A young man in China wields twin swords—one to sever souls, the other to slay evil. Though a bit lacking in morals, he’s not entirely beyond redemption.
With his half-demon heritage, he carve...
"My father?"
Wind Chime couldn't believe it.
When Feng Xing died, his soul fragments exploded all over the ground, making the demon race stronger and stronger over the years.
It can be said that Fengxing bears most of the responsibility for the current rampant spread of the demon race.
However, things usually have two sides, and so far we have only seen the negative impact.
The exact effects of those soul fragments are still not fully understood by the spiritual master community.
One of the possible consequences is that it could lead to ordinary people in this world possessing spiritual power.
Ruo Tinghan nodded and said in a deep voice:
"Although there were quite a few people last year, only tens of thousands of those tens of millions of test takers possessed spiritual power."
"But something must have happened since then that has caused ordinary people in this world to possess spiritual power."
As he spoke, he looked at the wind chimes, and their eyes met.
"It's very likely that it's due to the fragments of Windwalker's soul."
"However, the Ling Shu Pavilion is still investigating this matter, and the exact cause is still uncertain, but..."
Fengling smiled and replied:
"But whatever the reason, this is a great benefit to the spiritual master community."
Because of the limited number of Spirit Masters and the difficulty in training them, Spirit Masters have always been few and far between.
In times of peace, things are fine, but in the past year, the demon race has been appearing frequently, and as early as last year, there was a clear shortage of spiritual masters.
Although many people were recruited last year, most of those new recruits need several years of training; otherwise, they would just be sending their lives to the demon race.
At this moment, Ruo Qingyan, who was standing next to her, suddenly said:
"But... with so many people, we can't possibly accept them all, can we? We'll probably have to filter out the vast majority of them."
The number of new students this year is a staggering eight million, even surpassing the total number of spiritual masters in China...
That's just how outrageous it is.
Even if the number of spiritual masters in China were divided equally among the hundred schools of spiritual masters, each school would still need to receive tens of thousands of people.
"This is just the first batch of freshmen. Next year, the year after, there will be national exams every year."
If you hear the cold, deep voice say:
"After discovering this, the Ling Shu Pavilion conducted a random survey of ordinary people in society... called the Random Survey of Spirit Possession."
"Through a survey of tens of thousands of samples across various age groups, it was found that among people over 40 years old, 10% were possessed by spirits. That means one in ten ordinary people was given spiritual power."
"Those aged 30-40 who are possessed by spirits account for 39%!"
"The number of people aged 20-30 who are possessed by spirits has reached 62%!"
"And those under 18..."
Ruo Tinghan paused for a moment:
"More than 85%!"
!!
Everyone listened to these words in shock, but this was not the end of it!
Ruo Tinghan continued:
"Newborns...98%!"
!!
Feng Ling and Ruo Qingyan exchanged a shocked glance, then looked at Ruo Tinghan in disbelief.
Wow!
Blood Princess beside her also exclaimed in shock, her expression strange as she said:
"Wouldn't that mean everyone would be a Spirit Master? Spirit Masters would be everywhere?"
She imagined the scene and gave a disgusted look, as if she had swallowed a fly:
"This world is unbearable to live in..."
The corpse wrapped in wine exclaimed excitedly:
"This is more interesting! Hahaha! Only in this way can the Feng family's rule appear even more powerful! Hahaha!"
Ruo Qingyan said in a deep voice:
"This is definitely not a good thing."
"Um?"
Blood Princess glanced at her and said with a smile:
"What, are you afraid someone will steal your position as the Holy Maiden? Hahaha~"
Blood Princess would take every opportunity to insult Ruo Qingyan, after all, she was her rival in love!
The wind chime shook its head:
"Although everyone now possesses spiritual power, not everyone is powerful..."
"In the eyes of the demon race, the humans of this world have simply become...more delicious..."
"Hahaha, delicious, I love that word! As expected of the head of the family!"
Blood Princess exclaimed excitedly, and the other demons also realized what was happening.
The living environment for the demon race has improved!
Before long, the streets will be full of young people with spiritual power, eating whatever they want.
The demon race will only grow stronger!
Suddenly, Fengling seemed to remember something and looked at Ruotinghan:
"I know why you suspect my father..."
"This matter currently appears to be fraught with crisis, but in reality, there is another very important factor."
"Spiritual masters will not become demons after they die! If... the spiritual power penetration rate among ordinary people in this world reaches 100%... then people will no longer become demons after they die."
"In the short term, the spiritual master world cannot afford it. The existing demon race may grow rapidly, but in the long term, this may be the demon race's last chance to counterattack. This is almost cutting off the demon race's lifeline! Many years later, the demon race will lose the way for humans to become demons and can only become demons through the souls of other living beings. The number of demons added each year will be greatly reduced."
"This is the most promising opportunity for the Spirit Masters to end the demon race, and also the closest the demon race has ever been to world domination..."
Feng Ling's words shocked the several demons in the Feng family.
The crow, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly revealed a gentle smile, one that even the wind chimes had never seen before, and whispered:
"Indeed, that's very much like something he would do..."
Wind Chime nodded:
"This is a high-stakes gamble. The stage is set. Let's see if the spirit masters can hold out in this final battle, or if the demon race can seize the opportunity to rule the world..."
