Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 411: Chapter 315: Farewell to Master Baitian, The Imperial Authority Manifests! (Double-Length)

Amidst the dense forests and mountain ridges, the army fought the demons for seven days, until rivers of blood flowed, and demon corpses lay everywhere, only then did they strike the drums and retreat, heading towards Mingju City.

”The battle is finally over; we should be able to rest a bit.” Fu Yuan gazed at the increasingly close Mingju City, relieved.

The intensity of killing demons for seven days was such that even a steel-bodied person couldn’t withstand it.

Fu Yuan’s armor was soaked in demon blood, battered and worn.

This was already the fifth set of armor he had changed these days; the previous ones were all destroyed in battle.

The other soldiers were no different, their large sabers nicked, and long spears broken.

The army brought many swords, spears, and armor, but after seven days, they were almost all used up, showing how intense the battles were.

On the other hand, Song Changming was in somewhat better condition, as he had been refining the blood qi essence within him whenever he had free time these days.

Therefore, the longer the battle lasted, the better his state became; his qi power was abundant, and his battle prowess and might grew even stronger!

Heaven knows how many demons he had slain in these days; probably countless.

At this moment, riding on his warhorse, Song Changming was like a volcano ready to erupt, with boiling qi blood.

Every drop of blood flowing in his body was as hot as molten magma!

This was due to the excessive refining of demon beast qi blood recently, as his physique hadn’t fully adapted to the surge of power, even unable to control his aura freely.

Currently, his usual qi power reached four and a half dragons!

This number might not sound overwhelming at first, but in terms of force, it meant he had gained over eighty thousand jin of qi power in just seven days!

This was why he struggled to fully adapt and control his current physical state.

Just because the surge was too rapid, there was almost no progressive process for him to adapt.

Each day was equivalent to months of body refinement results, and seven days were akin to more than two years of arduous training!

”Indeed, it’s over,” Song Changming sighed.

His tone was absent of Fu Yuan’s relief, instead carrying a hint of nostalgia and reluctance that Fu Yuan couldn’t comprehend.

Now that it’s over, Song Changming didn’t know if there would be such a satisfying demon extermination operation again.

Finding such a large cluster of demon swarms again would likely not be easy.

”Perhaps the Six States, long occupied by the demon race and fierce beasts, could become my paradise...” Song Changming mused silently.

However, he only considered it for a moment, not intending to really go there alone to slay demons.

In these seven days, the reason he could slay so many demons without mishaps was not only because of his own strength but even more due to the army’s might.

Against demon generals and fierce creatures he couldn’t match, there were army generals to suppress them, unrelated to him, and everything was under control.

Yet if he went alone to the Six States controlled by the demon race, not only would the danger increase, but he would also lack the protection of a human army, which was tantamount to seeking death.

Even though demon blood was good, one must obtain it with caution, not recklessly...

As Mingju City drew nearer and Song Changming was pondering, suddenly, dark clouds gathered above.

Soon, a gentle rain began to fall.

The rain was cold, soaking the clothes and armor of the soldiers, causing many to shiver, feeling the rain and wind from the sky even colder.

”Why did it suddenly start raining?” Fu Yuan asked, a bit puzzled.

The rain came too abruptly, seemingly out of place.

Song Changming frowned, a gleam in his eyes, scanning the sky where the winds converged.

A few wisps of demon qi emanated from it, particularly eye-catching!

”Hmm?!” Wang Tianshuang, at the forefront, instantly showed a cold look, evil qi flickering between his brows.

”What demon is this?”

Wang Tianshuang’s voice thundered to the sky, summoning a bolt of celestial thunder to strike down, ripping open a hole in the dark clouds as if a sack was torn open by hand.

A figure then descended from the dark cloud.

The person wore a Taoist robe, pale skin with sprouting fleshy buds, and four eyes on his face, collectively locking gazes with Wang Tianshuang.

His appearance instantly released a torrential demon qi.

The terrifying pressure was like a Demon God descending upon the world. ℴ

Song Changming’s pupils contracted suddenly, recognizing this old Taoist at a glance as the scoundrel who had captured him for alchemy that day.

”Little kid, we meet again!”

Master Baitian’s gaze moved away from Wang Tianshuang and quickly locked onto Song Changming.

”Last time you got away and caused me to lose a furnace of top-grade medicinal materials. Today you should come back with me to make up for it properly.”

As these words fell, Song Changming instantly understood that this scoundrel had come specifically to capture him today.

”Master Baitian, trespassing in Yun Province and attempting to forcibly abduct people before our eyes!” Wang Tianshuang’s face turned equally grim, scolding.

Many sensitive generals could sense that the target of this half-human, half-demon old Taoist was Song Changming.

And this old Taoist’s power...

”Great Demon!” Xing Tiexin was also shaken, retreating to Song Changming’s side.

”Changming, how did you offend such a Great Demon?”

Hearing this, Song Changming pursed his lips and recounted the time he was captured for alchemy.

”Outrageous!” Fu Yuan listened alongside, his face full of anger.

In full view, attempting to capture someone for alchemy, and it’s their Human Race general at that, was truly lawless!

”He is Master Baitian from Baitian Temple, Changming, with just the Grand Marshal, you might not be safe.” Yang Zhen heard Song Changming and quickly stepped in front of him, speaking in a particularly solemn tone.

Song Changming took a deep breath, nodded, and said, ”I understand.”

The opponent was indeed too powerful, being targeted by such a Great Demon was like a max-level boss blocking the entry-level village, one could imagine the treacherous situation.

Even though positioned within the army...
