Chapter 664 Exploring the Ruins and Hidden Dangers
Holding the Heart of the Universe, Lin Yu slowly approached the energy barrier that shimmered with an eerie light. His gaze was fixed on the point of contact between the Heart of the Universe and the barrier, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead, his expression focused and tense. As the Heart of the Universe drew closer, the light on the barrier began to fluctuate, the previously stable energy flow became disordered, and a faint resonance was formed with the energy of the Heart of the Universe.
"Everyone, come quick! There's a reaction!" Lin Yu shouted excitedly. The team members quickly gathered around, their eyes shining with hope. Ellie hurriedly took out the energy analysis instrument to monitor and analyze the energy fluctuations generated by the resonance in real time. "The frequency of this resonance is very peculiar. We need to adjust the energy output of the Heart of the Universe to make it more compatible with the barrier," Ellie said urgently while staring at the instrument screen.
Lin Yu took a deep breath, concentrated, and carefully controlled the energy output of the Heart of the Universe. With the fine-tuning of the energy frequency, the resonance between the Heart of the Universe and the energy barrier grew stronger, and the light on the barrier began to flicker more intensely, seemingly about to be breached. However, at that moment, the barrier suddenly emitted a powerful energy pulse, blasting Lin Yu and the others away.
"Cough cough..." Lin Yu struggled to his feet, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes revealing resentment. "This barrier's counterattack is fierce; we must find a more effective method," a member of the mysterious fleet said, frowning. A brief silence fell as everyone considered their options.
Suddenly, Xiao Wang remembered some ancient symbols he had encountered in the ruins, symbols that seemed to be related to energy manipulation. He quickly drew those symbols on the ground and explained to everyone, "Could these symbols be the key to breaking the barrier? We can try adjusting the energy frequency of the Heart of the Universe in this order." After listening, everyone thought it made sense and decided to give it a try.
Under Ellie's guidance, Lin Yu once again manipulated the Heart of the Universe, adjusting the energy frequency according to the sequence of symbols drawn by Xiao Wang. This time, the resonance between the Heart of the Universe and the energy barrier became more stable, and the light on the barrier gradually softened, no longer exhibiting strong counterattacks. With a soft "hum," the energy barrier finally dissipated slowly, revealing the entrance to the ruins.
Excited, the group cautiously entered the ruins. An ancient and mysterious aura permeated the interior, and the walls were covered with strange patterns and inscriptions, seemingly telling tales of the distant past. They followed the passageway to a vast circular hall. In the center of the hall, suspended in mid-air, was a massive energy structure; at its core lay the second Heart of the Universe they had been searching for.
Just as everyone was preparing to approach the Heart of the Universe, the floor of the hall suddenly began to shake, and countless sharp spikes burst forth from the ground, hurtling towards them. "Watch out!" Lin Yu shouted, quickly jumping aside to dodge. The team members all used their skills to avoid the spikes' attacks. However, the number of spikes increased, and the attacks became more and more intense, gradually trapping everyone in a predicament.
"This can't go on! We have to find a way to stop these attacks!" Ellie shouted anxiously. Lin Yu looked around and spotted a small energy control console in the corner of the hall. He guessed that the console might be related to the ruins' defense system, so he decided to risk rushing over.
Lin Yu flashed forward, dashing towards the control panel. Along the way, he dodged left and right, avoiding countless spikes. Finally, he successfully reached the control panel. However, when he tried to operate it, he found the symbols and patterns completely unfamiliar, leaving him utterly clueless.
Just as Lin Yu was at his wit's end, Ellie suddenly remembered some symbols she had seen at the entrance to the ruins. Those symbols seemed to have some connection to the ones on the control panel. She quickly told Lin Yu the order of the symbols via communicator. Following Ellie's instructions, Lin Yu tried operating the control panel. A miracle occurred: the spikes on the ground gradually stopped attacking and slowly retracted underground.
The crisis was temporarily averted, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They continued to approach the Heart of the Universe. The moment Lin Yu's hand touched the second Heart of the Universe, a powerful and warm energy surged into his body, giving him an unprecedented sense of power. At the same time, some blurry images suddenly flashed through his mind, seemingly clues about the third Heart of the Universe.
Before Lin Yu could process the images, a violent tremor suddenly erupted outside the ruins, as if something enormous was approaching. Everyone's expressions instantly turned serious, unsure what new danger was about to befall them…
