Chapter 494 News
The Demon City Lord frowned, and after a moment he slowly said: "Pass my order, strengthen the defense of the Demon City, send out elite spies, and make sure to find the trace of that human. At the same time, summon the major demon kings in the city to discuss countermeasures."
The demons took the order and left, and the atmosphere in the Demon City instantly became tense and solemn.
The major demon kings came one after another, their faces were serious, and they all understood the seriousness of this incident.
"Lord, that human is powerful, we can't underestimate him." A demon king said.
"That's right, the Black Wind Demon King was defeated by him. According to the current news, he has devoured the essence of five demon kings, and we must act cautiously." Another demon king echoed.
The Lord nodded slightly, and his eyes swept across the demon kings present with a deep look.
"This man is indeed difficult to deal with, but we in the demon city cannot sit still and wait for death. Now he is in the dark, and we are in the light, so we must find a way to lure him out."
A tall demon king stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Lord, why don't we set a trap and lure that human into the trap."
After this, the demon kings looked at each other and began to discuss in a low voice.
Some demon kings thought that this method was too risky and might bring greater disasters to the demon city;
Some demon kings thought that this was the only feasible way at present and it was worth a try.
The Lord raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. He narrowed his eyes slightly and thought about the feasibility of this proposal.
"How to set a trap?" asked the Lord.
The tall demon king immediately responded: "Lord, we can spread the news that there is an extremely precious treasure somewhere, and this treasure has a huge attraction to that human. When he appears, we will surround him in one fell swoop."
"But what if he doesn't fall for it?" Another demon king questioned.
The tall demon king said confidently: "We can arrange some illusions to make him mistakenly think that this treasure is closely related to his cultivation or purpose. Moreover, we can set up a powerful formation around the trap to ensure that he will find it difficult to escape once he enters."
The Lord pondered for a moment and finally nodded.
"Okay, let's do it this way. But we must be careful and not let him detect our intentions."
So, the demon city began to set traps in full swing.
They spread the news about the treasure everywhere, and at the same time carefully prepared formations and ambushes.
In the boundless swamp, Fang Yue, the fox girl and the old turtle were moving forward cautiously.
The swamp was filled with strange fog, making it difficult to see the road ahead.
Fang Yue looked solemn, always alert to the possible dangers around him.
The fox girl snuggled up to him tightly, revealing a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.
The old turtle frowned and kept thinking about how to deal with it.
"This swamp is full of unknown dangers, we must be extra careful." Fang Yue said in a low voice.
The fox girl nodded gently, "Fang Yue, we have to find a safe place as soon as possible, otherwise we may encounter danger at any time."
Turtle Lao pondered for a moment and said, "We have to pay attention to the surrounding environment to see if there is any place that can be used. Maybe we can find a hidden place to hide temporarily."
They continued to trek through the swamp, taking every step with extreme caution.
Suddenly, a strange sound came from a distance, breaking the silence of the swamp.
Fang Yue immediately stopped and looked in the direction of the sound with vigilant eyes.
The fox girl and turtle Lao also became nervous and prepared to deal with danger.
The sound was getting closer and closer, as if some huge monster was approaching.
Fang Yue held the weapon in his hand tightly, leaning forward slightly, ready to meet the possible attack at any time.
The fox girl's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. She stared nervously at the direction where the sound came from, holding the corner of Fang Yue's clothes tightly with both hands.
Turtle Lao quickly mobilized the magic power in his body, ready to cast a spell to protect everyone at the critical moment.
As the sound approached, the fog in the swamp seemed to be stirred up, becoming more bizarre and unpredictable.
Fang Yue's eyes became sharper, and he tried hard to see the impending danger through the fog.
Finally, a huge black shadow loomed in the fog. It was huge and exuded a strong sense of oppression.
Fang Yue took a deep breath and whispered, "Everyone be careful and prepare for battle."
Fox Girl and Turtle Old Man nodded silently, staring at the black shadow intently.
As the black shadow gradually approached, they finally saw its true face - a huge swamp monster.
"Wait a minute, this is my own monster!" At this time, Turtle Old Man suddenly spoke.
Without waiting for Fang Yue and Fox Girl to question, it continued to say, "Old friend, I haven't seen you for so many years!"
Turtle Old Man's words surprised Fang Yue and Fox Girl. They stared at Turtle Old Man and the huge swamp monster with wide eyes.
The swamp monster seemed to have responded to Turtle Old Man's words. It lowered its head slightly, with a hint of doubt and memory in its eyes.
"Old Turtle, do you know this monster?" Fang Yue asked softly.
In the monster world, there are also some powerful monsters that cannot transform due to bloodline reasons.
Old Turtle nodded slightly, and said with a hint of emotion: "Many years ago, I met it once in this swamp.
It helped me at that time, but I didn't expect to meet it again today. Although it can't transform, its strength is extremely powerful. Here, we are safe for the time being."
Fang Yue, Fox Girl and Turtle Old Man continued to explore in the boundless swamp under the protection of the swamp monster. They followed the footsteps of the swamp monster carefully, hoping to find a safer hiding place.
Finally, under the leadership of the swamp monster, they came to a hidden secret place. This place is surrounded by dense vegetation, and the surrounding fog is thinner than other places, as if there is a layer of mysterious power guarding this place.
Fang Yue carefully observed this place, and a glimmer of hope surged in his heart. "It looks safe here. Maybe we can temporarily avoid the pursuit of the demon city here."
Fox Girl also nodded, with a hint of joy in her eyes. "I hope this can be our safe haven."
Turtle Old Man said cautiously: "We can't take it lightly. Although it looks safe here, we still have to take precautions."
~~~~~~~
The next day.
In this hidden secret place, Fang Yue decided to seize the time to refine the essence of the Black Wind Demon King to integrate the unique skills of the Five Spirits.
He found a relatively quiet corner, sat cross-legged, slowly closed his eyes, and began to adjust his breath.
Fang Yue's mind was immersed in his body, guiding the essence of the Black Wind Demon King to flow slowly in his meridians.
These essences contain powerful power, but are also full of wildness and violence.
Fang Yue carefully controlled them and integrated them into his own skills bit by bit.
As time went by, fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on Fang Yue's forehead.
The process of refining the essence is not easy. He needs to constantly fight against the power in the essence, tame it and use it for himself.
But he has a firm belief in his heart. He knows that only by successfully integrating the five spirits into one can they have a greater chance of fighting against the pursuit of the demon city.
While Fang Yue is working hard to refine the essence, the world outside the secret land is not peaceful.
At the same time, Old Turtle is also concentrating on cracking the secret text on the bell.
He sat in a corner of the secret land, holding the bell in his hand, his eyes full of thought and concentration.
Turtle's fingers gently stroked the patterns on the bell, feeling the mysterious power contained in it.
Those ancient symbols and patterns seemed to be telling a long story, and Turtle tried to find clues from them.
Various possible interpretation methods kept emerging in his mind, trying to connect these symbols with the history and legends of the demon world he knew.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Turtle's brows were sometimes locked and sometimes relaxed.
In the process of deciphering the ciphertext, Turtle also felt a sense of pressure.
He knew that this bell might hide a vital secret, and whether they could solve this secret would have a significant impact on their survival and future in the demon world.
Suddenly, Turtle's fingers stopped on a special symbol, and his eyes lit up.
As if he had found the key clue, he began to study this symbol and the surrounding patterns more deeply.
After careful thinking and reasoning, Turtle seemed to gradually understand something.
There was a hint of excitement on his face, but at the same time he was more cautious, because he knew that just a preliminary understanding was far from enough.
Turtle stood up excitedly and was about to find Fang Yue and Fox Girl to share this discovery.
At this time, Fang Yue just finished refining the essence of the Black Wind Demon King and slowly opened his eyes.
Fox Girl: "Your injury is healed! How do you feel now?"
Fox Girl and Turtle only thought that Fang Yue was injured when he led the Black Wind Demon King away, but they didn't know that he was injured when he killed the Black Wind Demon King.
Fang Yue was slightly stunned, then realized that the fox girl and the old turtle didn't know that he had killed the Black Wind Demon King and refined his essence. He said calmly: "It's okay now, and I feel that my strength has recovered a lot."
The fox girl showed joy in her eyes, "That's good, I was so worried just now."
The old turtle also stepped forward, looking relieved, "It's good that you're okay. Fang Yue, I have made a major discovery in cracking the bell code."
Fang Yue immediately became interested, "Old turtle, what did you find? Tell me quickly."
The old turtle said solemnly: "I found that the code on this bell seems to be related to an ancient legend. Legend has it that there is a mysterious place that hides the power that can change the pattern of the demon world. And this bell may be the key to finding that mysterious place."
The fox girl covered her mouth in surprise, "Then don't we have new hope? If we can find that mysterious place, maybe we don't have to be afraid anymore. The pursuit of the demon city. "
Fang Yue frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said: "But this is just a legend. We can't be sure whether this mysterious place really exists. Moreover, even if it exists, it is not easy to find it. "
Turtle nodded in agreement, "Yes, Fang Yue is right. But this at least provides us with a direction. We can avoid the pursuit of the demon city while looking for clues to this mysterious place. "
The fox girl said with some concern: "What if the people of the demon city find us first?"
Fang Yue's eyes were firm, "We must be more cautious and use the concealment of this secret place to delay the time of being discovered as much as possible. At the same time, speed up the search for clues to the mysterious place. "
Turtle also said: "Fang Yue is right, we can't sit and wait for death. We must work together to meet the next challenge. "
At this time, some news about the demon city was also passed on.
The patrolling wind demon king of the demon city has another secret treasure pointing to the treasure land!
Fang Yue, Fox Girl and Gui Lao were all shocked when they heard the news.
Fang Yue frowned and said in a deep voice: "At this time, news of another secret treasure appeared among the demon clan. I don't know if it is true or not. Maybe it is a trap!"
After all, it was such a coincidence.
They had just gotten acquainted with each other, and there was news over there.
It really made him have to doubt.
The fox girl looked worried: "Then what should we do? If we don't go, what if we miss the real treasure? But if we go, we are afraid of falling into the trap of the demon city."
After thinking for a moment, Turtle Lao said: "We can't act blindly. Let's observe the situation first and see if the news is true before making a decision.
At the same time, we cannot relax in our search for clues to the mysterious place, after all, that is where our real hope lies. "
The fox girl nodded: "Old Turtle is right. We must stay vigilant and not be fooled by Demon City's schemes."
In order to verify the authenticity of this news, Fang Yue decided to sneak into Demon City. Fox Girl and Turtle Lao were both shocked when they heard this decision.
The fox girl quickly grabbed Fang Yue and said worriedly: "Fang Yue, the demon city is heavily guarded. It is too dangerous for you to sneak in like this."
Fang Yue looked firm and said: "Now we cannot remain passive, we must take the initiative to find out the truth. The news about this secret treasure is too strange. If we don't figure it out, we will never be able to find the mysterious place with peace of mind. I will act carefully and try my best. Don’t expose yourself.”
Turtle Lao frowned and thought for a moment before saying: "Fang Yue is right, but you must be extremely careful. Fox Girl and I will wait for news from you secretly. If something happens, we will also find a way to deal with you." ”
Fang Yue nodded and began to carefully prepare a plan to sneak into the demon city.
He used his concealment skills to converge his aura to the extreme, and then cautiously moved towards the demon city.
On the way to Demon City, Fang Yue avoided the patrol team sent by Demon City and carefully observed the surrounding movements.
Finally, he came to the edge of the demon city.
The walls of the demon city are tall and strong, covered with various defensive formations.
Fang Yue observed these formations carefully, looking for possible flaws.
After some observation, he found a relatively weak spot and cleverly broke through the defense of the city wall.
After entering the demon city, Fang became more cautious.
He walked through the shadows of the streets, dodging the monsters that came and went.
He began to ask around for news about the Patrolling Demon King and the secret treasure. (End of chapter)
