My beast can't be a demon.

Chapter 247 Rapid Growth

The strength of these demon cultivators who were suppressed here by Patriarch Yaoyue has already been greatly reduced.

But they were once powerful demon cultivators, and even though they are now just lingering souls, they should still not be underestimated.

After Zhou Lu dealt with the first demon cultivator, he put Yu Xin and Yu Yanyan on alert.

After a while, the group encountered the second demon cultivator.

This time the opponent didn't waste any time and directly tried to launch a sneak attack and take over the body.

It’s a pity that Bai Mengjun blocked the opponent’s attempt to take over his body.

As a mushroom grew vigorously, his presence was also sensed by Zhou Lu.

Hanabi used the leaves of the flying branches to sense and find the opponent's position.

This time, Xiao Caocao was more decisive and ate the other one in one bite using the insect catcher on its tail.

Yu Xin looked at the fireworks that seemed to be chewing something, and immediately realized that there was some hidden enemy here.

Zhou Lu didn't explain much: "Leave the enemies here to me, you look around to see if there is anything worth collecting."

You really don’t want to say that.

As a prison cell for imprisoning demonic cultivators, there are indeed many good things in the ruins of the Yaoyue Sect.

Some of them are natural treasures that have grown over the past thousand years by absorbing the energy dissipated by immortals, while others are simply magical weapons of these evil cultivators.

As one of the most powerful immortals, Patriarch Yaoyue naturally looked down on these magical weapons, so he just threw them here.

Beastmasters also have props.

It’s a pity that many of the immortals’ magic weapons are not compatible with beastmasters.

But fortunately, there are many people in the real world who are willing to spend a lot of money to buy these magic weapons at auctions.

Some are simply rich guys collecting.

But Zhou Lu also felt that there might be some hidden immortals who would come and take advantage of the situation.

After all, these magical weapons that cannot be used by beastmasters generally won’t be auctioned at a very high price.

Just by collecting these materials and magic weapons, Yu Xin had already returned with a full load.

The cell has distinct layers.

The floor where the group is located should be the weakest one in terms of overall strength.

All that appeared before Hua Huo were broken souls of cultivators.

This is caused by the immortal's soul being unable to resist the passage of time when hungry.

Zhou Lu also gradually found the pattern.

Along the way, they saw many spells with words written on them on the walls.

Every talisman here represents a sealed demon cultivator.

There are a total of thirty-three talismans on this level.

But in fact, Zhou Lu only encountered about three or four of them.

After absorbing the memories from these unfortunate guys who were eaten by fireworks, Zhou Lu also roughly understood the general situation of this cell.

This relic once imprisoned countless demon cultivators at its peak. On this simplest level alone, there were as many as 123 demon cultivators permanently sealed here.

However, as Patriarch Yaoyue was killed by the beastmaster at the time during the Anti-Immortal War, it directly led to the collapse of the entire Yaoyue Sect.

Although Patriarch Yaoyue sealed these bastard demon cultivators, he never cut off their food supply.

In order to ensure that the food maintains the best taste and impact, he would even continue to deliver enough food to the criminals in the cage.

Unfortunately, Patriarch Yaoyue died.

After his death, this place was quickly forgotten.

Unable to escape the powerful seal, the hunger deep in their souls drives them nearly insane.

Yes. Even if the physical essence is destroyed, the immortal cannot control his own horrific desires.

So, these demon cultivators turned their attention to the demon cultivators who were imprisoned with them.

During those days, the place was in complete chaos. The starving demon cultivators stretched out their claws to their former cellmates who had boasted about their crimes together.

As more than a thousand years passed, most of the demon cultivators on each floor of this prison had died in their respective civil wars.

Those who can survive in this situation are either extremely strong or extremely good at surviving.

Otherwise, with the strength of the immortal's soul, just over a thousand years would not be enough to cause most of the demon cultivators to perish naturally.

According to the memories left behind by the previous demon cultivators, the further down you go, the stronger the sealed demon cultivators will be.

Considering the internal circulation background of the past thousand years, the surviving demon cultivators, even if only their souls are left, are definitely existences that cannot be underestimated.

The demon cultivators on the first level were about at the second level in strength, so it was very easy for Hua Huo to deal with them.

Soon, under the guidance of Crescent Moon, Zhou Lu found the entrance to the next level.

At this moment, Yu Xin and Yu Yanyan have basically identified Zhou Lu as the backbone of this team.

They chose to completely trust Zhou Lu's judgment.

He followed Zhou Lu down to the second floor without hesitation.

As soon as he arrived here, Zhou Lu felt that something was obviously wrong.

It is obviously colder here than the previous floor.

"Be careful, something feels wrong." Yu Xin felt a hint of danger.

Her intuition has always been very accurate, so she decisively summoned all her followers to protect the three people present.

At the same time, Zhou Lu summoned Benben who was recuperating.

Let Benben activate the taunt skill, and then be held high by Huahuo and walk around in this level of the ruins.

As long as someone has the desire to attack him or Hanabi, the other party will definitely attack at all costs.

In fact it is.

Only a short while after Benben appeared, obvious signs of attack appeared on its surface.

The opponent's strength is good and can shake the surface of Benben.

It’s a pity that this force is not enough to cause real harm to Benben.

Zhou Lu estimated that the other party probably had the ability of the early third level.

The second level actually has the strength of the third level?

Zhou Lu hesitated in his heart, but his hands never relaxed for a moment.

Before leaving, Zhou Lu drew all the skill cards he had saved up.

Many of the skills that were not suitable for Hanabi were learned by Benben.

It has to be said that the more skills Benben knows, the more likely he is to save his life from the enemy.

This time, the skill demonstrated by Benben is to mark the source of the attack after being attacked and keep it visible.

The opponent's attack obviously triggered Benben's skill, and his position was directly located.

He is worthy of being a demon cultivator who can cause harm to others, his reaction is really quick.

Almost at the moment when Benben revealed his identity, he attacked Zhou Lu directly.

The biggest weakness of the Beastmaster system lies in the Beastmaster himself!

When Zhou Lu saw the demon cultivator's soul rushing towards him, the corners of his mouth curled up and he laughed.

Then he punched the other person in the face without hesitation.

Haha, idiot.

Who would use fists to fight against souls!

However, in the next second, the unlucky demon cultivator was knocked away.

Then he entered into Huahuo's insect trap.

Ordinary people don't have the means to attack souls, so when facing such a powerful ghost, Yu Xin's first reaction is to escape. It's better to leave here quickly while his team hasn't suffered any losses from the opponent's attack.

Otherwise, you would just stand there and get beaten for nothing.

But before Yu Xin could convey the message of retreat, he saw Zhou Lu killing a ghost with three punches.

What the hell? What's going on?

When did the human body become so strong?

Yu Xin was shocked.

And how did Zhou Lu have the ability to cause harm to ghost-type individuals?
This is all thanks to the white dream fungus.

While helping Zhou Lu and his group resist possession, it also gave them the ability to touch ghost-like creatures.

As for physical fitness, it is probably impossible for outsiders to replicate it.

Before, Zhou Lu would activate the [Repay] skill whenever he had the chance, so that he could gain some attributes from Hua Huo.

Because of the blessing of Benben's racial skill [Dragon Talisman], Benben can allow it or its teammates to gain permanent improvement in some attributes every day.

After persisting for so many days, and with the rapid improvement of Fireworks' attributes, Zhou Lu has also possessed considerable strength.

As expected, the Beastmaster still regards preserving himself as his first priority. He either tries every possible way to survive the enemy, or kills the enemy.

With this thought in mind, Zhou Lu led his group forward.

After seeing Zhou Lu defeat the enemy, Yu Xin and Yu Yanyan gave up the idea of ​​making trouble.

Their pets do not have the ability to cause damage to ghosts. Instead of releasing skills to injure teammates, it is better not to cause trouble.

Yu Xin quickly found her position: that was to protect Zhou Lu.

Yu Yanyan summoned her own auxiliary pet to provide treatment and various buffs to Huo Huo.

Although Zhou Lu felt that he would not need this kind of thing at his current level, it was always better to be prepared for anything.

Following the same method, Zhou Lu easily cleaned the next two floors.

The enemies on these two levels are not as strong as Hanabi in overall strength.

Zhou Lu couldn't help but say that he was a little worried. After all, if these demon cultivators really came together, it would definitely be a huge pressure for Hua Huo.

Fortunately, the crazy internal devouring over the years has made them hostile to each other, so they did not come together at the first opportunity.

This gives Hua Huo a good opportunity to defeat them one by one.

"Okay." Zhou Lu stopped at the entrance to the newest floor. "The next floor is too dangerous, and I don't have the confidence to protect your safety. It's better for you not to go in."

Yu Xin was not angry at Zhou Lu's words.

Along the way, she finally came to realize Zhou Lu's strength.

Although I don't know what the opponent's upper limit is, it is obviously beyond my reach.

Yu Xin nodded quickly, and then agreed on a meeting time and place with Zhou Lu.

After confirming that everything was correct, Zhou Lu jumped down without hesitation, holding Hua Huo.

This time, it was not just Hua Huo and Ben Ben, Zhou Lu even summoned Yue Ya.

All around you can't see your fingers.

Fortunately, with the empathy of fireworks, Zhou Lu can still perceive the whole world well.

Based on the experience of the previous few levels, Zhou Lu suspected that he would encounter a powerful immortal with the level of a quasi-god on this level.

Fortunately, Huo Huo gained a lot of attributes and racial skills in the previous few waves of battles.

The most important thing is a lot of energy.

At this time, the aura of Fireworks had gradually become unstable.

Although it did not transform on the spot, the power accumulated in its body had clearly exceeded the limit that a third-level spiritual pet could withstand.

Hanabi desperately needed an object to vent her emotions on, to release the excess energy in her body.

Of course, even with such fireworks, it is not so easy to defeat the enemy of the fourth level of God of War.

Zhou Lu even summoned Yueya as the backbone of the battle.

There are not many enemies on this last level, only one.

This is the scariest thing.

This means that the other party is a being that emerged from the battles of countless quasi-god-level immortals, and must possess power that others can hardly imagine.

The facts were just as Zhou Lu had guessed.

As Fireworks followed Crescent Moon's guidance, they arrived at the cave where the enemy was. What caught everyone's eyes was a huge blue dragon.

No...it's not the mythical beast Azure Dragon, but the pressure it exerts on people has not diminished at all.

At the same time Zhou Lu discovered it, the other party also discovered himself.

This time, Zhou Lu was not in a hurry to let Hua Huo go up and deliver it.

He first sent out a few branches to test the enemy's strength.

As the division started, huge vine giants appeared in the environment.

Qinglong was obviously startled by the scene before him, but then he realized that these vine giants were not very strong, so he quickly adjusted his mentality.

It roared and fought directly with the vine giants.

For a while, there was no clear winner between the two sides.

Although the little green dragon can easily destroy any vine giant, it still feels uncomfortable facing a constant stream of enemies.

In fact, if it were just this, Xiao Qinglong would probably still be able to win later.

It’s a pity that Zhou Lu has never had any virtue of fighting.

Since I can win by a sneak attack, there's no need for me to go up and fight the opponent head-on.

Since we can defeat the minority with more, I won't force myself to suffer.

"Yueya! Go up and help!" Zhou Lu decisively gave orders to Yueya who was standing beside him.

When Yueya heard Zhou Lu's order, excitement flashed in her eyes.

Although the other party is also a quasi-god.

But Yueya didn't think that such a quasi-god would have enough power.

While he was speaking, Zhou Lu's three pets started fighting with the enemy.

With the participation of the quasi-god Yueya, the battle situation quickly became one-sided.

Hanabi used her skill on herself.

Roar--!
As if sensing its own death, the dragon roared angrily in the direction of Zhou Lu.

Then the next second, its body seemed to be cursed and it instantly lost all its abilities.

Zhou Lu was shocked and immediately realized that this must be the power of the crescent moon.

Huahuo immediately seized this fleeting opportunity and used its vines to lift up the roaring little blue dragon.

As the vines entwine and the branches absorb, the power of the fireworks rises again.

Looking at the energetic Fireworks, Zhou Lu nodded with great satisfaction.

In this way, the main purpose of this trip has been achieved.

There is no need to do any tests now. Just by looking at his naked eyes, Zhou Lu can be sure that Huo Huo has reached a level where he can break through.

Just when Zhou Lu was about to turn around and leave, he heard Yueya suddenly say, "It seems there is someone else inside."

Anyone else?
Zhou Lu almost immediately turned around and looked in the direction Yueya mentioned.

Just sitting there alone.

His attire was exactly the same as the statue at the entrance.
