I Have a Golden Crow-Chapter 717 - 500 Spark Spread!_3

He continued, "I also heard that you made a Contract with the Cold Ashen Arrow?"

Du Yu felt awkward inside: "..."

Awkward as hell!

I actually snatched the Guardian God right under his nose~

Now great, the owner of the house has come to hold me accountable!

Jin Hao's gaze was sharp, looking far into the city: "The Cold Ashen Arrow has burned here for over fifty years, and never thought of choosing a master.

Can you tell me why the Cold Ashen Arrow was willing to make a Contract with you?"

Du Yu thought about it, then said, "The Cold Ashen Arrow has a deep hatred for Cold Beasts and Cold Qi.

The Arrow's previous master was swallowed by this Bottomless Pit.

And my goal is the same as the Arrow's."

"Oh?" Jin Hao seemed a bit surprised, "What's your goal, to slaughter the Cold Beasts here?"

Though he asked, Jin Hao didn't really believe it.

If that were the case, then plenty of soldiers would qualify to contract with the Cold Ashen Arrow—not likely to fall to Du Yu's turn.

"Root them out completely!" Du Yu said in a low voice, "My goal is Kunlun Mountain–Youhan Tree."

Jin Hao's eyes lit up a bit, turning to look at Du Yu.

On Du Yu's youthful face, Jin Hao saw determination—saw resolve.

If someone else boasted like this, they'd just be laughed at.

But this is Shaohai's First Disciple…

Du Yu's already proven himself enough!

Looking at his short year and a half history in Demon Taming, this kid's Talent is absolutely off the charts.

Jin Hao silently watched Du Yu for a while, then said in a low voice: "Why is your goal Bottomless Kunlun–Youhan Tree?"

Du Yu: "This world gave me everything. I can't watch it be destroyed."

Jin Hao nodded lightly: "That's a pretty unassailable reason."

Du Yu paused, then said, "If you knew how wretched I used to live..."

"Then you'd know how serious I am now."

Jin Hao quietly looked at Du Yu.

Du Yu's eyes were sincere: "The Demon Taming World really gave me everything."

Gave me companions I can't let go, and let me have people I care about."

Hearing this, a hint of a smile appeared on Jin Hao's face.

This time, Du Yu really was sincere enough.

Jin Hao spoke: "Xiaodu, can you promise me one thing?"

Du Yu: "What is it?"

Jin Hao: "Before you have the ability to reach Bottomless Kunlun, please let the Cold Ashen Arrow stay here."

This unique Battle Zone has trained hundreds of thousands of soldiers for Great Xia. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

The Xuena City Battle Zone has sent batch after batch of Warriors to other cities and major armies.

If the Bottomless crisis really comes, they will be Great Xia's strongest defense."

"Alright, no problem." Du Yu nodded hard.

This Battle Zone really is rare.

The Demon Spirit Squad truly does need this kind of real combat zone.

With Du Yu's definite answer, Jin Hao let out a light sigh.

He stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the Battle Zone beneath the night: "Such a dangerous Battle Zone—yet to you, it's like your own backyard."

Maybe so.

Maybe, one day in the future, you'll really achieve your goal."

But Du Yu's expression wasn't good: "Backyard? Yeah, right.

The Cold Ashen Arrow's testing me—wants me to get an Earth-level Demon Crystal and bring it back to it, I…"

Jin Hao looked at the Cold Beasts swarming on the Arrow and whispered: "Can't get in?"

Du Yu answered helplessly: "It's no different from suicide."

Jin Hao: "Still going to try?"

Du Yu thought for a moment, then nodded with difficulty: "Yep! No matter how, I gotta get that Demon Crystal in!

The Cold Ashen Arrow values promises, things I agree to—can't fail them.

Even if I fail, I've got to fail on the road of trying!

I need the Cold Ashen Arrow—I need it to go with me to Bottomless Kunlun!"

Looking at Du Yu's resolute face, Jin Hao was actually a little moved inside.

So, that's why the Cold Ashen Arrow burned alone for decades, but finally chose to contract with you.

This world,

This Great Xia,

Honestly, still needs young people like this.

Jin Hao said softly, "The Earth-level Demon Crystal is inside the mud pillar."

Without another word, Du Yu walked to the mud pillar where Jin Hao had hidden it before.

He dug away the surface mud and saw the beautiful Demon Crystal—inside, a surging Fire Demon Breath was constantly swirling, its power astonishing!

Watching Du Yu's move, Jin Hao asked, "What's your plan?

Going to use a Spiritual Artifact like you did at Gossoxone?"

Du Yu hugged a Demon Crystal as big as a yoga ball, his mind racing.

Jin Hao: "It's about time—let's ignite this Battle Zone."

"Hm?" Du Yu looked at the man.

Jin Hao: "I'll help you."

Du Yu was stunned: "You… help me?"

Jin Hao nodded: "Not just me—there's also the soldiers you rescued in the city, and the whole Battle Zone's army."

Maybe even all of Great Xia."

Du Yu's mouth hung slightly open, unsure what he meant.

"Tss!" Suddenly, Jin Hao slashed his palm, dabbed some blood on his fingertip, and nodded at Du Yu.

Du Yu walked up and stood before the chief of the Battle Zone.

With his blood-stained fingertip, Jin Hao gently drew five marks on Du Yu's cheek: "Hold fast to your goal."

Whether delivering the Demon Crystal this time, or heading to Bottomless Kunlun someday in the future."

You're never alone."

Hold fast to your goal, Du Yu. You've got a nation behind you."

Du Yu stared blankly at Jin Hao, only to see sparks dancing all over him.

The burning air pressed Du Yu back step by step, and as Jin Hao raised his hand, a pillar of flame shot up straight above his head.

"Whoosh~"

The flames blazed wildly—even the Tower's spire was set alight.

Then, Jin Hao's figure grew bigger, and bigger… and bigger...

Flame Soul Imprisonment?

And at ten meters tall, Emperor Level · Flame Soul Imprisonment!

This big shot of the military is actually a Demon Taming Emperor.

"Sss!!!" The giant Jin Hao roared out, shaking the night sky.

At last, he shed his kindly appearance—showing only awe and valor!

"Sss..."

"Sss!!!" One roar after another echoed from all around the city.

Du Yu looked down—his pupils shrinking!

Thanks to Jin Hao's sky-shaking roar, all of Xuena City had changed completely.

The dark city, once ruled only by Cold Beasts, suddenly erupted with one Imprisoned Body after another!

Especially Flame Soul Imprisonment and Electric Soul Imprisonment—lots of those.

Pillars of fire and dazzling lightning flashed all over the pitch-black Xuena City.

Du Yu had sharp eyes,

and the more he looked, the more shocked he felt.

In the ruined metropolis, from the safe zones inside towering hundred-meter buildings, squads rushed out!

Ten? Twenty?

No—for every tower, it was hundreds, thousands!

Far to the west, male and female soldiers Du Yu saved from the teaching building were driving 5-meter-tall Imprisoned Bodies, mixed with massive Demon Spirit Squads, charging to the street.

To the far south, Jiang Mingzhe smashed through a building's mud door, his body swelling, roaring in Flame Soul Imprisonment, shooting a pillar of fire into the sky.

To the far east, a female soldier Lin Shiwei once carried in her hand, piloted a huge Electric Soul Imprisoned Body straight up into the night, lightning dazzling everywhere.

Out of those hundreds or thousands of high-rises, came hundreds or thousands of Demon Spirit Squads!

All across Xuena City, the thunderous roar rumbled to the heavens.

A spark can set the prairie ablaze!

"Sss..."

"Roar!!!" Around the Cold Ashen Arrow, swarms of Cold Beasts howled in fury.

Hearing the great roaring from afar and seeing dazzling lights in the night sky, they charged out in anger.

At the top of Xuena Central Tower, Du Yu clenched his fists in excitement!

This sight fired him up so much his blood was boiling!

How many soldiers must that be?

Tens of thousands?

Way more!

This unstoppable might looked to Du Yu like a "million-strong army"!

Jin Hao stood proud and tall, facing the onrushing Cold Beast Army—blasting twin columns of fire from his hands with a sudden shove.

His voice still carried the rasp of the Imprisoned Race: "Go!"

Du Yu looked up at Jin Hao, hugging the massive Demon Crystal in his arms.

Jin Hao looked down at the tiny figure of Du Yu and shouted sternly: "Hold to your goal—forward!"

"Yes!" Du Yu nodded hard, shooting out like an arrow.

Jin Hao watched the flying little figure, then thrust his hand again. Rings of flame circled Du Yu, burning Cold Beasts one after another to ash.

Go forward…

Just keep moving ahead,

Behind you, there'll always be a million-strong army!
