After putting everything away, Lu Ze could finally take a closer look at the demon general in his arms.
This demon general is no bigger than the palm of your hand and looks a bit like a lizard. Its whole body is bright red, and you can vaguely see some red scales attached to its body.
Lu Ze stretched out his hand and touched the little guy's back. The little guy seemed to feel something. He opened his mouth and curled his tail slightly.
Lu Ze remembered that at the Spiritual Energy Academy, a teacher had introduced the demon general specifically, and also said that the growth cycle of the demon general was very short, and it would take about two or three months to grow up and fight side by side with humans.
It seems that this little guy will be put to use soon.
"A spiritual pet must have a name..."
Lu Ze looked at the little guy in his hand and fell into deep thought.
A few seconds later, he touched the little guy's tail and said, "Although you are very small now, your whole body is as red as the sun in the night. So let's call you... Xiaohong!"
Xiaohong curled her tail, wrapped it around Lu Ze's finger and let go. She didn't know whether he was satisfied with his name.
Lu Ze put Xiao Hong into the lining pocket of his clothes, and then took out the three books of Xuan-level martial arts given by Fu Liang.
With a wave of his hand, the pages of the three martial arts books turned, the spiritual energy rolled up, and the characters gradually appeared.
"Star Sword Technique! A low-grade Xuan-level martial arts skill. This martial skill has been practiced to its peak. When the sword is released, stars are everywhere in the space. Each star is a sword energy. Where the stars are, the sword energy goes!"
"Thunder Spirit Technique! A low-grade Xuan-level martial art. By practicing this martial art, you can turn spiritual energy into thunder and lightning. If the spiritual energy is not exhausted, the thunder will not stop! If you practice to the peak, you may be able to change the celestial phenomena and bring thunder into the world!"
Both of these books were given by Empress Fu Liang, and they were both low-grade Xuan-level books. Lu Ze took a cursory look at them and found that they were okay.
His eyes moved to the last book. Above the martial arts, the aura characters flashed.
"Demon Array! Xuan-level middle-grade martial arts. After practice, one person can form an array. He can drive a certain number of dead demons within the array range for his own use! The stronger the user, the wider the array range, and the range of the array can be controlled. The more monsters there are, the stronger they become!”
"Fu Liang actually has such martial arts skills?"
Lu Ze's eyes lit up. This martial skill was much more interesting than the previous two.
The demons who drive death are used by themselves, and the number and strength of the demons they can drive are linked to their own strength.
If Lu Ze becomes powerful enough in the future, wouldn't he be able to drive the Demon King?
It would be much easier to kill monsters then!
Lu Ze sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes. The training content of the three martial arts flashed through his mind one by one, and his spiritual energy gathered.
After a while, Lu Ze opened his eyes again, and the spiritual energy dissipated in an instant.
[Congratulations to the host, you have learned martial arts: Star Sword Technique, Thunder Spirit Technique, Demon Formation! 】
Lu Ze stood up. It was estimated that Qin Wan and Fu Liang were using all their strength to look for him throughout the city.
He needs to find a place where he can stay for a long time to break through to the fourth level of cultivation.
Lu Ze walked out of the cramped place, under the moonlight, and walked quickly and resolutely in a certain direction.
About ten minutes later, Lu Ze returned to the mountain where he had just hidden to kill the fourth-level monster.
At this time, only this corner of the city was extremely quiet. Looking from the top of the mountain, the corpse of the fourth-level demon was still left under the cliff.
Not far from the corpse, there are still human bones, but Tang Chenyi has disappeared. He must have left with a few of the Tang family members who are still alive.
Lu Ze still returned to the place where he had just hidden, using the pile of rocks to completely cover his body.
This should be regarded as the place in the entire city that people from the Qin family are least likely to find, so it is naturally the safest.
He sat cross-legged and said, "System, add some cultivation, I want to break through to the fourth level!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ze felt a powerful spiritual energy beginning to grow from his abdomen, and then flowed to his limbs.
He slowly closed his eyes and entered a state of trance.
From Lu Ze's side, a spiritual energy slowly swirled and condensed, turning into a spiritual energy shield around him.
Over the city, which was originally as dark as stagnant water, the breeze floated, and the spiritual energy in the air came with the wind and was continuously transported to Lu Ze's body. The spiritual energy in Lu Ze's body continued to rise.
At the critical moment of Lu Ze's breakthrough, a bright red body slowly emerged from Lu Ze's lined pocket.
However, the palm-sized body had just opened its eyes, curiously looked at the world around it, and then raised its head, as if it had sensed something.
As soon as its body swung, it moved slowly and firmly towards Lu Ze's back. After a while, its body climbed onto the horizontal knife slung behind Lu Ze's back.
Xiaohong's four claws clung tightly to the handle of the Hengdao, she closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
Suddenly!
A faint red light flashed from the handle of the horizontal knife. The light was like a human eye. It slowly opened and closed with Lu Ze's breathing, and then closed completely after a few seconds. There was no trace, as if it had never appeared before.
...
The moon sets and the stars are sparse, and the east becomes white.
“It’s been midnight and you haven’t found it yet?!”
Qin Wan's voice became colder and colder, and he glanced at the people who had come back to report, "Keep looking! Check it out inch by inch!"
"yes!"
Several people responded hurriedly, then turned and left.
On the side, Fu Liang no longer looked like he was wailing before. He was sitting leisurely on a chair with his legs crossed and singing a small tune in his mouth.
If you listen carefully, you can vaguely hear the lyrics.
"We, ordinary people, are so, so happy..."
Qin Wan was worried at this time. Listening to Fu Liang's howling, his tone became even colder. Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, "Sing again, and I will cut out your tongue!"
"Oh, look at you like this, what are you doing..."
Fu Liang clicked his tongue, "Your appearance can't help you find the demon general, so why bother? Why not be happy? After all, everyone has been sent out, and sooner or later there will be results."
"Ah."
Qin Wan sneered, "If you hadn't come out to bid, I would have captured the demon general long ago!"
Fu Liang leaned back, his playful smile faded for a moment, and his eyes suddenly turned serious when he looked at Qin Wan, "Qin Wan, are you talking nonsense?"
"You and I are both at the pinnacle of third-level cultivation, and those under you are all third-level masters. A person who can disappear suddenly and silently in front of us without leaving any traces. Qin Wan, why do you think you can get it?" What’s in his hand?”
Qin Wan remained silent. Although his face was still cold, he already knew what was going on.
"I don't blame you for this. Your dad is here. When he sees such a big living person disappearing quietly without arousing any spiritual energy fluctuations, his jaw will probably drop to the ground."
"Fortunately, I don't believe in ghosts and gods. When I saw that little classmate disappear like that last night, I thought gods were appearing."
Fu Liang sighed and looked up at the gradually whitening sky, "Perhaps, this demon general is destined to be that little classmate, and he cannot escape."
"Life?"
Qin Wan raised his eyebrows and smiled sarcastically, "You Fu Liang don't believe in ghosts and gods, but do you believe in fate?"
Fu Liang didn't answer.
Qin Wan closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the coldness on his face and the anger in his eyes were much less, and he was even in the mood to chat with Fu Liang again.
"This matter is indeed unusual. I'm telling you the truth. I don't think anything will happen to my family. But you have been swallowed by three martial arts books, one weapon, and all of them are mysterious. If your father knew about it, haha, I'm afraid your legs would really be broken. Just one."
Fu Liang glanced at Qin Wan strangely, touched his chin, and said, "What? Are you so concerned about me? Are you attracted to me?"
Qin Wan sneered, "Falling in on you? Even if there are no men in this world, I won't fall in love with you."
"Why do you have to say so absolutely? With my appearance, it's not an exaggeration to say that I'm a prostitute from Xuanyuan City. There's nothing wrong with you being attracted to me..."
Fu Liang's teasing words stopped abruptly.
Qin Wan looked at Fu Liang in confusion, and saw the latter standing up, staring at Qin Wan's back with his eyes, and the aura around him was swirling, as if he was about to take action at any time.
Qin Wan also frowned, and just when he turned around, he heard a very charming voice.
"Sister Ah Wan, when did you get so close to Ah Liang? Sister, I don't know at all."
