Chapter 107 First Test of the Moon Demon Eye
As Su Yu headed towards the main ridge of Zhongbai Mountain, the closer she got to the foot of the ridge, the fewer traces of demons and magical beasts she found.
It's true that this place is helpful for ice-type cultivators, but there's also a restriction on this mountain.
Starting from the foot of the mountain, the higher one goes, the thinner the demonic energy that climbers can sense and mobilize becomes. Eventually, they not only cannot absorb external demonic energy, but they also cannot use the demonic energy stored within themselves. Only when they reach the very top can they sense demonic energy again to cultivate.
In Jingdian's words, all things have a spirit, and the main vein of Zhongbai Mountain does not accept the cowardly and rigid.
However, most demons are born immersed in the demonic energy of heaven and earth and are familiar with being with it. Since they don't necessarily need to come to these ghostly places that suppress demons to cultivate, there are indeed not many demons on this mountain.
Of course, there have been quite a few demons to challenge over the years. Not long after Su Yu went up the mountain, he encountered a demon who was shirtless and ran down the mountain shouting.
It swept past him like the wind, kicking up a cloud of dust, and disappeared in a moment.
He subconsciously analyzed it for a moment.
The clothing and accessories had no obvious markings, indicating that the demon was not from one of the eight great families of Baicheng. The large cleaver on his back looked like a magical artifact produced by the Ghost Puppet Sect and sold to the public.
He has many large, obvious scars on his body, like those inflicted by magical beasts, indicating that he focuses on body training.
The remaining trousers were also thin, and the outer garment he had taken off was probably not thick either. It was as if the foolish demon, who thought he was strong and healthy enough to withstand the low temperature, had become hypothermic and was thus abnormally removing his clothes.
It was probably thanks to the demons' naturally strong physique and spirit that, after stripping down to their pants, they regained their senses and knew to run back. Leaving the demon-forbidden zone would save their lives.
Most likely, it's a rogue cultivator.
Su Yu silently wrapped the fluffy scarf around her neck and buried half of her face in it.
Without the protection of demonic energy, the environment in some parts of the demon realm is so harsh that it can almost be called a natural disaster.
He continued walking upwards, and in the wind and snow, all his footprints were covered and submerged behind him.
As the demonic energy within his body gradually stagnated, Su Yu carefully examined himself and felt that things were alright; at least the physical condition of a demon was much stronger than when he was human.
If we hurry, we can reach the top before evening.
"Boom!"
He was so cold that it took him a beat to react and look up.
Not far away, layers of white, indistinct clumps surged and spread rapidly downwards.
Su Yu: Wait, what the hell?
Avalanche?!
The noise from that demon's cry was too loud!
Wait until he goes downstairs, don't let him find that bastard, he's going to beat the devil up!!
Su Yu quickly changed direction to the side and used the last of her available demonic energy to accelerate.
The system's teleportation might be safer, but considering the unpleasant nature of the main ridge of Zhongbai Mountain, he decided to stick to climbing it himself.
After avoiding the avalanche and continuing on their way, their exposed eyelashes were covered with a layer of frost, making it difficult to even blink.
Su Yu trudged through the waist-deep snow, finally reaching the last magic-free zone.
There's a steep cliff; once you climb it, you can resume your cultivation of demonic energy.
The rocks are jagged and exposed, cold as knives, covered with frost, making them slippery to the touch.
Su Yu paused for a moment, then abandoned the free climb and expressionlessly pulled out...
After internal system modifications, it is specially designed for staff members who encounter dangerous situations such as falling off cliffs. It can extend up to 2,000 meters, the base is stable and unshakable, and it can be recycled at any time after use. It is also effective for unexpectedly moving it out to hit people. It is an essential item for the Time Management Bureau when going on missions.
Haha, he wouldn't climb with his bare hands. It's not elegant at all. It's not like he'll die if he doesn't climb. Why waste all that effort?
Losing demonic energy doesn't mean losing one's brain; intelligence is also part of one's physical strength. He believed that Zhongbai Mountain Spirit wouldn't misjudge his clever use of external forces.
He didn't use any demonic energy. ^_^
The clouds atop the main ridge of Zhongbai Mountain seemed to tremble.
Su Yu ignored it and climbed to the top with ease.
The stagnant demonic energy within his body surged anew, and the dense demonic energy of heaven and earth rushed towards him. He didn't rush to circulate his energy for cultivation. After scanning his surroundings, he locked onto a cave left behind by a former demon amidst the vast whiteness and went straight there.
After cleaning and tidying up the cave, and sealing the entrance with array formations, Su Yu finally sat down in the small space for cultivation.
He didn't rush to start cultivating, but instead focused his mind on his eyes.
This was the first time he had ever tried using the Moon Demon Eye.
The concealing black faded, revealing his pupils as a cold, deep purple, with a fleeting glimmer of light.
He wanted to see what kind of person Feng Huaijin was after ascending to the position of Demon Lord.
Su Yu gritted his teeth inwardly. This kid was really giving him a headache, but he was the one who raised him and had even interfered with the demon's original life path. What else could he do but accept it and try to figure out a solution? He couldn't just abandon him like that.
His damn sense of responsibility!
A white mist seemed to gather in front of me for a moment, and when I opened my eyes again, it felt like I was in a different place.
The grand hall was gloomy and luxurious.
The surrounding pillars were carved with dragons and inlaid with jade, and heavy black and purple curtains covered the windows, leaving only a faint light inside the hall.
Su Yu silently stepped forward and touched the pillar, her hand passing right through it.
So this is the medium behind the Moon Demon Eye.
It allows the Moon Demon to witness everything it wants to see in its soul form.
No wonder everyone talks about the Moon Demon as if he were a god; he's seen everything with his own eyes.
After wandering around the hall for a while, Su Yu entered the inner hall.
Inside the inner hall, a few "crackling" sounds could be heard from time to time, which sounded like the cracking of a high-grade magic stone.
On the bed, a male demon, dressed in loose clothes, with his chest exposed and long hair flowing, was lying diagonally. He was idly crushing a magic stone and then throwing the small pieces of magic stone into an upside-down skull not far away.
Numerous magical artifacts, elixirs, magical plants, and magical fruits, all considered priceless treasures, were scattered carelessly on the ground, some even covered in dust.
The only thing visible was a sword leaning against the collapsed edge, with the character "弑" (shì, meaning "to kill") engraved on the exposed side of the hilt.
Su Yu: ... Calm down.
In the original story, Twelve should indeed be called Feng Shi. It's not unacceptable that the demon has grown up and has his own preferences for clothing and slightly strange hobbies.
The communication stone that had been thrown into the collapsed area lit up briefly.
Without even looking up, the demon beckoned with his finger, and the demonic energy obediently picked up the communication stone and brought it to him. Then, an unknown demonic voice came from the communication stone: "Your Excellency, the Qingyang Domain of the Upper Spirit Realm has been breached. May I ask your opinion...?"
Before he could finish speaking, he received two emotionless words.
I can't calm down at all.
Su Yu: Ahhhhhh! My damn brother has gone completely awry without my knowledge!
However, the Moon Demon Eye can only observe and cannot affect what it observes.
Su Yu pinched his philtrum and tried to take a deep breath. Although he no longer had a physical body, he felt that his heart urgently needed to be saved.
Why is it crooked? Why is it crooked? Huh?!
How did the child he raised with such hardship, acting as his brother, mother, and father all at once, turn out so badly?!
Is this some kind of twisted plot twist?
Does this do justice to all his hard work over the years?
He doesn't acknowledge this person as his brother!
Under intense stimulation, the effects of the Moon Demon Eye abruptly ended.
