The Artifact Forger from the Beginning of Collapse

"Inu-Inuyasha."

“Very well, Inuyasha. Can I ask you for a favor? Could you have the demons who have gathered nearby collect any usable materials from their corpses?” Chen Li made a request.

"Y-yes." Inuyasha nodded repeatedly.

Inuyasha didn't want to agree to Chen Li's request either. All Inuyasha wanted now was to run away as quickly as possible, to get far away from this area, but...

Inuyasha looked around and saw rivers of blood everywhere he looked.

Those monsters who used to mock me for being a half-demon are all dead now.

The monsters that survived the massive army of demons crouched in place, trembling with fear.

They didn't even have the courage to run away.

"Very good, thank you very much. If any demon bullies you in the future, you can come to me and I can talk to him." Chen Li patted Inuyasha on the shoulder, then turned and left.

"..." Inuyasha turned his head to look around. The demons who were greedy for the Shikon Jewel and had to gather near Chen Li because of the effect of [Soul Break] (Miracle Card) 1 exchanged glances and then scattered.

Of course, it wasn't about running away, but about collecting materials.

LOL, who would dare to run away?

Do you dare? Inuyasha certainly wouldn't.

Chapter 28 Miracle Card - [A Single Arrow That Once Slaughtered a Million Demons]!

"Why aren't you saying anything? Don't worry, you're not unemployed yet." Chen Li walked up to Kikyo and poked her.

"Ah, you're back?" Kikyo, who had been in a daze, looked at Chen Li with a complicated expression after she came to her senses.

"Did you hear me? Just now, because of the destruction of the Shikon Jewel, all the yokai who coveted it came here. But there are also some bad yokai who weren't greedy for the Shikon Jewel or who didn't have time to get here. And these yokai who aren't bad now, but whose future is uncertain." Chen Li pointed to the group of yokai searching for usable items and said to Kikyo.

Alicia, on the other hand, had already returned on her own because the waiting time was too tedious.

“I heard you. It is our responsibility as exorcists to prevent and control monsters.” Kikyo nodded.

Kikyo's feelings are extremely complicated right now.

The massacre lasted only three hours.

It wasn't because Chen Li could only last three hours, but because everyone who was supposed to be killed had been killed, and there was no energy left to support them, so the reckoning had to end.

As for those monsters who didn't make it to their deaths, they either lived in remote areas or traveled too slowly.

In the later stages, even powerful demons could not withstand a hail of arrows for more than 5 seconds.

"Rivers of blood" is the most accurate description of this tragedy.

Kikyo never expected that she would issue a request to forge a weapon simply because she was afraid that the Shikon Jewel would be stolen by a demon. As a result, the other party came to this world and slaughtered most of the demons in the entire Sengoku period.

It's so peaceful!

If it weren't for the effect of "severing karma," the arrows would have burned everything around the monster after killing it, making this place not just a river of blood, but a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

However, Kikyo is not worried that any monsters will be born from the resentment in this blood-soaked land, because the souls of monsters have long been burned away, there are no conditions for them to form, and the power in the blood has also been completely destroyed.

"Can I use this bow for a while?" Chen Li took out the Peace Longbow.

"It's yours," Kikyo said slowly.

"Ugh?"

"I no longer need this bow," Kikyo said, shaking her head.

Within the protective barrier of miracles, Kikyo witnessed countless powerful demons perish under the longbow. After confirming the longbow's power, Kikyo also realized a problem.

Firstly, Chen Li had already killed most of the demons, and he could handle the remaining demons with the Zishan Spirit Bow, so he didn't need this bow.

Secondly, once monsters cease to be a threat to humanity, humans might unleash an even greater bloodbath because of this longbow.

Just because only kind people can use it doesn't mean that kind people won't be deceived and use it for killing.

This bow will be a greater scourge than the Shikon Jewel.

Most importantly, Kikyo couldn't even imagine what she could offer as forging fees.

"You don't regret it?"

"No regrets," Kikyo nodded.

"Emmm..." Chen Li pondered.

However, the correct way to work with a master craftsman is to hand the bow over to the right person so that it can work miracles.

However, entrusting someone doesn't necessarily mean you have to do it.

Moreover, the miracles that Kikyo might create have already been created by Chen Li. Giving this bow to Kikyo would probably not yield many crystals for Chen Li.

The commission is objective, and the rewards it offers are what you would normally receive.

But the current situation is clearly not normal.

As for the crystal... Chen Li has already made a fortune this time!!!

On his first Miracle Check-in, Chen Li directly received 30 Crystals, a Miracle Card, and 500 Star Stones.

For his second Miracle Check-in, Chen Li also received 30 Crystals and a Miracle Card.

[One Arrow Once Slaughtered a Million Demons] (Miracle Card): No one can help but admire the feat of wiping out 80% of the demons in Yingzhou within 3 hours. And that was the limit of their speed of arrival, not the limit of your slaughter speed.

Effect 1: Any demons, monsters, evil spirits, or villains will first face a shock when they encounter you. Those with weak wills will be completely unable to muster the courage to fight you. This effect will increase as you slaughter more demons, monsters, evil spirits, and villains.

Effect 2: You will learn any skill related to "arrows" and ranged attacks with lightning speed, and imbue ranged weapons with the "Killing Aura" effect. This effect will increase as you slaughter more demons, monsters, and evil people.

Effect 3: Can be used to forge rare items.

The 60 crystals and two miracle cards are already worth the price, plus 500 star stones.

"How about we make a deal?" Chen Li suddenly asked Kikyo.

"What deal?"

"Nominally, you still hold this Peace Longbow. And you're the one to punish evil and uphold justice. You can't deny that using this bow to exorcise demons is faster, right?"

"Mm." Kikyo nodded.

“However, whenever I need this bow, I will immediately summon it into my hands and use it in battle. How about that?” Chen Li asked.

“That… is fine. But if this bow suddenly disappears during battle, it might affect me. Or I could carry two bows.” Kikyo said after considering for a moment.

"You've thought of everything so thoroughly, it makes me a little embarrassed. Don't worry, this bow can be held by two people at the same time," Chen Li said.

Summoning the bow back into Chen Li's hands is a function of the Myriad Knowledge Library, and making it appear simultaneously is also a function of the Myriad Knowledge Library.

Its name is "Misaligned Time," and only Chen Li can use this function.

The advantage is that it can prevent the person holding the rare item from suddenly losing it, which could lead to a disaster.

The downside is that it consumes Star Stones, one every 10 minutes.

However, time can be accumulated, which means that no matter how many times you summon, as long as the time does not exceed 10 minutes, you only need to pay one star stone.

"Then there's no problem."

"Oh, by the way, let's add each other as friends. If you ever need to forge any rare items in the future, you can always ask me for help. But in return, if I encounter danger and need to summon your projection, I hope you won't hesitate to help me," Chen Li said.

This was also one of Chen Li's goals.

Placing the Peace Longbow with Kikyo allows her to collect evil spirits while exorcising demons, and also allows Kikyo, who possesses this wondrous object, to form a friendship with you (a henchman contract).

Under normal circumstances, Chen Li wouldn't have time to exorcise demons.

Moreover, when it comes to a critical moment, a single Peace Longbow can be incredibly effective at killing many enemies, but how can two Peace Longbows be used together to achieve the same efficiency?

"No problem. And thank you for everything you've done for the people of this world," Kikyo said, her heart heavy with emotion.

For Kikyo, Chen Li not only solved the Shikon Jewel problem but also wiped out most of the demons in Japan, and he didn't want anything in return, which was truly a cause for celebration.

Chapter 29 Fairy Tale: Dude, aren't you the evil god?

"Ah, you're welcome. It's a pity these monsters arrived too slowly. Otherwise, if they had added a huge fire all at once, the barrier of the cleansing moment could have spread throughout Yingzhou, or even expanded further. Maybe they could have cleansed the whole world," Chen Li said with some regret.

Killing sinful beings during the reckoning period increases the coverage area of ​​the reckoning barrier, but the coverage area will shrink over time, since maintaining the barrier also requires energy.

The assessment of this Miracle Card is correct, because the monsters arrive too slowly in the later stages. Between increasing and decreasing, it can only ensure that the range does not shrink, but cannot allow the range to continue to expand.

Therefore, Chen Li ultimately only managed to cover half of Yingzhou with the barrier of the liquidation moment.

It would be even better if Yingzhou's geographical shape were more regular rather than long and narrow.

Chen Li even intended to help the people of Shenzhou kill some evil demons, but he didn't even get close to the neighboring country.
