Chapter 1182: Corpse Soul Sword Spirit
Zhao Fu ordered the Devils to return to the Four Soul Devil World, increase the speed at which Devils were converted, and reinforce the Four Soul Devil World. Dealing with the Devil Horn Empire would greatly rely on them.
Following this, Zhao Fu talked to Bai Shan and gave the World Pearl he had obtained from the Ancient Stem Banquet to him.
The World Pearl was a metallic pearl that was as big as a rubber ball, and it was incredibly light, weighing the same as a few feathers. However, it had immense spatial powers and was a very powerful spatial treasure.
Now, Great Qin had a way for defending against the four worlds, but this method could only be used once. Its effects would be the greatest the first time, and the enemy would be prepared if they used it a second time. As such, they had to heavily wound the four worlds this time.
Moreover, Zhao Fu had to have his body quickly recover; Great Qin already had fewer top-tier experts than the enemy, and they needed someone to stop that Yao Ming.
If it wasn't for Zhao Fu, there would be no one within Great Qin who could stop Yao Ming, and Yao Ming would be able to deal heavy blows to Great Qin. As such, no matter what, Zhao Fu had to act.
However, how could he quickly cause his body to recover?
Consummating with many women could reduce the pain from Emperor Killer, and he had some recovery effects due to the Six Desires Celestial Art, but Zhao Fu felt that it was still too slow. It was possible that a battle could erupt the next day, so Zhao Fu had to think of faster ways.
A while later, Zhao Fu went to the Corpse Soul Blood Lake, where Corpse Soul Soldiers were converted. Zhao Fu planned to enter the Corpse Soul Blood Lake, as this place could provide a large amount of fleshly power and quickly help Zhao Fu's body recover.
However, there was a certain amount of danger because the Corpse Soul Blood Lake was an extremely evil place of conversion, and it could turn a living creature into a monster.
If Zhao Fu entered it, his body would be corroded by that power, but he was prepared. He took out a sword that gave off powerful corpse soul aura; this was the Corpse Soul Sword. Zhao Fu had used the Swordcorpse Talisman on a Corpse Soul Lord, turning her into the Corpse Soul Sword. Zhao Fu rarely used this sword.
The Corpse Soul Sword gave off a faint sword light as a beautiful woman dressed in gray armor with blood-red eyes and pale skin appeared; she was the Corpse Soul Sword Spirit.
Zhao Fu took off his clothes as he said, "Help Us get rid of the evil aura!"
The Corpse Soul Sword Spirit nodded and went into the Corpse Soul Blood Lake. The bloody water started to roil and spin, and after the Corpse Soul Sword Spirit reached the center, a large whirlpool had appeared in the blood lake.
This whirlpool was not very strong, and it spun slowly and calmly. Zhao Fu walked into the blood lake and felt a powerful fleshly energy and no abnormal energy entered his body; the Corpse Soul Sword Spirit had played a key role.
Zhao Fu went to the center of the Corpse Soul Blood Lake and closed his eyes as he started to work on healing his injuries.
The Corpse Soul Sword Spirit's blood-red eyes looked at Zhao Fu. She did not say anything and instead peacefully looked at him.
Sensing her gaze, Zhao Fu opened her eyes and asked her in confusion, "What is it? Did something happen?"
The Corpse Soul Blood Sword said calmly, "Are you really going to die? What will happen to me if you die?"
Hearing this, Zhao Fu fell silent. A while later, he looked at her and said, "We will make good arrangements for you; alternatively, you can make your own choice."
"I don't want you to die!" the Corpse Soul Sword Spirit said earnestly.
Zhao Fu bitterly laughed; he did not want to die either. However, he did not have any way of dealing with this, so he could only start to make arrangements for how things would be handled after his death.
"Mm, We understand," Zhao Fu lightly replied. A sad look appeared on the Corpse Soul Sword Spirit's face; after being by Zhao Fu's side for so long, she was reluctant to part with him.
Zhao Fu once again closed his eyes and focused on healing himself.
The Corpse Soul Sword Spirit's armor turned into countless traces of aura and disappeared, revealing her alluring body. She suddenly moved towards Zhao Fu and lightly hugged him as she pressed her pale lips against his.
"I want to experience what it's like to do it with you like those other women," the Corpse Soul Sword Spirit said as she calmly looked at Zhao Fu without a trace of desire or emotion.
Zhao Fu opened his eyes, feeling quite shocked at the Corpse Soul Sword Spirit's words.
Before he could say anything, a green light flashed on the back of his hand. The Sin Dragon Sword was incredibly dissatisfied because the Corpse Soul Sword Spirit was trying to snatch something that she thought belonged to her, and she had not received it a single time.
"Owner, since you're going to die, how about you use your body to make me happy just once. Otherwise, it'll be such a pity if you die."
The Sin Dragon Sword came out of the Sword Mark. She was not wearing anything and directly leapt at Zhao Fu.
Zhao Fu was quite annoyed by her words and rapped her on the head. He refused both her and the Corpse Soul Sword Spirit; he had come here to treat his injuries, not do other things.
Four days later, Zhao Fu had mostly recovered. Even though he could not use his full strength, he could still use about 80% of it.
By now, the allied army of the four worlds were ready and were heading towards the human world. Great Qin had also completed its preparations.
The surrounding worlds paid great attention to this battle because the human world could be destroyed as a result. Each of the four worlds would split the human world, and the Great Qin Empire would disappear into history.
It seemed impossible for the Great Qin Empire to defend; the power of the four worlds was simply too great. It was mainly the Devil Horn Empire; if it wasn't for its involvement, perhaps Great Qin would have some hope.
Rumble...
The armies of the four worlds gathered together and flowed towards the human world like an apocalyptic flood. The terrifying sounds caused all creatures to sink into terror.
Their allied army had nine billion soldiers in total, and they were mostly made up of Grassi people, Half-Beast people and Elves. The Devil Horn Empire provided its devil beast army, as ordinary soldiers would most likely be injured or killed; the Devil Horn Empire evidently did not want to help the three worlds too much.
Great Qin only had seven billion or so soldiers, and they were not as scattered anymore. Most of them gathered together and defended the Great Wall; of course, some of them were guarding the Southern Continent of the Dark Demon world.
After a few days, the two armies once again faced off against each other.
Zhao Fu stood in the air, followed by countless experts, giving off an extraordinary aura. Now that Zhao Fu had mostly recovered from his injuries, he felt much more confidence.
On the other side, Yao Ming's expression was quite serious because he could sense that Zhao Fu's current self was not simple at all; he was far more powerful than last time and gave him some pressure.
At that moment, a Grassi King came out with a Contract and tried to resolve this battle.
The three worlds had already lost much of their forces and they knew that Great Qin would not be easy to deal with. They did not want to suffer more losses, so they had written a Contract and wanted Great Qin to surrender.
Chapter 1183: Ludicrous
The contents of the Contract were like the ones that Zhao Fu had signed with them before, but their positions had switched; they instead wanted Great Qin to cede three Continents to them and make all sorts of reparations. At the same time, Great Qin had to become a vassal and provide tributes of treasures and women every year.
"Hahaha..." After recovering from most of his injuries, Zhao Fu's aura naturally was not as weak as before. He coldly looked at them and said loudly, "Absolutely ludicrous! Great Qin will always fight and will never surrender."
Since there was no possibility of mediation, the two sides went into a state of having swords drawn and bows bent.
Boom!
Zhao Fu exploded out with a powerful aura and shot towards Yao Ming. Yao Ming coldly harrumphed and drew his saber to meet Zhao Fu, following which the battle between the two of them unfolded.
The battle between these two people once again signaled the start of the battle for the others.
"Roar! Roar! Roar..." Countless devil beasts roared as they flooded forwards with ferocious auras, shaking their surroundings. They seemed to be able to sweep across anything, and that aura sent half the battlefield into terror.
Facing this terrifying devil beast army, Great Qin's beasts did not directly charge up this time, and instead formed a firm defensive line.
It was mainly the 100 meter tall Corpse Soul Soldiers that raised their shields that were dozens of meters long, forming a large shield wall. The Wyverns in the air spat out flames and icy blasts, reducing the momentum of the incoming devil beast army.
Boom!
A shocking explosion sounded out as the devil beast tide gave off an aura that seemed to be able to annihilate everything smashed against the shield wall. The Corpse Soul Soldiers were barely able to stop the charge from the devil beast army.
The two sides started to fight, but Great Qin's beasts mainly defended and did not take the initiative to attack.
On the other side, the allied main army surged towards the Great Wall, and the terrifying sounds were just as shocking.
Swish, swish, swish...
The Great Qin side continuously shot out countless arrows as they defended, and they tore through the air before stabbing into their enemies' bodies.
However, this could not stop the advance of the allied army. Most of the arrows from Great Qin were blocked and did not cause too many injuries or casualties. It was a pity that Great Qin did not have any more Talisman Arrows, or else just a single wave would have resulted in countless injuries and casualties.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
Countless allied soldiers' bodies exploded out with different auras, which condensed in the air and formed massive creatures that gave off terrifying auras.
"Roarr!!" A roar sounded out as countless traces of aura formed an enormous crocodile that was hundreds of meters long and had a mouth full of sharp teeth. It gave off a savage aura as it charged towards the Great Wall.
Boom! Countless traces of green aura gathered and an explosion sounded out, sending out countless traces of sabre qi. A large saber that was hundreds of metres long appeared, rushing towards the Great Wall with power that seemed to be able to slash through anything.
"Roar!" Countless traces of fiery aura gathered in the sky and a dragon's roar sounded out as a fiery dragon that was hundreds of meters long appeared, giving off immense dragon's might as it flew towards the Great Wall.
The allied army used their Corps to create all sorts of different Corps Formations. There were 170 or so of them, and the sounds they gave off shook their surroundings; countless people could only tremble under this aura.
Great Qin's side also exploded out with an aura, forming massive Corps Formations.
There was a massive sword that gave off boundless sword qi, a Demon King that was hundreds of meters tall, a fiery woman, a statue giving off the aura of a godly spirit, a flood dragon giving off a King's aura, and a massive eagle.
The Corps Formations of both sides ferociously clashed together, creating terrifying winds. Even though Great Qin had fewer Corps Formations, they had a great advantage in quality, and a single one of Great Qin's Corps Formation could take on multiple Corps Formations of the allied army.
However, the allied army had used the cover of the Corps Formations to reach the Great Wall and started to scale it.
The battle between experts in the air was also incredibly intense. The eight Aquatic Beast Kings were struggling, as they had not fully recovered from their injuries from before, and they had to face off against even more Kings.
Under the combined attacks of the various Kings, they had been forced into a very passive state and had no opportunity to attack. They had many gashes on their bodies now.
"Demon Sun!" A ray of demonic qi shot into the sky, making it seem as if a demonic sun had appeared in the sky, giving off boundless demonic intent that shook the surroundings.
Shing!
A massive sword hum sounded out as a black sword light gave off power that could rend the heavens, and it flashed through the sky, seeming as if it could destroy anything in its path.
Cough, cough... within a large crater, Yao Ming lay on the ground and coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood. There were a few wounds on his body, making him look quite wretched, but his injuries were not too severe.
Zhao Fu stood in the air and pointed the Sky Demon Sword at Yao Ming as he coldly harrumphed, "Trash! I thought you were strong, but you've really let me down."
It was Yao Ming who had originally spoken these words because Yao Ming was quite strong and had forced Zhao Fu to use all of his strength.
Hearing these words, Yao Ming almost exploded with anger. After all, he had used these words to humiliate Zhao Fu before, and now they had been used word for word by Zhao Fu to humiliate him.
Boom!
A ten meter tall monster covered with fur and with a single horn appeared behind Yao Ming. Yao Ming directly exploded out with the power of his Nation Armament, sending out a shocking aura.
Boom!
Zhao Fu also exploded out with the Imperial Ruler Seal's power, and he held the Sky Demon Sword as he attacked Yao Ming, once again opening the battle between them.
Bang!
A muffled explosion sounded out as Yao Ming was once again blasted back by Zhao Fu with an unsightly expression on his face. Zhao Fu's strength was completely different than before, and he somewhat felt that he was not a match for him. Could it really have been that he had not recovered from his injuries?
Yao Ming could not accept this; he had been the most powerful person in this region for decades; how could he lose to a new King like Zhao Fu?
"Arghhh!" Yao Ming roared as massive amount of devil qi flowed out of him, and a devil horn appeared on his head. His aura rose to its peak, and the space around him started to collapse.
"Roar!!" Yao Ming slashed out with his saber, causing countless tracs of devil qi to sweep, forming a thousand meter long purple tiger that roared before charging at Zhao Fu with a powerful aura.
A look of shock appeared in Zhao Fu's eyes as he immediately unleashed his defensive abilities, causing his Emperor's Domain and Saint Realm Domains to appear and surround his body.
Bang!
The enormous purple tiger gave off boundless power as it sent Zhao Fu flying, and all of his defensive barriers were instantly shattered.
Below, Bai Qi surveyed the battlefield. The devil beast army had rushed to the area in front of Great Qin's beasts, and the allied army was at the Great Wall. The time was right, and Bai Qi's expression was cold as he gave out commands.
Boom!
Within the Four Souls Devil World, a magic formation activated, and a silver pearl the size of a rubber ball gave off brilliant silver light as the space around it seemed to freeze.
Chapter 1184: Teleportation Trap
At the back of where Great Qin's beasts and the devil beast army were fighting, Great Qin's soldiers got up on the Great Wall with serious expressions. They held spears that shimmered with colorful lines and looked at the terrifying devil beasts before lifting the spears.
Swish, swish, swish...
The spears turned into rays of light as they shot out. The spears did not hit the devil beast army and instead stabbed into the ground. This caused the people directing the devil beasts to disdainfully laugh.
However, in the next moment, the light from the spears entered the ground, and massive magic formations spread out.
These magic formations were all quite complex, and there seemed to be black holes at their centers. As these magic formations spread out, they exploded out with an intense attractive force, and the devil beasts within them instantly disappeared.
Some devil beasts near the magic formations were also dragged in by the powerful attractive forces, and their bodies also disappeared.
In the next moment, they reappeared within a blood-red world. Looking at this blood-red world, they started to panic, as they felt an inauspicious aura.
The devil beasts with wings tried to fly out, and those without wings tried to run out. However, the ones that flew quickly reached the top of the barrier, and they madly attacked the barrier but found that it did not budge at all.
This Four Soul Barrier had been reinforced with the four Soul Jades of the four Guardian Beasts, causing its firmness to exceed anything ordinary people could imagine. No matter how desperately the devil beasts rammed at the barrier, they were unable to affect it at all.
The devil beasts did not have much time either. Countless traces of blood-red devil qi started to invade their bodies, and in just an instant, the devil beasts' eyes became blood-red and they gave off pained howls as their bodies started to go through changes.
A tiger started to lose all of its fur and its skin became pale-white. Its head gradually became a humanoid shape, and its eyes became pure black. This tiger had become a Soul-Devouring Devil.
A massive white crane's feathers became blood-red and a massive mouth suddenly appeared where its stomach was. It looked incredibly ugly and disgusting; this white crane had turned into a terrifying Devil.
A massive python that gave off a terrifying aura struggled on the ground in pain as its body gradually shrank. It soon became a humanoid shape as a naked and enchantingly beautiful woman appeared. Her eyes were filled with savagery, without a trace of human emotions.
When the Devil leaders had said that the devil beasts could be turned into Devils incredibly easily, Zhao Fu had thought of this method to deal with them. Once they became Devils, they would obey Zhao Fu and oppose the Devil Horn Empire.
These devil beasts were all quite powerful, so after becoming Devils, they became even more powerful. With them joining Great Qin's forces, they provided a massive amount of high-tier battle power.
The magic formations from before were the teleportation traps that he had ordered the Scholars to research before. Anyone within them or close to them would be automatically teleported; under the powerful spatial effects of the World Pearl, such a thing was now possible.
Swish, swish, swish...
Spears once again flew out and more devil beasts disappeared. This caused the remaining devil beasts to feel quite startled. The Devil Horn Empire had brought 1.2 million devil beasts this time, and more than half of them had disappeared.
This caused Yao Ming to feel quite furious. He slashed at Zhao Fu, forcing him back as he said angrily, "What kind of shameless methods are you using?"
Zhao Fu coldly laughed and did not reply.
Yao Ming hurriedly ordered the devil beast army to retreat. The devil beast army had been developed painstakingly by the Devil Horn Empire, and each devil beast was quite powerful. They were part of the reason why the Devil Horn Empire was so powerful.
Seeing more than half of these devil beasts disappear, Yao Ming felt an ache in his heart, and he could not allow them to continue rashly attacking.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
Massive auras spread out as enormous humanoid plants appeared on the Great Wall, giving off shocking auras.
Before anyone could react, the flower buds on their heads blossomed into beautiful flowers. Rainbow-colored pollen floated out like a colourful drizzle. It was an incredibly beautiful but dangerous scene.
Countless allied soldiers breathed in this pollen and were instantly dragged into an illusion. One suddenly raised his face to the sky and started to weep; another stood there in terror as if he was looking at something horrifying. Some people even started attacking those close to them.
This caused the expressions of the countless Kings to fall, and they quickly gave the order for the army to retreat in order to prevent more soldiers from being caught in these illusions.
The intense battle instantly stopped as the people from the four worlds retreated far away, looking at Great Qin ahead with unsightly expressions. They felt that they had completely fallen into Great Qin's plans.
There were still two billion soldiers who had not made it out. They were powerless as they were hunted down and killed by Great Qin, causing the Kings to feel immense pain. Their eyes were filled with fury and hatred.
They had also made preparations, but they had evidently lost. The two cards that Great Qin had played were enough to heavily wound them, and if they continued to fight, they would definitely lose because Great Qin most likely had more cards up its sleeves.
Zhao Fu spoke with a trace of condescension, "What, are you not going to attack anymore?"
Yao Ming said with a cold expression, "Where did you take my devil beast army? Hand them over immediately and I'll withdraw from this battle. If you don't hand them over, the Devil Horn Empire will officially declare war against you."
"Hahaha..." Zhao Fu loudly laughed as he said, "It was your Devil Horn Empire that chose to get involved; do you regret it now? If you want to fight, we'll fight; my Great Qin Empire does not fear anyone and will destroy your Devil Horn Empire sooner or later."
Yao Ming felt furious and was about to attack, but he held himself back. After all, if he did that, they would suffer even greater losses.
"Mark my words, I'll definitely have you pay back this debt in blood," Yao Ming spat as he left the battlefield with his devil beast army, preparing to return to the Devil Horn Empire before launching an official attack against Great Qin.
The remaining Kings of the three worlds looked at each other and could also only angrily order a retreat. Since the most powerful of them, the Devil Horn Empire, was retreating, they could only do the same.
Even if they remained here, they had no way to deal with that colorful pollen. The losses they would suffer from advancing again would be immense, so they had no choice but to retreat.
Seeing them retreat, Zhao Fu did not give the order to chase after them because it was possible that they could be turned on. Their retreat evidently signaled a victory for Great Qin, causing countless people in Great Qin to cheer. Great Qin had been able to withstand this massive pressure.
News of the four worlds' defeat spread like a wild gale, shocking countless people. They had never thought that the four worlds would lose; after all, one of them was the Devil Horn Empire.
Following this, they found out that Great Qin still had many powerful tricks up its sleeves, making them feel quite shocked.
Chapter 1185: Number One Kingdom
Now, the identity of the number one Kingdom in this region was up for contention. Some said it was Great Qin, as it had defended against four worlds, while others said it was the Devil Horn Empire, as it had not gone all-out this time.
It was rumored that the Devil Horn Empire was going to officially attack the Great Qin Empire, and thinking about the battle between these two worlds, it was quite shocking. When the time came, everyone would know who the number one Kingdom was.
After the battle concluded, Zhao Fu ordered his people to clear up the battlefield. They had obtained 1.5 billion captives; the Illusion Flower Devils had been the greatest contributors to this victory.
A single Illusion Flower Devil's pollen could cover ten or so kilometers, and 50,000 Illusion Flower Devils could cover 70,000 to 80,000 kilometers. They had been especially effective because of how closely the allied soldiers had been grouped.
Moreover, the pollen did not have to be breathed in to take effect; just landing on one's skin could result in it permeating through, so it was very difficult to defend against.
Zhao Fu did not plan on retaking the three Continents in the three worlds for now. If they attacked now, Great Qin would be able to reclaim them quite easily.
However, because Great Qin's foundation was not sufficient, even if they took back those three Continents, it was likely that the three worlds would be able to re-conquer them at some point. In order to reduce unnecessary injuries and casualties, Zhao Fu planned to raise Great Qin's strength before invading again.
With the threat of Great Qin present, the three worlds could only send soldiers to defend the three Continents at most and did not dare to move any Cities over. After all, Great Qin had the strength to take back the Continents whenever it wanted to.
Great Qin had suffered massive losses from this battle; 700 million or so soldiers had died, and 30,000 of the beasts had perished.
The deaths of Great Qin's beasts was mostly due to the Devil Horn Empire's devil beast army. The three worlds had not been able to deal much damage to the beasts.
However, Great Qin had also performed quite well, killing 1.7 billion enemies and taking 1.5 billion captive, reducing the other side's strength by 3.2 billion. This once again weakened the three worlds' foundations, and they could no longer increase their armies by a large number.
If they suffered another blow like this, they would have almost no soldiers left and would eventually perish.
Great Qin had also killed 300,000 or so devil beasts and had sent 500,000 into the Four Soul Devil World, which was a big blow to the Devil Horn Empire.
After clearing out the battlefield, Zhao Fu returned to Great Qin to hold a celebratory banquet. However, Zhao Fu did not participate; after giving out some rewards, he left the Palace.
It would be New Years again soon, and when that time came, Great Qin would welcome its seventh year in the Heaven Awaken World. Time was running out, and Zhao Fu started to feel better about death. In his remaining time, he wanted to do more things.
After leaving the Palace, the first thing he needed to do was create new City Lord Seals. After losing 30,000 beasts, they had lost 30,000 City Lord Seals.
However, because Cities could create new City Lord Seals, he could make up for the 30,000 City Lord Seals that had been lost. However, this came at a price, which was an ocean of EXP. Fortunately, Great Qin did not lack EXP at all now.
After creating 30,000 new City Lord Seals, Zhao Fu fused them into the new beasts' bodies, increasing their total to 170,000. This was Great Qin's strongest force, and if he had enough of them, Great Qin would not have to fear even a Royal Kingdom.
Following this, Zhao Fu headed to the Four Soul Devil World to take a look at the devil beasts. He felt quite interested in this.
After all, the devil beasts had already been quite powerful and would become even more powerful after becoming Devils. If they could be used by Great Qin, their effects would be incredibly shocking. After all, if he could obtain 50,000 of them, perhaps they would be incredibly effective against the Devil Horn Empire.
As such, Zhao Fu immediately wanted to come and check on the Four Soul Devil World.
"Your Majesty, you've come!" Tamamo-no-Mae said flirtatiously as she paid her respects before going over to Zhao Fu and pressing her breasts against him.
Zhao Fu lightly laughed and asked, "Where are the devil beasts that became Devils? We want to take a look."
Momijigari gave a confident smile as she replied, "Your Majesty, we've gathered them together for you to look over; their strength definitely won't disappoint Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Zhao Fu's smile brightened and he nodded. Just as he was about to have Momijigari lead the way, gray dragons suddenly appeared on the surface of his body. A look of pain appeared on Zhao Fu's face as Emperor Killer once again flared up. Zhao Fu could only endure the pain and say, "We will be returning to the Palace for now; We will take a look some other day."
Tamamo-no-Mae knew what was happening, so she said happily yet worriedly, "There's no need for Your Majesty to return to the Palace, that's so troublesome; just stay here."
Before Zhao Fu could reply, Tamamo-no-Mae pressed her lips against Zhao Fu's.
Momijigari squatted down and disregarded whether Zhao Fu approved or not, and she started to serve him. Following this, the sound of bodies ramming together could be heard.
Following this, more Devils heard about this and excitedly joined in, causing the room to be filled with moans.
The room was filled with Devils breathing raggedly, and Zhao Fu lay on the green carpet as he bitterly laughed. Tamamo-no-Mae had a look of satisfaction as she lay on Zhao Fu's left shoulder.
Momijigari lay on Zhao Fu's right shoulder as she smiled and said, "Your Majesty, now that things have come to this, there's no need to think too much. Those women have been serving Your Majesty every day but still haven't carried your imperial seed; they're evidently not good enough. Your Majesty, I would like to bear your imperial seed."
Most of the higher-ups in Great Qin knew that Zhao Fu only had about a year to live, but he still did not have any heirs. This meant that the line of succession for Great Qin could be broken, so they would have to find the next ruler from the Ying family.
If they wanted to avoid this, they had to have Zhao Fu have heirs within that time in order to continue his line.
Zhao Fu was the core of the Great Qin Empire, so once he died, Great Qin would go through massive changes. No one knew what would happen.
Momijigari could not afford to miss this opportunity, so she wanted to do it with Zhao Fu. Only then would her future be secure; if she could bear Zhao Fu's imperial seed, she would become one of the most prestigious people in Great Qin.
Hearing her words, Zhao Fu sighed as he said, "If it was before We awakened Our King bloodline, perhaps it would be possible; but now We have a Sovereign bloodline, which makes conception incredibly difficult. Alright, take Us to see those devil beasts!"
Hearing Zhao Fu's words, Momijigari felt slightly disappointed. However, she then lightly laughed as she said, "Your Majesty, didn't you just see them? You were doing it with them just then! These three also used to be devil beasts."
This gave Zhao Fu a big fright; he had never thought that he would end up doing it with devil beasts. He looked at the three Devils currently serving him: one of them was incredibly enchanting and had a soft body, and it seemed to be a Snake Devil; one had black cat ears and was most likely a Cat Devil; and one had a pair of green wings and was most likely a Bird Devil. The three of them were all incredibly beautiful.
Now that things had come to this, Zhao Fu could not say much. Now that he was someone who was going to die soon, he did not mind it much.
Chapter 1186: Ruler of Great Qin
"Can all of these devil beasts turn into human form?" Zhao Fu enjoyed the service of the three Devils as he asked Momijigari curiously.
After all, it was quite difficult for devil beasts to take human form; it required extremely high cultivation and great power, or else they would need other methods such as medicinal pills.
Momijigari replied, "Not all of them; this requires great strength as well as a high-grade bloodline. Moreover, once they become human form, their strength will be many times greater."
Hearing this, Zhao Fu sensed the strength of the three Devils currently servicing him; they all had Stage 9 strength, which made him feel quite shocked. After all, this could rival the power of a City Lord with an old City Lord Seal.
If 500,000 devil beasts had this kind of strength, they would be equivalent to 500,000 City Lords with the old City Lord Seals. If Zhao Fu had this kind of power, he would be able to sweep through the surrounding ten or so worlds and Great Qin would become a Royal Kingdom and take revenge on the three factions.
Thinking about that, Zhao Fu felt quite excited, but he soon heard that only 5,000 to 6,000 of them had become humanoid Devils, causing him to feel disappointed.
However, now that they had obtained 5,000 to 6,000 Devils that rivalled Stage 9 experts, Great Qin was not in such a dire need of experts anymore, making up for one of its shortcomings.
What a pity that the Devil Horn Empire had not thrown more devil beasts at them! If Great Qin could find out how the Devil Horn Empire nurtured devil beasts, they could develop their own, allowing them to have a sufficient foundation.
A moan cut off Zhao Fu's thoughts; one of the enchanting women was now riding on him.
After all of this was over, Zhao Fu went to take a look at the Devils that had not turned into human form. These Devils were all stronger and bigger than they were before and looked more ferocious and savage. There were 500,000 of them and they could rival Great Qin's 100,000 beasts.
The Devil Horn Empire's devil beast army could allow Great Qin to become much stronger, so he started to somewhat look forward to the battle with the Devil Horn Empire.
A few days later, Great Qin started to be covered with lanterns as they started to celebrate New Years. The streets were filled with people, and there were all sorts of stands on the streets, creating a lively scene.
Just like last year, Zhao Fu stood on a tall building and looked at the splendor and liveliness of Great Qin. Little Nine ran up holding Little Rose's hand, asking Zhao Fu to play with them. Zhao Fu smiled as he picked them up and went down.
The short period of happiness allowed Zhao Fu to temporarily forget about his troubles. However, a few days later, Zhao Fu would have to deal with a big matter, which was the next ruler of Great Qin.
Zhao Fu looked at Li Si and said, "Have you collected information on all of the bloodlines of the Ying family? Are there any particularly exceptional people?"
Because Zhao Fu did not have any descendants, he could only pick from the Ying family. The Ying family was the imperial family of Great Qin; thus, they had the qualifications to be the next ruler of Great Qin.
Li Si heavily sighed. Even though the Ying family had a few outstanding people, how could they compare to Zhao Fu? It was like comparing the sun to a speck of sand; no one in Great Qin had the qualifications to replace Zhao Fu.
"Your Majesty, if it was possible, this Minister would be willing to die for you. You're currently in your prime and should not die so early like this. You must bring Great Qin to glory."
Zhao Fu smiled in gratitude and said, "This is how things are; there's nothing we can do."
Bai Qi looked quite pained and uncomfortable as he stood there, unable to say anything.
Zhao Fu smiled as he looked at these two subordinates next to him. Li Si and Bai Qi had been with him since the very beginning, and Zhao Fu had complete faith in them, so he said, "We will be leaving Great Qin to you two. We hope that you won't let Us down."
Li Si and Bai Qi immediately knelt and said in grief, "We are willing to defend Great Qin to the death!"
Zhao Fu lightly nodded as he replied, "Bring the suitable to Us! And remember to keep this matter a secret, or it will cause much panic."
Zhao Fu was not only the ruler of Great Qin but also the core of Great Qin and its spiritual leader. News of Zhao Fu's impending death would have massive effects on the people.
Li Si nodded and went out.
Following this, a few members of the Ying family received summons to go to the Great Qin Palace, and they excitedly came over. They had heard that Great Qin's Emperor would be dying soon and that the new Emperor would be picked among them.
Thinking about how they would stand at the peak of Great Qin and receive gazes of worship from billions of subjects, as well as have those grand Ministers and Generals prostrate themselves at their feet, they could not help but feel incredibly excited.
Even though this matter was simply too exciting for them, they quelled their emotions because Great Qin's Emperor had not yet died and he would be picking his successor. If they acted too shallowly, they would not be picked.
"We greet Your Majesty! Long live His Majesty! Long live His Majesty!"
Six white-clothed young men with extraordinary bearings respectfully knelt on the ground, lowering their heads as they greeted Zhao Fu on his throne.
Zhao Fu sighed. Was he really going to pick the next ruler of Great Qin from these six people kneeling in front of him?
Zhao Fu was not very satisfied with these six people; perhaps it was because they were so willing to kneel. Moreover, even though their aptitude was quite good, they could not compare to the geniuses outside; they were simply too ordinary.
However, Zhao Fu had no other choice; he did not have any descendants, so he could only choose from among the Ying family. These six young men were the most outstanding people form the Ying family, so they were Zhao Fu's only options. One of them would become the next ruler of Great Qin.
"I'll test them first, maybe they'll surprise me," Zhao Fu thought to himself.
Li Si also looked quite worried; he was not satisfied with these six people either, so Zhao Fu definitely would not be happy with them. However, they were already the most outstanding people, and Great Qin had no other options.
Bai Qi was silent but he looked slightly worried; if one of these people became the next ruler of Great Qin, Great Qin's strength would definitely decline, and it would be difficult for Great Qin to grow.
Zhao Fu did not have any confidence in any of these six people to expand Great Qin and guard Great Qin's foundation.
"You may leave!" Zhao Fu said, feeling a headache coming on.
Hearing this, the six of them looked somewhat disappointed because they could tell that Zhao Fu was not very pleased with them. However, they were not too downcast because Great Qin could only pick from among them, so they still had a chance of becoming the next Emperor.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Wu is trying to force her way in to see you," a soldier quickly reported.
Zhao Fu felt quite surprised and allowed Wu Qingniang in. Wu Qingniang's eyes were red and tears could be seen within them. Seeing this, Zhao Fu had everyone else leave.
