It would probably help if you posted your full spell lists and the gear you have at least.

If I understand you correctly, you are under the floor of a cavern full of monsters and you need to travel 500 metres to get out. Is that back to the entrance of the cavern? Is the cavern really more than 500 metres long? That's a really big cavern.

Do you have any way of finding out if there is another space you could tunnel to? Like a cave below this cavern? Seek Air would let you find it.

Failing that and assuming you don't have any way to create enough food and water to keep you alive, you may have to eat acid spiders. Have the mage open a hole barely big enough for one to squeeze in, ambush it and then close the hole again. Or, you know, just kill all the spiders through setting up a perfect ambush position in your hole and closing it off when you need to rest. A stab to the vitals and barbarian hitting it in the face should be enough to seriously mess even one of those things up.
