Leaves don't turn yellow in one day.
Three feet of ice cannot be frozen in one day.
The great rout of the Fox Book Demon Alliance's migration team was not caused in a day or two. Floods are just one of the causes.
What's more important is that the migration team of the Fox Book Demon Alliance is too weak to stand up and establish roots after they first arrive.
A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake.
In the end, faced with natural disasters that the demon power was unable to contend with, it completely fell apart and failed.
The afternoon when the three demons finished their discussion.
The temporary camp was officially disbanded, and the team of more than 2,000 monsters paid their membership fees to Youzhai and entered it in batches.
Those who were in a better situation, the demon people who had some supplies scattered into the area where low-level monsters lived in Youzhai, while the penniless ones were simply sold to the demon group as slaves.
Whether it's mining or iron smelting, it's better than staying outside the village and waiting to die.
To put it bluntly, in the face of the raging floods, the monsters in the temporary camp have already been distracted, and most of the monsters are eager to disband the migration team.
The huge stone wall in Youzhai is now the separation between life and death.
Those who enter live, those who escape die.
It is naturally easier for monsters with good strength such as Su Changsheng to enter the monster village.
It's just that due to some reasons, it's best not to continue contacting him for the time being after entering, to prevent the upper management of Youzhai from getting upset.
Due to Huang Xian's factors, Bai Ling entered the inner core of Youzhai.
Due to the effect of the 'silence talisman', Su Changsheng also expressed his desire to follow, but was rejected by Huang Xian.
It is said that it is very troublesome for medium and low-level monsters to enter the core area of Youzhai, and they need shelter places. And since it only had one asylum quota, it could only temporarily aggrieve Su Changsheng.
He also told him that he only needed to wait quietly outside Youzhai, wait for the flood to pass, and wait for the Fox Book Demon Alliance headquarters to react.
There will still be a day when the four beams and eight pillars of the Fox Book Demon Alliance will be re-established, and then Bai Ling can be seen.
On the surface, Su Changsheng was extremely reluctant to give up on this, but in his heart, he was scornful.
These two guys obviously have other factors, and they always feel like they are running away.
As for following...he wished he could stay far away from these two scammers.
It’s okay to leave!
…
Within Youzhai
An area near the huge city wall, similar to a shanty town, was where Su Changsheng temporarily settled.
When you first enter Youzhai and are unfamiliar with the place, try to choose such a marginalized place to settle down.
At this time, keep a low profile if you can.
Regardless of the huge city wall next to Youzhai, it is a very marginalized area. But it's a mixed bag of fish and dragons. There are second- and third-level monsters making a living here, and there are also fifth- and sixth-level monsters making their home here.
The ingredients are complex and the flow is extremely frequent. In addition to being slightly less safe, it is extremely suitable for living and hiding.
The governance models of Youzhai and Heishan Demon Village are different. The entire Youzhai area of nearly 10,000 acres is surrounded by a huge stone wall about 100 meters high.
On top of the city wall, there are many demon groups guarding the city, arranged around. Within the city wall, about two-thirds of the area is blocked by a slightly smaller city wall, which is the core area of Youzhai.
Sometimes they are also distinguished by outer ring and inner ring.
Only monsters who have reached a high level can enter the inner ring, which is also where the major monster groups reside.
Although the inner ring is safer, it is heavily guarded. The identity of every monster will be checked repeatedly, and the level is extremely strict.
Not suitable for living or hiding.
The outer ring is much simpler.
Although the territory here is only one-third of the entire Youzhai, it is still large enough, and middle and low-level demon clans live here.
After all, there are not as many monsters living in Youzhai as there are in Black Mountain Monster Village. Even though the outer ring area is only three to four thousand acres in size, it still looks extremely empty and desolate.
The monsters prefer to build their houses near the huge stone wall, because there are often monsters patrolling the city wall. It is said that the stone wall was built by King Zhou Hu himself using the magical power of moving mountains, and it contains the aura of big monsters.
Therefore, compared to other open areas in the outer ring, the demon people in Youzhai believe that it is safer to be closer to the city wall.
As for the authenticity, it is unknown.
Su Changsheng had already found out that this section of the city wall, an arc-shaped area of approximately three thousand meters, was managed by a small demon group called the Bear and Wolf Demon Group.
There are two level 6 monsters, four level 5 monsters, and quite a few level 3 and 4 monsters in the monster group.
It can be seen from this that although the number of demon clan in You Village is not as high as that of Black Mountain Demon Village, their overall strength is much higher.
Perhaps it is also because there is an intermediate area in the Black Mountain Demon Village, and it is rare to see level 4, 5, and 6 people in the outer layer.
When the bear and wolf demon group faced Su Changsheng's arrival, although they were a little frightened by his size, they did not stop him.
There is no prohibition on movement in the outer ring of Youzhai, and no monsters are recorded in the houses. As long as you pay enough share money, or it is called 'rent', then you can move and live wherever you want.
Even some areas managed by small monster groups would like to have level 5 and 6 monsters living there, because this represents stability and safety.
It can attract more demon people and wise wild demons choose to migrate there, and then collect enough rent.
As for the migrating monsters, what if you encounter a monster that is too powerful?
Don't worry about that.
All the small demon groups have their backs to the large demon group in the inner circle. For example, the Bear and Wolf Demon Alliance has their backs to the wolves, and they have to make offerings to the wolves every month.
The responsibility of the wolves is to suppress all dissatisfaction and possible dangers.
Over time, no matter how unruly the demon clan is, they will not easily offend the little demons in their place of residence. Countless bloody examples have proven this.
in this way,
Su Changsheng completely settled here, and the price he paid was one hundred kilograms of blood food every month.
Not a lot but not too much.
Because he was so big, the house he lived in was also an oversized wooden house. Although it was a little simpler, it was still many times better than the short stone house he once lived in.
In my own home, I can finally straighten up.
You really get what you pay for.
"Bai Ling and Huang Xian left in such a hurry, even disbanding the Fox Book Demon Alliance immediately. It is possible that some unknown situation occurred."
"Perhaps there is another problem with the three great demons, or maybe Bai Ling's identity has been revealed by some beings..."
"In short, no matter what happened, it is a good thing that I can easily get away from them temporarily."
Su Changsheng looked at the continuous rainstorm outside and felt relieved.
Although relying on the Fox Book Demon Alliance can quickly improve one's strength, it is too dangerous after all.
Moreover, the situation was developing so suddenly that even if he wanted to stay in the Fox Book Demon Alliance, he would not be able to do so.
After all, Bai Ling doesn't want to play with him anymore, and he can't contact the headquarters of the Fox Book Demon Alliance, so let's leave it at that for now.
Furthermore, with his stability-seeking mentality, he actually prefers to practice quietly by himself, instead of worrying all day long, for fear that at some point he will reveal his flaws and something will go wrong.
"However, the identity of the half-demon black snake needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. I will go to the demon market here tomorrow to have a look. If there is a suitable enchantment, I will find a way to capture it."
Speaking of sorcery, Su Changsheng looked at a scroll in his hand. This is the stone demon magic that Bai Ling said was passed down from the Black Mountain Demon King, and was left to him by Huang Xian before leaving.
He had already purified it with the purification rune, and there was no danger on the scroll. But out of caution, he still used the concealment talisman to cover it, and then wrapped it with his own ice power.
When he completely gave up his identity as a half-demon black snake, he looked for an opportunity and threw this thing away. As for now, he has no intention of opening this animal skin scroll.
Finally, there is the issue of the identity of the half-demon black snake. The reason why Bai Ling still acted under this identity after she left was because she didn't want to arouse Bai Ling's vigilance.
The situation is unclear at the moment. Wouldn't it be very troublesome if the latter suddenly came back to look for him and found that he disappeared after entering Youzhai.
Therefore, even if you deal with the identity of the half-demon black snake, you can't rush it. You need to find a suitable and appropriate time.
"Level 7, maybe. After being promoted to level 7, it may be time for you to completely change your appearance and live in another way."
Su Changsheng gradually had a plan in mind.
…
The following days.
The rain kept falling and never stopped.
As time went by, the Heishan River flooded the entire Youzhai Plain again and again.
Even though Youzhai has the highest terrain and is at the commanding heights of this huge plain basin, not long after leaving Youzhai, it is already a vast and boundless land.
At this time, the connection between You Village and Heishan Demon Village has been completely severed. It seems that due to the influence of the vast waters outside the village, even the communication methods using some mysterious magical powers and strange objects have failed.
At this point, both You Village and Heishan Demon Village have become isolated islands in the true sense. This is true both from an information level and from a geographical perspective.
However, at the moment when the information between the two villages was finally cut off, some information was transmitted.
It is said that the situation in the Black Mountain Monster Village is very bad. Not only did it suffer several large-scale flash floods, but the insect swarm also took the opportunity to break through the blockade of the two big monsters.
Now it has spread to the vicinity of the Black Mountain Demon Village, and the two big demons have also withdrawn from the front line into the Demon Village, relying on the defensive measures set up by the Demon Village in advance to resist the attack of the insect swarm.
The situation there is more complicated, with heavy rains, insect swarms, flash floods, lack of resources, and misguided sorcery, and 'people' are hidden in it.
With the combination of various factors and the isolation and helplessness, it may only be a matter of time before the Black Mountain Demon Village collapses.
This flood, which no one expected, will eventually be the straw that breaks the camel's back.
No one is immune.
Of course, this is information many days ago. As for the current situation of the Black Mountain Demon Village, it is unknown.
Su Changsheng paid no attention to this.
Now is a rare peaceful time, and all eyes are blocked and attracted by this heavy rain.
Even if there are many conspiracies and conspiracies surrounding it, it is no longer important in the face of huge natural crises such as floods.
During this period, Bai Ling and Huang Xian never showed up. Since their last separation, after they entered the core area of Youzhai, they completely disappeared, as if they had never appeared before.
Su Changsheng was not disturbed by these external objects. He lives in seclusion every day, immersed in cultivation and cannot extricate himself. Apart from occasionally going to the demon market to exchange some supplies, he has nothing else to do.
In a daze, it seemed that he had returned to his original training years in the Half Demon Land. This also allowed the cultivation progress that had lagged due to various factors some time ago to be picked up again.
The mentality becomes more and more stable.
Great progress has been made in various aspects of Qi, blood and demonic power, and various demonic skills and rune studies are also progressing in an orderly manner.
Fast forward to two months later.
It's raining again tonight.
Su Changsheng leaned against the door with a worried look on his face.
"It's starting to rain again!"
During this period of time, the heavy rain has been intermittent, but it has no intention of stopping completely.
The last heavy rain was seven days ago. At that time, he thought the rain was going to end, but who could have imagined that the heavy rain would hit again today.
The flood outside Youzhai has not receded, or even dropped a few meters, before it slowly grew again, like an approaching army, oppressing the hearts of the monsters in Youzhai.
Almost unable to breathe.
In two months, due to attacks by aberrations and monsters in the water, as well as sneak attacks by some strange things hidden in the water, all the demon groups in Youzhai lost manpower one after another.
Every day there is information about the death of level 6 monsters, and occasionally even level 7 monsters die for no apparent reason.
Even the area where Su Changsheng was located was attacked by a powerful monster. Although it was finally suppressed by the bear and wolf demon group, it also caused considerable damage.
But the demon street where it is located has not been desolate, it is even more prosperous.
Because Youzhai absorbed many intelligent wild monsters in the wilderness and turned them into ordinary monster people. Therefore, although the number of demon people in Youzhai suffered huge losses in the flood, it did not decrease but increased.
The arrival of the flood will have the greatest impact on the wild monsters living underground in the wilderness, and countless people will die.
Some wild monsters fled further away, hoping to leave this plain. Some guys who were born with wisdom took advantage of the convenient opening of Youzhai and entered the village.
As for why Youzhai wants to attract these wild monsters, the fundamental reason is that in the face of the flood, there is a serious shortage of manpower, and the major monster groups are already exhausted to deal with it.
Reinforcing the city walls, surveying the surrounding areas, detecting floods, even daily patrols, providing talent materials, etc., all require a large number of low-level monsters.
Especially talent materials.
As an alchemy, you can create some kind of precious runes, or even things needed for the daily cultivation of high-level monsters. Once they are in short supply, the stability of the entire Youzhai will be shaken.
In the fight against natural disasters, quantity is more important than quality.
As for the basic necessities of the demonic people at the bottom, it doesn’t really matter.
There are a large number of aberrant monsters and various strange beasts in the swamp, and the lower-level monsters can just go out and hunt them.
Besides, there are more than a dozen blood beasts in Youzhai, which can produce enough blood food every day. Although food is still in short supply, at this juncture, it is no longer the most important material.
These are omitted for now.
In the past two months, Su Changsheng has successively upgraded the Green Snake Breathing Technique and the Right of Life and Death to the Great Success and Lesser Success levels.
After the Green Snake Breathing Technique was completed, it did not derive any new abilities. It only more than tripled the abilities of the small ones.
The effect of warming and nourishing the spirit is also slightly enhanced.
At this moment, he can convert nearly fifty points of realm experience every hour, and at the same time, he absorbs a lot of spiritual energy, which to a certain extent reduces the body's demand for blood food.
However, if you want to practice quickly, you still need a large supply of blood food. This may be difficult to change after being promoted to a great demon.
As for the right to life and death.
The power of life and death after Xiao Cheng not only officially increased his standing height to 18 meters, but also exceeded the 30-meter mark in total length, it also made his bloodline more refined again.
The bulging spine snake bones on the back are becoming more and more obvious. If it is not covered up by mirage, it will look like a fire dragon entrenched in it.
Very mighty.
And quite eye-catching!
The power of life and death at the Xiaocheng level also produces a whirlpool of spiritual energy similar to the mirage technique, which still attracts black blood.
This shattered his previous speculation that black blood was human nature, and the hypothesis that mirage magic and the right of life and death corresponded to human nature and demon nature respectively.
"Perhaps all the misguided magic will eventually attract the appearance of those black bloods... What exactly is this black blood?"
Su Changsheng thought for a while, and finally shook his head helplessly.
It doesn't matter what the black blood is. The most important thing right now is how to find the demonic nature to break through to the seventh level.
Neither the right of life and death nor the Green Snake Breathing Method can help him. Is the only way to take contemplation?
In fact, during this period of time, he had also studied the method of visualization and was even quite proficient in it.
The Dacheng-level Green Snake Breathing Technique can quickly restore his mental thoughts, which is very useful for the visualization method that consumes mental energy to depict the visualized objects.
But it is a pity that when he tried to visualize the sun, or even visualized the huge green snake in the green snake's breath, he suffered a nervous breakdown in the early stages of the painting.
It seems that with the strength of his spiritual consciousness, he is completely unable to withstand these two kinds of visualization objects.
"The things in the memory of the past life are not enough. Can I only choose to visualize the White Lady?"
"Where is the opportunity for level seven?"
Su Changsheng sighed.
This situation was completely unexpected by him. Who would have thought that the visualization method also has specific requirements for the objects to be visualized, which must not exceed the limit that the practitioner's consciousness can bear.
Thinking about it carefully, there is no solution.
He had no choice but to stop thinking temporarily and use today's shed talisman, hair removal talisman, and hard skin talisman one by one, and prepare to continue practicing the breathing method.
But the next moment,
Under the skin, there was a sudden surging throbbing, and a numbing feeling suddenly poured into my heart.
Three to five seconds later, like countless moths gnawing away, heart-wrenching pain accompanied by an unbearable tearing sensation surged in like a tidal wave.
His brain was experiencing bouts of dizziness, as if he was about to fall into a deep sleep at any time. Surprisingly, after being promoted to an intermediate monster, he never experienced hibernation again!
"This is... about to shed!"
"The third molting period!"
Su Changsheng was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened and his heart beat violently.
It has been nearly two years since he shed his skin for the second time. During this period, he has been promoted all the way to the seventh level.
The proficient-level shedding talisman, hair removal talisman, hard-skin talisman, etc. have never been forgotten and have been used all the time.
There are also bloodline promotions and talent regeneration. Due to various circumstances, the third molt did not come for a long time.
But I didn't expect that today, this ordinary day, the thing I had always wanted but couldn't ask for would come unexpectedly.
The third molt!
perhaps……
This will also be a real opportunity for him to be promoted to the seventh-level demon clan!
A monstrous creation of snakes!
