Chapter 523: Demon Territory (2 in 1)

This kind of injury won’t kill the Flame Demon. The two halves of the Flame Demon’s body quickly wiggled. As numerous worms grew out of the cut, the lava-like blood floated out of the two halves and was about to merge.

“Want to merge?” The Zhanmadao in Qian Jin’s hand shone. It moved rapidly in Qian Jin’s hand like the carving knife of an artist. Qian Jin’s blade was moving so fast that it looked like a lightning.

Crack… crack… crack…

The Flame Demon was separated into pieces. Its arms and legs were all cut off and the Magic Core that was enveloped by lava finally showed itself.

This was the Flame Demon’s true self. Qian Jin put away his blade and tried to grab the Magic Core.

Squeak! An ear-piercing noise sounded as the lava around the Magic Core started to wiggle….. small arms…… small legs…… small head…

A body was formed around the Magic Core and it was just a small version of the Flame Demon. However, it was growing at a fast pace.

Although it would require a lot of energy to ditch the old body and form a new one, it was better than being dead.

The Flame Demon already made up its mind. Right after his body formed, he was going to rush toward the opening of the volcano and jump into the lava. By then, it should be safe.

“What to run?” Qian Jin grabbed onto this new Flame Demon that was only about the size of a palm and squeezed the lava around the Magic Core forcefully.

The lava around the Magic Core was the Flame Demon’s consciousness. As long as the lava was gone, the only thing that would be left would be a Magic Core and not a Flame Demon.

Squeak! Squeak!

The Flame Demon let out a series of screams. It was really scared and confused. It was in the form of lava and even iron gloves would be melted. “Isn’t this person scared of the heat?” it thought.

“So hot! Heart of Earthly Fire! Move and absorb all of it!” Qian Jin shouted as he used his Forging Breathing Technique. The Warrior Heart that was providing Qian Jin with power suddenly started moving aggressively as it sucked the heat from the surroundings greedily.

Boom…

Qian Jin felt like his Heart of Earthly Fire was shaking so violently that it felt like there was an earthquake. The scream of the Flame Demon was getting more and more high-pitched. “Too scary… I’m being sucked to death…” it thought.

Most of the heat energy around the Magic Core was being squeezed out by Qian Jin and a portion of it was consumed by the Heart of Earthly Fire. Soon, a red-hot Magic Core was in his hand.

Died… High-Level Demon Beast…

Qian Jin had been only able to look up at the High-level Demon Beasts. But now, one of them died under Qian Jin’s hands.

“Flame Demon…” Qian Jin couldn’t believe it! He looked at the Magic Core in his hand and thought, “I killed a Flame Demon and got its Magic Core…”

“[Kun]… I can learn the [Kun] Fighting Technique now!” Qian Jin withdrew his [Ultra Fake Soul]. He felt a dizziness as this technique used up a lot more warrior power than others. He was only in a short battle, but his warrior power was depleting already.

“Three Warrior Hearts are powerful, but they also bring a lot of issues…” Qian Jin put away the Magic Core and murmured. “I have more explosive power, but I can’t last for too long. I don’t have enough Warrior Power and it is a lethal issue.”

“You do have the strength to take down a Flame Demon.”

Enlak looked at the Magic Core in Qian Jin’s hand as he nodded. No surprise could be seen on him as it felt like he knew Qian Jin was capable of it.

“This is the [Kun] Fighting Technique you wanted.”

Enlak threw a thick notebook at Qian Jin. It didn’t just contain the [Kun] Fighting Technique but also all the instructions on how to practice and train. It even pointed out a few flaws in the technique.

These flaws won’t kill the practitioner of the technique, but they would put the practitioner at a disadvantage.

Besides these flaws, Enlak wrote down information on how these flaws could be avoided. Also, he wrote down ways that the practitioner could use these flaws to make the opponents think that there was a good opportunity to strike.

Completely recreating and analyzing the [Kun] Fighting Technique in such a short time… terrifying was the only suitable word to describe it. “What? You are not leaving yet?” Enlak smiled at Qian Jin. “Do you think that you can defeat a Rat King because you defeated a Flame Demon?”

Qian Jin shook his head. “Was that a joke? Are they the same? A Rat King mastered all four elemental magic spells and its movement speed was very fast. With the help of the wind-elemental magic, I can’t even chase after it with [Innumerable Shadow].”

What about its disadvantage? There was a huge one! Its physical damage wasn’t as high as High-level Demon Beasts.

But the problem was that the Rat King didn’t need to fight anyone physically. After the four-elemental magic spells, it would turn a chaotic space into a quiet one.

“I’m going.” Qian Jin suddenly paused his steps and turned around. “I will try to defeat the Rat King soon.”

Enlak laughed, “I will be waiting.”

After walking out of Enlak’s place, Qian Jin walked into Blake’s Blacksmith Shop.

When Blake saw Qian Jin’s appearance, he knocked his pipe on the furnace and said, “Throw the Magic Core into the furnace and continue forging with the Forging Breathing Technique.”

After the command, the old blacksmith went back to smoking.

Qian Jin did exactly what Blake told him to. After throwing the Magic Core into the furnace, the fire inside of it suddenly shot up for at least two meters high. It almost burned Qian Jin’s eyebrows.

“God damn!” Qian Jin picked up a hammer and zapped his mouth. After he threw a piece of iron into the furnace, it got red and hot in just a few seconds. Qian Jin quickly took out the iron that was about to be turned into a liquid with a pair of tongs and started to use the Eighteen Blade Elevating Strikes.

The heat energy filled the yard and the Forging Breathing Technique started to consume the heat in the yard like a greedy wolf.

“Could it be that the second Warrior Heart is about to become a Golden Warrior Heart?” Qian Jin thought as he continued to forge. Before this moment, the Heart of Earthly Fire hadn’t changed at all, it had only absorbed a lot of heat energy.

“Ah, Heart of Earthly Fire, how can you become a Golden Warrior Heart?”

Qian Jin sat on his bed as he stared at his hands powerlessly. There was a lot of fire energy stored in the Magic Core of the Flame Demon, but the Heart of Earthly Fire didn’t change at all after consuming a part of it. “Could it be that it needs to eat the entire Magic Core?”

No one was around to answer Qian Jin’s question. Even if Uncle Blake was by his side, Qian Jin would think that he would have only one reply – go forge!

“Whatever, I gained a lot of energy already.” Qian Jin got off of his bed and walked out of the room. “Not much progress can be obtained if I stay here longer. Looks like the [Kun] Fighting Technique is much easier than Eighteen Blade Elevating Strike and [Innumerable Shadows]. However, it is still not as easy as [Ultra-Fake Soul].”

“Cech, I will win next time!”

Duren Burg’s unwilling shouts resonated in the area and even the walls couldn’t stop them.

Qian Jin stepped into the yard and looked at everyone who was boring at waiting and already started to practice with each other. He laughed, “Are you guys ready?”

“What do you think?” Duren Burg smiled back at Qian Jin. “I didn’t waste much time.”

The special gravity-changing magic conductors had shocking effects and everyone was sleeping on them these days. Cech Flet had already entered an accumulation stage. As long as he had the next awakening, the power that his bloodline would exert would be powerful. He was likely to get above level 1 Soul-Power Warrior.

“Qian Jin.” Bhang Wusheng walked up with a strong bandit behind him. “Your Zhanmadao is too famous. Change your weapon,” he said.

After two shadows flew over, Qian Jin raised his hands and grabbed onto them. They were two huge hammers, and each one was bigger than a war drum. Just by looking at them, each one weighted at least 1,000 kilograms.

Qian Jin zapped his mouth. “These must be the weapons of Behemoths. Are they Warrior Weapons too? Too bad they are only level 3.”

Bhang Wusheng laughed. “Just use them for now. At least they are big, so they won’t be cut in half easily by even level 10 Warrior Weapons.”

Qian Jin waved the hammers around as he said, “That is true. There are benefits to big sizes.”

“Then my spear…”

“You are not famous enough.” Cech Flet who was friendly toward others was mean towards Duren Burg. He said, “No one would pay attention to little figures.”

“Little figures?” Duren Burg raised his voice and said, “You are saying that I am a small character?”

Cech Felt looked at Duren Burg calmly and said, “Anyone who can’t even defeat me is a small figure.”

“Yuck!” Duren Burg spat on the ground as he replied, “When I get my next awakening, I will beat you so hard that Qian Jin won’t even recognize you. You will become an ugly one! You will get to know my power then.”

Qian Jin shook his head at this exchange. Cech Flet rarely talked, but his words were powerful. Even Duren Burg who was the talkative type didn’t have a good come back.

“You can win against me in practices.” Cech Flet said after some thinking, “I have a 70% chance of winning if we are in a life or death fight. If it was yesterday…”

Bhang Wusheng was surprised by Cech Flet’s words. He felt like this Fallen Angel Bloodline Warrior should have a 90% chance of winning.

Duren Burg nodded as well. He thought about it for a while and said, “But if we are on the same level, I would have a higher chance of winning.”

This time, even Lucifer Lucy nodded. Duren Burg currently had one trump card – poison. Cech Flet’s bloodline didn’t have much special power and he only had one Demon Eye of Destruction. He could only use it for a little while and he couldn’t use it too frequently, otherwise, he would go blind.

“Too bad that our strength won’t be equal.” Cech Flet slowly raised his right hand and a pair of black wings opened behind him. The powerful aura expanded around him and a huge shadow slowly appeared behind him.

Soul-Power! Black hair, black wings, huge body and a perfect physique. With a strange blade in its hand, Lucifer’s Fallen Angel Warrior Soul appeared behind Cech Flet.

The handsome face on the Warrior Soul’s body looked like Cech Flet and it was emitting a majestic presence. Its long black hair was fluttering in the air and its closed eyes had a mysterious and ancient aura to them.

A mysterious golden heraldry shone on its forehead, and it looked very mystic.

“This… Soul-Power!” Even Duren Burg screamed. This handsome Cech Flet’s awakening speed was just too fast!

Lucifer Lucy sighed. It looks like emotions could stimulate the bloodline power. Because this mixed-blood was thinking of Princess Eunala, he activated his bloodline again before entering the Demon Territory.

Powerful potential… Lucifer Lucy didn’t expect Cech Flet to have so much potential. This was the Warrior Soul of one of the Ultimate Bloodlines in the world. It was far stronger than the Warrior Souls of other bloodlines. Was Qian Jin more powerful?

Or was Cech Flet more powerful? Bhang Wusheng was thinking of the same thing.

“I will become the strongest warrior.” Cech Felt said as he looked at Qian Jin. “I will take Uncle Qian Cheng out of that damn Qian Family.”

Qian Jin zapped his mouth as he looked at Cech Flet who got powerful overnight. This was the power of bloodline power! They might be far behind, but they could catch up or even surpass you in just one night easily. “Between Cech and I, who is stronger?” Qian Jin thought.

The answer can only be known after a fight. In the meantime, Qian Jin estimated his chance of winning.

Duren Burg! Qian Jin looked at this Hydra and thought, “This smoker is weaker than me now, but who knows about tomorrow?”

“I can’t loosen up. With these genius warriors around me, I can’t any take time off!” Qian Jin clenched his fist and thought, “I don’t have bloodline power, so I have to use hard work to make up for it! If I loosen up, I will be surpassed by them by a large margin!”

“Bloodline, I need to surpassed Bloodline Warriors!” Qian Jin took a deep breath. He believed that the era of Bloodline Warriors would end in his hands.

“Qian Jin, you can use [Avatar] anytime.” Bhang Wusheng reminded. “That ring can expand as well. Even if your finger is as thick as your thigh, it won’t break.”

Qian Jin nodded his head, he wasn’t surprised. He was at least a Forge Grandmaster who understood runes. As soon as he touched the ring, he knew it had such features. With the right materials, Qian Jin was confident that he could make the same one.

…

“Is everyone ready?” Lucifer Lucy walked in front of everyone as she announced, “Then follow me, the current princess and future empress, and let’s move out!”

“I need you to steal something for me.” Bhang Wusheng’s voice sounded in Qian Jin’s ear. “Lucifer Lucy will tell you what it is.”

Qian Jin wanted to ask this question. “Is the battle between the royal demons fierce? If Lucifer Lucy dies…” He soon realized that if Lucifer Lucy died, her “retinues” won’t live long either.

In the propaganda of the Zence Empire, the demons ate humans and their own kinds. Black mountains and water were everywhere, and the demons consumed bark and wore animal skins. They were just a bunch of savages that were not hygienic.

Only the people who interacted with the demons knew that they had their own orders and civilizations.

They liked to wear fancy clothes, they liked to make delicious foods, and they liked building nice housings, and they liked to trade with each other properly.

Except for the skin colors, languages, and some culture as well as habits, there were a lot of similarities between the humans and the demons.

If one had to pick out the differences, the seven main species of demons were all special in their own ways. Belia Demons were lazy, and their combat abilities were the weakest among the seven species. However, due to their reproductive ability, they had a lot of demons. It was common to see twins and triplets. Instead, seeing one child per birth was uncommon.

With curly sheep-like horns and bodies covered with yellow hairs, they could be seen anywhere in the Demon Territory.

Mamen Demons were the greediest demons, but they also had the highest combat abilities.

All seven species of demons were special in their own ways. Although most humans had these differences as well, they weren’t as obvious.

For example, most Belia Demons would rest and take vacations when they had enough money to get by. Even if they were offered a lot of money to do some work, they don’t take it.

They were so lazy that they won’t work if they just had enough money for tomorrow’s meal.

Mamen Demons were the complete opposites. They were extremely greedy. More than half of the thieves and bandits in the Lucifer Empire were Mamen Demons.

Qian Jin was riding on a horse and he was wearing a set of black metal armor. His appearance was a mix-blood between the Mamen Demon and Lucifer Demon. Pride and haughtiness could be seen from his face, and it felt like he believed that he was the strongest demon in the world.

Lucifer Demons were the haughtiest demons. Almost every Lucifer Demon believed that other demons weren’t on their level, including their fellow Lucifer Demons

Haughtiness was in their bones. If there were gods in the world, they would act disdainfully towards the gods as well.

Whenever there was a war, the Demon King who was essentially the emperor would have a headache thinking about these three species of demons.

Belia Demons were just lazy. They would only arrive at the required locations on time and never early. If there weren’t military provisions that execute the late arrivers, the Belia Demons would probably show up after the war was finished for a year.

Mamen Demons. This powerful clan of demons would do anything for profit. They even dared to betray the Demon King for money. Even if there were gods in the world, they would be willing to betray the gods if the profits were high enough.

Lucifer Demons were also a pain in the ass for others. These demons didn’t think other demons were good enough. They would never cooperate with other demons and they would only ask others to cooperate with them.

Although marriages between species were rare, they still existed. It was not so rare to see mix-blood demons around.

Qian Jin’s identity was a mix-blood between a Lucifer Demon and a Mamen Demon. This identity would explain why he couldn’t activate his bloodline and was only an ordinary demon warrior.

Dual-Bloodline? In most cases, that meant that neither bloodline could be awakened. Only the most powerful king of the Demon, the current Demon King, activated both of his bloodlines.

“The city up ahead is Supreme City.” Lucifer pointed at the city not too far away and explained. The defense walls that were more than ten meters tall had a lot of huge mechanical crossbows that were loaded. The arrows on them could easily kill a Demon Extinguisher or even a Soul-Power Warrior.

Of course, these arrows would have a hard time hitting the warriors who had Warrior Hearts. Unless the warriors with Warrior Hearts were tangled up and weren’t focused, they could easily sense the danger and dodge ahead of time.

Even though that was the case, these weapons were still powerful. If two warriors were fighting, these weapons could easily target one warrior. That warrior would have to split his attention and he or she would be put at an instant disadvantage and potentially killed.

There were a few Belia Demon Guards who were wearing light leather armor and holding spears. They only looked at the demons and people who were walking in and out of the city. They were even too lazy to examine merchant caravans.

Lucifer Lucy even felt a headache looking at these demons. She wasn’t sure why these demons were so lazy. It was easy money if they just walked up and examined the merchant caravans since the merchants would always give them big tips for easy access. If a Mamen Demon was here, he would even scam the underwear off an ordinary demon.

“Change of shift!”

Another team of guards showed up. With black armor and sharp blades, they pushed the Belia Demons who were all leaning against the defense wall.

The Mamen Demons were all at least 180 centimeters tall. Their blue skins were like crystals and their red hair was also a key feature.

These Mamen Demons were all excited as greed flashed in their eyes. Soon, their eyes landed on Qian Jin’s group.
