Chapter 2028: The Demons Surrender

Seeing Saint King Yinsu being defeated so quickly, the hearts of the demonic cultivators sank to the abyss, and they were still unable to turn around their fate of being totally annihilated.

“How could I lose…”

Saint King Yinsu murmured, unable to accept this reality.

In terms of cultivation base, she was greater than Mu Lingxi, and she was confident that she had fully unleashed the bloodline of the Grim Raptor, and at the same time fully immersed with the demonic arts of the Grim Demonic Potrait.

Yet, why was she not as strong as Mu Lingxi, so much so that she could not even withstand a strike.

Was it true that, as Mu Lingxi said, had the bloodline of the Grim Raptors devolved?

Zhang Ruochen stood at the edge of the square with his hands behind his back, sweeping his gaze across all of the demonic cultivators as he said lightly. “Those who surrender, lives, those who refuse, dies.”

Hearing this, Mu Lingxi and the others, as well as those of the Sect of the Blood God, were all surprised. They did not expect Zhang Ruochen to give these demonic cultivators a chance to live.

However, at this moment, they would not say anything to the contrary. They could not afford to ruin Zhang Ruochen’s majesty as the sect leader.

And the demonic cultivators too were very surprised, thinking that they had misheard him.

Amidst the surprise, He Yuan was the first to stand up and loudly proclaim. “I surrender. I am willing to surrender. Grand Master Zhang, I beseech you, to spare my life.”

Cultivation was not easy. He had wandered on the edge of life and earth countless of times, and after enduring so many hardships, he had finally cultivated to the realm of Precept Dominion How would he be willing to die in vain?

The Shadow Demon Realm was unlike a major realm like the Dark Demon Realm, and the difficulty of cultivating to the realm of Precept Dominion was extremely great.

Forget Precept Dominion, in the Shadow Demon Realm, even Nine-step Saint Kings were extremely rare, and were not much better than Guanghan Realm.

With He Yuan taking the lead, those demonic cultivators who were not from the Dark Demon Realm all stood up one after another, expressing their willingness to submit to the Sect of the Blood God.

But the cultivators of the Black Demon Realm all fell silent. Unlike He Yuan and the others, they represented the Black Demon Realm, and were extremely proud and had many other thoughts in their mind.

“You, come here.”

Zhang Ruochen opened his mouth, and pointed at He Yuan.

Without any hesitation, He Yuan immediately appeared before Zhang Ruochen as he bowed. “He Yuan is here to see the Grand Master. What will you have me do?”

“Open up your soul, don’t resist. You only have this one chance.” Zhang Ruochen said indifferently.

He Yuan’s body trembled, and he quickly responded. “Yes.”

He then saw Zhang Ruochen stretched out a hand as a trace of Blood Qi appeared at the tip of his finger, which quickly formed into a bizarre rune.

The next moment, the rune flew out and sank into He Yuan’s brow, and then penetrated towards his saint soul.

He Yuan instinctively wanted to resist, but when he thought of what Zhang Ruochen had said, he gave up resisting.

That way, the bizarre rune smoothly seeped into He Yuan’s soul, and instantly went into a state of torpor.

“The Blood God’s Curse Seal.”

The middle-aged man with a giant maw said solemnly.

He recognized the secret technique used by Zhang Ruochen. It was created by the Blood God back in the day, and was specially used to enslave cultivators above the realm of a Saint.

This secret techique was something all Grand Masters of the Sect of the Blood God will cultivate, and of course, even a Saint King-level powerhouse was also qualified to train it.

Back then, the Black Demon Realm was in submission to the Sect of the Blood God, and had many of her powerhouses implanted with the Blood God’s Curse Seal, and had to obey the secto’s Grand Master’s orders.

In any era, in any place, the strong holding dominion over the weak was the unchanging laws of survival.

How could the Black Demon Realm not pay a price if it wanted the support of the Sect of the Blood God.

At the very beginning, the Black Demon Realm was managed by the Blood God’s chief disciple, Xue Lingxian, and Xue Lingxian’s methods were very pointed, formulating many rules to restrain the Black Demon Realm.

If not, how could the Sect of the Blood God control the Black Demon Realm for tens of thousands of years without any chaos.

In that era, the reason why all cultivators feared the Sect of the Blood God, apart from the Blood God’s own power, was largely due to Xue Lingxian.

Seeing Zhang Ruochen casting the Blood God’s Curse Seal, the middle-aged man with a large mouth could not help but to think back of the times when Black Demon Realm was under the Sect of the Blood God’s control. The Grand Master’s words alone determined the life or death of all life on the realm.

“He Yuan, you will be in charge of all of the demonic cultivators that had submitted to the Sect of the Blood God. If there is any problems, you’ll be the one I’ll look for.” Zhang Ruochen said in a cold voice.

He Yuan bowed and said with a trembling voice. “Rest assured, Grand Master. I will make sure to keep all of them in check.”

With his soul planted with the Blood God’s Curse Seal, He Yuan dared not disobey Zhang Ruochen’s orders.

He had clear felt the terror of the curse seal, and should it activate, it will take his life in an instant.

Although he was enslaved, He Yuan was secretly grateful that he at the very least survived. As long as he listens to Zhang Ruochen’s orders, his days should not be too bad.

Immediately, He Yuan stood aside.

Behind He Yuan, there were more than three hundred figures, all above the Saint Realm, with several Saint Kings among them.

“Zhang Ruochen, if you want to kill me, be quick about it. But let me remind you, that making an enemy out of the Heavenly Realm faction, it will not end well for you. Soon, there will be someone who will come to take your life.” The childlike Nine-step Saint King sneered.

His character was the most brazen, and he had wanted to threaten Zhang Ruochen by blowing up his saint source.

Zhang Ruochen cast his gaze over and spoke indifferently. “Since you want to die that badly, then I shall grant you that.”

Zhang Ruochen slowly raised his hand as seventy thousand Precepts of Dimension appeared, and penetrated into the surrounding space.

Long before the childlike Nine-step Saint King from the Black Demon Realm could even react, he was violently crushed by the space around him.

Baaaam!!

The childlike Nine-step Saint King could not resist the attack at all, and his body immediately burst into pieces, turning into clouds of blood that splashed on the bodies of other Black Demon Realm cultivators.

A Nine-step Saint King who had just reached the pinnacle of Precept Dominion had fallen just like that.

For those Black Demon Realm cultivators, Zhang Ruochen would not show them any mercy.

“Zhang Ruochen, you can shove your wishful thinking away. You want us submit? Impossible!” The middle-aged man with a large mouth said forcefully.

Saint King Yinsu dragged her wounded body flashed to the middle-aged man’s side as she said cold.y” Zhang Ruochen, don’t get too full of yourself. The Sect of the Blood God will inevitably perish and you will not be able to protect it. And for you, you won’t be enjoying this for long.”

Clearly, the two of them refused to submit.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head. “I gave you two the chance, but you two squandered it.”

Immediately after, Zhang Ruochen used his spatial techniques as he easily obliterated both the middle-aged man and Saint King Yinsu.

Within his spatial domain, killing these Black Demon Realm cultivators could not have been easier.

Seeing three of their companions being reduced to blood mist, the remaining Nine-step Saint King of the Black Demon Realm trembled, as his heart was extremely conflicted.

Bam bam bam!

Just when the only Nine-step Saint King of the Black Demon Realm was struggling in his heart, the sounds of bodies exploding rang out one after another.

Behind them, the bodies of many Black Demon Realm cultivators burst into pieces. Their physical and spiritual forms were destroyed, leaving only Saint Sources behind.

Zhang Ruochen’s method was just too terrifying that those Black Demon Realm cultivators could not even scream before they died.

Hearing the sound of bodies exploding one after another, the only remaining Nine-Step Saint King instantly trembled.

He gritted his teeth, and then lowered his proud head as he bowed and said, “I, Pei Linhu, greet the Grand Master.”

Hearing this, a smile suddenly appeared on Zhang Ruochen’s face. He had thought these Black Demon Realm cultivators were all tough nuts, and he did not expect there was a coward among them.

“Pei Linhu, you coward! You dare betray the Black Demon Realm, The Demon Lord will never forgive you!”

A Black Demon Realm Saint King roared in fury.

A terrifying glint burst out from Pei Linhu’s eyes as he turned about and slammed his palm onto the roaring Saint King’s head.

Splukt!

That Saint King’s head immediately burst into pieces as his headless corpse fell from the air.

“You asked for this, and you can’t blame me,” Pei Linhu cursed inwardly.

Now that he had decided to submit to the Sect of the Blood God, he was not afraid to do something drastic. That way, he could win some of Zhang Ruochen’s trust.

“Very well, Pei Linhu, you made a wise choice.”

Zhang Ruochen smiled faintly.

As he spoke, a curse seal appeared on Zhang Ruochen’s fingertips as it flew towards Pei Linhu.

Seeing the curse seal flying over, Pei Linhu could not help but struggle, unwilling to be the thrall under the curse seal.

However, in order to survive, Pei Linhu finally gave up any resistance and allowed the curse seal to enter his soul.

Seeing Pei Linhu choosing to submit, some Black Demon Realm cultivators could not help but fall silent, not knowing what choice to make.

“I submit.”

Finally, a Black Demon cultivator could not bear the pressure and chose to submit to Zhang Ruochen.

Soon after, other cultivators also lowered their heads, in something comparable to a chain effect.

In the end, over thirty-odd Black Demon Realm cultivators chose to submit one after another, including three Saint King-realm elites.

It was just that Zhang Ruochen’s suppressive aura was just too powerful for them to bear.

As for those who refused to submit, Zhang Ruochen did not show any mercy as he annihilated all of them.

Like Pei Linhu, the three Saint King-realm powerhouses were also planted with the curse seal.

After all, in comparison, Saint King-realm powerhouses were not as easy to manage, so naturally he needed to impose some constraints on them.

With a wave of his hand, Zhang Ruochen released Du Mosheng who he had previously suppressed in Xingluo Town out.

“Du Mosheng, you have two choices now, either submit or die.” Zhang Ruochen said.

Hearing this, Du Mosheng could not help but reveal a surprised expression. He did not expect Zhang Ruochen to give him a way out.

He knew that Zhang Ruochen had always been ruthless against his enemies, and had never heard of him giving a way out to his foes.

Just like how Gu Tianyin, Zi Linglong, and the others, they were already held captive but Zhang Ruochen still mercilessly obliterated them in the end.

“Old’ Du, just submit. It had not been easy for us to cultivate to this level, there is no need to throw our lives away for nothing,” Pei Linhu said, persuading Du Mosheng.

Du Mosheng turned around and looked at Pei Linhu and He Yuan, and said in shock. “All of you have submitted?”

“If not, how could you be seeing us now.” He Yuan sighed slightly.

Zhang Ruochen asked, “Made up your mind?”

Anyone could see that he was already growing a little impatient.

“If a person doesn’t live for oneself, the heavens will come apart. I, Du Mosheng, have always lived for myself. If there is an opportunity to live on, why should I choose to die? I submit.” Du Mosheng said very brusquely.

The corners of Zhang Ruochen’s mouth rose slightly, as he said. “What a great ‘live for yourself’. Open up your soul, and do not resist.”

A spurt of blood Qi gathered at Zhang Ruochen’s, and it quickly formed a Blood God’s Curse Seal.

“This is…the Blood God’s Curse Seal.” Du Mosheng’s expression changed drastically.

For a moment, Du Mosheng’s expression kept changing, but in the end, he chose to give up any resistance, because he knew that should he resist, it will only end in his death.

At this moment, the spies from both the Heavenly Realm and the Infernal Court who were observing in secret all revealed a shocked look. They did not expect such a thing to have happened.

Enslaving the cultivators from Black Demon Realm was undoubtedly trampling upon the majesty of the Black Demon Realm.

When the news of this spreads, one can only wonder what sort of commotion it will kick up, and one can only think that even the gods of Black Demon Realm would be alarmed.

They dared not linger as the spies from both factions quickly retreated at the fastest speed possible, for fear of being spotted by Zhang Ruochen.

“From today on, all of you will be responsible for guarding the Sect of the Blood God. Anyone who dares to intrude upon the grounds of the sect, shall be killed without mercy.”

“Also, you lot have attacked and killed many disciples of our sect. To redeem yourself, you must kill a hundred times more cultivators from the Infernal Court to have a chance at undoing the curse seal.”

Zhang Ruochen said with absolute majesty.

“Yes, Grand Master.”

All of the demonic cultivators who had submitted responded in unison.

They were now all bound and could only obey Zhang Ruochen’s orders.

Zhang Ruochen was in a good mood. Subduing these demonic cultivators had many benefits. First, they enhanced the strength of the sect, and secondly, it served to beat the arrogance of the Heavenly Realm faction down a notch.

The Heavenly Realm was so unassailable that Zhou Yu even laid down the gauntlet from afar, saying that he would take Zhang Ruochen’s life.

And now he had directly enslaved a group of Heavenly Realm cultivators, and had undoubtedly given the Heavenly Realm faction a big slap across the face. And now, he wanted to see how they would react.

The others were afraid of the Heavenly Realm faction, but Zhang Ruochen was never afraid of them.

In addition, Zhang Ruochen also wanted to let those gods of the Black Demon Realm know that even if one hundred thousand years had passed, the cultivators of the Black Demon Realm were still only slaves to the Sect of the Blood God, and as the Grand Master of the sect, he could determine the life and death of the Black Demon Realm cultivators with a single word.

“Zhang Ruochen, what’s the matter that you got me to rush over in such a hurry?”

Suddenly, Blackie’s voice sounded.

No one had noticed as Blackie had appeared out of thin air above the square of Yingzhu Peak, with an upset look.

Zhang Ruochen said. “The Sect of the Blood God had just been attacked by the Black Demon Realm, and many formations had been seriously damaged. The reason I called you here is to redeploy some formation arrays. This shouldn’t be a difficult task for you.”

“I thought it was something serious, and it’s only to deploy formation arrays. As long as you can cough out the best materials, I can arrange a few for you, even if they are Ninth-Rank formations.” Blackie said proudly.

Blackie’s skill in deploying formation arrays was extremely high, but his spiritual power was weaker back then, and could not arrange an array that was too high in rank.

But now, it seemed like its spiritual power had obviously increased, and deploying a Ninth-Rank formation was no longer a problem.

Zhang Ruochen said. “I’ll leave the matter to you then. I don’t want anyone to break into the Sect of the Blood God so easily. If you need anything, just tell them to do it.”

Blackie’s gaze swept across Du Mosheng, Pei Linhu and the rest, and could not help but be surprised. “You’ve subdued those Black Demon Realm cultivators?”

“I’ve already planted the Blood God’s Curse Seal into the soul. You can use them as you see fit without worry.” Zhang Ruochen said.

Hearing this, Blackie suddenly laughed. “Not bad. For you to subdue those from the Black Demon Realm, the nasty heart of the Blackheart Demonlord will probably be raging with fury now.”

Blackie and the Blackheart Demonlord had unresolved grievances. Now that it saw the latter suffering setbacks, it was naturally very happy, and wanted to see with its own eyes what sort of expression the Blackheart Demonlord would have had.

“Follow me, I’ll wipe you all into shape,” Blackie said with its head held high.

Du Mosheng and the others all had a bitter look on their face, knowing that nothing good will come out from following Blackie, but there was no other way, they dared not disobey Zhang Ruochen’s orders.

After Blackie left with the group of Black Demon cultivators in tow did Zhang Ruochen stepped into the Grand Guiyan Hall.

The various saints of the Sect of the Blood God followed behind him without any delay.

Zhang Ruochen walked straight to the leader’s seat at the center of the Grand Guiyan Hall. This was a seat that belonged to him, but ever since he became the Grand Master of the sect, he had not sat on it for more than a few times.

Sitting in this seat meant taking on a lot of burdens. With great power, comes great responsibilities.

Although he dared not say that he had been an excellent Grand Master, but at the very least, he did his best.

As soon as he turned around, Zhang Ruochen sat on the leader’s seat with great majesty.

“Hail, Grand Master.”

For a while, the various saints of the Sect of the Blood God bowed to Zhang Ruochen, with great excitement in their eyes.

This was the second time Zhang Ruochen had turned the tide and saved the Sect of Blood God from being overthrown.

And now, all saints of the Sect of the Blood God believed that as long as Zhang Ruochen was around, the sect will not perish, and will return to its former glory.
