Creating the Shura Palace in a Fantasy World

Chapter 48: Chapter 48 - An Immortal Army?



Seeing the entire army of three-meter-tall Blood Demons kneeling in front of him, Song Yang couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction.

After waving his hand for them to rise, Song Yang looked at Ye Gouyang and asked, "What is the approximate strength of the Blood Moon army?"

If it were the summoning of just one person from the epic-level mysterious box, Song Yang would have expected a Saint King or even a Grand Saint, as it was an advanced epic reward.

But since it was an army of one hundred thousand Blood Demons, Song Yang really had no idea of their overall strength.

Hearing Song Yang's question, Ye Gouyang respectfully replied, "Reporting to the Palace Master, the Blood Moon army is made up of 90,000 Blood Demon soldiers with Divine Transformation cultivation."

"In addition, there are 9,000 Blood Demon soldiers with Real Realm cultivation, and 999 Blood Demon soldiers have reached the Saint cultivation."

"As for my cultivation..."

"Half-Step Saint King." Song Yang didn't wait for Ye Gouyang to finish speaking and exclaimed.

"Yes." Ye Gouyang replied, somewhat surprised that Song Yang had managed to perceive his cultivation even with his aura contained.

Song Yang had managed to find out Ye Gouyang's cultivation before he spoke because he had asked the system to open his properties panel:

[Name: Ye Gouyang]

[Race: Blood Demon]

[Cultivation: Half-Step Saint King]

Looking at the massive army before him, Song Yang thought for a moment:

"I don't need an army at the moment."

"But if they are transformed into assassins for the Shura Palace, I will have an additional 100,000 assassins, which means I will have enough manpower to enter the Land of the Hundred Realms."

"This way, the Shura Palace can operate throughout the entire eastern region."

Currently, the Shura Palace had spread across the areas of the five dynasties, two sacred lands, and three super sects. There was still one area in the eastern region called the Land of the Hundred Realms.

This region is completely barren, and it is said that even a powerhouse with Real Realm cultivation is extremely rare there. For this reason, Song Yang had not sent any tokens to that area, as he only had assassins with Saint cultivation.

Imagine sending an assassin with Saint cultivation to face some ants with Core Formation and Divine Transformation cultivation.

Not to mention that those forces probably wouldn't have enough spiritual stones to pay the Shura Palace.

The sacred source doesn't even count, as each sacred source is likely considered a supreme treasure in that area.

"Even if they are just ants, they still make up nearly 30% of the population of the entire eastern region and could increase my reputation points," thought Song Yang.

With a wave of his hand, Song Yang spent 40,000 reputation points to buy 40,000 Shura Palace tokens and instructed Ye Gouyang, "Order nine Saints from the army to lead all members of the Blood Moon army, whose cultivation is still at Divine Transformation and Real Realm, to spread the name of the Shura Palace in the Land of the Hundred Realms."

"There, they can be a bit more arrogant and establish numerous towers in the major cities of the 108 realms that exist there."

This army is sufficient to completely sweep through all 108 realms of the Land of the Hundred Realms. Naturally, Song Yang will not remain hidden and will make the most arrogant impression possible to maximize the reputation points gain.

As for Ye Gouyang and the other 990 Blood Demon soldiers, Song Yang clearly would not send them to that barren place. After all, a Saint is still extremely useful to him at the moment.

"Yes, Palace Master," Ye Gouyang responded respectfully and prepared to leave.

Seeing Ye Gouyang preparing to leave, Song Yang suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but say, "Wait."

"Do the Blood Demons have any innate abilities?"

Song Yang suddenly recalled the innate abilities of the Shadow Demons and became curious to know if the Blood Demons also had innate abilities.

After all, apart from the demons rewarded by the system, with the knowledge from his original body, no creature on the continent had ever heard of innate abilities before.

The innate abilities of Shi Hu and the Shadow Demons had been extremely useful to Song Yang, allowing him, for example, to infiltrate formations to deliver tokens, carry out assassinations, and even escape in crisis situations.

When Shi Hu had not yet reached Saint King, he managed to escape from He Xianglan, who had the cultivation of Saint King with 3 Stars.

After Shi Hu reached Saint King and faced He Xianglan again, it was also thanks to this innate ability that he was able to prevent He Xianglan from escaping.

Therefore, if the Blood Demons also possessed any innate ability that could help Song Yang, he wanted to know immediately for his future plans.

After all, Song Yang only discovered the innate ability of the Shadow Demons after a while, when he asked Shi Hu how he had managed to deliver the tokens to all the forces without anyone finding out.

Hearing Song Yang's question, Ye Gouyang did not hide anything and reported respectfully:

"Palace Master, the Blood Demons do not possess any innate abilities."

When Song Yang was a bit disappointed by Ye Gouyang's response, Ye Gouyang continued:

"But our Blood Demons have a special characteristic: as long as there is a single drop of blood remaining, we can heal completely."

Hearing this, Song Yang's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "Doesn't that mean that the Blood Demons are practically immortal?"

After all, to kill a blood demon, it would be necessary to completely destroy their body, reducing it to dust with an overwhelmingly powerful attack. This would be practically impossible unless the opponent has a much higher cultivation.

In other words, as long as the opponent does not have an overwhelmingly higher cultivation, the blood demons can instantly heal from all injuries.

And even if the opponent is more powerful, the blood demons could simply exhaust them until their spiritual power is depleted.

Thinking about this, Song Yang couldn't help but laugh in ecstasy as he reached a conclusion: "Does this mean I have an army of one hundred thousand immortal demons?"
