Chapter 465: This guardian spirit beast is really troublesome

The four watched as the freed bodies floated up lightly.

It can be seen that the guardian spirit beast and the mechanism pit also hide a more mysterious power.

"This guardian spirit beast is really troublesome! I finally understand the danger and peculiarity of the legendary Fallen Star Mine."

King Qi let out a long breath, looked at Lu Yuan, full of admiration.

Lu Yuan smiled faintly, his heart brimming with confidence.

He understood that deeper in the Fallen Star Mine lay even more astonishing secrets waiting for them to uncover. Lu Yuan gazed at the three treasures before him, his heart filled with an indescribable shock.

This was almost the most astonishing discovery they had made since entering the Fallen Star Mine.

The Void Starlight Sword hovered in midair, emanating boundless power.

Intricately carved with mysterious runes, each rune flowed with stellar power.

Lu Yuan could feel that this divine weapon contained immense and vast power, as if it could tear through spacetime and bring one into the Void Realm.

The Return Origin Bell hovered silently beside the Void Starlight Sword.

It exuded a lively and tranquil aura, as if it could calm inner turmoil and bring peace and comfort.

Lu Yuan stared at this mysterious bell, and a sense of longing welled up in his heart.

The Thousand Tribulations Dragon Ring was carved with a dragon pattern using sculptural artistry.

The dragon coiled upon the ring, and the whole pattern seemed to exude a mysterious and powerful aura.

Lu Yuan felt that this ring brought him not merely decoration, but a symbol of power.

Each of these three treasures possessed its own wonder, leaving Lu Yuan in awe.

He knew well that these treasures could provide tremendous aid for their current situation.

Lu Yuan took the Thousand Tribulations Dragon Ring, feeling the immense power it contained.

He decided to wear it on his wrist, but the moment he slipped the ring onto his hand, a sudden sharp pain shot through.

Lu Yuan's face changed slightly, yet he did not give up.

He steadfastly endured the piercing pain, gradually adapting and subduing the power within the ring.

Once he mastered the Thousand Tribulations Dragon Ring, his whole body exuded an unparalleled aura.

Now he felt his power had reached a new height.

"These treasures are truly miraculous."

Lu Yuan, after putting on the Thousand Tribulations Dragon Ring, smiled and said, "I believe they will surely give us strong help in overcoming our present predicament."

Lu Yuan gazed into the distant horizon and took a deep breath.

He bore the responsibility, wisdom, and courage of himself and his team, knowing the challenges they faced were not merely a guardian spirit beast and a few mechanism traps. Lu Yuan, wearing the power of the Thousand Tribulations Dragon Ring, felt a mighty energy surging within his body.

He lightly gripped the Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword, ready to face the upcoming challenges alongside his team.

"We must leave this place at once." Lu Yuan said to Su Liyan and King Qi, "Can you open an exit?"

Su Liyan and King Qi exchanged a glance and nodded in tacit understanding.

The two worked closely together, beginning to dismantle the mechanisms and traps all around.

The Cold Jade Ice Shard in Su Liyan's hand gleamed with a azure light, transforming into an Ice Crystal Long Whip that sliced down from the air.

As the Ice Crystal Long Whip swayed, a secret door slowly opened.

However, as the exit gradually appeared, a mysterious person suddenly emerged from the dark chamber.

The mysterious person wore black clothes, with a black veil covering their face.

He raised the black staff in his hand, and the staff exuded a strong evil aura.

"Do you think you can escape?"

The mysterious person's voice carried a sinister laugh: "This is my territory; I will absolutely not allow you to leave."

Su Liyan and King Qi were both astonished and furious; they had not expected to encounter such an attack while trying to escape their predicament.

They reacted quickly, preparing to face the mysterious person's attack.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking our escape?" Su Liyan demanded, gritting her teeth.

"Hahaha! Knowing who I am is meaningless."

The mysterious person sneered, "Leave me your final memories!"

The mysterious person waved the black staff, and instantly a mass of darkness was woven forth.

Within the darkness lay a potent demonic energy, forming a huge crimson shadow that lunged at Su Liyan and King Qi.

Su Liyan gripped the Ice Crystal Long Whip tightly, and icy power instantly enveloped her whole body.

She swung the whip at the crimson shadow, and frost condensed in the air into a huge ice cone.

At the same time, King Qi drew the Demon-Breaking Golden Wheel from his hand; the wheel merged into his palm, radiating brilliant golden light.

He surged forward with thunderous force and fiercely struck the darkness-woven shadow.

The clash of evil and justice stirred up a violent energy surge in the dark chamber.

But the mysterious person had not expected Su Liyan and King Qi to be so strong; they drove him back.

"Now!" Lu Yuan shouted, and everyone rushed toward the opened secret door.

But just as they were about to step out of the secret door, the mysterious person launched another attack.

The dark chamber filled with an oppressive and terrifying aura; the mysterious person again waved the black staff, releasing a stronger and more evil attack spell.

This time, he seemed determined to trap Lu Yuan and the others here.

Unwilling to linger with the mysterious person, everyone surged forward with all their might toward the secret door.

King Qi used the Demon-Breaking Golden Wheel to cut through the mechanism trap ahead and blocked the mysterious person's final attack.

Lu Yuan, Su Liyan, King Qi, and Gu Qingwan finally broke through the boundary of the dark chamber, escaping the mysterious person's pursuit.

They had no time to look back, already panting as they arrived in a new chamber.

The mysterious person was forced to give up the pursuit, glumly watching the four disappear from sight.

His expression grew even darker, his heart filled with anger and jealousy.

Lu Yuan stared at the secret door that had just been escaped, thinking with relief: "We succeeded!"

"The next challenge lies ahead; I will personally destroy this evil sect." The crowd hurried back to South Heaven Divine Ridge in the Xiuzhen Jie, their hearts filled with apprehension for the impending challenge.

They hoped the Supreme Dao Ancestor could defeat the Black Prison Venerable and save the Xiuzhen Jie from peril.

After prolonged travel, Lu Yuan and the others felt somewhat weary, but facing such a formidable foe as the Black Prison Venerable, they knew now was not the time to retreat.

Compared to before, the scene has shifted to the secret realm of South Heaven Divine Ridge, where the environment is perilous and extremely dangerous.

When Lu Yuan and the others stepped into the hidden cavern, an oppressive aura washed over them.

The Black Prison Venerable stood before them, emanating an irresistible, unbreakable pressure.

His gaze was cold and horrifying, as if it could see through everyone's innermost thoughts.

"Who are you?" the Black Prison Venerable asked in a low voice, "How dare you intrude into my Black Prison Hall!"

Lu Yuan watched his companions' slightly trembling figures, showing no fear or retreat. (End of chapter)
