Great Ming: I Became a God of Slaughter, and Chongzhen Begged Me to Stop

★Delightfully overpowered growth + historical conquest★ A modern special forces soldier with ever-growing strength

In the first year of the Chongzhen era, at Longmen Guard in Xuanfu, modern special forces soldier Li Xian transmigrates into a border garrison soldier at Jingluo Beacon Tower. He discovers that his strength surges every year, and that practicing swordsmanship, marksmanship, or archery greatly increases his proficiency.

Thus, the God of Slaughter descends upon the Ming, forging an invincible legend even more fearsome than Chang Yuchun!

“I’m taking Aji Ge’s head!” Li Xian charges into the enemy ranks alone on horseback, his spear knocking the Later Jin prince’s great banner flying. When Huang Taiji leads his army to the frontier, Li Xian laughs as he raises his saber: “Do you know that my combat strength doubles every day?”

With a slaughtering blade in his left hand and the realm in his right, he encourages farming and builds irrigation works, turning the barren deserts beyond the Great Wall into fertile land in just three years. He forges cannons and trains a new army, whose three thousand black-armored soldiers sweep aside King Chuang’s million-man force.

Atop Shenyang’s walls, Li Xian points his sword at Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang: “A pearl of the steppe? Nothing more than a plaything in my hand!” In the Golden Throne Hall, he tosses down Dorgon’s broken sword: “Your Majesty, wherever my blade points is land beneath the sun and moon!”

After ten years of blood and iron, Li Xian’s black banners fly across the entire Ming realm. A lament comes from the Forbidden City: “My lord Li... please stop!” Chongzhen gazes at the map, trembling. From Fusang in the east to Persia in the west, the Southern Seas in the south, and the lands of the Rosh in the north, the Ming realm has expanded so far that there is nowhere left to conquer!

And the God of Slaughter who emerged from the flames of war on the frontier wipes the blood from his sword and says, “Your Majesty, it’s time to change the era name.”
