"hiss--"

After a hoarse snake-like howl, a monster fell from the sky and slammed heavily on the ground, stirring up dust.

This monster has a huge and strong body, and its skin is covered with hard scales. It is pitch black and as smooth as a layer of hard stone, which makes people shudder.

The demon snake's head was like a lion's, with sharp fangs and piercing, ferocious eyes. Its tail was like a giant whip, revealing an endlessly ferocious aura.

But this terrifying beast was now crawling on the ground, gasping for breath, with its tongue sticking out unwillingly.

If you look closely, you can see that the snake's body is covered with crisscrossing sword marks, the tightly arranged scales on its tail have been cut off, and even half of its fangs are broken in its mouth, which contains its tongue.

And at its seven-inch point, a transparent sword lay across it.

Lu Zhaozhao touched the ground with both feet and walked towards the snake demon step by step.

The snake seemed a little frightened and flapped its body wildly, trying to escape, but was nailed to the ground by Niye and could not move at all.

When Lu Zhaozhao stood in front of it, it opened its bloody mouth in a pretentious manner, hoping to scare away the person in front of it.

But this trick didn't work on Lu Zhaozhao, because the broken fang in its mouth was just cut off by her own hands.

She fought with the snake demon for five days. She defeated it in three days, and in the remaining two days, the snake demon used the terrain to escape and she chased it.

It's funny, she was just meditating in the cave, and this evil snake somehow accidentally broke in and bit everyone it saw, so she was forced to fight back.

Lu Zhaozhao looked at the demon snake on the ground. It had stopped struggling and stared at her viciously with its narrow eyes.

Lu Zhaozhao sneered, took out a dagger and ended its life.

Then he pulled out his dagger and scratched it.

If you count carefully, she stepped into the back mountain one year ago today. In the past year, she has gone from running for her life after provoking monsters to being able to seriously injure or even kill some monsters with lower abilities. The pain she has gone through is hard to describe in words.

The first demon beast she killed was a fox demon half a year ago.

The fox demon is good at bewitching people, and it weaves a dream.

In the dream, Lu Zhaozhao was wearing a red dress and gently placed her hand on the hand extended by the handsome man in front of her.

She was surrounded by the admiring gazes of the male cultivators and the envy and jealousy of the female cultivators.

Lu Zhaozhao didn’t know if this was an ordinary female cultivator’s dream, but she knew that this was not what she wanted.

So, she easily broke through this rough dream.

The fox demon has no fighting power, and its only weapon is dream weaving. The dreams woven according to the desires of different species have never been so easily broken before.

Before the fox demon could react, Niye arrived first.

The fox demon died, but Lu Zhaozhao obtained the fox demon pill with Wei Zhanjie's suggestion.

It was a small ball with a faint purple light, buried deep in the heart.

Lu Zhaozhao was deeply shocked when she did the dissection work for the first time. The broken body of the fox demon echoed in her mind day and night and could not dissipate for a long time.

It was not until half a month later when she challenged the tiger demon alone and pierced its heart with a sword that the shadow gradually dissipated.

Wei Zhanjie told her that this was the case for every cultivator who had just stepped out of the sect's protection. They found it difficult to accept the bloodiness of their own flesh at first, but as the blood on their hands grew and more and more corpses lay at their feet, they would get used to it.

Lu Zhaozhao bit her lower lip tightly, lowered her head and said nothing, just mechanically digging out the demon pill.

She sniffed and said sullenly, "Can such a hardened heart lead to the path of ruthlessness?"

Wei Zhanjie looked at her with some pity and said, "No."

Lu Zhaozhao suddenly looked up at him with red eyes.

"But the demon pill can help you practice faster." Wei Zhanjie continued, tapping his chin to signal her not to stop the movement of her hands.

Lu Zhaozhao nodded and continued with his previous actions, then asked: "Then what should I do?"

"You have to figure out your own path," Wei Zhanjie said.

"But what Emperor Huizong of the Qing Dynasty taught was the way of cultivation that cuts off all emotions and love." Lu Zhaozhao said as he took out the demon pill that he had dissected.

Whether it was the content of the book she read before traveling through the book or the knowledge she learned after traveling through the book, they all told her that the ruthless path is a path that cuts off all cause and effect, leaving no room for compromise and going all out, regardless of any consequences.

This is also why the relationship between Yun Xian and Nian Zhi is so bumpy.

The most taboo thing for those who practice Taoism wholeheartedly is being tempted. Once they fall into lust, at best it will be difficult to make progress, and at worst all their practice will be ruined.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhaozhao pursed his lips, thinking that even Yun Xian, a son of destiny, had his cultivation level backfired to the level of a spirit after he became convinced that he liked Nian Zhi. It can be seen that the ruthless way is just as its name suggests, and cannot be mixed with any emotion.

Lu Zhaozhao sighed and wiped the tiger demon's demon pill with his sleeve.

This one is obviously rounder and brighter than the fox demon's. It seems that the tiger demon is much stronger than the fox demon.

Wei Zhanjie looked at her like this, shook his head and said nothing more.

In the path of cultivation, what path to cultivate varies from person to person, and one can only figure it out by oneself. There is no point in him saying more.

Looking down, he saw Lu Zhaozhao carefully put the demon pill into the Qiankun bag, buried the tiger demon's body, and then muttered something in a low voice.

He moved closer and recognized that it was the mantra for rebirth.

A contemptuous smile escaped from his lips, and Wei Zhanjie said in a somewhat malicious tone: "You've already killed him, and now you're like this, don't you think it's pretentious?"

Lu Zhaozhao ignored him. After finishing her recitation, she dusted off her clothes and said softly, "I killed it because I had to do so in this situation. As for what happened next, it was just to seek peace of mind."

Wei Zhanjie didn't understand. His famous battle in his life was killing a demon dragon, and he killed countless people after that, but he never thought about seeking peace of mind.

But he didn't want to stop it, because there were people around him who did the same thing, and they also did it to seek peace of mind.

But that person's ending was not good.

Lu Zhaozhao stood up and looked into the distance, with a serious look on his face.

In the days that followed, her life was about finding monsters, fighting them, and then escaping or killing them.

This repeated process passed quickly over a year. When Lu Zhaozhao reached the great perfection of the Golden Core Stage with the help of the demon snake pill, he suddenly realized.

It seemed that there was no match for her in this outer jungle.

She looked into the depths of the dense forest, and Wei Zhanjie appeared beside her at some point.

He was very interested. "Let's go in and take a look!"

Lu Zhaozhao nodded, turned around and looked at the empty space behind her where all the people had scattered since she appeared, raised a smile, and strode deeper into the area.
