Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

”Indeed, the matter concerning Lin Ye is indeed temporarily unrelated to us, but it does not mean... it’s over. Don’t forget, we have Diao Deyi in our hands, and beneath us, there are still many low-level spies placed on the demon’s side, they... might also betray humanity like Lin Sheng!”

The Master of Juanan Hall [Shu Shangming] sighed at this moment.

”It’s rare to see, in the past, although there were humans who took refuge with demons, it was basically one-sided. The demons didn’t have a single shred of trust for the humans who sought refuge, nor did they cooperate at all; it was simply using them or even treating them as food.”

”But this time... Lin Sheng, and possibly the traitor Lin Ye, it’s obvious something is different. Why would people of such status and power be willing to yield to demons? Even to the point where demons are willing to follow Lin Sheng’s orders! This has never happened before.”

”Could it be that demons have mastered some powerful means to control humans? Or have they suddenly become open to accepting humans?”

Upon hearing this, several Hall Masters slightly shook their heads.

Demons are united, but they are also very xenophobic.

If you are not of our kind, your heart must be eradicated.

This phrase is also prevalent among demons.

But this time, demons listening to humans, humans taking refuge with demons, seems like a mutual aid attempt, which is astonishing.

”If this phenomenon continues to happen...”

An Menyi didn’t finish the sentence, but the imagination left for several Hall Masters caused their hearts to sink.

There are human demon-worshipers, and there are those who, with nowhere else to go and twisted personalities, purely because demons do not accept humans or trust them. That’s why these people haven’t had opportunities or enough ability to betray their kind.

But if demons changed their strategy, with a soft approach, continuously absorbing humans, even willing to let humans take higher positions within the demon organization...

They dared not imagine what Tianyuan Town would become, how many high-level Martial Artists, and even top-level organization members might be tempted to join the demons.

However... humans and demons are age-old enemies, humans being demon’s food. Can there really be a harmonious coexistence between demons and humans?

”The demon forces invading Tianyuan Town this time aren’t simple.”

”Humph! What if there are traitors? In Tianyuan Town, who doesn’t have a few relatives or friends killed by demons? The bone-deep hatred, the generations-long hatred, how could it allow coexistence with demons? They must be wishing to kill them quickly!”

”Indeed, the idea of humans and demons coexisting is unfathomable anywhere. If demons elsewhere knew such a demon force existed, they’d likely face antagonism from other demons, leading to a great internal purge among them, truly making them enemies of the world!”

Despite this, An Menyi still had worries deep down.

Thankfully, demon and human coexistence, though seemingly beautiful and dreamy, is very unrealistic.

When one day external threats vanish and an era of prosperity arrives, what happens when demons get hungry again? Mind you, for demons to get stronger, human flesh is extremely nourishing.

With food around them, would demons driven by primal desires really hold back?

This seemingly beautiful coexistence is actually as fragile as paper, ready to shatter at any moment.

Only by eradicating demons and spirits completely, purging the whole world, leaving only one race, can humanity achieve true and eternal peace!

But such matters have little to do with us, humble Hall Masters of the Foolish Underworld.

Even if they had fantasies like this in their youth, after enduring life’s hardships, the current Hall Masters only have thoughts of safeguarding this territory of the Foolish Underworld.

”For now... keep an eye on this kind of information.”

After a pause, An Menyi switched to a lighter topic: ”Speaking of, the fifth son of the Li Family has been quite active lately.”

The Master of Juanan Hall [Shu Shangming] immediately chimed in: ”I’ve noticed too. During the days we weren’t active, that so-called peerless genius Li Shidao, who stands shoulder to shoulder with Li Shiquan, attacked several medium and small factions consecutively, even massacring some groups, and aggressively incorporated parts of the forces through iron-blooded means.”

”And recently, he had a meeting again with the Master of Truth Spirit Martial Arts Hall from the Three major martial arts schools. It seems he’s trying to leverage this battle power in the Li Family’s trials, preparing for an ultimate showdown with Li Shiquan.”

Hearing this, the other Hall Masters frowned slightly.

”I don’t think highly of him.”

”Neither do I. His opponent is Li Shiquan! The old patriarch of the Li Family is an old monster; Li Shiquan is a young monster, both are extraordinary.”

”Li Shidao picked the wrong opponent,” the Dark Hall Master added.

Then, the Hall Masters exchanged information, briefly analyzed recent intel, and then each dispersed.

And this part of the information will be conveyed to Ming Tianqi, who left early when they meet next time, so he would also be informed about the situation—although the Hall Masters have their own ideas, their stance is absolutely unified.

True Scripture Pavilion.

Fang Yu, just out from [True Scripture Pavilion], was excited looking at the cultivation technique in his hand and the three medicine pills.

After leaving the Welcoming Hall, he first went to [True Pill Pavilion] to collect the medicine pills, then to [True Scripture Pavilion] to select a cultivation technique.

And now, both are in hand.

Fang Yu took out the items.

In the palm of his left hand lay three rose-colored crimson medicine pills that one might mistake for poison if unaware.

These three pills are called [Concealing Pill].

According to the guard, [Concealing Pill] is hard to come by for even a thousand gold, practically unavailable, and very effective for Martial Artists below the Wood Realm, considered an invaluable tonic.

Hearing this, Fang Yu almost wanted to sell one of the [Concealing Pills] right away.

But after some thought, he suppressed that idea.

First, it would be too conspicuous to sell.

Second, he wasn’t that lacking in money at the moment.

Having become the Acting Captain, his salary skyrocketed, and the financial pressure wasn’t that significant now.

Fang Yu thought, once this month’s salary arrives, plus some miscellaneous gains, and previous savings, he should have enough to buy a house in reality.

However, after having enough money, Fang Yu started considering factors like location and house size, so he plans to save a little more for a one-time purchase.

Besides, life is not inconvenient now, earning money just by being in the game, no need to rush.

He picked up the first [Concealing Pill] and swallowed it.

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for taking [Concealing Pill], Spirit +10.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for taking [Concealing Pill], gained 5000 experience points.]

[System Prompt: Experience points exceed 100, total converted to 50 attribute points.]

[System Prompt: [Demonization] progress reduced by 10%.]

Seeing the system prompt, Fang Yu was overjoyed.

One [Concealing Pill] can yield 50 attribute points.

Doesn’t 3 pills mean 150 points??

Moreover, it also boosts the Spirit attribute, such an effect is impressive, comparable to slaying a Great Demon!

Without hesitation, Fang Yu took another pill.

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for taking [Concealing Pill], Spirit +5.]

[System Prompt: Congratulations to the player for taking [Concealing Pill], gained 2500 experience points.]

[System Prompt: Experience points exceed 100, total converted to 25 attribute points.]

[System Prompt: [Demonization] progress reduced by 5%.]

Fang Yu:...

The effect... halved??

The second pill’s at half price, huh??

Fang Yu was stunned; this seemed a bit of a loss.

Could it be what they call tolerance to medicine?

No doubt, if he takes the third [Concealing Pill], the effect would still diminish.

After thinking for a while, Fang Yu stored away the last [Concealing Pill].

Turn back to see if Brother Qing has any interest in trying one.

Although the guard did mention it’s beneficial for human Martial Artists, it’s uncertain if demons would gain any benefit from it.

If things don’t work out, give it to Ding Hui; she’s helped me a lot, it’s only fair to give her something good in return, that’s proper etiquette.

If nothing else works, exchange it for resources or money, certainly better than consuming it myself.

Fang Yu looked at the panel.

Including those few people killed during the Foolish Underworld blockade in the prison, now the attribute points have cumulated to 85, with a slight increase in life.

[Life: 39342/39342.]

[Attribute Points: 85.]

Then... shall we add some points?

Fang Yu glanced at the cultivation technique he just selected.
