As they pressed on, the already dim light grew even fainter, and the crystals on the cave walls flickered with a faint glow, as though they might extinguish at any moment. The air grew increasingly damp and chilly, every breath carrying a trace of frost. The vapor from their exhales instantly turned into white mist, lingering around them.
Lin Xiu's Astral Guardian Holy Armor emitted a soft glow in the darkness, illuminating a small path ahead. His gaze was focused and resolute, and Stellar Power surged within him, keeping him highly alert to the surrounding dangers. With every step he took, he listened intently to the movements inside the cave, and the Astral Dawn Sword in his hand trembled slightly, seemingly anticipating the upcoming challenge.

Her eyes were like cold stars in the night sky, missing not a single corner. The short blade in her hand spun nimbly at her fingertips, casting a faint, icy gleam. Her footsteps were light and agile, like a crouching black panther ready to strike at any moment. Her breathing was steady and even, yet tinged with a hint of tension, for she knew that deep within this unknown cave, danger could strike at any time.
