Lin Yu and the others sped along the path of light that carried the aura of Libra, the forest scenery passing by them at a rapid speed. Lin Yu's heart was filled with both anticipation and a touch of nervousness. He was looking forward to finding the Key of Libra soon and unlocking the powerful power of Libra; he was nervous about the unknown dangers that lay ahead. "Xinglan, with your current detection capabilities, can you learn more about that light, such as whether it was actually emitted by the Key of Libra?" Lin Yu asked Xinglan anxiously in his heart.
Xing Lan's voice was filled with thought: "Lin Yu, judging from the current energy fluctuations, this light is very consistent with the energy of Libra, and it is very likely related to the Key of Libra. But whether it is emitted by the Key of Libra or not, we need to get closer to confirm. Moreover, I can feel that there seems to be other hidden forces stirring in the surrounding environment. We must always remain vigilant."
Lin Yu relayed Xing Lan's words to everyone. Su Yao's expression changed slightly, and she subconsciously grasped the energy core of her defensive shield. The previous battle had made her well aware of the dangers within the ruins, and now hearing that there was a hidden power, she couldn't help but feel a little worried. "Everyone has heard it, so be careful. I will do my best to protect everyone." Su Yao's voice was firm, but there was also a hint of fatigue in it. She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that this time they could successfully find the Key to Libra and that there would be no more accidents.
Xiao Yi seemed extremely excited. His eyes were fixed on the light, and he gripped the weapon tighter. "Haha, no matter what's ahead, it can't stop us from finding the Key of Libra! Once I activate the power of Libra, maybe I can even compete with Lin Yu's Cancer power!" Xiao Yi's voice was full of fighting spirit. He couldn't wait to meet the new challenge and show his strength.
Lu Ming pushed up his glasses, his eyes scanning the surroundings, trying to detect any hidden forces. Anxiety filled his heart. As the team's brain trust, he understood that the closer they got to their goal, the greater the danger. "Everyone, pay attention to every blade of grass and tree around you. Any abnormality could be a sign of danger. We can't be as careless as before," Lu Ming said in a deep voice, his eyes revealing caution and focus.
Lingxi followed the group, her mind torn. On the one hand, she worried about everyone's safety; on the other, she longed to be of real help, rather than just being protected. "I must find a chance to do something for everyone, even if it's just a little bit," Lingxi decided silently. She began to observe her surroundings more carefully, hoping to find some useful clues.
As they approached the light, the surroundings grew increasingly bizarre. The once towering trees gradually vanished, replaced by a shimmering forest of stone. The stones within the forest took on various shapes, some resembling giant mushrooms, others like twisted monsters. Under the faint light, they appeared eerie and strange.
"How did this place become like this?" Xiao Yi frowned and said in a low voice.
Lin Yu's eyes were full of vigilance, and he said slowly: "The atmosphere here is very wrong, everyone should be careful."
At this moment, Xing Lan's voice rang in Lin Yu's mind: "Lin Yu, I found a powerful energy fluctuation in the stone forest, approaching us. Judging from the energy characteristics, it seems to be some kind of guardian beast."
Lin Yu's heart tightened, and he immediately shouted loudly: "Everyone, pay attention, there is a guardian beast approaching, prepare for battle!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a massive figure slowly emerged from the stone forest. This guardian beast was enormous, as tall as a three-story building, and covered in hard, deep blue scales that shimmered with a cold sheen. Its head resembled that of a lion, but it had a pair of enormous bat wings. The gentle flapping of its wings stirred up a strong wind.
"What kind of monster is this?" Xiao Yi exclaimed, the weapon in his hand trembling slightly.
Lu Ming quickly analyzed the guardian beast's weaknesses. He pushed his glasses and said, "Everyone, be careful. The wings and abdomen of this guardian beast may be its weaknesses. We can try to attack these parts."
Lin Yu nodded. He concentrated his mind, cast the "Five-Colored Phantom Spirit Technique", and integrated the power of Cancer. At this time, the star that had just lit up in his body shone brighter, giving him even more powerful strength. A beam of energy, formed by the fusion of five-colored light and Cancer's protective power, shot towards the guardian beast.
The guardian beast seemed to sense the danger. It spread its huge wings and a strong wind blew away Lin Yu's energy beam. Then, it roared and spewed a blue flame from its mouth, attacking everyone.
Su Yao quickly held up the defensive shield. The flames hit the shield, making a "sizzling" sound. The shield began to crack under the impact of the flames. Su Yao's face turned pale. She gritted her teeth and increased the output of her spiritual power. "Hold on, don't let the flames break through the shield!" Su Yao kept cheering herself up in her heart.
Xiao Yi brandished his weapon and rushed forward while the guardian beast was spitting fire, trying to attack its wings. However, the guardian beast reacted very quickly, flapping its wings and knocking Xiao Yi away.
"Xiao Yi!" Lin Yu exclaimed, his heart filled with worry. He immediately rushed towards Xiao Yi and used the power of Cancer to heal his wounds.
At that moment, Lingxi suddenly noticed a stone in the stone forest flashing with a strange light. She had a sudden thought, thinking this might be the key. "Everyone, there seems to be something wrong with that stone!" Lingxi shouted.
Lu Ming looked in the direction Lingxi pointed, a glint in his eyes. "Lin Yu, let's attack that stone first. Maybe there's some connection between this guardian beast and the stone!"
