The demon guards didn't stay for long. The leader used demonic energy to condense the demon puppet back into a giant form, and then led everyone to patrol the nearby area.

The previous demon bird was in the late Jindan stage, and the giant’s strength became the same as its own.

Now that the giant has been replaced by a demon guard in the early Nascent Soul stage, his strength has also changed.

After Yan Zhiqiao discovered this, he left Jiang Ciyuan and straightened his back.

If the demon controlling the giant was replaced by a demon in the God Transformation Stage, or even a demon at a higher level, wouldn't that mean there would be an extra tough opponent out of nowhere?

Yan Zhiqiao frowned slightly, not knowing whether he could control it with his magic power.

If not, destroy it as soon as possible.

After the demon guards left, Yan Zhiqiao and Jiang Ciyuan returned to Gu Qingyan and the others.

The six people sat cross-legged on the ground. Feng Liyu, who understood the situation, spoke first in a low voice.

"Those magic puppets look useless, but in fact their strength changes with the controller. We may have to destroy them first."

His idea was exactly the same as Yan Zhiqiao's.

Yan Zhiqiao heard this and spoke softly.

"Let me try first and see if I can control it with my demonic power."

When this was said, no one objected.

However, the magic puppet has gone on patrol with the magic guards, so we have to put it aside for the time being.

The most urgent task is to explore the magic spring.

Although the level of the demon guards is not high, for the sake of caution, Yan Zhiqiao is still in the lead.

The six people quickly crossed the open space and saw another dense forest not far away.

Unlike before, the forest was no longer pitch black, but instead was lit with a dim yellow light.

Yan Zhiqiao and the five of them sneaked in carefully. As soon as they hid in a bush, they felt the demonic energy in their bodies, which was originally just slightly stirring, suddenly began to become wild and agitated.

The demonic energy was turbulent, and the demonic power that wanted to suppress the demonic energy also surged.

A dull pain suddenly came over him, and Yan Zhiqiao lost his balance and fell to his knees, holding his chest.

"Little junior sister!"

The five people who followed were startled.

Yan Linghuan hurried to support Yan Zhiqiao, but saw a trace of bright red slowly flowing from the corner of her mouth.

There was no external force that hurt Yan Zhiqiao, so it could only be the demonic power in her body.

Yan Linghuan's pupils suddenly shrank, and she quickly grabbed Yan Zhiqiao's slender wrist, her white fingertips falling on her pulse.

Fortunately, Yan Zhiqiao only suffered from unstable internal breathing and was not seriously injured.

Yan Linghuan quickly took out a top-grade Huiyuan Pill and stuffed it into her mouth.

Yan Zhiqiao quickly meditated and adjusted his breathing, while the four senior brothers looked around vigilantly to avoid any demons suddenly appearing.

After a while, the dull pain disappeared and Yan Zhiqiao slowly opened his eyes.

Yan Linghuan quickly asked with concern: "Junior sister, how do you feel?"

Yan Zhiqiao shook his head.

"never mind."

Everyone was relieved.

Including Feng Liyu, who was still wary of Yan Zhiqiao, subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

As the eldest senior brother, Gu Qingyan was ashamed to have his junior sister protect them in return.

Seeing that she was injured at this moment, he felt that he could not trouble her anymore.

"Little Junior Sister, you should have a good rest. Leave the rest to us."

Yan Zhiqiao still remembered what they wanted to experience. The demon guards here were not very strong, and they were capable of dealing with them even if they were discovered, so he nodded.

Led by Gu Qingyan, the six people continued to walk into the forest.

The forest was not deep, and after a while they stopped again.

Not far away, a spring filled with demonic energy came into view.

A closer look revealed that the spring water was a thick black color, with steam rising continuously, and there were nearly twenty people in it.

There were men and women, all with their eyes closed, standing still like wooden figures.

Their faces exuded a strange dark aura, but there was no trace of pain in their expressions.

Xi Shili scanned their faces one by one, muttering in disbelief.

“These people are…”

Gu Qingyan's tone was solemn.

"He is a cultivator who has taken the Blood Attracting Pill."

Seeing them in such a situation, he felt no sympathy at all.

Now all this is the result of their own actions.

But I didn’t feel very happy.

Because the ones who control all this are the demons, and those women who lost their lives can never be reborn.

Xi Shili has always had a clear distinction between love and hate, and he hates this group of people very much.

But thinking about what Yan Zhiqiao once said, that the Bone Demon Tribe might use them to make pills, he could only suppress his emotions and look at Yan Linghuan.

"Second Senior Sister, can they still be saved like this?"

Yan Linghuan shook her head uncertainly: "I have to go check first."

Just as she finished speaking, she was pulled by Yan Zhiqiao.

"Hush, the demon guards are coming."

Yan Zhiqiao extended his index finger to his soft lips, signaling them to be quiet.

Everyone immediately became alert and split into two groups to hide in the nearby bushes.

After a few seconds, the previous team of magic guards and the giant magic puppets came from the front right.

They came to the spring and saw nothing unusual, so they walked around the magic spring and headed left.

In fact, one of the demon guards seemed a little impatient and couldn't help complaining as he walked.

"Boss, why do you think the Lord has to be so vigilant? In the past few hundred years, except for the occasional demon that accidentally entered the Dead Moon Mountain, no one has discovered that we are hiding here."

The demon guard known as the boss obviously agreed with what he said, but he still suppressed his tone and reprimanded him.

"Shut up, we will do whatever the Lord tells us to do."

The demon guard closed his mouth reluctantly, and then heard the boss slow down his tone.

"Okay, I know everyone has been working hard recently, but these medicine men are the last batch. After soaking them overnight tomorrow, they can be sent to the Lord."

"After tomorrow night, I will invite everyone to go to Yanming City for some entertainment."

As soon as the words were spoken, cheers of joy rang out.

"Boss is wise!"

"Thank you, boss!"

The demon guards walked further and further away.

Gu Qingyan withdrew his cold gaze and looked at everyone and made arrangements.

"Huanhuan, I'll go with you to check, you guys wait here."

"it is good."

The two of them endured the discomfort brought by the demonic energy and came to the demonic spring.

Gu Qingyan leaned down and pulled up the arm of a man who was closer to him.

Yan Linghuan stretched out his hand to feel the patient's pulse, and after a moment, he let go with a serious expression.

After taking the pulses of three people in succession, the two returned to the bushes.

Feng Liyu asked, "Second Senior Sister, what's the situation?"

"After their bodies were soaked in the magic spring, their spiritual power and demonic energy were deeply integrated into their flesh and blood. Although they still have breath, their spiritual orifices have been corroded by the demonic energy and they can no longer survive."

If they don't want to be used by the Lord mentioned by the Demon Guards, they can only kill these people.

After hearing this, Xi Shili immediately summoned the Mo Ling Sword.

"I'm going to kill them."

But Feng Liyu stopped him: "No, we haven't found out the situation in Dead Moon Mountain yet. Killing them now will only alert the enemy."

Xi Shili curled his lips and reluctantly put the sword back.

Gu Qingyan stared at the people in the magic spring, and after a moment, he looked away.

"They have to soak in the magic spring for another night. Before that, we must first find a way to enter the Dead Moon Mountain."

"it is good."

Although it was late at night, the six people still had plenty of energy, so they returned the same way.
