Du Ze didn't know if Xiu realized this. Under the torchlight, Xiu's expression was dim and difficult to discern. He stared at the magic teleportation array that Beliar had transformed into, and simply said, "Continue."

Xiu dragged Du Ze into the magic teleportation circle. Verla and Alice wiped their tears and followed with the others. Du Ze stared at Xiu's back and wanted to speak, but in the end he said nothing.

The group left Arena 68 and came to Arena 67. Because the demon sisters were still upset, it was Old John's turn to attack. Under the suppression of the Sword Master, the 67th Demon God only held out for a few seconds before being torn apart by Old John's fist blade and turned into a teleportation array leading to the next arena.

Old John glanced at the place where the demon disappeared and said to Xiu: "Young master should have noticed that the demon just now was an intermediate swordsman."

"They will become stronger and stronger." Xiu Du said firmly, looking up at the arena with a deep smile. "Otherwise it will be too boring."

In the 61st Arena, Xiu's statement was confirmed. The 61st Demon God has reached the level of a senior swordsman. Combining the previous situation, it can be roughly inferred that every six Demon Gods will upgrade their level. If the 54th Demon God is a junior great swordsman, then basically every eighteen Demon Gods will upgrade their level.

With Old John in the fight, they advanced very quickly, almost killing one demon every minute, and soon reached Arena 54. As expected, the 54th demon was indeed a junior great swordsman. Du Ze calculated that if this continued, they would encounter the Sword Saint in Arena 36 and start fighting the God of War in Arena 18.

Du Ze glanced at the team. Even though the swordsman-level demon sisters couldn't contribute much, there were also Sword Saint Old John, Black Dragon More, and the powerful Mengzhu. With such a gorgeous lineup, even if he and Ariel, who had negative combat power, were included, they would be crushed in the Demon Arena.

The silly reader feels that now is the time when high-level players with full-level god-level equipment bring their alts to refresh the dungeon.

As Du Ze thought, the group pushed forward all the way to Arena 38. After Belyar, they encountered the second conscious demon god: Harpas. Compared with Belyar's active concession, the attitude of this demon god who "mainly eats human flesh and is not very friendly to humans" towards them is completely... malicious.

"I am very unwilling. You have the future that should belong to me, while I can only be locked up here." Harpas said in a hoarse voice: "There is nothing here, only locust-like climbers - just like you."

"The only thing worth being happy about is that some tower climbers brought me rich food. I always find it hard to control myself when I eat human meat." Harpas stared at Du Ze in the team with bloodshot eyes. He licked his lips and said to Xiu, "If you give me that human, I can consider letting you pass for Baal's sake."

"Heh... this person is indeed delicious." Xiu laughed softly, his slightly deep voice showing a hoarseness and sexiness that makes people blush and their hearts beat faster. "But only I can taste it."

Harpas transformed into a black dove, narrowly avoiding the sword that was chopped at him by Xiu. He flew in the air above the arena, looking down. The demon with a pair of horns swung the silver-red sword in his hand, raised his head and revealed deep purple demon eyes, the cruelty contained in them was chilling.

"You shouldn't covet him." Xiu said.

Harpas made a hoarse cry, spread his wings to the maximum, and then flapped them vigorously. The black feathers shot down densely like flying arrows, and Mor transformed into a black dragon to protect everyone. The black feathers were unexpectedly sharp, and even broke through the hard scales of the dragon. Mor, who was blocking in front, roared with pain. He swept his tail fiercely, and the thorny tail pulled all the black feathers off.

Seeing that Mor had protected Du Ze and the others, Xiu used his bat wings to speed up and attacked Harpas with a knife. The moment Xiu approached, Harpas suddenly folded his wings, and a large number of black feathers were swept by the wind and fell down. This time they were no longer offensive, but to block the line of sight. Xiu was surrounded by black feathers, and a strong sense of crisis came to his mind. He almost instinctively raised the magic knife to block the left front.

“KANG——BOOM!!!”

Xiu was hit by the black dove and crashed deeply into the arena. The huge impact caused a circular collapse in the stone floor of the arena. Xiu was almost embedded in the stone floor. He pressed the magic knife with both hands and pressed hard against Harpas's beak. The sharp beak could pierce his chest if it went one step further. Xiu stared at Harpas who was so close to him, and his purple eyes began to light up.

“Sizzle——”

Even though Harpas was retreating fast enough, he was still struck by lightning on his tail feathers. The jumping arcs flowed along the feathers to his entire body in the blink of an eye. Although it did not cause much damage, it also brought a strong sense of paralysis. At the moment when Harpas paused due to paralysis, Xiu cut off the right wing of the black pigeon with a sword.

"Well--!"

Harpas fell heavily to the ground. He raised his head and looked angrily at Xiu who was stepping on him with his bloodshot eyes.

"Damn it! If I hadn't been restricted by the divine tower, how could you...!"

Harpas's words were interrupted by Xiu's swing of the knife. Xiu cut off the only remaining wing of the black dove. He bent down and looked down at Harpas who had returned to his human form. His long black hair flowed down, covering the bloody smile on the corner of his mouth.

"You remind me of a person who once took Du Ze's left hand." Xiu's smile deepened, as if he recalled something interesting and wanted to share it with Harpas. "Do you know what I did afterwards?"

The magic knife silently cut into Harpas' body, slicing through the flesh bit by bit, revealing the scarlet filth inside.

"I cut open his stomach and tried to get back what was taken away - like this."

The silver-red long knife cut open the internal organs inch by inch according to Xiu's words.

"I found the small intestine first, and then followed it to the stomach - unlike you, the man's stomach was as large as his body size."

The cold tip of the knife stirred inside his body. Harpas looked at the narrow demonic eyes of the man above him and felt unspeakable fear for the first time.

"I looked very carefully, but because of a small mistake I failed in the end."

Blood splashed onto Xiu's face and slid down stickily. He watched the demon under his feet turn into runes and disappear, sighing meaninglessly.

“What a pity.”

Mor watched all this, he knew it was not normal, but he had no intention of stopping it. For him, all he had to do was protect Hilda's descendants. The black dragon spread its wings and released Du Ze and the others. As soon as Du Ze came out, he saw Xiu standing next to the magic teleportation array, blood flowing down the silver-red long sword and dripping onto the ground. The cracked stone ground showed how fierce the battle just now was.

"Everything's alright, right?"

Xiu put away Qianbian, and took Du Ze who came over into his arms, and answered nonchalantly: "It's okay, he seems to be restricted by the divine tower."

Du Ze understood immediately. The God Tower is a screening machine, claiming that it can make all living beings become gods. It is absolutely impossible to let some living beings who have just reached the realm of false gods or have not yet become false gods fight against gods, which will lead to annihilation. Therefore, it is understandable that the God Tower restricts Harpas and others. In this case, the boss of the Demon God Arena, Baal, will not use the power of the main god to fight against them. But in fact, this is not the key, Du Ze thought, just like facing Belyar, the biggest difficulty is not force, but emotion.

The 38th demon has been solved, and the next level is the 37th Arena, where they also met a demon: Phoenix. After passing Harpas, they are not sure what attitude this conscious demon will have towards them. Therefore, everyone decided to take a break and recuperate before going to the next level.

During the break, Du Ze watched Xiu tossing and turning his left hand, with a puzzled look in his head. After playing Harpas, Xiu became extremely concerned about his left hand. There were several times when Du Ze felt that Xiu stared at his left hand as if he wanted to swallow it.

Are you dissatisfied with my left hand?

Just when Du Ze couldn't help but ask, something strange happened in the arena for the first time. A small magic circle suddenly appeared, and the figure inside gradually appeared. When the newcomer stepped out of the magic circle, both parties were stunned - it was someone they knew.

The God of War was stunned for a moment when he saw Du Ze and his group, but he quickly reacted and glanced around. When he saw the magic teleportation array formed by Harpas, the God of War completely ignored Du Ze and his group, and rushed directly to the magic teleportation array cast by Jin Xiu. All this happened in the blink of an eye. Before Du Ze could come to his senses, he saw the teleportation array received the God of War, and then dispersed into runes and disappeared into the air, leaving nothing behind.

After realizing what happened, Du Ze choked with blood and wanted desperately to go to the place where the teleportation disappeared and knock on the door: Open the door, God of War, if you have the ability to snatch the teleportation, do you have the ability to open the door!

Everyone looked at the magic teleportation array and the place where the God of War disappeared in silence. Verla asked worriedly: "The teleportation array leading to the next arena has disappeared. What should we do?"

"Ms. Heidi said that only one climber can pass a level, and the level will be reset after passing it." Alice held her sister's hand comfortingly. "If nothing unexpected happens, we may have to face the demon god Harpas again."

As soon as Alice finished her words, a black dove appeared in the sky above the arena. Du Ze saw Harpas above him widen his eyes slightly, and a trace of emotion flashed in his blood-red eyes. Was that... fear?

Harpas suddenly spread his wings, and just as everyone was about to take a alert stance, they saw a large black dove killing them with its black feathers.

Everyone: …

Du Ze was silent for a long time, then looked at Xiu: "What happened?"

——What did you do just now to make that demon so scared? !

"Who knows?" Xiu leaned against Du Ze and said lazily.

The strong sixth sense told Du Ze not to know too much, so the silly reader attributed all the unreasonable phenomena to Xiu's protagonist halo. Because of Harpas's "consideration", they soon got the teleportation array to the next level again. Even though it didn't take much effort, Du Ze was furious. This time it was some silly guy who dragged Xiu into the teleportation array - if they hurried, they might be able to see the jerk who grabbed the level in the 37th Arena.

The teleportation array dutifully transported everyone to Arena 37. To Du Ze's disappointment, the arena was empty and there was no sign of the God of War. Du Ze felt something was wrong. Even if it was the God of War, it would be impossible for him to finish the battle so quickly against a conscious demon.

"Someone's here again so soon?"

A child-like voice came, and Phoenix showed up. Seeing that the other party had no hostility, Xiu lowered his magic knife and asked, "Did the God of War pass by here just now?"

"Yes, I let him go - I can let you go too." Phoenix said: "I don't like fighting. Death is not something unbearable for me. I am already familiar with or accustomed to the taste of death."

Du Ze didn't expect to meet a demon god as easy to talk to as Phoenix. This level is a blessing for all tower climbers. At this time, Phoenix turned his eyes and stared at the fluffy ball on his head. The little phoenix seemed to recognize that this was the demon god who could turn into a phoenix. He stared with his round black eyes and shouted happily: "Jiubi~"

"It's been a long time since I saw a young phoenix." Phoenix sighed, "The phoenix and I have some origins. As a descendant of Baal, this is a small gift from me to you."

Under everyone's gaze, Phoenix transformed into a beautiful phoenix. The phoenix was on fire all over, as if it was burning with its body as the center, and its body became smaller and smaller. At the end of the burning, the bright red flame suddenly exploded, forming the rune of the teleportation array, and a piece of red crystal was left where Phoenix was originally.

As soon as the little phoenix saw the crystal, her eyes widened, just like a drunkard smelling the aroma of wine, rushing towards the red crystal with the momentum of a hungry tiger pouncing on food, and swallowing it in the blink of an eye. The rich fire element condensed into a flame entity that wrapped the little phoenix. The little phoenix seemed to feel very comfortable and made a long cry. The cry changed from childish to clear and finally like a flute. When all the flames dissipated, what appeared in front of Du Ze was an extremely delicate fire phoenix, dragging long and colorful tail feathers, and faint fire was flowing on the wings.

The Fire Phoenix flew up lightly, and it flew above Du Ze, as if it wanted to nest on Du Ze's head like before, but its current size no longer allowed it to do so. So the Fire Phoenix landed on Du Ze's shoulder, squatting there aggrievedly.

…Well, no matter how pretty she becomes, she’s still a silly and cute creature at heart.

After the interlude of the Fire Phoenix, the group continued to move forward. From the 36th Demon God onwards, it was the Sword Saint. If Old John went alone, it would take a day to deal with a Demon God. In order to save time, Moore started to fight. It took them three days to go from the 36th Arena to the 19th Arena. The remaining 18 Demon Gods were all above the Martial God. If Xiu did not take action, it would basically take three days to pass through an arena.

By the time the second demon fell in front of them, they had been in the demon arena for nearly a week. These days, they had been eating, sleeping, and fighting without a break. Du Ze and Xiu stood in front of the magic teleportation array. They only had the last arena left. If they went any further, they would face the first demon.

Du Ze looked at Xiu subconsciously. In the Demon God Arena, he wanted to ask Xiu several times, but when he was about to speak, he found that he didn't know what to say. Xiu noticed Du Ze's gaze, he reached out and pulled Du Ze, and walked into the magic transmission array without hesitation.

Du Ze stared at Xiu holding his hand. That hand was slender and strong, revealing an unquestionable strength and determination.

This man will keep moving forward, and no one can stop him.

The group passed through the teleportation array and arrived at the last arena. Before they completely walked out of the teleportation array, they saw a figure falling heavily in front of them. It was the God of War. At this time, the God of War no longer looked high-spirited. The whole person seemed to be burned by high temperatures, and many parts of him melted and rotted. It was obvious that he was exhaling more than inhaling.

Across from them, the First Demon God slowly lowered his hand, and the sound echoed in the arena like thunder.

"Welcome to my arena."

Barr said.
