Chapter 111: The Road Back Home
"Demon rat?"
"fish?"
"Crab?"
"monkey?"
"..."
Yao Teng and the two maids saw Wangcai's performance and started to guess riddles cooperatively.
This guess resulted in more than twenty kinds of monsters!
Many of them do not exist near Qinghe City.
From this, we can infer that Wangcai once followed Cai Ji to a faraway place to hunt monsters, and the number of monsters eaten by it was extremely considerable!
After watching Wangcai's performance, Yao Teng began to feel puzzled.
Strange things happen every year, especially this year.
A while ago, the red haze arrived earlier than expected, and the monsters' attack on the city became irregular!
Then, the mythical Holy Word appeared again!
Now, there's another dog that accumulates spiritual power by eating monsters!
Is this world about to undergo drastic changes?
What secrets does Cai Ji have?
Yao Teng thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "Wangcai, where did the incident with Shopkeeper Cai happen?"
do not know!
Wangcai shook his head decisively.
Yao Teng was a little disappointed, so he simply told the two maids, "August 15th is coming soon, you and Wangcai stay here and don't go outside, lest you be caught by Mei Sangui's people! But you don't have to worry too much, as long as you haven't done anything to betray the human race, the Great God of Destiny will not do anything to you."
After saying that, he quickly left the guesthouse.
……
Nanzhou, looking towards Beicheng.
After a night of fierce fighting, the human defenders won a great victory.
Cai Ji looked at the corpses of monsters scattered outside the city. Although he was extremely greedy, he had to endure it.
The corpses of monsters will be collected by the Monster Suppression Bureau and used to make weapons, armor and elixirs. No one can pick them up for free.
So, he simply went to find Aunt Liu.
I plan to learn some more skills from my seniors.
But when they arrived at the dock, the old lady had disappeared.
When I returned to the city and asked, I found out that Grandma Liu and Eunuch Lei had left before dawn.
Maybe they went to support other cities.
"Ah! You left without saying goodbye."
Cai Ji originally fantasized about asking Thunder God to send him back to Zhongzhou, but in the end it was all in vain.
In desperation, he had to go find the local demon-suppressing guards as planned.
Previously, Scar San and others said that there was a secret road in the middle of the dense fog forest that connected Nanzhou and Zhongzhou, but only the people of the Demon Suppression Guard knew how to get there.
Cai Ji went to the Demon Suppression Bureau to ask and learned that the secret passage was in the "Wuguan" thousands of miles away. If he wanted to pass through the secret passage, he had to ask the Demon Suppression Bureau there for help.
Without hesitation, he got up and headed for Wuguan.
But before that, there is one important thing to do!
Cai Ji found a remote forest on the road, first used the Holy Word to create a barrier to conceal spiritual power, and then took out all the magic weapons in the mustard seed bag.
There are dozens of magical weapons containing spiritual power.
The lowest-level magic weapons, probably because their functions are relatively ordinary, do not contain much spiritual power, roughly equivalent to that of an ordinary monster leader.
The ones with the highest spiritual power may be top-level magic weapons used in combat. The spiritual power contained in them is vast and huge, even comparable to that of a superior demon king.
The things left behind by the Soul-Sucking Demon are truly extraordinary!
It claimed that it had torn several demon emperors to pieces with its bare hands, and it seemed that it was not bragging.
"Transfer all the spiritual power in this fan to me!"
"The spiritual power in the jade carving knife belongs to me!"
"This flute..."
"..."
Cai Ji followed what Grandma Liu said and began to transfer all the spiritual power in the magic weapon to himself.
Boom boom boom!
The enormous spiritual power released from the magic weapon knocked him to the ground again and again.
Cai Ji lay on the ground with his arms open, accepting everything.
The total amount of spiritual power contained in dozens of magic weapons is extremely astonishing.
Even though he killed several demon kings and minions, the spiritual power in his body was less than a few tenths of theirs.
Cai Ji was afraid that absorbing the spiritual power from the magic weapons would cause damage to them, or even cause them to completely malfunction, so he was reluctant to do it.
Now that I have no worries, I can get fat in one bite!
Originally, due to the large capacity of his meridians, the spiritual energy in his body looked thin like fog.
But now, the mist has turned into thick fog!
“The Western Emperor and those and monsters whose cultivation is inferior to his can’t see through my strength!” Thinking of how Granny Liu had easily seen through his cultivation before, Cai Ji cast another Holy Word spell on himself.
The reason why he took the Western Emperor as a reference was that he felt that the creature with the highest level of cultivation in the world should be the ancient Demon Emperor.
As long as it can't see through his strength, no one in this world will be able to see through him.
As expected, this Holy Word technique consumed a lot of spiritual energy.
But Cai Ji thought it was worth it.
Then, he practiced the Tianyuan Sutra for a while, and then began to experiment with various magic weapons.
……
Wuguan is an important border town in the northern part of Nanzhou.
This city was built in a valley between two mountains, guarding the central area of the dense fog forest and shouldering the important task of preventing forest monsters from moving south.
There are more than 50,000 soldiers and civilians in the city, and there are several satellite towns to the south.
Cai Ji rushed for several days and successfully arrived here.
After walking around the customs for a while, his eyes were opened again.
The construction of Wuguan City can only be described in two words:
rough!
Four huge city walls stretch across the several-mile-long canyon, dividing the canyon into three sections of varying sizes. The hilltops on both sides of the canyon are filled with various arrow towers and defense platforms.
Among the four city walls, the northernmost one faces outside the pass and has no gates on it.
Not far outside the wall is a dense fog forest. People in Nanzhou seldom go out, so the Demon Suppression Bureau simply saves the city gate and only opens a small door hole under the city wall for a few people to enter and exit.
There are no tall buildings in the small valley behind the city wall, which is usually only used to store supplies and equipment for defending the city.
If the battle to defend the city is not fierce, this section of the valley will be the preparation place for the defending troops.
If the first city wall is lost, the demon-suppressing guards can retreat to the higher second city wall and use the valley surrounded by two city walls as a urn.
Everyone should know the function of the city wall!
The two valleys separated by the three city walls at the back are the residential area and the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Bureau.
But the atmosphere in the city was a bit bleak.
Because just a few days ago, Wuguan experienced a brutal battle to defend the city.
Although the monster was successfully repelled, there were many casualties.
Cai Ji walked around the city, got to know the terrain, and then headed straight for the Demon Suppression Bureau.
But as soon as I reached the door, I was stopped.
"What are you doing?" The demon-suppressing guard at the gate asked arrogantly when he saw Cai Ji was dressed in ordinary clothes.
"To do things." Cai Ji replied.
"What do you want to do?" the guard asked.
"Important things." Cai Ji replied.
"What's the important matter?" the guard continued to ask.
"..."
Cai Ji knew that the other party was pestering him with the sole purpose of gaining some benefits.
This is a common problem among the lower-level demon-suppressing guards.
In the past, he would have certainly swallowed his anger and paid the entrance fee.
But now, he decided to teach the other party a lesson.
He decisively took out a small piece of silver, turned around and cast a blessing spell on the silver: "Whoever gets this silver by improper means will wet his pants on the spot!"
