Not even two minutes after Ye Xiu and Zhao Tianyi entered the dark wetlands, Ye Long's warning voice sounded.
"How strong is he?"
Although Ye Xiu heard that Profound Beast were lurking around, he did not panic. After all, his current cultivation had reached the peak of the Profound Pill Realm, and if he combined it with three other techniques, his strength would not be any weaker than his Profound Infant Stage.
Also, behind Ye Xiu and Zhao Tianyi, there were seven experts with cultivations in the Profound Void Stage. Therefore, even if the Profound Beast they met were not weak and they were not demons, they would still be able to handle it.
"Master, you must be careful of the Level Four Profound Beast!" Ye Long replied.
Level 4 Profound Beast were not powerful, but it was still dangerous for Ye Xiu. That was why Ye Long said to be careful, since this was not a peaceful place, and no one knew the true strength of the Profound Beast.
The more dangerous the place, the higher the level of Profound Beast. The difference in strength was like a human being.
At the same level of cultivation, one person was living the life of a blade, licking blood, while the other person was living the life of luxury. The true strength of those two were absolutely different.
Even if the cultivation of those who lived in the Blood Licking Saber was a bit lower, he could still easily kill those with a higher cultivation than him.
"Zhao Tianyi, don't go so fast. There are Profound Beast ahead."
After Ye Long gave his reminder, Ye Xiu noticed that Zhao Tianyi's speed was a little fast, and he warned her softly.
Towards Zhao Tianyi, Ye Xiu still kept his guard up, the reason being that the other party had the memories of the Demon Lord. If the other party wanted to cause him to fall back to his senses, that would probably not be a difficult matter.
After all, how could it be possible for a devil to not have a powerful Devilish Exercise in its memories, and these Devilish Exercise were even ten or a hundred times stronger than the ones he had cultivated in the past.
Previously, Zhao Tianyi could not bear the temptation and chose to cultivate the Devilish Exercise, so even after going through a lesson, there was still a big problem with his endurance.
Regarding all of these, Ye Xiu did not tell Zhao Zixiong, but the moment Zhao Tianyi showed any signs of being bedeviled, the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife in his hands would definitely not be lenient.
"Alright!"
And after Zhao Tianyi, who was originally walking briskly forward, heard Ye Xiu's words, he subconsciously slowed his footsteps.
"Ye Long, pay attention to his every move. If anything is amiss, inform me immediately." Although Zhao Tianyi obediently slowed down his pace, Ye Xiu somehow felt that something was amiss.
If it wasn't for the fact that Zhao Tianyi's body no longer had the demonic aura, and the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife didn't have any reaction to him, Ye Xiu really suspected that this Zhao Tianyi was no longer the original Zhao Tianyi.
"Understood, Master!"
Regarding Ye Xiu's orders, Ye Long naturally followed them. Monitoring people was not difficult at all, it was just a piece of cake for him to be extra cautious.
"Master, the Profound Beast is coming, there are two of them!"
Just as the two of them continued to walk forward for another one or two minutes, Ye Long's voice sounded once more. This time however, they could already feel the hostility coming from the Profound Beast.
"Ye Long, there's demonic qi!"
Feeling the incoming hostility, the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife in Ye Xiu's hand trembled slightly.
Trembling, Ye Xiu felt the hostility in the air again and realized that it was mixed with a faint demonic aura.
Although this demonic energy was very weak, there was no doubt about it.
However, if it wasn't for the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife's reaction, Ye Xiu probably wouldn't have been able to notice the faint demonic energy in the aura.
"Master, since there's a demon's lair up ahead, all of the Profound Beast that live here would more or less be infected by the demon's aura." Ye Long explained.
"Well, it's much easier to deal with demonic energy!" Ye Xiu gently smiled.
Although he had the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife, and through that information, Ye Xiu understood the power of the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife.
However, that was just understanding. He hadn't truly experienced its power.
So, since he met a Profound Beast with demonic energy, Ye Xiu naturally wanted to experience its power.
Just like that, although the Profound Beast had already neared, Ye Xiu's footsteps became faster, he quickly rushed to Zhao Tianyi's front, and when the blade in his hand trembled even more, he fiercely slashed at the pitch black area in front of him.
"Roar! Roar!"
Following an astonishing wave of blade energy that flew out with lightning speed, howls sounded out from a dark place in front of Ye Xiu.
These howls were filled with fear and terror.
"Bang bang!"
However, when the two violent clashing sounds came out, the Profound Beast's howls came to a stop, and the place in front of them became silent once again.
"This ?"
Seeing that, the seven Profound Void Stage Warriors behind Ye Xiu were shocked. This was the power of the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife.
"What a good Demon Slaying Sabre. The might of this sabre is truly worthy of its reputation!" When Ye Xiu and the others saw the two dead Profound Beast s, everyone could not help but sigh.
Strictly speaking, they could not be considered to be real Monster.
But for Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife, as long as there was demonic energy on them, they would be their targets to eliminate, without exception.
As a result, when Ye Xiu slashed out, it did not show any mercy just because the demonic energy surrounding the two Profound Beast was not strong. Instead, it gave its all to attack the Monster and kill them all.
Furthermore, most importantly, Ye Xiu realized that the slash from before did not consume any Profound Power. It was as if the might of the slash earlier had come entirely from the blade itself, and had nothing to do with him.
The fact that his own Profound Power had not been consumed meant that as long as the energy of the blade was strong, he could eliminate as many Monster that came at him.
"Zhao Tianyi, continue to lead the way!"
After successfully killing the two Profound Beast, Ye Xiu reminded the somewhat stunned Zhao Tianyi.
"Oh, oh!"
Hearing Ye Xiu's words, Zhao Tianyi woke up from his shock, and then continued to lead the way.
"Ye Long, was there any abnormal reaction from Zhao Tianyi just now?" Looking at Zhao Tianyi who was walking in front of him, Ye Xiu asked in his mind.
"Master, his reaction is indeed different compared to Zhao Zixiong and the others. Perhaps this is because he has the memories of the Great Demon." Ye Long replied.
Actually, the reason why Ye Xiu wanted to demonstrate the might of the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife was partly to scare Zhao Tianyi, and partly to make him stop being a demon. Otherwise, the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife in his hands would not let him go.
"I hope this kid can learn from last time's lesson. No matter how enticing the Devilish Exercise is, don't walk this path of no return." Ye Xiu muttered.
Just like this, under Zhao Tianyi's guidance, they continued to walk in this dark, wet ground, and during this time, they would naturally continue to encounter Profound Beast s.
And just as Ye Long had said, because there was the relation between this place and the devil cave, every Profound Beast they had met carried devil aura with them.
To deal with these Profound Beast with devilish auras, Ye Xiu would naturally use the power of the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife to its limits. No matter how high the level of the Profound Beast he encountered, it would only be a single slash.
Even a level five or six Profound Beast would not be able to withstand a single slash from a Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife. In fact, every slash would not even miss, as if these Profound Beast were obediently waiting to be killed.
And the more Ye Xiu used this Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife to kill the Monster, the more he felt its power and terror.
Of course, after constantly killing them, Zhao Tianyi was even more respectful towards the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife in Ye Xiu's hands. With regards to this point, Ye Xiu was naturally very pleased.
This time, one reason was because he had come to this demon's lair to kill off all of the reviving magic warriors. The other reason was to test out the strength of the Killing Demon Seven Stars Knife.
"We're here!"
After they walked in the wetland for nearly an hour, Zhao Tianyi pointed to a cave not far away as he replied.
Hearing this, Ye Xiu and the others naturally discovered the hole not far away. The hole in the ground was not big, and could even be considered quite small. The hole was very narrow, and it was possible to only pass through one person at a time.
However, this cave was still quite far from the entrance of the wetland. Could it be that Zhao Tianyi and Ma Shujie were only able to escape danger when they were chased by the Profound Beast to this place?
"Zhao Tianyi, you guys escaped to this place?" Ye Xiu pointed to a place not far away and asked.
Because at that time, Zhao Tianyi and Ma Shujie's cultivation was not high, Ye Xiu could not think of how they could have escaped so far.
"No, at first, Ma Shujie and I only escaped to the edge of the wetland, and the Devilish Exercise that we cultivated in was also discovered there, it isn't this devil lair." Zhao Tianyi replied.
Zhao Tianyi found this cave based on the memories of the big devil. As for the Devilish Exercise, through the big devil's memories, he found out that it controlled a Profound Beast to bring it out of this cave after waking up.
It was just that at that time, the great demon had only just awakened, so when the Profound Beast left the wetland, it had already lost control of it.
"You mean to say, the Devilish Exercise that you all found was brought out of this devil's lair by a Profound Beast controlled by that great devil?" Ye Xiu asked.
"Well, that's it. Moreover, this devil should be the leader of all the mages in this cave." Zhao Tianyi explained.
"Zhao Tianyi, tell us everything that you know, as long as there are people related to this demon cave, and also, how did these Demon Soldiers die in this place, who killed them?" Ye Xiu asked.
Since Zhao Tianyi knew all of the devil's memories, then he definitely knew who they died to back then. Why did they die in this place and why did they start to recover now?
"Oh, I'll take a good look at it and answer you."
Hearing Ye Xiu's question, Zhao Tianyi nodded his head, and started to search through the memories carefully.
