Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

In a certain area of ​​the Soul Oblivion Valley, a fierce battle is going on...

At this time, Mo Juren and his team members had already gathered together again, and around them were countless soul-eating black shadows.

The composition of these soul-eaters is extremely complex, covering almost all the ethnic groups in Fengyuan Continent. Of course, the largest number are all kinds of strange and bizarre wild beasts.

Moreover, compared to those encountered before, the soul-devouring creatures in front of them are not only more numerous and stronger, but also extremely intelligent, and know how to fight by taking advantage of the rich soul-devouring aura around them.

The crowd already had limited vision, and faced with this elusive and unstoppable soul-eating army, they suddenly became a little flustered.

Fortunately, everyone adjusted quickly, with Mo Juren coordinating the situation and everyone cooperating well with each other, they were able to fight the Soul-Devouring Army fairly well, and no problems would arise in the short term.

But everyone knew very well that the Soul Devouring Army was too numerous and quite powerful. If they couldn't find a way to deal with them, the outcome would be disastrous.

"This isn't a special area, how come so many Soul Devourers suddenly appeared?" Zhou Heng used his magic weapon to fight while looking anxiously at Lu Shan, who was speechless.
"If you don't know, how could I know? And according to the records, there aren't many Soul Devourers in the Soul Oblivion Valley. This is obviously not normal."

"Something must have happened in the Soul Annihilation Valley. The disappearance of Team C12 is probably related to it." Xue Rou expressed her guess and waved her hand to disperse an attacking Soul Devourer. Unexpectedly, the latter turned into countless air currents and drilled in all directions.

Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but sigh. At the beginning of the battle, she used the "Golden Cloud Net" as she did at the beginning to completely eliminate the attacking Devouring Spirits.

But as time went by, she simply gave up. The reason was simple: the cost outweighed the gain.

The Jinxia Net is an ancient treasure of the highest quality. Using it consumes a lot of energy. It is okay once or twice, but if it happens too many times, even her cultivation level of the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation cannot withstand it.

In this case, it would be better to simply disperse them. Although the opponent can absorb the surrounding soul-devouring energy to recover, it will also take a certain amount of time.

The key is that this method can minimize one's own consumption. As long as the defense circle set up by everyone is not broken, there will be no problem and it can last for a long time.

All the teammates around him chose this way of fighting, with the exception of Mo Juren in the center. The latter did not choose to go into battle himself, but released a special white snake.

No one knew what kind of monster that little snake was, but the strength it displayed was jaw-dropping. Whether it was attack, defense or speed, it was far beyond the reach of the other players present.

The little white snakes moved around and flashed from time to time, attacking the Soul-Eating Army at unimaginable speeds. It was precisely because of this that the defense circle built by everyone never had any problems.

The only pity is that the little white snake, like everyone else, can only disperse the soul-eater but cannot completely destroy it, otherwise the situation wouldn't be so troublesome now.

"Captain, what should we do?" Xue Rou hurriedly looked at Mo Juren. From the moment the Soul-Devouring Army appeared until now, the other party had always looked calm, without showing any sign of nervousness at all. This was also the main reason why everyone had persisted until now and had not panicked.

"No hurry, wait a little longer!" Mo Juren shook his head slightly. There were too many soul-devouring troops around. Even with him, the entire team could not be their match.

What's more crucial is that in the current situation, even if he wanted to break through, he couldn't do it. Maybe he could escape with his many trump cards, but the other team members would probably die.

Therefore, the best way is to figure out the whole story and find the real root, which may give you a chance to win in the end.

The appearance of this soul-devouring army is too strange. It is totally inconsistent with the records in the data and is definitely abnormal. There must be some unknown reasons behind it.

As for how to investigate, that was simple. As early as the moment he was surrounded by the Soul-Devouring Army, he immediately released the Heavenly Sword Ancestor. Considering the opponent's strength, it would not take long for him to get the news.

"Wait?" Everyone was a little stunned when they heard this, but they soon reacted one after another. Looking at the captain's situation, it was obvious that he had a way to deal with it!

For a moment, everyone's originally anxious hearts were slightly relieved.

He didn't have to wait too long, only about a quarter of an hour later, Mo Juren suddenly looked at a token he was holding tightly in his hand, and then information was transmitted to his sea of ​​consciousness.

In an instant, he, who had been calm all along, showed a look of surprise.

He immediately put away the token and then ordered:
"Everything is ready. Follow me to break out later. Cooperate with each other during the process and don't let anyone fall behind."

"Did the captain discover anything?" Xue Rou thought.

"We have indeed gained something, but I can't explain the details clearly. Just follow me and you may understand when you get there." Mo Juren shook his head slightly. The message from the Tiandao Patriarch was very brief. It only told him the specific location and asked him to break through. Nothing else was mentioned.

In this case, he naturally couldn't give an explanation and could only give an ambiguous reply.

"Place?" Everyone became more and more confused, and they all secretly speculated that the captain had never left, so how did he find this so-called place?
Fortunately, everyone knew very well that this was not the time to continue asking questions. As the captain said, breaking through immediately was the right thing to do.

At the same time, everyone was looking forward to it again. Everyone knew that the captain was very powerful and had many hidden cards. They didn't know what means he would use to get everyone away this time.

This soul-devouring army is no pushover and is very difficult to deal with. Ordinary means are simply unable to cause effective damage to it.

At this time, Mo Juren finally started to act.

To everyone's surprise, he still did not use any secret techniques or magic weapons, but instead recalled Xiaobai first, and then directly summoned an ice-blue fire dragon.

At first it was only a few feet in size, but it quickly grew to over a hundred feet, and its entire body was enveloped in blazing ice-blue flames.

The moment the giant dragon appeared, the temperature around it instantly dropped to the extreme. Everyone present was caught off guard and couldn't help but shiver.

The ice-blue dragon is naturally Qianlan Bingyan. Countless evolutions have already made its strength reach an extremely terrifying level, and the existence of the God Transformation level is completely unable to contend with it.

This was because Mo Juren deliberately controlled the energy of the Qianlan Ice Flame to avoid everyone. Otherwise, at such a close distance, everyone would not just shiver.

Just like the Soul-Devouring Army that was still attacking the surrounding area at this moment, they were all greatly affected, and their movements immediately became sluggish before they got within ten feet.

However, the Devouring Spirit has no physical form and its gathering and dispersal are invisible. Unless one is truly burned by flames, it has no life-threatening power.

And this was enough. As Mo Juren's mind moved, the ice-blue dragon immediately rushed towards a certain direction, and bursts of ice-blue flames continued to spew out of its mouth.

Wherever it passed, its force was unstoppable. All the soul-devouring spirits had no chance to transform into air currents the moment they came into contact with the flames, and were directly burned into nothingness.

Everyone followed the giant dragon closely and broke through to the front.

However, the Soul-Devouring Army was obviously unwilling to let them leave. They had no fear of life or death and swarmed in like crazy, trying to block their way.

Unfortunately, facing the burning of the dry blue ice flame, it was of no use. Under the leadership of the ice blue dragon, it only took a moment for everyone to finally break out of the encirclement of the soul-devouring army, and then continued to fly forward at a high speed while being pursued by the soul-devouring army.

But at this moment, it was obviously impossible for the other party to catch up.

What was surprising was that they would still encounter other Soul Devourers from time to time during the flight. Although they did not gather into a large army, there were still quite a few of them.

Fortunately, these soul-eating creatures are each forming their own formations, so they don't cause too much trouble.

After traveling for nearly half a day, they arrived above a mountain range with crisscrossing connections.

At this time, everyone had already stopped, but all their eyes were attracted by a huge crack in the ground that was hundreds of feet in size at the bottom of a valley below.

"That's..." Everyone was stunned. According to the map, wasn't this area the location of the Purifying Spirit Spring? However, at this moment, there was no trace of the Purifying Spirit Spring. Only a huge crack in the ground was left, like the open mouth of a giant beast.

What was even more shocking was that black shadows would fly out from the crack from time to time, and they were undoubtedly the Soul Eaters.

"This...what on earth is going on?" Everyone was horrified, and they instantly understood in their hearts that all the soul-eating problems they had encountered before were caused by this?

Where does that crack in the ground lead to? How could there be such a large number of Devouring Souls?
Everyone was at a loss for a moment and could only look at Mo Juren. As the captain of the team, he was the real backbone.

Feeling the gazes of the crowd, Mo Juren did not respond, but waited patiently again.

After about a moment, suddenly, another black shadow shot out from the crack in the ground. Its speed was far beyond the speed of those previous soul-devouring shadows.

In the blink of an eye, the black shadow appeared in front of him.

This scared everyone. They thought it was a soul-eater attacking. They were about to take action, but Mo Juren raised his hand to stop them.

Only then did everyone realize that it was not a soul-eater at all, but a strange old man. However, he seemed to have no entity, just a soul. More importantly, there was no sense of any cultivation at all.

"Senior, have you discovered anything?" Mo Juren ignored everyone's shock and asked immediately. As soon as he asked this, everyone around him was stunned again.

What the hell is a senior?

Also, who is this old man?

When did you come to the Soul Valley and why do you know the captain?

Thinking about the captain's previous behavior, it seemed that he had known about the existence of this old man for a long time!
In a flash, countless questions arose in everyone's mind.

"That crack in the ground leads to an unknown world. It should be a secret place. I have only explored a small area, but I can confirm that its area is not small."

"A secret realm?" Mo Juren nodded slightly. He had already guessed it just now, and it seemed that he guessed it correctly.
"What's the situation inside? It shouldn't be dangerous, right?"

"It's not clear yet. After all, the scope of my exploration is limited. Only when I go deeper into it, I may find something." The Tiandao Patriarch shook his head slightly and then asked,
"Well, are you planning to go in?"

"Since we are here, we must go in and take a look." Having said this, Mo Juren immediately looked at the people around him.
"You have all heard the situation. It is a secret place inside, but it is uncertain whether it is dangerous. You can consider it on your own. Are you willing to follow me in?"

"Of course we are willing." Everyone made the decision without any hesitation. What a joke! This is a secret realm. How could they miss this opportunity that they couldn't even ask for?

As for danger, isn't that normal? Which secret realm exploration would be smooth sailing? Besides, this is the Soul Valley. It is more dangerous to stay outside. It is safest to follow the captain.

"In that case, let's set off." Seeing that no one objected, Mo Juren no longer hesitated and immediately flew rapidly into the valley.

The Tiandao Patriarch and everyone else followed closely behind, but in a flash, they all dived into the cracks in the ground and disappeared.

……

"Are there too many Soul Devourers in this Soul-Annihilation Valley?" Somewhere in the valley, a Yaksha man waved his hand and sent out a giant illusory palm, which directly smashed dozens of black shadows into nothingness.

“Not only are there large numbers, but their strength is also stronger than what is recorded in the data. What is particularly crucial is that the composition of these soul-eaters is too complex, almost covering all races on the Fengyuan Continent, and my Yaksha tribe is no exception.” The beautiful woman looked directly to the front, where there was a huge black shadow that was more than ten feet high. From the outline, it can be concluded that he must have been a Yaksha tribe member when he was alive.

"It seems that some unknown changes have really happened here. It's a pity that we can't contact that guy Akagi. He should know what happened?" The Yaksha man sighed.

While the two were communicating, they did not forget to take action. In a short while, they had completely wiped out hundreds of Soul Devourers of different levels around them.

As for the hundreds of soul beads scattered on the ground after the massacre, the two of them were too lazy to even look at them.

After doing all this with ease, the two of them did not delay and continued to move forward. As they went deeper, the number of soul-eaters increased.

For a moment, the Yaksha man and the beautiful woman felt even more heavy-hearted...

……

"Senior, what you mean is that the countless soul-devouring creatures outside seem to have escaped from here?" Inside the secret realm, while Mo Juren led everyone forward, he was also constantly communicating with the Tiandao ancestor who had drilled into his dantian.

In fact, he had anticipated this matter a long time ago, and now when he heard it again, there was no big ripple in his heart.

It has to be said that the environment inside this secret realm can be completely described as hell. It is so terrible. The sky and the earth are filled with endless soul-devouring air. There is no grass growing on the ground. It is a complete desolate place.

There are also a huge number of soul-eating creatures inside, and those that escaped before are just a drop in the bucket compared to them.

This is simply entering the Soul Devouring's base camp, and the number is so huge, doesn't it mean that the possibility of a strong person being born is higher?

The area of ​​the secret realm is quite large. Even though Mo Juren and his party ran for several days, they could not even find the edge of it.

Another thing is resources. There is no grass in this secret realm, so there is naturally no possibility of any magical medicine. However, there are some special and precious minerals, which are easier to obtain.

"Wait, stop immediately!" Just as Mo Juren was thinking, a low voice suddenly sounded, and it was naturally the ancestor of Tiandao.

Apparently, he had noticed something, and his tone suddenly became extremely serious. (End of this chapter)
