The other side was not in a hurry at all, not in a hurry at all!!
The current situation was more like a long war of attrition: The other side's tens of millions of troops were arriving endlessly, surrounding this ten thousand li area. It was like an iron bucket, impenetrable!
But they were not in a hurry to attack.
Instead, they started fighting on a small scale every day!
Of course, each battle had hundreds of thousands of people, so it wasn't a small scale battle. But the battlefield was single and unshakeable.
Even Mu Cang Lan was dumbfounded by this kind of fighting style. No one in the world had ever fought a battle like this before! This was using the lives of the soldiers as a joke!
Yuan Tianjie was personally leading this battle, so how could he make such a low-level mistake?
Yuan Tianjie's tent took up a vast area, and the decorations inside were even more magnificent. It was almost like a small imperial palace.
Although it was a temporary palace, the ground was covered with a white bear skin carpet, and the surroundings were even more extravagant.
Yuan Tianjie was comfortably high up, lying on his side, extremely leisurely.
"Your Majesty." Yu Chang hurriedly came in with an anxious expression. "Your Majesty, this battle cannot be fought like this. Mu Cang Lan is a sly old fox and is resourceful. If we continue to delay like this, I'm afraid that a long night will bring many dreams."
Before Yuan Tianjie could speak, Prime Minister Yi Luoyue suddenly raised her head and shouted, "Shut up! His Majesty's decision is reasonable! You just need to follow the plan, there is no need to speak more! "
"But like this," Yu Chi was also someone who understood war. How could he not know that this was nonsense? It would leave countless opportunities for the other side to exploit.
But facing the Prime Minister's knife-like gaze, he couldn't speak for a moment.
Above, Yuan Tianjie was still lying on his side, not paying any attention.
"Quickly leave!" Yi Luoyue shouted sternly.
"Yes … Yes … Yes … Yes …" Yu Lai lowered her head and left gloomily.
"Didn't you say? His Majesty is inside, no one is allowed to disturb him? "Yi Luoyue shouted coldly." Who is on duty outside? "
"This …" The guard at the door was uneasy. "This lowly one thinks that Marshal Yu must have something important to discuss with His Majesty on the battlefield … … this … …"
"Drag him away! Execute them! "Yi Luoyue ordered coldly." If anyone dares to offend us again, their entire family will be exterminated! "
Outside, there was a sound of agreement and endless pleas for mercy. However, after a scream, everything returned to silence once more.
Yi Luoyue scrutinized the large tent that only Yuan Tianjie and herself were in. An unusually cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
A wisp of faintly discernible green smoke slowly sneaked into the tent, and then quietly entered Yuan Tianzhi's body.
Heavenly Emperor Mo Yun, who had been lying on his side, finally sat up at this moment and coughed softly. Although it was only a soft sound, it was filled with an inexplicable majesty.
Yi Luoyue narrowed her eyes and smiled. "Your Majesty, you have gained a lot this time, right?"
Yuan Tianjie smiled faintly. He stood up and slowly walked around the large tent a few times. He said, "This time, this emperor's origin spirit left my body to collect the murderous aura contained in the remnant souls. It is indeed quite effective, allowing my injuries to recover a little. I believe that if I do it a few more times, my injuries from before will improve greatly."
Yi Luoyue said, "The war has just begun. There is still a long way to go. Your Majesty need not be impatient. You should focus on your divine body. As long as there is merit, not only will your injuries improve, even a complete recovery will not be difficult. There are so many people in this Heaven Imperial Court. Haha … … "
The white-haired and stooped old prime minister's laughter at this moment seemed particularly wretched and vicious.
Yuan Tianzhi smiled, and then frowned, saying, "That is indeed the case, but I still don't understand one thing. Our clan can absorb the soul power of the human race, but why can we only use it to heal our injuries? Why can't it be used to increase cultivation? "
"Logically speaking, such a thing is absolutely impossible. As long as there is energy that can heal injuries, it can definitely be used to restore one's cultivation! And energy that can increase cultivation may not be able to heal injuries. This is reasonable. "
Yuan Tianzhi frowned and thought hard. "This reason is really puzzling."
Yi Luoyue hesitated for a moment before narrowing her eyes. "Your Majesty, I think I may be able to give you an answer to this."
Yuan Tianzhi frowned. "Oh?"
The Heavenly Demon Clan had been puzzled by this question for generations. Yi Luoyue actually had an answer here?
"Cough cough." Yi Luoyue coughed a few times, as if she found it difficult to speak. "These years, I have been researching this topic … … For this, I have killed more than three million humans. Apart from humans, I have also … … killed more than three million clansmen … …"
Yuan Tianzhi's expression did not change at all. His emotions did not seem to fluctuate at all, and he merely hummed softly. "Oh?"
"I compared these bodies from front to back. Every inch of them was carefully compared. In the end, I couldn't find any differences. In the end, I dismembered the living people and experimented on their bodies to find the differences. Finally, I found out that although the structure of our clansmen looked the same, there were still differences in the bones!
"We are able to absorb their Soul Energies to heal our injuries, but we cannot increase our cultivation. This is the most likely reason."
Yi Luoyue said.
Yuan Tianjie's interest was immediately piqued when he heard this. He asked, "Tell me specifically, what exactly are the differences?"
Yi Luoyue had killed almost ten million beings for this research, and even used corpses for comparison. The cruelty was enough to make one's hair stand on end!
And yet, Yuan Tianzhi did not feel that anything was wrong.
Instead, he was very interested!
"When humans are filled with negative emotions such as fear, fear, and pain, something special would appear in their bodies and blood, but we Sky Demons do not have such changes." Yi Luoyue frowned. "I once implanted such things into the bodies of my clansmen, but it was useless. I can only conclude that such things are unique to humans and cannot be replicated."
"Another thing is that the structure of the human brain is slightly different from our clansmen's … …"
"The third difference is that the so-called immortal elites would have their souls formed after their physical bodies died, and their souls would be completely different from the demon embryos that we Sky Demons form under the same circumstances. There is a fundamental difference!"
"The demon embryos that our clansmen form when they are on the brink of death are filled with the aura of destruction, while the human embryos are filled with vigor. Even the weakest of souls are brimming with life."
Yi Luoyue spoke slowly. "With so many differences, we can be sure that while we can use the soul strength of humans, it is only limited to making up for our own shortcomings and healing our injuries. However, if we want to use such power to cultivate and improve our cultivation, we do not have the same body structure, so it cannot be done …"
"This may be a joke arranged by the gods, and is not something that can be changed by humans." Yi Luoyue concluded.
"So that's how it is." Yuan Tianzhi came to a realization and said, "Prime Minister, you must have put in a lot of effort to research this over the years? How many clansmen have you killed? How could there be so many clansmen to kill? "
Yi Luoyue chuckled. "Speaking of this, it's actually not that difficult. Your Majesty knows that I have to go back to my clan every few years, and each time, I bring a large number of clansmen and pretend to be captives. Haha, they only thought that they came with me to achieve great things and overthrow the imperial court, but in reality … they have all become my experimental subjects. In order to achieve great things, some sacrifices are unavoidable. There is a saying in the human race that I agree with, those who achieve great things do not bother about trifles …"
Yuan Tianzhi's face twitched, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I was wondering why those fellows all disappeared one by one. It turns out that they were all cut off by you. However … this isn't right either. After so many years, at least 20 million people have come. Could it be that you cut them all?"
Yi Luoyue scratched her head in embarrassment. "Yes …"
"I …" Yuan Tianzhi's eyes widened, and he was speechless at this "fact".
After a long time, he laughed bitterly. "No wonder you didn't dare to say anything about this, and always tried to cover it up and change the topic … so you really killed them all … sigh … this is really a troublesome matter. That's the nephew of His Majesty the Sky Demon King, and the grandson of the Western Heaven Demon King. You, you … are really … audacious! "
Yi Luoyue lowered her head and also laughed bitterly. "This … is also very hard to say. In order to make the results of the experiment comprehensive, we can't find anything from the bodies of ordinary Sky Demons. Only these direct descendants of the Demon Kings can represent the origin of the demons and see the difference more clearly … this … I only found out that there were such people after I killed them.
Sigh … "
"These Demon King Majesties, each and every one of them wanted their own grandchildren to develop themselves and make great contributions anonymously. Then, when they asked for rewards, they would give them a surprise … But they didn't know that this would only harm me."
Yi Luoyue sighed.
"You were the one who killed them first!" Yuan Tianzhi glared at him and said with a headache. "Okay, okay … let's put this matter aside and don't mention it again in the future. When I see the two Demon Kings in the future, I'll directly say that they died in battle … as for this discovery, let's never mention it again."
Yi Luoyue nodded.
"Also, their coffins of martyrs still need to be prepared and sent back when the time comes." Yuan Tianzhi waved his hand in annoyance.
"This subordinate has already prepared them …" The Prime Minister lowered his head, knowing that he had done something wrong.
Yuan Tianzhi suddenly smiled strangely. "Prime Minister, don't you think the humans should give you the title of Demon Slayer? The number of our clansmen who died in your hands is probably no less than tens of millions. Even Zi Hao may not have killed more people than you!"
