Su Yu looked up at the stone pillars hanging from the ceiling, and an idea suddenly occurred to her: "I have an idea. We can set up some traps to delay the enemy."

Lin Feng nodded in agreement: "Good idea! But we have to act quickly, otherwise they will catch up soon."

Several people quickly divided the work and used the environment in the corridor to set up various simple mechanisms and traps. Liu Yunhe was responsible for laying tripwires and false paths, while Li Feng placed a broken beam across the middle of the road and cleverly connected it with a rope. When the enemy stepped on these traps, they would be temporarily blocked or lost. In addition, Xueqi also used the talisman in her hand to draw a secret magic circle on the ground. When someone stepped on it, it would instantly start, releasing a strong light that was dazzling and accompanied by a dizzying effect.

After everything was arranged, the four of them immediately set out again. "Hurry, we have to speed up!" Li Feng reminded everyone loudly. At this moment, there were chaotic footsteps and angry roars from behind again: "Damn boys, how dare you play tricks! Chase them, don't let them run away!"

Facing the threat, Li Feng suddenly pulled out an ancient jade pendant from his pocket, "Now, it's time to show our trump card." He gently pinched the jade pendant, and suddenly, a dazzling light burst out from inside, like the brightest star in the night sky. Then, a strange power spread out, covering the four of them.

Everyone felt that their bodies became much lighter in an instant, and their speed increased significantly. They rushed a hundred meters away in almost the blink of an eye. "Wow, this is really powerful!" Su Yu exclaimed in surprise.

At the same time, the group of pursuers who were approaching aggressively were illuminated by the sudden strong light. They closed their eyes involuntarily and their steps became hesitant. When the light gradually faded, the target had disappeared...

Just as everyone was speeding along the planned route, suddenly, two completely different roads appeared in front of them. "Left or right?" Liu Yunhe stopped and asked. Obviously, any choice at this time could determine life or death.

"According to the instructions on the map, if we go to the right we should be able to bypass the main passage and enter a more secluded area." Lin Feng said as he took out the topographic map he had obtained earlier, looked at it, and nodded affirmatively.

However, before long, a new problem was presented before them - a large open area stretched out in front of them, with almost no cover. At the exit on the other side, several enemies stood there, holding strong bows and crossbows, ready to attack...

"What should we do? If we don't hurry up, we will be attacked from both sides!" Xueqi said anxiously.

"Leave it to me." Li Feng stepped forward and patted his chest confidently, "Since we can't just rush over, we can only create opportunities. Follow me, try to lower your center of gravity and follow me closely."

As he spoke, he took the lead and bent forward. The other three followed suit. When they approached the edge of the open area, he suddenly accelerated and sprinted, while jumping high in the air and rolling several times before landing heavily. Although this series of actions looked extremely exaggerated and thrilling, it was precisely by taking advantage of the blind spot in the vision within a few seconds to cleverly avoid the attack range of the arrows.

Seeing this, Lin Feng and others who were following closely behind immediately followed the same method and leaped over one after another, successfully crossing the dangerous area.

Finally, after countless life-and-death struggles, everyone managed to temporarily get rid of the enemies behind them and found a relatively safe place to rest.

"That's great...we really did it." Su Yu patted his chest excitedly and breathed in the fresh air, as if even the air was sweet and wonderful with the scent of freedom.

But just when everyone was relaxing a little, a slight commotion was heard not far away... It seemed to indicate that the crisis had not been completely resolved...

"Did you hear that? Those guys don't seem to have given up yet." Liu Yunhe said with a frown.

“We can’t let them get the Nine-Colored Lotus at any cost.” Xueqi looked at everyone firmly.

Lin Feng stood up and said, "We've rested enough. No matter what happens next, we must not act separately. As long as we unite as one, there will be no difficulties that we cannot overcome." As he said that, he looked at Li Feng, his eyes full of trust and expectation.

Li Feng nodded and showed a confident smile: "Well, believe in yourself and believe in each other. As long as you are still alive, there is hope!"

Just when everyone decided to set off again, suddenly, the ground began to shake slightly. The vibration came from far away and became stronger and stronger, as if a huge army was approaching them. Lin Feng stopped with a serious expression and looked around vigilantly.

"Do you feel it?" he whispered, "It seems like something is coming."

Several people suddenly became nervous, holding their weapons tightly, ready to respond to any emergency. Su Yu's face turned pale, and she asked in a trembling voice: "What is it? Could it be..."

Before she could finish, a series of deep roars came from not far ahead. Then, a group of huge black shadows rushed over from a distance. They were dozens of huge and ferocious monsters - fang wolf beasts!
Xueqi bit her lower lip, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes: "It's the terrifying fang wolf pack! We have to leave here quickly!"

Li Feng reacted immediately and shouted, "Everyone follow me now, hurry up!" He took the lead and led everyone to a hidden exit on the left. However, the fanged wolf beasts seemed to have sensed the scent of their prey and sped up to catch up.

While they were running away, a fang wolf took advantage of the opportunity to enter, opened its bloody mouth and pounced on Xueqi who was walking at the end of the team. At the critical moment, Li Feng turned around and rushed forward to block Xueqi. With a flash of cold light, his long sword accurately pierced the heart of the evil wolf. However, due to excessive force and the opponent's strong impact, he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

"Li Feng!" Xueqi exclaimed when she saw this. At this time, the other three companions quickly turned back and tried to pull the injured person up.

"Don't worry about me, run away!" Li Feng stood up and continued to run forward despite the severe pain, but his movements were obviously much slower. "If we don't speed up, we will really be finished!"

Liu Yunhe held his arm to support him: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and act together! None of us will abandon any of our companions!" So the four of them supported each other and continued to move forward. Fortunately, they were lucky this time. Not far ahead, they found another secret passage entrance hidden in the deep forest. Just as they were about to step into this way of life, they heard more violent vibrations and wolf howls behind them - it seemed that these ferocious fanged wolf beasts were still unwilling to give up.

"Remember to seal the entrance immediately after entering!" Li Feng said while coughing, "Otherwise, even if you get rid of the enemy temporarily, it may cause unnecessary trouble."

Lin Feng nodded, and quickly used his spatial skills to set up a transparent protective barrier outside the cave entrance. Then everyone stepped into the unknown underground tunnel together. In the darkness, only the rapid and powerful heartbeats and breathing sounds of each other were left.

After walking for about ten minutes, a faint light finally appeared in front of them, indicating that they were approaching the end of this secret route. "Is this the place?" Su Yu looked up and forward, with a long-lost smile on her face. "It seems to be a forest outside... We should be safe, right?"

"I hope so." Xueqi agreed softly. But the next second she frowned and looked at Li Feng, who was still pale and panting. "How is your injury? Can you still hold on?"

"It's okay." Li Feng waved his hands while enduring the pain, trying to make himself look not that bad. "We'll talk about it after we get out. As long as I'm alive, that's fine."

Lin Feng walked up to him, patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Hold on, you will find a place to get treatment soon."

However, at this moment, a sudden roar broke the brief tranquil atmosphere - it seemed that something was moving quickly from above their heads, accompanied by a series of low and terrifying roars...

Xueqi's expression suddenly changed: "What's going on? Is there a new danger?!"

"I don't know... but I can be sure that it's not a good thing." Li Feng reluctantly raised his eyes and looked up at the sky. "Is everyone ready for battle? We must protect the Nine-Colored Lotus at all costs."

As everyone was watching the rapidly approaching unknown object overhead, a strong and evil aura swept over. As the roar got closer, a huge black shadow flew over the dense forest, like a huge hawk.

"Be careful! They are monks! There are quite a lot of them!" Li Feng's voice trembled a little. He clenched the sword in his hand, his eyes firm but could not hide his fatigue.

Almost at the same time, dozens of monks wearing various armors and holding various magical instruments slowly descended from the sky. Their eyes were all focused on the protagonists and their group, especially the nine-colored lotus emitting a light blue light that Lin Feng was holding tightly in his arms.

A young-looking but awe-inspiring woman stood at the front of the monks. Her voice was cold and clear: "Hand over the Nine-Colored Lotus, and I may consider sparing your lives." Her eyes were full of greed and an unquestionable sense of command.

Su Yu nervously held Xue Qi's hand and asked softly, "What should we do? These people are so strong."

Liu Yunhe smiled coldly, "Since they are going to force us, we can't just sit there and wait to die. Let's fight!" After saying that, a ball of golden light condensed in his hand, and it was obvious that he had prepared his strongest attack skill.

The leading woman on the opposite side raised her lips slightly and sneered: "You really overestimate your own abilities." After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and waved, and the soldiers behind her quickly surrounded the protagonists in two groups, intending to form an encirclement to completely block any chance of escape.

Seeing this, Lin Feng immediately shouted: "Spread out the actions and try to delay the time to wait for support! Protect the Nine-Colored Lotus!"

The battle broke out instantly. Light and shadows intertwined, energy fluctuated, and the air seemed to be distorted. Facing a powerful enemy, everyone in the protagonist team tried their best to fight - Li Feng relied on his superb swordsmanship to constantly resist the attackers while looking for opportunities to counterattack; Xue Qi used her excellent long-range attack power to provide cover for teammates; Liu Yunhe relied on his strong physical fitness to charge around, trying to disrupt the enemy's position; and Lin Feng carefully guarded the Nine-Colored Lotus while performing various space skills to assist the entire team.

However, as time went on, the other side clearly had an absolute advantage in numbers and strength. Gradually, the four began to show signs of physical and mental exhaustion...

"Everyone, hold on!" Li Feng's words of encouragement were a little hoarse, but still firm. "As long as you can still stand, don't give up hope!"

At this moment, in this life-and-death struggle, everyone showed amazing perseverance and courage. But the reality was cruel. Even if they resisted tenaciously, they could not reverse the situation that was developing in a direction that was not favorable to them...

Just when everyone thought they really couldn't get away this time, a sharp whistle suddenly came from the distance. Everyone looked over and saw a group of foreign warriors wearing silver-white armor and with cold faces rushing towards them at high speed. This army was obviously many times stronger than the enemy chasing them!
The leader was a tall woman with an imposing aura. She stopped on a high ground not far from the battlefield and coldly scanned everything below.

"Hmph, there are outsiders who dare to act without authorization in the area under my jurisdiction? You are asking for the death of others!" Before he finished speaking, countless cold lights flashed, and hundreds of extremely sharp feather arrows shot towards the already exhausted team of monks like a meteor shower.

"Retreat! Quickly!" The little leader who had provoked him earlier ordered his men to retreat quickly in fear, completely ignoring the need to continue confronting Lin Feng and the others.

Seeing the reinforcements arrive in time and quickly suppress the situation, Lin Feng and his companions finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Huh..." Lin Feng patted his chest, took a long breath, and looked at the unexpected savior with gratitude, "Thank you for your help. If you hadn't acted in time, we would have been dead by now."

The strange woman did not answer immediately, but slightly moved aside to reveal another person standing behind her who seemed even more mysterious and arrogant. "No need to thank me, this is the difficulty encountered by the person he wants to see, I am just following orders."

The mysterious man walked out slowly, with a veil on his face that made it difficult to identify his features, but from his cold and bright eyes, it could be seen that he was not a good person. "Hello, Mr. Lin Feng and your companions," he said in a low and magnetic voice, "I think there are many things between us that need to be discussed..." (End of this chapter)
