Rest In A Demon’s Embrace

"This place is very secure. We should be able to stay here for some time to protect ourselves while training." Da Tou could not help but feel amazed as he looked at the seemingly simple area. Although it was somewhat crude and elementary, the security was much better than what they could have imagined.

When entering the Secret Realm, both Da Tou and Xiao Tou knew that there was a great chance of losing their lives throughout the process. Even so, they soldiered forward, hoping to be as cautious as possible and manage to get through with a few gains.

However, after meeting Luo Xiao, the pair of brothers were no longer willing to stay at the bottom. This was their only chance to jump into a higher tier, so they had to cling to it with all their might.

"Take a short break." Luo Xiao was also quite satisfied with their current camp. It was not easily noticed by others, but it was not hard to access either.

Both Da Tou and Xiao Tou had been busy looking around for suitable items to make their rest more comfortable, and after a short amount of time, three strawbeds had appeared within their camp, alongside a few necessities.

They did not prepare any food nor drinks, as they all had reached a point where their bodies no longer needed food to sustain their energy consumption. Everything within their bodies was fully fueled by the inner energies that roamed through their meridians.

Also, due to this, it did not take the trio long before their energy had been restored, and they all slowly roused from their rest.

"The day still has a few hours left before the night arrives. While we will not be able to leave for long to examine the meadow in front, we can still drag a few beasts out to train our battle abilities." Luo Xiao had looked outside the camp, and he could see that the sun was slowly setting on the horizon.

Even so, the time within the Secret Realm was quite different, and it would take at least a few hours before the light was completely gone, and this time was very suitable for them to train; it seemed wasted if they did nothing for the rest of the night.

"This time we should try to take a look and see if there are any weaker enemies, but maybe in bigger numbers. Trying two enemies at once could be a good trial." Da Tou could not help but mention as he had no refusal to them training again, however he hoped that they could try something differen than the shrew they fought before.

"It might be possible." Luo Xiao did not know much about the animals within the meadow in front, but he did not mind if the enemy was different.

"You can take a look when you lure the beasts over. Just make sure that they are not allowed to be stronger than the previous shrew, and in case you want multiple targets, their individual strength has to be noticeable weaker."

Neither Da Tou nor Xiao Tou felt that Luo Xiao was being too bossy by constantly coming with various remarks, instead they were grateful for his constant reminders. Although they had already known that the enemies had to be weaker, it was always a good feeling to be more careful.

This time, it was Da Tou who went to lure a new target to the two other men. After sneaking around among the tall grass, he finally put his focus on a pair of butterflies that fluttered in the rose-colored rays of sunlight.

The pair of butterflies were both strikingly beautiful and graceful as their wings danced in the beautiful crimson air that had been dyed red by the setting sun.

Da Tou used a pair of Chui Hammers as weapons, and neither of them were suitable for attacking at a distance, so instead, he grapped two small stones from the ground beneath his feet and threw him, as hard as he could, at the two butterflies in front.

As soon as the stones had left his hands, he turned around and ran. He did not need to wait and observe whether the two butterflies had become taunted by his actions, as his previous experiences with the meadow had shown him the ferocity of even the most simple insect and animal. He did not doubt that these beautiful and graceful butterflies were just as bloodthirsty as all others.

"Butterflies?" Xiao Tou's voice could be heard in front, as Da Tou rushed towards their direction. The place they had picked for the battle was a distance away from their camp, but also just outside the tall grass of the meadow, to ensure that no other beast would sneak up on them while battling.

"Do not breathe in the dust from their wings!" Luo Xiao's eyes turned solemn as he looked at the two butterflies in front of him. Although their wings were thin and easy to rip apart, they were coated with a glistening and beautiful dust that shimmered in the light, and also fell down with each flutter of the wings.

However, whenever Luo Xiao looked at this dust, his heart grew uneasy. Da Tou had not seen the dust before, as he had run away as soon as they had been alerted, but Xiao Tou could see the glittering sand in the sunlight.

Black Pagoda Art.

Luo Xiao did not hesitate but to activate his Black Pagoda Art the moment that Da Tou came close to his reach.

Unlike the qi cultivators, his Black Pagoda Art depended on his soul power and spiritual abilities. While they were capable of defending against physical damage, it was just as suitable for mental attacks; as such, the dust should be blocked out by this protective layer on all three young men.
