Chapter 116: Refining Soldiers - Grafting Technique!
Lingming Deer King, Perish!
As the massive deer head rolled onto the ground, the aura of this Great Demon rapidly diminished until it completely disappeared.
It seemed that from beginning to end, it never realized that it would be beheaded by Qin Zheng here.
Even in the moment before its demise, its thoughts were still focused on not letting Qin Zheng escape.
Alas, it could no longer do anything about it.
Qin Zheng's chest rose and fell slightly, and as his lungs contracted, he exchanged a large amount of air with the outside world.
He could feel that this deer demon should be the limit of his current combat power.
If the opponent were any stronger, he might not have been able to slay it.
Qin Zheng stared at the massive deer demon corpse beneath him, took a few steps forward, and arrived beside the deer head. He drew his saber and dug out the demon core.
The demon core, emitting heat, fell into his palm, and at the same time, the Merit Scroll in his sea of consciousness trembled slightly.
【Item Discovered: Deer King Demon Core, can be refined, requires one jin of Merit, do you want to refine it?】
【Note: Can only be refined by Refining Soldiers - Grafting Technique】
Refining Soldiers.
Qin Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly.
Aside from Martial Arts and Talent, he now had one more skill: Refining Soldiers.
He immediately recited silently in his heart: "Refine!"
Humm!
The Merit Scroll trembled slightly, and one jin of Merit was deducted from it.
At the same time, a stream of information flooded into his mind.
The so-called Refining Soldiers is the method of refining weapons!
This is even rarer than Inner Strength, especially this "Grafting Technique" obtained by Qin Zheng.
This Refining Soldiers technique can enhance weapons without adding any other materials, using blood essence as the foundation!
The best blood essence to use is that of the Demon Clan!
Qin Zheng's eyes narrowed, and he raised the Ghost Head Saber in his hand, thrusting it into the body of the deer demon in front of him. At the same time, he started to circulate this Refining Soldiers technique.
Humm!
The Ghost Head Saber trembled, and then, as if it had gained a breath, it began to greedily absorb the blood essence within the massive deer demon corpse.
Streams of blood essence overflowed and coiled around the Ghost Head Saber, creating a rather shocking sight.
Shi Xinhuan.
The Grand General of the Geng Word Camp, the only Grand Master within Yong'an Prefecture.
Perished at the hands of Lingming Deer King.
When the Demon Slayers reached the peak of Cloud Purity Peak and saw the massive deer demon corpse inside Qingluan Sword Sect, as well as the body of Shi Xinhuan, no matter how shocked and disbelieving they were, they could only accept this fact.
This information quickly spread throughout Yong'an Prefecture and even the entire Qingzhou!
The demise of a Grand General who commanded one of the ten major armies was a major event that shook all of Qingzhou!
Various factions were shocked, cold, and curious, all waiting to see how this incident would ultimately unfold.
After all, a Grand General who governed an entire prefecture had perished at the hands of a Great Demon.
If the thunderous wrath did not descend, maintaining the dignity of the Demon Slayers, it was highly possible that other Great Demons would follow suit, constantly testing the bottom line of the Demon Slayers, which would be extremely unfavorable for the stability of Qingzhou.
However, just as this news spread, another piece of news also emerged.
That was that the Qingzhou Commander-in-Chief, Wei Wujiji, had newly accepted a direct disciple.
His name was Qin Zheng, and it was he who, in the face of danger, was ordered to go to Yong'an Prefecture, slaying the Lingming Deer King and a Blue Hill Fox Demon.
With one battle, he killed two Demon Sage Realm Great Demons, stabilizing the dangerous situation in Yong'an Prefecture.
At the same time, he also intimidated many Great Demons with ill intentions.
Moreover, some insightful people discovered that this direct disciple, who had just suppressed two Demon Sage Realm Great Demons in one battle, was the same person who had recently killed a member of the Quanyang Gao Clan!
In just a few months, he had advanced from the Battle Master Realm to the Demon Sage Realm of Demon Slaying!
Such a tremendous improvement, no wonder the Qingzhou Demon Slayer, despite offending the Quanyang Gao Clan, still wanted to protect him.
No wonder the Qingzhou Commander-in-Chief, Wei Wujiji, would accept him as his sixth direct disciple!
With such talent, as long as he didn't meet an untimely end, it was almost visible to the naked eye that a Martial Saint would likely be born on the land of Qingzhou in the near future!
A Martial Saint, a pillar of national defense!
The so-called "pillar of national defense" was thus derived!
Therefore, as these two pieces of news spread rapidly throughout Qingzhou, hidden undercurrents stirred within the entire region.
Yong'an Prefecture, Linyuan City.
When the news arrived, Wei Wujiji was in the inner courtyard, studying scriptures in the library.
After hearing the news of Shi Xinhuan's demise, he fell silent for a moment before sighing.
These Grand Generals outside were once his direct disciples!
In front of Wei Wujiji, his five direct disciples gathered, all with solemn expressions as they looked at him.
That Lingming Deer King not only killed Zhang Rujian but also boldly infiltrated the Qingluan Sword Sect.
It even joined forces with other Great Demons to harm Shi Xinhuan, and that fox demon continued to impersonate Shi Xinhuan, sending a request for aid to Linyuan City.
Such behavior was as if they didn't put the Demon Slayers in their eyes!
Simply too arrogant!
Fortunately, the little junior brother was quick and decisive, and as soon as he arrived, he saw through the fox demon's identity and took action to slay it.
He then immediately rushed to Cloud Purity Peak, Qingluan Sword Sect, and slew the Lingming Deer King.
Amidst this action, the group of demons was intimidated, and the dignity of the Demon Slayer was maintained.
However, the Commander-in-Chief of the county, General Wei Wujie, had fallen, and the subsequent actions were not as simple as killing those two Great Demons.
The Demon Slayer must take action again and, at the very least, clear out all the demons within Yong'an Prefecture!
Only by presenting a mountain of demon corpses and a sea of blood to the world can those demons understand the consequences of angering the Demon Slayer.
But at this moment, the Cangyuan Dragon Lord was about to ascend.
Currently, in Linyuan City, whether it was General Wei Wujie, the Commander-in-Chief, or Su Ziming, the first disciple, or Xiang Qingyu, the second disciple, none could leave.
The only ones capable of taking action were Fu Yu, the fourth disciple, and Xu Qingling, the fifth disciple.
"Lure the tiger away from the mountain."
After a moment of silence, General Wei Wujie slowly spoke.
The five direct disciples were not fools; upon hearing this, they immediately understood the meaning behind General Wei Wujie's words.
Xu Qingling's face turned grim, and he immediately spoke, "That old loach truly has such a big face, allowing so many Great Demons to take action for him?"
Whether it was the Four-Handed Ape King near Linyuan City, the Azure Scaled Fish King, the Lingming Deer King of Yong'an Prefecture, or the Azure Hill Fox Demon.
These Great Demons of the Demonic Sage Realm seemed to be continuously exerting themselves for the Dragon Lord's Dragon Transformation.
Exactly when did the demons become so united?
General Wei Wujie had yet to speak, but Senior Apprentice Brother Su Ziming spoke up, "Not only is the Cangyuan Dragon Lord himself..."
Speaking to this point, his face became somewhat solemn, and he continued, "It must be that a Great Saint of the Demon Clan in the Moshu Mountains has nodded and taken action!"
Upon hearing these words, several people's faces first became solemn, and then a rare look of panic appeared as they turned their gazes towards General Wei Wujie.
This Commander-in-Chief who suppressed a county nodded, acknowledging the words Su Ziming had just spoken.
"That Dragon Lord is just one step away from Dragon Transformation. If he succeeds, the Demon Clan will have another Great Saint."
"In this situation, naturally, other Great Saints of the Demon Clan will take action, both strengthening the Demon Clan's power and helping that old loach."
Upon receiving his acknowledgment, the several direct disciples also fell silent.
The Great Demons in Qingzhou alone had already exhausted them, and if those Great Saints of the Demon Clan took action, the result would be unimaginable, even to them.
However, at this moment, General Wei Wujie spoke again, "Don't worry, with the National Guardian Sage's deterrence, those Great Saints of the Demon Clan dare not take a single step into the Great Jin Territory."
"Even if they want to assist the Dragon Lord, at most, they will dispatch their Great Demons, enter Qingzhou, divert my attention, and allow the Dragon Lord to seize the opportunity to ascend."
Speaking to this point, he paused for a moment, then continued, "Qin Zheng swiftly killed two Great Demons, intimidating the other Great Demons, but he may not be able to intimidate that Great Saint of the Demon Clan who has other ideas."
After speaking, he looked up at Fu Yu and said, "I will write a letter, and you, Fu Yu, will go to the capital at the fastest speed to invite a high-level expert from the Great Martial Academy."
"This Dragon Lord cannot be kept any longer."
Then, he looked towards Xu Qingling and continued, "Qingling, you take a few deputy commanders with you to Yong'an Prefecture to assist Qin Zheng in stabilizing the situation."
"That Great Saint of the Demon Clan has taken action, and he will definitely not stop after the deaths of two Great Demons. There will definitely be more Great Demons entering."
"You tell Qin Zheng to prepare, and before the high-level expert from the capital's Great Martial Academy arrives, he may not be able to return."
"Also, notify the Jiazi Camp, the Yi Army, and the Bing Army to dispatch a portion of their forces to Yong'an Prefecture to clear out the demons there!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Yu and Xu Qingling immediately agreed and then left without hesitation.
The situation was urgent, and not even half a moment could be delayed!
In the study, Xiang Qingyu furrowed his brows, and after a few moments, he spoke, "Master, why won't you let me go out?"
Currently, the crisis in Qingzhou was just emerging, but he was still staying in Linyuan City, feeling like his strength had nowhere to go.
Although the Four-Handed Ape King was strong, but he also understood the limits, and there wouldn't be too much of a problem if Fu Yu and Xu Qingling went to respond.
If he and Su Ziming left Linyuan City and went to Yong'an Prefecture, the intimidating effect would definitely be greater!
Upon hearing this, General Wei Wujie looked at him, then stood up and walked out of the study.
At the same time, his voice slowly lingered, "You and Ziming prepare, and when the time is ripe, you will enter Qingzhou with me to slay demons!"
He kept these two strongest disciples for a reason, which was not to use them to intimidate the Four-Handed Ape King.
But to have the two of them participate in killing that Cangyuan Dragon Lord!
Upon hearing General Wei Wujie's words, Xiang Qingyu was first stunned and did not react.
"Go. If there are any injuries, don't show off, and quickly let the Master Sister help you heal."
At this moment, Su Ziming's voice sounded in his ear.
This made him suddenly realize.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
But in the end, he fell silent and followed several people out of the study.
Only one thought kept swirling in his mind.
Could it be that even the Master couldn't suppress that Dragon Lord?
