Devouring demons, I attain immortality.

On the post road, a caravan was moving slowly forward.

The sun was high in the sky, and its scorching rays shone on the earth, raising clouds of dust.

The caravan members, some on horseback and others driving wagons laden with goods, chatted and laughed among themselves.

The young coachman patted the cargo box beside him, his face beaming, and said, "This batch of materials and spirit crystals we're transporting this time are all top-quality! I've heard that those high-ranking officials and nobles love this kind of stuff. We're sure to get a hefty bonus for this trip!"

"You little rascal, all you ever think about is money. But then again, if this mission goes smoothly, I'll be able to save enough money for my son to go to school, and he'll be able to learn a few words so he won't end up like his father, spending his whole life toiling on this post road."

The guard next to him spit out a laugh.

Another team member, wiping the sweat from his brow, joked, "Old Chen, your son is quite clever; he's bound to amount to something! When I go back this time, I'll have to bring some trinkets for my mischievous daughter; she loves those sparkly little ornaments..."

The goods they were transporting were piled up like mountains.

These are all extremely valuable resources.

If the goods can be successfully delivered to their destination, they will bring the caravan substantial profits.

This will also greatly improve the lives of each of them.

The caravan leader, Li Ming, was a burly, middle-aged man with a resolute gaze.

He rode a tall, magnificent horse, occasionally turning back to check on the formation.

My heart is filled with anticipation for this mission.

At this moment, he raised his voice and shouted to his team, "Everyone, give it your all! Stay focused and don't slack off! These goods are priceless; they're related to our livelihoods. We must deliver them safely!"

Upon hearing this, the team members immediately responded.

Then, everyone focused their attention and stopped joking.

After all, for them, what's in the car is everything.

If anything goes wrong.

Even if we sold them, we still couldn't afford to lose them!

However, at that moment...

When everyone cheered up.

The next second, an unusual aura quietly permeated the air.

Suddenly, everyone felt a strong sense of danger rushing towards them like a tidal wave.

The team members, who had been chatting and laughing, suddenly changed their expressions. They immediately became alert, hurriedly picked up their weapons, and stood ready to fight.

In an instant, the entire venue fell silent.

"What's going on? Why do I feel like there's danger...?"

"I think so too. Could it be that demons have attacked our group?"

The crowd began to whisper among themselves.

But the more serious the situation, the more solemn the atmosphere became.

This made everyone even more nervous.

boom!

But at that moment, a heavy thud sounded from not far away.

It immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone looked over at once.

Instantly, he gasped.

Suddenly, several demons sprang out from the dense forest.

Meanwhile, many demons appeared in the sky.

At this moment, they were in mid-air.

A golden-winged eagle circled in mid-air, its sharp cry piercing the sky.

Its outstretched wings are over ten feet long, shimmering with golden light in the sunlight, like a dark cloud that could press down at any moment.

On the ground, two blood-eyed demonic tigers stood guard, watching them intently.

Their eyes, like burning blood spheres, gleamed with a bloodthirsty light, and their sharp claws dug marks into the ground.

In addition, there are many powerful demons of various shapes and sizes, such as the steel-clawed wolf covered with sharp spikes and the huge rock demon bear.

Their appearance instantly enveloped the entire post road in an atmosphere of terror.

At this very moment, this large group of demons...

It formed a semi-circle, trapping everyone inside and preventing them from escaping.

The caravan members became even more nervous upon seeing these demons appear.

I never expected to encounter so many demons here.

"What do we do now...?"

"What else can we do? Fight these guys to the death, of course!"

"Yes, let's fight these demons! We can't let them destroy our goods, can we?"

……

The murmurs of the crowd rose softly.

They quickly reached a consensus.

No matter what, you must not give the things here to the demon in front of you.

After all, the goods they carried carried all their hopes.

It is the result of their hard work, and even more so, their hope for the future.

We'd rather lose our heads than let our blood flow, but we absolutely cannot lose our goods!

Therefore, the caravan members gripped their weapons tightly, ready to fight these demons to the death.

But everyone knew the truth.

The demons on the other side were clearly more numerous and stronger.

These demons have all survived countless battles in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, and each of them possesses terrifying strength.

If the two sides really start fighting, no one knows how long they can hold out.

At this moment when life and death were uncertain, everyone was filled with anxiety.

Sweat poured down their foreheads, but their steps did not falter in the slightest.

"Aww!"

One of the steel-claw wolves let out a deafening roar.

Immediately afterwards, the demons charged towards the caravan like a surging tide.

They were incredibly fast, and in an instant they closed the distance to the caravan.

The caravan members roared in response, defiantly meeting the demons' attack, and a battle was about to erupt between the two sides!

Leading the charge was Captain Li Ming.

He brandished his long sword, his eyes revealing fearless courage.

"cut!"

He let out a roar.

A powerful blade of light shot out, piercing straight through the air.

Li Ming's cultivation level is also quite remarkable.

He has a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation level, which makes him a minor expert.

But unfortunately.

Even someone like him couldn't gain the slightest advantage when facing this large group of demons.

Because the demons here are clearly much stronger.

Most of them were at the peak of the Enlightenment Realm.

Apart from that, the others are weaker, and are also at the mid-to-late stage of the Enlightenment Realm.

Their chances of winning against such a group of demons are certainly slim.

But team captain Li Ming showed no intention of admitting defeat.

After that one slash, even more blades of light followed, creating even more devastating attacks.

Puff puff!

This series of attacks continued unabated.

However, faced with such a terrifying enemy, he quickly realized that the gap in strength between himself and these demons was enormous.

Li Ming's attacks at most defeated some of the weaker demons.

However, those extremely powerful demons were completely helpless against them.

Just then, the golden-winged eagle swooped down, its sharp claws reaching for him.

He quickly dodged to the side, but his arm was still scratched by the claws.

Instantly, blood stained his sleeves.
