"System, are you sure this Ten Thousand Demons Pool can be used? Why does it feel so dangerous?" Zhou Qiong looked at a pool of bubbling water in front of him. The fragrance inside was so refreshing that people wanted to take a dip in it. Of course, it would be better if it didn't emit some electricity occasionally.
"Host, this small Ten Thousand Demons Pool is the best to use below the Martial God Realm. You drew it using the primary lottery, so be happy. The first time will give the best effect."
Gritting his teeth, Zhou Qiong stepped into the Small Ten Thousand Demons Pond and immediately felt a stream of spiritual energy entering his body, which continuously improved his cultivation. The electric current that he was worried about only made his body numb, which continuously increased his body's strength.
Zhou Qiong, who was sitting cross-legged in the Small Ten Thousand Demons Pond, secretly practiced his skills and cultivated non-stop. His aura was increasing rapidly. Two hours later, a powerful aura emanated from Zhou Qiong, and then slowly returned to calm.
Zhou Qiong checked the character panel.
Characters: Zhou Qiong (Zhou Wudi);
Position: Demon Cult Leader;
Cultivation: Mid-stage Martial God;
Martial arts: Demonic God Skill, Sky Life and Death Hand, God and Demon Eye, and the second level of Heaven Devouring Demon Skill;
Mount: Dragon Chariot;
Two years had passed since the Demon Cult launched its full-scale attack on the mainland. Zhou Qiong had already broken through to the Martial God realm a year ago, and that was because he had spent a lot of time practicing the Heaven Devouring Demon Art. This time, he had made use of the Small Ten Thousand Demons Pool to break through to the mid-stage Martial God realm.
In fact, the biggest gain this time was the improvement of his physical strength. Zhou Qiong had a feeling that he could break the space with his physical body without using any magic power. Now, his physical strength alone was no weaker than that of an ordinary peak martial god.
Looking at the small Ten Thousand Demons Pool, the lightning inside had disappeared, all of it was absorbed by him. Zhou Qiong silently collected the Ten Thousand Demons Pool. This Ten Thousand Demons Pool would bring an endless supply of masters to the Demon Cult in the future.
Zhou Qiong tapped his fingers, and a figure wearing a diamond mask appeared in the hall and knelt on one knee.
"Your subordinate Tian San, I pay my respects to the leader..."
"Tell me how the investigation went recently!"
"Master, we found out that Zhao Li was last seen at Jinshan Temple, and then he disappeared."
Zhou Qiong muttered, "Interesting, is he dead? That's impossible. He is obviously the protagonist. Could it be that he ascended to the upper realm for some reason like Ximen Di?"
But he didn't think much about it. He just wanted to see how far Zhao Li had reached in his cultivation recently. If he really had the potential to threaten him, Zhou Qiong wouldn't mind killing him in advance.
He is not the stupid villain in TV dramas who has to wait until the protagonist becomes powerful before dueling. What the cult should do is to nip the danger in the bud and eradicate the danger completely.
"Tell me, how are Liansheng and the others progressing?"
"Master, the chief steward has taken down most of the forces. The Great Wilderness Dynasty and the Dagan Dynasty have officially declared their surrender. Only the Dayu Dynasty is still resisting stubbornly. There is still no news of Huangsha Fort and Fu Zong surrendering. The chief steward said that these forces can be dealt with in half a year at most."
Zhou Qiong laughed heartily, "The action is not slow. Inform Liansheng and tell him that I asked him to take it slow. It doesn't necessarily take a year to unify the continent."
"Also, notify all the Dharma protectors, hall masters, and demon kings to return to the Demon Cult headquarters in batches."
"Yes, sir!" Tian San, who was kneeling on the ground, gradually disappeared above the hall.
"System, open the time house. I want to practice."
"Okay, host."
It turned out that Zhou Qiong learned from the system that the first four levels of Tongxuan Realm are the initial stages, and after the fifth level, there is a change at each level, which is very difficult to improve, so Zhou Qiong wanted to make good use of the system's rewards.
As long as he cultivates to the peak of Martial God before unifying the continent, with the rewards he can be promoted to the seventh level of Tongxuan, then he will be more confident in going to the upper realm.
As for why the high-ranking members of the Demon Cult were asked to come back in turns, it was of course to use the Small Ten Thousand Demons Pool to improve their cultivation. Zhou Qiong did not want to go to the upper realm alone. As someone who had been used to being the leader of the Demon Cult, he could not bear to give up such a life.
In a city on the edge of the Dayu Dynasty, Liansheng, dressed in a red robe, was making plans with the top leaders of the Demon Cult.
"General Manager, I suggest we just charge in all at once. Do you think the Dayu Dynasty can stop us?" The Demon Tiger King patted his head and said, he really felt that the research plan was troublesome.
Li Changsheng from the Qinglong Hall also smiled and said, "Although the method is a bit stupid, it does work. Although the Dayu Dynasty is stronger than the other two dynasties, it is still far behind my Demon Sect."
Liansheng thought about it and nodded, "Tomorrow morning, everyone will follow me to the palace and take down the Dayu Dynasty in one fell swoop. The remaining Fuzong and Huangsha Fort will not be a problem."
"Yes, sir!" The high-ranking members of the Demon Cult answered excitedly. After two years, they were finally going to complete the task assigned by their leader ahead of schedule.
At this time, a figure wearing a diamond mask appeared next to Liansheng, said a few words to Liansheng, turned around and disappeared again.
Everyone in the Demon Cult knew that this was an order from the leader. In the past two years, the Four Divisions of Tiandi Xuanhuang have also appeared in the sight of the Demon Cult's top leaders and would occasionally cooperate with their actions, but no one has ever seen what they look like because they have never taken off the masks on their faces.
All I know is that they are all masters, the worst of whom is at the Martial Emperor level, and they only obey the leader. Even the chief steward has no authority over them.
Lian Sheng coughed lightly and said, "The leader has ordered that we must take down all the forces within one year. No more, no less."
The members of the Demon Cult were all surprised, but no one dared to raise any objections. Now the Demon Cult was completely ruled by Zhou Qiong alone. In the minds of the members of the Demon Cult, Zhou Qiong was even more powerful than the founder of the sect. He was a well-deserved leader.
In a retreat room in the back mountain of the Demon Cult, a figure was sitting cross-legged. His body was covered with dust and his breath was so weak that it seemed as if he was not breathing. It was the great protector Bai Haotian who had been reborn in Nirvana.
He had nearly died several times in the past two years, but a phoenix figure in his heart continued to radiate vitality, maintaining his life, over and over again.
Finally, the phoenix stopped emitting vitality, but spread its wings and flew, emitting red flames, and suddenly Bai Haotian's whole body was burning.
However, the flame not only did not burn Bai Haotian, but the more it burned, the stronger his vitality and momentum became.
It didn't take long for Bai Haotian to recover to the early stage of Martial Emperor. And he didn't stop there. His cultivation continued to increase from the middle stage of Martial Emperor, to the late stage of Martial Emperor, to the peak stage of Martial Emperor.
With a bang, something seemed to break inside Bai Haotian's body. His cultivation level rose to a higher level again, and then slowly calmed down. Half an hour later, Bai Haotian opened his eyes, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
