Jackie Chan Adventures: I, the Holy Lord's Brother!

Chapter 115: Releasing the Family
After hundreds of shadow warriors merged into the shadows, one shadow warrior remained and told Shentian some things through his thoughts.

It turned out that these were the magic materials that Shentian had asked the shadow warriors to collect, and they had almost been collected.

Now we can use the soul refining magic array at any time to awaken Qing Mei and the others who have been petrified.

If this is the case, now seems to be the best time to wake up Qing Mei and the others.

After all, the current positive energy has expanded to a peak. Even if Qing Mei and others are awakened, the impact on the balance of yin and yang will not be too great.

Thinking of this, Shentian flashed, and the rabbit's magical power allowed him to go ten miles away in an instant.

A few minutes later, when Shentian came back, he had two dead animal corpses in his hands, which were just right to be used as soul materials for the soul refining magic array.

Seeing Shentian start drawing magic array patterns on the ground without saying anything, the Holy Lord asked in confusion: "What are you doing? We don't have much time."

As Shen Tian drew the array pattern, he said, "Of course, I'm preparing to release my sealed clan members."

As he spoke, Shentian waved his hand and opened a passage connecting to the Shadow Kingdom.

The stone statues of Qing Mei and others were then displayed in front of the Holy Lord. In addition to Qing Mei, Kuang Ming, Shan Yuan and Zhun Yun, there were another seventy-six clansmen.

Originally, the number of clansmen should have been larger, but over the past five thousand years, some of them were damaged by natural disasters such as earthquakes.

These are all that are left at the end.

The Holy Lord looked at these stone statues, especially when he sensed the demon-level strength of the four Qingmei people, he said in disbelief: "I am really curious, how did you turn you and them into stone?"

"Among the black magic, there is no magic that is strong enough to seal a monarch-level demon."

Shen Tian chuckled and said, "I told you, this is a secret. I'm sorry I can't tell you."

"Besides, shouldn't you be curious about what I plan to do with them?"

"Haha, what else can we do with them? It's nothing more than letting them create trouble and buy time for us." The Holy Lord said in a natural tone.

This little thought.

He could still see it.

Upon hearing this, Shen Tian paused drawing the patterns and turned around to say, "Since you know this, why don't you release the group of evil dragons you've been keeping under the palace?"

"Others may not know, but I know everything. The number of evil dragons you raise in your palace must be at least tens of thousands!"

"If you release this evil dragon, it can at least buy us a month or so."

The Holy Lord was stunned. Only the Demon Little Dragon and himself knew about raising the evil dragon. He had never mentioned it to Shentian, and it was even more impossible for the Demon Little Dragon to tell Shentian.

Then why is it that Shentian knows it so clearly even though I did it so secretly?

But the Holy Lord certainly wouldn't ask about his doubts, as that would make him look foolish. So, his face darkened and he said, "My evil dragon has its uses. It would be a waste to use it against Jackie Chan and the others."

"Haha, it's up to you. It's just a suggestion from me. As for whether it will be done or not, it's not up to me." Shentian shrugged indifferently and continued drawing on the ground.

Finally, half a quarter of an hour later, a large soul-refining magic array centered around two animal corpses was completed.

Closing his eyes and clasping his hands together, Shentian recited the spell of the Soul Refining Magic Array without hesitation: "Aha Yi Xiha, Aha Yi Xiha, Aha Yi Xiha"

As the spell sounded, shrill howls came from the bodies of the two wild boars.

The invisible magic force forcibly separated the wild boar's soul from the corpse, and refined it into seventy-nine soul essences of equal size in mid-air three feet above the ground.

After casually glancing at the soul essences and confirming that they were sufficient to lift Qing Mei and the others from their petrified state, Shen Tian controlled the soul essences to drip onto the stone statue.

Click-click-click-click-click
As the soul essence was absorbed, the seventy-nine stone statues began to shatter one by one, and gradually a dazzling purple light burst out from the cracks of the stone statues.

When cracks appeared all over the body of each stone statue, with a loud bang, countless pieces of rubble suddenly shot out in Shentian's sight.

But before Shentian could check whether all the stone statues had been successfully freed from their petrified state, a light blue figure suddenly emerged from the dust of the explosion and pounced on Shentian.

Looking closely, it turned out to be Qing Mei.

The latter's appearance was the same as before he was sealed, without any change, except that his strength was much weaker.

"Master, you have finally released Qingmei from her petrified state!" Qingmei hugged Shentian excitedly, like a driven puppy seeking comfort.

In response, Shen Tian reached out his hand, pushed Qing Mei's head back, and said, "Alright, alright, now is not the time for small talk."

Qing Mei pouted, looking unwilling, but noticing the Holy Lord and the devil dragon beside her, Qing Mei could only suppress her emotions and stood quietly beside Shen Tian.

At this time, the other clansmen who had been released from their petrified state, at the signal of Shan Yuan and Kuang Ming, simultaneously knelt on one knee towards Shen Tian: "Your Majesty, we pay our respects to you!"

"Everyone, wake up! Your successful awakening from your long slumber has already proven your loyalty to me!"

"From now on, you are my most precious subordinates. There is no need to salute me anymore!" Shentian raised his arm, and an invisible force lifted Shan Yuan and the others up.

Seeing Shentian's actions, Shan Yuan and the others all looked flattered.

Shan Yuan, in particular, immediately knelt down again, as if he wanted Shen Tian to revoke his decision.

But Shen Tian didn't give Shan Yuan a chance to speak, and said directly: "The world today has long changed. Demonic energy no longer exists in this era. If we want to dominate the world again, we need to fundamentally change this world!"

"And this process is bound to attract obstruction from those self-proclaimed righteous mages."

"So, I need you to go around the world and spread darkness and fear!"

"If you are stopped by a righteous mage during this period, there is no need to confront them head-on. Just leave if you can. As long as you have the green mountains, you will never run out of firewood!"

"My lord, are there still righteous wizards in this era?" Shan Yuan said with some disbelief.

Shentian nodded: "Of course, and the righteous mages of this era are extremely powerful, so you must be careful in all your actions!"

"Yes, we will do our best!" Shan Yuan led all the clansmen to half-kneel down again.

A moment later, more than seventy demons spread their wings at the same time and flew towards all parts of the world.
