Chapter 213
This treasure mountain had even more ores and crystals than imagined. For two consecutive days, they hadn't broken the barrier at the top of the mountain. As they went deeper into the mountain, the high-grade exotic beasts they encountered also began to increase.
Not long ago, even Fourth-Rank exotic beasts appeared.
The demon-barbarians also lost a lot of manpower because of this.
When they came, there were more than a hundred demon-barbarians in total, and now there were only seventy-odd left, a loss of nearly forty.
This was only after digging out half of the ores and crystals.
"It seems we have to wait two more days to eliminate the barrier." Song Ce smiled. This time he had obtained a lot of ores and crystals, so how could he not be happy?
Lv Fang was about to speak when he suddenly frowned, took out a sound-transmission talisman from the White-Feathered Eagle Demon's storage bag, and after checking the content inside, his face sank.
It turned out that the White-Feathered Eagle Demon leading this team of demons was just an advance force, and more elite demons were about to arrive.
Song Ce also received a sound-transmission talisman and complained in a low voice, "Why did they come so late? If they came later, I would have found the entrance to the Lower Upper Realm."
Half a day later.
A Fourth-Rank eagle demon, also with white wings, brought more than a hundred demons and came to Lv Fang's front in a dense crowd.
"Captain, what is the situation now?"
The eagle demon, which was a circle larger than the White-Feathered Eagle Demon, asked.
Lv Fang didn't know what the other party was called, but looking at its appearance, it should be a demon that had a certain relationship with the White-Feathered Eagle Demon. He organized his language and told everything about the situation of the treasure mountain in front of him.
"Is that so."
The Fourth-Rank eagle demon waved its hand and said, "You all go to the treasure mountain, go and see the barrier at the top of the mountain, and carefully observe the places where the ores and crystals are."
"Yes, Commander Pan." A Fourth-Rank wild boar spirit responded and led these hundred-plus demons toward the treasure mountain.
Lv Fang noticed that among these hundred-plus demons, most were Fifth-Rank demons, and a small part were Fourth-Rank demons, which should be a ratio of three to seven. This could already be considered a very strong combat force.
It seemed that the Demon race attached great importance to the Lower Upper Realm here.
"Why is there a human here?"
Pan looked at Song Ce as if he had just discovered him, his expression somewhat unkind.
Lv Fang said expressionlessly, "The commander on the barbarian side is a very cunning human..." Before he finished speaking.
Pan had already rushed toward Song Ce and punched him flying.
This wasn't over. Pan's figure turned into a white light, controlling Song Ce in mid-air and attacking continuously.
So strong!
Seeing this scene, Lv Fang's eyelids jumped violently. Although Song Ce was a Fifth-Rank, First-Stage, given his mystery, being able to be taught a lesson by Pan without the ability to fight back really surprised him a bit.
Just as he was thinking, Pan's figure suddenly appeared in front of Lv Fang. It mocked, "Nothing more than this. I thought that if the barbarians let a Fifth-Rank, First-Stage human be the commander, it would be an incredible guy."
As the words fell, Song Ce in mid-air smashed heavily onto the ground.
"I've learned my lesson."
Song Ce wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking coldly at the arrogant Pan.
Lv Fang chuckled, glanced at Song Ce, and deliberately stirred up trouble, "It seems you are quite unconvinced by Pan. Could it be that you want to take revenge in the future?"
"Useless thing." Pan snorted coldly and didn't look at Song Ce.
In the following time, Pan took over the command here. Whether it was the demons or the barbarians, naturally, all the ores and crystals obtained by all the demon-barbarians in the treasure mountain were collected into its pocket.
Due to the addition of many strong combat forces, the progress of digging the treasure mountain also became much faster.
After half a day, Lv Fang clearly felt that the aura here changed abruptly, and the poison gas mixed in the air also rose to a level, no longer in a state of no danger at all.
What's going on?
Why did it become like this?
Before Lv Fang could think too much, a few demons hurriedly crawled out of the cave dug in the treasure mountain, and a Fourth-Rank Pangolin Anteater king chased them out. With just one claw, a Fourth-Rank demon died.
However, that Pangolin Anteater was also killed on the spot by the combined attack of many Fourth-Rank demon-barbarians.
A magical thing happened. Whether it was the corpse of the Fourth-Rank demon or the Fourth-Rank Pangolin Anteater, head-sized ownerless luck floated out.
"How can there be ownerless luck?"
Song Ce exclaimed.
Pan frowned tightly, looked back at Lv Fang, and said, "Has this situation happened before? This is not the Lower Upper Realm. How can ownerless luck appear?"
Lv Fang was also stunned. He had witnessed many demon-barbarians die, and the White-Feathered Eagle Demon was killed by him. There was no such thing as ownerless luck before.
Thinking of this, he told the truth and concluded, "Perhaps it's because the aura here has changed?"
Pan pondered for a moment and said uncertainly, "That is to say, because of some unknown reason, this place has become the Lower Upper Realm?"
Lv Fang felt a chill in his heart and blurted out his conjecture, "Could it be related to the fact that we dug out a large amount of ores and crystals in the treasure mountain? So the aura here has changed."
"You mean this place was originally the Lower Upper Realm, and because of the ores and crystals of this treasure mountain, the original aura was sealed? We destroyed this kind of seal-like thing, so the real Lower Upper Realm also appeared."
Pan reacted immediately.
Lv Fang was shocked upon hearing this. He subconsciously looked at Song Ce, who was curling the corner of his mouth not far away. In an instant, he understood everything.
Whether it was Song Ce or the Demon Heart, they should have guessed this situation long ago.
Thinking of this, Lv Fang asked the Demon Heart in his heart: "You knew it before? Please don't lie to me. I don't really believe in being deceived."
After a long while, the Demon Heart explained: "I did guess this possibility before, but I wasn't very sure, so I didn't say it out, lest you think I'm unreliable."
"Actually, this is quite good. Don't you also want to find the entrance to the Lower Upper Realm? Now you can be considered to have achieved your wish."
"Relax, with your special transcendent power, you can perfectly disguise as a demon, and your status is not low. You don't need to worry about safety issues."
"You and I both know that this is an opportunity."
"The demon-barbarians attach so much importance to this Lower Upper Realm, there must be something tricky in it. At the critical moment, with my help, you can completely seize this fruit."
Lv Fang didn't respond. Maybe he was a bit uncertain before, just guessing, but now he understood that the Demon Heart had always tried its best to let him enter an unpredictable situation.
The purpose was to let him keep using its power.
In this way, he was also more certain that if he used the Demon Heart's power, it would definitely have some hidden danger for him.
Rumble!
The earth shook, and the treasure mountain in front of him collapsed with a bang. Countless gravel shot in all directions, and the demon-barbarians who couldn't escape from the treasure mountain were crushed under the mountain.
