Chapter 1005

The Demon Soldier Village has shrunk in size.

This shocking news came from within and quickly spread throughout the world, even involving the Lord of Demon Soldiers.

Anyone familiar with demonic weapons knows that Supreme Demonic Weapon is a battle royale game, a process of breeding, killing, and annexing, with the ultimate contest for the strongest demonic weapon.

This demonic weapon's greatest achievement is slaying the Enchantress.

Yes, this is the version that was widely circulated before, until recently when news came from the Demon Soldier Village.

Slaying the Enchantress is the ultimate mission of a demon soldier's birth, concealing a secret to advancement.

A master-level demon weapon lord who wields a supreme demon weapon to slay the Enchantress can be promoted to Martial Saint for this merit.

real or fake?

The first reaction of the Heart Demon Ring was doubt: how many years has it been since a Martial Saint has appeared in this world?

Countless brilliant martial arts geniuses have met their tragic ends, generation after generation, forever trapped at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Sect.

The most representative examples are Zhenbei Ge and Tiannan Shenjian. These two are the most outstanding figures among the countless brilliant and talented people in the fifty states. However, despite being famous for many years, they have never seen the dawn of becoming a martial saint.

What are the status of these two in the martial arts world?

Before meeting them, arrogant people might assume they are just old-fashioned fools who rely on their age and status. But upon meeting them, they are all surprised and feel a sense of awe and inferiority.

If becoming a Martial Saint is so difficult, why is it that a Supreme Demonic Weapon can achieve it simply by slaying a single demon?

Well, considering that the Enchantress wreaked havoc on several eras, causing the Martial Saint of All Things to lose his honor in his later years, and even requiring several generations of Martial Saints to join forces to suppress her, it was only then that the Enchantress Clan was driven into darkness.

It seems that by completely eliminating the Enchantress and eradicating the existence of all Enchantresses, this great merit would justify his promotion to Martial Saint.

Even Zhou You himself was alarmed. The way the circle was shrinking was too shocking. Not only would the inside of the demonic soldiers be shaken, but the outside world would also be shaken.

Hmm, what is the connection between this situation and the changes in southern Xinjiang?

The troubles in the southern border are caused by demons, while the troubles in the Demon Soldier Township are caused by black demons. Although demons and monsters are listed together and are referred to as one, the two are clearly distinct. Even when they do merge, they usually go their own way and do not interfere with each other.

The story originates from a demonic slave who operated in the southeastern region.

The Lord of Demonic Weapons is scattered throughout the world. He hides his identity, kills to increase his power, and develops demonic weapon slaves to confuse people and share the firepower. Therefore, there are traces of people wielding demonic weapons all over the fifty states of the world.

In the southeastern states, a great war between demons and humans has resulted in brutal slaughter. Since killing humans and demons are both forms of killing, demon soldiers are mixed in with them, and they are not afraid of being exposed no matter how beautiful or outrageous their actions are.

Many demon soldiers conceal their identities, blending into the Hundred Sects Alliance, making them difficult to distinguish from other factions.

The problem lies with the monster mine.

After the appearance of the Demon Transformation Cauldron, Demon Essence and Demon Ore became the two largest local specialties. Many people obtained these two items to refine medicine and weapons. The former was entrusted to pharmacists for processing, while the latter was integrated into divine weapons to enhance them.

A demonic weapon slave had a sudden inspiration to integrate demonic ore into a demonic weapon, and the resulting feedback was much stronger than that of ordinary divine weapons.

If demonic ore is an enhancement for ordinary divine weapons, then for demonic weapons it is a stimulant, a complete tonic.

The demon soldier unusually displayed a hunger, which in turn fueled his unprecedentedly strong increase in power, urging him to seize more demon mines.

Later, this demon soldier slave participated in the great war, trying every means to plunder demon mines. He even exposed his identity to ambush his companions and steal a large amount of demon mines for the remains of a great demon.

Zhou You had heard of this case in Li Huo Zhou, but by the time he paid attention again, the demonic soldier slave had already changed his appearance, achieved a class leap, turned against his master, and seized the identity of the demonic soldier master.

Indeed, this new master of the 'Blood Demon Thorn' used the demon mines he plundered to enhance his demon weapons to their limits, successfully killing the Demon Weapon Master and, according to the laws of the Demon Weapon Village, taking over the position of Demon Weapon Master. A truly inspiring feat, yet it triggered widespread panic within the demon weapon community.

The demon mine is so powerful that it allowed a mere demonic soldier to successfully kill its master. This is outrageous!

The demonic slaves saw hope and all wanted to replicate the miracle, while the demonic lords were all in danger, fearing that they would follow in the footsteps of the previous Blood Demon Thorn.

Therefore, all the demon soldiers and their slaves turned their attention to the south.

The demons in the southeastern states were decimated, and the remaining ones fled to the southern border, converging in the western region where tiger corpses roamed.

Two top-tier demons: one is the renowned Japanese demon strategist, and the other is a tiger corpse fused with the demon king's body. Both are giant demons of the Heavenly Sect level. The demon ore refined from them... wow...

At that time, slaying the Enchantress and being promoted to Demon Soldier Martial Saint will not be a dream.

Some estimate that if these two elements could be integrated into a demonic weapon, it would be enough to instantly upgrade it to a supreme demonic weapon.

With the Demon Ring Vest stationed in the capital, he could directly sense the undercurrents surging. Many demon soldiers and slaves were getting restless and were infiltrating the southern border both openly and secretly. Some soldiers and slaves who had been hiding for many years were even exposed as a result.

Yes, this is a conclusion he reached intentionally but unintentionally.

In fact, this duel in southern Xinjiang attracted countless forces from all directions.

The clash between Tiger Corpse and Lord Shen at this level of strength is second only to the clash between Northern Spear and Southern Sword, an unprecedented spectacle that any martial artist would only witness once in their lifetime.

The hidden schemes of the demon race have also attracted much attention.

The daily influx of people to the Southern Frontier is enormous, and with such a mixed bag of people, the demon soldiers, mixed in with them, barely make a ripple.

Duke Chongyang sent eight cauldrons, entrusting Xiaoyaozi to transform them into demon-transforming cauldrons, and specifying that they be tempered with demons in the southern border region.

Most of the eight henchmen arrived, their duty being to escort the bronze vessel.

At the Five Elders Manor, Jin Lao, entrusted by Consort Mei, arrived with her personal maid Wu'er and three cauldrons.

The other confidants of the other gentlemen successively sent people to infiltrate, their focus being on the great gentleman.

The battle for succession among the gentlemen involved interactions between the Three Gentlemen, the Five Gentlemen, and the Eight Gentlemen, but they all shared a common enemy: the Great Gentleman.

The other gentlemen are still scheming and vying for the honor of being granted a fiefdom in the capital, hoping to obtain a fiefdom to develop their own power.

The battle in southern Xinjiang was directly related to the future of the great gentleman.

The great gentleman's brothers were a world apart from him in terms of strength; even stacked together, they wouldn't be as tall as him.

Moreover, the Great Gentleman has several states in the southeast as his fiefdom, and countless talented people and soldiers under his command, making him a true king of the southeast.

Therefore, the younger brothers are very concerned about this matter.

More often, it was the powerful families who sent people, and this battle was also related to the power dynamics of these families in the court.

After Lord Shen, no aristocratic families have yet seen a suitable successor; everyone who has done so is somewhat lacking.

Among these high-ranking members of aristocratic families and powerful ministers, who knows how many others harbored ulterior motives, such as members of the Buddhist sect, the Golden Immortal Dao, or even the Demon Slayer? Their minds were more intricate and complex than the threads of a cloth being woven.
Lord Shen is the head of the hereditary marquises. If anything were to happen to him, the future would be uncertain.

Although every generation produces talented individuals, truly exceptional heroes, one in a million, are not always present.
