Qin Huai would go back and forth to the martial arts hall, the inventory office, and the deep mountains on time every day.

The first is to gain the experience of Qi Jue.

Although the disciples of the martial arts hall run around the mountains and forests all day to eliminate demons, they still do not forget to practice every time they come back.

And since entering the mountains to eliminate demons, the junior brothers and sisters of the martial arts hall have become more and more enterprising in their cultivation.

Among them, there is also the credit of Qin Huai's extreme pressure.

Moreover, it was to exchange some treasures such as paperweight talismans and mysterious innate jade jade bracelets that had the effect of increasing the speed of cultivation, and they were all burned by Qin Huai.

After Gao Chengshi's death.

Qin Huai's efficiency of demon removal returned to the right track, and he returned to the top of the list on the third day.

As for Cai Jiulou's ranking, Qin Huai hadn't seen it.

Anyway, it's not as high as yourself.

Day 3... Baiba Mountain, who entered the mountain to look for people, still hasn't returned.

There are even rumors in the city that Baiba Mountain was attacked by a big demon and died in the mountain.

Day 4 & 5......

Even the owners of the City Lord's Mansion and several major martial arts halls believed the rumor a little and went into the mountains to look for it.

Day 7.

Bai Bashan quietly returned to the Benlei Martial Arts Hall.

He was still as calm as water, not moving as a mountain.

It's just that everyone in the city has seen it, and Baiba Mountain is full of green silk and white hair.

Qin Huai remained silent, and the sense of urgency to improve his strength became stronger and stronger in his heart.

Myself and Baiba Mountain......

In other words, the battle between the Changshan Martial Arts Hall and the Benlei Martial Arts Hall will come one day.

At that time, it will inevitably be a life-and-death battle for the destruction of the museum.

And now that he is facing the six martial artists, he does not have the strength to fight.

"Let's hope the Great War will be after the Demons."

Qin Huai muttered, turned around and threw himself into the mountains again.

……

Ben Lei Wu Museum.

The gray-haired Bai Bashan sat in the lobby stupidly, looking out of the window with a little blank eyes.

"I once warned Yusheng not to contaminate the exercises of the Sacred Heart Sect, then if she goes on the wrong side, she will be killed one day...... But she won't listen......

Side.

Rayjon was the only one standing.

He listened silently to Master's muttering until the voice fell silent.

Then he knelt in front of Bai Bashan and kowtowed three times.

Then he got up,

Head out the door.

He will make the name of Ben Lei Gong resound throughout Pingnan, and he will also make the people of the Sacred Heart Sect never dare to appear in front of him.

"Let's take the first place in the Great Martial Arts Competition first, and see if we can make Master feel better."

Rayjon muttered to himself.

It's as if you're choosing a gift for Master.

……

On the tenth day, the exchange point of the Demon Punishment List removed the paperweight talisman seal and Baoyu True Crystal that can increase the speed of cultivation.

The reason is simple.

Because it was so popular, it was changed by everyone in just ten days.

Qin Huai, in particular, occupied one-third of the share by himself, so that the military attaché at the exchange point couldn't laugh every time he saw Qin Huai.

For the next full month, Qin Huai's demon removal speed began to gradually decrease over time.

It's not because Qin Huai can't do it anymore, but the demons around Pingnan seem to have been almost killed.

Seven or eight hundred demons rushed into Pingnan one after another.

It did not form the kind of overwhelming and suffocating momentum.

Therefore, it did not cause much impact on Pingnan, and most of them were killed by the warriors of the Eight Great Martial Arts Halls.

Qin Huai changed his strategy and added all his free experience to the Changqi Technique.

Because he weighed it.

Compared to the reaction of gambling on the thunder gong to break through again and the long qi recipe.

It's better to really improve the realm of Changqi Jue and make yourself more profitable.

Of course

What's more critical is that there is only one grade difference between Ben Lei Gong and Changqi Jue now.

The speed of breaking through the Thunder Gong will not be much faster than that of Changqi Jue.

And because of the martial arts hall, the martial arts hall lost a lot of manpower in the demon punishment, which hindered Qin Huai's cultivation progress again.

The strong sense of crisis forced Qin Huai to change his strategy.

Drunken Immortal upstairs.

Cai Jiulou drank sullen wine depressedly.

On the gray and yellow parchment at hand is the demon list of the month.

The top position was occupied by Qin Huai's two dazzling characters, and the next two hundred points were even more than double his own one hundred points.

Just like the first day of the Demon List.

Not far away, Qin Huai followed Qi Yangbing and sat with several young people from the military camp who had emerged in this battle for the demon list.

The alliance of the Seven Great Martial Arts Pavilions with the Changshan Martial Arts Pavilion and the Castle Lord's Mansion.

It's still clear.

The only gap is probably Qi Yangbing, who has a wide range of friends.

The people on both sides can eat and drink peacefully on this drunken immortal building, all thanks to Qi Yangbing's face.

"Although the Eight Great Martial Arts Halls' demon punishment has achieved remarkable results this time, there are also a lot of casualties."

"As a result of Lord Sun's order to liquidate, a total of one hundred and twelve martial artists died in the Eight Great Martial Arts." The one-eyed Sun Yeniu muttered.

He is Sun Tong's nephew and a member of the Tiger Battalion of the Iron Armored Army stationed at the foot of Bailiu Mountain.

At the same time, he is also an admirer of Qinhuai's tactics.

"It's equivalent to one less martial arts hall." Qi Yangbing was quite melancholy when he heard this number.

"Even though we have a 1:7 casualty ratio to the demons, it's a remarkable record. But after all, the martial artists in Pingnan City are limited, and they are not as powerful as the demon tide, and they are bottomless."

Sun Yeniu said in a deep voice, "So I propose to promote Master Qin's tactics to the army and the major martial arts halls. It will definitely reduce the number of casualties enormously."

Qi Yangbing waved his hand, "Don't underestimate the poisonous path, this is also a way to look at talent. It's not poisonous in your hands that you can exert its power."

"The timing, the situation on the battlefield, and the order in which the poison is released... The key points are numerous."

"I used to think it was very simple, I wanted to inherit the mantle of the master, but now, only Senior Brother Qin has inherited the charm of the master."

Qi Yangbing can be regarded as "teaching by word and deed".

He's been studying for a long time, but now he's only getting started.

It is far from entering the house and the realm of the unity of body and poison.

It's okay to deal with low-level martial artists.

Dealing with martial artists of the same level or even higher, not only will their own poison not work.

It is also very likely that he will poison himself.

I can't talk about the taste of this.

Qin Huai on the side was silent.

As for the practice of the exercises, I have relied on a certain amount of talent and extraordinary hard work to achieve today's achievements. You can also take it out and explore it with others.

But on the poison road......

Qin Huai can't be modest, it is indeed due to talent.

There is a magical understanding of touching the bypass, and one poison will be all poisons.

It's as if the poison is my own hands, a part of my body, very clear.

"Brother Qin really has a beginning and an end."

Cai Jiulou looked at the dazzling head name on the side.

Laughing, but ugly than crying.

"Senior Brother Cai, it's not a good thing for you to think about this matter from a different angle."

"Oh?" Cai Jiulou glanced coldly at the junior disciples beside him.

"Although Qin Huai took the top spot this month, now the demons around Pingnan have been killed. Then this demon list will naturally be gone for the second month."

"In this case, wouldn't Miss Shaoxiang's promise not need to be fulfilled?"

When Cai Jiulou heard this, his face suddenly soothed a lot.

"Yes, that seems to be a good thing......

Cai Jiulou picked up his wine glass and sighed.

If he is given another two months, he will definitely be able to win the crown and let the young girl fulfill her promise.

Bang bang bang......

On the high ladder of the wooden building, a young man with his back to the wall ran up the stairs quickly.

"Fenshan City has an urgent report, Xia Fenguan is lost, and it is estimated that two thousand demons have crossed Fenshan City and gone straight to Pingnan!"

The young man spoke up, which directly caused an uproar in the entire Drunken Immortal Building.

"What are you kidding? Two thousand?!"

Cai Jiulou was also stunned.

"Didn't you say that the tide of demons on the other side of Fenshan City was only seven or eight thousand?"

"The demons who have passed the level in the two waves before and after are already three thousand! It's more than half of it!"

"What is he guarding Fenshan City?!"

Cai Jiulou asked three questions one after another, which was also the confusion of everyone in the restaurant.

It's just that no one can answer him.

The young man took a sip of wine and moistened his throat, "My friend from Fenshan City sent a message saying that there may be more than seven or eight thousand demons in Fenshan City, and he said that it might be doubled......

"Huh?!"

There was another burst of exclamations upstairs from the drunken immortals.

"Senior Brother Cai, isn't this also a good thing?"

"There is another opportunity to take Miss Shaoxiang's body and mind into her arms~" The dog-legged smiled flatteringly.

"Fart!"

Cai Jiulou kicked the dog's leg out with one kick, "Two thousand demons are a good thing?!"

He glared angrily, his eyes bursting with murderous intent.

Are these guys' brains scalded in boiling water? Speak so thoughtlessly.

What's more, what he said just now was just talking, finding himself a step down.

People with normal brains know that Qin Huai's lead in the demon list.

If this demon list continues for another month.

The top spot is definitely still Qin Huai's.

That kid doesn't know where so many inexplicable poisons came from, and everything can work.

One by one, the young talents of the major martial arts halls could no longer sit still, and they got up one after another to retire.

Qin Huai and Sun Yeniu also left quickly.

"Where did this tide of demons come from?"

Qin Huai was curious.

Sun Yeniu shook his head, "I don't know, but there are rumors that there is a demon valley in the extreme north of the Great Darkness, which is even bigger than the Great Darkness. This is where all the demons in the world come from."

As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.

Inside the martial arts hall.

A worrying scene.

Master Sun Yuanshan and Senior Brother Rong Li both summoned the disciples and apprentices from the martial arts hall to calm people's hearts and arrange troops.

However, some of the results have had little effect.

"Senior brother, I want to take a leave of absence for half a day. Tell your family." Li Zhang knocked on Qin Huai's door, his expression a little twisted.

"Go, go and get back."

Qin Huai waved his hand.

Li Zhang is not the first.

Six or seven of his men went home, and Qi Yangbing and Fang Han also had many disciples and apprentices going home, and they couldn't stop it at all, and there was no way to stop it.

"I don't know where the news leaked out, and this is a big blow to the hearts of the military."

Qi Yangbing and Qin Huai stood side by side, looking at the somewhat empty school ground.

"Last month, our martial arts hall also lost more than a dozen people, which has already put a lot of pressure on many juniors and disciples. Now add this one to the report......

"Even I don't have a bottom in my heart."

"What does the junior brother think?" Qi Yangbing looked at Qin Huai.

"If Master doesn't leave, I won't leave."

Qin Huai did not hesitate in the slightest.

Master was able to unswervingly support himself under the lure of the other seven martial arts halls.

I feel that I have the ability to compete for the first place in the big martial arts.

Be able to think about your own future.

No matter what, I will not disappoint Master.

will not leave the master and his old man alone, facing the tide of demons.

"Senior brother... But I might have to go back too."

Qin Huai opened his mouth, and the three members of the Luofu family didn't know if they knew the news, so they had to send it quickly.

As for what decisions they make, Qin Huai will choose to respect them.

"Hmm."

Qi Yangbing patted Qin Huai's shoulder.

……

Qin Huai hurried back to Pingnan City.

At this moment, the city was already in chaos, and many people drove horse-drawn carriages and dragged their families to the east of the city.

After the east gate, there is the direction of Lingjiang County.

There are also ordinary people and big families who are crazy about grabbing grain, vegetables and other materials on the streets.

The prices in front of those grain stores were changed almost every once in a while.

But it still can't stop the frenzy of grain buyers.

Of course

There are also many people who still walk around the town as usual.

This is all thanks to the blessing of the demon list.

Qin Huai and other geniuses at the top of the demon list have exaggerated achievements.

It makes many people feel that there is still a chance to win, and there is still hope.

Push open the gates of Luofu.

The house is a lot more deserted than the last time I came back.

"Most of the displaced people who originally entered the city are now heading east."

Luo Ya's face was also a little unsightly.

"They have seen the horror of the demon tide, and once they come, we can't stop it. He also advised us to go together......

Qin Huai didn't know what to say.

Evening.

Mrs. Love made another rather hearty dinner.

This time there was only one table of four people left.

"This time, the demons in Fenshan City have come in about two or three thousand."

Qin Huai said the information he had obtained at the dinner table, "I estimate that according to this trend, Fenshan City may be broken earlier than we expected."

Originally, they estimated it to be a year or seven or eight months.

Now it seems that four or five months at most is the limit of Fenshan City.

"I heard that there are defenders at the city gate who have begun to limit the number of people who can leave the city every day, and there are only one or two hundred places... But I should have a way to get you out."

"To go or to stay... It's all your will."

Qin Huai looked at the three of Luo's fathers.

has the relationship of apprentice Hu Jinghai, and it is completely easy to send the three members of the Luo family out of the city.

Taking a step back, he is a disciple of the Changshan Martial Arts Pavilion, and it is not difficult to take a few people out of the city.

This is the right that comes with strength.

"What do you think, senior brother?" Luo Ya looked at Qin Huai.

"Master has the grace of knowing me, and he wants to sacrifice his life to protect my future, I can't abandon Master with such kindness." Qin Huai was very determined.

The table was silent for a while.

"I mean...... I want to stay."

Father Luo spoke, "The blacksmith shop at home is still running, and I want to take advantage of this time to give some armor to the army and the warriors of the major martial arts halls......

"Anyway, I've made enough money to go to Lingjiang now... To put it mildly, there are your eight martial arts halls and the city lord's mansion."

"It's safe for us to leave early and late."

Luo's father was very hesitant and wanted to make some more contributions to Pingnan City.

But I'm still a little worried about the safety of my family.

In the end, the result of the family's discussion was not to leave.

Continue to do the business of the blacksmith shop at cost price, and contribute some modest efforts to this Pingnan City.

As for defending Pingnan City......

When there were seven hundred demons, everyone was still full of confidence.

But until now, even the Eight Great Martial Arts Halls don't dare to think so.

Maybe only the City Lord's Mansion felt that it could still be defended.

……

"Ding! You collected

One [Long Qi Essence (Green)], [Long Qi Essence] experience +99!"

"Ding! You have collected a [Essence of Long Qi (White)], [Long Qi Essence] experience +12!"

"Ding! You have collected a [Long Qi Essence (White)], [Long Qi Essence] experience +17!"

Early the next morning, Qin Huai finished collecting the experience of the long qi recipe as usual.

It's just that this time to collect experience, Qin Huai didn't have the satisfaction in his heart like before.

A huge martial arts hall.

Now those who can provide Qin Huai with more than a hundred points of experience are less than a handful of them.

Most people can only offer a dozen points, or even a few points.

In addition, after many people start to punish demons, they no longer practice uniformly on time.

The experience that Qin Huai was able to collect, and the efficiency of collecting experience had dropped significantly.

"I just want to quietly collect experience breakthroughs, but the demons don't allow it."

Looking at the empty and lively school field, Qin Huai couldn't help but sigh.

In the past month or so, with the blessing of the demons, his long qi trick barely reached the forty-sixth layer (454/5000).

There are still more than 20,000 experience points left to enter the realm of the Five Refinings.

The realm of five refinements can make him the most secure to compete for the top spot in the great martial arts competition.

"And looking at the current form, the Great Martial Arts Competition will definitely be ahead of schedule."

"And relying on the experience of picking up martial arts halls, it will take another two months or even more than two months to break through, which is too slow...... It's too risky."

He made up his mind.

Can't sit back and wait!

He has to take the initiative to find the demon and kill him!

That's it.

Qinhuai climbed the mountain to the ancestral house of Changshan.

"What did you say? You're going deep into the mountains?" Sun Yuanshan looked at Qin Huai dumbfounded.

"Why do you think that?"

Qin Huai's face was calm, "I feel that my current cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and it is time to seek breakthroughs and opportunities in the fight of life and death."

Hearing this, Sun Yuanshan had a strange look on his face.

"I remember you kid... When he confronted that Sacred Heart Sect disciple, he had already shown the realm of the Four Refinements, right?"

"It's only been a few days since you broke through the Fourth Refining?"

"Have you had two months?!"

Sun Yuanshan was speechless, but thought about it carefully.

His own ideas didn't seem to apply well to Qin Huai.

This kid has risen all the way, and the speed of breaking through the realm is as ordinary as eating and drinking, and it is instantaneous.

It cannot be measured by common sense at all.

"Ugh...... Maybe that's genius."

Thousands of words, all kinds of dissuasive words were swallowed back by Sun Yuanshan at the moment of exit.

To this precious apprentice in front of you.

Probably the best cultivation is indulgence.

I've been observing.

Even though he was already in the fourth refining realm, he was not much higher than those little guys on the school field.

I am still learning with an open mind every day, trying to learn from my strengths.

What a hard work, how serious.

Thinking about it carefully, Sun Yuanshan was a little ashamed of himself, and he was ashamed.

"Well, do what you want."

"But the old man only has one thing, and you must abide by it!"

"Master, please speak." Qin Huai was respectful.

Sun Yuanshan's expression was serious, "First, everything must be based on the premise of being alive! First, kill more demons for the old man!"

Wow......

Fang Han ran up from the bottom of the mountain quickly.

He glanced at Qin Huai, and then said, "Master, the City Lord's Mansion proposes that the Great Martial Arts Competition be advanced to two months later!" Now please, go to the proceedings."

Really!

Qin Huai's expression was pale.

"Now add a little more to the teacher, come back on time in two months, and pull that one to me on the first day

Come down!"

Sun Yuanshan flicked his sleeves and walked quickly in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
