Rise of the Otherworld.

After a series of twists and turns, they finally escaped the crisis. They continued forward cautiously, each step filled with caution. The stone pavement beneath their feet seemed to exude a mysterious aura, and the surrounding walls flickered with faint lights.

A spacious hall appeared before them, with several mysterious statues standing in the center. These statues were lifelike, as if they could come alive at any moment. Tall and majestic, they exuded an ancient and mysterious aura that made one shudder.

"Everyone be careful, these statues may be strange." Lin Yu whispered, his voice echoing in the empty hall, and it was particularly clear. His eyes were fixed on the statues, and he gripped the sword in his hand tighter.

The crowd slowly approached the statues and saw that the statues had different expressions. Some were majestic, with bright eyes, as if examining everything in the world; some were kind, with the corners of their mouths slightly raised, with a warm breath; some were full of ferocity, with fangs exposed, which made people terrified.

Suddenly, a chilling wind blew, bringing a biting chill. The statue's eyes suddenly flickered with an eerie light, like a ghost's, terrifying.

"No, retreat quickly!" Xiaoyaozi shouted loudly, his voice full of anxiety and tension.

But it was too late. The statues began to move, their movements stiff yet swift, attacking everyone. A massive statue swung its immensely heavy stone club, smashing down on a disciple with a whirring sound.

"Get out of the way!" Lin Yu flew forward and pushed the disciple away. His movements were swift and decisive, and he did not hesitate to put himself in danger. However, he himself was hit by the residual force of the stone club. The powerful impact made him fall to the ground and roll several meters away.

"Master!" the disciples exclaimed, their eyes filled with worry and anger.

The other disciples also fought against the statue, but the statue was too powerful, and each attack carried a heavy force that was difficult to resist. Gradually, everyone fell into a dilemma, their physical strength was constantly depleting, while the statue seemed to show no signs of fatigue.

"This isn't going to work. We have to find the statue's weakness!" Xiaoyaozi shouted as he dealt with the attack. His forehead was covered in sweat, and his breathing became a little disordered.

Just as everyone was struggling to hold on, Lin Yu got up from the ground, his eyes firm and sharp. In the chaos, he found a rune on the back of the statue. The rune flickered with a faint light, echoing the light in the statue's eyes.

"Maybe this is the key!" Lin Yu gritted his teeth, ignored the pain in his body, and rushed towards the statue. His figure was like lightning, weaving through the statue's attacks.

A disciple saw Lin Yu's actions and shouted, "Master, be careful!"

Lin Yu did not respond, his entire attention focused on the rune. As he approached the statue, the statue's attacks became more intense, but with his agility and determination, he finally got behind the statue.

He raised his sword and stabbed at the rune. The moment the sword touched the rune, a powerful force rebounded and knocked Lin Yu away.

"Master!" Everyone's heart was in their throat.

Lin Yu fell heavily to the ground and spit out a mouthful of blood, but his eyes remained firm. He stood up again, ready to try again.

Can he successfully crack the secret of the statue and lead everyone out of danger?
