Lei Bao's eyes widened, as if he had just woken up from a dream, "I was wondering how big brother could be so awesome, it turns out you are the human race's great master Fang Yue! Following big brother, I feel so much more at ease!" Lei Bao's loud voice broke the brief silence, and he waved his arms excitedly, as if he had just realized that his companion was so amazing.

Fang Yue frowned slightly, knowing that this was not the time to indulge in the amazement of the crowd. "Don't relax, this is just the beginning. There must be a more powerful force behind this man in black robes. We must find out their purpose and plan as soon as possible." Fang Yue's voice was deep and powerful, ringing in everyone's ears like a huge bell, pulling everyone back to reality from their surprise.

Witch Yunshang took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "Fang Yue, you are right. We have to look for clues from this man in black robe to see if we can find any clues." As she said that, she began to search the man in black robe carefully.

The old demon also stepped forward, squatted down, and searched with Witch Yunshang. After a while, Witch Yunshang took out a black booklet from the black-robed man's arms, which was engraved with strange symbols. "What is this?" Witch Yunshang handed the booklet to Fang Yue.

Fang Yue took the booklet and carefully examined the symbols on it, frowning even more. "I have never seen these symbols before, but they seem to be related to the conspiracy of the demon tide. Maybe we can find the specific location of the dark palace or their next plan from them."

Lei Bao came over and looked at the booklet curiously, "Brother, let's study it quickly, maybe we can find a way to defeat those bad guys!"

"Well, but this is not a safe place. Let's find a hidden place to study it carefully first." Fang Yue said.

They found an abandoned cave near the resettlement site, made some simple arrangements, and began to study the black booklet. Fang Yue placed the booklet on a flat stone, and they sat together, carefully observing the symbols on it.

Witch Yunshang closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, and tried to interpret these symbols with her perception of mysterious power. After a while, she opened her eyes, and a trace of fatigue appeared on her face. "These symbols contain powerful dark power, and it is very difficult to interpret them. But I can feel that these symbols seem to convey a ritual message, as if it is related to summoning some powerful dark creatures."

"Summon dark creatures?" Lei Bao said in surprise, "That would be terrible. If we allow them to be summoned, the two worlds will probably fall into an even greater crisis."

The old demon nodded, "It seems we have to speed up our actions. Fang Yue, what do you think?"

Fang Yue pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go to the mysterious mountains in the north as planned. This booklet may be able to help us at a critical moment. Along the way, we must be more cautious and be ready for battle at any time."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

In the following journey, Fang Yue and his companions became more cautious. They avoided the main road and chose a remote path to minimize contact with the outside world. Along the way, they encountered various dangerous monsters, but they were all successfully resolved under Fang Yue's leadership.

After several days and nights of traveling, they finally arrived at the edge of the mysterious mountains in the north. The mountains were filled with thick fog, eerie and terrifying, and from time to time there were bursts of strange cries.

"This mountain range looks very dangerous, everyone must be careful." Fang Yue said.

Everyone stepped into the mountain carefully. As soon as they entered, a chill hit them. The surrounding trees were twisted and deformed, as if they had been corroded by some evil force.

Suddenly, a group of black shadows rushed out from the woods and pounced on them. Fang Yue looked closely and found that they were a group of demonized wild wolves, their eyes flashing blood-red light and their mouths dripping with smelly saliva.

"Everyone be careful, these demon wolves are very fast!" Fang Yue shouted and rushed forward first. He swung the long sword in his hand, and the sword energy was so strong that several demon wolves were killed in an instant.

Lei Bao was not to be outdone, his whole body flashing with lightning, and he rushed into the pack of demon wolves. Lightning fists kept falling, and each strike could knock the demon wolves away.

Witch Yunshang cast a spell in the back, and ice cones and flames flew out from her hands, attacking the demon wolf from a distance. The old demon clan man provided support to the crowd, and the cane in his hand released mysterious energy to enhance the combat effectiveness of the crowd.

Under the joint attack of everyone, the demon wolves gradually couldn't resist and began to flee. However, at this moment, a roar that shook the earth came from deep in the mountains.

"What's that sound? It sounds like something powerful is approaching." Thunderstorm said nervously.

Fang Yue's face was solemn. "It seems that we are in big trouble. Everyone, get ready. No matter what comes, we must deal with it with all our strength!"

As the roar got closer, a gigantic demonized bear appeared before everyone.

This demonized bear is two stories tall, covered with black scales, and exudes a powerful dark aura.

"This demonized bear is much more powerful than the monsters we encountered before!"

Fang Yue's eyes were fixed on the demonized bear. This was a sign that the demonic tide was about to truly affect the human world.

Otherwise, the influence of the demonic tide would never have given birth to such a demonic bear.

This demon bear surprisingly has the strength equivalent to that of an ordinary demon king!

Thinking of this, Fang Yue immediately swung out with his sword.

The vast vital energy rolled up silver-like sword beams and roared towards the demonized bear.

This sword energy contained Fang Yue's profound vitality. Wherever it passed, the air was cut and made a hissing sound.

The demonized bear felt this powerful threat. It roared angrily and clapped its palms hard. A black energy wave surged out from its palms and headed towards Fang Yue's sword energy.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the sword energy and the black energy wave collided with each other, bursting into a dazzling light. The powerful impact force spread to the surroundings, setting off a gust of wind that blew the surrounding trees to and fro.

The next moment, the black energy quickly melted away in the dazzling light like first snow meeting the morning sun.

Fang Yue's sword energy continued to move forward as it slashed fiercely at the body of the demonized bear. The sound of scales breaking could be clearly heard.

In an instant, the huge demon bear was split into two halves!

The huge body of the demonized bear was split into two, and the two halves fell to the ground with a loud bang, splashing a large amount of dust. Black blood flowed like a spring, dyeing the surrounding ground black.

"So strong!" Lei Bao's face was filled with shock, his eyes full of admiration and worship for the other party. "Brother, your strength is simply unfathomable!"

The Witch Yunshang and the old man from the demon clan were also amazed. They knew that Fang Yue was very powerful, but they didn't expect that he could kill such a powerful demonized bear so easily with one blow.

"It was just luck. Although this demonized bear is strong, it must have just advanced not long ago and its control over its own power has not yet reached perfection, so I was able to find its flaw." Fang Yue looked calm, and he was not at all complacent because of his successful killing of the demonized bear.

"No matter what, big brother, you are awesome!" Lei Bao waved his arms excitedly, as if he had benefited from the honor as well.

"Okay, we can't stay here for too long. This mountain range is full of dangers, and we have to find clues related to the demonic tide as soon as possible." Fang Yue said, looking firmly into the depths of the mountain range. Everyone calmed down and continued to move forward. Along the way, they became more cautious and alert to everything around them.

As we went deeper into the mountains, the fog became thicker and visibility was extremely low, and everything around us was shrouded in a haze. The occasional strange noises seemed particularly terrifying in this silent atmosphere, making people shudder.

Suddenly, a huge stone forest appeared in front of us. These stones were in various shapes, some were like sharp swords piercing the sky, and some were like monsters with fangs and claws. Under the cover of fog, it was even more weird.

"This stone forest looks a bit strange, everyone be careful." Fang Yue reminded in a low voice.

Everyone walked slowly into the stone forest. As soon as they stepped in, they felt a gloomy breath coming towards them. The stone forest was filled with a smell of decay, as if it was hiding countless secrets and dangers.

As he was walking, Lei Bao suddenly stopped and pointed to a stone in front of him and said, "Look, there seems to be words on this stone."

Everyone gathered around and saw some strange symbols and patterns carved on the stone. These symbols were very similar to what they had seen in the black booklet and on the stone door before.

Fang Yue carefully observed these symbols, trying to decipher some information from them. After a while, he frowned and said, "These symbols seem to be pointing to a certain direction. Perhaps they are related to the Dark Palace or the ritual of summoning dark creatures."

"Then shall we go in this direction?" asked Lei Bao.

"Well, there are no better clues at the moment, so let's look in this direction." Fang Yue said.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Everyone followed the direction indicated by the symbol and moved through the stone forest. Suddenly, the surrounding stones began to shake violently, as if an invisible force was controlling them.

"Be careful!" Fang Yue shouted, and everyone immediately took a defensive stance.

The stones flew up one after another and smashed towards everyone. The speed of these stones was extremely fast and the force was also very amazing. If they were hit, they would either die or be injured.

Fang Yue flashed and shuttled between the stones like a ghost, swinging his sword and smashing the stones that came near him one by one. Lei Bao was not to be outdone, his whole body was flashing with lightning, and he kept throwing lightning fists to smash the flying stones.

The witch Yunshang cast a spell in the back, forming a shield around everyone to block some of the stone attacks. The old demon also cast a supporting spell to enhance everyone's defense and strength.

However, the number of stones increased, and the attacks became more and more fierce, and everyone gradually became exhausted.

"This is not a solution. We have to find the source of the control of these stones and solve the problem fundamentally." Fang Yue shouted.

At this moment, Witch Yunshang suddenly discovered a clue. She pointed to the depths of the stone forest and said, "Look, there is a place with flashing light over there. Maybe that is the source."

Fang Yue looked in the direction that Witch Yunshang pointed, and sure enough, he saw a place deep in the stone forest where a faint light was flickering.

"Let's go and take a look!" Fang Yue said.

While resisting the attack of the stones, the crowd moved forward towards the place where the light was shining. After a difficult journey, they finally arrived at that place.

I saw runes emitting black light engraved on a huge stone platform.

These runes slowly crawled on the stone platform like living things, emitting a heart-pounding dark aura.

As the runes flowed, black rays of light connected the surrounding stones. Obviously, this was the source of controlling the stones to attack everyone.

"These runes exude an evil aura, more powerful and weird than those I've encountered before." Fang Yue frowned, his eyes full of vigilance.

"Brother, how are we going to crack these runes?" Lei Bao looked at the runes, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes, but more of it was a desire to fight.

Witch Yunshang stepped forward and carefully observed the runes for a while, then said, "The arrangement and combination of these runes are very complex and contain powerful dark forces. I feel that there is a delicate balance between them. Once it is broken, it may lead to more serious consequences."

The old demon stroked his cane and said after thinking for a moment, "I have heard some ancient legends that for such powerful dark runes, we may need to use the opposite light power to neutralize them in order to weaken their power and then break them. But... who among us has the light power?"

Everyone looked at each other and fell silent for a moment.

Suddenly, Fang Yue thought of something and took out the black booklet from his arms.

During the battle with the demonized bear and the subsequent exploration, he never forgot this booklet, always feeling that it would come in handy at the critical moment.

Fang Yue carefully read the booklet again, hoping to find clues about these runes.

Just when he was about to give up, he found that the symbols on a page had some similarities with the runes on the stone platform.

After careful comparison, he found some tips on rune deciphering recorded next to these symbols.

"Look everyone, it seems that there is a method mentioned here to decipher these runes."

Fang Yue pointed at the contents on the booklet and said, "It says that these runes are a concrete manifestation of dark power. To crack them, we need to find the core hub of the rune array, and then input the vital energy that counteracts its properties to disrupt its balance."

"But how do we determine which is the core hub of the rune array?" Lei Bao scratched his head and asked in confusion.

Witch Yunshang once again cast her eyes on the runes squirming on the stone platform. Her eyes were focused and sharp, carefully observing the changes of each rune. After a while, her eyes lit up, and she pointed at a rune and said, "Look, although the light of this rune is not the brightest, every time it flashes, the flow of the surrounding runes will be temporarily disturbed. I think this should be the core hub."

Everyone looked in the direction she pointed, and indeed found that the rune had a unique fluctuation.

"Okay, I'll try." Fang Yue said, taking a deep breath and circulating his energy. He approached the rune carefully, and when he was half a foot away from the rune, he slowly stretched out his palm and transferred the condensed energy towards the rune.

The moment the vital energy came into contact with the rune, the rune glowed brightly and a powerful recoil force came. Fang Yue's arm trembled slightly, but he gritted his teeth and persisted, continuing to increase the output of vital energy.

As Fang Yue continued to inject his vitality, the light of the rune began to flicker, and the black light connected to the surrounding stones also trembled. However, just as the rune was about to show signs of collapse, a stronger dark force suddenly surged from under the stone platform. This force was like a ferocious beast, rushing towards Fang Yue.
