Chapter 195 to 197: Seeking One's Own Demise

    

:Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!...made the illusory river even more imposing.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!The two originally un...In the mountains and forests.

Shen Changqing walked alone there, the dim surroundings did not cause the slightest ripple in his heart.

This is a mountain range in Nanyu Mansion, with many wild beasts. In the past, there were many hunters who entered the mountains to hunt.

But as more and more hunters who entered the mountains disappeared, eventually few dared to enter the mountains easily.

The locals also reported the news.

After the Demon Suppression Division sent exorcists to investigate, they searched thoroughly but found no trace of the demon. They then left without further action.

>

But still.

In the records of the Demon Suppression Division, there will still be corresponding entries.

“Though no trace of demons was found, there were still missing villagers. As a hunter, he was intimately familiar with the forest and even if he encountered a ferocious beast, he would have the skill to survive.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

It's understandable that one or two hunters might die accidentally, but if all the hunters died, that would be too far-fetched.

Walking through the forest, Shen Changqing looked back at the contents of the case file.

After having Xing Yi help him organize his case files, he left from Po Shan City and came here.

Based on my own understanding.

Shen Changqing was almost certain that there were monsters in this mountain.

What he needs to do now.

It's about finding all the hidden goblins.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The enhancement of divine powers entirely depends on these troublesome goblins.

At the same time.

Shen Changqing had no psychological burden about killing monsters.

Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

After all, judging from the case files, many ordinary people have already died at the hands of those demons. As a human, I've also done my part to eliminate harm for the people.

As for what the goblins think, that's none of my concern.

Some things.

There is no right or wrong, only differences in stance.

I am a human.

When doing things, I always stand from the perspective of humanity.

After surpassing the Grandmaster level, Shen Changqing had gradually reached a state of returning to simplicity and authenticity.

As long as one doesn't deliberately erupt with power, their entire life force remains dormant and doesn't reveal too many clues.

So.

When he was in the mountains, he was just like an ordinary person, there was no big difference.

The reason for doing this is also very simple.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Spirits seek good fortune and avoid misfortune.

If one's own strength is too great, those monsters would rather not make a move easily.

Only when disguised as an ordinary person will they attack.

Time flies.

It was getting dark again.

Although it wasn't pitch black, visibility was still difficult.

Of course.

So-called difficulties are all for ordinary people.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

In Shen Changqing's eyes, darkness and light were the same.

"Even the goblins should make a move now!"

He walked along the path, seeing a hint of chaos on either side, but his heart remained calm.

>

With the perception of a grandmaster.

Shen Changqing could be sure that there must be something hidden around him.

He didn't forcefully urge his soul power, so he couldn't pinpoint the spirit's location with complete accuracy.

Suddenly.

A faint ripple came from behind.

Although the fluctuation was faint, Shen Changqing felt it from within, a pure spiritual force.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Here it is! Let me know if you have anything else I can translate for you.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He thought to himself.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

His footsteps also came to a halt.

The scene before him remained unchanged. That surge of psychic energy was, to the Grandmaster, no different from a child playing house.

The hidden sprites want to let themselves fall into the environment, but there is no possibility at all.

This is the time.

In Shen Changqing's vision, two scenes appeared altogether.

The first scene is a normal one.

The second scene, however, was completely different.

He just hesitated for a moment, then walked toward the scene depicted in the second image.

As he walked slowly, something that looked like an ordinary leopard jumped out from the shadows, staring at Shen Changqing who was walking step by step. Its emerald eyes held a strange coldness.

The blood of the living, it is filled with endless temptation!

The leopard spoke in human words, pacing around Shen Changqing.

It was not afraid of being seen by the other party, because it knew that the person in front of it had already entered a dreamlike state.

However.

The leopard was unaware that everything it did was being seen through by the other party.

Listening to the leopard's words.

Shen Changqing could be 100% certain that the leopard in front of him was a monster.

Just as he was about to make a move, a single sentence stopped him in his tracks.

"No."

"He can't be eaten yet. It's the ancestor's birthday, so it's a good opportunity to bring this person back and offer him as a gift to the ancestor. There will surely be many benefits then."

The leopard shook its head and mumbled to itself.

That's it.

Its emerald eyes gazed deeply into the other, then suppressed the urge to savor its blood.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Although blood food is tempting, the Ancestor's longevity is even more important.

Thinking about this.

The leopard led the way, using its psychic power to lure the others to follow.

"Ancestor"

Shen Changqing frowned.

Wow, by the sound of it, this isn't just finding a single monster. It sounds more like we might have stumbled upon a whole lair of them.

If that's really the case, then we've made a killing.

Now Star Indication has evolved into divine power. He's not even sure if a single point of divine power will still allow his divine powers to increase by one level as before.

After all.

Having obtained this panel for so long, Shen Changqing also understands that the more powerful martial arts are, the greater the consumption will be.

If you could find the goblin's lair and harvest a large wave of divine power, that would be the most stable option.

Thinking about this.

Then Shen Changqing decided to keep a low profile and follow the other party to see the lair of the strange creature.

As for whether there would be any danger inside, he didn't have a single worry.

>

Even if the spirits are powerful.

Can anything be stronger than the demon clan

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Unless it's a Great Demon level existence that steps in, then it wouldn't be possible for anyone to be their own opponent.

If the spirit clan truly possessed such power, they wouldn't be acting secretly to this day. They would have long been appearing openly in the eyes of mortals, just like the demon clan.

All those hiding in the shadows, no matter their motives, have one thing in common.

This text should be translated into English. Please remember that I can only translate the text within the tags, not the tags themselves.

That is, insufficient strength.

Anyone with real ability wouldn't hide in the shadows.

Calm down.

Shen Changqing, just like an ordinary person, followed the leopard slowly and leisurely toward the depths of the mountains.

The leopard, too, seemed afraid he couldn't keep up, so it didn't move very quickly.

About half an hour.

Suddenly, the view ahead opened up considerably.

A temple that looked like it had been standing for many years was there.

In front of the temple.

There are cages, one by one, and in each cage, a solitary individual is imprisoned.

Some humans were thin as dry twigs, others had dull eyes, and some had panicked expressions, constantly pounding on their cages and shouting loudly.

"Let me out!"

"Don't kill me, don't kill me—"

Apart from that.

On the ground lay numerous human skeletons, trampled upon by beasts. Some beasts sat on the bones, while others lay there, gazing at the humans in their cages. Their emerald-green eyes often flickered with cruel intent.

The scene was terrifying, like a hellish underworld.

Shen Changqing's heart turned cold.

At a quick glance, there were over a hundred skeletons on the ground, clearly indicating that many humans had died here.

There are also hundreds of human beings imprisoned in the cages.

As soon as the leopard returned, all sorts of goblins rushed forward, speaking in human tongues.

"King Leopard, why did you take so long to come back You only brought back one human. Your efficiency is too low."

The goblin who speaks.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This is a fox that walks upright.

On the other party, Shen Changqing seemed to see the fox from Fengqiu Mountain.

But a serious comparison

This fox's aura is not as powerful as the one on Mount Phoenix Hill.

There is no doubt.

This is also a goblin.

Shen Changqing's face was expressionless, as if he had been completely mystified. However, secretly, he was already sizing up everything around him.

Those beasts.

Actually, they aren't truly beasts. Each one is a spirit creature that has gained sentience.

At a glance.

The number of goblins is already in the dozens.

Upon seeing this.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

His chest rose and fell slightly, forcing down the excitement within.

dozens of monsters, this is truly a bumper harvest!

However.

Shen Changqing didn't immediately take action. He still needed to find out more about the situation, waiting for the right time to strike and capture them all.

Upon hearing this.

The Leopard King's face was displeased: "Fox King, how many humans did you bring back this time Fewer and fewer humans are entering the Sahara. Bringing back even one is already a success."

"Hehe."

The Fox King let out a disdainful laugh.

He pointed to a cage behind him, where dozens of humanoids were imprisoned.

"Look, this is my achievement."

"Where did you get so many human!"

A look of human-like astonishment appeared on the leopard king's face.

Tens of people tribes.

That's quite a number!

When going up the mountain under normal circumstances, it's already good to have one or two people. How could there be a possibility of grabbing dozens of people at once

In a moment.

The Leopard King was as if he had thought of something.

"You dared to leave the mountains on your own and go out to capture humans"

"What's wrong with that"

"The Patriarch has ordered us not to leave the mountain without permission. There are many powerful people in the Daqin Demon Suppression Division. If we are discovered, we will surely die!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Leopard King's face darkened.

Upon hearing this.

>

The Fox King scoffed, unconcerned. “What is the Demon Suppression Division Over the years, we've captured countless human beings. How could they possibly know our whereabouts”

Now that the Qin Dynasty is struggling to keep itself afloat, even if they detect something amiss, what does it matter

In the past, humans hunted creatures like us. Now that we hunt humans, it's simply the cycle of nature turning. Even if they are from the Demon Suppression Division, I am not afraid.

After hearing the Fox King's words.

Other demons all chimed in with loud agreement.

Seeing that everyone looked to the other party, the leopard king had nothing more to say.

In its heart, it thought that what the Fox King had said wasn't wrong.

Shake head.

The leopard king, with Shen Changqing in tow, opened an empty cage and threw him inside.

The other cages were already full, so we had to use new ones.

After being imprisoned.

Dispel the illusion.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

A look of timely terror appeared on Shen Changqing's face. He stared at the Leopard Demon in front of him as if he had seen something terrifying, staggering backward in retreat.

Only after the leopard had left did he find a place to sit down.

Although there was still fear on his face, it had subsided somewhat, as if he were forcing himself to calm down.

That's it.

Even the goblins ignored it.

Anyway, for them, what waves could a human imprisoned in a cage possibly make

“Let me out.”

"Please don't kill me, Your Majesties, please don't kill me!"

The ears were filled with the pleas of the common people.

Shen Changqing silently observed the surroundings.

Though there are many different kinds of goblins, almost no two races are alike.

From here.

>

He probably also understands something.

That is to say, for any race, wanting a monster to appear is a very difficult thing.

And from the nicknames given to the leopard and fox just now, one can also hear something.

The king of leopards.

.

>

Both are clearly kings within their own race.

However.

This king certainly isn't the ruler of all leopard and fox clans in the world, but possibly just the leader of those within this mountain range.

After all, the strength of that fox king was not as good as that fox on Phoenix Hill, at least on the surface.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

If the other party is the king of all fox clans, then what identity would that fox on Phoenix Hill be

"When will the Ancestor come out of seclusion"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"It's about time. I heard that for this Patriarch's 300th birthday, powerful figures at the level of an ancestor have come from several other mountain ranges."

“Hmph, there are people coming from other mountain ranges too. That's quite face-saving indeed.”

"Who said it wasn't, after all, the Patriarch's strength is well-known throughout the mountains of Nan You Fu, few don't know about it."

Those mischievous creatures talked freely and fearlessly, not at all worried about being overheard by others.

The imprisoned humans heard these words, their faces paling even further.

Shen Changqing remained impassive.

Only when hearing about other mountains did my heart stir a little.

It seems that the so-called ancestor is just the leader of mountain spirits in one range. There are still other strange creatures coming from other ranges in Nanyu Mansion.

"It is unknown what level of power the Ancestor possesses."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Ancestral Master.

Just by hearing it, you can tell it's not simple.

However.

From the strength of the Leopard King and others, at best they have just entered the Innate Realm. The one called Ancestor by the other party is most likely a demon with the strength of a Grandmaster.

Of course, it's also possible that it has surpassed the realm of a master.

>

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But no matter which realm, Shen Changqing's heart was not too worried.

Ordinary Master.

The peak of the grandmaster.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The pinnacle of the master's achievement.

One system, two systems, and the grandmasters that come after.

Though a Master is just one realm away from a Grandmaster, there are actually several realms separating them when you look closer.

The gap between each small realm is not so easy to make up for in terms of strength.

Perhaps it's not very obvious when you look at it this way.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

But if we classify using the level of demons, it's very clear.

extremely eerie.

Low-level demons.

Intermediate demon.

High-level demons.

Shen Changqing is now considered a high-level demon, and among those of the same realm, he's quite formidable.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Even if the so-called ancestor was a realm or two higher than the monsters in front of him, he still found them utterly insignificant.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Come on!"

The more the merrier!

"As the saying goes, 'clear water does not interfere with river water,' but since you have attacked the human race first, then don't blame me!"

Behind his eyes of terror, a flash of coldness passed.

Up to this point.

Shen Changqing has already understood.

The Demon Suppression Division originally wanted to talk with the monster, to see if there was a possibility of cooperation. This possibility no longer exists.

The goblin eats people.

It's not just that individual goblins have this phenomenon, but all goblins feed on humans.

Just as humans view pigs and sheep as food, these intelligent spirits also look upon humans in much the same way.

This is a placeholder for text that has been removed or deleted.

That way.

How could there be any possibility of cooperation between the two sides

The clan of spirits, if their strength is insufficient, that's all there is to it. Once they have enough strength, they will surely become a great enemy of the human race in an instant.

Join hands.

It's simply a joke.

"The threat of the monsters must be nipped in the bud. This is a good opportunity to fully assess their strength. If they are weak, then I will inform Dongfang Zhao and order the complete extermination of all monsters."

>

"If one is powerful, then one must be clean and upright in their dealings."

Shen Changqing pondered.

He never really agreed with it, and one day teaming up with the monsters.

Now that this has happened, it has only strengthened my resolve.

Thinking about this.

Shen Changqing settled his mind, and for the moment, he didn't make any moves.

Not long.

Yet again, evil spirits bewitch the human race.

The cage that was originally meant to hold only him now has over a dozen people in it.

Time flies.

That's all.

Shen Changqing stopped observing the surroundings. Instead, he leaned against the side, closing his eyes for a nap.

It has been about an hour.

He suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head towards a certain direction. There, an undeniable aura was revealed.

"A strong one has arrived!"

>

Once one reaches this realm, those who can be called strong by it naturally won't have weak strength.

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

Shen Changqing could clearly feel it.

That aura.

Almost equivalent to a master at the peak of martial arts.

Please provide me with the text you'd like translated. I'm ready!

As his gaze swept across the scene, a group of strange creatures appeared. Among them, in the very center, sat a middle-aged man in a blue robe, his face impassive, perched atop a ferocious tiger.

"Shapeshift!"

Upon seeing the middle-aged man in blue robes, Shen Changqing's heart skipped a beat.

The aura he sensed was clearly emanating from the other person.

Look again at the scene of that being surrounded by many goblins.

The identity of the middle-aged man in blue robes is self-evident.

What a goblin!

A spirit that can already transform into a human form!

>

Shen Changqing pondered inwardly, but he still had no intention of making a move.

He's waiting.

> I'll wait for a suitable opportunity.

This is the time.

Among the new group of monsters, the one at the front was already shouting loudly.

“Northern Mountain's Patriarch Bei Yang has arrived, here to congratulate Qing Yuan Patriarch on his 300th birthday!”

His voice trailed off.

A cheerful voice came from within the temple.

>

"So it's Patriarch Beiyang who has arrived, this old man has failed to welcome you far enough!"

As his voice trailed off, an elderly man in a yellow robe walked out. He had a sly smile on his face.

Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

At first glance.

>

No one would think this was a monster, but rather that the other party was simply human.

>

"Another monster at the peak of a master!"

Shen Changqing's eyes flickered.

So-called "elders" are actually powerful spirits at the peak of their kind, comparable to a guardian in the outside world.

Even if this garrison commander was just the weakest of the bunch.

But——

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

From here, it can be seen that the strength of the monster side is already formidable.

After Patriarch Qingyuan came out, Patriarch Beiyang, who was sitting on the back of the tiger, also drifted away from the tiger's back and landed at the front of the team. A smile appeared on his face, which had been expressionless before.

"Congratulations, Patriarch Qingyuan. Looking at your appearance, Patriarch Qingyuan, are you about to break through"

"It was just luck, whether I can break through is still a question."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The ancestor of Qingyuan shook his head, but the smile on his face became even more brilliant.

Upon hearing this.

Beiyang Patriarch had a look of envy on his face: "If Qingyuan Patriarch makes another breakthrough, he will be the peak of the human race's masters, and in the Qin Dynasty, he would almost be considered top-tier."

>

"By then, even the Ancestor Qiyuan might be able to catch and eat a couple of the Guardians,"

>

That's all for now.

Beiyang's ancestor’s crimson tongue licked his lips, completely destroying his original human air and revealing the cunning nature of a demon.

>

Qingyuan Patriarch's eyes flashed, then he shook his head: "It wouldn't be so easy to beguile the Town Guardian. However, this old man is also very curious, what kind of person is the Town Guardian"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Compared to this, demons are really hard to eat. That stench is truly awful.

“Demons and filth are naturally abhorrent, but humans are different.”

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

The Patriarch Beiyang let out a strange, eerie chuckle.

He shifted his gaze from Patriarch Qingyuan and focused on the human trapped within the cage.

Gloomy eyes.

Let those humans feel great terror in their hearts.

Drew back his gaze.

Beiyang Ancestor moved aside to look into the distance, Qingyuan Ancestor did the same.

At this point.

A new group of monsters has arrived.

At the same time, there were loud sounds echoing all around.

“The ancestor of the Black Abyss Mountain Range, Hei Ku, has arrived to offer congratulations to Patriarch Qingyuan on his 300th birthday!”

"Greetings from the Lixiong Mountains! The ancestor of the Lixiong clan has come to personally congratulate Patriarch Qingyuan on his 300th birthday!"

Another group of monsters also arrived.

Both sides had a considerable number of monsters, with dozens on each side. In the middle was a person being carried by someone.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

An old ancestor from the Black Cave Mountains, a man in his middle years dressed in black robes with a cold and gloomy face.

In one corner of the Lixiong Mountains, there lived an ancestor named Lixiong. He was an old man who wore a bloody robe and had a ferocious and ugly face.

Just like the previous two transformed monsters, these two arriving transformed monsters were all at the peak level of a Grandmaster.

Shen Changqing couldn't help but wonder.

Isn't it that only after reaching the pinnacle of a Grandmaster can a spirit creature transform into a human form

As for the Black Cave Mountains and Fierce Ridge Mountains, he had also heard of them.

That was Nanyu Mansion, a few fairly large mountain ranges.

It seems like it.

The four shape-shifting monsters before them were each as imposing as a mountain range, led by powerful yokai bosses.

"The peak of the Four-Headed Masters's strange beings, the rest are innate strange beings, and there are almost hundreds of them together!"

Shen Changqing's gaze slowly moved from those strange creatures.

With others as cover, he wasn't afraid of being discovered.

Hundreds of innate mystical creatures.

Four Great Sects Peak Demon.

Although not necessarily all the spirits of the four mountain ranges, they definitely occupy a portion of them.

"If you were to kill them all, the divine power gained would surely be considerable!"

Shen Changqing's heart burned with passion.

But he still didn't move, planning to see if any other goblins would come.

If that's the case, I might as well take them all down today.

But if there isn't, then there's no need to wait.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing never expected that by simply coming to a mountain range seeking one or two monsters, he would stumble upon such a great opportunity.

Here's the translation:> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

In front of the temple.

Hundreds of strange creatures, dancing wildly like a horde of demons.

The human beings trapped inside the cage trembled like sheep and lambs awaiting slaughter. Some people were so terrified that they fainted.

Beiyang Ancestor's eerie gaze swept over those human beings one by one.

Finally, he looked back at Qingyuan's ancestor.

"Qingyuan Ancestor, are you planning to treat all these human beings as blood food, or do you intend to use them as tools of faith"

>

“A mere few hundred people, how much faith can they offer It's better to share it with everyone. When my strength surpasses all limits and I break through this Qingyuan Mountain Range, I will directly enter the Nan You Prefecture and rule over cities and lands.”

At that time, no matter how much faith power is needed, it's not a problem.

Qingyuan Ancestor sneered.

It's just the power of faith, a few hundred people can't make much difference.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

On the contrary.

He is very moved by humans outside the Qingyuan Mountains.

The content within the tags " " is:

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Alas, the Demonic Suppression Division's power is simply too formidable. With my current abilities, if I were to brazenly appear before them, I would likely be met with a swift and merciless demise.

At this point.

>

Beiyang Ancestor said, “Let’s talk about whether the Demon Suppression Division has noticed our existence. Fenqiu Ancestor from Mount Fenqiu disappeared and is nowhere to be found. I wonder if he's already dead.”

“Fengqiu Ancestor, what's that supposed to be”

The ancestor Li Xiao sneered.

He has only just begun to refine the horizontal bones, and his inner dantian hasn't even formed, let alone transforming into a human form.

It's only because there are no powerful beings in Mount Fengqiu that it can be revered as an ancestor.

Maybe it was killed by some old ancestor who passed by. That wouldn't be strange either.

Upon hearing this.

The ancestor of Beiyang didn't respond.

Qingyuan's Ancestor nodded: "Lord Li Xun's guess is not unreasonable. If the Demon Suppression Division really noticed our existence, they would definitely not remain idle."

It is extraordinary in itself that ordinary beasts should give birth to creatures of intellect.

If you were a person from the Demon Suppression Division and discovered this situation, you would definitely conduct a thorough search.

But so far.

The fact that no one from the Town Demon Division came to investigate Qingyuan Mountain Range is enough to prove that they are completely unaware of its existence.

Here's the English translation of your content, keeping the HTML tags as you requested:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Upon seeing this.

The other party's analysis is not unreasonable.

"Well, today is this old man's three hundredth birthday. I won't dwell on the unpleasant things. Since all of you are here, it shows respect to me. The human blood meal has been prepared. Please come inside with me and enjoy it."

“Alright then, let's just trouble Ancestor Qingyuan for this!”

"Haha, you know, it's been a while since I had a good feast of blood."

"Yes, yes, the Demon Suppression Division is so heavily guarded. I dare not act rashly and cause trouble. Hmph, one day, my ancestor will surely slaughter a city to have a good feast!"

Several shape-shifting demons said this, then they all walked toward the inside of the temple.

In a cage.

Shen Changqing listened to the conversation of several goblins, his face calm.

Faith!

These mischievous creatures' actions are indeed similar to his past life memories. They plunder humans, and it's not simply about enjoying blood as sustenance; they also collect faith for a purpose.

As for the role faith can play, that is also quite clear.

If you've never eaten pork, you must have at least seen a pig run.

In the era of shared past life information, Shen Changqing was very clear that faith was a being that could be deified according to rumors.

In this world.

There are also legends of immortals.

It's just like the land and mountain gods enshrined in temples, they are actually a kind of immortal being.

But.

Whether land deities really exist is still a question.

But if faith truly exists, those statues worshipped day and night by humans might just one day become real immortals.

And looking from Mount Fengqiu and the current Qingyuan mountain range.

All spirits reside in temples, and their purpose is obvious.

These sprites.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

All of them want to replace the mountain gods and land deities in temples, so they can be worshipped by the people and enhance their own power through faith.

"Faith sealed the god!"

"This isn't just about having faith. There must also be a certain trigger or corresponding technique involved. If simply having faith were enough, then the Demon Suppression Division wouldn't have a single record of it."

Shen Changqing's eyes flickered.

For how many years heaven and earth have existed, no one knows. Since ancient times, humans have worshipped mountain gods and land deities, but the Demon Suppression Division has never recorded anything about this.

Therefore, it can be seen.

Simply obtaining faith is not enough to truly achieve apotheosis.

Among them, there are some key points as well.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Qingyuan the Ancient Ancestor is now 300 years old. Fengqiu Ancestor on Fengqiu Mountain also only gained sentience over 300 years ago. This also indirectly proves my previous guess, that the appearance of monsters is very likely related to the descent of demons.”

There's no coincidence in a good story.

However, he didn't believe that things could have been such a coincidence.

Shen Changqing looked up at the sky. The dim night sky, in his eyes, was as bright as day.

The imperial edict of the East has been issued.

The Demon Suppression Division once speculated that demons and fiends came from outside the heavens.

“At the beginning, heaven and earth were complete and perfect, so there were no demons or evils. It was only after heaven and earth became flawed that demons appeared in the world.”

“Heaven and Earth are without any gaps, which can also be metaphorically compared to Heaven and Earth being in a completely sealed state. However, if Heaven and Earth have gaps, it means that the previously completely sealed Heaven and Earth has now appeared with an opening.”

The demonic clan could enter through this opening, perhaps other things could as well.

Shen Changqing's thoughts raced in his mind.

He was fairly certain.

If the Demon Suppression Bureau's initial speculation is correct, then after the arrival of demons and monsters, it must have attracted a kind of energy that did not originally exist in the world.

It is precisely because of this energy that ordinary beasts can be born with intelligence, becoming existences like spirits.

"It's just speculation, I'll have to ask for specifics."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Shen Changqing's face gradually turned cold and stern.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Who do you ask

Of course that goes without saying.

It is now.

After those several shape-shifting monsters entered the temple, not long after, Qingyuan Ancestor's voice rang out.

“Children, take those bloody offerings and wash them clean, then bring them all in.”

"Yes!"

Those goblins, upon hearing this, all bowed their heads in response.

Instantly, they turned to look at the human within the cage.

For a moment.

The imprisoned humans were all pale with fright, screaming loudly.

"No—"

"Don't eat me!"

“Let me go, I have an eighty-year-old mother. Let me go!”

Facing the crowd's pleas for mercy, the monster remained unmoved. A cruel smile played on its ferocious face as it directly opened the cage and violently dragged people out of it.

At this time.

What was once a prison, for many has become a lifeline.

Some people cling to the iron bars for dear life, refusing to be taken away.

> On the other side.

The prison cell where Shen Changqing was held was also opened.

Those imprisoned humans were all terrified and retreated to a corner, directly exposing Shen Changqing who was sitting on the ground.

It's you!

The Leopard King recognized this man. He was the one he had lured here himself.

Although it was curious, the person in front of it didn't seem afraid of it. But it didn't think too much about it.

Only a humanoid leopard stood up, its thick claws reaching straight for the person in front of it.

Sharp claws glinted with a cold light, as if they could easily tear through human skin.

When the paw landed on his shoulder, Shen Changqing's body trembled slightly.

In an instant.

The claw has broken.

The sound of the bones cracking was particularly grating.

"Oh!"

The Leopard King roared in pain and couldn't help but step back.

Shen Changqing stood up and walked step by step toward the opened cage.

outside.

This is a continuation of the previous paragraph.

The leopard king covered one of his front paws with the other, a grimace of pain etched across his ferocious face. His emerald eyes held both terror and murderous intent as they fixed on the approaching figure.

“A powerful being has infiltrated, quickly, kill him!”

It did not hesitate.

At the moment Shen Changqing approached, he immediately drew back and shouted loudly.

Just now.

He hadn't even seen clearly before the other party interrupted one of his paws. The beastly instinct to avoid harm made the Leopard King realize that the opponent was not someone he could contend with.

There is no need for the leopard king to roar.

The commotion here also caught the attention of other spirits.

Almost immediately.

Then, a great many goblins surrounded him.

Each of them, with their emerald eyes, stared intently at the person in the middle, as if ready to pounce and tear them to shreds.

"Bold of you to mix in here!"

“Come, once you're here, don't even think about leaving. Just taste what a warrior is like.”

"A warrior's flesh is more chewy, it not only tastes good but also increases one's skill."

One by one, the grotesque faces wore cruel smiles.

Warrior!

That was precious blood food.

Especially those who can injure the King of Beasts, their qi and blood are extraordinary.

They were already fantasizing, imagining the benefits they would reap if they consumed the blood of such a powerful warrior.

Even if it can't increase strength.

Have a taste; that's good too.

"You demons, harming the human race, this officer, as the Commander of Nan You Prefecture, absolutely cannot stand idly by. Today, I will slay you all and restore peace and order to Nan You Prefecture!"

Shen Changqing looked at the monsters surrounding him, took a step forward, and then said in a deep voice.

Marshal of Nanyu Prefecture!

Upon hearing the name, those mischievous spirits first showed a look of confusion, then as if they had remembered something, their expressions changed drastically.

Suddenly.

Then a goblin roared loudly, "I won't be intimidated by him! How could the Town Guardian of Nanyu come here Kill him!"

"Yes, that's right. The Guardian of Nan You Prefecture wouldn't come here."

Those frightened goblins also reacted.

When he looked at Shen Changqing again, there was less fear in his eyes and more anger.

The next moment.

Ten or so goblins lunged at him.

“Seeking one’s own death!”

Shen Changqing shook his head slightly.

With a flick of his right hand, two fingers thrust forward, unleashing a formidable blast of zhenqi. In an instant, it obliterated a monstrous creature, reducing it to a bloody pulp.

The physical body shattered.

Flesh exploded.

Blood splattered onto the other monsters, causing the scene to fall silent instantly.

But.

The other monsters were momentarily startled and couldn't react, but that didn't mean he would stop.

Only to see Shen Changqing strolling leisurely in the courtyard, his divine yang shattering heaven finger striking out. Every finger he landed had a monster exploding open.
