I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

"Everyone, be careful. The traps and puzzles here may be triggered at any time."

Zhao Qi nodded and walked forward cautiously. As he walked, he observed the surrounding walls and floors, fearing that he might accidentally trigger a trap.

However, just as he was concentrating on moving forward, his feet suddenly became empty and his whole body fell suddenly.

He was startled, and subconsciously used his magic power to stabilize his body, but the falling force was so powerful that he could not resist it at all.

"Ah——" Zhao Qi couldn't help but exclaimed.

At this moment, a pair of strong arms suddenly wrapped around his waist and pulled him firmly. He looked up and saw that it was Lan Che who came to the rescue.

"Brother Zhao Qi, are you okay?" Lan Che asked with concern.

Zhao Qi shook his head, "I'm fine, thank you Brother Lan Che for saving me." As he said that, he looked at the dark trap at his feet with lingering fear.

Lan Che smiled slightly, "Brother Zhao Qi, you're welcome. The traps and puzzles in this maze are indeed strange and unpredictable, so we still have to be more careful."

Zhao Qi nodded, took a deep breath, and calmed down. He knew that the challenge in this maze had just begun, and he had to remain calm and alert in order to successfully pass it.

He understood that the meaning of this puzzle was that they needed to touch the nine gems in a certain order to open the stone door, but the question was, what was this order?

"Great! We succeeded!" Zhao Qi patted Lan Che's shoulder excitedly.

Lan Che also smiled, "Brother Zhao Qi is indeed extremely smart. The challenges we have to face next will probably be more difficult, but we must work together to overcome the difficulties together."

"These symbols are really weird!" Lan Che exclaimed, "They seem to be absorbing our mana!"

It was a huge stone door with nine gems of different colors inlaid on it.

Strange symbols and patterns are carved on the walls, which seem to tell some ancient legend.

There is a stone tablet next to the stone door, with a line of text engraved on it: "Use the heart as a guide and color as the key to open the door to the next level."

Every time he touched a gem, he could feel a different wave of energy. He kept these fluctuations in mind, then opened his eyes and started trying different combinations.

He turned to look at Lan Che, "Brother Lan Che, do you have a clue about this puzzle?"

Zhao Qi nodded and walked forward confidently. He knew that there were countless traps and puzzles waiting for them to solve in this maze.

The two continued forward and soon encountered the first puzzle.

This labyrinth exudes an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, as if telling the countless years and secrets it has witnessed.

Zhao Qi's heart moved when he heard this. He closed his eyes and stretched out his hand to touch the gems one by one.

After several attempts, he finally found the correct sequence. When he touched the last gem in this order, the stone door opened with a bang.

Zhao Qi followed closely behind, and the two walked side by side. The passages in the maze are so intricate that they seem to never end.

Lan Che shook his head, "This is the first time I've seen this puzzle. But I think since it says 'guided by the heart', it may mean that we need to feel the fluctuations of these gems with our hearts."

Zhao Qi frowned as he looked at this line of text.

Hearing this, Lan Che also observed the symbols carefully. He stretched out his hand to touch the symbols, but suddenly felt a weak force coming from his fingertips.

Lan Che took a deep breath and took the lead to move forward.

"There seems to be something wrong here." Zhao Qi suddenly stopped and looked around with a frown, "The symbols on these walls seem to be guiding something."

Zhao Qi and Lan Che stood in the maze, looking at each other and smiling, each seeing the determination in the other's eyes.

Zhao Qi's heart moved and he stretched out his hand to touch those symbols. Sure enough, he also felt the weak power. There was a glint in his eyes, and he already had a calculation in his mind.

"These symbols should be setting up obstacles for us." Zhao Qi said in a deep voice, "However, as long as we deal with them carefully, we should be able to find a way to pass."

The two continued to move forward and soon encountered their first problem.

A huge stone door blocked their way. There was a blue gem inlaid on the stone door, which shone with a strange light.

"This gem should be the key to opening the stone door." Zhao Qi observed for a while and said with certainty.

Lan Che nodded and stepped forward to touch the gem. However, just when he was about to touch the gem, a blue light suddenly shot out from the gem and hit him directly.

"Be careful!" Zhao Qi, with quick eyes and quick hands, pulled Lan Che away. The blue light hit the void and dissipated in the air.

"What a risk!" Lan Che patted his chest with lingering fear, "It seems that this gem is not that simple."

Zhao Qi frowned and fell into deep thought. He understood that this gem must have some kind of mechanism or trap, and he must deal with it carefully.

He stretched out his hand and used his magic power to detect the status of the gem. However, as soon as his mana came into contact with the gem, it was immediately bounced back.

"There's something weird about this gem." Zhao Qi retracted his hand and said in a deep voice, "It seems to be repelling our magic power."

Lan Che's heart moved when he heard this, "Repelling magic power? Doesn't that mean we can't use conventional methods to open this stone door?"

Zhao Qi nodded, "Yes. However, since it repels mana, let's try other methods."

As he spoke, he took out a slender wire from the storage bag and carefully stretched it towards the gem. As soon as the wire touched the gem, it was immediately sucked in, and then the stone door opened with a bang.

"Successful!" Lan Che cheered and patted Zhao Qi on the shoulder, "Brother Zhao Qi, you are really smart!"

Zhao Qi smiled slightly, "It's just a fluke. Let's move on."

The two continued moving forward after passing the stone gate, and soon encountered more problems and traps. However, no matter what difficulties they encountered, they were able to work together to face them and finally solved those problems and traps one by one.

During the expedition, the two also discovered many precious treasures and elixirs, which greatly improved their cultivation and strength.

Zhao Qi and Lan Che walked through the maze, and the surrounding walls were carved with strange patterns, which seemed to tell some ancient story.

The two carefully avoided the traps and looked for the entrance to the next level.

Suddenly, a strange wave came from the front, and Zhao Qi and Lan Che immediately stopped in alarm. They looked at each other and saw the solemn look in each other's eyes.

"Be careful, there is a situation ahead." Zhao Qi reminded in a low voice. Lan Che nodded, and the two of them held the magic weapons in their hands tightly and walked forward slowly. Turning a corner, they were surprised to find an immortal cultivator sitting on the ground in front of them healing his injuries.

The immortal cultivator was wearing green clothes, with long hair shawl, and a handsome face, but at this moment, his face was pale and he looked extremely weak.

Seeing Zhao Qi and Lan Che arriving, he struggled to stand up and stared at them warily.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" The immortal cultivator asked coldly.

Zhao Qi and Lan Che looked at each other and saw kindness in each other's eyes. Zhao Qi smiled slightly, took a step forward and said.

"We are immortal cultivators from other planets, and we are here to participate in this event. We got lost in the maze and came here by mistake. You are injured, do you need help?"

When the immortal cultivator heard this, the vigilance in his eyes diminished slightly. He looked at Zhao Qi and Lan Che carefully and found that the auras on their bodies were indeed similar to his own, and they were both immortal cultivators. And he saw no malice in their eyes.

"My name is Qing Feng, and I am an immortal cultivator from the Aoki Star Territory." The immortal cultivator introduced himself, "I encountered a trap in the maze and suffered some injuries."

"Brother Qingfeng, we are Zhao Qi and Lan Che from the Blue Star Territory."

Zhao Qi said with a smile, "Since we are all cultivators here to attend the grand event, we are friends. Let's go together and take care of each other."

Qing Feng hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. He knew that he was seriously injured and would be in danger if he acted alone.

Moreover, he felt a friendly atmosphere from Zhao Qi and Lan Che, which created an inexplicable tacit understanding between the three of them.

So, the three of them walked together and continued their adventure in the maze. They support each other, face challenges together, and help each other in times of crisis to overcome difficulties.

During the exploration, they also met other immortal cultivators. Some people travel alone, while others travel in groups.

But no matter who they meet, they remain vigilant and respectful, because in this mysterious maze, everyone may be a potential enemy.

However, when they met a team of five people cultivating immortals, the atmosphere became a little tense.

The five people were wearing uniform clothes and holding the same magic weapons. They looked extremely arrogant and domineering. When they saw Zhao Qi and the others, they immediately showed disdainful and mocking smiles.

"Hahaha! Look who this is? Three guys who don't know the heights of heaven and earth dare to break into this maze!" one of them laughed loudly.

Zhao Qi and the others frowned slightly when they heard this, but they did not get angry immediately. They know that in this maze, strength is the most important thing.

So they chose to be patient and give in, hoping to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

But the five people did not intend to let them go, and continued to provoke and insult them.

Finally, Qing Feng couldn't bear it any longer and took a step forward and said coldly: "Don't go too far! We don't offend each other, so why bother forcing each other?"

The five people were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then burst into even more arrogant laughter.

"Hahaha! Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of being with us? Let me tell you, the treasures in this maze are all ours! If you are sensible, get out of here, otherwise don't blame us for being rude!" One of them said fiercely. said.

Zhao Qi and Lan Che also saw each other's hostility and greed at this moment, but in the end they chose to give in and get out of the way. After all, I endured the calm for a while.

The passages in the maze are like intricate vines, and each one seems to lead to an endless abyss.

Zhao Qi, Lan Che and the newly acquainted immortal cultivator Qing Feng walked side by side and looked around cautiously.

"There seems to be a mechanism here." Zhao Qi stopped and pointed to a raised stone slab on the wall.

Lan Che and Qing Feng immediately gathered around and saw some ancient runes carved on the stone slab, emitting a faint light.

"These runes seem to be part of a certain formation." Qing Feng frowned slightly, trying to decipher the mystery.

Zhao Qi observed carefully for a while and had some thoughts in his mind. He stretched out his palm, pressed it gently on the stone slab, and then used his magic power to inject it into the stone slab.

With the injection of mana, the runes on the stone slab began to light up one by one, and the light flickered as if they were beating. Immediately afterwards, there was a slight sound of a mechanism, and the passage in front of the three people suddenly changed.

The three of them continued walking and soon encountered the second puzzle.

This is a huge stone door. The stone door is inlaid with nine gems of different colors, shining with strange light.

"These nine gems seem to represent nine different elemental powers." Qing Feng said in a deep voice, "We need to activate them in a specific order to open this stone door."

Zhao Qi nodded, "Yes. And this order is definitely not random. There must be some rules to follow."

As he spoke, he began to observe the nine gems carefully. Each gem exudes a different atmosphere, either hot, cold, violent, or peaceful...

He closed his eyes and felt the changes in these breaths with his heart, trying to find the connection between them.

After a while, he opened his eyes with a confident smile on his face.

"I understand! These nine gems do not represent elemental power, but the nine stars! We need to activate them according to the trajectory of the stars."

As he spoke, he stretched out his fingers and clicked on the nine gems one after another. Every time you click one, that gem will light up with a light and connect with other gems.

When all nine gems lit up, the stone door opened with a bang.

"It's amazing!" Lan Che exclaimed, "Brother Zhao Qi, how did you come up with this idea?"

Zhao Qi smiled, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just a sudden inspiration."

After the three passed through the stone door, they encountered more puzzles and traps.

But no matter what difficulties he encountered, Zhao Qi was able to use his wisdom and cultivation to successfully solve them. His performance impressed both Lan Che and Qing Feng with admiration.

"Brother Zhao Qi, you are really our lucky star!" Lan Che said with a smile, "With you here, we will definitely be able to get out of this maze smoothly."

Qing Feng also nodded, "That's right. Brother Zhao Qi's wisdom and cultivation are beyond our reach. It is really our honor to be able to form an alliance with you."

Zhao Qi smiled when he heard this and said, "Thank you for your praise. In fact, each of us has our own strengths and weaknesses. Only by supporting each other and working together can we go further."

The air inside the maze seems to be getting thicker and heavier, and every step is full of unknown dangers. (End of chapter)
