The Path to Immortality

The sky gradually darkened.

Two demons with the strength of the late Qi training stage wandered from the direction of Qingyuan City under the cover of night and bumped into Fang Ping and his party from a distance.

Sensing the breath of the cultivators, the two demons turned around and flew towards them with ferocious expressions.

"It's the Blood Demon! Everyone be careful!"

Mao Gang had read the intelligence released by the sect and recognized the origins of the two demons at a glance, and warned them.

Without him saying much, several people had already raised their vigilance, each activating their magic tools and attacking the oncoming demons.

"Hehe, fresh flesh and blood!"

Feeling the spiritual blood of the human cultivators, the two Blood Demons sent demonic thoughts from a distance.

Still dozens of feet away, spells condensed by demonic energy were already whistling and flying.

"A mere Blood Demon dares to cause trouble!"

Mao Gang snorted coldly, pinched the magic formula, and transformed his top-grade magic sword into six clear sword lights, easily crushing the demonic energy.

On the other side, Changsun Xian was unwilling to be outdone and took out a halberd-shaped magic weapon.

After infusing it with magic power, it created a huge thunderstorm, instantly annihilating the remaining demonic energy.

The blood demons like the flesh and blood of cultivators. In the Demon Realm, they will attack bleeding and injured cultivators in groups.

But without the advantage of numbers, facing the inner disciples of Luoyang Sect with similar realms, their strength is a bit insufficient.

Seeing that the two senior brothers easily blocked the attack of the blood demons, Junior Sister Yu and Junior Brother Shen were relieved.

Each of them activated their own magic weapon and began to fight back.

Facing this battle that was clearly no suspense, Fang Ping was also happy to relax. He released the Golden Dragon Sword and casually showed his strength that was not inferior to Changsun Xian and Mao Gang.

Under the siege of five people, the first blood demon was killed in an instant.

Seeing the amazing strength of the human cultivators, the other blood demon knew that he had hit a wall, so he turned around and fled in the direction of Qingyuan City.

"Want to run?"

Chang Sunxian and Mao Gang's eyes were cold, and they started to chase him.

Obviously, the two had already regarded this battle as a different kind of contest, and wanted to take this opportunity to show their strength and suppress the other party!

Just when the two of them were chasing the blood demon at full speed, and they were a little out of touch with Fang Ping and the other two.

Fang Ping's eyes swept across the nearby void. He had practiced Taiwei Yangshen Pian for many years, and his soul was much stronger than that of ordinary Qi training cultivators. He suddenly noticed something strange.

Could it be?

Remembering something, he immediately became alert and activated the spiritual eye technique.

The situation in front of him was different in an instant.

In the originally empty void, there was an invisible demon head whose whole body was condensed by Yin Qi.

The invisible demon head was ethereal, without facial features, and his aura was extremely secretive, and could not be detected by the naked eye. Only the foundation-building cultivators who condensed their consciousness could detect them more easily.

It was the Yin Demon, the most difficult to guard against among all the demon heads!

If Fang Ping guessed correctly, this Yin Demon should have wandered here with the two Blood Demons. However, seeing that the human cultivators were powerful, he did not attack immediately, but looked for an opportunity in secret.

The disconnection between Mao Gang and Changsun Xian, coupled with the fact that Junior Sister Yu and Junior Brother Shen relaxed after killing the demon, gave it an opportunity to take advantage of.

At this moment, the demon had quietly circled behind Junior Sister Yu, ready to launch a sneak attack at any time!

"Be careful behind you!"

Fang Ping warned loudly.

At the same time, the top-grade magic weapon [Golden Dragon Sword] flew out quickly.

Under the urging of the powerful magic power, the golden dragon phantom had already flashed before the sword arrived, and hit the Yin Demon first.

The power of the top-grade magic weapon was so amazing that even a hasty attack was enough to make the Yin Demon feel a great threat, forcing it to give up the sneak attack.

Seeing the Yin Demon being exposed by the Golden Dragon Sword Wave, Sister Yu was shocked to realize that she was almost attacked by an invisible demon. A bit of panic and fear flashed across her face.

She quickly distanced herself and raised her protective magic weapon, then she cast a grateful look at Fang Ping who came to her aid in time.

"Yin Demon!"

Sister Shen also recognized the origin of the demon at this time. In addition to being shocked, he also looked at Fang Ping's strength with new eyes.

This person's cultivation seems to be only slightly stronger than Changsun Xian and Mao Gang, but he can so keenly perceive the existence of the Yin Demon. His true strength is probably more than the level he showed before!

It is definitely a blessing for me and others to meet him leading the team on this patrol!

The biggest threat of the Yin Demon is that it is invisible and difficult to detect.

Once discovered, its threat is very limited, especially in front of a cultivator who has practiced the spiritual eye technique.

Under Fang Ping's command, the three of them accurately locked the position of the Yin Demon and easily destroyed it.

Until this moment, Mao Gang and Chang Sunxian, who had already killed the escaped Blood Demon, barely returned.

Seeing the Yin Demon that attacked Junior Sister Yu turned into ashes under the scorching sun fire, both of them looked a little unhappy.

To be honest, Junior Sister Yu was careless and gave the Yin Demon a chance to attack. But it is also an indisputable fact that they were eager to kill the demon and took the initiative to disconnect from the team.

Fortunately, this Senior Brother Fang discovered it in time...

Otherwise, their team might have suffered casualties on the first day of the five-day patrol.

After apologizing to Junior Sister Yu for their impulsiveness, the five-member team returned to normal and continued to patrol.

But this little episode still brought a little impact.

Junior Brother Shen and Junior Sister Yu, who had a bad impression of Chang Sunxian and Mao Gang, now felt a little more alienated. They became closer and more trusting of Fang Ping, who rescued people at the critical moment.

Especially that Junior Sister Yu, who kept calling him "Senior Brother Fang" and smiling in her conversation, looked like she was the leader, and obviously recognized his strength from the bottom of her heart.

As for Changsun Xian and Mao Gang, although they were still a little unconvinced in their hearts, they were helpless in the face of the actual results of the battle and could only give up the internal struggle for the time being.

In this atmosphere of superficial unity, the team ended the first day of patrol.

In the next few days, although they encountered several waves of sneak attacks from demons and alien monsters, under the leadership of Fang Ping, they still completed the task smoothly without any danger.

After returning to the Ding District base and submitting the patrol mission, Fang Ping waved goodbye to Junior Sister Yu and others who were a little reluctant to leave, and he was really relieved.

"Finally... we can start exploring Qingyuan City!"

For the possible foundation-building opportunities in the city, he was already a little impatient.

………

Outside Qingyuan City

This once prosperous city with hundreds of thousands of people has now become a desolate place.

The heart-pounding black demonic energy gushed out from the bottomless abyss running from north to south. It passed over the half-collapsed city wall and spread hundreds of feet outside the city.

Outside the range of this demonic energy, life was withered and all that could be seen was dead silence.

But in Qingyuan City, under the erosion of demonic energy and the collision and fusion of the two worlds, new and strange monsters and spiritual plants continued to appear, gradually evolving a unique ecology.

There are many opportunities, but more dangers!

Affected by the gushing of demonic energy, the situation in Qingyuan City changes frequently, especially the two-world passage closer to the city center.

Unless you are extremely lucky, it is almost impossible to find [Soul Condensing Dew] in one exploration.

Fang Ping has a deep understanding of this.
