However, what happened next was beyond Ye Tianfan's expectations, yet it was within reason.
Ye Tianfan saw that the Fire Swords exposed to the Evil Qi were corroding at a speed visible to the naked eye.
If this continued, within two minutes, the demon would be able to break free from these Fire Swords.
Seeing this, Ye Tianfan quickly added a few more Fire Swords and then hurriedly began investigating the room.
Every two minutes, Ye Tianfan would add so more Fire Swords to the demon.
After reinforcing three more tis, Ye Tianfan left the room because the investigation showed no other anomalies in the room.
After tightly closing the door and sensing no movent inside, Ye Tianfan walked towards the next room.
As he approached the next room, Ye Tianfan checked the Spiritual Power within himself and found that two-tenths was already consud.
This ant, at this rate, Ye Tianfan would need to go out to restore his Spiritual Power long before even exploring half the area, perhaps after just three or five rooms.
However, Ye Tianfan had no other options and thought to himself that he couldn't always encounter demons; surely many rooms wouldn't have them.
Then Ye Tianfan stood in place, his lips twitching slightly.
Right, if there are no demons in the rooms, does that an there can't be any on the streets?
Indeed, Ye Tianfan stood there because he saw a demon staggering along right in front of him.
Ye Tianfan sensed that its strength was around the first level of Qian Yuan, not too high.
But the demon hadn't noticed Ye Tianfan yet because Ye Tianfan walked very quietly.
Ye Tianfan considered capturing the demon into the second room; otherwise, it would roam the streets, and he'd encounter it again upon leaving the second room for the third, costing him more Spiritual Power.
Ye Tianfan sensed the second room and found no demons inside, so he planned to enter it, finish his investigation, and then lure the demon in.
But just as Ye Tianfan was about to enter the second room, he felt a sudden and severe headache that ca and went quickly; before Ye Tianfan could react, the pain vanished.
Furthermore, after the pain, Ye Tianfan felt a faint trace of Evil Qi in his mind, which soon dissipated.
Ye Tianfan beca alert, realizing he had overlooked the most important thing: not to use Divine Sense in a place full of Evil Qi as it can corrode Divine Sense too.
Fortunately, Ye Tianfan didn't keep his Divine Sense exposed continuously; he used and retracted it promptly, so though it was slightly eroded, it had recovered.
This was why Ye Tianfan had a sudden headache and felt a bit of Evil Qi in his mind.
After recovering, Ye Tianfan quickly ran into the second room because he saw the previous demon about to turn around; if he hadn't entered the second room but stayed outside, the demon would imdiately rush over and drain a lot of his Spiritual Power.
Ye Tianfan searched the room carefully but still found nothing, though he didn't expect imdiate results, so he decided to head to the third room.
But first, it was better to lure the demon into this room.
Ye Tianfan opened the door and found a small stone in the room, then flicked it towards the demon.
The stone hit the demon, who quickly reacted, turned around, saw Ye Tianfan, and rushed over without a word.
As the demon charged, Ye Tianfan sidestepped quickly, and while the demon had not turned around yet, he darted out of the room and swiftly turned to close the door.
After that, Ye Tianfan listened for any noise inside, heard nothing, and continued toward the third room.
Once again, the third room contained demons, two of them, a pair of demon couples, yet Ye Tianfan still didn't find any clues inside.
After leaving the third room, Ye Tianfan checked his remaining Spiritual Power, finding less than half left and dropping rapidly.
Ye Tianfan calculated how much longer he could hold out; it had gone from sustaining through the afternoon to barely making it past noon, and that was just resisting the Evil Qi. If more demons were encountered in further rooms, he'd manage only two more before his Spiritual Power fell below a safe level.
If he didn't leave after dropping below a safe level, Ye Tianfan might as well turn into a demon right there.
In fact, others had already started going back.
Just now, Ye Tianfan saw several people flying beyond Copper Gong Town on Flying Magical Treasures.
Against demons, they may match, but demons inevitably suffer more in such encounters.
Though actually, it is the cultivators who bear the brunt, as demons are nearly unbeatable here.
Ye Tianfan started towards the fourth room, but then saw a signal flare shot nearby, a blue one.
A blue flare ant minor trouble, not major, yet Ye Tianfan flew over on his Flying Sword since it was close.
Ye Tianfan had just reached the signal flare's area when he saw the person who launched it, now pursued by three demons, running in all directions. When he saw Ye Tianfan approach, he called out, "Hey, senior brother, save quickly! I didn't expect three demons to appear at once in that place and although individually they aren't stronger than , together they're much stronger, and it's just tears to talk about!"
Seeing this, Ye Tianfan imdiately unleashed the previously released Fire Swords, controlling them to pierce fiercely into the three demons.
The demons' bodies, with great montum, were blasted several steps back and then pinned to the ground by the Fire Swords piercing through them.
This left the demons unable to move for a bit, but from Ye Tianfan's estimates and what he could see, they would break free in less than a minute.
Knowing this, Ye Tianfan smiled at the person who sent the signal flare and then said.
