"The effect is actually this good."
Alkaid himself was somewhat surprised.
Refining Void!
Refine everything!
The demon cultivator's Demon Body, the Demon Race's True Body, the Divine Race's Divine Body, including the Human Race Dongtian, all could be used by those in the Void Refinement Realm to bolster their own strength.
However...
Apart from elders passing on their knowledge to their juniors, not all cultivators are willing to be refined by someone in the Void Refinement Realm.
When they realized the situation was irreversible, cultivators would generally choose to self-detonate, preferring death over allowing the enemy to even take a pound of their flesh.
And demon cultivators...
Would likewise use their power to erode a cultivator's Dongtian.
In the end, even if the cultivator could refine the demon cultivator, repairing the Dongtian would also consume a great deal of energy.
If not handled well, it could result in a loss outweighing the gains.
But after Alkaid's Dongtian merged with the Void Heart, it had seemingly begun to transform into a small world, exhibiting extremely high resistance to the erosion of Demonic Flames.
Even in the face of the Evil Eye's desperate counterattack at the brink of death, it failed to significantly impact his Dongtian.
"Apart from the increase in cultivation, this Dao Artifact is also an unexpected joy."
Alkaid stretched out his hand in the air.
The Thunder Halberd fell into his grasp.
While cultivators of the Thunder Dao were not many, especially compared to the Great Void Path, it was still a Dao Artifact and could certainly fetch a handsome price.
Beyond cultivation and Dao Artifacts...
Alkaid briefly sensed the rich experience accumulated through "Demon Hunting."
"Demons, demons, the Demon Race and demon cultivators really are cut from the same cloth."
The Demon Race would cultivate the Heavenly Demon True Body.
And demon cultivators would cultivate the Heavenly Demon Origin.
No matter what life form, those who embark on the path of demon cultivation would slowly turn into something akin to "vapour" and "energy".
Formless and shapeless.
Such life forms were obviously classified as belonging to alien races.
"Demon Hunting" would take effect accordingly.
"One Hollow Void demon cultivator, one Refining Void demon cultivator..."
With a thought, he allocated all the experience to "Immortal Path: Shattering Void".
Suddenly, the branch that had been stagnant for some time grew once more, reaching 36% before stopping.
As the progress increased, a multitude of insights into the Shattered Void Realm, including its most crucial Dao Techniques, surged into his mind.
And as many Dao Techniques flashed by, one in particular caught Alkaid's attention.
Quickly, the cultivation insights of that particular Dao Technique flooded his mind.
"Finally, it has emerged, the Origin Dao—Supreme Human Emperor."
A hint of surprise flickered in Alkaid's eyes.
At present, with the full mastery of Sword of the Void and Void Blink, he could actually spar with those strong in the Shattered Void Realm.
However, the strength of his Dongtian was too weak, his Origin too scant; he could perhaps contend with the Shattered Void for a short time, but over a prolonged period, his Dongtian would become unstable, which equates to the so-called "depletion of True Qi" and lacking subsequent strength.
Now that he had unlocked the Origin Dao, Supreme Human Emperor, and especially since this Dao's understanding pointed directly to a full mastery...
Respect filled their voices as the three of them saluted.
Alkaid glanced at the three.
Each Hollow Void was a renowned figure in the Northern Sea Star.
Among the three, one was an Elder from the Heavenly Dao Sect, known by his Daoist name, Mo Ye.
The other two were Mist Hidden True Monarch of Mist State and Sword Feather True Monarch of Wing Sword Sect in Crane State.
Both were affiliated forces of the Heavenly Dao Sect.
After all, close to the territory of the Yin Moon Sect, which Elder inside the Heavenly Dao Sect would want to come to the front line and face the mortal threat from the Yin Moon Sect, unless they were being punished?
Only those without territories or backers, willing to risk their lives, would take up guarding the borders for the Heavenly Dao Sect in exchange for ruling a state, starting their own sect, and spreading their legacy.
Observing the few, Alkaid nodded and said, "The leader of the Yin Moon Sect has been executed. Should demon cultivators invade again, do not hesitate, kill them directly! If a Hollow Void demon cultivator appears, report it immediately!"
He spoke, emphasizing a bit more, "The reinforcements from the Heavenly Dao Sect are often out of reach, but now that I am stationed in the Southern Region, I will not allow the Yin Moon Sect to wreak havoc in the South again. Likewise, I do not wish for anyone to be duplicitous, concealing the atrocities of demon cultivators for whatever reason, understand?"
"Please rest assured, Sect Leader, now that we have pledged our allegiance to Heavenly Dao Sect, we will most certainly stand firm in our position,"
True Monarch Mist Hidden quickly said.
True Monarch Sword Feather seemed to react even faster as he followed up with agreement, "Since Wing Sword Sect is based in the Southern Region, it is only right that we follow the orders of Alkaid Sect Leader as the lord of the Southern Region. Please be assured, Sect Leader, we will do our utmost to guard Crane State for you."
Hearing Sword Feather True Monarch's words, Mist Hidden True Monarch also realized what was meant.
The comment from Alkaid Sect Leader that Heavenly Dao Sect's reach did not extend this far meant that from now on, they would take orders from him as the supreme authority of the Southern Region.
The commands of Heavenly Dao Sect...
would be secondary to those of their own Southern Region's lord.
In that moment, True Monarch Mist Hidden hastily added, "From now on, should Sect Leader Alkaid issue any orders, just give the word and Mist Hidden will spare no effort in carrying out your instructions."
Alkaid gave a slight nod.
He paid no attention to Mo Ye and, with a flash of his figure, was about to take his leave.
But at this moment, Mo Ye stepped forward and said, "Sect Leader, please wait."
"Hmm?" Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire
Alkaid glanced at the Elder who came from the orthodox line of Heavenly Dao Sect, "What matter?"
"The Refining Void demon cultivator that the Sect Leader just executed... is it Evil Eye Peak's Peak Master—Evil Pupil from one of Yin Moon Sect's Twenty-Three Peaks?"
"Correct,"
Alkaid nodded slightly.
"Does the Sect Leader know why I chose to come to this dangerous frontier region of Mysterious State?"
As Mo Ye spoke, he seemed to think his question was somewhat pretentious and laughed at himself, "A thousand years ago, when Sect Leader Song expanded the territory, my Mo Family has settled and thrived in Mysterious State. Eight hundred years ago, after Sect Leader Song was killed for betraying the sect, Yin Moon Sect took the opportunity to invade extensively. After the battle, not one of the one thousand three hundred and eighty-six members of my Mo Family survived... all perished here..."
A flicker of pain crossed his eyes, "Six hundred years ago, when I reached Hollow Void, I volunteered to come to Mysterious State, wanting to confront Yin Moon Sect. However, over the years, while the Sect Master was in charge of the Southern Region, they only sought to protect themselves without any attempt to expand northward. For six hundred years... I have wasted six hundred years..."
Having said this, the Void Realm cultivator looked at Alkaid with bright, piercing eyes, "Now there is a new master in the Southern Region, and in Sect Leader Alkaid, I see a talent, means, and boldness that surpasses even Sect Leader Song of the past. In you, I see the opportunity for the Southern Region to once again counterattack Yin Moon Sect and expand its territories! Therefore... I earnestly request that if, in the future, you decide to wage war against Yin Moon Sect, I wish to be the vanguard for the Sect Leader, charging at the forefront against Yin Moon Sect."
Alkaid, listening to Mo Ye's words, was somewhat moved.
"You have been thinking about counterattacking Yin Moon Sect for six hundred years; you must have a considerable understanding of them, right?"
Alkaid asked.
Mo Ye's spirits lifted as he quickly replied, "I have been collecting information about Yin Moon Sect for all these years!"
"Organize it and send it to me,"
Alkaid said.
The Southern Region bordered Yin Moon Sect, and frictions between the two had never ceased.
This time Yin Moon Sect had sent a Refining Void powerhouse all the way to the headquarters of the Southern Region, a confrontation between the two was inevitable sooner or later.
Knowing both oneself and the enemy is the only way to fight a hundred battles without danger of defeat.
