Changsheng: My qualifications improve a little every day

Seeing this, the fox girl's ribbon in her hand flew, and instantly turned into colorful sharp blades, shooting towards the sandworm's eyes.

The sandworm seemed to sense the danger and quickly closed its huge eyes, using its hard shell to block the fox girl's attack.

Then, it swung its huge body violently, and its huge tail swept towards Fang Yue and the fox girl.

Fang Yue and the fox girl quickly jumped back to avoid the fierce attack.

"The sandworm's defense is too strong. We have to find its weakness." Fang Yue shouted, with a serious look in his eyes.

While avoiding the sandworm's attack, Fang Yue carefully observed the sandworm's movements.

He discovered that whenever the sandworm was about to launch a powerful attack, a flash of light would appear near the abdomen below its body, and the shell there seemed to be slightly different from other parts.

"Fox girl, have you noticed? The area below the sandworm's abdomen may be its weak point. Let's focus our attack there." Fang Yue said.

The fox girl nodded, and she cast a spell again. The ribbon in her hand turned into a huge colorful light net and scattered towards the sandworm.

The moment the light net touched the sandworm, it tightly wrapped around its body, restricting its movement.

Fang Yue seized the opportunity and rushed towards the sandworm like a ghost.

He jumped high, with the spear in his hand infused with powerful energy, and stabbed it fiercely at the flashing light under the sandworm's abdomen.

The moment the spear touched the sandworm's shell, there was a sharp friction sound and countless sparks flew.

This time, the spear successfully pierced the sandworm's shell a little bit. The sandworm roared in pain and struggled frantically, trying to break free from the light net.

The fox girl tried her best to maintain the light net, and at the same time increased the output of magic power to make the light net more resilient.

Fang Yue took the opportunity to exert force again and stabbed the spear deeper into the sandworm's abdomen.

The sandworm's struggle became more and more violent. Its body kept twisting, and the surrounding sand dunes were shattered by it. The sky was filled with dust and covered the sun.

Just as Fang Yue was about to further attack the sandworm's vital points, the sandworm suddenly released a powerful energy wave, shattering the light net.

The fox girl's magic power backfired and her face turned slightly pale, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted.

After breaking free from its restraints, the sandworm did not launch an attack immediately, but instead retreated a distance, its huge eyes staring at Fang Yue and the fox girl, its eyes full of anger and vigilance.

"It has become more cautious. We have to be careful." Fang Yue said to the fox girl.

The two men once again assumed fighting stances, ready for the next round of attacks from the sandworms.

The sandworm seemed to be accumulating strength. The light around its body became brighter and brighter. The surrounding sand began to rotate rapidly around it, forming small sandstorms.

Suddenly, the sandworms attacked.

It opened its huge mouth and spurted out a powerful stream of sand mixed with sharp stones, which swept towards Fang Yue and the fox girl like sharp blades.

Fang Yue waved his spear, forming an energy shield in front of him, trying to resist the impact of the sand flow.

The fox girl cast a spell, raising colorful light curtains around them to strengthen their defense.

The sand flow hit the shield and light curtain, making crackling sounds, and sand and stones continued to hit them, splashing sparks.

After resisting the sand flow attack, Fang Yue and the fox girl did not relax at all.

They knew that they must find an opportunity to attack the sandworm's weakness again as soon as possible, otherwise if they were stuck in a protracted war, it would be extremely disadvantageous to them.

Fang Yue's eyes narrowed, and he decided to take the initiative.

He stuck the spear into the ground, quickly formed seals with his hands, and muttered something.

As the spell was recited, the ground around the spear began to vibrate, and rays of ochre light emerged from the ground and shot towards the sandworm.

When these rays of light approached the sandworm, they suddenly turned into huge earth thorns, stabbing out from the ground towards the weak spot under the sandworm's abdomen.

The sandworm sensed the danger and wanted to hide, but due to its huge body, its movements were a little slow.

The earth thorn successfully pierced the sandworm's abdomen. Although it did not cause fatal damage, it injured it again.

The sandworm roared in pain and its body shook violently.

The fox girl took the opportunity to cast a spell again. The ribbon in her hand turned into a huge colorful python and pounced towards the sandworm's eyes.

The colorful python opened its mouth wide and bit the sandworm's eyes hard.

In panic, the sandworm used its front limbs to resist the attack of the colorful python.

Fang Yue seized the opportunity, picked up the spear again, and rushed towards the wound on the sandworm's abdomen.

This time, he gathered all the energy in his body into the spear, and the spear emitted a dazzling light.

He thrust the spear deep into the wound in the sandworm's abdomen and twisted it hard.

The sandworm let out a shrill scream, and its huge body fell down with a loud bang, raising a cloud of dust.

As the huge body of the sandworm fell to the ground with a bang, the dust that was raised gradually settled. Fang Yue and the fox girl's tense nerves finally relaxed a little, but they were both extremely exhausted.

Fang Yue looked at the fox girl and was about to speak, but found that the fox girl's expression was a little strange.

He followed the fox girl's gaze and saw that the ribbon in her hand had become dull and its original vibrant colors had disappeared. There were also many torn spots on it, as if it had lost its vitality.

"My ribbon..."

The fox girl's voice was tinged with sadness.

This ribbon has been with her for many years. It is a relic left by her mother and one of the three secret treasures of the fox clan.

I didn't expect it to be damaged here today.

The fox clan was almost wiped out, and now the important secret treasure of the clan has also suffered such severe damage. The fox girl's heart is full of self-blame and pain.

She gently stroked the torn part of the ribbon, as if she could feel the remaining breath of her mother gradually dissipating.

Fang Yue watched silently from the side. He knew very well the significance of this ribbon to the fox girl. It was not only a magic weapon, but also a symbol of her emotions and family.

"We must find a way to fix it." Fang Yue said firmly, trying to give the fox girl some comfort.

The fox girl shook her head slightly, tears in her eyes: "This is a treasure passed down by the ancestors of the fox clan. The power and secrets contained in it cannot be easily repaired. Moreover, the fox clan is now in decline, and most of the clan members who know how to repair it are no longer around."

After a while, the fox girl put away the ribbon and looked at Fang Yue with a much firmer look in her eyes.

"Let's hurry up and find a way to leave here and go to the human world as soon as possible."

Fang Yue nodded, knowing that this was not the time to dwell in sorrow. After a brief rest, the two men headed deeper into the mysterious ruins, hoping to find clues to leave.

Along the way, neither of them spoke, only the rustling sound of their footsteps on the sand.

The ancient ruins around them looked more and more worn out by the erosion of time, and the blurred patterns on the walls seemed to be silently telling the glory and mystery of the past. After walking for a long time, they came to the core area of ​​the ruins, where the architectural style was more magnificent, and the huge stone pillars were engraved with fine reliefs. Although some parts had been eroded by wind and sand, the exquisite craftsmanship could still be seen.

The two stopped and carefully observed everything around them.

Not long after, the fox girl pointed to a relief and said, "Look at these patterns. They depict a prosperous country. People are wearing gorgeous clothes, and there are gold decorations everywhere. This seems to be the golden country in the legend of the demon world?"

"The country of gold?" Fang Yue asked puzzledly.

He had been to the demon world several times and had never heard of this so-called golden country.

This is the first time I heard of it.

The fox girl nodded slightly, with a flash of reminiscence in her eyes: “This golden country has appeared in the ancient legends of our fox tribe.

Legend has it that this place was once extremely prosperous, and gold was just the most common thing. They possessed a mysterious and powerful power, which was enough to change the fate of the entire demon world and even more worlds.

But for some reason, this country suddenly disappeared, and we didn’t expect that we would accidentally enter here today.”

Fang Yue nodded slightly, but no matter what happened to the Golden Kingdom.

Now it is obvious that there is only a ruin left here, and there is no valuable item at all.

The most urgent task is to find a way to leave here and go to the human world.

The fox girl shook her head gently: "There must be clues here. This country was once so powerful that it would not leave nothing behind. Perhaps those lost secrets are hidden in these seemingly ordinary ruins and reliefs."

As she spoke, she walked towards a stone pillar and gently brushed her fingers over the blurred patterns on the relief.

Fang Yue followed behind her, looking at her focused expression, and began to re-examine the surrounding environment.

He tapped the ground lightly with his spear, feeling the vibrations from the ground, trying to determine if there was an underground space or hidden mechanism.

Not far away, Fang Yue discovered a stone slab on the ground that was different from the surrounding ones. Its color was slightly darker, and there were some strange patterns on it.

He squatted down and observed the lines carefully, and found that they seemed similar to some symbols in the reliefs on the stone pillars.

"Fox girl, come and see." Fang Yue shouted.

The fox girl walked over quickly, and after seeing the patterns on the stone slab, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "These patterns may be the key to open a certain passage or secret room. Let's try to crack it."

They began to study the connection between these patterns and the relief symbols.

After some comparison and reflection, the fox girl discovered that the patterns were actually arranged in a special order, and this order was hinted at in a relief depicting a sacrificial ceremony in the Kingdom of Gold.

"If you touch these lines in this order, you may be able to open it." said the fox girl.

Fang Yue followed the order the fox girl said and gently touched the lines on the stone slab with his spear.

When the last pattern was touched, the stone slab made a low roar, then slowly moved away, revealing a staircase leading downwards.

An ancient and mysterious atmosphere wafts towards you from the bottom of the stairs.

"What we are looking for should be down there." Fang Yue said.

They walked down the stairs carefully.

The walls on both sides of the stairs are inlaid with some crystals emitting faint light, illuminating the way forward.

The further down we went, the more humid the air became, mixed with a stale smell.

At the end of the stairs, they came to a huge basement.

The basement was filled with various boxes and shelves, on which were placed many items, including ancient books and strange-shaped instruments.

Unfortunately, although these things are exquisite, they will all turn into dust with just a gust of wind.

Fang Yue and the fox girl looked at the items that turned into dust. Although they felt regretful, the determination in their eyes did not diminish.

They know they can't stop here.

The two continued to walk deeper into the basement, and a narrow passage appeared in front of them. From time to time, a faint fluorescent light flashed on the walls of the passage, as if the ancient runes were breathing.

As they walked along the passage, they could feel the air around them becoming increasingly heavy, as if it was hiding countless pairs of prying eyes.

After walking for a while, the passage began to widen and a huge stone door appeared in front.

The stone gate is engraved with complex patterns, including flying dragons and phoenixes, and immortals fighting each other. Each pattern is lifelike, as if telling an ancient legend.

There is a circular groove in the center of the stone gate, surrounded by some strange symbols.

"It looks like this stone door requires something special to open." Fang Yue walked forward and carefully observed the grooves and symbols on the stone door.

The fox girl was also thinking: "These symbols seem to be a little different from what we have seen before. Maybe we need to look for clues from other places."

They searched for clues around the stone gate, and the fox girl found a small mural on the wall on one side of the stone gate.

The mural depicts a sacrificial scene. On the altar is a round object emitting light, and people around it are worshipping.

The shape of this round object is exactly the same as the groove on the stone gate.

"It seems we need to find this round object to open the stone door." said the fox girl.

Just as they were about to continue searching, the stone door suddenly vibrated and the runes on the door flickered, as if something behind the door was trying to break free.

Fang Yue and the fox girl immediately prepared for battle and stared at the stone gate vigilantly.

As the vibration became more and more intense, some tiny cracks appeared on the stone door. A powerful force surged out from the cracks, pushing Fang Yue and the fox girl backwards.

Some black tentacles gradually stretched out from the cracks, twisting and attacking them.

Fang Yue swung his spear, the spear light flashed, and cut off several tentacles.

But more tentacles emerged from the cracks and rushed towards them.

The fox girl cast a spell, and flames burst out from her hands, burning the tentacles.

However, these tentacles seem to have tenacious vitality, and they grow back quickly after being cut off or burned.

"This is not a solution. We have to find a way to stop them from coming out." Fang Yue shouted.

The fox girl looked at the ever-widening cracks on the stone door, and an idea occurred to her: "Let's try attacking the runes on the stone door, maybe we can stop them."

The two of them concentrated their strength and attacked the runes on the stone door. Fang Yue's spear stabbed out sharp spear rays, and the fox girl's spells also continuously bombarded the runes.

Under their attack, the runes on the stone gate flickered and the speed at which the tentacles emerged gradually slowed down.

After a hard fight, they finally succeeded in stopping the tentacles from pouring out. The cracks on the stone door also stopped expanding, and the surroundings returned to peace. (End of this chapter)
