"What's going on?" Li Xiu saw something was wrong with Chu Jun's expression and asked quickly.
Chu Jun stammered: "I sensed... sensed... that there are many S-class demon spirits here..."
"Here? Outside the courtyard?" Li Xiu looked around, but found nothing.
"No... just... right here..." Chu Jun pointed to the main hall where they were, and then pointed to the courtyard outside, and said incoherently: "Here... and outside... are all filled with demons... Many...many...can't sense the level...can't sense the name either..."
Hearing what Chu Jun said, Li Xiu felt a chill in his heart. His first reaction was that there were many demon spirits that they couldn't see. They were in the main hall and courtyard now. Maybe there were invisible demon spirits spreading now. The mouth showed bloody fangs, ready to swallow his head.
Thinking of this, Li Xiu got goosebumps all over his body, and he summoned all the demon spirits he could summon without hesitation.
Various demon spirits formed a circle, surrounding him and Lord Chu in the middle.
The two people kept looking around the gloomy hall, but they couldn't see anything or hear any sound.
"How many demon spirits are there? Where are they? Can they be detected?" Li Xiu kept searching with his eyes and his ears perked up, but still found nothing, no clue at all.
This made Li Xiu even more uneasy. He believed in Chu Jun, and Chu Jun had never let him down. Chu Jun said that there were so many demon spirits, so there must be them, but where were those demon spirits?
"I don't know, there are so many, so many that I can't count them. They seem to be everywhere..." Chu Jun sensed them over and over again, but the results he got were the same.

"Many...too many to count...everywhere..." Li Xiu seemed to have thought of something, and his face was a little ugly: "I'm afraid we are really in trouble this time. Use your light energy to protect your body. do not stop."
Although Chu Jun didn't understand why Li Xiu said that, he immediately did what Li Xiu said.
The white lotus light with bloody light can appear on Chu Jun, making Chu Jun's body exude a glowing light.
Li Xiu's body has also emitted white fluorescence, which is the light energy of the forbidden gun.
"What's going on? What did you find?" Chu Jun asked.
"Many demon spirits are everywhere but invisible. There is only one possibility. Those demon spirits are as tiny as bacteria, so small that we can't even see them with our naked eyes. I suspect that those people are not possessed by demon spirits at all. They were bitten to death, and they were probably eaten away bit by bit by those invisible tiny demon spirits." Li Xiu expressed his guess.
Chu Jun was horrified to hear this. If it was like what Li Xiu said, when they didn't use light energy to protect their bodies, wouldn't it be because those invisible demon spirits got into their bodies? It gnaws at their insides.
"No, I didn't sense the existence of demon spirits in our bodies." Chu Jun realized that there was a flaw in Li Xiu's speculation.
If there really was a demon spirit that had gotten into their bodies, he should be able to sense it, but he didn't feel the presence of the demon spirit in his body.
"If there are none in our bodies, it means that those tiny demon spirits cannot directly invade our bodies, or they may invade our bodies and put themselves in danger. But they will definitely have an opportunity to invade, otherwise Those trialists who entered here before us will not die." Li Xiu muttered.
"What is that opportunity?" Chu Jun couldn't figure it out.
"I don't know either." Although Li Xiu speculated that those tiny demon spirits should not be able to harm their bodies for the time being, they still maintained the light energy on their bodies. There was no harm in being careful.
He took back his demon spirits. Those demon spirits were no longer useful. No matter how strong they were, they could not fight against demon spirits as small as bacteria.
Li Xiu's eyes fell on the corpse in the main hall, and he looked at the wounds of the corpse again.
After watching for a while, Li Xiu suddenly came closer and looked at it carefully again, his expression becoming increasingly weird.
"Did you find anything?" Chu Jun followed and looked at it for a while before finding anything wrong.
"It seems that there is something wrong with my previous speculation. These trialists were not swallowed to death by those tiny demon spirits." Li Xiu said in a deep voice.
Chu Jun let out a long sigh of relief when he heard this. If he had to choose, he would rather encounter those monsters that were too powerful for him to defeat, rather than face those enemies that were so small that he couldn't even see them.
The unknown is what scares the most, and things that cannot be seen are even more frightening.
"It's okay if it's not, then how did they die?" Chu Jun asked.
"They were bitten to death. I originally thought they were bitten to death by demon spirits, but now after looking carefully, I realized that maybe it wasn't the demon spirits that bit them to death. The injuries on their bodies looked more like they were bitten to death by demon spirits. Bite by human teeth..."
The goosebumps on Chu Jun's body instantly exploded. His teeth chattered and he forced a smile and said: "Impossible, how can a person bite someone? And bite them like this, are they crazy?"
"Maybe they are really crazy. What I just meant was that they were not cannibalized to death by those tiny demon spirits, but I did not say that those tiny demon spirits did not exist. Maybe it is because of their existence that It infected these humans like a virus and turned them into flesh-eating monsters, eating each other, leading to the current situation..." Li Xiu said slowly.
Chu Jun's spine went cold when he heard this: "Then will we..."
"Yes." Before Chu Jun finished speaking, Li Xiu answered firmly.
"How can you be sure that we will become like that... There is nothing wrong with us not being in good health now... Maybe we are much stronger than those trialists... Our physique and light energy are enough to withstand those virus monsters you mentioned ..." Chu Jun didn't really want to refute Li Xiu, he was just comforting himself.
"As long as we can't get out, that's the inevitable result. In fact, if we really don't get out, even if those virus-like monsters don't turn us into flesh-eating monsters, we will starve to death here." Li Xiu said lightly. Said plainly.
"That's right, but I would rather starve to death than become that kind of monster." Chu Jun said with a bitter smile.
"If you don't want to die, you have to find a way back." Li Xiu said as he summoned the pink dream demon and rode it into the yard, observing the dead bodies in the yard.
Chu Jun wanted to follow him out, but was stopped by Li Xiu.
"Don't come out. There are blood stains everywhere outside. The way the virus demons invaded may also be spread through blood." Li Xiu said.
Chu Jun quickly stopped and looked at Li Xiu in the hall.
Li Xiu didn't want to come out, but there was no good way. He had to find a way to go back, otherwise both of them would die sooner or later.
The pink dream demon walked through the courtyard on blood stains and headed towards the courtyard door.
"Have you sensed the presence of demonic spirits on the pink dream demon?" Li Xiu asked as he walked.
"No, I didn't sense any demonic spirit in the pink dream demon's body." Chu Jun replied quickly.
Li Xiu was glad that he brought Chu Jun in, otherwise he would have died without knowing how.
When he came to the courtyard gate, the gate was open. Li Xiu took a look outside and saw that it was a square. There were more corpses in the square, which made Li Xiu very strange.
Judging from the condition of these corpses, they could not have been dead for too long, only a year and a half at most. Some corpses looked like they had only been dead for a month or two.
Judging from the time, these trialists are probably those brought in by Boss Qiu, but how come so many people have entered the trial place?
Could it be that they all have the ability to complete the final trial? Even if they all have the ability to complete the final trial, are they all so lucky that they just happened to get the tickets randomly?
Li Xiu doesn't believe that there are so many lucky people, unless the rewards of the Golden Gate Trial Ground are easy to get the tickets, or it is inevitable to get the tickets.
Li Xiu had previously wondered why there were no conventional rewards such as attributes and magic cores among the rewards. Now it seems that it was probably to increase the probability of the tickets appearing.
Li Xiu didn't know why this trial ground was so special, but he had no intention of thinking about it anymore. He had to find a way to go back.
After riding the pink dream monster out of the yard, Li Xiu discovered that this was indeed a place similar to a temple.
The courtyard they were in was the left courtyard of this temple-like building. On the opposite side of the square, there was a corresponding right courtyard.
Directly opposite the square, there is a more magnificent temple, which must be the main hall here.
Unfortunately, the doors to the right courtyard and the main hall are tightly closed, and I don't know if there is anything inside.
Opposite the main hall is a closed door. It should be the door leading outside the temple. Naturally, Li Xiu will not open that door.
The temple should be a place similar to the Black Death City. When he is in the temple, the eternal lamp will still follow him. If he leaves the temple, the eternal lamp may not follow him anymore, and it will be even harder to get out.
Although Li Xiu speculated that all trial places are connected, and if you go to other trial places, you may have a chance to go back, but who knows how long it will take to reach other trial places? Who knows how many terrifying and unknown monsters there will be on the road?
Rather than fighting for that illusory hope, it is better to find a way to return alive here. At least they already know that there is a kind of demon spirit that is so small that it is invisible everywhere.
After carefully searching the square, Li Xiu found that this temple was very strange.
Generally, temples will have many mysterious symbols or patterns, or statues and pictures.
But there is nothing here, no matter in the left courtyard or the right courtyard, or even on the central hall, there is not even a plaque.
Forget about the words, apart from the statues of gods we saw before, there aren’t even any murals.
Only outside the door of the central hall, there are two gatekeeper beasts on one left and one on the right, just like a pair of stone lions that were often placed in front of the gates of large mansions in ancient times.
But unlike the stone lions, these two gatekeeper beasts curled their bodies and lay on the ground end to end, looking like they were sleeping.
"There are no other demons. Could it be that those virus demons need to be eliminated? As long as they are eliminated, we can use the longevity lamp to go back?" Li Xiu thought to himself: "How can we kill those virus demons? "
"If it's just an ordinary virus, it can be solved with high temperature or alcohol or disinfectant, but these are demon spirits. If you have magic equipment, you can use high-power magic light to kill them. But as a As a trialer, the light energy level in my body is not high, and the range of radiation is also limited. Even if I can kill some of the virus demons, it is difficult to kill them all..." Li Xiu thought about it, but it wasn't too good. The only way is to try it first.
He returned to the left courtyard, where the demon spirits were densest, and Li Xiu summoned the Jedi Knights.
The B-level Jedi Knight is considered the most powerful warrior in Li Xiu's hands, and his light energy is also the strongest.
"Jun Chu, let's do a test. I'll ask the Jedi to release the Blood Light Slash. You can carefully sense whether the demon spirits have decreased where the Blood Light Slash passes." After Li Xiu warned Chu Jun, he asked the Jedi to Released the Blood Light Slash.
A crescent-shaped blood-colored sword light struck out, crossed a distance of dozens of meters, and struck the wall of the courtyard, leaving a deep mark on the wall before it completely dissipated.
The Jedi Knight's current Blood Light Slash is obviously much stronger than when it was C-level.
"No, those demon spirits have not decreased." Seeing Li Xiu look over, Chu Jun said with a wry smile.
"It has no effect at all?" Li Xiu asked with a frown.
"Even if it has an effect, it is minimal. At least I didn't feel a large number of demon spirits disappearing." Chu Jun replied.
"Then there is some trouble. The demon spirits that cannot be destroyed by light energy mean that the light energy on our bodies is probably useless and cannot resist their invasion." While Li Xiu was thinking to himself, he suddenly heard a howl from outside. Call.
Ouch!
A sound like a howling wolf came from outside. Li Xiu rushed to the courtyard door and looked outside. He was slightly startled when he saw the situation outside clearly.
I don't know when, the statues of the two gatekeeper beasts in front of the main hall door actually stood up, turned into a posture of looking up at the sky, and roared like hungry wolves.
Their eyes were flashing with red blood, as if they were staring at the sky.
"Blood moon!" Li Xiu followed their gazes, and at some point, the moon hanging in the sky turned blood-colored.
The blood-like moonlight fell down, giving the already eerie temple a layer of blood light, making it even more eerie.
Li Xiu was horrified to find that under the bloody moonlight, there seemed to be countless red light spots surging in the air inside the temple.
Those extremely tiny blood-colored light spots were almost invisible. If the blood moon hadn't made them fluoresce, they wouldn't have been visible to the naked eye.
They are like a beam of light shining into the darkness. They are like dust particles that can only be seen in the beam. They are dense and countless.
Even if there is light energy to protect the body, people always have to breathe. Between exhalation and inhalation, a large number of red light spots are sucked into the body.
Li Xiu was shocked, and his body exploded with light energy, driving away the dense spots of light. At the same time, he stopped breathing and quickly rushed into the temple in the left courtyard.
Although there are fewer red light spots in the temple, they are still everywhere, and the few ones are almost negligible.
Chu Jun was looking at those light spots with a horrified look on his face. Li Xiu looked at Chu Jun and discovered a strange phenomenon.
Those blood-colored light spots did not even approach Mr. Chu.
"Chu Jun, your white lotus seems to be able to restrain those virus-like demon spirits." Li Xiu reacted immediately.
Chu Jun heard this and quickly summoned the white lotus. He said it was a white lotus, but now it was white inside and red outside, emitting a blood-like red light, which was very similar to the color of those virus monsters.
Chu Jun made the white lotus shine. When the light touched the red dots, a large area of the red dots immediately went out, as if they were burned to ashes by the flames.
Both of them were overjoyed. Chu Jun had never thought that his White Lotus Symbiotic Contract, which only had healing power, could actually kill demon spirits.
He waved the white lotus and rushed to a nearby place with many bloody light spots, and the red light spots went out one after another.
But there were too many blood-colored light spots, and the white lotus' light energy killed one. Immediately, a large number of red light spots came over to fill the previous vacancies. The white lotus could not be burned out no matter how hard it was burned.
"Chu Jun, take the hat." Li Xiu threw his gentleman's hat to Chu Jun.
Chu Jun didn't care much at this time. He directly grabbed the gentleman's hat and put it on. He immediately felt a strange energy filling his body, as if he had taken stimulants. His whole body had endless power, and the light on the white lotus also changed. Much stronger.
If it could only be regarded as a torch just now, the flames on the white lotus are now like a bonfire.
Chu Jun relied on the light of the white lotus to burn the red dots around him, and large areas of the red dots were turned into ashes.
"Get on the horse, let's rush out." Li Xiu saw that the red dots could not be burned out no matter how hard he burned, and knew that continuing like this was not the answer. He needed to solve the root cause of the problem.
Chu Junfei mounted the horse, Li Xiu clamped his legs, and the pink dream demon hissed, charging into the dense red light spots, rushing out of the yard and rushing towards the two gatekeeper statues looking up to the sky and howling at the entrance of the main hall.
Li Xiu guessed that they were the source of these virus demons. Only by killing them could these virus demons be truly eliminated.
The closer to the gatekeeper beast, the more red light spots in the air. Li Xiu could no longer hold his breath, so he could only intensify the light energy on his body. He stopped holding his breath, and inhaled a large amount of it between breaths and breaths. red light spot.
Li Xiu couldn't see it himself, but his eyes were already filled with red bloodshot eyes. Each of those bloodshot eyes was emitting blood-colored fluorescence, making Li Xiu's eyes look extremely strange.
"Li Xiu, your eyes!" Chu Jun was shocked when he saw Li Xiu's eyes.
Even though he was wearing the Dark Mirror, he could still see Li Xiu's eyes shining with blood under the black lenses, like a ghost.
Li Xiu had already seen something wrong with his eyes from Chu Jun's eyes, and gritted his teeth and said, "Kill those two guys first."
He pulled out the Fire Lotus Sword, summoned the demigod Setsuna and the Jedi Knight at the same time, and rushed towards the two guardian beast stone statues.
