Fox Demon: Heaven rewards diligence; I will eventually achieve divine mastery of martial arts.

One, two, three.

The manipulated demons were like tireless robots, their aura growing stronger as they absorbed more and more demonic power.

Lin Yu watched all of this with great interest, without the slightest pity in his eyes.

Those who are imprisoned are basically the ones who have committed numerous evils.

They are not worthy of any sympathy.

"However, the speed is still a bit too slow. It would be better to speed it up."

Lin Yu said casually, and then pointed with his finger again.

The golden light flashed again, and another demon was controlled by Jin Chenxi. A surge of emotional power emanated from the demon from before.

Inside the prison, the entity that devoured demonic power suddenly increased from one to two.

As he watched one demon after another being devoured, Lin Yu's face showed a deep sense of anticipation.

A new idea quietly formed in my mind.

This speed is still too slow. Why doesn't he try to treat the entire southern country as his breeding farm?

From towns to county towns, and then to villages.

He arranged for each of them to be controlled by a demon clan member, who would absorb a portion of the demonic power cultivated by the demon clan members below each day.

This way, we won't exhaust the resources, nor will it cause too much resentment.

Once the demonic power has accumulated to a certain level, it will be passed up layer by layer.

All I need to do in the end is to find the guy who will become the Great Demon King.

The demon cores produced in this way may not be of high quality, but he doesn't care about just having enough.

As long as the cultivation speed can be kept at an enhanced state, that's fine.

[You have diligently practiced the Nine Revolutions Body Tempering Technique and gained some insights; your proficiency has increased by 36!]

[You have diligently practiced the Crystal Visualization Technique and gained some insight; your proficiency has increased by 38!]

[You have diligently practiced the Ten Perfections Martial Arts and gained some insights; your proficiency has increased by 37!]

Taking a moment to glance at my current system panel.

Under the influence of the peaches of immortality and the demon king's core.

Lin Yu's cultivation speed has now increased more than fourfold.

This speed is unprecedented in history.

Unfortunately, there weren't many peaches available, and once they were used up, they were gone.

Moreover, given the current relationship with Aolai Kingdom, it's practically impossible to obtain it.

Otherwise, if we could maintain this speed indefinitely.

One year.

Lin Yu could break through in even a shorter time.

Then we can just flip the table, point our fingers at the Third Young Master of Aolai Kingdom, and tell him.

I'm done playing!

I'll kill you today.

Without the effects of the peaches of immortality, using only the demon core would only result in a maximum increase of three times, at most.

'We can't neglect the supply of medicinal pills either; we should try to increase it as much as possible.'

'We should use Huan Du Qingtian's demon core as soon as possible, while there are still some peaches left.'

Just as Lin Yu was pondering this, a strong fluctuation suddenly came from the prison.

Lin Yu looked up and saw that the demon he had chosen, who already possessed the strength of a peak Lesser Demon King, had finally broken through after absorbing the medicinal power of nearly twenty Lesser Demon Kings!

Now, his aura is undergoing a transformation. Once he completes the transformation, he will become a true Great Demon King level powerhouse.

The other demon race is already at a similar level.

"It wasn't a waste of my time last night; it didn't disappoint."

Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction; it proved that his plan was feasible.

Therefore, it seems that a plan targeting the southern region can be started.

There are plenty of ready-made candidates right in front of us.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 169 Phoenix Perches Injured, Proposal for a Grand Wedding

Once he had an idea in mind, Lin Yu naturally put it into action immediately.

He considers himself to be quite good at taking action.

After both of the Lesser Demon Kings broke through to become Greater Demon Kings and contributed two steaming hot demon cores to Lin Yu.

Before the emotional energy dissipated, Lin Yu directly used Jin Chenxi's power to control all of these people.

Aside from those who were swallowed up, there were still about two hundred people left.

This quantity is still a bit small for such a vast southern country.

Lin Yu thought about it for a while, then went back to Tushan and then to Beishan.

Anyway, with the Thousand-Mile Pursuit Talisman, things are very convenient. Even if he goes to a remote place like Beishan, distance is no longer of much significance given his strength.

From these two places, Lin Yu recruited a lot of prisoners and, after converting them all, took them all to the Southern Kingdom.

The southern region is now almost a no-man's-land.

The Southern Kingdom royal family is gone, as are the seventy-two cave masters.

The situation is basically similar to that of Beishan.

No one is willing to submit to anyone else, and no one listens to anyone else.

Of course, no one is convinced of this, and no one listens to this, including Lin Yu.

Facing this being who had slaughtered several of their cities, killed all their experts, and even Huan Du Qingtian had not escaped unscathed.

The demons of the Southern Kingdom harbored a deep psychological shadow over Lin Yu.

Lin Yu killed many members of the Dao Alliance, and even more demons from the Southern Kingdom.

The sheer number of people slaughtered in that city was more than Dongfang Guyue had killed in his entire life.

With the coordination and assistance of the Wu Dynasty, the hundreds of people controlled by Lin Yu were quickly and successfully placed throughout the Southern Kingdom.

Wherever there are people, Lin Yu has arranged for them to be there.

There is only one purpose: to hand over demonic power once a day.

Anyone who disobeys will be killed.

If any place kills the puppet sent there, then slaughter the entire town or village.

Lin Yu has never been polite to the demons of the Southern Kingdom.

Just treat them like livestock.

Just like the Demon-Controlling Kingdom back then.

Compared to the Demon-Controlling Kingdom, the Southern Kingdom, under Lin Yu's rule, will never be able to turn the tide.

After finishing his arrangements in the Southern Kingdom, Lin Yu also took the opportunity to visit Dongfang Guyue.

The father and daughter are still within the territory of the Wu Dynasty, leisurely making their way to the Southern Kingdom, and it's unclear how long it will take.

After exchanging pleasantries with them for a while, Lin Yu didn't linger and set off directly back to Tushan.

Besides Tu Shan Honghong and the others, there was still a Six-Eared Macaque waiting for him here.

Lin Yu wasn't planning to disappear from her sight for too long.

Otherwise, how could they possibly pass on the information about their "laxity"?

Upon returning to Tushan, Lin Yu planned to visit Cui Yuling to see if she could find a way to utilize the resources of the Wu Dynasty, Tushan, and the Southern Kingdom.

A new elixir has been developed.

If we really want to figure it out, the peaches might also be able to be utilized, taking advantage of the different reactions between the medicines to maximize their effects.

If he only had the demon core as an aid, this level of improvement wouldn't be enough to meet his needs.

However, just as they returned to the palace, Tu Shan Hong Hong came looking for them.

"Lin Yu".

"what happened?"

Just as he was about to make a joke, he noticed that Tu Shan Hong Hong's expression was somewhat serious, so Lin Yu suppressed his smile and asked seriously.

"Feng Qi is back, but she's injured."
