Starting With 100 Million Lives-Chapter 474 The Lord of the Earth Department Has Such a Grand Display

Chapter 474: Chapter 474 The Lord of the Earth Department Has Such a Grand Display

This Immortal Demon Mountain has always had armies stationed from both sides.

After all, the closer one gets to the summit, the denser the Immortal Power and the Power of Rules become, virtually a Grotto Heaven Blessed Land.

Therefore, many Demon Kings and Quasi-Emperors from the Demon Realm are usually stationed here.

The Immortal Realm on the opposite side is similar.

Before Brother Cheng set out, it caused an uproar throughout the entire Demon Realm, so the stationed armies on Immortal Demon Mountain naturally already knew.

When he arrived, there were four Quasi-Emperors leading over a hundred Demon Kings to greet him.

"Greetings, Lord of the Earth Division!"

"I am Bai Qi, the Realm Master of Huangye Realm!"

A mid-stage Quasi-Emperor with seven tails descended from the clouds, bowing to him.

Beside him, the other three early-stage Quasi-Emperors and Demon Race experts were from the Bear Race, Leopard Race, and Shark Race, respectively.

"I am Bear Wu, Lord of Black Rider Territory!"

"I am Bao Tun, Lord of Congyun Territory!"

"I am Shark Rong, Lord of Celestial Wave Territory!"

Behind these four Quasi-Emperors, the over hundred Demon Kings also paid their respects to the Lord of the Earth Division.

With the Earth Demon Order in hand, all Quasi-Emperors lowered themselves by one level in front of Brother Cheng.

"Good, good, good!"

Seeing the other side greet him, he wore a beaming smile, feeling quite dignified.

"It seems you have no understanding of Immortal Demon Mountain."

In the shadows, Cang Ling saw his lack of awareness and transmitted some knowledge to him.

"Opposite Immortal Demon Mountain on the Immortal Realm side are 108,000 fortifications, and on our Demon Realm side, there are 36,000 fortifications."

"Each fortification is led by a Demon King Commander!"

"Every 36 fortifications form a territory, with a Lord appointed as an early-stage Quasi-Emperor."

"Every 36 territories form a realm, with a Realm Master appointed as a mid-stage Quasi-Emperor, and Yikong was previously a Realm Master."

"Immortal Demon Mountain is divided into three major defense lines: left, middle, and right; each battlefield oversees more than ten realms, and we currently fall within the left route battlefield area."

"The left route battlefield is jointly ruled by five late-stage Quasi-Emperors, known as Monarchs!"

"Monarchs?"

Brother Cheng was slightly amused by the title, wondering why it sounded similar to an earthly Emperor.

"Heh..."

Cang Ling teased, "You still have time to laugh at others, yet you don’t even know you’re being underestimated."

"You are the Lord of the Earth Division, above all Quasi-Emperors."

"In theory, when you personally go to war, not only should the five Monarchs of the left route battlefield, but also Monarchs of the middle and right routes, and even the heads of the Immortal Demon Mountain defense line should all come to pay their respects and take orders from you!"

Brother Cheng was somewhat surprised: "I actually have this much face?"

Just how much authority did that position of Lord of the Earth Division he obtained have?

Thinking back, the original plan was just to secure a legitimate identity so he could infiltrate the Demon Realm.

"What did you think?"

Cang Ling said leisurely, "The heads of the Immortal Demon Mountain defense line, Monarchs, Realm Masters, and Lords are all appointed by the Grand Demon Palace, and they can all be considered your subordinates."

"As for the Gate Masters, Demon King Commanders for each fortification, they’re not even worthy of your personal attention. They are typically appointed through self-arrangement from below."

"It’s just that you’ve been so lazy and oblivious that you don’t know the extent of your power."

Brother Cheng rubbed his chin. Thinking about it now, he indeed was underestimated.

Not a single Monarch came to greet him, not even more than one Realm Master, and only three Lords.

Probably they came just because they were close by and had no choice.

Indeed, those familiar with the inner workings, Cang Ji, Yikong, and Mo Yang, were all furious.

"Where are the five Monarchs of the left route battlefield?"

"Why is it just you?"

At this, the seven-tailed Quasi-Emperor Bai Qi did not panic but casually offered an excuse.

"We beg the Lord of the Earth Division for understanding. Recently, the war situation is tense, so several Monarchs and other Realm Masters are busy with official duties."

"If we leave our respective defense zones, what if the Immortal Realm attacks, what then?"

The Fox Race is naturally a staunch ally of the Qilin Race.

Especially since recently the Nine-tailed Emperor inexplicably became the Lord of the Celestial Division.

He naturally wouldn’t take the Azure Dragon Race seriously.

Yikong sneered: "What tense war situation? Do you think I haven’t been on the front line?"

"The Immortal Realm, at most, sends a few Immortal Kings to harass us. Quasi-Emperors don’t make a move even once in several billion years!"

"I don’t believe they can’t find the time to come."

Bai Qi and the other three Quasi-Emperors exchanged glances.

Then Bai Qi said ambiguously: "You’ve already retired, and you don’t know the latest front-line situation."

"You!"

Yikong was about to get angry, but Brother Cheng stopped him.

"Alright, alright, we’re here to fight, not hold an inspection."

He looked at the seven-tailed Quasi-Emperor.

"So, you’re all under my command now, right?"

When the Lord of the Earth Division sets out, the military region must unconditionally follow dispatches and accompany him into battle.

Bai Qi saw he didn’t burst out in anger, assuming he didn’t dare to tear faces and chose compromise, hence his heart settled more calmly.

"Reporting to the Lord of the Earth Division, due to the tension in some defense areas, most of the 36 Lords under my command in Huangye Realm have been deployed to other defense areas."

"Currently, the forces that can be assembled are only these Quasi-Emperors and Demon Kings present."

This was blatant lying.

There are 36 Quasi-Emperors under Huangye Realm’s 36 domains. Even if there were war, it’s impossible to only have these three Lords and a hundred-some Demon Kings left.

Brother Cheng was indifferent, merely asking back, "Oh, so?"

"So, the forces you can command are just these troops."

Yikong couldn’t hold back, furiously pointing at Bai Qi: "You’re talking gibberish, deliberately sabotaging the Lord of the Earth Division!"

Bai Qi retorted defiantly: "Yikong, don’t falsely accuse us!"

The other three Quasi-Emperors chimed in.

"Exactly, Yikong, if you continue speaking nonsense, we will report to the Celestial Division demanding an explanation!"

"For cooperating so much, we are accused without reason; that’s going too far."

"We’ve always been loyal to the Grand Demon Palace, bled for the front lines, and fought for the Demon Realm!"

"The Lord of the Celestial Division will surely give us justice!"

Their words were thinly veiled attempts to use the Nine-tailed Demon Emperor of the Celestial Division against Brother Cheng.

"Alright, alright, I fully appreciate your loyalty."

Brother Cheng seemed completely unaware, still smiling, comforting the four.

"Don’t feel wronged. Follow me and work hard, and great rewards await!"

Bai Qi and the other four Quasi-Emperors were left dumbfounded.

They had initially waited for Brother Cheng to get angry, then slowly prevaricate, set invisible traps for him, leaving him with nowhere to vent.

This was exactly the instruction from the five Monarchs above.

The intention was not to cooperate with his actions to the utmost, feigning compliance and secretly undermining him.

It was known that previous Lords of the Earth Division were always from the Qilin Race, making it clear which faction led this area.

They were eager to see the new Lord of the Earth Division suffer defeat.

In the end, Brother Cheng barely reacted, rendering many prepared moves unnecessary.

In confusion, they could only follow him up Immortal Demon Mountain.

All the way, the few Quasi-Emperors communicated secretly among themselves.

"Is he just pretending?"

"Not likely, I have a feeling he truly doesn’t understand anything."

"No way, being the Lord of the Earth Division."

"Stay cautious; keep yourself safe in the rear, let him go forward and take risks."

"Understood, we won’t foolishly rush ahead."
