Chapter 1662
Vajra Demon Rock Flower Vajra Demon Rock Bee
Then, Ling Pengyun withdrew the Netherworld Domain and other trapping techniques.
Immediately afterwards, he and the other late-stage Nascent Soul experts turned their gaze to the ordinary battlefield below.
The fighting is still raging there today.
Countless demonic and righteous forces clashed together.
Numerous methods emerged one after another, colliding and creating a deafening roar.
There was also a large amount of spiritual or magical energy spreading in all directions.
Countless specks of dust were kicked up.
Suddenly, yellow sand filled the air all around.
Moreover, even though both the righteous and demonic factions had set up various defensive formations to protect their armies, they couldn't withstand the overwhelming ferocity of the situation.
Every now and then, the light screens erected by the battle formations would be blasted open, causing a large number of attacks to pour into the armies of all sides through the gaps.
As a result, countless people, whether righteous or demonic, die tragically every moment.
A pungent, thick smell of blood gradually emerged and spread in all directions.
The somber atmosphere here intensified.
Fortunately, the righteous Cangxuan lineage, with its strong foundation in cultivators and battle formations, has always maintained an absolute advantage, resulting in relatively few casualties.
To this day, only millions of cultivators have perished.
Tens of millions of demonic cultivators under the command of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect perished.
After all, most of those demonic cultivators were just there to make up the numbers; their cultivation levels were not high, mostly in the early stages of Qi Refining.
In addition, Yan Siyi, Ling Chengxia, and Ling Chengmie, along with their mother and son, knew that now was the best time to make their mark.
They then mustered all their strength to kill the demonic cultivators.
Moreover, since they were blood relatives, they always cooperated in slaying the demon.
In addition, their strength is extraordinary.
Their achievements were quite remarkable.
In just a few hours, they worked together to kill three early-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivators and one mid-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivator.
"Madam works quite well with Cheng Xia and Cheng Mie."
"The current situation is not too bad."
"However, if this battle continues, the casualties among the cultivators under our Cangxuan lineage will likely continue to increase."
"This is not a good thing. Let's lend them a hand."
Ling Pengyun suggested.
"That's certainly the right thing to do. After all, this would quickly quell the major battle below and prevent any unrest from occurring."
Ancestor Xinghai strongly agreed.
Master Zhengyuan and Elder Xingqing also largely agreed.
Then, the four of them immediately took action and charged into the army under the command of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect.
Their strength was immense, and they also had the powerful Cangxuan army to assist them.
They seemed to possess an invincible force, directly slaughtering everyone in the demonic army, with no demonic cultivator able to resist them.
Even the remaining ordinary early and mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators within the demonic army couldn't withstand the onslaught and could only barely cling to life.
The entire situation immediately became one-sided.
At this moment, the demonic army belatedly realized that the auras left behind by the Vajra Demon Lord and the Golden Rock Demon Lord were gradually dissipating.
It turned into a thick aura of death.
"Unexpectedly, even the sect leader and the late-stage Nascent Soul Realm expert, Elder Jin Yan, have fallen into the clutches of the Cangxuan lineage."
"It's over now."
"..."
Countless demonic cultivators were deathly pale, with no hope of survival in sight.
In addition, the entire Jinqian Demon City battlefield was surrounded by some powerful trapping techniques.
Even if they wanted to run away, they couldn't.
As time went on, Ling Pengyun and other powerful figures led the Cangxuan lineage army to surround and kill them.
This conflict was thus truly resolved.
Moreover, everywhere you looked, there were corpses.
The earth was stained crimson with countless drops of blood.
The area around Jinqian Demon City instantly resembled a living hell.
'The number of lives lost in this battle is truly immense.'
Fortunately, I survived.
'...'
Many cultivators under the Cangxuan lineage who witnessed this scene felt their scalps tingle and secretly rejoiced.
"Clean up the battlefield and take stock of the achievements of the cultivators who participated in the battle."
"Also, be careful when collecting the bodies of those fellow Daoists who died in battle, for they did die for my Cangxuan lineage after all."
"Afterwards, my Cangxuan lineage will not only give them a grand funeral, but will also compensate their relatives with a substantial sum of money."
"..."
Ling Pengyun and other powerful figures then spoke up.
'The Cangxuan lineage's move is quite reliable.'
And finally, the time has come to divide the spoils.
The cultivators who participated in the battle were overjoyed.
Immediately, they went to various parts of the battlefield and picked up the valuables and corpses of the demonic cultivators they had killed.
Among them, the corpses handed over to the Cangxuan lineage can serve as proof of military merit.
The rest of the property belonged to them.
In the previous battle, their Cangxuan faction's army had the advantage.
Those who participated seriously generally reaped good results.
Even those who have just entered the late stage of Qi Refining probably gained nearly a thousand spirit stones in battle merits after this battle.
That's why the faces of those cultivators were filled with joy.
During this period, many direct descendants of the Cangxuan lineage maintained order.
In addition, some of the battle formations previously set up by the Cangxuan lineage had the effect of recording images, thus recording the general situation of the previous battle.
Therefore, nothing went wrong during this attempt to gain profits.
In addition, the Cangxuan lineage cultivators carefully collected all the corpses of the righteous cultivators who died tragically in this battle, intending to bring them back to the Cangxuan lineage territory in the future...
……
at the same time.
Deep in the battlefield.
A certain place.
Yan Siyi, Ling Chengxia, and Ling Chengmie, along with the mother and her two children, were dividing up the spoils.
However, their gains were indeed quite substantial.
After their previous battle, they killed several more demonic cultivators.
In total, they killed five early-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivators and two mid-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivators in this battle.
As for ordinary demonic cultivators, they killed countless ones.
Such achievements would rank among the top even within the entire Cangxuan lineage.
In addition, the number of ordinary demonic cultivators they killed was simply too large.
Moreover, the value of those demonic cultivators is relatively low for them.
They were too lazy to personally loot the wealth of those demonic cultivators.
Instead, he entrusted the matter to some trusted direct disciples of the Cangxuan lineage.
They also instructed the disciples to hand over the demonic spiritual items on the demonic cultivators to the family in exchange for battle merits.
However, this single incident caused their battle merits to surge by nearly ten million each, barely enough to exchange for some low-grade fifth-tier spiritual items, which was not bad. But the real windfall came from the profits gained by the seven Nascent Soul demon cultivators.
Those seven demonic cultivators were, after all, from the Vajra Demon Rock Sect, and held high positions within the sect.
Their families were relatively well-off, possessing at least one or two magical treasures of the same level, as well as some high-level magical spiritual objects, and so on.
In total, they possessed over a dozen fifth-tier magical treasures...
Such spiritual objects are extremely valuable.
Yan Siyi and her two children made a fortune from this.
"In this way, I can speed up my progress in breaking through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm by gathering high-level Nascent Soul spiritual items."
'And if this succeeds, I can finally catch up with my husband.'
'If my husband encounters any trouble in the future, I can offer some assistance.'
Yan Siyi looked at her share of the spoils, her eyes gleaming.
'The speed at which profits are gained through killing is indeed rapid.'
'It's a pity that there are so few Nascent Soul stage demon cultivators here, while my Cangxuan lineage has many other powerful individuals.'
'Not enough to kill.'
'Otherwise, my mother, Cheng, and our clan's enemy would have gained much more.'
Ling Pengyun's eldest son, Ling Chengxia, was quite satisfied with the results.
But when he thought about how much energy he still had left, he felt a little regretful.
With this gain, I estimate that I can quickly gather not only the resources needed to reach the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
"Furthermore, I could try to find my father to reforge some of the fifth-tier low- and mid-grade magic treasures I acquired into righteous spiritual treasures and give them to my spirit beasts."
"In this way, their strength could increase dramatically."
'...'
Seeing that his harvest was considerable, Beast Tamer Ling Chengmie couldn't help but glance at the two early-stage Nascent Soul Rock Sky-Shattering Turtles and the Blazing Flood Dragon beside him, secretly looking forward to the future.
Because of their high cultivation levels, those spirit beasts possessed extraordinary intelligence, and they had already mastered the methods of controlling spirit treasures.
It's just a pity that Ling Chengmie always needed to strengthen his own cultivation and so on.
In addition, raising those spirit beasts requires a lot of resources.
He didn't have much wealth.
At most, those spirit beasts don't possess any powerful fifth-tier spirit treasures; they only have some rudimentary forms of Nascent Soul spirit treasures.
This also makes it difficult for them to fully utilize their strength, forcing them to rely on some innate abilities to fight enemies.
However, if one has the assistance of a fifth-tier spiritual treasure, then it's a different story.
Afterwards, Ling Chengmie immediately took the magical treasures he had acquired and went to find his father, Ling Pengyun, and briefly explained the situation.
In addition, he, Yan Siyi, and Ling Chengxia each gave the Nascent Soul cultivators they had obtained to Ling Pengyun, hoping to get his help to hand them over to the Star Sea Ancestor to be refined into special spiritual objects.
"The ancestor shouldn't refuse the matter of refining special spiritual items. I'll take care of it later."
"The matter of reforging the magic weapon is relatively simple for me now, so I agree to it."
"Furthermore, given that you, Cheng Mie, did a good job with this construction, I'll cover the materials for recasting those magical treasures."
"Just wait for those magical treasures to be reforged."
Seeing that the magical treasures were all of good quality and of low to mid-grade fifth rank, making them very easy to reforge, Ling Pengyun immediately agreed to the matter.
"Father, you are truly wonderful."
"Thank you so much for this."
"..."
Ling Chengmie and the others were immediately delighted and thanked him profusely.
They also gave some of the unusual gadgets they had acquired to Ling Pengyun.
This made Ling Pengyun's face even happier.
After chatting for a few more minutes, the family, along with Star Sea Ancestor and other powerful figures, entered the massive Golden Qian Demon City.
Although the place was extremely damaged due to the previous battle, with collapsed houses everywhere and a scene of utter devastation.
But the demonic veins here remain unharmed.
The demonic energy here remains strong, making it a truly precious place.
As the group ventured deeper into the area, the demonic energy became increasingly concentrated.
Finally, they entered the core area in the very center of the Golden Qian Demon City, the "Golden Qian Small Mountain Range".
Normally, this place is shrouded by the protective formation of the Golden Qian Demon City, making it impossible for ordinary people to enter.
But now, that formation has been broken after all.
Getting inside is incredibly easy.
In addition, all the demonic energy in the city originates from this place, which contains many demonic veins, including a rare fifth-order high-grade demonic vein.
The demonic energy here has reached its peak, enough to supply at least ten million demonic cultivators for simultaneous secluded cultivation.
Moreover, the Vajra Demon Rock Sect attaches great importance to this place.
They managed this place very well, and a large number of demonic spiritual plants were planted in the demonic veins of various places.
There are even a large number of immature fifth-tier "Vajra Demon Rock Flowers" and a special batch of fifth-tier "Vajra Demon Rock Bees" planted here.
Those rock bees were only the size of a fist, and their bodies were black and gold, making them particularly strange.
Moreover, although their cultivation level is high, their actual strength is extremely average.
However, they are extremely good at collecting honey.
Most importantly, they are symbiotic with the Vajra Demon Rock Flower.
Their origins are very similar to those of the Vajra Demon Rock Flower, and they can thrive by relying on the power of the pollen produced by the Vajra Demon Rock Flower.
Without this pollen, their growth rate would be extremely slow.
In addition, they can also use the pollen of the Vajra Demon Rock Flower to condense a special magical body-refining treasure called "Vajra Demon Rock Honey".
Once taken, physical progress will become extremely rapid.
The early ancestors of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect relied on the Vajra Demon Rock Bee and the Vajra Demon Rock Flower to gain a foothold in the chaotic Western Demon Realm of the Heavenly River Realm.
And through countless resources, they devoted themselves to cultivating the Vajra Demon Rock Bee and the Vajra Demon Rock Flower.
Ultimately, this created the formidable Vajra Demon Rock Sect.
It's even possible that, in a few hundred thousand years, it might possess the foundation to cultivate a Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of their cultivation.
Unfortunately, time waits for no one.
Moreover, the Vajra Demon Rock Bees and Vajra Demon Rock Flowers that they had painstakingly cultivated in the Golden Qian Demon City would also fall into the hands of the Cangxuan lineage.
The two treasures were indeed of extraordinary value, and Ling Pengyun and the others were extremely tempted.
They immediately started pollinating.
In the end, Ling Pengyun obtained three fifth-grade high-quality Vajra Demon Rock Bees and three acres of fifth-grade high-quality Vajra Demon Rock Flowers.
It is said that a single Vajra Demon Rock Bee can manage an acre of demon flowers of the same level.
Furthermore, it can produce one or two ounces of fifth-grade high-quality magic honey each year.
This magical honey is highly effective, with each ounce being comparable to the best physical cultivation resources of the same level.
Therefore, the potential profits from the three-headed bee and the three-acre flower are considerable.
'But that's not enough for me.'
Ling Pengyun's eyes lit up as he looked at the magical flowers and bees he had been allocated.
After all, he also possessed knowledge of body cultivation, and his level of body cultivation was not weak.
He knew that to advance to a higher level in body cultivation, one needed enormous resources.
Fortunately, this Golden Qian Demon City is just one of the four border demonic territories of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect.
Under these circumstances, he became extremely interested in the other three border demonic lands of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect, as well as its most core mountain gate.
The same applies to powerful figures like the Star Sea Ancestor.
They immediately ordered their army to take a quick rest.
The following day, some wounded cultivators and powerful warriors were left behind to guard Jinqian Demon City.
They then had countless other cultivators board the massive Azure Profound Flying Ship, and like a mighty torrent, they surged towards the other treasure lands of the Vajra Demon Rock Sect. (End of Chapter)
