171: First set a small goal, get a 200,000 yuan demon life span flower

Three days later.

All resources from Myriad Sound Valley were transported back to the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division.

Chu Jiang sat in the main seat of the Demon Suppression Hall, handling the major affairs of the Demon Suppression Division.

Currently, he was the strongest Qianhu in the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division. With the Pacification Envoy absent, all the Qianhu recommended him as the temporary person in charge, awaiting the Pacification Envoy's return.

“Commander Chu, the Shadow Guard has sent news that the high-level members of Purple Flame Demon Sect, one of the Seven Great Sects, have recently left their Sect. It is suspected that they are cooperating with Earth Fiend Hall to awaken Purple Mountain Monarch!”

Purple Mountain Monarch.

He was the third-generation Sect Master of the Purple Flame Demon Sect, a heaven-blessed Genius. He Broke through to Peerless Grandmaster before the age of forty. Later, he collaborated with Earth Fiend Hall and joined the Human-Demon Experiment.

He transformed himself into a demon.

His strength soared.

He Advanced rapidly, Breaking through to Peerless Grandmaster. However, due to the flaws of the Human-Demon Experiment, he needed to consume a large amount of Human Race heart blood to resolve it.

He was suppressed and killed by the Pacification Envoy at that time.

“Continue to monitor their movements. If there’s any unusual activity, report it to me immediately!”

The Demon Suppression Guard nodded and continued, “Next is the news about the Heavens Pride Gathering!”

“Your destruction of Myriad Sound Valley caused a huge uproar. The Seven Great Sects held an emergency closed-door meeting and fully exchanged their opinions!”

“During this period, the remnants of Myriad Sound Valley proposed that the Seven Great Sects jointly kill Commander Chu.”

“Yu Xu Palace, Profound Darkness Sect, Blood River Sect, Poison Sect, and other Schools refused. The Purple Flame Demon Sect, Golden Saber Gate, and the remnants of Myriad Sound Valley reached a consensus, intending to harm you, Commander Chu.”

“The specific details are still being investigated.”

Chu Jiang frowned slightly. This Purple Flame Demon Sect was being so provocative; it was forcing him to kill again.

“Commander Chu, should we send someone to the Heavens Pride Gathering?”

In previous years, the Seven Great Sects had also held Heavens Pride Gatherings, and the Demon Suppression Division would attend.

It was basically once every hundred years.

Although it was unknown why the Seven Great Sects held it early, there must be a reason.

“Go, why not go!”

Chu Jiang said in a deep voice. Now was the time for the Demon Suppression Guard to expand its manpower, and this Heavens Pride Gathering was a good place to recruit talent.

Not only were there Loose Cultivator Geniuses from this province, but also people from other provinces came to participate.

Myriad Sound Valley's millennium foundation had already been transported back to the Demon Suppression Division. With these resources, there was no fear of a lack of people joining the Demon Suppression Division.

“I will have my subordinates, Centurion Fu and Centurion Wang, lead two hundred Demon Suppression Guards there later!”

The two hundred Demon Suppression Guards under Chu Jiang had already become the ace force of the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division. After being enhanced by Myriad Sound Valley's resources,

One was at Grandmaster Realm Peak, and one was at Grandmaster Realm Late Stage.

The Vajra Realm had increased to fifty-seven people, and there were over a hundred Innate Peak cultivators, with most of them reaching the critical point, only lacking an opportunity.

They could Breakthrough.

Under other Qianhu, those in the Vajra Realm could be Centurions, but under him, they were just small flag bearers.

Their benefits had already been increased, only their Rank had not.

If one Vajra Realm cultivator managed a hundred people, even if all the Demon Suppression Guards in the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Division were assigned to Chu Jiang, there wouldn't be enough spots.

“Your subordinate obeys!”

After the Demon Suppression Guard finished reporting his work, he exited the main hall.

Just at this moment.

Centurion Zhang of the Intelligence Hall stepped into the Demon Suppression Hall and respectfully said,

“Commander Chu, I have found the information you requested!”

Chu Jiang's eyes flickered, indicating for him to continue.

“This token belongs to the number one assassination organization in the west, Mandala. As long as there’s money, there’s no one they dare not assassinate. There’s only one thing: they don’t accept contracts to kill demons!”

Mandala?

And they don't kill demons.

“Within Mandala, the Ranks are clear. Assassin Ranks are divided into — Bone Rank, Silver Moon Rank, Gold Crown Rank, and each Rank is further divided into three stars!”

“The lowest Bone Rank assassins are all at the Great Grandmaster Realm. The one who assassinated the Qianhu should be a Bone Rank two-star assassin. Bone Rank three-star assassins almost never fail when assassinating those of the same Rank!”

“They are all invincible in their respective realms, Cultivating Advanced Mandala Cultivation Techniques, and are skilled in the Dao of assassination!”

“Once, a Peerless Grandmaster Peak expert from another province was assassinated by a Bone Rank three-star assassin, and was killed in just one move!”

“However, within Mandala, the three-star assassins of each major stage are extremely precious, and the difficulty of advancing to three stars is extremely high.”

“Not failing is just the basic condition.”

“Often, Bone Rank two-star assassins directly advance to Silver Moon one-star!”

“Their Peak achievement was dispatching a Gold Crown Rank assassin to assassinate Loshan King, the number one non-royal king in the west a thousand years ago.”

“Loshan King’s strength had already surpassed the first major realm of Beyond Mortal, yet he still couldn’t escape the assassination of a Gold Crown Rank assassin!”

Chu Jiang frowned deeply. Was this Mandala a super force supported by demons? They didn't accept demon contracts, specializing in killing Human Race experts.

“The archives show that the imperial court at that time was furious, dispatching a large number of experts, even sending out the Demon Suppression Army, but only captured one hall master and some small leaders.”

“After this battle, Mandala shocked the world, firmly securing its position as the number one assassination organization in the west, while Loshan King’s manor declined from prosperity!”

Centurion Zhang continued:

“The person who tried to assassinate the Qianhu should not make a second attempt in a short time. Hiring a Bone Rank two-star assassin was likely their limit.”

“Otherwise, if they directly hired a Bone Rank three-star assassin, it’s probably because they don’t have the financial resources!”

Chu Jiang nodded, and Centurion Zhang then retreated.

【Friendly Reminder】

【Host's current talent is below the average level for advancing to Beyond Mortal. Upgrading after Host's talent improves can save a large amount of Lifespan】

【After stepping into Beyond Mortal, killing demons below the True Demon stage will switch to an accumulation System. Accumulating demon kills, reaching one hundred, one thousand… will achieve special achievements and obtain mysterious rewards】

【It is recommended that the Host accumulate a large amount of demon life essence before Breaking through to Beyond Mortal. After the Breakthrough, you can directly advance significantly】

“Hmm…”

So thoughtful?

If it were another System, it would definitely tell you after the Breakthrough.

Killing low-Rank demons would no longer grant Lifespan.

Then, you could only stare blankly.

Mysterious rewards, I'm a bit excited. I wonder if there will be Advanced martial arts or some special buffs.

“Not bad, not bad, I’ll give you a thumbs up!”

It seems the plan needs to change.

【Everything is to serve you. I will assist your progress to the greatest extent within my authority】

I'm not in a hurry to go to the Heavens Pride Gathering. Getting demon life essence is more important first.

Anyway, the Heavens Pride Gathering, just the preliminary round, will take ten days to half a month, and there are still the official competition, top ten competition, and championship.

He didn't have time to waste there.

But before that, he needed to fuse the Beyond Mortal Cultivation Technique.

Then, he could directly Breakthrough.

In the battle at Qian Jue Mountain Range, he killed a large number of demons, as well as Earth Fiend Hall's Peerless Grandmaster Human-Demon, Peerless Grandmaster clones, and so on, gaining eighty thousand contribution points.

Destroying Myriad Sound Valley would not, in principle, earn contribution points, but Li Bubai of the Mission Hall, still within his authority, added forty thousand contribution points for him.

It was considered giving him a small back door.

A total of one hundred and twenty thousand contribution points were obtained.

Purchasing power equivalent to two hundred and forty thousand contribution points.

“Great Sun Vajra Body”

And several martial arts he had eyed last time but couldn't afford.

This time, he would exchange for all of them.

Fire and lightning attributes were the priority. He had a Fire Spirit Body, which itself had a boost, plus the spiritual ganoderma he obtained in the Myriad Sound Valley Forbidden Ground.

Perhaps it would cause his Fire Spirit Body to evolve once more.

And a large amount of purple lightning crystal might allow him to develop lightning attribute mastery, making Cultivation as if aided by a god, compensating for his lack of talent.

He would go to Pill Hall later to ask if there were any treasures to improve talent.

Thinking of this.

Chu Jiang stood up and left the Demon Suppression Hall, heading to the Scripture Pavilion.

First, set a small goal: get two hundred thousand demon life essence.

Strive to advance to the Transcendent Realm within half a month.
