Gao Jianfei could only temporarily put aside his concerns.
He had Tang Long forge him a replica, a knock-off version of the crescent moon scimitar, using iron tools, and even had a few words engraved on it... "Listening to the spring rain in a small building at night..."
Of course, this knock-off version of the Crescent Moon Blade did not contain the sealed divine and demonic power.
Gao Jianfei spent a day cultivating the demonic energy within his mind. Then, when wielding the Crescent Moon Blade, its power was considerable. With a single strike, the blade was so sharp that its movement was invisible, only a flash of light! The fierce demon roared, terrifying all who heard it, and then the enemy was killed! After death, the enemy would continue to speak and walk normally until, several tens of seconds later, when they would be sliced in two. A perfectly even split.
After mastering the Demon Blade technique, Gao Jianfei used a knife in his left hand and a sword in his right, greatly increasing his martial arts skills!
The Demon Blade, combined with the Sword God's artistic conception, can be described as... unstoppable, slaying gods and Buddhas alike!
After successfully completing his cultivation, Gao Jianfei went to a special space and spent a few hours playing with his family and wives, telling them that the European battlefield had been liberated.
Everyone agreed that peace was on the horizon!
Of course, it wasn't just Gao Jianfei who shared the good news with his family and wife; his family and wife also relayed the good news to Gao Jianfei... With the guarantee of ample orange ore, they..." all became platinum-level ability users!
Gao Jianfei was overjoyed and immediately laughed. "Alright! Now that everyone has become a Platinum-level ability user, you're among the strongest on Earth. So, let's leave here together and go to Japan! To kill those aliens!"
Chapter 631 All Out
After mastering the Demonic Crescent Moon Saber technique, Gao Jianfei wielded a saber in his left hand and a sword in his right, greatly enhancing his martial arts skills. While Gao Jianfei's current martial arts prowess allowed him to wield each hand with skill and ease, there was still a certain heaviness to it. He couldn't yet achieve complete freedom of control. This was a weakness. Of course, for those of weaker strength, this weakness wouldn't be considered a weakness. However, against a strong opponent of similar strength, life and death could be decided in an instant! If Gao Jianfei wanted to overcome this weakness, he needed to master multitasking! In simpler terms, the ability to draw a circle with his left hand and a square with his right. Gao Jianfei had previously seen on television some people in modern society with a small talent: they could paint with their left hand and write poetry with their right, simultaneously. This could be considered multitasking. Gao Jianfei could piece together a ghost with this ability at a very low cost. If such a ghost existed, it would probably be at most a level 2 ghost. This technique of multitasking can be mastered quickly. However, this is only the tip of the iceberg; it's insufficient to unleash two supreme martial arts techniques. Therefore, to truly transform a weakness into a powerful martial art, there is only one way… to become a talent capable of multitasking in martial arts!
Gao Jianfei knew of two such talented individuals.
Both of these people are classic characters created by Mr. Jin Yong.
One is Zhou Botong, the Old Urchin, an important character who appears in both *The Legend of the Condor Heroes* and *The Return of the Condor Heroes*! He's a cynical and powerful figure who invented the Ambidextrous Fighting Technique, using both hands to wield two different martial arts, like two martial arts masters attacking the enemy simultaneously! Incredibly powerful! This is the pinnacle of multitasking. It's a thousand times better than someone in modern society who paints with one hand and writes poetry with the other. After all, painting and writing poetry cannot be compared to wielding two supreme martial arts techniques in a life-or-death struggle with an enemy.
The second character is also capable of multitasking. He has honed this skill to its absolute peak. Coincidentally, this second character learned multitasking from Zhou Botong.
No girl!
Yang Guo's wife, Xiaolongnu!
Even Yang Guo couldn't learn it, but Xiaolongnu did!
In other words, if Gao Jianfei were to encounter a ghost, he could learn to simultaneously employ two different martial arts techniques, thus elevating his martial arts skills to a new level!
Just thinking about it makes me smug. A demonic blade in the left hand and a divine sword in the right, essentially possessing both Ding Peng and Xie Xiaofeng to attack the enemy... that would be invincible!
Gao Jianfei pondered aimlessly for a while. However, currently, due to piecing together the behemoth Ding Peng, Gao Jianfei's exorcism points were completely depleted. Therefore, he couldn't spare any extra exorcism points to piece together Zhou Botong and Xiaolongnu. Moreover, the war was urgent; Gao Jianfei was waiting to go to the Asian battlefield to wipe out the last group of Beast King Star people and destroy their spatial passage. Liberate Asia, liberate the world.
Time is of the essence and cannot be delayed. If it is delayed, more and more enemies will descend upon the Asian battlefield every day, and it will become increasingly difficult to wipe them all out.
Gao Jianfei escaped the den of demons.
Because his family and women had all reached the level of Platinum-level superhumans, Gao Jianfei took them out for some fresh air. Of course, he didn't expect them to be able to fight bravely, but at least they would have some ability to protect themselves and breathe in the fresh air of the outside world, instead of getting bored in the special space of the Ghost Den.
When faced with dangerous battles, Gao Jianfei would also bring his parents, aunts, and other women back to the Ghost Den.
After leaving the haunted house, the family and Li Yun and the other women went shopping in London, experiencing the excitement of Europeans and the reconstruction of London.
Gao Jianfei was making intensive preparations to send the EU army, together with the American army, directly to Asia!
The four platinum-level ability users were also fully prepared for battle.
"Mr. Gao, we are ready, and the Allied forces in the Americas are ready. Our elite troops will be airdropped into the Allied base in Asia, the capital of country Z!" Commander Gao of the EU coalition reported to Gao Jianfei.
"Okay." Gao Jianfei snapped his fingers. "Then, be ready to leave in one hour!"
"Finally, I've returned to my motherland once again. I wonder what the country is like now. Liu Feng and the others must be actively preparing for war."
Gao Jianfei was lost in thought.
Soon, news came from the Americas that the Allied forces in the Americas had completed their aircraft formation assembly, and various supplies, special forces personnel, and equipment had been loaded onto the planes, which were officially taking off for Asia, to the capital of country Z.
An hour later, hundreds of European Allied aircraft also took off and flew towards Asia.
Upon hearing that they were going back to China, Mom, Dad, Aunt, and others were overjoyed. Although they were now powerful Platinum-level ability users, deep down they still had the mentality of ordinary people.
Asia. Japan. Tokyo.
The situation is very chaotic! The situation in Tokyo is very chaotic!
This kind of "chaos" isn't manifested in Earthlings. After all, Japan has been occupied by aliens for quite some time now. The Japanese have long been numb to it, living as slaves, engaging in all sorts of things that sell their physical labor, personality, and dignity. They don't harbor any "chaos," nor do they dare to be.
The chaos was caused by the Beast King aliens stationed in Japan! They were truly in disarray! Like headless flies, their hearts were filled with fear!
The reason is simple: the space passage between Europe and America was destroyed, and a mage and a sword saint perished. This news has already spread across the Japanese battlefield.
Currently, the number of Beast King aliens stationed on the Japanese battlefield has reached more than 10,000!
Moreover, there is also a Sword Saint in command.
However, this sword saint had already become fearful. Because his own strength was still slightly inferior to that of the fallen sword saint Hertz. Hertz's demise caused this sword saint, 'Kaiya,' to feel a sense of shared sorrow and unease.
Kaiya has learned from the internet that a terrifying figure named 'Gao Jianfei' has emerged on Earth, and both Hertz and Lorna died at his hands.
Moreover, the media and the internet on Earth are lavishly praising Gao Jianfei's incredible bravery. They claim he single-handedly killed hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of aliens!
Normally, Sword Saint Kaeya would have ignored such a revelation and simply laughed it off. However, now, all the Beast King aliens on the European and American battlefields were indeed completely dead.
"Could it be that Gao Jianfei is really that powerful?" Kaiya stood beneath a large building in Tokyo. It was nighttime. Kaiya, along with a group of level 8 and 9 high-level combat professionals from Beast King Star, guarded the area beneath this building.
"Kaiya Sword Saint, I hope the elders can send some strong individuals of similar strength to you to help guard Tokyo, Japan. Otherwise..." a level 9 mage said worriedly.
Now that the entirety of Japan is under the control of the Beast King aliens, much like Britain in Europe, they are using Earthlings to rebuild Japan. Japan is now more beautiful than it was in peacetime. This is because these Beast King aliens brought with them a large quantity of their native products and special minerals to build Japan. They have grown fond of Japan. The scenery here is far more beautiful and the resources far richer than on Beast King Star.
They really didn't want to end this invasion with their tails between their legs and roll back to Beast King Star.
They are captivated by the beauty of Earth!
"This war is different from what we imagined," Sword Saint Kaeya sighed. "We always thought that Earthlings were incredibly fragile, easier to hunt than level 1 magical beasts. We thought we could deal with all the technological inventions they made. We thought invading Earth would just take time... But now, we're wrong! The price we've paid is too heavy! The destruction of the two spatial portals is equivalent to destroying two-thirds of our national strength! The fall of Sword Saint Hertz and the Goddess of Magic Lorna is an irreparable loss. And then there are the tens of thousands of our compatriots who perished... Alas, they were all brave and skilled warriors!"
Kaiya is very worried.
The current situation is that the leadership of Beast King Star has made a fatal mistake, and their invasion of Earth is likely to fail. If they fail, civil war will erupt on Beast King Star!
You must understand that for the Beast King aliens, this battle is one of absolute certainty: success is the only option, failure is not an option.
The three spatial passages contained all of Beast King Star's resources. Now, the destruction of two of these passages has been devastating. If the third passage is also destroyed, Beast King Star will be impoverished and will never be able to recover to its former glory.
Civil war breaks out, resources are seized... and in the end, the planet will be destroyed!
“Right now, our situation is really difficult,” Kaiya said with a mournful face.
One of the mages was also extremely pessimistic. "Kaiya the Sword Saint, are we going to retreat and end this battle?"
"Ending this battle is not a perfect ending. Our withdrawal signifies our defeat," Kaiya said slowly. "The best solution now is to reach an agreement with Earthlings... a ceasefire! Let Earthlings share some territory with us, and we will not invade each other's territory. We obviously don't have the ability to conquer the entire Earth for the time being; we only need a portion of the territory. For example, a portion of Asia, or perhaps a portion of Europe or the Americas."
"No! We can devour the entire Earth! We must have unwavering faith and determination!"
Suddenly, a sharp voice rang out in the night sky.
The spatial passageway was brightly lit.
Another 1,000 Beast King aliens were teleported over.
Among these 1000 Beast King aliens, there are a few special ones.
There were a total of 12 people with terrifying auras!
Six sword masters! Six mages!
"Oh! Gods! What brings you here?" Sword Saint Kaeya walked over in disbelief.
It's important to know that there are a total of 8 sword saints and 7 mages on the entire Beast King Star.
Two sword saints and one mage were teleported to Earth ahead of time.
Now, the remaining 6 sword saints and 6 mages have all been teleported over at the same time, in the same batch.
This is simply... an all-out attack!
On Beast King Star, elite troops have been mobilized in full force! (To be continued)
Chapter 632 Going to the Meeting Alone!
All the high-level, peak-tier combat professionals from Beast King Star have descended upon the Japanese battlefield all at once! Although only 1000 people were teleported, among them are six Sword Saints and six Archmages! This is the entire strength of Beast King Star! This demonstrates the Beast King Star people's determination to conquer Earth! They will not back down!
"Oh! You've come too?" Sword Saint Kaeya exclaimed in disbelief. The Beast King aliens responsible for welcoming them held their breath! This force was terrifying! Six Sword Saints and six Archmages—this already encompassed a formidable military force from Beast King Planet! This force was enough to ignite a massive interstellar war! Enough to invade a planet with both magical and martial arts civilizations! And now, they'd all arrived on Earth!
"Kaiya, listen to me. We have just arrived on Earth, and we are unfamiliar with the situation here," a leading Archmage said with great authority. He was the oldest Archmage on Beast King Star, possessing unparalleled magical abilities and revered by all the inhabitants of Beast King Star! Even the other Archmages and Sword Saints worshipped this elder Archmage. Essentially, they addressed him as their mentor and held him in high esteem.
This Archmage is named 'He-Man'. It is said that he is 345 years old! He has witnessed the rise and fall of several dynasties on Beast King Star, possessing a wealth of worldly experience. Therefore, he is an intelligent being.
“Kaiya, take me to your command post.” The Archmage, Heman, followed Kaiya directly forward. He sniffed the damp, chilly air of the Tokyo night sky and remarked, “This is a nice planet. Very nice, much better than Beast King Star. Kaiya, we need to hold an emergency meeting.”
"Alright. Instructor Hyman, please follow me." Kaiya instantly sensed the gravity of the situation. It could be said that Beast King Star had mobilized its entire national strength and all its elite talents to come to Earth. If these Sword Saints and Gods of Magic were to perish on Earth, it would be a devastating blow to Beast King Star! It's important to understand that the birth of a God of Magic or Sword Saint is extremely difficult. Proportionally, it's estimated that only one is born every few decades.
Kaiya, Ningshiman, and the others took them to a café in Tokyo. This was a place Kaiya often frequented. The elegant ambiance, the enchanting serenade, the rich coffee, and some local Japanese songs filled the air. A prostitute was energetically swaying her hips.
"very nice."
Heiman accepted a cup of coffee from a young Japanese woman, and for the first time in his life, he tasted this beverage, a product of Earth.
"The taste is so unique!" Heman downed his entire cup of coffee in one gulp. Then he took a deep breath. "I have to say, Earthlings know how to enjoy life better than us Beast Kings."
The six sword saints and five mage gods who had come with He-Man all looked at him with approval. They asked for a refill.
"Alright, let's get down to business." Hyman's expression turned serious again. "Although we on Beast King Star cannot know the situation of your vanguard forces after they arrived on Earth, the space tunnels we sent to London and Rio de Janeiro have been destroyed. We on distant Beast King Star can sense this. Therefore, we know the situation is very unfavorable! Initially, we were full of confidence in this war. The elders received descriptions of Earth and knew it was an easily conquered planet. Earthlings are weak, so we might suffer some losses in the early stages, but as more warriors and mages are sent, we will easily conquer Earth. But… things went wrong. The space tunnels to London and Rio de Janeiro were destroyed one after another, which not only caused huge losses and impacts on our national strength, but also led to fierce disputes among the elders. Some elders believe we were too hasty in launching the war. Others believe we misjudged Earth. Kaia, I want to hear your opinion."
"Well... due to He-Man, I regret to inform you that the Archmage Lorna and the Sword Saint Hertz have fallen. We have failed! Rio de Janeiro and London—two disastrous battles, devastating defeats—have led to our imminent loss of control over Earth. Now, only I remain to lead the Japanese campaign. But I already feel like I'm fighting alone. There's probably only one factor that caused all of this..." Kaeya said earnestly.
"Is it the wisdom of Earthlings? They invented weapons that can deal with us?" Heman immediately blurted out.
"Uh... Mentor Hyman, Earthlings are indeed very clever. In recent battles, they have indeed invented weapons specifically designed to target us. However, this is only a small factor. The bigger factor is that an incredible person has appeared on Earth... Gao Jianfei! Yes, his name is Gao Jianfei! It is said that the fall of Hertz Sword Saint and Lorna Mage was caused by this guy. He even killed thousands of our compatriots with his bare hands! He alone decided the course of this battle! If it weren't for him, we probably would have already conquered Earth!" Kaiya reported truthfully.
"Oh? Because of one person, this battle was resolved..." A thoughtful expression appeared in He-Man's eyes, then he changed the subject. "Kaiya, you've always been a very opinionated person, full of wisdom. So, can you tell me, what should we do now?"
“Well…” Kaeya paused for a minute before speaking. “Mentor Hyman, if I were the commander, I would have two plans.”
“Go ahead,” Himan gave Kaiya an encouraging look. The other Archmages and Sword Saints also watched Kaiya intently.
“First, we can try to win Gao Jianfei over,” Kaiya explained his thoughts in detail. “We can use enormous benefits to get Gao Jianfei to join our Beast King Star! We’ll give him good treatment and a very high position. We can even support him to become the king of Earth! You see, we’re only invading Earth; we don’t intend to slaughter all Earthlings. Therefore, we need a reliable Earthling to manage Earth for us. And Gao Jianfei is a suitable candidate. Of course, the premise is that he’s willing to betray Earth and join our team. However, I think this plan isn’t very feasible.”
After a pause, Kaiya continued, "There's another plan: to negotiate with the Earthlings. We'll abandon our plan to conquer the entire planet. All we need is for the Earthlings to carve out a region for us, the Beast King Star people. For example, they could give us Asia, or a part of Europe, a part of the Americas, or even a part of Africa... We'll build our own cities there, sign a non-aggression pact with the Earthlings, and coexist peacefully. Of course, in return, we can open magic schools and martial arts schools on Earth, allowing talented children to study there. We can also help the Earthlings defend against a potential interstellar war."
“No,” Hyman shook his head directly. “Clever Kaiya, your second plan won’t work. The situation on Beast King Star is very dangerous right now. Civil war could break out at any moment. We need the entire Earth, not just a part of it. All of us Beast King Star people will migrate to Earth, settle down here, and all Earthlings will become tools for our reproduction and breeding, slaves. This is why we’ve given everything to come to Earth. If we haven’t taken control of Earth within a month, then war will break out on Beast King Star! Civil war will destroy our planet!”
Heman's eyes narrowed. "We have one month left!"
Immediately, he said, "Alright, I believe that the Earth forces will soon put pressure on the Japanese battlefield. Let's see just how terrifying Gao Jianfei's fighting power really is. If even all of us combined can't handle him, then we can try to win him over. We can use our best resources to win him over."
As he spoke, Heman glanced at one of the Archmages who had come with him.
She was a young woman with green skin, pointed ears, exquisitely beautiful features, and a magically gentle temperament.
