Lin Yu and the others gripped their weapons tightly and cautiously moved deeper into the ice cave. The increasingly strong evil aura was like an invisible giant net, tightly enveloping them and making it difficult for them to breathe. Everyone's nerves were tense, as if a string could break at any time.
Lin Yu walked in front, clutching the mysterious key. The warmth from the key contrasted sharply with the surrounding chill. His wound still ached, and every step was accompanied by a stinging pain, but his eyes were unwavering. "This evil aura is so strong. It seems the enemy ahead is no good. But we have come this far, and we must not retreat." Lin Yu secretly encouraged himself in his heart. At the same time, he was also worried about the safety of his teammates, and from time to time he looked back to observe their condition.
Su Yao held the children tightly. Her palms turned white from excessive force, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. "I can't let the children fall into danger. I must protect them no matter what." Su Yao's eyes revealed the tenacity of a mother. Although her heart was filled with fear, she was willing to face any difficulties for the sake of her children. She looked at Lin Yu's back and was full of trust in him. She believed that he could lead everyone out of the predicament.
Xiao Yi's face lit up with excitement, his eyes gleaming with enthusiasm. For him, a powerful enemy meant a more thrilling battle, a chance to unleash his inner rage. "Come on, no matter who you are, I'm going to fight you today!" Xiao Yi growled, his weapon creaking in his grip like a ferocious beast poised to burst forth from the earth.
Lu Ming pushed his glasses up, a deep worry etched in his eyes. He quickly analyzed the situation. The intensity of the evil aura made him realize they might be facing the ultimate power of the Dark Cult. "We must remain calm and not act blindly. This aura is so powerful, we need to find its weakness to have any chance of victory." Lu Ming pondered, observing the changes in the surrounding ice cave, trying to find some clues.
Lingxi's body trembled slightly as she tried to keep up with the team, but it was still a bit too much. Looking at her teammates' determined backs, she felt a surge of guilt. "I can't hold everyone back any longer. I must find a way to help." Lingxi bit her lip and focused her mental energy, trying to sense the source and characteristics of the evil aura, hoping to provide the team with some useful information.
You Qianxue's expression grew grave, her hands unconsciously clenching, her nails digging into her palms without her noticing. As the guardian of the ice cave, she knew the terrifying power of this evil aura and the immense challenge they were about to face. "This aura is even stronger than I imagined. It seems the Dark Cult is fully prepared. But we cannot retreat. We must protect the secret of the ice cave." You Qianxue vowed silently in her heart, her eyes revealing a hint of determination.
As they continued forward, the temperature in the ice cave dropped lower and lower, and a thick layer of frost began to form on the surrounding ice walls. Suddenly, a huge icy fog appeared in front of them, and a low roar could be heard faintly from the fog, as if some terrifying creature was hiding within.
"Everyone be careful, there is ice fog ahead, and there may be danger inside." Lin Yu whispered to his teammates, his eyes fixed on the ice fog, trying to see through the mystery in it.
Xiao Yi couldn't wait to rush in to find out what was going on, but was stopped by Lin Yu. "Don't be impulsive. We don't know the situation inside yet. It may be dangerous to go in rashly." Lin Yu said. Although his voice was calm, it was unquestionable.
Lu Ming stepped forward and carefully observed the ice fog. "This ice fog is a bit strange. It seems that there is a powerful force in it that is interfering with our perception. We need to be careful." Lu Ming said, a hint of nervousness in his eyes.
At this moment, several black ice cones suddenly shot out from the ice mist and flew towards Lin Yu and others. Lin Yu reacted quickly and used the fusion power of Libra and Cancer to form a shield in front of him, blocking most of the ice cones' attacks. However, a few ice cones still flew past the edge of the shield and almost hit everyone.
"It's the attack of the Dark Cult!" Su Yao shouted loudly. She quickly exerted her ice power and condensed an ice wall in the ice mist, trying to prevent further attacks from the ice cones.
Xiao Yi brandished his weapon, smashing the approaching ice cones one by one. His attacks were sharp and fierce, but he was also a little confused. Why did the enemy only attack from a distance and not show up?
Lu Ming was constantly adjusting his formations in the rear, strengthening his defenses. His eyes were focused and determined, trying to find a flaw in the icy mist and break the enemy's attack.
Lingxi concentrated, using her mental power to penetrate the icy fog and sense the enemy's location. However, the interference within the icy fog was too strong, and she could only perceive vague information. "I sense a powerful mental force within the icy fog controlling these attacks, but I still can't pinpoint their exact location," Lingxi said with difficulty.
Seeing everyone struggling to withstand the attack, You Qianxue took a deep breath, formed seals with her hands, and muttered something. A faint blue light surrounded her body, which gradually merged into the icy mist. The mist began to slowly dissipate, and everyone finally saw the scene within clearly.
In the depths of the ice fog, there was a huge black altar. On the altar stood a man in a black robe, his body surrounded by a strong evil aura. Behind him, there were several members of the Dark Cult, holding various dark instruments in their hands, staring at Lin Yu and others with eager eyes.
