If Ye Feng hadn't reacted quickly enough, they would definitely have been attacked by these suddenly appearing spikes by now.

Although the night wind is not afraid of these sharp spikes, Lu Qianlan will most likely get hurt.

The night wind in the air circulated the Dragon Emperor's true energy, and his eyes instantly turned into golden-red vertical pupils.

Looking at the ground, Ye Feng said coldly, "Hidden underground is a demonic beast that can burrow underground. The beast resembles a lizard, with a carapace on its back covered with many retractable spikes."

Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Lu Qianlan immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"That's a very famous demonic beast in the forbidden area, called the Sacred Armor Earth-Earth Beast. An adult Sacred Armor Earth-Earth Beast is an eighth-tier demonic beast, comparable to a True Yuan Realm expert! I didn't expect that we would encounter an eighth-tier demonic beast so soon after entering the forbidden area, it's really..." Lu Qianlan couldn't help but say.

"Ignore him, let's leave here first."

Night Wind released Lu Qianlan and flew with her deeper into the forbidden area.

These past few days, Ye Feng hasn't been idle within the Divine Dragon Cult; he's specifically inquired about news regarding the Western Zero Star Grass.

The West Zero Star Grass should grow near the center of the forbidden area, so Ye Feng and Lu Qianlan are going there to find it.

"Flying at high altitudes is too dangerous. There are so many monsters here, we'll become easy targets!" Lu Qianlan said anxiously.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Feng and Lu Qianlan lowered their altitude together.

However, at that moment, a strong gust of wind came from above.

As soon as Ye Feng turned around, he saw a huge flying beast attacking him and Lu Qianlan.

This flying monster looks like an eagle magnified dozens of times, but it has two heads, which makes it look very strange.

"Two-Headed Demon Eagle!"

Lu Qianlan exclaimed in surprise, and then unleashed a series of jet-black willow branches.

The two-headed demon eagle immediately stretched out its two claws and grabbed the willow branches. The friction between its claws and the willow branches actually produced bursts of dazzling sparks.

Then the two-headed demonic eagle opened its sharp beak, and the left head spat out a pillar of crimson fire, while the right head spat out thousands upon thousands of sharp ice crystals!

“The two-headed demonic eagle is a peak seventh-tier demonic beast, roughly equivalent to a martial artist at the ninth level of the Separation and Union Realm!” Lu Qianlan said.

"There are really a lot of demonic beasts in the forbidden area of ​​your Divine Dragon Sect!"

After Ye Feng finished speaking, he took out Chen Houfei's long sword.

As Ye Feng swung his longsword, a bright flash of light shot out, instantly slicing through all the fire pillars and ice crystals spewed by the two-headed demonic eagle.

After severing the pillars of fire and the ice crystals, the blade's light dimmed but did not disappear; instead, it continued to fly towards the two-headed demonic eagle in the sky.

Pfft!

The blade struck the two-headed demonic eagle, leaving a long wound on its body.

Bright red blood gushed out of the two-headed demon eagle's body as if it were free, and both of the eagle's heads were raised high, emitting painful cries.

After injuring the two-headed demon eagle, Nightwind did not make another move.

Although one more strike would be enough to kill the two-headed demonic eagle, Ye Feng didn't care about the beast at all.

Damaging it is enough.

"Keep moving forward," Night Wind commanded.

"yes!"

Lu Qianlan nodded emphatically and followed Ye Feng, flying quickly towards the center of the forbidden area.

At the same time.

Sun Xianglan stared palely at the corpse of the Azure Scaled Dragon Python in front of her, a deep sense of lingering fear welling up inside her.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Jiang," Sun Xianglan said gratefully.

Having been ambushed by the azure-scaled python, Sun Xianglan was severely injured in a single exchange. If Jiang Yinglong hadn't arrived in time, she would likely have perished.

“We’re all from the same sect, it’s only right that I save you,” Jiang Yinglong said with a smile.

As he spoke, Jiang Yinglong flicked his broadsword, wiping away all the blood from the blade.

After nodding, Sun Xianglan continued, "Senior Brother Jiang, may I travel with you?"

"this……"

Jiang Yinglong hesitated.

Sun Xianglan quickly said, "Senior Brother Jiang, don't worry. If we encounter any rare treasures, I definitely won't compete with you. Just share some of what you don't need with me... Besides, I'm seriously injured right now. If I'm attacked by monsters again while traveling alone, I'm afraid I'll be in serious trouble..."

At this point, Sun Xianglan looked like she was about to cry.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Yinglong finally nodded: "Alright then, you'll come with me."

"Thanks!"

Sun Xianglan was extremely excited, her cheeks flushed red.

The entrance to the restricted area.

Li Zhengke has left, and now only the four elders remain.

Mu Bailian thought for a moment and said, "We don't need to stay here all the time. We just need to leave one person behind and then take turns guarding."

Li Qiangfeng immediately nodded and said, "Elder Mu is right. How about this, I will guard the first day, Elder Wang will guard the second day, and Elder Chen will guard the third day. Elder Mu, you don't need to guard the first day. If any emergencies occur, you can lend a hand."

Hearing Li Qiangfeng say this, Mu Bailian thought for a moment and then nodded, saying, "Then let's do it this way."

So Mu Bailian left together with Elder Wang and Elder Chen.

As soon as the three of them left, a ferocious look appeared on Li Qiangfeng's face.

Li Qiangfeng then rushed into the forbidden area without hesitation, without staying behind to guard the entrance and exit!

Ye Feng and Lu Qianlan have now arrived at the center of the forbidden area.

But like other places, this place is full of lush forests and seems to have nothing special about it.

Moreover, the night wind did not find any trace of the West Zero Star Grass.

"Could the intelligence be wrong?" Ye Feng said, frowning.

Lu Qianlan thought for a moment and said, "Senior Ye, should we split up and search? That way, the search will be faster."

"Alright."

After a brief moment of thought, Ye Feng nodded in agreement.

With the inner core of the Willow Tree as her backing, Lu Qianlan now possesses the strength of the fourth level of the Separation and Union Realm.

She was traveling alone, so the night wind wouldn't worry about her.

After they parted ways, the night wind darted through the forest, searching for traces of the West Zero Star Grass.

Just then, Ye Feng saw a figure ahead.

Who is that person?

Was she one of the Divine Dragon Cult disciples who entered the forbidden area of ​​the Divine Dragon Cult with me?

Ye Feng strode forward, and upon reaching him, he was surprised to find that the person was Lu Qianlan!

Lu Qianlan lay on the ground covered in blood, seemingly on the verge of death.

"Help...help me..."

Lu Qianlan looked at Ye Feng and said, her face full of pleading.

But Ye Feng suddenly revealed a cold smile: "You're clever, knowing to deceive me this way instead of foolishly attacking me directly. But you're also incredibly stupid, actually transforming into Lu Qianlan's appearance. I've spent so many days with her, do you think I can't tell the difference between you and her?"
