The Lord's Empire

Chapter 1187: Devil Qi Pill

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The ninth item was a Dukedom City, which could be immediately established. Zhao Fu decided to take care of this later.

The tenth item was a Level 7 Saint Armament, the Shield of Falsehood. He also decided to award this to his subordinates.

Apart from these rewards, there were also medicinal pills, Spirit Crystals, and Cosmos Comprehension. Zhao Fu had obtained the medicinal pi Little Sha and the Spirit Crystals, but the Cosmos Comprehension required him to go to the Cosmos Historical Remnant. However, that place was controlled by the Dao Cultivation Sect, so he could only give up on that.

After going through these things, Zhao Fu planned to use the saint Pill and the Ownerless Blood Jade together; perhaps there would be some surprising effects. After all, one raised the purity of his bloodline while the other raised his Grade. There was some connection between these things.

After Zhao Fu consumed the Ownerless Blood Jade, he felt a fiery heat spread throughout his body, and he felt that his blood was burning, causing the rest of his body to burn.

In the next moment, Zhao Fu consumed the Saint Pill. The Saint Pill turned into an orb of golden light that gave off an intense golden light that permeated Zhao Fu’s body, causing it to shine resplendently.

Suddenly, the wind blew and clouds swirled as countless traces of golden light descended from the sky.

Zhao Fu’s body trembled as a ray of golden light flew out and shot into the sky.

Boom!

An explosion sounded out in all directions as a figure giving off golden light appeared in the sky. That figure was Zhao Fu, but it was a golden image that was hundreds of meters tall.

Everyone looked towards the sky in shock, and sensing that boundless aura, it was like a buddha, causing some people to want to kneel.

At that moment, countless traces of Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi madly gathered towards that golden image, and Zhao Fu’s own body started to go through changes too.

The searing blood and sun-like orb caused Zhao Fu’s body to seem to disappear and become an incorporeal entity.

Boom!

An explosion sounded out as Zhao Fu went back to his original state and the abnormal signs in the sky disappeared. They turned into countless motes of light and entered Zhao Fu’s body.

Zhao Fu had successfully refined the Saint Pill and Ownerless Blood Jade. Even though his bloodline had not been increased by much, his grade was now Saint grade.

At the same time, Zhao Fu was pleased to find that the power of Emperor Killer had been slightly reduced. Even though it was only by a bit, Zhao Fu could now see some hope. Perhaps there really was a way to get rid of Emperor Killer; he had been too pessimistic before.

Zhao Fu smiled and examined his body. He found that after he rose to Saint grade, his body would automatically absorb Spirit Qi, and his sense of his surroundings had also increased by a lot.

Luckily, Zhao Fu had the Ownerless Blood Jade as well, or else the Saint Pill may not have been able to push him up to Saint grade.

After dealing with these things, Zhao Fu turned his mind back to Great Qin’s administration. There were now four big questions.

The first was how to continue to grow Great Qin’s foundation.

The second was how to deal with the four worlds that might attack at any time.

The third was to find a merchant group to work with and buy a large number of Talisman Stones and high-Stage corpses.

The fourth was that the Contract between the human world and Fish Scale world would be expiring soon. When that time came, battle would be inevitable, so Great Qin had to make preparations.

Regarding the first problem of foundation, Great Qin’s strength was quickly increasing. They now had 10.5 billion soldiers: 8.7 billion were Stage 1 soldiers, 300 million were Stage 2 soldiers, 1.5 million were Stage 3 soldiers, and one million were Stage 4 soldiers.

With this kind of strength, they were very strong in the outer regions. However, it was far from enough to attack a Royal Kingdom because those in the inner regions had Stage 2 soldiers minimum.

Now, Great Qin was relying on its beast army and Devil army. They needed to greatly expand these two forces. The beast army required Cities, while Great Qin did not know how to quickly nurture more Devils.

Nurturing devil beasts would definitely be quite difficult, and it would take a large amount of resources and time. Great Qin could not obtain them in a short period of time, but there were others who had them.

Zhao Fu now placed his gaze on the Devil Horn Empire. Because they were now enemies, there was no need for Zhao Fu to hold back. From the information he had received, the Devil Horn Empire still had 1.5 million devil beasts, and if Great Qin could obtain them, Great Qin’s strength would massively increase.

Zhao Fu thought about it and decided to bring a few thousand Assassins with him to the Devil Horn Empire and snatch some devil beasts, which would further weaken the Devil Horn Empire’s power.

Zhao Fu also brought with him a few Devils, who used to be devil beasts. They would most likely be quite familiar with the Devil Horn Empire, especially where the devil beast army was.

The Devil Horn Empire was the world above the Half-Beast World, and because the Half-Beast World’s Kingdoms had all made their own defenses, there were many gaps, making it easy for Zhao Fu to bring his people, cross through the Half-Beast World, and reach the boundary of the Devil Horn Empire.

The defenses here were much tighter than in the Half-Beast World. With Zhao Fu’s cultivation, he would be able to easily pass through, but he had a few thousand Assassins with him; it would be very difficult to pass through the Devil Horn Empire’s defenses without being detected.

Zhao Fu thought about it and decided to only bring 100 or so people to head into the Devil Horn Empire. These people were all elites among elites within the Assassins.

Zhao Fu led the 100 Assassins and carefully snuck into the Devil Horn Empire, and nothing unexpected happened.

This was the first time Zhao Fu had entered the Devil Horn Empire, and the devil qi here was incredibly dense. Nurturing devil beasts was much faster here than outside, and there were all sorts of wild beasts everywhere.

Zhao Fu avoided the wild beasts and headed to the location that the Devils had told him about. They were here to steal devil beasts.

A few days later, Zhao Fu went to a place where the devil qi was extremely dense to the point that it was almost condensing. Countless mutated plants were also growing there and were extremely big, and they looked as if they had a life of their own.

There was also a powerful barrier that was incredibly firm, and it seemed that it had immense killing potential. Anyone who recklessly rushed in could lose their life easily.

The devil beast army was incredibly important to the Devil Horn Empire, so it protected them strictly. However, ordinary people did not dare to get close to this place because of how many devil beasts there were. With how powerful they were, if they attacked, no one could survive.

Because of the converted Devils, Zhao Fu knew a lot of information about this place, so he had made proper preparations.

Zhao Fu and the 100 Assassins each consumed a Devil Qi Pill to change their auras. They now gave off devil qi, making them seem like they were part of the Devil Race.

Following this, Zhao Fu took out purple Talismans and gave them to the 100 Assassins. These Talismans were called Restriction Merging Talismans that could allow one’s body to merge into a restrictive barrier without being detected.
