In Nanjiang City, smoke billowed, and the sounds of battle thundered.

    The demonized half-demon general Luo Feng was massive, like a mountain towering over the city.

    The houses and civilian buildings in Nanjiang City were only as high as his knees, making him appear even more imposing.

    He swung his demonic sword continuously, and the pitch-black sword qi swept through the city, reaping lives.

    The intense battle in the city’s central plains was forced to a halt.

    Luo Feng’s indiscriminate killing of both demons and humans forced both sides to temporarily cease fire.

    Leaders of the humans and demons soared into the sky, attempting to stop Luo Feng.

    However, the Startling Swan Immortal Sword, now demonized, was wildly ferocious, and its sword qi sweeps left almost no adversary standing.

    Those figures flying around Luo Feng were the top powerhouses of their respective races.

    Yet, at this moment, they dared not approach the demonized Luo Feng, only engaging from a distance, trying to stop his slaughter.

    Li Muyang controlled Jiang Xiaoyu to run through the chaotic city, constantly seeing half-demons on the roadside cutting down any living beings they encountered.

    Blood flowed like rivers, and the cries of the dying filled the air, making Nanjiang City, which had been full of celebratory cheers just the day before, seem like a distant memory.

    This time, Li Muyang easily controlled Jiang Xiaoyu to reach the broken bridge in the city center.

    The desolate surface of the Soul Drowning Lake was still, with no ripples or people in sight.

    Li Muyang controlled Jiang Xiaoyu to walk onto the broken bridge and then jumped straight down into the water.

    Once submerged, the Soul Drowning Token in Jiang Xiaoyu’s hand emitted a faint glow.

    The glow coated Jiang Xiaoyu with a transparent film, allowing him to breathe underwater.

    The faint light from the Soul Drowning Token also formed an arrow, pointing forward.

    Following the direction indicated by the arrow, Jiang Xiaoyu swam on.

    No fish could be seen in the dark and eerie depths of the Soul Drowning Lake.

    The lakebed’s entwined weeds swayed in the water like boneless arms waving.

    Jiang Xiaoyu swam deep into the Soul Drowning Lake until he finally saw the ancient well Granny Gu had mentioned.

    A well in the middle of the lake was an odd sight.

    Jiang Xiaoyu swam over and settled beside the well.

    From a third-person perspective, Li Muyang saw a pale red orb floating inside the well.

    A series of cold chains crisscrossed inside the well, tightly binding the orb.

    “Is this orb the remnant soul Granny Gu mentioned?”

    Li Muyang prepared to release the orb.

    But at that moment, the game’s background music suddenly turned eerie and chilling.

    A fat, shadowy figure shrouded in black mist swam out from the depths of the Soul Drowning Lake’s weeds.

    It raised its bizarrely large sword, waving it to block the attack, and nearly all of the seventeen knives were deflected, with only one hitting its target.

    【-799】

    The damage from the Soul-Cleaving Flying Knives was still astonishing, but it was a pity that only one strike landed.

    After blocking all the knives, the Green-Haired Behemoth immediately shook its body, and the long green hairs trailing behind it writhed like water snakes, chasing after Li Muyang.

    The dense green hairs covered the sky and the earth.

    Li Muyang constantly changed direction in the water, trying to escape the hairs’ pursuit, but the eerie hairs relentlessly followed and eventually caught up with him.

    【Victory or defeat is a common occurrence in warfare. Hero, please try again】

    Li Muyang, failing once again, rubbed his brow in silence.

    “It’

    The guardian of the well, the BOSS, had a fragile health bar, even lower than that of the Shape-Shifter Master.

    But its bizarre skill of ignoring defense was really troublesome.

    A head-on battle with it was almost certain death.

    And when using long-range skills against it, it could wield its large sword to block it.

    “It’s not like I should just rush over and hack at it face to face, right?”

    Li Muyang entered the game skeptically and loaded his save again.

    This time, he didn’t use long-range skills but charged directly at the black fog with the Dharma-Annihilation Wheel in hand.

    When the monster with the eerie BMG emerged from the waterweeds, Li Muyang swung the wheel in his hand and struck it hard.

    【-116】

    The Dharma-Annihilation Wheel slashed across the monster’s body, causing the large bizarre creature to stiffen momentarily.

    Seizing the opportunity, Li Muyang quickly swung the Dharma-Annihilation Wheel at the monster again.

    【-97】

    【-104】

    After two damage numbers popped up, the monster’s stiffened state ended.

    The next second, it roared and swung its large sword at Li Muyang.

    Li Muyang rolled to dodge and swung the wheel for another heavy hit.

    【-87】

    Seeing the damage numbers and that the monster didn’t throw any green hairs, Li Muyang finally confirmed that close combat was the way to go.

    He had to engage it in close combat to suppress it, not giving it a chance to shake its head or use its skills.
