The appearance of the Soul Fighting Machine took everyone by surprise and altered the plans of many.
The grand ceremony was originally scheduled to last for three days. However, the Great Immortal Gates had lost all interest in staying and began to take their leave one after another to report on the matter.
The Sanqing Immortal Sect did not lag behind.
「Three days later.」
The first batch of Soul Fighting Machine production lines was ready. Dugu Qingqian, the head of the Sword Sect, personally oversaw their delivery to Mount Shu, Longhu, Shan Hai, and other major Immortal Sects.
Halfway through the journey, Saint Manifestation powerhouses from the various immortal sects personally arrived to take over the escort.
The sheer scale of the operation shocked those unaware of the truth. They could only vaguely guess that a major change was coming to the cultivation world, as the top Immortal Sects were all making significant moves.
Mo Wuwei, in her capacity as the chief engineer of the Soul Fighting Machine project, accompanied the deliveries to the various Great Immortal Gates. She was responsible for overseeing installation, training, and all related matters, keeping her incredibly busy.
Wang Xiu wasn’t idle either. He was constantly prying information from Emperor Guba, grinding for so experience on the side.
"I hear your Demon Race can be subdivided into hundreds, if not thousands, of smaller clans, each with distinct Divine Skills. Is that true?"
"Of course! It’s no exaggeration to say that the biodiversity of our Demon Race is in a league of its own, even across all the myriad realms. Unlike you humans... all just two eyes, one mouth, two arms, and two legs!"
[Ding!]
[Detected soone bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining Mana 2,888!]
"For example?"
"For instance, there’s the Tree Demon Clan. They typically look just like ordinary trees, waiting for people to approach before launching a surprise attack. It’s like the heavens and the earth are collapsing; it’s so terrifying that you wouldn’t even know how to defend yourself... Unless one possesses the most powerful of eye techniques, detecting them is incredibly difficult, even for soone several realms higher!"
[Ding!]
[Detected soone bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining Mana 2,888!]
"There’s also the Earth Demon Clan. As long as their feet touch the ground, they can continuously draw upon the imnse power of the earth, becoming immortal and indestructible..."
[Ding!]
[Detected soone bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining Mana 2,888!]
"The Sea Demon Clan, born in the vast oceans, can borrow the mighty power of the waves. They are like gods of war in the sea. Even when facing a powerful enemy an entire realm above them, they can maintain an inherently undefeatable position!"
[Ding!]
[Detected soone bragging nearby. Congratulations to the Host for gaining Mana 2,888!]
"..."
"The Ox Demon Clan is imnsely strong. They are the descendants of the ancient, world-disrupting Ox Demons and the Destructive Sky Demons. They pursue the philosophy that pure strength can overco all techniques, making them incredibly terrifying. The strongest among them can grasp the sun and moon, tread upon the stars, and carry the Primordial Divine Mountains. They can battle True Dragons and True Phoenixes of the sa realm without being at a disadvantage!"
[Ding!]
[Detected soone bragging wildly nearby, triggering a critical hit and reaching the System’s peak. Congratulations to the Host for gaining Mana 8,664 and Mana Quality 8,664!]
[Congratulations to the Host for acquiring the Great Yin Yang Demon Ruo Seal’s Complete Experience Card!]
"..."
Hmm? Another huge drop?
Wang Xiu was slightly startled. He quickly checked and found it was another supre technique of The Demonic Path.
What set this one apart was that the Great Yin Yang Demon Ruo Seal was divided into the Yin Demon Ruo Seal and the Yang Demon Ruo Seal.
When the Yin Seal was deployed, it filled the air with dense Demonic Qi, capable of transforming the surrounding void into a domain of death that blotted out the sun, making it unspeakably terrifying.
The Yang Seal, however, was righteous and forthright, fierce and domineering, with the power to shatter the heavens and obliterate the earth.
The combination of Yin and Yang was the final form, its power imasurable.
This supre technique was created by a Demon Emperor from ancient tis. He took on human form and wandered the mortal realm for thousands of years, rging the teachings of Buddhism, Taoism, and The Demonic Path to create it. It contained the profound mysteries of Yin and Yang, making it exceptionally abstruse.
Frankly, if not for the System prompt, Wang Xiu would have found it hard to imagine how such a supre technique could be related to The Demonic Path at all.
It seems not all mbers of the Demon Race are single-mindedly cruel and bloodthirsty. I must not underestimate them! Wang Xiu silently reminded himself. This race had been active in the world for so many years, standing firm and unyielding; they could not be taken lightly.
Of course, the greatest significance of this technique to Wang Xiu was that he now had another thod he could use without any reservations.
...
As Guba revealed more and more, Wang Xiu began adding images of [Demon Race Enemies] to the Soul Fighting Machine, striving to replicate their racial characteristics and weaknesses on a one-to-one basis.
"Are you... planning to use this to train their troops?" Guba wasn’t a fool; he quickly deduced Wang Xiu’s intentions.
"Do you have anything else to add?" Wang Xiu didn’t hide anything, performing every action right in front of him.
"..." Guba was speechless, unsure what to say for a mont. He was, after all, a demon. Even though he had already decided which side to stand on, the blatant act of helping the Human Race deal with the demonic host still left him with so reservations.
But soon, that hesitation vanished.
No matter what, fence-sitters are the most despised! Since I’ve made my choice, I have to stick with it to the end! Guba’s gaze grew firm. To be precise, he saw himself as a defector from the enemy camp.
As a defector and a captive, how could he possibly hope to turn his fate around without performing a major ritorious service? How could the future Demon Emperor place his trust in him?
"I do!" Having resolved his internal conflict, he spoke with conviction, proactively pointing out, "The Tree Demon Clan fears fire. Their weakness is at their roots, but that is also their most heavily guarded area... And while the Earth Demon Clan can draw strength from the earth, they are easily defeated once their connection to the ground is severed..."
With Guba’s active cooperation, Wang Xiu’s progress in simulating the demon army went very smoothly. He easily created a large number of demon images, adding them all to the Soul Fighting Machine.
...
Soon, three months had passed.
Soul Fighting Machines began to appear on the market in the cultivation world, instantly causing a massive uproar.
