Fifty meters ahead of Chi Jiujiu and Shen Mojin, in a huge demon cave on the cliff halfway up the mountain, the damp and smelly ground was covered with corpses and bloody human limbs.
The air here is filled with a suffocating stench.
All kinds of bizarre monsters were crawling on the pile of bones. In another corner of the monster cave, a dozen ordinary people, whose bodies were in tatters, huddled together and shivered.
"The food of the villagers in Shuimeng Village tastes terrible!"
The rat demon with a human body and a rat head glanced at the terrified villagers of Shuimeng Village in the corner, his eyes full of disgust.
"That's right, otherwise we wouldn't bother catching them if we didn't want to fill our stomachs. We'll eat them when we're really hungry." The monster with an ox head and a snake body echoed.
The bats, covered in black demonic energy, interrupted, "Next time, let's go to another village. We've eaten all the young children in Shuimeng Village, and all that's left are old bones."
“Boom!”
Suddenly, a loud noise was heard outside the demon cave.
???
All the demons looked up, thousands of eyes fixed on the cave entrance and the massive Bat King hanging from the stone beam. "Rat demon, go! See what's going on outside!"
The fear on the faces of the captured villagers froze instantly.
Among the villagers, a woman in blue clothes had a hint of joy on her face. Is there someone coming from the outside world?
She whispered a few words in a sweet voice to the old man in sackcloth who was standing closest to her.
[Woman: Daddy, from the noise, it seems that Tiger Boy has escaped and asked the immortals from Yunyin Mountain to rescue us.
We must remain calm and not anger these demons.
They've just finished a meal and aren't very hungry yet. Once the immortal arrives, we'll find a chance to escape.]
[Old man: I know, my second daughter-in-law.]
The woman in green secretly glanced at the demon, and then whispered a few words of slang into the ears of the other villagers that the demon could not understand.
The fear on the faces of the villagers of Shuimeng Village gradually turned into calmness, and a glimmer of hope rose in their hearts.
At this time, the rat demon who had gone out to investigate the situation came back.
The rat demon raised his head and respectfully said to the largest black bat hanging on the stone beam, "King, there is a female cultivator with a very pleasant aura undergoing tribulation outside.
Judging from the intensity of the thunder tribulation, it should be the Nascent Soul stage.
Next to this female cultivator, there is a man who doesn't seem to have any cultivation experience. Should we—?"
The bat king on the beam spread his wings and pounced on the pile of bones. When he looked at the demons crawling around him, his reddish-brown eyes flashed with a scary light.
The rat demon lowered his head slightly, not daring to look directly at the Bat King.
The Bat King laughed loudly, "Great! Great, great, great! Monks, eating this will increase your cultivation. All demons, listen to my command and immediately head to the Demonic Abyss to capture the human monks!"
"yes!"
The demons responded and let out strange laughter.
At this time, the barrier of the demon cave was opened by the Bat King, and the fragrance from fifty meters away spread into the demon cave, and the demons instantly became alert.
Chirp... Chirp... Smell... It smells so good...
At this moment, the Bat King was intoxicated for a few seconds.
Then, a cold voice emanated from his throat, and he issued an order to the demons, "Wait, all the rat demons, go ahead and investigate, and the bat demons and snake queens, surround the human cultivators.
I will... catch the little thing myself!"
Dozens of meters away, the thunderstorm in the sky continued, and Chi Jiujiu hadn't noticed yet that a not-so-dangerous danger was quietly approaching.
The moment the barrier of the demon cave was opened, Shen Mojin smelled a suffocating and foul odor.
He expanded his consciousness to investigate the situation, his eyes turned cold, and he stretched out his hand to set up a barrier a few meters away.
"It's not appropriate to take action now. Wait until Jiujiu has completed her tribulation, and then we can deal with these demons." Shen Mojin's gaze returned to Chi Jiujiu, but his spiritual sense was paying attention to the thousands of eyes around him.
Bat King said, "Tree demon, use your branches to pull this female cultivator over here. It's hard to attack now because we're within the range of the lightning. We might get struck by mistake."
However, when the tree demon extended its roots to the barrier set up by Shen Mojin, its roots were suddenly cut off by a mysterious force.
“Hiss, ahhhhh…!!!”
Bat King, "Shut up, what's going on?"
The tree demon said with pain in his foot, "King, I was struck in the foot by the power of the lightning tribulation and lost a finger. There's something wrong with this female cultivator. The power of the Heavenly Dao was protecting her when she was going through the tribulation."
In the darkness, the Bat King stared at Chi Jiujiu who was undergoing the tribulation for a few seconds.
"Wait! As soon as this thunder tribulation disappears, capture these two human cultivators. The female cultivator will be mine, and you can divide the remaining male cultivator among yourselves."
"Yes, King."
....BOOM...BOOM....!!
Chi Jiujiu quickly experienced the 31st, 32nd,..., 53rd thunder tribulation. The thunder tribulations in the world of cultivation are more normal than the last.
Her divine body had been severely tempered, so she was not afraid of the thunder tribulation of the fusion stage at all.
"Boom!" As the last thunder tribulation came down.
A torrential downpour of spiritual rain fell on Chi Jiujiu, healing the internal injuries she sustained from the last lightning strike at the peak of South City.
The dryad moved again, extending its black roots.
As it got closer to Chi Jiujiu, as expected, the tree demon lost another toe.
“Ahhhh…!!!”
The Bat King's pupils met, "Shut up, wait a moment, something strange is happening!"
A quarter of an hour passed.
After the spiritual rain ended, Chi Jiujiu successfully advanced to the fusion stage, but her strength far exceeded that of ordinary fusion cultivators and was almost comparable to that of the Mahayana stage cultivators.
At this time, the surrounding environment was still as dark as ink, and the two continued to use the night pearls for lighting.
The light of the night pearl could only illuminate an area of two meters in the miasma-filled abyss, and the surrounding scenery was blurry and difficult to distinguish.
The two men were standing on irregular black stones.
Shen Mojin's bony hand tightly held Chi Jiujiu's slender hand. He took Chi Jiujiu and took two tentative steps forward, approaching the Bat King's position.
Ta-da... Ta-da...
The sound of footsteps on stones was particularly obvious in the silent abyss.
"Ajin, there's no need to go forward, let's go back?" Chi Jiujiu said after a slight hesitation. Grandpa was probably still waiting at the manor.
Go back early so that the old man can rest assured.
Suddenly, the air was filled with a foul stench that even gas masks couldn't block out.
Her spiritual sense detected that there were unknown creatures lurking around, and there were quite a few of them. The unknown creatures were staring at the two of them with a fierce look?
"Jiujiu, don't be anxious. Wait a moment. Your husband will help you consolidate your cultivation." Shen Mojin's lips curled up, but the smile in his eyes did not reach his eyes.
There was a hint of demonic coldness in his tone.
After he was promoted to a true god, he became more sensitive to the breath of demons.
Not to mention the evil demons or monsters that do many evil things. The evil spirit that haunts them is too strong and very easy to identify.
The miasma in the abyss contains a lot of evil spirits, which shows that the monsters around are not good monsters.
Moreover, this group of demons wanted to capture him and Jiujiu and eat their flesh and blood, so they could not be kept.
"Okay!" Chi Jiujiu responded.
As she finished speaking, her earrings swung violently.
"Huohuo?" Chi Jiujiu was surprised.
