Everything around Wuzhu Lake is a 'divine domain', and the Evil Pond is also among them.

Although the god of the guardian is dead, emotions still affect the earth, and cold and heat are impermanent.

When Lin Shouxi fell alone among a strange rock, the wind that was still hot suddenly became cold, the silver-gray light swallowed over, and the snow drifted with the wind, slicing over his head.

After entering the gate, the four teenagers obeyed the words of Deputy Courtyard Sun, parted ways, and killed demons respectively.

Xiao He and Lin Shouxi said goodbye seriously, and agreed to wait for the depths, and when no one found out, the two could move closer to the north together and get together secretly.

Lin Shouxi agreed.

He walked on the snowy rocky road, and countless vegetation with spikes emerged from the cracks, blocking the road like a net.

Lin Shouxi pulled out the Shen Qing Sword and split these black thorns.

Since that night when the blood demon suddenly became difficult, the sword fell silent, and the fierce light on the blade had thinned a lot.

After crossing several thorn bushes, Lin Shouxi followed a stone path to the ruins of an ancient building.

Surrounded by stinking swamps, the occasional sturdy piece of land stood with several mottled stone pillars that had long since been known.

On the stone pillar, Lin Shouxi saw the first demon turbidity.

It was an ugly, mud-made monster with a pointed head, a dead baby-like body with numerous folds, and a soft-brimmed turtle shell on its back, and a gray letter as long and branched as its tail.

It looked at Lin Shouxi, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

Lin Shouxi's injuries healed early, but the Demon Killing Courtyard was full of peeping eyes, and he never had a good opportunity to test his realm.

The pure true qi in the spiritual veins surged, and in the center of the veins, the strange black qi pill began to reverse, and the stored true qi gushed out, surging all over the body.

This is an ancient relic that is full of evil, but he has a sense of openness in the world.

The ugly monster with the shell of the turtle screamed, and its limbs bounced like green tiles from the stone pillar.

Lin Shouxi drew his sword.

The blade cross-cuts at high speed.

The monster's screaming came to an abrupt halt, and it was flattened in half, with something the size of a projectile shattered in between, sucked in by the jade plaque around its waist, and the remaining remnants flew into the swamp and merged with the silt.

Lin Shouxi looked at the monster's corpse, then at the sword in his hand, and frowned.

It's not because the monster is about to collapse at the touch of a button, but because the speed at which he unleashes his sword is beyond his expectations.

"My sword...... How did it get so fast? Lin Shouxi was puzzled.

He felt that he was very strong now, even stronger than when he fought Mu Shijing on the night of the rainstorm.

In fact, this was his premonition, but when everything came into practice, he still had a feeling of unreality.

A conjecture suddenly arose in Lin Shouxi's heart.

In order to verify this conjecture, he hurried forward with his sword in hand, searching for more and more powerful demons in the realm of the evil pool.

The demon turbidity is the resentment of the sealed monster.

They first condensed a cruel consciousness, and then built their bodies out of silt, stones, and weeds.

If they have enough time, they may be able to turn into powerful youkai, but the Demon Slayer never gives them that time. They are like wild weeds that grow wildly, harvested over and over again, and although their vitality is tenacious, they have never been able to achieve momentum.

Beyond this ancient ruin, Lin Shouxi's figure jumped like a projectile, the sword was swung out in his hand, flickering into a few flashes of sword, under the sword, the demonic and turbid things died at the touch of a touch, and they disintegrated one after another.

Lin Shouxi jumped onto the top of the ruined wall in a few flashes.

There was light snow in the sky.

He tightened his clothes and looked forward.

In front of this swamp forest is a fractured lonely gorge, and a waterfall of silt condensed from the high gorge like a poisonous dragon, exuding a strong fishy smell. Below the canyon was a white mist, and the snow drifted away and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Lin Shouxi glanced back, then stepped forward with his sword, jumped down the jagged rock wall, and came all the way to the bottom of the gorge.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, the demon turbidity surged around, like a toad pouring out of the nest, Lin Shouxi swept his sword, like a long whip, and the toad-like demon turbidity shattered into an inky rain before it could roar.

Not only did he draw his sword faster, but his body was also much lighter.

Even if it was a thrilling leap between steep cliffs, he felt like a fish in water.

Lin Shouxi stood like a snow leopard on a cliff rock, and in the deep pool with poisonous miasma below, a hairless and scaleless demon crawled out, it was like a larger bat, walking with two wings, and its face was like a sharp and thin mouse.

This demon is much stronger than the previous one.

It lifted its leaning neck and roared into the air.

The roar stopped abruptly.

Lin Shouxi spun down with his sword and cut off its head with a sword, which was still easy.

The black jade plaque on his waist absorbed it and turned white.

Moving forward along the low canyon, Lin Shouxi cut off a lot of demons and evils.

The conjecture in his mind became real:

Many years ago, Master said to Him, "Where we can go is never up to us, but on this piece of heaven." The sky is above, and it has already drawn an insurmountable boundary for the world. ”

Today, Lin Shouxi understands this passage more profoundly.

In the past world, he and Mu Shijing were top masters, just because the sky in that world was only so high, and all the cultivators were pressed by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

But the world is different.

This world is more like the birthplace of all laws, its sky is high and infinite, and the restraint on cultivators is minimal.

The burden on his shoulders is gone, the chains wrapped around his feet are lifted, and of course he will be stronger than before.

This strength gives him a sense of security.

It's a pity that he can't measure himself by the realm ruler of this world for the time being.

But it didn't matter, the black qi pill had helped him a lot, and it was still silently telling itself that 'you are special'.

The high cliffs on both sides converged towards the middle, narrowing and narrowing, and the snowy sky above was squeezed into a line, and the exit of the canyon was only large enough for one person to pass.

Leaving this deep gorge, you are greeted by a large iron forest.

Lin Shouxi walked into the forest and killed a lot of pythons with his hands.

He had been walking in the Evil Pool for almost an hour, and the evil things he encountered could not stop his sword, but for some reason, the deeper he walked into the Evil Pool, the more uneasy he felt in his heart, as if something terrible was being bred, and he was getting closer and closer to it.

He was a little distraught.

Eventually, this wisp of restlessness turned into a looming cry.

Lin Shouxi heard a cry coming from ahead.

Following the cry, Lin Shouxi came to a stone cave under the cliff.

The low cave was pitch black, and there were a few drops of blood in the doorway that had not yet congealed, and the cry came from inside.

Lin Shouxi bent down and walked into the cave.

At the end of the cavern, a thin boy in gray clothes curled up in a corner, holding a sword, his eyes wide open in horror, and his face trembling with tears.

As Lin Shouxi approached, the little boy sensed his arrival.

"Who?!"

He was stunned, raised his head, and his pupils, which were already the size of mung beans, shrank again, "You...... Is it a human or a ghost? ”

"I'm human." Lin Shouxi replied.

The little boy looked at him for a moment with his mouth half-open, and after a moment asked uncertainly, "Lin ...... Are you Lin Shouxi? ”

"It's me."

In just three days, Lin Shouxi was already a well-known existence in the Demon Killing Courtyard.

"What about Xiao He? What about Miss Xiaohe? Is she with you? The little boy hurriedly asked.

"We weren't together, Vice President Sun asked us to go our separate ways." Lin Shouxi said.

The little boy immediately showed a look of disappointment, "It's good that Miss Xiaohe is here, she is so powerful, she will definitely be able to defeat that monster's ......."

"Youkai?"

"That's right! Monster...... There's a monster in that forest! The little boy said incoherently, "I, my companion with me, did not escape, he ...... He should have been eaten by youkai......"

"Aren't the demons in the pool of evil not powerful?" Lin Shouxi asked, "Why aren't you opponents?" ”

"It's not a monster, it's a real monster!" The little boy said in a trembling voice: "There is a monster that escaped......"

Monster...... Lin Shouxi immediately understood that it should be a certain monster's seal that was loosened, allowing it to escape.

"Since there are youkai in that forest, why don't you run away?"

"Because youkai don't dare to come out of the woods! It chased me, and when it reached the mouth of the woods, it didn't chase me, and ......" the little boy trembled and lifted his trousers, "my legs are ......"

He rolled up his trousers, blood on the outside of his calf, flesh rolled up, and claw marks were visible.

Lin Shouxi frowned slightly, he squatted down and stretched out his hand.

"What are you going to do?" The little boy was startled, thinking that he was a monster and was going to kill himself.

Lin Shouxi's fingers stopped a foot in front of his calf, and then clicked a few times as fast as lightning, and the little boy screamed miserably, and asked in a sand voice, "What did you do to me?" ”

"If you can't stop the bleeding, you'll die." Lin Shouxi said.

The little boy looked at him fearfully, and after a while, he realized that the other party was really stopping the bleeding for himself, and his vigilance slowly relaxed, but the fear on his face never faded, and the nightmare of the monster's pursuit replayed in his mind.

"I'm going to die...... It won't let me go...... We're all going to die......"

The little boy looked up, tears streaming uncontrollably, "It said it would kill us all!" ”

"What kind of youkai is it?" Lin Shouxi continued to ask.

"It's a youkai...... It eats people and doesn't spit out bones...... No, no, he's not a monster either! ”

The little boy was startled, as if he remembered something, and suddenly shouted, "He's wearing the clothes of the Demon Killing Courtyard, he'...... He is a disciple of the Demon Slaying Academy! ”

"You read that right?" Lin Shouxi asked solemnly.

"You can't go wrong! I...... I didn't clear his face, but ......" he said couldn't go any longer, swallowing, "Anyway, anyway...... There's a youkai mixed in! ”

……

Ah Yue stood on a snow-covered lonely rock, with a bow and crossbow wrapped around his waist, a long sword on his back, and his eyes fell into the distance.

The card on his waist is still black.

Nearly two hours passed, and he didn't kill a single demon.

Because when it comes to performing killer missions, he likes to be distracted.

As soon as the gate was closed, he began to track Lin Shouxi, because he was afraid of startling the snake, he didn't get too close, but just followed the clues to chase him, looking for the best opportunity to kill him.

He's a patient killer.

And along the way, he also found that Lin Shouxi was not as simple as he originally thought.

It made him more careful.

With the Great Rite of Succession imminent, he must complete this assassination perfectly.

The wind was like a knife, the earth was engulfed in snow, and mist drifted out of the jungle ahead.

After waiting for about half an hour, Lin Shouxi finally appeared in his sight.

He was followed by a limping teenager.

Judging from the color of the clothes, it should be a disciple who has not yet condensed pills.

Did they meet by chance?

Ah Yue thought about it, and saw the young man showing Lin Shouxi the way, he pointed to the forest in front of him, and said something to Lin Shouxi.

Then, he saw Lin Shouxi walking into the forest.

Giant trees are towering.

Ah Yue narrowed his eyes.

The woods were the perfect assassination ground for him.

His figure leaped up and down into the snow, and the bird flew close to the snow and slid silently into the forest, leaving only a series of very shallow footprints.

Fog rose through the woods.
