Chapter 16 Fighting Demon

Lyu Liang won, and smoothly entered the second test. Those disciples who had watched the battle before saw Lu Liang enter the crowd on the right, and they all shook their heads helplessly.

Lyu Liang didn’t care about how he won. Spending more than 3,000 lower grade Primordial Stone to buy a low-key pass, very good! After the trials, everyone would probably be scattered. At that time, even if he exposed some strength, it would not cause too much trouble.

“Oh, what an interesting kid, not willing to accept any surrender. Didn’t you see his eye expression in a flash? It’s surely not the same as his stupid look!” Xuan Nyu Fairy was still smiling at the girl in red.

“Master, master, I want to beg the martial uncle of Sword Character to put me into the trial field, can’t I? I, I really want to observe him again, and I want to put an end to my Taoist Heart, to break it completely!” The girl in red looked at Xuan Nyu Fairy with pleading eyes.

“Beg? Why do you need to beg him? He has to send you in person! Let me say it!” Xuan Nyu Fairy did not have any intention of being polite and immediately began to send a message to the founding father of Sword Character by using sound transmission.

The founding father of Sword Character was slightly stunned at first, then smiled and shook his head, but finally nodded. The girl in red was happy upon his approval but then immediately warned herself: I am delighted because I could determine the cause and effect, but not because I wanted to follow him!

After a number of hours, all the trials ended, and a total of more than 10,000 people entered the second test.

At this point, the Hunyuan Sword Immortal made his move. He waved his sleeves, and more than 10,000 people disappeared. When they reappeared, it was already within a spacious tone hall. To the north of the stone hall, there was a hole with a height of about 32 feet, and there seemed to be a water pattern floating on it. It looked like the entrance of the Virtual Land that Lyu Liang saw in the past.

“That heaven abode was originally a place where the Demon Clan tribes gathered. Later, they were personally collected by my ancestors into my immortal palace. They are used to train the junior disciples of the next generation. The originally high-leveled demons have died out. For now, there are only demon beasts of the Qi Refining Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage. These beasts and my immortal palace have an agreement at first. As long as you do not enter their territory to provoke them intentionally, they will not be proactive to attack you,” said Hunyuan Sword Immortal, who was rarely responsible for the explanation. “Here is a map with various symbols on it, which ones you can go, and which ones you can’t. Think about it by yourself.”

“In addition, this time, the top ten people who have obtained the most nameplates can become disciples of the Immortal Palace. However, a new assessment method has been added. Demons have reached the Peak of the Little Demon Level, which is equivalent to the Peak of the Qi Refining Level. Their bodies begin to condense the Demon Cores. Anyone who can obtain the Demon cores, according to the level of it, can exchange it for tens to hundreds of nameplates.” As soon as these words came out from Hunyuan Sword Immortal, many people’s eyes brightened in the crowd.

“What you need to pay attention to is that there are no restrictions in the test field and no life or death matters. If anyone wants to give up, just throw all the nameplates out, and they will be automatically sent back here. OK, the trial field’s maps are for you, get familiar with it first.” Hunyuan Sword Immortal moved his hand, and Lyu Liang suddenly felt that there was a map in his sea of consciousness. At the same time, some places on the map were marked with different colors.

Lyu Liang scrutinized it and found that the boundaries of the trial field were actually expansive. Those places marked with colors also had simple annotations. Overall, the color was divided into three types, red, yellow and green. Among them, the green places represented gathering spots for demons in the Middle-stage and Late-stage Little Demon Level, and two-thirds of the locations on the map were green. The yellow places represented gathering spots for demons at the Peak of Little Demon Level, and it occupied the vast majority on the map. There were only two places in red, and the level of the demons was not written on it. Only four words were written: Sealed Forbidden Ground.

“Well, you have gotten your maps. When you are ready, you will enter the hole in sequence. You will be sent to a random location for a month, and once the time is up, you will be automatically sent back.”

One by one, people began to walk into the cave, and Lyu Liang followed the majority and slowly entered. After an hour, the testers were gone completely, and the bustling hall became quiet. Except for Hunyuan Sword Immortal still standing outside the cave, there was no one in the stone hall.

After a while, lights flashed, and three figures appeared in the stone hall. They were the two big Almighty Immortals and the girl in red.

“Is everybody in? This is the first time that the Demon Core is included in the assessment criteria, isn’t it? Are those monsters properly restricted?” After all, this was the first time to change the selection criteria, and the founding father of Sword Character was very concerned about it.

“Master, please rest assured, Junior Brother Zhenyuan had sealed the two most dangerous places. Not to mention this group of cultivators at the Qi Refining Level, even the existence of Fairy Immortal cannot enter,” Hunyuan Sword Immortal replied respectfully.

“The land which is marked with red. What is the problem?” Xuan Nyu Fairy was still very curious, and even the girl in red on the side also listened carefully.

“Martial Uncle, there is a demon at the Peak of the Great Demon Level in each of the two places. They are quiet and honest usually. This trial, in order to prevent someone from entering, Immortal Zhenyuan who is good at formation skills set up the sealing formation.” Hunyuan Sword Immortal explained.

“They are all at Peak stage? Why don’t you kill them? Do you still want to let them continue to grow?” The Xuan Nyu Fairy did not seem to understand.

“Oh, Sister, you don’t know about it. The Immortal Palace made a vow with the demon here. As long as the demon has not reached the Demon Spirit Stage, and everything is in order, we will not bother them. When they reach the Demon Spirit stage, they can choose to be contracted servants of the inner disciples in the Palace for a thousand years. Until the disciples are dead or the time expires, then the demons will be free to self. If they don’t obey the rule, they will be killed killing.” The founding father of Sword Character smiled, then changed his words. “Ying’er, do you want to enter now?”

“Martial Uncle, thanks for fulfilling my wish!” The girl in red bowed in appreciation.

The founding father of Sword Character turned his palm, and a golden Talisman appeared. Later, after the Talisman was attached to the girl in the red, it disappeared. “This is a Divine Hiding Talisman that can help you to hide your aura. After you go in, remember not to interfere with others’ trials.” Then he reached out a finger, and the girl in red disappeared.

“I just sent your precious disciple to the vicinity of Lyu Liang according to your instruction. It is estimated that they will meet in two days. As you said, Lyu Liang is indeed an unpredictable junior. It’s interesting that when I asked Little Tian, it only told me that the little boy was pure-minded, and then he ignored me. Oh, this is really interesting!” The founding father of Sword Character nodded with a smile.

“Although it is weird, I also believe that he should have no evil intention. Ying’er had the same feeling too, so she just wanted to confirm it. I will wait and see what happens!” Xuan Nyu Fairy nodded slightly.

Subsequently, the three figures disappeared.

At this time, on the trial field, Lyu Liang was looking at a spot on the map marked with yellow. After a moment, his eyes became firm, “It is him, snatching the nameplate has the danger of exposing my strength, so it is better to fight with the demon beasts.”

After making up his mind, Lyu Liang flew in. Flying and flying, Lyu Liang eyes brightened. “Red Body-refining Fruit! And there are five! What a bargain!” Lyu Liang was ecstatic. He originally planned only to kill the demon beast. However, fate had brought him something else. The Red Body-refining Fruit was a great complement to the body refining, and it would help him to reach the fourth level faster in association with the Devil Reshaping Technique.

Lyu Liang stopped moving and landed in front of the Red Body-refining Fruit. He waved his hand and took five fruits into his bag. When he was about to continue to fly to find the demon beast, an angry voice sounded. “Kid! I am going to kill you! That is my fruit!” Then, a tall black shadow pounced on him.

“Well? It looked like the big bear on the third floor of the Training Tower! But two times smaller. Is it equivalent to the Peak of Qi Refining Stage? Let’s try it!” Lyu Liang instantly saw the opponent. It was 22 feet tall, yellow-haired big bear.

“Liang, Do it fast! In case there are other cultivators coming over.” Black reminded him in the sea of consciousness.

Lyu Liang’s eyes turned cold, and in a flash, the expression of smirking and silly could no longer be seen. An aura of merciless killing was born. He always remembered that phrase Senior Feiwu had taught him in the past, “Once you take your treasures out, kill with all your might.” So, in the meantime, he held the God Whipping Whip in his left hand while holding the sword Feiling in the right one. Wind-dodging Move and the Heart Sword style were released at the same time. Immortal Beating Whip was shooted directly towards the big yellow bear.

Initially, the yellow-haired big bear could avoid the whip, but he was too confident about his physical intensity.

At this moment, the big bear only wanted to slap Lyu Liang to death. As for the swords and magic treasures, he simply did not look at it. But now, Lyu Liang’s eyes were flashing, because he knew that the bear would be dead!

In the month before attending the disciple fair of Sword Character Immortal Palace, Lyu Liang was getting familiar with the militant tactics of the Peak of the Qi Refining Stage in the inn. Also, he unexpectedly realized a method to hide the power of his moves. One day, while he was running Xuanyuan Mantra, he suddenly had an innovative idea: Since the mantra could be used to hide the cultivation, and the mantra triggered my swordsmanship, could my sword moves’ power be hidden too?

Under this thought, Lyu Liang tried it and surprisingly found that his idea was feasible. At the same time as the sword move was sent, the aura was concealed, and when the sword hit the enemy, the concealed power burst. What made Lyu Liang even more excited was that the power of the outbreak was completely the strength of the Early-stage of Foundation Establishment. But his cultivation was still kept at the Peak of the Qi Refining Stage. The advantage of this was people would be under the impression that his swordsmanship was so brilliant that it was difficult to infer his actual level of cultivation.

The moment the God Whipping Whip hit the big bear, the big bear suddenly felt the shudder of its demon soul which unconsciously stopped the flow of the demon power. It suddenly felt that something went terribly wrong. Although this feeling only lasted in a breath, when it wanted to hide, the two sword light came from the top of the head and the sides of its body! By the time they reached in front of the bear, the original powerless sword move suddenly burst out an astonishing sword light.

“No! You are Foundation…” The words were not finished, and the yellow-haired big bear was disintegrated. Even its demon soul was shattered directly. Only a round Demon Core, under the deliberate protection by Lyu Liang, was not harmed at all.

After collecting the Demon Core, Lyu Liang was even happy by the bit. A complicated look was shown in his eyes. He shook his head and sighed slightly.

“Liang, there should be the abode of the bear demon in the vicinity, look for it. At this moment, there should be no owner, and you can plunder it.” Black reminded him promptly.

“That makes sense!” Lyu Liang nodded. “Having the old in my family is like owning a treasure. Black, you’ve lived long and is able to think more comprehensively.”

Sure enough, after flying for the time of drinking a cup of tea, an abode came into sight. Not even a ban was seen, it could be imagined that the bear demon was really mad at the time.

The abode was not big. Just as soon as he entered, Lyu Liang was delighted. At a glance, he saw a plate in the stone table in the house. There were three round balls on the plate. Those were no other than the Demon Cores!

“Oh, you are lucky, there are three Demon Cores at the Peak of the Little Demon Level, and it takes no effort for you to get.” Even Black exclaimed about Lyu Liang’s fortune.

After taking the Demon Cores, and after a little while, Lyu Liang had already searched the abode. There was only a storage bag except for the Demon Cores. Opening the storage bag, Lyu Liang grinned uncontrollably. There were six fruits and a medicinal pill. The fruit was the Red Body-refining Fruit, and the medicinal pill was the real reason for Lyu Liang’s happiness. It was the famous medicinal pill specifically used to break the bottleneck of the cultivation, the Bottleneck-breaking Pill!

In the Virtual Land, Lyu Liang actually wanted to refine it. But when he looked at the refining conditions, he immediately gave up. Not to mention anything else, just one term, only Late-stage Gold Core cultivators could refine it! Unexpectedly, this Peak Qi Refining bear demon actually had this kind of precious medicinal pill. What a pleasant surprise!

Just when Lyu Liang was still immersed in joy, Black’s voice rang in his sea of consciousness, “Liang, be cautious, cultivators are coming over, and there are two!”
