I Can Strengthen Everything

Chapter 192: Chapter 112: True Dragon Soul, Celestial Yuan Tiangang

Yuan Tiangang smiled faintly. "No need to be so formal. I called you here just to meet you. Sit down, let’s talk."

Hearing this, Fang Xing bowed, then sat on the stone stool by the stone table, his back ramrod straight.

Steward Yang poured him a cup of hot tea, then exited the courtyard.

"You’re quite an impressive young man. Your Essence, Qi, and Spirit are abundant, and you’ve even condensed a Yin God."

"To condense a Yin God in the True Qi Realm... you’re even more formidable than I was back in my day," Yuan Tiangang said, looking at him with a beaming smile.

Hearing this, Fang Xing’s heart tightened.

’He saw through to my spirit and soul with a single glance. The gap between us is immense.’

At such close range, despite Yuan Tiangang’s friendly demeanor, Fang Xing felt an immense, invisible pressure.

"Commander, you flatter me. I was only able to condense my Yin God due to some fortunate encounters."

Fang Xing said this with composure, neither servile nor overbearing.

Yuan Tiangang smiled and took a sip of tea. "Fortunate encounters are a form of strength in themselves. Being able to condense a Yin God proves your fortune is profound."

"Looking at you, I’d guess you’re only about twenty, right?"

"To answer the Commander, I just turned twenty not long ago," Fang Xing replied truthfully.

Yuan Tiangang nodded. "A twenty-year-old Martial Artist at the Middle Stage of True Qi who has also condensed his own Yin God... you are quite the prodigy."

Hearing this, Fang Xing sat up even straighter and said, "The world is full of geniuses, as common as carp crossing a river. What I’ve accomplished is nothing special."

"In terms of Cultivation, it truly isn’t anything special," Yuan Tiangang said lightly.

Fang Xing: "..."

"However, to be able to condense a Yin God, and even reach the Yin Spirit Peak... now that is rare. You’re on par with the Core Disciples of the Upper Sects. Truly remarkable."

Yuan Tiangang said with a sigh.

"There are probably many who have condensed a Yin God; perhaps they just haven’t revealed it," Fang Xing said.

Yuan Tiangang nodded lightly. "Mm, there’s some truth to what you say. It seems that girl knew what she was doing when she transferred you here. She’ll have another capable assistant now."

Fang Xing’s expression turned serious. "I am grateful for Lord Hong’s high regard. I will certainly do my utmost to slay Demons and Monsters!"

"It’s good to have such confidence, but the Demons and Monsters of this world are not as simple as you think. The forces of the Demons and Monsters are an extremely powerful entity,"

Yuan Tiangang said.

Fang Xing nodded.

He had never underestimated Demons and Monsters.

Especially after his strength had increased, the problem of Demons and Monsters loomed even larger.

’To not know their true appearance is to not know true fear!’

Even now, what he had come into contact with was merely the tip of the iceberg of this world.

"Do you think the situation with the Demons and Monsters in Cang Province is severe right now?" Yuan Tiangang suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Fang Xing thought for a moment and said, "Commander, by comparison, I believe the scourge of Demons and Monsters in Cang Province is the most severe in all of Celestial South."

"Heh heh..."

Listening to Fang Xing’s words, Yuan Tiangang gave a light chuckle. "Within Celestial South, it is indeed severe. However, looking at the Great Jing as a whole, the situation in Cang Province can only be considered normal."

Fang Xing: "...?!"

’This is normal?’

’In many places, nine out of ten homes are already empty.’

"Do you think I’m exaggerating?" Yuan Tiangang asked, looking at him.

"Commander, you are far-sighted and your perspective is profound, far beyond what I can compare to."

Fang Xing replied.

’One’s perspective is shaped by their position.’

To him, the situation in Cang Province was dire, but from the perspective of someone at Yuan Tiangang’s level of power, it would certainly be different.

"Do you know where in the Great Jing the Demons and Monsters are most numerous?" Yuan Tiangang asked.

"That... I do not know." Fang Xing shook his head. He hadn’t paid too much attention to that sort of thing.

After all, the territory of Great Jing was vast, spanning tens of thousands of miles in every direction.

The area of a single province was larger than an entire country from his previous life.

And Great Jing had thirteen such provinces.

The land was immense.

Even an ordinary Martial Artist might not be able to travel beyond the borders of Great Jing in their entire lifetime.

"The Southern Border!"

Yuan Tiangang said.

"In the Southern Border, in the Land of Netherworld, the Demons and Monsters are beyond imagination. The Demons and Monsters you know of would be but the tip of the iceberg in the Southern Border."

"The Southern Border..."

Hearing the name Yuan Tiangang spoke, Fang Xing’s heart trembled slightly.

The Southern Border was adjacent to Celestial South, and Cang Province was a pivotal hub between the two great provinces.

’A place where even a Celestial Martial Saint considers the demonic scourge to be severe... I’m afraid it’s no different from a Purgatory in the Mortal World.’

"The Demons and Monsters in Cang Province are merely a small fraction that has strayed over from the Southern Border," Yuan Tiangang sighed.

"A small fraction..."

Fang Xing fell silent.

After a long moment, he looked up at Yuan Tiangang. "I believe that sooner or later, these Demons and Monsters will face a final reckoning. When that day comes, we can restore the Southern Border to a Pure Land under clear skies."

Hearing this, Yuan Tiangang smiled. "It’s good for a young man to have such thoughts. However, the reason the Demons and Monsters can run rampant in the Southern Border isn’t because of the creatures themselves, but because of a behemoth standing behind them."

!!!

A jolt went through Fang Xing’s heart at Yuan Tiangang’s words.

’A behemoth behind the Demons and Monsters?!’

"Commander, could you mean... Great Wei?" Fang Xing asked, looking at Yuan Tiangang.

Past the Southern Border lay the Great Wei Territory.

It was also Great Jing’s formidable rival.

Yuan Tiangang shook his head gently. "Great Wei is a threat, but it is not the greatest one. The power behind the Demons and Monsters is a far greater threat than Great Wei."

’A greater threat than Great Wei?!’

Fang Xing’s pupils shrank.

Great Wei might be slightly weaker than Great Jing in terms of national power, but not by much. Yet, from the way Yuan Tiangang spoke, it seemed the power behind the Demons and Monsters was even more terrifying than Great Wei.

"Commander, are you perhaps referring to an Evil Cult?" Fang Xing asked Yuan Tiangang.

Yuan Tiangang shook his head. "The Evil Cults are not yet a major threat. The power behind the Demons and Monsters is... the Demon Alliance!"

"The Demon Alliance!!"

Hearing the name Yuan Tiangang spoke, Fang Xing’s expression grew grim.

This was the first time he had ever heard of a force of Demons and Monsters.

’The Demon Alliance!’

’That sounds incredibly powerful!’
