Lightning sparks flashed all over the place and formed into a dense lighting cage in front of the passage.
Everyone stared at the passage entrance solemnly, waiting for the enemy to appear.
"Ahhh!" As the scream drew closer, everyone suddenly felt a chill running down their spine. Countless terrifying human-shaped souls with hideous faces rushed toward everyone as if they couldn't wait to swallow them alive.
When they touched the lightning cage, they were instantly blasted away several meters, but it didn't stop them from going forward. They were still swarming over fearlessly until Lei Jin's Lightning Prison started to shake.
"We can't go on like this." Lei Jin said solemnly. Droplets of sweat appeared on his forehead as he tried his best to maintain the Lightning Prison.
Lei Feifei moved quickly. She made a few complicated hand seals, and her palms were immediately shone with lightning sparks. She pulled her hands away from each other, and a thick blue lightning net appeared in everyone's sight.
Lei Feifei stepped forward and threw the lightning net at the Lightning Prison. The net passed through the lightning prison quickly and instantly pushed all the soul creatures away.
"Break!" Lei Feifei slammed her palms together and shouted loudly.
Boom!
The lightning net immediately exploded, blasting all the soul creatures away and managed to turn several of them into nothingness.
Seeing this, Lei Jin quickly took a golden staff out, followed by an instant flash of lightning. His figure appeared in front of the group of soul creatures, and the golden staff that was glowing golden struck down violently against them.
Boom! Boom!
The extremely strong profound fluctuations caused the entire passage to tremble intensely. Every time Lei Jin's staff struck down, golden lightning sparks would flash everywhere, eradicating a large portion of soul creatures.
Because the passage was narrowed, Lei Feifei and others could only watch Lei Jin deal with the enemy and hoped he could kill all of them.
Yun Lintian's eyes fixated on the soul creatures while asking Hongyue. "This is a soul devourer?"
"No," Hongyue replied immediately. "These are lowest-rank creatures."
Yun Lintian was stunned. "Lowest-rank? You said these are lowest rank creatures?" Just a mere lowest-rank one already this powerful. What about the boss then?
"Already forgot what I told you before? This soul devourer's strength might even surpass the Monarch Profound Realm." Hongyue rolled her eyes.
Yun Lintian frowned as he asked. "Are you certain that I can handle it?"
"What do you think?" Hongyue curled her lips.
Yun Lintian started to hesitate. Should he run away now or go further? After all, he wasn't sure whether there was a Soul Pond, as Hongyue had speculated.
While Yun Lintian was thinking, Lei Jin continued to swing his staff at the soul creatures. Countless lightning profound energy crazily exploded, so dense that it seemed as though it was the anger of the Lightning God.
The gloomy atmosphere in the mine was dyed golden by the lightning profound energy, and every time it exploded, the deafening sounds seemed to nearly tearing everyone's eardrums apart.
In the midst of the thousands profound lightning explosions, the group of soul creatures lets out shrill cries of immense pain, and they tried their best to attack Lei Jin with their illusory hands and feet.
"Elder Lei is truly worthy of being one of the strongest protectors." An Lang looked at Lei Jin with admiration. He felt he was extremely lucky to witness Lei Jin's might today.
Meanwhile, Zhou Qingyu, Lei Feifei, and Qin Wuji didn't relax their vigilance in the slightest, as they could feel there was an even more terrifying figure behind these soul creatures.
Bang!!
Following the disappearance of the last bit of lightning, all the soul creatures had already disappeared from everyone's sight. Lei Jin stopped his movement and scanned the surrounding with his Spiritual Sense before putting the staff away and returning to Lei Feifei's side.
"Thank you, Uncle Jin." Zhou Qingyu said gratefully.
Lei Jin waved his hand dismissively. "This is nothing… I believe all of you have already aware of this. We have to come up with a proper plan to deal with this situation. I'm afraid our strength is insufficient in front of that terrifying existence."
Ji Zhiyin suddenly said. "Please don't get me wrong, Elder Lei. Are you sure that we couldn't handle it?"
"Can you deal with these things?" Lei Jin asked as he pointed at where the soul creatures were killed.
Ji Zhiyin shook her head and said. "I certainly cannot do it, but with everyone here, I don't think we cannot deal with it."
Lei Jin looked at Ji Zhiyin for a while and let out a sigh, unbothered to speak further.
Lei Feifei thought for a moment and looked at Zhou Qingyu. "Why don't we place the rewards on the Mystic Pavilion?"
Hearing this, An Lang suddenly interjected. "We can't do that!" Everyone turned to look at him, and he said further. "This mine is our lifeblood. If it's exposing to the outsiders, I'm afraid we cannot continue our business further."
"I understand what you mean, but we certainly cannot handle this alone. As you can see, the strength of these things isn't low at all. What about its leader?" Lei Feifei responded.
An Lang opened his mouth and did not know what to say. It was true, as Lei Feifei said, but he was unwilling to let outsiders enter this place.
Zhou Qingyu's brows tightly locked together. She was falling into a dilemma once again. It was impossible for her to open the mine for outsiders, but she also couldn't deal with the unknown existence in this place… What to do now?
At this moment, Yun Lintian said. "Why don't we set up a killing formation here?" His voice immediately attracted everyone's attention. He said further. "With Sister Lei and Senior Lei here, we can use a killing formation called Seven Thunder Annihilation."
"Seven Thunder Annihilation? Are you joking? That's one of the most complicated formations you are talking about. Do you think we have a high-level formation master here?" Ji Zhiyin snorted coldly.
Yun Lintian glanced at her and pointed at himself. "Of course. You have me here."
