Rise of the Otherworld.

Facing the approaching herd of ferocious beasts, Lin Yu's heartbeat accelerated rapidly, the drum-like heartbeat seeming to tell of his inner tension and determination. But his eyes became more and more determined, like the brightest stars in the night sky, shining brightly in the darkness of the storm. "Everyone, maintain formation, don't panic!" He shouted loudly, his voice still clearly audible in the storm, with unquestionable majesty and composure.

The disciples surrounded Lin Yu tightly, their weapons trembling slightly. The trembling was not out of fear, but the body's instinctive reaction under extreme fatigue and tension. However, their eyes still flashed with determination, and they vowed to advance and retreat with Lin Yu.

The leading beast suddenly pounced, its huge body carrying a strong wind, roaring towards them. Lin Yu dodged to the side, as agile as a cheetah, and swung the long sword in his hand. The blade drew a silver arc in the air, leaving a shallow wound on the beast's body. Although the wound was not fatal, it successfully enraged the beast, causing it to attack even more frantically.

"Concentrate your attacks and defeat them one by one!" Lin Yu commanded everyone while resisting the beasts' attacks. His voice was steady and powerful, like a magic needle on the battlefield, which gradually calmed everyone's panic.

The disciples unleashed their martial arts and spells one after another. For a moment, a dazzling radiance shone, a dazzling radiance intertwined with the wind and rain. Some disciples wielded spears like dragons emerging from the sea, thrusting fiercely at the beasts. Others cast fire spells, blazing flames burning in the rain, illuminating the dark battlefield.

A smaller beast took advantage of the chaos and charged at a disciple. The disciple, momentarily panicked, forgot to dodge. At that crucial moment, Xiaoyaozi leaped out, lightning fast. He shoved the disciple away, but was unable to dodge and was scratched on the arm by the beast. Blood immediately gushed out, mixing with the rainwater and staining his sleeves red.

"Xiaoyaozi!" Lin Yu was extremely anxious, his eyes full of concern and worry.

Xiaoyaozi gritted his teeth and endured the pain, "Master, I'm fine, keep fighting!" Although his voice was weak, it was full of determination and indomitable spirit.

Lin Yu was enraged, the rage in his heart burning like a raging fire. His swordsmanship became increasingly fierce, each strike carrying a determination to kill, each strike deadly. His figure shuttled through the beasts like an unstoppable whirlwind, and wherever he went, the beasts retreated in pain.

As the battle dragged on, everyone's strength gradually wore thin, their movements becoming sluggish. Each attack and defense demanded immense effort, their breathing becoming heavy and rapid, their bodies already drenched in sweat and rain. Yet the beasts remained fierce, showing no sign of retreat. Their roars echoed through the valley, like a death sentence.

"This is not a solution!" Lin Yu thought to himself. His brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to deal with it.

He suddenly realized that the leader of the herd seemed to be directing the actions of the other beasts. The leader stood in the back, his eyes sharp, and every roar made the herd's attack more orderly.

"Concentrate your strength and defeat the leader first!" Lin Yu shouted. His voice penetrated the wind and rain and the roar of the beasts, reaching the hearts of everyone.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their attacks towards the leader of the herd. Feeling threatened, the leader roared and intensified his attack. Its body grew larger, its strength even greater, and each attack carried the momentum of destruction.

Lin Yu seized the opportunity and leaped towards the leader, his body drawing a graceful arc in the air. The long sword in his hand pierced the leader's eyes. The leader was unable to dodge and was stabbed by Lin Yu. He roared in pain. The roar was deafening, making the whole valley tremble.

Seeing their leader injured, the other beasts lost their composure. Their attacks became chaotic and disorganized, no longer as coordinated and orderly as before.

Can Lin Yu and others seize this opportunity, defeat the beasts in one fell swoop and escape from the predicament?
