Chapter 164 - Forgotten Items

In the Eastern Wastelands, the anti-demon operation was in full swing.

The various sects and the powers of the secular dynasties that had been watching from the sidelines also joined in the extermination of the remnants of the demon race.

What was strange was that after the demon race had lost a portion of their troops, they actually mysteriously disappeared.

In the following period of time, no matter how many people searched for them, other than a few lower-level demonic creatures who had been hiding and could not retreat in time, the once arrogant demon army had actually disappeared without a trace.

This had aroused the suspicion of many cultivators.

The demon army had left just like that?

It was obvious that things were not that simple. They had been scheming against the Eastern continent for a long time and would not give up easily, but whether they could actually leave the Eastern Continent or not was a mystery.

On the other side.

After dealing with the demon king who had suddenly appeared in Green Mountain City, Su Xing and the others set off on their journey to get rid of the rest of the demons and defend their way.

But it was obvious that their next journey was destined to be fruitless.

Su Xing had planned to travel north along the Great Feng territory, flying at least to the Red Cliff for a thousand miles. After exterminating the demons along the way, he would turn to other places for battle.

But after flying for two days, he came to a stop gloomily.

Where was the demon army that he had been promised? He had been travelling for hundreds of miles, but there wasn’t even a shadow of a demon.

He saw many displaced mortals instead.

Su Xing and the others followed a group of refugees and came to a village that was still relatively intact.

These refugees had their homes burned down by the demon race, so they had no choice but to embark on the road of wandering. Some of them were even unable to escape the pursuit of the demon race, and they were kidnapped by the demon race not long after they left.

Hearing their recount, Su Yan’er and Shen Yaoling’s faces turned gloomy.

“What the demon race has done is truly heartbreaking and insane. If I were to encounter it, she would definitely let them taste death.” As she spoke, Shen Yaoling clenched her fists and waved them in the air a few times, displaying a fierce expression.

The refugees passing by were instantly confused by her actions.

A few kind-hearted women came forward to dissuade her. “Young lady, we appreciate that you have such a heart, but the demons are all demons who can fly in the sky and escape the earth. It’s better for you not to waste your lives.”

“That’s right! It’s the greatest fortune is to be alive these days!”

“Sigh! Our villagers were all captured by those beasts of the demon race, leaving us powerless women. What should we do in the future?”

Hearing this, Su Xing and the others felt a trace of compassion.

The world was not benevolent and treated people like dogs. The cultivators were high and mighty, but only these mortals suffered undeserved disasters.

The common people of the world had suffered for a long time!

But this was the law of this world. The strong preyed on the weak, and natural selection prevailed.

In such a world, the weak would be beaten mercilessly.

Only by constantly becoming stronger could one day be able to control one’s own fate, but before that, one could only become a duckweed at the mercy of the wind and rain.

A mysterious aura appeared in Su Xing’s mind, and his originally calm state of mind suddenly rippled.

The things around him quietly moved away from him. In the next moment, he looked around and seemed to be on the surface of a calm lake in the depths of the lake. He walked aimlessly on the surface of the water, and his body slowly sank into the lake. However, he did not seem to notice it, and continued to walk forward with his head lowered.

The lake water spread to his chest, abruptly waking him up.

Just as he recovered his senses and was about to leave the lake, he suddenly realized that he had returned to reality.

Su Yan’er and Shen Yaoling were staring at him curiously, as if they had discovered something strange.

“Junior Sisters, what’s wrong?”

Su Yan’er was also a little puzzled. She shook her head and said, “Senior brother just entered a strange state. We don’t know what exactly happened.”

Shen Yaoling, who was worried by the side, also nodded. Clearly, Su Xing’s performance just now made her a little worried.

When she saw Su Xing wake up, a smile appeared on her face again.

At this moment, a familiar notification sound rang in Su Xing’s mind again.

“Beep, beep!”

“Host has sensed the path of mortals. Congratulations, host, for obtaining a strand of Great Dao Sensing.”

Did he just enter the path of mortals?!

Su Xing opened the system and checked it suspiciously. Surprisingly, there was an additional attribute in the system.

“[ System: Check in to System 2.0 every day ]

[ Host: Su Xing ]

[ Strength: early stage of the Human Immortal Realm (15%)]

[ affiliation: Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect, Sunset Peak ]

Primary Roulette chance 0 times, Intermediate Roulette chance 1 time.

Note: Great Dao can improve the comprehension of cultivators when they cultivate. Each of the 3,000 Great Dao has different comprehension methods. Mastering a complete Great Dao is the key to becoming an emperor.”

After the system’s explanation, Su Xing finally understood what the so-called Great Dao was.

However, there was still a long way to go before he reached the emperor-level. It was not the time for him to think about this.

After checking for a while, just as he was about to exit the system, a golden item in his backpack caught his attention.

It was the Heavenly Desolate Body, one of the ten great Heavenly Desolate Bodies in the world!

Looking at the Heavenly Desolate Body that was buried in the corner, Su Xing secretly laughed and cursed.

After Li Yiyi became his disciple, the heavenly physique ability was automatically distributed to his backpack, but after a series of events, he had forgotten about it.

If not for this inexplicable realization, he would not have thought of this.

Guilty, guilty, guilty!

Su Xing immediately pressed the use button on the system.

Suddenly, a cool feeling spread all over his body. Su Xing could not help but look at the clothes on his body. When he saw that everything was intact, he was relieved.

At this time, the sky was already dark.

The three of them found a simple residence in the village and planned to rest here for the night.

As soon as they entered the house, Su Xing walked into his room and sat cross-legged on the ground to feel the changes in his body.

Perhaps it was because of his mortal-returning ability, other than feeling that his body had become more muscular and his outline more distinct, he did not seem to notice anything special.

Just as Su Xing was admiring his figure, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open.

“Junior sister, why are you here?”

Su Xing subconsciously turned around and saw Su Yan’er and Shen Yaoling pacing back and forth at the door, as if hesitating whether to enter.

Just as he was feeling a little puzzled by the strange expressions of the two girls, Shen Yaoling stretched out her hand and pointed at his abdomen.

Woah!

“Wow! Senior Brother Su Xing, you actually have eight-pack abs…”

Su Xing: “…”

Whoosh!

Su Xing hurriedly put on his long robe at lightning speed, and his face suddenly became a little stiff.

“Senior Brother, are you okay? Ling’er will help you with whatever!” Shen Yaoling walked forward, pulled on Su Xing’s sleeve, and asked with concern.

“No, it’s fine…”

They were all on the same side. If she saw his great physique, she would not be at a disadvantage!

Su Xing hinted to himself.

Su Yan’er, who was at the side, blushed slightly. She stole a glance at Su Xing’s abdomen, then quickly turned her head.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a little envious of Junior Sister Shen Yaoling.

She could rush forward and pull on Su Xing’s sleeve without any scruples, while she could only pretend to be nonchalant as she watched from the side.

No! What are you thinking? That’s your Senior Brother.

Su Yan ‘er habitually looked at the sky, and her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up.
