"Wen Yi" quickly urged "Oren Vikin," saying, "Brother Oren, please tell us about the situation in the Dark World! We wouldn't want to unknowingly offend any powerful forces or experts in the future and end up in trouble without understanding why."
Under "Wen Yi's" insistence, even "Ma Jingjie" and "Chen Mingbin" gathered around. "Oren Vikin" had no choice but to sit down with them on the ground. Fortunately, "Ding Chifeng's" private shooting range was cleaned daily by dedicated staff, so the floor was very clean, and they didn't have to worry about dirtying their clothes.
"Fang Lin Kong" and the others sat closely around "Oren Vikin," listening as he slowly began to speak: "In this world, humans and monsters coexist. To protect their own races, they have clearly divided into two major camps. The monsters have organized the International Yokai Alliance, while on the human side, we primarily represent the Demon Hunting Team. Our Demon Hunting Team was established long before the founding of Christianity; in terms of foundation, no one can compare." At this point, a hint of pride appeared on "Oren Vikin's" face, clearly taking great honor in his organization.
"And then? China isn't under the jurisdiction of the Demon Hunting Team, right? Are there other forces among humans?"
"Wen Yi's" repeated questioning left "Oren Vikin" both amused and exasperated. He suddenly remembered that these young people were all Chinese, who were known for their innate ability to blaspheme. They could casually pull out a charlatan claiming to be a descendant of the Jade Emperor or possessed by Taishang Laojun. Many men openly referred to themselves as brothers of the Western God, so boasting about how great the Demon Hunting Team was clearly didn't align with Chinese sentiments.
"There are countless human organizations; however, those that can be considered international are just our Demon Hunting Team and America's Exorcist Guild. You Chinese have always been dominated by sects and do not have international organizations like ours. The Eastern Thunder that once hunted you down was a disciple of Kunlun."
"Kunlun disciples? Are there any other sects?" "Wen Yi" continued to press.
"Oren Vikin" replied helplessly, "There are indeed countless sects in China; our internal records in the Demon Hunting Team list over two hundred, not including those with single-line transmissions or those that have secluded themselves from society. The most famous among them is the Kongtong Sect."
"Kongtong Sect? Why is this sect so notable? In martial arts novels, Kongtong Sect is often portrayed as a trash sect with no notable experts." "Wen Yi" had initially thought that perhaps Buddhism and Taoism could rank among the seven major sects or nine orthodox schools. He never expected that "Oren Vikin's" highest praise would go to such an obscure sect.
"Oren Vikin" said seriously, "The reason Kongtong Sect is so famous is that its leader, Zhuang Lou, Grand Master, is the only Chinese person in Kyo Kusanagi. He is known for 'the astonishing Nine Swords of Defense against Heaven and controlling fire dragons.' His Taoist skills are profound and unfathomable; his strength is recognized throughout the world. Even among Westerners or monsters, he has a formidable reputation."
"Fang Lin Kong" pressed down on the increasingly excited "Wen Yi," asking with a strange expression, "What exactly is Kyo Kusanagi? Also, will Kunlun send people to trouble us again in the future?"
Oren Vikin smiled wryly and said, "Kyo Kusanagi is nothing special, just eight guys. According to the current international standards, the classification of power levels based on spiritual energy, mental state, and other aspects has its limits. There's an old saying in China: 'Human strength has its limits.' Whether humans or monsters, once their power reaches a certain point, there is an insurmountable boundary. Ninety-nine out of a hundred individuals find that once they reach that limit in their training, they can no longer advance further."
"Only a very few exceptional individuals, who are gifted, fortunate, and diligent in their practice, can break through this boundary. In China, such people are called immortals; in the West, they are referred to as the Chosen of God; among monsters, they are known as demon gods. After surpassing this remarkable boundary, the fundamental difference lies not in the level of power but in the completely different forms of life between the two. Only the latter can transcend the constraints of nature, control the essence of power between heaven and earth, and possess wisdom as unfathomable as the depths of the cosmos and abilities comparable to ancient deities."
"At that level of transformation, there are only eight individuals on the entire planet, and they are collectively known as Kyo Kusanagi."
Wen Yi couldn't help but feel disappointed upon hearing this. He completely failed to understand what made these powers different. The only thing that came to his mind was one thing, which he blurted out: "Our China only has one Divine Extremity; that's really too few."
Oren Vikin chuckled softly and replied, "Who says there's only one? I mentioned that Zhuang Lou, Grand Master is the only Chinese person among Kyo Kusanagi. I didn't say whether there are any Chinese monsters. Among Kyo Kusanagi, 'Demon Realm's Number One' Yuan Qian Kun and 'Demon Severing the World' Wu Dong Shen are both native Chinese monsters; they just happen to have immigrated overseas now."
Upon hearing this, Wen Yi's spirits lifted as he continued to ask, "Then who else is left in Kyo Kusanagi? Who is considered number one in the world?"
"Without a doubt, the number one is Yuan Qian Kun, who single-handedly founded the International Demon Alliance. The rest includes two members from our Demon Hunting Team: one is our team leader. The other is our team's top expert, Allen Xuding Si. Years ago, Allen challenged Yuan Qian Kun and lost but was the only person in nearly a thousand years who could challenge Yuan Qian Kun without dying. Because of his insights from that life-and-death battle, he became the last person to step into Divine Extremity within Kyo Kusanagi and is also the youngest."
"However, I don't even know who the remaining three are; you'll have to find out for yourselves later!"
Wen Yi felt restless after Oren Vikin's introduction and was clearly dissatisfied with such an incomplete overview. Just as he was about to press for more details, Fang Lin Kong remembered that he still had homework to do at Ding Qingya's house. Continuing to linger here seemed pointless. He bid farewell to Oren Vikin and pulled his increasingly stylish friends out of the shooting club.
Ding Chifeng was quite generous; he had been sending a special car back and forth to pick up Fang Lin Kong and his friends these past few days while Oren Vikin simply stayed at the club. After all, there was food and entertainment at the shooting club, and plenty of luxurious rooms for resting—accommodation was never a concern.
On the way out, Fang Lin Kong quietly reflected on what he had just heard while recalling a memory from his future self that lingered in his mind. He couldn't help but shake his head. Life may change or be beyond one's control, but Fang Lin Kong did not wish to stray from his ordinary life trajectory.
As Fang Lin Kong thought about that book—the Gouli Heaven's Tome —that had been maliciously mailed to him, he had no idea how much turmoil it had already caused. Because of this Gouli Heaven's Tome, dark forces were stirring with an intensity beyond imagination.
Hong Kong has long been regarded as one of the wealthiest cities in the world.
Situated on the eastern side of the Pearl River Estuary by the South China Sea, it comprises Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, and the New Territories, which include Lantau Island and over two hundred smaller islands. To the north, it borders Shenzhen River, connecting it to Guangdong Province and the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone. To the west, it faces Macau across the sea, just about sixty kilometers away. Covering an area of one thousand ninety-two square kilometers, it has a population of approximately six and a half million. Renowned as an international financial center, trade hub, and free port, its economic prosperity attracts global attention. Even though there has been a slight decline in recent years, it remains one of the regions with the highest number of wealthy Chinese individuals in the world.
