Chapter 69: Fighting and Wei Mubai did not refuse, really...
Wei Mubai did not refuse. He waved his hand and more than a dozen demons rushed towards him.
Xu Hui: ...
He immediately swung his sword, and a dense sword net was formed, trapping all the demons in it. Then he swung his sword again, and the sword energy exploded, injuring all the demons.
These demons were even stronger than before, but with the coordination of her two moves, they were covered with countless small wounds.
The golden Buddha characters were penetrating every pore and soon penetrated into their bodies through the wounds.
The demons suddenly howled in pain, their demonic energy overflowed, and they eventually turned into larvae and disappeared.
"What is this?" It turns out that Lechen only needs to break through the defenses of the demons to make them directly return to their juvenile forms and become their original appearance. This method is really amazing.
"They will grow again and evolve more intelligence," Lechen smiled slightly.
Xu Hui was stunned. "Promoted to a high-level demon?"
The demons are divided into different levels not based on appearance or strength, but on their spiritual awareness.
High-level demons are no different from humans, possessing wisdom and reason, and thus forming families and forces, and going further.
The middle-level demons also have a certain level of intelligence, but they are always emotional, irritable, and influenced by greed. Their intelligence is far inferior to that of the high-level demons.
Not to mention the lower-level demons, they are only slightly better than monsters. Driven by their nature, they only have the instinct to seek good and avoid danger.
As the strength of demons at all levels increases, they do not generate more wisdom. In other words, it is extremely difficult to advance from a low-level to a medium-level demon. Unless they devour a spiritual treasure that can open up their intelligence, otherwise, it is basically like a dragon giving birth to a dragon and a phoenix giving birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son can dig holes. It is difficult to break through the bloodline constraints.
Therefore, in the eyes of human cultivators, the demons are all together.
But in the eyes of the higher-level demons, the middle-level demons are their slaves, not their own kind, and the lower-level demons are pure garbage, not even qualified to be enslaved. They are purely objects of hunting and are no different from monsters.
No, monsters are much more useful than them. Monster bones, monster blood, and monster flesh are all good things.
Therefore, the environment in the Demon Realm is extremely cruel and bloody, but also clearly divided into levels.
Lechen's move clearly gave those middle-level demons a glimmer of hope, allowing them the opportunity to be promoted, escape from their slave status, and have the possibility of moving up.
To save the devil, to save the devil, it turns out that I really am here to save the devil!
She actually thought Wei Chen was here to kill demons, and was still confused. Could it be that killing was his way? If so, then all Buddhists should be cruel.
It turns out that what the Buddha said about all beings being equal was not an empty statement!
For the demons and monsters, Buddhists are both their butcher knife and their only hope of survival, all depending on the opportunity.
For example, when they encountered Chen, all the low-level demons suffered, because he also felt that there was really no need for the low-level demons to continue to exist.
However, the middle-level demons can still be rescued and helped, and given a chance.
And this is his way to overcome the devil!
But... "If they become larvae, all their abilities will disappear, right? Can they still survive?"
In a place like the Demonic Sea Abyss, wouldn't those young ones become the best nutrients, being chased by monsters and demons, so how could they have any chance to survive and advance?
Liaochen blinked mysteriously, "That depends on their ability. I'm a monk, not their parents."
Xu Hui: ...
What an irresponsible monk! He just wants to save the people and call it a day, without caring about after-sales service at all!
"Miss Xu is truly kindhearted and full of sympathy towards the demons. No wonder Fellow Daoist Wei is worried that you're soft-hearted," Liaochen shook his head. "This isn't good, this isn't good. Not everyone in the world of cultivation is like you."
Xu Hui was furious, you violent monk, how dare you talk like that to me.
But she didn't say it out loud, because it was the truth. She was indeed worried about those young demons just now.
This is not an overflow of love, but the normal empathy that a normal person would have towards a cub.
Unfortunately, such empathy is too kind in this world of cultivation.
She was so kind that even the monks thought she was too merciful. It was really... weird.
"However," the monk changed the subject, glancing at a figure with his back to them, "Fellow Daoist Xu, this is very good, very good!"
If not, how could she be easily accepted by the Wei family and protected under their wings?
In other words, every sip and drink is determined by fate. You will reap what you sow.
The previous Miss Zhong was not a bad person, she was just not suitable for the Wei family.
"You're talking nonsense," Xu Hui turned around, not wanting to listen to his pretentious words, and shouted to Wei Mubai's back, "Come again!"
The sword formation combined with the sword explosion had incredible destructive power, but she didn't control it well enough, the noise was too loud, and too much energy was wasted.
If the demonic energy here had not been vaporized and inexhaustible, she would not have been able to achieve such an effect.
Therefore, improvements are still needed. First of all, we must make it silent and unreactive, leaving the enemy with no reaction, and speed up the formation so that it arrives in an instant.
Secondly, precise control is required to achieve maximum damage with minimal consumption!
Wei Mubai understood what she meant and immediately released another group of demons. This time, all of them were in the late foundation building stage and their strength was comparable to hers.
Xu Hui swung his sword and quickly took care of them, leaving them to Chen Duhua.
But it was not enough, far from enough. It took her five swords to complete the sword formation, and the sword explosion took six swords to break through the defense.
And just to break through their defenses, to truly defeat them, requires even greater power.
Now, because of Chen's presence, it is enough to destroy the defense.
But if she faced these demons alone, she could only be trapped for a while. After all, the demons had thick skin and flesh, and those minor injuries were nothing.
Xu Hui continued to practice while thinking, not caring about the power first, just making sure to trap them.
This is naturally not to make things easier for Liaochen, but to improve his own combat skills.
Finally, after repeated improvements, she finally achieved the following: One strike of the sword, the sword formation is complete! One strike of the sword, the defense is broken!
She was exhausted from the battle and had meditated more than a dozen times in the spiritual power conversion formation.
And they stayed here for more than ten days without changing their positions.
Xu Hui felt exhausted and dazed. She looked at Wei Mubai and Lechen again, who seemed relaxed and without a trace of fatigue.
She couldn't help but be curious. Wei Mubai had swung the sword countless times. Wouldn't his hands be sore?
Even if he could get a constant supply of demonic energy, each sword strike was so terrifying and consumed an astonishing amount of spiritual power. How could he recover so quickly?
As for Lechen, the spiritual power in his body seemed to be endless. It transformed into countless Buddhist characters, which spread out continuously, and he could also create a golden lotus that illuminates the world.
Just... a real perpetual motion machine?
Xu Hui couldn't envy him. At this moment, she just wanted to sleep. She made up her mind and fell on the magic sword, closing her eyes to rest.
Wei Mubai said nothing. He waved his hand and the surroundings instantly became quiet and the light dimmed.
She slept for a whole day and night. When she opened her eyes again, Wei Mubai and Lechen had actually stopped and were staying beside her, meditating silently.
"What's wrong?" Xu Hui asked in surprise. Could it be that he finally felt tired?
"Awake? Let's leave here," Wei Mubai said.
"Why?" Xu Hui hurriedly asked the reason. They didn't look tired.
"The monsters nearby have been eliminated. Brother Wei is good in every way except that he was too violent. He didn't leave any survivors," Lechen shook his head with pretended regret.
Xu Hui was so upset, how dare you say that to him, who is more violent?
Not wanting to bother with this shameless monk, Xu Hui looked at Wei Mubai and asked, "Where are we going?"
Wei Mubai lowered his head, "Down!"
Beneath their feet was a bottomless abyss. The deeper they went, the denser the demonic energy became, and naturally the monsters and demons became stronger.
Here, most of the monsters are in the Foundation Establishment stage, but it is not necessarily the case down there, as there are many in the Golden Core stage.
"Well, give me some monsters to practice with later," Xu Hui said after thinking for a while.
She has already achieved precise control of the sword formation and sword explosion. The next step is to increase the power. The more powerful the better. It would be best if she could kill a Jindan stage enemy with one blow!
Of course, she knew it was wishful thinking, but she had to work towards that goal, right?
Wei Mubai nodded in approval of her ambition and decided to carefully select an opponent for her.
The three of them stepped on the spirit swords and sank rapidly, and soon they came to a quiet place. Unlike the place above where there were many monsters, it was too quiet here!
When they reach the Jindan stage, the demons will have a strong sense of territory. They will mark out a piece of territory and will not allow other demons and monsters to approach. If anyone enters, they will fight.
As they broke in so blatantly, they were quickly sensed by several Jindan stage monsters, who rushed over at high speed and attacked them!
As several sharp and piercing whistles broke the eerie silence, several Jindan stage monsters of various shapes suddenly jumped out from the shadows around them.
They are surrounded by dark green or dark purple light, like ominous ghosts in the night.
These monsters have different shapes. Some are like giant beasts, covered with thick scales, and their eyes flash with bloodthirsty red light.
Some are extremely agile, with strong limbs and claws as sharp as blades. Although they have not completely lost their animal form, their heads are unusually developed and have a pair of sharp horns. They let out low growls from time to time, and their voices are full of threats and provocations.
The first to attack was a lizard-like monster. It opened its huge mouth full of sharp teeth and spewed out a cloud of black poisonous mist. The poisonous mist quickly spread in the air and attacked the three people with a breath of corrosiveness.
Immediately afterwards, another demon stomped its feet, and demonic energy instantly exploded, condensing into sharp stone pillars that broke through the ground and pierced the three people at astonishing speed. The most lethal creature was a demon fox that looked thin but had a cunning look in its eyes. It did not directly participate in the attack, but instead gently opened its mouth and emitted a strange sound wave.
This sound wave is not a simple sound, but contains a terrifying power that directly acts on the soul. It can cause hallucinations and even confuse thinking, making it impossible to guard against it.
"Boom!" However, the sound waves were blocked by the Buddha's light of the Golden Lotus, emitting a rich and lingering Buddhist sound.
"Squeak--" the demon fox screamed, and the piercing sound instantly penetrated the eardrums, causing them to become temporarily deaf.
It turns out that the real murderous intention was here. Due to their deafness, they reacted a beat slower and the attack came in an instant!
