It's here. What will come will come.
Du Feng had already concealed his aura and stopped his heartbeat. This was a skill he learned in the lower realm. It was called the Dead Wood Technique. It could temporarily stop his heartbeat and blood flow so that he wouldn't be easily discovered. Sometimes, no matter how well you concealed your aura, a small heartbeat could expose you.
"Brother Chou, how did you die here?"
Unexpectedly, not only did the pangolin discover the armadillo's corpse, but it also recognized him. The armadillo and the pangolin were very similar, and their Cultivation levels were similar. To be more precise, the armadillo evolved faster than the pangolin Demon Lord.
But strangely, the armadillo maintained its beast form and didn't evolve into a human form. But this didn't stop it from becoming a level 19 demon beast. In previous battles, the armadillo had helped the pangolin Demon Lord. Of course, he hadn't become a Demon Lord back then.
The armadillo had been missing for hundreds of years. Unexpectedly, its corpse was buried in this place and was only discovered today.
Maybe it was heavily injured and didn't want to implicate its friends, so it hid underground to recuperate. Unexpectedly, it died here. What was even more unexpected was that the pangolin Demon Lord chased after it today. The armadillo's carcass seemed to be protecting Du Feng, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
The pangolin Demon Lord dug out the surrounding soil and made a simple room. Then, it bowed to the armadillo's corpse, wiped the tears from the corner of its eyes, and left.
The dead should be respected. He could be cruel to other demon beasts, but he couldn't do it to an old friend. Therefore, he didn't touch the armadillo's corpse, nor would he try to tear it apart to find the enemy. After bowing, the pangolin Demon Lord left.
One had to say that he was really loyal. In order to take revenge for the Porcupine Demon Lord, he even dug into the ground and was so respectful when he saw the armadillo's corpse. If not for the fact that they were on opposite sides, Du Feng wanted to make friends with him.
That was how life was. Your enemies weren't necessarily bad, and your friends weren't necessarily good.
The pangolin was a good Demon Lord. He was powerful and managed the Demon City well. He was also loyal to his friends. However, his friend, the Porcupine Demon Lord, was not a good person. He framed Du Feng the moment they met. Then, he was crippled by Du Feng and trapped in a cave, unable to live or die.
Du Feng was a good person, but because he dug away the Porcupine Demon Lord's treasure, he was hunted by the Pangolin Demon Lord. This time, he was lucky to have escaped with the protection of the armadillo's corpse. But if they really did meet, good demons and good people would inevitably fight to the death.
Although Du Feng could not see what had happened outside, Xiao Hei had conveyed it to him. He stayed motionless in the armadillo's armor and did not use the Dragon Riding Sword to drill a hole.
Even the Pangolin Demon Lord did not destroy the armadillo's carcass, so how could Du Feng have the nerve to do so? And it was because of this corpse that his life was saved by a freak combination of factors. If possible, Du Feng still hoped to be able to open the armor in its entirety.
But he stayed inside for a whole month and still could not find a way to open it. Just as he was worrying, the armadillo's armor suddenly opened up on its own and returned to its previous flat position. Interestingly, the earthen room dug out by the pangolin Demon Cultivator was just right for the armadillo's carcass to lie in.
All of this seemed to have been prearranged. Du Feng bowed three times to the armadillo's carcass and calmed his excited heart.
"Goodbye, Senior!"
This was the first time Du Feng had called a demon beast senior, and a dead one at that. He secretly swore in his heart that when his strength increased, he would definitely send the armadillo's carcass to the Demon Emperor City's Demon Emperor Palace. Because that was the dream of every demon cultivator.
A demon beast trained hard to become a demon cultivator, and a demon cultivator trained to enter the Demon Emperor City and step into the Demon Emperor Palace. He believed that Senior Armadillo must have had this wish when he was alive.
When Du Feng drilled out of the ground, the pangolin Demon Cultivator was long gone. The once destroyed surface was now covered with weeds, and occasionally there were a few wildflowers mixed in. Wildfire really couldn't burn, and the spring wind blew again. Compared to the weeds, the trees weren't so lucky. Most of the broken trees had withered, and the few that hadn't died had just started to grow saplings from their roots. It would still take a long time for them to grow.
Du Feng originally wanted to sneak underground for a while before coming up to the surface. But after thinking about it carefully, sneaking underground would be safer than above ground. So after coming out, he used the fastest speed to leave this forest and rushed to the next Demon City in the Six Ring.
The Lion King City in the Ten Ring, the Fighting Bull City in the Nine Ring, the Little Leopard City in the Eight Ring, and the Demon City of the Porcupine Demon Lord in the Seven Ring. Du Feng had been to all of them and experienced a lot. Now that he was in the Six Ring, he became even more cautious.
Just as he arrived at the city gate, he saw a long queue outside. They were actually inspecting something. Du Feng focused his gaze and looked at the leather paper in the hands of the city guard. It turned out to be a wanted poster. That's right, Du Feng was wanted. Fortunately, he had used a fake face at that time.
So the wanted person was the fake Du Feng, and the current one was Du Feng.
He didn't dare to use a disguise to enter the Demon City in the Six Ring. It would be easy to be suspected that way. After all, this Demon City in the Six Ring had a Demon Lord overseeing it. Moreover, it was the experienced Aardvark Demon Lord.
Uh … Did I have a quarrel with someone who knows how to dig recently? Du Feng pouted helplessly. The aardvark was also called anteater. Its head was narrow and long, and its snout protruded forward like a tube. It looked like a big mouse. Its tongue was thin and long, and it had mucus. It could be shot out very quickly and could stick ants and other insects.
Its ears were very big, like those of a donkey. Its four limbs were thick and strong, especially its two forelimbs. There were long claws at the end of its toes, and it was very good at digging. Of course, the Aardvark Demon Lord, who had cultivated a human form, didn't need to dig because it also knew the Earth Escape Technique and was very familiar with it.
In other words, if Du Feng competed with the Aardvark Demon Lord in Earth Escape, he definitely wouldn't be able to win. He also didn't want to cause trouble here.
The most noteworthy thing about the aardvark, other than its front claws, was its tail. Although the tail was very thin, it was very destructive. It was different from the pangolin's tail. The pangolin's tail was strong and powerful, but it was slow.
The aardvark's thin tail was extremely fast when it swung, and it could change direction freely. A swing of its tail had the same effect as a slash of a sword. It could directly cut a person into two.
