Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

Ye Li rode a huge white bird and slowly descended from the sky, the bow and arrow in her hand still emitting a faint light. She stood on the bird's back, looking down at the man in black robe with a sharp gaze: "You are so arrogant, who gave you the confidence?"

When Zhang Meng saw Ye Li, he immediately seemed to have found a rescuer. He waved his arms and shouted, "Ye Li! You came just in time! If you were any later, my axe would have become a decoration!"

Ye Li glanced at Zhang Meng, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly: "It seems that you have suffered a lot today."

"Oh, forget it!" Zhang Meng said angrily, "This guy is such a tough opponent. My axe doesn't hurt him at all."

Chu Tianze breathed a sigh of relief, stood firm, and patted the dust off his body: "Fortunately you arrived in time, we were almost tricked by him."

The black-robed man looked at Ye Li coldly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes: "What's the use of having one more woman? You will all die here today."

Ye Li smiled calmly and slowly pulled the bowstring. A blue light condensed on the arrow, as if it contained great power. She said softly, "Whether you can kill us depends on whether you have the ability to do so."

"Humph, arrogant!" The black-robed man roared, waved his hands, and a black energy quickly condensed in his palms, forming a huge dark sphere. There was a suffocating sense of oppression in the air, and the dark sphere seemed to contain the power to destroy everything.

"Come on! I want to see if you can block this move!" The black-robed man laughed and smashed the dark sphere towards Ye Li.

"Do you think you're the only one with a big move?" Ye Li took aim calmly and shot out the arrow in her hand. The arrow pierced the air like a meteor with a blue light and headed straight for the dark sphere.

The two forces met in the air, and a strong light and shock wave burst out, shaking the surrounding trees violently. Zhang Meng and Chu Tian quickly stepped back to avoid being affected.

"Wow, this is too powerful!" Zhang Meng couldn't help but exclaimed, his eyes wide open, "Ye Li, your move is too powerful! Teach me, teach me!"

Ye Li chuckled and said, "You can learn if you want, but wait until you have my precision."

As they were talking, the light gradually dissipated, and the field returned to a moment of silence. However, the man in black robes still stood there, and although he was a little out of breath, he didn't seem to have suffered much damage.

"Your strength is too weak after all." The black-robed man sneered, "The true power of the Dark Cult is not something that mortals like you can resist."

Ye Li frowned slightly: "This guy is really difficult to deal with."

"Then let me try!" Zhang Meng immediately grabbed the giant axe on the ground and rushed towards the man in black robe, "Ye Li, help me lead the charge, and I will be responsible for the cleanup afterwards!"

Ye Li sighed helplessly: "Mengzi, you really only know how to act recklessly."

"Don't underestimate me!" Zhang Meng swung his giant axe and chopped at the black-robed man. However, just as the axe was about to fall, the black-robed man suddenly turned into a ball of black mist and quickly dissipated into the air, avoiding Zhang Meng's attack.

"He ran away again!" Zhang Meng shouted angrily, "Is this guy a ghost? He keeps disappearing!"

"He is not only a ghost, but also a smart ghost." Chu Tian narrowed his eyes and looked around, "He is trying to delay time."

Sure enough, the voice of the man in black robes came from all directions again, with a strong sense of ridicule: "Hahaha, you simply cannot understand the true power of our sect! Today is just a small test, and your failure is a foregone conclusion!"

Zhang Meng looked around, gritting his teeth in anger: "Don't hide if you have the guts, come out and fight openly!"

"Don't worry, we will meet again." The man's voice became farther and farther away, and finally disappeared in the thick fog.

“Damn it!” Zhang Meng punched the ground fiercely and said angrily, “He got away again!”

Ye Li jumped off the bird's back and patted Zhang Meng on the shoulder: "Don't blame yourself too much. This guy is obviously not an easy opponent. He is much more cunning than we expected."

"But he just mentioned 'testing'." Chu Tian pondered, "It means that the Dark Cult is brewing a bigger conspiracy, and we have only touched the surface now."

Ye Li nodded: "Yes, this battle is just the beginning. We have to meet up with Qin Feng and the others as soon as possible and tell them the situation here."

Zhang Meng stood up angrily: "Okay, okay, since that guy has escaped, let's retreat first. This broken valley is really creepy."

Several people quickly decided to leave Ghost Valley and prepare to return to meet Qin Feng and the others. However, just as they turned to leave, a strange noise came from behind them.

"Wait!" Chu Tian suddenly stopped and moved his ears slightly, "Did you hear it?"

Ye Li also immediately became alert, raised her bow and arrow, and looked around vigilantly: "It seems like something is following us."

Zhang Meng pulled out his giant axe, frowning, "No way, we just chased away a black-robed monster, and now there's another new monster?"

Just as he finished speaking, a low roar came from behind them, and then a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the fog.

"What is that?" Zhang Meng widened his eyes, staring at the approaching black shadow.

Ye Li also became nervous: "It looks like a soul beast, but... something seems wrong."

Sure enough, as the black shadow got closer, the three finally saw its appearance clearly - it was a huge wolf-shaped soul beast, its body as black as ink, its eyes glowing blood red, and its mouth dripping with foul saliva.

“Wow, what the hell is this!” Zhang Meng yelled and took a step back, “This thing looks like it’s not something you can mess with!”

"It's a soul beast corrupted by the power of darkness." Ye Li analyzed calmly, with the arrow already on the string, "It seems that the dark sect not only controls humans, but also manipulates soul beasts."

"Then what should we do?" Chu Tian asked, tightening his sword.

Ye Li stared at the soul beast with a sharp gaze: "Since it is a soul beast, we will deal with it according to the method used to deal with soul beasts."

"Hey, this isn't that easy!" Zhang Meng held onto the giant axe, his eyes flashing with fighting spirit, "Leave it to me, I can't wait any longer!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Meng had already rushed forward, his giant axe spinning like a windmill, and slashing at the black wolf soul beast with great momentum. However, just as the axe was about to hit the soul beast, the soul beast suddenly opened its bloody mouth, and a stream of black flames gushed out of its mouth.

"What the hell!" Zhang Meng was caught off guard and quickly rolled over to avoid the flames, almost being burned into barbecue.

"It can also spit fire?" Chu Tian shouted in surprise, quickly swinging his sword to block a few sparks.

Ye Li didn't say much, and quickly drew the bow and shot the arrow, hitting the soul beast's front leg accurately. The soul beast felt pain, let out a shrill roar, ran around wildly, and madly hit the surrounding trees.

"We have to find a way to restrict its movements!" Ye Li shouted, "Mengzi, you go and attract its attention, Chu Tian and I will be responsible for weakening its ability to move."

When Zhang Meng heard the plan, he immediately became excited: "Okay! Watch me!"

He raised his giant axe and rushed towards the black wolf soul beast to attract its attention. Ye Li and Chu Tian seized the opportunity and began to attack the soul beast's limbs, trying to weaken its mobility.
