Chapter 2134: Chapter 2119: Liuu Feng’s Discovery

To be honest, handing over Shan Wei’s Innate Divine Soul left Ye Zhen with a sense of unwillingness.

However, the Demon Clan’s military threat was not fabricated, nor could it be taken lightly. Especially with such a large-scale military threat, no one dared to ignore it.

Moreover, Ye Zhen understood the underlying intention of Governor Ni Feng. With Dingbian Fortress located within his Blood River Fortress defense area, if the Demon Clan launched a massive attack, and he was at odds with Shan Zhengchun, the Fort Lord of Dingbian Fortress, it might very well impact the overall situation.

Under these circumstances, Ye Zhen was compelled to compromise.

While he had destroyed Shan Wei’s physical body, causing him to suffer endless torment within an hour, far beyond any pain he had experienced in his lifetime.

However, letting him go just like that was still too easy. Ye Zhen had to consider the hundreds of valuable lives and the dignity of dozens of his brothers.

Thus, when releasing Shan Wei, Ye Zhen applied a little trick.

The Ancient Demon God Yany Tu, despite superficial mastery over cultivating various negative auras, his true specialty lay in Divine Soul Power.

Furthermore, Yany Tu’s Divine Soul Secret Technique leaned towards the sinister side, with various malicious and evil secret techniques, along with numerous tips on using Divine Soul Power.

Apart from those powerful malicious and evil secret techniques, most of the Divine Soul Secret Techniques and tips, with Ye Zhen’s Primordial Spirit Power, could be executed smoothly after an in-depth study.

When handing over Shan Wei’s Innate Divine Soul, Ye Zhen seized the opportunity to apply two fairly vicious secret techniques on Shan Wei.

The first secret technique is called Endless Nightmares, considered a minor torture technique by Yany Tu.

Someone affected by this technique will experience endless nightmares once they fall asleep, eventually leading to an aversion to sleep.

With constant distress and nightmares day and night, both the physical body and Divine Soul will gradually weaken. Without spiritual medicines or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to supplement Divine Soul Power, even the Divine Soul Origin will deteriorate, drastically reducing lifespan.

The second secret technique was even more sinister, named Severed Yang!

Through a strange restriction technique, whenever Shan Wei harbors the slightest desire, an inexplicable chill will arise deep within the Innate Divine Soul, instinctively causing a shiver, extinguishing desire instantly.

In other words, this technique could render Shan Wei impotent for life, as long as the technique is not lifted.

More importantly, this minor technique created by the Ancient Demon God Yany Tu is exceedingly clever, directly imposed within the Innate Divine Soul. Unless carefully examined by an entity of Yany Tu’s level, the restriction is absolutely undetectable.

Making someone like Shan Wei impotent for life, plagued by endless nightmares, is also a significant punishment.

After handing over Shan Wei’s Innate Divine Soul, Ye Zhen’s Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea fully withdrew from Flying Sky Fort, rapidly returning to the Blood River Fortress.

"Grand Marshal, Dingbian Fortress’s hidden strength is rather exceptional, judging by today’s situation, their military power far exceeds what the Imperial Court allows."

"Now, as we’ve fallen out with them, if the Demon Clan’s army indeed strikes, Grand Marshal, we cannot remain unprepared!" Liuu Feng advised on the return journey.

"Leave this matter to Niu Er." Ye Zhen glanced at Niu Er, the leader of the scouts quietly positioned in a dark corner, hardly speaking unless necessary.

"I don’t require deep infiltration, but if Dingbian Fortress makes any notable move, especially mobilizing troops, inform me immediately, can you achieve this?"

"My lord, I can accomplish it, but it requires time, as Dingbian Fortress’s border control is stricter than my Great Zhou Dynasty’s registration system. Infiltration requires time." Niu Er replied.

"Alright, also, another fortress within my Blood River Fortress, the Black Earth Stronghold, must also undergo simultaneous infiltration and surveillance." Ye Zhen instructed.

"Rest assured, my lord, there won’t be any issues." Niu Er nodded affirmatively.

"By the way, Niu Er, Liuu Feng, how are your progress with refining the Heavenly Patrol Divine General Blood Refining Martial Soul Bead I bestowed upon you two?" Ye Zhen inquired again.

Before coming, Ren Venerate Emperor Ji Long had given Ye Zhen ten Heavenly Patrol Divine General Blood Refining Martial Soul Beads, which he had selected for loyal and trustworthy Heavenly Patrol Guards who could accept the Soul-locking Technique to refine.

Their cultivation was generally between the Third Stage and Fifth Stage of the Realm King Realm, and due to the accelerated process, it would take time for them to fully utilize the power of the Heavenly Patrol Divine General.

However, Ye Zhen hadn’t casually distributed the five incredibly precious late-stage Realm King Realm Heavenly Patrol Divine General Blood Refining Martial Soul Beads.

Finally, after consulting Liuu Feng, Niu Er, and Gu Tieqi, he gave each of them a late-stage Realm King Realm Blood Refining Martial Soul Bead.

Previously, Liuu Feng, Niu Er, and Gu Tieqi’s cultivation ranged around early and middle stages of the Dark Palace Realm.

Such cultivation was barely sufficient in the military camp but somewhat inadequate for the Human-Demon Battlefield.

However, their cultivation, particularly under numerous mundane affairs, couldn’t be quickly enhanced.

Even if they focused solely on cultivation, the fastest it might take them sixty years to advance their cultivation to the Realm King Realm.

As for advancing one’s cultivation to the Late Stage of the Realm King Realm, it would likely take hundreds of years, which is hard to say.

Their qualifications are average at best, lacking the vast family resources and top-tier cultivation techniques, making their cultivation speed naturally slow.

All three of them decided to refine the Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl of the Heavenly Patrol Divine General simultaneously just after hearing Ye Zhen’s introduction of it.

As for the aftereffects of refining this Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl, such as the doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled difficulty in breaking through to the Dao Realm, they didn’t consider it at all.

As Liuu Feng put it, even without this Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl, the hope of breaking through to the Dao Realm in this lifetime is slim to none.

If they can advance their cultivation to the Late Stage of the Realm King Realm a few hundred years earlier, then there might be a possibility of breaking through to the Dao Realm with those extra years.

What’s more, on the Human-Demon Battlefield, the chances of survival for a Heavenly Patrol Divine General at the Late Stage of the Realm King Realm are several hundred times higher than for a Martial Artist at the Early Stage of the Dark Palace Realm.

More importantly, a Heavenly Patrol Divine General at the Late Stage of the Realm King Realm, with proper utilization of strength, can confront even Early Dao Realm experts, especially when it comes to escaping and survival, remaining unscathed even before Dao Realm experts.

In view of this, all three of them unhesitatingly chose to refine this Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl of the Heavenly Patrol Divine General at the Late Stage of the Realm King Realm.

However, although this is a fast-track method, it’s not something that can be completed in a day—it involves a prolonged absorption and refining process.

The higher the level of the Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl, the longer the refining time.

Among the three, Niu Er and Liuu Feng, being the busiest with mundane affairs, have the slowest refining process.

Gu Tieqi, however, had already completely refined it a few days ago and successfully became a Heavenly Patrol Divine General at the Middle Stage of the Eighth Stage of the Realm King Realm.

Currently, he is continuously harnessing this newfound power, striving to exhibit full combat strength in the shortest possible time.

Niu Er and Liuu Feng, being slower, intrigued Ye Zhen as to what degree their cultivation would rise after refining that Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl.

"Reporting to the Grand Marshal, this subordinate recently elevated my cultivation to the Peak of the Seventh Stage of the Realm King Realm. However, this Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl still has a final bit left. I estimate it will take another ten days to half a month to complete the refinement, after which my cultivation should reach between the Middle Stage and Late Stage of the Eighth Stage of the Realm King Realm," Liuu Feng replied.

"Reporting, sir, my cultivation has already risen to the Middle Stage of the Eighth Stage of the Realm King Realm. However, my Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl still has power left. I estimate that once the refinement is complete, my cultivation might rise to the Ninth Stage of the Realm King Realm," Niu Er replied.

"One at the Middle-Late Stage and one at the Ninth Stage, not bad, not bad! If you can unleash your full combat power, our army will have two more significant fighting forces.

In this case, as signs of a major battle are emerging, take a day or two to cultivate in my Temporal Sequence Space, complete the refinement quickly to establish combat power," Ye Zhen ordered.

"Yes, sir!"

Ye Zhen has always felt that while his capable subordinates possess notable abilities, their cultivation has been lacking—though with this Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl, this deficiency is now addressed.

The remaining two Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearls have been assigned by Ye Zhen, one given to Wen Fuguo of the Dragon Alliance.

This individual is indeed a support genius, and given his origin in the Dragon Alliance, he is deserving of Ye Zhen’s trust. Being stationed in the rear to oversee, a Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl at the Late Stage of the Realm King Realm will make him even more effective.

Unlike the present, when, even in the rear providing strategies, he has to hide behind others to avoid becoming an assassination target.

The only regret for Ye Zhen is that this Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl of the Heavenly Patrol Divine General is not suitable for frontline engagements, so individuals like Che Ben, Zheng Dangshi, and others are unsuitable to refine it.

Otherwise, if several military commanders at the Late Stage of the Realm King Realm emerged among Ye Zhen’s forces, his command structure would be even more robust, instead of fragile and cautious as it is now.

But on the flipside, since there is a Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearl of the Heavenly Patrol Divine General, there must be other types of Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearls too.

With determination, Ye Zhen might find other suitable Blood Refining Martial Soul Pearls to rapidly enhance their cultivation and combat power.

An hour later, upon returning to the Blood River Fortress, Ye Zhen, while personally inspecting the wounded, received a formal military order from Governor Ni Feng.

Deploy elite teams to capture Demonic Clan scouts alive and quickly ascertain the recent intentions of the Demon Clan’s main army.

Ye Zhen, naturally, must promptly execute this type of military order, especially with a large number of Heavenly Patrol Divine Hunters and Divine Generals under his command. Over several days, numerous Demonic Clan scouts were captured alive, but after interrogation and soul-searching, little valuable intelligence was obtained.

On the fifth day of the major operations of the Demonic Clan scouts triggering a battle zone alert, Liuu Feng, rubbing his bloodshot eyes, hastily came to find Ye Zhen.

"Sir, this subordinate may have discovered something concerning, the situation might be very serious!" Liuu Feng’s face was solemn.
