Start flat, cut off the wife of the five-star empress

Lu Yuan smiled and nodded, with a humble expression, "Thank you two officials for the compliment."

"If you still need anything, you can come to me at any time."

Customers bought the elixirs made by Lu Yuan one after another, making Leihuo Dan Pavilion's business prosperous. Lu Yuan felt that his schedule was very tight. In addition to running the Thunder Fire Pill Pavilion and making pills, he was more focused on practicing and improving his combat skills.

Every day's time is fully utilized, constantly exploring the secrets of immortal magic and honing one's own strength.

One day, during a retreat, Lu Yuan suddenly felt a powerful force exploding deep in his soul.

He inherited the true inheritance of Taishang Taoist Ancestor, and the immortal skills he mastered reached unprecedented heights.

He knew that this was a qualitative leap in his own strength.

While overjoyed, Lu Yuan received a piece of news - the "Shadow Swordsman" might be about to appear in a dense forest somewhere in the Phantom Mountains.

This is a great opportunity!

Lu Yuan immediately summoned Su Liyan, Modi, An Luofeng and other partners and started preparing to set off.

When everyone was preparing to leave with great expectations, Zi Cuiling, the patriarch of the Ziyun family, came to see Lu Yuan.

She said solemnly: "Lu Yuan, I just received news that the leader of the Blood Moon Sect, Xue Ying, led a group of demons to march towards the Phantom Mountains. They may pose a threat to your actions."

Lu Yuan frowned after hearing this. He had already heard about Xueying's strength, and he was definitely a formidable enemy.

But now was the best opportunity to capture the "Shadow Swordsman". After hesitating for a moment, he decided to continue to the Phantom Mountains.

"Clan Leader Zi Cuiling, I understand your concerns, but we cannot miss this opportunity."

"We will be careful to deal with the threat from the Blood Moon Sect." Lu Yuan replied solemnly.

Zi Cuiling nodded to express her understanding and handed a magic weapon to Lu Yuan, "This is an ancient magic weapon in the family, the 'Purple Cloud Liuyun Bead'. It can provide you with blessing power."

"Hope this helps."

Lu Yuan took the magic weapon and said gratefully: "Thank you, patriarch, for giving me this treasure!"

"It will be taken care of."

With the blessings and expectations of the Ziyun family, Lu Yuan and his friends embarked on a journey to the Phantom Mountains. Lu Yuan looked at Mody and his companions standing in front of him, and their trusting and firm eyes filled his heart with strength.

He took a deep breath and said in a firm tone: "Our target is right in front of us, the 'Shadow Swordsman' is about to appear."

"This is the opportunity we've been looking for to take advantage of him."

"I know the threat from the Blood Moon Sect, but if we miss this opportunity, they will become increasingly difficult to deal with."

Su Liyan said softly: "Lu Yuan, I believe in your decision."

"Let's go to the Phantom Mountains together."

An Luofeng smiled faintly, "Lu Yuan never misses what he believes in."

Mody nodded: "We will always be with you."

Lu Yuan felt extremely warm and moved.

He knew that an unbreakable trust and rapport had been established between the team.

With almost no time to stay, Lu Yuan led his friends to leave the Thunder Fire Pill Pavilion and head towards the Phantom Mountains.

The Phantom Mountains is a dangerous and mysterious place, shrouded in darkness all year round.

Surrounded by dense forests, the team constantly encountered challenges from other mercenary teams and wild monsters as they shuttled between the dense woods.

Every confrontation is a test of teamwork and individual strength.

Lu Yuan quickly used the "Five Elements Dunjia". He relied on his intelligence to dodge the opponent's attack in an instant, and then used the powerful power of the "Tiangang Thunder and Fire Sword" to subdue the enemy.

Su Liyan, who possesses the ice magic, followed closely behind Lu Yuan, attacking the enemy with an ice crystal whip, and using the "cold jade ice flakes" on her body to increase her strength.

Mody transformed into a huge dragon, frightening other mercenary teams and wild monsters with the majesty of the dragon. Everyone cooperated tacitly and moved forward smoothly.

Gradually, they are getting closer and closer to the mysterious and powerful "Shadow Swordsman". With the joy of victory and expectations for the Shadow Swordsman, Lu Yuan led his companions through the Phantom Mountains and finally arrived at the "Thunder Fire Pill Pavilion" in Tianfeng City.

This attic towers into the clouds and exudes a strong fairy spirit.

Entering the pavilion, Lu Yuan couldn't help but clenched his fists.

In the battle just now, he felt that his immortal magic strength had further improved, and he became more familiar with and mastered the power of the Tiangang Thunder Fire Sword.

This gave him confidence to fight against the leader of the Blood Moon Sect.

However, there was a vague chill coming from behind.

Lu Yuan looked around alertly, and suddenly felt that someone was watching him.

He stopped and stared at a dark corner with his eyes.

In an instant, a Nirvana warrior emerged from the shadows.

This warrior has a slender and cold figure, holding a long black sword, which reflects the cold light in the sun.

The battle begins immediately.

Lu Yuan launched a series of attacks, but the opponent actually freed up a hand and skillfully blocked his attack.

This surprised Lu Yuan secretly. The Nirvana warrior in front of him seemed to have extraordinary abilities.

The two began to fight, swords clashed, and magic and martial arts came one after another.

In the fierce battle, Lu Yuan used all his strength to severely injure his opponent.

But when he was about to give the fatal blow, he noticed that there were two different souls coexisting in the opponent's body.

Shock and curiosity filled Lu Yuan's heart.

He knew it was an extremely rare and mysterious identity.

But at this time, he didn't have time to delve deeper. He was still not sure whether this was the Shadow Swordsman.

After the battle, Lu Yuan returned to the store with pain.

He sat back on the bed, slowly took out the "Qiankun Pill" he had refined, and drank it.

This elixir exuded extremely pure spiritual energy and circulated in Lu Yuan's body.

Closing his eyes, Lu Yuan began to practice to recover from his injuries.

Faint fluctuations gradually occurred in his body, and the power of the Qiankun Pill began to take effect, gently repairing his injuries.

As time passed, Lu Yuan entered a deep state of cultivation.

The spiritual energy in his body flows throughout his body, stretching every inch of his meridians and muscles.

A sense of comfort enveloped his heart, allowing him to feel the return and enhancement of the power of the immortal magic. Dongting Lake is as horizontal as a silver mirror, and the water ripples when the breeze blows.

Tianfeng City, located by the lake, is bustling with activity due to the opening of the "Thunder Fire Dan Pavilion".

This fairy-like attic exudes rich spiritual energy, attracting the attention and expectations of many practitioners.

Lu Yuan sat quietly at a fairy-like table in the pavilion, quietly observing the beautiful scenery of the lake outside the window.

Having just experienced a battle, he felt that he had reached a higher level.

The victory filled him with confidence and gave him greater expectations for the Shadow Swordsman. (End of chapter)
