Chapter 119: The Demon Cultivator Appears
"I can finally go back."
Someone said calmly that after all, hunting demon cultivators outside made people nervous every day, for fear of encountering some powerful demon.
"In three or four days, I should be able to harvest another one or two hundred spirit stones." Lu Luan said to himself.
He wanted to take advantage of the protection of his senior brother to get more benefits outside. Otherwise, once the opportunity passed, there would be no such opportunity. After all, he was not strong enough. If he was asked to go out alone to kill demons, he would not dare.
After these battles, the dozen or so disciples are now able to deal with the demonic cultivators without any difficulty, but they are not panic-stricken either.
"Let's keep watching."
Chen Qiyuan said, and then led everyone to search around the mountains.
Looking at the mountains below, Lu Luan thought silently in his heart: "In addition to treasures, I have gained a lot in the past few days. With the help of the blood essence of the strange beasts, even my realm has been consolidated."
"But as the offensive of the Demon Sect intensifies, the battles ahead will only become more and more difficult. I have to hurry up and become stronger."
Lu Luan clenched his fists. He knew that a more dangerous battle was still to come. After all, this was just a test by the Demon Sect. Otherwise, when the chaos started, those with weak strength would be slaughtered and would not even be able to escape.
"Brother Lu, what are you thinking about?"
Wang Lang approached him and asked softly.
Lu Luan shook his head slightly and said, "Nothing, I was just wondering how long this demon sect's attack will last."
The joking look on Wang Lang's face began to disappear, and he said solemnly: "With the golden light array and the foundation accumulated by my Zhengyang Sect over hundreds of years, if nothing major changes, I don't think the Demon Sect will be able to defeat us in thirty to fifty years."
Lu Luan nodded in agreement. After all, if he wanted to conquer the sect, he would have to break the golden light formation first, even if other immortal sects didn't care.
But the golden light array was like an extremely hard bone. If the vicious dog of the Blood Spirit Sect wanted to bite it down quickly, it would suffer heavy losses in its teeth and physical weakness.
After a moment of silence, he continued, "Since the Blood Spirit Sect has decided to come, it means that they are ready to face the major sects alone, otherwise they would not dare to attack rashly."
"Indeed, the Blood Spirit Sect must have been sure of doing this before. But how long has it been since they were destroyed? In such a short time, it is impossible for them to recover to the point where they are not afraid of the several major immortal sects. After all, the Blood Spirit Sect at its peak does not have this strength." Wang Lang said.
Anyone who is not stupid can understand these principles.
"Hey, these are all things that the headmaster and the elders are thinking about. Why are we worrying about them?"
Deng Yi said from behind.
"Haha, that's right," Wang Lang chuckled, and then asked, "Brother Deng, both the Taixu Sect and the Haoqi Sword Sect are here, what's going on in Changge Valley?"
Deng Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know. Besides, last time our Taixu Sect held a four-sect competition, they from Changge Valley didn't come. I heard from my senior brother that Changge Valley has now activated the sect protection formation and plans to close off from the public."
"The Changge Valley has the largest spiritual vein, and the formation is able to operate continuously for hundreds of years by taking advantage of the power of the mountains. It seems that they are planning to wait until we and the Demon Sect are both defeated before coming out to clean up the mess. What a good plan."
Wang Lang sneered.
After Lu Luan pondered for a while, he said, "Do you think this is something that the top leaders of our four sects have discussed? Changge Valley has the advantage of formations. If this is the case, the Blood Spirit Sect will definitely allocate some of its strength to defend against it and will not dare to attack with all its strength."
After all, if the fight really reaches the end, the intact Changge Valley will definitely be a huge force.
"It's not impossible."
Several people were flying while talking.
……
……
Two days later.
"There's something unusual ahead."
When everyone passed a high mountain, they saw clouds of smoke rising in front of them, which was very conspicuous.
"Is there a demon causing trouble?"
Lu Luan immediately became alert.
"Walk."
Everyone flew quickly towards the direction of the smoke.
Soon, they all arrived.
This was also a small village with about a hundred households, but now there were collapsed houses and burnt ruins everywhere. But the most shocking thing was that the ground was covered with bloody limbs and arms!
"This……"
Seeing this scene, everyone was so shocked that they were speechless. Although they were just ordinary people, it was still shocking.
"This doesn't seem to be the method used by demon cultivators."
Yin Ming looked down and said with a frown.
Chen Qiyuan glanced at the magic disk in his hand and nodded: "Indeed, there is no demonic energy around, and eating human flesh and blood is more like the work of a monster."
"It's so miserable."
As usual, everyone started to check the village in teams. Seeing the mutilated bodies everywhere, Wang Lang couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
They had seen each other so often these days that they didn't feel too uncomfortable.
Lu Luan squatted beside a corpse and examined it for a while, then stood up and said, "These are the marks of a monster biting you. It should be that a monster from the deep mountains got scared and ran out here."
After all, there are generally no monsters in places where mortals live, so the most likely possibility is that the battle between immortals and demons disturbed the monsters.
"Hey."
Wang Lang sighed.
After taking a look around, Lu Luan shook his head in confusion and said, "Strange, if it was a monster, it would have left some traces, but why is there no trace on the ground?"
"Yeah, it stands to reason that monsters would leave some scratches."
Liu Ling also said in confusion.
"It seems that it is not that simple." Lu Luan thought to himself and became alert.
"Snapped."
Suddenly, they heard a noise coming from inside a room.
"Hmm? There's movement!"
The four men immediately picked up their weapons and slowly surrounded them.
"Help…"
"There are still people alive!"
After hearing a faint call from inside, several people walked in cautiously.
In the corner of the firewood pile, a man covered in blood was lying on the ground powerlessly, breathing weakly, and was seriously injured.
"Save me... save me..."
Seeing someone coming in, the man immediately crawled towards them, begging.
"Uncle, what happened here? What's the matter?"
After discovering that it was a mortal, Lu Luan and Wang Lang walked over and asked.
The man didn't say anything, but just pointed behind them with a trembling hand.
The two looked back in confusion.
"puff!"
But...the next moment, Lu Luan felt a warm liquid spraying on his body.
Then he saw a large amount of blood in front of him!
"what!"
Liu Ling was so frightened that she screamed and her face turned pale.
She saw that the arm of the mortal who was lying on the ground just now suddenly turned into a sharp claw and pierced through Wang Lang's chest in an instant.
And then the whole person's head turned into a huge wolf head!
This scene is so terrifying!
"asshole!"
Deng Yi was the first to react. He glared and roared. Seeing that the other furry claw was grabbing towards Lu Luan, he immediately slashed with a sword!
"boom!"
The monster was chopped away instantly.
As for Wang Lang, there was a hole the size of a bowl on his chest. He was no longer able to breathe, and there was a look of disbelief in his eyes until his death.
Lu Luan's eyes were filled with horror. He had not expected that Wang Lang would just... just die like that. And if the monster had aimed at him just now, he would have definitely died.
Because it only takes a split second, and at such a close distance, no one can react. In this situation, even if there is a protective talisman, it is useless.
Life and death are just a matter of a moment. Sometimes it really depends on luck. Lu Luan now feels cold sweat all over his body.
The only people next to that man just now were him and Wang Lang.
No one expected that the monster could hide so well, and they didn't even notice anything wrong!
After realizing what was happening, everyone immediately ran outside.
Soon, a black shadow was seen running out from the dust. It turned out to be a giant wolf covered with black hair!
"die!"
Yin Ming, who was not far away, saw it. Before the wolf could escape, a sword light fell from the sky and cut off its wolf head with one sword. The wolf fell to the ground and died instantly.
But the strange thing is that after the wolf demon died, it turned into a human form!
"what happened?"
Yin Ming flew over and asked. When he saw Lu Luan covered in blood, he knew that something was wrong.
Liu Ling replied in a trembling voice: "Wang...Brother Wang was killed by that monster."
After all, she had never experienced any strong winds or waves, and she was already frightened out of her wits. However, the scene just now was unbearable for anyone who saw a person who was alive and kicking in the last moment and was separated from life and death in the next moment.
"Damn it!"
Yin Ming's breathing became a little rapid, and murderous intent was emanating from his eyes. He did not expect that he would lose a disciple here!
For a moment, everyone felt a little heavy-hearted. After all, they had been together for many days.
"This is a demon cultivator!"
Chen Qiyuan landed beside the man and said solemnly.
"What? It's actually a demon cultivator!"
Everyone's expression suddenly changed.
People can cultivate immortality and magic, so naturally they can also cultivate demons. As long as they use the secret method, replace their own blood with demon blood, and abandon their human fetus, they can embark on the path of demon cultivation.
"Damn it!"
When Yin Ming saw Wang Lang's body, his face looked extremely ugly.
Lu Luan was also in a low mood. Although he had only been with Wang Lang for a few days, he still had some friendship with this optimistic and talkative fellow disciple. Now that Wang Lang was dead, he felt a little bad.
"Why are there demon cultivators in this place?"
A young man asked in confusion. After all, demon cultivators are the same as devil cultivators, and everyone wants to kill them.
"A demon cultivator has appeared at this time, and judging from his attire, he seems to be a disciple of the Demon Sect. Could it be that the Demon Sect has connected with the Demon Sect to fight against our four sects together?"
Chen Qiyuan realized something and said solemnly.
Yin Ming collected Wang Lang's body and said, "This is a serious matter. Report it to the sect when you return. If the demon sect is also involved, then..."
"Snapped."
"Snapped."
But before he could finish his words, there were unusual sounds.
At this time, seeing that everyone had gathered, several voices were heard, and seven figures emitting evil spirits flew out from the ruins, and were now fleeing quickly into the distance.
It seems that these demon cultivators were just slaughtering here, and they never expected that the immortal cultivators would suddenly come. Seeing that it was too late to retreat, they had no choice but to hide among them.
Now that I've been discovered, I naturally have to seize the opportunity to escape.
Since the demon blood that most demon cultivators have integrated into their bodies is not under their control, in order to prevent their minds from being devoured by the savage animal nature and completely transformed into demon beasts, they drink human blood and flesh to maintain their humanity.
"Chase!"
Yin Ming roared, and then was the first to chase out.
The strength of these demon cultivators is not very strong, otherwise they would not be hiding.
Lu Luan spotted a figure, used the Flowing Shadow Technique, and quickly chased after it.
He wanted to see what was different about demon cultivators.
He has not yet seen the methods of the demon cultivators.
"Stop it!"
After chasing for a while, Lu Luan slashed out several sword energies, blocking its way. The demon cultivator felt threatened and dodged quickly, but it only paused for a moment before being caught up by Lu Luan.
It wanted to escape in another direction, but it was too late. Lu Luan's flying sword had already dragged it down.
Of course, Lu Luan was also wanting to see what was so unique about the demon cultivator, otherwise the Five Elements Sword Controlling Technique would have killed it long ago.
Then he tangled with it, trying to force out some of its unique tricks.
After a while.
"I'll fight you!"
Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the young demon cultivator roared, and then turned into a giant crocodile! He pounced on him, apparently wanting to make a final struggle.
To be able to transform into a crocodile, it naturally has absorbed the crocodile's essence and blood.
"Haha, transformed into a demon?"
Lu Luan sneered and stopped testing him. Murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and then he slashed out with his sword.
"puff!"
Blood spurted out, leaving a deep bloody mark on the giant crocodile's body. It was severely injured and fell to the ground like a huge rock, screaming.
This demon cultivator's strength is not as strong as the one who killed Wang Lang, but how can an ordinary cultivator of the seventh level of Qi Refining withstand his attack?
However, after transforming into a demon, its defense was indeed greatly improved. Even after falling from such a high place, it was not smashed into a bloody mess.
Watching the dying giant crocodile in the pit gradually transforming back into a human form, Lu Luan frowned and murmured, "It's still very different. It's already equivalent to a demon beast. If a cultivator of this level of cultivation is hit by my sword from such a high place, he will definitely die."
"You can't kill me. I'm from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect."
The demon cultivator spoke weakly, blood still flowing from his mouth.
"The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect."
Lu Luan frowned. He had never heard of such a sect. It must be a force from somewhere else.
"Yes, if you kill me, the sect will not..."
"puff!"
But Lu Luan didn't care about all that. He thought that the demon cultivator still dared to threaten him in this situation, so he raised his hand and swung his sword, and the demon cultivator didn't move at all.
"It's a pity that it's not a monster after all, but it has monster blood in its body. If you bring it back to the sect, you will be rewarded."
He waved his hand and collected the corpse of the demon cultivator. Then he thought of something and frowned, "Master said that a drop of demon beast blood has merged into my body. Will I become a demon cultivator?"
Of course, this was just a momentary thought.
He was still clear about it. After all, the monster blood essence he had integrated was definitely fundamentally different from that of the monster cultivator. It was refined and had no savage animal nature. It only had a nourishing effect on cultivation and the body.
(I'm too busy, so I'll update once today and make up for it tomorrow. Sorry.)
