Chapter 5, Level 7 Chapter 47: Fame
The Qinghu Demon God was extremely shocked and furious. Over the years, he was used to crushing his enemies with his powerful demon body. Even if it was a spell , he could easily resist it eight or ten times. But this time, he encountered a demon-suppressor who was good at the "Demon-suppressing Divine Body"!
There are very few people who subdue demons and cultivate divine bodies.
After all, it was to transform one's own body, which was much more difficult than practicing magic. Just like Xu Jingming, among the three great magical powers, he mainly focused on the Star Body, but his progress was still much slower than the Five Thunder Method.
“Fortunately, my Star Divine Body has reached the minor success stage, and the gap between me and the Qinghu Demon God is not too big.” Xu Jingming thought to himself, “If I had only mastered the basic magical powers, I would have been crushed in a single fight.”
When the gap in physical fitness is too great, practical skills cannot make up for it.
As for now?
Xu Jingming had the advantage in terms of speed, and his strength was nearly half of that of the Qinghu Demon God. With his amazing combat skills, he was naturally one-sided.
"Boom ~~~" When the spear pierced into the body of the Qinghu Demon, four-colored thunder erupted, destroying it from the inside!
The skin of the Qinghu Demon God is extremely tough, but the inside is relatively fragile. Moreover, the spear he used was the "Four Thunders" of the Five Thunders Magic!
When using his magical powers, Xu Jingming could only fire three thunders at the same time.
But when refining the magic weapon, there is enough time to engrave the runes. Xu Jingming worked hard and finally succeeded in engraving the rune of four thunders fired simultaneously. This spear became Xu Jingming's strongest killing move.
"No!!!" The Qinghu Demon God's body exploded in fear, creating many holes in his tough body. Most of his body was directly destroyed.
The Qinghu Demon fled madly into the distance.
"What a strong demon body." Xu Jingming's figure was blurred, and he had already caught up with the Qinghu Demon. The spear in his hand was as fast as lightning and pierced into the broken body of the demon again.
boom!
Another terrifying burst of four thunders! This time, the demon god's body completely collapsed, unable to form a complete shape, and disintegrated into demonic energy, fleeing in all directions.
"Seal!" Xu Jingming thought, and a giant golden net covered most of Xiaoyue Lake, completely enveloping all the evil spirits.
When the demonic energy gathers into a demon body, the threat is still very strong. But once it disperses into demonic energy, the threat is drastically reduced. Xu Jingming observes with his magical eyes, locks all the demonic energy, and at the same time seals and covers it with a net.
All evil spirits are captured in one fell swoop!
Xu Jingming formed a magic seal with his hands, and three-colored thunder struck down from the sky, striking the inside of the golden giant net. Countless evil spirits were annihilated, and finally only a trace of his own evil spirit remained.
"Collect." Xu Jingming took out a jade bottle from his arms and put the trace of his innate demonic energy into the jade bottle.
He dispersed the net and collected the two swords that had fallen around him.
"The materials of these two swords are good." Xu Jingming also had to consider the future. "My magic power is not strong yet, and the power of the four-color thunder I induced is still limited. The black light cold iron is melted into the spear and becomes the rune veins. This spear can still withstand it for the time being."
“But as my strength increases, my magical powers and spells continue to soar, and the burden on the magic weapon will become greater and greater.” Xu Jingming thought, “According to the records in the Ten Thousand Stars Demon Refining Scroll, I may reach the sixth level of magic power and my magical powers will be fully developed. At that time, the power that will explode may be too great for this spear to withstand.”
"fine."
"It will take me quite some time to reach the sixth level."
Xu Jingming waved his hand, and the demonic power swept away countless pieces of rubble, easily clearing the dilapidated shore of Xiaoyue Lake.
"Win?"
Ordinary people far away saw the dust settle and the demon hunter who saved them finally succeeded in killing the demon, and they couldn't help but cheer.
"Master." Wu Qi had already run to Xu Jingming's side and enthusiastically helped him take the two knives. "I'll hold them for you, Master."
"Someone is coming." Xu Jingming looked up into the sky.
Patriarch Qi Chen has already landed.
" Brother Qi Chen." Xu Jingming said with a smile, "You came really fast! It only took the Qi family fifteen breaths to get here."
"I have long been worried that there might be demons in Dongming Mountain coming to deal with you, so I have been living secretly near your home. If I really rushed over from the Qi Mansion, it would not be possible for me to come so quickly." Patriarch Qi Chen said, and he naturally revealed the fact that he was waiting there.
If he doesn't say it, no one will know, so wouldn't it be a waste of time?
"Brother Qi Chen, you have been living near my house?" Xu Jingming was surprised. "Thank you, Brother Qi Chen."
"It's not worth mentioning. It's all in vain." Chief Qi Chen shook his head and said helplessly, "Who would have thought that the Qinghu Demon God was so cunning and actually attacked you in Xiaoyue Lake."
“But brother Wu Ming, you are really amazing.” Clan leader Qi Chen couldn’t help but say, “Last time you could only barely subdue the city patrol envoy Zhang Xiu, but today you were able to kill the Green Lake Demon God! It’s only been a few months, and you are already stronger than me.”
"I just happened to restrain him." Xu Jingming said modestly.
Nothing to be proud of.
He is just an earth demon, and not even the strongest demon in Cheng'an Prefecture.
As an outside member of the Yuanchuxing conjecture lineage, Xu Jingming naturally has high standards for himself. Like his senior brother Gu Shan and senior sister Mo Yu, they are both people who created their own secret methods of subduing demons in the Subduing Demon World and founded their own schools. Even if Senior Brother Chi Tong temporarily withdrew from the Subduing Demon World due to injury, he is still a ninth-level demon subduer!
They are all extraordinary people!
I am still far behind my senior brothers and sisters.
call.
An old man with sparse hair appeared from the wind and looked at Xu Jingming with a smile: "Is this Brother Wu Ming?"
"This is Brother Fang Nian from Fengying Sect." Patriarch Qi Chen introduced.
"Hello, Brother Fang Nian." Xu Jingming understood. They were all life forms in the universe and the stars. In the demon-suppressing world, one could not tell their real age in reality. People usually made friends based on their strength.
The old man in front of him, Fang Nian, is the most powerful demon hunter in the sect within Cheng'an Prefecture.
"Brother Wu Ming, you are really powerful. You killed Qinghu Demon God, one of the five great demon gods, with one move!" Old Man Fang said with a smile, "Among the many demon hunters in Cheng'an Prefecture, Brother Wu Ming is one of the top three."
…
When the demon-hunting masters from all sides in the city came to make friends with Xu Jingming.
The most powerful being in the entire city, 'Lord of Dongming Mountain', was accompanying his junior sister.
"Senior Brother, please sit down first. I'll prepare some fruit snacks for you." Junior Sister Liu smiled and went to prepare them.
Wang Cheng was sitting in the pavilion, looking at the direction of Xiaoyue Lake from afar, and shook his head gently: "I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and the Qinghu Demon God still hasn't made any progress! He only acts recklessly in battle, and now he has lost his life."
"I don't understand these demons. Why do they want to occupy territories one by one? Why do they want to eat people one by one?"
Wang Cheng looked at Junior Sister Liu, who was walking gracefully with a fruit plate and snacks in her hands. "Isn't it nice to eat these fruit snacks? You have to eat flesh and blood! People are not meant to be eaten. Human emotions are what attract people the most."
As soon as Wang Cheng pulled Junior Sister Liu, she fell into his arms.
"Senior Brother." Junior Sister Liu's body went limp and her face turned red.
"Life is interesting only if it is this way. Those stupid demons coveted the position of the Lord of Dongming Mountain, but they were afraid of me and took the initiative to let me be the Lord of Dongming Mountain. In fact...for so many years, I have never cared about this position."
Wang Cheng hugged Junior Sister Liu, "All I care about is enjoying this and becoming a Heavenly Demon."
"How do I become a demon?"
Wang Cheng thought.
He was also very troubled. He had already reached the limit of the Earthly Demon, but he could not break through to the Heavenly Demon level.
But he had a feeling that if he wanted to become a demon, he had to find it in this world! So he came to the most populous place in Cheng'an Prefecture - the city! He had been living in seclusion in the city. People thought that the city was the place where many demon hunters gathered and it was the safest place.
But in fact, the most terrifying demon, 'Lord of Dongming Mountain', has always lived here.
"Brother, what are you thinking about?" asked Junior Sister Liu.
"I'm hesitating." Wang Cheng said softly, "I'm worried that my junior sister won't..."
Junior Sister Liu whispered, "Junior Sister is willing."
Wang Cheng smiled.
…
The Qinghu Demon, one of the five great demons, was killed in Xiaoyue Lake, and the news quickly spread throughout the city!
The name of the demon-conqueror 'Wu Ming' has also been discussed by countless people, and it is generally recognized that he is one of the most powerful demon-conquerors in Cheng'an Prefecture.
"Master, the residence of Brother Wu Ming is in front." Zhao Zhen came to the outside of Xu Jingming's house with an old man in high spirits. "Brother Wu Ming and I have known each other since childhood. We also came to the capital from Bai County together and saved everyone in the caravan."
"Mr. Wu is the most outstanding figure in the entire city. Will he meet us?" The old man was a little worried. Although he was a martial arts master-level figure ranked among the top in the city, in the demon-suppressing world, after all, the 'demon-suppressor' had the highest status.
"Don't worry, Brother Wu Ming is not that kind of person." Zhao Zhen said confidently.
At the gate of the house in front, many people came to visit Mr. Wu Ming.
"My master won't see any visitors." The gatekeeper Liu Fu blocked all of them from entering the house. "Don't embarrass a servant like me. My master is a demon hunter. He is devoted to comprehending the secret method of demon hunting and doesn't want to see any outsiders."
"this……"
These people are quite helpless.
"Please inform me." Zhao Zhen stepped forward and said, "I am Zhao Zhen, a good friend of Brother Wu Ming. I am here to visit with my master."
"You are Zhao Zhen?" Liu Fu chuckled, "I've heard from Master Qi that you and Master came to the capital together."
"Yes." Zhao Zhen immediately felt proud.
"I'll go in and pass on the message. You wait here." Liu Fu immediately went in to pass on the message. Xu Jingming didn't like socializing, so most strangers were kept out.
Soon Liu Fu came out: "Brother Zhao Zhen, you and your master go in."
"Thank you."
Zhao Zhen immediately took his master in.
He was bragging in the martial arts academy about his relationship with Wu Ming. His master found out and asked him to introduce him to Mr. Wu Ming.
"Zhao Zhen."
At the back garden, Wu Qi stopped the two of them and said with a smile, "The young master is meeting the Lord of the Mansion. Wait until the Lord of the Mansion leaves before you go over."
"Okay, okay." Zhao Zhen and his master nodded immediately and looked into the distance.
In the distant pavilion, two people can indeed be seen sitting and chatting. They are Xu Jingming and the Lord of Cheng'an Mansion.
…
"I understand everything about you and the Chen family. Do you want me to mediate? With Brother Wu Ming's current status and strength, he can naturally take over the Chen family and become the head of the Chen family." said the Lord of the Mansion.
Xu Jingming said calmly: "I will never go back in this life, and please tell the master of the house -"
"Please speak." The palace lord said politely.
"Helping the Chen family means making an enemy of me, Wu Ming!" Xu Jingming said calmly.
The palace lord was shocked.
So cruel?
"This matter involves the grudge between me and the Chen family." Xu Jingming said. In fact, this was the original body's obsession! When he knew that the Chen family moved Chen Qi's mother's grave, the original body's obsession became extremely turbulent.
At that time, he decided in his heart that he must do a good job in dealing with the Chen family so that his obsession would fade away.
"The original body's obsession is quite simple."
"Make him stand out and become famous. Make his father and the Chen family regret it and never go back even if they beg him to do so." Xu Jingming only needs to give a simple push to accomplish all this.
The mansion master nodded in understanding: "The Chen family has indeed gone too far. By the way, what about the Wu family? Does Mr. Wu Ming want to help the Wu family return to the city?"
"How is the Wu family now?" Xu Jingming asked.
" It is certain that they should have fled to the Dongliang Mountain area in the south." The palace master said, "The Wu family actually offended a big shot. As long as you, brother Wu Ming, are willing to come forward, the face of the top demon hunter... all parties must give it, it will not be difficult for the Wu family to clear the name."
Xu Jingming nodded: "Thank you for your help, Lord."
The Wu family prospered because of him, so will the Chen family feel even more regretful?
…
Bai County, Chen family, the county magistrate visited in person.
The old patriarch of the Chen family, Chen Shian and several other members of the Chen family came to greet them.
"Lord Wang, please take a seat." The old patriarch was very polite.
"I won't sit down." The county magistrate said calmly, "I'm here just to pass on a message."
The Chen family members were a little confused.
"Mr. Wu Ming said that if we help the Chen family, we will be his enemy." The county magistrate smiled at the Chen family, "Mr. Wu Ming is the Chen Qi you expelled from the Chen family! Of course, he is now the most powerful figure in the entire Cheng'an Prefecture."
"What did he do?" The old patriarch felt something was wrong.
"Three days ago, the Green Lake Demon God ambushed Mr. Wu Ming by the Xiaoyue Lake in the prefectural city, but was killed by Mr. Wu Ming single-handedly within ten breaths." The county magistrate said, "From now on, there is no Green Lake Demon God in Cheng'an Prefecture."
"Kill the Qinghu Demon God by yourself?" The old patriarch's face changed.
"Since Mr. Wu Ming has made it known, no big family in Cheng'an Prefecture will cooperate with you anymore." The county magistrate looked at them and said, "Your Chen family is finished."
The old patriarch turned pale.
"Rebellious son, rebellious son!" Chen Shian's face turned pale, "How dare he do this!"
The Chen family is finished, so won’t his happy days be over?
“Bang!”
The old patriarch turned around and slapped Chen Shian hard on the face, causing him to fall down.
"Chen Shian." The old patriarch pointed at Chen Shian with a ferocious look on his face and roared, "Come with me to the capital city in person and apologize to Mr. Wu Ming!"
"I won't go. I won't go." Chen Shian said.
"You must go!" The old patriarch's triangular eyes were cold and fierce. "I believe the entire Chen family agrees."
"agree."
"agree."
"Agree." All the Chen family members around stared at Chen Shian, as if they wanted to eat him alive.
Chen Shian's face turned pale.
"If you don't go, I will tie you up and take you there!" The old patriarch stared at Chen Shian fiercely.
