Chapter 1045

According to the plan, Qin Qi used the Invisibility Technique to pass through Feiliu City and arrived at the Demon Slaying Area.

Although Feiliu City also served as a fortification, it primarily restricted demon attacks, so naturally, they wouldn’t expect someone heading towards the Demon Slaying Area.

And once he entered the Demon Slaying Area, a wave of familiarity surged through his heart.

"The second time entering the Demon Slaying Area, this feeling is indeed familiar!" Qin Qi thought silently.

The same perpetual darkness, the entire environment was enveloped in a blood-red scent.

Remembering his days when he had just entered the Foundation Establishment Stage and could traverse the entire Demon Slaying Area, now he was at the Fake Core Stage, yet it was just crossing part of the distance.

The difficulty for him, naturally, had been reduced by an unknown degree.

Indeed, as he had thought.

In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.

During these two days, Qin Qi was cautious within the Demon Slaying Area, proceeding step by step towards the highest battlefield marked on the map.

On this journey, he mostly activated the Invisibility Technique. If his mana was insufficient, he would pause to rest for a while, finally using the century-old Spirit Plant he obtained earlier to help restore himself.

Thus back and forth.

"Only half a day’s journey left," Qin Qi said.

The Spirit Evil Woman took a light breath, "Master, why does it seem like you’re so familiar with the environment of this Demon Slaying Area? Throughout the journey, you’ve accurately avoided the densely packed areas of demons and managed to pass through without alerting any of them!"

Qin Qi chuckled, "Haha, back in my Foundation Establishment Stage, I had traversed over half of the Demon Slaying Area. Now I’m only crossing a small part, naturally it’s nothing for me."

"Thinking about it, both inside and outside the Secret Realm, there aren’t many who can claim to know the Demon Slaying Area better than I do."

Therefore, this behavior, which poses enormous risks to others, actually isn’t much to him.

With Qin Qi saying so, the Spirit Evil Woman was amazed, "Master, you..."

Qin Qi smiled slightly, "Alright, there’s still half a day’s journey left. This last half-day will be the most challenging!"

The Spirit Evil Woman felt uneasy at heart.

After all, she had put all her bets on Qin Qi.

If Qin Qi perished, it would mean her gamble was utterly mistaken!

But the result amazed her greatly.

Qin Qi seemed incredibly familiar with the Demon Slaying Area.

Throughout the journey, he accurately avoided all large-scale demon movement areas.

Just like that, another two hours passed...

In a desolate Demon Slaying Area.

A team of four human cultivators emerged!

The leader, wearing a unique blue dress with bare jade feet, appeared to be in her early twenties, with long jet-black hair like a waterfall, and exquisite facial features!

Her attire had a touch of minority ethnic style.

And her appearance was country-toppling, rarely seen.

Her cultivation had also reached the Fake Core Stage.

The people beside her, also cultivators with quite remarkable cultivation, had reached the eighth and ninth layers of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

However, the young lady’s face was pale at the moment, evidently having suffered some injuries.

"Second Miss, are you alright!" Several youth-like servants asked in panic.

The young lady known as Second Miss took a deep breath, biting her red lips, "No idle talk now, the most urgent task is to escape the pursuit of this Elite Demon!"

"What bad luck, never thought we’d encounter an Elite Demon."

Upon hearing Elite Demon, everyone’s face showed an unpleasant expression.

They now extended their Sea of Consciousness, clearly sensing the pursuing demon behind them.

Moreover, the speed of this Elite Demon was getting faster.

"Not good, Miss, this Elite Demon is catching up..."

The servants shouted nervously.

Second Miss’s beautiful eyes narrowed.

Quickly, in their vision, a huge demon entirely crimson, with a particularly cold aura, appeared before them.

The servants swallowed when they saw the demon’s aura, "Miss, soon, you go first. We’ll hold off this Elite Demon!"

Second Miss bit her silver teeth, "Don’t be delusional, the combat power of this Elite Demon, none of us can escape alone. The only chance is to fight together; maybe we still have a chance to survive!"

Although they said so.

But all four knew.

Even if the four joined forces, dealing with one Elite Demon was as difficult as climbing the sky.

And the Elite Demon let out a mocking laugh.

Then it spoke in awkward language, "Ji Family’s daughter. Capturing you will make the Ji Family Head comply..."

As it spoke, it lightly slapped its claws forward.

Immediately, rolling Evil Qi pressed down on everyone in an instant.

Sensing the overwhelming Evil Qi coming, several servants widened their eyes, swiftly employing methods to counterattack.

Second Miss also unfolded her mana, engaging in battle.

However, the four thought the skirmish with this Elite Demon could withstand for a moment.

But, just in an instant.

The mana barrier formed by the four was easily shattered by the Elite Demon before them!

"Not good, Miss, go quickly. You must not fall into this demon’s hands!"

Second Miss’s eyes were filled with panic, yet she understood the importance, drawing out a talisman from her Storage Pouch.

Chanting softly, the talisman ignited in flames.

She suddenly spat a mouthful of life essence onto the talisman.

Once activated, her speed soared.

But the Elite Demon didn’t even look, sneering and simultaneously sending massive Evil Qi directly to grab Second Miss.

Second Miss hadn’t fully activated the talisman’s effect when the Elite Demon’s Evil Qi engulfed her.

"Second Miss!"

The servants widened their eyes.

But before they could say anything else, countless Evil Qi had already started sweeping towards them.

"No!"

Everyone showed absolute despair.

Yet no one noticed, at this moment, a sudden swarm of Flying Swords swept over.

The Flying Swords emitted pure golden light, and upon arrival, effortlessly cut through the Elite Demon’s Evil Qi.

Not only saving several servants but also successfully rescuing Second Miss who was just caught!

Everyone was dumbfounded, then revealed expressions of joy.

"Is it a Core Formation Stage senior who noticed the anomaly here?"

Second Miss steadied herself and turned to look.

Only to find the person looked even younger than her!

The newcomer, naturally, was none other than Qin Qi, who had rushed here all along.
