Chapter 372

Whoosh—

Several streaks of flowing light sliced past.

In the blood mist, several huge strange beasts froze, then slowly split in half from the middle.

These Yuanxi creatures are nothing special.

Liuyan folded his fan, standing in the canyon beside the Yuanxi entrance, his eyes casually scanning the surroundings.

Behind Liuyan, besides Ranqingmo and Gongyuande, there were three Martial Lord Realm officers who had taken the escort mission to protect Ranqingmo.

I thought the Yuanxi was as dangerous as hell, but now it seems no different from the Huangshen Forest—just small beasts that can be killed with a wave of the hand. Reading books.

Gongyuande's expression was also quite relaxed, as if he were on vacation here.

He raised his head to glance at the barrier Liuyan created with his mental power, and praised without a trace: 'Brother Liu, it's all thanks to you, a mental Talent Endowed, that the greatest threat, the red mist, has been kept outside.'

Liuyan wasn't modest either, laughing: 'We mental Talent Endowed are the bane of this blood mist. Hey, Ranqingmo sis, you better stay close to me; if you go far, my mental power won't reach you.'

Ranqingmo remained silent, her gaze deep and clear as she looked into the depths of the blood mist.

Seeing Ranqingmo ignore him, Liuyan gave a hehe smile, actively ran to her side, taking on the role of a bodyguard.

'Brother Gong, you go ahead.'

As soon as Liuyan entered the Yuanxi, he felt as if he were on his home turf, and actually began ordering Gongyuande around.

Gongyuande frowned slightly, having to rely on the other's mental power for protection in the Yuanxi, and didn't say much more.

He left the group, walking ahead, and said as he walked: 'I heard Lu Jing is also a mental Talent Endowed; if even this blood mist can't be blocked, that would be pretty weak, far inferior to Brother Liu's abundant mental power.'

'Whether he can block it or not, we'll find out soon; but if he dies here, it's doubtful even a corpse would remain.'

Liuyan looked at the few Yuanxi strange beasts he had just killed; in just a moment, they were completely gnawed clean by some mouse-sized small creatures.

'Let's go, let's explore inside a bit.'

The six of them walked along the canyon deeper in.

After advancing for a while, several people arrived at the place where Lu Jing had slain the wolf-shaped monster.

The corpses piled like mountains had vanished; only faint meat scraps and blood stains could be seen on the ground, and the air was filled with a pungent bloody smell.

'This place seems to have undergone a fierce battle; look over there.'

Gongyuande, being forward, saw more clearly; he pointed to a sharpened mountaintop and said: 'The ridge should have been sliced off by a sharp blade; I don't know if it was left by Lu Jing and them.'

'That's right; my friend was in the first batch of explorers, and he told me that Lu Jing, the General Star, once slaughtered a large swath of strange beasts with a single slash not far from the entrance.'

An officer carrying out the escort mission said.

Before accepting the mission, he deliberately asked his friend, and only after learning about the situation inside the Yuanxi did he boldly take on the task.

According to his friend's description, after entering the Yuanxi, they basically didn't need to act; Lu Jing alone eliminated all dangers.

It could be said they just clung to his thigh the whole way and reaped rich rewards.

The officer thought of this, glanced at Liuyan ahead, and thought this team also had a thigh to cling to, just not knowing how thick it is. Reading books.

'Being able to slash like that, Lu Jing still has some strength......'

Liuyan gently touched the crack in the mountain, feeling the residual blade intent from above.

Even after so much time, there still lingered a sharp aura.

Liuyan couldn't help but pray in his heart, hoping Lu Jing had already died in the Yuanxi.

As the group gradually went deeper, the number of strange beasts also increased.

Even many strange beasts approaching Martial Lord Realm appeared.

Liuyan put away his arrogant demeanor and, together with Gongyuande and the others, began to fight the horde of strange beasts.

'Damn, where did all these strange beasts suddenly come from?'

Liuyan cursed.

'I don't know; maybe it's because the strange beasts at the entrance were wiped out by Lu Jing and them, giving us an illusion!'

Gongyuande slashed with one blade, cutting the strange beast in front of him in half.

Liuyan also realized this, and his expression grew increasingly grim.

In the melee, a extremely fast strange beast lunged at him, leaving a deep wound at his waist that exposed bone.

Liuyan glanced at Ranqingmo, who was also fighting; seeing she hadn't noticed him, he immediately retreated to the protective circle, took out a healing Dan Medicine, and swallowed it.

Just as Liuyan was swimming, an ape-shaped strange beast whose size was obviously much larger charged at the group.

As the ape-shaped strange beast ran, the ground kept trembling, like a small hill.

'Be careful, this should be a strange beast lord!'

Someone shouted a reminder: 'Fall back quickly, fight while retreating!'

Clang—

A blue sword light sliced through space, and the spreading sword intent instantly enveloped the entire battlefield.

Ranqingmo turned into a pale blue silhouette, not retreating but advancing, moving forward at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

Boom—

The sword intent crisscrossed, as if an earthquake had occurred; nearby cliffs faintly trembled.

Everyone looked at the constantly flickering silhouette.

Thud—

A huge sound came, and the ape-shaped strange beast's figure heavily smashed onto the clearing cleared by the battle's aftermath.

The powerful impact instantly kicked up flying sand and stones, dust rising everywhere!

After the dust settled.

Everyone's pupils contracted slightly, seeing a giant ape head over ten meters tall.

Against the backdrop of the blood mist, atop the ferocious head.

A graceful figure stood with sword hanging down, the three thousand strands of flowing blue hair behind swaying gently in the wind........

"How strong!"

"Is this Ranqingmo's strength?"

Liuyan and Gongyuande sucked in a breath of cold air, their eyes widened.

Before, they had only heard that Ranqingmo was the strongest of the younger generation, but they had never seen her make a move.

That giant ape just now had at least the strength of a mid-stage Martial Lord Realm, yet Ranqingmo easily beheaded it.

Most importantly, while possessing great strength, her appearance and figure were flawless.

As the bloody breeze lifted the scattered blue strands before Ranqingmo's forehead, her flawless, exquisite face could be faintly seen.

Not only Liuyan, but everyone was stunned.

A single glance felt like an eternity.

When everyone came to their senses, Ranqingmo's figure flickered and she had already returned to the group.

"Let's continue."

The same cold voice came.

"Ranqingmo, you're not hurt, are you?"

Gongyuande stepped up to Ranqingmo's side and asked with concern.

Ranqingmo glanced at him, said nothing, and silently continued forward.

"Wait, wait!"

Liuyan rushed forward to block in front of Ranqingmo, "Ranqingmo, I know you're strong, but there's nothing you can do against the blood mist either; stay behind me, I'll protect you."

The three officers behind watched Liuyan and Gongyuande constantly flatter, exchanged a glance, and a hint of solemnity crossed their faces.

"I don't know what's wrong, suddenly I have a feeling of unease......"
