Chapter 471 Forged Body

The second floor of the Demon Suppressing Tower.

Xu Han stood in the mist, and beneath him were nearly ten thousand dark Illusory Demons.

Xu Han closed his eyes as if an old monk was meditating. His clothes fluttered, and the hair on his forehead was automatically raised high. Purple rays of light lingered around his strong right arm, flowing back and forth.

A few breaths later, the purple light suddenly flashed and all of it poured into his right arm.

Bang!

Bang!

A series of seemingly indistinct sounds echoed throughout the world, accompanied by strange rhythms that surged out like waves.

Suddenly, the youth's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened. The strange rhythm immediately dissipated, and the gray world once again returned to calm.

Xu Han stretched out his right hand and placed it in front of his eyes. He carefully examined the right arm.

A hint of joy appeared on his face.

Success!

The fourth Demon Cave was finally broken by him after he had killed nearly 5,000 Second Illusory Demons.

The Illusory Demon on the second floor was roughly at the Fourth Realm and at the early Nether Opening Realm. The amount of demonic energy contained in its body was about four to five times that of the Illusory Demon on on the first floor.

The difficulty of killing had also increased exponentially, The five thousand Illusory Demons had consumed two hours of Xu Han's life. Including the two hours he had spent here, Xu Han had already stayed for three hours for the second time. If he wanted to clean up the remaining ten thousand Illusory Demons, he would have to spend another four hours. If this continued, most of the cultivators would have already reached the fourth or even fifth floor by the time he finished taking care of these things.

Xu Han had Xu Han's plan, so he couldn't afford to waste too much time. Moreover, after the fourth Demon Cave rushed out, the demon energy required for the fifth Demon Cave was even more enormous to the point that it was almost an astronomical number.

He made a slight calculation. With the demonic power of the second level of the Illusory Demon as the unit of calculation, The amount of demonic power required to break through the fifth Demon Cave was over 200,000, However, these Illusory Demons in front of him were only more than 10,000. Although the higher they went up, the more demonic power the Illusory Demons possessed, but their numbers were also decreasing. If this was calculated, they would probably only be able to slaughter all the Illusory Demons in the Demon Suppressing Tower after rushing through the fifth Demon Cave.

Obviously, Xu Han did not have the time or energy to do so.

However, he was still a little unwilling to give up the treasure vault in front of him just like that.

Thinking of this, Xu Han frowned.

He was wondering if there was any way to quickly kill these Illusory Demons, or…

Suddenly, the youth's eyes lit up. It was as if he had thought of something. He held his hand in the air and a golden sword image appeared behind him. Under his command, it whistled towards the group of Illusory Devils.

With a howl, the golden sword silhouette cleanly removed the head of an Illusory Demon.

After a few breaths, the Illusory Demon's body dissipated, and purple demonic energy immediately surged into Xu Han's hands.

Xu Han clenched his large hand and closed his eyes to concentrate. His right arm and the Asura Art circulated at the same time, along with the starlight left behind by the watcher in his body.

Xu Han's thoughts were very simple.

The Asura Art was originally a method that relied on absorbing demonic energy to temper the body, but the human body and demonic energy were not compatible. Therefore, such a method usually required cultivators to cooperate with the fists and feet on the flesh to absorb demonic energy. However, even so, the harvest would be even weaker in the later stages. That was why so many Asuras were stopped at the fourth realm of the Physical Body Realm, where Xu Han was currently at the Violet Firmament Realm, and were not allowed to enter an inch.

However, the current situation was slightly different. The demonic power in these illusionary demons was different from ordinary demonic power. It came from the demon lord's demonic power. It was easier to absorb. This was also the reason why human cultivators had to compete for the demonic power. Of course, what they absorbed was only the Laws of Heaven and Earth, and what Xu Han needed was the demonic power itself.

Secondly, Xu Han had another Demon Lord's demon arm. He could convert this demon energy into his own things through the demon arm, and then use the starlight left behind by the surveillance to forcefully absorb this demon energy into his body.

This thought was only Xu Han's deduction, and he wasn't fully confident that he could accomplish this.

Therefore, just in case, he had only absorbed the demonic power of an Illusory Demon for his experiment.

After a hundred breaths of time, when his eyes opened, a wisp of dense joy instantly appeared between his eyebrows.

He succeeded.

Although it took a lot of time, it was only because he had never done such a thing before. Some details needed to be changed to adapt. This success meant that the tens of thousands of Illusory Demons in front of him were enough to nourish Xu Han's physical body.

Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated. Three more sword shadows surged out, heading towards the heads of the Illusory Demons.

This time, he still took a hundred breaths of time to absorb all three strands of demonic energy. Although time didn't seem to have changed, the amount of demonic energy he absorbed had tripled. As he continued to absorb it, the amount of demonic energy he absorbed would increase. Whether it was the amount of time he consumed or the amount of demonic energy he absorbed each time, he was very certain of this.

Therefore, when he attacked again, the number of sword shadows that surged out was raised to ten.

…

The fifth floor of the Demon Suppressing Tower.

"What should we do?" Fang Ziyu, who was hiding behind a huge boulder, turned his head to look at Yan Zhan, who was beside him, and asked with a frown.

The two of them had already met on the second floor. Although every floor of the tower seemed to have been tampered with, There were a large number of Illusory Demons gathered at the entrance, but their cultivation levels were extremely high. Especially Fang Ziyu's Heavenly Art of Devouring Demons, which was cultivated by Fang Ziyu, was like the natural enemies of these Illusory Demons formed from demonic power. With their tacit cooperation, the two of them could be considered as one of the first few cultivators to reach the fifth floor.

However, this situation had changed at this moment.

The cultivation of the Illusory Demon on the fifth floor had already reached the late Heavenly Hunt Realm, At this moment, there were nearly a thousand Illusory Demons entrenched at the entrance, Moreover, these magical creatures were not restricted by the restriction of being unable to fly at the entrance, It was piled up in the surroundings of the halo. If they wanted to rely on the previous self-diversion to find another opportunity to enter, there would be many risks. Moreover, the consumption and even injuries caused by forceful entry could leave hidden dangers in the future battles. Therefore, neither of them was willing to make such a move unless they had to do so as a last resort.

Facing Fang Ziyu's question, Yan Zhan also frowned.

These Illusory Demons were too powerful, The number was also extremely shocking, If the two of them were to lead everyone behind them, they would have to keep up with four to five hundred Illusory Demons, It was very troublesome to escape. If there were two more people, it would be much simpler. However, there was no one else around. Moreover, this trip to the Demon Suppressing Tower was originally a matter of contention. Ordinary people would naturally not be willing to cooperate with them if they had the means to escape. However, if they waited, those high-grade Illusory Demons would inevitably be defeated first.

Just as the two of them were hesitating, two figures suddenly landed behind them.

The two of them were shocked. They hurriedly turned around and looked vigilantly at the person who suddenly arrived. However, they discovered that the two of them were the Nangong Jing siblings who were swordsmen.

After experiencing the competition between swordsmen, Fang Ziyu had no good impression of the two of them, especially Nangong Jing.

She frowned and asked warily, "What are you doing?"

Nangong Jing, however, intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the group of Illusory Demons not far away and said, "It seems that you two are in trouble."

"Didn't you guys also have one?" Yan Zhan's mind was full of vigor, and he quickly reacted as he said in a deep voice.

"Since we're both in trouble, why don't we help each other?" Nangong Jing narrowed his eyes.

This was naturally a very tempting suggestion. After all, according to Fang Ziyu and Yan Zhan's calculations, if one or two more people could split the chase of these Illusory Demons, the chances of breaking through to the fifth floor would be much higher. However, Fang Ziyu did not appreciate it. He coldly snorted and said, "Humph! Why should we believe you?"

It wasn't that Young Miss Fang wasn't unreasonable, but her temperament was always like this, clearly distinguishing between love and hatred. Moreover, if the Nangong Jing siblings truly harbored malicious intentions, then they would only need to step into the halo first, and the Illusory Demons chasing them would be able to turn their horses around to kill Fang Ziyu and Fang Ziyu, causing the two of them to fall into a dilemma. Therefore, her worries were not without reason.

Nangong Jing did not get angry when he was questioned by Miss Fang in an unfriendly tone. Instead, he tilted his head and thought about it with extreme seriousness.

After a while, she suddenly smiled and said, "Think of it as repaying Young Master Xu for his generosity."

"What?" Hearing this, Fang Ziyu's expression changed and his tone increased.

Yan Zhan's temper was calm, but he couldn't help but frown. He looked at the smiling Nangong Jing and asked in a deep voice, "What does Lord Nangong mean?"

"Don't listen to my sister's nonsense." However, Nangong Zhuo, who was behind Nangong Jing, couldn't bear to watch any longer. He hurriedly took a step forward and explained to the two people with anxious expressions, "I met my elder sister on the first floor with my brother. Fortunately, he helped me reach the next floor. Brother Xu's abilities weren't that bad, but…"

At this point, Nangong Zhuo hesitated, and his expression became rather strange.

"Just what?" Fang Ziyu couldn't stand the way he spoke, so he hurriedly asked.

However, Brother Xu didn't seem to understand the rules of the Demon Suppressing Tower. He didn't even let go of the Illusory Demon Force on the first floor … Nangong Zhuo said guiltily. After all, Xu Han was grateful to them, but they didn't tell him about it because of all the prejudices they had previously. Thinking about this, Nangong Zhuo felt even more ashamed.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Fang Ziyu and the other two heaved a sigh of relief, as if they didn't care about Xu Han's "hunger without choice of food" at all.

Naturally, Nangong Zhuo was puzzled, but he didn't know that before Nangong Jing read out those rules, Xu Han had already told Fang Ziyu and Fang Ziyu everything. With their understanding of Xu Han, they naturally knew that there was a reason for him to do so. As long as they heard that he didn't have anything else to do, their worries would naturally be relieved.

Seeing that Nangong Zhuo was still entangled with Fang Ziyu, Nangong Jing became impatient. She hurriedly pulled her younger brother to look at Fang Ziyu provocatively and asked, "Do you dare? If you guys still want to wait here, we siblings won't accompany you anymore!"

Knowing that Xu Han was unharmed, Fang Ziyu heaved a sigh of relief. Naturally, it was impossible for her to lower her head in front of Nangong Jing. Thus, she patted her chest and said, "See who doesn't dare! When the time comes, don't blame me for not saving you!"

The two women seemed to have lost their temper as they leapt forward, ignoring Nangong Zhuo and Yan Zhan, and rushed straight towards the place where the Illusory Demons were gathered.

Seeing this, Yan Zhan smiled bitterly and exchanged glances with Nangong Zhuo. Both of them could see the same helplessness in each other's eyes. However, this was clearly not the time to delve deeper into this matter, so they hurriedly followed the two of them and chased after them.
