However, just as the ceremony was about to conclude, something unexpected happened. A powerful dark force surged from the ground, spreading like a black tide, instantly enveloping the entire stage. From the darkness, eerie roars and mournful wails could be heard, as if countless wronged souls were struggling within. This dark force carried a bone-chilling chill, as if it threatened to freeze everything in the world in eternal darkness.
Lin Yu and the others fought fiercely. Old Chen continuously cast talismans, which burned in the darkness, emitting a golden glow, attempting to suppress the dark force. But the dark force was too powerful, and the talisman's light seemed so small before it, and was instantly swallowed up. "This dark force is too strong! We can't hold on!" Old Chen shouted, his forehead covered with sweat, and his eyes revealed a hint of despair. He had never seen such a powerful dark force before, and he couldn't help but doubt whether they could really defeat it.
Lin Yu gritted his teeth and shouted, "Don't give up! Keep going! We can do this!" His voice echoed in the darkness, trying to convey confidence and strength to his teammates. But his heart was also filled with worry, not knowing how much longer he could hold on.
Just when everyone felt desperate, Professor Li shouted in the darkness: "Lin Yu, adjust the drawing of the facial makeup according to the order of the ancient mirror symbols!" In the chaos, Professor Li relied on his deep memory of the ancient mirror symbols and found a way to turn the situation around.
Lin Yu immediately obeyed, quickly repainting his face with a brush. As the mask changed, the dark force seemed to be restrained, gradually weakening. From the darkness, a faint roar of anger could be heard, as if the dark force was struggling unwillingly. Finally, through everyone's combined efforts, the dark force was successfully dispelled. A dazzling light shone from the ancient mirror, merging with the light on the stage. The symbols on the mirror became clearer and brighter, and then, with a flash of light, the mystery within the mirror was finally solved.
At this moment, everyone finally understands the truth behind all this: Zhang Heling and his companions once attempted to use Sichuan Opera's face-changing technique and the power of an ancient mirror to open a passage to another mysterious world and gain powerful strength. However, the ritual went awry, leading to a series of bizarre events. Now, they have successfully restored the power of the ancient mirror, preventing even more dire consequences.
After this thrilling adventure, Lin Yu and the others left the teahouse, exhausted but relieved. The sky was turning pale, and a new day was about to begin. They knew that behind this seemingly peaceful world, many unknown mysteries awaited their exploration, and the mission of Bureau 749 would continue...
