Ouyang Zhenghao instinctively swung his weapon, slashing at the shadow. The weapon passed through the shadow without causing any damage, and the shadow continued to pounce on him. Ouyang Zhenghao felt a chill wash over him, as if to freeze his soul. "This thing isn't afraid of attack!" Ouyang Zhenghao shouted, a hint of panic on his face. He had never encountered such a strange situation before, and fear spread like a tide within him.
Lin Yu quickly pondered a response, his mind racing in the tense atmosphere. "These lights and shadows might be some kind of energy body; physical attacks are ineffective against them.

However, the light and shadows struggled more violently, emitting bursts of sharp hissing sounds, as if angrily resisting this mysterious power. A tense and terrifying atmosphere filled the basement.
