Chapter 352: The Rules of the Zhenmo Division

February 19, 2025

Gu Qingfeng didn't elaborate much to Jiang Nanfeng and the others. Instead, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he extracted all the blood from the Chaos Divine Elephant and dropped it into the deep pit.

In just a moment, the deep pit transformed into a blood-red lake.

Everyone understood that this blood-red lake was not ordinary; it was the blood of a Chaos Beast from the Saint King Realm, a terrifying creature capable of crushing mountains with a single drop of its blood.

The blood of a Chaos Beast of this caliber was undeniably precious.

Afterward, Gu Qingfeng proceeded to decompose the flesh and blood of the Chaos Beast, and the inner pill it had cultivated within its body was collected by him into the Shenhuang Cauldron.

Once he had finished decomposing all the flesh and blood of the Chaos Beast, Gu Qingfeng turned to Jiang Nanfeng and the others beside him and spoke.

"From this day forth, any defending soldier who is below the Divine Transformation Realm and slays ten demons of the same realm will be rewarded with a drop of diluted Chaos Beast blood.

If a Divine Transformation Realm soldier slays ten demons of the same realm, they will be rewarded with a liang of Chaos Beast flesh and blood. For those in the Dao Palace Realm who slay ten demons of the same realm, they will be rewarded with a jin of Chaos Beast flesh and blood!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed dramatically, their eyes filled with excitement.

Chaos Beast blood!

Chaos Beast flesh and blood!

These were treasures beyond compare.

Gu Qingfeng's decision to offer such precious rewards openly left them all delighted.

"We are forever grateful to Your Majesty!"

Jiang Nanfeng and the others immediately bowed respectfully, and Gu Qingfeng waved his hand.

"Go now."

"Yes!"

Jiang Nanfeng and the others bowed and retreated.

Gu Qingfeng acted swiftly because the soldiers defending Zhenyao Immortal City had made significant contributions. Despite the presence of the Trick God, the battlefield remained extremely dangerous.

With the Divine Martial soldiers charging into battle, Gu Qingfeng was not stingy with rewards.

While the Chaos Beast from the Saint King Realm was precious to other forces, in Gu Qingfeng's eyes, it was just another matter.

The Chaos Divine Elephant's body, comparable to a mountain, contained flesh and blood far exceeding a million jin. Even if he distributed it as rewards, it would last for a considerable period.

"Even if the Chaos Beast's flesh and blood run out, it's not a problem. We can always enter the Chaos again to replenish it."

Having broken through the Saint King Realm and achieved a minor success in the Primordial God-King Body, Gu Qingfeng had absolute confidence and control. He believed he could venture deep into the Chaos Starry Sky.

As long as he didn't face an existence on par with an Emperor, Gu Qingfeng had the courage to fight.

Even if he encountered an Emperor and was no match for them, he was confident in his ability to retreat unscathed.

Moreover, Emperors were rare.

Even if the Chaos Starry Sky held secrets, the existence of Emperors was still questionable.

If they did exist, their numbers were likely to be extremely limited.

Looking at the lake formed by the condensed blood of the Chaos Beast, Gu Qingfeng used his methods to create several small lakes and diverted a portion of the Chaos Beast blood into them.

Immediately after, he began the dilution process.

After all, the blood of a Chaos Beast from the Saint King Realm was not something anyone could withstand.

If a Dao Palace Realm cultivator were to come into contact with it, they would not experience a sudden surge in cultivation but would instead explode and perish.

Therefore, Gu Qingfeng decided to dilute the blood.

However, the concentration in each small lake varied.

Some were diluted tenfold, some fiftyfold, and some even a hundredfold.

As Gu Qingfeng had mentioned earlier, for those below the Divine Transformation Realm who slay ten demons of the same realm, the reward of a drop of diluted Chaos Beast blood was based on a hundredfold dilution.

Only by diluting the Chaos Beast blood to this extent could cultivators below the Divine Transformation Realm barely absorb and refine it. If the concentration were any higher, it would be unbearable.

"Chaos Beast!"

In the imperial palace, Gu Yang was startled by the news brought by his subordinates.

This news was not obtained through his subordinates' investigations but was sent by Gu Qingfeng himself.

Soon, Gu Yang realized the significance of the message, and a delighted smile appeared on his face.

"My father has slain a mature Chaos Divine Elephant, a top-tier beast rumored to rival the Saint King Realm. This beast is a treasure trove of resources, and it is a great opportunity for our Divine Martial Empire!"

Gu Qingfeng's message instructed a group of Gu family descendants to travel to Zhenyao Immortal City to refine their cultivation using the Chaos Beast blood.

At the same time, those who had made significant contributions in the imperial court, could also receive this blood as a reward.

As for the level of contribution required to obtain this opportunity, it was entirely up to Gu Yang's discretion.

Gu Yang was well aware of this.

This was the authority Gu Qingfeng had bestowed upon him.

At the same time, news spread that the flesh and blood of chaos beasts had appeared in Zhenyao Immortal City. Gu Yang believed that once this information got out, many other cultivators would voluntarily make their way there.

After all, according to the news, any cultivator who slays a corresponding number of demons and monsters on the battlefield of Zhenyao Immortal City would receive rewards related to the flesh and blood of chaos beasts.

For other cultivators, the flesh and blood of such high-level beasts are an irresistible temptation.

With this development, the pressure on the Divine Martial Empire could be greatly reduced.

As long as other cultivators from the Eastern Domain enter Zhenyao Immortal City, the pressure on the empire from the demons and monsters will naturally decrease significantly.

Moreover, the number of casualties can also be greatly reduced.

Just as Gu Yang had anticipated, when the opportunity in Zhenyao Immortal City spread, the entire Eastern Domain's cultivators were in an uproar. Many powerful cultivators from various sects and families could hardly contain their excitement and rushed to Zhenyao Immortal City.

Even some reclusive experts who had been in seclusion for years couldn't stay put any longer.

There was no choice.

The four words 'chaos beast' were already enticing enough.

And when the prefix 'Saint Wang Realm' was added before 'chaos beast', it became even more extraordinary.

Many cultivators who had been stuck at certain bottlenecks in their cultivation levels now wanted to obtain a piece of the chaos beast's blood and flesh.

After all, the flesh and blood of beasts at this level, even a tiny piece, were comparable to heavenly treasures.

Not to mention, according to the news, those who established outstanding contributions might even have the opportunity to cultivate in the Blood Lake.

This so-called Blood Lake was a lake formed by the blood of chaos beasts.

In a short time, a large number of cultivators headed towards Zhenyao Immortal City.

Jiang Nanfeng came to report.

"Your Majesty, in the past few days, a large number of cultivators have come to Zhenyao Immortal City. What should we do next, and we await your instructions!"

"For now, let's group these external cultivators together. As for the rules and order, it's up to your Zhenmo Army to establish and maintain them.

Additionally, various house transactions within Zhenyao Immortal City can be carried out one after another.

Over time, Zhenyao Immortal City will not only be a desolate and empty city but will gradually thrive and flourish!"

Gu Qingfeng smiled slightly smiled. With a mere sweep of his divine sense, he could perceive everything within Zhenyao Immortal City.

In the past, Zhenyao Immortal City had no external cultivators other than its soldiers. The vast city was desolate and empty, and all supplies were transported from the imperial capital.

But if Zhenyao Immortal City were transformed into a prosperous and majestic metropolis, many resources could circulate, and numerous resources could be shared.

Moreover, the newest, smallest, and most concise explanation is in Chapter 69 of the book, so please look for it there!

If Zhenyao Immortal City were opened, the city could continuously benefit the Divine Martial Empire in the future.

The benefits brought by a city of cultivators are not to be underestimated. Even if a cultivator entering the city is charged only one low-grade divine blood stone, once the number increases, it becomes an extremely frightening figure.

Of course—

It's impossible for Zhenyao Immortal City to charge any entry fees at the moment, but if cultivators coming to Zhenyao Immortal City require accommodation or various cultivation resources, as long as there's a demand, profits will naturally arise.

However, Gu Qingfeng couldn't be bothered to waste time dealing with these matters. It's better to leave everything to Jiang Nanfeng to handle.

This person's ability to serve as the commander of the Zhenmo Division is indeed commendable.

As it turned out, Gu Qingfeng's thoughts were correct.

Jiang Nanfeng's abilities were indeed remarkable. Soon, he came up with a solution.

However, the Zhenmo Army now faced another problem. With many cultivators, it was inevitable that there would be both good and bad elements. Some unruly and unyielding cultivators even openly defied the rules set by the Zhenmo Division, refusing to submit to their management.

If their strength were average, it would be tolerable. But for some top-tier Dao Palace Realm experts, even Jiang Nanfeng found them quite troublesome.

"Hmph, I came to Zhenyao Immortal City to help your Divine Martial Empire suppress demons and monsters. Now you want to charge for accommodation? Do you really think I'm easy to bully? Today, I'll stay right here, and what can you do about it?"

A middle-aged cultivator with a rugged face and a rebellious and violent demeanor sneered, not giving the Zhenmo Division members before him any attention.

As the commander, Jiang Nanfeng's expression was equally grim.

"This is the rule of Zhenmo Division..."

"What does your Zhenmo Division's rules have to do with me? I'm not even a member of your Zhenmo Division!" The middle-aged cultivator spoke with a mocking tone.

Seeing this, Jiang Nanfeng's expression grew even more unpleasant.

With countless cultivators witnessing this scene, if the Zhenmo Division couldn't resolve this issue, their authority would undoubtedly take a significant hit.

However, the problem was that the middle-aged cultivator before them was an elite powerhouse at the 9th level of the Dao Palace Realm, possessing considerable strength. Naturally, it was impossible to use large-scale lethal weapons within the city at this time.

But if that were the case, truly suppressing this opponent would not be as easy.

Just then, a terrifying pressure instantly swept across the entire Zhenyao Immortal City. Many cultivators, upon sensing this aura, had their faces change dramatically. The middle-aged cultivator, who had previously exuded a defiant demeanor, now showed signs of fear.

Before the opponent could even speak, their physical body exploded, as if crushed by an invisible palm.

This scene caused the other cultivators' hearts to tremble.

At this moment, those from the Zhenmo Division straightened their backs. Jiang Nanfeng looked around, her face cold and indifferent.

"I believe you've all heard the words of the Tai Shang Emperor. From now on, I hope you can follow the rules of our Zhenmo Division. Otherwise, not only you but even the forces backing you may not be able to withstand the wrath of that person!"

"Rest assured, Jiang, since I've come to Zhenyao Immortal City, I will naturally abide by the rules of the Zhenmo Division!" As Jiang Nanfeng's words fell, a half-saint cultivator immediately flattered with a servile smile.

Although Jiang Nanfeng was only a 3rd-level Dao Palace Realm cultivator, who could rival the power of Gu Qingfeng, an unparalleled supreme expert?

Even if Jiang Nanfeng was only a 3rd-level Dao Palace Realm cultivator, let alone an ordinary mortal with no cultivation, no one dared to offend them further.

Just as Jiang Nanfeng had said, if they truly angered that person, even the forces backing them might not be able to withstand their wrath.

At that time, even if they died, it would be in vain.

As such, no one was willing to risk their lives to provoke the rules of the Zhenmo Division.

Seeing this, Jiang Nanfeng was very satisfied and felt even more reverence and gratitude towards Gu Qingfeng.

If it weren't for Gu Qingfeng's intervention, it wouldn't have been so easy for the Zhenmo Division to suppress these cultivators.

With these cultivators now chastened, managing them in the future would be much more convenient.

On the other side, within the City Lord's Hall, Gu Qingfeng withdrew his divine sense.

By killing that cultivator, Gu Qingfeng intended to set an example, establishing the authority of the Zhenmo Division.

With so many cultivators entering Zhenyao Immortal City, it was inevitable that there would be some troublemakers. Dealing with these stubborn cultivators required the simplest and most brutal method.

The recent changes also proved that Gu Qingfeng's decision to be correct.

By directly killing a cultivator from afar, using their blood to warn the others, it was enough to deter these cultivators from further challenging the rules of the Zhenmo Division.
