Chapter 314 Return to the Demon Realm
Xu Guan was immersed in this feeling for a long time, and then he gradually came back to his senses and couldn't help but shake his head.

"No wonder those masters are all dedicated to cultivation and are so indifferent to ordinary people."

When he really stepped into the master realm and experienced it personally, he couldn't help but feel similar emotions in his heart.

He is the master of the human race and has ascended to the highest place. He is already too far away from the world of ordinary people, and his indifference to ordinary life arises spontaneously.

It's not difficult to want him to lower his head to see all the living beings again, but it always feels boring.

Fortunately, his state of mind was stabilized and his mental power was condensed. He quickly found his original intention and did not remain immersed in this new extraordinary power.

"This breakthrough in seclusion also took a lot of time. I don't know what's going on with the outside world."

Xu Guan was thinking like this before pushing the door open and walking out.

The sun is shining brightly outside the house now, and the snow and frost in front of the retreat in the courtyard have long disappeared, leaving only a patch of flowers and plants that are growing extremely well.

Wu Guangxin listened to the movement in the courtyard, opened the door and walked in.

"Congratulations, sir, on your successful breakthrough in cultivation." Wu Guangxin held up his hands and congratulated him.

"Well, you've been staying outside these days, thank you for your hard work." Xu Gu'an smiled lightly and sat down at the stone table in the courtyard.

"When is it now?"

"It's already mid-June, sir." Wu Guangxin replied immediately.

"It's been so long." Xu Guan was a little surprised. He thought it would only be four or five months at most, but now it seems that the time he spent in seclusion to break through to the master realm was much longer than he expected.

For a long time he was so engrossed in it that he ignored the passage of time.

"Is everything okay over there in the town?" Xu Guan asked immediately.

Wu Guangxin nodded and said: "Everything is fine, General Manager Zhang has powerfully pacified all the forces in the Jiaochuan area during this period.

As for the rebellious Fengshen Sect, Mr. Hong has already taken action to put an end to it. "

Xu Guan heard that nothing happened in Xianlin Town during this period, so he stopped asking any more questions.

Wu Guangxin thought for a while and then continued: "A few days ago, the monster from the far north began to appear frequently outside Huangtian City, causing a large number of casualties.

A month ago, it seemed that a large number of powerful masters entered the glacier area to fight against the evil spirits, causing quite a stir.

The members of the intelligence network under my command are not strong enough to enter and investigate more, so I don't know what the current situation is. "

"You can just wait and see this matter from a distance. There is no need to delve too deeply into it." Xu Guan said after hearing the instructions.

As for the situation in the Far North Glacier area, he has been downloading copies from time to time these days, so he is also aware of the changes.

He estimated that more ice demons had resurrected deep in the glacier, which led to a new increase in the number of demons.

As for the large number of powerful masters who went to crusade, there was a high probability that it was the Demon Slayer Alliance.

In Xu Guan's knowledge, apart from the Demon Slayer Alliance, he really didn't know any other force that could assemble so many powerful masters.

As he was talking, he suddenly saw a black bird landing on the beam of the house on the side, and then it landed in front of him again after seeing Xu Guan.

"This black bird has been waiting outside your door every day for a month." Wu Guangxin naturally saw that this was just a trust bird.

Originally, he wanted to catch it, but the black bird was extremely agile and extremely fast.

Even he would have difficulty catching it by surprise.

In addition, it was not difficult to tell that this was a trust bird related to Xu Guan, so he did not dare to hurt it.

There was nothing I could do, so I just let this black bird stay here from a month ago until now.

Xu Guan understood clearly that this black bird was the messenger bird used by the Demon Slayer Alliance to contact him.

Needless to say, this was probably a letter sent by the Demon Slayer Alliance a month ago, and it took him a month to receive it.

It is not difficult to guess that this letter is probably related to the mission to eliminate monsters in the glacier area.

Xu Guan took off the letter and took a look. Sure enough, it was a summons order from the demon-slaying operation a month ago.

It's a pity that Xu Gu'an was at the critical moment of breaking through the seclusion at that time, so he didn't see anyone and missed the summoning order.

Now that a month has passed, I don’t know what the situation is anymore.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Guan put away the letter, stood up and said, "I'm going to go to the far north glacier, just look at the yard."

Signing to Wu Guangxin not to follow him, Xu Guan soared into the sky and disappeared into the sky in a streak of golden light.

Wu Guangxin was shocked.

"My lord, you have now entered the realm of a master!"

He has followed Xu Guan for such a long time, and naturally he knows that although Xu Guan was extremely powerful before, his cultivation level was still in the innate realm.

Now that he witnessed Xu Guan controlling his energy with his own eyes, he instantly understood that Xu Guan had entered the realm of a master in this retreat.

"No wonder this retreat lasted so long."

Glacier Demon Realm.

In just one stick of incense, Xu Guan arrived here.

"This air control plus flame propulsion, the superposition speed is unexpectedly fast."

Xu Guan was very satisfied with the speed of his journey. It had taken him at least half a day to get here from Huangtian City, but now it only took him half an hour to burn a stick of incense.

The speed difference is huge.

"Revisiting the old place is still the same."

Xu Guan's eyes flashed and he scanned the glacier boundary in front of him.

The demonic energy is still overwhelming and monsters are rampant.

It seems that nothing has changed since the Grandmaster team arrived here a month ago.

"It seems that the trouble we encountered this time is bigger than last time." Xu Guan thought to himself, and flew into it with a movement of his body.

Roar!
Suddenly, the glacier broke open, and the familiar snow spirit flying insects and other monsters emerged from it.

There were flying magic fish in the ice sea soaring into the sky, also coming towards him to express their welcome.

The only reason he was able to receive this kind of treatment was that he now possesses the Golden Divine Curse and is also a powerful master. This hatred aura was fully filled up even before he started fighting.

His attraction to these monsters is fatal.

Facing the group attack of monsters, Xu Guan remained calm and did not take a step back.

The fingers connected in the air, and the Taoist master's energy was like a chain, shooting out in all directions.

Accompanied by bursts of roaring sounds, the group of flying monsters were blown to pieces, without any chance of getting close.

"These energies?" Xu Guan's heart moved. His divine eyes seemed to have evolved after he entered the Grandmaster realm.

He could see the special energy released by those monsters after they died.

It seems like a broken remnant soul, constantly intertwined with the demonic energy, floating into the distance, not blending with the heaven and earth, and dissipating into the invisible.

Seeing this, Xu Guan's interest was aroused, and he raised his hand to send out a blast of Grandmaster's energy.

Grandmaster's energy is also a special form of energy, and can be exposed to the special energy wafting out of this monster.Xu Gu'an controlled his strength to envelope and wrap up this floating energy.

This kind of control of strength is not easy for ordinary masters.

The Grandmaster's energy is powerful and destructive. It is very difficult to change the nature of the energy through micro-control.

Logically speaking, it was impossible for Gu An, who had just entered the Grandmaster realm, to play with the Grandmaster's energy so easily.

But Xu Guan had already exceeded the limits of his cultivation method, and many impossible things became possible.

There is not much special energy floating out from the monster's corpse, and it can be easily intercepted with the strength of the master.

After the interception, this originally invisible special energy was compressed by his master's energy, and it was like a small black snake in the air, spinning in place, and it was difficult to break free.

Xu Guan's eyes were as bright as fire, and he observed quietly combined with his mental perception.

This special energy has a certain degree of consciousness, and it is initially determined that it is indeed caused by the remnant soul of the monster attached to it.

There are also some fluctuations in the soul power of evil spirits, as well as extremely pure high-level energy.

Overall, the composition of this little black snake is quite complex.

"Maybe we can try refining it." Xu Guan pondered this new discovery.

Now that he has entered the Grandmaster realm, there are more things he can try.

Just do whatever you want, the special energy in this monster is not much, so even if it fails, there is no possibility of harming him.

simply.

Xu Guan opened his mouth, and the energy of the little black snake was swallowed directly into his mouth.

The operation technique is like guiding the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to practice, refining the little black snake directly in the body.

The little black snake seemed to be struggling, but in front of Xu Guan, it was like an ant shaking an elephant, meaningless.

In an instant, the little black snake disintegrated, and Xu Guan directly absorbed the evil spirit part of it with his huge spiritual power.

He then used the Qi Entraining Method to refine and absorb part of the pure energy, which strengthened his newly-broken-through Grandmaster's energy and increased his cultivation level.

As for the broken soul of the monster, its soul power was too weak and mottled and turbid. It was not as pure as the evil spirit's soul power. If absorbing it would be harmful and useless, Xu Guan simply dispersed it outside his body and discarded it.

In just a moment, Xu Guan completed the refining.

In general, the income is limited, but if the amount of this monster's energy increases, and hundreds or thousands of them are refined and absorbed by him, it will be a considerable income.

In particular, he attaches great importance to the fact that it can quickly improve his cultivation progress at the Grandmaster level and strengthen his Grandmaster strength.

This special energy is probably developed after the living beings are transformed into monsters. After the monsters die, they will be recalled by the evil spirits and return to their origins.

Xu Guan's spiritual power is strong, and he has a pair of divine eyes that can see everything. Only then can he capture this special energy mixed in the demonic energy in the sky.

It would be difficult for ordinary masters to catch him so easily.

At least he had never seen the old man from Dongji and other team masters operate like this before.

I don't know if the old man from Dongji doesn't care about this special energy, or if he doesn't notice it.
Xu Guan was thinking like this, and saw the broken corpses of monsters below, attracting more monsters.

He was not polite, and once again used several bursts of Grandmaster's energy to kill those monsters.

There is also monster energy floating out from these corpses, flying into the sky and blending into the dark demonic energy that blocks the sky and the sun.

Xu Guan intercepted it midway, integrated the energy of several monsters together, and once again swallowed it and refined it.

The growth of spiritual power is insignificant, but the growth of a master's cultivation level is more obvious.

"Not bad, not bad." Xu Guan was quite satisfied. This growth in cultivation was almost in vain.

Therefore, he repeated this operation several times with great interest, and the process of absorbing and refining the energy of these monsters became more and more skillful.

When no more monsters appeared nearby, Xu Guan burned the remaining monster corpses and flew away.

Although being able to absorb monster energy was a bit novel for him, he did not forget the purpose of this trip.

At that moment, he decided to go to Wanxi Mansion again to see the situation first.

Of course, if he encounters monsters along the way, he won't miss them. He can kill them casually and refine the monster energy along the way without wasting too much time.

It only took half a day before he arrived at Wanxi Mansion.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the Wanxi Mansion on the summit was still there and there was no sign of damage.

At least the situation isn't too bad now.

Soon, someone in Wanxi Mansion noticed his arrival and jumped into the sky.

"Xu Xiaoyou?"

The visitor was an old master from Wanxi Mansion, and he actually recognized Xu Guan.

Xu Guan had followed the old man from Dongji to and from the Wanxi Mansion many times before. Because he stood out among the masters at such a young age, the masters in the Wanxi Mansion basically had an impression of Xu Guan.

"I have been in seclusion before and missed the letters sent by the alliance. Now I am here in a hurry. I don't know what the situation is?" Xu Gu'an got straight to the point and asked directly.

The old grandmaster understood, shook his head and said solemnly: "The situation is not very good, the Demon Lord was born, and Senior Dongji and the master of my house joined forces, but they have not yet been able to defeat the Demon Lord.

In the team that fights against evil spirits, a master has already died! "

As soon as he said this, Xu Guan sighed inwardly, it was indeed the demon king who was causing trouble this time.

At the end of the previous mission, they had glimpsed the illusion of the Demon Lord from a distance, and knew that a Demon Lord existed here and had already been born.

This is probably the reason why the monsters in the far north are difficult to suppress.

When the Demon Lord appears, it means that a demonic disaster is really coming and it is difficult to stop it!
Unless you kill the demon king directly.

Although Xu Guan still doesn't know how strong the demon lord is, the fact that the old man from Dongji and the master of Wanxi Mansion have been unable to solve it since they joined forces is enough to illustrate the problem.

Xu Guan then asked the old master where the demon-killing team was now.

The old grandmaster didn't know where the team was going, but several team members in Wanxi Mansion who had been injured before met with Xu Guan and pointed out their direction.

"Kids, remember to be careful. The evil spirits are particularly rampant this time and are much more dangerous than last time."

The Grandmaster of the team who was left to recuperate saw that Xu Guan was going alone and couldn't help but remind him.

"Thank you for informing me." Xu Guan nodded and flew away again.

Deep in the glacier, the ice and snow here are even more condensed, and the chill is even more exaggerated than in the outer circle.

If you come here with insufficient vitality and blood, you are afraid that you will be frozen into popsicles in a matter of seconds.

The demonic energy here is also even more astonishingly strong, like thousands of miles of black clouds, stretching as far as the eye can see, accumulating deeply in the sky, making it difficult for people to breathe.

Any creature that comes here, even a strong master, is at risk of being demonized!
Even Xu Guan, as he went deeper into the depths of the glacier, he became more aware of the rich demonic energy floating in the air, trying to erode his body and spirit and demonize him every moment.

"It's such a scary place," Xu Guan said to himself.

They had never reached this place before being persuaded to retreat by the demon king who appeared.
