“If you don’t get rid of the gem demon spirit in your body, your energy can only be supplied to it, making it constantly stronger, but it will be difficult for you to advance to higher levels. Even if you are lucky enough to be promoted to D-level now, it will become increasingly difficult in the future. You may even be backlashed by the gem demon spirit after it grows up.” The Great King said thoughtfully.

"Does the king have any solution?" Li Xiu asked.

"You are my little brother. How can I watch you being possessed by a mere gem demon? I have a secret method that can help you get rid of it." The voice of the peerless king sounded in Li Xiu's mind: "Remember not to spread this secret method to others, otherwise you will be killed. Even if others don't kill you, I will take your life. Don't let anyone know even a word of it."

After listening to the secret method of the Great King, Li Xiu left the underground world with a strange look on his face.

Although the Great King did not tell him what the secret method he taught him was, Li Xiu had vaguely guessed that it might be the art of cultivating spirits, or it might be a branch of the art of cultivating spirits.

First, Li Xiu had to find a clean gem. There couldn’t be any spirit in the gem, not even a hint of spiritual energy.

Then he used the method that Gai Shi Da Wang taught to Li Xiu to plant souls. While planting souls, he also had to carry out work similar to "fetal education" on the planted souls.

In this way, after the magic spirit seed in the gem is successfully grown, even if there is no contract yet, it will be able to communicate with the owner and will not harm the owner.

Then he would keep raising it, and when it became stronger than the gem spirit that Li Xiu ate, he would swallow the gem and kill the gem spirit with his own.

King Gai Shi told Li Xiu that when using this method, he must remember not to make a contract first. He must wait until it kills the gem demon in its stomach before he can make a contract with it, otherwise all his efforts will be wasted.

Although Li Xiu remembered this method, he did not intend to actually do it, because the soul planting technique was too cruel and he could never do such a thing.

However, the spirit-cultivating technique of the Great King gave Li Xiu some guesses.

Not everyone can be used to cultivate spirits. According to the description of the Great King Gai Shi, people who can cultivate spirits will have very strong spiritual awareness. Isn't this what he is talking about the magic armor master?

The Great King had no idea how many years he had been trapped, and he seemed unaware of the existence of human magic armor masters. However, the people he described as being able to cultivate spirits were undoubtedly magic armor masters.

"So, if you think about it this way, those gem spirits were all people with the talent of magic outfitters in the past. It was only because of some coincidences that they naturally completed the soul cultivation technique and became spirits..." Li Xiu felt a chill down his spine just thinking about it. If he died in the future, he would rather die completely than become a gem spirit.

Although the problem was not solved, the Great King did give Li Xiu some new ideas.

"The young demon spirit and the ruby ​​demon spirit have already formed a situation of fighting each other in my body. All I need is a bait, and maybe I can reap the benefits." Li Xiu has gained inspiration from the spirit planting technique and has roughly thought of a method, but he needs to consider it more carefully.

The Demon Spirit Arena is being built day by day and has entered the final stage. There are not many days left until the Demon Spirit Competition.

Some contestants who had registered for the competition had already arrived in the City of Light. At the same time, some people who wanted to watch the competition had come to the City of Light in advance. Although there were not many humans and they were all from nearby cities, it was enough to make people feel gratified.

Li Xiu originally thought that this first Magic Spirit Competition might not have many spectators.

The Black Death Demon Lord was promoted to level B, and even awakened a new talent skill "King's Pardon".

After using the King's Absolution, the shackles on the hands and feet of the Black Death Lord and his Black Death Legion will automatically open and fall off. After being freed, the Black Death Lord and his Black Death Legion will have a higher level of combat effectiveness.

And just as Li Xiu had guessed before, the B-level Black Death Legion skill can summon forty B-level Brilliant Black Death Demons.

"The monster created by the non-lethal bullet is really powerful. How strong can an S-level monster be?" Li Xiu was getting more and more excited. He kept feeding it every day, hoping that the Black Death Demon King could be promoted to A-level before the Monster Competition.

"God appears again." The bandit came to Li Xiu with his cell phone and showed Li Xiu a piece of news.

The news reported that a God wearing a Red Flower Demon Costume killed an S-level demon spirit at the border between Space City and the Southern Cross Federation. There was also a video in the news.

Li Xiu couldn't help but frown after seeing it. He was sure that the man who had pretended to be God was dead.

But in the video, the person controlling the Honghualang magic suit can actually use the Hand of God and the Wings of Angel.

"Strange!" Although Li Xiu did not think that the Hand of God and the Wings of Angel were any amazing skills, he had indeed never seen any other magician learn them easily before.

Especially the Hand of God. Apart from Bai Qiuyi who learned the Hand of God with his help, Li Xiu had never seen another one.

Even though Ye Xiyuan has such a great talent and has been taught by Li Xiu, he has not yet fully mastered the Hand of God.

"Where did Guan Jinghao find these magic costume masters?" Li Xiu couldn't help but frown.

"Is this God the one you are looking for?" Li Xiu looked up at A Fei and asked.

"I don't know. I think they look similar just by looking at their appearance. But the fake God looked very similar to me too. Only when you get close to him can you tell they are not the same. Although their temperament and some of their movements are very similar, I can be sure that they are not the same person." said Ah Fei.

"Let's raise our level first. Since there is such a person, we will be able to find him out sooner or later. What is the quality of your embryo?" Li Xiu said.

"It's 1.7 already. With a few more A-level or higher attribute rewards, it should be able to be promoted to D-level." Ah Fei replied.

Ah Fei's promotion speed is obviously much faster than Li Xiu's. Even though she has never drunk the Magic Wine, she is already close to D level.

Li Xiu was a little helpless. There were too many vampires on his body and he had to get rid of them quickly.

"The City of Light is quite presentable." Bai Ying and Li Qingyi walked side by side on the streets of the City of Light. Bai Ying looked around and said with blinking eyes.

The two people walking together attracted a lot of people's attention.

One is tall and sexy, the other is pure and cute. Even the old man selling things on the street couldn't help but take a few more glances at them.

"There's still more than a week before the competition starts. Why do you have to come here so early?" Li Qingyi asked puzzled.

"I'm bored at home anyway, so why not take a walk around first? I heard that the Brave Trial Field in the City of Light is quite interesting. We can change the environment and practice while having fun." Bai Ying said with a smile.

"That's fine." Li Qingyi nodded. If Bai Ying hadn't pulled her out, she would rather stay at home and continue to enter the trial field.

"Let's go to the jewelry store first." Bai Ying had already found out the location of the Jewel Street, so she took Li Qingyi and left.

The two of them walked around the gem street and were both very disappointed. There were no gems here that they could appreciate.

"The City of Light is at this level, and it's still holding a Magic Spirit Competition. I guess it has no future." Bai Ying said with a pout.

"Although the current environment and strength of the City of Light are indeed not very good, it can be seen that the Lord of the City of Light is a person with great ambitions." Li Qingyi said.

"How did you know that? Why didn't I notice it?" Bai Ying asked puzzledly.

"The location of Gem Street is right next to the Magic Spirit Arena, and there is a new street under construction there. Judging from the layout of the buildings, they are probably shops, hotels and entertainment venues. The Lord of the City of Light is not just planning to host a Magic Spirit Competition, I'm afraid he has long-term plans." Li Qingyi explained.

"It's a good idea, but it's hard to say whether it can be realized. Maybe this magic spirit competition won't make any waves at all." Bai Ying smiled and said, "There's nothing to see here, let's go to the trial field."

Li Qingyi nodded, and the two of them headed towards the trial gate.

They had learned before they came that anyone could enter the Brave Trial Field in the City of Light. As long as they paid a small entrance fee, which was not much, they could enter and exit freely.

Of course, you still need to produce the gems to open the door of trial yourself.

The two people came to the Trial Gate and found it quite lively here. Outside the Trial Gate, there was actually a fairly formal market, but there were not many people setting up stalls.

"What a mess this is, letting people set up stalls in front of the Trial Gate." Bai Ying frowned.

Li Qingyi strolled around with great interest, and said to Bai Ying with some joy: "Now I am becoming more and more curious about this Lord of the City of Light. This kind of trial gate is what I want to see. It should be a place that ordinary people can access, and it should not be a privilege for a certain group of people."

Bai Ying was somewhat speechless: "Don't you think this is a bit like a vegetable market? The social status of trial-takers is not as high as that of magic costume masters. With what he did, trial-takers will become even more common."

Li Qingyi smiled and said nothing. After buying the ticket and entering, she saw that some people were forming teams outside the trial gate.

Because to open the trial gate once, at least a dozen black crystals are needed, which is indispensable.

If only one or two people enter the door, it would be a bit of a waste for ordinary people, so usually ten people will form a team to enter the door, and everyone will share the cost of opening the door.

People in a place like the City of Light have never seen such beauties. When they saw the two beauties, Li Qingyi and Bai Ying, coming over, many trial participants' eyes lit up. Some trial participants had already taken the initiative to come over and invite them to form a team, and some even invited them to join the team for free.

Li Qingyi and Bai Ying politely declined, and the two of them opened the trial door alone.

"One is sexy, the other is cute, it's really hard to choose!"

"Of course I have to choose sexy. Cuteness is worthless in front of sexiness."

"I think the cute one is also good. The little bird-like one is also very good."

"Survey data shows that men who like petite women are generally not in good health..."

The trial participants murmured in private, everyone knows that people love beauty, which man doesn’t like to look at beautiful women?

Li Qingyi and Bai Ying were randomly placed in a dark maze of difficulty level B. The two seemed to be able to see in the dark and were not nervous at all. They chatted as they walked.

In the maze, they encountered a tiger, but Li Qingyi slapped the tiger so hard that all its bones were broken and it died instantly. Its body was so soft that it seemed as if there was flesh wrapped under its fur.

If those trial-takers just now had seen this palm strike, they would probably have to think carefully about whether their lives would be safe enough if they really married her and a conflict arose.

"I'm lucky. I got an admission ticket randomly." Bai Ying said with a smile when he saw that there was an admission ticket among his rewards.

"Let's go in and take a look." Li Qingyi took out a trial badge and went in with Bai Ying.

On the stone table, there was a black umbrella. Chu Jun had obtained this umbrella before. Bai Ying picked up the black umbrella with one hand. It looked very easy, just like taking an ordinary umbrella.

"It's just an ordinary shining contract." Bai Ying put it behind him casually, and then he and Li Qingyi followed the Longevity Lamp into the Black Death City.

"Someone is already here!" Two people appeared at the crossroads of the Black Death City and found the ground littered with the decomposing corpses of the Black Death Demons. They couldn't help but frown slightly.

They looked around and didn't see anyone. They saw that the city gate in one direction was open. The two looked at each other and Bai Ying said, "We are not familiar with the situation in this trial site. Why don't we go over there first?"

"Okay." Li Qingyi nodded, and the two of them walked towards the open city gate.

Outside the city gate was a desert that stretched as far as the eye could see. A man wearing a white tights, a red belt around his waist and sunglasses on his face was lying on the sand in the distance with his butt sticking out, his ears pressed against the yellow sand, as if listening to something.

On the sand next to the man was a dark green gentleman's hat. Under the red sunset, its shadow was very long.

The scene looked a bit strange. Li Qingyi and Bai Ying both looked a little weird. They wondered what the trial-taker was doing.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Bai Ying asked curiously as he walked over.

The man didn't say anything, but just put his index finger on his lips as a gesture of silence.

Although Li Qingyi and Bai Ying were not very old, they had been to many trial sites. They were not the kind of newbies who knew nothing. After seeing the man's gesture, they immediately shut their mouths and even slowed down their pace.

They looked around vigilantly and approached the man tiptoe.

They all had the ability to detect, but they didn't notice anything wrong nearby, nor did they realize there was anything under the sand.

The two people came to the man's side, but still found nothing. However, they did not speak. Instead, they imitated the man and lay on the sand to listen.

They had seen evil spirits hiding underground before, but after listening for a long time, they didn't hear any movement.

The man didn't say anything, and they didn't know what to say either. They could only look at him, secretly wondering what he had heard.

After a long while, the man's ears finally left the ground. He patted the sand off his face and body, and looked at Li Qingyi and Bai Ying.

The man was naturally Li Xiu, and his eyes were immediately attracted to Li Qingyi.

I have to admit that cuteness is indeed easily overlooked in the face of sexiness, not to mention that Li Qingyi's face is also very attractive to men.

In addition to their figures and looks, what also attracted Li Xiu's attention was the clothes they were wearing.

Both girls were wearing matching sets of clothes and shoes.

One is a cyan suit and the other is a white suit. The designs of the clothes are somewhat strange and do not look like modern clothes.

In addition, they all carry swords with sheaths on their backs, which makes them look like female swordsmen.

It’s just that the sparkling jewel rings on the fingers are so dazzling that one feels dizzy, and instantly adds a sense of wealth to the fairy air.

In fact, being able to wear such a set of clothes, these two girls are undoubtedly not ordinary trial-takers, and can be called wealthy ladies among the trial-takers.

Li Xiu's outfit was not much different from a half-naked beggar in front of others. Only the ring on his finger allowed him to barely match the other person in terms of his wealthy temperament.

"What were you listening to just now?" Bai Ying asked.

"I didn't hear anything." Li Xiu shook his head.

"Then what are you doing lying on the ground?" Bai Ying asked in confusion.

"I just want to take a look at the Black Death City from that angle." Li Xiu said with a smile.

Li Qingyi and Bai Ying suddenly felt speechless. After all this time, this guy was left alone with nothing to do.

"I didn't expect to see two fairies coming towards me. I thought I was seeing things just now." Li Xiu continued with a smile.

"Although you are a bit boring, you are an honest man who speaks the truth." Bai Ying smiled and said, "Are you from the City of Light? Are you familiar with the City of Black Death? Take us around, it will be good for you."

"I'm afraid that won't work. I have other things to do." Li Xiu shook his head.

"What's the matter? Do you want to lie here and watch the Black Death City?" Bai Ying didn't expect Li Xiu to refuse, and said after a moment of pause.

"Yes." Li Xiu nodded.

"Then you continue to watch, we won't disturb you." Since he was rejected, Bai Ying didn't force it. It would be the same with or without someone leading the way.

"If you want to take a walk, you can go out and have a look at the city gates opposite and on the left, but don't go to the gate on the right," Li Xiu reminded.

"Why?" Li Qingyi asked.

"No one has opened the door on the right before. We don't know what's outside. We can only hear the sound of ghosts crying. It must be very dangerous." Li Xiu explained.

"Thank you." Li Qingyi thanked him and walked back with Bai Ying.

They had been to many trial sites and knew that they couldn't wander around in the desert. It would be terrible if they got lost. Besides, they had to participate in the Magic Spirit Competition and didn't want to waste too much time here.

"What a strange person." Bai Ying muttered softly as he walked.

Li Qingyi glanced at the gate of Black Death City, seeming to be thinking about something.

Watching the two girls walk back into the city, Li Xiu lay on the ground again and looked in the direction of the Black Death City.

He was lucky enough to get the admission ticket this time. After clearing out all the demons that could be killed, he was unwilling to go back just like that, so he opened the city gate on the desert side to see if he could find something.

As a result, he actually made a new discovery. Looking at the Black Death City from here, the Black Death City looks a little different.
