Boarding Life

Chapter 812 812

After all, the storm ending also means that those evil demons could catch up at any moment.

Zuo Qingyue and Wenren Xiaoxian dared not linger, quickly following Qin Qi.

The three of them disappeared from the spot within moments.

Several hours later.

The Demon King, who had once hunted Qin Qi, fell from the sky with a thunderous crash, arriving at the spot where Qin Qi and the others had just left.

The bloodthirsty eyes observed the surroundings.

The octopus-like head, unclear on what it was thinking.

Meanwhile, Qin Qi had already embarked on a new journey with Zuo Qingyue and Wenren Xiaoxian.

Yet unknown to them, at that very moment.

Deep within Ore Vein Mountain, at the edges of the restriction sealing the evil demons.

Zhang Jinkui and Zhang Sihai arrived together.

"Ancestor, are we really sure about ambushing Qin Qi here? What if Qin Qi doesn't choose this route?" Zhang Sihai asked excitedly.

Zhang Jinkui sneered with an evil grin, "What are you thinking? If he wants to access the Secret Realm area, this route is essential!"

"As long as Qin Qi aims to enter the Secret Realm, he must take this path. All we need to do is prepare in advance."

"Once Qin Qi arrives here, it's his end!"

With Zhang Jinkui's words, Zhang Sihai had no objections.

After all, Zhang Jinkui was considered a living fossil of the Zhang Family.

Thinking about this, Zhang Sihai was eager to act, "Just hope this Qin Qi can hold on longer and doesn't perish before reaching us!"

Zhang Jinkui, his hands behind his back, said, "This Qin Qi is blessed with great fortune, won't die that easily. Therefore, our entry into the Demon Slaying Area must be foolproof!"

"Once inside, follow my orders. These evil demons are extremely dangerous; let's not fail to catch Qin Qi and fall ourselves!"

Zhang Sihai naturally understood the danger of the evil demons, "Rest assured, Ancestor!"

With those words, Zhang Jinkui didn't hesitate. A seemingly ordinary black stone appeared in his hand suddenly.

Yet when this black stone appeared, touching the restriction that could cover the sky.

Suddenly, the restriction completely opened a gap.

Through the gap, Zhang Jinkui and Zhang Sihai entered seamlessly.

Zhang Sihai exclaimed in surprise, "Ancestor, this thing can truly allow us to enter the Demon Slaying Area?"

Zhang Jinkui laughed coldly, "Years ago, two strong predecessors from the Zhang Family emerged from the Secret Realm into the Martial Arts District."

"One founded the Leihu Mountain, and the other is our Zhang Family's true ancestor."

"This Realm-breaking Stone was left by that ancestor. Its effects, let alone these restrictions, ha!"

"Enough, you wouldn't understand even if I told you more!"

As the two entered the Demon Slaying Area.

The gap in the restriction gradually healed at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The whole process went unnoticed by anyone.

...

Just like that, two days quickly passed by.

During these two days, Qin Qi didn't encounter any evil demons.

This made him particularly puzzled.

Based on his guess, these evil demons could share memories.

Even if not encountering a large group, he should have come across some that were out to hunt or look for him.

"Is my guess wrong?" Qin Qi thought to himself, "Maybe they actually can't truly share memories?"

The mysterious woman calmly stated, "Based on my judgment, memory sharing is real, but not as exaggerated as we thought."

"Guess this memory sharing has certain limitations!"

Qin Qi asked puzzled, "Limitations? What do you mean?"

The mysterious woman explained, "Years ago, when I escaped from the Secret Realm, I had many encounters with these evil demons. I understand some of their habits."

"These evil demons belong to different groups; typically, each group has one or two Demon King level leaders."

"Each group occupies its own area without interference. Now it seems memory sharing might only link within a specific group!"

"And this memory sharing ability most likely comes from these Demon Kings!"

With the mysterious woman's explanation, Qin Qi found it extremely reasonable.

He murmured to himself, "So, as long as I follow your route and keep distance from the first batch of demons that chased me, I should be safe."

"But is this route really safe?"

Considering various aspects, he asked another question.

The mysterious woman leisurely responded, "There's no absolute safety. This is the territory of the evil demons; the route given is only relatively safe!"

"However, as you said, only the first batch we encountered would have your information!"

Qin Qi nodded silently.

Yet for some reason, he felt an unpleasant foreboding.

As if some unknown danger was slowly brewing, about to arrive!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "Where are we now?"

The mysterious woman replied, "About halfway through. Next, we will reach 'Mingzhi Mountain.' Beyond Mingzhi Mountain is the second half of the route!"

"Mingzhi Mountain?" Qin Qi hesitated.

The mysterious woman explained, "Mingzhi Mountain was once called the Path of Immortals by common people. Because of the single long path resembling a finger when viewed from above."

"Moreover, beyond Mingzhi Mountain is the Secret Realm entrance."

"It's a pity though since the evil demons, Mingzhi Mountain has completely become a part of the Demon Slaying Area."

Qin Qi couldn't help but inquire, "Is Mingzhi Mountain guarded by evil demons?"

"Not at all!"

The mysterious woman slightly opened her lips, "The path of Mingzhi Mountain is narrow, not fitting the survival habits of the evil demons. They need wider spaces for living."

With that statement, Qin Qi felt much more at ease.

And indeed, just as the mysterious woman said.

Before long, he, Wenren Xiaoxian, and Zuo Qingyue saw a winding, towering mountain range.

Wenren Xiaoxian slightly opened her lips, "Senior Sister Zuo, this must be the Mingzhi Mountain mentioned in the map. We've completed half of our journey."

Zuo Qingyue's eyes also lit up.

Halfway through, it meant they truly had hope of reaching the Secret Realm.

At the same time, the looks in their eyes towards Qin Qi were filled with admiration and respect.

After all, weren't it for Qin Qi, following her route might have been a repeated struggle.
