Ye Xiao quietly hid inside the cave, while refining and cultivating, he used the Power of consciousness to investigate the situation around him, and secretly thought about his plan. If he wanted the rewards this time, it had not been announced yet. However, even if there were Euphorbia praeparata Thunb s, he would probably need to be ranked extremely high in order to obtain them. With Ye Xiao's current strength, it was definitely impossible for him to achieve the desired result. Forget about the top ten or even the top three, even the top hundred did not have much hope of achieving the desired result. Therefore, upgrading the Fighting power was a top priority.

The ranking rules given by the Xuan Xin Sect to all those who participated in the trial were basically exactly the same as the one given by the Fire Emperor to Ye Xiao previously. The first stage of the ranking for the second stage of the trial, was based on the number of demon spirit that were hunted. According to the Xuan Xin Sect, the demon spirit s were divided into five ranks, from the bottom to the top. One of the five ranks, the spirit seed s was worth a point, and the other, was worth ten thousand points. However, Level 5 demon spirit s were almost equivalent to human trainer s. Therefore, with the strength of this group of Youth disciples, if they were to meet them, the chances of them being killed would instead be higher.

And at the end of the training, the final score would be used to rank the second stage. The top thousand disciples of the second stage would enter the third stage, and although the remaining disciples would have a chance to challenge them, it would be extremely difficult to win against the genius of the Youth s who were as numerous as the clouds. Therefore, it could be said that basically, the top thousand disciples of the second stage wouldn't have too many changes.

As a result, not only did Ye Xiao need to live through the ten months of the second stage, he also needed to obtain enough points to enter the top thousand rankings. Moreover, he still needed to improve his Fighting power to the point where it could match up to the top Youth s.

It could be said that these three points were incomparably difficult. Fortunately, in the Secret Realm, although it was dangerous, there were still many opportunities. This allowed Ye Xiao to have a slight chance of success.

Ye Xiao clenched his teeth, a look of determination and unyielding determination appearing in his eyes. Since he had already reached this point, no matter how difficult it was, he had to persevere, and not only must he persevere, he also had to obtain an impossible success from this thread of opportunity.

As the blood-red sun gradually went down, the sky turned eerily black. It was unknown where it came from within the black color, but at an unknown time, an extremely melodious and short sound gradually rang out.

A dark red thread of energy suddenly appeared in Ye Xiao's mind. This dark red thread was faintly discernable and floated out from various places. Within the mountain rock, the desert, and even the endless void. In just a moment, this dark red thread of energy had nearly filled the entire world.

Suddenly, when this dark red energy was drifting aimlessly, for some unknown reason, it suddenly twisted and coiled around the dark red threads." Suddenly, when this dark red energy was floating aimlessly, for some unknown reason, it suddenly twisted and coiled around the dark red threads.

On top of the Monster, there was no head. It was only slowly forming into a strange red bead that emitted a faint dark red light. On this dark red bead, there was a shallow line slowly floating on the bead.

Ye Xiao thought in his heart: This should be the demon spirit that I mentioned. Could it be that the strange red pearl on top is the spirit seed?

Ye Xiao sized up the demon spirit that had appeared in his consciousness strangely. According to the rumors, the strong demon spirit was actually intelligent. However, because Ye Xiao had a consciousness, he could clearly see that the process of forming this demon spirit was only made up of a strange energy.

Where did this strange energy come from? And why would this energy fuse together, or perhaps it was due to this effect that caused them to fuse with the city demon spirit's form? Moreover, even the strangest energy was only energy. How could there be a situation where one possessed consciousness? A series of questions surfaced in Ye Xiao's mind, but at the moment, no one was explaining anything to Ye Xiao.

While Ye Xiao was stunned, nearly a hundred demon spirit appeared within the range of his consciousness. Every single demon spirit floated aimlessly in the air, slowly drifting about. When more and more demon spirit appeared, it was inevitable that some of them would collide. The demon spirit that collided with each other did not split apart. A strange howl exploded out from within the dark red colored body of the demon spirit, and then, the two demon spirit began to twine around each other as if they were enemies on the border of life and death.

The dark red threads on the demon spirit's body were extended one by one as they coiled and roared at the other. After a short period of time, the threads of the two demon spirit fused together and it was unknown who won and who lost. In short, one of them had already lost miserably in this battle of survival. The remaining demon spirit slowly devoured the threads of the scattered demon spirit, and then fused into its own body. In the end, it also swallowed the slightly damaged spirit seed.

After swallowing it, the body of the surviving demon spirit grew a bit bigger, and even the dark spirit seed had grown a size. Furthermore, the strange patterns on the spirit seed had also turned a little darker.

Ye Xiao was secretly surprised, this was probably how these demon spirit grew and grew, maybe after devouring enough demon spirit of the same level, this demon spirit would be able to gradually level up to a higher level.

Following the increase in the number of demon spirit, within Ye Xiao's field of consciousness, it seemed as if a chaotic battle had occurred. The battle could not be seen as intense, but it was extremely realistic. Countless demon spirit were defeated and devoured by their own kind, and there were more and more big sized demon spirit.

Ye Xiao was suddenly worried. Although it seemed like it was difficult for the demon spirit to level up, at least he saw a big sized demon spirit devouring 3 to 4 small demon spirit but it still did not level up. However, in this world, there were obviously a lot of demon spirit and it was unknown how many there were. If it were to continue devouring like this, extremely tyrannical demon spirit would definitely appear. If that was the case, then how could the Youth's trial-takers in this world still survive?

Gradually, the number of demon spirit within the range of Ye Xiao's divine sense started to decrease. From hundreds, to only ten, and then to only three. And these three demon spirit had obviously grown a lot bigger, from half the size of a human body to more than twice the size of a human body. Furthermore, these demon spirit were different from the little demon spirit from before. It was obvious that they could already sense the existence of their own kind. The thick dark-red threads slowly touched each other's bodies, as if testing.

Moments later, a bitter free-for-all broke out …
