Starting from iron smelting

Chapter 136 The pursuers arrive again

At this moment, Qing Ming was like a god rising from a glacier that had existed for thousands of years, standing quietly in the distance. He was dressed in a green shirt, with long hair like a waterfall, fluttering in the wind, and he exuded a cold and majestic temperament. His eyes were as deep as the abyss, and his gaze was as cold as a knife, as if he could see through all illusions and reach the deepest part of people's hearts.

Qing Ming's eyes were like two sharp blades, drawing invisible tracks in the air and piercing straight at Lu Xiuyuan. He did not say anything, but the invisible sense of oppression was as heavy as a mountain, making Lu Xiuyuan feel a strong sense of uneasiness.

Then, Qingming raised his finger and waved it casually. An invisible force spread in the air, spreading out like ripples. As this force spread, two burly and ferocious demon pursuers suddenly appeared on both sides of Lu Xiuyuan.

The two monsters were several feet tall and as big as mountains. Their faces were hideous and terrifying, as if they were evil spirits crawling out of hell, which made people shudder. Their eyes flashed with fierce and greedy light, as if they had already regarded Lu Xiuyuan as a prey in their pockets. The demonic aura on them was thick and strong, as if it could corrode all living things.

Facing the siege of these two monsters, Lu Xiuyuan felt a chill on his spine and a chill rising from the bottom of his heart. He knew that he was in a desperate situation and would die if he was not careful. However, he did not give up, but instead pushed the spiritual power in his body to the extreme and accelerated his flight speed.

Lu Xiuyuan was now a cultivator in the foundation building stage. He was already able to fly or fly with his sword by relying on his spiritual power. His figure was as fast as lightning, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air, trying to get rid of the entanglement of the two monsters. However, the two monsters seemed to have endless power. No matter how fast he accelerated, they could follow him closely and bite him tightly.

During his escape, Lu Xiuyuan kept looking back to observe the movements of the two monsters. He noticed that the two monsters were extremely fast, as if they were not restricted by anything. Moreover, their attack methods were also extremely cunning and fierce, often able to launch fatal attacks when he was not paying attention.

However, what made Lu Xiuyuan even more uneasy was that the Yuanying old monster did not chase him. He knew in his heart that the Yuanying old monster must have deliberately let the two monster beasts chase him to consume his strength. Although the Yuanying old monster did not chase him personally, his threat still existed.

He was thinking about how to deal with the enemy in his mind, and there was an unyielding light in his eyes, as if he wanted to tear apart the endless darkness.

He knew that he couldn't keep running away like this, because running away was never the solution to the problem. The two monsters were so powerful that they were like two insurmountable mountains, but Lu Xiuyuan believed that as long as he found the right opportunity, he would be able to find a breakthrough to fight back.

However, counterattack does not mean reckless action. Lu Xiuyuan knew that his biggest weakness at the moment was the "Slaying God Technique". Although this skill was extremely powerful, if it was used in front of others, it would definitely lead to countless troubles and pursuits. He could not take risks, he had to find a way to perform the "Slaying God Technique" while avoiding exposing his identity.

Lu Xiuyuan took a deep breath, gathered his energy, and rushed to the south like lightning. His heart was filled with expectation and anxiety. He expected to find a force he could rely on, and he was anxious because the two monster beasts were chasing him. He knew that he had to find a safe place as soon as possible, otherwise if he was caught up by the two monster beasts, the consequences would be disastrous.

The southern skyline gradually unfolded before his eyes. There might be sects or human forces that had not fallen. Lu Xiuyuan's heart was full of hope. He believed that there, he could find the power to hold back the two demon pursuers. However, he also knew that this road was full of unknowns and dangers. He had to stay alert at all times and not relax at all.

During the long journey of escape, Lu Xiuyuan's thoughts were like a group of frightened birds fleeing and drifting around. He silently looked back on the past years, from the moment he embarked on the path of cultivation to the various hardships he had experienced until today, the frustrations and tribulations he had suffered in the past, now all turned into a source of motivation to push him forward. He deeply realized that only a sword that has been sharpened can show its sharpness, and only those who have experienced the test of life and death can become more resolute and strong.

Lu Xiuyuan imagined the thrilling scene of the fierce battle with the two monsters in his mind, and repeatedly deduced various possible situations in his mind. He knew that in the face of such a strong enemy, he must be fully prepared and must not have any luck. So, he began to carefully recall every detail in "Slaying Gods", racking his brains to think about how to use this peerless technique as a foundation to create his own unique skills.

Time passed quietly, and Lu Xiuyuan's figure was like a gust of wind, raising clouds of dust on the vast land in the south, leaving behind a series of blurred afterimages. His heart was filled with rock-hard faith and determination to fight to the death, knowing clearly that he must not fail, because failure would be equivalent to embarking on a road of no return. Therefore, he must firmly grasp the fleeting opportunity, only in this way can he hope to achieve a comeback and turn the tide!

Finally, after several days of soul-stirring escape, exhausted Lu Xiuyuan arrived at a deserted valley. This valley was quiet and mysterious, as if it was isolated from the world. Looking around, there were ancient giant trees towering into the sky, blocking out the sun, which had witnessed the vicissitudes of time; under his feet was a barren land with no grass growing, revealing a sense of desolation and tragedy.

However, even in such a seemingly lifeless place, Lu Xiuyuan's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible light of excitement - he knew that this was the place he had been searching for for a long time! There was no interference from the hustle and bustle of the world, allowing him to practice the peerless magic skill "Slaying Gods" without distraction!

At this moment, Lu Xiuyuan stood quietly at the entrance of the valley, his figure as straight as a pine tree, his eyes as firm as a rock, like an unshakable mountain. His eyes were like two burning flames, staring straight ahead, as if to penetrate the endless darkness and explore the mysteries hidden in it. Deep in his heart, he was surging with eager anticipation for future success, and also with a little nervousness about unknown challenges.

But Lu Xiuyuan knew clearly that at this moment, he must remain absolutely calm and sober, and must not let his complicated emotions influence his thoughts and judgment. So, he took a deep breath, as if to absorb all the spiritual energy in the world into his nose; then he gently closed his eyes, began to practice qigong and regulate his breathing, methodically guiding the powerful and surging true energy in his body to flow through the meridians of his body...

Under the surge of true energy, Lu Xiuyuan's body seemed to merge with the surrounding world. He could feel the powerful force gathering in his body, as if to tear him apart. However, he did not retreat, but held the power tightly in his hands, waiting for the arrival of that critical moment.
