Jiang Yuening looked at him and laughed.
"What can I do if they want to kill you?"
She covered her mouth and chuckled. "Only the three seniors who entered the stone forest can see you like this. They are much stronger than me."
"Even so, you won't leave me in the lurch."
Kang Shin-mu said confidently.
"That's not necessarily true."
Jiang Yuening said meaningfully.
Kang Shin-mu glanced at her and didn't say anything.
In fact, the two were very familiar with each other. They were mostly joking. After experiencing so many battles in the depths of the stone forest, they were nervous. It was good to relax.
However, at this time, the two had almost reached the center of the stone forest.
There weren't any powerful monsters in the stone forest.
Even if the demonic aura invaded and infected all the monsters, it wouldn't affect them much. Now, Kang Shin-mu and Jiang Yuening's main goal was to find the source of the demonic aura and destroy it if possible.
The other three directions of the village were all deserts. To be honest, the possibility of the demonic aura coming from the desert was not high.
In that case, it was most likely hidden in this stone forest.
The two continued forward.
At this time, the situation was a little strange. The two continued forward for a long time, but they didn't see any demonic monsters.
Instead, many corpses appeared on the road they passed.
It seemed that someone had reached this place one step ahead of them.
"The three seniors are stronger than us. It's normal for them to be faster than us."
Jiang Yuening said after thinking for a while.
"Well, let's follow them."
Kang Shin-mu nodded.
Even if they were ahead of them, they couldn't just retreat or find another route. Because in front of them was the only way to the deepest part of the stone forest. If they didn't go through this route, they wouldn't be able to reach the center of the stone forest.
Therefore, the two could only follow this route. Some corpses of demonic monsters kept appearing in front of them.
The corpses of these demonic beasts had all had their demonic cores dug out.
It could be seen that the three Dragon Warriors who had arrived earlier than the two of them did not give up on anything that could possibly be of value. Even if it was a demonized Yao Dan, they still dug it all out. Maybe they could even sell it for some money?
This caused Kang Shin-mu's heart to ache.
To him, these were precious restorative items, as well as precious cultivation resources!
If it was given to someone else, they would not be able to unleash the full potential of these Demonized Yao Cores.
However, from this point, Kang Shin-mu saw a way to speed up his cultivation.
He did not have that much time to hunt demon beasts and obtain demon cores, nor did he have that much money to buy normal demon cores. However, this kind of demonized demon core, or some other special state demon core, was completely useless to ordinary Dragon Warriors, and the price was also very low.
If he wanted to buy this kind of demon core, Kang Shin-mu should be able to save a lot of money, right?
He just didn't know if this kind of Devil Qi was extremely rare or a frequent occurrence. In any case, in the Grand Prince's Palace, Kang Shin-mu had never heard of other demonic beasts being corroded by Devil Qi.
The two of them continued to advance along the path.
Along the way, there were more and more demon beast corpses.
To the three Dragon Warriors who were walking in front, these mere Fourth and Fifth Level demonized demon beasts were not worth mentioning at all. They could be easily dealt with.
Even Kang Shin-mu and Jiang Yuening could kill a Seventh Level demonized demon beast, not to mention the three Dragon Warriors who had become Dragon Warriors at least a year earlier than them. Their strength could not be that weak.
In a one-on-one fight, Kang Shin-mu and Jiang Yuening would not be a match for any of the three experts.
Only when the two of them joined forces could they have a chance to fight against them.
The two of them continued to advance.
But all of a sudden, an extremely dense wave of pitch-black Devil Qi surged toward them from the front. It was so dense that it covered the entire sky. It was as if dark clouds were pressing down on the city, and it was as if it was going to drown the entire stone forest!
This scene was extremely sudden.
Kang Shin-mu and Jiang Yuening did not expect such a situation to occur. It was impossible for them to escape at this time.
Almost in an instant, the two of them were completely enveloped by the thick Devil Qi that blotted out the sky. It was as if they had been sucked into a tornado, and this Devil Qi tornado was desperately trying to corrode the two of them!
Jiang Shenwu, on the other hand, was fine. After all, he already had a lot of Devil Qi in his body. To be honest, other than his consciousness, he could already be considered a "demonized" Dragon Martial Artist.
But Jiang Yuening could not.
In such a dense Devil Qi, she would soon be completely corroded by the Devil Qi!
Kang Shin-mu did not know what would happen to the Dragon Warriors if they were corroded by the Devil Qi. But in any case, he could not just watch Jiang Yuening be corroded by the Devil Qi just like that.
Previously, Kang Shin-mu knew that the Devouring Power could devour the power of Demon Cores and use it to heal others. It just needed to consume twice the power of the Demon Cores.
Now, in the face of this dense Devil Qi, could the Devouring Power still create a miracle?
"Relax your mind. I will help you devour all the invading Devil Qi!"
Kang Shin-mu hugged Jiang Yuening and said solemnly.
At this moment, the Devil Qi was rolling and the surroundings were pitch-black. As a girl, Jiang Yuening instinctively felt afraid. Needless to say, the surrounding Devil Qi was constantly corroding her body.
She felt much more at ease when she heard Kang Shin-mu's words.
In the next moment, just as Kang Shin-mu had said, she opened up her mind and allowed Kang Shin-mu's power to enter her body.
This was different from when Kang Shin-mu had healed her.
At that time, Kang Shin-mu had only devoured the power of the earth in the Demon Cores and sent it into her body. Naturally, he could heal her. What entered her body was only the power of the earth in the Demon Cores, so she did not feel anything special.
But now, it was Kang Shin-mu's talent that entered her body.
The Devouring Power.
It was a strange feeling.
After the Devouring Power entered her body, it flowed continuously in her meridians and blood. It devoured all the Devil Qi that had invaded her body and absorbed it into Kang Shin-mu's body.
He could withstand the Devil Qi.
During this process, Jiang Yuening indeed kept her mind and was not corroded by the Devil Qi.
The two of them stuck close to each other and retreated to the side. Then, they leaned against the back of a huge stone pillar to avoid being hit by something amidst the demonic aura. The demonic aura storm came too suddenly. In just an instant, only darkness was left in the eyes of the two of them.
This made Kang Shin-mu think of the other three Dragon Warriors of the Grand Lord Palace.
