506: The harvest is rich, and I want to break through the seventh level of the law domain
King White Tiger, Half-step Demon Commander, gained 20,000 years of demon life essence.
Demon Tiger King, Tianbao Mountain Range Demon Lord, possesses a partial royal bloodline, Demon Commander First Stage, gained 40,000 years of demon life essence.
Heavenly Dog Star, Earth Fiend Hall Master of West Prefecture, Half-step Rongtian, gained 3,000 years of demon life essence.
Congratulations to the Host, you have slain 420 True Devil-grade Tiger Demons, gaining 820,000 years of demon life essence.
Congratulations to the Host, you have slain 200 Transcendent Human Devils, gaining 300,000 years of demon life essence.
… …
demon life essence: 4,350,000 years.
A series of System messages refreshed on the panel.
Gaining a million years of Lifespan, not bad.
A hint of satisfaction flashed across Chu Jiang’s face.
“These demons with royal bloodlines really drop a lot; if there were a few more, I’d be rich.”
Chu Jiang thought to himself, but demons with royal bloodlines were too rare. He had killed so many demons, yet he could count the royal bloodlines he’d encountered on one hand.
“System, how much more Lifespan is needed to Break through to Law Domain Seventh Stage?”
“Host, another 6.6 million years are needed.”
“Six!”
Chu Jiang’s face darkened. He seriously suspected the System was taking kickbacks, and that such a vast amount of Lifespan wasn't actually needed.
However, with the blooming of the Pure Yang Immortal Seed, his bone structure would evolve, and his talent would also advance, so the consumption would definitely be greatly reduced. Otherwise, if he were to Break through to the Rongtian Realm, each stage would require millions or even tens of millions of Lifespan.
Whoosh—
He took out several Storage Pouches, which were the treasures of the Tianbao Tiger Demon clan, as well as the treasury of the West Prefecture’s Earth Fiend Hall.
All of their Cultivation resources.
Inside were a large number of demon Spiritual Artifacts, Magic Treasures, and Medicinal Pills.
Among them, in the Storage Pouch of the Tiger Demon clan, at its center, Chu Jiang found a specially made treasure box, covered in beast patterns and sealed by runes.
After opening it, a hint of pleasant surprise flashed across Chu Jiang’s face as he said, “Sixth-grade, Dragon Breath Heavenly Fire Fruit!”
The Tianbao Mountain Range truly lived up to its name as the largest treasure mountain in West Prefecture, with abundant Luck, even possessing a sixth-grade fruit.
Besides this, there were over a hundred fourth-grade and fifth-grade Heaven And Earth Treasures.
There were also top-grade Medicinal Pills for demons to improve their Cultivation, such as the Purple Jade Demon Pill.
High-Grade Spirit Stones exceeded 400,000, Medium-Grade Spirit Stones numbered 2.3 million, and Low-Grade Spirit Stones amounted to 150 million.
He was immensely wealthy, more than double the combined wealth of all the rebellious aristocratic families plundered in Lei Prefecture.
However, it all benefited him now.
It was always best to target the big spenders; demons were the wealthiest faction.
Chu Jiang glanced at the Earth Fiend Hall's items, which were mostly experimental Materials related to demon experiments, with nothing particularly eye-catching.
“That’s enough for now.”
… …
In the Tianbao Mountain Range, residual Tiger Demons were still resisting. An Earth-Grade Tiger Demon stood on the mountain peak, witnessing the successive demise of the Demon Tiger King and King White Tiger.
“Roar…” (The King is dead!)
Throughout the mountains, roars echoed.
“Roar…” (The King is gone, why are we still fighting? Flee quickly!)
“Roar…” (As long as the green mountains remain, there will be wood to burn.)
Although the remaining Tiger Demons found it hard to accept the news of their Tiger King's demise, the facts were laid bare. Continuing the fight would only lead to complete annihilation.
Moreover.
If one king was gone, they could always find another. But if they themselves were gone, they were truly gone.
Wang Chao, Ma Han, and others, though they couldn't understand their encrypted beast language, seeing the Tiger Demons' posture, quickly ordered the Demon Suppression Guards to pursue them at full speed. How could they let the duck that had reached their mouth fly away?
Their main force had already been slaughtered by their Lord; if they couldn't even deal with some remnants, they might as well quit.
“Kill! Not a single demon must be left in the entire Tianbao Mountain Range!” Wang Chao coldly shouted after beheading an Earth-Grade Tiger Demon with a single strike.
“Yes!”
“Brothers, kill them for me!”
“Kill!”
Eight or nine hundred Demon Suppression Guards, with even greater Aura, flew towards the Tiger Demons in all directions of the Tianbao Mountain Range, slaughtering them.
Due to the scarcity of Tiger Demons, a dozen Demon Suppression Guards would surround and attack one demon, with a few unlucky ones being targeted by dozens of Demon Suppression Guards.
The remaining dozens of Tiger Demons were incredibly frustrated.
“Damn it, if you have the guts, fight one-on-one! What kind of skill is ganging up on us?”
“Let’s fight them to the death! Killing one is breaking even, killing two is a huge profit… Damn it, I got counter-killed…” (;☉ Д ☉)
A few Tiger Demons had just roared, but before they could even be arrogant for three breaths, they were killed.
Neither in quality nor in quantity were the two sides on the same level; it was a complete and utter crush.
Half an hour later.
The battle in the Tianbao Mountain Range drew to a close, with Tiger Demon corpses scattered everywhere, completely annihilated.
All demon corpses were collected and handed over by the Demon Suppression Guards. Ever since following Chu Jiang, they naturally understood that these demons were all treasures.
After purifying the toxic substances, they would become peerless medicinal herbs.
Boom!
Chu Jiang waved his hand, set up several large pots, and started heating oil.
He took out a hundred purified Tiger Demon carcasses for sharing, while the rest were all put into the purple gold gourd to be refined into high-purity demon liquid.
He studied which parts of the Tiger Demon's body were best for stir-frying, braising, steaming, or roasting…
Various seasonings were added.
The Blazing Heaven True Fire began to burn fiercely.
“Sizzle…”
“Splash!”
Various aromas spread, causing many Demon Suppression Guards to swallow their saliva.
“Good heavens, you’re using the Demon Suppression Division’s supreme fire-attribute Cultivation Technique for barbecue?”
Bathed War, who was beside him, twitched his mouth, and a strange look flashed in his eyes as he looked at Chu Jiang, though it did smell quite good.
“Making the best use of everything.”
“Deep-fried tiger penis… delicious, Pacification Commissioner Mu, come, this is a great tonic…”
Chu Jiang said with a faint smile, tossing a skewer of tiger penis to Bathed War.
Bathed War took the tiger penis without a word, naturally understanding that it still contained considerable Qi and blood.
For someone of his Realm, it could only slightly increase his foundation, but for those in lower Realms, it was indeed a good item.
Soon, all the Demon Suppression Guards received fragrant roasted meat, eating and refining the energy within it.
“So fragrant!”
When the roasting was almost done, Chu Jiang himself tasted a piece, tearing off a golden chunk of meat, plump and lean, melting in his mouth, a truly exquisite delicacy.
“Life should be like this: dating the most beautiful girls, drinking the finest wine, and eating the best meat.”
Chu Jiang closed his eyes, savoring the taste of the beast meat. A sip of wine went down, truly surpassing the life of an immortal.
He had to admit, his culinary skills were becoming more refined, and his control of the heat had reached a state of perfection.
If he had a plate of peanuts and a few plates of beef, it would be even more perfect.
“Xuan’er, Yue Xuanji, you two come and eat some too!”
Chu Jiang called out to the two women.
The two women, one on each side, each with their own unique charm and graceful demeanor, sat beside Chu Jiang.
Yue Xuanji tore off a piece of meat, from which golden juice flowed, glistening, the meat fragrant. Taking a bite, she immediately exclaimed, “Ah… so fragrant! I never thought this Tiger Demon could be made into such a peerless delicacy!”
“Lord, your cooking skills have improved even further. I feel that the chefs in those restaurants can’t compare to you.” Fu Yunxuan said with a slight blush after eating the roasted meat, praising him unreservedly.
“Of course, your Lord is an all-rounder Genius, a famous gourmet of Great Chu!” Chu Jiang said with considerable pride.
It's just that he only made demon delicacies.
(The demons who just died: Let me say thank you ≡ three⊂(#`Д´)⊃)
“Tiger stew is here!” Ma Han announced. From the black pot, steam rose, and the cooked tiger stew had a clear, translucent broth and a rich meaty aroma.
“Dinner time!”
Wang Chao, Ma Han, Zhang Long, and Zhao Hu distributed the prepared tiger stew, ensuring everyone got some.
Over a thousand people gathered around several large pots, eating to their heart's content.
Some Demon Suppression Guards in the Divine Power Realm broke through a stage in their Realm on the spot after eating.
“Wang Laosan, I’ve broken through again!” a Demon Suppression Guard exclaimed happily.
Ever since following Lord Shao Si from the imperial capital, resources had never been lacking. The stipends distributed were several times that of others, and he had advanced all the way from Golden Core to Divine Power Third Stage.
He was considered to be performing poorly, at the bottom of the personal guards.
“General Liu, what are you showing off for? I’ll surpass you next time!” Wang Laosan said dejectedly. Before, he and General Liu were tied for last place. Now it was just him alone. He was both afraid his brother would suffer and afraid his brother would advance.
Their conversation caused a burst of laughter among the surrounding people.
Someone who could be an Old Ancestor in a small outside Sect was indeed a bottom-tier figure in Lord Shao Si's personal army.
Here, there was no shortage of resources, with all sorts of good things constantly being poured into their mouths.
After the meat feast ended, Chu Jiang went alone to a cave.
He murmured softly:
“With these resources, plus those other resources, breaking through to Law Domain Seventh Stage should be enough.”
The next step.
Is to sweep through Dian Prefecture in one fell swoop, suppress the War God, and Break through to the Rongtian Realm.
