Solution

The correct option is D will + be + the present participle (the base verb + -ing)
Option A is incorrect since the construction is future simple.

Option C is the construction of future perfect continuous. Therefore, it is incorrect.

Option D again is incorrect as it is a construction of future simple.

Option B is correct. The construction "will be" indicates that the action will occur in the future and the present participle "-ing" indicates that the action will not happen in an instant; it will have a duration.
