In the war between humans and demons, it's not unreasonable for me to absorb demonic energy, is

Everyone was shocked. At that moment, only the demon's ferocious laughter continued to echo in the secret realm, carrying an ominous aftertaste that lingered for a long time.

What the crowd didn't see was the smug look on Fan Tong's lips beneath his seemingly terrified scream.

Upon entering the demon's belly, Fan Tong calmly opened his eyes, looking at the dense demonic energy around him, a look of excitement on his face.

"The Yama Ancient Sword, it's time for a hearty meal!"

Inside Fan Tong's dantian space, the Yama Ancient Sword trembled excitedly!

Without hesitation, he manipulated the ancient sword and began to devour the abundant demonic energy within the demon spirit.

The demonic energy churned within the demon spirit's body like a raging torrent, before transforming into dazzling golden spiritual power that surged into Fan Tong's body.

"Such powerful strength!" Fan Tong felt the surge of spiritual energy within his body and immediately realized that his judgment was correct!

Just then, the demon spirit, who was fighting against many cultivators, seemed to sense something was wrong with the demonic energy within its body and began to tremble uneasily.

Fear flickered in its eyes, and a low growl echoed in the air, as if resisting Fan Tong's power.

The surrounding cultivators sensed that this powerful evil force was beginning to waver, and thought that the demon spirit was about to unleash some powerful attack.

"Quickly, retreat!" Gongsun Yan shouted, his face showing unease.

Everyone knew they couldn't let their guard down now, so they quickly retreated, looking in horror at the increasingly violent demon spirit before them.

In that instant, the demon spirit let out a piercing roar, which shook the entire Starry Sky Secret Realm.

The demon's roar echoed like thunder across the Starry Sky Secret Realm. This roar was like a wave that shook the heavens and the earth, causing all the cultivators who were attacking it to retreat instantly.

Then, something truly jaw-dropping happened!

Suddenly, the demon twisted its body, carrying an unsettling, heavy aura, and flew swiftly into the depths of the secret realm.

"What's going on? Why did they suddenly run away?"

"Could they have been seriously injured by us? Should we go after them?"

"I understand now, the demon spirit may have been captivated by my unparalleled beauty!"

"Ugh! I think it's because you're so ugly that I can't stand it anymore!"

……

Upon seeing the demon spirit flee, the surrounding sect disciples immediately began to stir and discuss among themselves!

"Gongsun Yan, you deserve to die! You actually plotted to harm Fan Tong!"

Han Xinru glanced at the demon spirit in despair, then turned around and looked at Gongsun Yan with hatred in her eyes.

"Tch! That rogue cultivator's been putting on quite a show, hasn't he? Why don't you make him show himself? If he does, I'll eat shit!"

Gongsun Yan looked completely indifferent, showing no concern whatsoever for Fan Tong's life or death!

"Hmph! Gongsun Yan, you better pray that Fan Tong is alright, otherwise I'll get my revenge on you sooner or later!"

After Han Xinru finished speaking, she ignored Gongsun Yan, whose eyes were filled with coldness, and chased after the direction in which the demon spirit had left.

At this moment, Fan Tong was naturally unaware of the argument. Although he sensed that the demon spirit was present, he had no time to consider anything else, as his mind was focused on refining the golden spiritual power within his body.

Within his body, golden light flowed incessantly, and he could feel that power constantly growing stronger, continuously improving his cultivation level.

The demon spirit cried out pitifully as it ran forward, seemingly trying to reach the depths of the Starry Realm to escape the omnipresent devouring power.

However, just as they stepped into the nearby forest, the demon spirit suddenly let out a mournful cry, and its originally dense body instantly collapsed. In the towering black mist, Fan Tong's figure gradually appeared.

He stood unharmed amidst the black mist, his body radiating golden spiritual energy. His aura was like a calm lake after a storm, unfathomable and awe-inspiring!

"Is this the second level of the Earth Spirit Realm?" Fan Tong murmured, the words he was about to say remaining unfinished.

An indescribable excitement surged within him, but he forced himself to suppress that joy, slowly closed his eyes, and carefully felt the changes within his body.

The golden elixir in his dantian was like a rising sun, dazzling and eye-catching, and it suddenly grew to a diameter of one hundred meters, seemingly showing him some kind of enormous power and potential.

"Ah! Fan Tong!" Han Xinru's excited shout came from not far away, carrying a hint of urgency and unease, interrupting Fan Tong's thoughts.

Fan Tong opened her eyes and saw her friend's anxious face. Her heart softened slightly. "Don't worry, I'm fine."

"You just now... I thought you were going to be swallowed by the demon spirit!" Han Xinru's voice was still trembling, and there was a trace of fear in her eyes. She was obviously still shaken by what had just happened.

"I don't know why the demon vomited me up. Maybe it thought I was a bit smelly because I hadn't bathed for many days!" Fan Tong pretended to be relaxed and tried to comfort her.

"Alright, don't worry! Let's keep going, lest they steal all the good stuff!"

Seeing that Han Xinru's mood had improved, Fan Tong immediately changed the subject and headed deeper into the Starry Sky Secret Realm.

Deep within the Starry Realm, the light grew increasingly dim, and strange energy fluctuations permeated the air.

Fan Tong and Han Xinru walked side by side, the only sound in the quiet surroundings being their soft footsteps.

Suddenly, a scorching heat rushed towards us, as if the air itself was on fire.

Han Xinru exclaimed in surprise and instinctively grabbed Fan Tong's sleeve.

The space ahead distorted, and a gigantic fire beast slowly appeared.

It resembled a giant bear, its entire body covered in burning red flames, making the surrounding air scorching hot.

Fan Tong took a deep breath, and the Taiyi Ancient Sword in his hand emitted a crisp sword sound. Without hesitation, he charged towards the Flame Beast.

The Taiyi Ancient Sword unleashed a sharp sword aura, striking directly at the head of the Flame Beast.

However, the Flame Beast merely let out a deafening roar, easily dodging Fan Tong's attack. Its massive claws, wreathed in scorching flames, slammed down towards Fan Tong.

Fan Tong immediately dodged to the side, and the Taiyi Ancient Sword in his hand shone brightly. Star power flowed on the blade, as if it contained the mysteries of the universe.

He unleashed the "Taiyi Star Sword," a sword technique that combines offense and defense with unpredictable moves, which he learned from the "Taiyi Sword Technique."

The sword flashed, like a meteor streaking across the night sky, carrying a sharp sword aura, and slashed fiercely at the fire beast.

With a loud "clang!", sparks flew everywhere.

The Fiery Beast let out a painful roar, its massive body swaying slightly.

Fan Tong was overjoyed. It seemed that the Taiyi Star Sword was indeed effective!

He seized the opportunity and launched another fierce attack with his sword, unleashing a torrential downpour of sword energy that enveloped the fire beast...

"Again!" Fan Tong roared, his sword flashing even brighter.

Sword light flashed like bolts of lightning, crisscrossing and weaving as Fan Tong's figure darted and weaved around the Flame Beast.

He stopped his relentless attacks and began to observe the Flame Beast's attack patterns.

Each dodge and each block gave him a deeper understanding of the Flame Beast's attack rhythm.

"Although its attacks are fierce, there are slight pauses between its moves, and before each attack, its right forepaw is slightly raised!" Fan Tong thought to himself.

"Now!" he shouted in his heart, seizing the brief opening after the Flame Beast's attack, raising the Taiyi Ancient Sword high in his hand, and frantically channeling all his spiritual power into the sword.

"The Heavy Sword of Heaven and Earth!"

A dazzling sword light, like lightning piercing the sky, struck the fire beast's chest with overwhelming force.

The Flame Beast let out a shrill scream, its massive body trembled violently, and then it crashed to the ground, turning into specks of starlight and disappearing from the spot.

A fiery red spirit stone, radiating a warm glow, lay there all alone.

Fan Tong slowly walked to the spirit stone, reached out and picked it up. Feeling the warmth of the fire-attribute spirit stone in his hand, he couldn't help but wonder to himself.

"What on earth is this?"
