The Lost Jueyun Gorge, a small soul beast gathering place near Dongji City, is mostly the habitat of siamang soul beasts, and many soul masters come and go on weekdays.
Today however, they saw Chen Qingting and her entourage enter. The three major families in the city came out together. There is no way they are here for those thousand-year-old soul beasts on the periphery.
Thinking of the legend of Jueyunjian, some people followed him, while others just gave up on soul hunting today and watched the situation from outside.
Brothers Chen Qingting and Chen Qingfeng walked in front, Xu Mingxi and Xiao Rui guarded the center, Tong Lin and the two attacking soul experts walked at the very back, while the two soul saint-level bodyguards were on guard duty on both sides.
"Everyone be careful, the habitat of the gibbon tribe is ahead, and we must pass through the center."
Chen Qingting gave the order, and everyone's martial spirit rose, looking around vigilantly to prevent any beasts from suddenly appearing.
Jueyunjian was a long and narrow corridor, with gibbons living on the cliffs on both sides. The crowd's destination was at the end of this corridor.
According to rumors circulating in Dongji City, at the end of Jueyun Gorge, there is a secret treasure that can help people advance to the Douluo Degree.
It was impossible to know where the rumor came from and who started it. Most people in the extended family did not believe the authenticity of the rumors at all.
This operation was more of a training for the younger generation, otherwise, some Soul Douould would have joined in to personally explore the contents.
Xu Mingxi walked in the center of the team, looking around vigilantly. No one knew the situation in the depths of Jueyun Gorge.
But according to statistics from Dongji City over the years, the number of ten-thousand-year soul beasts in the siamang group outside alone must be no less than five, and they lived in groups.
Their team can easily deal with five 10,000- to 20,000-year-old soul beasts, but there is a large tribe behind them, and no one knows what kind of danger is hidden inside them.
One of their mainstays when entering Jueyun Gorge this time was the Soul Saint that the Chen family sent, Chen Qi, a level 71 dexterity attack combat Soul Saint with an iguana martial soul.
His third soul skill is taken from a 1,200-year-old chameleon lizard, and his soul skill is his greatest ability: camouflage.
This soul skill can reduce the team's aura, which allows them to blend into the surroundings and avoid the possibility of being discovered by the gibbon group.
Everyone held their breath and groped forward cautiously. The fog in Jueyun Gorge was very thick and the cries of monkeys could be heard from afar, attracting everyone's attention.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the two brothers Chen Qingting and Chen Qingfeng, who led the group, looked at the seemingly endless road ahead and felt a little desperate.
As the initiators of this operation, they had a heavy burden on their shoulders. Not only did they want to bring everyone back safely, but they also wanted to gain something here.
Suddenly, the Soul Saint walking on the left seemed to sense something and instantly stopped the team.
"Everyone, be careful. There seems to be something coming from the left."
Everyone's martial spirit was possessed, and Xu Mingxi's martial spirit star crown appeared above his head. He stared at the forest to the left, and starlight condensed at his fingertips, ready to shoot out at any moment.
After a long howl, the flock of monkeys swung between the trees, screaming, and attacked Xu Mingxi. According to the records of this kind of soul beast in Dongji City, the leading one was over ten thousand years old.
Chen Qingting's face suddenly changed. They weren't afraid of ten thousand year soul beasts, but once they were dragged down and another group of gibbons arrived, they might never be able to escape.
"Break through. Don't worry about them. Just go straight into the deepest part."
Before Chen Qingting could react, Xu Mingxi gave the team a direct order, saying that it would be foolish to wait for the group of monkeys on the left to arrive.
Having come this far, everyone didn't want to give up, so they had no choice but to dive deeper. With the strength of the team, as long as they weren't surrounded, they could handle it calmly.
Xu Mingxi released a ray of starlight while running, and the star net shot out casually. He didn't care about the result, he followed the team and ran forward with his head covered.
Almost all those present were combat soul masters, except for Yuan Qing of the Yuan family, whose physical strength was slightly weaker. Red light flowed through his body, and green light radiated from him, falling on everyone.
Xu Mingxi only felt that his body seemed a little lighter. After taking a step, his body shot far away and his speed increased greatly.
He looked at Yuan Qing in astonishment. This additional ability was quite good. Although Xu Mingxi had never experienced the assistance of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower, before becoming a Soul King, the difference between the two shouldn't be too great, and the Seven-Colored Deer might even have an advantage.
However, as the cultivation levels of the soul masters in the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda increased, so did their amplification percentages. This was the most frightening thing about the Seven Treasure Plated Pagoda. It could even achieve great leap amplification.
With Yuan Qing's help, they broke through the depths of clouds and fog, temporarily escaping the monkey blockade. However, Xu Mingxi, who had entered the thick fog, felt lost, and called out to his teammates but received no answer.
Xu Mingxi suddenly felt a little panicked, his fourth soul ring flickered, and the Star Guardians lit up around him, protecting him strongly.
"Grandpa, are you still there?"
Not getting any answers, Xu Mingxi forced himself to calm down.
In his previous life, he lived in a stable society and his family was well-off. In this life, although he lived in the Douluo Continent where strength was revered and the weak were preyed upon by the strong, he had also lived under the protection of the Star Crown Sect since he was a child.
This was the first time Xu Mingxi had faced unknown dangers alone. He forced himself to calm down, maintained his Star Guardian, aimed in a direction, and moved forward slowly.
The Great Elder appeared where he had left off. He actually heard his granddaughter calling out to him, but he wouldn't show up.
In fact, he had always known that the sect and himself had spoiled Xu Mingxi too much, letting him live in a peaceful and stable environment, and even seemed a little lazy in his spiritual practice.
When she traveled outside, she became even more unscrupulous knowing that she had a protector behind her. He entered the Soul Douluo family alone and even threatened the other family leaders.
If not for his talent, just based on his cultivation attitude and personality, he would have already been labeled as a useless person by the sect leader and expelled from the sect's first set of exercises.
There was currently a good opportunity for Xu Mingxi to gain experience, and the Great Elder was unwilling to intervene to stop him.
The Great Elder could sense the layer of mist in the depths of Jueyun Gorge, which at worst only blinded some Soul Douluo who were not good at perception. To him, it was just a layer of veil covering his eyes, and his vision was only slightly impaired.
He saw clearly that all the members of the adventure team were lost in a thick fog that made them unable to see their hands in front of their faces.
Everyone dispersed, except for the two brothers Chen Qingting and Chen Qingfeng, who were originally close to each other and with a bit of luck, happened to run into each other.
Suddenly, the Great Elder frowned, his martial spirit appeared, and his star-like hand struck out, instantly grabbing Yuan Qing to his side.
