Lin Na's bloodshot eyes were fixed on Li Jin, and the eerie smile on her lips widened, as if she wanted to devour him whole. "What? Surprised? Keyboard warrior."

Fear, like a cold snake, coiled around Li Jin's heart. He instinctively took a step back, only to bump into Sophie behind him.

"Calm down, Li Jin!" Sophie whispered, secretly applying pressure to his hand as if to give him strength.

Li Jin took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. "Lin Na, what exactly do you want?"

"What do I want to do?" Linna laughed shrilly, the sound echoing across the empty plain, sending chills down everyone's spine. "I want... for you all to die here!"

Before she finished speaking, a ball of black flame suddenly appeared in Lin Na's hand, within which a distorted ghost face could be faintly seen, emitting a shrill wail.

"Watch out!" Old Wang shouted, shielding Li Jin and Xiao Mei behind him.

Black flames roared toward them, their scorching heat threatening to ignite the air itself.

Old Wang waved his staff, and a golden light barrier appeared in front of them, blocking the attack of the black flames.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the golden light screen trembled violently, as if it would shatter at any moment.

"Old Wang, hang in there!" Li Jin shouted, taking out a dagger that gleamed coldly from his system space.

This is the first weapon he obtained in this other world. Although it looks unremarkable, it possesses great power.

Li Jin gripped the dagger tightly, his eyes fixed firmly on Lin Na. "I won't let you succeed!"

"Overestimating yourself!" Lin Na sneered and unleashed another ball of black flame.

Li Jin dodged the attack, then charged at Lin Na, his dagger aimed straight for her heart.

A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Na's eyes; she hadn't expected Li Jin to be so fast.

She quickly retreated, dodging Li Jin's attack.

"You've got some skill, but..." A long black whip appeared in Linna's hand, "That's enough!"

The black whip lashed out at Li Jin with a sharp whooshing sound.

Li Jin quickly raised his dagger to block, but felt a tremendous force coming from it, which made his hand go numb.

"boom!"

Li Jin was whipped away and crashed heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Li Jin!" Sophie exclaimed and rushed to Li Jin's side.

"I'm fine..." Li Jin struggled to stand up, but found himself powerless.

"Don't be reckless!" Sophie said anxiously, supporting Li Jin. "We're no match for her, run!"

"Trying to escape? Not so easy!" Linna's voice seemed to come from the depths of hell. "Today, none of you will leave here alive!"

Just then, a gentle voice rang in Li Jin's ear: "Li Jin, don't give up! You still have us!"

It's Amy's voice!

Li Jin suddenly awoke to find himself still inside the temple, but bound by black energy.

He saw Amy, Li Yi, Zhang Hao, and Tom standing around him, their bodies radiating a faint golden light that resisted the erosion of the black energy.

"You guys..." Li Jin could hardly believe his eyes.

“We’ve come to rescue you!” Amy said with a smile, her eyes filled with determination.

"Li Jin, you're really something, you actually managed to go to another world!" Zhang Hao said with a laugh. "But don't worry, with me here, you won't die!"

"Haozi, Tom, what's wrong with you..." Li Jin was filled with doubt.

"It's a long story," Zhang Hao patted Li Jin on the shoulder, "but in short, our first priority is to get you out of here!"

Tom nodded, a complex electronic device appearing in his hand. "I've found the weakness of the dark energy; I can crack it in just a few minutes!"

"Good!" A flame of hope ignited in Li Jin's eyes.

Just then, the temple began to shake violently, and the surrounding black energy became even more turbulent.

"Oh no, Linna has discovered us!" Old Wang's voice came from afar. "She's intensifying the power of the dark energy!"

"Speed ​​up!" Li Jin shouted anxiously.

Tom's fingers flew across the electronic device, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

"Not even close..."

Suddenly, the temple's dome began to collapse, and huge stones fell from the sky.

"careful!"

Zhang Hao shoved Li Jin aside, and a huge rock crashed down on him.

"Haozi!" Li Jin cried out in alarm.

"I...I'm fine..." Zhang Hao's voice was weak, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Tom, are you done yet?" Li Jin asked anxiously.

"Done!" Tom pressed the last button, and the electronic device emitted a blinding light.

The black mist dissipated rapidly, as if scorched by a raging fire.

The restraints on Li Jin's body also disappeared.

He rushed to Zhang Hao's side and helped him up. "Haozi, are you alright?"

Zhang Hao smiled weakly. "I won't die... it just hurts a little..."

Suddenly, a dark shadow fell from the sky and slammed into Li Jin.

"careful!"

Amy suddenly lunged at Li Jin, shielding him from the attack.

"Amy!"
