Chapter 103 Where is this?
When Yunxi woke up again, before she even opened her eyes, she sensed something was wrong. There was a lot of powerful pressure, but it wasn't intentionally released; it was the aura that came naturally from a high-level cultivator.
Under pressure, Yunxi opened her eyes and was startled by the gaping maw so close to her. She immediately backed away.
As the distance increased, Yunxi finally saw the enormous beast's head clearly. Its eyes were almost completely covered by fur, and its blood-red tongue was constantly drooling. Yunxi then noticed that there was already a large puddle of water on the floor, with a strong, fishy stench.
"It smells so good, I really want to swallow it whole~" The huge beast head suddenly spoke in human language.
Before Yunxi could even feel scared, a sneer suddenly came from the side, "You gluttonous monster, you can't eat this!"
Upon hearing this sound, Yunxi suddenly realized that there wasn't just one beast head with a gaping mouth here; she was surrounded by demonic beasts!
Where is this?
She soon found out the answer.
A dragon gleaming with black light lazily raised its head and asked Yunxi, "Little human, what's going on outside? Why did you come to the Demon Suppression Tower all by yourself?"
Yunxi exclaimed in surprise, "The Demon-Suppressing Tower?!"
A nine-tailed fox, pure white, groomed its smooth fur as it spoke, "Yes, this is the Demon-Suppressing Tower, the ninth level. How come you, little brat, wandered in without knowing anything?"
Yunxi shook her head. All she knew was that she was about to leave when suddenly a white light flashed, and she lost consciousness. When she woke up, she was here.
This place is actually the Demon-Suppressing Tower. The one she saw at the beginning must have been the Taotie, which can devour everything and is very delicious.
Looking around again, there were also Qiongqi, the Nine-Headed White Snake, the Golden Toad, the Crimson Flame Golden Lion, the Blood Demon...
Any one of them could easily defeat her.
However, she soon realized that the reason she was still alive was because of the restrictions placed here.
As expected, the gluttonous beast that wanted to devour her was actually just a wisp of divine consciousness; its true form was blocked by the special fence inside the Demon Suppression Tower.
Perhaps to prevent these monsters from fighting if they were kept together, each one was kept in a separate enclosure.
Yunxi had always thought that each of these demonic beasts was on its own, but she never expected that the ten most powerful ones were locked on the top floor.
Yunxi, who was only at the Nascent Soul stage, was still too inexperienced to face these powerful demons. She was like a little child, and the demons easily noticed her confusion.
"Suppressing us won't be that easy. The materials for the Demon Suppression Tower are not easy to gather. Those few stubborn old men only managed to gather enough for one level to imprison us. Those imprisoned below are just small fry. They may have already fend for themselves down there," the black dragon said disdainfully.
The white fox chimed in, "It's because they're so poor that I have to hang out with you guys, especially the big black bear. He's sleeping, and his snoring is so loud it's ruining my beauty sleep!"
Knowing that these demonic beasts couldn't harm her, Yunxi felt much more at ease, so she simply listened to what they said.
While listening to the great demons bickering, he looked around for a way to teleport himself out.
"Hey human little brat, stop wandering around. You're making me dizzy. It's probably an accident that you got in here. If you want to leave, just wait patiently. You'd be better off telling us stories and telling us what it's like outside," the Crimson Flame Golden Lion said in a deep voice.
These are the only ones currently active. Other monsters either put themselves into a state of slumber or, for example, a large monster like this could sleep for tens of thousands of years.
Yunxi searched very carefully, looking through the open space outside the iron bars and the walls, but found nothing unusual. Knowing that they weren't lying to her, she had no choice but to stop searching.
Although she knew these monsters couldn't hurt her, she was still afraid of the possibility, so Yunxi didn't dare to cultivate. Instead, she took out snacks and a sketchbook and started eating snacks while looking at the sketchbook.
This made the gluttonous beast extremely hungry. "Little girl, don't you know how to respect the elderly and care for the young? Share some with me!"
The white fox laughed at him, "You're so greedy, even stealing things from little kids."
Seeing that they were arguing again, Yunxi quickly took out the snacks she had stockpiled from her storage ring and threw them at Taotie.
Seeing Taotie swallow the snacks whole without even tearing open the packaging, Yunxi was dumbfounded, inwardly cursing, "He's such a wild boar, he can't eat fine food! He just wastes all the good stuff!"
"Little girl, are you insulting me?"
Yunxi shook her head. "No, it's just that you might want to try peeling off the outer layer before eating it. It tastes better that way."
Taotie smacked his lips and said, "What a hassle. I think it tastes pretty good. This way I can eat it faster. Little girl, do you have any more? Give me some more."
The dragon couldn't stand it anymore. "Old glutton, you should stop now. How much can your mouth handle? Little one, you might as well share some with us too, so we can savor it slowly."
The white fox was grooming its fur again. "That's right, the last time I ate food from outside was probably 100,000 years ago. I'll try some too."
Yunxi had no choice but to take out a lot of snacks and throw a lot of them in front of each monster.
"Little girl, what were you looking at just now? Was it some kind of cultivation technique?" The white fox slowly pried open the snack packaging with its front paws, then became curious about what Yunxi had been looking at so intently.
Yunxi held up the storybook in her hand. "This is a storybook. I read it to pass the time."
Upon hearing that it could help pass the time, several conscious demon beasts looked over. "Passing the time? That's a good thing. Do you have any more for us?"
Yunxi was helpless; these demonic beasts, who could easily live for tens or hundreds of thousands of years, were acting like children.
However, she did have quite a few storybooks in her storage ring, so she distributed all the ones she had read to them.
Then, in the next second, several demonic beasts transformed into human form right in front of Yunxi.
The nine-tailed white fox, in particular, transforms into a stunningly beautiful woman, adorned in elaborate and gorgeous attire, with upturned phoenix eyes that are alluring yet devoid of any frivolousness.
After the white fox transformed, it conjured up a recliner covered in pure white fur, which looked very comfortable.
The white fox casually reclined on the lounge chair, then placed the snacks into individual glass cups, gently picking them up with her fingers while holding a storybook in her other hand…
What a beautiful woman...
"White Fox, you shameless old fox! You're hundreds of thousands of years old, using your charm on a little child. Have you no shame?" The dragon couldn't stand it anymore.
The white snake nodded in agreement, "That's right, be careful not to suck the soul away from that child..."
Yunxi only then felt her mind return to clarity, and thought to herself how terrifying it was that even without using magic, these demonic beasts could easily deal with her.
Before Yunxi could even celebrate her breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage, she was already worried that her life might end at any moment.
