Happy New Year to all book friends, I'm a bit busy todayChapter 1 (Added)As the group cautiously ventured deeper into the grotto, Lu Xia Tian repeatedly pondered the anomalies he had encountered since entering. The celestial demon tribe members were on high alert, carefully guarding against any potential dangers lurking around them.

During that time, an expanse of fertile grassland passed by, followed by a desolate hill. Finally, they reached a swamp ablaze with flowing flames. The swamp was dotted with flickering blue-red spirits fires everywhere.

"Shagaling fire!" Several members of the Huo Hu clan, including Yueyu, had a hint of delight on their faces. Their Huo Hu clan were masters of fire manipulation. The appearance of spiritual fire here was undoubtedly advantageous for their operation.

A few people had just arrived at this swamp when they saw a firefly rhinoceros, no bigger than a palm, with flames emanating from its body and two leaves on its back, fly out of a pool of spirits fire. The two emerald green leaves flapped like wings, and the palm-sized crimson rhinoceros was incredibly fast. In a flash, it disappeared from the sight of all the demon races present.

"Green Petal Divine Match!" Yuèyǔ, Lángdú, Xiēwǔ and the others were all shaken, blurting out the name of this spirit creature. Without the slightest hesitation, a group of transformed demon clansmen chased after it, breaking through the air.

"What is this green calyx spirit-orchid" Lu Xiaoteng secretly transmitted his voice to Du Ming.

According to rumors, it is a treasure used by a late stage Nascent Soul expert to break through to the Void God realm. Although demons and humans are different, their requirements for advancement are not exactly the same. However, those who are similar to humans or practice similar cultivation methods can also break through realms. Among the demon troops that attacked Chihe Town this time, they were all demons that were relatively close to humans.

Having witnessed the legendary spirit, Du Ming was extremely excited and said.

“A treasure that can promote to the Shenxu realm!” Lu Xia Tian’s heart was also trembling. At this time, a group of powerful Hunyuan stage cultivators had already chased far away. Lu Xia Tian was forced by the inability to expose his strength too early, otherwise he would easily be attacked by the demon clan. Now he could only watch them chase farther and farther away.

Where a treasure appears, there must be an anomaly. We are far away, let's follow along and see. Even if we don't get the treasure, it'll be a rare experience to witness its true form. Lu Xia Tian smiled slightly, stepping into the swamp with one foot.

"Very well, then I'll listen to your advice." Du Ming wasn't going to stay alone, but he didn't believe Lu Xia Tian's words. He guessed that Lu Xia Tian was probably up to the same trick as before, waiting to ambush a lone transforming god demon when they were separated.

In fact, just as Du Ming guessed, if something unusual happened and he encountered a wounded and isolated Divine Transformation demon clan, he would definitely not show mercy. The two captured Divine Transformation wolf spirit souls and scorpion spirit souls had already been refined with the Soul War Yuanzhu. The refinement of the third portion of Dragon Essence was also underway without stopping for a moment. For these demon clan powerhouses whose strength hadn't yet reached the Divine Transformation stage, Lu Xia Tian no longer held much fear.

A shriek rang out, causing Lu Xiaottian's eyebrows to raise. Du Ming jumped in fright. The scream belonged to Beli, a woman from the Fire Tiger Clan. Another Nascent Soul demon clan member had fallen so cleanly and efficiently.

With a deafening roar, countless jets of fiery water erupted from afar. A colossal, two-headed hound, half a zhang tall and covered in a mesmerizing tapestry of crimson, black, and azure scales, leaped out of the swirling waters. One massive paw pinned Berly's lower body to the ground, while its upper half was being mercilessly gnawed by the monstrous beast's jaws.

"I've eaten a fair amount of human flesh, but it's been ages since I've tasted such succulent demon blood!" the three-colored two-headed dog spoke in human tongue, its face contorted into a sneer as it gazed upon the multitude of demons.

The Green-Veil Rhinoceros, which had been pursued by a horde of demon beasts before, was nowhere to be seen under the obstruction of the two-headed demon dog.

"A Void Refinement Realm expert" At this moment, feeling the overwhelming aura emanating from the two-headed demon dog, Yue Yu and the other demons were all terrified, their faces drained of color.

"The Void Realm Not exactly, but for you insignificant ants, it wouldn't make much of a difference, would it" The two-headed demonic dog moved, leaving only faint shadows in the air. When it reappeared, its claws had already smashed the head of a Nascent Soul wolf demon.

Two more screams rang out one after the other, and both the Fire Tiger tribe's tiger demon and another transformed scorpion demon perished.

Puscorpion Wu's body flipped several giant somersaults in the air, half of his body exploding into a cloud of black poison. Inside, scorpions swirled around as the two-headed demon dog spat out a ball of demonic fire, burning the black mist clean. However, Puscorpion Wu was seriously injured and his escape technique sent him flying a long distance.

“If we chase any further, we'll cross the border. It's a pity, sooner or later they'll fall into the hands of those spirits, wasting all that good flesh.” The two-headed demon dog saw the remaining demons escape from the swamp in the blink of an eye, snorted coldly, and immediately turned around, shoving the corpses of several Nascent Soul demons it had just killed into its mouth. After a few chews, it swallowed them directly.

When several Divine Transformation Demonic Beasts died consecutively, Lu Xiaoteng was also startled. He retreated faster than Lone Wolf and the others. Hu Dou's primordial spirit wasn't destroyed by the two-headed demonic dog. All the way back, Lu Xiaoteng casually collected it during his retreat.

Leaving the swamp behind, he ran back for a stretch before returning to the desolate dunes. He hadn't felt the powerful pursuer behind him, and Lu Xia Tian finally let out a sigh of relief. A demonic wind swept in from behind, it was Xie Wu who had lost half his body and was bleeding profusely.

“Scorpius, Lord Scorpius!” Du Ming saw Scorpius in such a sorry state, and didn't know what to say. He looked at Scorpius helplessly, then at Lu Xia Tian.

“You, all of you, take me away from here. I need to heal my wounds. After we leave, there will be a generous reward.” With that, black light surged from Xie Wu’s body, enveloping his mangled form.

“What has Lord Xie Wu experienced before How could he have ended up in such a state” Du Ming asked after receiving Lu Xiaofeng’s hint.

“This isn’t your concern, take me out! If you think you can take advantage of the situation and escape, even in my current state, I can make sure you live in misery and die with regret!” Xie Wu opened his eyes, his face twisted into a menacing sneer. If it weren't for his severe injuries, he wouldn't waste his breath talking to these mere化神人奴 like this.

“Since you won't speak, there's no need for you to live.” In Xiezhu’s astonished eyes, the silent Lu Xia Tian had already stood beside him. With a sudden attack, he struck at the vital point. Before Xiezhu could react, the blood energy transformed into a large claw and plunged into his chest.

Xie Wu looked at Lu Xia Tian with disbelief in his eyes. He never expected that after dodging the two-headed demon dog, he would die at the hands of this seemingly most insignificant servant. What a great irony.

If Xie Wu still retained a considerable amount of fighting power and was willing to explore this secret realm, Lu Xia Tian wouldn't have acted so quickly against him. However, the guy now had no fighting spirit whatsoever and only wanted to escape from here. Lu Xia Tian naturally wouldn't let the two red blood peaches on his blood pass him by.
