"Heavenly Demon Soul Erosion, you ruthless bitch! The elders of the sect will not let you get away with this when they learn of all this."
Feng Ji's divine soul let out a pained cry. The pure spiritual energy within his soul was rapidly draining away.
Tiny specks of golden liquid were slowly absorbed by Zhang Wan'er.
These golden liquids were exceptionally pure, seemingly possessing a unique power that strengthened Zhang Wan'er's soul, bringing about a degree of transformation.
These golden liquids were none other than the essence condensed from Feng Ji's divine soul.
At this moment, these essences were extracted from Feng Ji's divine soul, and under Zhang Wan'er's manipulation, they slowly flowed into her own soul.
As the essence dwindled, Feng Ji's divine soul became increasingly dim, appearing as though it would completely vanish before long.
In stark contrast to Feng Ji's soul, Zhang Wan'er's soul grew progressively stronger.
Finally, Feng Ji's divine soul was completely devoured, disappearing entirely from this world.
...
After consuming Feng Ji's divine soul, Zhang Wan'er licked her lips in satisfaction, a sinister smile gracing her face like a demon.
"Senior Brother Feng Ji, after living in the demonic path for so many years, don't you understand?"
"In the traditions of the demonic path, a chess piece does not stand up for another piece that holds no value."
"While you were alive, you had value in breaking through to the Core Formation stage, and the sect elders valued and favored you. But once you die, you become worthless, and who would care about a dead you!"
"Moreover, with Lu Yi and Wu Tao, I have two individuals who can take the blame for me, hahahaha..."
As she spoke, Zhang Wan'er's sinister smile deepened.
"However, there are still two bugs that need to be dealt with!"
Zhang Wan'er glanced towards the nearby bushes and suddenly flicked her wrist, sending a shower of black fine sand flying out.
"Hehehe... On your way then."
Black Phosphorus Purple Fire Sand! Explode, explode, explode...
Boom!!!
Under the sunlight, the black sand emitted a strange black glow. In the next moment, that area erupted into a terrifying spectacle of flames, whirlwinds, and poisonous miasma.
As the flames, whirlwinds, and poison surged through the jungle, two dark figures shot out and landed in an open space nearby.
Mere seconds later, the clothes of this male and female inner disciples from the Cold Water True Spirit Sect were already significantly corroded.
Pustules had formed all over their bodies, oozing yellow pus and blood.
...
Black Phosphorus Purple Fire Sand was refined by Zhang Wan'er by mixing special phosphorus sand with ten kinds of potent poisons.
Its power was immense. Upon detonation, it could trigger flames, whirlwinds, and poisonous miasma. Ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators could not survive in this Black Phosphorus Purple Fire Sand.
Even talented cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage would be fortunate to escape with their lives if caught off guard.
...
"Damn that demonic woman, she's disfigured me! I'll kill her!"
The female inner disciple looked at her current ghastly appearance, let out a scream, and a boundless rage surged within her. She lost all reason and was about to rush towards Zhang Wan'er.
The male inner disciple saw this and reached out to stop the impulsive female inner disciple.
The female inner disciple knew that her companion was already considering a retreat and cursed him inwardly as a good-for-nothing.
The male inner disciple bowed slightly to Zhang Wan'er and said, "Senior Sister Zhang, we saw nothing today. Please show mercy and let us go..."
At the male inner disciple's plea for mercy, the female inner disciple's lips moved, but she remained silent.
Having witnessed Zhang Wan'er's madness, cruelty, and terrifying demeanor firsthand, the female inner disciple from the Cold Water True Spirit Sect, now that she had regained her senses, was also a little frightened.
Indeed, risking her life for revenge for her disfigurement was not worth it.
The reason they had followed was simply to see if they could profit from the situation, to benefit from the conflict between others.
Now, Zhang Wan'er's strength far surpassed their imagination, and she was also meticulous and utterly ruthless, which instilled a deep-seated fear in them.
...
"Is that so?"
Zhang Wan'er said dismissively.
"Too bad! You shouldn't have followed!"
Zhang Wan'er then softly whispered.
...
"I'll stall her. You look for an opportunity to attack!"
The male inner disciple's eyes flashed with ferocity. He stepped forward, took out three top-grade defensive magical artifacts from his storage bag, and protected the female inner disciple behind him.
...
The female inner disciple hid behind the male inner disciple and took out two top-grade offensive magical artifacts.
A powerful spiritual energy fluctuation continuously generated around the female inner disciple.
"Interesting, one close combat, one ranged. Truly a good combination!"
Zhang Wan'er chuckled charmingly upon seeing this, and in the next second, she attacked.
...
The sounds of ghosts and demons were fierce and eerie, with cold green light swirling and demonic energy surging.
Half an hour later, Zhang Wan'er was covered in blood. In her left and right hands, she carried two shriveled, ugly heads.
Ever-changing, cunning, and cruel, like a terrifying vixen – this was Zhang Wan'er.
...
The struggles in the cultivation world were iron-blooded and brutal, yet they displayed a unique charm!
Due to Feng Ji's demise, the remaining inner disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect, for their own lives, had united with inner disciples from the Grand Unity Immortal Sect such as Lu Yi, Su You Shi, and Long Ao Po Tian.
Lu Yi, Su You Shi, and Long Ao Po Tian, who were struggling to stand alone, faced the dominant Cold Water True Spirit Sect led by Lu Shaoyou, An Zheng Yi, and Wang Ren. They grudgingly accepted the remaining inner disciples from the Heavenly Demon Sect.
...
Lu Yi gripped the Spring and Autumn Brush in his hand, which emanated an ancient and vast aura, like a jade ritual vessel from the primordial era.
Above Su You Shi's head, more than a dozen formation flags floated, arranged in a Bagua and Five Elements formation.
Long Ao Po Tian wielded the Phoenix Blood Spear, its gleaming tip pointed directly at Lu Shaoyou.
Behind Lu Yi, Su You Shi, and Long Ao Po Tian were the inner disciples of the Grand Unity Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Their opponents were Lu Shaoyou, An Zheng Yi, and Wang Ren, three of the Twelve Great Water Lords.
Lu Shaoyou, An Zheng Yi, and Wang Ren were inner disciples of the Cold Water True Spirit Sect.
...
"Without Feng Ji, the Heavenly Demon Sect is finished..." Da Feng Novel Network
Wang Ren swept his indifferent gaze over Lu Yi, Su You Shi, and Long Ao Po Tian, and said loudly, "Only you remaining from the Grand Unity Immortal Sect..."
Lu Shaoyou continued with a cold sneer, "You are no match."
An Zheng Yi finally added, "Today, your corpses will remain here."
...
"Who lives and who dies is not yet decided, you damn bastards, spewing such nonsense."
Long Ao Po Tian, who already had a short temper, immediately swore upon hearing the words of Lu Shaoyou, An Zheng Yi, and Wang Ren.
Su You Shi used the formation flags above his head and the formation plate in his hand to set up one great formation after another, presiding over them from the center.
The combined might of the inner disciples from the Grand Unity Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect was such that even the inner disciples of the Cold Water True Spirit Sect, led by Lu Shaoyou, An Zheng Yi, and Wang Ren, dared not confront it directly.
To counter the inner disciples of the Cold Water True Spirit Sect led by Lu Shaoyou, An Zheng Yi, and Wang Ren, the inner disciples of both the Grand Unity Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect revealed their trump cards.
After several more days and nights of fierce fighting, the cultivators from the Grand Unity Immortal Sect, the Cold Water True Spirit Sect, and the Heavenly Demon Sect all suffered heavy casualties!
In the end, out of the original four hundred and fifty Foundation Establishment cultivators, only fifty-six survived.
...
After leaving the Sea God's Ruin, disciples of the Grand Unity Immortal Sect such as Wu Tao returned to their three elders and divided their spoils from the Sea God's Ruin according to a three-seven ratio, with over seventy percent going to the sect and less than thirty percent kept for themselves.
Wu Tao's harvest from the Sea God's Ruin was immense, so much so that he found it hard to believe himself and even felt a little uneasy.
However, thinking that a large portion of these spoils had to be handed over to the sect, Wu Tao felt some unwillingness. Yet, he knew this was an opportunity the sect had provided him.
Furthermore, with the most important Primordial Inheritance and the most precious low-grade spiritual treasure, the Purple Conch Illusory Qi Pearl, safely hidden, Wu Tao ceased to dwell on it.
Wu Tao's performance during this trip to the Sea God's Ruin was exceptionally outstanding. Not only did he gain the gratitude and affection of many fellow disciples, but the higher-ups of the Grand Unity Immortal Sect also decided to reward Wu Tao again.
Moreover, there were rumors that a Core Formation inner elder had taken a liking to Wu Tao and wished to take him as a disciple.
Of course, Wu Tao was not overly pleased by this news.
During the five months spent in the Sea God's Ruin, Wu Tao's nerves had been constantly strained, and he had never truly rested.
Now that he had time to relax, Wu Tao naturally stayed in his own cave dwelling to rest for a few days.
Until today, when someone came to visit...
"Wu Tao! Wu Tao!"
"Open the door quickly! Open the door quickly!"
A male voice, sounding extremely loud, came from outside the cave dwelling, allowing Wu Tao to hear it clearly even through the door and formations.
Wu Tao, who was lying on his bed resting, frowned upon hearing the voice. He opened the door of his cave dwelling and deactivated the formations. He then realized it was Long Ao Po Tian and Chang Ping Qian waiting for him outside.
Wu Tao suppressed his helplessness and asked the two grinning individuals, "What business do you two have with me?"
"What other business could we have?"
Long Ao Po Tian looked Wu Tao up and down, then shook his head with a hint of mockery, "Don't you get it? We're here to see you because we have nothing else to do."
"Uh..."
The statement was so truthful that Wu Tao was momentarily speechless, unsure how to respond.
