Chapter 625: Chapter 225: Witch Cultivator (2)

The spiritual liquid used by Transforming Force Martial Artists.

Cultivators also use spiritual liquid, or absorb spiritual energy.

Both energy sources used for cultivation are essentially the same, even if the power cultivated shows some differences, they should not be far apart.

’If a Transforming Force Martial Artist is equivalent to the initial realm of the Immortal Dao, then a Grandmaster should also be comparable to a Cultivator with some power.’

’The Martial Arts Innate may represent entering a significant realm, comparable to Cultivators who have made some achievements in the Immortal Dao.’

Lin Zheyu pondered.

After some comparison, Lin Zheyu relaxed slightly.

Lin Zheyu and the others didn’t wait long before General Wei Yun and Commander Lei Liwei finished their discussions with that group.

Discussions concluded.

The group from the Observatory didn’t even look at Lin Zheyu and the others, completely ignoring them, chatting among themselves as they walked past.

Wei Yun and Lei Liwei both let out a subtle sigh of relief when they saw those people leave.

"Commander Lei, they are from the Observatory, right?"

"Even the Observatory is involved, has the situation become this serious?" Guo Yu and the others approached, asking worriedly.

Lin Zheyu walked at the back, subtly glancing in the direction those people left.

That young man, aside from showing a slight malicious intent when Lin Zheyu first entered, displayed no other anomalies afterward.

"He disguised it well, it seems he’s also afraid of being discovered."

If it weren’t for Lin Zheyu’s strong senses, it would have been impossible to notice.

"The Observatory detected other demonic cult Demon God seed aura in our managed area."

"They suspect this area might be one of the regions chosen by those cults to activate a space-time node. We need to prepare in advance."

Lei Liwei’s expression was somewhat grave.

Facing Lin Zheyu, who either hailed from top sects or were disciples of distinguished families, even though they only had Bone Marrow Refining Realm prowess, he did not underestimate them.

"Did the people from the Observatory give any instructions?"

Zheng Mountain asked.

They heard that their managed area was likely selected as a region to activate a space-time node leading to a demon nest, which made them intensely uneasy.

An authentic demon emerging from such nodes would be beyond their current power to contend with.

"You only have Bone Marrow Refining Realm power, so the tasks won’t be too difficult."

"These are God-devouring Worms, extremely sensitive to Demon God aura."

"Each of you takes one worm, carries it with you, and then enters the mountains to find locations emitting Demon God aura."

"Once found, just destroy those places."

Lei Liwei took out three thumb-sized, colorful beetle-like small creatures.

Lin Zheyu curiously received a God-devouring Worm.

The God-devouring Worm appeared very gentle, motionless in his palm.

"Carry the God-devouring Worm with you. If Demon God seed aura appears within a hundred meters, the worm will cry out and fly toward the direction of the Demon God seed."

"The worm is very fast, make sure to keep up and do not lose track."

Lei Liwei issued the following task and then cautioned.

"What is a Demon God seed?"

Li Yin asked.

Lin Zheyu, hearing this, looked over as well, but couldn’t help recalling the influence of that eerie blood lotus in his mind.

’Could it be this thing?’

Lin Zheyu pondered.

After hiding the blood lotus in a large tree, the lotus inexplicably grew together with the tree, and the tree strangely came to life.

On the blood lotus, Lin Zheyu sensed the unique aura of a Demon God.

Now hearing Lei Liwei mention Demon God seeds, Lin Zheyu couldn’t help but connect the two.

"A Demon God seed has no fixed shape, it can be any object, serving as a special medium containing Demon God’s power."

"Using this medium, the Demon God can channel power, exerting different effects as needed."

Lei Liwei explained.

As the commander of Wuling City’s city guard, he knew many secrets.

Recently, many secret files were issued within the army, broadening their knowledge of hidden truths.

"Demon God seeds... Demon God’s power..."

"This is truly the worst of times!"

Guo Yu couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

As a Bone Marrow Refining Realm Martial Artist, he was considered a powerful expert among ordinary people.

Yet, living in this era of great upheaval, with demonic puppets, demons, and Cultivators aside, even Demon Gods were present.

Guo Yu couldn’t help but be overwhelmed by feelings of defeat and powerlessness.

"Don’t be overly concerned, the Observatory predicted six regions might be selected to activate space-time nodes."

"Our location is not the most likely."

"If you work harder and eliminate all Demon God seeds, the likelihood will be minimized."

"Alright, you should leave now; I have more things to discuss with General Wei."

"If you encounter that group from the Observatory again, be respectful. You must comply with any instructions they give."

Lei Liwei instructed.

Finished speaking, he waved his hand, letting Lin Zheyu and the others return to continue their tasks.

It was nighttime, with demonic puppets very active; skilled individuals were needed to patrol and prevent incidents.

...

In the military camp, a group of five, three men, and two women, walked past with smiles.

Besides the leading man, who appeared mature, the others seemed somewhat youthful, curiously observing the camp environment.

Growing up, this was their first visit to such a place.

However, once the novelty passed, they felt it wasn’t very interesting anymore.
