Let you be a good grandson, you raise a group of banshees?

Lu Yuan took Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao and continued to move forward in the fog of Yunlong Mountain.

There was still a strange atmosphere surrounding them, as if an invisible force was suppressing them.

“This valley is really extraordinary.”

Chu Yao frowned and looked around.

She looked very alert.

"The Black Demon Sect actually set up such a complicated formation. It's obvious that they have some plans for this area."

Ye Ling'er also nodded slightly, with a hint of nervousness on her face.

"We have to speed up. The sooner we find Qingxuzi, the safer our situation will be."

Lu Yuan's voice was low, full of calmness and determination.

He knew that this fog was not just meant to trap them.

The purpose of the Black Demon Sect is far more far-reaching than they imagined.

Lu Yuan clenched the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand and felt the sword tremble slightly, as if responding to the will of its master.

"Just keep going."

He said in a deep voice, taking the lead and stepping forward.

The three of them moved forward, and although the fog was still thick, they never stopped.

"Brother Lu Yuan, do you think Qingxuzi is really in this deep valley?"

Ye Ling'er suddenly asked, with some doubt in her voice.

"We have been walking for so long, but we haven't found even a trace of him."

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, feeling somewhat confused.

"The Black Demon Sect has set up so many traps and ambushes. They obviously know that we are looking for Qingxuzi."

He said, a hint of heaviness in his tone.

"In that case, Qingxuzi is very likely nearby."

Chu Yao thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "That's right. The Black Demon Sect would never spend so much energy here for no reason."

"It seems we are not far from the truth."

Lu Yuan's eyes were determined and his pace quickened.

However, as they continued to move forward, suddenly, the fog ahead became thicker.

It seemed as if something was approaching.

"Everyone, be careful!"

Lu Yuan immediately stopped and looked around vigilantly.

He gripped the Xuanyuan Sword tightly and felt the spiritual energy fluctuations in the air become extremely chaotic.

Just then, a low roar came from the depths of the fog.

Then, the ground began to shake slightly.

"This is……"

Chu Yao's face turned pale instantly.

Lu Yuan frowned, his eyes fixed on the thick fog ahead.

He could already sense that a powerful force was approaching.

"There is a powerful monster!"

Lu Yuan said in a deep voice, and the light on the Xuanyuan Sword gradually became brighter.

"Ready to fight!"

Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao quickly drew their weapons and stood on both sides of Lu Yuan, their eyes filled with tension.

The roar in the fog was getting closer.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a huge black shadow jumped out from the fog and pounced on Lu Yuan and the other two.

"Beware!"

Lu Yuan shouted loudly, and the Xuanyuan Sword was unsheathed in an instant, and the sword energy slashed towards the giant beast like lightning.

"boom!"

The sword energy collided with the beast's sharp claws, and a deafening sound erupted in the air.

The giant beast was pushed back a few steps by the sword energy and let out an angry roar.

"What kind of monster is this?"

Chu Yao's face was filled with shock.

She had never seen such a huge monster. The whole beast was three meters tall, covered with black scales, and its eyes were like blood-red flames, flashing with madness.

"This is the soul-devouring monster raised by the Black Demon Sect!"

Lu Yuan said in a deep voice, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"These monsters feed on souls and are extremely ferocious. Ordinary cultivators simply cannot resist them."

Ye Ling'er's face turned pale and she asked nervously, "What should we do then?"

"We must go all out and not let them devour our spiritual power."

Lu Yuan's eyes were calm. He knew that this kind of monster was extremely dangerous. Once hit by its attack, the spiritual energy in the body would be quickly depleted.

"Ling'er, Chu Yao, you try to hold it back while I look for its weakness."

Lu Yuan made a quick decision, and the Xuanyuan Sword trembled slightly in his hand.

"We try to delay as much as possible."

Chu Yao nodded and immediately raised her sword to block Ye Ling'er.

She knew that Lu Yuan's fighting ability was far superior to theirs, and they could only buy time for him.

"Xuan-yuan Sword, cut!" Lu Yuan shouted suddenly, and the Xuan-yuan Sword instantly burst out with golden light. The sword energy swept out like a hurricane, heading straight for the soul-devouring monster.

The monster let out an angry roar and swung its huge claws, trying to block Lu Yuan's sword energy.

"boom!"

The sword energy collided with the sharp claws, causing a strong shock wave, and the monster's body was shaken back a few steps.

But there were no obvious wounds on its body, and its black scales were as strong as steel.

"Its defenses are too strong."

Lu Yuan frowned, secretly anxious.

The soul-devouring monster's defense was far beyond his imagination, and ordinary attacks could not cause any damage to it at all.

"We have to find a way to hit it where it hurts!"

He quickly assessed the situation and began looking for the monster's weaknesses.

There was a crazy light flashing in the monster's eyes, and it was obviously enraged.

It roared again, and swung its huge claws down suddenly, rushing straight towards Lu Yuan.

"Beware!"

Ye Ling'er shouted loudly, looking nervous.

Lu Yuan quickly dodged sideways and swung the Xuanyuan Sword instantly, with a stream of sword energy heading straight for the monster's eyes.

"boom!"

The sword energy hit the monster's eyes, and the monster let out a painful roar, and its huge body began to tremble violently.

"Its eyes are its weak point!"

A hint of joy flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes, and he quickly locked onto the monster's vital points.

"Ling'er, Chu Yao, attack its eyes!"

He shouted loudly, and swung the Xuanyuan Sword again. The sword energy rushed straight into the monster's eyes like a gust of wind.

Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao quickly cooperated and aimed their weapons at the monster's eyes at the same time.

"boom!"

The monster's eyes were hit again, and it let out a shrill roar. Its huge body swayed as if it would fall down at any time.

"Continue the attack!"

Lu Yuan did not relax at all, and the light on the Xuanyuan Sword became even brighter.

He knew that this monster had extremely strong defenses and he had to defeat it completely in one fell swoop.

However, just as they were about to launch the final attack, the monster suddenly let out a low roar, and an intense black light instantly burst out from its entire body.

"not good!"

Lu Yuan's expression instantly became solemn.

"It's going to blow up!"

He said, swinging the Xuanyuan Sword quickly, trying to block the black energy.

"Go back!"

Lu Yuan shouted loudly and pulled Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao to retreat quickly.

"boom!"

The soul-devouring monster's body exploded in an instant, and black energy swept across the entire valley like a hurricane, distorting the air wherever it passed.

Lu Yuan quickly swung the Xuanyuan Sword, and the sword energy formed a barrier, barely blocking the impact of the black energy.

However, even so, his body was still shaken back repeatedly, and the spiritual power in his body was exhausted in an instant.

"Brother Lu Yuan!"

Ye Ling'er exclaimed, her face full of worry.

Lu Yuan struggled to steady himself, his face pale.

"I am fine."

He said that even though his spiritual energy was almost exhausted, he still managed to stand up.

The soul-devouring monster has turned into ashes, and a strange evil spirit fills the air.

"This monster is so powerful."

楚

Yao's face was filled with shock, she had never seen such a horrible creature.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath, his eyes still stern.

"The Dark Sect has obviously made all the necessary preparations."

He said, his tone heavy.

"These soul-devouring monsters are only part of their plan."

Ye Ling'er nodded, looking nervous: "We must find Qingxuzi as soon as possible, otherwise we will not be able to deal with the continuous attacks from the Black Demon Sect."

Lu Yuan nodded slightly.

He knew that every next step was crucial.

"Come on, let's move on."

He gripped the Xuanyuan Sword tightly, and took Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao with him, walking towards the depths of the valley again.

They knew that the road ahead was full of dangers and unknowns.

But no matter what, they can't retreat.

The moment of life and death is approaching.

And they must be prepared for the truth that is about to be revealed. (End of this chapter)
