The Chaos Demon Plain was not under the jurisdiction of any of the dynasties.
If one looked at the map, one could see that the ten dynasties of the Eastern Sword Domain were to the right, while the Chaos Demon Plain was to the left. A part of it was in the Eastern Sword Domain, and another part was in the eastern corner of the Central Sword Domain, connected to the Hundred Thousand Monster Mountain of the Central Sword Domain.
It could also be said that the Demonic Chaos Plains was just a corner of the Hundred Thousand Monster Mountains. Even so, the Demonic Chaos Plains still traversed the entire Eastern Sword Region, and almost touched the borders of the ten dynasties. There were countless powerful monsters living in the plains, and even a Qi Hai Realm sword artist would not dare to go too deep into the plains.
After three months, Chu Mu finally walked from the Black Dragon Mountain to the Chaos Demon Plain, and officially stepped into the Chaos Demon Plain.
Before taking the first step, he could still feel that the Spirit Qi was relatively pure. After taking the first step, Chu Mu was startled, and took another step back. After repeating this a few times, Chu Mu's face finally showed an expression of realization.
The Chaos Demon Plain was the habitat of countless powerful monsters, and the Qi here was naturally different from other places.
Human swordsmen absorbed the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth and turned it into Sword Qi, while monsters absorbed the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth and turned it into Monster Power. When there were many monsters, the Monster Power would leak out uncontrollably, and become Monster Qi in the air, coexisting with the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth, causing the Spirit Qi of heaven and earth to become more heterogeneous.
Although after three months, his Sword Qi cultivation did not increase at all, but he had gained a lot along the way.
The fourth part of the Sky Desolate Sword Body, the Meridian part, had been completed. It took a total of two months and three Ancient Sky Desolate Pills, and there were still fifteen pills left, and three parts of the Sky Desolate Sword Body had not been completed.
Muscles, skin, hair.
"Maybe after the fifteen Ancient Sky Desolate Pills are used up, the Sky Desolate Sword Body will also be close to completion." Chu Mu thought to himself.
The most important thing was the application of the one percent of sword force. This was Chu Mu's biggest gain. It allowed his strength to increase a lot without increasing his cultivation level. Especially after he mastered it, he even integrated the Trembling Stone Force into it, causing its power to increase again.
A month ago, Chu Mu had killed a core disciple of the Moro Sword Sect in a head-on manner without using any secret technique without suffering any injuries. This was enough to prove that Chu Mu's strength was several times stronger than before.
"Within three months, the Nine Transformations of Sky Origin will break through to the ninth transformation. By then, the characteristics of the Nine Transformations of Sky Origin will be fully revealed."
Step by step, Chu Mu walked on the ground of the Demon Chaos Plains, carefully sensing the spiritual energy fluctuations around him. There were traces of Yao Qi mixed in, making Chu Mu feel somewhat unaccustomed.
As far as the eye could see, the Demon Chaos Plains seemed to be boundless, and the ground beneath his feet seemed to be flat and desolate. There were no trees or rocks, and it was like a desert.
On this somewhat barren land, apart from Chu Mu, there were many other people walking side by side or on the opposite side.
Not long after, a group of carriages slowly arrived. Their flags fluttered in the wind, and a large 'Yang' character was written on them. They seemed to be a caravan.
"There's a city at the border between the Demon Chaos Plains and the Grand Kun Dynasty, and it's called Demon Shaker City. Chu Mu walked forward as he recalled the information about the Demon Chaos Plains that he had looked up in the Sword Mansion.
The Demon Chaos Plains was the habitat of the Yao Beasts. Many years ago, there was a Yao Beast riot that killed their way into the Grand Kun Dynasty, causing the people to suffer and suffering.
The royal family of the Grand Kun Dynasty mobilized their army to fight against the invading Yao Beasts, and the Grand Kun Sword Mansion also sent out powerful swordsmen to support them. There were also many sword sects, clans, factions, and civilian swordsmen that joined in. In the end, the rioting Yao Beasts were repelled.
In that battle, many soldiers and swordsmen died in the Grand Kun Dynasty. Every single one of them who survived had their strength greatly improved, and they obtained many corpses and blood of Yao Beasts as materials to nurture even more soldiers and swordsmen.
After that, in order to prevent the Yao Beasts from rioting and invading the Grand Kun Dynasty again, the royal family ordered the construction of a city at the border. The purpose was to fend off the Demon Chaos Plains' monster riot at the frontline, and to prevent the flames of war from spreading into the Grand Kun Dynasty's territory, causing the commoners to suffer and crops to be destroyed.
The city was constructed under the orders of the Grand Kun Dynasty's royal family, and the City Lord was naturally a capable person sent by the Grand Kun Dynasty's royal family.
In the beginning, Demon Shaker City was indeed completely under the jurisdiction of the Grand Kun Dynasty's royal family. However, as time passed, Demon Shaker City was located at the border, and because of the Yao Beast riot, the area within 500 kilometers was barren, and resources were extremely scarce. It was desolate and uninhabited. As the saying went, the sky was high and the Emperor was far away. Coupled with the participation of the various clans and powers, as time passed, Demon Shaker City showed signs of breaking away from the jurisdiction of the Grand Kun Dynasty.
Unfortunately, its overall strength was insufficient. Coupled with the fact that the appointment of the City Lord had to be approved by the Grand Kun Dynasty's Emperor, Demon Shaker City was still under the jurisdiction of the Grand Kun Dynasty in name.
Chu Mu, who seemed to be in dire straits, didn't attract too much attention. In the Demon Chaos Plains, all kinds of people could appear, and people like Chu Mu could be considered to be relatively ordinary.
After walking for about half a day, Chu Mu finally saw the outline of a city. It stood on the flat ground like an ancient ferocious beast that was in a deep slumber, and it emitted waves of aura that caused one's heart to palpitate.
Chu Mu also noticed that the color of the ground beneath his feet had changed. It gradually darkened from its original brown color to a faint dark red color. This dark red color became darker and richer the closer it got to Demon Shaker City, and it even emitted traces of a fishy smell.
After a period of time, Chu Mu finally arrived before Demon Shaker City. He stopped and looked at this enormous city that was said to have once resisted a million rampaging demon beasts. His expression changed slightly, and a bright light flickered in his eyes. The fishy smell that emanated from the ground became even thicker, causing Chu Mu to be unable to get used to it for a moment.
The walls of Demon Shaker City were twenty meters tall, and they were built from enormous square grey rocks. The originally ancient grey walls were covered in dark red mottled marks, and the dried and solidified pieces were still clearly visible after being eroded by time. As he looked at the countless dark red mottled marks, Chu Mu seemed to smell a trace of a dense smell of blood. In his daze, he seemed to see countless demon beasts swarming over, and the soldiers and swordsmen of Demon Shaker City fought a bloody battle against the countless demon beasts, causing a rain of blood to rain down.
According to the records, it had been a thousand years since the construction of Demon Shaker City. In total, it had resisted more than thirty demon beast rampages in the Demon Shaker Plain. On average, there would be one demon beast rampage every thirty years.
The smallest demon beast rampage involved a hundred thousand demon beasts, while the largest rampage involved a million demon beasts. Every time the demon beast rampage involved a large number of swordsmen dying under the claws and fangs of the demon beasts. Similarly, the demon beasts would also die on a large scale.
With Demon Shaker City as the center, the land within a radius of a hundred li was completely soaked in the blood of demon beasts and swordsmen. After every great battle, the blood would spread like a lake, and would gradually seep into the ground under the scorching sun. After a few times, the ground would turn into a bloody soil. It would remain dark red all year round, and would only deepen over the past thousand years.
Every time the Demonic Beasts went on a rampage, in addition to causing a large number of deaths, the Demon Shaker City would also be damaged. The minor damage would be the city walls being damaged. The major damage would be the last time when one million Demonic Beasts went on a rampage, which destroyed half of the city.
After every damage, no matter what, the Great Kun Royal Family would definitely provide funds to rebuild the city. Many scattered swordsmen among the common folk would also provide manpower to help rebuild the city. After all, after a thousand years, Demon Shaker City's function was no longer just to defend against demon beast rampages. It also had other uses. For example, it was an indispensable place for swordsmen who entered the Demon Shaker Plain to train or to make a living.
Chu Mu withdrew his gaze from the city walls and walked towards the city gates of Demon Shaker City.
The city gates of Demon Shaker City faced the Demon Shaker Plain. The entire city gate was ten meters tall and eight meters wide. It was dark red in color and extremely thick. It was forged from refined steel and there were fist-sized semicircular protrusions on it. The entire city gate was covered in crisscrossing scratches.
The city gates were wide open, but there were no guards at the foot of the city gates. This was different from other cities.
People constantly walked out of the city gates and entered the city gates. Basically, people could be seen coming in and out of the city gates with swords in their hands or on their backs. Every single one of them had a strong or weak sword aura emanating from their bodies. Every single one of them was a swordsman.
Chu Mu also saw some strange-looking people. Some of them were bare-chested and only wore a pair of pants. Some of them had hair of several different colors. Some of them wore masks on their faces. Some of them had tattoos on their exposed skin. There were even some who only had one eye and a grin on their face.
This Demon Shaker City was truly a gathering place for strange people.
Raising his head to look at the top of the city gates, Xiao Chen saw another rectangular piece of steel embedded in it. Three large scarlet words were written on it: Demon Shaker City.
These three words were like a dragon surging out of the sea. They contained a sharp and domineering aura. It was as if an emperor had appeared in front of everyone and looked down on the world. Anyone with a weak will would be so intimidated that they would be unable to move.
It was said that these three words were personally written by the emperor of the Great Kun Royal Family after the Demon Shaker City was built. There was a powerful energy protecting it, allowing this piece of steel to not be damaged by the demonic beasts' rampages. On the other hand, if a person or demonic beast intentionally or unintentionally tried to destroy this steel plaque, they would be counterattacked by the energy on it. They would be killed with a single strike.
One had to know that every emperor of the Great Kun Royal Family was also a powerful swordsman. Their bloodline was extraordinary. It was passed down from generation to generation, causing their talents to surpass ordinary people. In addition to the many treasures, resources, techniques, and secret techniques, every emperor of the Great Kun Royal Family would at least have the cultivation of the Origin Realm.
Chu Mu's soul was very powerful. He easily got rid of the intimidating aura from the three words. He lowered his head and looked at his shabby robe that looked like a beggar's. He then walked into the city gates with large strides.
"I have to find an inn to stay in first. Then, I will buy some suitable clothes." Muttering to himself, Chu Mu followed the crowd into the Demon Shaker City. At the same time, he was planning his next step in his mind. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.
