Changsheng: My qualifications improve a little every day

The Demon City Lord frowned, and after a moment he slowly spoke: "Pass on 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 all the major demon kings in the city to discuss countermeasures."

The monsters took the order and left. The atmosphere in the monster city instantly became tense and solemn.

All the demon kings came rushing over, their faces were serious, and they all understood the seriousness of the incident.

"My lord, that human is very powerful and we cannot underestimate him." said a demon king.

"That's right, the Black Wind Demon King was defeated by him. According to current information, he has devoured the essence of five demon kings. We must act with caution." Another demon king echoed.

The Lord nodded slightly and looked deeply at the demon kings present.

"This man is indeed a difficult person, but we in the Demon City cannot just sit there 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: "My Lord, why don't we set a trap and lure that human into it."

After these words were spoken, the demon kings looked at each other, and then began to discuss in a low voice.

Some demon kings thought this method was too risky and might bring greater disaster to the demon city;

Some demon kings believe that this is the only feasible solution at present and is 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 do we set up a trap?" asked the Lord.

The tall demon king immediately responded, "My Lord, we can spread the news that there is an extremely valuable treasure somewhere. This treasure has a huge attraction to that human. When he shows up, we can 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 believe that this treasure is closely related to his cultivation or purpose. In addition, we can set up a powerful formation around the trap to ensure that it will be difficult for him 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 realize our intentions."

As a result, 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 that 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 possible dangers around him.

The fox girl snuggled up to him, a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.

Old Turtle frowned, constantly thinking about how to deal with the situation.

"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 need to find a safe place as soon as possible, otherwise we may encounter danger at any time."

Turtle pondered for a moment and said, "We need to pay attention to the surrounding environment and see if there is any place we can use. Maybe we can find a secluded place to hide for a while."

They continued to trudge 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 where the sound came from with vigilance.

The fox girl and the old turtle 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 gripped the weapon tightly in his hand, leaned forward slightly, and was ready to meet any possible attack at any time.

The fox girl's heartbeat quickened involuntarily. She stared nervously in the direction where the sound came from, holding the corner of Fang Yue's clothes tightly with both hands.

Old Turtle quickly mobilized the magic power in his body, ready to cast spells to protect everyone at the critical moment.

As the sound got closer, the fog in the swamp seemed to be stirred up, becoming even more strange and unpredictable.

Fang Yue's eyes became sharper, and he tried hard to see through the fog to see the impending danger.

Finally, a huge black shadow appeared 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."

The fox girl and the old turtle nodded silently, staring at the black shadow intently.

As the shadow got closer, they finally saw its true face - a giant swamp monster.

"Wait a minute, this is a monster!" At this time, Old Turtle suddenly spoke.

Without waiting for Fang Yue and the fox girl to question it, it continued, "Old friend, it's been so many years!"

Fang Yue and the fox girl were greatly surprised by Old Turtle’s words. They stared at Old Turtle and the giant swamp monster with wide eyes.

The swamp monster seemed to have responded to Old Turtle's words. It lowered its head slightly, with a hint of confusion and recollection in its eyes.

"Old Turtle, do you know this monster?" Fang Yue asked softly.

In the demon world, there are also some powerful demon tribes that cannot transform due to their bloodline.

Old Turtle nodded slightly, and said with a hint of emotion: "Many years ago, I once met it in this swamp.

It helped me before, but I didn't expect to meet it again today. Although it can't transform, it is extremely powerful. We are safe here for the time being."

Fang Yue, Fox Girl and Turtle Old Man continued to explore the boundless swamp under the protection of the swamp monster. They carefully followed the footsteps of the swamp monster, hoping to find a safer hiding place.

Finally, under the guidance of the swamp monster, they came to a hidden place, which was surrounded by dense vegetation and the surrounding fog was thinner than other places, as if there was a mysterious power guarding this place.

Fang Yue observed this place carefully, and a glimmer of hope rose in his heart. "This place looks safe. Maybe we can hide here temporarily from the pursuit of the demon city."

The fox girl also nodded, with a hint of joy in her eyes. "I hope this can be our safe haven."

Turtle said cautiously: "We can't be careless. Although it looks safe here, we still have to take precautions."

~~~~~~~
The next day.

In this secluded secret place, Fang Yue decided to seize the time to refine the essence of the Black Wind Demon King in order to integrate the unique skills of the Five Spirits into one.

He found a relatively quiet corner, sat down 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 contained powerful strength, but were also full of wildness and violence. Fang Yue carefully controlled them and integrated them into his own skills bit by bit.

As time passed, 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 his own benefit.

But he had a firm belief in his heart. He knew that only by successfully integrating the five spirits into one would they have a greater chance of resisting the pursuit of the Demon City.

While Fang Yue was working hard to refine the essence, the world outside the secret land was not peaceful.

At the same time, Old Turtle was also concentrating on deciphering the ciphertext on the bell.

He sat in a corner of the secret place, holding a bell in his hand, his eyes full of thought and concentration.

Old Turtle's fingers gently stroked the patterns on the bell, feeling the mysterious power contained therein.

Those ancient symbols and patterns seemed to be telling a long-lost story, and Old Turtle was trying hard to find clues from them.

Various possible interpretations kept emerging in his mind, and he tried to connect these symbols with the history and legends of the demon world that he knew.

Time passed minute by minute, and Old Turtle's brows were sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed.

In the process of cracking the ciphertext, Mr. Turtle also felt a vague sense of pressure.

He knows that this bell may be hiding a vital secret, and whether they can unlock this secret will have a significant impact on their survival and future in the demon world.

Suddenly, Turtle Old'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, Old Turtle seemed to gradually understand something.

A hint of excitement appeared on his face, but at the same time he became more cautious because he knew that a preliminary understanding alone was far from enough.

Old Turtle stood up excitedly and was about to find Fang Yue and the fox girl to share his discovery.

At this time, Fang Yue had just completed the refining of the Black Wind Demon King's essence and slowly opened his eyes.

Fox Girl: "Your injury is healed! How do you feel now?"

The fox girl and the old turtle only thought that Fang Yue was injured when he was luring the Black Wind Demon King away. They had no idea that he was injured when he was killing 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 fine now, and I feel that my strength has recovered a lot."

The fox girl's eyes showed joy, "That's good, I was so worried just now."

Old Turtle also came forward, looking relieved, "It's good that everything is alright. 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."

Old Turtle said solemnly, "I found that the secret code on this bell seems to be related to an ancient legend. The legend says 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. "Doesn't that mean we have new hope? If we can find that mysterious place, maybe we won't have to worry about being hunted by the demon city anymore."

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 does exist, it is not easy to find it."

Old 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 from 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. At the same time, we must speed up the search for clues to the mysterious place."

Turtle also said: "Fang Yue is right. We can't just sit there and wait for death. We must face the next challenge together."

At this time, some news about the demon city was also passed on.

The Wind Patrolling Demon King of the Demon City has another secret treasure that leads to the treasure land!

Fang Yue, the fox girl and Old Turtle were all shocked when they heard the news.

Fang Yue frowned and said in a deep voice: "At this time, there is news that another secret treasure has appeared among the demon race. I don't know if it is true or not. Maybe it is a trap!"

After all, it was just such a coincidence.

Just when they had some clues, new news came out.

It really made him doubt.

The fox girl looked worried: "What should we do then? If we don't go, what if we miss the real treasure land? But if we go, we're afraid we'll fall into the trap of the demon city."

After thinking for a moment, Turtle said, "We can't act blindly. Let's observe the situation first to see if the news is true before making a decision.

At the same time, we cannot relax 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 remain vigilant and not be fooled by the schemes of the demon city."

In order to verify the truth of the news, Fang Yue decided to sneak into the demon city. The fox girl and the old turtle were 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 like this."

Fang Yue looked determined and said, "We can't remain passive now. We must take the initiative to find the truth. The news about this secret treasure is too strange. If we don't find 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."

Turtle frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Fang Yue's words make sense, but you must be extremely careful. The fox girl and I will wait for your news in a secret place. If anything unexpected happens, we will also find a way to help you."

Fang Yue nodded and began to carefully prepare a plan to sneak into the demon city.

He used his concealment skills to restrain his aura to the extreme, and then moved carefully towards the direction of the demon city.

On the way to the Demon City, Fang Yue avoided the patrol team sent by the Demon City and carefully observed the movements around him.

Finally, he arrived at the edge of the demon city.

The walls of the demon city are tall and solid, covered with various defensive arrays.

Fang Yue carefully observed these magic arrays, looking for possible flaws.

After some observation, he found a relatively weak point and cleverly broke through the defense of the city wall.

After entering the demon city, Fang Yue became more cautious.

He shuttled through the shadows of the streets, dodging the passing monsters.

He began to ask around for information about the Wind Patrol Demon King and the secret treasure. (End of this chapter)
