As the monsters raged, the situation in Yangdu City became increasingly tense. No matter how powerful the Black Peng clan was, it was difficult to escape, so they set up a three-level checkpoint outside Yangdu and posted a big list to summon capable people and strangers to jointly resist the monsters. Since the seal of the Demon Locking Tower was lifted, the lives of the people have been seriously disrupted, which has affected those reclusive people who have no family or sect. Under the heavy reward from Yangdu this time, even if they are used to being idle, they are forced to To make a living, he had to join the ranks of protecting Yangdu.
These individual people were assigned to various corners according to their strength. When they encountered monsters, they worked together to eradicate them. They were not in a hurry at the beginning. As time passed, the monsters were rarely seen. As soon as there were fewer monsters, there were more people. After all, the world was difficult. If they didn't make a living, the whole family would starve to death. Instead of waiting to die slowly, it was better to try their luck and maybe survive with difficulty. Regardless of whether it is "long-term pain" or "short-term pain", as long as there is a glimmer of hope, no one is willing to make any choice between the two.
This strong man was assigned to a remote small pass. Although it was desolate, he was happy and relaxed. In the past, when someone passed by here and saw his ferocious look, they would naturally bribe him, and then hurried away with a grateful bow and nod, which also made him arrogant. Today, he encountered this young man who showed no respect for him, which naturally made him unhappy. He couldn't resist the urge to take action, but luckily he was persuaded by someone in the team.
The strong man was about to say something more taunting, when he suddenly glanced at the money bag in his hand, his expression suddenly changed, and he gave way to let them pass... At this time, his body was shaking, there was unspeakable fear in his eyes, and his teeth were shaking. Collising up and down, I couldn't help but tighten my thin clothes. He turned around cautiously and saw that the group of people had disappeared on the road. Then he felt relieved and left as if running away, regardless of the money bag on the ground...

"Sister Youya, are we going in the wrong direction?" Yu Siling knew the properties of this wooden spirit bead, but the scenery in front of her became more and more desolate along the way, and she couldn't help but have doubts in her heart. Youya pondered for a moment and then shook her head and replied: "It should be right this time, but there is still some distance." The two of them followed the instructions of the Bixi box, but the aura kept appearing and disappearing, and there was no trace of it. Don't let them take detours. Fortunately, the road is flat and there is no need to climb mountains and ridges, so they won't be too tired.
"There is actually a gate on this small road in the wilderness?" You Ya was walking and suddenly found a small road in front of her. There were overgrown weeds on the side of the road. There were also a few footprints on the road. It could also be seen that someone had passed by here recently, but The number of people was small, and the footprints were extremely shallow, as if the person leaving the footprints had no weight, which was very strange.
"Huh?" Just as the two of them were passing by, Youya caught a glimpse of something on the ground. She naturally leaned over to pick it up, only to find that it was just an ordinary money bag. It was covered with many ants and was very dirty, so she had to throw it away. Throw it away, but Yu Siling on the side exclaimed, grabbed the purse, and her expression became serious.
"Sister Xiaobai, what's wrong with you? This purse must have been stained with blood because someone was interested in it. What's the problem?" You Ya didn't know why Hui Siling had such a big reaction.
"No...it's not a matter of bloodstains...Look here..." Youya followed Hui Siling's pointer and saw an eye-shaped symbol on the money bag. She looked left and right and didn't feel anything wrong. Sure, although this symbol was a little weird, it wasn't scary at all, so he asked in confusion: "What's wrong with this symbol...?"
Yu Siling just frowned, not knowing where to start for a while. Although it had never seen such a symbol with its own eyes, as the memory of blood inheritance slowly awakened, some obscure things became clear, including Include this tag. This eye-shaped symbol is called the "Eye of the Demon God" and is a symbol of the demon world. However, the demon world does not exist in this world. The only record is that they came through a certain passage, and a catastrophe followed.
At that time, humans and demon beasts coexisted peacefully in the human world. However, with the appearance of people from the demon world, some demon beasts' personalities changed drastically, and they followed the demons to fight with humans. Fortunately, there were countless powerful humans at that time, and a battle After the war, the coefficient wiped out the demon world, and those monsters were sealed in the Demon Locking Tower. Although on the surface, peace has been restored in the human world, the seeds of hatred are secretly planted in the demon world, taking root and sprouting in places no one knows about.
Moreover, during this war, numerous inheritances of various techniques were lost, all precious places and caves were destroyed, and those great powers were also wiped out in this tragic struggle. Everything that really happened has become a myth and legend, and will never be seen again. People know. There is only thin spiritual energy left in the world, and few people have boundless magic power.
After hearing that the symbols on the money bag were the symbols of the demon world, Youya's expression changed with shock. Although she knew little about the demon world, she had heard about what happened in the Demon Locking Tower, so she naturally knew how dangerous it was, and she couldn't help but worry. Now the symbol of the demon world has reappeared, announcing that the demon world has appeared again. Although we don't know what their purpose is this time, the world may be in trouble again!
Knowing Yuya's concerns, Yu Siling waved her hand and said, "Sister Youya, don't worry, the passage to the devil world cannot be opened casually, and according to my bloodline memory, that passage has been ' It is not easy to unseal the five-color stone seal again... Regardless of whether the guy who left the money bag is from the demon world, they must have come from the Demon Locking Tower!"
As long as the guys who are sealed in the Demon Locking Tower, no matter how strong they were before, they are no longer worth mentioning now, but they don't know it yet. If they were placed in the past, how could these people be theirs? opponent? However, they are weak, but they are only compared to their past. If the guys from the remaining floors of the Demon Locking Tower come out, I am afraid that disaster will really come.
"There are rumors that the Five Elements Cauldron is made of five-color stones, and now the whereabouts of the Five Elements Cauldron are unknown. What I'm worried about is that these people from the demon world have the same purpose as us, to find the five spiritual beads..." Si Ling said with a solemn expression. After receiving so much information, Youya couldn't turn around for a while, and said in a deep voice: "We gathered all the spirit beads to bring back Wu Fan's remnant soul and bring him back to life, but what does this have to do with them..."
"It is said that the five spiritual beads were originally embedded in the Five Elements Cauldron. Although they were separated for unknown reasons, there must be a certain connection between them... Presumably, gathering the five spiritual beads can not only gather the remnants of Wu Fan, but also trigger The resonance of the Five Elements Cauldron, if they find the Five Elements Cauldron through this object and open the passage to the demon world, the world will be devastated..." Originally, Hui Siling did not want to elaborate on these things with You Ya, for fear of bringing her trouble, but now the Demon God The appearance of Zhitong made her dare not hide too much.
After hearing this, You Ya suddenly realized, but her heart became even more urgent. She was even more convinced that the angry shout before was extremely unusual. She didn't want to delay any more, so she picked up Yu Siling and hurried forward...

"Azheng, how many times have I told you not to draw attention to yourself, but why are you taking my words as a deaf ear?" By the stream, an old man looked at the young man in front of him with a smile, but the young man was frightened. Sweating profusely, he half-knelt in front of the old man, not daring to express his anger, and apologized in a low voice: "Master, I saw that human being didn't know how to show appreciation and dared to block your way, so..."
"It doesn't matter if you block the road. As the saying goes: a small impatience will ruin a big plan. If you can't tolerate such a small thing, how can you achieve great things?" The old man said in an understatement, and the young man said yes again and again and said no more. "Besides, when we come out this time, we are acting in secret. Since the Lord asked us to keep quiet, we'd better not do anything casually... Otherwise, the news that the third floor of the Demon Locking Tower is opened will be exposed, and I'm afraid it will be more difficult to act next." Yan Yan After that, the two of them were silent for a while.
Four straight black figures stood in the shadows behind them, but they were very quiet. If you didn't see them with your own eyes, you wouldn't be able to feel their presence. After an unknown amount of time, the old man suddenly moved his thumb, and saw a faint flash of silken light, and another black figure silently fell behind them.
This figure's fatness, thickness, and height are similar to those of the four figures in the shadow. What is slightly different from them is that the four figures in front all have their hands hanging on their sides, but this figure is holding a head in one of his hands. Judging from the appearance of this head, it is somewhat familiar. It is the strong man who blocked the road before!
The facial expression of this head was very frightened and painful, and the wound was still dripping with blood, and it was very rough. It looked like it had been torn off, and it was extremely cruel. However, the old man still had a smile on his face. He glanced at it casually and then lazily He stretched his waist and said calmly: "It's just a pity that the money bag you gave me was thrown away. But not many people know about it, so there is no problem for the time being, that's all... Ah Zheng continues on his way, it's time to I'll take you home and take a look." After saying that, he moved his fingers, and the figures followed behind them and continued to move forward.

"King Black Peng... Yesterday, I discovered the bodies of six more guards during my patrol... and then..." In Yangdu City, a Black Peng tribesman reported the situation in a deep voice. He thought that the recent demon beast turmoil in the Demon Locking Tower had gradually subsided. To calm down, I didn't expect that a guard was killed recently, which caused people to panic.
"But it doesn't matter!" Hein frowned, probably guessing the outcome of the matter.
"The way these guards died was the same as those before. They were torn off their heads and died..." As he expected, although this kind of thing happened often in recent days, he still had a headache when he heard about it again. It was obvious that This was done intentionally, but he couldn't find any trace on the body, which was even more troubling.
"Looking at how weird and cruel the killing method is, could it be that person... no... impossible... that person died a thousand years ago..."
