The night passed, and nothing happened.

When Li Rui woke up from his rest, Yuan Qing had already prepared the Mountain Walking Beast, and the four of them continued to move forward together.

"Mr. Yuan, do you often come to the mountains on weekdays?" Li Rui asked on the back of his mount.

"I don't come often, I go about once every two to three months, to reduce the number of demons on the mountain, and by the way, check if there is anything abnormal."

"Why don't you get rid of them all?"

Yuan Qing said, "It's not that I can't do it, I can't do it." If you go into the mountain with me, you will soon see that there are too many demons in front of you, and they cannot be killed in any way, and you will not be able to get rid of them all. ”

Li Rui thought to himself, Jingyang Academy Palace just doesn't have a high sense of existence, it's not that its strength is not strong, they are still a relatively large force in the secret world, if even they can't get rid of the demons on the Devil's Cry Ridge, it means that it is indeed a little difficult.

Yuan Qing added: "Back then, the ancestors who originally founded the Academy Palace really wanted to get rid of the evil demons, but after many years, they didn't succeed, and there was even an evil qi backpour in the past, which caused the lives under the mountain to be ruined. ”

What he said was the time node before Li Rui and the three of them were dragged into the illusion by Cen Lanjing, and the impact of the evil qi infusion of the Devil's Crying Ridge was too great, so the school palace decided to build the Demon Tower.

Thinking of what happened in the illusion, Li Rui asked casually: "Mr. Yuan, do you know Zuo Qiutian?" ”

"How many people in the world don't know?" Yuan Qing replied.

Li Rui smiled: "That's true, but I mean, do you know something about him differently than others?" ”

Yuan Qing turned his head to look at him again: "Don't hide it from Brother Li Xian, Zuo Qiutian's real name is Zuo Liang, and he used to be a disciple of the Academy Palace, and he was the junior disciple of the family teacher. But this past, he himself doesn't mention it, and very few people know about it, how did you know? ”

Li Rui pondered for a few seconds and replied, "I and Zuo Qiutian are also old acquaintances. ”

He didn't mention Cen Lanjing, because the old man specifically said it at that time, there was no need to mention himself.

Yuan Qing nodded: "Brother Li Xian is really a young hero. ”

Li Rui said a few words modestly, and then the group began to rush in silence.

The speed of the mountain beasts was very fast, and they even met a few Xuegong disciples who were patrolling the mountain halfway, and those people were a little surprised to see Yuan Qing personally leading a few strangers up the mountain.

"Senior brother, the evil spirit of Ghost Crying Mountain has been surging recently, so be more vigilant." Someone reminded.

However, it was impossible for Li Rui and the others to just stop, and Yuan Qing did not stop him and continued to lead the way.

Unsurprisingly, the further you go, the more demons there are, and the eerie feeling grows stronger.

Even if it was daylight at this time, and the light was shining brightly above the head, it was already dark on this Devil's Crying Ridge, even if it was a few steps away.

Finally, when it was time to climb a peak, the demons in the darkness could not hold back.

"Whew-"

With a roar, a large group of black shadows rushed out and surrounded them from different directions.

"Whew-"

Sensing threatened, the mountainwalker tried to make a noise to repel the enemy.

Despite the fact that they are usually trained by the Academy, they still show obvious uneasiness, after all, they are only animals.

Li Rui calmly observed the threat that rushed out, and did not make any movement for a long time, because he felt that what rushed out of the darkness was a little familiar.

These demons that filled the Devil's Crying Ridge were all black, their bodies were mutilated, and there was a sense of distortion all over their bodies.

Just like the name of the classmate palace, the reason why they are called evil demons is because it is really impossible to determine whether this thing is a yin evil soul, a demon beast, or a spirit.

They don't seem to belong to any race other than Devil May Cry.

"Hey, what are you doing, hurry up."

Cheng Mingyue's shout woke Li Rui up, but it was Yuan Qing who shot before him, the current head of the school palace used a sword, and the shot was a sword light, which was a bit like Wei Xun's means.

It's just that the governor of the Demon Town Division is unrestrained and heroic, and Yuan Qing's sword intent is even more chic and free, as if what he has in his hand is not a weapon, but a pen.

When Li Rui saw him make a move, he didn't move again, because he could see that these few swords alone were enough to deal with the immediate threat.

Although there are a lot of demons, it didn't take long for nearly a hundred to pop up, but their strength is not particularly strong, that is, ordinary monsters of about level 60, and Yuan Qing is also at the level of NPCs in the world, and they were all solved in an instant.

Those demons were pierced by the sword light, turned into puffs of black smoke and dissipated, and returned to the darkness, and the surrounding area was calm.

"Mr. Yuan, good means."

Li Rui complimented.

Yuan Qing smiled slightly: "Hurry up, go forward, if they stop here, they will come back in a short time." ”

So the group set off again.

Li Rui asked, "Mr. Yuan, are the demons on this mountain similar to what appeared just now?" ”

"It shouldn't be much different."

"Are they revenants?"

Li Rui asked again, "I didn't feel any evil spirit. ”

Yuan Qing said: "Naturally, it's not a dead soul, I don't know what it is, I can only be sure that its germination is related to landmines." ”

"Mine-related?!"

Cheng Mingyue asked, "Impossible, isn't that a spell from the upper realm?" You see that the gods and thunder snakes are all shining, how can the mines be so gloomy. ”

Li Rui said: "No, if it is reversed, isn't it a similar effect? ”

His reversal of Yin and Yang can make other thunder methods become the opposite attribute, and if the mine is reversed, it is understandable to cause such a situation.

Yuan Qing couldn't help but glance at him, as if he was a little curious, but didn't ask.

Li Rui just frowned, he kept wondering what those crippled monsters that rushed out of the darkness were.

"Brother Gui, can you use your skills to try it in the dark?" He asked.

Of course, Guan Gui would not refuse, and immediately cast the little ghost to ask for directions, allowing the evil summon to run into the darkness on the Ghost Cry Ridge.

But it didn't take long for him to say, "It's interrupted." ”

Obviously, it was the connection between him and those imps that was broken.

It's something that's more "dead" than evil spirits.

Li Rui thought so in his heart.

On the way forward, more demons appeared, but naturally it was not a problem for the four of them, but the further they went, the more they went, the more they numbered, and a lot of time would be delayed.

When the sky above me darkened again, the scene ahead finally changed, and instead of slowly ascending, it began to descend with a gentle slope.

Here, a new demon appeared, only this time, because of the slight change in their form, Li Rui finally remembered why he had a familiar feeling.

They seemed to be very similar to the kind of unknown monsters that they encountered in the Ascension Hall when they were transferred and advanced. (End of chapter)
