undation itself.Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!At this time, it's rare for the Demon Suppression Division of Southern Profound Palace to prepare for war with Wanfo Sect, resul...The long blade plunged into the celestial thunder, its brilliant radiance blinding.

It didn't last long.

There was a deafening roar, shaking the heavens and earth, instantly scattering the thunderbolts.

The heavenly thunder has dissipated.

The black clouds also disappeared.

Finally.

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

A long blade fell from the sky, and the stone floor beneath it sank effortlessly.

The exposed edge of the knife, half submerged in the air, displayed veins that resembled lightning. Its original dark color had transformed into a gleaming silver.

“You all get lost!”

Gong Ye Heng pressed down on the excitement surging within him, then looked at the onlookers around him, and in a deep voice, roared.

Upon hearing this.

Although those people were reluctant, they quietly retreated.

Shen Changqing looked at the long blade, a vague sense of connection stirring in his heart.

Immediately, he turned his head to look at Gong Yihe.

"Sir, are the divine soldiers officially finished forging"

"Just one more step."

“Last step”

Although the divine weapon is forged, it lacks a corresponding hilt. Elder Shen can wait for a moment.

Gongye Heng took out the things he had prepared long ago, and then walked towards the long knife.

Seeing this.

Shen Changqing remained inactive for the time being.

After passing the tribulation, everything that followed became much simpler.

This is a simple text string. There are no HTML tags within it to translate.

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

It only took half an hour for Gongye Heng to successfully forge the divine weapon.

But.

He did not draw his long sword without permission, but instead stepped back.

"Every Spirit Soldier has its own master. If others attempt to use it without permission, they will only suffer backlash from the weapon's spirit. During the forging of the Spirit Soldiers, Elder Shen, you infused your own blood into them, so you are now their master."

Hearing Gongye Heng's words, Shen Changqing readily understood and walked forward.

When the寬厚 grasped the hilt of the blade, a familiar feeling surged through him.

That feeling.

It was like running into an old friend after a long absence.

I didn't push too hard.

He effortlessly drew the long sword.

The blade was a gleaming silver, etched with patterns resembling bolts of lightning. In the center of the blade, many of these patterns intertwined to form the shape of a ferocious crimson beast.

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

"What a good knife!"

Looking at the knife in his hand, Shen Changqing nodded in satisfaction.

Although he hadn't tried the power of the longsword, simply holding the hilt, he could feel a surging force from it.

Such power.

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

Although he was far inferior compared to himself, if placed among ordinary warriors, his strength would already be comparable to that of a master.

Please note that I have only translated the content within the > tags. The HTML tags themselves remain unchanged.

Gongye Heng said: "This sword has been infused with Elder Shen's blood essence, and its material is extraordinary. Now that it has successfully emerged from the heavenly tribulation forging, its rank can be said to be among the best spiritual weapons."

Especially the divine weapons, even without a master's control, they can unleash immense power.

In my opinion, he's already at the level of a master.

Upon hearing this.

Gong Yuezhi on the side looked terrified.

This is an example of text enclosed in HTML tags.

A blade, is comparable to a master-level expert. That's not overly surprising.

>

It takes years of dedicated practice for an ordinary person to achieve this state.

Today—

A divine weapon is no less powerful than a warrior who has cultivated for many years. It's impossible not to be astonished by it.

However.

On second thought, he could accept it.

After all, the main material of the long sword is the horn of the red phosphorus beast, and the red phosphorus itself is a powerful monster that has almost reached the peak of a master.

Not to mention.

The longsword also absorbed the power of Shen Changqing's essence blood.

Gong Yuezhi had not forgotten.

When the essence blood appears, the powerful aura that erupts is truly awe-inspiring.

This is the time.

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

Gong Yihe again said, "Divine weapons appearing in the world should have names. Elder Shen, could you name this divine weapon"

"Name"

Shen Changqing looked at the long knife in his hand, his eyes flickering.

After a long time.

He slowly said, "When someone is born with a bolt of lightning striking them, that's called being struck by heaven!"

Lightning strike!

As soon as the words left his lips, the long blade trembled gently, emitting a melodious clang that resembled both a pleasant melody and the roar of a ferocious beast.

Next.

Under the gazes of the three, the thunderous patterns on the long blade twisted and then converged into two characters: Tian Ji.

"Good!"

Seeing this, Shen Changqing was even more delighted.

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

The strength of the spiritual soldiers was far greater than he had imagined.

Gongye Heng said, "Sky Strike is indeed a good name. This sword is now a high-grade spiritual weapon. An ordinary scabbard wouldn't suit its status. Old man, I happened to have received a scabbard once, so I'll give it to Elder Shen!"

>

That's all I have to say.

He turned and walked inside.

A moment later.

Gong Yihe walked out again, with a black scabbard in his hand.

The scabbard was pitch black, as if forged from stone.

“This scabbard is forged from black stone, capable of nurturing the power of divine weapons on its own. It is incredibly hard and cannot be destroyed by ordinary divine weapons, making it perfect for housing a spirit weapon.”

Then, thank you, sir!

Shen Changqing did not decline.

He originally had a scabbard, but as Gongye Heng said, an ordinary scabbard couldn't contain a spiritual soldier.

The spirit soldiers were exceptionally sharp and fierce.

An ordinary scabbard would likely be cut through at first contact.

The longsword returned to its scabbard, the size just right.

Seeing this, Gong Yihe said, “In order to forge the Heavenly Strike, there are still quite a few remaining from the two red phosphorus horns…”

"The rest, as per our original agreement, naturally belongs to you, sir."

Shen Changqing spoke directly.

He didn't mean to return the Crimson Horn back, as there was a prior agreement between them.

And moreover.

Please note that the content within "" is not translated. Only the text between them is translated to English. The HTML tags are preserved as they are.

After the sky strike was formed, I was very satisfied with it.

In this case.

Shen Changqing had no possibility of regretting any further.

Not to mention.

The other party also presented a sword scabbard.

"As an old blacksmith, I've spent many years forging divine weapons. There aren't many that truly reach the spiritual weapon stage. And a top-grade spiritual weapon like this Heavenstrike is unprecedented in history."

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

Gong Yihe had a satisfied smile on his old face.

As a craftsman, there is nothing more fulfilling than being able to forge a top-tier divine weapon with one's own hands.

Immediately.

He went on to say: "Any spirit weapon can grow stronger. In the future, Elder Shen will wield this divine weapon to slay powerful foes, and by using the blood of those enemies to nourish it, there is a chance to enhance its power."

However, even at its current strength, there are few divine weapons in the world today that can compare to it.

Killing enemies increases.

It can grow.

Gong Yeheng's words gave Shen Changqing a deeper understanding of the Lingbing.

I have to say.

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

The advantages of spiritual troops are indeed numerous.

Beyond their spiritual abilities, they are already powerful warriors who can continue to grow stronger.

In this way.

Then he needn't worry, in the future when his own strength grows strong enough, Tianji will always lag behind him.

>

After leaving the side hall, Shen Changqing carried the divine weapon back.

Then came a thunderbolt.

This trip back to Bashan City has been another blessing in disguise.

Then.

He was the one who brought Xing Yi over.

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

"Senior Shen."

"Manager Xing, I hope that with Po Shan City as the center, any movements within a radius of fifty miles will be under the control of Tian Cha Wei. There must be no omissions whatsoever."

At the same time, any abnormal situations must be reported to me immediately. Is there anything unclear

And then she fell silent.

Xing Yi nodded: "This matter is not difficult. Elder Shen is worried that the demonic tribe will directly attack the city of Shatushan"

"To catch a thief, you must catch the king. In a situation where we can directly break through the Mountain City, do you think the demon clan would waste their energy and slowly eat it away step by step"

Shen Changqing asked back.

If he were a member of the demon clan, he would definitely use all his power to break through the mountain city.

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

Once the city of Poshan is transformed into a dead city, the remaining cities will have little resistance.

Upon hearing this.

Xing Yi also understands this matter.

Then.

Shen Changqing thought of some things and asked again, "I want to ask, does the broken mountain city have a magic mirror"

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

"Mirror, mirror"

Xing Yi was obviously stunned for a moment before he reacted.

“Is the Magic Mirror that Elder Shen mentioned the one in front of the Demon Sealing Tower in the capital city”

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

Although he was from Nanyou Prefecture, he also had a fair understanding of the situation in the capital.

Looking into the mirror.

Of course, one is also aware of its existence.

Please note: The HTML tag "

" was preserved as requested. Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

"That's right."

"The magic mirror is particularly precious, and only the capital can possess it. The Broken Mountain City doesn't have such a treasure for the time being."

Xing Yi shook his head.

After finishing his words, he sighed again.

“I understand Elder Shen's meaning. If the Magic Mirror could be mass-produced, there would be no possibility of demons infiltrating the cities. However, the issue with the Magic Mirror has plagued the Demon Suppression Division for many years and remains unsolved.”

That is why demons can freely mix into every city and town.

Upon the magic mirror.

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

Demons have nowhere to hide.

Shen Changqing was a little disappointed, but he soon let it go.

...is also.

>

Since the magic mirror was so precious, it wasn't strange at all that it was missing from Po Shan City. He had only asked casually about it.

“If the demonic race wants to attack Pushan City, they might not launch a direct assault. Instead, they are more likely to infiltrate the city and then strike against the Demon Suppression Division.”

But in doing so, the number of casualties among the city's inhabitants would be considerable.

If it were possible to intercept all demons and monsters outside the city walls, that would be best!

That's all.

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

Shen Changqing didn't wait for Xing Yi's reply and fell into thought by himself.

He knew.

Xing Yi said that there's nothing they could do about this.

Otherwise, the Demon Suppression Bureau would have implemented it long ago.

As expected.

After hearing Shen Changqing's words, the steward fell silent.

The other party's guess, in fact, had already been considered by the Demon Suppression Division.

But it didn't work.

>

Demons are rampant and difficult to guard against. Besides the magic mirror which can reveal a demon's true form, all other methods are ineffective.

Looking at the contemplative Shen Changqing.

Xing Yi cupped his hands: "This one will immediately instruct the Heavenly Watch to increase security measures. Elder Shen, if anything happens, feel free to summon me again. I shall take my leave first!"

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing awoke from his contemplation.

"Well, General Manager Xing, please go ahead with your work."

“Farewell!”

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

Xing Yi turned and left.

In the small courtyard, soon only Shen Changqing remained, and the scene returned to its original tranquility.

“What methods can be used to prevent demons from infiltrating How can we prevent demons from entering”

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

He sat there, his mind already wandering far away.

Demons are hard to deal with.

A large part of the reason is that demons are elusive and ordinary people find it hard to detect them.

Eerie and ghostly apparitions, intangible and unseen.

Malevolent spirits, capable of possessing humans.

After reaching the Asura level, having a physical body made it much harder to hide oneself.

But——

Once you reach the demon realm, especially mid-level demons, it becomes much harder to defend against them.

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

Intermediate demon.

Ever-changing.

At this level, demons theoretically can transform into the appearance of any person.

That would be truly difficult to defend against.

Just like Wang Mubai, the other party had a hidden aura of evil. At first glance, one would only think they were a human and not a demon.

Besides.

They are the demon clan, and now they have even stronger methods of concealment.

In times past.

Unless it reaches the middle-grade demon level, it cannot change shapes at will. At the same time, its aura of demonic energy is extremely powerful. As long as it enters a certain range, it will be sensed by the strong warriors of the Demon Suppression Division.

But from the battle at the capital on.

Everything has changed.

A multitude of terrifying and eerie creatures, along with demons, have infiltrated the capital city's borders. Even without revealing their true forms, they manage to remain completely undetectable, concealing any trace of sinister energy.

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

In this way.

Then it becomes even harder to deal with.

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

If we discard the use of demonic and covert tactics, then the Demon Suppression Division's difficulty in dealing with the demon clan would be directly reduced by a level.

Here is the translated text, keeping the HTML tags:

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

"Evil spirits to the extreme Yin!"

Although ordinary sunlight has no effect on demons, it's because the sunlight isn't strong enough that it can't pose a threat to them.

>

"The same principle applies: if something truly righteous and yang exists, it would actually have a certain restraining effect on demons."

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

Shen Changqing rubbed his chin.

When it comes to things that are truly yang, there are actually many of them.

However.

What's really left visible is very little.

“Unyielding and masculine...”

Shen Changqing's eyes flickered.

He suddenly reached out, and as his skin split open, a drop of blood squeezed out.

In the golden blood, there lies a surging power.

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

Thunder flashed.

All evil spirits avoid ease.

“When it comes to the most masculine and yang energy, my cultivation of the Divine Thunder Golden Body's qi and blood already counts as the most yang thing there is. Not only is my qi and blood surging, but it also contains the power of heavenly thunder.”

Qi and blood are vital.

Heaven's thunder arrives in the yang.

When the two forces combined, Shen Changqing couldn't think of anything in the world that was more vigorous and powerful than his own Qi and Blood.

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

When he had some guesses in his mind, he couldn't sit still.

Left the small courtyard.

First, I went to the Zhanyao Hall and exchanged some resources using my identity.

As for contributions...

He then shifted all the blame onto Ji Tianlu.

After all.

This HTML tag is used to mark the end of a paragraph.

No matter how much I say, I'm still working for Po Shan City. There's no reason why my accomplishments should be consumed without any rewards, and I have to bear the consequences myself.

That's it.

Even the people from the Demon Slayer Hall didn't dare to say anything.

Right now, Ji Tianlu is in seclusion. Inside the Demon Suppression Division, Shen Changqing is the biggest one.

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

For a little bit of resource credit, to offend the other party is clearly unnecessary.

Two days.

Shen Changqing stayed in the courtyard and didn't take a single step outside.

>

During that time, Xing Yi also came over every day to report on the situation.

Even though he didn't leave the house one step, he knew everything about the news.

As Shen Changqing had thought.

The actions of the demon clan were initially merely probing. In the next two days, however, their offensive greatly intensified.

Please note that the original text you provided was just an empty HTML tag.

Almost every hour, new information comes in.

Either they slayed countless demons, or a demon slayer met their demise.

That's it.

He didn't pay too much attention.

Currently, everything that is happening is still within my control.

“Master Lin, now demons are wreaking havoc within Yongzhou City. The power of my Demon Suppression Division is limited. As a local sect in Yongzhou City, the Zhenyue Sect should lend a hand, after all, slaying demons is the responsibility of all Qin people!”

Jiang Zuo looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, his face calm.

Zhen Yue Pai!

Nanyou Mansion's major factions have masters of the Grandmaster level sitting in, although their overall strength is not as good as Zhenmosis, they are still formidable in the Jianghu.

And the person before him was Lin Yue, the headmaster of Zhenyue sect.

Here is your translated text:

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

For the current generation, he is the only Grandmaster-level expert in the Zhen Yue School.

As soon as the words left his mouth.

Lin Yue did not speak, but an elder of the Zhenyue Sect spoke up.

"Lord Jiang, you may not know this, but my Yue Sect has long since ceased to be involved in the affairs of the Jianghu. We have never interfered in matters within the Jianghu, and I'm afraid that what happened in Yongzhou City has fallen short of your high expectations!"

Upon hearing this.

Jiang Zuo's eyes turned cold.

"Is this your personal response, or the reply of the entire Zhenyue Sect"

"This..."

The elder's face changed.

He thought it was the response from the Zhenyue faction, but when he met Jiang Zuo's gaze, a chill ran down his spine inexplicably.

It is now.

Lin Yue, who had been silent all along, finally spoke in a calm voice: "Lord Jiang, please don't misunderstand. Although our Zhenyue Sect prefers to stay out of the world, in this chaotic time of demonic disturbances, we certainly shouldn't just stand by and watch."

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

Alas, due to a war decades ago, the Zhen Yue Sect has yet to recover its former glory.

Here is the translation:

In such a large sect, there are few who can truly be considered powerful. Even I, though still capable, bear hidden injuries. Wanting to take action is one thing, but I lack the strength.

Jiang Zuo's eyes turned cold once again.

Lin Yue pretended not to see, and once again changed the subject.

“Of course, Lord Jiang is right. We are all Qin people and share the responsibility of dealing with demons.”

He paused for a moment.

Then.

He looked at the elder of Zhenyue Sect.

"Elder Liu, please take a look at which disciples in the sect are eligible for battle. Make arrangements and have them represent our Zhenyue Sect to accompany Lord Jiang to Yongzhou City to eliminate demons."

Although our Mount Yue Sect has suffered heavy losses, we cannot allow demons to wreak havoc.

"Yes!"

Elder Liu nodded.

>

Then, he turned to look at Jiang Zuo.

"Sir Jiang, please!"

"The contributions of the Zhenyue School, my Demonic Suppression Division will not forget!"

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

Jiang Zuo gave Lin Yue a deep look, then strode away.

If the other party gives it to someone, then one should just take it.

I saw him leave.

In the main hall.

Another elder furrowed his brow: "Sect Leader, won't offending the Demon Suppression Division cause us trouble"

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

Just now Lin Yue's actions were no different from slapping someone in the face.

Although the Zhenyue Sect is powerful, compared to the Demon Suppression Division, it is still far inferior.

Upon hearing this.

Lin Yue remained calm: "The Broken Mountain City Demon Division is barely holding on now. They have no strength left to deal with our Mount Yue sect. Besides losing some power at the hands of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, demonic creatures are also taking advantage of the situation."

Next, even if they could withstand the onslaught of the demon clan, they themselves would be severely injured.

Revenge

He wasn't worried at all.

If it were before the Demon Suppression Division's defeat at the hands of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect, then Lin Yue was absolutely someone one wouldn't dare to offend lightly.

But times have changed.

His defeat at the hands of the Myriad Buddha Sect made him suddenly realize that the Demon Suppression Division wasn't invincible after all.

In the world.

The Demon Suppression Division is not truly a monopoly.

There was first the clan of demons, then the Eternal Life Alliance, and now there is the current Myriad Buddha Sect.

One by one, forces that opposed the Demon Suppression Division appeared, causing Lin Yue's fear of the Demon Suppression Division to lessen considerably.

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

Then.

He seemed to have thought of something, his face turning cold: "A hundred years ago, the Demon Suppression Division came to our Yue Sect and forcefully took away our sect's martial arts. The then-master died of grief because of this. This grudge is one we will eventually settle."

When Lin Yue spoke of this matter, some elders' faces subtly changed.

That's right.

>

The Zhen Yue Pai and the Zhen Mo Si originally had a grudge against each other.

>

As the might of Zhen Mo Si grows stronger, all members of Zhen Yue Pai dare not bring this matter up anymore.

But don't mention it.

This does not mean forgetting hatred.

On the contrary.

This matter is an indelible black spot for Zhen Yue Pai.

"What the Sect Leader said makes sense, but the demon race will always be our enemy. If the Demon Suppression Office falls to the demons, our Zhanyue sect will also find it hard to escape this disaster!"

There are still elders who hold a worried attitude towards the current situation.

When he finished speaking.

Lin Yue shook his head: "The strength of the Demon Suppression Division is formidable, it may not necessarily be wiped out by demons. Besides, even if Po Shan City is destroyed, we can just form an alliance with the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect."

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

The Demon Suppression Division can deal with demons, so it shouldn't be a problem for the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect.

That battle.

That made Lin Yue truly see the might of the Wanfo Sect.

To be precise, it should be the immense power of Mahāī.

The opponent is capable of subduing the heads of the three Demon Suppression Envoys with their own power. Their strength is truly unprecedented throughout history.

Even a single, dilapidated mountain city could suppress demons and evil disturbances. Then how could the Wanfo Sect, with three against one, possibly be unable to deal with demons

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

Now that there's an escape route.

Only then did he dare to not give Jiang Zuo face.

Otherwise.

Given the situation where "lips and teeth perish together," even if the Demon Suppression Division had suffered heavy losses, Lin Yue might not have acted so directly.

Upon hearing this.

Those elders of the Zhen Yue Sect were all silent.

Since the head of their family already had a plan, they no longer had to worry about it.

The Demon Suppression Division has been suppressing the martial arts world for over three hundred years, and all the major factions have long held great resentment towards this.

Previously, there was no strength.

So I just swallowed my anger and kept quiet.

If one truly possessed the power to resist the Demon Suppression Division, many sects would not hesitate and would definitely join forces to overthrow it.

Now.

That is the kind of strength that the Buddhist sect possesses.

That battle truly boosted the morale of the Jianghu masters of Nanyu Mansion.

Since the news spread, many neutral sects have directly leaned towards the Wanfo Sect.

Compared to the beginning.

The overall strength of the Buddhist Sect has more than doubled.

> On the other side.

Jiang Zuo then led those abandoned disciples of the Zhen Yue Sect towards Yongzhou City.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!d enlightenment.As long as they don't reach the level of Shen Wang, the Tian Wu clan still has a chance.“To want to destroy my Tianwu clan is nothing but a delusional fantasy!” Qiu Xing roared, althou...
