Chapter 15: A Belated Crisis
The Shadow Scythe Demon was still wandering, and the uneasiness in its heart finally made it give up the idea of moving forward, but the psychedelic effect of the phantom array was still there, and it would take a little time for it to get out of the slightly distorted sense.
It is still looking for the best way out of the army, and those demons who are still advancing don't care about it, and the demons who have broken away from the "flail" have almost nothing to do with the group.
The Shadow Scythe, which was wandering, was suddenly stunned, and something seemed to attract it in the air. In an instant, the Shadow Scythe's eyes turned a hideous blood-red, and a circle of black runes spun rapidly outside its pupils. There was a bloodthirsty look on his still immature face.
In terms of bloodline, the breath of the Shadow Killing Scythe Demon that far surpassed the surrounding demons was revealed. "Woooooooo
"Woo" The Shadow Scythe Demon closed his eyes and began to sense the faint fluctuations in the air, he had not felt this way since he was born, this feeling of wanting to tear something apart was like instinct, and an indescribable bloodthirsty feeling filled the Shadow Scythe Demon's heart.
I feel it, this strange fluctuation in the air, the fluctuation that comes from a distance like a ripple is the source of stimulation, this is ...... The runic power of humanity!
After sensing this undetectable rune fluctuation, the shadow scythe's pupils shrank sharply, if it was still a guess before, then now it is almost 100% certain, this scent must be a trap. A trap that can put the demon who comes to you to death......
But what about the traps? The Shadow Scythe knew only one thing now - the human who emitted the fluctuations was dead. Whatever the purpose, kill him yourself.
The Shadow Scythe regained its composure, closed its eyes and intently sensed the source of the fluctuations, and then quietly walked in one direction.
It was already a super difficult task to transform the Guardian Array into its current form, and the mayor's ability was not enough to refine this transformation to only part of it, so now the entire town was in a state of being defenseless against the demon Luo who had not yet reached the young beast level.
Relying on the rippling fluctuations in the air, the Shadow Scythe Demon ignored the effects of the Mercury Phantom Array and skillfully concealed its form in the fog. The talent engraved in his bones makes it the most terrifying killer in the fog.
A line of paw prints gradually approached a small mountain.

"Snort" The heat released by Fang Zhongyan's Red Flame Phoenix Nest scorched the surrounding fog, leaving a blank space that was getting bigger and bigger, and Ye Feng was not so bored on the mountain alone. From his point of view, he could just see the large array of cages reserved for the rare demon cubs.
The large array was carved into the rock wall, and hundreds of runes that flashed with various colors of light swam, forming a thin cyan light curtain, which did not look too strong. But it was this light curtain that seemed to break with a single stab, but it trapped nearly a hundred demons of different shapes. There seemed to be an invisible pressure within the range of the light curtain, and all the demons within this range were so weak that they couldn't even move their fingers. Excellent varieties that are rarely seen in normal times are now flooded.
And the rest were slaughtered without exception. In addition to the scattered mist in the air, there was also a lot of dirty steam, Fang Zhongyan's Red Flame Phoenix Nest vaporized all the eliminated ones, otherwise, there would be a mountain of corpses and bones here. But even so, the demon Luo continued to run from a distance, and was lured to rush towards Taniguchi.
"Hmm, is there a problem with Sanhua?" An Yue had already told Ye Feng about the mission and purpose of this time before leaving. Of course, because of the rush of time, she didn't have time to elaborate, but according to the existing knowledge and observation, Ye Feng also guessed that it was not far from ten.
Think about the sentence that Fang Zhongyan has been saying for the past few days: "You are blessed today." "And I connected to the Demon Walker Trial that was going to be held in the town.
For a demon walker, the demon flesh and blood fused with the initial trial almost determined whether the path of future development would be long or short. And for a group of children who are about to become Demon Walkers, there is no better gift than a high-level Demon Luo cub.
Although the higher the demon Luo is, the more difficult it is to hunt, as long as the trial is successful, it means a brilliant future. Moreover, although Fang Zhongyan usually intimidated the children, saying how dangerous the trial of the demon walker was, Ye Feng, as his adopted son, knew that the so-called trial was not difficult at all.
Just like after the college entrance examination, you will find that the difficulty of the college entrance examination questions is not as high as usual. The trial is also a truth, the usual intimidation is just to let the children have the pressure to exercise, and the real trial is not to let a teenage child rush up with an iron sword to fight hand-to-hand with the demon cub as Fang Zhongyan said.
The real trials are issued with specialized alchemy weapons, which include primary weapons such as swords and psionic suits for automatic defense, as well as alchemy pistols that use blunt gold as bullets. In the face of the demon cubs who don't know the magic power yet, it is really easy for the fully equipped humans to achieve victory.
The reason why the children are not told the truth is that they hope that they will overcome their fear of the demon on their own. The day-to-day intimidation is sown in the children's hearts about the demon luo, and then after the first killing of the demon luo, the person who has overcome the fear naturally has the courage to be fearless.
The previous fear will turn to caution, and the warriors will be trained to give their all in the face of any enemy for the rest of their lives. Only such a warrior can defeat the demon Luo.
As for those who can't overcome their fears...... Demon Walkers are the sword and shield that protects humanity, and there is never a need for cowards in this team!
As for the daily training before the trial, it was the foundation for becoming a demon walker to better control the weapons transformed by the innate runes.
Thinking that many older children had complained that this year's training tasks were much heavier than in previous years (the Demon Walker's Trials were held every year, but only children who the instructors thought met the standards could participate), Ye Feng couldn't help but feel relieved, for them, this hunt in the town was simply paving the way. The training was made more difficult because the adults in the town knew that these children were destined to go further than their parents.
"This method can only be used once, and it seems that we are really lucky. Ye Feng was a little excited, but he still didn't understand why Ye Lan Town had been established for more than four hundred years, why he hadn't used this method until now, and this method of blessing future generations should be used as soon as possible.
What he didn't know was that this method was not originally available in Ye Lanzhen, but was brought by Fang Zhongyan. Fang Zhongyan was not a native of Ye Lan Town, he had only moved to this town seven years ago for some reason. Not only that, in order to engrave the formation, including the Fountain of Life, the mayor of the town almost exhausted Ye Lan Town's savings for a hundred years before they could barely make the plan succeed......
However, Ye Feng only thought about it for a moment, and then his attention was attracted by those demons imprisoned in the rune array. For him, these demons are equal to the power of the future. power, that's what interests him.
"Moon Blue Wolf, an ice-based high-level demon beast, has a certain chance to open the madness attribute after fusion, this is good. Ye Feng sat on a stone, shook his two calves and said, "However, the Tielu monitor lizard is not bad, the whole body steel price is too handsome." He shook his head excitedly, watching these demon stalls that in previous years only the most promising new stars in town could choose to pour out, not to mention how happy he was.
He is almost completely immersed in his own world. Never thought of myself as being alone in the wild now. But don't blame him, Sanhua kept pouring out of the valley, and those demons rushed in with red eyes, and no one paid attention to him under the effect of the phantom array, which was also one of the reasons why An Yue was relieved that he was alone on the battlefield.
Ye Feng picked and chose with the demon luo below, but what he kept thinking about was Fang Zhongyan's class.
"Teacher, do you know what kind of demon Luo is the most powerful?" asked one student.
"Stupid, of course it's the 'Thor' Lan Qingcang's fused Lan Chen Long, that's the demon of the royal family," the other students replied in a hurry.
"No, it's not right, it's the lava beast of 'Hell Flame' Lin Yanbin"
"It's still the Canglin pit viper that is more powerful!"
"That's not right!"
Fang Zhongyan watched the students' discussion and smiled silently. Ye Feng also held a small brain melon and listened carefully.
After they all quieted down, Fang Zhongyan cleared his throat and said: "Actually, what you said is not wrong, under normal circumstances, it is indeed the upper class that is more dominant, and the gap between the royal family and ordinary demon Luo is even more difficult to make up, but it does not mean that as long as it is fused with a high-level demon Luo, its strength must far surpass others." β
"When you really choose the demon Luo for fusion, you have to look at the fit, and if the fit is not good, even the demon Luo flesh and blood of the royal family will only become an obstacle on your way. β
"Of course, a person will fit with a lot of demons of a certain kind, and on the basis of fit, naturally the more noble the bloodline, the better. β
"Then how can you tell what kind of demon Luo you are compatible with?" Ye Feng asked.
Fang Zhongyan smiled, a mysterious light flashed in his pupils, and he said slowly: "It's very simple, the more you fit the demon Luo, the more it wants to kill you......"
"So, among you, who wants to kill me......" Ye Feng, who was sitting on the cliff, muttered, unaware that in the grove behind him, a pair of pupils that were slightly blue in the green under the cover of the canopy slowly contracted......
