I picked up the scattered attributes

But at that moment, the spider girl next to Feng Xia seemed to sense something, suddenly turned her head to look at her, and then the corners of her mouth turned up almost imperceptibly.

Bai Xiao's face immediately darkened.

I almost forgot that there was someone blocking my way between me and the young master!

"Pah! You little slut!"

Bai Xiao couldn't help but spit inwardly.

But soon, looking at the swarming horde of demonic beasts below, her face lit up with joy once more: "So many fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered... I'm sure I can make a fortune! When that happens, the young master will definitely look at me with new eyes, and then I won't be without a chance..."

The fox spirit Bai Xiao was happily imagining the future, while Feng Xia sat down not far away with a smile and began to meditate and regulate her breathing.

The previous battle was short but extremely dangerous, especially since he had refined an immortal golden elixir, which contained many mysteries that he needed to carefully comprehend and understand.

"No rush. Although I can enter and exit the Heavenly Ladder, the current Heavenly Ladder Divine Light does not have the effect of a ten-year dream. We still need to wait for three days."

As Feng Xia was pondering this, a thought suddenly popped into her head: "Come to think of it, this 'ten-year dream' tactic seems familiar..."

Three days passed by in a flash.

The once silent herd of demonic beasts suddenly stirred. Some scattered like birds and beasts, either because they hadn't obtained the Spirit-Breaking Talisman or were unwilling to pay the toll. Among the remaining beasts, a few rushed out first.

They quickly arrived at the entrance of the Heavenly Ladder toll station, not daring to be negligent in the slightest. They promptly paid the toll according to their cultivation level and then stepped through the gate.

Just then, Feng Xia suddenly flicked his finger, and one of the figures immediately screamed and flew backward, crashing down outside the Heavenly Ladder with a thud.

"Xia... Xia Donghai! Why?!" the demonic beast cried out in utter grief and indignation, "I've already paid the toll!"

"Then submit it again."

Feng Xia said with a smile.

……

Chapter 0285

After three days of fermentation, Xia Donghai's infamous reputation had already spread throughout the entire first floor.

Even at the foot of the central sacred mountain, the demonic beasts gathered before other paths had already learned of the horrifying news:

Their Holy Son... was defeated and killed by Xia Donghai!

It can be said that this battle shocked the world!

Regardless of what fate awaits Feng Xia after the Demon Emperor's Mausoleum closes, it is foreseeable that Xia Donghai's name will leave a significant mark on the history of the Demon Kingdom.

Therefore, after three days, the monsters that could not accept the "toll" had basically chosen to leave.

The rest of them were basically able to pay the toll, or they were determined to seize the opportunity on the ladder to heaven, no matter the cost.

The opening of the Heavenly Ladder was quiet and unnoticed, without causing much of a stir.

From a distance, one can only see the divine light enveloping the ladder to heaven trembling slightly before slowly opening to both sides, as if two invisible hands were gently lifting the curtain on a stage.

"what happened?"

"What kind of trouble is that wicked guy up to now?"

Therefore, at this moment, many monsters immediately bristled.

Surprisingly, some demonic beasts were kicked off the Heavenly Ladder by Feng Xia even after paying the toll. Could it be that this fierce god has come up with some new crooked idea?

If they can't get up even after paying the toll, then what are they wasting their time here for?

Ultimately, climbing the Heavenly Ladder isn't the only way to get to the second level!

"why?"

The monster that had been kicked down cried out in grief and indignation, "I clearly already paid the toll!"

"Then submit it again."

Upon hearing this, Feng Xia replied with a half-smile, "The toll is a toll, but before that, you followed Ying Daoyi's orders and launched an attack on me..."

"I remember clearly who made the move."

"I said before that I wouldn't kill indiscriminately here, but since you've already taken action, you'll have to pay the price."

A slight smile played on his lips as he slowly and deliberately said, "And this is the price."

Upon hearing this, the monster was immediately speechless.

What he really wanted to say was, "Why didn't you say this sooner! Why did you have to wait until he was on the ladder to heaven before kicking him down?"

And that kick just now was so powerful that it almost split his butt into three pieces!

"Well? Do you have any objections?" Feng Xia asked with a smile.

"No objections, I'll hand it in..."

The monster pondered for a long time before finally replying with a mournful face.

He had already paid two Spirit-Breaking Talismans, and if he didn't step onto the Heavenly Ladder, those two talismans would obviously be wasted, a situation he clearly didn't want to see.

So, there is only one answer.

Submit it again.

With this precedent set, the later monsters all put away their ulterior motives, prepared two sets of toll fees in advance, and obediently handed them over to Bai Xiao.

"Come on, everyone line up! Everyone gets a turn, so don't mess around! Hey, you over there cutting in line, don't think I didn't see you!"

Bai Xiao collected handfuls of spirit-breaking talismans, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons with laughter. The fox demon's tail swayed incessantly, and with a gentle sweep in front of her, the spirit-breaking talismans she had collected would vanish, their whereabouts unknown.

Just then, another scream rang out.

The second monster that paid double the toll was caught on the ladder to heaven. Before it could even stand up, a foot suddenly loomed large in its field of vision!

“Boo-hoo-hoo——”

It was a rather rare lantern demon, shaped like a huge red lantern. Its form quickly became illusory as the light flickered, trying to dodge the sudden kick.

However, it was of no use.

With a piercing scream (or so it seemed), the lantern demon was kicked down. Its single eye glared at Feng Xia, as if uttering a silent accusation:

"Waaaaah, baby!"

"Huh? This guy can't speak human language?"

Feng Xia, who was about to speak, blinked and suddenly stopped.

—Please, he can't understand your whining!

This was the first time he had encountered a demon beast that couldn't speak human language since entering the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons!

However, upon closer examination, this is not surprising. Although when a demon beast cultivates to a certain level, it can naturally speak human language, there is no rule of heaven and earth that stipulates that a demon beast must speak human language!

What was it just saying?

Feng Xia turned to look at Zhu Youniang.

However, the spider girl simply shrugged: "Asha, I don't understand either."

Feng Xia: "..."

So even among monsters, they don't completely understand each other's languages!

"In that case, the fact that demon beasts can speak human language after cultivating to a certain level may be a kind of need for unification. Otherwise, with so many races in the world, the concept of 'demon race' would not exist."

Moreover, before meeting him, Zhu Youniang had always stayed in the Forsaken Ancient Land and had never been in contact with the outside world.

It's understandable that they don't understand the languages ​​of other demon races.

A thought flashed through Feng Xia's mind, and Qing Lin, who was beside her, noticed this scene. The little girl tiptoed slightly and whispered a few words in Feng Xia's ear.

Feng Xia suddenly realized: "So that's what it meant?"

After clarifying the situation, Feng Xia quickly turned around and looked at the lantern demon lying on the ground:

"嘤嘤嘤!"

"The reason I kicked you off is simple."

Feng Xia stood with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance. His words were meant for the lantern demon, but also for the other demons behind him.

"Of course it's because you paid two tolls, but that doesn't mean you don't have to kick me!"

Lantern Demon: "...Waaaaah, baby!"

That being said, circumstances are beyond our control.

After confirming repeatedly that even if they were kicked once, they would not be charged a third toll, almost all the monsters chose to continue their journey.

after all……

Getting kicked won't cost you anything; at most, you'll just lose face.

When most people are going to get kicked, even saving face is no longer a big deal. Since they're going to get kicked anyway, some monsters, having nothing better to do, even started comparing whose landing posture was more elegant...

"Let's go up too."

Feng Xia smiled and grabbed Zhu You Niang's hand.

Just then, a small hand reached out and grabbed Feng Xia's collar from the other side.
