Star Journey: Destiny Returns

The morning sun shone through the mist, illuminating every corner of Cangling Valley, exuding a mysterious and tranquil atmosphere. Yet, Yunxuan and Yaoyue's hearts were filled with anxiety. The afterglow of a recent clash with the enemy still lingered in the air, as if foreshadowing even more intense trials to come.

"We can't let our guard down," Yao Yue whispered, her eyes scanning the surroundings, vigilantly sensing any changes. "This place is filled with unknown dangers."

Yunxuan nodded. Although he understood Yaoyue's caution, his adventurous spirit was hard to suppress. "We just defeated the enemy. Shouldn't we take this opportunity to explore deeper secrets?"

"Yes, but we must proceed with caution, especially in such a mysterious place." Yao Yue responded calmly, with a decisive glint in her eyes.

"You're always so cautious. Can't you just relax a bit?" Yun Xuan smiled helplessly, trying to lighten the mood with a relaxed tone. "I just hope to see more beauty in this world."

Yaoyue sighed softly, her heart mingling with anticipation and worry for Yunxuan. "Beauty and danger often coexist. We must learn to strike a balance."

As the two were talking, a low roar suddenly came from the distant fog, as if the earth was shaking. Instantly alert, the two looked in the direction of the sound.

"What is that?" Yao Yue frowned, feeling uneasy.

"I don't know, but we have to go and take a look." Yunxuan said firmly, there was no room for retreat.

As they slowly approached the source of the sound, the scene before them was awe-inspiring. Amidst the towering mountain walls, a gigantic demonic beast could be seen engaged in a fierce struggle with several other explorers. Its massive body, covered in strange runes and shimmering with blue light, created a powerful aura that shook the air around it.

"Look at that monster, there are many symbols of the ultimate taste!" Yun Xuan's eyes flashed with excitement, knowing that this was their chance to gain power. "We must strive for that ultimate taste!"

"This is dangerous, Yunxuan!" Yaoyue warned urgently, sensing the gravity of the situation. "We can't face that monster with our current strength!"

"But we can't give up this opportunity!" Yun Xuan's eyes lit up with fighting spirit. He knew that only by gaining greater strength could he better face the challenges of the future. "We must give it a try!"

Under Yunxuan's encouragement, Yaoyue, though still hesitant, finally nodded in agreement. She took a deep breath, quickly gathered her thoughts, and prepared for the upcoming battle.

"Then, let's act separately. You attract its attention, and I'll look for an opportunity to attack." Yunxuan whispered, and the plan began to take shape.

"Okay, but be careful!" Yaoyue clenched her fists and prayed silently in her heart.

Just as the two were about to act, the monster's roar became even more deafening, clearly sensing their presence. The monster turned its massive body, its gaze blazing, and charged straight at Yunxuan.

"Hurry, go!" Yaoyue shouted, feeling nervous, but she knew Yunxuan's determination.

Yunxuan immediately activated his spiritual energy, the ground beneath his feet trembling slightly from his power. He rushed towards the monster, trying to close quickly without being seen. Meanwhile, Yaoyue carefully circled the monster, searching for the perfect moment to strike.

"Roar!" The monster roared again. The powerful sound shook the entire valley like thunder, making people feel extremely oppressive.

"Yunxuan, hurry!" Yaoyue's heart tightened, seeing that the monster could attack at any moment. She suddenly leaped up and unleashed a beam of spiritual power, ready to deliver a fatal blow when the monster lost its focus.

"Go!" Yun Xuan roared, and the spiritual power around him suddenly gathered and turned into a dazzling beam of light, rushing straight into the monster's eyes.

"Puff!" The light beam hit the monster directly, causing it to retreat in pain and cover its eyes with its claws in panic.

"Take advantage of now!" Yao Yue was delighted and took out her spiritual sword without hesitation. The sword body was glowing blue and instantly attacked the monster.

"The interweaving of light and shadow!" She shouted softly, and the magic sword drew an elegant arc in the air and pierced the heart of the monster.

However, the demon beast was clearly not willing to be outdone. In the brief moment of confusion, it quickly adjusted its body shape and swung its huge claws like a landslide, heading straight for Yaoyue.

"Yaoyue, be careful!" Yunxuan yelled and hurriedly mobilized his spiritual power to protect her.

"Don't worry!" Yao Yue responded calmly, knowing she had to give it her all. Her spirit sword slashed through the air, attempting to block the monster's attack.

"Bang!" The two collided, a deafening roar echoing throughout Cangling Valley. Yao Yue's powerful spiritual power and the monster's ferocious attack countered each other, filling the air with a pungent, burnt smell.

"Keep going!" Yun Xuan's heart tightened, and he rushed forward without hesitation, trying his best to help. The two of them combined their strength to continuously attack the monster, trying to force it back.

"How dare you challenge me!" The monster's roar became more and more deafening, and the runes around its body began to flicker, revealing its anger and power.

"I will never retreat!" Yun Xuan gritted his teeth, anger rising within him. He knew that only by giving his all could he achieve victory. At this moment, he concentrated all his strength on the spirit sword, pointing it directly at the monster's heart.

"Let's go!" Yaoyue also did not hesitate. The two of them worked together, wielded their weapons, and launched a fierce attack on the monster.

Light and claw shadows intertwined, and dazzling sparks continuously burst out in the air. The battle intensified, and deafening crashes and roars echoed in the Cangling Valley.

"How dare you, a pair of weaklings, hinder me!" The monster roared angrily, and immense strength surged out of its body in an instant, as if it was going to knock the two down in an instant.

"Don't give up!" Yao Yue suppressed her fear, her eyes gleaming with unwavering faith. Her spiritual power began to rapidly increase, transforming into a powerful beam of light that charged directly at the monster.

"We must not fail!" Yunxuan and Yaoyue's voices intertwined during the battle, as if merging into an indestructible force. Their tacit understanding grew stronger, and their spiritual energy reached its peak at this moment.

"Break!" With the two of them working together for the final blow, powerful spiritual power surged out like a tide, turning into a dazzling light, and instantly crashed into the chest of the monster.

"Puff!" The monster was struck by a powerful force, its massive body instantly tumbling backwards, crashing into the mountain wall with a resounding bang. Its runes flickered, as if it were struggling, but it ultimately collapsed to the ground with a mournful wail.

"We... succeeded!" Yunxuan and Yaoyue felt an incredible joy in their hearts at the same time. They looked at the fallen monster in disbelief, their inner excitement beyond words.

"Go and see if you can get the ultimate power!" Yao Yue shouted, looking forward to the outcome of all this.

They cautiously approached the monster and found that it was emitting a faint glow, as if waiting for their arrival. As they approached, the runes on the monster began to light up and emit an alluring fragrance.

"This is... the most delicious breath!" Yunxuan's eyes flashed with excitement, realizing that they had finally found the source of power.
