Strangely enough, they had no idea whether they were dead or had simply disappeared.

Yu Ang gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, could it be those damned students who did it?"

Although this area is suppressed by the Night-Ruling Array, there are still some outstanding individuals among these students. Even under suppression, dealing with some of the Black Beast Demons is not difficult.

"This is all the Black Beast Demons I have left. You should know the consequences if I don't get the Earthly Sacred Spring," Yu Ang said, handing Fu Tianming another dark, fleshy ball.

This thing looks absolutely disgusting!

However, Fu Tianming was quite excited when he saw the ball of flesh.

With a casual pinch, more than thirty black beast demons appeared.

"My lord, rest assured, I will definitely find the Sacred Spring."

After saying that, Fu Tianming left.

Meanwhile, Cao Le didn't encounter the Black Beast Demon again. However, he did find the location of the Shadow Beast.

But right now, Jia Wenqing, Luo Song, and Shen Mingxiao, who had just arrived not long ago, were all here. The three of them were working together to deal with Mo Fan.

Although Mo Fan desperately wanted to kill these members of the Black Vatican, the problem was that Luo Song and Shen Mingxiao weren't members of the Black Vatican. Moreover, both of them had powerful backgrounds, and killing them as well would only create more trouble for himself.

Left with no other option, he had to flee.

Two of the three had a deep grudge against Mo Fan, and the third one, although not deeply antagonistic, was still an obstacle like Mo Fan, so it was best to get rid of him if possible.

Cao Le watched as Mo Fan escaped into the prison, while Jia Wenqing retrieved the Earthly Holy Spring from the Shadow Beast and went to find Yu Ang.

Luo Song and Shen Mingxiao had no idea what Jia Wenqing had taken away; for them, the Three-Step Tower, a cultivation resource, was far more important.

At this moment, Fu Tianming also joined the two.

When he saw that the Shadow Beast was already in their hands, he was certain that Jia Wenqing had completed his mission.

"Luo Song, Shen Mingxiao, you two are really as stupid as can be!"

When Fu Tianming arrived with the Black Beast Demon, Cao Le also appeared.

"Ok?"

"who!"

Upon hearing this, both of them turned around and looked over.

As Cao Le emerged from the shadows, the three of them were all puzzled.

They clearly didn't know much about Cao Le.

"Hey kid, who are you? Looking for a beating?" Shen Mingxiao was annoyed at being called stupid.

“Idiots, the people behind you two are from the Black Vatican. You’re blind, fine, but can’t you smell this stench?” Cao Le continued.

The two of them paused...

To be honest, they really did smell a foul odor.

But the two of them instinctively assumed it was the Shadow Beast.

After hearing what Cao Le said, they did realize that something was wrong.

Mo Fan said that Jia Wenqing and Fu Tianming were members of the Black Vatican, but at that time, because Mo Fan was more disliked, the two of them did not believe him.

But even Cao Le, who isn't very famous, said they were from the Black Vatican, and especially with that strange smell, something really wasn't right!

Sure enough, Mo Fan's constitution, which even dogs dislike, often does cause quite a bit of trouble.

Fu Tianming hadn't expected this sudden appearance to reveal his identity so easily. Adding to the fact that the aura of the black beast demon behind him was indeed quite strong, and Shen Mingxiao and Luo Song both looked at him with suspicion.

He decided to stop hiding it!

"Ha ha ha ha...."

Fu Tianming suddenly burst into wild laughter, then said coldly, "You could have lived, but now you insist on courting death... so don't blame me."

"Go! Tear them apart!"

The next moment, the more than thirty black beast demons behind him pounced out one by one!

The moment Shen Mingxiao and Luo Song saw these black beasts, their first reaction was "Run!"

The two did not merely react; they quickly took action.

They truly hadn't expected that Fu Tianming and Jia Wenqing were actually members of the Black Vatican!

This guy is collaborating with the Black Vatican. If the Inquisition finds out, he'll be killed—he deserves it!

As for the Shadow Beasts right now?

They both felt that life was more important, and that the Three Steps Tower and such were still possible once they entered the main campus.

But if they stayed here, they'd definitely have no chance. With the Nightfall Domination Formation suppressing them, and so many Black Beast Demons around, how could they possibly hold out?

Fu Tianming watched the two flee for their lives and burst into wild laughter.

"Escape? You think you can escape?! Hahaha...uh..."

Fu Tianming was laughing wildly, but suddenly felt a cold sensation on his neck.

The next moment, all his words came to an abrupt halt.

73. Hush money

Cao Le felt it was a waste of time to listen to this weakling extra say even one more word.

When Cao Le killed him with a single strike, to his surprise, a wisp of black energy floated out from the guy's body and directly entered his demonic weapon.

He could understand the black aura emanating from the Black Beast Demon; after all, they were cursed creatures. But the fact that Fu Tianming, a human, also possessed this substance puzzled him greatly!

But thinking about it carefully...

Those who join the Black Vatican seem to have some kind of special suppressive drug?

The reason I was able to absorb some dark energy after killing him must be because of this, right?

Until he figured it out, that was the only conclusion he could draw.

After dealing with Fu Tianming, these black beast demons made strange noises and then attacked Cao Le.

As for the shadow beast, it was cowering there, trembling with fear.

It's not that it lacks fighting power, it's just that there are simply too many of these black beast demons, and it can't handle them!

"Giant Shadow Nail!"

Even Cao Le dared not underestimate so many Black Beast Demons. He quickly completed the mid-level Shadow Star Map.

A giant black nail appeared!

"Spatial Rhythm - Compression!"

Just as the giant shadow nail pierced through, Cao Le immediately followed up with a spatial magic spell.

A silver light appeared in front of the giant shadow nail!

Originally just a black energy nail, it instantly transformed into countless black energy silver needles under the compression of the spatial system!

"Swish swish~!!"

"Swish swish~!!"

The black demons showed absolutely no fear in the face of these tiny silver needles.

And just as the silver needles pierced through their bodies with a "plop plop plop" sound, they realized that these small silver needles were no less powerful than the Giant Shadow Nails?

This is more than just confinement; the moment the needles were inserted into their bodies, they were almost completely unable to move!

After subduing nearly twenty black beast demons, Cao Le's dagger suddenly transformed into a greatsword.

With a "thud," the sword tip struck the ground. With the help of the domain power of the Night Domination Array, black energy continuously poured into the greatsword.

Ultimately, it is the Dark Realm, where all dark equipment and skills receive great preferential treatment.

Once the energy was fully charged, Cao Le drew his greatsword, unleashing several black energy sword waves that swept towards the controlled black beast demon and the black beast demon charging towards him.

"Pfft pfft pfft~~!!"

As expected, the dark energy pierced directly through their bodies. The terrifying destructive power spread from the center, ultimately... all thirty-odd black beast demons were annihilated in an instant!

I have a feeling this is going to be a huge hit!

But after this wave of attacks, Cao Le couldn't help but exclaim in his mind, "Holy crap!"

This is like a cow flying on an airplane!

Of course, this kind of energy absorption is only suitable for combat. Otherwise, why would he be fighting for the Three-Step Tower?

If you diligently cultivate here for a few days and nights, the results will definitely not be much worse than those at the Three-Step Pagoda.

After absorbing a wave of dark energy, the demonic artifact in Cao Le's hand disappeared. He then prepared to transform into Shadow again to search for the whereabouts of the Black Beast Demon.

But before he could leave, the forgotten shadow beast came to Cao Le's side, carrying its own rope in its mouth.

"What the hell?? You're acting all high and mighty as a demon? Why aren't you running away and instead you're handing me a rope?" Cao Le was completely dumbfounded by this turn of events.

The shadow beast looked so pitiful, begging to be taken in, which really gave him a headache...

It's the perfect time to collect dark energy, and this thing actually wants to come with me?

Come to think of it, he could collect dark energy at any time. And the shadow beasts were practically offering themselves up to him. He really had no reason to refuse!

With no other option, Cao Le had to abandon the search for the Black Beast Demon and instead led the Shadow Beast towards the Summoning Beast Cage.

Of course, Cao Le called Mu Nujiao and Ai Tutu before going.

After all, it was agreed that he would take two girls with him, so it was somewhat inappropriate for him to send the Shadow Beast to the Summoning Beast Cage alone.

However, it seemed he had forgotten something...

But thinking about it carefully, what could be more important than a girl?

After Mu Nujiao and Ai Tutu reunited, the two women were both stunned to see the Shadow Beast dragging Cao Le towards them...

"Others grab it and walk, but you're riding it instead?" Mu Nujiao stared blankly at the scene before her, and said in a daze.

"You might not believe it, but this idiot bit the rope himself and wanted to come with me," Cao Le said with a shrug.
