Directional teleportation talismans can be used this way?! The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain were dumbfounded as they watched the Silver Ring Heavenly King Worms being forcibly teleported away.

The desperate look in the eyes of the Silver Ring Heavenly King Worms was especially memorable.

It was obvious what the fate of this Nascent Soul Stage demon would be.

The rules set by the Demon Subjugation Pass were clear: anyone below the Unity Stage who approached the pass would die. Even though a Nascent Soul Stage demon was formidable, it stood no chance against the colossal Demon Subjugation Pass.

Huh? Isnt this the obvious way to use it? Lu Yang was surprised. He had thought that only demonic beasts lacked the brains to figure this out, but it seemed the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain couldnt think of it either.

Just look at Meng Jingzhou; he figured it out in an instant.

Are there really so many Golden Core Nascent Soul Stage demonic beasts in the forest? Lu Yang thought about the encounters over the past few days. Besides those deliberately seeking them out, there were quite a few roaming demonic beasts they encountered, all of which were at the Golden Core Stage.

Tonight was even more absurd, with a Nascent Soul Stage demonic beast showing up.

Fortunately, Meng Jingzhou had a directional teleportation talisman to send the Silver Ring Heavenly King Worms to the Demon Subjugation Pass; otherwise, Lu Yang would have had to use the Eldest Senior Sister Shape-Imitating Fist.

The hook-nosed leader shook his head. Impossible. In this forest, whether its humans or demons, the majority are at the Foundation Building Stage. If it were really like now, encountering several Golden Core Stage demonic beasts in ambush, no one would dare come here.

Lu Yang thought about it and agreed. The demonic beasts were unlucky to run into their group, but any other Foundation Building Stage cultivators would have been dead by now.

It must be because the two young heroes have killed too many demonic beasts, attracting their attention with your scent, the hook-nosed leader analyzed.

He sighed inwardly. The five of them, at the late Foundation Building Stage, struggled to fight against demons of the same level. Yet, the two young heroes could kill early to mid Golden Core Stage demonic beasts as easily as chopping vegetables.

The difference was stark.

I suggest we return to the city at dawn when the gates open, get some rest, change clothes, and wash off the scent.

Lu Yang nodded. The hook-nosed leaders suggestion was reasonable. For the past few days, the seven of them had been on edge, either fighting or on their way to fight. The mental strain was enormous.

Although his mental strength far surpassed that of others in the same stage and shouldnt deplete so quickly, Meng Jingzhou and the Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain felt exhausted. He shouldnt normally feel tired.

But who could blame him for having an Everlasting Fairy in his spiritual space causing trouble every day? Lu Yang had to allocate a portion of his mental strength to deal with the Everlasting Fairy and listen to some ancient legends.

The ancient legends included but were not limited to: the rivalry and jealousy between the prodigies of the dragon and phoenix clans, the Qilin Immortal fleeing overseas due to a harem of fire and being nicknamed the Fire Qilin, Ying Tian Immortal calling for fewer fights to elevate the status of immortals, the Immemorial Immortal suffering through Everlasting Fairys meals and comprehending the theory of relativity, and Nonuple Immortal proving himself as the first immortal through academic papers and leading archaeological digs to establish his legitimacy.

Honestly, these were all valuable ancient legends related to immortals and could fetch a sky-high price at auctions.

If those old scholars who studied ancient history heard them, they would probably be too excited to sleep. The information contained in these stories was enough to overturn current understandings of ancient times.

But for Lu Yang, he was very worried that one day he might wake up to find the Four Immortals of ancient times standing beside him, looking down with sinister smiles, saying, You know too much, you must die now.

He didnt have the Everlasting ariya-phala.

Optimistically speaking, if Eldest Senior Sister arrived in time, she could at least collect his corpse.

Lu Yang expressed his worries to the Everlasting Fairy, who remained nonchalant: Oh, Ying Tian Immortal and the others are kind and easy-going. They wont deal with you like that. Look at me, even though I know so much, Im still living well, arent I?

Lu Yang silently looked at the soul form of the Everlasting Fairy, wanting to remind her that she had been dead for over 300,000 years and had just been revived two months ago.

After these days of fierce battles, both Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had significantly improved their combat experience, becoming increasingly adept at delivering lethal blows.

Their cultivation was also steadily progressing, consolidating their late Foundation Building stage and slowly advancing toward the Golden Core stage.

Why do I feel like your combat experience is richer than mine? Meng Jingzhou was surprised, thinking it wasnt just his imagination.

Lu Yang replied expressionlessly, If you were beaten by our senior brothers and sisters from night till morning, your combat experience would improve too.

Lu Yang still remembered that while he was getting beaten, this guy was clapping and cheering from the sidelines.

Meng Jingzhou seemed thoughtful: Does it really work that way?

Having never been inferior to anyone, he couldnt afford to lose to Lu Yang in terms of combat experience.

The nights rest was not peaceful; they were still ambushed by a Golden Core stage demon beast, which Meng Jingzhou, on night watch, beat to death with a flurry of punches.

It was a rabbit about the size of a domestic pig, with two large buck teeth three or four inches long, and eyes as red as rubies.

Are we really so hated? We cant even rest at night! Meng Jingzhou angrily kicked the rabbit demon. During the fight, he had been distracted, and the rabbit had gnawed a bit of his hair.

Fortunately, he had already practiced body refinement to the extent that even his hair was protected, so he escaped unscathed.

The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain couldnt explain it either, as they had little experience and had never seen anyone hunt demon beasts so relentlessly: It really shouldnt be like this. Logically, this is the outskirts of the forest, and there shouldnt be so many Golden Core stage demon beasts. Its not worth it for them to come here.

Forget it, lets discuss this when we get back. Lu Yang called everyone to return to the Demon Subjugation Pass to rest.

When they returned to the Demon Subjugation Pass, they heard people at the city gate talking.

Did you hear? Last night, a Nascent Soul stage demon tried to sneak attack the Demon Subjugation Pass under the cover of darkness but was slapped to death by a Spirit Transformation stage expert on night watch.

Really? Was the demon drunk? A Nascent Soul stage daring to attack?

The Demon Subjugation Pass, being one of the six cities guarding the border with the demon domain, couldnt be breached without several Unity stage cultivators making a move.

However, there had been precedents. A few demons got drunk, ran to the Demon Subjugation Pass to test their courage. The lucky ones were chased away; the unlucky ones ended up in the pot the next day, with the whole city feasting.

Of course, its true. Havent you noticed there are more guards today than yesterday? The higher-ups suspect that the demon clan might be planning something big, sending a scapegoat to test our defenses!

Are we going to fight again?

Unlikely, its probably just a test.

Theres also an unreliable rumor.

What is it?

They say that the demon was sent over with a directional teleportation talisman.

Really? Can directional teleportation talismans be used that way?

Thats why I said its an unreliable rumor.

So, can we have a good meal today? The Demon Subjugation Pass often distributed the meat of the demon beasts killed at the gate to everyone.

I doubt it.

Why?

The one that died was an earthworm demon. How do you eat that?

In his mental space, the Everlasting Fairy was surprised: Hey, dont you guys eat earthworms here?

Fairy, do you hear yourself?
