Lin Yu and the others were still trapped in front of the barrier that was flashing with strange light. As time passed, everyone became more and more anxious. Lin Yu looked at the barrier, and the mysterious key in his hand trembled slightly, but he could not find a way to connect it. He was filled with frustration. As the leader of the team, every time he failed to break through the difficulties, he felt that he was incompetent. "Are we really going to be trapped here? No, I can't give up. Everyone is waiting for me to come up with a solution." Lin Yu gritted his teeth, and a trace of determination was revealed in his eyes. He kept recalling his previous experiences in his mind, trying to find inspiration.

Su Yao looked at Lin Yu's furrowed brows, her heart full of heartache. She understood Lin Yu's pressure, and knew that she couldn't panic at this time. "Lin Yu, let's think of a way together. There will always be a way out." Su Yao said softly. Although her voice was gentle, it was also a little nervous. Su Yao secretly clenched her fists and secretly vowed that if she had the chance, she would share more pressure with Lin Yu. She didn't want to see Lin Yu so tired and anxious.

Xiao Yi paced back and forth, his weapon creaking in his grip. "This shabby barrier, why is it so difficult to deal with!" Xiao Yi cursed under his breath, his face filled with impatience. Xiao Yi's heart was filled with resentment. He longed to be able to break through the difficulties with his bravery and strength as before, to prove his strength to everyone. But now, facing this barrier, he was helpless, and his self-esteem was deeply damaged.

Lu Ming's eyes flickered beneath his glasses. He constantly observed the barrier, trying to discern a pattern in the shifting lights. "The frequency of the light seems to be gradually changing, and it's related to our proximity," Lu Ming muttered to himself, his mind racing, trying to piece together the clues. But as time went on, he began to grow anxious, worried that he wouldn't be able to find a solution in time, putting everyone in greater danger.

You Qianxue and Bing Ling'er exchanged a glance, each seeing helplessness in the other's eyes. Their lack of ice power prevented them from providing more help at this moment, and You Qianxue felt filled with self-blame, feeling she had failed everyone's expectations. "If only I were stronger, I could help Lin Yu and the others." You Qianxue's voice was choked with sobs, and Bing Ling'er held her hand tightly. "Sister You Qianxue, we will gradually become stronger, and we can't give up hope now." A hint of determination was revealed in the eyes of the two. They encouraged each other, hoping to find some way to help the team.

The man in red stood quietly by, his eyes revealing a hint of determination. He knew that this was a crucial moment. If he couldn't protect everyone, then everything he had done would be in vain. "No matter what, I will protect them until the very end," the man in red vowed silently in his heart, leaning forward slightly, ready to respond to any danger.

On the distant Blue Dream Planet, Luo Chen, between fierce battles, was plagued by longing and pain. Since being forced to separate from Mengli, he had been practicing diligently to improve his strength, spending less and less time with her. Every time he thought of Mengli's gentle smile, his heart was filled with guilt and sadness.

That day, after the battle, Luo Chen returned to his temporary residence, exhausted both physically and mentally. He turned on his music player, which played the sad melodies he had once listened to with Mengli, which made him feel even more depressed. Luo Chen sat on the edge of the bed, staring blankly ahead, wondering how Mengli was doing and whether she missed her as much as he did.

Suddenly, his WeChat notification chimed. Luo Chen mechanically picked up his phone, only to see a shocking message: "Congratulations on joining the Underworld chat group." Luo Chen's eyes widened, unable to believe what he was seeing. His fingers trembled slightly, and a sense of foreboding welled up in his heart. "What does this mean? A Underworld chat group? Is this a prank?" Luo Chen wondered, but he couldn't calm down.

Luo Chen hesitated for a moment, then clicked on the group chat. The group members' avatars all looked unfamiliar, and their conversations gave Luo Chen a chilling feeling. "Welcome new members! This is the underworld. Your fate is tied to ours," said a figure with a sinister avatar. Luo Chen's heart was filled with fear and confusion. He had no idea what this group chat was for, nor why he had been dragged into it.

At this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through Luo Chen's mind: "Could this be related to Mengli?" He felt panicked and immediately sent a message in the group asking: "Do you know Mengli? Where is she?" However, no one in the group answered his question, there were only some strange laughs and gloomy emoticons.

Luo Chen felt a wave of despair. He clutched his phone tightly, feeling helpless. He didn't know what to do: continue searching for clues in the group chat, or focus on fighting the vanguard troops from outside the domain. "Mengli, where are you? I can't lose you," Luo Chen cried in his heart, his eyes filled with pain and confusion.

Meanwhile, on Tianmeng Star, Xianmeng and the mysterious figure's battle with Mo Qianying had reached a fever pitch. Mo Qianying's strength was beyond imagination, and his dark power constantly assaulted Xianmeng and the mysterious figure's defenses. Xianmeng's face was covered in sweat as she waved her immortal sword, attempting to fend off Mo Qianying's attacks. "Mo Qianying, you will lose today!" Xianmeng shouted, her voice filled with determination, but she also knew in her heart that the outcome of this battle was still uncertain.
