Recruit demons to become heroes, hunt demons to become gods

Chapter 40: Killing the Demon Cultivator Group
"Stop it, save the merit."

After he finished speaking to the Infinite Merit Pearl, he said to Su Muwan and the other two girls:
"I'm on a mission, let's go find the demon cultivator."

Then he called Lei Yun to come and take him on his journey.

Lei Yun had previously relied on his speed advantage to remain unscathed even when being besieged.

Seven demon cultivators died, and the mounts that had signed ordinary contracts fled.

Only one of them signed a master-servant contract. When its master died, the mount was also implicated and killed by the Fire Luan.

The three of them hurried on their way, and Dou Eqing met Kong Shangke at the corner of the passage.

Kong Shangke seemed to be guilty of a crime, and hurriedly took out several magic weapons similar to the Demon-Slaying Thunder Pearl and gave them to Dou Eqing.

Kong Shangke saw the demon cultivators besieging Dou Eqing in the dark, but did not come out to rescue them.

"There are only three Blood Evil Thunder Beads. Brother Dou, please use them sparingly. We are out of Saltpeter Thunder Stone."

Kong Shangke took out the Blood Evil Thunder Pearl and successfully diverted Dou Eqing's attention.

Dou Eqing was anxious to kill the demon, so he took the Blood Thunder Pearl and continued on his way.

"Why don't you follow? It'll be safer with the three of us."

he said as he walked.

Kong Shangke was only in the initial stage of foundation building, and Dou Eqing did not take his fighting ability seriously.

However, he forgot about the blood flag in Kong Shangke's hand, otherwise he would not have thought so.

The blood banner has been refined to the third-level mid-grade, which means that the blood skeleton has the combat power of the third-level mid-grade.

In addition, the magic wolf given by Dou Eqing was also a third-level combat force.

Therefore, Kong Shang can unleash the combat power of two third-level warriors by knocking down one person.

On the way, Shen Yirong asked who Kong Shangke was.

"Fairy Shen, let me introduce myself. My name is Kong Shangke, and I have always been a fellow disciple with Senior Brother Dou and Fairy Su.

I know how to refine weapons, so feel free to ask me if you need me."

So, Shen Yirong asked Kong Shangke about Dou Eqing's past in Huanxiumen.

Now she knew what Dou Eqing meant by the 'three-handed Dou Eqing'.

The more I learn, the more interested I become in Dou Eqing.

When Kong Shangke was about to talk about helping Dou Eqing remove his third hand, the four of them met another team.

Dou Eqing was about to take action, but found that the other party was from the righteous path. Killing them would not gain any merit and would only waste his time.

Moreover, the other party is an acquaintance.

They were the five Sword Demon Sect monks led by Guo Youcai.

"Friend Guo, we have some friendship. Let's say goodbye now to avoid a life-and-death fight."

Dou Eqing wanted to get rid of the other party as soon as possible, but Guo Youcai seemed to have met his savior.

“In this maze, the life-saving teleportation talisman is ineffective.

Several of my fellow disciples have been killed by the evil cultivators.

We have a history of cooperation, so I think we should go together."

However, Guo Youcai wanted to follow Dou Eqing and others.

Whether it was Dou Eqing's reputation or the strength shown by Su Muwan later, Guo Youcai regarded them as strong reinforcements.

"Then let's go together."

Dou Eqing didn't want to waste time arguing with the other party. Ten minutes had passed and he still hadn't seen any trace of the demon cultivator.

Especially the infinite merit beads in my mind, which popped up ten minutes later to remind me:

"There are still twenty minutes until the mission ends."

This gave Dou a sense of urgency.

Another five minutes passed, and the monks they met were still from the righteous path.

Dou Eqing did not intend to take action, and since there were cultivators from the Daomo Sect present, and Dou Eqing's team had the advantage in strength, they did not fight.

There were only five minutes left in the time limit for the mission issued by the Infinite Merit Pearl, and Dou Eqing still hadn't encountered the demon cultivator, which made his anxiety show on his face.

"Brother Dou, I see you look very serious. What's going on?"

Guo Youcai approached Dou Eqing and the two started chatting.

Dou Eqing was furious and was about to yell at him to stop disturbing him, but then he suddenly thought, considering he was a righteous cultivator, that Guo Youcai might know where the demonic cultivators were. "I'm so eager to destroy the demons right now, I'm itching to get my hands dirty. I wonder if Senior Brother Guo has any leads on the demonic cultivators?"

He slowed down the thunderclouds' advance, as if Guo Youcai really had news about the demon cultivator.

"Although it's a bit difficult for us to fight against that group of demon cultivators with our current strength, we can still avenge my fellow apprentices and kill a few of them before leaving."

Guo Youcai was thinking this in his mind.

So, he took Dou Eqing to the place where the evil cultivators were staying.

Under Dou Eqing's urging, the group quickly found the demon cultivator that Guo Youcai mentioned.

This is the connecting point of all the passages in the maze and also the center of the maze. It is very spacious, with an area of ​​two basketball courts.

This group of demonic cultivators were lying in wait here, ready to kill any cultivators that came out of the passage.

Now, Dou Eqing doesn't have much time left for the mission.

If it was as clean and efficient as the way we killed those seven demon cultivators before, we could kill several of them in a few minutes.

If the mission fails, only three merit points will be deducted.

Dou Eqing only needs to kill three demon cultivators of the same level within these few minutes.

However, the demon cultivators in front of Dou Eqing were not just three, but one hundred and thirty.

It seemed like Guo Youcai had dug a trap for him.

However, Dou Eqing no longer cared about so much and rushed towards the demon cultivator with a knife to kill him.

Not only him, Guo Youcai also raised his knife and killed the demon cultivator at the first moment.

This group of demon cultivators never imagined that someone with only nine of them would dare to attack them.

Those demon cultivators who were not facing the attack actually stood there motionless and watched the battle seriously.

Dou Eqing raised his sword and slashed, and the first demon cultivator in the late stage of foundation building was killed instantly.

He kicked the nearest demon cultivator nearby, and when the man dodged, the long sword cut off his neck.

The demon cultivator didn't know how he died.

"One more to go."

Dou Eqing calculated in his mind and glanced around. The knife followed his gaze and came towards the opponent, but stopped at the opponent's face.

This person is Luo Qian, whom Luo Chuyan had mentioned to him, and the son of Luo Chuyan's cousin.

Luo Qian must not be killed, as killing him will cause endless trouble.

But it was this hesitation that allowed the demon cultivators to react.

"Dou Lao Mo, this is not good, let's attack together. If we fight alone, ordinary people are no match for Dou Lao Mo."

The demon cultivators recognized Dou Eqing and attacked him with their weapons.

Dou Eqing's reputation as Dou Lao Mo is becoming more and more famous.

A light bulb suddenly lit up in his head, and he immediately made a decision. He rushed to Guo Youcheng and worked together to quickly kill another demon cultivator.

Finally, the three demon cultivators were killed before the deadline of the mission.

However, the mission was completed, but the nine people were surrounded by more than a hundred demon cultivators.

Shen Yirong complained in her heart about Dou Eqing's recklessness, but Dou Eqing did not take the demon cultivators surrounding him seriously.

He felt relieved, but at the same time, he became more murderous.

One of the demon cultivators was talking to the others while pointing at Dou Eqing.

This made Dou Eqing feel unhappy.

He immediately brandished his long sword, using a move called "Rainbow Piercing the Sun", and the long sword and martial arts skills hit the opponent's eyebrows directly.

Many attacks from the demon cultivators hit his long sword.

However, the demon cultivator's head was still not saved.

This move was like rushing into the enemy camp and taking the enemy general's head, which made Dou Eqing feel very proud.

So he rushed forward with his bare hands, trying to take back the long sword.

The demon cultivators were all in awe of his indomitable spirit.

They all dispersed from the vicinity of the long sword, as if they were afraid of him.

In fact, they followed the advice of the demon cultivator who had just died and had other plans.
