Siheyuan: The Temptation of the Mountains

After entering the second door, they found themselves in a dense forest.

The surrounding trees are towering into the sky, blocking out the sunlight and making the entire space look eerie and dark.

Lin Ze signaled everyone to stay alert and move forward carefully.

Suddenly, a group of strangely shaped creatures rushed out of the woods. They had sharp fangs and claws and launched a fierce attack on the team.

The team members immediately formed a defensive formation and engaged in a fierce battle with the monster.

During the battle, Lin Ze discovered that these monsters seemed to be controlled by some mysterious force. They were extremely agile and had strong attack power.

Lin Ze decided to find the monster's weakness. He concentrated his energy, used a sword skill, and finally hit the monster's vital point.

The huge, hideous monster fell to the ground after suffering severe damage. Dark green blood continued to flow from the wounds on its body, emitting a foul odor.

Despite this, a mysterious and powerful force still seems to be driving the dying beast, making it desperately try to stand up again.

Faced with such a tenacious enemy, the team members were not afraid. They cooperated closely and decisively launched round after round of fierce attacks while the monster had not yet recovered.

As swords flashed and sabers clashed, the monsters roared in pain, but the team members showed no intention of retreating.

After a thrilling battle, these ferocious monsters were ultimately unable to resist and fell in a pool of blood.

Looking at the corpses scattered all over the ground, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, Lin Ze, who was standing aside, did not look relaxed.

His deep eyes were fixed on the dense forest in front of him, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart - it seemed that there was an even greater danger lurking here.

At this moment, a cold and biting wind suddenly blew, causing the branches to sway and the leaves to rustle.

Lin Ze's heart suddenly tightened, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.

He immediately shouted loudly, reminding other teammates to remain highly vigilant at all times.

Before he finished his words, countless inky black vines emerged from the ground like ghosts.

These strange vines were like nimble poisonous snakes, quickly wrapping around the bodies of the team members at an astonishing speed.

In a blink of an eye, many people were tied up tightly and unable to move.

Lin Ze swung the sword in his hand, trying to cut off these annoying vines. But these vines were as hard as iron, and ordinary swords could only leave shallow marks.

"Use fire!" Lin Ze shouted at the top of his lungs, as if he wanted to pour all his strength into these two words.

At the same time, he used his powerful fire ability without hesitation. The raging flames roared out like a fire dragon and instantly gathered on the sword in his hand.

When other teammates saw this, they did not dare to be negligent and followed Lin Ze's actions.

In an instant, countless rays of fire rose into the sky and intertwined together, like a gorgeous sea of ​​fire, dispelling all the surrounding darkness and making it as bright as day.

The vines burned by the flames made crisp and harsh "crackling" sounds, as if they were groaning in pain.

As the fire spread, the vines that were originally tightly wrapped around the team members began to loosen gradually and finally fell down weakly.

Just when everyone thought the crisis had been resolved and they could take a breather, something unexpected happened.

I saw more vines coming from all directions like a tide. The number and speed were astonishing.

These vines seemed to have spirituality. They were able to cleverly avoid the raging fire and still attacked the team members fiercely.

Faced with such a difficult situation, Lin Ze knew that he could not just wait passively, but had to take the initiative and find a way out.

So, he made a prompt decision and led the team to fight and retreat, fighting a desperate battle with the endless vines while paying attention to the surrounding environment, trying to find a gap to break through.

Hard work pays off. During the difficult retreat, Lin Ze finally made a discovery - there was an open area not far ahead, with no vegetation covering it.

"Everybody run over there!" Lin Ze was quick-witted and quickly pointed to the open space, shouting loudly to guide his teammates.

After receiving the instructions, the team members tried their best to break free from the vines that were still entangled, and then ran non-stop towards the life-saving open space.

Seeing victory in sight, a glimmer of hope arose in everyone's hearts.

But at this moment, something strange happened! The originally calm ground began to shake violently without any warning, like a giant beast that had been sleeping for a long time suddenly waking up.

Immediately afterwards, huge cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, and the entire earth seemed to be crumbling. In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth broke apart, with dust flying everywhere.

The team members fell to the ground in a mess as if they were swept by a strong wind. Their faces were full of fear and their eyes were wide open, staring at the terrifying scene before them.

I saw that the huge crack seemed to hide endless terror and danger.

The boiling magma was looming, like a ferocious beast trying to break free from its restraints and erupt.

The burning breath accompanied by a pungent smell quickly spread and filled the entire space, making it difficult for people to breathe and an unspeakable fear surged in their hearts.

Lin Ze widened his eyes and couldn't help but groan inwardly.

He keenly realized that this was not just an ordinary vine attack, but a sinister and carefully planned trap was hidden behind it.

At this moment, they are already behind bars, facing a desperate situation where they have no way out.

"What should we do, Captain?" A team member looked at Lin Ze with a pale face and despair, and asked in a trembling voice.

Lin Ze took a deep breath, trying his best to calm his heart which was about to jump out of his throat due to extreme panic.

He knew very well that at this critical moment, the only way to find a way to survive was to remain calm and composed.

So he quickly scanned his surroundings, and suddenly, his eyes fixed on a small hill not far away.

"Maybe... we can climb that hill!" He shouted loudly while pointing in the direction of the hill.

Hearing this, the team members looked at each other, and a glimmer of hope flashed in their eyes.

Although their bodies were in unbearable pain from the fall, they gritted their teeth, endured the discomfort, struggled to get up from the ground, and then staggered but unwaveringly ran towards the hill.

However, just as they were getting closer and closer to the hill, something unexpected happened - an extremely strong airflow suddenly roared out from the ground like a wild horse.

The airflow was unstoppable, like an invisible giant hand, fiercely knocking them away.
