The flesh of the arm, thigh, and buttocks squirmed as the wound healed rapidly. In just a few minutes, his injuries would be completely healed.
"Here it comes." He picked up the steel rod and ran towards the demon cat, swinging the hollow steel pipe, as thick as an arm and three meters long, horizontally. The demon cat had agile movements, dodging several attacks until it was eventually hit.
Its whiskers had already fallen off, losing the agility it once had.
Liu Yu, in fear, tugged at Liu Yujie's clothes and whispered, "Let's go back! It's too terrifying. I feel like they're not human anymore."
Liu Yujie was also a bit frightened. He had previously wanted to hunt a few demons and consume their hearts to gain power and immortality. But seeing the might of the demon dogs and the terrifying posture of demon hunters swallowing demon hearts, the thoughts in his mind were completely extinguished.
After two seconds of silence, Liu Yujie said, "Let's go back."
The two of them looked at Zhang Yang, who was standing in the corner of the wall, staring motionlessly at the battlefield outside with a fiery look in his eyes. Seeing the power of the demon hunters, and their mighty recovery abilities, he was utterly yearning.
"Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang, let's go." Liu Yu called out softly.
After calling several times, Zhang Yang heard Liu Yu's voice and asked curiously, "Not hunting demons anymore?"
"No, you've seen it too. The demons are even more formidable than tigers; we can't handle them. Let's just go back to class honestly." Liu Yujie said.
A slight look of disappointment flashed in Zhang Yang's eyes. He thought Liu Yujie was also a hero but didn't expect him to become fearful and hesitant at such a small challenge. Forget it, he would go on his own next time!
Seeing the battle had ended and the hearts of the four demons had all been taken by others, Zhang Yang had no choice but to follow the two back.
Ten level 1 demon hearts in Fan Long's body devoured each other, forming a more powerful level 2 demon heart.
The division of levels 1 and 2 was entirely defined by the demon hunters themselves. If the demon heart within the body devours, fuses, and evolves once, it counts as leveling up by one.
Fan Long swung the increasingly lighter steel pipe, smashing the demon dog's corpse into a pulp. After leveling up, he felt his strength was at least two or three thousand pounds.
A strength of two or three thousand pounds is roughly the power of the fourth stage of the Body Refinement realm.
A level 1 demon hunter equates to a low-tier Body Refinement realm, level 2 equates to a mid-tier Body Refinement realm, level 3 equates to a high-tier Body Refinement realm, and level 4 equates to a low-tier Qi Cultivation realm, and so on.
Fan Long waved the steel pipe, pointing to a small alley by the street, and said, "There seem to be a few people over there wanting to join the demon hunters. Let's bring them back; the leader will reward us."
Zheng Zhe looked towards the alley where Liu Yujie and the others were, his dark eyes showing no emotional fluctuation, "Bring them back and strengthen the demon hunters."
About to make a move, Lu Yu stopped as he heard their conversation, watching them knock out the three and carry them away.
Flying in mid-air, Lu Yu followed them back to their lair.
Midway, Liu Tao suddenly appeared and sternly shouted, "Put down the people in your hands!"
Fan Long and Zheng Zhe glanced at each other, not feeling a demon heart within Liu Tao. Liu Tao merely looked like an ordinary person. Fan Long grinned, "Another one delivered right to us."
Carrying Liu Yu, he rushed up to Liu Tao and delivered a hand chop towards his neck. Previously, he accidentally exerted too much force and nearly killed Zhang Yang by bruising his neck badly.
This time, when chopping Liu Tao, he subconsciously held back a little.
Seeing him bring a hostage right to him, Liu Tao was overjoyed. As he saw the chop aimed at his neck, disdain flickered in his eyes. He ignored the hand chop and directly broke Fan Long's arm, grabbing Liu Yu away.
The pain of the broken arm was unfelt by Fan Long, but what shocked him was that his hand chop, upon hitting, felt like chopping onto solid special rubber and didn't move at all, with not a change in Liu Tao's expression.
After checking once, finding that Liu Yu was just knocked out, Liu Tao breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Liu Yu's reddened neck, a surge of anger boiled up inside him as he glared maliciously at Fan Long.
"You dare lay a hand on my sister!"
With a fierce kick to Fan Long's stomach, Fan Long's body was kicked into a small 45-degree angle. His lower abdomen was flattened, and even the demon heart in his chest cavity almost got squeezed out of his throat.
This was with Liu Tao not using full force. Otherwise, he could have directly exploded Fan Long's body with one kick.
At a critical moment, having received a transmission of Spiritual Power from Lu Yu, Liu Tao restrained some of his strength; otherwise, that kick would have severed Fan Long in two.
Zheng Zhe's face twisted with extreme shock, "How can this be… How can a human be this strong!"
The moment they swallowed the demon heart, their consciousness was already tainted by it. Subconsciously, they considered themselves as a new species, not as humans.
"Hehe~ traitors to the demons, there's still much you don't know!" Liu Tao sneered, holding Liu Yu with one arm.
He pulled out a marble from his pocket, which he had used to pass the time the day before, and flicked it with his fingers. Spiritual Power infused into the glass marble, striking Zheng Zhe's body at high speed, creating a large hole with blood and flesh flying.
A cheap marble, in Liu Tao's hand, wielded power comparable to a bullet.
Despite being at the pinnacle of the Qi Cultivation realm, Liu Tao's strength was much weaker than Lu Yu and Zhou Dazhi's, but dealing with these so-called demon hunters was still exceptionally easy.
