Creation and immortality: I can manifest endless talents

Qian Gu carefully checked the mechanism of the secret door, and after confirming that there was no trap, he slowly pushed the secret door open. A cold breath rushed towards them, and they found a stone staircase leading down.

Qian Gu signaled the team members to be alert, they lit torches, and slowly walked down the stone steps. As they went deeper, the air was filled with a damp and musty smell, and dense moss grew on the walls on both sides of the stone steps.

After walking for a long time, they came to a spacious basement. There was a huge stone table here, and the table was filled with various strange instruments and scrolls. Qian Gu's eyes swept over these items, and he felt that there was some kind of secret hidden here.

Suddenly, a team member found a heavy book in a corner of the stone table, with ancient Naxi characters engraved on the cover. Qian Gu walked over, carefully turned the pages, and found that it was a map of this world.

Seeing the map, Qian Gu's face was suddenly ecstatic.

With the map, they finally didn't have to try their luck everywhere like headless flies.

With such an important harvest, the team stopped exploring. Under Qiangu's leadership, the team quickly evacuated the courtyard and returned to the camp in the woods.

As the night deepened, Qiangu's team sat around the campfire in the woods, with the shadows of the flames on everyone's face.

They held the precious map in their hands, were silent for a while, and then began to discuss the next action plan.

Qiangu unfolded the map, and his fingertips stopped deep in the Naxi territory, where a mysterious symbol was marked.

His eyes were firm, as if he had made a decision.

"Our next goal is here." Qiangu's voice was particularly clear in the night.

The team members stared at the map. Although they were not clear about the meaning of the symbol, they could all feel Qiangu's determination.

"What does that symbol represent?" A team member asked curiously.

Qiangu took a deep breath, his eyes like a torch, "It is said that it is the holy land of the Naxi people and the source of their power. If we can understand the secrets there, it will be of great help to our next action."

There was a whisper in the team, and everyone was curious about the news. But they also knew that such a place must be heavily guarded and full of dangers.

"We must proceed with caution," Qiangu continued, "We need a detailed plan and adequate preparation before entering the holy land."

The atmosphere of the team became serious, and everyone realized the importance of this operation.

It was late at night, and Qiangu did not immediately issue an action order, but asked the team members to rest and recover their strength. They will set out before dawn, taking advantage of the cover of night, quietly approaching the holy land of the Naxi people.

The firelight jumped, and Qiangu sat alone, studying the map in his hand intently. In his mind, he kept planning the route and possible difficulties, trying to find the best way to move.

Finally, the sky was white, and Qiangu stood up, with a firm light in his eyes. He woke up the team members and arranged the tasks concisely.

"We will be divided into three groups, one for reconnaissance, one for cover, and one for breakthrough. In any case, we must keep in touch and retreat immediately if we find anything abnormal."

The team members quickly acted according to Qiangu's orders. Their movements were skillful and orderly, and everyone showed their elite qualities.

Under Qiangu's leadership, the team quietly left the camp and embarked on a journey to the Naxi Holy Land.

They passed through the winding mountain roads and the dense forests, taking every step carefully so as not to alarm the enemies lurking in the dark.

As they went deeper, the surrounding environment became more and more treacherous, but Qiangu's team did not slow down. Their goal was clear, which was to unveil the mystery of the Naxi Holy Land.

The sun rose slowly, and the golden sunlight penetrated the treetops, bringing a touch of warmth to the land. Qiangu knew that what they were about to face might be the biggest challenge. But he believed that as long as they were united, nothing was impossible.

But although the idea was good, the reality was very hard.

Just as Qiangu's team was walking through the dense forest, trying not to leave any traces, suddenly, an arrow silently cut through the air and embedded into the shoulder of a team member.

The team member cried out in pain and almost fell, but he was quickly stabilized by his companions.

Qiangu's eyes were stern, and he immediately signaled the team to stop, and his gestures quickly and accurately directed the team members to hide and find cover.

Their training enabled them to react in a very short time, and everyone quickly found a hidden position.

The tense atmosphere spread in the air, and the team members held their breath and stared, only hearing the rustling of leaves around them and the unknown footsteps coming from a distance. Qiangu's eyes were fixed on the surroundings, and he knew that these footsteps belonged to the Naxi scouts.

Soon, several figures appeared in their sight. They were wearing the unique costumes of the Naxi people, holding bows and arrows, and vigilantly searching every corner. Obviously, Qiangu's team had entered the Naxi cordon and was discovered by the scouts.

Qiangu gently made a gesture, indicating that the team members were ready to fight. He knew that it was no longer possible to advance in secret, and the only option was to break through.

He whispered an order: "Spread out the actions, attract their attention, and then concentrate your strength to break through the weakest point."

The team members nodded, then scattered, using trees and terrain as cover, and began to move strategically. Their movements were swift and silent, trying to avoid attracting more attention.

Qiangu chose a direction where there seemed to be relatively few scouts. He motioned for several team members to follow him and prepare to break through the blockade there.

Just then, a scout noticed the abnormality and sounded the alarm. Qiangu knew that time was running out and they had to act immediately.

"Now!" Qiangu shouted and led the way out.

The team members followed closely behind, they drew their daggers and daggers, and engaged in fierce close combat with the Naxi scouts. The sound of swords clashing, shouts, and arrows piercing the air came one after another.

Tieyi opened the way in front, his sword skills were sharp and accurate, and every swing of the sword could force the scouts to retreat.

Gu Yang's long sword was like a blade of death, constantly harvesting the lives of the enemy.

At the same time, the other team members were not to be outdone. They cooperated tacitly, covered each other, and gradually broke through in the predetermined direction.

Just when they were about to break through the siege, more Naxi warriors arrived at the scene, and their arrival made the situation even more dangerous.

Qiangu realized that they had to break through as soon as possible, otherwise they would fall into a deeper predicament.

After a fierce battle, the team finally broke through the Naxi blockade. They did not stop and continued to rush in this direction.

They knew that there was no way to find the holy land and uncover the secrets.

The more important thing now was to break through the siege and get rid of the pursuit of the Naxi.

Only by saving their lives and surviving, they would have a chance to complete their mission.

Tieyi's heartbeat accelerated, and he could feel the pursuit of the Naxi warriors behind him getting closer and closer.

His eyes were firm, the sword in his hand danced with cold light, and every counterattack seemed extremely decisive. He knew that their only hope now was to evacuate quickly and find a safe place to make plans.

"Run!" Qiangu's voice rang in the ears of the team members, and their footsteps became faster, jumping through a dense forest, trying to get rid of the pursuers behind them.

But the speed of the Naxi warriors was equally amazing. They seemed to know the forest well. Even in the dense woods, they could easily track Qiangu and his team.

Arrows flew from behind from time to time, and each time Qiangu's team was in danger. A team member's leg was scratched by an arrow. He gritted his teeth in pain and still insisted on moving forward.

"Tieyi, cover the rear!" Qiangu ordered loudly. Tieyi nodded and immediately turned around to block the rear of the team. His sword dance was more crazy, and every time he swung his sword, a blood mist was brought up.

Gu Yang also joined the battle. His long sword was like the sickle of the god of death. Every time he swung his sword, the Naxi warriors retreated in fear.

The other members of the team also performed their duties. Some were responsible for scouting the surrounding movements, while others helped the injured team members to move forward quickly.

Qiangu's eyes scanned the front, looking for an escape route.

He noticed that there was a stream not far away. The stream was turbulent and the rocks on both sides were uneven. If he could cross this stream, he might be able to temporarily get rid of the pursuers.

"Break out in the direction of the stream!" Qiangu gave the order decisively.

Under his leadership, the team rushed to the stream. They jumped over the rocks in the stream, splashing water. The stream was freezing cold, but it did not slow them down at all.

The Naxi warriors chased them closely, but when they tried to cross the stream, they were forced to slow down because they were unfamiliar with the terrain.

Qiangu and his team took the opportunity to speed up. They passed through a dense bush and then quickly ascended along a ridge, trying to take advantage of the high ground to get rid of the pursuers.

Behind them, the shouts of the Naxi warriors gradually became blurred. Qiangu knew that they were temporarily out of direct danger, but he also knew that this was only temporary safety.

"We need to find a hiding place," Qiangu said to the team members, "Here, we are too easy to be discovered."

The team members nodded in agreement, their breathing gradually stabilized, but the vigilance in their eyes did not diminish.

Under Qiangu's leadership, the team continued to move forward. They found a hidden cave and decided to rest here temporarily, recover their strength, and make a new plan.

Qiangu sat at the entrance of the cave, his eyes looking into the distance through the dense forest. He knew that this failure did not mean the end of everything. They still had a chance. As long as they could survive, there was still hope.

The holy land of the Naxi people, that mysterious place, was still waiting for them to explore and uncover its secrets.

And Qiangu, as the leader of the team, he would lead his team and keep moving forward until they completed their mission.

Under Qiangu's command, the team quickly reorganized in the cave. They checked their weapons, treated their wounds, and sent several members who were good at stealth to investigate the surrounding movements. Qiangu knew that they needed to understand the actions of the Naxi people as soon as possible in order to formulate an effective response strategy.

In the cave, the light was dim, and the faces of the team members were full of fatigue and tension, but with Qiangu's encouragement, everyone was trying to maintain morale. They believed that as long as they were united, there would be no difficulties that could not be overcome.

"We can't just give up," Qiangu whispered, his voice firm and powerful, "The holy land of the Naxi people hides secrets that we must know. We have come here, and there is no way out."

The team members nodded one after another, and their eyes were rekindled with fighting spirit. Each of them came for the same goal, which was to uncover the secrets of the Naxi holy land and use these secrets to complete their mission.

The scouting team members came back soon, and they brought back the movements of the Naxi people. According to their observations, the Naxi warriors seemed to be gathering towards the cave. Their actions were orderly and clearly carefully deployed.

After listening to the report, Qiangu pondered for a moment, and then began to arrange a new action plan.

"We can't stay here for long," Qiangu said, "We need to distract their attention, create chaos, and then find an opportunity to approach the holy land again."

He quickly assigned tasks. Some team members were responsible for creating illusions to attract the attention of the Naxi people, while the other team members took the opportunity to sneak towards the holy land.

Night fell again, and Qiangu led several team members to quietly leave the cave. They walked carefully through the woods, trying to avoid making any noise.

But unfortunately, they were still discovered by the Naxi scouts.

At this time, Qiangu and others did not know that after finally catching their tail, the Naxi guards of the forbidden area had already sent out a large army to completely surround the nearby area.

In this situation, Qiangu knew that they could no longer force their way in as before, and they had to use their wits. He signaled the team members to stop, quickly drew a map of the nearby terrain on the ground, and began to make a new plan.

"We must take advantage of the complexity of this terrain to create multiple interference points to confuse the enemy." Qiangu's voice was low and powerful, "Divide into small groups, each group is responsible for creating a interference point, and then find a breakthrough in the chaos."

The team members quickly divided into groups, and everyone knew their tasks. They dispersed and quietly moved to their respective positions.

Qiangu led a small team of people and found an area with fewer Naxi scouts. They began to make noises, imitating the sound of a large army marching, to attract the attention of the scouts.

At the same time, another group of team members lit hay on the other side, and thick smoke rose, looking like someone was ambushing there.

The third group of team members deliberately left some obvious footprints to guide the Naxi pursuers to chase in another direction. (End of this chapter)
