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

Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of victory, the sky suddenly darkened, and a strong white light suddenly appeared, like a giant eye looking down on them.

The light gradually spread, enveloping everyone's figures.

The warm light, however, revealed an unspeakable eeriness.

The crowd stopped laughing.

"What is that?" the girl in white murmured to herself, her tone filled with doubt and unease.

She looked at Fan Tong, hoping he could give an explanation, but Fan Tong's face was also filled with shock.

The light grew stronger and stronger. Fan Tong subconsciously reached out, trying to grab something, but found that his hand could only touch nothingness.

He tried to struggle, but found that his body was tightly bound by an invisible force and he could not move.

The same was true for the others. The red-haired boy's initial excitement was quickly replaced by panic. He struggled, but could only feel an even heavier sense of oppression.

"Everyone, calm down!" the purple-haired youth shouted, trying to calm everyone down.

However, his voice sounded insignificant amidst the overwhelming light, as if swallowed up by some force.

The old man in black robes frowned. He chanted a spell softly, trying to use his knowledge to break the mysterious power. However, the light did not weaken at all; instead, it became even more dazzling.

At this moment, a voice emanated from the light, cold and majestic: "You have violated the rules of heaven and earth and must undergo a test." The voice seemed to come from the highest heavens, carrying an unquestionable majesty.

The expressions on everyone's faces froze instantly, and for a moment, the entire space seemed to be frozen by this oppressive force.

The fairy in green slowly emerged from the light, her eyes cold as ice, sending chills down one's spine.

She coldly surveyed the crowd, lingering particularly on Fan Tong for a moment.

"What are the rules of heaven and earth?" Fan Tong asked loudly, suppressing his fear.

Although he was bound, his fighting spirit did not dissipate, and he was determined to find out the ins and outs of everything.

The fairy in green raised an eyebrow slightly and replied calmly, "Rules are order. If you break the rules, you will pay the price." Her voice was firm and unwavering, as if any rebuttal would be futile.

"We did not intend to break the rules!" the purple-haired youth retorted unwillingly, his voice echoing in the light, yet sounding powerless.

"Heaven and earth have their own laws, and your actions have violated taboos," the old man in black robes said in a deep voice, a hint of worry in his eyes.

Everyone expressed their dissatisfaction, and the atmosphere quickly became tense.

The green-clad fairy's gaze swept over everyone, a hint of coldness flashing across her lips.

She slowly raised her hand, and everyone felt a powerful force completely enveloping them, as if they were about to be transported to an unknown world.

"The test is about to begin." The green-clad fairy's voice, like a faint echo, abruptly stopped.

With a flick of her sleeve, the fairy in green caused everyone to feel dizzy and disoriented. When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a gloomy and terrifying forest.

A thick fog blanketed the sky, obscuring the sun, and the air reeked of rotting earth, making one want to vomit.

The towering ancient trees stretched towards the sky like ghostly claws, their withered branches and fallen leaves rustling eerily.

"Where is this place?" The girl in white gripped Fan Tong's sleeve tightly, her voice trembling.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a shrill howl shattered the silence, and a monster resembling a giant wolf, covered in sharp spikes, leaped out of the thick fog and pounced straight at the purple-haired youth.

The young man couldn't dodge in time and was slashed on the thigh by the monster's claws, his robes instantly stained with blood.

He collapsed to the ground in agony, clutching his wound, his face pale.

"Ah!" the girl in white cried out, tears streaming down her face. "Save him, Fan Tong!"

Fan Tong was extremely anxious. The spirit pearl in his hand emitted a dazzling light, forming a protective barrier behind the girl.

"Protect yourself!" he growled as he faced the monster.

The light from the spirit orb transformed into sharp blades, colliding fiercely with the monster's sharp claws, producing a piercing metallic clang.

Seeing this, the red-haired youth also drew his scimitar and joined the battle.

He was agile, like a nimble cheetah, circling around the monster, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

The two worked together seamlessly, and for a time they were evenly matched with the monster.

However, the monsters seemed endless, constantly emerging from the thick fog, emitting terrifying roars.

The group stood back to back, forming a defensive circle to withstand the monster's attacks.

The elder in gray directed everyone to look after each other, and the tense atmosphere was like a taut bowstring, ready to snap at any moment.

"Watch out!" the gray-robed elder shouted, and a huge spider dangled from the tree, its sharp webs aimed straight at the green-robed pharmacist.

The pharmacist panicked and was nearly entangled in the spider silk, but fortunately the gray-robed elder intervened in time to save him.

The battle grew increasingly fierce, and everyone was exhausted and covered in wounds.

A sense of despair spread through everyone's hearts, as if they were in a bottomless abyss.

Just as everyone was fighting fiercely, the old man in black robes suddenly stopped resisting and closed his eyes...

Just as everyone was fighting hard, the old man in black robes suddenly stopped resisting and slowly closed his eyes.

A foul wind carrying the stench of decaying earth swept over us, sharp roars made our eardrums ring, and the shrieking of claws tearing through the air was terrifying.

However, the old man remained detached, his face calm, his brow furrowed, as if he were silently communicating with some unseen force.

Everyone was surprised by his actions, thinking that he had given up resisting, and their faces were full of astonishment and confusion.

The red-haired boy brandished his scimitar and shouted anxiously, "Grandpa! What are you doing!" The monsters seized the opportunity to intensify their attacks, their claws tearing through the air and rushing towards them with a chilling aura.

However, just when everyone was about to despair, the old man in black robes suddenly opened his eyes.

His once cloudy eyes now shone with a chilling light, as if he had grasped some kind of secret.

An invisible pressure emanated from him, and in an instant, the surrounding monsters were frozen in place as if under a spell. Their menacing postures were frozen in mid-air, appearing both bizarre and comical.

This sudden change left everyone dumbfounded, even the monsters were at a loss.

Only heavy breathing and the lingering stench of blood remained in the air; everything was still, like an oil painting.

"Found it!" the old man said in a low voice, which was not loud but exploded in everyone's ears like thunder.

He suddenly raised his arm, and an invisible force instantly shattered the surrounding space.

Like shattering glass, with a crisp "crack," the eerie forest vanished instantly, replaced by a clear lake. Sunlight shimmered on the surface, surrounded by lush greenery, filled with the sounds of birdsong and the fragrance of flowers.

The group was freed from danger, their hearts filled with the joy of surviving a disaster, and cheers resounded all around, echoing through the sky.

The girl in white, her eyes slightly red, wept with joy. She ran quickly to Fan Tong's side, nestled tightly against him, and felt the warmth of his embrace.

However, just as everyone relaxed their guard, a cold voice rang out again.

The fairy in green appeared out of thin air before everyone. Her face was as cold as frost, and her beautiful eyes were filled with rage, as if she wanted to devour everything.

"You dare to escape!" she roared, and with a wave of her jade hand, dark clouds filled the sky, thunder rumbled, and countless bolts of lightning tore through the sky, striking down on the crowd like a torrential rain.

Everyone looked up in astonishment to see blinding lightning, carrying devastating power, intertwining into a massive electric grid.

People fled in all directions to escape the impending catastrophe.
