Changsheng: My qualifications improve a little every day

He took out a piece of animal skin from his arms, on which he had copied the pattern of a gem, and compared it with the pattern on the base of the crystal ball.

really,

There are some subtle connections between the two. The direction and shape of some lines are almost the same, but the pattern on the base of the crystal ball is more complicated, as if some new elements have been added to the basis of the gemstone patterns.

Fang Yue speculated that these new elements might be higher-level hints or restrictions.

He gently stroked the pattern on the base, trying to feel whether there were any special energy fluctuations or mechanisms.

When his fingers touched the intersection of a pattern, he felt a faint fluctuation of vital energy.

He concentrated his mind and slowly injected his energy into that intersection.

With the infusion of vital energy, the light of the crystal ball flickered more violently, and the images emerging inside the ball began to change rapidly. The black mist in the images seemed to have substance and pounced towards the human and demon races.

People began to show expressions of fear and anger. The originally harmonious scene was instantly broken and conflicts began to arise between the two tribes.

As the conflict between the two tribes intensified in the picture inside the crystal ball, the crystal ball suddenly trembled violently, and the frequency of the flashing light became faster and faster, almost hurting people's eyes.

Fang Yue had an ominous premonition in his heart and was about to step back, but he saw the crystal ball explode in a burst of extremely dazzling light.

Countless crystal fragments flew in all directions like sharp arrows. Fang Yue hurriedly used his energy to form a protective shield in front of him.

The fragments hit the shield, making crisp and dense sounds, and every impact made him feel a huge impact force.

Fortunately, the shield managed to hold on and the fragments did not hurt him.

Just as the fragments of the crystal ball were scattered all over the ground, a dull roar came from the secret hall.

Fang Yue turned his head and saw a huge door slowly opening on one side of the hall.

The portal was engraved with complex runes and patterns. Those runes glowed with mysterious light, as if telling an ancient story.

There was a deep and mysterious atmosphere in the portal, and there was a faint whistling sound coming from it, like a call from another world.

Fang Yue looked at the portal, frowning slightly, his heart full of doubts. He muttered to himself: "What is behind this portal? Is it hope or another disaster?"

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded behind him: "Fang Yue, do you really want to go in? This may be a trap."

Fang Yue looked back and saw that it was Old Turtle.

When Fang Yue saw Old Turtle, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Old Turtle, why are you here?"

Old Turtle walked forward slowly, his wrinkled face full of solemnity:
"I sensed a strong fluctuation of vitality here, and I was worried that you were in danger, so I rushed over. This portal exudes a sense of weirdness, so don't enter rashly."

Fang Yue frowned, "Old Turtle, I know this is dangerous, but this may be the key to solving the mystery of the hatred between the two tribes. We have come this far and cannot give up."

Old Turtle shook his head, his eyes full of worry: “Your determination is commendable, but sometimes impulse can lead us into an irretrievable situation.

Look at the runes on this portal. The power contained in them is not something we can easily control."

Fang Yue looked at the flashing runes on the portal and said, "Old Turtle, I saw some images in the crystal ball. The two tribes originally lived in harmony, but there was a mysterious evil force interfering.

I believe there is truth behind this portal, and perhaps a way to stop this hatred."

Old Turtle sighed, "Alas, you are too persistent. Since you have made up your mind, I can't just watch you take the risk alone. We will go in together, but you have to promise me that if we encounter uncontrollable danger, we will leave immediately."

Fang Yue nodded: "Okay, Mr. Turtle, I feel more confident with you here."

The two were about to approach the door when suddenly a strong wind blew out from the door, and there seemed to be a faint whisper in the wind. The sound was unclear, but it made people feel nervous.

Turtle Old's expression changed: "This wind is strange, as if it is warning us."

Fang Yue clenched his fists: "No matter what, we have to try. Old Turtle, you follow me."

They braved the strong wind and moved towards the gate step by step.

The moment they stepped into the portal, a powerful suction force suddenly pulled them in. The surroundings were flashing with light, as if they were passing through a passage made of light and shadow.

When they steadied themselves, they found themselves in a huge secret room.

An ancient and mysterious atmosphere permeated the secret room. The surrounding walls were engraved with various strange runes and patterns. These runes flickered with faint light, as if telling stories from the distant past.

However, they soon discovered something strange here. In the center of the secret room there were huge chains, which exuded a powerful restrictive force.

There seemed to be something sealed at the end of the chain. That thing was shrouded in a mist and could not be seen clearly, but one could feel that it contained an extremely terrifying power.

When the fog cleared, Fang Yue discovered that at the end of the chains was a huge demon.

The demon general's figure was as majestic as a mountain, and even though he was sealed, he still exuded a terrifying aura.

Its body is covered with ancient scars, as if telling of the fierce battles in the past. Each scar is like a mark of time, revealing a mysterious atmosphere.

Its face was ferocious and its eyes were tightly closed, but Fang Yue could feel that there seemed to be endless anger and resentment hidden in those closed eyes.

It has huge horns on its head, which are flashing with strange light, like the gathering point of some evil power.

Its limbs were extremely thick and were tightly bound with chains. Each chain was deeply embedded in its flesh, flowing with black blood. The blood dripped onto the ground, emitting bursts of black smoke that corroded the ground.

Fang Yue took a deep breath and said, "What kind of demon is this? Its aura is so shocking. Who sealed it here?"

Old Turtle said solemnly: "This is an ancient demon general!"

While Fang Yue was concentrating on studying the surrounding runes and looking for clues to strengthen the seal, a complex and resolute look flashed in Old Turtle's eyes.

He quietly moved to a corner where it was not easy to be noticed, muttered something, and began to make complex and ancient seals with his hands.

As the seal was completed, a dark and hidden power surged out from his palm and slowly spread towards the chains that sealed the ancient demon general.

This force was like a cunning poisonous snake, silently penetrating into the cracks in the seal.

The seal, which had already become somewhat loose due to the erosion of time, began to react violently under the impact of this evil force.

The light on the seal flickered, as if issuing a final warning, but was gradually suppressed by Old Turtle's magical power.

The ancient demon general seemed to have sensed the changes in the outside world. His eyes, which were originally tightly closed, trembled slightly. The black blood on his body flowed more violently, and the chains were also rattling as he struggled. With a low and terrifying roar, the cracks on the seal became larger and larger, and black smoke poured out of the cracks like a tide, instantly filling the entire secret room.

Fang Yue was shocked by this sudden change. He turned to look at Old Turtle, his eyes full of shock and disbelief: "Old Turtle, what are you doing?"

Old Turtle laughed wildly: "Hahaha, Fang Yue, you are too naive. I have waited for this moment for too long. Our demon race has been suppressed by humans for too long. Only by releasing this ancient demon general can we break this situation and let the demon race rise again."

Fang Yue shouted angrily: "You are crazy! Once this demon is unsealed, not only will the human race suffer, but the entire demon race will also be destroyed by it. It will not distinguish between humans and demons."

Old Turtle disagreed: "I have a way to control it. We, the demon race, will become its masters and rule this continent."

But Old Turtle had fallen into madness. He increased the output of his spells and injected more dark power into the seal.

With a flash of dazzling black light, the seal was completely broken and the ancient demon general broke free from his restraints.

It raised its huge head high, opened its bloody mouth, and let out a roar that shook the world. The entire secret room trembled violently at this roar, and the runes and patterns on the walls peeled off one after another.

The ancient demon looked at Fang Yue and others with its huge eyes, which were full of cruelty and desire for destruction.

It stomped its feet suddenly, and a powerful impact swept towards everyone.

Fang Yue hurriedly cast a defensive spell and barely blocked this wave of attacks, but he was still shaken and his blood was boiling.

"Old Turtle, you have committed an unforgivable crime!" Fang Yue glared at Old Turtle, flames of anger burning in his eyes.

Old Turtle just sneered as he watched all this. He shouted to the ancient demon general:

"Great demon general, please fulfill our contract and kill all these humans so that the demon race can regain its glory."

However, the ancient demon general didn't seem to take Old Turtle's words to heart at all. It waved its huge claws and slapped in the direction of Old Turtle.

Turtle Old's eyes widened in horror. He had not expected that he would be attacked by a demon general.

"No, you can't do this to me!"

His voice was soon drowned out by the roar of the demon general's attack.

Old Turtle was hit hard by the giant claws of the ancient demon general. His body flew out like a kite with a broken string and hit the wall of the secret room heavily. Huge cracks suddenly appeared on the wall.

Blood gushed out of his mouth and his eyes were full of fear and despair. He thought he had the situation under control, but in an instant, it pushed him to the brink of death.

Fang Yue looked at the miserable state of Turtle Old Man without any sympathy in his heart, because it was all his own fault.

Fang Yue's eyes flashed, knowing that this was a matter of life and death. He tightly gripped the weapon in his hand and exerted his energy to the extreme.

The weapon emitted a dazzling light under the infusion of vital energy, confronting the tyrannical aura of the ancient demon general.

"Come on, you devil, don't even think about breaking the seal!"

Fang Yue roared angrily and rushed towards the ancient demon general like lightning.

He displayed a set of exquisite sword techniques. Each sword contained powerful vitality, which transformed into sharp sword shadows and stabbed towards the vital points of the demon general.

Facing Fang Yue's attack, the ancient demon general let out an earth-shaking roar, the sound seemed to shatter a person's soul.

It waved its huge claws, creating a gust of wind that blew away Fang Yue's sword shadows.

Fang Yue only felt an overwhelming force pressing down on him. He hurriedly adjusted his body shape and forcefully changed direction in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.

After landing, Fang Yue launched another attack without any hesitation.

He stomped his feet on the ground, used the force to jump high, and rushed towards the ancient demon general like a meteor burning with vitality.

This time he changed his sword technique, and his sword moves became more sharp and strange. Each sword was accompanied by a whistling sound, and pierced directly into the demon general's eyes, throat and other vulnerable parts.

The ancient demon general seemed to be angered by Fang Yue's provocation. It opened its bloody mouth and spewed out a black smoke.

The smoke contained a powerful corrosive force, and wherever it went, the stones on the ground were corroded with a sizzling sound.

Seeing this, Fang Yue quickly held his breath and at the same time cast an energy shield to wrap himself in it.

The black smoke hit the shield, making crackling sounds, and the vital energy light on the shield kept flickering, as if it would break at any time.

Just as Fang Yue was struggling to hold on and felt that his shield was about to break, the ancient demon attacked again. Its huge tail was like a black whip, sweeping towards Fang Yue with the power to destroy everything. Fang Yue tried his best to hold the sword in front of him, trying to block the attack. However, the difference in strength between the two was too great, and Fang Yue was hit hard like a fallen leaf, falling heavily to the ground, with blood gushing out of his mouth.

At this time, he was already seriously injured and his vision began to blur, but he still had a trace of unwillingness in his heart.

The ancient demon slowly walked towards Fang Yue, and every step made the ground tremble. There was a tyrannical light flashing in its eyes, and it seemed to enjoy Fang Yue's despair.

Just as the ancient demon general raised his claws to give Fang Yue the final blow, a white figure appeared like lightning.

It was the fox girl who had left before. She was wearing a snow-light veil, and her face was beautiful yet cold.

The fox girl was waving a ribbon that was emitting soft light in her hand. The ribbon seemed to have life and instantly wrapped around the claws of the ancient demon general, stopping its attack.

This is an ancient treasure of the demon clan passed down in her family, and it is also the treasure of the fox clan.

Now, facing such a powerful enemy, we have to take it out!
"Hmph, you damned guy, don't hurt him!" The fox girl's voice was clear and pleasant, but it carried unquestionable majesty.

The ancient demon general was enraged by the fox girl's obstruction. He roared and tried to break free from the ribbon and pounced on the fox girl.

But he was bound by the ancient treasure and was unable to break free for a while.

"Fang Yue, are you okay?" The fox girl dodged the attack while looking at Fang Yue with concern.

Fang Yue raised his head with difficulty, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "You... why are you here?"

"Don't talk yet, we have to get out of here."

After the fox girl finished speaking, the magic gesture in her hand changed, and the ribbon rolled up Fang Yue and flew towards a corner of the secret room.

There is a hidden passage there, which the fox girl discovered by chance before. (End of this chapter)
