They passed through the cave entrance, and their eyes suddenly lit up.

A huge cave appeared in front of them. The space inside the cave was extremely spacious, enough to accommodate hundreds of people.

In the center of the cave, there was a red light ball flashing dazzling light and emitting a hot breath.

"Is that the Yanrong Yuanqi?" Lu Sheng stared at the light ball with burning eyes and whispered to himself.

Others were also attracted by the light ball, showing greed and desire.

They knew that as long as they could get this Yanrong Yuanqi, their cultivation would be able to reach a higher level.

They stepped into the cave carefully. Although the ground under their feet was hard, it was faintly warm.

The air in the entire cave seemed to be heated by the red light ball, and the temperature was obviously higher than outside.

Lu Sheng walked in front, and he felt that the Yuanqi in his body was cheering, as if they were also eager to contact the Yanrong Yuanqi.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm his excitement.

A strong aura permeated around the light ball, which was the unique heat and violence of Yan Rong Yuan Qi.

"This Yan Rong Yuan Qi is indeed extraordinary." A companion behind Lu Sheng exclaimed, his voice full of awe and expectation.

"We have to be careful." Another companion reminded, "Yan Rong Yuan Qi is extremely violent. If you are not careful, it may backfire."

Lu Sheng nodded in agreement.

He knew that in the face of such a treasure, there should be no carelessness.

They must be fully prepared to ensure that they can successfully subdue Yan Rong Yuan Qi instead of being hurt by it.

They continued to move forward slowly and firmly, and everyone was cautious, fearing that they would alarm the violent Yuan Qi.

As they gradually approached the light ball, the hot aura became stronger and stronger, as if it was going to swallow them up.

However, several people were innate masters, and a large amount of Yuan Qi enveloped their bodies, blocking the scorching heat outside.

They formed a circle in tacit understanding, surrounding the red light ball in the center, and everyone was ready to take action at any time to snatch the Yan Rong Yuan Qi.

Lu Sheng's eyes were like torches, and he could feel the terrifying energy contained in the light ball. In order to prevent the Yuan Qi from spreading, they had to control the light ball carefully.

"Everyone get ready, we will attack at the same time, and we must succeed in one fell swoop!" Lu Sheng shouted in a low voice, reminding everyone to be ready.

With his order, several people were about to attack together.

Suddenly, a deafening howl came from the depths of the cave, and the whole cave seemed to tremble in this howl.

Everyone was startled by this sudden change, and they stopped their actions and looked into the depths of the cave vigilantly.

I saw a black shadow flying from the depths of the cave, with an astonishing speed, and it came to them in an instant.

It was a black-haired mandrill. The mandrill was two meters tall, covered with thick black hair, and had a hint of ferocity and violence on its face.

Its eyes were red and flashing with fierce light. It was obviously an extremely ferocious monster.

"Oh no, it's a guardian beast!" Lu Sheng's heart sank. He didn't expect that there was such a powerful monster guarding Yan Rong Yuan Qi.

Others also realized the seriousness of the situation and showed solemn expressions.

They knew that the strength of this mandrill was probably not inferior to theirs. If they wanted to seize Yan Rong Yuan Qi, they had to get past this monster first.

The mandrill let out a deafening roar and pounced on Lu Sheng and others. Its claws were like knives, and with a sharp sound of wind, it slashed at the nearest person fiercely.

The man didn't react in time and was slashed by the mandrill's claws. He screamed and flew backwards. A deep wound was cut on his chest, and blood gushed out.

Seeing this, Lu Sheng's eyes flashed with a fierce look. He knew that this mandrill was not easy to deal with, but they couldn't just retreat like this.

"Everyone be careful, this mandrill is very strong, let's not disperse, attack together!" Lu Sheng shouted loudly.

Upon hearing this, everyone gathered together immediately and formed a small battle formation. They each urged the vitality in their bodies, and the weapons in their hands flashed with cold light, ready to fight.

Seeing this, the mandrill roared even more violently and pounced on everyone again.

It was agile and swift, and every attack was deadly.

However, Lu Sheng and others were not vegetarians.

With their superb martial arts and tacit cooperation, they fought the mandrill to a stalemate.

Whenever the mandrill attacked, someone would intercept it in time. Their weapons collided with the mandrill's claws, making a sound of metal and iron, and sparks flew.

Although the mandrill was powerful, it gradually showed signs of fatigue under the siege of everyone.

Its attacks became slower and slower, and each time it was easily blocked by everyone.

Seeing this, Lu Sheng was overjoyed. He knew that this was their chance. He took a deep breath, urged the vitality in his body, and prepared to give the mandrill a fatal blow.

At this moment, something strange happened.

The red light ball suddenly became agitated, and a strong breath emanated from it.

Then, the light ball turned into a stream of light and flew towards the mandrill.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this. They didn't expect that Yan Rong's vitality would riot at this time.

They were worried that Yan Rong's vitality would be obtained by the mandrill, and then all their previous efforts would be wasted.

However, at this time, their energy was connected and they had just launched another attack. At this time, they were unable to stop it immediately. They could only watch the ball of energy flying towards the mandrill.

But at this moment, just when this ball of scorching energy was about to touch the mandrill, another change occurred.

I saw a figure approaching quickly, before the mandrill could react.

The figure was seen rushing in front of the mandrill with lightning speed, grabbing the Yanrong Yuan Qi that was about to touch the mandrill.

Everyone took a closer look and saw that it was a middle-aged man wearing a smart suit.

After the other party got the Yanrong Yuan Qi, he didn't stop at all. He turned around and ran towards the outside of the cave.

"No, he's here to steal Yanrong's vitality!" Lu Sheng reacted instantly and shouted loudly, "Hurry up and chase him, don't let him run away!"

After saying that, he took the lead in chasing the figure. Seeing this, others followed suit.

The mandrill was stunned for a moment by this scene, but he quickly came to his senses, roared, and chased after the figure.

~~~~~~~

After an unknown amount of time, the running middle-aged man stopped.

His figure slowly changed, and within a moment, Fang Yue had returned to his original appearance.

"I didn't expect that it actually benefited me!" Fang Yue looked at the crimson light ball in his hand, with a satisfied smile on his face.

He knew that this melting energy was a priceless treasure for cultivators and could greatly improve their cultivation.

Moreover, this melting energy has other wonderful uses, such as it can be used to refine elixirs or forge weapons, both of which are extremely precious materials.

Fang Yue secretly felt lucky that he arrived in time, otherwise the Yanrong Yuan Qi would have fallen into the hands of the mandrill or Lu Sheng and others.

He did not absorb this Yanrong Yuan Qi rashly, because he knew that this thing was extremely violent and would backfire on him if he was not careful.

He had to find a safe place to slowly refine this Yanrong Yuan Qi.

Thinking of this, he turned around and walked towards the depths of the mountain forest, preparing to find a hidden place to start practicing.

However, before he had gone far, he felt a powerful aura coming from behind.

He was startled, turned around and saw the mandrill roaring towards him.

Obviously, this mandrill was a monster after all, and its ability to track people was much better than that of humans. Therefore, Lu Sheng and others who were faster than the mandrill were all thrown away.

But this guy caught up with him.

Fang Yue looked at the mandrill that was attacking again, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

He knew that this mandrill was extremely powerful, and had the unique tenacity and violence of a monster. It would probably not be easy to repel or kill it.

But he is not unprepared. After receiving Yanrong Yuan Qi, he has been prepared to deal with various emergencies.

He took a deep breath and immediately activated the vitality in his body.

Before the mandrill could attack, Fang Yue launched the attack first.

His figure was like lightning, and he was in front of the mandrill in an instant, and punched the mandrill hard in the chest.

With this punch, he mobilized the vitality in his body, and it was so powerful that the air seemed to have been blown away by his punch, making a deafening explosion.

When the mandrill saw this, his eyes were red, and he roared furiously. His claws were like knives, and he slashed at Fang Yue.

Fang Yue refused to dodge and resisted the mandrill's attack.

"Bang!"

There was a loud noise, and Fang Yue was hit by the mandrill. He flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.

But the mandrill didn't feel well either. Fang Yue's punch was so powerful that it was knocked back a few steps, and blood surged in his chest.

Fang Yue got up from the ground. Except for his pale face, he didn't look injured at all.

Injury-for-injury, this powerful mandrill couldn't beat Fang Yue!

When the mandrill saw this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by more intense rage and anger.

It roared and launched a fierce attack on Fang Yue again.

However, Fang Yue seemed to have found the mandrill's flaw. He was able to skillfully avoid the mandrill's attacks every time and launch a fierce counterattack at the same time.

His figure flashed quickly around the mandrill, and every punch and kick carried strong wind sounds and amazing power.

He mobilized the vitality in his body and injected it into every attack, making every attack full of destructive power.

Although the mandrill was powerful, it gradually showed signs of fatigue under Fang Yue's almost perfect attack rhythm.

Its attacks became slower and slower, each time being dodged more easily by Fang, while at the same time it had to withstand Fang's more violent counterattacks.

Fang Yue fought more and more bravely, and his attacks were like a violent storm, pouring continuously on the mandrill's body.

Every blow he struck seemed to tear the air apart and make the surrounding space tremble.

The mandrill kept retreating under Fang Yue's attack. Its body was covered with scars and dripping with blood.

Finally, the mandrill could no longer hold on, and there was a loud "Bang!"

Its huge body fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

The eyes that were once full of rage and anger had lost their luster, leaving only endless emptiness and dead silence.

Fang Yue looked at the mandrill lying on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that after a fierce battle, he finally succeeded in killing this powerful monster.

Although he was also injured, he finally won this life-and-death battle.

He walked to the mandrill and checked its condition.

He was relieved after confirming that the mandrill had completely died. Then, he took some valuable things from the mandrill, such as its fur, bones, and demon core.

Then, he left immediately with the Yanrong Yuanqi.

~~~~~~~~

At night, Fang Yue found a cave.

He blocked the entrance of the cave with a huge rock to ensure that he would not be disturbed while practicing.

After doing all this, he began to sit cross-legged and prepare to refine the Yanrong Yuanqi.

He first placed the Yanrong Yuanqi in front of him and observed it carefully.

It seemed that there was a flame burning inside the red light ball, emitting a hot and violent breath.

He knew that this Yanrong Yuanqi was extremely violent and overbearing, and it would backfire on him if he was not careful.

Therefore, before refining, he must be fully prepared.

He took a deep breath to calm himself down.

Then, he urged the vitality in his body and began to slowly contact the Yanrong vitality.

He could feel the terrifying energy contained in the Yanrong vitality, as if it was a dormant beast that could burst out at any time.

He carefully controlled his vitality and penetrated into the Yanrong vitality little by little.

This process was extremely slow and difficult, and the slightest carelessness would trigger the backlash of the Yanrong vitality.

But Fang Yue was not impatient and pushed forward steadily.

As time went by, he gradually felt that the Yanrong vitality began to resonate with the vitality in his body.

It was a wonderful feeling, as if a mysterious connection had been established between his vitality and the Yanrong vitality.

He knew that this was the critical moment of refining.

He took a deep breath and began to increase the output of vitality.

As his vitality continued to flow out, the violent and overbearing aura in the Yan Rong Yuan Qi was gradually suppressed, replaced by a warm and hot feeling.

That feeling was like a warm current flowing through his body, making him feel extremely comfortable and happy.

He knew that this was the Yan Rong Yuan Qi merging with his Yuan Qi and becoming a part of his body.

This process lasted for a long time, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Fang Yue's forehead from time to time, but he always remained calm and focused.

Finally, at a certain moment, he felt that the Yan Rong Yuan Qi was completely integrated into his body and perfectly combined with his original Yuan Qi.

He opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

He could feel that the Yuan Qi in his body was much stronger than before, as if there was an endless power surging in his body. (End of this chapter)
