Demon Suppression Division Headquarters, top level, Heart Inquiry Pavilion.
There are no piles of files here, nor are there any dignified furnishings.
Inside the pavilion, there were only the remains of a game of chess, a furnace of sandalwood that was about to burn out, and a small rockery from which the sound of gurgling water constantly came from.
An old man wearing a purple python robe, with a pale face, slightly frosted temples, but deep eyes that seemed to contain the entire Star Sea, was holding a pair of simple jade scissors, meticulously pruning an unknown bonsai.
Every movement he made was slow and focused, as if what he was pruning was not the branches and leaves, but the cause and effect and laws of heaven and earth.
He is the supreme leader of Demon Suppression Division, with power over both the government and the public, and his cultivation is unfathomable. He is known as the commander-in-chief of the Great Xia Dynasty "Sea-Stabilizing Divine Needle".
Wei Zheng.
At this moment, Heart Inquiry Pavilion's door was violently pushed open with a "bang", destroying the tranquility here.
The deputy commander Li Tiancheng rushed in with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes. His face was full of panic and confusion, and he had long lost the calmness and majesty of the past.
"Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief! Something big has happened!!"
Wei Zheng's movements did not pause at all.
Still looking at the bonsai in front of him intently, he cut off the last extra branch with a "click" sound.
Then he gently put the jade scissors aside and wiped his hands slowly with a piece of silk, as if he didn't hear the loud siren and the roar of Li Tiancheng at all.
"Your heart is confused."
He slowly turned around and looked at Li Tiancheng with his calm eyes. His voice was calm, but it had a calming power.
"Tell me, why are you so alarmed?"
"Demon Suppression Tower! It's Demon Suppression Tower!"
Li Tiancheng breathed heavily and told what happened incoherently as fast as possible.
From Qin Tian escorting "Sword Ghost" into the tower, to the first floor being bloodbathed, to just now, the entire fourth floor was wiped out in just half a day!
In the study room, the top elders of Demon Suppression Division who came over after hearing the news all changed their expressions.
"Absurd!"
A red-faced elder with a fiery temper slammed the table so hard that the tea cup buzzed.
"Mortality Transformation Grand Formation is an ancient formation with independent laws. Even if a strong Martial Apex Realm enters, he will be suppressed into a mortal! How can a mere 'Sword Ghost' go on a killing spree in the tower?!"
"There must be something fishy about this matter! I am more inclined to think that there is something wrong with the formation in the tower."
Another Demon Suppression Division elder calmly analyzed, "Or, there is an external enemy using a method unknown to us, and the inside should be coordinated with the outside."
Li Tiancheng said miserably, "The formation is intact! We have repeatedly checked and there is no problem with the operation of Mortality Transformation Grand Formation! The problem is... that monster, his body, seems to be completely unaffected by the formation! He... he is using pure physical power that exceeds the limit of our understanding to slaughter those prisoners whose cultivation has been suppressed!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire Heart Inquiry Pavilion fell into deathly silence.
A monster unaffected by "Mortality Transformation Grand Formation"?
Everyone here knows what this means.
This means that Demon Suppression Tower, known as the most indestructible cage, is useless to him.
Wei Zheng Ancient Well's waveless face finally revealed a look of interest.
He slowly walked to the chessboard, picked up a black stone, and said calmly, "Transfer all the information on 'Sword Ghost' immediately! I want to know everything about him, from birth to now."
At this moment, a Demon Slayer Envoy rushed in with a pale face. His body was shaking violently because of fear, and his voice was trembling:
"Report! Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief! I just received the news... The fifth-level monitoring array... the light... all the light spots went out!!"
"What?!"
The red-faced elder struck up the case again. This time, his face was no longer filled with anger, but with unbelievable shock.
"The people imprisoned on the fifth floor are all notorious elders of the Demon Sect! There are many physically powerful people among them! How is it possible..."
Before he finished speaking, another Demon Slayer Envoy rolled in and crawled in, as if he had seen a ghost, and screamed:
"Your Majesty, the Commander-in-Chief!! The sixth floor... is also... gone!! That monster... he... he is standing at the door to the seventh floor!!!"
Boom!!!
This news, like a Nine Heavens thunder, exploded in everyone's mind!
If the first five floors were cleared, it would only shock and trouble them.
Then the sixth floor was breached, which was enough to make them feel the fear in their bones!
Because the strength of the prisoners held on the sixth floor has undergone a qualitative change!
They are all Martial Grandmaster Realm peak experts who have blazed their own path in martial arts, and are true giants.
Even if his cultivation is suppressed, his physical strength, martial arts instincts, and tenacity of will are far from comparable to those of the prisoners on the lower floors!
But even such a group of monsters were still slaughtered by that "Sword Ghost" in such a short period of time!
"The seventh floor..."
Wei Zheng, who had been silent all this time, finally slowly uttered these three words.
The pupils shrank violently for the first time, as if stars were rising and dying in them.
The sunspot in his hand turned into powder silently.
Demon Suppression Tower, on the first to third floors, ordinary and extremely evil people are imprisoned.
On the fourth to sixth floors, the strong men of the major demon sects and evil sects are imprisoned.
Starting from the seventh floor, those imprisoned are no longer just "prisoners".
Every existence there is enough to shake the foundation of the country!
There are princes who are trying to usurp the throne, there are giants who are obsessed with it, there are gods of war from enemy countries, and even...
There were also the once turbulent Great Xia Dynasty 8 and Ninth Order great demons...
If that monster is allowed to rush into the seventh floor, whether it is to fight with those existences or to release them...
The consequences are unimaginable!
The entire Heart Inquiry Pavilion atmosphere was solemn to the extreme.
"Can't wait any longer!"
Li Tiancheng roared, "Sir, please take action immediately!"
Wei Zheng slowly shook his head. He stretched out his hand again, picked up a white piece, and looked deeply at the chessboard in front of him.
It seems that through these crisscrossing lines, I can see the scene inside Demon Suppression Tower.
"An interesting twist... a chess piece that shouldn't be on the chessboard has the power to sweep the chessboard."
"Interesting."
Under the anxious gazes of everyone, he gently placed the white piece in his hand on the Tianyuan position on the chessboard.
Snap!
The sound of the chess pieces falling was clear and sweet, but it seemed to carry a kind of supreme majesty Words Become Law.
"Pass this order."
Wei Zheng stood up suddenly, and at that moment, his seemingly clear body erupted with a terrifying momentum that seemed to be able to collapse the entire sky!
The entire space of the Heart Inquiry Pavilion is frozen!
"Just wait and see what happens and let nature take its course."
