Chapter 523 The First Hunt for Demons
Chapter 523 The First Hunt for Demons
The two left Red Rain City and walked along the road into the wilderness.
The residences of Taixu were not too far apart and were all located in the same area.
This area is surrounded by wilderness.
After traveling a hundred miles through the wilderness, you will enter the Demon Hunter Wilderness, where demons roam.
In other words, the Demon Hunter Wilderness surrounds the dwelling place of Taixu.
After entering the wilderness, the two quickened their pace.
Lin Feng didn't plan to spend the night in the wilderness; he intended to finish the battle quickly, kill two magical beasts, and then return.
Zhang Xiaoyu's life attribute reached over 500, and she was quite fast when running.
The two ran for about fifty miles before stopping and sitting down to rest on a rock.
Zhang Xiaoyu carefully looked around.
Looking around, the surrounding land is sandy, with many crooked trees growing there.
These trees appear to have adapted to the barren soil here.
Clumps of long-leaved wild grasses also grew on the ground; these grasses looked withered but were actually still alive.
There was also a puddle several meters in diameter nearby.
You can vaguely see fish swimming in the puddle.
"Xiao Feng, why does this place feel so strange?"
There was no sun in the sky, nor any moon or stars; there was water on the ground, but the land was extremely barren.
"It's quite barren; this place is far inferior to the Central Plains."
"If it weren't for the magic crystals, who would want to stay here?"
Tap tap tap, a series of footsteps came from afar.
Zhang Xiaoyu immediately stood up, a nervous look on her face. "Xiaofeng, it's a Crimson Shadow Dragon, and three of them came running at once."
"Brother Zhang, don't panic."
You've absorbed a lot of magic crystals during this time, greatly increasing your power.
"You could handle those three Crimson Shadow Dragons yourself."
Zhang Xiaoyu drew the sword from behind her.
He himself wasn't really confident. He had just arrived in Shenzhou when he was attacked by the Crimson Shadow Dragon, so he was somewhat afraid of that thing.
"Xiao Feng, let's do it together, brother."
"Okay, I'll take care of the first two, and you can handle the last one."
Lin Feng drew the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword and flashed to the front of the first Crimson Shadow Dragon.
This red shadow dragon is the largest, standing four or five meters tall with its neck outstretched, clearly the leader.
With a soft thud, Lin Feng thrust his sword out, piercing the neck of the Crimson Shadow Dragon.
"Awooo!" the Crimson Shadow Dragon howled and lowered its head to bite Lin Feng.
Lin Feng dodged to the side, and then slashed another foot-long wound on the side of the Crimson Shadow Dragon.
The Crimson Shadow Dragon turned and bit Lin Feng.
Lin Feng flashed to the side of another Crimson Shadow Dragon and slashed at its belly.
Without internal energy and true qi in Taixu, the martial arts learned in Shenzhou are only useful for the moves.
Lin Feng has mastered too many martial arts techniques, and can use all kinds of moves with ease.
After fighting for a while, Lin Feng lost interest in the Crimson Shadow Dragon. It was just a larger beast, and there was no challenge in fighting it.
Lin Feng jumped onto the back of the largest Crimson Shadow Dragon, wrapped his arms around its neck, and plunged the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword into its neck.
Lin Feng was stronger than the Crimson Shadow Dragon, and the Crimson Shadow Dragon's neck was completely immobile.
The Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword frantically devoured the blood of the Crimson Shadow Dragon.
The Crimson Shadow Dragon struggled in circles, but to no avail, and collapsed to the ground after a few breaths.
Lin Feng used the same method to kill the second Crimson Shadow Dragon.
Lin Feng's breakthrough points increased by twenty, which is better than nothing.
Zhang Xiaoyu was still fighting the third Crimson Shadow Dragon, so Lin Feng didn't go up to help her. He let Zhang Xiaoyu handle it herself, considering it a warm-up.
Lin Feng raised the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword and examined it.
The blade of the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword was a deep red, as if it had been heated to a high temperature.
This sword came to life once it reached the Void Realm; it was especially adept at absorbing blood.
The blood of those two Crimson Shadow Dragons was completely drained by the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword.
Lin Feng could sense that the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword was becoming stronger by absorbing blood.
This reddening state is likely due to the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword digesting the blood it just absorbed.
Lin Feng swung his sword at the stone beside him.
With a whoosh, the stone was easily split open without any obstruction.
When the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword turns red, its sharpness seems to double.
After only a few breaths, the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword returned to its original state, presumably having digested and absorbed the blood.
Since the Demon Spirit Blood-Drinking Sword loves to absorb blood so much, let it absorb more blood in the future and see how strong it can become.
Lin Feng sat on a rock, watching Zhang Xiaoyu fight the Crimson Shadow Dragon.
It took Zhang Xiaoyu two minutes to get into the zone and apply the moves she learned from Shenzhou to Taixu's body.
Before long, Zhang Xiaoyu killed the Crimson Shadow Dragon.
Zhang Xiaoyu knew that Lin Feng had already finished his battle and was used to Lin Feng's strength.
"Xiao Feng, let's eat the barbecue."
Zhang Xiaoyu chopped some branches and gathered some dry grass, started a fire on the spot, and began to roast the Crimson Shadow Dragon's thigh.
It took quite a while for the meat to be cooked.
The two of them ate with relish. Apart from being a bit tough, the Crimson Shadow Dragon's meat was fine.
As the two were eating, a group of witchers approached.
The two immediately became alert.
The team that arrived was a standard five-person squad. Judging from their attire, they were all from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect. None of them were wearing armor, so they were probably just an ordinary demon-hunting squad.
After the group arrived, they didn't get too close.
The leader was a burly man carrying a three-meter-long broadsword.
He said to Lin Feng and his companion, "Brothers, can I borrow some meat to eat?"
Zhang Xiaoyu pointed to the Crimson Shadow Dragon she had killed and said, "You can take that one."
The group dragged the Crimson Shadow Dragon away.
People are always wary when they encounter an unfamiliar demon-hunting team in the wild.
There are no rules here, so even if someone steals from another, nobody will know.
After finishing their barbecue, Lin Feng and his companion continued on their way.
Lin Feng's target was the horned demons in the area ahead.
The Barbarian Horned Demon is almost the lowest-ranking demon in the Void Realm.
After the two left, the five demon hunters from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect came over.
One of the skinny guys in their group said, "Brother, these two look like newbies. Let's find a chance to take them out."
Even if we work our butts off for a year, we still can't earn enough for one set of their armor.
That makes perfect sense, and several people in the team were tempted.
The burly man at the head of the group was relatively cautious.
He pondered for a moment and then said, "Let's go and see."
Everyone should be careful not to expose themselves.
Even if we're going to take action, we should wait until they've finished fighting the demons.
"Yes, they are both newcomers, and there are only two of them."
Even with the best equipment, they are not immune to failed hunts.
"We'll strike when they're injured or exhausted, and we can easily take them down."
When Zhang Xiaoyu and Lin Feng had traveled a hundred miles away from the town...
Lin Feng said, "Be careful, the low-level horned demons roam around here."
The area was very quiet; there wasn't even a bird chirping.
Black mist still filled the surroundings.
The two carefully observed their surroundings and walked forward back to back.
Suddenly, a giant beast, two meters tall, with two short horns resembling rhinoceros horns on its head, short legs, a body as large as an ox, and shrouded in black smoke, charged out from the side.
"Awooo!" the monster roared.
Zhang Xiaoyu was so shocked that she felt dizzy and covered her ears, then squatted down on the ground.
