Chapter 634: Prepare for Shadow Raid

The leading Soul Sage's eyes widened, and he shouted in disbelief, "How is this possible! How can a Soul King possess such combat power?!"

Xiao Wu stopped and stood beside a corpse. She shook her hands lightly and sneered, "In the killing field of hell, I have killed guys who are ten times stronger than you.

Want to steal the soul bone? Maybe in the next life!"

At this moment, a soul master took advantage of Xiao Wu's pause, a cunning flash in his eyes, and suddenly accelerated towards Ning Rongrong who was absorbing the soul bone. The long sword in his hand flashed with cold light, and he grinned: "The soul bone is mine!"

"court death!"

Lu Yu's voice was like thunder, and his figure disappeared instantly, leaving only a shadow.

The next moment, he appeared in front of the soul master. The long sword in his hand was not unsheathed, but with just a wave of the scabbard, he brought about a terrifying soul power fluctuation.

The soul master didn't even have time to react. He was hit by a huge hammer and flew backwards, hitting an ancient tree. The sound of his bones breaking was clearly audible, and he fainted instantly.

Lu Yu slowly turned around, his eyes coldly sweeping over the remaining soul masters around him. His voice was calm but filled with endless pressure: "Who else wants to try?"

The soul masters around looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear.

The speed and power of Lu Yu's attack just now far exceeded Xiao Wu's, and even faintly overwhelmed the momentum of the Soul Saint.

They finally realized that this seemingly young man was much more powerful than he appeared.

Several soul masters looked at each other, retreated one after another, and finally disappeared into the depths of the dense forest, not daring to wander around anymore.

Xiao Wu stuck out her tongue and smiled at Lu Yu, "Lu Yu, your attack was even more ruthless than mine! Now they probably won't even dare to think about taking soul bones."

Lu Yu smiled slightly, sheathed his sword, and returned his gaze to Ning Rongrong. He said in a deep voice, "Focus on protecting Rongrong. She should be almost done."

Time passed slowly, and two hours later, the soul power fluctuations around Ning Rongrong suddenly became stronger, and a powerful aura burst out from her body.

Her eyes suddenly opened, a brilliant light flashing in them. The sixth soul ring slowly condensed beneath her feet. It was a black, ten-thousand-year soul ring! She had successfully broken through to the 60th level of Soul Emperor! Ning Rongrong stood up, feeling the soul power filling her body. An excited smile appeared on her face: "Success! I finally broke through to the Soul Emperor!"

She turned to look at Lu Yu, her eyes full of gratitude, "Lu Yu, thank you for protecting me!"

Lu Yu smiled and nodded, saying gently: "Congratulations, Rongrong.

The power of the Soul Emperor is enough to take the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to a new level."

Ning Rongrong looked around, her eyes falling on the corpses on the ground. She was slightly startled: "This is... someone just came to steal the soul bones?"

Xiao Wu snorted, then put her hands on her hips and said, "A bunch of clueless guys, Lu Yu and I took care of them! Rongrong, just focus on your breakthrough. We can still handle these small fry."

Zhu Zhuqing stepped forward and said calmly, "Rongrong has made a breakthrough, and now we should prepare for my sixth soul ring.

Lu Yu, the target is the area in the east where soul beasts are found, right?"

Lu Yu nodded, looked towards the east, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, a soul beast over 20,000 years old, with both speed and strength, is suitable for Zhu Qing's martial soul.

Let's go, we can't stay here any longer."

The group of four packed up their luggage and quickly left the open space, heading towards the soul beast area east of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Along the way, Lu Yu's soul perception remained highly alert to ensure that there were no enemies following him.

In the dense forest, the roars of soul beasts rose and fell, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.

About half an hour later, everyone came to a large clearing in the forest.

Lu Yu stopped, looked around, and quickly locked onto a velociraptor.

This soul beast has a sturdy body, dark grey fur, and its aura indicates that it has cultivated for 21,000 years.

Lu Yu frowned and whispered, "It's a swift wolf. Its speed is good, but its age is a little low, not ideal."

Xiao Wu followed his gaze and curled her lips: "It's really not good enough. Zhu Qing's sixth spirit ring must be stronger."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly, her eyes calm: "Keep looking, the Xingdou Great Forest is so big, we can always find the right one."

Lu Yu was about to lead the team forward when his eyes suddenly fixed on a civet cat hiding in the shadow of a tree.

This soul beast has a slender body, fur as smooth as black jade, and moves almost silently. The fluctuations of its soul power show that it has been cultivating for 26,000 years.

A gleam flashed in Lu Yu's eyes, and he whispered: "Spiritual raccoon cat, 26,000 years old, extremely fast, and not weak in strength, suitable for Zhu Qing."

When Zhu Zhuqing heard this, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. Just as she was about to speak, a deafening roar suddenly came from a distance.

The roar was like rolling thunder, carrying with it powerful fluctuations of soul power, shaking the leaves around it rustling.

The civet cat was frightened and jumped into the dense forest in an instant, disappearing without a trace.

Lu Yu frowned, looking in the direction of the roar, and said in a deep voice: "This soul power fluctuation... is at least 50,000 years old. And judging by the sound, it seems to be fighting with a powerful human. Its aura is already a little unstable."

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes flashed with a gleam of light as she analyzed, "A fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast, angry and unwilling, must have been severely injured and on the verge of death.

Those who can make such a roar are probably defensive spirit beasts."

Ning Rongrong frowned and said, "A fifty thousand year old soul beast... wouldn't it be too risky for us to rob it?"

At this moment, an old voice rang out in Lu Yu's sea of ​​consciousness. It was the remnant soul of the Qilin that resided in his body: "Boy, this is an opportunity! That roaring sound is likely from the soul beast of the Xuanwu clan, which has extremely strong defense.

If you can absorb its spirit ring or spirit bone, your defense will be greatly improved! "

Lu Yu's heart moved, but then he frowned and whispered: "A fifty thousand year old soul beast is as powerful as a soul douluo. I am only a soul emperor now. If I go there rashly, I am afraid it will be dangerous."

The Qilin's remnant soul snorted, its tone filled with disdain. "What are you afraid of? You have me here. I can help you at a critical moment! Besides, the soul beast is seriously injured, and the human warriors may also be injured. Now is a good time to pick up the loose ends!"

Lu Yu was silent for a moment, then looked at Xiao Wu and the others, and said in a deep voice: "That roar is not simple, it might be a 50,000-year-old soul beast, and it must be seriously injured.

I want to go and take a look. If something is wrong, we will withdraw immediately."

Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong looked at each other, their eyes full of worry.

Zhu Zhuqing said in a deep voice: "Lu Yu, the depths of the Xingdou Great Forest are full of dangers. It is a battlefield for 50,000-year-old soul beasts, and there may be powerful Titled Douluo-level masters there.

Do we...really want to take the risk?"

Xiao Wu suddenly spoke up, her tone firm: "I'll go with Lu Yu! I'm very familiar with the Xingdou Great Forest, and I have some hidden cards, so it won't be that easy for anything to go wrong."

She paused, winked at Lu Yu, and smiled: "Lu Yu, didn't you say you were just going to take a look? If the situation is not right, we can just run away."

Lu Yu looked at Xiao Wu's confident smile, his heart warmed slightly, and he nodded: "Okay, let's go and take a look.

Zhuqing, Rongrong, you stay here. If there is any danger, contact us immediately via signal."

Ning Rongrong bit her lip and finally nodded: "Then be careful, don't try to be brave!"

Lu Yu and Xiao Wu looked at each other, then flashed and quickly rushed towards the direction where the roar came from.

Deep in the Star Forest, dense ancient trees blocked out the sun, the air was filled with the stench of blood and mud, and the ground was shaking slightly, as if the entire forest was humming.

Lu Yu stood on a high slope, looking coldly at the chaotic battle scene below.

The surrounding trees were uprooted, the ground was full of cracks, and dozens of human soul masters were fighting fiercely with a group of soul beasts.

The roars of soul beasts and the angry shouts of soul masters intertwined, and the light of soul skills flickered in the dim forest, like a gorgeous but cruel firework display.

"Brother Lu Yu, the soul beasts here are so ferocious!"

Ning Rongrong stood beside Lu Yu, her rosy cheeks slightly pale, and there was a hint of fear in her eyes.

Her spirit ring flickered slightly, and it was obvious that she was ready to amplify at any time.

Lu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on the center of the battlefield.

A huge dark gold terror claw bear was roaring loudly, and its right claw slammed towards a soul master.

The soul master didn't react in time, and was hit by the giant claw just when his soul skill was half condensed. He flew out like a kite with a broken string, and hit an ancient tree hard. Blood spurted out, and his breath was cut off instantly.

However, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was also exhausted. Its huge body shook a few times, and the fierce light in its eyes gradually dimmed. Finally, it fell to the ground with a bang, splashing a cloud of dust.

"What a powerful soul beast... It's willing to die and drag someone down with it."

Zhu Zhuqing whispered, her voice filled with a bit of awe, her slender figure slightly tensed, obviously shocked by the tragic scene.

Xiao Wu stood on the other side of Lu Yu, a complicated look flashing in her eyes.

She bit her lip and whispered, "This Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear has cultivated for at least 80,000 years. It fought back with all its might, probably because it realized it had no way to retreat.

Lu Yu, do we really want to collect the soul bones here?"

Lu Yu's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Soul bones are rare, and the soul bone of this Terrorclaw Bear will be of great use to us.

Time is running out, we have to act quickly before the other spirit masters react."

He paused, then turned to look at the four women behind him—Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ye Lingling—and said firmly, "You guys protect the surroundings. I'll go get the soul bone. Quick!"

The four women nodded and dispersed. Their spirit rings lit up as they observed their surroundings vigilantly.

Lu Yu's figure flashed like a black stream of light, and he quickly approached the corpse of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

He pressed his palm on the soul beast's head, and his soul power surged, quickly peeling off a piece of soul bone that was shining with dark golden light.

When Lu Yu got the soul bone, he felt the warmth with a hint of heavy pressure. His heart moved slightly. Just as he was about to put the soul bone away, he heard a rapid sound of breaking wind in his ears.

"Lu Yu! Leave your soul bones and I will spare your life!"

A low roar came from a distance, carrying a strong murderous intent.

Lu Yu suddenly looked up and saw six figures rushing out from the woods, their soul rings shining brightly.

The leader was a burly middle-aged man with seven spirit rings surrounding him, a Level 71 Spirit Sage! The other five were all Soul Emperors, their spirit rings flashing and emitting murderous auras.

"Trouble is coming."

Lu Yu frowned and whispered to the four girls, "Don't fight any longer, let's go!"

Xiao Wu and the others quickly gathered together. Lu Yu waved his hand, and his soul power swept up the four women, turning them into a stream of light and escaping into the depths of the forest.

Seeing this, the six soul masters sneered and unleashed their soul skills one after another, transforming into rays of light and chasing after them relentlessly.

"Lu Yu, you can't escape! Hand over your soul bone, and I can consider leaving your body intact!"

The Soul Saint's voice exploded like thunder, with a hint of ferocity.

Lu Yu snorted coldly, without even turning his head, but his pace became faster.

As he flew over, he whispered, "These people are quite powerful, especially the Soul Sage. His soul skills are likely to have a large-scale killing power.

"Rongrong, prepare the amplification. Zhuqing, you'll cover the rear. Lingling, be ready to heal. Xiaowu, pay attention to the surrounding spirit beasts."

"understand!"

The four girls responded in unison, working in perfect harmony, each using their own soul skills to protect the team.

At this moment, Lu Yu's heart suddenly shook, and a low and majestic voice sounded in his mind: "Boy, the situation is not good! There are abnormal fluctuations in the depths of the Star Dou Forest. I'm afraid a beast tide is coming. Leave quickly!"

Lu Yu's pupils shrank slightly. This was a warning from the remnant soul of the Qilin in his body.

He made a quick decision and said in a deep voice, "Speed ​​up and head east! Something might happen deep in the forest. We must leave as soon as possible!"

"Tide of beasts?"

Ning Rongrong's pretty face changed, and she exclaimed, "Brother Lu Yu, isn't the beast tide something that only happens once in a century? How could it appear so suddenly?"

"Maybe the hunting of those soul masters outside angered the soul beasts."

Xiao Wu gritted her teeth, a trace of worry flashing in her eyes. "The soul beasts deep in the Star Dou Forest are not to be trifled with, especially those that are over a hundred thousand years old..."

Before he could finish his words, the ground suddenly shook violently, as if the entire forest was roaring in anger.

From afar came bursts of low animal roars, like rolling thunder, which made people's eardrums hurt.

Lu Yu suddenly stopped and turned around to look. He saw the trees in the distance shaking violently, and countless soul beasts were rushing in like a tide, with dust flying everywhere, covering the sky and the sun.

"It's a beast tide! It really broke out!"

Ning Rongrong exclaimed, her voice trembling, "Brother Lu Yu, what should we do?"

"calm!"

Lu Yu said in a low voice, his eyes sweeping over the four women, "The beast tide is surging from the depths to the periphery. We should go east to avoid the main tide.

Rongrong, full amplification! Zhuqing, prepare for Shadow Strike, ready for sneak attacks at any time!

At this moment, the six pursuers also caught up.

The leading Soul Saint had a cold look in his eyes. He glanced at the beast tide in the distance and sneered, "Lu Yu, it seems you are unlucky and have encountered a beast tide! Hand over your soul bones, and I will consider taking you out together!"

Lu Yu's eyes flickered slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "The beast tide is coming, and you can't escape.

How about we work together to break out of the encirclement first, and then discuss the ownership of the soul bones?"

A hint of hesitation flashed across the Soul Sage's eyes, while the five Soul Emperors behind him frowned and whispered, "Brother, this kid is very cunning. I'm afraid this cooperation is a scam!"

"Shut up!"

The Soul Saint growled, his eyes fixed on Lu Yu. After a moment, he sneered, "Okay, I agree to cooperate! But if you dare to play tricks, I guarantee you'll be torn to pieces!"

Lu Yu smiled slightly and nodded, "Okay, then head east. There are fewer soul beasts there, so it's easier to break through.

You lead the way, and we'll cover the rear!"
