Chapter 486 Everyone's waiting for this old man to ascend to heaven.
Once everyone had arrived, the martial artist who had been ringing the bell in town recited the script that Lin Feng had taught them.
The delivery of the speech was somewhat stiff and lacked emotion. When Zhou Haitao and Lin Hu arrive, they should give these people a proper training.
Lin Feng's spirit entered this person's body and began to bestow empowerments upon the people in batches.
After receiving the empowerment, the elderly became healthier, more energetic, and walked much faster.
After being initiated, the young man learned many boxing techniques and acquired a certain level of martial arts skills.
Women and children who receive the empowerment experience an improvement in their physical condition.
The people's resentment towards the Demon God's Temple vanished instantly, and they all expressed their gratitude to the Demon God.
Lin Feng selected some talented individuals from among them, intending to focus on cultivating them.
......
By evening, the two hundred disciples had returned to the Demon Guild Hall.
Lin Feng encouraged them, telling them to go back and get some rest, as tomorrow's tasks would be even more demanding.
He also indicated that the task was completed well, and there would be another opportunity for initiation in the future.
Early the next morning, Lin Feng summoned Zhang Xiaoyu to gather all 20,000 of his men.
Lin Feng instructed the two hundred people who went out yesterday to train the more than 20,000 people. After the training was completed...
These 20,000 people were skeptical, unsure whether what they were saying was true or false.
Lin Feng directly bestowed a blessing upon these 20,000 people.
This initiation also uncovered many spies, and the spiritual imprint planted within them turned the group against them.
The 20,000 people immediately submitted, as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and went out to help Lin Feng pull people to the Demon God Temple.
This time, Lin Feng sent a group of elites to the smaller sects within the Blood Demon Sect's territory to directly recruit them into the Demon God Palace.
The collective outing of 20,000 martial artists caused quite a stir.
After all, all the major sects have branches near the Blood Demon Sect.
Upon investigation, the various factions discovered that these people were actually helping the Demon God Temple find supporters.
This Demon God Temple doesn't seem like a sect; it's more like a cult.
They definitely couldn't find out about Lin Feng's ability to receive empowerment, because all those who receive empowerment keep it strictly confidential.
Those who received the initiation became Lin Feng's loyal subordinates, and naturally, they were able to keep their mouths shut.
The first sect to take action regarding the Demon God Temple was not any other sect, but the Blood Demon Sect.
The Blood Demon Sect's Grand Elder, Blood Sea Demon Lord, led seven or eight elders to find the Blood Demon Ancestor.
The Blood Demon Ancestor received the elders in the main hall.
The Blood Sea Demon Lord sat among the elders and said loudly, "Sect Master, it is said that our Blood Demon Sect is helping some Demon God Palace to recruit members on a large scale. Is this true?"
The Blood Demon Ancestor glanced at him sideways, "Are you questioning me?"
The Blood Demon Ancestor's words made the atmosphere in the hall tense.
The Blood Sea Demon Lord clenched his fists and remained silent.
The other elders spoke up to ease the tension.
"Sect Master, please calm down. The Grand Elder is not questioning us."
"The Grand Elder was just exaggerating."
"Master, calm down!"
The Blood Demon Ancestor looked at the Grand Elder and said, "Shut up, all of you. I'm asking him, not you."
The Blood Demon Ancestor exuded an aura of dominance, completely unlike his amiable demeanor when speaking to Lin Feng.
The First Elder, Blood Sea Demon Lord, took a deep breath and said, "It was my recklessness. I was not questioning anyone, but simply came to understand the situation."
The Blood Sea Demon Lord's words were a tacit admission of weakness.
The Blood Demon Ancestor's gaze swept over the group of elders.
"Let's be frank, everyone should know that I'm not far from my end."
One of the purposes of my treasure appreciation event is to exchange for some treasures that can prolong life.
When I am gone, the Holy Son will succeed me.
The Holy Son's foundation is still shallow, and another bloody storm is inevitable.
At that time, the people of the world will suffer.
I happen to have a junior colleague who wants to establish a loose organization to protect the people.
This is what you call the Demon God Temple.
I will naturally give my full support.
Our Blood Demon Sect will also give our full support.
Anyone who dares to tamper with this matter, I'll kill them!
When the Blood Demon Ancestor uttered his last words, they were filled with murderous intent.
This silenced all the elders.
Just as the First Elder, Blood Sea Demon Lord, was about to say something, Blood Demon Ancestor waved his hand, "I'm tired, you can all go back."
Blood Sea Demon Lord's chest heaved, but he still didn't dare to say anything and left with the other elders.
The Blood Sea Demon Lord was furious. After returning to his residence, he destroyed his own house.
"That old codger, he's almost dead and he's still putting on such a show. What does he take us for?"
The Third Elder said, "Brother, calm down. It's not worth getting so angry over someone who's about to die."
"Yes, brother, calm down. That old man has always been autocratic."
The Fifth Elder also expressed his indignation, saying, "That old bastard is like he's missing a screw in his head, always doing those thankless tasks."
We've mentioned it to him countless times: we need to increase the poll tax and land tax on the people to raise the sect's silver income so that we can support more martial artists.
But the old man just wouldn't agree.
They even took the lead in reducing taxes, and other sects followed suit, resulting in a sharp decline in the income of all major sects.
He even created these disciple selection and promotion rules, which prevented my distant relatives from entering the sect.
An elder chimed in, “Yes, with the sect leader doing this, those who farm, hunt, and sell groceries have actually benefited.”
They could both earn money and have a path to advancement.
The Fifth Elder strongly agreed, “That’s right, this will harm our interests while benefiting those peasants.”
What's the use of being so kind to those peasants? They should be trampled into the mud.
Fifth Brother is absolutely right.
The Demonic Sect has long suffered under the wrath of its Blood Demon Ancestor.
Everyone's waiting for this old man to pass away.
He also wants to trade for a treasure that prolongs life, but who would trade with him?
He's dreaming.
The Great Elder, Blood Sea Demon Lord, looked at his brothers.
These guys didn't dare utter a single word in front of the Blood Demon Ancestor, but once they left him, they all perked up.
The Blood Sea Demon Lord said, "Tell me, why did the Sect Master order the construction of the Demon God Temple?"
"Didn't the sect leader say it was to protect the people?"
"You believe such a thing? That old bastard can't say anything nice."
"Then tell me, why is that?"
I heard that the Demon God Temple only recruits ordinary people and small, insignificant gangs; it can't possibly form a fighting force in a short time.
The Third Elder stroked his beard and said, "I heard that those who help the Demon God Temple recruit members are all subordinates of the Holy Son."
Is that old man trying to pave the way for the Holy Son's succession?
"Didn't I say that?
The Demon God Temple can't possibly muster any fighting power in a short time, so how can it pave the way for the Holy Son?
The Blood Sea Demon Lord said, "It doesn't matter if you can't figure it out."
We're determined to ruin whatever the old man wants to do.
The old man has been in the position of sect leader for so long, and now that he's about to die, he wants to pass the position on to his disciple. What a ridiculous idea!
It's time for us brothers to sit here.
"Brother, how can we sabotage this?"
The sect leader has already made his statement; who dares to hinder the expansion of the Demon God Temple?
The Blood Sea Demon Lord stood up and looked at the colorful world below the mountain, saying, "The root of this matter lies with the Holy Son."
As long as the Holy Son is destroyed, everything the old man does will be in vain.
My people discovered that the Holy Son killed the Little Poison Demon.
Spread this message out, let the Poison Demon Shangguan Qingcang fight the Holy Son, and hopefully kill him.
You should also put in some effort to contact available people from other sects.
"Let them do their best to stop the expansion of the Demon Temple."
"Okay, we'll get on it right away."
