Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San as a disciple, with a ten-thousand-fold return for teaching him.

It's worth mentioning that Yu Xiuyuan's White Snake seems to have great respect for Golden Luo Sanpao, and also a sense of awe, giving people a feeling of wanting to get close, but not daring to get close.

After traveling for a while, Chen Luo and his group soon came across some skeletons in the Lost Canyon. Some were from humans, and some were from giant beasts, as could be seen from their skeletal shapes.

After a while, Chen Luo and his companions finally encountered the first wild beast in the Lost Canyon.

That's right, they are wild beasts, not soul beasts.

Soul beasts also exist in this Mysterious Grand Canyon, but there are far more wild beasts.

Of course, these beasts are no ordinary beasts; their combat power is even stronger than that of ordinary soul beasts.

What Chen Luo and his companions were seeing was a giant lizard with four heads, over ten meters long, and incredibly robust. Its slightly open mouth emitted a little black gas, which seemed to contain a potent poison.

Chen Luo looked further into the distance and saw that there seemed to be quite a few of these strange lizards in this area.

Let's start grinding monsters from here!

Chen Luo gave Huang Jinluo Sanpao the order to go and test the strength of the giant lizard.

But before Golden Luo Sanpao could even make a move, the giant lizard was so frightened that it dug into the ground, trying to escape underground.

Unfortunately, Golden Luo Sanpao was faster. His dragon claw firmly grabbed the lizard's tail, pulled it out, and then gave it a good beating.

In just a short while, the strange four-headed lizard collapsed to the ground, barely alive.

Chen Luo then spoke up: "Xiu Yuan, Hong Jun, you can begin."

Chapter 220 Fire Demon

The Lost Canyon, in its deeper parts.

On a relatively flat meadow stood three wooden houses. The houses looked simple, but they were enough for people to live in.

It was early morning when Chen Luo carefully got out of bed and then skillfully prepared breakfast for everyone.

The ingredients are top-quality soul beast meat from the Divine Dragon Space, and the cooking utensils are also from the Divine Dragon Space.

Chen Luo's Divine Dragon Space has everything, and the furniture and items in the wooden house are all taken from his Divine Dragon Space.

High-end ingredients often only require the most basic cooking methods. Chen Luo simply processed the meat of those soul beasts, roasted it over a blazing fire until it was thoroughly cooked, and a delicious dish was ready. There was no need to test his cooking skills.

After Chen Luo prepared breakfast, the others arrived one after another.

As usual, they enjoyed the delicious food while praising Chen Luo's cooking skills, and then planned their actions for the day.

Unbeknownst to them, they had been in the Mysterious Grand Canyon for half a month.

For the past two weeks, I've been hunting during the day and cultivating at night, basically living a repetitive life.

This was mainly a training exercise for Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan; Chen Luo and the others were just accompanying them.

There's not much to say about this experience; it's simply about constantly growing stronger through battle.

By fighting against those powerful beasts, one challenges their own limits, constantly pushing and breaking through their own boundaries.

Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan also performed very well, always handling various battles effectively.

In addition, the resources in this Mysterious Grand Canyon are truly excellent; besides all sorts of ferocious beasts, there are also some rare and exotic plants.

Although Chen Luo and his companions did not have as much knowledge about herbs as Tang San, there were still relevant herbal books in this world.

During the two-week expedition, Chen Luo and his team collected a lot of good things. They gave all the familiar, useful, and usable items directly to Yu Xiuyuan and Ma Hongjun.

It was precisely because of these various factors that Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan not only improved their combat experience, but also steadily increased their soul power.

"Let's go to the Fire Demon area on the east side today. It's time for Xiu Yuan and Hong Jun to face new opponents. There's also a kind of fiery red ore there that possesses a certain amount of fire attribute power, which will be helpful for Hong Jun's cultivation," Chen Luo suggested.

Flanders nodded: "Yes, it's settled then."

Having been here for half a month, Flander had already learned about the surrounding situation quite well. If it weren't for safety reasons, he probably would have already ventured deep into the white fog area to explore.

The Fire Demon is a humanoid monster covered in flames, somewhat similar to the Fire Guardian Chen Luo encountered in the Dragon's Secret Realm: Tomb of Ice and Fire, but their strengths are vastly different; they are not even in the same league.

The Fire Demon's combat power is between Soul Master and Soul King, which is exactly what Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan can challenge.

After breakfast, Chen Luo and his group went to the area where the fire demon was located.

At first glance, it was a forest of fiery red trees, and even just getting close, one could feel a wave of intense heat emanating from it.

Within that fiery red forest, one could see many humanoid monsters whose entire bodies were covered in flames; these were fire demons.

The fire demons gathered in groups of three or five around the fiery red trees, and on those trees, one could see many fiery red crystals, from which one could clearly feel the fluctuations of soul power.

Without needing much prompting from Chen Luo and the others, Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan immediately entered combat mode upon arriving at their destination.

Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan have developed a very good working relationship. Yu Xiuyuan is responsible for taking the initiative and using his first soul skill, Snake Shadow Substitute, to attract the fire demon, while Ma Hongjun is responsible for dealing damage.

Although both Ma Hongjun and the Fire Demon wield the power of fire, Ma Hongjun's fire level is significantly higher than the Fire Demon's.

Ma Hongjun's battle strategy was very clear: he used his second soul skill, Phoenix Rebirth, to enhance himself, followed by his first soul skill, Phoenix Fire Line, to probe the enemy.

After Ma Hongjun's second and first spirit rings lit up one after the other, he opened his mouth and spat out a beam of fire.

The phoenix flames landed on the fire demon, actually devouring some of the fire demon's flames and dimming them considerably, giving it absolute suppression.

Yu Xiuyuan's role was relatively small. He used his second soul skill, Giant Fireball, to release a large fireball from his white snake, which hit the fire demon. The fireball was very powerful, but the damage it actually caused was very limited.

When fire clashes, it's a contest of whose flame is stronger, and also a test of strength.

Yu Xiuyuan's flames were not as powerful as Ma Hongjun's, and he was also at a disadvantage in terms of soul power level, which is why his flames felt like they were just scratching a itch.

The fire demon was not a sitting duck. After being attacked, it immediately began to fight back. Its main attack methods were two: one was to attack with fireballs, and the other was to strike with flames. The flames on its body burst out and swept towards Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan.

At this moment, Yu Xiuyuan's white snake played a huge role, using its physical body to provide a layer of defense for Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan.

"boom!!!"

Despite the impact of the raging flames, the white snake was unharmed, except that its scales turned slightly red.

The White Snake's physical strength is also evident. Although it cannot compare to the level of Golden Luo Sanpao, it is at least stronger than ordinary soul beasts.

As Yu Xiuyuan's strength increases, the White Snake's abilities in all aspects also improve, and her attributes will also change due to Yu Xiuyuan's soul ring.

For example, Yu Xiuyuan's second soul ring is related to fire, and the White Snake also gained a certain fire attribute, but it needs the guidance of soul skills to release the power of fire. In addition to mastering the power of fire, the White Snake also has a certain increase in its resistance to fire.

After blocking the fire demon's skill, Ma Hongjun seized the opportunity and used his third soul skill, Phoenix Wing Soaring, along with his fourth soul skill, Phoenix Roaring Strike. This combo of soul skills almost took down the fire demon.

The subsequent battle was naturally a foregone conclusion; with the cooperation of Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan, the first fire demon was successfully defeated.

Once the first objective is achieved, a new objective will follow, and the battle will continue indefinitely.

Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan did not always fight together; they would also fight independently to hone their individual combat skills.

What is honed in battle is the application and coordination of soul skills, as well as one's reaction ability and grasp of the timing of battle.

As long as there is a comparable target, it is very effective to improve these abilities.

In addition, constant battles also constantly drain one's soul power. When one's soul power is completely depleted before entering a cultivation state, the effectiveness of cultivation can be improved to some extent.

While Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan were training, Flander and Liu Erlong were responsible for ensuring their safety.

Chen Luo was cultivating on the side. His soul power level had reached the limit of level 63, and he would be able to break through in the next two days.

A day passed quickly, and Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan had almost finished clearing out the entire mangrove forest.

In addition to the improvement in combat experience and soul power, they also gained a large number of fiery red crystals.

Chapter 221 Upgrade: The Mighty Flame Annihilates!

As evening fell, Chen Luo's cultivation finally came to an end, and his soul power level successfully reached level sixty-four.

Despite being busy with many things every day, Chen Luo never neglected his cultivation.

Even if he only has a few hours to cultivate, he will try his best and never make excuses for his laziness.

It is precisely because of this diligence that Chen Luo has been able to get to where he is today.

The most direct feeling that the increase in soul power level brought to Chen Luo was that his combat power had been greatly enhanced.

The higher the level of a Soul Master, the more obvious the difference in combat power between each level becomes; this statement is indeed no joke.

Chen Luo is only a Soul Emperor now, yet he already has such a clear feeling.

Of course, soul power level cannot represent everything. In front of players who use cheats, soul power level is just a bunch of numbers.

Chen Luo understands this all too well, even though he never uses cheat codes.

Okay, I only used a little bit of cheating.

Chen Luo opened his eyes and found that only Liu Erlong was left beside him; Flander, Ma Hongjun, and Yu Xiuyuan were nowhere to be seen.

Seeing Chen Luo finish his cultivation, Liu Erlong's face was full of smiles: "You succeeded, congratulations!"

Chen Luo nodded gently: "Mm."

Liu Erlong noticed Chen Luo's slightly puzzled look and said, "Boss Fu, Ma Hongjun, and Yu Xiuyuan have already gone back. I told them to go back first."

"Then let's go back too."

Chen Luo stood up, took Liu Erlong's hand very naturally, and walked towards their residence.

Liu Erlong, on the other hand, looked like a little bird nestled against her, with a happy smile on her face.

Liu Erlong is always so easily satisfied. As long as she can feel the love of the person she likes, she will be very happy. Last time she was angry because Chen Luo went to see Bibi Dong, but it was mostly just her pretending.

She has always been a very easygoing and carefree person, and has never been a petty woman.

However, no woman would be willing to share her man with other women. Even if she wasn't particularly angry inside, she would pretend to be extremely angry. Although she hadn't eaten pork, she had seen pigs run, and Liu Erlong had her own set of ideas.

When he returned to his lodgings, Flanders had already prepared dinner.

"It looks like it was a success."

"Yes, it worked."

"I really envy your talent."

"lucky."

"It was just luck again... Alright, let's eat and try my cooking."

After a brief greeting, everyone took their seats and began to enjoy dinner. Ma Hongjun and Yu Xiuyuan were both very happy to hear the news that Chen Luo had successfully broken through.

Although Flander's cooking didn't look very appealing, it tasted really good. Chen Luo was quite picky about food, but he was very satisfied with the dishes Flander made.
