Fairy, Maybe Ease Up on the Ancient Anecdotes. I'm Worried I Won't Live Long Enough to Hear Them All
"A teleportation talisman can be used like this?!" The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain were dumbfounded when they saw Silver Ring Heavenly King Earthworm being forcibly teleported away.
The despair in the eyes of the Silver Ring King Worm is particularly memorable.
It's easy to guess what would happen to this Nascent Soul Realm demon.
The Demon Suppression Pass has set a rule: anyone below the Body Integration Realm who approaches the Demon Suppression Pass will die. Even a powerful Nascent Soul Realm demon, though formidable, will face certain death if they actually confront the colossal Demon Suppression Pass.
"Huh? Isn't this the obvious way to use it?" Lu Yang was surprised. He thought only Demon Beast were slow-witted, but he couldn't believe that even the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain, who were also human, couldn't think of this.
Look at Meng Jingzhou, he can think of it right away.
"Are there so many Golden Core and Nascent Soul Realm Demon Beast in the dense Golden Core?" Lu Yang thought about what they had encountered in the past few days. Not to mention those that deliberately came to their door, they had encountered quite a few of those roaming demonic Demon Beast, all of them Golden Core stage.
Tonight was even more outrageous; even Nascent Soul Realm Demon Beast came over.
Fortunately, Meng Jingzhou had a teleportation talisman that sent the Silver Ring Heavenly King Earthworm to the Demon Suppression Pass; otherwise, Lu Yang would have had to use his senior sister's Imitation Fist technique.
The hook-nosed leader shook his head. "How could that be? The majority of those active in this dense forest, whether human or Demon Race, are at the Foundation Establishment Realm. If it were really like now, with several Golden Core stage Demon Beast attacking one at a time, no one would dare to come here anymore."
Lu Yang thought about it and realized it made sense. It was Demon Beast's bad luck to encounter them; if it were any other Foundation Establishment Realm, they would have been dead long ago.
"It must be because the two young heroes killed too many Demon Beasts, and their scent has attracted the attention of the Demon Beast," the hook-nosed leader analyzed.
He sighed inwardly. The five of them, all at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, struggled to defeat Demon Beast of the same level. But the two young heroes killed early and mid-stage Golden Core cultivators as easily as slicing vegetables.
The gap is huge.
"I suggest we wait until tomorrow morning, when the city gates open, to return to the city, rest properly, change our clothes, and wash away the smell."
Lu Yang nodded. The hook-nosed leader's suggestion made sense. These past few days, the seven of them had been on edge, either fighting or on their way to fight. The mental burden was too great.
Although his mental strength far surpasses that of others of the same level, he shouldn't be exhausted so quickly. While Meng Jingzhou and the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain feel tired, he doesn't.
But since there's an Immortal Fairy causing trouble in his mental space every day, Lu Yang needs to allocate some of his mental energy to deal with her and, incidentally, listen to some High Antiquity tales and strange stories.
High Antiquity tales include, but are not limited to, the rivalry between the dragon and phoenix clans over a beautiful woman.
When the palace caught fire, the immortal Qilin fled to another land to escape the calamity, and was given the nickname "Fire Qilin".
Ying Tianxian urged everyone to refrain from taking action in the future and to enhance their status as immortals.
The Time Immortal, who ate the Immortal Immortal's food, felt that each day was like a year. He then grasped the theory of relativity and strongly supported the idea of having the Immortal Immortal cook for the other three as well.
The Nine Immortals published academic papers to prove that they were the first immortals and presided over archaeological excavations to prove their legitimacy.
To be honest, these are all High Antiquity tales related to immortals, and they are incredibly valuable; they could fetch astronomical prices at auctions.
If you were to tell this to those old scholars who study High Antiquity history, they would probably be so excited that they couldn't sleep. The amount of information contained in it is so great that it is enough to overturn people's current impressions of High Antiquity times.
But for Lu Yang, the worst fear was that he would wake up to find the Four Immortals of High Antiquity standing beside him, looking down at him with a sinister smile, saying, "You know too much. Die."
He doesn't possess the immortal Dao fruit.
Optimistically speaking, by the time the senior sister arrives, she'll still be able to collect his body.
Lu Yang confided his worries to the Immortal Fairy, who remained as carefree as ever. "Oh dear, Ying Tianxian and the others are all good people, very easy to talk to. They wouldn't treat you like this. Look at me, even though I know so much, I'm still alive and well, aren't I?"
Lu Yang silently looked at the immortal fairy in her soul form, wanting to remind her that she had been dead for over 300,000 years and had only been resurrected two months ago.
After several days of fighting, Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou have both significantly improved their combat experience and are becoming increasingly adept at using lethal attacks.
Their cultivation levels were also steadily improving, consolidating their Foundation Establishment Late Stage and slowly advancing towards the Golden Core stage.
"Why do I feel like you have more combat experience than me?" Meng Jingzhou in surprise, convinced that this wasn't just his imagination.
Lu Yang said expressionlessly, "You've been beaten by our senior brothers and sisters from night until morning, so your combat experience will also improve."
Lu Yang still remembers when he was being beaten, this bastard was clapping and cheering from below the stage.
Meng Jingzhou pondered, "It has this effect too?"
He was second to none throughout his life, and he could not afford to lose to Lu Yang in terms of combat experience.
The night of rest was not peaceful; a Golden Core stage Demon Beast still came to ambush them, but was killed by Meng Jingzhou, who was on night duty.
It was a rabbit the size of a domestic pig, with two large incisors three or four inches long, and bright red eyes like two rubies.
"Are we that hated? They won't even let us rest at night!" Meng Jingzhou angrily kicked the rabbit spirit. He had been distracted during the battle and the rabbit spirit had accidentally bitten his hair.
Fortunately, he had already refined his body to the point of refining his hair, which saved him from disaster.
The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain couldn't explain it either. After all, they were inexperienced and had never seen anyone kill Demon Beast so ruthlessly. "It really shouldn't be like this. Logically speaking, this is the outer edge of a dense forest, and there shouldn't be so many Golden Core stage Demon Beast here. It's not worth it for Golden Core stage Demon Beast to come here."
"Forget it, let's discuss this when we get back." Lu Yang called everyone to return to Zhenyao Pass to rest.
When the group returned to Zhenyao Pass, they overheard people talking at the city gate.
"Have you heard? Last night, a Nascent Soul Realm stage demon attacked the Demon Suppression Pass under the cover of darkness, but was slapped to death by a Spirit Transformation stage expert on night duty."
"Really? Is the Demon Beast drunk? How dare it launch a sneak attack at the Nascent Soul Realm?" his companion asked in surprise.
As one of the six major cities guarding the border of the demon realm, Zhenyao Pass is so formidable that it is impossible to breach it without the intervention of several Body Integration Realm.
However, there are precedents for this. A few powerful demons got drunk and went to the Demon Suppression Pass to test their courage. The lucky ones were driven away by the Demon Suppression Pass, while the unlucky ones ended up in a pot the next day and were feasted on by the whole city.
"Of course it's true! Didn't you notice there are more guards on the city today than yesterday? The higher-ups suspect the Demon Race is planning something big, so they sent a cannon fodder to test our defenses!"
"Are they going to fight again?"
"It's unlikely; it's probably just a test."
"There's also an unreliable rumor."
What is it?
"They say that the demonic Demon Beast was sent here using a teleportation talisman."
"Seriously? A teleportation talisman can be used like that?"
"That's why I said it's an unreliable rumor."
"So, can we have a good meal today?" The Demon Suppression Pass often distributed the meat of the Demon Beast killed at the city gate to everyone.
I doubt it.
"Why?"
"It was a dead earthworm spirit, how could you eat it?"
Within the spiritual space, the Immortal Fairy asked in surprise, "Hey, don't you eat earthworms here?"
"... Fairy, would you like to hear what you're saying?"
