The Demon Suppressing Fortress was like an immemorial behemoth crawling on the dark earth, guarding one side and forming a line of defense between the Earth Demon Abyss and Blue Waves Continent.
To the west of the Demon Suppressing Fortress, the chaotic demonic qi gradually became denser, and ferocious underground demonic creatures appeared everywhere.
A black gate with the appearance of a gourd was towering. Its edges were covered with silvery-white runes, and each rune was flickering with an autumn water-like splendor, emitting a trace of incomparably mysterious fluctuation.
This gate was the gate leading to the first floor of the Earth Demon Abyss.
At first, this gate was opened by the demon race experts of the Earth Demon Abyss in order to let the demonic creatures and demons of the Earth Demon Abyss attack Blue Waves Continent. Later, it was repelled and was too late to destroy it, so the experts of Blue Waves Continent used it to stabilize it, making it the entrance and exit for the Demon Suppressing Fortress and the Demon Suppressing Army to enter the Earth Demon Abyss.
In addition, the Demon Suppressing Army also sent experts to guard the entrance and exit of the Earth Demon Abyss to prevent the demon race experts from destroying it, making it convenient for the martial artists of the Demon Suppressing Fortress to enter.
The Earth Demon Abyss was very dangerous, but similarly, there were many useful resources in the Earth Demon Abyss. Moreover, the harsh environment and ferocious demonic creatures of the Earth Demon Abyss could also be used to temper martial artists.
In the past, there were some demon race experts who attempted to destroy it, but they were all repelled. Gradually, the demon race experts no longer sent people. Perhaps, they thought that letting the martial artists of Blue Waves Continent enter would also have the effect of survival of the fittest for the demonic creatures and demons of the Earth Demon Abyss.
Above the black and red hard earth, in the midst of the dusky chaotic demonic qi, a ray of light flew past at an astonishing speed. It was as fast as lightning, spreading across the earth like a thin line, as if a brush was drawing on a paper.
That ray of light was incomparably sharp, as if a sword piercing through the air. Wherever it passed, all the demonic creatures, regardless of whether they had attacked or not, were cut open and torn apart.
The ray of light approached the gate, and without stopping, it directly rushed into that gate.
In the middle of the gate, as if water ripples, layer upon layer of ripples spread out. As that ray of light penetrated, the ripples gradually faded and disappeared, returning to tranquility.
In the first floor of the Earth Demon Abyss, the gourd-like gate flickered with a ray of light, and like water ripples, layer upon layer of light spread out. Immediately, a figure appeared, instantly shot out of the gate, and landed on the ground.
When this figure landed on the ground, his muscles muscles involuntarily tightened, and his spiritual power surged endlessly like a river. the sword at his waist lightly trembled, and his eyes were sharp to the extreme, emitting an incomparably astonishing sharpness, as if piercing and tearing the front of the front.
After three breaths, the long sword at his waist returned to normal. The sharp and cold light in his eyes was also restrained. His tense muscles also relaxed.
Looking The Ground, of the sky of Heaven was, as if it, heavy, of a heavy heavy and made of clouds of the sky of the sky, was like a frozen of the of the painting of Earth painting, and of Earth earth earth. of Earth earth earth earth earth.
Looking down, the ground was black, and incomparably hard, like fine steel. It constantly emitted traces of coldness.
Looking around, one could see three black palaces that were arranged in a triangular formation. Outside the palaces, there were eight pillars that were completely black. Each pillar was as thick as three people hugging it. They were about thirty meters tall and pointed straight at the dark sky. Each pillar was covered with runes, and each rune was a faint silver-white color. From time to time, there would be a flash of light.
At the top of each pillar, there was a ball of pure white light, about a meter in diameter, floating. The ball of light was slightly undulating, as if it was floating in water.
The area within the eight pillars was about ten thousand meters wide.
The pure spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth drifting in the air was astonishing.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. A sharp sound of wind breaking could be heard. Two figures flew in from afar, and a terrifying aura locked onto Chen Zong.
"Who are you? Report your identity. "
These two were dressed in the attire of Demon Suppression Sergeants. Their aura was strong, and they had both reached the Seventh Tier of the Extreme Mortal Realm. A faint murderous aura surrounded them.
"Demon Slayer Division Deputy Chen Zong." The incomer reported his identity.
"Demon Slayer Division!" The two Demon Suppression Sergeants were slightly startled, and carefully sized him up. The armor on Chen Zong was indeed the Demon Slayer Armor that only the Demon Slayer Division had. Shortly after, they also saw the symbol that appeared on the back of Chen Zong's left hand.
"Please follow us to verify your identity." The two Demon Suppression Sergeants spoke in a much gentler tone.
The purpose of verifying one's identity was to avoid unnecessary trouble and reduce danger.
Of course, Chen Zong wouldn't refuse. After verifying his identity, the two Demon Suppression Sergeants escorted Chen Zong out.
"You must be careful. Recently, the underground demons have become even more violent." One of the Demon Suppression Sergeants said. They were always more careful and patient towards their colleagues.
"If you want to enter the second level, you must also be more careful. According to the Demon Hunters who returned, the underground demons have appeared." The other Demon Suppression Sergeant said.
"Thank you both." Chen Zong clasped his fists and strode out of the range of the eight Demon Suppression Columns.
Immediately, it was as if he had entered another world. The feeling was completely different.
Cold, dark, mysterious. All kinds of bad feelings attacked him from all directions, as if they were going to corrode and swallow him whole. This was the chaotic demonic aura. It was even denser and more domineering than the chaotic demonic aura on the surface of the Earth Demon Abyss. It was even stronger than the demonic space that he had entered previously.
The Demon Suppression Columns had two functions. One was to purify the chaotic demonic aura. The principle behind this was that the runes on the columns and the light ball at the top would transform the chaotic demonic aura into spiritual energy of heaven and earth, filling the area of the Demon Suppression Column. This way, it would be more beneficial for the Demon Suppression Sergeants guarding the door to cultivate. It was also a place for the Demon Suppression Sergeants who entered the Earth Demon Abyss to rest and recuperate.
Secondly, it was said that the eight Demon Suppression Columns were normally accumulating power. At critical moments, they would release their power to protect the camp from being destroyed. They would also attack the demonic creatures and demons.
However, the construction of the Demon Suppression Columns was not only difficult, but also required a lot of resources. It was impossible to build more.
Chen Zong sensed it carefully. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the air was very thin. It was less than one-tenth of the chaotic demonic aura. Moreover, it was very heterogeneous. This was a place lacking in spiritual energy. Compared to Chaotian Island, it was much worse.
"Every bit of spiritual energy is precious here. It's not advisable to consume too much of it."
"Replenishing spiritual energy should also be done with elixirs as the main source of spiritual energy and supplementary."
In such an environment, it was undoubtedly very difficult to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the air to replenish spiritual energy. Moreover, the heterogeneous spiritual energy of heaven and earth entering the body would affect the purity of one's spiritual energy to a certain extent.
There were usually no underground demonic creatures around the camp because they would be wiped out as soon as they approached.
Chen Zong advanced for about a quarter of an hour before he saw the first demonic creature. However, it was only an ordinary demonic creature. He casually killed it. The mark on the back of his hand flashed faintly, identifying the type and strength of the demonic creature. Chen Zong was awarded the corresponding merit points.
Killing demonic creatures and receiving merit points was not only a privilege of the Demon Hunters. Strictly speaking, this was spread by the Demon Suppression Army.
Chen Zong did not stop. His goal was the second and third levels of the Earth Demonic Abyss. In the first level, it was impossible to find demonic creatures of the seventh level and above.
The first level of the Earth Demonic Abyss had basically been thoroughly explored by the Demon Suppression Army and the Demon Hunters. They had also made maps, so Chen Zong already knew where the entrance to the second level was.
The closer Chen Zong got to the entrance to the second level, the more demonic creatures Chen Zong encountered. Chen Zong would kill any demonic creature he encountered. However, he usually only used his physical strength and minimized the use of his spiritual energy.
Even if he only used his physical strength, there was no demonic creature in the first level that could block any of his sword strikes. They could be easily killed and turned into Chen Zong's merit points. In just half an hour, Chen Zong's merit points had increased by more than a thousand.
Chen Zong would not deliberately pursue killing demonic creatures and waste time.
About a few days later, Chen Zong's merit points had also far surpassed before. The entrance to the second level was right in front of him.
The entrance was different from the entrance on the first floor. It was a dark vortex with a diameter of ten meters. It was suspended in the air a dozen meters above the ground and constantly rotated clockwise. It was as if it was sucking in everything around it. It looked very mysterious.
Staring at the dark vortex, Chen Zong felt like he was going to be sucked into it.
Under the dark vortex, there was a large group of demonic creatures wandering around. There were more than thirty of them, each emitting a powerful aura. They were all low-level demonic creatures.
"Kill!"
With a low roar, the black sword light flashed like a ray of light, cutting everything in front of it into two.
The bodies of the low-level demonic creatures froze and were then cut in half. They all died.
Chen Zong's merit points in the mark of the Demon Slayers Division increased rapidly.
With a leap, Chen Zong rushed toward the dark vortex like a bolt of lightning. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared into it.
...
"The heart of a human is so delicious." He was dressed in a long black robe, but his face was pale without a trace of blood. His eyes were pitch-black, and his ears were sharp and long. When he opened his mouth to speak, he revealed his sharp fangs. He was chewing slowly, and one could vaguely see the color of blood spreading in his mouth. The taste was so delicious that he was intoxicated.
"Go to the second level. Maybe you can find those humans who call themselves Demon Hunters." Another person with a similarly pale face and pitch-black eyes laughed shrilly.
His figure flashed and his long robe fluttered. One could vaguely see a streak of scarlet flying past like a large bat in the night sky.
...
On the second level of the Earth Demon Abyss, a dark vortex was spinning continuously more than ten meters above the ground. Soon after, a figure fell from it.
Landing as lightly as a feather, Chen Zong quickly swept across the surroundings. There were no demonic creatures nearby.
He looked at the sky above and then at the ground below. The sky here was darker and more oppressive than the first level, and the ground seemed to be harder. The chaotic demonic qi in the air was more intense, at least twice as strong as the first level of the Earth Demon Abyss. As for the spiritual qi of heaven and earth, it was so thin that it was difficult to sense it.
