Exile

"It seems that my two junior brothers have found cultivation uninteresting lately and lack the motivation to improve their cultivation level, which is why they are concerned about such trivial matters."

"In that case, why don't you two junior brothers go and train at the border between the Central Continent and the Demon Realm?"

"Senior Sister, this isn't quite right..."

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou tried to resist, but without saying a word, the senior sister grabbed one of them by the collar and tossed them aside like two little brats.

The two felt the scenery change in an instant, and they found themselves in the air, flying south at an extremely terrifying speed, or rather, being thrown south.

The surrounding scenery changed too quickly for the two to calculate their current speed. They only saw occasional flying boats passing by in a flash, or powerful figures flying by in a flash, leaving the passengers and powerful figures on the flying boats completely bewildered. They secretly wondered what level of cultivation these two figures had reached, that their flying speed was so astonishing.

Thump--

The two landed on their backs, heads down and feet kicking up the sky, entangled in vines.

"I feel like my body is falling apart." Lu Yang stood up, grimacing, his body aching as if it had been taken apart and then reassembled.

"Where is this?" Meng Jingzhou looked around. He saw that the area was densely forested, with many rare plants growing nearby, and it was unusually damp.

"Didn't our senior sister say that we should go to the border of the Demon Realm for training? This place is probably where the Demon Realm borders."

Lu Yang pointed out the local specialties around him. "Look, these are things that are rarely seen on the mainland. This is a money flower, this is a flowing cloud grass, this is a myriad green wood, and this is a snake demon whose cultivation level is unknown... Hmm?"

Several dark green snake demons with triangular heads appeared in their line of sight, hissing and flicking their tongues as they rapidly crawled towards them.

"Run!"

Unable to discern the snake demons' level of power, the two dared not be careless. They removed the vines, landed, somersaulted, and ran away.

These snake demons look formidable. I'm not afraid of the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, but I'm afraid they're not just at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

"Hey guys, don't run away! Come play with us girls!" The snake demon spoke in a seductive voice, her tone soft and alluring.

"Your little sister will definitely make you feel like you're in heaven!"

Come on, let's play!

The two turned around and found that the snake demons had transformed into human form. They were beautiful and pitiful, dressed in revealing clothes, and were clearly not from kind families.

"No, no, you're all too ugly," Meng Jingzhou politely declined.

Upon hearing this, the snake demons were stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage and ran faster and faster.

Fortunately, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were no pushovers either; when it came to escaping, they were second to none, and their legs moved incredibly fast.

Unfortunately, misfortune struck again; the two of them, without paying attention, fell into a swamp.

Seeing that the group of snake demons was about to catch up, Lu Yang said fiercely, "This won't do, let's use the Shrinking Earth technique to escape."

"And what about me?"

"Stand still, draw a dungeon!" Lu Yang quickly drew a circle around Meng Jingzhou, and before Meng Jingzhou could react, he appeared in the dungeon.

Lu Yang used his Shrinking Earth technique to push the dungeon and prisoner Meng Jingzhou away.

"These two Law Technique can be used together?"

The snake demons were stunned, not understanding what had just happened. When they spread their Divine Sense to search for the two, they had already run out of the range of their Divine Sense and could not be found.

"Are we that scary?" The snake demons looked at each other. They wanted to use their bodies to earn some Spirit Stone from the humans, but they didn't expect that the humans were all so determined that they ran away as soon as they saw them.

Even more outrageous, when they said they could play with the other person's body, the other person ran even faster.

They are the Azure Serpent clan, renowned for this kind of business back in the Demon Realm. Now, they want to expand their business among humans, but they haven't succeeded in making a single deal.

"Shouldn't we be applying to brothels in the human realm instead of coming here to have sex in the open? I've heard that many of our sisters are doing this," another sister asked.

"Didn't they say that humans also like to play in the wild? And they don't have to pay taxes in the wild."

"I don't understand."

On the other side, Lu Yang was still pushing Meng Jingzhou as fast as he could, his legs flailing about as nimbly as a fish.

"Is that about enough?"

They must have escaped.

The two men simultaneously emerged from the ground and saw the feet of a giant elephant stomping towards them. Behind the giant elephant was a herd of elephants with bloodshot eyes and tusks over three meters long; they looked like menacing creatures.

Lu Yang quickly pulled himself and Meng Jingzhou back into the ground.

The two peered out again and saw Demon Beast resembling both a tiger and a leopard lying on the corpse of the deer demon, feasting on it.

The two humans and the demon exchanged a glance, both stunned for a moment, then the Demon Beast roared, and the two once again burrowed underground to escape for their lives.

Finally, the two managed to crawl out of the ground, leaning on crutches, having apparently gone through some kind of setback.

"This isn't training, this is practically a trial by fire..."

Before he could utter the word "match," Lu Yang interrupted him.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is a trial given to us by our senior sister!" Lu Yang was even more vigilant than Meng Jingzhou, worried that his senior sister might have a way of seeing what was going on, and frantically gave Meng Jingzhou meaningful glances.

They were worried that Meng Jingzhou would anger the senior sister and cause the two of them even more torment.

Meng Jingzhou suddenly realized what he meant and quickly corrected himself. "They... discovered that our cultivation levels were unstable and made us fight here to seek a breakthrough!"

"Where are we going? We can't just stay here forever, can we?" Lu Yang walked with uneven steps, deeply feeling the difficulty of survival.

"Don't panic. Since this is the junction between the Central Continent and the Demon Realm, there must be large cities here! I heard from my family that the Great Xia Dynasty has established six cities here to guard against the Demon Race, and one of my uncles is stationed in one of them!"

"Hmm? What's that on your arm?" Lu Yang noticed a small black worm wriggling on Meng Jingzhou's arm, thick at the head and thin at the tail, wondering when it had crawled up there.

"It's a leech!" Meng Jingzhou was so frightened that he hurriedly shook his arm, but the leech seemed to be stuck to his arm and he couldn't shake it off no matter what he did.

"Don't panic, I heard this thing is afraid of fire, watch me burn it! Bah!" Lu Yang spat out Samadhi Fire, lightly brushed against the leech, and the leech was burned to death and released its grip, falling off his arm.

The two of them had kept their Divine Sense activated the whole time, but they were only on guard against large Demon Beast. They didn't expect that they had to be wary of even insects in this place.

The leeches wouldn't break through Meng Jingzhou's defenses, but Meng Jingzhou, having been pampered since childhood, was physiologically unaccustomed to them.

After seven times venturing into the dens of Demon Beast, five times being besieged by Demon Beast, four times being forced to fight Demon Beast, and once crawling out of the belly of Demon Beast, the two finally emerged from the dense forest and saw the city built by the human race.

The two were disheveled and limping, with saliva from the Demon Beast still clinging to their hair.

The three large characters "Zhenyao Pass" on the city gate tower shone brightly, radiating an inexplicable pressure that gave the two a strange sense of security.

"Thank goodness, Senior Sister! We're finally out!" The two clasped their hands together and thanked the heavens for sparing their lives.
