eturn home, many more perished on the Qin lands.Speaking of losses.It somewhat resembles the idiom "killing 800 enemies while losing 1,000 of your own."Despite this, the barbarians never cease their i..."The materials used to forge the Zhuxie Crossbow must be quite rare, wouldn't you say"

Shen Changqing changed the subject.

Upon hearing this.

Jiang An shook his head. "The material of the Zhuxie crossbow isn't particularly precious. What's truly valuable is the inscription on it. Those are runes researched by our predecessors in the Zhenxie Pavilion over generations, capable of communicating and unleashing immense power."

>

"Runes are a bit complicated to explain. If Shen brother is interested in learning more about them in the future, he can come to Zhenxie Pavilion anytime, and we would be most welcome."

As the two people chatted.

Unknowingly, I had already passed through the Zhen Shou Yuan and, through the corridor, arrived at the front of the Zhen Mo Yu.

> Out of the passage.

Reaching the side entrance, the two walked inside.

The familiar smell of blood.

Shen Changqing wasn't the first time to come to Zhenmo Prison, even when he first came to Zhenmosis, he was a regular here.

Not long after.

They officially entered the Demon Suppression Prison.

The guards of the Demon-Subduing Prison appeared before their eyes.

"I am from the鎮邪閣, and I have come here to reinforce the seal on the 鎮魔獄."

Jiang An displayed his identity card and then said in a low voice.

The guard carefully examined the token and then respectfully returned it.

Subsequently.

He then turned his gaze to Shen Changqing.

The Demon Prison is a serious matter; anyone entering here must present their identification token, no matter who they are with.

Even before the other person's gaze landed on him, Shen Changqing had already taken out his identity token.

The Exorcist of the Earthly Realm.

>

Shen Changqing!

Looking at the information on the token, the guard respectfully returned the identity token.

"Please come in, honored guests!"

"Thank you!"

Jiang An nodded and, along with Shen Changqing, directly entered the second layer of Zhenmo Prison.

The moment I stepped into the second floor, a chill ran down my spine.

That chill, while intense for an apprentice exorcist, was nothing to them.

He arrived at the first cell.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The former courtesan, who was imprisoned, has now become another kind of demon.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Where's the original courtesan"

Looking at the demons before him, Shen Changqing's expression moved slightly.

Jiang An shook his head: "That siren harmed many civilians. She was imprisoned here before, just for research purposes. After the research was almost complete, she was naturally killed as revenge for the civilians who died at her hands."

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

When discussing the death of demons, this person from the Demon Suppression Pavilion remained calm and showed no signs of agitation.

>

Demons view humans as livestock, and humans view demons in the same way.

Kill.

That's it, then. Let's just kill him.

At this time.

Jiang An's gaze fell on the prison cell, the runes engraved above it had already faded considerably.

“The sealing power has been consumed by half, it seems it's constantly assaulting the seal. Luckily I arrived on time this time, otherwise if I had delayed two or three months, it might have escaped.”

He shook his head slightly.

Then, he unburdened himself, taking out a blade-like object from within.

The blade is slender and completely black as ink.

A strong, eerie aura emanated from it, causing Shen Changqing's eyebrows to twitch slightly.

He did not ask any questions.

He just watched silently as Jiang An moved.

Only to see the other party holding a carving knife, carving runes on the cell wall, gradually merging with the original runes.

Between the lines.

Though it was a simple pattern, in Shen Changqing's eyes, it seemed strangely peculiar.

At the same time.

The black on the carving knife seemed to fade a little as the runes were carved.

The whole process.

Jiang An's carving is like flowing water, giving people a pleasing feeling.

The demons imprisoned within seemed to sense something, and began frantically assaulting the cell door. At the same time, various phantasms materialized, attempting to beguile the two of them.

But.

The demonic illusions held no sway over Shen Changqing's eyes.

>

After breaking through the Grandmaster realm, one's spiritual power undergoes a transformation.

The demonic apparition before him had transformed, but it was no longer able to beguile him.

Visible to the naked eye.

Even if the opponent changed constantly, Shen Changqing could still see the essence of the demon, it was a mass of black gas, without any form.

About a quarter of an hour.

>

Jiang An sheathed his carving knife, repacking his bag and turning to look at Shen Changqing.

"Finally done, Shen brother, let's head to the next cell!"

"Um, okay."

Shen Changqing nodded.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Next, the two of them went to the next cell.

There was another unfamiliar demon there, different from the demons he had seen in the same cell before.

It is obvious.

That demonic being also followed in the footsteps of the alluring woman.

Jiang An used the same old technique, and at the same time he carved runes onto it, repairing all the fading seals.

I saw his actions.

Shen Changqing stood aside, like a spectator, and then spoke.

"Brother Jiang, the runes sealing demons in the Demonic Prison seem similar to the runes on the Exterminating Demon Crossbow you showed me."

"Not bad."

Jiang An's movements didn't stop, but he still managed to answer.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"The role of runes is multifaceted. The Zhuxie Crossbow is just one application method, and the seal within the Demon Suppression Prison is another."

But as I told you before, runes need specific energy to activate.

This is not a valid HTML tag. It seems like you might have made a typo. If you can provide the correct context or tags, I can help you translate the content within them.

The energy of the activation runes is contained on the blade itself.

“Evil spirit!”

Shen Changqing uttered a few words.

Now he was completely certain, the black gas contained within Jiang An's dagger was sinister Qi.

I have always been curious about what the Demon Suppression Agency does with all that negative energy they collect.

Now I see the carving knife.

In his heart, Shen Changqing had a general idea.

It turned out that the collected ominous aura ended up in the hands of the Exorcism Pavilion.

It will be very soon.

Then he thought of something else.

“Since runes can be activated with sinister energy, the Zhuxie Crossbow should be able to as well!”

"It's different," Jiang An shook his head. "Yin-evil energy is highly corrosive to ordinary people. Even if it's used to inscribe talismans, allowing those without true qi to use the Exorcism Crossbow, the aftereffects are endless."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Unless we can eliminate the sinister aura, it will have an impact on ordinary people.

Aha, I see!

Since entering the martial arts academy, Shen Changqing felt as if he had opened up a whole new world. Everything he had seen and heard before was like that of a frog at the bottom of a well.

"Aren't the demons sealed in the Demon Suppression Prison forbidden to be killed at will"

“Of course, catching demons is not easy. Unless the demon has already broken its seal or there's a pressing issue, the demons here should not be slaughtered indiscriminately.”

Jiang An replied casually.

Don't kill indiscriminately!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing looked at the demon in front of him, as if it were a walking killing value, and his heart couldn't help but itch.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He hadn't slain any demons for quite some time, so his killing value was probably stagnant.

Currently, this place seals numerous demons.

To his eyes, it seemed as delicious as a feast.

But Jiang An's words also made Shen Changqing temporarily dispel the idea of harvesting the value of killing in the Demon Prison.

This will be a paragraph.

The second layer of the seal was quickly re-arranged.

Then.

The two of them just stepped into the third layer.

At this moment.

The ominous aura of the third layer was considerably stronger. A lone figure approached, instinctively bowing his head upon seeing Shen Changqing and Jiang An before sidestepping past them.

Suddenly.

Here is the translation:

Shen Changqing reached out his hand.

"Hold on!"

"I wonder, esteemed sir or madam, what brings you here"

The other person was dressed in the attire of an apprentice demon slayer, bowing their head low with a voice trembling with apprehension.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Jiang An, standing nearby, also looked strange and couldn't understand why this person had to be stopped.

Shen Changqing smiled ambiguously: "How do you know I'm an adult"

"——Seeing the esteemed adult's lofty bearing, I understand that you are no ordinary person."

>

He replied truthfully.

"Brother Shen" Jiang An couldn't help but speak out.

Sheng Changqing waved his hand, but his gaze remained fixed on that person.

"You're right, speak up!"

"The little one dares not be presumptuous before the adults."

"What you said is quite agreeable. To be honest, a demon possessing such intelligence and being able to converse so fluently about human affairs truly impresses me. I've slain many demons, but you are the first of your kind."

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing clapped, though his words were an expression of approval, his tone was extremely cold.

Demon!

Jiang An was startled.

Before he could react, the man suddenly sprang up. His lowered face was contorted with bulging veins, and his eyes glowed crimson red.

Roar—

Not like the roar of a human, with hands that slash through the air.

His direct target was none other than Jiang An.

Relying on the perception of demons, it understood that Shen Changqing was not easy to provoke. Conversely, Jiang An on the side had the weakest strength, so he became the target of the attack.

"Die!"

Jiang An was enraged and was about to make a move.

Suddenly.

This text is empty.

Shen Changqing beside him moved, striking out with a palm imbued with the true energy of the Great Sun. The third layer of Yin evil aura was instantly cleared, and an incomparably scorching breath rose in its wake.

Boom—

The palm struck the demon fiercely.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

In an instant.

The demon let out a shrill, ear-piercing scream before being completely consumed by the scorching power.

As for the body it possessed, it was also flung sideways.

After landing.

There hasn't been a single sound since then.

Looking at the increasing kill points on the panel, Shen Changqing smiled inwardly. On the surface, he remained composed, watching Jiang An who was preparing to make a move.

"Jiang brother, I hope I didn't startle you just now"

"No, no, Brother Shen's skill is amazing, I admire you!"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

Jiang An hurriedly shook his head.

The demonic aura was hidden, so much so that it even escaped its own perception. It was clearly a powerful demon, at least as strong as the peak of the congenital realm.

But such a powerful demon was instantly killed with one palm by the person in front of him.

It goes without saying how strong the other party is.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After the shock.

Jiang An looked at the corpse on the ground, his face turned grim.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
