"Qi Ye, be careful!" Cheng Long warned him and could only watch him go forward alone.

In the live broadcast room, everyone held their breath and stared at the screen, afraid of missing any details.

"What the hell! There are so many mechanisms hidden behind this statue? Is this going to kill us?"

"That's right! If Lin Qiye hadn't dodged quickly just now, he would have been beaten into a meat pie by now!"

"This statue is like a fortress. I wonder if all the mechanisms are installed here."

"Oh my god, it's terrifying just looking at it. He is so brave to go up there and take this risk alone, isn't he?"

"By the way, if the 'Heart of the God' is so rare, then wouldn't it mean that we can do whatever we want once we get it?"

"That's not necessarily true. Didn't you hear what Lin Qiye said just now? If this kind of divine weapon falls into the hands of the bad guys, who knows how much trouble it will cause."

"That is, instead of being blinded by greed and having crooked ideas, it is better to respect history and stop while you are ahead. After all, cultural relics are priceless, and protecting them is the key."

"But isn't Lin Qiye determined to get it? Could it be that he wants to worship it?"

"If you want to offer something, you should offer it to the Buddha statue. Have you ever seen anyone offer a ball for fun?"

Naturally, the audience’s discussions did not reach Lin Qiye’s ears.

At this moment, he was walking on thin ice, moving towards the statue step by step.

The majestic and tall statue is right before your eyes, exuding a mysterious aura.

Lin Qiye stared at the ground intently, afraid of triggering any more mechanisms.

Every step is like dancing on the edge of a knife.

Sweat flowed down his forehead and soaked the collar of his clothes.

Lin Qiye moved cautiously on the statue, fearing that he might accidentally trigger some mechanism.

The mechanisms that just emerged from the ground and the statues have already made him realize the weirdness of this ancient tomb.

"There is definitely something wrong with this statue." Lin Qiye muttered to himself, scanning the surface of the statue, looking for anything suspicious.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on a bulge on the statue's chest.

The protrusion blends in with the surrounding texture and is almost imperceptible.

However, Lin Qiye's keen intuition told him that there must be a mystery hidden here.

He took a deep breath and reached out to press it.

With a click and the sound of a mechanism, the chest of the statue slowly opened, revealing a secret compartment.

"Sure enough!" Lin Qiye's eyes lit up.

He quickly reached in and fumbled in the secret compartment.

Suddenly, my fingertips touched a cold object.

He carefully took it out and looked at it carefully.

It was a bronze key inlaid with strange patterns and emitting a faint green light.

"Is this the key to unlock the mechanism?" Lin Qiye muttered to himself.

He looked around and his eyes fell on the stone wall behind the statue.

There is a distinct groove there, shaped exactly like the outline of the key!
"It seems that this is the right way."

Lin Qiye moved over there and inserted the bronze key into the groove.

With a click, the stone wall slowly moved away, revealing a hidden passage!
"Qi Ye, are you okay?" Cheng Long shouted from the opposite side, his face full of tension.

"I'm fine, I found a secret passage. You wait over there, I'll go in and take a look!" Lin Qiye shouted to everyone.

Wu Jing frowned worriedly: "Be careful, there are too many traps here, don't take risks!"

Lin Qiye nodded, holding up the flashlight, and cautiously stepped into the secret passage.

In the live broadcast room, the audience also held their breath and stared at the screen. "Oh my god, there is a hidden mechanism in this statue? It's really hard to guard against it!"

"Fortunately, Lin Qiye reacted quickly, otherwise he would have been in big trouble."

"I think this 'Heart of the Gods' is most likely a cover-up. The real treasure might be hidden in this secret passage!"

"That's right. There are so many mechanisms. They must be protecting something important."

The audience was discussing the matter one after another, full of anticipation for what would happen next.

The secret passage is deep and long, and the stone walls on both sides are extremely shiny, revealing a chilling chill in the dim light.

Lin Qiye held a flashlight and took every step carefully, fearing that he would trigger another trap.

Suddenly, a strange noise came from the front, as if something was swimming inside the stone wall.

Lin Qiye's heart trembled and he slowed down his pace.

At this moment, a crack suddenly appeared in the stone wall in front, and countless sharp iron arrows whizzed out from it, heading straight for Lin Qiye!
"Not good!" Lin Qiye's face changed and he suddenly dodged to the side.

At the critical moment, he narrowly avoided the fatal rain of arrows and broke out in a cold sweat.

"The mechanism in this ancient tomb is really insidious." Lin Qiye wiped the sweat from his forehead, gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.

After walking a little further, a pungent smell suddenly hit him. Lin Qiye quickly covered his mouth and nose and looked around vigilantly.

"This smell is like some kind of poisonous gas!" He thought to himself that something was wrong.

Sure enough, the ground in front suddenly collapsed, turning into a bottomless pit.

Bursts of yellow-green mist rose from the bottom of the pit, emitting a disgusting stench.

Lin Qiye’s mind raced as he looked up towards the top of the cave.

I saw several thick iron chains hanging above my head, which seemed to be connected to the rock wall on the opposite side.

"It seems that the only way to get through is from above." Lin Qiye gritted his teeth, jumped up, and climbed up using his hands and feet.

In the live broadcast room, the audience stared at the screen in shock and fear, worrying about Lin Qiye.

"Oh my god, this is simply a hell-level dungeon! One trap after another, isn't it too exciting?"

"If it were me, I would have pissed myself with fear! Lin Qiye is really too brave."

"As expected of a master, his skills and reactions are simply amazing!"

"I just don't know where this secret passage leads to. Is it a dead end?"

While the audience was discussing the matter, Lin Qiye had successfully passed the poison gas zone and continued to move forward.

It seemed that the secret passage was almost coming to an end, and there was a faint light ahead.

"Is it finally the end?" Lin Qiye narrowed his eyes, held his breath and continued to move forward.

But it took him nearly half an hour to complete the last few dozen meters.

He had no way of telling how many sinister mechanisms were inside, so he could only move forward tentatively step by step.

Just when everyone thought they were about to see the end of the secret passage.

Lin Qiye's expression suddenly changed. He paused and looked carefully at every inch of the ground and the surrounding rocks.

"Is the trap here not over yet? Let me tell you. Uh-huh."

Cheng Long was about to say something when Wu Jing held him back.

"Shut up! Speak loudly and don't disrupt his concentration!" Wu Jing scolded in a low voice.

When Lin Qiye's eyes swept across a rock with an inscription engraved on it, his expression suddenly changed.

Before he finished speaking, the ground beneath Lin Qiye suddenly collapsed! (End of this chapter)
