After making up his mind, he looked around and then jumped down.
The entrance to the cave was not deep, only about ten meters. As soon as he landed on the ground, the feeling became several times stronger.
At this time, Wu Tian finally understood what had been attracting him.
Demonic energy.
And it is the kind of pure demonic energy unique to the demon clan.
He Demon Man does not rely on plundering human blood to condense the magic patterns. Demon Slayer relies on hunting and capturing Demon People's magic patterns to improve his realm. However, Wu Tian, who practices the Nine Heavens and Ten Earth Demonic Skills, can only increase his strength by absorbing the magic energy, so he is the only one. Only then could he faintly detect the aura of demonic energy, which even other Mahayana monks could not do.
Thinking of this, Wu Tian couldn't help but become a little more active.
The presence of demonic aura here is obviously abnormal. Is the thing inside a magic weapon?
Or the demon who has been hiding for many days?
Looking at the dark passage in front of me, I don't know where it extends, like a ferocious beast opening its bloody mouth waiting for prey to enter.
Wu Tian did not hesitate. For him, both magic weapons and demons were his goals.
Soon, he carefully walked down the passage, and at the same time, the surging spiritual consciousness spread around to prevent any sudden attack.
This passage winds down, and there is silence along the way. As it goes deeper, the surrounding black fog gradually thickens, and Wu Tian's body becomes trembling.
It wasn't fear, it was excitement.
Ever since he took out the demonic relics a few years ago, his magic patterns have been stagnant, and even the demonic energy he absorbed before has been exhausted. Now that he finally has a chance to practice, his body is also growing uncontrollably. Get "excited".
Fortunately, Wu Tian did not get carried away by the excitement and continued to move forward.
After an unknown amount of time, Wu Tian's spiritual consciousness, shrouded in the black mist of demonic energy, suddenly received a warning sign of danger. He slowed down his pace, and after walking forward for hundreds of meters, an underground cave appeared in front of him.
It is the size of five football fields, and it is densely packed with surging blood. If there was a blood pool under the demon Wu Tian encountered before, this is a lake, which is ten or twenty times larger.
There are densely packed stone pillars in the cave, and a rickety figure is sitting cross-legged on one of the stone pillars.
He was only about one meter tall. If it weren't for the little bloody man walking around above his head, Wu Tian would have never noticed his existence.
Devil?
It looks like it's still at the late eighth level and about to break through to the ninth level?
Wu Tian took a deep breath, but he didn't expect to meet him.
People are now looking for him outside, including several Mahayana monks. Unexpectedly, this guy is hiding here to practice.
At this time, even Wu Tian couldn't help but admire this guy's courage. A thousand meters above his head was a small border town. The darkness under the lamp would indeed make many people ignore it. If the devilish energy hadn't leaked out a little, he happened to be here. If Wu Tian catches it, he might be able to hide it from the enemy.
As for now, Wu Tian showed a smile. At this moment, he seemed to have discovered something, and then he looked up at the top of the cave.
There are seven blood-colored beads floating there, and they are forming a strange pattern. Countless pure demonic energies are pouring out, filling the entire cave. The demon below is cultivating with the help of these demonic energies to prepare for the final breakthrough. be prepared.
What's this?
Wu Tian licked his lips, and then shook his head. It didn't matter what these were, but they contained the demonic energy he needed.
It's just that although he is greedy, these beads are dozens of meters above the head of the demon. If he grabs them at this moment, he will definitely arouse the other party's vigilance.
It's hard to say whether he can be snatched by then, but if the matter is revealed, the demon will definitely escape, and it will be difficult to find him by then.
After some thought, Wu Tian had to give up the idea. Unwilling to give up, he suddenly had an idea. Since he had to wait here for the other party to overcome the calamity, why not also take the opportunity to practice the Nine Heavens and Ten Earth Demonic Skills.
He did what he thought of, and looked around. There was a blood lake below. It was impossible to go down. It was a full five hundred meters away from where the demon was. It was safe, but the demonic energy was not abundant.
Next, Wu Tian spent nearly half an hour, and finally found a protruding spot on the edge of the cliff, about two hundred meters away from the demon, where the demonic energy was sufficient.
Soon, he entered into cultivation, and at the same time, he set aside part of his spiritual consciousness to pay attention to the demon. This would make the cultivation speed much slower, but at least it would be safe.
After a while, a fourth level of heaven and earth filled with clouds and mist appeared behind Wu Tian. The surrounding demonic energy seemed to be attracted by something and began to slowly flow there.
At the same time, demonic patterns appeared on the surface of his body, and upon careful counting, there were forty-six in total.
Three days later, the demon slowly opened his eyes and frowned slightly.
This demon named Cuo Lao Mo was not in a good mood. He had discovered this cave ten years ago and had prepared a lot for it to survive the calamity. In the end, he actually deceived those stupid humans.
Everything was going according to his plan, but just as his realm was gradually reaching the peak of the eighth level, he suddenly found that his speed had slowed down a lot in the past few days.
However, at this time, Cuo Lao Mo's spiritual intelligence had been greatly diminished, and his brain had also become dull. He looked around and saw that it was still quiet and the black mist was still thick, so he entered into practice again.
Not far away, Wu Tian, who stopped next, also breathed a sigh of relief. The demonic energy here was not as good as that of the previous ruins. It could be absorbed and practiced unscrupulously, and the further back, the slower the improvement speed.
After these few days of practice, he only replenished the lost magic power and added a magic pattern.
No matter, as long as he doesn't finish, I will keep fighting until he can survive the disaster.
Wu Tian glanced at the other party from afar, and then entered into practice again.
Soon, a month passed.
During this period of time, Wu Tian had been fighting for the magic energy with the other party.
The demon woke up several times, but never found anything wrong, so he could only speed up the absorption.
Just like this, under the struggle between the two sides, the surrounding demonic energy began to thin.
In the last few days, the underground cave that was originally shrouded in black mist actually regained its clarity, because the seven blood-colored beads were immediately snatched away by the two of them every time the demonic energy gushed out.
At this time, the devil seemed to have reached a critical moment. Although he was suspicious, he never stopped practicing.
On the other side, Wu Tian looked helpless. As early as two days ago, he came to the edge of breakthrough. Forty-nine magic lines were looming on his body. As long as there was one more, he could break through and enter the realm of five heavens and earth.
However, its breakthrough also required a large amount of demonic energy, so he did not hesitate to "rob" it directly, but it was still far from enough.
Because he was afraid that the other party would wake up in the next second, Wu Tian raised his head and looked at the bloody beads above his head, then gritted his teeth.
The next second, a terrifying suction force rushed out from the illusory world behind him. The blood-colored beads trembled suddenly, and streams of pure demonic energy continued to spurt out.
Before, the demonic energy would be divided between the two sides, but at this time Wu Tian's suction power was much stronger than before. Under this unreasonable search, nearly 90% of the demonic energy entered the illusory world.
With the continuous supply of magic energy, the fiftieth magic pattern soon appeared on Wu Tian's skin.
As soon as it is fully formed, he will truly enter the realm of five heavens and earth.
However, at this moment, an imperceptible click sound came.
Wu Tian paused, and then he saw cracks on the surface of one of the blood-colored beads above his head, and then the whole thing exploded.
Before he could react, the rest of the blood-colored beads exploded in just a few seconds like a chain reaction.
With the contribution of this last wave of demonic energy, the originally vague fifth level of heaven and earth behind Wu Tian finally appeared.
"No,,,"
At this moment, a shrill scream rang out, and Wu Tian suddenly turned around, just in time to see a pair of violent and destructive eyes looking at him from a distance, with a ferocious look that seemed to be about to cut him into pieces.
"It's you who stole my demonic energy. It's you. I'm going to cut you into pieces."
At this time, Cuo Lao's demonic energy chest was rising and falling violently. He never expected that most of the demonic energy he had collected for a long time would be stolen by a mouse right under his nose.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Wu Tian, who was doing this for the first time, was also a little embarrassed. Just when he wanted to say something to lighten the atmosphere, a dull thunder suddenly came from above the cave.
He was suddenly startled, and even the old demon who wanted to take action stopped.
"Damn it, the disaster is coming."
He panicked for a while. According to the plan, he planned to wait until he absorbed all the demonic energy before overcoming the tribulation. Unexpectedly, he failed to suppress his aura in anger and caused the catastrophe.
At this moment, Cuo Lao Mo couldn't even care about Wu Tian. He quickly flew to the middle of the blood lake and adjusted his breath.
On the other side, Wu Tian also stayed away, for fear of attracting divine punishment.
At the same time, dark clouds were already covering the small border town, and countless black thunder and lightning were roaring.
"There is a demon who is going through a catastrophe."
A monk in the distance noticed something unusual here. He quickly flew over and roared at his companions: "Quickly inform the city lord that this demon is about to escape the tribulation. His location is, uh, in a small border town."
As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely thick black lightning struck straight down, splitting a big hole in the town, and at the same time, it aimed directly at the Cuo Lao Mo below.
"bring it on,"
Cuo Laomo is not afraid. He knows that he has to go through six or nine heavenly tribulations. The whole process will only take about ten minutes at most. Once it is over, he will leave here immediately. Even those Mahayana monks cannot catch up.
No, he couldn't leave. He glanced at Wu Tian who was standing in the distance, and it wasn't too late to leave after cutting him into pieces.
Wu Tian naturally saw the murderous intent in the opponent's eyes. He was no match for the ninth-level demon, but he thought that escaping would not be a problem, not to mention that there were so many people coming outside.
The most important thing right now is whether the opponent can induce the bloody thunder.
At this moment, the cave shook, and then a bolt of lightning broke through the roof of the cave and struck directly on Cuo Laomo.
The development of things was similar to before. The devil in front of him resisted with his body, and when he was injured, he recovered with the help of the blood collected below.
