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

"Huh? It's you, kid? What a coincidence!" The man exclaimed as soon as Fan Tong turned around.

"Who are you? Do you know me?" Although the two men sounded somewhat ill-intentioned, they still asked the questions normally.

"Hmph! We are true disciples of the Yunxia Sect! We saw it all clearly from below the day you beat up Yun Zhongyan!"

"Senior Brother Zhang, why waste words with him? He dares to bully our Yunxia Sect, let's just cripple him while we're at it!"

"Junior Brother Zhao is right! With his Spirit Realm cultivation, crippling him would be a piece of cake!"

Senior Brother Zhang laughed heartily, and before Fan Tong could speak, the two of them attacked him directly.

"That damned Yunxia Sect, all they do is bully others by relying on their master's power!" Fan Tong cursed angrily, quickly retreating to avoid the two's sneak attack.

"What? You actually broke through to the Yellow Spirit Realm? But don't be so presumptuous, let me show you the power of the third level of the Yellow Spirit Realm!"

After finishing his sentence, Senior Brother Zhang launched another attack, brandishing a long sword that shimmered with light, its sword energy like a rainbow, directly stabbing towards Fan Tong.

Fan Tong reacted quickly, his figure slightly shifting to avoid the fatal blow. He then unleashed the Elephant Trunk Cloud Strike, taking the opportunity to counterattack Senior Brother Zhang.

At the same time, Junior Brother Zhao formed hand seals and unleashed a secret technique of the Yunxia Sect, conjuring up illusory sword shadows that swept towards Fan Tong from all sides.

Helpless, Fan Tong had no choice but to give up his counterattack. He took a deep breath and used the Elephant Step Charge, instantly increasing his speed to dodge the barrage of attacks.

"Now you know how powerful our Cloud Mist Sect is, right? Watch how I kill you in a moment to wash away your insults!"

Senior Brother Zhang laughed heartily, and while speaking, he attacked Fan Tong.

Faced with the combined attacks of the two, Fan Tong could only use the "Dragon Elephant Skill" to dodge the attacks as much as possible while looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

"No! It seems unlikely that we can defeat them without paying a price! Let's see who's more ruthless!"

Fan Tong gritted his teeth and activated the Dragon Elephant Technique to enhance his strength. He had previously found it difficult to attempt the fifth level, but now he had no choice but to take a gamble!

Dragon Elephant Technique, Level 5 Achieved! Combat power increased tenfold!

"Ah!" Fan Tong roared, his already swift steps increasing to an even higher level, and in the blink of an eye he arrived in front of Senior Brother Zhang!

Elephant Step Charge! He used his arms to mimic the tusks of an elephant, forcefully striking at Senior Brother Zhang, who had exposed an opening due to the excessive force of his move.

Seeing this, Senior Brother Zhang had no time to think and could only slash his sword at Fan Tong's shoulder!

With a move called "Elephant Back Against a Mountain," Fan Tong chose to withstand the blow head-on, using a small force to overcome a large one, directly causing Zhang's sternum to crack loudly.

Immediately, Senior Brother Zhang spat out a mouthful of blood, flew backward, and lay on the ground, unable to move.

It's a long story, but actually very short. In the blink of an eye, Fan Tong's shoulder was injured, and Senior Brother Zhang was lying on the ground.

Before Junior Brother Zhao could make a move, Fan Tong charged forward again, his eyes bloodshot!

"No! Don't come any closer!" Junior Brother Zhao seemed frightened by Fan Tong's blood-red appearance, and actually showed a timid expression!

When people experience fear, they often react in two ways. The first is to become more fearless, unleashing a fighting force far exceeding their usual level. The second is to become hesitant and restrained, unable to unleash even half of their full fighting potential.

Clearly, Junior Brother Zhao belonged to the latter category. He lacked the willpower to match his cultivation level. After exchanging a few blows with Fan Tong, he was knocked to the ground and rendered powerless to resist!

"Phew! That was close! If this piece of trash had held on any longer, my body wouldn't have been able to withstand the surge in combat power!"

Seeing Junior Brother Zhao lying on the ground, being scolded by Senior Brother Zhang, Fan Tong secretly felt fortunate.

"Next time, I must bring the Taiyi Ancient Sword with me, so I won't be in such a passive position!"

After briefly recovering from the effects of forcibly using the fifth level of the "Dragon Elephant Skill," Fan Tong walked over to the two unfortunate brothers lying on the ground.

"Alright! Stop cursing him! Tell me, what tricks is your Cloud Mist Sect up to this time?"

Fan Tong was puzzled. The Yunxia Sect's style didn't seem like that of a sect with such a grand vision!

"Don't be so smug! I advise you to release us. Don't think that just because your Mengyao broke through to the Profound Spirit Realm, she's invincible here. Our Yunxia Sect's core disciples are no less capable than her!"

Senior Brother Zhang cursed Junior Brother Zhao a few more times, spat at Fan Tong, and said in a very tough tone.

"And you? Don't you have anything to say? If not, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you!" Fan Tong walked up to Junior Brother Zhao, stepped on his arm, and asked in an icy tone.

"Don't kill me! I'll talk! I'll talk! But I don't know much. My master told me that this secret realm was given to us by the Burning Flame Sect, apparently to attract young people from the Northern Region..."

With a soft thud, Senior Brother Zhang, using all his strength, thrust his sword into Junior Brother Zhao's Niwan Palace, interrupting Junior Brother Zhao's narration.

"Bastard! Aren't you afraid of death?!" Fan Tong was also startled by Senior Brother Zhang's ruthlessness, never expecting him to kill his junior brother.

"A coward like this isn't a true hero of the Cloud Mist Sect! If this good-for-nothing weren't an elder's illegitimate son, he would have died long ago! Don't worry, you'll all come to join me, hahaha..."

Senior Brother Zhang let out a maniacal laugh, then his face froze and he stopped breathing.

"What's going on?" Fan Tong pried open Senior Brother Zhang's mouth, then looked at Junior Brother Zhao's, and finally saw the clue.

"The Cloud Mist Sect is ruthless! Even their true disciples left behind poison. Could it be that every disciple has some? What a terrifying sect!"

After a moment of reflection, he began to loot the two's belongings, treating them as spoils of war!

The disciples of Yunxia Sect were quite wealthy; in addition to a few spiritual herbs, they also received more than a thousand low-grade spirit stones.

It's important to know that spirit stones are the hard currency in the cultivation world. They are divided into three grades: upper, middle, and lower, and can be used to assist in cultivation or to purchase spiritual herbs and medicines.

Among all the gains, the most important one was finding a map of the hidden realm!

"It seems the Cloud Mist Sect and the Burning Flame Sect are indeed up to no good. They have the map but haven't released it; they must be planning something with it!"

Fan Tong put the other materials into his Qiankun Ring and began to carefully examine the map.

"Looks like my luck really isn't that good!" Fan Tong couldn't help but laugh at himself after looking at the map.

It turns out that the place he entered earlier was a forbidden area, belonging to the Demon Mist Zone, while there were some safe places elsewhere, where there should be other gains.

As for the highest point of the secret realm, it was the towering mountain peak he had seen earlier!

"What's the meaning of this location? Why is it marked with a special marker? Judging from the direction these two people are heading, it seems they're heading straight here! Is there something fishy going on?"

"Since there's nothing wrong with the general direction, why not go there and take a look, see what kind of conspiracy those bastards from the Cloud Mist Sect are plotting! We can also see if we can find any rare and precious treasures along the way."

Fan Tong recalled Zhang Shixiong's maniacal laughter before his death, and a bad feeling crept into his heart. He then got up and walked forward!
