Chapter 147 : The Eighth Realm!
Chapter 147 - 147 : The Eighth Realm!
In Yan Country, Beihe Province, Mingfang Prefecture, just outside a county seat.
The land here is vast and flat, and in the middle of this expanse, two opposing forces are facing off.
On one side are the humans, and on the other, the demons.
Each province has its own customs, and compared to the barbaric demons of Yongnan Province, those in Beihe are much more civilized.
However, when I say civilized, it's actually a mimicry of humanity. Their Demon King calls himself the General, and the other demon lords are referred to as Commanders.
When they capture humans, they don't consume them raw like the demons in other provinces but will first cook them before eating.
Their attention to detail extends to warfare as well.
These demons have organized their own army, and when they go to battle, they form in orderly ranks and even attempt to mimic human battle cries.
At this moment, Jujia Demon Lord stands before his subordinates, clearly covered in spiny armor but forcefully donning a set of human armor.
He strikes a human-like pose, one hand on his waist, the other pointing forward, and declares with great grandeur: "Who goes there? Step forward and state your name!"
On the human side, Commander Wang Xuan, seeing this, can't help but scoff. It's a mockery, just like a monkey wearing a crown!
This Jujia Demon Lord is the greatest threat he must face in Mingfang Prefecture.
They've been adversaries for a long time, so they know each other's moves. Yet every time they face off, the spiny demon always asks, "Who goes there?" as if he enjoys repeating it like a performance.
He truly thinks of himself as a general!
But there is an advantage to this: while Jujia Demon Lord imitates human civilization, he never learned the human art of deceit. Therefore, every time he attacks, he always does so head-on.
If he had resorted to sneaky tactics or ambushes, with the demons' strength, Mingfang Prefecture would likely have already fallen.
Thinking this, Wang Xuan takes a step forward, raises his long spear, and loudly responds: "I am Wang Xuan, Commander of Mingfang Prefecture! Today, I shall take your head!"
Despite his reluctance, considering the people of his province, he must participate in this battle and play the part of the villain, satisfying this spiny general's theatrical cravings.
Upon hearing this, Jujia Demon Lord bursts into loud laughter, his voice shaking the earth: "Hahaha! You dare speak such reckless words! Do you not know that under my iron cavalry, all of you are but ants?"
"Hahaha!"
The demons behind him laugh in unison.
Wang Xuan sighs, about to continue with the dramatic exchange, but suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he notices a shadow flicker into view.
Before he can make sense of the figure, it vanishes above the spiny demon's head.
At the same moment, Jujia Demon Lord's laughter abruptly stops, as his head is gone... Blood erupts from his neck like a fountain!

"Killer of demons, General of Jianghai Prefecture, Fang Yuan!"
A slightly immature voice echoes across the vast land.
Both humans and demons are stunned, unable to react immediately to the sudden turn of events.
It is only the armored pangolin deputy beside Jujia Demon Lord who, trembling, dares to speak first: "Commander Wang Xuan, how about we postpone the battle for another day?"
His tone, unlike the general's earlier bravado, is filled with fear.
"What do you think?" Wang Xuan sneers and raises his spear: "Brothers, charge! Wipe out these beasts!"
"Kill!!"
In Yongnan Province's Town Guard Office, in a dense forest.
"Three thousand nine hundred and ninety drops..."
The young man opens his mouth and swallows another drop of spirit liquid. Around him, the place has turned into a botanical wonderland, with all kinds of strange flowers and plants growing.
What's most remarkable is that the flowers, grasses, and trees aren't rooted in the soil but instead float in mid-air, defying gravity.
This marks the fifth day of Fang Yuan's cultivation, and as he had predicted, reaching the eighth stage of the Master Realm requires far more good deeds than before.
The 200,000 good deeds he accumulated are far from enough.
Helpless, he forces his five shadow gods to work overtime. One is sent to eliminate the remaining demons in Yongnan Province, while the other four are dispatched to nearby provinces, hoping for better luck.
Fortunately, his luck seems good, or rather, the demon plague in Yan Country is severe.
Soon, Fang Yuan finds a large number of wild monsters and begins his slaughter!
He doesn't bother with small monsters, targeting only demon lords. After killing each one, he summons their souls, asking them for the whereabouts of other demon lords before moving on to the next.
In order to reach the Master Realm as soon as possible, Fang Yuan abandons the tradition of fishing for big prey and boasting after catching it. Instead, he simply announces his name and leaves.
Through this continuous slaughter, his depleted good deeds begin to replenish.
"This innate treasure tree is down to its last bit of vitality. I am only one step away from reaching the eighth realm, so let's fully extract it!"
Looking at the tree branches now as charred as coal, Fang Yuan once again activates the "Evergreen Greenwood Body."
The innate treasure tree in his hand lets out a cry of despair, and the last drop of spirit liquid is forcibly squeezed out.
This drop is brighter and greener than the previous ones, and as it is extracted, the tree completely decays, turning into a pile of dirt.
Fang Yuan swallows it...
Boom!
A mighty vitality fills his body once more, and the final transformation is complete!
The "Good Person Sutra" inscribes the following words:
[In the long, seemingly endless process of cultivation, the 'Evergreen Greenwood Body' has been perfected!]
[Various spiritual essences within the body resonate with each other, and the essence of life soars like the mythical Roc flapping its wings, rising straight up at this moment, transcending the mundane!]
[The green mist solidifies into form, the wood spirit refines the body and purges all dust, with merit complete, radiance bursts forth, shining alone as the world and all phenomena compete!]
The eighth realm, achieved!
