Xu Chunniang's expression was calm, she took one step forward as if strolling in the courtyard, and slapped She Mo on the forehead.
Feeling the destructive power in this palm wind, Snake Mo's face was full of despair. However, she tried her best, but she could not stop the palm wind for even half a breath.
In the end, Snake Mo died inch by inch in this seemingly gentle palm wind.
The demon's pupils suddenly shrank, then returned to normal, and said with a smile, "I can easily solve it for you, just a snake, so why do you have to make this trip yourself?"
Xu Chunniang smiled slightly, "You have already helped me a lot by taking Snake Mo out of the city. How can I bother you again? I will remember this favor."
The walking demon waved his hand, his tone casual.
"What's the point of being unkind? You and I have been working together for so many years, so why does she need to be so polite? It's just a little effort. Don't worry about it. Now that Snake Mo has been dealt with, I should go and take care of that batch of goods.
It's not safe for you to be alone outside this area, so it would be better to return to the city as soon as possible. "
Xu Chunniang nodded slightly, and after watching Old Demon disappear, she turned and returned to Yuancheng.
Dealing with Snake Mo was only the next step. Her purpose of leaving seclusion this time was to collect the last of the Yin objects.
However, after learning about the dangers of the ancient cemetery from the walking demon, she temporarily gave up the idea of going out of the city to search for the most sinister thing in person, and decided to stay in the city to practice for a while.
After all, the Evil Bone Puppet and the Resentment Demon are extremely difficult evil things to deal with. Even if she had the Chaos Qi around her, she would not want to deal with such evil things.
After returning to the city, Xu Chunniang began to retreat again.
She has been trading with the five major trading houses for many years, and she has sold more than 90% of the magic materials in the Dragon Ball space in exchange for an astonishing amount of magic crystals.
Excluding the expenses she has spent on raising souls over the years and the magic crystals used at auctions, the number of magic crystals on her body has accumulated to 20 million.
Twenty million magic crystals is an extremely huge amount of wealth. As the saying goes, money can make the world go round. With such a large amount of magic crystals, she can leave Abyss City and return to the devil world at any time as long as she wants.
But Xu Chunniang has not forgotten how she came to Yuancheng in the first place.
As the King of the North, Greedy Wolf is also an outstanding existence among the demon kings, and his reputation is much higher than other demon kings.
Back then, he personally sent people to throw Xu Chunniang to Yuancheng.
Although nearly twenty years had passed, he had probably forgotten a little person like her, but what if he suddenly remembered it on a whim one day?
Xu Chunniang didn't want to gamble.
It was difficult for her to deal with Long Yu, who was in the Heavenly Demon Empress Realm, let alone Greedy Wolf, the best among the demon kings.
When the difference in strength is too big, even if she has all the abilities, there is no room for her to use them.
It was like Snake Mo was helpless in front of her.
These thoughts flashed through Xu Chunniang's mind, and her mood became calmer. Before she had the strength to compete with Greedy Wolf, the outside world was actually safe for her.
Moreover, swallowing the black breath can strengthen the chaos energy in her body and directly improve her cultivation. After leaving this "treasure land" outside the territory, where can she find so much black breath?
Thinking of this, she became more determined in her heart. Before her cultivation reached the Demon King realm, she should stay outside the territory honestly.
Xu Chunniang returned to the cave in Nancheng District and began a new round of retreat.
Since the Dao Fruit and Demonic Seed in her body were completely fused, she can absorb both fairy crystals and demonic crystals, and the speed of absorbing demonic energy has increased several times compared to before.
With the operation of the technique, with every breath and breath, a large amount of magic crystals turned into demonic energy, which continuously poured into Xu Chunniang's body, and then transformed into chaotic true energy, enriching and strengthening the Dao Fruit Demonic Seed bit by bit.
As the realm increases, the improvement of cultivation level will become slower and slower, coupled with the process of converting demonic energy into chaotic energy, therefore, although she incorporates more demonic energy and faster than before, the growth of cultivation level will be slower and slower. The speed is getting slower and slower.
In contrast, Xu Chunniang had expected it and was not surprised.
Her state of mind far exceeds her current state, and she will not encounter any bottlenecks that hinder her practice. As long as there are enough magic crystals and the practice time is long enough, it will be a matter of time before she breaks through to the Earth Demon Empress Realm.
From then on, except for the annual auction, which Xu Chunniang would attend on time, she spent the rest of her time practicing.
As for the auction, she only participated in the first six times.
After taking the last piece of the Yin object, she never participated in subsequent auctions.
The transactions with the five major trading houses were gradually suspended as the magic materials in her hands were exhausted. In the end, there was no contact with them for decades.
When Xu Chunniang came out of seclusion again, it was already eighty years later.
Eighty years is neither long nor short, but in this foreign land where people die every day, such a long time is enough to change many things.
The shopkeepers of the five major trading houses have changed a lot. The demons who had a good relationship with her at first, after accumulating enough magic crystals, left the outside world and returned to the demon world as they wished.
Xu Chunniang felt deeply that she still owed him a favor, but before she could repay the favor, he returned to the demon world.
However, with the cautious character of the walking demon, even if he returns to the demon world, he will probably stay in the demon city and will not take risks in some dangerous places.
When she returns to the demon world in the future, she might be able to contact him again.
This thought flashed through Xu Chunniang's mind, then she put it behind her mind. As she walked towards the west city gate, she pondered about lifting the seal in her heart.
The old man of the soul witch clan once warned her that in order to lift the second seal that trapped him, in addition to the nine heavenly demon-level to yin objects and the cultivation of the earthly demon rear realm, she also needed to comprehend at least nine soul talismans. .
During the eighty years of seclusion, she had multitasked. In addition to daily practice, she also devoted half of her mind to comprehending the soul talisman.
At first, under the guidance of the old man of the Soul Witch Clan, it only took her two years to master the three Soul Talisman.
Without the careful explanation from the old man of the soul shaman tribe, and the distraction of her attention, Xu Chunniang's progress in comprehending the soul talisman was extremely slow.
But eighty years was long enough, and she relied on her own understanding to understand the true meaning of the six soul talismans and reached the lowest threshold to lift the seal.
Therefore, Xu Chunniang was very confident when she came out of seclusion this time and could lift the second layer of seal in one fell swoop.
The West Gate is still as lively as ever, and it looks the same as it did eighty years ago, but the faces of the people coming and going have changed one after another.
Those who have been seeking a living outside the territory all year round are all people who lick blood. Even if they are powerful demons, there are still many people who will never come back after leaving the city.
Xu Chunniang watched silently for a while, then withdrew her gaze and headed out of the city alone.
