Chapter 527 City

The bright lights hit the magic array, making a deafening roar. The light and darkness intertwined and collided, splashing countless energy ripples, and the entire space was filled with this strong energy fluctuation.

However, this light seemed endless, and it hit the magic array wave after wave.

Although the mysterious man in black robe and the powerful demon clan were supporting the magic array with all their strength, they gradually became a little tired. Their faces became more gloomy, and there was a trace of panic in their eyes.

Fang Yue took this opportunity to quietly move towards the edge of the space. He knew that this was a good time to get out. If he could escape from this space in the chaos, he might be able to get rid of these two powerful enemies.

In the process of moving, Fang Yue found that the clouds not far away seemed to have become thinner, and he could vaguely see a place behind the clouds that looked like an exit, emitting a faint light.

Fang Yue was delighted, and he didn't care about much at the moment, and ran towards the direction of the suspected exit with all his strength.

But before he ran far, the light that continued to hit the magic array suddenly changed.

The originally scattered light began to gather together and gradually formed a huge light ball, which contained the energy of destroying the world.

"No! What the hell is this!"

The demon clan strongman roared in horror. He could feel that the power contained in this light ball was not something they could easily resist.

The black-robed mysterious man also had a solemn face. He swung the iron rod in his hand faster and chanted more and more urgently, trying to strengthen the protection of the magic array.

Just as the light ball was about to hit the magic array, the light ball suddenly burst out with a dazzling and extremely strong light. The strong light instantly broke through the defense of the magic array and stabbed straight at the black-robed mysterious man and the demon clan strongman like a sharp blade.

"Ah!" The two screamed at the same time. After being hit by the strong light, their bodies flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, and fell heavily to the ground. Black blood kept spurting out of their mouths. Obviously, they were seriously injured.

Fang Yue witnessed this scene and was surprised and relieved. Surprised that this mysterious light had such a powerful power, fortunately, this light solved the big trouble for him.

However, he did not dare to delay for a moment and continued to run wildly in the direction of the suspected exit.

When he finally ran behind the clouds, he found that there was indeed an exit there, and the exit was emitting a soft light, as if calling him to leave this dangerous place.

Fang Yue rushed into the exit without any hesitation.

After passing through the exit, Fang Yue found himself in a quiet valley with green trees, lush flowers and plants, a clear stream gurgling, and some strange herbs beside the stream, exuding a faint medicinal fragrance.

Fang Yue breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that he had temporarily gotten rid of the two enemies, but his injuries were still serious and he had to find a place to heal and recover as soon as possible.

He walked along the stream, looking for a suitable place. As he moved forward, he picked some herbs from time to time to prepare for healing.

Not long after, Fang Yue stopped in front of a hidden cave in the valley. The entrance of the cave is not big, but there is a peaceful atmosphere inside.

Fang Yue walked into the cave, found a dry place in the cave and sat cross-legged, then began to use the mental method of "Shadow Illusion Yuan Jue" and combined it with the herbs he picked to heal his wounds and restore his vitality.

He knew that although he had escaped temporarily, the two enemies would definitely not give up. After they recovered from their injuries, they would definitely continue to look for his traces. He must recover his strength as soon as possible to face them again and protect the peace of the human and demon worlds.

A few days later, Fang Yue's injuries gradually improved, and his vitality also recovered a lot. He walked out of the cave and looked at the beautiful scenery of the valley, but he was still worried about the movements of the two enemies.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a familiar breath looming at the edge of the valley.

Fang Yue was shocked. Could it be that the two enemies caught up so quickly?

He clenched his sword and used the concealment technique in "Shadow Illusion Yuan Jue" to hide his figure and sneaked towards the direction where the breath came from quietly.

After getting closer, Fang Yue found that it was not the two enemies, but a wounded little demon beast.

This little demon beast looked cute, but there were several obvious wounds on its body, and it was lying on the ground shivering.

Fang Yue's heart moved, he remembered that he had also been seriously injured and was treated with herbs in this valley. Now seeing this injured little demon beast, he couldn't help but feel compassion.

He slowly appeared and walked towards the little demon beast. The little demon beast was scared to flee when it noticed someone approaching, but the injuries on its body made it unable to move.

Fang Yue gently comforted it, and then took some herbs from the cave to treat the wounds of the little demon beast.

Under Fang Yue's careful care, the little demon beast's injuries gradually improved. It seemed to feel Fang Yue's kindness and began to get close to Fang Yue.

After a few days, the little demon beast's injuries were completely recovered. It jumped around Fang Yue happily, as if expressing its gratitude.

During this period, Fang Yue also continued to practice the "Shadow Illusionary Art", and his strength has been further improved.

"The demonic energy is a more refined force than the primordial energy, and the quality level is higher, so the creatures infected by the demonic energy, whether they are human or monster, will be much stronger than before!"

After recovering from his injuries, Fang Yue thought.

After knowing this, Fang Yue felt even more heavy-hearted. The mysterious man in black robe and the powerful demon clan were already powerful, and they had been practicing with the higher-quality demon energy for a long time. It would undoubtedly be more difficult to defeat them.

But the determination in his eyes did not waver at all. Now that he knew the reason why the enemy was so powerful, he had to find a way to deal with it.

"So, the realm above the Grandmaster is probably related to this high-level energy."

Fang Yue thought to himself that since this demon energy was so special and could greatly increase the strength of the cultivator, the realm above the Grandmaster might really be closely related to this kind of high-level energy.

Perhaps the key to breaking through to a higher realm lies in whether one can control and reasonably use the power as refined as demon energy, while resisting the erosion and negative effects it may bring.

He looked down at the little demon beast that was still jumping happily beside him, thinking that there might be an opportunity hidden in this valley that would allow him to further understand this high-level energy and even find a way to break through.

After all, not only did he recover from his injuries here, but his strength was also improved. Maybe there are more secrets waiting for him to discover.

So Fang Yue decided to take the little demon beast to explore the valley again.

They walked along a winding path in the valley, surrounded by green trees. The sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, forming patches of light, which fell on the ground in a mottled manner.

As Fang Yue walked, he carefully paid attention to the movements around him, not missing any signs of possible clues.

The little demon beast jumped in front to lead the way, stopping from time to time to smell the ground or the surrounding flowers and plants, as if looking for something special.

When he walked to the depths of a quiet valley, Fang Yue noticed a strange energy fluctuation that was vague.

This fluctuation was different from the vitality fluctuation he was familiar with in the past, and it was also subtly different from the evil demon fluctuation. It exuded a deep and mysterious breath.

Fang Yue was delighted, and his intuition told him that there might be important clues related to high-level energy hidden here.

He walked slowly in the direction of the energy fluctuations, pushed aside a dense bush in front of him, and saw a hidden valley depression in front of him.

In the depression, there was an ancient stone platform, which was engraved with mysterious runes and patterns around it. These runes and patterns emitted a faint light, as if telling a long history.

On the stone platform was placed a crystal emitting a faint blue light. The energy fluctuations around the crystal were the source of the strange fluctuations that Fang Yue had just noticed.

Fang Yue approached the stone platform carefully. He could clearly feel that the crystal with a faint blue light was emitting a strong attraction. When he was only a few steps away from the stone platform, the ground under his feet suddenly emitted a faint light, and mysterious runes emerged from the ground and slowly spread towards the stone platform.

Fang Yue was startled and instinctively wanted to retreat, but he found that his feet seemed to be fixed and could not move. At this time, the little demon beast was roaring anxiously on the side, but he did not dare to approach rashly.

The runes quickly climbed up the stone platform, blending with the original runes and patterns on the stone platform, and instantly burst out a strong light. The light enveloped Fang Yue, and he only felt a strong force pulling his body, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.

Wrapped in the light, Fang Yue's figure gradually disappeared in the valley. The little demon beast watched Fang Yue being teleported away. After turning around anxiously for a few times, it ran towards the depths of the valley, as if to find the power to help Fang Yue.

After a dizzy spell, Fang Yue slowly opened his eyes and found himself in a mountain forest.

"Here, the vitality here is so active!"

Fang Yue was surprised and happy. He had never felt such active vitality, as if every inch of the air here was filled with vigorous vitality and energy.

He stood up and looked around, only to see that the mountain forest was lush and green, with ancient trees towering, branches and leaves intertwined, and the sun could only shine through the gaps to cast mottled light and shadows.

The forest was filled with light mist, and the mist presented a dreamlike scene under the active flow of vitality.

Fang Yue felt that this place was completely different from the Wei Dynasty.

In the Wei Dynasty, although vitality was also distributed, it was far less dense and active than here.

The vitality there was more like a calm stream, while the vitality here was like a surging river, full of endless vitality.

He looked at this unfamiliar forest curiously, and every step he took could feel that the land under his feet seemed to be emitting vitality, just like the earth was breathing.

The trees here were also different from what he had seen before. The trunks were thick and covered with strange patterns, and those patterns were faintly flickering, as if they were echoing with the surrounding vitality.

Continuing to go deeper into the forest, Fang Yue heard the sound of gurgling water. Following the sound, he saw a wide stream.

The water in the stream was clear and the surface was sparkling, and every drop of water seemed to contain abundant vitality.

He squatted down and put his hand into the water, and a cool and energetic feeling instantly spread throughout his body.

He was surprised to find that the vitality of the stream water could slowly flow into his body along the meridians of his arms, automatically nourishing his internal organs and meridians.

Just as Fang Yue was immersed in the nourishment of the stream water's vitality, he suddenly heard a whistling sound.

He stood up alertly, holding the sword tightly, and looked in the direction of the sound.

He saw a huge flying bird rushing out from the woods. The feathers of the bird were shining with colorful light, and its wings were several feet wide.

After circling over Fang Yue's head, it made a sharp cry and flew towards the depths of the forest.

Fang Yue continued to move forward and soon saw a city built on the top of the mountain.

Fang Yue's heart moved. This city built on the top of the mountain exuded a mysterious and ancient atmosphere, which made him curious about what secrets were hidden in it.

He quickened his pace and walked towards the direction of the city. Along the way, he still paid close attention to the movements around him and did not dare to slack off.

As he got closer and closer to the city, Fang Yue could see the appearance of the city more clearly.

The city wall was tall and thick, built of huge stones. There were faint traces of runes on the stones, as if telling the long history of this city.

There was a tower standing at intervals on the city wall. The flags on the top of the towers fluttered in the wind, but the patterns on the flags had long been blurred and unrecognizable.

At this moment, in front of the gate of this city, people were coming and going, and it was very lively.

The people coming in and out had different expressions. Some were in a hurry, as if they were in a hurry; some were leisurely, strolling slowly, as if enjoying the atmosphere in the city.

Fang Yue stood aside and observed these people carefully.

He found that many people's clothes were embroidered with some strange patterns, either symbolizing a certain family sect, or containing special meanings, which was very different from the clothing style he had seen in the Wei Dynasty.

Moreover, the vitality fluctuations emanating from these people were also of different strengths. Some were relatively weak, obviously they were just starting to practice; some were vigorous and strong, and people dared not underestimate them.

The city gate was wide open, and two guards stood at the door.

The two guards were burly, wearing heavy armor, holding spears, with sharp eyes, watching the passers-by vigilantly.

Their armor was also engraved with runes, emitting faint light, which must have special protective effects.

Fang Yue followed the crowd into the city, and saw that the streets in the city were crisscrossed and the shops on both sides were full of dazzling goods.

There were shops selling all kinds of strange magic weapons, those magic weapons flashed with mysterious light, and the runes were looming, as if telling their extraordinary origins and powerful power;

There were medicine shops selling rare elixirs, and the elixirs exuded bursts of fragrance, attracting passers-by to stop;

There were also some bookstores selling cultivation secrets, which were filled with ancient scrolls. Many practitioners flipped through them and explored, hoping to find a method suitable for improving their strength. (End of this chapter)
