The atmosphere in the secret room was so heavy that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it. Lu Ming and Master Fu Hai were concentrating on interpreting the ancient tome. Every character was like a mysterious key, trying to open the door to the truth. Lin Yu stood aside, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly. The pair of eyes watching them in the darkness always felt like a heavy stone weighing on his heart. His hand unconsciously rested on the hilt of his sword, ready to deal with any possible danger.
Su Yao quietly walked to Lin Yu's side and gently pulled the corner of his clothes. Her palms were full of sweat. "Lin Yu, I always feel that something strange is going to happen here. It seems that something bad is going to happen." Her voice was very low, with a barely perceptible tremor, and her eyes were full of anxiety. Lin Yu patted her hand gently, trying to give her some comfort. "Don't be afraid, I'm here. No matter what happens, we will face it together." But in fact, his heart was also full of anxiety. This secret room was like a huge mystery, and unexpected crises could occur at any second.
Xiao Yi paced back and forth in the chamber, his face still sporting that nonchalant smile, but a hint of nervousness lingered in his eyes. "These traps and secrets are truly a headache, but I'd like to see what else they can come up with!" He spoke, stretching his muscles to try to relieve the pressure. He knew their current situation was extremely dangerous, but his inherent stubbornness and love of adventure kept him from giving up.
You Qianxue and Bing Ling'er huddled close together, Bing Ling'er's body trembling slightly. You Qianxue tried to calm herself, gently stroking Bing Ling'er's hair. "Don't be afraid, sister, we're all here," she soothed softly, her voice trembling slightly. Bing Ling'er nodded vigorously, "Yes, sister, I'm not afraid." She tried to appear strong, but her eyes still revealed a deep fear.
The man in red stood silently in a corner of the chamber, like a statue. His gaze, like the sharpest eagle in the night sky, scanned every corner. His hand rested on the weapon at his waist, ready to face any enemy. He held a single conviction: to protect everyone until the Key to Spring was found. Recalling his previous battles against the forces of darkness, those moments of shared life and death, he strengthened his resolve.
Luo Chen and the mysterious man stood beside Lu Ming and Master Fu Hai. Luo Chen's eyes were filled with curiosity and anticipation. He stared intently at the tome, trying to gain more information from Lu Ming and Master Fu Hai's interpretation. "Seniors, what else is recorded here?" he couldn't help but ask, his voice tinged with urgency. The mysterious man frowned slightly, his eyes deep and mysterious, as if he was lost in thought, and didn't immediately answer Luo Chen's question.
Just as Lu Ming and Master Fu Hai were about to decipher more key information, a strange laugh suddenly rang out from the secret room. This laughter echoed in every corner of the secret room, making people's hair stand on end. "Who?" Lin Yu shouted loudly, and the sword in his hand was instantly unsheathed. A cold light flashed. Everyone became alert and took fighting stances.
A dark shadow slowly emerged from the darkness. His figure was blurry, as if condensed from the darkness. "You think you can find the secret key of spring?" The shadow's voice was low and hoarse, full of ridicule. Lin Yu's eyes revealed determination and resoluteness. "No matter who you are, don't try to stop us!" He gripped his sword tightly, ready to rush at the shadow at any time.
The shadow sneered, "Then give it a try!" As soon as the words fell, the shadow disappeared in an instant. Then, the temperature in the secret room dropped sharply, and black ice spikes protruded from the ground and shot towards everyone. Lin Yu quickly waved his sword and blocked the ice spikes one by one. "Everyone be careful, this enemy's power is very strange!" He shouted loudly.
Su Yao gathered her spiritual power and tried to use light to dispel the darkness. "Lin Yu, I'll help you!" Her voice was firm, and her eyes revealed her trust in Lin Yu. Xiao Yi rushed towards the direction where the shadow disappeared like a brave beast. "Don't hide, come out and fight me head-on if you have the guts!" His voice was full of deterrence, but he knew in his heart that this shadow was no ordinary person.
Lu Ming and Master Fu Hai paused their work and channeled their spiritual energy into building shields for everyone. "Everyone, hold on! We'll definitely find his weakness!" Lu Ming shouted, his eyes gleaming with calmness and wisdom. Master Fu Hai clasped his hands together, muttering something, and spiritual energy poured continuously into the shields.
You Qianxue and Bing Ling'er coordinated their efforts, unleashing their icy spiritual energy to try to fend off the attack of the black ice spikes. You Qianxue's face was pale; her spiritual energy had been greatly depleted in the previous battle, and she was now somewhat powerless. "Sister Bing Ling'er, I... I can't hold on any longer," she said, her voice choking with sobs. Bing Ling'er clasped her hand tightly, "Sister, don't give up. Let's work together!" Her eyes were filled with determination and resolve.
The man in red darted around the crowd, his figure like a flash of black lightning, always blocking the icy spikes that shot towards them in time. "As long as I'm here, I won't let you get hurt!" His voice was deep and powerful, full of a sense of responsibility.
Luo Chen and the mysterious man concentrated their efforts, trying to locate the shadow. Luo Chen's eyes revealed a resolute and determined look. "Senior, we must find him!" The mysterious man nodded slightly, the magical weapon in his hand gleaming with a strange light. "He's right next to us, just hiding deep." The mysterious man's voice was low and mysterious, leaving no room for interpretation.
In the fierce battle, Lin Yu suddenly discovered that the black shadow's attack seemed to have some connection with the runes in the secret room. He was moved and shouted loudly: "Everyone, don't attack blindly. Pay attention to the runes in the secret room. This may be the source of his power!" Hearing this, everyone began to observe the runes around them.
