That fifth-tier old demon was not only terrifying in combat, but also cunning and shrewd, whose scheming was no less than that of the most astute sage in the world.

It lies hidden in the deep lake, like an eternal shadow beneath the blue waves, silently awaiting every challenger who dares to step into its territory.

Whenever a master arrives, intending to besiege this overlord of the lake, it burrows deep into the abyss at the bottom of the lake like a cunning rabbit with three burrows. That is its kingdom, a sanctuary that is difficult for outside forces to reach.

If any arrogant and powerful human dares to attempt to dive into the thousand-foot-deep lake and challenge it...

You will find that in this confined and stressful environment, even the most powerful martial artist will have their strength greatly reduced.

If one is not careful, one may fall into the trap carefully set by this old demon, and eventually exhaust one's life, becoming another wronged soul in its hands.

If any other martial artist inadvertently approaches the lakeside, this old demon will instantly transform into a vengeful ghost on the lake's surface, bursting forth with lightning speed and dragging its prey into its underwater world with irresistible force.

There, every drop of water is like its eyes and ears, every ripple is a net it has laid out, leaving no place to hide, only to desperately await the end of its fate.

Thus, this lake demon, with its extraordinary strength and cunning wisdom, wove an invisible net in this world, plunging all those who dared to covet its territory into endless fear and despair.

At this moment, Mu Tongyan was also somewhat worried.

Upon seeing this, Ye Chu smiled gently and confidently, as if he could dispel all the gloom around him.

"As long as we act cautiously and do not easily venture into that mysterious lake, we will be safe."

After saying this, he had already quietly sketched out a blueprint for action in his mind, precisely defining the boundaries of his activities to ensure that every step he took was on the edge of safety and that he did not cross the line.

This spatial rift is like a silent brewer; year after year, if it is not sealed in time, it will give birth to countless monsters, some cunning, some fierce, gradually gathering into a force not to be underestimated.

As time went by, when this force expanded to its limit, one terrifying beast tide after another arrived as scheduled.

It relentlessly attacks the surrounding peaceful cities, bringing unprecedented threats and challenges to the human world.

For this reason, this place has long been a forbidden zone, heavily sealed off to prevent the spread of unpredictable disasters.

They safeguard peace and tranquility in the human world.

Compared to the surging tide of beasts, the internal situation of the demon race was even more horrifying.

That is their cruel devouring of each other, as if sacrificing the lives of billions of demons to give birth to a terrifying high-level demon beast.

In this world shrouded in demonic energy, sixth-order demon kings stand proudly above all others, while seventh-order demon lords are even more imposing, not to mention those demonic beasts with unique bloodlines.

Their existence represents the pinnacle of the demon race, having suppressed humanity for decades and directly reduced the population by a full 60%.

This phenomenon is known to the world as "demon devouring".

Whenever the demonic attack descends, human warriors are on high alert, quickly entering the highest level of vigilance.

They no longer fought alone, but united as one, inviting powerful figures from all sides to form an alliance, vowing to nip this evil force in the bud.

In the world of demons, the law of the strong being respected is played out to the fullest extent.

Being weak not only means losing dignity, but also potentially becoming food for other demons.

This is a war without gunfire, a battle between survival and death that unfolds every moment.

This situation is both a test of the wisdom and courage of human warriors and a silent indictment of the cruel laws within the demon race.

On this continent, where demonic energy and blood energy intertwine, every life struggles desperately for survival.

The "Demon Devouring" scene is undoubtedly the most brutal.

Therefore, the great demons beneath the lake rarely make a move, and if it's for the sake of satisfying their appetites, they generally won't bother with ordinary human martial artists.

Ye Chu's goal was to hunt down as many third-tier demonic beasts as possible, absorbing their crystal cores to increase his strength.

Immediately, Ye Chu gracefully used the Cloud Circling Step, his figure seemingly floating in the air, leisurely traversing the sky, resolutely heading towards the depths of the secret realm.

Along the way, he skillfully used his internal energy to condense divine eyes.

This extraordinary skill of transforming vapor into form allowed his spiritual perception to spread like a tide, meticulously exploring every inch of the surrounding space.

The spiritual energy permeating the air seemed to resonate with him, gently responding to Ye Chu's presence.

This harmonious dance between man and nature demonstrates his exquisite control over the subtle forces of heaven and earth.

This is precisely the terrifying aspect of Ye Chu's ability to control enemies with his qi and perceive all things.

No matter where he is, his vision and hearing are activated without any blind spots, just like a god.

It captures all the sounds and movements around it, transforming them into clear and detailed images in its mind, as if it possesses a pair of God's eyes that overlook all things.

For Ye Chu, playing on home turf is an incredibly effective strategy, no matter where he is.

After walking about several thousand steps, the outline of a demonic beast suddenly appeared in Ye Chu's mind.

"That's a fourth-tier venomous bone snake."

He moved with lightness and silence, leaping onto a towering ancient tree. His eyelids slowly closed, and a vertical pupil between his brows appeared and disappeared, shimmering with a deep light.

At this moment, in the far distance, a serpent demon is stepping into the threshold of the fourth rank. It abandons its mortal body and reveals its ghastly white skeletal form.

Compared to ordinary snake demons, this venomous bone snake is far more terrifying and extremely dangerous.

A purple aura swirled around its bones, a sign of extreme poison that inspired fear.

As it was advancing to the fourth rank, it urgently needed food to solidify its foundation.

As expected, not long after, the venomous snake demon swiftly arrived and captured a third-tier demon beast, then began its devouring feast.

With a chilling cracking sound, the struggling monster was instantly reduced to a bloody mess, leaving only a pile of scattered bones as a testament to the battle of strength.

Ye Chu silently approached the edge of this cruel scene, his gaze fixed on the venomous bone snake.

This snake has a long body, reaching tens of meters in length. Its head alone is as large as a millstone, making it exceptionally terrifying.

Within its eye sockets, which were not covered by flesh and blood, a strange red light flickered deep within its pupils, as if it could perceive the life and death of all living beings in the world.

The bone snake was covered in purplish-red bones, with four or five vein-like patterns wrapped around them. These patterns glowed eerily in the night, adding to its ancient and terrifying aura. It looked more like a giant python that had traveled from ancient times, ferocious and majestic, inspiring awe.

Ye Chu narrowed his eyes, clearly ready to make his move.
