After Baili Dongjun and Mo Yishensi left, their true bodies did not return to Kunlun for several days, so Li Changsheng guessed that Penglai was in trouble.
Until the two men showed up five days later, looking exhausted and as if they had had a fight on the road.
The two of them said that they fought with the demon for four days and three nights before barely suppressing it. It took another half to kill it, and it took a lot of time to dispose of the body.
Baili Dongjun pointed at the demon tentacles and spoke slowly:
"As you can see, Mr. Mo and I can work together to kill the demon, which shows that its strength is no better than that of the immortals in the upper realm. It can even be said that we can defeat him head-on.
"But it takes a lot of time. The vitality of the demon is very terrifying."
Mo Yi nodded and pressed down with one hand to suppress the restless and twisted tentacles.
He opened his mouth and said:
"Indeed, even though the main body is dead, the body of the demon still has the instinct of survival and protection."
Li Hanyi frowned slightly, feeling nauseated for no reason, but then he thought about it... wouldn't it be good to practice swordsmanship?
Like a puppet.
At this time, Fang Ping stepped forward with the bone-corroding fairy nail and stabbed it in decisively.
Just hearing a "puff", the self-defense instinct of the tentacles was activated, and they twisted and waved wildly, trying to drive away the enemy.
"It has a different effect."
Qi Tianchen's eyes narrowed:
"This tentacle... seems to be getting smaller."
"But the twisting and struggling became more intense." Fang Ping added.
After finishing his words, the Bone Corroding Immortal Nail bloomed with a dim light, and the demon's tentacles twisted even more intensely, and the two fought against each other.
As time went by, the sucking power of the Bone-corroding Immortal Nail gradually became less intense, and the demon's tentacles became much weaker.
But every time the fairy nails change, the tentacles must sacrifice their size in exchange for energy to use in struggling and resisting.
"Sure enough, the demon's body is the root of its power, and the two can transform into each other."
Baili Dongjun said:
"No wonder the demons are greedy for human flesh and blood, they are just pure beasts and monsters."
Xie Xuan on the side said suspiciously:
"It's very strange. It's understandable that immortals from the upper world fish for luck in the human world. After all, ancient books and classics have stories about immortals gaining strength by offering incense.
"But the demon swallows human flesh and blood...it seems to be just to satisfy the appetite."
As Mo Yi said, living people are not rare things. All living beings are mortal. The most valuable thing is not life, but the labor force that creates life.
If the demon eats people, it will not gain the same benefits as the immortals in the upper world. It can only be delicious.
Fang Ping said:
"I have almost figured out the bone-corroding fairy nail. Its texture is hard and indestructible. The nail is sharp and can easily pierce most objects.
"Then, it has the characteristic of absorbing the target's vitality. The upper limit is unknown, and whether it will absorb the cultivation level is unknown."
Speaking of cultivation, Li Hanyi thought of what Fang Ping said before:
"So you're going to the upper world to catch immortal prisoners again?"
"Wrong, we just asked our friends in the upper world for help."
Fang Ping smiled slightly and waved to her:
"Hanyi, come here and help me."
Li Hanyi: "?"
Although he was confused, he still walked over. After knowing that Fang Ping was not from this world, Li Hanyi was surprised to find that his real age was actually older than her!
Perhaps because of this, or perhaps because of his arrangements during this period, I always subconsciously trust and obey.
After all he is always right.
"What do you want me to do?" Li Hanyi asked suspiciously.
Fang Ping kept smiling:
"I want you to do..."
After a long time, the group of people came to the top of the sea again.
Fang Ping handed the amethyst fairy core to Li Hanyi:
"please."
"..."
The latter looked resentful.
At this moment, Li Hanyi's breath was weak, his robes were slightly messy, his face was stained with filth, and his hands and legs were trembling slightly...
It was caused by a discussion with Fang Ping.
In the past, Li Hanyi was very willing to learn swordsmanship, and enjoyed it, learning new techniques from it...
When Fang Ping entered the state of fugue, she rarely asked for swordsmanship. Firstly, she couldn't win, and secondly... she couldn't win.
Under the suppression of the realm, all skills are in vain, and the places to learn are really limited. It is not worth it to have to be beaten.
"Let's go, it's time to go to heaven."
Fang Ping watched Li Hanyi take off into the air, and doing her like this was a necessary foreshadowing.
Soon, Li Hanyi used the amethyst fairy core to tear out a white line in the sky. Before the crack could open, a faint voice came out:
"I'm coming!"
"Finally it's me!"
"I know it, the boss will definitely not abandon us, bye bye to the upper world cage!"
Amidst the cheers and cheers of the immortal prisoners, the white thread opened the three-centimeter gap.
But what surprised them was that there was no boss on the other side of the crack, and the young man who had negotiated previously was also missing.
There was only one person, a woman who looked like she had just experienced a war.
Li Hanyi spoke first:
"The old immortal prisoner betrayed me and escaped into the lower realm after sneak attack on us. I want an explanation."
"this......"
The immortal prisoners were immediately speechless and looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
How could the boss be so impulsive?
Didn't you agree to wait until everyone is gathered before taking action?
Do you want to monopolize the lower realm?
But with his current level of cultivation, how could he dare to attack first? Aren't he afraid that he would be ruined by a mistake?
Or... he has been hiding and has other trump cards?
Various thoughts flashed through Xian Qiao's mind, but due to lack of information support, it was difficult to confirm.
At this time, the bald immortal prisoner swallowed his saliva and said:
"The boss is not that kind of person. Maybe there is some misunderstanding, or maybe he is a little excited to be free again.
"We have been working together for so many days. We must have basic trust in each other. I can guarantee that the boss is definitely not a desperado!
"Can you elaborate on the situation at that time? The Tianmen closed too quickly at that time..."
Li Hanyi nodded and pretended to remember:
"At that time, he had just passed through the Immortal Gate. He took away the Immortal Core almost instantly and launched an attack. We were unprepared and suffered a loss for a while. After re-arrangement, he had already fled.
"During the subsequent pursuit, his spells were weird and very difficult to deal with. I haven't caught him until now, but I snatched the fairy core back.
"As you can see, the pursuit is quite difficult."
The bald immortal prisoner nodded slightly, and it seemed that he had indeed gone through a lot of suffering.
The bald immortal prisoner's eyes moved slightly, and he took another step forward, his expression revealing desire:
"We are also responsible for this matter, and we are deeply sorry for the damage caused by the boss.
"Of course, we will take up this responsibility and make up for your losses. That's good. My words alone won't help. Let's go down to the realm together and catch the boss and ask for an explanation."
The bald immortal prisoner's eyes are sincere, trying his best to appear sincere, and at the same time his sleeves are full of immortal energy...
It's best if the negotiation can succeed. If it doesn't work, just grab the fairy core directly. The other party is just a woman, and she is also injured. With four people on our side, wouldn't it be easy to control her?
And being trapped in the cave for thousands of years, some things have accumulated too much and need to be replaced with fresh ones.
