Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

Deep in the Changsheng Mountain, there is an old forest.

The forest seemed to be swallowed by darkness, as black as ink, and not even a trace of light could penetrate.

The dead trees stretched straight upwards, like the claws of evil spirits that suddenly grew out of the underworld. They were deeply rooted in the ground, with a hideous look after years of decay.

The bark of the dead trees is cracked, like faces twisted in pain, silently telling the strange past of this forest.

In the woods, the faint black air lingered and hovered like a ghost, as if it had life, entwining the dead trees in strands.

The ground was covered with a layer of inexplicable moisture, as if it was a huge swamp, dragging all living creatures who set foot here into an endless abyss.

Occasionally, a gust of cold wind blew from nowhere, causing the dead wood to creak strangely, and the black air also floated and changed shape with the cold wind...

"Are you sure we want to go in?"

Standing in front of the old forest, Qi Xiu frowned slightly. He felt a strong dragon energy mixed with an inexplicable and strange smell escaping from it.

When he first came to Changsheng Mountain, he also sensed a dragon aura.

I originally thought that it was a dragon vein born in this majestic mountain.

Now it seems that the source of the dragon energy is actually this place.

"You don't want to go in? This is the only known place in our Middle-earth world where a dragon has fallen. The dragon-subduing nail that I used to restrain the evil Maitreya when I went to the Wangchuan Sea Cliff with Taoist Yanhuang originated from here."

When mentioning Taoist Master Yanhuang, Hu Tianzong glanced at Qi Xiu suspiciously.

He clearly returned from the Tang Dynasty with Taoist Master Yanhuang.

But when he was released from the True Dragon Realm, the people he saw were Qi Xiu and Dongfang Qing.

Qi Xiu explained to him that Taoist Yan Huang had been seriously injured while controlling the Time Array and had gone into seclusion to recuperate.

And he also has the means to open the True Dragon Realm.

Although Hu Tianzong did not quite believe this statement, he once suspected that the so-called Taoist Yanhuang and Qi Xiu were actually the same person.

But the two of them had been traveling together for so long, and he had tried many methods.

But the final feedback indicated that Taoist Yanhuang and Qi Xiu were different in terms of their physical aura, soul imprint, and even fate.

If two such different people were transformed from the same person, then his ability to transform would be too extraordinary.

So even though he had deep doubts in his heart, Hu Tianzong could not conclude that Qi Xiu and Taoist Yanhuang were the same person.

Noticing Hu Tianzong's gaze, Qi Xiu smiled helplessly in his heart.

It is simply impossible to deceive a genius like Hu Tianzong without leaving any trace.

Fortunately, he did not leave any substantial evidence, so no matter how suspicious he was, it was just suspicion.

"The place where dragons fell..." Upon hearing this name, Qi Xiu's true dragon mark felt a slight tremor, and a piece of inheritance information emerged in his mind.

Falling dragon.

That is, a true dragon that died in an abnormal way!

Unnatural deaths are very common among all races in the universe. After all, accidents happen to everyone.

But the true dragon clan is different.

As the protagonist of heaven and earth, the supreme spirit.

The True Dragon Clan is born sacred. Even a newly born dragon has the power of the Great Perfection of the Bloodstained Realm, and the power will grow madly with every breath and every moment.

As long as they reach adulthood, the True Dragon clan will possess the strength of the Yuanshen realm.

According to the laws of the dragon clan, a little dragon cannot leave the Dragon Palace until it reaches adulthood.

Therefore, the real dragon that can cause the dragon falling incident is most likely an adult real dragon, that is, a true spirit.

It can cause an adult true dragon to fall to its death.

What kind of existence is needed to accomplish this?

What's more, the true dragon clan is born sacred. After they die with resentment, the place where the dragon fell will become a restricted area.

If this place where the dragon fell was really transformed from an adult real dragon.

Not to mention the two of them who are Taoist Masters.

Even if a true soul goes in, he will be trapped inside.

"Do you know how dangerous this place is? Not to mention you and me, even Yuanshen Zhenzun dare not guarantee that we can enter and exit freely and escape unscathed."

Shaking his head, Qi Xiu slowly took two steps back.

There must be rare treasures in the place where the dragon fell, that’s for sure.

But risking his life for a few rare treasures was not his style.

"Would I ask you to do something too dangerous? What are you looking at?"

With a mysterious smile, Hu Tianzong reached into the bright red cloak and grabbed it. When he spread out his palm, a small tuft of snow-white, flawless hair with a faint divine glow appeared in the palm of his hand.

"This is..." Noticing the tuft of hair on Hu Tianzong's palm, Qi Xiu's eyes flashed purple.

A fox with a completely snow-white body, flawless beauty, nine tails swaying behind it, and a noble temperament slowly appeared in front of him.

"This is the life-saving hair given to me by my third old master.

Wrap a wisp of your or my breath around this hair, and then immerse it into the body of a living being, and you can create this life-changing method.

If we encounter any accidents in this Land of Fallen Dragons, this method will take effect immediately. It can not only eliminate the disaster, but also bring you and me out of the Land of Fallen Dragons."

After hearing Hu Tianzong's introduction to the life-changing hair, Qi Xiu looked up at him in confusion:

"You have prepared so carefully. It seems that you have been thinking about this Dragon Falling Land for a long time."

"Hehehe, look, if there is a treasure hole at the door of your house that tempts you every day, how can you not be tempted?

Don't worry, we'll just wander around the outskirts of this dragon-falling place and not go deep into it.

My Fulong nail was placed here last time and I picked it up."

Rubbing his hands, Hu Tianzong patiently chatted with Qi Xiu for a long time. It was obvious that the young patriarch of the Hu family had wanted to enter the place where the dragon fell to find out what was going on.

But my family didn't allow it and I couldn't find a suitable helper.

Today, the time, the place and the people are all right. If he doesn't explore the place where the dragon fell, he will probably not be able to let it go for a long time.

"You guy, forget it, I'll just go with you on this one."

Seeing Hu Tianzong's eager look, Qi Xiu couldn't help laughing and shook his head. This old man had said so much and even took out the life-saving hair personally given by Mr. Hu San. If he didn't accompany him on this trip, he would probably regret it for the rest of his life.

Now that there are sufficient guarantees, Qi Xiu can't help but feel a little curious about the place where the dragon fell.

After all, compared to Hu Tianzong, an outsider.

But he is a genuine dragon.

If there really is any rare treasure in this place where the dragon fell, he might have a chance to take it out.

He was also very curious about what caused this place where dragons fell.

Seeing Qi Xiu agreed, Hu Tianzong was naturally overjoyed, and immediately began to practice the life-changing hair method after making all preparations.

The two of them then walked into the old forest which was as dark as ink and seemed to swallow everything.
