David secretly spread his divine sense, but was disturbed by the demonic energy in the mist, and he could only explore a radius of ten feet.
“Be careful, the illusion here may affect your consciousness, don’t be fooled.”
After walking for about half an hour, the road suddenly appeared fork ahead. At the intersection stood a stone stele with three characters reading “Black Wind Village”. The characters were twisted and exuded a fierce aura.
“Through this way.”
David pointed to the path on the left, where the demonic aura was stronger, which clearly led to the mountain fortress.
As soon as the two turned onto the left path, the sound of galloping horses suddenly came from within the fog, and over a dozen demonic cultivators riding black wolves appeared in front of them, blocking their path.
These devil cultivators all had ferocious faces, holding knives and axes, and their eyes glinted with greed.
“This road is mine, these trees are mine, if you want to pass, leave your toll!”
The leader of the demon cultivators was a burly man with a wolf’s head, holding a huge ax capable of splitting mountains, and staring fiercely at David and Hu Mazi.
Just when Hu Mazi was about to make a move, David stopped him.
David took out a small piece of immortal stone from his pocket and threw it to the wolf-headed strong man: “We are just passing cultivators and want to rest here for the night. This is just a small token of our appreciation.”
The burly wolf-headed man took the immortal stone, weighed it in his hand, and showed a trace of disdain on his face: “Is this the only immortal stone you have? Are you trying to circumvent me? Hand over all your treasures, or don’t blame me if I’m impolite!”
The devil cultivators behind him also started jeering and brandishing their weapons, instantly creating a tense atmosphere.
A cold glint appeared in David’s eyes, but he resisted the urge to attack: “We are just wild cultivators, we don’t have any treasures, please be kind.”
“A rogue cultivator?”
The burly man with a wolf-shaped head scanned the two men, his gaze finally falling on the clan head identification token in Hu Mazi’s hand. A glint of greed appeared in his eyes. “That kid’s jade pendant looks really good. Hand it over, and I’ll let you guys pass!”
Hu Mazi’s face darkened, and he grasped the token tightly: “This is my family heirloom, I will never hand it over!”
“If you don’t listen to common sense, you will suffer the consequences!”
The burly man with a wolf-shaped head roared and swung his machete at Hu Mazi, shouting, “Take this!”
About a dozen demonic cultivators immediately surrounded them, brandishing their swords and axes, and began slashing at the two.
Without any further hesitation, David channeled his spiritual energy, and a pale golden protective shield enveloped the two of them.
At the same time, he summoned the Dragon Slaying Sword, and golden sword energy swept out, instantly eliminating several of the demonic cultivators charging at the forefront.
The burly, wolf-headed man was shocked by David’s unexpected strength, but he quickly recovered and roared as his ax slashed through David’s protective shield with a sharp whooshing sound.
