Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

On the battlefield, the remaining demons wailed and fled in all directions, their army in complete disarray.

Finally, the death of a great demon at the Marquis level was like the announcement of the god of death, and the battlefield fell silent in an instant.

Those demons who resisted stubbornly had already been completely defeated and no longer had any power to fight back.

The Black Mountain Giant controlled by Jiang Yue stood majestically in the center of the battlefield, emitting a suffocating and powerful pressure all over his body.

That mountain-like body was like an insurmountable barrier, completely suppressing the last trace of demonic energy on the battlefield.

The support troops poured into the battlefield like a tide, and the hurried footsteps seemed a little panicked for a moment.

However, when they witnessed the enemy's total collapse, their morale instantly reached its peak and thunderous cheers resounded through the sky.

"God bless our Great Zhou, we won this battle! Congratulations to Yunzhou!"

Someone shouted loudly, which immediately excited everyone in the remnant army.

"Congratulations to Yunzhou!"

The result of this battle is obviously enough to inspire everyone, no matter how terrifying the power of the Beast God Cult is. At least, it gives people a glimmer of hope!
"Congratulations to Inspector Jiang!"

Someone shouted again, and this time, all the remaining soldiers shouted together.

"Congratulations to Inspector Jiang!"

"Inspector Jiang is unrivaled in combat power and should be credited with the greatest achievement in this battle!"

"If Yunzhou didn't have this person, I'm afraid this time it would really be..."

For a moment, the morale of the army was greatly boosted!
The commanders quickly stabilized their position and directed their troops to clean up the battlefield in an orderly manner.

Searching for remaining demons, treating injured comrades, and collecting scattered spoils, everything was proceeding tensely and efficiently.

The armor of the demon soldiers, the treasures shining with strange light, and even the broken corpses of the demons have all become medals of victory in the eyes of the soldiers.

The chaos on the battlefield gradually subsided, replaced by an orderly cleanup scene, announcing the glorious victory of this battle.

Jiang Yue still stood on the broad shoulders of the Black Mountain giant, his deep eyes calmly scanning the devastated battlefield.

The cleaning scene before him was like insignificant dust in his eyes. The outcome of the battle had long been decided, and now it was just a routine finishing work.

There was no trace of ease or slackness after the victory on his handsome brows. Instead, he examined everything around him more and more calmly, as if he had stayed out of it from the beginning to the end, leading the battle with an absolutely rational attitude.

"Black Mountain, stay where you are." Jiang Yue gave the order in a steady tone. Although his voice was light, it carried unquestionable power.

The Black Mountain Giant slowly lowered his huge hand without any pause. His heavy footsteps shook the earth, and finally it became as still as a mountain.

The huge body stands tall, like an ancient god guarding a battlefield, emitting a heart-pounding sense of oppression.

Jiang Yue's order seemed simple, but it actually contained deep thought.

If a creature of the Black Mountain Giant were to move around at will on the battlefield, it would probably cause the earth's veins to vibrate, and might even cause unpredictable disasters.

"Remember, stay where you are and don't move rashly." Jiang Yue reminded him again in a deep voice. After confirming the condition of the Black Mountain Giant, he leaped and landed lightly from the giant's shoulder.

His figure drew a neat arc in the air and landed steadily. Then, with a thought, he summoned a golden eagle to patrol the sky.

The patrolling eagle let out a clear cry and spread its golden wings that covered the sky.

Jiang Yue leaped onto the eagle's back nimbly, his movements smooth and flowing without a trace of hesitation.

The Sky-patrolling Eagle flapped its wings suddenly, stirring up a violent gale that carried Jiang Yue through layers of clouds and mist and soared straight into the sky.

The strong wind was howling, making Jiang Yue's robe rustle. He stood proudly on the eagle's back with his hands behind his back. His sharp eyes penetrated the clouds and overlooked the gradually shrinking battlefield below.

Looking at the battlefield that had been completely cleared, his tense nerves did not relax at all, and his mind was rapidly thinking about the next situation.

Although the main demon king has been killed, the remnants of the demon clan hiding in the dark cannot be underestimated and must be eliminated as soon as possible to prevent future troubles.

However, that is not a problem that can be solved overnight. If it stays hidden, it will be difficult to find it for a while.

What's more, although these big monsters are the main force behind the Beast God Cult's rebellion, the high-level human leaders have not yet appeared, and it is obvious that there are still many unfinished business.

The patrolling eagle spread its wings and soared into the sky at a speed as fast as lightning, leaving golden streaks in the sky, tearing through the air and emitting sharp whistles.

In just a few breaths, Jiang Yue had already left the noisy battlefield and was rushing towards the direction where Xu Chong was in the distance.

Looking down from the sky, the rolling mountains are like a winding dragon, dotted with lush vegetation, forming a magnificent picture of mountains and rivers.

As the Skyhawk flew closer, the scenery on the ground became clearer.

On the top of the solitary peak, Xu Chong's figure still stood lonely. His thin back looked particularly desolate in the biting mountain wind, yet revealed a sense of tenacity and perseverance.

That figure was deeply imprinted in Jiang Yue's mind. The familiar outline, yet it also revealed a hint of indescribable strangeness.

The Sky-patrolling Eagle slowly lowered its altitude and finally landed smoothly in front of Xu Chong.

Jiang Yue jumped off the eagle's back lightly, touched the ground with his toes, and landed silently with his body as straight as a pine tree.

Xu Chong raised his head and stared at Jiang Yue in front of him with complicated eyes. His eyes were slightly red and his bloodshot eyes were filled with unspeakable emotions.

Seeing Jiang Yue return safely, Xu Chong's long-accumulated worries and concerns poured out like a flood. He was overwhelmed with emotions and was choked with sobs for a moment.

"You... are finally back?" Xu Chong asked in a low and slow voice with a hoarse voice and a barely perceptible tremor.

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, they seemed to be choked in his throat and stopped abruptly. All the words he wanted to say finally turned into a question filled with complex emotions.

He really wanted to ask about the experience in the Immortal God Ruins, or why Jiang Yue was able to drive this black mountain here, but when the words came to his lips, he was unable to open his mouth.

Jiang Yue was silent for a moment, staring at Xu Chong with deep eyes. There was not much expression on his angular face. He just nodded slightly and called out in a calm and solemn tone: "Master."

The master and the apprentice stared at each other quietly, their eyes meeting each other, conveying complex emotions that did not require words. Jiang Yue was very clear in his mind that the friendship between him and Xu Chong had long surpassed the ordinary master-apprentice relationship.

What Xu Chong gave him was not only meticulous instruction in cultivation, but also meticulous care and unreserved support.

After Qingxian became his disciple, the two actually did not spend much time together.

After all, Jiang Yue had only been on the path of cultivation for a short time, and he had been traveling everywhere since he got the official seal, so they had not met often.

But once upon a time, he had placed all his hopes and strength on Xu Chong like a drowning man grabbing a piece of driftwood, and was able to stagger forward only with the protection of his master.

And now, he has finally grown to the point where he can stand on his own, possessing a powerful strength enough to shake the heavens and the earth. He can stand in front of Xu Chong without fear, stand shoulder to shoulder with him, and protect this land together.

After a brief silence, Jiang Yue broke the silence, with a barely perceptible worry in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Master, your Qi and blood... have been exhausted."

He keenly noticed that Xu Chong's breath was disordered, his vitality was swaying like a candle in the wind, and the deficiency of Qi and blood had reached an extremely dangerous situation.

After all, according to the defending general, Xu Chong had been fighting for a hundred days!

Even though Xu Chong's cultivation was unfathomable, after experiencing such a brutal battle and long-term overload fighting, his energy and blood had already been exhausted, and his body had been stretched to its limits.

Even a man of iron would probably be ground into slag.

Hearing this, Xu Chong just smiled in relief, as if he had already anticipated his physical condition. He shook his head and said with a little relief: "I'm fine, but you... I didn't expect you to have grown to such an amazing level. It really surprised me and made me very happy."

His tone contained a hint of pride and satisfaction that came from the bottom of his heart, but it also concealed a subtle hint of helplessness and loneliness.

Time flies, and the once young boy has long since transformed into a strong man, but I am now old and unable to do so.

Jiang Yue did not respond. He just silently took out several rare medicinal herbs that were glowing with spiritual light from his storage bag and handed them to Xu Chong. He said in an unquestionable tone, "Master, take these spiritual herbs quickly and restore your energy and blood as soon as possible."

These herbs were all picked by Jiang Yue from the Immortal God Ruins. They contain tremendous life essence and have extremely significant medicinal effects, enough to quickly replenish physical strength and restore qi and blood in a short period of time.

Xu Chong was slightly startled, and looked at Jiang Yue with complicated eyes. In the end, he silently took the herbs, and an indescribable warmth surged in his heart.

Although deep down he was unwilling to rely too much on Jiang Yue, at this moment, facing his weak body, he had no reason to refuse.

After all, his physical condition was indeed on the verge of collapse. If he didn't replenish his qi and blood in time, he might not even be able to stand.

Jiang Yue's eyes softened and he said no more. He just watched Xu Chong swallow the elixir quietly.

The medicinal power melted as soon as it entered his mouth, transforming into a warm current that instantly flowed through Xu Chong's limbs and bones, nourishing his dry meridians. His originally pale complexion gradually regained a hint of redness, and his disordered breath began to stabilize.

"These medicines..." Xu Chong felt the strength in his body recovering rapidly. He was about to ask, but he stopped himself and finally hid his gratitude deep in his heart.

He didn't say anything more, because he understood that Jiang Yue in front of him was no longer the young boy who needed his protection.

At this moment, Jiang Yue is not only his apprentice, but also the person he is most proud of and the one he can trust the most.

Xu Chong's eyes were hot, and his moist eyes were filled with tears of excitement and relief. He had not expected that his disciple, who once needed his careful care, had now grown to the point where he could protect him.

How long has it been?

It has only been half a year since Jiang Yue set out!

This growth rate is amazing!
Standing in front of Xu Chong, Jiang Yue still maintained a calm and steady demeanor, his deep gaze as firm and restrained as an eternal rock.

He knew in his heart that from the moment he embarked on the path of cultivation, he was destined to take a path that was completely different from the secular world.

Every increase in strength seemed to mean that the distance between him and this world was getting farther and farther.

However, when he saw Xu Chong again at this moment and felt the satisfaction and pride in his master's eyes, an unprecedented warmth and strength surged in his heart, making him no longer feel lonely, but full of motivation to move forward.

Xu Chong took a deep breath and tried his best to calm his excited heart. He looked at the disciple in front of him who had already surpassed him, with a complex and gratified light flashing in his eyes.

In any case, Jiang Yue's achievements have far surpassed his, and as a master, what he can do is no longer to give more guidance and teachings, but to protect him silently and feel sincerely proud of his growth.

"You did a great job, Jiang Yue." Xu Chong said softly, his eyes filled with tears that could no longer be held back. Two lines of tears burst out and slowly slid down his weather-beaten face.

Hearing this, Jiang Yue lowered his eyelids slightly to hide the surging emotions in his eyes. He did not respond, but just stood there quietly, like a silent mountain, with a firm and persistent gaze, looking into the endless sky in the distance.

"Finally... I made it!"

Jiang Yue felt an indescribable excitement in his heart.

In the chest, the boiling hot blood seemed to break free from the shackles and rush out.

Looking up, the sky of Yunzhou is still majestic.

The land that he longed for had not yet fallen under the iron hoof of the demons.

There is still time for everything!
He took a deep breath and forced down the surging emotions in his chest. Deep in Jiang Yue's eyes, an even hotter light burned.

In this fierce battle, the accumulation of tens of thousands of years, the blood and flesh essence of countless monsters, and the mountains of rare materials, all turned into nutrients for his improvement in cultivation.

He could clearly feel that the vigorous power in his body was growing wildly, like a flood breaking through a dam, unstoppable!
It only takes a short period of time for him to completely refine these huge gains, and his cultivation will surely usher in a qualitative leap and reach a higher level!

By then, he will have even more powerful strength to protect Yunzhou and fight against more dangerous enemies!
Thinking of this, Jiang Yue clenched his fists tightly, and his knuckles turned slightly white due to the force.

Deep in his eyes, there is unparalleled confidence and determination.

"Yunzhou..."

He thought about what he had seen and heard along the way. Many of the 72 states of the Great Zhou had now fallen.

The people in the state were naturally living in dire straits.

After all, these forces often have ulterior motives, so how could they behave peacefully after coming to power?

But if you want to change all this, it's difficult!
It is beyond the power of one person, unless...
Unless one is strong enough, one person can conquer an entire state!
He whispered in his heart, his voice low and firm, "This time, the result will definitely be different!" (End of this chapter)
