Xiao Yi's slightly anxious voice came from not far ahead.

Lu Yuan turned his head to look at the sound.

Sure enough, a monster the size of a large truck was seen running towards them at an extremely fast speed.

To be more precise.

The opponent was attracted by the rich spiritual power emitted when the red phosphorus broke through, and wanted to take the opportunity to devour the red phosphorus to increase its own strength.

The goal is to achieve a breakthrough in the final, crucial stage of red phosphorus production.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan turned to look at the Crimson Phosphorus, which was doing its best to resist the lightning, and felt a chill in his heart.

"Red phosphorus is at a critical stage of its breakthrough, and it absolutely cannot be disturbed at this time!"

As he spoke.

The Thousand-Patterned Blade, shimmering with a faint light, appeared in Lu Yuan's hand.

"Chiyu and Lingye continued to keep watch on their surroundings."

"Little Yi, let's go!"

Without hesitation, Lu Yuan issued a series of orders, then picked up the Thousand-Patterned Blade and took the lead towards the rapidly approaching monster.

"Little Yi, use a buff skill on me!"

"Eee!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of faint lights shone from Lu Yuan's body, enveloping him.

Then Lu Yuan bowed and slightly bent his knees.

He was poised to launch, like a slingshot ready to fire.

at the same time.

The approaching monster was completely unaware of the danger that awaited it, and continued its rapid advance under the attraction of the spiritual energy emanating from the red phosphorus.

Just as it entered a range of only ten meters from the red phosphorus, a clear, cold voice came from the ground.

"Sword Drawing Technique!"

Clang—!

A cold glint flashed.

The beast, which was baring its fangs and claws in excitement just a second ago, suddenly widened its eyes, and a thin, thread-like cut appeared out of nowhere on its neck.

"Ha!"

The monster let out a low, labored roar, then slowly collapsed to the ground.

Yu Guangzhong caught a glimpse of Lu Yuan standing in front of him, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

Humans?!

It was this seemingly insignificant human who killed him?!

Even as it lay lifeless on the ground, it didn't realize how it had been killed.

Lu Yuan stood in front of it, his expression indifferent as he flicked the bloodstains off the Thousand Pattern Blade and slowly sheathed it.

He just used his full strength to unleash his sword-drawing technique without holding back at all.

He simply dared not be careless.

Since this demonic beast was attracted by the spiritual energy emitted by the red phosphorus, other demonic beasts nearby must have sensed it as well, and are very likely rushing toward them as well.

Most importantly.

He wasn't sure if there were any other high-level monsters around.

If a high-level Illusion God-level demonic beast appears at this time, their situation will become extremely dangerous.

Therefore, in order to avoid being surrounded and attacked, he must take the initiative and eliminate all possible threats as soon as possible!

Lu Yuan's expression gradually turned ruthless.

It was at this moment.

Suddenly, the roars of monstrous beasts echoed from afar.

"roar--!"

Lu Yuan immediately looked in the direction of the sound.

Then they saw one monster after another appearing from nowhere in the distance, rushing towards them in groups.

Smoke and sand filled the sky.

The once lush green forest was destroyed, as if it had been hit by a sandstorm.

"Holy crap?!"

Even though he was mentally prepared, Lu Yuan couldn't help but swear.

But no one had ever told him that beast tamers would encounter such a scene when undergoing the Nirvana Tribulation!

It's almost as bad as the beast tide that broke out in Yandu back then!

This size is probably hard for him and the three little ones to maintain!

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan turned around and glanced at the red phosphorus that was still fighting against the lightning.

A barrier of rock surrounded it, helping it to resist the lightning, but the lightning was so powerful that the two sides were deadlocked.

"It looks like the red phosphorus will need some more time." Lu Yuan's expression gradually became serious. "In that case, we have no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it."

Realizing the current situation, Lu Yuan quickly thought through the situation and made a decision in the blink of an eye.

"Lingye, you are in charge of guarding the southeast and north directions."

"Akabane, go up in the sky to observe the battle and provide support for the attack."

"Xiao Yi stayed by Chi Lin's side, providing logistical support such as buffs and healing from the rear."

After assigning their respective duties, Lu Yuan, holding the Thousand-Patterned Blade, stood in the northwest direction of Crimson Phosphorus.

At the same time, Su Ren was also released from the space.

"roar--!"

Roars, louder and louder, came from all directions, and the entire forest trembled at the sound.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but clench the Thousand-Patterned Blade in his hand.

"This battle will be a good opportunity to test my current strength."

The words had barely left his mouth.

A gust of wind suddenly came from behind.

Lu Yuan reacted very quickly to dodge, and a brown monkey suddenly fell from the spot where he had just been standing.

"Squeak!"

The brown monkey bared its teeth at Lu Yuan, its eyes wide as if in a show of defiance.

But Lu Yuan completely ignored it.

With just a slight push from his feet, he shot out like a cannonball.

Immediately afterwards, a cold glint flashed.

Before the menacing brown monkey could even react, Lu Yuan had already chopped off its head.

Lu Yuan's ruthless and decisive actions sent a chill down the spines of the monsters present, who all felt a terrifying aura.

Why does this human seem even more terrifying than a high-level demonic beast?

However.

Faced with the allure of the spiritual power of a god-level beast, desire took over the minds of these monsters, successfully overriding their remaining rationality. After only a slight pause, they once again recklessly charged towards the Crimson Phosphorus behind Lu Yuan.

Seeing that the monsters had completely gone mad, Lu Yuan stopped holding back and unleashed his full power.

He appeared and disappeared among the many demonic beasts like a phantom.

As Lu Yuan swung his Thousand-Patterned Blade, which emitted a faint glow, each swing of his hand took the life of a demon beast.

He swiftly moved in front of a five-meter-tall giant bear, and before the bear could swing its fist, which was almost as big as a human, he slashed its chest with his knife, leaving a deep and painful wound!

The giant bear crashed to the ground.

The Thousand-Patterned Blade emitted a faint light, and a new emblem was added to its blade.

"I've already collected five hundred emblems. If only I could collect the remaining five hundred in this secret realm!"

Looking at the Thousand-Patterned Blade in his hand, which faintly emitted a light, Lu Yuan felt his fighting spirit soar.

Immediately, he raised his hand and brought down the knife.

Several Celestial-level demonic beasts were instantly killed!

This was a level of strength that Lu Yuan had never shown to others before.

After killing several demonic beasts, the other demonic beasts finally began to realize that something was wrong. The human in front of them, who was as small as an ant, seemed to be completely different from what they had imagined.

Amidst the roar.

Endless monster skills were unleashed upon Lu Yuan.

All the demonic beasts focused their attention on Lu Yuan and launched attacks on him one after another!

Fireballs, wind blades, ice blades, boulders...

Countless attacks of various attributes assaulted Lu Yuan, attempting to destroy him, but Lu Yuan remained unmoved, coldly watching the world-destroying attacks rush towards him, while he simply slowly raised his right hand.

Just as he was preparing to launch a defensive counterattack, a deafening roar came from behind him.

"roar--!"
