You can become stronger by lying down

"Don't you have anything to ask? Since you don't have anything, then get out!"

The Demon Lord raised his index finger and bent it. The dark world receded like a tide, and the three of them returned to the Demonic Abyss.

Mo Yi stayed in place, and when he saw the Demon Lord coming back, he quickly said: "Sir."

He spotted Ji Xian and the others out of the corner of his eye, frowned slightly, and said, "Sir, they..."

Demon Lord's bloody eyes moved down, fell on Mo Yi's face, and said calmly: "Let's talk about this later, let's go!"

Mo Yi did not dare to ask any more questions and followed the Demon Lord away.

"Phew, this devil is finally gone. I was so scared that I almost thought I was going to die in a foreign country today!"

Ji Xian breathed a long sigh of relief, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and said with relief, "Why didn't you make more demands just now? You could have killed him."

He felt a little regretful. Although they had saved a life and gained a pure soul, he wanted more benefits.

Human nature is greedy, and he is no exception.

What's more, the Demon Lord is a strong semi-immortal, an old monster who has lived for countless years, and his net worth is absolutely rich.

He turned a deaf ear to the dusty words, as if he was isolated from the world, immersed in his own world and unable to extricate himself for a long time.

Ji Xian waved his hand in front of him and asked doubtfully: "Hey, what's the matter with you? Didn't you hear me?"

"Ah~oh..."

Chen Yu came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly: "What are you talking about?"

A few black lines appeared on Ji Xian's face, he held his forehead and sighed: "I said, why don't you kill the Demon Lord?"

He was really speechless. A powerful person in the third level of the divine realm should be in a daze on such an important topic. It really shouldn't be!

Chen Yu smiled and said: "You think things are too simple, Demon Killer Lord, how dare you? He is the master of Tian Mo Abyss. His willingness to negotiate with us this time has exceeded my expectations. If we continue If it goes too far, you really have to explain it here.”

Ji Xian didn't say much, but he still felt a little pity in his heart.

…

A few days later, the game ushered in an important event. The third round of the ladder competition began.

There are a thousand players participating in the third round, and each one of them has extraordinary strength. It can be said that they are the most powerful group of all players.

This round of competition is different from the previous two rounds. It adopts a team battle mode. Players form their own teams (five people per team) and compete through drawing lots. Both sides will be awarded corresponding points based on their performance in the game. The top 60 teams in the points ranking can advance to the finals.

In the floating hall in the center of Star City, four figures were standing side by side, overlooking the magnificent city.

"Is the matter resolved?"

Xiao Jingyi turned around and asked Ji Xian beside him, his expression extremely serious.

He and Li An did not follow Ji Xian to the Heavenly Demonic Abyss. The Holy City had an ironclad order that no human being could enter the Heavenly Demonic Abyss without reporting, otherwise they would be punished.

What's more, he is the dean of Tianwu Academy and needs to manage the order of the academy and at the same time control the Demon Emperor's West Palace in the Thorn Forest to prevent them from attacking the human city.

After all, in the Eastern Wasteland, the human cities are basically distributed around Tianwu Academy, forming a situation where the stars overlap the moon.

The cool breeze blew, Ji Xian's black hair fluttered, and he said slowly: "It's solved naturally. We also met the Demon Lord and almost got killed by him."

Xiao Jingyi was stunned and said in shock: "Demon Lord? What exactly did you do in Tianmoyuan? Isn't it just capturing pure souls?"

Afterwards, Ji Xian narrated what happened, with pain and tears between the lines.

"You are pretty good at beating the Demon Lord's men on his territory." Li An said with a smile.

Ji Xian's mouth twitched. Can you blame them? If Demon Yi hadn't taken action to snatch the pure soul, would they have done so?

At this time, Chen Yu, who had been silent, walked up to Xiao Jingyi, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Go back and tell the Holy City that the Demon Lord's cultivation has broken through to the fifth level and has become a half-immortal. If they still want to take advantage of that thing, , it’s better to think clearly, don’t end up in vain, the gain outweighs the loss.”

Xiao Jingyi felt as if he had been struck by five thunders, and was stunned on the spot.

Has the Demon Lord reached semi-immortality? When did this happen? Why didn't any news leak out? It shouldn't be!

The human race had spies stationed in Tianmoyuan. Logically speaking, if the Demon Lord broke through, news would definitely come back, but the result was not.

"This is weird, Li An. You should return to the academy immediately and spread the news back to the Holy City."

Jamel Xiao calmed down and said to Li An calmly.

Li An nodded heavily, then tore through the void and left.

Ji Xian raised his head and glanced at the scorching sun in the sky. Seeing that it was late, he said, "Let's go! Dean Xiao, don't you want to watch the game?"

After speaking, Ji Xian snapped his fingers, and a space-time tunnel appeared. He took the lead and walked in with Chen Yu.

Xiao Jingyi stared at the passage for a few seconds, whispered something interesting, and walked in.

At this moment, a thousand players gathered together on a wide round platform, chattering non-stop.

"Whoever wants to team up with me, I am level 28, have excellent technical skills and can use a lot of leverage."

"The team is short of one. Let's bring in a Night Hunter. The minimum level limit is 30. If you join our team, you will definitely advance."

"Why doesn't anyone want me? I'm level 29, and my thoughts are not low! Are you blind?"

"Brother, I think you should stop thinking about it. That crow's mouth of yours is really very clever."

"I want to be on the same team as the Annihilation boss, but unfortunately they are already full, and they are all great masters. I'm envious."

…

the other side.

"Brother Mie, I think this game is no longer a competition. Who can beat us?" Chen Hao said arrogantly with his hands on his hips.

He glanced at the people present, including captain Annihilation, team members Chu Shengge, Qin Yu, Zhang Qianzhijin and himself.

These five people are currently the highest level in the game. Well... it may not count as a direct attack. Anyway, to put it simply, their team is the strongest.

"Don't be too boastful. We are strong, but that doesn't mean other players are weak." Chu Shengge said.

During the time when the Bloody Plains was blocked, players were farming monsters in the Demonic Abyss and the Endless Sea. Although there was a lot of damage, the rewards were also huge.

Annihilation took a piece of linen cloth and carefully wiped the bow and arrow, and asked casually: "Old Chu, do you think there will be some acquaintances from Blue Star appearing in this competition?"

Chu Shengge frowned. He knew who the acquaintance Annihilation mentioned was referring to, a practitioner on the Blue Star.

While he was thinking, Qin Yu said: "Yes, I just saw an old friend not long ago. He is very strong and is in the early stage of Kaiyuan Realm."

"Old friend? Who is it?" Chu Shengge asked confused.

Qin Yu said: "Zi Chen."

Chu Shengge let out an ooh and said with a smile: "That guy also plays "Stars", which is quite interesting."
