Yunmeng Village is not far from Fubo Lake, only a few dozen kilometers away.

Fubo Lake is surrounded by mountains on all sides, with a pond in the center that never sees sunlight all year round.

More than a thousand years ago, a general named Fubo from the Great Xia court led his troops through this place and left behind the name Fubo Lake.

Fubo Lake used to be part of Yunmeng Lake. When Jidu annexed Yunmeng Lake, a large amount of water sources dried up and the original lake turned into land. However, Fubo Lake was preserved because of its special terrain.

Thousands of years of geographical changes, coupled with the birth of a natural spiritual pool during this spiritual tide, have made Fubo Lake a well-known spiritual place in the Dongting Lake area today.

Walking on the rugged mountain road, the Maine Coon followed Shen Yuan closely with Little White Snow on its head, revealing a somewhat regretful expression from time to time.

When the Maine Coon reached the mountain road, he thought it was another chance to become the immortal's mount, but Shen Yuan had no intention of sitting on its back.

Shen Yuan ignored the Maine Coon's little thoughts and at this moment he was looking up at the sky.

At this moment, the sky had just brightened but the sun was not visible. Large patches of dark clouds covered the sky, showing signs of impending storm, making people feel indescribably depressed.

Shen Yuan looked somewhat solemn.

After refining the Rain-Calling Power, a subtle connection began to emerge between him and the world. Shen Yuan couldn't tell whether this was due to the characteristics of the Tiangang Power or the Rain-Calling Power.

At this moment, the subtle connection between heaven and earth was constantly reminding Shen Yuan that the celestial phenomenon before him was unusual.

Thinking of what Lord Fubo Long had done, some thoughts arose in Shen Yuan's mind.

"If that's the case, this Dragon King Banquet seems to be getting more and more interesting."

“But Lord Fubo Long has his own support, so why don’t I have a trump card?

I hope everything goes well for Yu Changliu."

Sighing softly, Shen Yuan continued walking towards the direction of Fubo Lake.

Outside Fubo Pond, in front of the Dragon King’s banquet.

He Yao looked at the monsters around him inconspicuously, his heart was already panicked to the extreme.

As one of the few human practitioners among the guests at the Dragon King's Banquet, He Yao had already been filled with regrets about this trip.

Three months ago, He Yao was just an ordinary office worker in Chunyang County. He felt a heart pain and fainted while working overtime late at night.

He thought he would become a social animal who died suddenly from overwork, but when he woke up the next day, he was told that he had become a practitioner.

The practitioners of the Great Xia court informed He Yao about the spiritual energy tide and claimed that he possessed extraordinary qualifications for practice.

Among the billions of people in Daxia, only one in a million can actively awaken and become a practitioner.

The Great Xia court took the initiative to provide He Yao with basic breathing techniques and invited He Yao to join the Great Xia court, but He Yao refused on the grounds that he did not want to be restricted.

Over the past few months, major families, high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Qingzhou have been extending olive branches to He Yao in an attempt to recruit him, but He Yao, who sees himself as a child of destiny, has ignored them all.

In He Yao's eyes, with such talent, he should make a name for himself in this world.

Half a month ago, a piece of news suddenly spread on a private forum of many practitioners.

The Dragon King of Fubo Lake held a Dragon King Banquet, inviting guests from all over, and even took out a treasure like the Natural Spirit Pool that could help people refine their essence and transform it into energy.

He Yao was overjoyed when he heard this, thinking that this must be an opportunity for him to rise to prominence, so he immediately got up and rushed to Fubo Lake, wanting to participate in the Dragon King's Banquet.

However, just as he arrived at Sanfu Mountain outside Fubo Lake, He Yao began to regret it. The Dragon King Banquet here is completely different from the Dragon King Banquet in mythology.

There is no legendary water god or earth god, no beautiful dragon girl, no magnificent and luxurious crystal palace, and even no imagined opportunity of becoming the Dragon King.

There is only a mountain forest here, with monsters and aquatic creatures everywhere, giving the feeling of a group of monsters dancing wildly.

If it was just a difference in environment, He Yao could still accept it.

But just an hour ago, he who had just arrived here saw with his own eyes a human cultivator who tried to go up the mountain, but was stopped by two little demons in the name of checking for contraband and robbed of treasures.

During a fight, several demons killed human practitioners and took away their treasures in the name of disturbing order, and buried their bodies in a random pit.

The way the cultivator died in the end made He Yao completely panic.

At this moment He Yao realized that without the order established by the Great Xia court, he, the so-called favored son of heaven, would be nothing at all.

The demon tribe will not treat you with courtesy just because you have great potential and good qualifications. Here, the most naked law of the jungle prevails.

As one of the few humans participating in the Dragon King's Banquet, He Yao could already feel many greedy eyes staring at him.

The practitioners of the Great Xia court had reminded He Yao many times that for a naturally awakened practitioner like him, the spiritual energy accumulated in his body and his flesh and blood were a rare tonic for the demon race.

As long as there is a chance, no demon will miss the opportunity to eat him.

When he was in the city, He Yao did not pay attention to the reminder from the practitioners of the Great Xia court. It was not until he was surrounded by monsters that he realized how precious this reminder was.

In fact, there were far more human practitioners participating in the Dragon King Banquet than just He Yao. Some of them even realized that something was wrong before they arrived at Fubo Lake and chose to leave immediately.

However, the demons who were watching all the time had already set their eyes on them. As soon as those practitioners left, they immediately followed them. Among them was even a demon in the Qi Transformation Realm.

After witnessing this incident with his own eyes, He Yao realized that escaping would only lead to death, and there was a high possibility that he would be troubled by these monsters if he went up the mountain to attend the banquet.

Only by staying where we are can we perhaps make these monsters afraid to act rashly.

This is definitely not a long-term solution. Once the Dragon King Banquet is over and he hasn't found a way to escape danger, He Yao has no doubt that he will be eaten alive by these monsters.

"If a strong man who can sweep away all the monsters can come to my human race, maybe he can save me."

Of course, this kind of thing can only exist in fantasy.

Even if there really is such a strong person, why would the other party take the risk to help him?

Looking around, He Yao suddenly saw a young man in white clothes with outstanding temperament stepping into this place out of the corner of his eye.

"Alas, another unlucky guy."

He Yao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but he saw the young man in white walking straight up the mountain.

Not far behind him, a gigantic tiger demon in the Qi Transformation Realm had sharp eyes, and it seemed that it had already regarded the young man in white as its prey.

His heart trembled suddenly. He Yao knew very well that if the young man entered rashly, the monsters might find a reason to kill him in advance.

After hesitating for a while, He Yao finally gritted his teeth, put on a very happy look, waved at Shen Yuan and shouted:

"Why did you come just now?"

"Come here quickly, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
