Immortality began with the Demon Suppression Division

Roar!

Accompanied by the rising and falling waves.

With a roar,

A water monster with dark blue fur and a pair of scarlet eyes peeking out from its head quietly crawled ashore.

Wherever it crawls, it leaves behind a trail of damp, watery remnants.

The monster's fierce eyes were filled with undisguised terror.

It's as if some terrifying creature is chasing after it beneath the river that it once relied on for survival.

This made him panic and desperately choose to go ashore.

Even if going ashore means facing threats from human martial artists.

Perhaps, in the mind of the water monster, what lies beneath the water is what terrifies it more.

Just as the lake monster was about to escape into the inland area.

A whistling wind came from afar, blowing the dark blue fur that covered the water monster.

It was a long sword, its surface gleaming with golden, scale-like patterns in the sunlight.

The blade was covered with a faint layer of true energy.

The blade transformed into a sharp straight line, instantly piercing the water monster's heart, and the protective aura covering the blade instantly shattered its life force.

[Slay the little water monster (and steal its blood) to gain 170 years of lifespan.]

Lifespan: 18/3550.

Luo Chen and his group gradually came into view.

laugh!

He pulled the golden scale from the demon's heart, came to the shore, and gently stirred the water, letting the blood on the blade dissipate.

"How many is this recently?"

Luo Chen's gaze fell on the river, and he spoke in a calm tone.

Behind him, Wang Yue and the others who were dealing with the demon corpses turned around and said.

"Boss, this is the ninth demon."

Luo Chen stood with his hands behind his back on the riverbank, his brows furrowed as he looked down at the flowing river.

Upon hearing Wang Yue's report, his brows furrowed even more deeply.

I have been in Bailongjiang for half a month.

The area he was in charge of was inhabited by minor demons.

But he always felt that there were demons lurking in the depths of the river.

But he dared not go into the water rashly, and could only deal with it from the shore.

This feeling is so frustrating.

Wang Yue went to the shore to wash the bloodstains off his hands.

The other four demon-suppressing envoys stood guard around the area.

It is worth mentioning that, because the Demon Suppression Division of Qingyuan Town was severely short-handed, he, as the Demon Suppression Captain, still had only these five Demon Suppression Envoys under his command.

However, Luo Chen's strength is considerable and sufficient to handle many situations.

Although the strength of his blood and qi that he is currently displaying is still at the peak of the Blood Refining stage.

But now, probably no one in the entire Demon Suppression Division believes it anymore.

His track record speaks for itself.

No one can underestimate Luo Chen.

Luo Chen was considering whether he should raise his revealed strength to the early stage of the Profound Aperture realm.

It feels like burying one's head in the sand.

But after thinking about it, I didn't try too hard.

You all thought I was hiding my Profound Aperture Realm strength.

Actually, I've already reached a state of divine inspiration.

His gaze fell on the panel. In the past month or so of cultivation, he had basically devoted a year of his lifespan to each cultivation session.

[Realm: Divine Intent (45% Initial Manifestation of Divine Thought)]

No more, no less; in his view, the progress was average.

But Li Changsheng felt like he had seen a ghost when he was with him.

Because Luo Chen was cultivating right under his nose.

Li Changsheng was certain that Luo Chen had no special inheritance or had consumed rare and precious herbs to nourish his soul.

Without these prerequisites.

Luo Chen's progress was terrifying; even though Li Chang had lived for over five thousand years, he had never seen such a freak.

If he hadn't secretly examined Luo Chen's soul, it wouldn't seem like he had been possessed by an old monster.

He's going to stay away from that kid.

It's easy to imagine how much Luo Chen's performance shocked Li Changsheng.

Ke Luochen was unaware of this.

Because they knew that Zhuge Xing, a prodigy on the Hidden Dragon List, had already reached the peak of Divine Intent at the age of 29.

My rate of progress is probably quite reasonable.

This completely ignores the huge gap in the heritage and resources that the two individuals came into contact with.

"Hey kid, something's watching you underwater."

Li Changsheng's voice rang in Luo Chen's ears.

Luo Chen stood on the shore and spoke to Wang Yue.

"You should stay away from the shore."

"Boss?" Wang Yue asked, puzzled, but upon seeing Luo Chen's serious expression, he immediately shut up and led the others away from the shore.

Is it coming?

Luo Chen gripped the hilt of the Golden Scale Blade, his gaze calmly fixed on the water's surface.

One breath... ten breaths...

I waited for a full fifteen minutes.

The river remained calm and still.

Luo Chen's gaze sharpened as he looked downstream, sensing a demonic aura rapidly fleeing into the distance.

"It's scared, tsk tsk!"

Li Changsheng's voice rang out, filled with disappointment and frustration.

Because in his perception, the fleeing figure should belong to the aquatic creatures of the Dragon Palace.

Upon seeing these aquatic creatures, who were already intimidated before even engaging in battle.

Li Changsheng immediately felt embarrassed, after all, just a few months ago, he was the chief steward of the Dragon Palace.

Luo Chen sheathed the golden scale in his hand and turned to leave.

"Boss, what's going on?"

Wang Yue and the others gathered around, their faces filled with worry.

"It's nothing, just a little demon that escaped."

Luo Chen looked relaxed, putting no psychological pressure on the others.

On the way back to the main camp.

He was already considering whether or not to learn a martial arts technique that was good for underwater combat.

After all, it would take other martial artists many years to master a martial art.

But he only lost some of his lifespan.

Return to the Demon Suppression Division's camp.

Wang Yue took the spoils from the demons to register his achievements.

Luo Chen then strolled around the camp.

Although demons have been frequently seen coming ashore in Bailongjiang recently, the remnants of the Dragon Palace have rarely been seen.

Luo Chen also asked Li Changsheng and received the answer.

"Your Demon Suppression Division regards the aquatic creatures as your greatest enemy, but how can those aquatic creatures not fear you as well?"

Especially after losing the protection of the Dragon King.

Those aquatic creatures were all three points weaker in terms of aura when they saw the Demon Suppression Division.

Luo Chen was speechless upon hearing this answer.

But thinking about it carefully, it makes a lot of sense.

This has led to the current standoff between the Demon Suppression Bureau and the aquatic tribes.

There were no large-scale conflicts on either side, but minor skirmishes continued.

We passed by a campsite.

Luo Chen paused slightly because someone was calling him from behind.

He turned around, thinking to himself that what was bound to happen had finally happened.

Behind him, in front of the camp gate, a woman in a blue robe leaned against the door frame, giving him a kind smile.

"Luo Chen, I think we should formally get to know each other!"

Zhuge Xing looked at the boy opposite him with interest.

Young, too young.

According to the information he had, the opponent's current level was at least two hundred acupoints opened.

Such talent.

If the other party is this strong in the Divine Realm, then his talent is no weaker than that person's!

"Greetings, Lord Souji."

The other party greeted him with a smile, and Luo Chen, as a subordinate, could only clasp his hands in a gesture of respect.

"Hehe, there's no need for that. Changyue mentioned you before, so we've known each other for a long time."

Zhuge Xing gestured for him to come forward.

Luo Chen paused slightly, but still walked into the tent.

In his mind, he frantically sent telepathic messages to Li Changsheng.

"Senior, are you there?"

"I need your help urgently!"

"Quiet down, I'm watching. This kid seems easy to talk to."

"..."
