Start from the God of Death and break through the world.

Chapter 937 Human Uprising
With these questions in mind, Aizen arrived at the ancient capital, a city-state they had never visited before, which was said to be the oldest.

The company here is called the Ancient God Company, and it is the only one among the six city-states where the company's leaders can see the gods.

The Julius family ruled the ancient capital for over six thousand years. They had always been able to provide the ancient gods with services that satisfied them, and thus had the privilege of seeing the ancient gods during sacrifices.

Through his deal with the Old Gods Company, Aizen met the Ancient Gods, offered them gifts, and confirmed another of his conjectures.

That is, the monsters are not of one mind. Only the monsters born from the system chain under the gods themselves will obey their orders, while monsters from other factions will be hostile to each other and even fight each other.

However, the growth of monsters mostly relies on negative human emotions, and there is no benefit in killing each other. Therefore, given the current situation of the separation of major city-states, it is rare to see monsters actually killing each other in cities.

But this is only because there is no benefit for the monsters to fight each other. What if the monsters could gain something from fighting each other?
With this thought in mind, Aizen offered the Ancient Gods... a strange method of devouring.

Yes, since Nia can learn this method, and even Ah Huo, a creature whose identity is unknown (whether it's a panda or a dragon), can learn it, then why can't the supernatural itself learn it?

Theoretically speaking, the greatest adaptability is found between two oddities.

The method used by the sword guardian is less a human cultivation method and more a bizarre one.

Based on his previous reasoning, the anomalies in this world, on a global scale, are actually a relatively young life form, after all, they have only a total history of nine thousand years.

Therefore, the supernatural beings are still using primitive methods to cultivate humans and slowly improve themselves by acquiring negative emotions. This is because they were born from human negative emotions, and therefore naturally believe that this is the best way to survive and become stronger.

In reality, explorers who have traversed the heavens will understand that the upper limit of a life form's strength is completely different depending on whether it has its own unique cultivation system.

If humans don't understand how to cultivate and develop their potential, even carrying bricks will be difficult. But if they can develop the human body's treasures through cultivation, moving mountains and filling seas, and even destroying stars and the world will be no problem.

Aizen felt that the strange life forms had not yet reached their singularity, just like primitive humans who simply did not know how to develop and enhance their life force.

This is limited to the level of intelligence. After all, strange beings are not good at thinking. Even if there are some strange beings with intelligence, they are extremely rare.

Humans are different. Every human is an intelligent being born, and with a sufficient population, there will always be geniuses who come up with ingenious ideas.

The Human King is a genius. He developed a method to become stronger by devouring monsters. However, this system was conceived after he saw the monsters. In reality, this system is never most suitable for humans, but for monsters.

Aizen passed this training system on to the Old Gods, who were very pleased. Not only did they not kill Aizen, they also bestowed upon him a lot of Soul Coins and ordered him to teach their army of monsters.

Aizen readily agreed, as this was exactly what he wanted. Over the next period of time, he taught various strange beings in the Old Capital how to devour them.

This operation lasted no more than two days before he was approached by members of the Julius family for a secret meeting.

The Julius family was clearly planning to silence Aizen, as they found his behavior too strange and suspected it might shake the foundations of their rule.

During that meeting, the Julius family's higher-ups revealed their thoughts and stance: they had been secretly researching divine warriors, were the first among the major city-states to undertake this project, and had even secretly shared the technology with other city-states.

They had long harbored rebellious intentions, and in their eyes, Aizen's actions were those of a lackey helping monsters gain greater power, thus hindering their rebellion.

After all, they had never seen such a devouring method before, but after Aizen explained its effects to the Old Gods, the researchers quickly realized that compared to this method, their research on the improvement of divine warriors was frighteningly inefficient.

If all the monsters learn this method, then no matter how much they research the God Warriors, they will never be able to turn the tables.

Faced with numerous advanced firearms from the Ancient Gods Corporation, guns pointed at his head, Aizen simply smiled and said, "This is to make humanity great again."

The Julius family was very confused, but they patiently listened to Aizen explain the reason, and were amazed at the end.

Aizen's offering to the Old Gods was not to help the supernatural beings grow stronger; on the contrary, he intended to bring them to destruction.

There were many difficulties in dealing with the strange creatures in this world. For example, some of these creatures were beings of will without a physical body or soul, and apart from a few methods such as soul intent, they were very difficult to attack and kill. Even Aizen would have had a lot of trouble dealing with them.

There are also some strange and special mechanisms that allow them to survive even after being cut into millions of pieces, and to continuously split and regenerate.

However, these are just the operational difficulties of killing them, not the real pain points. Aizen understood that once he grasped the underlying logic of the city-state, he knew that there was no way to kill all the strange creatures.

When you kill one strange creature, human negative emotions may create two more strange creatures.

If we take into account the villains' thinking in the Jujutsu Kaisen world that Brother Lu once visited, if they wanted to completely eliminate the monsters, they should kill all humans first, and then kill the monsters; that way, every one killed would be one less to kill.

However, Brother Lu would most likely not agree to such a crazy plan. In fact, without the help of human combat forces, he and Brother Lu would not be able to defeat such a large number of monsters.

So Aizen changed his approach. Since they couldn't kill the countless monsters scattered throughout the continent of Compassion with their own strength, they might as well let the monsters do it themselves.

Once the monsters are taught how to devour each other, they will naturally have a reason to fight each other.

Most bizarre beings are low-intelligence and insane creatures. They don't consider the survival of their species; they act solely on instinct. Eating the sweetest humans is to satisfy their appetite and become stronger—a latent instinct in every living being. If humans knew a way to grow stronger by killing each other, perhaps some wise among them would try to dissuade them (though it would likely be useless). But there are no such people among the bizarre.

Therefore, as long as the monsters learn this method, they will enter an endless cycle of killing, like raising poisonous insects, and in the end only a very few powerful monsters will remain.

In this way, as long as their individual combat strength is sufficient, they can eliminate the monsters by killing those strong ones. Moreover, if they kill even stronger monster aggregates and then absorb them, they can break through their current bottleneck in absorbing monsters.

Of course, this plan is also extremely risky in the long run, because once the monsters devour each other and produce the ultimate Gu King, the upper limit of difficulty in this world will rise steadily, and it is possible that monsters with the strength of the ninth rank will be born.

But that will obviously take time. At least in the initial phase, it will be a huge uproar, which will be a good opportunity for humanity to kill the monsters that have regrouped.

In the subsequent conversation, Aizen asked the Julius family about the God Warriors.

As he expected, the materials used in the research on divine warriors in the various city-states were obtained from the bizarre events of killing each other's city-states.

They make a deal: kill the anomalies in the other city, then take the bodies back to their own city-state for research. This way, even if the anomalies actually try to investigate, they won't be able to find the company members within their own city-state.

In reality, the strange beings are not very intelligent. Apart from the old capital, the strange deities almost never appear. The strange beings that usually reside in the city are not very smart and will not investigate these matters.

Furthermore, the supernatural are inherently cold-hearted and lack any sense of community. At most, they only treat other supernatural beings of their own kind as companions. For example, the marrow-sucking demons would live together and maintain a harmonious living environment.

Between city-states, because they worship different gods, the strange creatures within the cities are derived from the factions of that ancient god.

Therefore, in different city-states, apart from those common, harmless production-related anomalies, the types of anomalies are all different.

The strange creatures living in the city don't care where the research department got the unfamiliar corpses from. In their eyes, the dead strange creatures are no different from human corpses, no, they are even worse than human corpses, because they think human flesh tastes good, but they would never eat strange creatures.

It is precisely because of this bizarre lack of common sense and bizarre callousness that the research on divine warriors between city-states has been able to continue for so many years.

However, Aizen felt that the truth would eventually come out. No matter how well the company destroyed evidence in the details, it was only a matter of time before the supernatural beings discovered the problem. He felt that the company's plan to make God Warriors was unreliable from the very beginning.

Because the growth of the Divine Warriors is too slow, even with technology and ruthless skills, they can at most train warriors who can fight against mid-level monsters. Someone like Nia is already considered a masterpiece of the Divine Warriors.

If the supernatural beings did not interfere with the research on divine warriors at all, it would be almost impossible to cultivate divine warriors as powerful as the ancient gods. After all, they couldn't even do the Devouring Technique. Nia could only devour about 245 points of attributes at most.

The Julius family's starting point was correct. Even with powerful technological weapons, humans cannot deal with monsters mainly because their spirits are too weak. If they could obtain extraordinary power to strengthen their spirits, that is, become divine warriors, they might be able to bring out their advantages.

In reality, superweapons like the Mother's Sigh are ineffective against many strange creatures, making the plan doomed from the start.

Aizen still admired the rebellious spirit of these people. It can only be said that in addition to their servility, humans can also be inspired with boundless ambition after gaining power, and some people can even develop a sense of mission.

That's how the Julius family is. They never lack food or clothing and stand at the top of the ancient city-state, but over time, they also begin to feel unwilling to work under the strange.

Therefore, after talking with Aizen, they hit it off immediately and established a cooperative relationship on the spot.

The Julius family did not spread the Devouring Technique to other city-states because the risk of spreading it artificially was too high, and the Old Gods would soon discover it.

However, this method could not be monopolized by the ancient gods, because the strange beings on the outskirts of the city-states might intersect with each other, and this method is not complicated, especially for the strange beings. It can be said that they can learn it by watching the actual process once.

Therefore, as time goes by, this method of devouring will naturally spread, and they don't need to take this risk.

What the Julius family needs to do is help Aizen rally dissenting high-ranking officials in other city-states to provide firearms support to humanity at critical moments.

Unfortunately, by the time they began their operation, the numbers had already dwindled to the point where people were supposed to die; all the high-ranking family members who had previously controlled the companies in the major city-states had been wiped out.

The fluctuating numbers over the past few days have caused the deaths of many people in their fixed positions, giving the company's middle management a chance to rise to the top. They think they finally have a chance to sit at the table and share the pie, thinking about how to flatter the strange creatures, unaware that their predecessors have already prepared for a rebellion.

At present, Aizen is leading the young people of the ancient families of various city-states, as well as their private soldiers who are loyal only to them, in a counterattack.

The current city-state rulers never expected that anyone would dare to defy the will of the gods and easily let them board the ship; the outcome was self-evident.

Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu is, in some ways, more terrifying than the mind control of monsters. It easily made those people relinquish their control over various aspects of their lives, and then they committed suicide.

He now commands the fleets of the six major city-states, and the Julius family and other families continue to appeal to the smaller city-states scattered throughout the continent.

In today's battle within the tribe, Lu Li and his companions killed far too many powerful monsters. Not only did the gods of the six major city-states fall, but many powerful monsters that ruled over smaller city-states also perished.

In other words, those city-states were actually in a state of no master, and Aizen believed that the time for all mankind to rise up had come.
