Xiao Hongfei cautiously glanced back and said, "Brother Lu, we'd better be careful of that monster attacking from behind."
Although Lu Kun was very curious about "Warcraft", after hearing these words, he nodded to Qin Yushu. The latter understood, patted the spirit beast bag on his waist, and a majestic chimpanzee appeared in the passage.
The aura of the fifth-level monster surging out was the mountain black ape, Dahei, that Qin Yushu brought back from Demon Spirit Island.
Fortunately, the passage is relatively spacious now. If the terrain was narrow before, it would probably be able to fill the passage directly.
Dahei looked at Lu Kun happily and growled excitedly.
Lu Kun patted Dahei's thick arm and said: "Brother Xiao, I am in the front of the formation to resist the attack, and there is a mid-level peak bronze armored corpse on the first floor behind for defense. Its defense is much stronger than mine.
If we add Dahei, a mountain black ape, to the rear, we will basically be foolproof."
"And as long as the enemy is approaching, Xiaojin can sense it and issue a warning, and we can prepare in advance."
Xiao Hongfei walked to Dahei at the back of the team, feeling much safer.
Lu Kun asked: "Brother Xiao, I have never heard of Warcraft. What is its origin?"
Xiao Hongfei calmed down and explained: "I also saw this monster in an ancient book in the Shangqing Sect."
"It is said that it is a monster unique to the ancient demon clan. Under the same level, its strength is stronger than ordinary monsters. Only some monsters with extraordinary talents can rival it."
"But the monsters have already died out in ancient times."
"According to what Brother Lu said, this monster is a badger beast, so it was transformed into a monster."
"Warcraft is a creature unique to the ancient demon clan, and only the ancient demon clan can produce it."
Speaking of this, Xiao Hongfei showed an uneasy look on his face and said: "In other words, Na Tian Renjie was not taken away by the ancient demon cultivator, but by the ancient demon clan."
Lu Kun became even more confused and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Xiao, what is the difference between the ancient demon clan and the ancient demon cultivator?"
Xiao Hongfei's face turned slightly pale and he said: "The classics don't say much. I just know that the ancient demons are a foreign race and are mortal enemies of our human monks. Moreover, the demonic skills of the human race are all derived from the demons."
"As for the strength and magical powers of the demons, there is no record in the classics."
When everyone heard Xiao Hongfei's description, they all showed complicated expressions. At this moment, they thought of the relationship between the Red Refining Sect, the ancient demon clan, and the Red Refining Demonic Art.
Especially Lu Kun, when Tian Renjie was killed by him on Demon Island, half of his body was shattered, and the remaining body fell into the silver restriction at the center of Demon Island.
Now he can surmise that the central area of the Demonic Island is likely to contain the remnant souls of the ancient demons, and Tian Renjie's still-undead body happens to be the medium for these ancient demons.
"So, the Demon Island that appears once every few hundred years was created by the ancient humans to seal away the ancient demons? Our Demon Island is very similar to the Demon Island. The ancient demons also came here, and there are differences between the two.
What’s the connection?”
Many questions suddenly popped up in Lu Kun's mind, but then he shook his head. Now was not the time to think about these things.
He looked around at the heavy faces of the others and said calmly:
"Guys, the fierce badger monster just now is extremely powerful. In such a narrow place, its combat power is even higher than that of the Li brothers. I am afraid that the strength of this monster in the magic cave is second only to that of the ancient demon clan."
"But have you ever thought about the fact that after we entered the Demon Cave, the first thing we encountered was such a powerful enemy? Where did the other monks from the Demon Cave go?"
Hearing Lu Kun's question, the others thought for a moment and showed a bit of disbelief.
Such a strong combat force was dispatched all at once. It is very likely that there are no other monks in the Danjie stage in this devil's cave who can dispatch it.
There was a hint of reminiscence in Lu Kun's eyes, and he murmured: "Maybe in this devil's cave, apart from this vicious badger monster, there is only the demon who occupied Tian Renjie's body."
Qin Yushu said in disbelief: "How is it possible, junior brother, didn't you say that no one has come in or out of the Demon Cave in the past few years? It is impossible for these people to disappear out of thin air."
Lu Kun said slowly: "I have seen a method that is somewhat similar to Chi Lian Demon Kung Fu. It collects a large amount of blood essence from monks in the late stage of Qi refining period and sacrifices it to the blood refining pool, thus providing powerful Qi and blood energy to help the cultivators build immortals.
base."
"The Red Demonic Refining Technique has entered the elixir formation stage, and it also collects a large amount of blood essence from the later stage of foundation establishment."
"If Tian Renjie was really taken away by the ancient demons, then the red demonic skills were restored by them. Why can't he use all the demon cave disciples as blood sacrifices to improve their cultivation?"
What Lu Kun said may seem a bit jumpy to others, but judging from the fragmentary situation after entering the Demon Cave and the passage in front of him, it is very likely that this is the case.
It's nothing more than Lu Kun's idea that the old ghost Murong who was lurking in the Iron Fist Sect taught the Vajra Technique to the sect and developed his own disciples. After these people became successful in martial arts, he would destroy the sacrifice and assist him.
Advance to foundation building.
This is very similar to the situation in the Demon Cave before us.
Suddenly, Xiao Jin, who was sitting cross-legged on Zhao Qingtian's shoulders, shouted again.
Then, a black shadow flashed across the front of the passage.
"The badger monster is here again?"
"Hey, it didn't attack?"
Xiao Hongfei had been on guard, and his consciousness noticed the badger beast leaving. His eyes lit up and he said: "This monster is definitely no match for so many of us in a head-on battle."
"Why don't we destroy this beast first!"
Lu Kun pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "The badger beast is known for its fighting instincts and extremely high intelligence. It wants us to chase it. After all, with its speed in this passage, only me and the Taoist Corpse Master can catch up.
"
"As long as Taoist Corpse Corpse and I are separated from you, this cunning monster will attack you."
Xiao Hongfei's expression froze, and after thinking for a moment, he realized that what Lu Kun said was probably the truth.
This is the home ground of the vicious badger monster, and he knows the passages in the devil's cave very well. After suffering a loss just now, he will definitely change his tactics and not fight head-on.
Qin Yushu suddenly chuckled, patted Xiao Hongfei's shoulder and said, "Brother Xiao, we don't need to pay attention to this monster. We can continue to go deeper."
"According to our current formation, there is Junior Brother Lu in front, and there are intermediate-level bronze-armored corpses and fifth-level mountain black apes in the back. It can't take advantage of it."
"And we are on guard. We only need our junior brother and the bronze-armored corpse to block the first round of attacks, and the magic weapon will be able to catch up in time. No matter how strong its defense is, it cannot withstand so many magic weapons."
Lu Kun nodded in agreement, but then he thought of something and his expression changed slightly: "No, it seems we have to hurry up."
"If the demon that has taken over Tian Renjie's body really sacrifices all the monks in the Demon Cave, they must be practicing in seclusion. The badger beast's move is to delay time."
"The place of retreat must be the place where the demonic energy is strongest. Let's set off quickly."
Hearing Lu Kun's urgent tone, several other people also looked stern, maintained their formation, and continued to walk forward quickly.
The ones who looked most nervous at this time were Zhao Qingtian and others. The expected enemies in the foundation building period did not appear. And if Lu Kun's inference was correct, there were only Tian Renjie and Warcraft here, and they might not be able to intervene at all.
Lu Kun had no choice but to take them with him. Since they were body cultivators and protected by the corpse Taoist, it would not be too dangerous.
In this way, Lu Kun and others ignored the vicious badger beasts that appeared from time to time, sensing the intensity of the demonic energy in the air, gradually deepening.
As they expected, they did not encounter any monks along the way. They passed through many large passages similar to those before, which contained the aura of residual magic circles used by monks to practice in seclusion, and no one was present.
After about a few hours, Lu Kun and others arrived at the deepest part of the cave. A light red cave entrance appeared in front of them, and the ferocious badger beast stood in front of the cave entrance, watching them eagerly.
