if they had also been attracted here by the changes.

Lin Yu and Li Qiang realized that they had to find a way to activate the ultimate power of the altar 

as soon as possible. Otherwise, not only would they be in danger themselves, but the secrets of this swamp would also be buried forever. They accelerated their reading speed and finally found the key information on the last page of the book.

According to the records in the book, they needed to integrate their own spiritual power with the power of the altar in order to activate the ultimate power of the altar. Lin Yu and Li Qiang did not hesitate to start mobilizing the spiritual power in their bodies. They injected the spiritual power into the stone platform of the altar. As the spiritual power was injected, the stone platform began to emit light, and the light gradually spread throughout the cave.

The vibration in the cave became more and more intense, and the stones were falling faster and faster. The roars of the giant pythons were already right beside them, and they might rush into the cave at any moment. Lin Yu and Li Qiang concentrated their minds and fully injected the spiritual power into the altar. Suddenly, a dazzling light burst out from the altar, and the entire cave was enveloped in this light.

In the light, Lin Yu and Li Qiang felt a powerful force surging in their bodies. Their bodies seemed to be transformed by this force and became stronger. At this time, at the entrance of the cave, the giant pythons had rushed in. They were intimidated by the light burst out from the altar, but driven by their instincts, they still pounced towards Lin Yu and Li Qiang.

Lin Yu and Li Qiang turned around and faced the rushing giant pythons. Their eyes were full of determination and confidence. They knew that this battle was about to reach its final showdown, and they were ready. With the power bestowed by the altar, they were confident that they could defeat these giant pythons, unlock the secrets of the swamp, and restore peace to this land.
