**Chapter 2: Traveling through a fantasy world**
Lin Yu and Su Yao followed the clues on the ancient map, crossed the vast wilderness, and finally came to a deep forest. In the forest, ancient trees stood tall, the sun shone through the gaps between the leaves, casting mottled light and shadows, and the air was filled with the smell of soil and moisture.
They carefully went deeper into the forest, alert to possible dangers around them. Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and Lin Yu felt a cold breath coming from behind. He turned around suddenly, but saw nothing.
"What's wrong?" Su Yao asked with concern.
Lin Yu shook his head, but felt a little uneasy. He clenched the magic compass in his hand, and the compass needle trembled slightly, as if foreshadowing something.
"We'd better be careful." Su Yao reminded, "The magical creatures here are not friendly."
Just as he finished speaking, a gigantic frost unicorn walked out of the dense forest, its silver mane gleaming in the sun, its eyes filled with coldness and hostility.
"Be careful!" Su Yao exclaimed, and quickly released a frost magic to repel the frost unicorn.
Lin Yu followed closely behind, releasing fire magic and engaging in a fierce battle with the Frost Unicorn.
The flames and frost collided in the air, making a harsh sound. The frost unicorn spewed out powerful frost flames, and Lin Yu used fire magic to repel it.
The battle lasted for a long time, and both sides consumed a lot of energy. In the end, Lin Yu and Su Yao relied on their tacit cooperation and powerful magic power to knock down the Frost Unicorn.
"Huh, it was a tough battle." Lin Yu said, panting.
"Yeah, luckily we have each other." Su Yao smiled and held Lin Yu's hand.
They continued on through the forest and came to an open area. In the center of the open area stood an ancient stone tower that emitted a faint fluorescent light.
"This should be the place we are looking for." Su Yao said, pointing at the stone tower.
Lin Yu and Su Yao walked to the stone tower and found that the tower door was closed. They tried to push it, but found that the tower door did not move at all.
"It seems that magic is needed to open it." Lin Yu said.
Su Yao took out an ancient magic key from the space ring. This key exuded a mysterious atmosphere.
"This key should be the key to open the tower door." Su Yao said.
Su Yao inserted the magic key into the tower door, and the tower door slowly opened, revealing a passage leading underground.
"Let's go." Lin Yu said.
They walked down the passage, which became narrower and narrower until they came to a huge underground space.
The underground space is full of ancient magic runes, which exude a faint magical atmosphere. In the center is a huge stone platform with a strange device on it.
"Is this what we are looking for?" Su Yao asked curiously.
"It should be." Lin Yu said.
They walked to the stone platform and found some strange buttons and switches on the device.
"How do we operate this device?" Su Yao asked.
"I don't know." Lin Yu shook his head, "But we can try."
Lin Yu and Su Yao carefully observed the device and began to try to operate it. They kept trying until they finally found the right buttons and switches.
The device made a roaring sound, then slowly rose up, revealing a huge crack in space and time.
"Is this a space-time rift?" Su Yao asked in surprise.
"Yes." Lin Yu said, "We can go back to the past through the cracks in time and space."
They walked to the space-time rift, took a deep breath, and then stepped in.
The space-time rift was full of darkness and unknown, and Lin Yu and Su Yao felt nauseous and dizzy.
When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves back in the fantasy world.
"We succeeded!" Su Yao cheered.
"Yes, we found a way to go back to the past." Lin Yu said.
They hugged each other excitedly, filled with emotion.
However, they did not know that this was just the beginning of their adventure, and greater challenges and crises were waiting for them.
