Inside the Ice Hall, the three factions were on edge, the air seemingly frozen by the tense atmosphere. Lin Yu, cloaked in his "cloak of invisibility," shrouded in darkness, had initially thought victory was certain, but this sudden turn of events disrupted his rhythm. Sweat streamed down his forehead, his heartbeat accelerated, and his brain raced, pondering a response.
"Lin Yu, what should we do? With the arrival of the Holy Church of Light, the situation has become more complicated." Xing Lan's anxious voice sounded in his mind.
Lin Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down: "Don't panic, let's see what they do first." He stared at the people of the Holy Church of Light, trying to find flaws in their expressions and movements.
The young man from the Holy Church of Light took a step forward, the sacred sword in his hand shining with light. "This ancient book concerns the lives of all people in the world. How can you dark forces like you get your hands on it?" His voice was cold, and his eyes revealed an unquestionable majesty.
The leader of the Dark Cult snorted coldly: "Stop pretending here. Don't think I don't know what your Holy Church of Light is thinking." The staff in his hand trembled slightly, and he was obviously very angry about the appearance of the Holy Church of Light.
Lin Yu took advantage of the gap between the two sides to quietly return to his companions and lifted the hidden state. When Su Yao saw him, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then it was replaced by worry: "Lin Yu, are you okay? What should I do?" Her voice trembled slightly, and her hands unconsciously tugged at the corners of her clothes.
Lin Yu patted Su Yao's shoulder and tried to comfort her: "Don't be afraid, let's take a look at the situation first." He turned to look at Xiao Yi and Lu Ming. Xiao Yi's face was full of excitement, with a fighting light in his eyes, as if he was full of anticipation for this chaotic situation; Lu Ming pushed his glasses, and the look behind the lenses revealed calmness and thinking. He quickly took out various instruments from his backpack and tested the surrounding environment and the three forces.
"Lin Yu, the strength of the Holy Church of Light and the Dark Church should not be underestimated. We must act with caution." Lu Ming said in a low voice.
Lin Yu nodded: "I know, everyone stay alert and follow my instructions."
At this moment, Xing Lan's voice rang out again: "Lin Yu, it's time to sign in every day! At this critical moment, you might be able to draw a treasure that can turn the tide!"
Lin Yu smiled bitterly in his heart: "Xinglan, I hope you can really bring me good luck this time." He silently signed in, the virtual interface appeared, and the pointer spun rapidly.
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the 'Time Stagnation Orb', which can freeze surrounding time for three seconds. It can only be used once a day."
Lin Yu's eyes lit up: "This gem is really a timely help!" He could feel that this gem might play a key role in the upcoming chaos.
Just as Lin Yu and the others were discussing in secret, the leader of the Dark Cult suddenly attacked. He swung his staff, and a black flame column blasted towards the people of the Holy Light Cult. The young man of the Holy Light Cult's face changed, and he quickly swung his sword. A sacred light met the black flame, and the two collided, erupting with a strong energy fluctuation. Cracks appeared on the walls of the Ice Palace.
"Go!" Lin Yu shouted. He knew that in this chaotic situation, he had to take the initiative to attack in order to find a glimmer of hope. He unleashed his newly awakened superpowers, and a multicolored light intertwined with the power of ice elements, blasting towards a black-robed man from the Dark Cult. The black-robed man dodged quickly, but was still hit by the energy wave, and his body was instantly covered in a layer of frost.
Xiao Yi shouted, brandishing his weapon and charging towards the Holy Light Church's camp. His idea was simple: since neither side was willing to play nice, he'd better disrupt their rhythm. His weapon flashed with a cold light, and each strike carried a fierce momentum. Several members of the Holy Light Church were caught off guard by his sudden attack.
Lu Ming, in the rear, continuously threw various small props. Some released powerful magnetic fields to disrupt the Dark Cult's spellcasting, while others emitted high-temperature steam, attempting to melt the Holy Light Cult's sacred shield. His forehead was covered in sweat, and his hands trembled slightly with tension and fatigue, but his eyes remained remarkably firm as he focused on observing the battlefield, searching for the enemy's weaknesses.
Su Yao tried her best to maintain the defensive shield and protect her companions. Her face was pale and her forehead was covered with sweat. Every time she maintained the shield, she consumed a lot of her physical strength and supernatural powers. But she gritted her teeth and persisted. She knew that her defense was the last line of defense for her companions.
Lin Yu shuttled across the battlefield, his target the leader of the Dark Cult. He unleashed a full-strength attack, condensing the multicolored light and ice elemental power into a powerful beam that shot towards the leader. The leader waved his staff to block, but was still knocked back a few steps by the powerful force.
However, the Dark Order and the Holy Light Church were far too powerful, and Lin Yu and the others gradually fell into a difficult battle. Lin Yu's physical strength and supernatural powers were greatly depleted, and he was hit by the enemy's spells in many places, and blood stained his clothes. He could feel that his movements were getting slower and slower, and his reactions were not as agile as they were at the beginning.
"Are we really going to lose here?" Lin Yu felt a surge of despair in his heart, but he quickly cheered up, "No, I can't give up. I have to protect everyone and uncover the secrets of this far north!"
At this moment, the leader of the Dark Cult and the youth of the Holy Light Cult launched their strongest attacks at the same time. A black flame column and a sacred light column blasted towards Lin Yu and others. Lin Yu's face changed drastically. He knew that the power of these two attacks was enough to turn them into ashes in an instant.
"Lin Yu, use the 'Time Stagnation Orb' quickly!" Xing Lan shouted in his mind.
Lin Yu's mind moved, and he quickly took out the "Time Stagnation Orb" and activated its power. In an instant, time around him stopped, the black flame column and the sacred light column stopped in mid-air, and the enemy's movements were also frozen.
Lin Yu seized these precious three seconds and used his strongest supernatural skill. The colorful light and the power of ice elements gathered into a huge energy ball and blasted towards the enemy's attack.
Three seconds passed, and time resumed its flow. The energy ball collided with the pillars of black flame and holy light, erupting with a deafening roar. The powerful energy wave sent everyone flying. The roof of the ice palace began to crumble, sending huge chunks of ice plummeting.
"Hide quickly!" Lin Yu shouted. Regardless of his own injuries, he rushed towards Su Yao and held her in his arms.
With the collapse of the Ice Palace, all three factions fell into chaos...
