Chapter 490 This is a ten thousand year old soul beast!

As night fell, Lu Yu sat in front of the window of the inn, practicing quietly. Suddenly, a rapid knock on the door interrupted his practice.

Lu Yu frowned, stood up and opened the door. He saw a young man in gorgeous clothes standing outside the door, looking at him anxiously.

"Excuse me, are you Lu Yu?" asked the young man.

Lu Yu nodded slightly: "I am Lu Yu, what's the matter?"

The young man breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally I found you, Mr. Lu Yu. I am from the royal family of the Xingluo Empire, and I am here to invite you on the orders of His Majesty."

"Invite me?" Lu Yu was stunned. "What's the matter?"

The young man explained, "His Majesty heard that you came to the Xing Luo Empire and wanted to meet you. You will know the details when you meet His Majesty."

Hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a little curious. He didn't know why the emperor of Xingluo Empire wanted to see him, but since he had come to him, it was difficult to refuse.

"Okay, I'll go with you to see His Majesty." Lu Yu said.

The young man heard this and showed a look of joy on his face: "Please follow me."

As he said this, he led Lu Yu out of the inn and got on a gorgeous carriage. The carriage sped away and soon arrived in front of a majestic palace.

The young man led Lu Yu into the palace and came to a spacious hall. In the middle of the hall sat a middle-aged man, looking at them with dignity.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Lu Yu is here." The young man said respectfully.

The middle-aged man nodded slightly: "You can leave."

The young man responded and turned to leave the hall. The middle-aged man stood up and walked in front of Lu Yu.

"Are you Lu Yu?" asked the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man looked at Lu Yu carefully, with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "You are indeed a young and promising man. I am the emperor of the Xingluo Empire, Dai Mubai."

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Lu Yu saluted.

Dai Mubai waved his hand: "No need to be polite. I heard that you are very powerful, and I want to ask you to do me a favor."

Lu Yu asked, "What does Your Majesty need me to do?"

Dai Mubai pondered for a moment: "Our Xingluo Empire and Tiandou Empire have always been at odds, and there are frequent frictions on the border. Recently, a powerful soul beast force has invaded our border, causing considerable losses to our army. I hope you can help me eliminate this soul beast force."

Lu Yu was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect Dai Mubai to ask him to destroy the soul beast forces. This was undoubtedly a big challenge for him.

But Lu Yu didn't hesitate for too long and nodded: "Okay, I'm willing to help."

Dai Mubai was pleased when he heard this: "Okay, Lu Yu. I will reward you handsomely after you complete the task."

As he said that, he took out a token from his arms and handed it to Lu Yu: "This is the royal token. You can use it to mobilize our troops on the border."

Lu Yu took the token and put it in his arms: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Dai Mubai waved his hand: "Go ahead, Lu Yu. I'm waiting for your good news."

Lu Yu bowed and left the hall. He came outside the palace, found a carriage, and headed straight to the border.

After several days of traveling, Lu Yu finally arrived at the border between the Xingluo Empire and the Tiandou Empire. He looked at the barren land in front of him, and a murderous aura surged in his heart.

At this moment, a general in armor came over. He looked at Lu Yu with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Are you Lu Yu, the person sent by His Majesty to eliminate the soul beast forces?" asked the general.

The general looked at Lu Yu carefully, and seemed a little unconvinced of his strength. But since Lu Yu held the royal token, he couldn't say anything.

"Okay, Lu Yu. Come with me." said the general.

As he said this, he led Lu Yu to a military camp, where a large number of soldiers were stationed, ready for battle.

The general took Lu Yu to a tent, pointed to a location on the map and said, "That group of soul beasts is entrenched in this mountain range, and they often invade our borders. You take these soldiers to destroy them."

Hearing this, Lu Yu was speechless. He didn't expect Dai Mubai to let him lead the soldiers to destroy the soul beast forces. This was undoubtedly a constraint for him.

But since he had already agreed, Lu Yu couldn't go back on his word. He nodded: "Okay, I understand."

As he spoke, he walked out of the tent, gathered some soldiers, and headed towards the mountains.

After several days of trekking, Lu Yu finally arrived deep in the mountains. Looking at the dense forest in front of him, he couldn't help but feel alert.

At this moment, a low roar came from the depths of the forest. Lu Yu's expression froze, and he immediately led the soldiers to look forward vigilantly.

A huge soul beast came out of the forest and looked at them fiercely. This soul beast was huge, covered with black scales, and looked extremely ferocious.

"Be careful, this is a ten thousand year old soul beast!" Lu Yu warned.

The soldiers were horrified when they heard this. They had never expected to encounter a ten thousand year old soul beast. This was something they had never experienced before.

But Lu Yu didn't care too much. He walked forward slowly and looked into the eyes of the ten thousand year soul beast.

The ten thousand year soul beast seemed to sense the aura of Lu Yu, and a trace of fear flashed in its eyes. But it did not retreat, but roared and pounced towards Lu Yu.

Lu Yu dodged the attack of the ten thousand year soul beast easily. He took the opportunity to attack and punched the ten thousand year soul beast.

There was a loud bang, and the ten thousand year soul beast was knocked away by Lu Yu's punch. It rolled on the ground for several times before it stopped.

The soldiers couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw this. They didn't expect Lu Yu to be so powerful that he could blow away a ten thousand year old soul beast with one punch.

The ten thousand year soul beast got up from the ground, with angry light flashing in its eyes. It pounced on Lu Yu again, a little faster than before.

Lu Yu snorted coldly, and his figure flashed again, avoiding the attack of the ten thousand year soul beast. He took the opportunity to launch an attack, and a series of fist shadows hit the ten thousand year soul beast.

The ten thousand year old soul beast roared miserably, and the sound of bones breaking could be heard continuously from its body. Soon, it fell to the ground, motionless.

Seeing this, the soldiers couldn't help but cheer. They didn't expect that they could destroy the ten thousand year soul beast so easily. This was all thanks to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu looked at the ten thousand year old soul beast lying on the ground, but he did not feel the slightest joy in his heart. This was just the beginning, and there were more powerful soul beasts waiting for him.

Sure enough, at this moment, another low roar came from the depths of the forest. Lu Yu's expression froze, and he immediately led the soldiers to look forward vigilantly.

A larger soul beast came out of the forest, looking at them fiercely. This soul beast was even larger than the previous ten thousand year soul beast, and it exuded a strong soul power fluctuation.

"This is a hundred thousand year old soul beast!" Lu Yu said in a deep voice.

The soldiers were horrified when they heard this. They had never expected to encounter a hundred thousand year old soul beast. This was something they had never dared to imagine.

But Lu Yu did not retreat. He slowly walked forward and looked into the eyes of the hundred thousand year old soul beast.

The hundred thousand year soul beast seemed to sense the aura of Lu Yu, and a hint of surprise flashed in its eyes. But it did not hesitate for too long, but let out a roar and pounced towards Lu Yu.

Lu Yu dodged the attack of the hundred thousand year soul beast. He took the opportunity to attack, and a series of punches hit the hundred thousand year soul beast.

But this time, the hundred thousand year soul beast was not defeated as easily as the ten thousand year soul beast before. It roared, and a thick black mist emanated from its body, blocking all of Lu Yu's attacks.

Seeing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't expect that this 100,000-year-old soul beast was so powerful that it could withstand his attack.

But he was not discouraged, and launched another attack. This time, he used his martial soul's true body, and his body instantly became huge.

Seeing this, the hundred thousand year old soul beast's eyes flashed with solemnity. It knew that Lu Yu's strength had surpassed its own.

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and fell on Shrek Academy, Lu Yu had already opened his eyes.

His eyes were shining with determination. The acquisition of the fourth soul ring was imminent. Moreover, he also needed to find some natural treasures to assist his cultivation.

"call……"

Taking a deep breath of the morning air, Lu Yu felt the surge of soul power in his body, then he stood up and walked out of the room.

"Lu Yu, you got up so early?"

A surprised voice sounded behind Lu Yu. It was Oscar who also got up early to practice.

"Well, I have some things to take care of." Lu Yu smiled and nodded without explaining in detail.

Oscar didn't ask any more questions, but just patted Lu Yu on the shoulder and said, "Be careful."

Lu Yu smiled and nodded, then his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

Oscar looked at the direction where Lu Yu left, with a complicated look in his eyes. Lu Yu's identity was not simple, and his strength was extremely strong. But he also understood that everyone had their own secrets, and if Lu Yu didn't want to tell, he wouldn't ask any more questions.

On the other side, Lu Yu had already left Shrek Academy and was galloping towards the Sunset Forest.

Sunset Forest, as one of the three soul beast forests in Douluo Continent, contains countless soul beasts and natural treasures. And Lu Yu's target is precisely some of the special existences among them.

"call……"

A gust of wind blew by, and Lu Yu appeared at the entrance of Sunset Forest. He looked at the dense forest in front of him, and a solemn look flashed in his eyes.

“I hope it goes well this time.”

Lu Yu whispered and then stepped into the forest.

……

In the sunset forest, the trees are towering and blocking out the sun. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves and falls on the ground, forming mottled light and shadows.

Lu Yu walked through the forest, his senses alert to his surroundings at all times. Although his strength was already extremely strong, he still had to be cautious in the soul beast forest.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Lu Yu paused, and his senses caught a special breath. This breath contained the power of ice and fire, which was exactly one of his goals on this trip - the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.

"found it!"

After a while, Lu Yu came to a special area. There was an open space here, and in the center of the open space, there was a strange spring. In the spring, the power of ice and fire intertwined, forming a unique scene.

"Is this the Ice and Fire Eyes?"

Lu Yu looked at the spring in front of him, with a flash of amazement in his eyes. He could feel that the spring contained extremely rich energy, which was of great help to cultivation.

"But there seems to be someone here."

Suddenly, Lu Yu frowned, and he sensed that there were several figures near the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire.

"Who is the one?"

Lu Yu was curious, and then he flashed and appeared near those figures.

When he saw the faces of those people clearly, he was slightly stunned, because those people were exactly the people he was familiar with - Dugu Bo and his granddaughter Dugu Yan.

"Senior Dugu, Dugu Yan?"

Lu Yu shouted in surprise.

Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan were also slightly stunned when they heard Lu Yu's voice, and then turned around.

"Oh? It's my friend Lu Yu." Dugu Bo smiled when he saw Lu Yu, "Why are you here?"

Lu Yu smiled and explained, "I came here to look for a soul beast that is suitable for my fourth soul ring. I also want to find some natural treasures to assist in my cultivation. I didn't expect to meet Senior and Dugu Yan here."

Dugu Bo heard this and nodded, "So that's how it is. However, this is my territory. If you want to look for soul beasts and natural treasures here, you have to get my consent."

Lu Yu was slightly startled when he heard this. Dugu Bo was extremely powerful and had a lonely personality. It was not easy to get something from him.

But Lu Yu was not afraid. He smiled and said, "Senior Dugu, I am only here to find something that will help me practice. I will not disturb you. Moreover, I believe you will not embarrass a junior like me."

Dugu Bo looked at Lu Yu, with a hint of admiration in his eyes. He could feel that Lu Yu's aura was more stable than before, and his strength had obviously improved. Moreover, Lu Yu's attitude also made him satisfied.

"Well, since you said so, I won't embarrass you." Dugu Bo smiled, and then changed the subject, "However, the soul beasts and natural treasures here are all my treasures. If you want to get them, you have to show some ability."

When Lu Yu heard this, a hint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes. He smiled and said, "Then please give me some advice, senior."

Dugu Bo laughed when he saw this, then he disappeared from the spot in a flash.

"Lu Yu, be careful!"

At this time, Dugu Yan suddenly shouted.

Hearing this, Lu Yu's heart trembled, and then he retreated violently. He saw a green poisonous mist coming towards him, which was Dugu Bo's Green Phosphorus Snake King Poison.

"Humph!"

Lu Yu snorted coldly, and then the soul power in his body surged, and a layer of golden light shield appeared in front of him, blocking the poisonous fog out.

"Something capable."

Dugu Bo's voice rang out in the poisonous fog, and then a green figure rushed out from the poisonous fog and attacked Lu Yu.

Lu Yu dodged Dugu Bo's attack and then he jumped up and attacked Dugu Bo.

The two men immediately started fighting fiercely in the open space, with fists whistling and soul power overflowing.
