A cannon man suddenly raised his arm, flicked his fingers, and a spiral black wind condensed out of the air and rolled towards the big tree where Liu Ming was hiding.
There was a "boom"!
The moment the big dry tree touched the spiral black phoenix, it exploded and turned into wood debris all over the sky.
A black shadow suddenly retreated from the debris in the sky, it was Liu Ming!
Liu Ming turned over with one hand at this moment, and a yellow shield suddenly appeared in his hand. At the same time, his thoughts were racing in his mind as he quickly analyzed the unexpected situation in front of him.
This group of demons are obviously coming towards him. If they want to deal with one, two or even three or four, they should be able to rely on their methods. But if they have to deal with seven powerful demons at once, it will be really troublesome.
.
Just as Liu Ming was thinking about it, a man in gray robe who seemed to be the leader across the way suddenly said:
"You can kill a member of our clan by yourself, so you must not be an ordinary person! But it doesn't matter, the few of us are not looking for you for revenge, but we hope that you and I will join forces to fight in a nearby ruins
Get some things out. After the thing is done, the benefits will naturally be indispensable to you..."
The demon's words made Liu Ming, who was originally considering how to respond, slightly startled.
Since the other party said this, it was obvious that these demons were not accomplices to the demons they killed before.
Thinking about it, the Ten Thousand Demons Continent is not as large as the Zhongtian Continent. It is certainly impossible for only one demon force to enter the ruins.
"Join forces? Humans and demons are incompatible. Are you kidding me?" Liu Ming's thoughts turned rapidly and he replied expressionlessly.
"Why can't we join forces? Hehe. In this ruins, it is different from in the human world. It has never happened before that your human race and our race have joined forces. This time, the reason why we found you is because
I found that the secret art of totems that fellow Taoist masters can help us easily break through the restrictions of the ruins over there. Of course, it’s okay if we don’t agree, but by that time, I can’t think of a reason to let you go.
"The man in gray robe said eloquently, while the other six people beside him also looked at Liu Ming coldly with expressionless expressions, as if they could not tolerate his refusal.
When Liu Ming heard this, his heart trembled.
Due to his nature, he would not easily believe the words of these demons, but in this situation where the enemy is strong and we are weak, and all the demons are eyeing him, it seems that he cannot tolerate his refusal.
"Even if what you said earlier is true, how do I know whether you will go back on your words after the fact? If so, Liu would rather give it a try now than help you wait to obtain the important treasure." Liu Ming still didn't know.
He said animatedly.
"Haha, I heard that the human race has always been suspicious. It's true! In this case, we can swear a blood oath in the name of the Demon Lord and never break our promise." The leader of the gray-robed man frowned and did not hesitate.
So said.
"The Name of the Demon Lord"
When Liu Ming heard this, his expression immediately changed.
Based on his understanding in the classics, the so-called "Demon Lord" naturally refers to the king of the demons who invaded the human world in ancient times. He is said to have magical powers that span all worlds. He is a truly terrifying existence like a demon god.
Whether it is the demons in ancient times or the demons in the Demon Continent today, they have always regarded it as their spiritual sustenance.
Therefore, no matter whether demons or demons swear in the name of "Demon Lord", it is definitely the most solemn oath, and few people dare to violate it.
"Okay. If you really swear an oath in the name of the Demon Lord, I have to believe it." Liu Ming said through gritted teeth after thinking quickly.
"Very good, I hope you will remember this." The leader of the gray-robed man laughed, moved his arm, and suddenly opened the other wrist. After gurgling black and red blood flowed out, he said it in the name of "Demon Lord"
A poisonous oath, promising that if one violates this oath, he will become a blood sacrifice to the demon lord.
The other six gray-robed demons beside him also swore poisonous oaths in the name of the demon lord in unison.
When Liu Ming saw this, his face became gloomy. After a moment, he spoke again:
"Since I have promised you to act together, you can tell me what treasures are in the ruins. In addition, I hope that we can discuss how to distribute the benefits in advance."
"Okay! Fellow Taoist, you are so happy! But I really have nothing to say about the treasures in this ruins. We only know that there are many important treasures in them, but we don't know what they are. As for how to distribute them, since there are seven of us, you
If it's just one person, then if you take one-eighth of it, it won't be considered a injustice to you." The gray-robed man at the head said slowly.
"One-eighth is too little! I want one-third."
Since the other party took the initiative to propose an alliance, it meant that they really needed him. After some deliberation, Liu Ming started to bargain blatantly.
"One-third is too much! I'm in charge, how about I give you a quarter? No more, it's absolutely impossible." A pair of blue eyes of the man in gray robe flashed, like this
He spoke.
The other six demons around him also nodded and looked at Liu Ming with cold eyes.
"Okay, then a quarter!" Liu Ming agreed after thinking for a moment.
"Very well, without further ado, come with us!"
The gray-robed man at the head showed a satisfied look, flicked his sleeves, and black energy surged all over his body.
After a moment, a large group of demonic clouds appeared out of thin air, enveloping all the people, and blasted away towards the east in a strong wind.
In the demon cloud, Liu Ming kept a distance from several demons intentionally or unintentionally.
Although there was a poisonous oath from the Demon Lord, and considering that these people would not attack him rashly before entering the ruins, it is still best to be careful.
The gray-robed man at the head was a little surprised that Liu Ming was not affected at all despite being in the demon cloud. He intentionally or unintentionally asked Liu Ming whether he had practiced magic skills before.
Liu Ming naturally made a fuss about this, and other than admitting that he was a disciple of the Taiqing Sect under repeated questioning, he did not reveal anything else.
Of course, Liu Ming did not miss the opportunity and asked the man in gray robe for information about the Continent of Ten Thousand Demons and the Demons. The man in gray robe seemed to know everything and told Liu Ming eloquently.
.
It turns out that the legendary Continent of Ten Thousand Demons, which is as famous as Zhongtian Continent, has many differences from Zhongtian Continent. The most obvious point is that the demons living in it can be said to be all cultivators, that is, everyone is a demon cultivator.
.
As for the true devil's energy, which is the most important in magic arts, although it is still a very precious and rare thing in the Ten Thousand Demons Continent, compared with Zhongtian Continent where true devil's energy is almost extinct, there are still many channels to obtain it.
Because the Continent of Ten Thousand Demons is dotted with "magic sources" of various sizes, similar to bottomless pits, each "magic source" will continue to emit demonic energy, and there are a few "devil sources" that emit demonic energy.
It will be mixed with real demonic energy of different purity.
These "devil sources" that can produce true demonic energy are called "true demon sources" and are extremely precious.
The major forces in the Ten Thousand Demons Continent use these "magic sources" as their foundation to thrive, and among them, the more "true demon sources" they have, the stronger the force is.
In addition, the difference between demons and humans is that they attach great importance to blood. Among each force, only those with pure blood or excellent qualifications have the opportunity to continuously absorb the true demon's energy through the demon source for cultivation.
Most of the remaining demons with low qualifications can only practice through ordinary demonic energy. Of course, by completing some sect tasks or in the market, they can still have the opportunity to exchange for a small number of real demonic energy, but
For cultivation, it is often a drop in the bucket.
When Liu Ming heard this, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart. The distinction between core disciples and ordinary disciples in the Ten Thousand Demons Continent is somewhat like the inner and outer disciples of the sects in the Zhongtian Continent, but once they are reduced to the periphery due to their qualifications and bloodline,
As a disciple, I am afraid that it would be extremely difficult to turn over.
At the same time, he couldn't help but think of the demons imprisoned in the mysterious bubble, and a sense of uneasiness flashed through his heart.
The two of them were chatting about matters in their respective continents, while the other six demons acted as if they had not heard anything about it and just closed their eyes to rest.
Although Liu Ming seemed to be having a great time chatting with the man in gray robe, his consciousness never relaxed for a moment and he was always paying attention to the changes in the surrounding environment.
What surprised him was that wherever the demonic cloud passed along the way, all kinds of monsters tried to avoid them and did not dare to approach them at all.
Half a day passed in a flash, and the group soon arrived at an unfamiliar area.
As the demonic cloud gathered and dispersed, Liu Ming finally saw the scenery in front of him clearly.
What came into view was an open flat land. On the yellow land, apart from a mountain peak more than a thousand feet high, there was a huge dark cave entrance at the foot of the mountain. All kinds of traces were scattered around it, as if it led to the depths of the earth.
"Someone actually got in first! But it seems that we entered not long ago, let's go!" Seeing this, the gray-robed man in the lead flashed a look of shock and anger between his eyebrows. After turning around and saying something to Liu Ming, his body was covered in black.
The air rolled up and flew into the cave entrance.
After Liu Ming carefully looked at a ditch-like movement mark that was more than a hundred feet long near the mountain peak, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his eyes.
It was obvious that the entrance of the cave was originally pressed down by the mountain peak, but now it was easily moved away with brute force, which shows the great strength of the person who took action.
"What are you waiting for, fellow Taoist? Let's go in too."
Just when Liu Ming was frightened, a cold voice came from behind. It was one of the remaining gray-robed demons Liu Ming who spoke.
Liu Ming looked back at the talking demon, snorted softly, and then disappeared into the big hole below.
The remaining six gray-robed demons naturally followed closely.
