Chapter 554
‘However, with that alone, the Hear Devil World can’t be regarded as a powerful enhancement at all . There’s no distinct difference between a Weapon Grandmaster and a Divine Lord . ’
The more Lu Sheng experimented, the more he felt that the Heart Devil World was merely a tough and mysterious material world . There was no unique enhancement for a Divine Lord .
With the lingering question in his mind, he returned to the Prime Devil Palace . After asking Xu Feila and the others about the time, he noticed that he had spent just three days in the Werewolf World .
In those three days, the Evil Spirits did not display any special changes . They seemed to be lying in wait .
He seized this opportunity to study the Heart Devil World by killing the Evil Spirits .
Time passed by slowly…
With the Evil Spirits being cleared away in great numbers, it was already winter . There were four days of snow, and the entire Autumn Moon County was a scene of white . The bloody scene that was created days ago had been completely concealed .
Lu Sheng had a rough idea about the size of the Heart Devil World now .
His Heart Devil World only spanned the area of the four residential buildings and a road which circled around them . Beyond that circle, it was all pitch-black darkness .
He attempted to walk toward the darkness, but after walking for a few hours into the dark, all he could see was still pitch-black darkness . There was nothing there .
Also, regardless how far he kept walking into the darkness, it would only take him a dozen breaths to return to the residential building .
His entire Heart Devil World was only the size of a football field . Every unit was occupied by the corpses of the people he killed . Some of them were humans, some of them were demons, and many of them were fiends .
They did not move . They maintained their appearance from right before their respective deaths .
All this time, Lu Sheng slaughtered a large number of Evil Spirits . He even attempted to pull them into his Heart Devil World . The results were that the Evil Spirits were not much different from other creatures . They would utterly lose their vitality in three breaths after being pulled into the world .
Vaguely, Lu Sheng seemed to have understood the powerfulness of a Weapon Grandmaster…
The warm teacup was as smooth and spotless as a piece of white jade . Emerald tea sat within the cup while emitting a faint aroma . A long tea leaf floated near the surface with its tip pointing downward . It resembled a small upturned spike .
Lu Sheng sat before the window and looked at the boundless snowy fields outside . He exhaled slightly .
‘After my breakthrough, I’ve pulled 100 creatures into my Heart Devil World already . This includes Evil Spirits, demons, and even devils . After killing so many, the Heart Devil World still remains unchanged… It looks like I’ll have to find some new opponents to experiment on,’ he pondered .
“Dong! Dong! Dong!”
The door of his study was being knocked on .
“Sect Master, the grand elder is here . ”
“Send him in,” Lu Sheng replied drily .
“Click . ”
His teacher, Liu Xianzi, sauntered into the study, looking slightly frail . It was clear that he had yet to recover from the grave injuries he’d suffered the other day .
“Currently, various locations are being quarantined . The Autumn Moon County is almost completely cleaned . However, we’ve lost too many civilians in the incident . Practically 90% of the population had been killed by the Evil Spirits . What do you plan to do next?”
“Did the county executive and the others send you to ask me this, Teacher?” Lu Sheng smiled .
“What county executive, that’s merely a title with no real power anymore . ” Liu Xianzi shook his head . “The civilians were almost wiped out . The survivors were either members of the great families or strong sects . The weak can’t even survive in this world . We’re feeling lost as well . If the Evil Spirits decide to swarm us, where should we go? As the sect master, you should be able to give us some directions by now . ”
“Where should we go?” Lu Sheng muttered to himself . “Amid the turbulence of today’s world, the Great Song and Great Yin are all afflicted by Devil Disasters and rampaging Evil Spirits . The people are in dire straits . Nobody can be lucky and avoid that fate . Only facing the challenges head on and protecting ourselves with strength can we have a chance at survival . ”
“So, you’re saying?” Liu Xianzi’s expression turned solemn .
“I plan to recruit more disciples,” Lu Sheng replied . “I want to give everyone equal opportunities at becoming stronger . They can join my Prime Devil Sect as long as their qualities are suitable . ”
“How’s that different from the three sects?” Liu Xianzi was puzzled .
“Of course it’s different . ” Lu Sheng smiled . “I plan to pick a location and build an ultimate safe zone . If a person qualifies to join my Prime Devil Sect, that person will have the right to bring three people into the safe zone . ”
“A linking system? That’s a good idea . ” Liu Xianzi nodded .
“However—”
“Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!”
Lu Sheng was not finished . His door was being knocked on urgently again .

“Sect Master! Urgent update from the field!” said a frantic female disciple from outside .
Lu Sheng adjusted his expression, and quickly responded, “Send it in,”
The door opened . A young female disciple with black hair and black pupils walked quickly into the study . She held up a dark golden envelope and placed it on the study’s table .
Lu Sheng stretched out a hand, and the envelope leapt into the air immediately . It fell into his hands .
Black Devil Qi spread out . The outer shell of the envelope immediately melted away, revealing the letter within it .
“The sun and the brilliant moon, the scorching sun burns the skies . Under the invasion of the Evil Spirits, the people under the heavens have no way to make a living and are in a serious situation . In order to save the people from this danger, the Golden Morning abode master the rising burner, Cheng Li, cordially invites fellow taoists to work together for this cause . ” The letter was signed off by the Sky Burning Taoist, Cheng Li .
“The Sky Burning Taoist, what an arrogant title . ” Lu Sheng raised his eyebrows . He casually handed over the letter to Liu Xianzi .
Liu Xianzi scanned it, and had a slight change in expression .
“I’ve heard of this Sky Burning Taoist before . The day before this, there had been rumors that he had single-handedly killed more than 100,000 Evil Spirits . It was only when the Evil Spirit King came to deal with him that he was stopped, but he was merely repelled . ”
“The Evil Spirit King? What rank is that?” Lu Sheng was intrigued . “This Great Yin is like a deep mountain . The Evil Spirit army has forced all of these powerful characters to show themselves with their advance . ”
“According to ordinary reckoning, it should be of the same rank as the man within the flames whom you’ve seen before,” Liu Xianzi said solemnly . “Little Sheng, don’t let your guard down . ”
“Mhm, I understand . ” Lu Sheng nodded . “If that’s true, then I reckon this Sky Burning Taoist is a new generation Weapon Grandmaster?”
Liu Xianzi shook his head, and said, “It’s not that easy to become a Weapon Grandmaster . I reckon he’s just an extreme expert among the Divine Lords . ”
“Yeah…” Lu Sheng smiled and placed the paper on the table .
“Do you plan to go?” Liu Xianzi asked .
“Of course… not . I’ll have to deal with the trouble here first . The one I killed in the Autumn Moon County last time was a Title Evil Spirit . There’s a more powerful being behind it,” said Lu Sheng as he shook his head .
“Are you confident?”
“Confident? Who knows . ” Lu Sheng shifted his gaze outside the window . His gaze seemed to have crossed the vast snowy fields as he looked at some unknown land somewhere .

“Smack!”
A small pebble fell onto the ground . Then, it rolled all the way to the edge of the cliff before finally landing softly on a large and rough clay-colored hand .
On the cliff wall that was not covered by snow, a strong-looking clay-colored man whose lower body was merged with the rocks while his upper body was bare retracted his right hand and looked at the pebble in his hand .
His upper body alone was more than ten meters in height . He had thick arms that were strong and tough like pre-weathered granite .
The man had ram-like curved horns on his head . They curled around each of his ears . His entire body seemed to be covered in a thick layer of dried mud, and every movement of his resulted in a large amount of yellow ash falling off .
“One great shark is dead . ”
The man’s lower body grew out of the rock like the figurehead of a ship . He raised his chin and looked in the direction of the faraway Autumn Moon County .
“It seems like Her Majesty was right to send me here ahead of time . As expected, her judgement was not wrong . This world holds much more powerful secrets compared to the other worlds . ”
“Bam!”
Far away, a large group of Evil Spirits flew away from the snowy grounds and scattered into the air .
“Master Jorah, the third army has fallen as well . When do you plan on making a move? We need powerful backup . ” A pure white Evil Spirit flew nearer from the faraway skies and reminded him with a sharp voice .
“Give me the precise location,” said the man in a low voice .
The Evil Spirit fell silent for a moment . Then, wisps of white Qi wafted out from its body, and plunged quickly into the heart of the man’s palm .
“Understood . Well then… let’s start with the nearest one . ” The man stretched his hands and grabbed onto the rock walls beside him . Then, he suddenly pulled himself out .
“Rumble…”
The loud sound of the vibration kept spreading outward . His entire lower half was forcibly pulled out of the granite wall . He did not have feet or blood and flesh . Instead, he had countless clay-colored roots .
Densely packed tendrils wriggled in the hundreds wantonly like the tentacles of countless octopi .

The man loosened his grip, and his body suddenly crashed downward . A large number of tendrils stabbed into the snow-covered ground below .
“Hiss…”
The instant the tendrils stabbed into the ground, the entire ground started to sizzle as if its moisture was being sucked away .
The Spiritual Essence of the entire ground was being continually devoured by the tendrils .
“Bam, bam, bam…”
Some parts of the ground suddenly caved in . The earth grew weaker by the second . It was even starting to show difficulty in withstanding the weight of the snow .
The man steadied himself and lifted his head to look in the direction of the Autumn Moon County . He started moving fast in that direction like a spider .
“Evil Spirit King Jorah!”
All of a sudden, two blood-colored shadows descended from the skies and barred the man’s way with precision . They dropped to the snowy ground .
The blood-colored radiance faded, revealing a male and female Divine Lord from the Blood Sun .
The man was bald and had a big and tall physique . There was a red triangular mark in between his eyes . The woman had a voluptuous body with prominent protrusions of the body . She wore a black dress, and her face was a mess of savage-looking scars as if she had been burnt .
“Is this it, Wuxin?” asked the woman with hesitation .
“That’s right . According to the Turquoise Conch Agency’s coordinates, this fellow is the most powerful Evil Spirit King in the area,” said Divine Lord Wuxin with a frown on his face . His expression was slightly solemn . “Sect Master Aurora Polaris has ordered me to return earlier to stop this guy . He’s capable of devouring the Spiritual Essence from the depths of the earth . Once he steals too much of the land’s Spiritual Essence, not an inch of grass will be able to grow here for hundreds of years . It’ll turn into a dead zone . ”
“Let’s do it together . We’ll make it quick,” the woman said with a nod . She had a bad feeling as she looked at Jorah’s huge body size .
“Alright . ”
Jorah looked down at the two little Divine Lords in front of him . His expression was slightly helpless .
“Actually, I’m an advocate of peace . Can we talk this through? You can go on kill whatever you have to kill, and I’ll do what I have to . Can’t we stay out of each other’s businesses?”
“It’s not up to you, big guy . ” Divine Lord Wuxin’s expression was cold . He lifted his right arm slowly, and his entire arm slowly turned into a dark red ruler .
