A Guide to Surviving the Mysterious Dungeon and the Twelve Talismans

Yunfeng Village was a band of bandits who occupied the vicinity of Yunfeng City.

There are five leaders in total.

The weakest among them is Wang Tian, ​​the fifth leader, whose cultivation is at the peak of Bone Refinement.

The strongest is the leader, Ba Hu, who is at the peak of the third-tier Meridian Opening Realm.

It can be said to be the biggest threat to Yunfeng City.

They also learned about Li Wan'er's situation.

Ba Hu didn't know where he found out, but he knew that Li Wan'er had a special physique called the Yin Condensation Physique.

Ba Hu, on the other hand, possesses a fiery yang body, with a fierce and domineering aura.

However, due to the excessive yang energy in his body, he has been hesitant to break through to the fourth-order True Essence Realm.

They fear being burned to death by the qi and blood within their bodies.

If it happens to merge with the Yin-congealing body, it can merge with the Yang-fire body in a Yin-Yang harmony.

It can not only suppress the domineering yang energy in his body, but also help him break through to the fourth level of True Essence Realm.

Because Wang Tian wanted to claim the greatest credit, he didn't even send a message to Yunfeng Village, and directly led his trusted men to arrest people.

"Don't bother with these clowns. It's getting dark soon. Let's see what our mission is next," Zhou An said with a faint smile.

Soon, it was six o'clock in the evening.

The once bright sky suddenly darkened.

Even on the distant horizon, boundless darkness surged in like a tide, moving at an extreme speed.

By the time Zhou An came to his senses, the sky had completely darkened.

Immediately afterwards, the flame at the top of the watchtower began to emit a soft light.

Within a kilometer radius, everything was illuminated as if it were daytime.

The runes on the watchtower's body also began to glow.

I don't know if it's just my imagination, but Zhou Anjue's light seems brighter than it was last night.

A series of notification sounds rang in Zhou An's ears.

The notification sound finally disappeared after a long while.

Before Zhou An could finish processing what was happening, the watchtower began to shake violently.

"Buzz buzz buzz~~~!"

The next instant, a blinding light suddenly burst forth from the flame.

No, it should be called a beam of light.

The beam of light shot straight into the sky and disappeared into the darkness.

Chapter 114 The Shocking Defense Line

Just as Zhou An was feeling surprised, another beam of light suddenly appeared in the distant darkness.

Then came the third, the third, and the fifth beam of light.

Although these beams of light were extremely far away, they were remarkably clear in the pitch-black night sky.

These suddenly lit pillars of light, judging from their location, were precisely the watchtowers that Zhou An and his team had been repairing that day.

"There are four more watchtowers. Good heavens, has this triggered a chain reaction?" The malevolent entity looked into the distance in surprise.

“It seems like a good thing,” the benevolent entity murmured.

Zhou An didn't speak, he just stared into the distance.

In just over ten breaths, the five beams of light began to shine brightly in turn.

Finally, deep within the earth, clear array patterns emerged one after another.

In the blink of an eye, the array patterns connected all five watchtowers.

The moment the five watchtowers connected, the light of the five flames surged instantly.

The soft light quickly spread in all directions.

Under the pressure of the light, the endless darkness receded like a tide.

Some of the eerie creatures that hadn't had time to fade were directly exposed to the light of the fire.

A piercing scream rang out.

Numerous grotesque bodies began to be rapidly burned by the light, becoming damaged and decaying.

Some of the monsters are powerful enough to hold out for the time being.

They wanted to chase the darkness, but the darkness receded too quickly, and they were scorched to death by the light after only running a short distance.

In the blink of an eye, the light stopped spreading.

After some rough calculations, Zhou An discovered that the light emitted by the five watchtowers was actually connected.

The light completely blocked the path from the towering cliff to the south.

It completely blocked any chance that those monsters could try to infiltrate.

It has spread more than 100 miles beyond the border.

At this point, Zhou An found out.

These five towers were undoubtedly a formidable defensive line against the darkness at the time.

However, as time went by, the fire's energy diminished, and the runes became damaged.

Finally, for some reason, all four watchtowers were destroyed.

Only the watchtower where Zhou An was located remained, but the energy from the fire would only last for a few days.

If Zhou An hadn't possessed the Horse Talisman, lighting up these watchtowers would have been incredibly difficult.

"This is shocking. It seems the power of this world is not weak either." The benevolent being was filled with shock.

"Stop looking, go collect the corpses. When the monster dies, it will drop monster seeds." After saying that, Zhou An leaped into the air and transformed into a hawk.

With a flap of its wings, it sped away into the distance.

Upon seeing this, both the benevolent and malevolent entities transformed into eagles and flew away.

They split into three groups to collect the corpses of the monsters that had been killed by the light and were unable to retreat in time.

Defeating monsters does not guarantee a monster drop.

I found out during yesterday's experiment.

But today's strange thing is hordes of death.

Low drop rates don't matter; quantity will win.

About two hours later.

Zhou An looked at the thousands of strange creatures in front of him and nodded in satisfaction.

The three of them searched almost the entire border area and found a total of a thousand strange creatures.

Zhou An waved his hand and put it directly into his inventory.

The inventory is pretty good; you can put anything from this world into it.

"Alright, things are settled. We're heading to Yunfeng City tomorrow to participate in that so-called martial arts tournament."

"Now, let's practice." Zhou An took out the Blood Coagulation Technique.

The malevolent entity curled its lip: "What's so good about this lousy cultivation technique?"

"Didn't Wang Tian reveal a Soul-Devouring Technique?"

"Although it's an evil technique, it's the fastest to cultivate."

With a thought, Zhou An took out another cultivation manual.

The Blood and Flesh Devouring Spirit Technique is a very evil martial art.

Once one cultivates, one can directly devour the life force and vital energy within the flesh and blood of living beings.

It was forcibly converted into resources for one's own cultivation.

It can even be used to recover from injuries.

Most importantly, it is not limited to living things; it can be anything that possesses power, even monsters.

However, when they devour this flesh and blood, they will be contaminated by various foul and violent energies.

If one absorbs too much, their temperament can easily change drastically, becoming more bloodthirsty and insane, eventually turning into a bloodthirsty demon.

"This cultivation technique is feasible, but the negative attributes must be resolved first," Zhou An said slowly.

"That's easy, just use the power of the horse talisman to purify it directly." The evil entity thought Zhou An was worried about something.

"That's the logic, but we also need to consider one more thing."

"Once it is discovered that we have practiced demonic arts, we may not be allowed to continue living."
