The Lord of the Demon City frowned, and after a moment he slowly said: "Pass me an order to strengthen the alert of the Demon City, and send out elite spies to find traces of that human being. At the same time, summon all the demon kings in the city to discuss countermeasures. "
The demons followed 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 being is powerful and we cannot underestimate it." A demon king said.
"Yes, the Black Wind Demon King was defeated by him. According to the current news, he has devoured the essence of five demon kings. We must proceed with caution." Another demon king agreed. road.
The Lord nodded slightly and glanced deeply at the demon kings present.
"This person is indeed a troublesome person, but we in Demon City cannot sit still and wait for death. Now he is in the dark, and we are in the light. We must find a way to lure him out."
A tall man The demon king took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Lord, why don't we set a trap and lure that human into the bait."
As soon as these words were said, all the demon kings looked at each other, and then began to discuss in low voices.
Some demon kings feel that this method is too risky and may bring greater disaster to the demon city;
Some demon kings believe that this is the only feasible method at present and is worth a try.
The Lord raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. He narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about the feasibility of this proposal.
"Set a trap, how to operate it specifically?" the Lord asked.
The tall demon king immediately responded: "Lord, we can release the news that there is an extremely precious treasure somewhere, and this treasure has a huge attraction for that human being. etc. When he appeared, we surrounded him again."
"But what if he is not fooled?" Another demon king asked.
The tall demon king said confidently: "We can arrange some illusions to make him mistakenly think that this treasure is closely related to his practice or purpose. Moreover, we can arrange a powerful formation around the trap to ensure that once he enters, it will be difficult to escape."
The Lord pondered for a moment and finally nodded.
"Okay, let's do it this way. But we must be careful not to let him notice our intentions."
So, Demon City began to lay out traps in full swing.
They spread the news about the treasure everywhere, while carefully preparing formations and ambushes.
In that boundless swamp, Fang Yue, Fox Girl and Turtle Lao were moving forward cautiously.
A strange fog filled the swamp, making it difficult to see the road ahead.
Fang Yue looked solemn, always alert to possible dangers around him.
The fox girl cuddled tightly beside him, with a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.
Gui Lao frowned and kept thinking about countermeasures.
"This vast swamp is full of unknown dangers. We must be extra careful." Fang Yue said in a low voice.
The fox girl nodded lightly, "Fang Yue, we have to find a safe place as soon as possible, otherwise we may encounter danger at any time."
Gui Lao pondered for a moment and said: "We have to pay attention Check the surrounding environment to see if there is any place that can be used. Maybe you can find a hidden place to stay away from the limelight."
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 Daze.
Fang Yue immediately stopped and looked warily towards the direction of the sound.
Fox Girl and Turtle Lao also became nervous and prepared to deal with danger.
The sound was getting closer and closer, as if something huge was approaching.
Fang Yue held the weapon in his hand tightly, leaning forward slightly, ready to face possible attacks at any time.
The fox girl's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. She stared nervously at the direction of the sound, holding tightly to the corners of Fang Yue's clothes with both hands.
Turtle Lao quickly mobilized the magic power in his body and prepared to cast spells to protect everyone at the critical moment.
As the sound approached, the fog in the swamp seemed to be stirred up, becoming even more weird and unpredictable.
Fang Yue's eyes became sharper, and he tried hard to see the upcoming danger through the fog.
Finally, a huge black shadow loomed in the mist. It was huge and exuded a strong sense of oppression.
Fang Yue took a deep breath and whispered: "Everyone, be careful and prepare to fight."
Fox Girl and Turtle Lao nodded silently, staring at the black figure with all their attention.
As the black shadow gradually approached, they finally saw its true identity - a huge swamp monster.
"Wait a minute, it's my own demon!" At this time, Turtle Lao suddenly said.
Without waiting for Fang Yue and Fox Girl to question, it continued to speak: "Old friend, we haven't seen each other for so many years!"
Fang Yue and Fox Girl were surprised by Gui Lao's words. They stared at Turtle Lao and the giant swamp monster with wide eyes.
Swamp Monster seemed to have reacted to Turtle Lao's words. It lowered its head slightly, with a trace of doubt and memory in its eyes.
"Old Turtle, do you know this monster?" Fang Yue asked softly.
In the demon world, there are also some powerful demon clans who cannot transform due to their bloodline.
Gui Lao nodded slightly, and said with a hint of emotion in his expression: "Years ago, I had a chance encounter with it in this vast swamp.
At that time, it also had After helping me, I didn’t expect to meet again today. Although it cannot transform, it is extremely powerful here. "
Fang Yue, Fox Girl and Turtle Lao continued to explore the boundless swamp under the protection of the swamp monster. They carefully followed the Swamp Monster's footsteps, hoping to find a safer hiding place.
Finally, led by Swamp Monster, they came to a hidden secret place. It 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 observed this place carefully, with a glimmer of hope in his heart. "It looks very safe here. Maybe we can temporarily avoid the pursuit of the demon city here."
The fox girl also nodded, with a hint of joy in her eyes. "I hope this can become our safe haven."
Gui Lao said cautiously: "We can't take it lightly. Although it seems 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 in order to integrate the five spirits into one stunt.
He found a relatively quiet corner, sat cross-legged, slowly closed his eyes, and began to adjust his breathing.
Fang Yue's mind was immersed in his body, guiding the essence of the Black Wind Demon King to flow slowly through his meridians.
These essences contain great power, but are also full of wildness and fury. Fang Yue controlled them carefully and incorporated them into his own skills bit by bit.
As time passed, 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 to tame it and use it for his own use.
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 against the demon city's pursuit.
While Fang Yue worked hard to refine the essence, the world outside the secret land was not peaceful.
At the same time, Mr. Gui was also concentrating on deciphering the cipher text on the bell.
He was sitting in a corner of the secret place, holding a bell in his hand, his eyes full of thinking and concentration.
Guilao's fingers gently stroked the lines on the bell, feeling the mysterious power contained in it.
Those ancient symbols and patterns seem to be telling an ancient story, and Mr. Gui is trying hard to find clues from them.
Various possible interpretation methods kept popping up in his mind, trying to connect these symbols with the history and legends of the demon world that he knew.
As time passed by, Gui Lao's brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed.
In the process of cracking the cipher text, Gui Lao also felt a vague pressure.
He knows that this bell may hide a vital secret, and whether they can unlock this secret will have a major impact on their survival and future in the demon world.
Suddenly, Gui Lao's finger stopped on a special symbol, and his eyes lit up.
As if he had found a key clue, he began to study the symbol and the surrounding patterns more deeply.
After some careful thinking and reasoning, Mr. Gui seemed to gradually understand something.
His face showed a look of excitement, but at the same time he was more cautious, because he knew that just a preliminary understanding was not enough.
Gui Lao stood up excitedly and was about to go to Fang Yue and Fox Girl to share this discovery.
At this time, Fang Yue happened to have completed 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 Lao only thought that Fang Yue was injured when he led the Black Wind Demon King away. How could they know that he was killing Black Wind? He was only injured when he was the Demon King.
Fang Yue was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Fox Girl and Turtle Lao didn’t know that he killed the Black Wind Demon King and refined his essence. He said calmly: "It’s nothing serious. , I feel my strength has recovered a lot.”
The fox girl's eyes showed joy, "That's good, you were worried about me just now."
Gui Lao also stepped forward with a look of relief, "It's okay. Fang Yue, I'm cracking the bell. A major discovery was made on the cipher text.”
Fang Yue immediately became interested, "Mr. Gui, what have you discovered? Tell me quickly."
Mr. Gui said solemnly: "I found that the cipher text on this bell seems to be related to an ancient legend. According to legend, there is a mysterious place hiding a mysterious With the power to 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? That mysterious place, maybe we won’t No need to be afraid of being chased by Demon City anymore."
Fang Yue frowned slightly and said after thinking for a moment: "But this is just a legend. We are not sure whether this mysterious place really exists. Moreover, even if it exists. , it is not easy to find it."
Gui Lao nodded, "Yes, Fang Yue is right, but this at least provides us with a direction to avoid the demon city. Hunt while searching for clues to this mysterious place."
The fox girl said with some worry: "What if the people from Demon City find us first?"
Fang Yue's eyes were firm, "We must be more careful and use the concealment of this secret place to delay being caught as much as possible. Time for discovery, at the same time, speed up to God. Searching for clues in the secret place. "
Gui Lao also said: "Fang Yue is right, we can't just sit back and wait for death."
At this time, some people. News about Demon City was also passed on.
The Demon King Patrolling 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’s such a coincidence.
They had just made an appearance, 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."
Gui Lao After thinking for a moment, he 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 our search for clues in the mysterious place, after all, that is where our real hope lies."
Fox Girl nodded: "Old Turtle is right, we must stay vigilant. Don’t 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's too dangerous for you to sneak in rashly."
Fang Yue looked firm and said: "Now we can't remain passive all the time. , 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 not to expose myself."
Gui Lao frowned and said after thinking for a moment: "Fang Yue makes sense, but you must be extremely careful when Fox Girl and I are in the secret place. We are waiting for your news. If something happens, we will find a way to respond to 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 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 place and cleverly broke through the defense of the city wall.
After entering the demon city, Fang became more cautious.
He shuttled through the shadows of the streets, avoiding the monsters that came and went.
He began to ask around for news about the Patrolling Demon King and the secret treasure. (End of this chapter)
