In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

Chapter 117 Three Lifetimes: The Thousand-Year-Old Demonic Locust Tree, the Bone-Corroding Poisonous Mist

Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

It was the fifth watch of the night.

Lu Yuan woke up from his sleep, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

Usually, around four in the morning, the sound of roosters crowing can be heard.

But today it was unusually quiet; the huge security escort agency was completely silent!

"Somewhat something is wrong."

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, just about to turn over and get out of bed.

"Squeak!"

But at this time.

The door opened by itself when no one was there, and a bone-chilling wind rushed in from the crack, making one shiver involuntarily!

Lu Yuan turned his head to look.

The courtyard outside the gate was shrouded in a gray mist.

Lu Yuan's vision was blocked by the gray fog, and he couldn't see anything more than ten feet away!

This discovery was of great significance, setting off alarm bells in his mind.

It should be noted that martial artists at the third-grade Qi Gathering Realm have gradually transcended the realm of mortal bodies and possess eyesight and hearing far exceeding those of ordinary people.

Even an ant a hundred feet away would be clearly visible under normal circumstances!

But this gray fog seems to block out all sound and sight. If you were to be inside it, your five senses would be greatly weakened, making you even less than an ordinary person!

Especially as the gray fog spread.

The entire door gradually disappeared, and everything in sight, except for the bed where Lu Yuan was, vanished without a trace!
Moreover, shadowy figures could be seen moving about in the gray fog.

There were several blurry figures lingering at the door, occasionally casting cold glances at Lu Yuan!

These figures included men, women, and children, but their faces were indistinct.

But on their lips, they all wore a strange smile!
"Why would something be haunted out of the ordinary?"

Since the beginning of simulation.

This was the first time Lu Yuan had encountered such a strange situation. Even though he was a Qi Gathering Realm expert, he was still a little unsure of himself.

Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he immediately focused intently on the gray fog in front of him.

Sure enough, not long after, a piece of information surfaced in his mind.

[Martial Skill: Bone-Corroding Poison Mist (Weakened Version)]

[Grade: Earth Rank]

[Introduction: When the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree of Black Wind Ridge was comprehending the Dao in the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons, it imitated the manipulation of the primordial energy of heaven and earth by a powerful being from the Divine Sea Realm and created this unique technique.]

[Once this move is used, it can cover everything within a ten-mile radius; any living thing that enters it will be poisoned and die!]

[Note: The tiger demon's cultivation level is insufficient; the bone-corroding poison mist it unleashes is less than one percent as powerful as the thousand-year-old demonic acacia tree.]

[But its exceptional talent allowed it to forge a new path beyond the Bone-Corroding Poison Mist, creating a new technique called Bone-Corroding Ghost Mist. This technique can create vengeful spirits by killing living people, using the gray mist to weaken martial artists' strength and five senses!]

"All this charade was just the work of that tiger demon in the shadows!"

After figuring out the enemy's origins, Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that we know who the enemy is, there's nothing to worry about.

He grabbed Blood Butcher and suddenly jumped up from the head of the bed.

The power of wind and thunder was poured into the Blood Butcher Blade through the hilt as if it were free.

Countless complex patterns lit up one after another, and a blood-red blade light, as solid as a substance, suddenly shot out!

Wind and Thunder Blade Technique, Second Form: Slaying Evil!

The extremely powerful and yang energy of wind and thunder is the nemesis of all evil spirits and monsters.

Moreover, the Blood Butcher has been stained with the blood of countless people. It is an unparalleled weapon of murderous intent, and its intense killing aura is so strong that even evil spirits are terrified of it!

Before the ghosts could react, they were struck by the blade's edge and instantly turned into wisps of green smoke, dissipating into the air.

"Boom!"

The powerful energy of wind and thunder surged, cleansing away all demons and evil spirits.

Arcs of lightning, like serpents, darted through the air.

All the gray fog quickly disappeared, receding like the tide, finally revealing the courtyard's true appearance.

As the gray fog dissipated, an elderly figure hurriedly approached from afar, his face still showing lingering fear and apprehension.

"Yuan'er, are you alright?"

"Grandpa Lu asked with concern."

This gray fog is too strange; it can actually block all senses. Even he was trapped just now!
If Lu Yuan hadn't intervened in time to dispel all the gray fog...

Otherwise, if someone takes advantage of our weakness, the consequences will be unimaginable!

"Wait, Yuan'er, you've broken through again?"

Old Master Lu looked Lu Yuan up and down, then suddenly gasped, his eyes widening like saucers, as if he had discovered a new world.

in his perception.

Lu Yuan's true energy was as vast and powerful as rivers and seas, even stronger than his own!
"I had a sudden insight while cultivating a couple of days ago, so I took the opportunity to break through."

Lu Yuan, on the other hand, seemed quite calm.

With the triple blessing of "Acting on Behalf of Heaven," "Yin Sha Spiritual Body," and "Severing Emotions to Prove the Dao," this achievement is nothing at all.

But his calm tone sounded like a thunderclap to Old Master Lu!
At only two years old, he has already reached the third-grade Qi Gathering Realm?

What kind of unparalleled genius is this?
Grandpa Lu felt dizzy and didn't come to his senses for a long time.

"Grandpa, your injury has just healed, so please take care of yourself and get some rest. I'm going out to run some errands."

Lu Yuan greeted them and then turned and left the escort agency.

The ghostly fog came suddenly; the person behind it must be nearby!
……

the other side.

In a mansion not far from Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

The bluestone ground was stained red with blood, and there were corpses and skeletons everywhere that had been completely devoured. Even the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.

A group of powerful demons were happily eating arms and legs.

Ever since their ancestor started fooling around with that tiger demon, trying to learn human language and customs, they've been eating slowly and methodically, and haven't enjoyed a meal this heartily in a long time.

The pig demons suddenly disappeared, and they took advantage of the opportunity to enter the city to wreak havoc and satisfy their appetites.

After all, the villagers in the mountains outside the city were all starving and emaciated, how could they compare to these pampered, plump, wealthy merchants?

Just as a group of powerful demons were enjoying their meal with grease on their lips.

The tiger demon, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly seemed to have suffered a severe blow and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Its vigorous and energetic vitality quickly declined, and it instantly became listless and dispirited.

"Who exactly is the expert from Zhenyuan Escort Agency? How could they possibly break through my Bone-Corroding Ghost Mist!"

The tiger demon suddenly opened its eyes, its expression one of extreme horror.

Its cultivation time is still short. Although its direct combat strength is not good, its aptitude and talent are enough to crush all the great demons of Black Wind Ridge.

Therefore.

That's why the thousand-year-old demonic locust tree valued it so much, even going so far as to break the rules and adopt it as its godson.

The bone-corroding ghost mist it creates is even more exquisite and has greater potential than the bone-corroding poison mist of the thousand-year-old demon locust tree!
But the tiger demon never dreamed of this.

It originally intended to use the ghost fog to investigate the situation of Zhenyuan Escort Agency, but who knew that it would be so easily broken?
Considering the mysterious disappearances of the pig demon and Wu Yong, the tiger demon was now certain that something terrible was happening at the Zhenyuan Escort Agency!
But when the tiger demon saw the demons still fighting over food, he became even angrier.

"What time is it? You bunch of idiots are still fighting over food?"

"If we don't leave now, are we just going to stay here and wait to die?"

The tiger demon scolded him angrily, feeling utterly disappointed.

"Tiger demon, you haven't been wise for long, and you're too cowardly. Back in the day, when we followed our ancestor, we killed countless experts from the Demon Suppression Division."

"So what if the Zhenyuan Escort Agency has experts? Are they more powerful than the Demon Suppression Division and can wipe us out in one fell swoop?"

The other powerful demons, however, paid no heed and continued to feast.

They were bored in Black Wind Ridge, and now that they had finally made it to the city, how could they leave easily without filling their stomachs?

The tiger demon was so angry he almost vomited blood.

How can the demon race be revitalized by associating with these insects?
Just as it was about to leave alone, it suddenly stopped and took a few steps back.

Because a figure had suddenly appeared at the entrance of the mansion!
With the year-end approaching, there are so many things to take care of that I'm busy from morning till night, and I haven't had time to write anything.

I apologize for only updating once today. I will try my best to update twice tomorrow. Please forgive me, dear readers.

The author wishes all readers a Happy New Year and all the best!
