Easy Way of Cultivation: Power Harvesting-Chapter 292 - 156: Demon Venerable Sheds Blood, Battle against the Demon Heaven Alliance (Part 2)

Huo Tianzheng spread his five fingers, enveloping more than a dozen auras within robust True Power: "This is the aura of the Cyan Bull Demon Monarch. This guy possesses strong bloodlines and a top divine weapon inherited from the Cyan Bull Race. If you encounter him before reaching the Late Divine Realm, just run.This is the aura of the Silver Fox Clan Leader. Like the Cyan Bull Demon Monarch, if you encounter him before reaching the Late Divine Realm, run away..."Huo Tianzheng was well aware of Wei Fan’s combat prowess, yet he cautioned Wei Fan not to engage with the Cyan Bull Demon Monarch and the Silver Fox Clan Leader until reaching the Late Divine Realm.Of course, using the Great Leiyin Bell was an exception, but Huo Tianzheng clearly knew this was Wei Fan’s life-saving trump card and wouldn’t be used lightly.While receiving the auras of the Cyan Bull Demon Monarch and the Silver Fox Clan Leader, Wei Fan nodded.He looked at Huo Tianzheng with some uncertainty.Even his own skills required reaching the Late Divine Realm to contend with these two Demon Monarchs, yet Huo Tianzheng could take them both on and defeat them; this old man seemed quite terrifying too!"This is the aura of the White Tiger Demon Monarch. This creature is merely in the Mid-Spirit Condensation stage, easy for you to kill, and its territory is not deep, just near Black Wind Ridge...""This is the aura of the Rhino Demon Monarch. Its territory is next to Baihe County and has been at war with the Demon Suppression Bureau there. It cannot be killed for now. The leaders of any groups currently at war with the Human Race cannot be slain.Regardless of whether General Pei and Qi Zhicun can kill the Black Lake Jiao Venerable or not, the Human Race’s territory cannot expand, nor can any more faction leaders be killed, or Demon Kings will emerge.Also, remember that once you’ve reached the Divine Realm, you should refrain from large-scale slaughter of ordinary demon fiends. Just kill the Demon Monarchs..."This was an unwritten rule between the Human Race and the Demon Race, where battles between Divine Realm individuals and Demon Monarchs were acceptable but wouldn’t affect ordinary people or demon fiends.Otherwise, if your Human Realm destroys thousands of ordinary demon fiends within my demon territory, while my Demon Monarch comes to your human towns to massacre tens of thousands of ordinary people, it wouldn’t take long for everyone to end up doomed.Of course, killing some Nascent Soul Great Demons along with a Demon Monarch is acceptable, just don’t engage in large-scale indiscriminate slaughter.For instance, just killing the White Tiger Demon Monarch is fine, but if you were to invade their territory to annihilate the White Tiger Race, the Demon Race would imitate you.Though the Human Race and demon fiends are mortal enemies, each level has its own battles.During the Cyan Cloud Mountain incident, even with the rampant Cang Niu, He Tai Xian and Situ Feng didn’t act against him for these reasons.Huo Tianzheng handed over the auras while explaining, and soon Wei Fan and Long Xueyi had received the over ten Demon Monarch auras, departing from Huo Tianzheng’s place.Wei Fan looked at Long Xueyi: "I plan to hunt a few Demon Monarchs once the commander from the Capital City arrives. Do you want to join?"Since breaking into the Divine Realm, the cold sharpness of Long Xueyi’s aura had become more pronounced."Mm!"Long Xueyi nodded lightly. She lacked experience in hunting Spirit Concentration Demon Monarchs, so partnering with Wei Fan for a few trials was the best choice.After all, she wasn’t short on merit.Wei Fan needed merits to exchange for Martial Arts at the Demon Suppression Bureau, but her Long Family had its heritage and didn’t need the Bureau’s Martial Arts.That day, Tongzhou was shaken as Zuoqiu Yi, the most demonic disciple of the Divine Sword Sect, who achieved the Divine Realm at twenty, challenged the Horizontal Cultivation of Innate Wei Fan from the Demon Suppression Bureau outside Su City, and was slain by Wei Fan there, along with Elder Meng Tianrang of the Divine Sword Sect.It’s said that when the battle erupted, tens of thousands witnessed it outside Su City.As this news spread, Tongzhou was instantly in an uproar.Soon, further news claimed that after Zuoqiu Yi and Meng Tianrang were killed, the Sect Leader of the Divine Sword Sect, Martial Venerable Qi Zhicun, flew out in rage to Su City intending to kill Wei Fan for revenge, but was blocked by General Pei Shinan with charges of rebellion, threatening to eradicate the Divine Sword Sect.Qi Zhicun was forced to compromise, leading the Divine Sword Sect’s Divine Realm Martial Sect to join forces with the Tongzhou Demon Suppression Bureau, attacking Black Lake, fiercely battling the Black Lake Demon Race, with both Martial Venerables besieging Black Lake Jiao Venerable, ultimately causing the Black Lake Jiao Venerable’s dragon blood to dye the lake red before retreating into its depths.Afterwards, Jianghu people went to see that the boundless Black Lake’s water level had fallen by hundreds of meters, littered with Black Lake Demon Race corpses, with two Demon Monarchs among the dead and countless Nascent Soul Great Demons.Huo Tianzheng shook his head: "It’s not merely about shedding dragon blood; Qi Zhicun was frightened by General Pei this time and made a great effort. That old Jiao had two of its four dragon arms severed, and its dragon body nearly shattered, almost killed entirely.Unfortunately, the deeper the Black Lake goes, the colder it becomes, with only the Black Lake Jiao Venerable able to dive into its depths. General Pei and Qi Zhicun dared not chase to the deepest parts.However, despite its escape, it won’t regain its peak for ten years of recovery.Whether human or demon fiend, the higher the cultivation, though the Life Force is more vigorous, the longer recovery time is needed for injuries.Like the old Black Lake Jiao Venerable that lived over a thousand years, for its thousand years of tempered flesh to rebuild is not a matter of a day.Compared to Jianghu rumors, the Demon Suppression Bureau has more insider information.Wei Fan looked at Huo Tianzheng: "You called us here not just to tell us about the Black Lake battle, right?"Now on the second day after Wei Fan slew Zuoqiu Yi, with the Black Lake battle concluded.Huo Tianzheng purposely called him and Long Xueyi, obviously not just to recount the Black Lake battle, but likely for something important.Huo Tianzheng nodded: "Though the Black Lake Demon Race was decimated and the Human Race claimed victory, the defeat of Black Lake Jiao Venerable has incited other demon races within Tongzhou’s borders. Now every front-line city bordering the demon races in Tongzhou is under attack by Demon Army forces."Of Tongzhou’s twenty-one commandery cities, nearly half are on front lines bordering demon fiend lands, meaning that currently all borderlines in Tongzhou are exploding into large-scale battles.Under such circumstances, any potential breach on a frontline could result in the Demon Army’s sweeping invasion, threatening countless ordinary people’s lives."Besides the armies clashing, the Demon Heaven Alliance’s Spirit Concentration Demon Monarchs have appeared, hunting Human Race commander-level masters, with Situ Feng still nursing his injuries and being the most vulnerable. Now, you and Xueyi need to proceed to Cyan Cloud Mountain.You can choose to protect Situ Feng or proactively hunt Demon Monarchs to repel the Demon Heaven Alliance.Wherever there is a member of the Demon Heaven Alliance, a Demon Hunter must counteract!""Understood!"Wei Fan and Long Xueyi nodded and withdrew from Huo Tianzheng. Currently, Su City is under the most focus, with the Demon Race aiming to suppress the Human Race’s momentum, opting to either suppress Tongzhou or Su City.Tongzhou has General Pei, so Spirit Concentration Demon Monarchs dare not provoke his ire, making Su City the easier target for suppression."Wait for me, give me a lift!"Zhang Xianlong’s voice sounded.He was also aware of the Demon Heaven Alliance members’ mobilization and intended to head to Cyan Cloud Mountain.On his own, it would take at least three days, and after arriving, he’d need to rest and recover, possibly making him too late.Whereas flying with Wei Fan and Long Xueyi would only take one or two hours to reach Cyan Cloud Mountain."You two really aren’t considerate. Before you reached the Divine Realm, you always included me wherever you went. After reaching the Divine Realm, you forgot about me."He couldn’t help but grumble at Wei Fan and Long Xueyi."We’d love to include you; the key problem is your cultivation is too low!"Wei Fan’s Will Power manifested, taking Zhang Xianlong straight up to the sky, with Long Xueyi following suit. In an instant, the three turned into black dots and disappeared over the horizon."So fast!"Zhang Xianlong watched in shock as the mountains below quickly receded and vanished behind.An hour later, the three appeared at Cyan Cloud Mountain, seeing the half-built new Human Race city!Black Wind City!He found that the Human Race was also somewhat bad at naming things. This defense city established on the original territory of the Black Python Demon Lord, like Cyan Cloud City before, was simply and rudely named after the nearby Black Wind Ridge as Black Wind City.It had been half a month since Cyan Cloud Mountain was razed, with the walls of Black Wind City already up, but the buildings within still unfinished.The official road between Black Wind City and Cyan Cloud City was also open, with supplies continuously transported here.As the three landed in the city, they were immediately noticed by Situ Feng, who sent a mind communication for them to come over."So the target is indeed Situ Feng!"At this moment, Wei Fan noticed that inside his body, two out of the dozen Demon Monarch auras given by Huo Tianzheng became incredibly active, indicating that besides the Golden Eagle Demon Monarch, at least two more Demon Monarchs were active near Black Wind City, evidently aiming to eliminate Situ Feng to quash the Human Race’s momentum.
