Fairy, help me cultivate.

Chen Yao sighed.

"what?"

The two women questioned each other at the same time.

Chen Yao quickly shut his mouth and stepped into the entrance of Fire Cloud Cave.

The purplish-red mountain walls, due to the high temperature, formed clumps of molten and dried dripping rocks that overlapped endlessly, looking quite disgusting.

It was completely silent here, not a single flying insect could be seen, and the further you went in, the hotter it became, making you feel uneasy.

Just as Chen Yao felt his very soul burning, and the winding road ahead seemed to have no end in sight, a bend appeared, and a large lake of purplish-red lava flowed before him.

The lake water was constantly bubbling up thick, fiery bubbles, resembling a shocking festering wound.

Aren't you hot?

Yunjiang asked curiously.

"Why isn't it hot?" Chen Yao asked.

"Then what are you standing there for? Hurry up and throw the fragment in so we can get out as soon as possible."

Jiu Luo also complained inside the gourd: "The grass in Yuan Hu Cave Heaven has scorched spots."

Chen Yao tossed the fragment of the Myriad Demon Heart-Binding Pearl into the lava: "That's it? It's that simple?"

"Fire Cloud Cave is a place in the Demon Realm where top-level magical artifacts and treasures are forged. How can you enter it casually? It's that simple. Just wait for forty-nine days! Come on, let me show you around our Demon Sect."

"What do you mean by 'our demonic sect'? I am a member of the righteous path!"

Chen Yao was naturally referring to Jiu Luo.

Jiu Luo was about to respond, but the gourd remained silent.

Yun Jiang ignored him and urged him to leave the Fire Cloud Cave.

Chen Yao was indeed burning up and quickly walked out.

As soon as he stepped out of the cave, he saw the shadow of the demonic peak in the far distance burst into a burst of light that shot into the sky.

It seems that the demonic sect has discovered the camp of the righteous path.

I don't know if it was thanks to the Left Assistant Minister.

Soon, the entire Demon Realm trembled. From this vantage point, five or six gray-black dragon-like dust clouds rose from the Demon Realm plains, and strange roars and howls echoed from all directions.

The six armies assembled and marched towards Demon Peak.

Chapter 185 The Demon God Who Reads the Analects

Taking advantage of the emptiness in the Demon Realm, Chen Yao led Yun Jiang towards the Demon Well.

That said, the Demon Well was the first famous landmark he saw after transmigrating to this world. Looking at the sea of ​​blood maple grass all around, he felt as if he had been transported to another world.

"You are not from the Demon Realm, so how did you get here in the first place?"

Yunjiang asked him.

Chen Yao couldn't think of a reason to evade the question, so he remained silent.

Yun Jiang was displeased and gave a cold snort, saying no more.

"There's probably only one way to enter the Demon Well. Even if the Demonic Sect were to launch a full-scale attack against the Righteous Path, wouldn't they leave guards to prevent a surprise attack from the Righteous Path?"

Chen Yao walked out of the Snow Maple Forest. In the distance, an arc-shaped city wall rose into the sky, and streams of hot blood sprayed straight into the clouds, dyeing a large part of the demon realm's sky blood red, exuding unparalleled ferocity.

The Demon Well is in sight.

"I'm just showing off my limited skills in front of an expert. I am the master here. Turn left, under the third tree with a hundred spans in girth."

Yun Jiang gave concise instructions.

Chen Yao did as instructed and indeed found a bloody hole under the big tree.

The hole was large enough for two people to enter side by side, and a blood-red aura emanated from it, making his body appear blood-red.

Chen Yao sensed the area briefly with his divine sense, then jumped down and descended several hundred feet on his sword before finally seeing the uneven, rough ground inside the Demon Well.

This place is like a crack in a magic well.

"This is the outermost layer of the Demon Well, it's not dangerous, so feel free to proceed!"

Yun Jiang said.

Chen Yao looked around; the silence was unsettling.

Which floor should we go to?

Yun Jiang smiled and asked, "Which floor do you want to go to?"

"I don't want to go to any of those floors," Chen Yao answered truthfully.

Yun Jiang snorted: "Coward."

"I wonder who among us is hiding in the ring, too afraid to come out."

Yun Jiang couldn't find a way to refute: "We'll go to the very center of the first level of the Demon Well, where there's a blank stele. As long as you take me there and retrieve a piece of the stele, we'll have completed our mission."

"A stone tablet?"

"The last piece of the puzzle of my physical body."

Chen Yao suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Yun Jiang also fell silent.

The end of the crevice was blocked by the towering figure of a demon god; to go out would inevitably alert him.

The demon god, with bull horns, horse hooves, a dog's face, and a bear's body, was half-leaning and half-squatting, panting heavily and muttering a few words from time to time.

The magic well was extremely quiet, except for the occasional sound of slowly turning pages, making a "whoosh" sound.

Chen Yao opened his eyes, thinking of a way to sneak away.

"Food and sex are the greatest desires of humankind..."

"I examine myself three times a day..."

"If you want to establish yourself, you must also help others to establish themselves..."

The demon god read a book, swaying his head, his deep voice filling the entire crack, making Chen Yao's head buzz.

What stunned Chen Yao even more was the cheap copy of the Analects held between the demon god's enormous fingers, and the dirty satchel leaning against its huge hoof.

Those were things he brought with him when he traveled through time.

"These words are profound and mysterious, unlike ordinary language. But I've been looking at them for years, and I still can't understand them."

The demon god breathed a sigh of relief.

"The following explanation is really perfunctory; you absolutely shouldn't think that way..."

Its rugged appearance contrasts sharply with its pensive demeanor.

Is there any way to solve it?

Chen Yao asked Yun Jiang.

This guy is very strong, and his nose is quite powerful. If all else fails, we'll have to leave the Demon Well first and then think of another way.

Yun Jiang answered in this way.

it is good!

Without a second thought, Chen Yao turned around and went back the way he came.

you!

Before Yun Jiang could say anything, a gust of wind suddenly rushed behind them, and the hot air currents stirred up the pebbles on the ground, causing them to tumble wildly.

"Who goes there!"

A streak of dark light swept past Chen Yao's head and plunged deep into the ground, as thick as a traditional Chinese ornamental column.

It was a long iron pestle.

Chen Yao's heart sank, and he turned around.

The demon stared with its dark, dog-like eyes, carefully stuffing the booklet into its chest, and breathing heavily, clearly ready to fight to the death.

"Tell me, what does it mean that a gentleman is not a vessel?"

Chen Yao's sudden question startled Yun Jiang and Jiu Luo, who had no idea what he was doing.

The demon god was also taken aback, then frowned and asked, "How did you know...?"

"The meaning of 'a gentleman is not a vessel' is that a gentleman disdains using weapons in a fight!"

Chen Yao's eyes darted around.

The demon god laughed heartily, gesturing wildly: "Didn't I throw away my weapon? This book mentions 'gentleman' several times, and he seems quite powerful. What is a gentleman?"

"The gentleman is like justice, the villain is like profit."

"What do you mean? I've seen this sentence at least eight hundred times." The demon stared with his beady eyes.

"When gentlemen fight, they uphold righteousness. They don't act like petty people who only care about their own interests."

"Oh..." The demon god seemed to be thinking, took out a booklet, turned to that page, and began to take notes.

"..."

"..."

Jiu Luo and Yun Jiang were speechless, both feeling that the righteous path's decision to attack the Demon Realm now might be the right one...

"Then, by reviewing what one has learned and gaining new insights, one can become a teacher?"

"What I'm saying is that you need to move around frequently, so that even when fighting the same person, you can gain new insights each time and be able to use one person as a whole."

"A gentleman who lacks gravity will not command respect."

"It means that a gentleman must act decisively when he takes action, otherwise he cannot establish authority."

"The commander of an army can be captured, but the will of a common man cannot be taken away."
