Chapter 62 - 51: Terrifying Talent, A Day to Construct the Thunder Root_3
"But because some races of Demons have astonishing reproductive abilities, their numbers continuously increase. Every ten years, it’s necessary to open the Grand Array and hold a Demon Slaying Conference to reduce the number of Demons and alleviate the array’s pressure!"
Lin Xuankong frowned and said, "Since they are Second Layer and Third Layer Demons, why not send a few powerful Fourth Layer and Fifth Layer Martial Cultivators to massacre them? Wouldn’t that be much easier?"
Gu Beicheng shook his head slightly.
"It’s not that simple. The Demon-Suppressing Array is infinitely powerful. Any powerful Martial Cultivator who enters it would have their strength suppressed to a maximum of Third Layer Perfection! The number of Fourth Layer and Fifth Layer Martial Cultivators in each city and sect is very small. If they enter and their strength is suppressed to the Third Layer Realm, it would seriously destabilize the foundations of their sects if they were to fall! Therefore, the task of clearing out the Demons every ten years falls upon the talented disciples and Stewards of the Second and Third Layers!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuankong couldn’t help but furrow his brows. He had fought the Demon People Race before, and the terrifying Recovery Power of the Marsh Python People left a deep impression on him. These were merely the Demon People controlled by Demons, possessing only weakened Demon Techniques! If facing true Demons, who knows how powerful and difficult to kill they would be with their vast Demon Qi and formidable Demon Techniques!
Seeing his furrowed brows, Gu Beicheng thought for a moment and continued,
"Participating in the Demon Slaying Conference is not without benefits. The blood and flesh of the Demon Race are great supplements for the Qi Blood of Martial Cultivators. The items on their bodies are rare materials for refining Divine Soldiers, Armor, Elixirs, and for Array Formation and beast nurturing!
"For example, the gall of a Tier Three Marsh Python is an excellent healing remedy. Just consuming a drop of its gall liquid can regenerate flesh and bones within a day for any injured Martial Cultivator, even if they’ve lost half their body. As long as they haven’t vertically lost half their body, they can rapidly recover! My broken arm was restored by Chief Steward Jiang two days ago, using one of the last three drops of Marsh Python Gall Liquid remaining in the Great Marsh Hall!
"For example, a single drop of Heart Essence Blood from a Tier Three Evil Lizard Demon is equivalent to hundreds of Essence Blood Pearls from the Evil Lizard Demon People. With dozens of drops, one can cultivate a Tier Three Exotic Beast, whose combat power is comparable to that of a Third Layer Martial Cultivator!
