Chapter 200 An Opportunity Appears!
The Soul Emperor retrieved the Myriad Soul Banner, his brows furrowing slightly.
This monster has such strong vitality; it's quite difficult to kill.
Everyone stared in silence at the pools of green blood on the ground.
They had initially thought these creatures were rock lifeforms, but now it seemed impossible to determine what they actually were.
But they didn't have time to think about this problem.
As the giant iron serpent roared, the surrounding beasts also went berserk!
Roar—!
Hiss—!
Awooo—!!
Countless strange beasts roared simultaneously, launching indiscriminate attacks on Gu Yuan, Yan Jin, and the others!
"Not good! Retreat immediately!"
"Help!"
Some people screamed and tried to escape, regretting that they had come to this horrible place.
Those who retreat will die!
Gu Yuan killed several fleeing and disruptive soldiers with a single palm strike, and roared:
"Opportunity lies ahead! Everyone, follow me and wipe out these monsters!"
Seeing this situation, everyone knew that retreating meant certain death, while charging forward might offer a glimmer of hope.
There was no other way but to bite the bullet and go for it!
The battle erupted instantly!
These strange beasts are much more difficult to deal with than those strange flames.
Not only is it highly intelligent, but it also possesses a variety of bizarre fighting skills!
Some spewed flames, some manipulated lava, and some charged straight into the crowd, rampaging through everything in their path!
Screams echoed everywhere, and blood and flesh flew everywhere!
The battle between the Soul Emperor and the giant black iron serpent was extremely intense and fierce, with magma erupting, strange fire enveloping, and black mist swirling, making the sky and earth darken!
The battle between Gu Yuan and his companions and the remaining strange beasts resulted in heavy casualties.
Fortunately, they outnumbered the beasts, and the beasts were so large that they seemed cumbersome, which gave them an opportunity to take advantage of the situation!
"Huh? What's this?"
During the fierce battle, an elder of the Yan clan suddenly discovered a fiery red bead in the corpse of the strange beast.
It is about the size of a fist, crystal clear, and emits a warm red glow.
He held it in his hand.
Instantly, I felt the fire-attribute battle qi within my body become even purer!
The originally raging flames have become docile!
"This should be a magic core similar to that of the magical beast race."
Elder Yao Wangui of the Medicine Clan also found one, and after careful observation, he said:
"But what makes it even more unique is likely due to the special environment here. It can increase the control over fire-attribute battle qi and strengthen the meridians..."
He paused, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes:
"Even if we use it as a heart-protecting pill to devour the strange fire, it wouldn't be a bad idea!"
Hearing this, everyone felt a surge of excitement.
They had collected quite a few strange flames before, but without thorough preparation, no one dared to easily devour and refine them.
But with this fire pill...
Everyone looked at Yao Dan, the patriarch of the Medicine Clan.
Yao Dan stepped forward, examined it carefully, and slowly nodded:
"This fire pill is indeed remarkably effective, at least comparable to a seventh-grade pill, or even better!"
boom--!
The crowd erupted instantly!
"This is truly a godsend!"
"We've struck it rich! We've struck it rich!"
The people's eyes no longer looked at the strange beasts with fear, but with a gleam!
It's like seeing walking pills!
Tang Zhen, the Valley Master of Burning Flame Valley, who was in the crowd, was also excited when he heard these words.
These strange beasts live in this special environment, and the inner cores they produce have a magical effect on fire-attribute spiritual power...
Perhaps, this can help heal the injuries of the Supreme Elder, Fire Cloud Ancestor!
When Burning Flame Valley helped the Xiao Clan fight against the Soul Clan, they suffered heavy casualties. Old Ancestor Fire Cloud was also seriously injured by Soul Emperor and has not yet recovered.
He sought help from countless alchemists, but none of them could help him.
After joining the Soul Emperor's side,
Xiao Xuan, upon learning of the plight of his old friend's descendants, wanted to lend a helping hand.
But as one of the main souls of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner,
Without permission, I couldn't stray too far from the Soul Emperor, and I couldn't get away at the time.
Just as I had some free time, the Soul Emperor and Emperor Pill invaded Douluo Continent, which delayed me again.
Now...
Tang Zhen clenched his fists, his eyes burning with fighting spirit as he looked at the strange beasts.
Encouraged by the fire pill,
The crowd, who had initially been fearful, suddenly became incredibly excited, as if they had been injected with adrenaline.
They all transformed into Super Saiyans, charging forward fearlessly!
"kill--!!"
"The strange fire is mine! The fire core is mine too!!"
Various fighting techniques emerged one after another, and colorful lights exploded in the underground world, with deafening booms!
With the leader of the giant black iron serpents killed by the Soul Emperor in one blow, the battle finally came to an end.
The Soul Emperor reached out and pulled out a golden-red fire pill from the giant snake's corpse, which landed in his palm.
The fire pill was crystal clear.
It emitted a scorching light, illuminating half of the battlefield.
He casually put the Fire Pill into his pocket and waved the Myriad Souls Banner in his hand!
Waaaaah—!
Xiao Xuan and the others, who had been trapped inside the banner, reappeared!
But at this moment, their eyes were bloodshot, they looked fierce and menacing, and their bodies were shrouded in a strong aura of malevolence, making them completely different from before!
As soon as they appeared, they were like tigers released from their cages, charging straight into the battlefield!
The Soul Emperor stood with his hands behind his back.
Standing on high ground, he would occasionally deliver a follow-up slap.
With each strike, a strange beast perished.
Hundreds of strange beasts, comparable to high-level Dou Sheng, were quickly wiped out.
"keep going!"
Subsequently, they encountered several more waves of strange beasts.
Each battle was fierce, with many casualties on both sides, but neither side stopped.
All the survivors were all smiles and had reaped a great harvest.
"Haha! Strange Flames! There are very few recorded ones! I got more than a dozen this time!"
"I also got several fire pills! I'll absorb them when I get back, and the rest will be family heirlooms!"
"Look at you, so spineless!"
"There might be even more treasures waiting for us inside!"
Everyone was overjoyed and dreamed about the future.
However, Gu Yuan and his group did not let their guard down.
Experience shows that the deeper you go, the more dangerous it becomes.
It's clearly abnormal that we haven't encountered any real danger for so long.
Either they have already passed the most dangerous area, or... danger is lurking in the shadows.
Just thinking—
They both frowned at the same time.
Waves of energy emanated from ahead, and a powerful aura wafted in from afar.
Unlike the previous strange fire,
It doesn't resemble a strange beast; rather, it's extremely similar to the cultivators in the Doupo world.
"Is there anyone else?"
Gu Yuan and his men dared not let their guard down, adopting a defensive posture and advancing slowly.
Soon, they saw it clearly—
It is a human being.
They stood densely packed in front, arrayed as if guarding something.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but those with a keen mind became even more vigilant.
Because they sensed something was off about this group of people.
Moreover, their clothes were old and tattered, as if they had been ravaged by the long years.
"Hun Dai?!"
An elder of the Medicine Clan suddenly cried out in alarm, pointing at an old woman in black robes at the front, his voice trembling:
"You are Soul Dai of the Soul Clan! Didn't you perish in the Pure Lotus Demon Flame Space a thousand years ago?!"
These words seemed to ignite a chain reaction.
"Elder Tingfeng?!"
"The Saint of Liyue?!"
"This is...this is my grandfather!"
