Chapter Fifty-Four: Capturing the Heavenly Demon

  Su Che made up his mind and said to Yu Qing, "Brother, I want to go through this alone. Can you send me to a relatively safer location? I think I should be able to handle it."

  "No way!"

  Yu Qing resolutely vetoed: "Doing so is tantamount to suicide! Su Shidi, I understand that you have good intentions, but since I brought you in, I must be responsible for your safety."

  Linglong also advised: "Su Shidi, your strength is barely enough to deal with two Tianmo, and if there are more, you will surely die! Matters of life and death cannot be taken lightly."

  Su Che nodded slightly, fell silent for a moment, and then said with determination: "I still want to take this opportunity to temper myself. Following you will only make me lazy... So, please send me to the exit of the Demon Sealing Domain. It should be much safer there. I'll cultivate in that area for now. If I encounter any danger that I can't handle, I can also escape in time."

  Yu Qing and Ling Long exchanged a glance, both thinking that this method was actually quite good. The exit of the Demon Sealing Domain could be said to be a true vacuum zone, with only a few low-level heavenly demons present. If Su Che were to cultivate there, it would indeed be suitable...

  Seeing them quite moved, Su Che took advantage of the situation and explained all sorts of reasons, finally convincing Yu Qing and Ling Long.

  Half an hour later, Yu Qing and the others sent Su Che to the exit of the Demon Sealing Realm, which was located in the outermost area of the fourth district. Along the way, they indeed did not encounter many heavenly demons.

  The so-called exit is a transmission array composed of five giant stone pillars. Entering the array and triggering the transmission crystal with true energy can leave the Demon Sealing Realm.

  Yu Qing said, "The runes on these five stone pillars have a restraining effect on the heavenly demons, so those low-level heavenly demons are unwilling to approach this place. You should be relatively safe staying here to cultivate."

  Su Che deliberately put on a delighted expression, nodding his head and saying: "Great, I can just use the effects of these stone pillars to my advantage. Each time, I'll only lure one or two Heavenly Demons, it's definitely going to be easy."

  Yu Qing nodded slightly, but still showed a faintly apologetic expression, and said in a low voice: "Su Shidi, you must be more careful, if it's really not possible, then withdraw from the Demon Sealing Domain, don't force yourself too much."

  "Don't worry, brother. You've taken care of me enough." Su Che said with a smile: "My personal safety is my own responsibility, I have confidence in myself!"

  Yu Qing nodded slightly and turned to leave.

  Linglong followed behind him, walked a few steps, but turned back to give a bright smile, and quietly stretched out her thumb at Su Che.

  "He's not very old, but he's mature beyond his years, understanding and considerate of others, with a strong sense of self-respect and courage to boot. He has many good qualities..." At this moment, Linglong's evaluation of Su Che rose to another level.

  Yu Qing brother and sister left, Su Che began to move slowly in another direction.

  "That's great, I'm finally free!" Lao Hei was already impatient, but he didn't lose his composure and reminded him, "Master, don't summon too many Tianmo at once. You and I can work together to deal with three or five of them, it shouldn't be a problem."

  "I understand." Su Che replied in his heart.

  After walking hundreds of steps, two wandering Tianmo were found behind a giant stone, and similarly, they also discovered Su Che for the first time.

  "A human, and yet so weak?" one of the heavenly demons shouted.

  "Huh? Why can't I sense his thoughts, our mind-reading technique doesn't work on him?" Another Heavenly Demon was surprised, normally, with such a low level of power, it should be easy to see through his mind.

  Communication between demons is generally unintelligible to humans, who can only hear their eerie wails and howls. They will use human language only when they want you to understand them.

  Laohei has the bloodline of Tianmo, so he is also proficient in their language. Therefore, Su Che can also understand the language of Tianmo.

  In order not to attract more heavenly demons, Su Che slowly retreated and was soon caught up by the two heavenly demons.

  "Little brat, you're a disciple of the Tian Xuan Sect, but your strength is so weak. How did you manage to get in here?" one of the heavenly demons roared in human language.

  "Why should I answer you?" Su Che knew that Tianmo was cunning and extremely intelligent, which also meant they had curiosity.

  "Whether you say it or not is up to you, but once your soul is consumed, we will naturally know the answer."

  Two heavenly demons transformed into devilish forms and pounced on them with a loud roar.

  Due to Su Che's mind being protected by Xian Yin and Lao Hei, these demons could not sense Su Che's thought world, nor could they find his psychological weakness, so they couldn't transform into someone's appearance to confuse him, and could only use the most direct attack method.

  Hmmm...

  Su Che triggered the Five Elements Ring's fire attribute shield, a pale red flame enveloped his entire body. Each time the two Tianmo touched this fire-based shield, they would be burned and let out a loud cry.

  However, they can withstand this degree of scorching and quickly flutter around Su Che, wanting to find a breakthrough.

  "Let one in and try it!"

  Su Che's heart moved slightly, intentionally revealing a loophole the size of a bowl on the protective cover, which was immediately seized by a certain Tianmo.

  Although the hole was small, Tianmo had the ability to change shape at will, and in an instant, it transformed into a wisp of green smoke, slipping through the hole and drilling inside.

  Breaking through Su Che's defense, this Tianmo was extremely excited and pounced on him, only to pounce on Su Che's head.

  Possession successful!

  Tianmo got his wish, disappeared without a trace, and smoothly entered the depths of Su Che's mind.

  "Ga ga, come in. You're done for, kid, your body belongs to me now." Tianmo's demonic flames surged wildly as he let out a frenzied howl, seeking to immediately shatter Su Che's soul defense.

  "Haha, got it!" The response wasn't Su Che's thoughts, but Lao Hei's loud voice.

  In Su Che's mind, Lao Hei's huge paw suddenly reached out from the large gate at the bottom of the Black Tower and grabbed the Tian Mo, pulling it in without hesitation.

  "Ah!"

  Tianmo let out a very short scream, and then Su Che's mind returned to calmness.

  "Just a few breaths later, Lao Hei said: 'Master, done! Next one!'"

  Su Che didn't have time to see how Lao Hei dealt with the Tianmo in Xianyu, and at this moment, he deliberately revealed a flaw on the protective screen, allowing another Tianmo to enter.

  Tianmo's favorite thing is to possess and devour souls. For them, this is a deeply ingrained instinct that almost doesn't require consideration. As long as they grasp any opportunity, they will pounce on someone's head.

  At this moment, the Tianmo didn't consider anything and directly entered Su Che's mind. It didn't think about its own situation either, but followed its instincts and drilled into Su Che's brain.

  The next game was the same, Su Che's mind was completely in Lao Hei's home court, using the magical power of the Xianyu Pagoda to capture these low-level Tianmo, for Lao Hei, it was as easy as turning over his hand.

  Plop! Su Che withdrew the fire-elemental shield and grasped the Five Elemental Ring in his hand.

  "It seems that among the three tribes of humans, demons and monsters, the Tower of Samsara has the strongest restraining effect on ghosts or demons without physical bodies. If it were a human or demon beast with similar strength, it would be impossible to win so easily."

  "When capturing Han Youming and Lu Lao, they must be beaten into a state of unconsciousness without resistance, in order to capture them into the Xian prison; however, when dealing with the heavenly demon that has no physical body, it can be captured by force..."

  Su Che concluded in his heart: "Enough to confirm, when dealing with spiritual body-like creatures, I have a great advantage. Should think carefully about how to make the most of this advantage and create the greatest benefit for myself..."

  The two Tianmo were completely settled, and Su Che could focus his attention on the first layer of Xianyu, watching how Lao Hei would deal with them.

  In the Xian prison, two clusters of semi-transparent airflow floated quietly in front of Lao Hei. They were the two Tianmo that had just been caught and brought in. At this moment, they seemed to be dead, completely silent and still, having lost their previous arrogance and clamor.

  Su Che was curious: the creatures that were caught and brought to the Xian prison, as long as they weren't dead yet, their thoughts and consciousness should be normal. Whether it's a human or a demon, logically speaking, they should all be screaming in terror, asking questions like "Where is this place?" or "What is this place?"...

  But how could these two heavenly demons be so honest?

  Su Che's question, Lao Hei immediately sensed and responded: "Master, your previous inference is absolutely correct. The Xianyu has the strongest restraining effect on spiritual bodies. Because they don't have a physical body, controlling them becomes extremely easy... Dealing with humans like Han Youming, I still need to use some physical effort; controlling spiritual bodies, I don't even need to lift a finger, just a thought can do it."

  "I see." Su Che nodded in his heart and asked again: "Next, are you going to start dinner?"

  "Yes, master." Old Black grinned, showing his sharp teeth.
