Outside the door, sat the Black Mountain Old Demon, Li Wuqi, and White Ghost.

A man and two dogs cuddled up to each other, looking at the mountains and forests in the distance. Unfortunately, the clouds and mist made it difficult to see clearly.

"Brother, the sun has really come out..."

The sun broke through the clouds and mist, and Li Wuqi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Woof!"

The two big dogs broke away from Li Wuqi's arms and ran into the courtyard to stretch their limbs.

Li Wuqi walked into the door and smiled at her: "Wuxin."

Li Wuxin was staring blankly at the sunshine outside the window, his eyes bright and lively.

The light was too dazzling, and tears welled up in my eyes and wet my face.

"Brother..." Li Wuxin stretched out his hand.

"Yes." Li Wuqi held her cold hand and said softly, "Close your eyes and have a good rest."

Li Wuxin closed his eyes obediently, "Brother, I see you...you...are different from before."

The brother I remember is still the same as he was more than ten years ago, shy and thin.

But that look just now, he was tall, straight, handsome, warm...

Li Wuqi smiled and hugged his sister: "When we left Niniu Town, we were already different Li Wuqi and Li Wuxin."

"Brother, thank you."

"Is there anything you feel uncomfortable about?"

"No, it's just that my eyes are a little hot."

"Where are your legs? Do you feel it? Can you move it?"

Li Wuxin tried to feel it, then shook his head: "I can't feel it, so I can't move."

Li Wuqi frowned slightly, but then relaxed his brows and said to himself: "Perhaps the effect of the medicine has not reached that level yet..."

"It's already good if you can see it." Li Wuxin buried his head deeply in his brother's arms.

…

Stone Cow Slaughterhouse.

Li Wuqi arrived on horseback and met Director Shen. He handed the peony back and thanked him.

Director Shen smiled and patted the horse's head: "It seems she has served you well. Come back next time."

Monster slaughterhouse.

Lu Zhangdao has been waiting for a long time.

"What's wrong?"

Translation:How is your sister's matter going?

Li Wuqi saluted and said, "That's it."

Translation: Anyway, we can work now.

Lu Zhangdao nodded and explained: "Similar to the realm of martial arts practice, monsters are divided into levels one to nine from weak to strong."

"This Demon Slaying Cave at this time." Lu Zhangdao stamped his foot lightly, "It is a first-level Demon Slaying Cave. It only slaughters third-level demon beasts and below."

Li Wuqi asked curiously: "Are there other demon-slaying caves?"

"Just below here is the second-level demon-slaying cave, where fourth- and fifth-level demon beasts are slaughtered. There are three demon-slayers in total, all of whom are martial artists."

Li Wuqi thought thoughtfully: "Is there a third-level demon-slaying cave?"

Lu Zhangdao shook his head and said: "The fifth-level monsters are already very terrifying existences; the sixth-level monsters are already demon kings that can bring disaster to one party. How can we mortals dare to touch them?"

"Today, you kill this one first." Lu Zhangdao finally stopped in front of an iron cage - a six-foot-long crocodile! Six iron chains locked its mouth, limbs, and tail respectively.

The crocodile lay quietly in the cage, not struggling, its small eyes flashing with cold light, always staring at the visitor.

Li Wuqi walked around the iron cage, observed the crocodile carefully, frowned and said, "With such a hard skin, I'm afraid it can't be cut with a knife, right?"

"When you slay demons, you always kill them with one strike." Lu Zhangdao looked at him, "You seem to be practicing a unique martial art?"

Li Wuqi didn't comment and just asked: "How should I kill the third-level monster?"

"Looking for its weak point and killing it with one strike is no different from the first and second level skills."

"The crocodile's weak point should be in its abdomen."

"The abdomen is indeed the most vulnerable part of the crocodile. According to legend, if a fisherman wants to kill a crocodile, he will lure the crocodiles ashore with mutton and place sharp blades on their path. After eating the meat, the crocodiles will mostly choose to return the same way they came.

Then he was disemboweled by a razor blade on the road."

"But..." Lu Zhangdao paused for a moment, and then said, "That move is only effective against crocodiles, and is ineffective against third-level monsters. Monster Qi body protection, they know better than you where they need to protect, causing the weakest point to become

The strongest point.”

Li Wuqi said: "Then where is its real weakness?"

"In...the gap between the demonic energy."

"Yei Qi? What do you think?"

"Look with your eyes. Demonic energy is flowing, so that fatal gap is constantly moving and changing. You need to seize the opportunity."

Li Wuqi held a sharp knife and stared at the crocodile intently, trying to see where its gaps were hidden.

"Is that the hole?"

"No..." Lu Zhangdao's face darkened, "That can only prove the gender of the crocodile... What I asked you to find is not the gap of the crocodile, but the gap of the evil spirit..."

Li Wuqi smiled awkwardly: "I know, I was joking."

Crocodile:"……"

[Looking for demonic energy, understanding progress 15/100]

The system prompt suddenly popped up, and Li Wuqi was overjoyed: Since the system has come forward, the crocodile will definitely not be able to leave today.

A quarter of an hour.

[Looking for demonic energy, understanding progress 35/100]

As the progress increased, a hazy mist gradually rose from the crocodile and appeared in Li Wuqi's eyes.

Half an hour.

[Looking for demonic energy, understanding progress 67/100]

The mist became clearer and clearer, quietly surging with the crocodile's breathing.

One hour.

[In search of evil spirits, the understanding progress is 99/100]

Hour by breath.

[Looking for demonic energy, understanding progress 100/100]

[You have understood the "Qi Observation Technique" (human energy, demonic energy, divine energy, all enter my eyes)]

In Li Wuqi's eyes, a light green air seeped out from every texture of the crocodile, blended with each other, and formed a dark green airflow cover on the surface, flowing slowly.

"I think I saw it."

The sharp long bayonet spun around in Li Wuqi's hand, and then stabbed between the crocodile's eyes.

["Sword Skills" proficiency level 16]

One-Knife Killing Technique!

It was like cutting tofu with a knife, without any hindrance.

The crocodile sighed heavily.

As a third-level monster with spiritual wisdom, it had already prepared for it. From the moment it came to this place, it had only one ending.

There was no struggling, no roaring, not even any mental fluctuations.

The vitality quickly dissipated, and the dark green demonic aura gradually faded away like forest mist in the mountains meeting the mountain breeze.

[Kill with one sword! "Kill with one sword" proficiency level 800]

"Huh?" Lu Zhangdao frowned, "An hour..."

Li Wuqi pulled out the knife, untied the chain, and carried the crocodile body to the butchering table.

He sharpened the sharpest boning knife among the pig-killing knives, then stabbed it into the crocodile's belly and began to cut it.
