"Time is running out, we must find the secret place that this thing can open as soon as possible."

Lin Hao lowered his head and glanced at the diamond-shaped stone in his hand, obviously unwilling to give up.

After saying this, he moved and quickly flew towards the northeast of the ancient ruins.

In this way, Lin Hao shuttled through the halls and aisles without stopping according to the fluctuations of the flashing runes on the diamond-shaped stone.

Even though in the nearby stone hall, there were occasional cheers of surprise for finding treasures, Lin Hao did not pay any attention to it.

About half an hour later.

Lin Hao finally arrived at his destination with the guidance of the rhombus stone.

This should be the core area of ​​ancient ruins.

In sight, an extremely large ancient stone palace stood like the head of the palace complex, standing in the center of many palaces.

This stone palace is extremely huge. From a distance, it looks like a mountain peak, filled with a majestic aura that makes people feel shocked!

At this time, many figures had already gathered outside the hall.

These people, in addition to the contestants with rhombus-shaped stone bodies, the other guys had obviously discovered Ni Duan and were waiting here specially.

At a glance, there were densely packed figures, about a hundred or so.

If everyone rushes in together, fierce competition will be inevitable!

However, the metal door of the stone palace was closed tightly, but there were many marks of sword slashes on it.

Come to think of it, just now, I have been tortured by these people, but I am still strong.

"Since everyone intends to gather here, I will make it clear that people will not talk secretly."

At this time, a young man in white walked to the front door of the stone palace.

He glanced sharply at everyone present and said clearly: "According to my guess, to open this door, you must collect all the keys, that is, this kind of key."

After saying this, he flipped his palm lightly and took out a diamond-shaped stone body from the storage ring.

Its shape is almost identical to Lin Hao's, except for the mysterious runes engraved on it, which are slightly different.

Seeing this, the six contestants in the crowd suddenly stared at the rhombus-shaped stone in the hands of the young man in white, with rather surprised expressions on their faces.

There is no doubt that they also have this kind of stuff on them.

Since I only came here based on the strength of the runes flashing before, I never thought that this useless stone would be the key to unlocking the mechanism!

At this moment, after the young man in white said this, they suddenly understood, and their eyes flashed with a burning color.

However, in order to ensure that the secret key would not be snatched away by others, the six people in the crowd chose to remain silent for the time being.

"Everyone must know that there is a huge light curtain in the space of the ancient battlefield, and every once in a while, the area will shrink on its own."

Seeing that the guys with the secret key were indifferent, the young man in white frowned slightly.

His tone became slightly lower and he continued: "According to the current moving speed of the light curtain, we will reach this area in another half an hour."

"If you don't fight for time, even if there is a treasure inside, I'm afraid no one will be able to get it by then."

"So, why not take this opportunity and give it a try?!"

The young man in white had bright eyes and said loudly: "I know that you all have concerns. In order to ensure that those who have the secret key have the priority to enter the palace to hunt for treasures, please step back a hundred feet."

Upon hearing this, the crowd suddenly became commotion.

Obviously, he is quite dissatisfied with this so-called priority given to the young man in white.

However, they do not have the secret key and do not know how to refute this.

"Okay, instead of continuing to delay, it's better to give in."

At this time, a bold voice sounded from the crowd.

Immediately afterwards, I saw a burly man retreating a hundred feet away.

That man was wearing the uniform of Tianyan Academy, with broad shoulders and carrying a long bow.

Judging from his appearance, it turned out to be Raymond!

"The third child!"

Not far away, Lin Hao, who was lurking next to the wall, suddenly looked slightly startled.

Immediately, he moved, walked past with dragon steps, and soon appeared next to Raymond.

"Boss! It's you!"

Raymond's face turned pale, and when he saw that the person who suddenly appeared next to him was Lin Hao, he immediately shouted in ecstasy.

"Where are the second and fourth children?"

Lin Hao smiled lightly, nodded, and asked.

"I don't know either. As soon as we entered the ancient battlefield two days ago, everyone dispersed,"

Raymond shook his head and said calmly: "I haven't met you until now, so I don't know what their current situation is."

Lin Hao said calmly: "It's okay. With the abilities of those two guys, they might have harmed many contestants."

Hearing this, Raymond was stunned for a moment, then grinned and said: "The boss is right."

At this time, when they saw someone retreating a hundred feet away, the contestants who did not have the secret key began to take action after a slight hesitation.

After a while.

In front of the stone palace gate, there were only seven people left in the originally dense crowd.

Of these seven people, five are men and two are women.

All are contestants with secret keys.

However, the slightly frowned brows of the young man in white never relaxed.

Because, according to his estimation, the structure of the combined secret key requires at least eight diamond-shaped stone bodies.

At this moment, there are only seven people, which means there is still one missing.

Is it possible that there is one of them here who owns two diamond-shaped stone bodies?

In this regard, the young man in white did not ask explicitly, but said: "Now, please take out your respective secret keys."

As long as everyone takes it out together, it will be clear at a glance.

Hearing this, the six contestants did not hesitate. They reached out to touch the storage ring, and a diamond-shaped stone flashed in their hands.

Then, with an experimental mentality, the young man in white pieced together the diamond-shaped stone bodies of six other people.

However, the outcome was exactly as he had guessed. There was still one piece missing to form the complete secret key.

Seeing this, the other six people were also slightly surprised.

After working on it for a long time, the last piece was still missing!

So what to do next?

Everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere seemed to become a little awkward all of a sudden.

"The shrinking light curtain will take at least another hour to arrive here. Let's continue to wait."

The young man in white coughed, looked at the six people around him, and suggested with a smile.

"All right."

The six people looked at each other and nodded with regret.

Now in this situation, the only option is to wait where you are.

Otherwise, if the person who owned the last rhombus stone body arrived here just in time after leaving, wouldn't he have missed the opportunity?

"What a pity, there is still one piece missing."

In the crowd behind, Raymond shook his head and sighed secretly, "I don't know who got it."

Next to him, Lin Hao raised the corner of his mouth and said with a faint smile: "That guy is me."

"you?"

Hearing this, Raymond was stunned for a moment.

Immediately he reacted quickly, staring at Lin Hao in surprise, and said excitedly: "Boss, the last secret key is on you?!"

Hearing this, the eyes of many contestants present lit up.
Chapter completed!
