I have been slaying demons in the Demon Slayer Division for thirty years

Deep in the East China Sea.

Youdu.

A dark, gloomy city.

Instead of the dazzling luxury of the ordinary Dragon Palace, Youdu only has its simplicity and vicissitudes of life.

The shrimp soldiers and crabs will patrol the Dragon Palace, silent, like corpses walking in the dark night.

Among the palaces that stretch for thousands of miles, only the central palace is lit with a fierce torch.

It is said that this torch was given by the ancient god Cho Ming. It has endless power and has blessed Youdu since ancient times.

A stream of light fell in the hall and turned into an old man with yin and yang eyes. It was Zhulong who had returned from the east coast. He gave instructions to the dragon girls waiting on the left and right.

"Ming Gu'er come and see me quickly!"

The waiting dragon girl quickly stepped down to convey the message. After a while, Zhulong's son Zhugu entered the hall.

"Meet my father!"

Zhugu has the face of a human and the body of a dragon. Among Zhulong's many descendants, the bloodline is closest to that of his father. .

Zhulong asked: "How long does Gu'er live?"

"Father, it has been three thousand four hundred and twenty years."

Zhugu didn't know why, and secretly guessed the meaning of his father. Even Zhulong's closest descendant had not seen him in person for hundreds of years.

Zhulong played with the remnant soul of Cui Yuan in his hand and asked, "Have you ever thought about being promoted to a true dragon?"

Plop!

Zhugu looked horrified. He was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and explained repeatedly: "My child knows that he is wrong and has thoughts that he shouldn't have. Please forgive me!"

"Um?"

Zhulong frowned slightly, unexpectedly surprised, and asked: "How can you admit your mistake?"

Zhugu replied: "Children should not covet the position of Dragon Lord, complain in private, and conspired with Qinglong a few days ago..."

"Conspiracy for what?"

Zhulong snorted coldly. The two dragon demon gods in the East China Sea, Zhulong and Qinglong, have been fighting for countless years.

Zhugu did not dare to hide anything: "The child has been trapped in the peak of the Demon King for thousands of years, and has a demonic barrier in his heart. He conspired with Qinglong to plot with the Dragon Lord Liubo, trying to use his dragon soul as a guide to become a true dragon."

"My father underestimated you and dared to scheme against Lord Long."

Zhulong's voice was calm and without anger. He was the only demon god in the clan.

Now that I have seen the decline of the Qiongqi clan, and the sorrow of the rabbit and the fox, I have long had the idea of ​​​​cultivating demons and immortals.

"My child is guilty!"

Zhugu tried hard to suppress his fear, and the conspiracy was true and false, but in fact he promised Qinglong to pay attention to his father's traces. The meaning is self-evident.

"My father was originally worried that you would settle for the status quo, but with this plan, I feel relieved."

Zhulong waved his hand, and Cui Yuan's remnant soul fell in front of Zhugu.

The remnant soul seemed to know something was wrong, and immediately turned into a escaping light and flew out of the palace. As a result, it hit the formation and was imprisoned in the air.

"Father, which senior dragon clan is this?"

Zhugu guessed his father's thoughts and sensed the true dragon breath of the remnant soul, and couldn't help but be ecstatic.

"Ao Lie."

Zhulong said: "It is willing to self-destruct in order to save Liubo Longjun. It is considered a dragon hero!"

"hero?"

Zhugu looked hesitant. If he was promoted with the help of the souls of dragon heroes, he would have to bear infamy in the future.

"A woman's kindness!"

Zhulong scolded: "Gu'er, you must remember that the monster clan has always been a prey of the weak, and this has not changed since ancient times! It is precisely by this principle that the monster clan has more and more powerful people and is becoming more and more prosperous."

"My child, please remember your father's teachings!"

Zhugu only hesitated slightly and made a serious choice, definitely choosing to swallow the dragon soul.

Zhulong said: "Tens of thousands of years from now, who will still remember the dragon heroes? They will only remember the god of duty, who controls the day and patrols the world."

"Thank you father for your grace!"

Zhugu immediately understood that after he was promoted to the True Dragon, he would be canonized as the Righteous God of Demon Court and enjoy immortality.

Among Zhulong's many descendants, Zhugu is the strongest and has the highest cultivation level.

Cui Yuanlong's body and dragon beads were completely destroyed, leaving only the remnant soul. Its preciousness is the origin of the true dragon. Only those who are close to the true dragon can transform and advance by devouring it.

"There are many treasures in the treasury. You can take them as much as you can. You must be promoted successfully, otherwise you won't have to come back!"

"Father, don't worry, my child is only one step away from a true dragon. Having this true dragon origin is enough."

The candle drum took a picture of Cui Yuan's remnant soul, bowed and exited the hall, thought for a moment and went to the treasure house.

The opportunity of a real dragon must not be taken lightly!

Ten thousand-year-old sacred mushrooms, thousand-year-old red fruits, top-grade elixirs, and other rare spiritual objects were swallowed in large quantities.

The demonic energy that had originally stagnated in growth was moving rapidly, constantly impacting the shackles of the immortal world. However, the bottleneck remained motionless like a natural chasm.

Zhugu returned to his palace, swallowed the remaining soul of Cui Yuan into his belly, and cast a spell to refine it.

hold head high!

The remnant soul made a roaring sound, and then shattered into pieces under the impact of the mighty demonic energy.

A ray of true dragon origin slowly merged into the Zhugutian, and the mundane demonic energy gradually underwent mysterious changes, becoming more than a hundred times more condensed than before.

Once again, he struck the shackles of the immortal world, creating numerous cracks with one blow.

Zhugu sensed the demonic energy and the changes in the dragon's body, and said with a smile: "My way has been accomplished!"

This is.

An undetectable and subtle residual soul followed the origin of the true dragon and entered the Zhugu Dragon Soul.

Many memories appeared in front of Zhugu's eyes, from the first generation of Dragon Lord in Luoshui to Cui Yuan who took the opportunity to attack Ao Lie and turned a human into a dragon.

The vast memory like a sea of ​​smoke washes away the Zhugu Dragon Soul. Its own three thousand years of experience are not as good as the real dragon's memory.

The dragon soul swelled to the point of bursting, and the candle drum couldn't help but look up to the sky and roar.

hold head high!

Although Zhugu's soul is sound, it is fundamentally different from the true dragon's remnant soul. What's more, having just refined the true dragon's origin into the soul means that he has identified with the remnant soul and lost his home field advantage.

Endless memory impact, seeing Zhugu about to lose himself, Cui Yuan borrowed his soul to be reborn.

Most of the lineages of immortals and Buddhas in the world are like this.

"centering!"

A cold snort came from the void, and Zhulong's dark pupils shot out divine light, brushing against the Zhugu Dragon Soul.

The noisy and chaotic memory impact suddenly became orderly.

Zhugu immediately knew that his father had taken action, so he quickly kept his true intention and recited scriptures on calming the soul and calming the mind from Buddhism and Taoism.

After a while.

The soul that swallowed the true dragon's origin slowly transformed into the true dragon's soul, which can now withstand the majestic memory.

Zhulong nodded slightly and disappeared in a flash.

Zhugu sat cross-legged in the hall, waiting for the transformation of the dragon body, dragon soul, and dragon beads to be completed, and he was promoted from the top demon king to the demon immortal.

Half a month passed by in a flash.

A clear dragon roar came from the palace, spreading throughout the entire Youdu, and then the terrifying dragon power descended, as heavy as the sky and the earth collapsing.

The Youdu demon clan immediately fell on the ground and knelt down in the direction of the dragon roar.

"Congratulations to Patriarch Gu for becoming an immortal!"

Among the worshipers, there are many dragon sons and dragon girls, who share the same father and mother as Zhu Gu. We dare not show any disrespect at this time. In the future, they will no longer be brothers and sisters, but will become immortals and mortals!

Longwei goes as quickly as it comes.

The candle drum restrained its aura and turned into an escaping light, falling outside the Dragon King's Hall, and bowed respectfully.

"Greetings to my father, my son lived up to his expectations and was successfully promoted to a true dragon."

"good."

Zhulong's voice came from the palace: "In the future, you will be in charge of Liubo Island and monitor the movements of the human race at all times. Ao Tu and Ao Huang have returned to the East China Sea and will temporarily serve under your command."

After Ao Tu Erlong came back, he informed Zhulong of the news that the unknown martial saint was born and died together with the demon god Yinglong at the mouth of Kunpeng.

Although Zhulong does not understand the methods of divination, he can't help but feel alarmed after seeing the immortals and Buddhas who have died in recent years.

The demon clan is in full swing, but something seems to be going wrong.

Immortality is imminent and cannot be neglected. Like Yinglong, he died at the threshold of immortality. Zhulong decided to let his son go to the front line, while he temporarily hid behind Youdu, waiting for the Demon Court to be canonized.

Youdu has been passed down since ancient times and has gone through two eras of gods and ghosts. Its foundation is unfathomable and its life is safe.

"Children take orders!"

Zhugu was about to leave when he suddenly heard a message from Zhulong.

"Since Aolie came to the East China Sea, I have been uneasy. Now that I have inherited his memory, do you know what his plans are?"

Zhugu replied: "Reporting to the emperor, Ao Lie seems to be connected with the Golden Crow, and he has developed a disobedient heart towards the Dragon Clan."

"Hmph! I already know that Ao Lie's heart is not pure!"

Zhulong seemed to have expected it: "This ancestor was a five-clawed golden dragon, but it's a pity that it didn't survive until now. A few days ago, I saw that it was willing to sacrifice for the same people, and I became more and more suspicious!"

Zhugu patted the horse and said, "Father, with his clever calculations and strategic planning, he will definitely be able to lead the Dragon Clan in the future!

"It's nothing to lead the Dragon Clan, I must..."

Zhulong's voice was ethereal, and the following words could not be heard clearly.

…

Zhenzhou.

Anlongjiang, Jiangshen Palace.

Ao Rong looked at the copper-backed silver-faced mirror and asked, "Fairy mirror, fairy mirror, are there any demons and ghosts making trouble today?"

The power of the merits of the incense slowly passed away, and the mirror surface was like water, gradually manifesting into a farmhouse door.

A black air hovered outside the door, ready to penetrate at any time.

"Huh? There actually is!"

Ao Rong sensed the power of the River God and immediately knew where the demons were: "In the village along the river, there are ghosts that turn into evil spirits and come out at night to suck in Yang energy and harm people's lives!"

Since realizing the true immortal's guidance, Ao Rong has become more dedicated to accumulating merit and slaying demons. He carefully patrols the water area every day to clean up all monsters and monsters.

It's a pity that Linjiang County is just a small town. There are not many monsters and monsters, and even more powerful ones are rare.

Today, he discovered that a powerful ghost was harming people. Ao Rong was afraid that the Demon Slayer Division would get ahead of him, so he drove the river towards Yanhe Village.

Village along the river.

There are many villages with the same name in Daqian. Yanhe Village is located along the river.

The bright moon is in the sky, and the stars are sparse.

There was deathly silence in the village, and the usual barking of dogs was silent.

"Could it be that you're late?"

Seeing this scene, Ao Rong quickly speeded up and entered the village entrance to check quickly.

The owner of the courtyard was sleeping soundly. He had no idea that the evil ghost was causing trouble, and he was not harmed.

Carefully sensing the remaining Yin Qi, Ao Rong followed the traces to the center of the village and saw the ghost hovering outside the door at a glance.

It has a green face and fangs, a mouth like a pinhole, a thin throat and a big belly. The upper body is skinny and bony, and the lower body is filled with a shapeless evil spirit.

"A starving ghost."

Ao Rong immediately recognized the origin of the evil ghost. The ghost of a person who died of starvation, by chance, swallowed the evil spirit of the earth and turned into a starving ghost.

These ghosts are always hungry and have difficulty controlling their desire to eat. Their needle-like mouths not only eat people's yang soul, but also their flesh and blood.

The starving ghost is a common ghost, and is also described in the torturer's theory.

Such ghosts are stupid and greedy. When they see food such as rice noodles, steamed buns, etc., they will spin around uncontrollably, but they cannot eat it or swallow it.

A living person could take this opportunity to escape and report the crime.

Ao Rong observed the starving ghost for a while and noticed something strange. The ghost had been hovering outside the door for a long time but never came in to harm anyone.

"If you kill demons and eliminate demons without leaving a name, how can you be worshiped by others and increase your incense?"

then.

Ao Rong made a concealment move and stood not far away, waiting for the starving ghost to enter the house.

The ghost lingered outside the door for a long time, and finally seemed to make up its mind and jumped into the courtyard.

Jie Jie Jie...

A series of classic ghostly screams and the invasion of Yin Qi woke up the owner.

The owner and his wife saw the starving ghost through the window and screamed in fright.

"Mother-in-law, hurry up and take the child, go to the ancestral hall!"

The man tried to calm down and recalled the description in the fairy book: "What the hell is this... what should I do..."

Most people's minds go blank when they memorize the contents on a daily basis, but when they encounter a serious ghost.

The starved ghost laughed ferociously and pounced on the man, piercing his head with its needle-like mouth. With just one breath, it swallowed up all the flesh and blood, leaving only an empty skin.

Seeing this scene, Ao Rong adjusted Jiang Shen's robe and planned to make a grand debut. All he had to do was lower the divine thunder to blast the ghosts to pieces, and gain another devout believer in the future.

Just at this time.

The statue of the door god affixed to the courtyard door glows with divine light repeatedly.

The void twisted and shook, and Yan Chixiao jumped out from the door leaf, transforming into a great man of five feet.

"The door god is here, and the kid An is so rampant!"

Yan Chixiao roared angrily, grabbed the starving ghost, and slapped his head to pieces.

After a few clicks, Yan Chixiao chewed up the starving ghost and swallowed it into his belly.

The farmer and his wife were dumbfounded, and then they kowtowed on the ground: "Thank you, Lord Men, for saving your life. Thank you, Lord Men..."

Yan Chixiao flew out of the hospital and said to the corner.

"You little dragon haven't seen enough?"

"Juniors pay their respects to God!"

Ao Rong quickly revealed his form and bowed down. The door god in front of him had unfathomable power. He was most likely the legendary true god.

"Incense has rich merits, no wonder sir would write down his name!"

Yan Chixiao said: "We must keep it up in the future, slay demons and accumulate merit, and we may not be unable to realize the true God."

"Thank you God for your guidance!"

Ao Rong was immediately overjoyed. Sir, what God said, he immediately thought of the Book of Changes.

"I'm going too!"

After Yan Chixiao finished speaking, he flew back to the door frame, and the divine light converged and turned into an ordinary portrait again.

The fluctuations in the void gradually recovered, and with the help of the door god's function, the space was broken, and a clone was cast from thousands of miles away, killing the evil ghost and then flying back to the main body.

suddenly.

A ray of remnant soul emerged from it with the help of the distortion of the void. Its aura was uncertain and seemed to dissipate at any time.

"I'm finally out!"

Ao Cang felt the familiar vitality of heaven and earth and couldn't help but laugh out loud. He immediately counted the time and found that nearly a month had passed.

The time and space in the void crack were chaotic, and Ao Cang felt like he had been there for decades, but it seemed like a moment.

Due to the continuous attack of the space storm and the lack of vitality replenishment, the dragon ball was finally shattered and the dragon soul was 99% shattered.

Finally, just now, I sensed the fluctuation in the void and took the opportunity to get out!

"I survived after all. It only takes a few hundred years of cultivation to recover from my injuries!"

Ao Cang's soul swept around and found Jiang Shen Ao Rong. He was surprised and said: "God has treated me so well. He is actually ready to seize his body. This bloodline aura seems to be the descendant of my brother-in-law!"

Ao Lie and Ao Cang are both descendants of the five-clawed golden dragon. They are of the same line. After taking away Ao Rong, they can speed up their recovery of strength.

Thinking of this, Ao Cang dived into Ao Rong's head without hesitation.

"Junior, I am your ancestor, obediently offer your body!"

Ao Rong showed no fear, consumed the incense merit to activate the mirror, and said with a smile.

"Baojing, Baojing, take this old guy in quickly!"

The treasure mirror bloomed with dazzling divine light, shining on Ao Cang's remnant soul. There was a power to restrain the demon, and then it was pulled into the mirror and sealed.

On the silver mirror, a lifelike real dragon appeared.
