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

Lu Yuan stood in front, the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand constantly emitting dazzling golden light.

He knew that the enemy before them was not an easy opponent and this battle would determine whether they could leave the Valley of Death alive.

"Ye Ling'er, Chu Yao, you guys step back, leave these elite troops of the Black Demon Sect to me."

He said in a deep voice, his eyes sharp as an eagle.

Ye Ling'er held the dagger tightly. Although her heart was full of worries, she knew that now was not the time to waver.

"Brother Lu Yuan, we will protect your rear."

She said firmly, determination evident in her tone.

Chu Yao also nodded, spinning the sword in his hand, ready to fight at any time.

"We can't let these people stand in our way."

The laughter of the men in black robes echoed in the valley, and their eyes flashed with bloodthirsty light, as if they had already regarded Lu Yuan and the other two as prey.

"You have reached a dead end."

The leading black-robed man said coldly, then swung the staff in his hand violently. The black evil light condensed in the air and transformed into countless blade-like black shadows, attacking Lu Yuan and the others.

"break!"

Lu Yuan shouted loudly, and the Xuanyuan Sword swung out suddenly. The strong sword energy rushed towards the evil lights like thunder.

"boom!"

The sword energy and evil light collided, causing a deafening roar, and the surrounding rocks collapsed under the violent energy fluctuations.

However, those black shadows were not completely shattered. They gathered together again as if they had life and quickly approached Lu Yuan.

"These shadows can actually be reborn?"

Chu Yao's face changed and she waved the sword in her hand, trying to block the evil light from approaching.

"The evil magic of the Black Demon Sect is very strange. These black shadows should be controlled by some kind of magic weapon."

Ye Ling'er frowned tightly, the dagger spinning in her hand, and a hint of anxiety flashed in her eyes.

"Brother Lu Yuan, what should we do?"

Lu Yuan's gaze became even colder. He could feel that these black shadows were not endless. Their power must come from some core magic weapon.

"We must find the source of their control, otherwise we will not be able to eliminate these shadows."

He said, and then the Xuanyuan Sword burst out with dazzling light in his hand again, and the sword energy slashed towards the black shadows like a storm.

"Tiangang Sword Formation!"

As Lu Yuan roared, the sword energy condensed into a huge sword formation, instantly surrounding the black shadows.

"boom!"

The sword formation collided with the black shadow, causing a strong fluctuation of spiritual power. The air was filled with a strong evil spirit, as if the surrounding rocks were shaking.

Those black shadows were finally dispersed by the impact of the sword energy and temporarily disappeared into the air.

However, Lu Yuan did not let down his guard.

"We must find the magic weapon to control these shadows."

He said, then quickly turned the Xuanyuan Sword and locked his eyes on the black-robed man in the lead.

"You are the one controlling these shadows!"

A hint of coldness flashed across the black-robed man's eyes, and then he sneered, "Yes, you have a good eye."

"But what if you found out?"

"Do you think you can defeat me easily?"

He spoke loudly, and the staff in his hand burst out with strong black light again, and the air was filled with a stronger evil spirit.

"This time, I will make sure you guys are buried here completely!"

The voice of the man in black robes echoed in the valley like thunder, and then countless black shadows emerged from all directions again, their number was even greater than before, as if endless.

"Damn, there are too many shadows!"

Chu Yao gritted her teeth and spun the sword in her hand, trying to fend off more enemies.

Ye Ling'er also seemed to be struggling more and more. Although her dagger was sharp, she gradually became powerless in the face of so many enemies.

"Brother Lu Yuan, we can't hold on any longer!"

She shouted loudly, with a hint of anxiety on her face.

Lu Yuan frowned, knowing that he couldn't continue like this. "We can't continue to defend, we must defeat the enemy in one blow!"

As he spoke, the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand suddenly burst out with a brighter light, and the sword energy rushed towards the black-robed man like lightning.

"You came just in time!"

The man in black robe sneered, then suddenly swung his staff, and a strong black light surged towards Lu Yuan like a tide.

"boom!"

The sword energy collided with the black light, causing a strong energy fluctuation to erupt. The surrounding rocks collapsed in the violent vibration, and debris flew everywhere.

Lu Yuan's figure approached the man in black robe as quickly as thunder, and the Xuanyuan Sword drew a dazzling arc in the air, heading straight for the man in black robe's throat.

"Die!"

Lu Yuan shouted loudly, and the sword energy slashed towards the black-robed man's body like lightning.

However, just as the sword energy was about to hit the man in black, a strong black light suddenly burst out from his body, shaking off the sword energy.

"what?"

Lu Yuan was shocked. He didn't expect that the man in black robe could actually withstand the attack of the Xuan-Yuan Sword.

The black-robed man laughed wildly, and then said, "Lu Yuan, do you think you can kill me easily?"

"I have the secret magic of the Black Demon Sect protecting me. No matter how strong you are, you can't hurt me at all!"

Lu Yuan's eyes became sharper, he knew that he could not hesitate at this moment.

"Then I will completely destroy your secret method!"

As he spoke, the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand suddenly burst out with an even stronger light, and the sword energy swept around like a violent wind, completely blowing away those black shadows.

"Tian Gang breaks the evil!"

As Lu Yuan shouted angrily, the sword energy condensed into a huge beam of light and went straight towards the man in black robe.

"boom!"

The beam of light hit the black-robed man's body, and the strong fluctuation of spiritual power instantly knocked him back several feet.

The black-robed man's body slammed heavily against the mountain wall, blood kept oozing out from the corner of his mouth, and a look of pain appeared on his face.

"You...how do you have such a powerful force?"

The man in black robe said with difficulty, his eyes full of fear.

Lu Yuan did not give him any chance to breathe. The Xuanyuan Sword once again burst into dazzling light, and the sword energy slashed towards the black-robed man's body like thunder.

"puff!"

The sword energy instantly tore through the black-robed man's defense. His figure was completely shattered by the sword energy and turned into a black mist that dissipated into the air.

With the death of the man in black robe, the evil energy in the air dissipated and the dark shadows around him gradually disappeared.

"We finally broke his evil spell!"

Ye Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief, then walked to Lu Yuan with a relieved smile on her face.

"Brother Lu Yuan, we won!"

Chu Yao also nodded slightly, and then said: "It seems that these minions of the Black Demon Sect are no match for us after all."

However, Lu Yuan's eyes remained stern and he did not let down his guard.

“Although we killed these black-robed men, the true power of the Black Demon Sect has not yet been revealed.”

“This battle is far from over.”

Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao were both slightly startled, then nodded, with a look of determination in their eyes.

"That's right, we must keep moving forward and find the core of the Black Demon Gate."

Chu Yao said, and then tightened the sword in his hand.

"The Black Demon Sect has already plotted too many conspiracies in the martial arts world. We cannot allow them to continue to exist."

A cold light flashed in Lu Yuan's eyes. He knew that the ultimate showdown between good and evil had entered a critical moment.

"Let's go. We can't let the Dark Demon Sect have any chance to breathe."

He said, and then led Ye Ling'er and Chu Yao to continue walking towards the exit of the valley.

They must leave the Valley of Death as soon as possible and head to the next battlefield.

However, Lu Yuan still felt uneasy. (End of this chapter)
