Demon Invasion

Du Zian was slightly taken aback, and a smile appeared on his face.

"There's nothing to hide. We just encountered a powerful Demon. You'll find out as your strength grows!"

"But since you've asked, I'll reveal some truths that the outside world doesn't know!"

His words drew the attention of many people.

The truth unknown to the outside world!?

What truths remain in this world?

Du Zian took a deep breath and slowly said, "I believe you all know that there are Demon in this world!"

"They are extremely powerful creatures; powerful Demon can even destroy a country!"

"But what you don't know is that we... have never defeated the Demon!"

As soon as he finished speaking, many people present showed a noticeable change in expression.

Never defeated the Demon!?

The library contains many historical records, all of which clearly state that humanity defeated the Demon and sealed them away.

Is this part of history fake?

Noticing their expressions, Du Zian continued, "Several hundred years ago, a great war broke out between humans and Demon. This battle did indeed inflict heavy losses on the Demon, but many powerful humans also perished!"

"Moreover, Demon are extremely special and very difficult to kill directly!"

"In that battle, many Demon appeared to be killed, but in reality, they are still alive. They just need time to recover, which is why they haven't attacked our human race!"

"That battle never ended from beginning to end."

"Many powerful humans are also cultivating diligently, hoping to be able to fight Demon in the near future!"

"Besides Demon, there are also Foreign Races. Although some Foreign Races have a good relationship with our human race and are our friends, there are also some powerful Foreign Races that are always secretly watching us. If our human race is not strong enough, they will invade us!"

At this point, Du Zian took out a set of equipment from his Space Bracelet.

It was a projector, and under Du Zian's operation, some images appeared.

These scenes are 3D, as if they were actually happening right in front of you.

"These are scenes from when we fought against the Demon back then. You can take a look!"

A series of images then appeared.

All that could be seen were tens of thousands of Demon pouring out of the Space Rift like locusts.

They were like demons, and began to slaughter humans as soon as they arrived.

Countless humans died at their hands.

A small town was reduced to ruins in just over ten minutes.

Countless cries of agony followed.

Each of them is an executioner, killing humans in extremely cruel ways.

There are also Demon who enjoy tormenting humans, playing with them until they are on the verge of death before eating them.

These scenes are more gory and more emotionally impactful than those in horror movies.

Lin Mu's expression was extremely calm. He seemed to have received some kind of training and had a sense of commonplace familiarity with the scene before him.

But he was still slightly moved.

He could realize how terrifying Demon were.

It also makes one realize how cruel Demon can be.

If Demon were to attack humanity again, countless people would die at their hands.

Is it possible that he could become food for Demon?

The others did not have the same mental fortitude as Lin Mu, and their eyes showed varying degrees of fear.

Some people with weaker mental fortitude even turned their heads away, unable to look.

Du Zian didn't say anything. He then operated the projector again, and the image changed accordingly.

All that could be seen was a spatial rift beside a battle between hundreds of human martial artists and a Demon.

Many martial artists died at the hands of Demon.

After being severely injured by the human warriors, the Demon fled into the spatial rift and could not be tracked down.

"In a way, we are no match for Demon, because Demon are cunning and have special abilities. Fighting them is extremely dangerous. Even if we severely injure them, it is difficult to keep them alive!" Du Zian said.

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Doesn't that mean that the human race is very likely to lose to the Demon in the future?"

"That possibility cannot be ruled out! And to change this outcome, we must become powerful enough!" Du Zian said.

He turned off the projector.

He knew that these people were just students, and today's events had already had a great impact on them.

There's no need to continue.

However, he also knew that these things were inevitable.

They may not be experiencing it now, but they will be in the future.

"Rest for an hour, then start cultivating!" Du Zian.

The students present nodded slightly.

Lin Mu sat there, processing everything.

He knew very well that Du Zian's goal was to put pressure on them.

However, this also proves that the world is more dangerous than we imagine.

With a light breath, Lin Mu closed his eyes and once again entered into a state of enlightenment regarding Blade Technique.

The other trainees were still in shock.

Many of them are like flowers in a greenhouse; they've never seen anything like this before.

Some people were even sitting on the ground, panting heavily.

It is obviously difficult to digest.

An hour later, more than ten mentors came to them. Upon seeing their appearance, these mentors frowned slightly.

"Stand up, all of you! Are you all so scared by just some images?" a tall, Middle-aged Man shouted.

Many people stood up.

"We will provide you with guidance in the coming days. Now that you're here, you must put in your best effort!"

"Sacred Origin Martial School does not raise useless people!" the middle-aged man said.

Everyone present nodded slightly, their eyes all fixed on the middle-aged man.

"You will be divided into groups of ten, and each of you will be separated. We will devise a training plan for you based on your individual circumstances!"

The middle-aged man continued.

The crowd dispersed, while Lin Mu and the others stood together, quickly forming a group of ten.

A mentor also walked over at that moment.

"My name is Peng Xueyao, and I will be guiding your cultivation over the next few days!"

"Hello, mentor!"

"Hello, mentor!"

The crowd shouted.

"Tell me your target first." Peng Xueyao's eyes fell on Lin Mu.

He was the champion of this year's Martial Arts Exam, so naturally many people know him.

"Let's start with you!"

"I want to reach the Third Order, and at the same time improve my Movement Technique techniques and Blade Technique to a higher level!" Lin Mu said.

Peng Xueyao nodded slightly, then looked at the others. "What about you guys?"

"I want to advance to the Second Order!"

"I want to master the Shadowless Kick!"

"My Fist Technique skills are lacking; I want to improve them!"

"..."

After listening to their ideas, Peng Xueyao made a note of them in her notebook.

"Since that's the case, let's begin! We'll start with you. Your current Blood Qi Value is around 12. It will take at least half a year to break through to the Third Order. So in the next few days, I will devise a plan for you to increase your Blood Qi Value by about 0.5 as much as possible!" Peng Xueyao looked at Lin Mu and said slowly.

Lin Mu nodded. He knew that cultivation was not easy, and it would become increasingly difficult as one progressed.

Increasing one's Blood Qi Value by 0.5 in just a few days is already an extremely good thing.
