"What's third gear?"
Li Xuan still asked.
"Within our demon clan, the strength of the demon lords is divided into five levels. The first level is the strongest, and the third level is equivalent to the top ten of your human race's sixth-level combat power list."
Gray Eyes explained as he walked.
The top ten on the battle power list... I've fought against Luo Chen, who was ranked eleventh on the battle power list before. Although he suffered some losses, it was only because of his skills. He was still far inferior to him in strength.
"Since the Blood Moon Demon Lord is so powerful, why did you bring me there? What exactly do you want me to do?" Li Xuan couldn't help but ask.
He didn't even know what the subsequent mission was, so he just followed Huitong and wandered around the demon territory.
The figure with gray eyes paused for a moment, then said, "My mission is to take you to the Blood Moon Pond. As for what to do, there's no specific mission assigned to me!"
Grass!
Li Xuan couldn't help but curse in his heart. He didn't even tell him what the mission was. He knew nothing about it. Why was he just going there like that?
If he were to face the Sword God again now, he couldn't help but step forward and question: Is it fun to treat us as pawns?
"So you brought me there, and then you slipped away, right?" Li Xuan said very dissatisfiedly.
Huitong did not answer and continued to lead Li Xuan forward. It seemed that he had explored this route into the Blood Moon Pool in advance.
The road was smooth and unobstructed until we arrived at a large lake.
At this moment, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse. A bright moon hangs in the deep blue sky dotted with stars.
"The Blood Moon Demon Lord will practice in the center of the lake when the moon hangs in the middle of the lake." Gray Eyes said slowly.
Li Xuan stared at the lake in silence, wondering what would happen if he just left and didn't follow the arrangements?
"Without my guidance, the probability of you returning to the city gate from the Blood Moon Demon Lord's territory alone is zero!" Gray Eyes' voice coincidentally rang in Li Xuan's ears.
"You can read minds!"
Li Xuan turned his head and looked at him.
"When the Blood Moon Demon Lord practices, you will understand what you have to do."
After leaving these words, Huitong left without looking back.
Grass!
Li Xuan now had no choice but to hide his breath and wait quietly by the lake.
Not long after, two figures flew over from a distance, one tall and majestic, the other slender and weak with long hair.
Li Xuan held his breath and retreated into the reeds by the lake, watching them through the gaps.
As the two figures gradually approached the lake, Li Xuan could see their appearance clearly. The tall figure flying in front was wearing a dark robe, had purple skin unique to the demons, and his pupils were a strange blood red.
Based on the characteristics, Li Xuan knew that this person was the Blood Moon Demon Lord.
The figure behind has snow-white skin, big and bright eyes, and is as beautiful as an angel. There is innocence between her eyebrows. She is exactly like a beautiful human girl.
"Human? A traitor? Or a kidnapped hostage?"
Li Xuan was puzzled and continued to look around secretly in the reed marsh.
Two figures came to the lake. After the Blood Moon Demon Lord whispered a few words to the human girl, he flew to the lake alone.
Wow!
The Blood Moon Demon Lord opened his eyes wide, and red light burst out from his eyes, almost instantly filling the entire lake, turning the lake directly into blood red.
Even the moon in the sky seemed to be covered with a layer of red. At this moment, this lake truly lived up to its name, Blood Moon Lake!
The blood color in the Blood Moon Demon Lord's eyes gradually gathered into a blood-red bead, and all the energy around it was converging on the blood-red bead.
Just by looking at it from a distance, Li Xuan could feel the terrifying energy contained in this bead, and after the Blood Moon Demon Lord condensed this blood bead, his aura obviously declined a lot.
His strength even dropped to the level of a high-level demon lord, and that red bead clearly condensed most of his strength.
"So this is how he practices. No wonder he doesn't let anyone get close to him when he's practicing."
Release all of your own essence, so that you can absorb the essence of the moon more quickly with the help of the special characteristics of this place.
Li Xuan was in the reed marsh, and an idea popped up in his mind.
As for the girl who was watching by the lake, he completely ignored her.
It doesn’t matter what her identity is, as long as her strength can’t hinder me!
At this moment, Li Xuan was like a cheetah hiding in the jungle, his nerves tense, staring at his prey and waiting for an opportunity to strike.
The Blood Moon Demon Lord was too close to the blood bead, and if he attacked now, he would be exposed to the range of his mental power. He could immediately swallow the blood bead again and restore his peak combat power.
But as long as there is an opportunity, he can kill the weakened Blood Moon Demon Lord in one fell swoop, and also get the blood bead, although he doesn't know whether it will be of any use to him.
As time passed and the moon moved directly above the lake, the surrounding red light reached its peak brightness.
Click!
A crisp sound came from inside the red bead, and a crack appeared. After the red bead shattered, the more crystal clear red color inside was revealed.
The aura rose again. The Blood Moon Demon Lord, whose strength was already at the peak of the sixth level, looked at the red bead with eyes full of surprise.
"It's done!"
He had spent more than ten years coming here every fifteenth day of every month to refine this red blood bead, and now he had finally raised it to a higher level.
As long as he swallows it now, he will be able to break through to the seventh level of the Demon King and become a truly respectable figure among the demons.
This was the result of his more than ten years of hard work in the realm of Demon Lord, but at this moment he did not choose to swallow the blood bead to improve his realm.
Instead, he turned and flew towards the human girl by the lake.
"Your Highness, the Blood-colored Sky Pearl has been refined. As long as you swallow it and absorb it diligently, your strength will improve by leaps and bounds in a few days. It will at least help you reach the peak of the sixth level!"
The Blood Moon Demon Lord very respectfully presented the blood-colored Dzi bead that he had refined with great difficulty.
The human girl was only at the middle stage of the fifth stage. She looked at the blood-colored bead with displeasure: "This is your blood-colored Dzi bead."
She held the blood-colored Dzi bead in her hand and observed it. As long as she swallowed it, her realm would surpass her third brother.
The Blood Moon Demon Lord still lowered his head and asked respectfully, "Your Highness, the Demon Emperor promised me..."
"Oh, I see!"
Just as the human girl was about to swallow the blood-colored bead, a space ripple suddenly appeared around her.
A sword light flashed and went straight for the blood-colored Dzi bead in her hand.
“Bold!”
The Blood Moon Demon Lord jumped up immediately. Although he didn't know who dared to hide nearby and launch a sneak attack, he knew that nothing must happen to the prince in front of him, otherwise he would die a hundred times and it would not be enough.
