King of Creation-Chapter 1606 - 1591: A Different Black Wolf

"Report!"

"Grand Marshal, Hei Qi’s army on the left flank was attacked by over ten Green Armored Demon Souls at the Dark Palace Realm. Requesting Grand Marshal for reinforcements!"

Within the Commander Hall, the urgent report from the Messenger Soldier echoed. The Demon Marshal’s Avatar, who had just returned and hadn’t sat down yet, asked without lifting his head, "Location!" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"Report, Grand Marshal, southwest direction, four thousand miles west of Killing Ghost Castle..."

Before the Messenger Soldier could finish speaking, blood light flashed in the Commander Hall and Ye Zhen’s Demon Marshal Avatar suddenly disappeared.

Even though the Messenger Soldier had witnessed this scene hundreds and thousands of times in the past month, each time he saw it, his gaze would become infinitely respectful!

An hour later, with a flash of blood light, the Demon Marshal Avatar reappeared in the Commander Hall. But this time, the aura of the Demon Marshal Avatar showed a clear increase.

It seemed he was approaching the Green Armored Demon Souls’ base camp, initially rarely seen Dark Palace Realm Demon Souls appeared all at once, with sixteen of them.

However, while Dark Palace Realm Demon Souls are quite challenging for Hei Qi and his troops, for Demon Marshal Avatar whose cultivation had already reached the peak of the Fourth Stage of Realm King Realm, it wasn’t a difficult task.

Just taking a stroll.

Incidentally, the Demon Marshal Avatar didn’t mind the trouble and harvested at least ten thousand Green Armored Demon Souls’ lives, greatly enhancing the power of the War Soul Blood Flag.

During this month, the War Soul Blood Flag had been significantly supplemented. Eight days ago, the Blood Flag’s grade had progressed from a Low Grade Suppression Artifact to a Supreme Suppression Artifact.

Yet, after eight more days of supplementing daily, with Demon Soul Essence absorbed reaching not less than ten thousand, and all high-level Demon Souls.

Once achieving the Supreme Suppression Artifact grade, there was no further movement in the Blood Flag’s grade.

All absorbed Demon Soul Essence seemed to disappear into the vast sea, almost making Ye Zhen believe the War Soul Blood Flag had reached its limit if not for sensing the increase in strength within the Blood Flag.

Ye Zhen remains uncertain whether the War Soul Blood Flag can break through the Supreme Suppression Artifact level and potentially rise to the Acquired Spirit Treasure level.

Nonetheless, the absorbed Demon Soul Essence cannot be endlessly filled like dropping stones into the sea; it must be utilized to enhance strength.

Enhance the strength of the Demon Marshal Avatar and the Demon Soul Army.

A few days ago, Ye Zhen deliberated with Purple Spirit and Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou regarding ancient relics of the Ancient Demon God Temple.

Golden Flower Demon Lord Jii Hua from the Royal Family of the Three-eyed Demon Clan mentioned that the Ancient Demon God Temple conceals a relic of an Ancient Demon God’s inheritance.

The Ancient Demon God, a fearsome entity capable of annihilation and reversing galaxies.

With such an inheritance from a terrifying entity within the Ancient Demon God Temple, any Martial Artist would likely seek it relentlessly before questioning its cultivation potential.

It is a common trait among Martial Artists, including Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen also wants to acquire this Ancient Demon God’s inheritance. Only after obtaining it will he consider the cultivation feasibility.

The issue is that upon his last departure, Ye Zhen specifically assigned Hei Er a secret task—to dispatch elite scouts in search of potential locations of the Ancient Demon God’s inheritance within the Ancient Demon God Temple.

Over three years, Hei Er deployed thousands of elite scouts to explore unoccupied areas within the Ancient Demon God Temple.

Whenever scouts perished or vanished, further scouts were dispatched for exploration.

Three years have passed, and ninety percent of the Ancient Demon God Temple, now the Demon Soul Realm, has been explored. Unexplored areas remain the core dominion of other Demon Soul army sectors.

Still, potential locations of the Ancient Demon God’s inheritance have not been discovered.

After consulting with Purple Spirit and Mirage Dragon Primordial Spirit Achou, who has complex experiences, two conclusions emerged.

The first is that the Ancient Demon God’s relic could be within those core territories of the Demon Soul army. conquering those areas may unveil the inheritance site.

The second possibility is that the inheritance will only appear under specific conditions.

Because according to Ye Zhen, Golden Flower Demon Lord Jii Hua’s priority upon arrival at the Ancient Demon God Temple was to unify the Demon Soul Realm rather than indiscriminately searching for the Ancient Demon God inheritance.

It implies Jii Hua, a Demon Clan royal, knows something, and indirectly suggests the path to acquire the Ancient Demon God’s relic requires unifying the Demon Soul Realm.

Moreover, special conditions upon creation are feasible for unique small worlds like the Demon Soul Realm.

Having deliberated, Ye Zhen, Purple Spirit and even Achou, lean towards the second conclusion.

To find or acquire the Ancient Demon God inheritance in the Demon Soul Realm, the first action is unifying the entire realm.

Completing the unification of the Demon Soul Realm is not feasible solo despite the exceptional power of the Demon Marshal Avatar.

It requires collective efforts.

Currently, Ye Zhen’s Demon Soul Army is somewhat weak.

Perhaps Ye Zhen’s Black Armored Demon Soul Army, forged through successive victories, displays disproportionate strength, prompting numerous Red, White, and Green Armored armies to show formidable Dark Palace Realm experts.

Yet, within Ye Zhen’s Demon Soul Army, there are only nine experts at the Dark Palace Realm presently.

Among them, six people received rewards from Ye Zhen for their meritorious service over the past month, using the War Soul Blood Flag to enhance their Cultivation.

Therefore, given that the War Soul Blood Flag is currently elevated to the Acquired Spirit Treasure level, the priority is to enhance the power of the Demon Marshal’s Avatar and the Demon Soul Army under his command.

For the Demon Marshal’s Avatar, it’s manageable. Each day, a portion of the Demon Soul Essence devoured by the War Soul Blood Flag is injected into the Demon Marshal’s Avatar.

Even for the Demon Marshal’s Avatar, currently at the Middle Stage of the Realm King Realm, each advancement requires a massive amount of Demon Soul Essence.

However, after a month of accumulation, the Demon Marshal’s Avatar’s Cultivation steadily progressed from the Third Stage to the Peak of the Fourth Stage of the Realm King Realm.

It is just one step away from breaking through to the Fifth Stage of the Realm King Realm.

"Convey my command, instruct the officers with meritorious service to return to the Commander Hall according to their service rank, where I will personally reward them and enhance their Cultivation."

"Additionally, notify the three Commanders that they should return to the Commander Hall when available," Ye Zhen ordered.

"Understood!"

In the ensuing time, over 150 meritorious soldiers gradually arrived, received rewards from the Demon Marshal’s Avatar, and gradually departed.

Half a day later, the Demon Marshal’s Avatar closed his eyes somewhat wearily.

The Demon Marshal’s Avatar itself would not get tired; it was Ye Zhen’s mind that was fatigued. Balancing both tasks, Ye Zhen found the process quite exhausting over the first half of the day.

In half a day, the Demon Marshal’s Avatar elevated 103 Thousand-man Generals from the Early-stage to the Late Stage of the Divine Communication Realm.

Fifty Ten Thousand Man Generals were directly elevated from the Seventh or Eighth Stage of the Divine Communication Realm to varying stages between the First and Third Stage of the Dark Palace Realm, depending on their merits.

Three Corps Leaders were promoted from the Second Stage of the Dark Palace Realm to the Sixth Stage.

Enhancing these individuals did not consume much of the War Soul Blood Flag’s power; the greatest expenditure was during the strengthening of Hei Er, Hei Qi, and Hei Qi.

In the past month, these three had gradually increased to around the Sixth Stage of the Dark Palace Realm; today, Ye Zhen elevated their Cultivation to the Late Stage of the Ninth Stage of the Dark Palace Realm.

The energy spent from the War Soul Blood Flag on these three was triple that used for the advancement of those mid-high level officers.

Continuing to enhance their Cultivation might cause the War Soul Blood Flag’s Grade to fall again.

"Black Wolf!" After a brief rest, the Demon Marshal’s Avatar opened his eyes again. "I’m here!" A lean and fierce Demon Soul Soldier filled with Killing Qi appeared behind the Demon Marshal’s Avatar in response.

"Go, carry my Blood Flag and patrol the front lines. Unless faced with enemies the three Commanders cannot handle, or those causing heavy casualties to our soldiers, do not disturb me for the next three days," Ye Zhen instructed.

"Understood!" Black Wolf, exuding a ravenous aura, saluted crisply.

"Go!"

Ye Zhen waved his hand, and through the activation of Divine Sense, the War Soul Blood Flag enveloped Black Wolf and instantly disappeared.

The Black Wolf was an anomaly Ye Zhen discovered in the Demon Soul Realm a month ago.

About half a month ago, as the Demon Marshal’s Avatar headed to support an army, a figure amidst the intense battle caught his eye.

All Black Armored Demon Soul Army soldiers used the same Cultivation Techniques and tactics in battle, varying only by their Cultivation level, which awakened higher-level Martial Skills and Combat Skills.

Even Hei Er, Hei Qi, and Hei Jiu among the three Commanders were no different.

However, Black Wolf’s Combat Skills during battle differed from those of the other Demon Soul Soldiers.

After the battle, Ye Zhen specifically summoned Black Wolf.

To Ye Zhen’s surprise, Black Wolf’s eloquence and Spirit Wisdom rivaled the three Commanders and even showed more individuality.

The individuality of a wolf!

According to Black Wolf, he naturally awoke the Combat Skill known as the Battle Wolf Demon Technique. Upon testing it, he found the Battle Wolf Demon Technique to be more fitting and powerful.

This enabled him to effortlessly slay three Demon Soul Soldiers of equal Cultivation at the Fifth Stage of the Divine Communication Realm.

The discovery amazed Ye Zhen, as it was his first time encountering such an anomaly within the Demon Soul Army.

Ye Zhen attempted to have Black Wolf teach the Battle Wolf Demon Technique to other Demon Soul Soldiers, but even including the three Commanders like Hei Er, no one could learn it.

This made Ye Zhen quite intrigued and sparked some ideas for prioritizing the development of Black Wolf.

Ye Zhen wondered if, upon his departure from the Demon Soul Realm this time, he could take the unique Black Wolf out of the realm.

This was an attempt towards utilizing the power of the Ancient Demon God Temple in the outside world in the future.

"If I could take him out, it would be significant for me."

Murmuring to himself, the Demon Marshal’s Avatar sat cross-legged on the commander’s seat. Ye Zhen immediately withdrew ninety percent of the Divine Sense from the Demon Marshal’s Avatar to his main body, leaving only a thread to maintain it.

The reason was simple; Ye Zhen’s main body had reached a crucial moment in the ongoing refining of the Demon Spirit Phantom over the recent days.
