Chapter 368 I can't let you die!
The old man in black robe said with a smile.
"What? You want to do it yourself?"
Lu Yu was shocked. He didn't expect the old man in black robe to make such a request.
"That's right, I'm going to do it myself."
The old man in black robe nodded and continued,
"Why, don't you dare?"
"Humph, what's there to be afraid of? Come on!"
As Lu Yu spoke, he assumed a fighting stance.
The old man in black robe smiled slightly, and then disappeared from the spot in a flash.
When Lu Yu saw him again, he had appeared behind Lu Yu and punched him.
Lu Yu dodged the attack from the old man in black robe.
He was about to fight back when he found that the old man in black robe had disappeared again.
"So fast!"
Lu Yu was shocked and immediately became alert.
Lu Yu engaged in a fierce battle with the old man in black robe.
The old man in black robe was extremely fast and his attacks were very fierce, which made Lu Yu feel under great pressure.
However, Lu Yu did not give up. With his strong will and excellent fighting skills, he gradually found the flaws of the old man in black robe.
During the fierce confrontation, Lu Yu seized the opportunity and punched the black-robed old man hard on the chest.
The old man in black robe staggered back a few steps, a look of surprise on his face.
"I didn't expect you to be able to defeat me. You are truly a young person."
The old man in black robe said with emotion.
Lu Yu looked at the old man in black robe and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Now, can I absorb that spirit ring?"
Lu Yu asked.
"of course can."
The old man in black robe nodded and waved his hand. A ray of light flew out from the void and landed at the place where the rhino soul beast was originally.
It was a golden soul ring, emitting dazzling light.
Lu Yu walked forward without hesitation and began to absorb the soul ring.
As the soul ring gradually merged into his body, Lu Yu felt a powerful force surging in his body.
His cultivation was also constantly improving.
"Great! I'm stronger again!"
Lu Yu shouted excitedly.
The old man in black robe looked at Lu Yu, and a look of relief appeared in his eyes.
"Little guy, you have great potential, keep working hard."
The old man in black robe said.
"Thank you for your guidance, senior."
Lu Yu said respectfully.
"Well, it's time for me to go."
As the old man in black robe spoke, his figure gradually became blurred and finally disappeared into the void.
Lu Yu looked at the place where the old man in black robe disappeared, feeling grateful.
If the old man in black robe hadn't helped him, he might never have been able to obtain this spirit ring.
Lu Yu continued to train in the forest.
He and his soul beast also had many thrilling battles.
But every battle made him stronger and more mature.
He also gradually found a fighting style and techniques that suited him.
Lu Yu was walking in the forest, when suddenly, he felt a powerful aura approaching him.
He immediately looked around vigilantly, only to see a huge soul beast rushing towards him.
It was a gigantic dragon soul beast, emitting a powerful aura and pressure.
"This...this is a ten thousand year soul beast!"
Lu Yu was shocked. He didn't expect that he would encounter a ten thousand year old soul beast.
The strength of a ten thousand year soul beast is extremely powerful, far beyond the reach of ordinary soul beasts.
Lu Yu knew that he couldn't fight head-on and could only outsmart the opponent.
He quickly thought of a countermeasure in his mind, then he dodged the attack of the dragon soul beast with a flash of his body.
The dragon soul beast let out a roar and rushed towards Lu Yu again.
Lu Yu's figure kept flashing,
About two hours later, the bonfire was still burning in the night, reflecting Lu Yu's determined face.
The jumping flames intertwined with the smell of blood that permeated the surroundings, like an invisible call, gradually attracting the soul beasts in the surrounding forests.
"Here comes the first one."
Lu Yu muttered to himself, his eyes as sharp as torches, staring intently at the first soul beast that slowly walked out of the darkness.
It was a huge black bear soul beast with red eyes, and it exuded the fierce aura of a hundred years of cultivation.
However, under Lu Yu's scrutiny, it did not seem to meet the requirements.
"Go away, you're not the one I'm looking for."
Lu Yu waved his hand gently, and an invisible force surged out, shocking the black bear soul beast and forcing it to retreat repeatedly, eventually disappearing into the night.
Lu Yu then continued to repeat this process.
Some soul beasts are weak and vulnerable; others have inconsistent attributes and are difficult to use.
Every soul beast he expelled was accompanied by a slight sigh and inner resentment.
"Come again!"
Lu Yu's gaze became more determined. If he wanted to find that perfect soul ring, he had to wait patiently and keep trying.
At this moment, two particularly ferocious soul beasts came into view.
They are a silver wolf and a black panther, both possessing the peak strength of a hundred years of cultivation.
There was a glint of cunning and ferocity in their eyes, and they seemed to be hostile to Lu Yu, an outsider.
"Hmm, here comes something interesting."
A sneer appeared on Lu Yu's lips, and he suddenly jumped up and started a fierce battle with the two soul beasts.
The silver wolf's sharp claws cut through the air with a sharp howl; the black panther's speed was astonishing, moving left and right like a ghost.
However, in the face of Lu Yu's powerful strength, they were ultimately powerless.
"go with!"
Lu Yu shouted loudly and swung out with both fists at the same time, carrying an overwhelming force.
The Silver Wolf and the Black Panther were defeated by Lu Yu's fists and eventually died tragically under his fists.
After the battle, the smell of blood became stronger, covering the forest with a bloody veil.
However, Lu Yu did not feel tired because of this. Instead, he became more and more courageous as the battle went on, and his desire for a more powerful soul beast grew stronger.
"Come on, more! Let me see your strength!"
Lu Yu let out a long roar towards the sky, and his voice echoed in the night sky, addressed to all the soul beasts in the forest.
Just when he had driven away twenty-three soul beasts, a deafening roar of beasts suddenly came from the woods in the distance.
The sound exploded like thunder, causing the surrounding air to tremble.
"Roar--"
This roar carried endless majesty and power. It was a call from ancient times that made all living beings tremble.
After the roar, the soul beasts that had been lurking around and waiting for an opportunity to strike actually left the area cautiously, out of endless fear of the creature in the roar.
A gleam of light flashed in Lu Yu's eyes, and he stared closely at the woods in the distance, feeling curious and alert.
The creature that roared was definitely not an ordinary creature. It was likely the powerful soul beast he had been looking for.
"I hope it's not a thousand-year soul beast..."
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes and prayed silently in his heart.
It’s not that he doesn’t have the ability to kill a thousand-year soul beast, but the problem is that even if he can kill a thousand-year soul beast, he cannot absorb its soul ring.
Because the first soul ring that an ordinary soul master can absorb can only be 423 years old at most, and Lu Yu's goal is a soul ring between 800 and 900 years old, which is far beyond the limit of an ordinary soul master.
However, fate always seems to like playing jokes.
Just as Lu Yu was praying silently in his heart, a dark shadow suddenly jumped out from the woods in the distance.
The black shadow was extremely fast, cutting through the night sky like a flash of lightning and heading straight towards him.
"It's so fast!"
Lu Yu was shocked. Such speed was definitely not something a hundred-year-old soul beast could achieve.
Could it be that it really is a thousand-year-old soul beast?
Thinking of this, Lu Yu was immediately covered with golden light, and the Qi in his body began to circulate rapidly.
His muscles were tense, his eyes were sharp as a knife, and he was ready to face a strong enemy.
"boom!"
A muffled sound was heard, and Lu Yu and the soul beast instantly clashed.
The fist wind and claw shadows intertwined, bursting out dazzling sparks.
Lu Yu's pupils suddenly shrank. He could feel the power of the soul beast, which was far beyond any hundred-year-old soul beast he had encountered before.
"It is indeed a thousand-year soul beast!"
Lu Yu said in his heart.
He took a deep breath, circulated the Qi in his body to the extreme, and prepared to fight a life-and-death battle with this powerful soul beast.
"Roar!"
The soul beast seemed to have sensed Lu Yu's power. It let out an earth-shaking roar, then suddenly rose up again and pounced towards Lu Yu.
Lu Yu dodged its attack cleverly with a flash of his body, and at the same time, he threw a backhand punch, hitting it hard on the back.
"boom!"
The fist wind was like a dragon, with a whistling sound.
The soul beast was hit by Lu Yu's punch and its body froze, almost falling to the ground.
However, it is a thousand-year-old soul beast after all, with strong recovery ability and fighting will.
It quickly adjusted its body shape and launched a fierce attack on Lu Yu again.
"Humph, you want to fight me? You're still a little naive!"
Lu Yu snorted coldly, and his figure moved left and right like a ghost, constantly dodging the attacks of the soul beast.
At the same time, he was also looking for an opportunity to counterattack.
"coming!"
At this moment, Lu Yu suddenly discovered a flaw in the soul beast.
He suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the soul beast like an arrow.
At the same time, he clenched his hands into fists, gathered all his strength, and prepared to deal a fatal blow to the soul beast.
"boom!"
The fist was as powerful as thunder, hitting the soul beast's head heavily.
A trace of fear and despair flashed in the soul beast's eyes, and then it fell to the ground weakly.
Its body began to twitch, and eventually turned into a puff of smoke and dissipated into the night sky.
"call……"
Lu Yu let out a long breath, feeling extremely happy.
I just fought a life-and-death battle, and it was not easy to achieve success.
However, just as he was about to leave, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Not bad, young man.
He was able to kill a thousand-year-old soul beast."
Lu Yu turned around suddenly and saw an old man in a black robe standing not far away.
There was a faint smile on his face, but his eyes revealed endless depth and mystery.
"who are you?"
Lu Yu asked vigilantly.
He could feel how powerful this old man was; he was definitely no ordinary person.
"You can call me the old man in black robe."
The old man in black robe smiled slightly and walked slowly towards Lu Yu.
“I’ve been watching you for a long time, and you’re pretty good.
Are you interested in joining my organization? "
"Your organization?"
Lu Yu frowned.
"Why should I join your organization?"
"Because we can help you become stronger."
A sly look flashed across the eyes of the black-robed old man.
“Strength is everything.
Only when you have strong power can you protect the people you want to protect and get what you want."
Lu Yu was silent for a while, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
I really need to become stronger.
However, he also understood that joining an unknown organization might bring endless risks and troubles.
"I need to think about it."
Lu Yu finally said.
He didn't want to make a decision easily, and he didn't want to regret it because of a momentary impulse.
"It's okay, you can take your time to think about it."
The old man in black robe smiled slightly.
"But I want to remind you that there are no eternal friends or eternal enemies in this world.
Only benefits are eternal.
So, you better think about what you want before you make a decision.”
After saying this, the old man in black robe turned and left, disappearing into the night.
Lu Yu stood there, looking in the direction he left, with mixed emotions in his heart.
For several days, Lu Yu had been thinking about the words of the old man in black robe.
He constantly weighed the pros and cons, trying to find the best option.
However, just as he was about to make a decision, an unexpected event occurred.
That night, Lu Yu was resting in the camp.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night.
He suddenly opened his eyes and saw several people in black rushing towards the camp.
"Oh no! It's the enemy!"
Lu Yu said in his heart.
He quickly stood up and prepared to deal with the enemy.
The men in black rushed to the camp and started attacking without saying a word.
They are all very strong and are obviously professionally trained killers.
Although Lu Yu was quite powerful, he gradually felt the pressure under the siege.
"Hmph, you want to kill me? It's not that easy!"
Lu Yu snorted coldly, and his figure shuttled among the enemies like a ghost.
He kept launching attacks, trying to break out.
However, just as he was about to break out of the encirclement, a figure in a black robe suddenly appeared in front of him.
That person was the old man in black robe who had talked to him before.
"Didn't expect that? I would come and take your life myself."
The old man in black robe said with a smile, but his eyes revealed endless murderous intent.
"why?"
Lu Yu widened his eyes.
"Didn't you say before that you could help me become stronger? Why do you want to kill me now?"
"Because you're a threat."
The old man in black robe said coldly,
“You are too powerful and may become a stumbling block for us in the future.
So I must get rid of you before you grow up."
After saying this, the old man in black robe raised his hand and waved, and a black energy wave blasted towards Lu Yu.
Lu Yu was startled and dodged quickly.
However, the speed of the energy wave was too fast and he was still hit.
"what!"
Lu Yu let out a scream and fell heavily to the ground.
He felt his blood boiling and he was about to lose consciousness.
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in my ears.
"Lu Yu, hold on! I can't let you die!"
Lu Yu opened his eyes with difficulty and saw a girl in white standing in front of him.
In her hand she held a long sword that was gleaming with cold light, and her eyes were filled with determination and resoluteness.
