Compared to the last trip to Siberia, Dragon Scale Team's overall strength had indeed improved a lot. As the captain in name, Fan Long was naturally extraordinary, and her strength had increased even more recently.
In the past, Dragon Scale Team would not be able to fight against Half-spirit Level experts. And now? Half-spirit Level was nothing in the Dragon Scale Team.
However, this time, what they met was not a figure on the Half-spirit Level level, but a shadow.
What was a shadow? This was the essence of the island's thousands of years of history. Although a large portion of it came from the martial arts of China, it was greatly enhanced by them.
The strength of Lower Shadow was at the Lower Spirit Level level, but it was far beyond what ordinary profound experts could compare to.
Previously, Yan Yun had also belittled Shadow and treated them as ordinary Lower Spirit Level experts. However, during the battle with the two Lower Shadow s, Yan Yun realized that Lower Shadow was definitely not as simple as ordinary Lower Spirit Level s.
Other than Lower Shadow, there was also the middle shadow, the upper shadow, the sacred shadow, and the divine shadow that only existed in legends.
After killing two more Lower Shadow by fluke, Yan Yun rushed into the deep mountains without stopping. As if he was flying, he ran through the snow, the trees on both sides quickly retreated, and his figure gradually became blurry.
Hence, even though the ninja were split into two squads and moving forward, they weren't too far apart from each other. This was probably to prevent any unforeseen events from happening, so the two teams could help each other out in time.

In the gloomy forest, the zero-degree Demon Hunt Squad's spear was laid horizontally on the ground, the body of the spear completely shattered.
Fan Long clenched his teeth and broke the katana, a broken blade was still stuck in his thigh, blood still flowed down from the bottom of his pants, his entire body was stained with blood, almost not a single part of it was intact, there was even a gloomy wound on his abdomen, blood was flowing out from it.
With such a severe injury, if not for Fan Long, ordinary people would have already died.
In front of them, Lower Shadow was sneering at the two of them, as if a cat was looking at two rats. The contempt in its eyes was not hidden at all, and in its hand was a brand-new katana.
"Zero, hurry up and leave." Fan Long pushed himself to zero degree zero once again, and stood in front of zero degree once again.
"If there was another person buried here, it wouldn't have been so lonely." Zero degree.
Fan Long wanted to curse out loud, but facing this kind of persistent and silent man, he was unable to curse out loud.
"Alright! If we die in battle, the boss will avenge us. " Fan Long said with a bitter smile, and then looked towards Lower Shadow. However, if we want to die, you have to at least leave something behind. "
Facing this man who was going all out, he had some reservations. Firstly, the other party's strength was not bad, and secondly, the most important thing was that this guy was not afraid of death.
I can die, but at least you have to leave something behind.
This was what Fan Long was thinking, and was also what the Lower Shadow was wary of. It was obvious that he did not want to be injured, after all, in Hua Xia here, once he was injured, it would not be easy for him to return to island nation.
Roar ~ ~
Fan Long roared in rage, and rushed forward again. At this moment, Fan Long was like a dragonfly that had fallen into the lake, unable to fly any further.
Fan Long was a lot slower, he felt that his body was extremely heavy, his entire body was filled with fatigue, he wanted to fall down and sleep.
But he couldn't. He had to move forward.
BOOM!
As expected, Fan Long flew back once again. This was already the first time he had been defeated, but Fan Long himself could not even remember how many times this had happened.
He could not remember that Lower Shadow either, but at least, he had done it thirty times.
"This time, I won't be able to get up!"
However, just as the thought of Lower Shadow appeared in his mind, Fan Long surprisingly stood up once again.
Lower Shadow's heart jumped, he truly could not understand, what kind of strength was that as he fell to the ground, supporting this man to climb back up again and again. Lower Shadow calmly calculated, this man's strength was close to zero, and he had lost too much blood, so he should have directly fallen into a deep coma.
But he did not. He stood up again.
"This guy is too scary. I can't let him stay here, or else he will become a huge threat in the future."
's willpower was too strong, he could not let this kind of person stay, because he already had the mental fortitude to become a super expert. If he stayed, he would become an unrivaled enemy in the future.
Lower Shadow was calculating the gains and losses in his heart, and he was already prepared to kill Fan Long without any qualms.
Without any further hesitation, Lower Shadow began to move as he thought, a gust of wind swept past, and countless hidden weapons screamed out, not only did they cover Fan Long within them, they could not even avoid him. At the same time, the katana Knife Qi in Lower Shadow's hands burst forth, and a sharp, indomitable aura directly sealed Fan Long.
An unprecedented killing intent enveloped Fan Long and Zero Degree. The two of them knew that their Lower Shadow had finally lost its patience and were prepared to kill the two of them.
"Am I going to die?" Fan Long revealed a bitter smile. Before he dies, I need to get him to leave something behind. "
This time, not only Fan Long, Zero Degree was already prepared to die, but his body was too weak, and he was unable to withstand a single strike from the Lower Shadow, so much so that his aura became unbearable.
He wanted to stand in front of Fan Long, but things happened in the opposite direction. The speed of his Lower Shadow was way too fast, which was completely out of proportion to the speed of his crawling.
He would not retreat. He chose to accompany him in death, since Fan Long dying here alone was too lonely, so he had to accompany him in death.
Fan Long used the last bit of energy in his body to lift the broken blade with much difficulty. This was the first attack that required a lot of effort, and was also the attack that had no end in life, so if Fan Long used up all the energy in his body, even if the Lower Shadow did not kill him, he would still die from exhaustion.
However, just as Fan Long was full of determination to die and was preparing to make his final attack, a loud curse suddenly cut off his movements.
"I forced you to do this."
Yan Yun scolded. He followed the footsteps of the two people and rushed over without the slightest hesitation, just in time to see the Lower Shadow unleashing a killing blow. Fan Long, on the other hand, was like a bloody person, struggling to crawl at zero degrees.
Yan Yun's eyes were wide opened, his heart was filled with killing intent, as he instantly rushed towards the devil soul.
A purple glow soared to the sky, and the incomparably powerful aura immediately sealed that person's Lower Shadow.
RUMBLE ~ ~!
When the Knife Qi descended, the Lower Shadow had no choice but to change its direction to block, the imposing manner of the approaching person caused him to be shocked. Although this strike could kill Fan Long with 0 degrees celsius, he himself would definitely be smashed into pulp by the purple blade light.
This was not what he wanted to see. He could only change the direction of his attack.
Amidst the loud sound, snowflakes soared into the sky and were smashed into pieces by the incomparable force of Qi. Yan Yun's figure flashed and appeared right in front of Fan Long and Zero Degrees.
"Sorry for being late." Yan Yun said as he turned his head back to the two, wiping away the hidden weapons that were flying in front of him.
Tears appeared in the eyes of the two courageous men as they shook their heads vigorously.
Yan Yun smiled apologetically, pointed at the Lower Shadow in front of him and said: "I'll kill him and take revenge for you all."
BOOM!
Yan Yun no longer hesitated, the aura around him had reached its peak, the aura around him had solidified. Taking a step forward, he arrived in front of the Lower Shadow who was still in shock, and with a punch, sealed off all paths of retreat for the Lower Shadow, he immediately threw a punch forward.
Puff ~ ~ ~
With just how strong of a strength Yan Yun had, this person's Lower Shadow was simply incapable of resisting, and was sent flying with a single punch.
Facing a single Lower Shadow, Yan Yun obviously would not waste any more effort, and this was also why he had suddenly comprehended a new blade technique, and his strength had unknowingly risen by quite a bit.
This was simply a one-sided battle, his Lower Shadow s had lost the initiative in such a panic, let alone the fact that the other party was stronger than him.
Yan Yun was a natural born aggressive participant, once he took advantage of the opportunity, the opponent would not be able to turn the tables in front of him.
Puff!
Yan Yun seized the opportunity and slashed diagonally. The sharp devil soul directly cut the Lower Shadow into half.
A streak of blood ran from his left shoulder to his right waist. His upper body slid down, and he did not even have the time to let out a wail before he fell onto the ground.
The entire battle did not take more than five minutes to finish, and Yan Yun rarely used the blade techniques he had comprehended along the way. It was not because he did not want to use them, but because he was cautious.
In the dark forest, it was completely dark, it was unknown if there were any enemies lurking, but the sword technique was Yan Yun's trump card, he did not want to reveal it.
After his Lower Shadow had been cut off, Yan Yun quickly returned to Fan Long and Zero Degree's side, and helped them check their injuries.
His close combat ability was too weak, and once he was hit by's Lower Spirit Level, he would die.
Fan Long looked at it with a frown. If he had been even a step later, Fan Long would have definitely died!
Yan Yun was a little lucky, but at the same time, he was blaming himself. He had greatly underestimated Ying's strength this time, which was why such a situation had occurred.
"Boss …" Cough … You don't have to blame yourself, I won't die. " Fan Long forced himself to laugh.
"I was wrong this time." Yan Yun said. Although Fan Long was severely injured, the quality of their bodies had changed a lot. As long as it wasn't a fatal injury, it would be extremely difficult to die under normal circumstances.
If Yan Yun had come half a step later, it would be hard for the immortals to save him since he would not have to suffer a fatal injury after draining all the energy from his body.
While Yan Yun was treating Fan Long's injuries, he went to search for the location of the "Earth Profound Stone". This was a great treasure and they definitely could not lose it here.
But when Zero returned, he was empty-handed.
"Leader, the Earth Profound Stone has disappeared. It's very strange." Zero degree said.
Yan Yun frowned, then suddenly looked towards a place not far away and roared: "Get out here right now!"
Hualala ~ ~!
A sword qi descended from the sky and went straight for Yan Yun's head. This was definitely an extremely profound assassination technique and Yan Yun clearly felt that the person who came was far away, but he didn't expect that the killing intent instantly appeared above his head.
Yan Yun did not retreat, because he was beside Fan Long, and if he retreated, Fan Long would truly be in danger.
Furious, Yan Yun grabbed the devil soul, and the Knife Qi rushed up, instantly destroying that bizarre sword qi.
"Huh?"
Secretly, a surprised voice came out, as though he was a little stunned by Yan Yun's reaction speed and the sharpness of the Knife Qi.
Yan Yun did not say anything. It was normal for his Knife Qi to be powerful, because his profound energy was that of a Mysterious Earth Force.
"I'll say it again. Get the hell out of here, or else …" Yan Yun's black hair danced around him as he stood there like a demonic god, roaring angrily.
