Online: I Can See Health Bars Chapter 1661 - 744: Cold Lake (2)

If there’s a way to lure these environmentally-dependent demons outside, wouldn’t it be easy to deal with them and quickly gain experience points?

Fang Yu was contemplating this possibility...

Rustle, rustle, rustle—

A sudden gust of wind blew from upfront.

The sandstorm swept in like a tornado, instantly engulfing everyone.

The group was riding horses at a fast pace, and with the sudden onset of the dust storm, they charged right into it without hesitation.

"It’s just a bit of sand and wind, no need to worry. However, do stay alert. Before reaching Northern Cold Lake, we might encounter demon attacks. If you’re overwhelmed, call for help loudly, and I will come to the rescue."

Daoist Qing Yan’s voice rang from ahead, but few responded.

Everyone here is going to the Melted Heart Cave in the Land of Gathering Evil. A bit of sand and wind isn’t enough to make them cry for help; what about their dignity?

Places as treacherous as the Qiu Ni Forest, special dangers like that are understandable. Without the support of artifacts, even escaping the forest would be difficult.

But just this sand and wind...

Rustle, rustle, rustle—

The sandstorm intensified abruptly, the wind howled, and everything turned into yellow sand—almost like reaching out your hand yet unable to see your fingers.

This is supposed to be just a bit of sand and wind??

Fang Yu decisively abandoned any hesitation he had, ready to call Daoist Qing Yan for help at the first sign of trouble.

Thunk, thunk!

Thunk, thunk!

A series of tremors suddenly traveled through the ground, causing Fang Yu to immediately focus, squinting his eyes.

Though his vision was limited, his senses remained sharp.

The rows of raised land seemed as though something was rapidly approaching from below.

Combined with the galloping of the Black-footed Horses, the distance between them quickly diminished.

"Roar!!"

Suddenly!

A demon burst out of the ground first!

Then came the second one, the third, the fourth...

[Shaking Sand Demon: 33091/33091.]

[Shaking Sand Demon: 40972/40972.]

[Shaking Sand Demon: 28664/28664.]

[...]

About a dozen Shaking Sand Demons, all identical, emerged from the earth, each brandishing claws and charging towards the group.

Yet, whether it was Fang Yu or the others, everyone remained quite calm.

Fang Yu didn’t know how others gauged the strength of demons, but he could tell immediately that these Shaking Sand Demons weren’t at the same level as the one that dared to attack Sui Chong Pass.

What demon clan.

"Roar!!"

The dozen or so Shaking Sand Demons scattered, attacking the group, with two headed towards Fang Yu.

He reached out, gripping the sword hilt.

As he slowly unsheathed the sword.

The blood... was stirring.

Demon Blood and Demon Sword Blood Drying seemed to resonate in some way.

This time, Fang Yu didn’t let go.

The sword’s blade began to glow.

Crimson light gradually illuminated along the Blood Drying Sword’s patterns.

When roughly a third of the crimson patterns had lit...

Crack.

A crack suddenly appeared on the blade of the Demon Sword Blood Drying.

Can’t, can’t hold up? This darned sword??

Fang Yu’s expression froze.

The two demons’ bloodthirsty mouths were already near!

Fang Yu instantly gathered his thoughts.

Then... Slash!

Buzz!!!

A streak of crimson sword light soared to the sky.

Like spilled blood, it sliced through the bodies of the two demons, disappearing beyond sight.

"..."

Thud.

Thud.

The two headless Shaking Sand Demons almost simultaneously had their heads roll and fell to the ground, lifeless.

[System Prompt:...]

The minimal experience points offered by the demons with a blood volume of twenty to thirty thousand were ignored by Fang Yu.

He was in perception.

Perceiving the feeling just now.

The surrounding sandstorm’s intensity quickly weakened with the deaths of several Shaking Sand Demons, and the visibility gradually cleared up.

"Is this the power of the Demon Sword? It’s not impressive at all. Kid, sell it to me now, there’s still time."

Fatty Jia’s voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Fang Yu turned around to glance at him but said nothing.

Fatty Jia shrugged, seemingly uninterested, and accelerated past Fang Yu with a ’jia’ sound.

"..."

Luo Jianqing ahead also glanced back at Fang Yu at this moment, but his sight was on Fang Yu’s palm.

Fang Yu was startled and immediately looked down.

Only to see his palm skin melting like a candle, creating a sticky sensation with the hilt of the Blood Drying Sword.

Fang Yu frowned and sheathed the sword.

The sensation of bloodline agitation stopped immediately, he opened his palm to examine it.

The skin on his palm looked like peeling in winter, missing chunks here and there.

However, with the natural circulation of the Demon Bloodline, the sticky, peeled palm skin was slowly growing back, gradually healing.

"..."

Fang Yu clenched his palm, then opened it again, pondering something.

"Hurry up, or we’ll fall behind again."

The demon Feng Yahui swiftly passed by him, riding forward until disappearing from sight.

Fang Yu also stopped lingering...

"Jia!"

Speeding up to catch up with the team.

This team of theirs was really strong.

So strong that ordinary demons didn’t stand a chance to get close; they’d be blasted to smithereens.

Slightly tougher demons needed to appear in groups, slowing the team’s progress slightly, but they were quickly solved in a fast-paced battle before accelerating to continue on their journey.

Due to not concealing their tracks and causing quite a commotion, they ended up killing quite a few demons along the way.

Fang Yu glanced at the system records, discovering he had gained almost ten attribute points just on this stretch of road.

This was due to team battles, giving fewer experience points.

Fang Yu couldn’t help but wonder, if he could build an army like this to hunt demons and grind experience, wouldn’t that be super fast?

But then he thought, with a team of this level and allies of this strength, following his orders would be miraculous.

Take Luo Jianqing, for example, he would cleanly take down any demon with just a few sword strokes, unbelievably strong, even when far away. Fang Yu couldn’t see the trajectory of his moves, nor tell how many sword strokes he was swinging.

Then there’s Dongfang Tong, although Fang Yu privately called him ’O arrogant,’ in real fights, this guy threw punches with wide-open moves, each move seemed to induce Heaven and Earth Qi, creating thunderous sounds that were terrifyingly powerful.

Damage between four and five thousand came easily; it’s uncertain if the demon’s strength was too low or his moves had special effects against demons.

Compared, Fatty Jia and Guan Anxuan were more restrained, although they quickly dealt with demons, they did so quietly without revealing much.

Regarding old demons, Fang Yu was lazy to care, only a quick glance to check if they’re alive and haven’t revealed their true demon form, then directly ignored them.

And for Fang Yu himself, later only used Bone Blade, not touching the Demon Sword anymore.

Too fragile.

Even Fang Yu found it unbelievable.

Just this amount of blood infusion, and the Demon Sword couldn’t hold up.

This technique apparently really is a product of ancient times... with a feeling of brokenness and inferiority.

Didn’t accidentally pick up a piece of trash?

But upon carefully feeling the Demon Sword in his hand, sensing the bloodline agitation, he immediately felt that the Blood Dried Demon Sword should not be so simple.

However, to avoid damaging the Demon Sword, it is better not to use it recklessly for now.

"We’re almost there; the temperature is dropping. Beyond ahead, it should be the North Cold Lake."

Daoist Qing Yan’s voice brought Fang Yu back to reality.

Looking up ahead, he saw a line of silver glittering scales into his view.

Though there’s still quite a distance to go, he could already feel the slight cold.

Looking up again at the sky, it’s clearly noon, with the sun high; yet, able to feel cold, the upcoming North Cold Lake seems extraordinary, no wonder it’s one of the natural barriers in the Land of Gathering Evil.

Wait!

Noon...

Fang Yu looked at the leading Daoist Qing Yan.

It seemed he really timed it accurately, leading the team forward.

This time of day should be the warmest.

Coming into the North Cold Lake now, not saying how effective it is, but it may have some effect, using external conditions to the fullest.

No wonder rushing forward earlier.

"Jia!"

Several accelerated.
