Han Junzhan piloted the mecha, carrying Luo Lingxing, and carefully entered the Northern Hemisphere.
As they ventured deeper, the sights that came into view were both shocking and appalling.
The planet Seyfert has always been known for its ferocious beasts, so even though it was a habitable planet, it became an idle resource of the Empire because of these difficult-to-manage wild animals, which is a pity.
However, even though the beasts on Planet Seyfert were famous, there were different areas. Compared to the Southern Hemisphere, the beasts in the Northern Hemisphere were more ferocious and more difficult to deal with. This was why Han Junzhan and Luo Lingxing had come here many times, but had only landed in the Southern Hemisphere.
The beasts in the Northern Hemisphere were still too strong for Zhang Xuan and the others. He originally planned to train them a bit more before taking them to the Northern Hemisphere for special training and trials to improve their strength. However, he did not expect that before carrying out this plan, they would come to the Northern Hemisphere to search for demons and see such a scene.
From outer space, there was nothing unusual about the northern and southern hemispheres of Planet Seyfert. However, once you landed on the ground and entered the forests of the northern hemisphere, you could clearly feel and see the difference. The forests were filled with a strong smell of blood, and the ground had turned blackish-red due to the blood, a color that made people feel very uncomfortable.
Clearly, the law of the jungle played out here every day, even every moment, and there was also an undeniable aura of demons mixed in.
Luo Lingxing had previously stated that the cultivation methods of the demon race were different from those of cultivators. Demons did not need to use spiritual energy. They only needed to cultivate through slaughter. The higher their cultivation level, the more bloody the slaughter in their hands, and therefore the stronger the malevolent aura on their bodies.
Moreover, the stronger the creature the demons killed, the more demonic energy they would obtain after killing it, and the faster they would improve their cultivation.
The beasts in the northern hemisphere of Planet Seyfert were generally stronger than those in the southern hemisphere, which was probably why the demon leader chose this place as his lair.
“Now that Planet Seyfert is our planet, I will not allow the demons to do as they please on Planet Seyfert,” Han Junzhan said with a dark look in his eyes.
He had heard Luo Lingxing talk about the cultivation of demons before.
“As long as it’s killing, whether the target is a human or another creature, it’s helpful for their cultivation, right?” Han Junzhan asked.
“Yes, their cultivation relies on the wisp of demonic energy produced before a creature dies.” Luo Lingxing’s expression turned unusually gloomy, and he felt a deep hatred for the demon race when he spoke of them.
Han Junzhan stared into the distance, and it was unclear what he was looking at, but his expression was extremely cold.
Previously, demons capable of humanoid forms appeared on the Emperor Star. At first, he only thought that the demons’ target was Luoluo, but now it seems that Luoluo may indeed be their target, but the people of the Emperor Star were probably also their incidental targets. If they really started a massacre on the Emperor Star, it would not only cause panic in the Empire, but the strength of those demons would probably also become stronger and stronger.
Fortunately, the demons were wiped out in a timely manner, otherwise the empire might have faced a catastrophic disaster.
“Let’s wipe them all out this time,” Han Junzhan said with a wicked smile.
Currently, the only two people in the world capable of fighting these demons were him and Luoluo. Regardless of whether these demons’ target was Luoluo or the Empire, he would not allow these demons to continue living. In that case, let them die completely!
Upon hearing this, Luo Lingxing nodded. He shared Han Junzhan’s opinion on the fate of the demon race.
To enhance their combat strength and make the battle more convenient, Luo Lingxing didn’t share a mecha with Han Junzhan. Instead, he took out his own mecha and sat inside, intending to fight alongside Han Junzhan. This was Luo Lingxing’s first time fighting side-by-side with Han Junzhan, and the thought of it filled him with excitement.
The two mechas moved side by side, carefully searching for traces of the demons in the forests of the Northern Hemisphere. In order to avoid being detected by the demons and having them escape in advance, both of them concealed their auras and their cultivation levels.
The forest in the Northern Hemisphere was in a terrible state, and one could easily imagine what kind of battle had taken place here and how many demons had roamed here. However, after searching for a day, the two of them only found a few weak demons that could not yet transform into human form. They found nothing else at all.
“It seems these demons are very cunning. They’ve either hidden themselves or already left Seyfert,” Han Junzhan analyzed, sitting by the fire.
“Judging from the demons like Sayiji, the demons should have mastered the skills of human life, and there is at least one leader among the demons with higher cultivation, who is very adapted to human life and also possesses high technology,” Luo Lingxing said.
If this was not the case, there was no way to explain why so many demons disappeared from Planet Seyfert, or why Sayiji and others appeared on the Emperor Star, even as envoys of a superior civilization. All of this indicates that the leader of the demons has probably been lurking among humans for a long time, and may even hold a high position.
Thinking of this, Han Junzhan and Luo Lingxing frowned at the same time. If this was the case, then the current situation of humanity was extremely dangerous. As long as they did not find this demon, the safety of human life would be threatened.
“If that demon leader really is lurking among humans and holds a high position, it’s impossible for him to remain completely undetected, especially now that the government has just launched a major purge. That demon can’t possibly be so calm, unless…” Han Junzhan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn’t help but clench his fists at the thought of that possibility.
“Unless the leader of that demon race is among those dealt with this time.” Luo Lingxing calmly added what Han Junzhan hadn’t said.
Why were Sayiji and his group able to reach the Emperor Star?
Why were they able to come as envoys of a superior civilization without being suspected?
Why did news about people with superpowers spread so quickly?
If the demon leader was indeed among these high-ranking government officials dealt with this time, then it made sense.
However, on the other hand, all those who were punished were exiled to remote planets, which meant that the lurking demon leader was also exiled. Although he was temporarily kept away from humans, capturing him also became more difficult.
“Since he can lurk among humans, it means he will return in the future. Let’s wipe out all the demons on Planet Seyfert first, and then go find that demon leader,” Luo Lingxing said. No matter what, he would not allow demons to harm humans, whether in his past life or this one!
For the next month, Han Junzhan and Luo Lingxing stayed in the Northern Hemisphere, searching inch by inch for the demons, and wiped out all the remaining demons on Planet Seyfert, even though they were all demons who could not take human form, and those who could probably have left the planet long ago.
At least for now, this planet posed no further threat to humanity, and Han Junzhan and Luo Lingxing would not allow demons to appear on their own planet.
It took about two months to thoroughly search the planet Seyfert. Besides eliminating all the demons, they also made some other discoveries, such as finding a fairly large spirit stone mine in the northern hemisphere.
Correct. It was spirit stones. The same kind that Xiao Hei dug out and gave to Luo Lingxing. Only a few were found in the Southern Hemisphere, but almost an entire spirit stone mine was discovered in the Northern Hemisphere. This harvest was definitely more exciting than wiping out all the demons.
In this world where there was almost no spiritual energy. One could only cultivate by relying on the Power of Faith generated by fans. However, for ordinary people, such a cultivation method was simply a pipe dream.
However, once you had a spirit stone, even without the Power of Faith, as long as the person has a spiritual root and talent, it was not a big problem to support several, a dozen or even dozens of people to cultivate.
Especially in times like these, cultivators were extremely scarce.
Luo Lingxing didn’t know how many demons could cultivate into human form, or what their strength was. If there were many demons with much higher cultivation than Sayiji, then even if Han Junzhan and he weren’t afraid of the demons, other ordinary people would still be afraid.
Even if they were very powerful, there were only two of them, and it was impossible for them to take care of everyone at once. So the best solution was to have more cultivators. Have even more!
After clearing out the Northern Hemisphere, Luo Lingxing and Han Junzhan immediately returned to the Southern Hemisphere with some spirit stones and gathered Zhang Xuan and the others together.
Luo Lingxing had a premonition that humans and demons would clash sooner or later, so he was very anxious, not knowing when the demons would launch an attack on humans.
Therefore, we must seize every minute and second now, and how far we can progress in our training depends entirely on everyone.
“I found a very magical mineral in the Northern Hemisphere. It can be used in conjunction with another cultivation technique I possess. If this technique is practiced, it can greatly enhance a person’s strength, enabling them to fight those superhumans hand-to-hand. Some talented individuals may even develop abilities similar to those superhumans,” Luo Lingxing said, half-jokingly.
Normally, he would never reveal the matter of cultivation, after all, cultivation was too heaven-defying in this world, as could be seen from the power displayed by the demons when they first appeared, which almost drove the entire empire mad.
However, special times called for special measures. Now that the demons were about to attack, if humanity couldn’t protect itself, then extinction was the only thing that awaited humanity.
More importantly, these demons may very well have been born because of him, and he must take responsibility for the humanity of this world.
Sure enough, as soon as Luo Lingxing finished speaking, Zhang Xuan and the others immediately became excited. Anyone who had fought against those superhumans could feel how incredible their abilities were. If they could cultivate well, they could also possess the same abilities as the superhumans. How could they not be excited?
“Young Master Luo, is this true?” “Could we also possess the abilities that those superhumans have?” “But aren’t those people with superpowers abnormal?” someone asked doubtfully, though their tone clearly betrayed their excitement.
“Those superhumans are indeed extraordinary, but those abilities are not exclusive to extraordinary beings. In ancient times, humans also possessed powers similar to those of nature…” Luo Lingxing said calmly.
“Yes, I once read in an ancient book that long ago. Humans possessed the power to destroy the world, but unfortunately, for some reason, this power gradually disappeared,” a soldier couldn’t help but say.
“Young Master Luo, are you really capable of guiding us to possess this power?”
“I have cultivation techniques, but they may not be suitable for everyone. Only those with spiritual roots in their bodies can cultivate them,” Luo Lingxing said calmly.
Luo Lingxing’s words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing everyone’s fiery emotions. However, everyone quickly came to terms with it. If everyone could possess such an incredible ability, wouldn’t the world be in chaos? The more precious, the rarer.
After figuring this out, everyone’s eyes burned even brighter, and everyone was eager to know if they could be chosen by the gods to be the lucky ones who could cultivate.
“Young Master Luo, how can we know if we possess spiritual roots and whether we can cultivate?” everyone asked eagerly.
Feeling a little uncomfortable being stared at by pairs of burning, gleaming eyes, Luo Lingxing could understand it.
He took out a smooth and beautiful crystal from his pocket and said to everyone, “Everyone, come forward one by one and hold this crystal. Feel the power contained within it, and then guide this power to circulate in your body along the path you have cultivated before.”
Luo Lingxing explained to everyone in detail that this testing crystal was something he had made on the spot. Although it couldn’t compare to the testing crystals in the cultivation world, it was still quite accurate for this purpose.
Immediately, everyone’s eager eyes fell on the crystal, and they were all eager to try it out.
“I’ll go first.” A man with a loud voice stepped forward from the crowd and did as Luo Lingxing had instructed.
Everyone held their breath, staring intently at the man and the smooth stone.
However, after waiting for a long time, the smooth crystal did not react at all. The burly man who was testing it was almost red in the face, but he still couldn’t get the crystal to react. Everyone knew that this burly man was probably not destined for further cultivation. The burly man tried again, but in the end he gave up unwillingly and returned to the group with his head down. Then several other people went up to test it, but without exception, all of them made the test crystal not react at all.
The remaining people were both curious and worried, and for a moment no one dared to step forward to test themselves, fearing that they would end up like those other people.
Luo Lingxing didn’t urge anyone, but nestled in Han Junzhan’s arms, quietly waiting for everyone to come forward for the test.
“You’re all cowards! I’ll give it a try. If it doesn’t work, I’ll just stop cultivating!” Zhang Xuan roared, his anger rising as everyone remained silent. In truth, he was quite apprehensive.
He carefully stepped forward and picked up the testing crystal, silently chanting in his mind. It must react, it must react! Whatever the reaction, just don’t let it be as lifeless as it is now.
As Zhang Xuan muttered to himself, he picked up the crystal and began to operate it as Luo Lingxing had instructed.
