They appear and disappear unpredictably, launching attacks suddenly and catching people completely off guard. Their attacks strike directly at the soul, causing excruciating pain.

It took Fan Mingzhu two years to finally be able to deal with them freely.

Now, it's time for Shi Xuan to speak!

She wanted to see how Shi Xuan would deal with these demons.

What she really wanted to see was the horrific torture Shi Xuan endured by these demons!

By then, Xuan had collected most of the poisonous herbs in his area, and it was getting dark.

Shi Xuan released his divine sense to observe the surrounding situation.

There was no one there, but some monsters were lurking, waiting for their chance to strike.

These monsters seemed to be formed from demonic energy, without any physical form. In Shi Xuan's eyes, they were just clumps of black energy.

Compared to the demonic energy in the environment here, the demonic energy on the bodies of those monsters was almost solidified!

Even before those things attacked Shi Xuan, she could already feel piles of demonic energy enveloping her, drilling into her meridians in waves, let alone if she were to come into contact with it.

So, Fan Mingzhu left her here because she wanted to see her corrupted by these demons and gradually become possessed by them?

Her plan is likely to fail.

At this moment, Hong Chi, who rarely spoke, spoke in Shi Xuan's consciousness: "He said he was bringing me out to see the world, and it really has broadened my horizons. Now I've fallen into the abyss of demons, tsk tsk!"

"I'm already in this state, and you're still joking around, senior," Shi Xuan said in a relaxed tone, showing no sign of anxiety. "Please hurry and save this junior."

"Hmph," Hong Chi sneered before speaking, as always: "Do I not know you? You have a chaotic spiritual root, what are you afraid of demonic energy for? The demonic energy of this entire Demon Abyss is not much different from spiritual energy to you, and you still have the nerve to ask me to save you."

Shi Xuan immediately changed the tone of his speech: "That is to say, when you come out to watch the excitement, you naturally have to see all sorts of things. Scenery like the Demon Abyss is not common."

Hong Chi rolled his eyes at her and dragged her down with him. Shi Xuan still had the nerve to argue.

“However, there is one thing,” Hong Chi said, his joking expression fading, “I noticed that the woman I met with you earlier has quite a secret.”

"Oh?" Shi Xuan was very interested. "Please tell me in detail, senior."

“I sensed two different auras in her. One was very clear, that she was a demon. The other should be a human soul, like mine.”

"A demonic seed? A human soul?" That's quite interesting. No wonder Fan Mingzhu entered the demonic path so smoothly and even learned how to conceal her identity; it was probably taught to her by this human soul.

It seems Fan Mingzhu has had quite a few opportunities, but they all seem to be unfortunate ones, not guiding her towards a good path.

But then again, if a person is of good character, how could these evil things possibly have the chance to succeed!

As darkness fell, these monsters hidden in the shadows began to stir.

They blend into the darkness, and if an ordinary cultivator were here, it would be difficult to spot them; they might even fall into their sneak attack.

But Shi Xuan was different. Her divine sense had already been qualitatively enhanced in the Nine-Story Pagoda, and with the help of the power of all things, those dark things had nowhere to hide in her eyes.

So when the first monster approached, Shi Xuan seemed completely unprepared, but her sword had already slashed in that direction, instantly scattering the monster.

But the monster had no physical form; after being scattered, it would gather again elsewhere, giving it a sense of endless regeneration.

Upon seeing them, Shi Xuan immediately understood. These demonic creatures, formed from the source of demonic energy, had developed a trace of intelligence due to the long-term condensation of demonic essence, much like some spiritual creatures in the cultivation world that had been exposed to spiritual energy for a long time.

To completely eliminate these demons, all that is needed is to remove their demonic energy, after which they will have no chance to coalesce again.

Since falling into the Demon Abyss, Shi Xuan has been keeping all things alive and has not been absorbing demonic energy indiscriminately.

Although the combination of the All Things Grow and the Chaos Spiritual Root made the difference between demonic energy and spiritual energy negligible for her, the thought that it was demonic energy still caused her some psychological resistance.

But now it seems that there's no other way but to compromise.

Left with no other choice, Shi Xuan had to use these wandering demons as tools for cultivation, and began to cultivate in this desolate demon abyss.

It would be too troublesome to deal with them one by one, so Shi Xuan simply placed the Wanwu Sheng in the direction where there were the most monsters.

As Shi Xuan's cultivation level increased, the range that Wanwu Sheng could cover also became wider and wider. When it was released all at once, it instantly enveloped a large area of ​​demons.

Those demons were formed from the purest demonic energy, making the demonic energy content in the Demon Abyss relatively thin in comparison.

The demonic energy attacks of monsters are extremely harmful to humans, and since they have no physical form, they are very difficult to catch and kill.

However, Shi Xuan did not treat them as living entities, but only as spiritual energy pools, which solved all his problems.

Thus, these monsters that caused Fan Mingzhu and the others so much trouble—being impossible to catch or kill—were reduced to "food" level.

The monsters didn't understand; they hadn't even started attacking this human yet, so why were they getting weaker and weaker?

Before long, the demonic creatures that had been shrouded in the multitude of creatures began to fade visibly.

The monster, which used to be so thick it was almost dripping with ink, has become somewhat transparent after being peeled away layer by layer by the myriad beings.

During this time, some monsters still tried to attack Shi Xuan, but their every move was under Shi Xuan's watchful eye, and their attacks missed every time.

This was the first time Shi Xuan had clearly experienced the benefits of the Chaos Spiritual Root. In the past, she could also absorb other powers for her own use, but her conversion ability was limited. Once she absorbed too much, it would take a relatively long time to digest and absorb it.

This Chaos Spiritual Root is one that accepts all kinds of energy as long as they enter, making them all available for its use.

At that moment, a black, almost tangible demonic aura surged towards Shi Xuan, completely enveloping him in black mist, obscuring his face from the outside.

At this moment, Fan Mingzhu quietly appeared. She looked in the direction of Shi Xuan from afar and saw that she was completely swallowed up by the thick black demonic energy. Her face could not be seen at all. She could only occasionally release a sword aura to try to disperse the demonic energy, but it had no effect at all.

Fan Mingzhu smiled silently.

This scene seemed so familiar. Back then, she was the same way, besieged by monsters every night. That year, she almost went mad.

Now, it's finally time for Shi Xuan to speak.

Under the influence of this heavy demonic energy, no one could avoid being corrupted. She couldn't wait to see Shi Xuan's fate.

That arrogant genius, who was looked down upon by everyone, she wanted to see what would happen to him after he fell into demonic possession!

Falling from the clouds into the mud is the most interesting thing in the world.
