I Became Invincible By Offering Up Sacrifices To My Sect's Grandmaster

Zhou Dao transmigrated to a world where demons rampaged and Daoist laws ruled. His sect was in straitened circumstances, and their property was on the brink of being demolished. Desperate, Zhou Dao had his eyes fixed on the coffin of the sect’s Grandmaster and decided to do something with it. A voice rang, “D*mn! You are actually plotting to steal my skull. With your attitude, Sunset Mountain has a chance of reaching its heyday again!” On that very night, the corpse of the Grandmaster moved! Moving forward, Zhou Dao would receive rewards whenever he offered up demonic beasts as sacrifices to the Grandmaster. He offered up a 1000-year zombie as a sacrifice and received the Indestructible Body of Demon Refining. He offered up a nine-tailed demon fox as a sacrifice and received a Fox Girl Puppet. He offered up a demon turtle from the Eastern Sea as a sacrifice and received a high-power muscle massage gun. … For eons, countless Daoist members meditated on The Yellow Court Classic. For years to come, Zhou Dao harvested countless demonic beasts with no intention of burying them. Many years later, in the same Daoist temple, Zhou Dao sat at the front door as he bore witness to the joy and the sorrow of all creations. He had seen birth, illness, death, and all sorts of bizarre phenomena. He put on a crooked grin as he said, “I offer up the heavens and the earth as a sacrifice.”

Chapter 09: Chen Qinggang, the Spendthrift

Translator: 549690339

Fifteen Thunder!

The circulation of Blood energy throughout Heaven, creating a thunderous sound, is known as "Fifteen."

With such strength, even among the Refining Realm Seventh Transformation, it can be considered a top-notch Expert.

Among the Three Major City Guards of the Demon Control Department, Chen Qinggang has barely reached the realm of "Three Thunder."

"With my current strength, I have no fear even when facing the three major city guards." Zhou Dao was overjoyed.

The three major city guards of the Demon Control Department, Chen Xuangang, Wang Hongbo, and Zhang Beixuan, are all at the Refining Realm Seventh Transformation [Chattering Thunder], and besides Chen Qinggang, the strength of the other two should not differ too much.

According to Zhou Dao's knowledge, Wang Hongbo is the most experienced among the three major city guards, with an official rank of White Feather Eighth Rank and strength reaching the realm of "Nine Thunders."

Zhang Beixuan, on the other hand, is the most talented and powerful among the Three Great City Guards, and also has an official rank of White Feather Eighth Rank.

"Zhang Beixuan rarely takes action, but his strength should be around Twelve Thunders." Zhou Dao speculated.

Zhang Beixuan is highly skilled and excellent at training his subordinates, so the two deputy city guards beside him are also top-tier experts in Chattering Thunder, meaning he rarely takes action himself.

However, according to Zhou Dao's estimation, there should not be a significant difference between Zhang Beixuan and Wang Hongbo.

This can be seen from their official ranks.

Other than valuing experience and contributions, the most important promotion indicator for the Supervisory Ranks of the Demon Control Department is strength.

Among the three major city guards, although they have the same official position, Chen Qinggang's strength has only reached the realm of "Three Thunders," which is somewhat lacking compared to the other two city guards, so his official rank is only White Feather Seventh Rank.

As for Zhang Beixuan and Wang Hongbo, since both are White Feather Eighth Rank, the strength of the two should belong to the same level.

Now, in Peace Town, it seems that there are not many people who can surpass me." Zhou Dao was secretly delighted.

In just two years since joining the Demon Control Department, he had achieved such a realm that even the strength of the Three Major City Guards could not compete with him.

All of this was due to the blessings of the Ancestral Founder.

Now, within the Demon Control Department, perhaps only the mysterious Town Leader can suppress him.

The leader of the department is at least an Expert who has reached the Refining Realm Eight Transformations [Blood Qi True Fire].

Having been in the Demon Control Department for two years, Zhou Dao had only seen the Town Leader once.

Such experts rarely show themselves and rarely move around within the department.

Generally, the Demon-slaying Guards have no access to them.

"Continue to sacrifice to the Ancestral Master!" Zhou Dao was unwavering.

As long as he continues to sacrifice, he will sooner or later reach the Refining Realm Eight Transformations [Blood Qi True Fire] and completely surpass the Town Leader.

By that time, he would be an invincible existence within Peace Town.

"Recently, there seems to be a lot more demon beasts in the town." Zhou Dao's eyes were shining with different colors.

When there are many demon beasts, the town becomes restless, and ordinary people become frightened.

However, this means that Zhou Dao has more opportunities to offer sacrifices.

Demon-slaying and offering sacrifices as a Daoist is indeed our duty!" Zhou Dao revealed a fox-like smile.

He didn't care about world peace and the stability of people's hearts.

He just wanted to stay within the Demon Control Department, sacrifice in peace, and quietly improve his strength.

No words for the whole night!

The next day, Zhou Dao arrived at the Demon Control Department early in the morning.

Yesterday's battle made the atmosphere of the entire Demon Control Department tense.

Although there are annual casualty targets for the Demon Control Department, most of the time they mainly result in injuries, not deaths.

"Poor Fang Hai, even his heart was dug out by that demon fox... he died a gruesome death!"

"That demon fox was too fierce. With one strike, the evil spirits penetrated his bones. I heard that Fang Hai's body was burnt overnight, and even his family didn't get to see him one last time."

"He had just been promoted to Demon-slaying Guard last month and died so suddenly."

"I heard he has two younger sisters, and the whole family depended on him. Now that he's dead, they have no one to rely on."

Many people were whispering.

The status of the Demon-slaying Guard was very high, receiving royal salary, and having a promising future.

Because of his Demon-slaying Guard status, Fang Hai had helped his two sisters arrange two good marriages, but now that he's gone, even these marriages may not be secure.

Originally, the other parties had valued his Demon-slaying Guard status, otherwise, it would be almost impossible for a commoner to marry into a wealthy family.

"It's still safer to stay in the Demon Gathering Room!" Zhou Dao sighed, not paying too much attention, and headed straight for the Demon Gathering Room.

"Brother Dao, why are you only coming now?" Wang Xiaoyi approached him and whispered, "The Lord of the Capital Guard came early this morning."

"It seems to be for yesterday's case." Zhou Dao felt a thump in his heart.

Obviously, Chen Qinggang wanted to personally deal with those demon foxes.

After all, it was too unusual for so many demon beasts to appear suddenly in that house, killing so many people, and even causing losses to the Demon-slaying Guard and missing a High-Level Evil Class monster.

Such a big incident had made the Capital Guard restless.

At the entrance, Xu Qian walked out from inside.

He was still arrogant, not even looking at Zhou Dao and the others, passing directly through the center of the two.

"What the hell is he so arrogant about? Wasn't he treated like a dead dog yesterday?" Wang Xiaoyi gritted his teeth.

"This kid's demonic energy is getting heavier and heavier." Zhou Dao looked at Xu Qian's receding back, murmuring to himself.

No one would believe that a lofty Demon-slaying Guard would have demonic energy accumulating in their body.

It was unknown what method Xu Qian used to hide it so well.

If it weren't for Zhou Dao's offerings to the Ancestral Founder and his consumption of numerous treasures, it would be difficult for him to see it.

But it wasn't his concern.

Zhou Dao retracted his gaze and walked into the Demon Gathering Room.

"Holy shit!"

On the table, the corpses of those demon foxes had been dissected by Chen Qinggang to the point of being fragmented, like a massive crime scene.

Zhou Dao only took one glance and nearly couldn't resist shouting out loud.

This was too wasteful, if used as a sacrifice to the Ancestral Founder, how many treasures would they have acquired?

Zhou Dao felt his heart bleeding.

Offering the Ancestral Founder could only be done with complete demon beasts. With the corpses "ruined" like this, not to mention the Ancestral Founder, even Zhou Dao himself couldn't appreciate it.

"I really wanted to slap him." Zhou Dao's hands were itching, wishing he could slap him.

"Lord of the Capital Guard!" Zhou Dao respectfully greeted him.

Chen Qinggang didn't even lift his head and just hummed softly.

"Vein Dividing Knife!" Chen Qinggang suddenly said.

Hearing this, Zhou Dao handed a crystalline translucent small knife from his toolbox.

This knife was specifically used for stripping the meridians of demon beasts.

Hum...

As soon as Chen Qinggang picked it up, his mighty blood energy attached itself to the blade, cleanly cutting through the demon fox's flesh like tofu, while the pure Yang power scattered the internal evil spirits directly.

The blood energy of such a master surpassed any evil warding treasure, even without using any treasures, he didn't even need to use Evil Dispel Sand.

"As expected of the Capital Guard, his technique is indeed proficient." Zhou Dao watched Chen Qinggang's movements and thought to himself.

This level of skill was even better than the most experienced old Taoist Demon Sealing Master.

If it were in his previous life, Chen Qinggang could absolutely be a forensic doctor with excellent professional skills, the kind with a very high salary.

"Zhou Dao, you've been in the Demon Control Department for two years already, right?"

At this time, Chen Qinggang suddenly spoke.

His movements didn't pause for a moment.
