Under a demon tree that was more than a hundred feet tall …
This demon tree was completely black, as if it was carved out of a large piece of demon stone. It was enshrouded in an extremely evil demonic aura.
Between the leaves and branches that almost covered the sky, there seemed to be countless ghosts hibernating, emitting a sinister and terrifying aura.
However …
"There is a little crystal light between the branches!" Xiao Han stood under the huge demon tree and looked up with his hand over his eyes.
"Maybe it's another crystal card!
Hehe … let's swallow this demon tree first! "
Boom ~ ~ ~ ~
The Demon Thearch's palm tattoo on Xiao Han's left arm burst out with a whirlpool-like suction force. The nebula changed, and demonic light filled the air …
Poof ~ ~ Poof ~ ~ Poof ~ ~
The huge demon tree that was more than a hundred feet tall was peeled off and turned into rays of demonic light that merged into the Demon Thearch's palm tattoo on Xiao Han's left arm.
In an instant, the huge tree turned into nothingness and was drunk by the Demon Thearch's palm.
The demon veins were continuously awakening!
It was as if it could not be stopped!
Whoosh ~ ~ ~
A crystal card fell from the air. Xiao Han seized the opportunity and caught it in his hand.
"Hahaha … the second crystal card!"
Xiao Han laughed and threw the crystal card to Huo Deng. "Senior Sister Huo, this is the clearance crystal card. Keep it well."
Huo Deng caught it and looked at Xiao Han with gratitude.
"Thank you, Junior Brother Xiao Han."
"Let's continue." Xiao Han was like a fish in water in this sea of demonic light.
Now, Xiao Han's left arm's palm tattoo had awakened a total of 423 demon veins!
Along the way, he had absorbed countless demon trees, demon flowers, demon herbs, and demon fruits.
It was a great supplement.
Xiao Han's mind was immersed in the tattoo on the Shifter Sovereign's palm. He saw that the 423 Shifter Veins were like spirit rivers and veins, surrounding the two Shifter Sovereign Crystals like stars and gems. The two Shifter Sovereign Crystals were shining brightly like stars and gems, floating with faint Shifter Race civilization and runes.
There were many demon veins on the Demon Thearch's palm. They were countless and densely packed like the capillaries in a human body.
That was the Great Demonic Emperor's palm. It was lost, refined by Xiao Han with the help of the demon egg.
This was a huge treasure. Once the demonic veins were fully opened, Xiao Han couldn't even imagine how terrifying the power of this palm would be. It was practically capable of destroying the heavens and exterminating the earth. A single palm strike could even pierce through the earth's crust!
"Wow … Boss Xiao, that head examiner really knows how to hide. He actually hid a crystal card between the leaves of a demon tree that is over a hundred feet tall. If it wasn't for Boss Xiao being able to absorb demon aura and demon plants, which greatly increased our visibility, we wouldn't have been able to see the crystal card at such a high place and would have missed it." Fatty Zhu sighed repeatedly.
"Alright, let's not talk too much. We are still missing three crystal cards. Let's keep looking." Xiao Han smiled.
The group continued onward.
"That's right. Boss Xiao, it's only been a few hours, but we've already found two crystal cards. The main reason is because Boss Xiao is too powerful. The Demonic Qi here can't restrain you at all.
The time it takes to find the crystal cards is a full three days. That … Boss Xiao, are you interested in obtaining the so-called most precious red card? "Fatty Zhu came over and asked Xiao Han with a fawning face.
"There's only one red card. It's extremely precious. It can be exchanged for rewards from the examiner. Moreover, it's helpful for the next round. I definitely want to get it!" Xiao Han said without a doubt.
"Xiao Han, those participants from the Demon Hero Region have threatened that they will not let anyone who dares to touch that red card. Those guys are fierce and overbearing. They are not to be trifled with. If you obtain the red card, it's tantamount to directly offending them." Shao Yunrong said with some worry.
"It's fine.
This Demon Hero Selection Competition is too difficult. Death is everywhere. No one knows what the next round is.
Since the red card can help me pass the next round, why shouldn't I take it?
It's tantamount to a life-saving trump card!
I'm not afraid of the participants from the Demon Hero Region.
They are strong, but I'm not a softie!
If we really fight, it's still unknown who will win! "Xiao Han's face was full of domineering.
At this moment …
"Help ~ ~ ~ ~ Help me … Is there anyone …" In front of them was a gray demonic aura. A pitiful female voice was transmitted, pleading.
"Who is it?" Fatty Zhu said loudly.
"I … I'm entangled by the demonic vines … Hurry and save me … I'm a participant from the Western Region … Help …" The female voice cried.
"Oh …" Fatty Zhu nodded slightly. "Boss Xiao, it's a participant from the Western Region. I'll go and take a look." After saying that, Fatty Zhu strode towards the voice.
The dormant demonic egg in Xiao Han's heart turned slightly.
He shouted to stop it.
"Fatty, wait a moment."
"Huh?" Fatty Zhu stopped in his tracks.
Xiao Han carefully walked forward. The Demon Emperor's palm tattoo on his left arm throbbed, continuously absorbing the demonic aura in front of him. The visibility gradually increased.
The line of sight in front of him was like seeing through the clouds …
Shockingly!
More than a meter away from Xiao Han, there was a deep hole in the ground. It was dozens of feet wide and bottomless!
On the other side of the deep pit, on top of a demon tree, a demon crow was perched on the treetops. As it flapped its wings, it emitted a female voice … "Save me … Quickly come and save me … Save me …" The voice was delicate and cute, delicate and pitiful, and vivid.
The demonic crow's sharp beak was stained with blood and some white viscous liquid that seemed to be brain matter …
"What?
It's actually … actually a demonic bird?
This … This … It actually wants to lure us over … This … "Fatty Zhu, Mo Qingtong, and the rest were so shocked that they could not close their mouths.
The demonic crow's cold demonic eyes swept across Xiao Han and the rest. Then, it flapped its wings and was about to fly away.
Whoosh ~ ~
Xiao Han slashed out a faint saber intent, cutting through the air and directly cutting the demonic crow into pieces.
"Everyone, back off!" In the next moment, Xiao Han suddenly shouted.
Fatty Zhu and the rest were about to cross the deep hole, but when they heard Xiao Han's shout, they immediately took a few steps back instinctively.
Sss ~ ~ ~
Shockingly!
A giant python directly jumped out of the deep hole!
This giant python was more than a hundred feet long and as thick as a water bucket. The snake scales all over its body flickered with a frightening demonic light. Its eyes were like two large lanterns, demonic and terrifying, and it also had an ancient and tragic aura!
Evil filled the sky!
This was an ancient python that had sucked the blood of a mutated Demon Emperor!
The demon blood had caused it to completely mutate!
And it had become even stronger and more brutal!
Boom ~ ~ ~ The snake's head moved, pressing down on Xiao Han like a mountain, toppling mountains and overturning seas. The snake's tongue swept out wildly!
Gusts of demonic wind rushed over, blowing Xiao Han's clothes upside down!
Xiao Han was fearless, and his aura suddenly rose from the ground!
Rising steadily!
The Son of Heaven's aura looked down on all living things!
With a punch, he ruled over the world!
The domineering Son of Heaven's True Qi was added to Xiao Han's punch, causing the air to surge and the space to crack inch by inch!
"Bang!"
The punch landed on the snake's abdomen, and the snake's scales exploded!
The demonic python let out a heart-wrenching scream, and its body twisted and trembled!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Xiao Han seized the opportunity and did not hesitate at all. His two fists were like a storm of violent punches!
Sometimes, he would use the Son of Heaven's Divine Fist to attack, and sometimes, he would use the pure strength of his flesh to attack. His entire body was shining with golden light, making him look like an ancient golden god, invincible and almost invincible!
The demonic python was tortured to death by Xiao Han, and the snake scales all over its body exploded inch by inch!
Just as the demonic python was on the verge of death, the Demon Emperor's palm tattoo on Xiao Han's left arm exploded with a suction force like a black hole!
"Hiss ~ ~ ~ ~" The demonic python let out a shocking wail, and its body twisted and turned into streams of pure demonic Qi, which merged into the Demon Emperor's palm tattoo on Xiao Han's left arm!
After ten breaths, the demonic python disappeared without a trace as if it had evaporated.
The Demon Emperor's palm tattoo on Xiao Han's left arm gorged again, and 500 demonic veins awakened!
"How nourishing!
These demonic beasts have the mutated Demon Emperor's blood in their bodies, and that is the best nourishment!
The Demon Emperor's palm tattoo is even more satisfying than eating ordinary Demon Generals!
After all, the bloodlines of ordinary Demon Soldiers and Demon Generals can never be compared to the mutated Demon Emperor's blood … "Xiao Han was overjoyed.
"How dangerous … There was actually such a demonic python in the cave. It was very difficult to defend against it when it was caught off guard. Fortunately, Xiao Han, you were able to predict it." Huo Da rushed up and said with concern, "Xiao Han, are you alright?"
"I'm fine. Let's go." After killing the demonic python, Xiao Han stepped over the deep pit.
Suddenly …
"Eh!
There's a crystal light shining at the bottom of the pit! "
When Mo Qingtong crossed the deep pit, her sharp eyes caught a crystal light from the corner of her eye. That was not a demonic light, but the luster of a Star Jade, which was very dazzling.
"Another crystal card!" Xiao Han laughed heartily.
"The third one!"
He activated the Spirit Turtle's Quintessential Qi, which transformed into a huge hand, and grabbed at the bottom of the pit. As expected, he grabbed a crystal card!
"Fatty, take it." Xiao Han tossed the crystal card to Fatty Zhu.
"Thank you for your care, Boss Xiao!"
Fatty Zhu took the crystal card with a silly smile and carefully placed it into his Zhen acupoint, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it away.
Everyone continued to move forward.
"Brother Xiao, it seems that you're coveting that red card." Mo Qingtong observed. "I feel that you don't care about ordinary crystal cards at all. Once you find one, you give it to us without hesitation."
"Heh … I've said before, I really want the red card." Xiao Han smiled.
One had to know that Xiao Han had activated the Demon Emperor's palm tattoo on his left arm to absorb all kinds of demons in this so-called Demon Emperor's territory, continuously awakening his Demon Meridians. Furthermore, the demonic aura here no longer posed any hindrance to him. This made Xiao Han like a tiger in the forest, a dragon returning to the sea. This was his home ground. In such an environment, it was only right for him to fight for the red card!
If he did not fight for it now, when would he?
…
Everyone went around a col, and a Demon Forest appeared not far in front of them.
"The demonic aura here is getting thicker and thicker … Brother Xiao, it seems that we're getting closer to the two mutated Demon Emperors' corpses," Mo Qingtong said.
"Yes, the demonic aura makes people feel very oppressed." Shao Yunrong's face was slightly pale.
"Xiao Han, if you weren't beside us and absorbed a large portion of the demonic aura, I'm afraid we wouldn't have the confidence to continue moving forward."
"Don't worry."
Xiao Han stopped. "Let's keep moving forward … I also want to see what the two mutated Demon Emperors' corpses look like.
Heh … where would we get the chance to see mutated Demon Emperors' corpses normally?
Now that we have this chance, it's a good opportunity to broaden our horizons.
The demonic aura ahead is getting more and more violent. Under this kind of pressure, it will be easier to cultivate true qi, breakthrough, and explode acupoints.
Let's take this opportunity to cultivate our true qi. "
"Yes, there is only motivation when there is pressure. Boss Xiao, Fatty Zhu's 38th True Acupoint is loosening. It seems like it will break through at any time … Under normal circumstances, Fatty Zhu would need at least three months to break through the 38th True Acupoint. But now, in this Demon Emperor's Cave, using the demonic aura to refine my spirit, I can actually explode my acupoints very quickly … How satisfying!" Fatty Zhu laughed.
Mo Qingtong also smiled slightly.
"Qingtong is also breaking through her acupoints …"
"Since that's the case, let's try to enter the core area of the Demon Emperor's Cave and pay our respects to the mutated Demon Emperors' corpses.
Hahahaha … Let's go! "Xiao Han said in high spirits.
Everyone moved forward.
Suddenly!
Outside the dense forest in front, a young woman in white was lying on the ground, crying. Her face was delicate and her body's true qi was slightly fluctuating. Her figure was like a mountain range, disorderly and disorderly. Her hair was messy, and her clothes were tattered with many big holes, revealing her naked body. Half of it was exposed, and her buttocks were also at an angle that would cause people to daydream …
"There's a woman?" Fatty Zhu was stunned.
"Heh …" The dormant demonic egg in Xiao Han's heart started to turn slightly.
He signaled Fatty Zhu, Mo Qingtong, and the rest to stop.
"Everyone … I … I am a participant from the North Region. I … I got separated from my senior brother … and was … was humiliated by several participants from the East Region …" The woman in white complained as she was about to cry.
"Oh, is that so …" Xiao Han smiled and took a few more steps forward.
"Brother Xiao!
She has a faint demonic aura on her body! "Mo Qingtong suddenly reminded him.
The next moment …
"Roar!!!"
The woman in white let out a demonic roar. Her face instantly became demonic and ferocious as she suddenly pounced towards Xiao Han!
"Pu ~ ~ ~ ~"
A saber intent that could quench the void slashed out like an evil dragon, cutting the woman in white into two at the waist!
"This …" Shao Yunrong and Huo Da did not notice anything strange for a moment. They looked at each other in confusion.
Xiao Han walked over, squatted down gently, and gently swept away the woman in white's hair.
He saw that there was a terrifying hole in the back of her head, and her brain matter was completely sucked out!
"Ah!
It's indeed a demon! "Huo Da exclaimed when he saw this.
"This … In this hole, other than demon plants and demon beasts, there are also demons?
After the demons sucked the brains of the participants, they disguised themselves as the participants … This is extremely terrifying and impossible to guard against. "Shao Yunrong was also in shock.
"Our vital energy is unable to detect the demonic aura emitted by demonic beasts. However, I could sense traces of demonic aura emanating from these demonic beasts who had their brains sucked out." Mo Qingtong walked towards Xiao Han.
Shao Yunrong, Huo Da, and Fatty Zhu also walked towards Xiao Han.
"It must be some demon beast that sucked the brains of this female participant and disguised itself as her, obtaining her thoughts and memories.
The competition is getting crueler and crueler.
I'm afraid that many participants have already fallen. "Xiao Han said slowly.
"Junior Brother Xiao Han … We … Since we have already found three crystal cards, we still need two more. Let's hurry up and find them.
That red crystal card can only be found by chance … Let's just find five ordinary crystal cards and leave this place.
This place is too scary. So far, there are already participants whose brains have been taken over by the demon beasts … "Huo Da said in shock.
"Yes, let's act according to the situation." Xiao Han replied without giving any comment.
In the next moment, he was about to activate the Demon Sovereign's palm tattoo on his left arm to refine the demon corpse into pure demon light and absorb it.
However, at this moment …
"Boom!"
A burst of powerful true qi light blew away a cloud of gray demonic aura on the left side. A young man in a green robe slowly walked out. He was about twenty years old and had a mature and steady temperament. His eyes were very sharp, and his eyebrows were like swords. His eyes were filled with arrogance and conceit.
His body moved slightly, and his entire body emitted a huge aura. A true qi flood dragon appeared behind him. This flood dragon was more than twenty zhang long. When it coiled up, its pressure was vast and mighty, and it emitted an incomparably awe-inspiring aura.
It was as if he was a king.
There were 44 true qi acupoints on his body. They were shining brightly, indicating his extraordinary cultivation base of the fifth level of true qi.
"Oh?
How dare you! "The young man said coldly.
"You actually dared to kill my junior sister!
You really don't know the difference between life and death!
Which domain are you from?
What sect are you from? "
"She was not killed by us!
She was possessed by a demonic beast! "Shao Yunrong explained.
Xiao Han smiled faintly. "There is a hole on her head, and her brain matter is not leaking out. You can see for yourself. There is a black centipede in the hole on her head. It was a demonic beast, but it was killed by my blade energy."
"En …" The young man saw the hole on the woman's head and nodded slightly.
"She was indeed killed by a demonic beast.
Alright, this matter has nothing to do with you.
However, my junior sister's body was cut in half by your blade. This is simply a great crime!
You have three crystal cards?
Very good, hand over the crystal cards, and this matter can be written off.
Otherwise, I will let you die an ugly death!
You probably don't know my reputation in the Northern Region … "
"Hahahaha … Hahahaha …" Xiao Han suddenly laughed loudly and slowly stood up.
"You are f * cking courting death, do you know that?"
… …
"En … You actually found three crystal cards. Your luck is not bad … Oh, no, to be precise, it is my luck that is not bad."
The greyish demonic aura was blown away again, and a large group of men and women appeared.
Leading the group was Wanyan Gu and the bald Ada. Behind them were dozens of men and women from the Great Wilderness.
Their bodies were shining brightly and were extremely powerful. They could even use the pure strength of their bodies to force the demonic aura away.
Especially that Wanyan Gu. His eyes had turned pale gold, and there was a ferocious shadow of a six-armed dragon rolling in his eyes. It was frightening, and his evil aura was overflowing.
His body moved slightly, and it was like ten thousand horses galloping, emitting an aura that could destroy all obstacles.
This group of men and women from the Great Wilderness had been following Xiao Han's group from afar. They did not get too close until Xiao Han's group confronted the Northern Region participant 'Qiao Long' outside the Demon Forest. Then, they took the opportunity to rush over. Coincidentally, they heard that Xiao Han's group had obtained three crystal cards. Their greed was burning, and they could not help but show up, wanting to snatch the cards.
"En?" Qiao Long frowned and immediately said.
"My friends from the Great Wilderness, these guys have three crystal cards. How about this, I will only take one, and you can divide the remaining two.
What do you think?
Let's be friends.
I, Qiao Long, am also a genius in the Northern Region. My sect is powerful, and I am not a nobody. "
Wanyan Gu did not answer, and only laughed sinisterly. He looked at Xiao Han's group like a butcher looking at his own pigs and dogs.
"Hahahaha …" Xiao Han laughed again. He was very calm, so calm that it was terrifying.
"You actually started to divide our crystal cards … Interesting … Good, since you Great Wilderness barbarians are here, then I won't have to look for you … All of you must die!
Not even a chicken or dog will be left alive! "
… …
… …
… …
