Lin Yu and the others stepped into the Ice Dragon Valley with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation. The moment they entered, a chilling air penetrated their pores and penetrated their bones. The surrounding icy mist obscured their vision, and they could only vaguely see some huge ice spikes hanging above their heads like sharp blades, emitting a cold luster.
Lin Yu tightly grasped the mysterious key. After entering the Ice Dragon Valley, the key trembled slightly, and the warmth it emitted formed a sharp contrast with the icy cold. His eyes scanned the surroundings vigilantly, and the uneasiness in his heart became stronger. "Everyone, maintain a tight formation and do not leave the team at will." Lin Yu said in a deep voice, and his voice echoed in the silent ice valley.
Su Yao held the children's hands tightly, her palms full of sweat, and her face was full of worry. The children's bodies trembled slightly, and fear was revealed in their eyes. "Mom, will we be okay?" A little girl raised her little face and asked in a crying voice. Su Yao suppressed the fear in her heart and squeezed out a smile, "Baby, don't be afraid, the brothers and sisters are very powerful and will protect us." She looked up at Lin Yu's back, silently praying in her heart that everything would go well.
Xiao Yi, on the other hand, was filled with excitement and disdain. He slung his weapon over his shoulder and said, "Hmph, who cares about the Dark Cult or the dangers of this Ice Dragon Valley? I'll kill them all!" His words were filled with heroism, but the grip on his weapon betrayed a hint of nervousness. Lu Fan's betrayal and the previous provocation from the black-robed man had made him eager to prove his strength in this icy valley.
Lu Ming pushed his glasses up, a look of fatigue and contemplation behind them. He observed the surrounding terrain, silently analyzing it in his mind. "The environment in Ice Dragon Valley is more complex than we imagined, and the spiritual energy fluctuations are unusual. We must be careful of hidden traps." Lu Ming's voice was low and calm. He knew that in this place full of unknowns, any small mistake could have fatal consequences.
You Qianxue folded her arms across her chest, icy energy coursing through her body, her eyes revealing a hint of solemnity. As the guardian of the ice cave, she possessed a special sensitivity to this icy land. She could sense a powerful and sinister force stirring deep within the icy mist. "Everyone, be careful! I can sense an evil force approaching." You Qianxue's voice was cold and firm, her body leaning forward slightly, ready to fight at any moment.
Bing Ling'er followed the group, her eyes filled with determination and eagerness. Her training at the Academy of Light had greatly enhanced her strength, and she was eager to prove her worth in this adventure. "I will definitely not hold you back," Bing Ling'er vowed silently, her fists clenched so tightly that her nails dug into her palms.
Just as everyone was moving forward cautiously, some vague figures suddenly appeared in the ice fog ahead. Lin Yu's heart tightened, and he immediately signaled everyone to stop and prepare for battle. As those figures gradually became clearer, they discovered that they were actually people from the five major academies.
"Hmph, I didn't expect to see you here." A representative from one of the five major academies said with a sneer, a hint of disdain in his eyes.
Lin Yu frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"
Another person from one of the five major academies stepped forward and said, "We are naturally here to explore the Ice Dragon Valley as well. However, we will not give the treasures here to you people from the Academy of Light." His words were full of provocation.
Xiao Yi was furious when he heard this. "You guys, stop being so arrogant! We won the previous competition, so we also have the right to explore this Ice Dragon Valley."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, both sides were on the verge of a conflict.
At this moment, the white-haired elder from the Five Great Academies stepped out. He coughed and said, "We've all come here to explore the secrets of Ice Dragon Valley. Why fight among ourselves? This place is fraught with danger. If we fight among ourselves, it will only give the Dark Cult an opportunity to exploit us."
After hearing the old man's words, Lin Yu and others and the people from the five major academies calmed down a little.
Lin Yu thought for a moment and said, "Senior is right. We should put aside our differences for the time being and work together to deal with the dangers in the Ice Dragon Valley. After the exploration is over, we will decide how to distribute the gains here."
Although the people from the five major colleges were somewhat reluctant, they also understood that what Lin Yu said made sense, and nodded in agreement.
Therefore, Lin Yu and others continued to move forward in the Ice Dragon Valley with the people from the five major academies. However, the apparent peace could not conceal the vigilance and precautions in the hearts of both sides.
As they walked, they found themselves in a vast ice maze. Icicles filled the maze, and the paths were intricately woven together, like a giant trap.
"This ice maze looks very dangerous. We have to move forward carefully." Lu Ming said, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
Everyone stepped into the ice maze carefully, taking every step with extreme caution. Suddenly, a strange sound came from the ice maze, as if countless wronged souls were crying. The children were so scared that they hugged Su Yao tightly. Su Yao comforted them softly, but her body couldn't help shaking.
"What's that sound?" Xiao Yi frowned and tightened his grip on the weapon in his hand.
You Qianxue formed hand seals and cast an ice detection spell. "This sound comes from the depths of the ice maze. It seems that a powerful evil force is manipulating all this." You Qianxue's expression became more solemn.
At this moment, many ice golems suddenly appeared around the ice maze. These ice golems were huge, holding ice weapons in their hands, and slowly approached the crowd.
"Everyone be careful, it's an ice puppet!" Lin Yu shouted loudly. He quickly injected the power of the mysterious key into the sealing light array, forming a protective barrier.
