Chapter 177 Immortality
Chapter 177 Immortality (4000 subscriptions required)
A moment later.
Above the Xinggong Hall, on the high hanging general throne, Xu Yang sat with his horse and golden sword.
Below, ten demon lords were divided into two sides.
On the left hand side are Yao Xin Hou and Mei Xin Hou. Yao Xin Hou looks relaxed and full of energy, Mei Xin Hou still looks charming, but if you look closely at his eyes, you can see a hint of panic.
On the right side, there are eight dejected metal puppets. They no longer have the arrogance they had before, and there is fear in their eyes.
A villain fears power but not virtue.
They were sneaking around, trying to give the new general Xu Yang a warning, but they were crushed like a plow through the house, and now they couldn't even think of resisting.
With a sharp gaze, he swept over the monsters below, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, today's matter is over today. As long as you follow the rules in the future, I will not settle the score later."
"Thank you, General, for your generosity." All ten demons below bowed and saluted. At this moment, no one dared to argue about the reception, and everyone wanted to get over this as soon as possible.
The art of controlling subordinates is to alternate between relaxation and tension.
After the big stick is given, the smiling face candy must also be given.
"Green Lizard Marquis."
"My subordinate is here."
A burly green puppet stood out from the crowd. It was the big green lizard that Xu Yang had first pinned down.
"Report the composition and current situation of your army." Xu Yang ordered. In fact, this information can be found on the virtual assistant, after all, the entire Youxin Army is under his command, but it is meaningful for Xu Yang to do so.
First, let these demon lords' subordinates develop the habit of immediately executing their orders when they hear them, even if it is just a small matter like this.
Qing Xi Hou was stunned for a moment, but the emptiness of lacking 5% of his divine body immediately brought him back to his senses and he reported honestly.
Next.
"Hou Xuanying, come here."
"Okay, General."
……
"Mountain Scorpion Marquis."
"My subordinate is here."
……
In this way, it took a full two hours, and all ten immortal marquises had finished their reports and stood respectfully at the bottom of the steps.
Xu Yang didn't rush to speak, tapping the armrest lightly with his fingers.
After a long while, he finally spoke: "First, I will apply to the general for the 'divine body recovery treasure' in the name of the Youxin Army."
The eight injured marquises looked at each other with a hint of joy in their eyes. Although they were injured by Xu Yang just now, now that they heard that Xu Yang would apply to the general for the "divine body recovery treasure", somehow, they all felt a touch of gratitude towards Xu Yang.
"Thank you for your concern, General."
Xu Yang nodded gently: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me. Second, the mining efforts of the seventy-eight 'Tears of Tamo Luo' deposits need to be increased. If the labor force is not enough, then go and apply to the higher-ups."
He had just calculated that according to the data, there were 78 medium-sized or larger Tear of Tara deposits in the entire Tara Star Region. If each deposit was mined at full capacity, it would produce at least hundreds of demon yuan of ore a year. Of course, considering the sustainable development of ore regeneration, it was impossible to really mine at full capacity. But the output value near the red line was at least 40 to 50 demon yuan a year!
Together with those small and medium-sized mineral deposits, the output in one era is nearly 50 million demon yuan.
However, the financial reports submitted by the Youxin Army in recent years show that in the past ten eras, the output in each era was only 20 million demon yuan!
Excluding the possibility of secret corruption, after all, the God-Swallowing Wolf Clan is also keeping a close eye on such a large star field, and it is impossible for anyone to test the sharpness of the God-Swallowing Wolf Clan's guillotine for the sake of some money.
The only explanation is that these demon princes are slacking off and don't want Yule, the "acting general", to make money. You know, the chief officer of the Youxin Army can share 5% of the profits from the annual output!
Even though this 5% seems insignificant, it can generate millions of demon essences in every era. Moreover, this is a long-term profit. For an immortal with eternal lifespan, even a powerful king cannot ignore it.
"Yes, General, we will do our best." Except for Yule, whose face was a little dark, the other nine immortals all promised. Xu Yang and Yule were different. They could unite to undermine Yule, but they dared not challenge Xu Yang's majesty again.
It’s not even enough for one person to hit it.
"For the rest, just keep the status quo and maintain the stability of the Tamo Luo star region."
In other aspects, there are not many places that need to be changed. The Tamo Luo star field is in a relatively central location, and there are rarely any major conflicts. Moreover, there are hundreds of immortals stationed in one star field, so there is almost no chance of any monster coming to cause trouble.
"Except Jules, all the others should withdraw."
"Yes."
Nine figures left and the palace door closed.
"Jules, sit down and don't be too restrained. We are partners now." Xu Yang said kindly.
Yule obediently sat on the futon placed in the hall and said, "Thank you, General."
"Because I was parachuted in from outside, in fact, including me, the entire Youxin Army now has 101 immortals. The prescribed military system cannot be exceeded. The extra immortal will be deducted from your guard. Send it to the Five Domains Continent to deliver the dispatch order. It doesn't need to come back after delivering it. Just wait there for the military's arrangements." Xu Yang said.
"Okay, General, I'll arrange it later." Yule nodded. This was indeed the case. The military system of the God-Swallowing Army was very strict, unlike the Realm Lord-level God-Swallowing Army which could rely on connections to overcome obstacles.
"Secondly, you should keep an eye on the nine marquises who just left. If they don't make any small moves, just leave them alone. If anyone dares to pretend to obey but actually disobey, do not show mercy." A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Xu Yang's eyes. Since he was the general of the Youxin Army, he naturally had to hold all the power in his hands and would never allow his subordinates to disobey.
It would be most reassuring to let Yao Xinhou handle this matter, because Yao Xinhou still hopes to break through to the Venerable level in the future to help the Snow Wolf Clan, and it is impossible for him not to do his best.
In his previous life, Yao Xinhou could now be considered half a retainer, and the remaining half would have to be tested by time.
"Okay, General, I won't abuse my power for personal gain." Yule patted his chest to make the promise. Although he had been annoyed by these nine marquises before, he was now very clear about his position. He was the tentacles and eyes extended by Xu Yang... He only needed to be objective and fair, without mixing in his own thoughts.
"Well, I can rest assured that you are doing the work."
……
Looking at Yao Xinhou's departing back, the light of the distant stars disappeared from the gap of the slowly closing palace door, and the Star Palace Hall returned to darkness.
Deep, quiet, lonely, powerful...
A series of adjectives filled the dark hall. Xu Yang whispered to himself, "Now I am no longer alone. This Youxin Army is also half of my power. With eighty-nine army lords and ten marquises, it is a very strong force."
This Youxin Army was loyal to the Devouring God Wolf Clan first, and then to him as the general, so they had to climb up!
When the entire God-Devouring Wolf Clan belongs to him, he will be able to truly gain a foothold in the demon clan's territory.
……
The core area of the God-Devouring Wolf Clan.
The Sky-Devouring Overlord and the two venerables standing behind him looked down with indifferent eyes, like gods high above.
"Ancestor, our God-Swallowing...Sky-Swallowing Wolf Clan is participating in the mopping-up operation in the central star region this time. Will the Sky Wolf Clan send monsters to participate?" A wolf lord with golden hair spoke from behind the Sky-Swallowing Overlord.
"Humph! Join if you want to. Am I afraid of them?" Sky Devouring Overlord snorted coldly and squinted his eyes to look behind him. "Golden Wolf, are you afraid before the battle?"
"No, no, I just said it casually, don't take it to heart, ancestor." The Golden Wolf Venerable spoke quickly. The gaze of the Sky-Swallowing Overlord was too dangerous, and it was not something that a small middle-level Venerable like him could resist.
"Hmph, that's good!" Sky-Swallowing Overlord turned around and looked at the steps below again.
At this time, there were densely packed wolf monsters climbing on the steps. They were selecting elite troops to go on a sweeping expedition. Sweeping the central star region was both an opportunity and a crisis. If one was not strong enough, not only would one lose one's life, but one would also bring shame to the tribe.
Standing next to the Golden Wolf Venerable was the Wolf Venerable with silver-white hair, who was making eye contact with the Golden Wolf Venerable.
"Aren't you just looking for trouble? You know that the ancestor split from the Heavenly Wolf Clan and founded the 'Sky-Swallowing Wolf Clan' out of anger, but now you are bringing up something irrelevant?"
"But compared to the giants like the Heavenly Wolf Clan, our Heaven-Swallowing Wolf Clan is as powerful as a firefly and a bright moon. We were even forced to change our name to the 'God-Swallowing Wolf Clan'. If we fight them head-on, isn't that a losing battle?"
"Why do you care? With our ancestors in front of us, what are you afraid of?"
"Tsk, I hope you can still be so stubborn when you really meet the Sirius Clan."
The two venerables were beaming with joy and were communicating rapidly.
The entire Sky-Devouring Wolf Clan, oh no, the God-Devouring Wolf Clan, actually only has three Venerable-level powerhouses. The reason why they are stronger than the other four clans in the Five Domain Continent is mainly because of the Sky-Devouring Overlord who came from the Sky Wolf Clan.
The Sky-Swallowing Overlord, with his profound knowledge of secret techniques, is able to chase down five venerables from the second-ranked 'Red Water Fox Clan' all by himself.
Unable to defeat five against one, the Red Water Fox Clan could only unite with the other three clans to resist the Devouring God Wolf Clan. Facing the coalition of four clans, the Sky-Devouring Overlord was also powerless. Although he was powerful, he had no useful monsters under his command.
Eventually, the five tribes will share the 'Heart of Eight Laws' and establish this five-domain continent.
above the steps.
“Drink!” “Ha!” “Drink!” “Come on!” “Hold on!”
On the steps, the weakest ones were all Origin Realm Lord-level strongmen. There were bursts of huge noises that made the clouds in the sky tremble. There were dense colors, white, black, purple, gold, silver... all kinds of colors, and large groups of wolf monsters were climbing.
A world master-level wolf demon only needs to climb 50,000 levels to be qualified.
The Immortal Army Lord needs to climb three hundred thousand floors.
To achieve immortality, one needs to climb over 800,000 levels.
To become an immortal king you have to reach the top.
The pressure on this long stairway to godhood does not increase proportionally, but rises abruptly every time it reaches a limit, and the pressure curve soars into the sky like pulling onions out of dry land.
call.
The first Immortal King to reach the summit appeared, sweating profusely. This time, for the selection, the difficulty of the entire long staircase to the gods was increased a lot, and it was several times more difficult than the first time it climbed.
Even for the strongest ones, it is so difficult to become a king, let alone for the others.
"Key Corpse King, very good." Sky-Swallowing Overlord praised with a kind smile.
The Key Corpse King was flattered and immediately prostrated himself, "Thank you for the compliment, Old Ancestor. This is what I should do."
"Well, go wait aside."
Next, more and more qualified people appeared, including the immortal masters of the origin realm, immortal military masters, immortal marquises, and immortal kings. It finally took seven days and finally all the qualified demon wolves in the entire inner world were selected.
It was a sea of black people, almost filling the entire square.
“Golden Wolf, Silver Wolf, the mission of this team is now handed over to you.” The Heaven Devouring Overlord casually gave a few words of instruction, and then sent a message to the two demons behind him, “Also, those God Devouring Wolf troops recruited from outside are also important blood for us. The other half of the quota will be given to them. You two should discuss this matter and I will not participate.”
"Don't worry, old ancestor. I'll take care of this little matter." Venerable Golden Wolf said solemnly.
Silver Wolf Reverend also nodded: "Don't worry, ancestor."
Wow~~~~
The Sky-Devouring Overlord once again scattered into a sky full of sparks and left.
……
The selection of the God-Devouring Wolf Army was not announced so quickly.
After all, this is a major event that concerns the entire ethnic group, and confidentiality must be kept first.
Therefore, Xu Yang still stayed in the Youxin Army’s base.
Tamo Luo star field, Star Palace Hall.
Xu Yang returned to his true form, and his huge body of over 6,000 kilometers stretched across the hall like a mountain. Fortunately, the hall was large enough.
"At this moment, the most important thing is not to comprehend the laws, but the immortal body. Becoming immortal is only the first step. Strictly speaking, even if the hard power is the same, the one with the immortal body will definitely have the upper hand." Xu Yang was not in a hurry to comprehend the eight lower laws.
At the level of 'immortal body', the spiritual imprint is completely integrated deep into every cell of the body. Even if the soul is scattered and turned into ashes, as long as a trace of cell fragments exists, it can quickly absorb energy and body fragments and quickly restore to wholeness.
If an immortal god does not have an immortal body, his divine body will be condensed and once it is dispersed by external forces, he will lose divine power. However, if an immortal god has an immortal body, being dispersed once will have almost no effect on his strength.
If you want to wipe out the immortal gods with immortal bodies, you can only forcibly destroy their divine power.
For example, some time ago, Xu Yang destroyed 5% of the divine power of eight immortal marquises with one strike, making the eight immortal marquises terrified and completely surrendered... He used absolute force to forcibly destroy the divine power!
Can't you still absorb energy to recover after your soul is shattered? I will use my divine power to wipe out your cells from the very beginning. My divine power is all around you. Do you want to absorb energy? Dream on!
If not even a trace of energy can be absorbed, then it will be completely annihilated.
But this does not mean that the immortal body is not powerful. On the contrary, it means that the immortal body is so powerful that even Xu Yang has to use his own divine power to continuously disperse and annihilate them if he wants to wipe them out.
It is only because the frequency of dispersion and annihilation is too high that the instant kill effect can be revealed.
