Chapter 1227: The Monster Demon Clan!

Chapter 1227: The Strange Demon Clan!

At this very moment.

Zhou Zhou and Coriel simultaneously felt a bond forming between them—one that echoed the deep, master-servant connection.

Not only they, but Coriel’s son Bartori and the other barbarian god-state ministers who had come to this place, all sensed an inexplicable thickening of Zhou Zhou’s aura. It weighed upon their hearts like a heavy mantle, stirring within them a silent, unspoken sense of submission.

"From now on, we are truly family."

A genuine smile finally broke across Zhou Zhou’s face.

Only after the master-servant territorial pact was sealed did they become true allies.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Coriel let out a sigh of relief and smiled with genuine ease.

Then, suddenly, he stiffened—startled—feeling a jolt through his divine form.

For in that very moment, He suddenly perceived that his inherent potential—originally ranked above true gods—had surged with astonishing speed, crossing the threshold of the Supreme God in mere moments, now standing firmly within the realm of Supreme God potential. And yet, this ascent had not ceased. It continued relentlessly until his potential finally reached the level of Supreme God above, only then did it halt.

"This…"

Kolir stared in stunned disbelief, a mix of wonder and dread surging within his heart.

What in the world is happening?!

His instinct led him to glance at his most cherished child, Bartori, only to find the same expression of astonishment mirrored upon his face.

"Father, my potential has seemingly ascended to the level of Supreme God above."

Bartori, after this surge of potential, spoke to Kolir with a face alight with surprise.

"Supreme God above..."

Kolir's mind reeled. He knew his son well.

Originally, he possessed only the potential of a high-ranking deity.

Just one step away from true godhood—yet that single step represented the chasm between heaven and earth.

Within the God Realm, many of the purple-crystal Ogrons in high office expressed dissatisfaction with this divine heir’s potential, believing he was unworthy to inherit the Ogron God Realm.

For this matter, Colir had been troubled for a long time.

He had only one son of purple-crystal Ogron blood—his others were at most golden Ogrons, and thus utterly ineligible.

Unforeseen, the dilemma that had plagued him for so long vanished mysteriously today…

Could it be…

At this very moment, both Colir and his son turned their gaze toward Zhou Zhou.

The high-ranking officials of the other Ogron realms also turned to Zhou Zhou, their faces alight with bewildered yet electrifying excitement.

Zhou Zhou saw this and smiled faintly,

"Enhancing potential—this is merely the first small gift the Emperor has bestowed upon you since your joining of the Jiaoyang Empire."

"Next comes the second gift."

With those words, Zhou Zhou immediately shared the legendary blessing of the War Supreme God with the Tyrannosaurus Godrealm.

The Tyrannosaurus Godrealm instantly grasped the profound might of this lordly talent, their eyes widening in astonishment once more.

"My God, after defeating an enemy, can one gain an additional 9,000% in advancement energy?! That would mean killing one enemy is equivalent to killing ninety-one enemies! Our growth rate would then surge by no less than ninety times!?"

"This lordly talent is terrifying! Unbelievable!"

"I am absolutely blessed!"

"It's no wonder the Emperor's Jiaoyang Empire, though only recently risen, already surpasses the top-tier racial powers in average soldier strength."

……

The assembly of the barbarian ministers erupted into excited murmurs.

Colir and Bartori were no exception.

Especially Bartori.

Different from his earlier reluctance,

now Bartori’s eyes shone with fervent admiration as he stared at his father.

What a visionary!

How fortunate it was that his father had discovered such a wise and enlightened lord—one who would bring light and prosperity to them all!

If only he had known this earlier, he would have gladly traded his very existence for mere servitude—let alone a vassal domain!

“Beyond what you have already felt, there are countless advantages to becoming my vassal territory. You may not perceive them now, but in time, you will gradually come to feel them.”

Zhou Zhou spoke.

Then, with a wave of his right hand, a world ring shot out and hovered before Colir.

"Here's a little gift for you."

"Take a look."

He smiled faintly.

Colir took a deep breath, his thoughts filled with anticipation, entering the world ring. And there, within it, he saw a complete set of true relics perfectly aligned with his own law path.

Colir gasped.

Though he had long heard that the deities of the Jiaoyang Empire each possessed their own true relics, hearing it was entirely different from experiencing it firsthand.

Colir forced down the surge of emotion within him, and with gratitude, said, "Thank you, Majesty, for bestowing these relics upon me!"

"Serve me well."

"I swear I will ensure you all attain the future you have long dreamed of."

Zhou Zhou spoke.

"Subject, I pledge to die for the Emperor!"

Colir, Batori, and all the members of the Griffin Empire present bowed in solemn reverence.

A flood of loyalty-increase notifications appeared before Zhou Zhou's eyes.

He glanced at them briefly, then turned away.

"The matter is settled. Then let us proceed to the next step—go forth and wage war."

Zhou Zhou said.

"Your Majesty, against whom shall we wage war?"

Colir and the others exclaimed with unbridled excitement.

If this were the past, they would never have reacted so fiercely now.

But as the saying goes—those who carry blades are driven by bloodlust.

Now, with their own potential soaring, fortified by the innate talents of war god lords, and empowered by the true divine artifact just acquired by Colir, they feel an insatiable urge to strike immediately and wage war!

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhou said nothing, but instead asked:

"Colir, does the Beast God Nation have any enemies?"

Colir was taken aback, then instinctively replied, "Of course—the Dragon Clan."

"Besides the Dragon Clan,"

Zhou Zhou said.

"Besides the Dragon Clan, it would be the forces of the Monster God Nation's lords!"

A surge of hatred flickered across Colir's face.

"Monstrous Beasts?"

The data on this race surfaced naturally in Zhou Zhou's mind.

The race of Monstrous Beasts!

These creatures emerge from the negative emotions of living beings, further catalyzed by dark, energy-laden objects that stir such emotions. Within their very genes lies an innate, world-destroying ferocity.

Every single one of their births unleashes a devastating catastrophe upon the world.

For this reason, across the countless realms of existence, they are known by a name far more familiar to all living creatures.

The [Beasts] or [Catastrophic Beasts]!

They resemble the Abyssal creatures, yet differ in one crucial aspect: even if Abyssal beings possess the highest bloodline, newborn Abyssal demons must grow slowly and step by step within the Abyss before they can ascend to godhood or beyond.

But the monsters, they are born as warriors, possessing at the very least transcendent strength!

The most powerful of them, even at birth, reach the level of Supreme God!

Yet that supreme being—the "Monster Emperor" of Supreme God tier—was recently slain by a coalition of other Supreme God-level beings.

As for whether there are any other monster lords at the Supreme God level, that remains unknown.

Currently, the several Monster Lord factions across the Highest Continent were all founded by True Gods—monsters of True God tier.

He pondered for a moment, then said:

"Given this, then our war objective today shall be your enemy."

"The Monster Kingdom—a Lord Faction of Divine Nation!"
