Chapter 413: Chapter 234: Strength Advances, Ten Thousand Demon Sect
Translator: 549690339
The Fierce Ghost Sect was destroyed overnight, with most traces obliterated and the valuable treasures within the sect looted. The only thing that remained relatively intact was the Book Collection Pavilion, which housed various cultivation techniques.
The Demon Suppression Army had the intention of collecting the variety of martial arts and cultivation techniques in addition to eradicating unstable elements of the human race when exterminating the Hundred Sects.
Although no other resources were seized this time, the harvest could still be considered fruitful.
Lu Yun also checked the Fierce Ghost Sect’s cultivation techniques. There were only two that could be practiced to reach the Rune Seed Realm – the Ten Thousand Ghost Scripture and the Earth-darkMind Scripture.
Both of these techniques were incompatible with the Pure Yang Martial Arts Canon, so Lu Yun didn’t collect them. Instead, he ordered Qing Hou to place them in the Treasure Hall of the 18th battleship.
In addition, after a day of recuperation, Lu Yun consumed another 20,000 energy points to increase the completion level of the Golden Body Episode to 10%, adding another five Law Runes.
With the initial five Law Runes, there were now ten in total.
As the number of Law Runes increased, the total amount of Pure Yang Strong
Origin decreased.
Law Runes were formed by condensing one’s physical body and Pure Yang
Strong Origin into runes.
After leveraging the laws, they would fuse with each other and form the powerful diamond-shaped Law Runes.
The power contained within the Law Runes could be referred to as divine power, which was far superior to True Origin.
Once one entered the Rune Seed Realm, the more runes that were engraved on
the Rune, the more terrifying the divine power would be.
Of course, that was a matter for the future.
Standing on the battleship and watching the ruined mountains getting farther away, Lu Yun felt a twinge of regret.
He had hoped that by participating in the extermination war, he would be able to acquire a considerable fortune, or even a priceless treasure like the one
found in Wei Zongcheng.
However, someone had been a step ahead of him.
At a mountain range millions of miles away from the Fierce Ghost Sect.
A young man in a black robe sat cross-legged, surrounded by black runes. He
had an evil but handsome face.
This person was Han Feng, who had escaped from Lu Yun’s hands using a Spatial Talisman a few days prior.
At this moment, three powers were intertwining within him – the power of Extreme Yang, the power of destruction, and the power of evil. His eyes were tightly closed, and his body trembled from time to time, as if he were suffering from pain.
An hour later, unable to bear the pain any longer, he took out a bottle and poured out a drop of blood containing the ultimate evil aura. After swallowing it, the evil power began to grow stronger, eventually suppressing the other two forces.
As time went on, the powers of Extreme Yang and destruction gradually
subsided.
The surrounding environment was no longer as violent as before but was now shrouded in a strange silence.
Another hour passed, and the young man in the black robe finally opened his eyes slowly.
“Not only did he severely injure me, but he also forced me to waste a Spatial Talisman and a drop of Extreme Yin Blood. I swear to take revenge,” he said, now in a terrible mood.
He had initially planned to absorb the thousands of martial artists from the Fierce Ghost Sect and the tens of thousands of people from Westward City to directly reach the peak of the Rune Seed Realm.
However, against all odds, he had come across a martial artist at the Golden
Body Realm.
A measly Golden Body Realm martial artist, no matter how talented, should not have been a threat to him.
But after fighting for a while, this Golden Body Realm martial artist had unleashed a power even greater than his own.
Neither his Abyss Prison divine ability nor his Yin Spirit Banner could trap the opponent.
As a result, he wanted to retreat right away.
However, the adversary persisted and not only injured him severely but also forced him to waste a Spatial Talisman to escape.
Surely, he must avenge this hatred, or else it would undermine his dignity as a Demon Venerable.
It was at this moment that he sensed a faint power emerging from his wounded flesh and then rapidly growing stronger, transforming into a surge of vitality that soon repaired his broken body.
Eventually, even his entire aura was enhanced, instantly reaching the peak of the late-stage Rune Seed Realm.
Sensing this powerful aura, the young man in the black robe revealed a sinister smile in his dark eyes.
“I didn’t expect that being injured would actually help me overcome the last barriers between my body and soul, allowing them to fully fuse as one. In that case, I should thank that kid.”
“However, can you withstand my gratitude?
He could sense that after the complete integration of his soul and body, his strength had increased even further.
If they fought again, he definitely wouldn’t be the one trying to flee in despair.
“I don’t know which city this is, but my current objective is still to recover my strength. Otherwise, if I encounter even stronger martial artists, I still won’t be able to cope.”
With that, Han Feng flew out of the mountain range in search of another human city.
On a vast plain, a city stood tall with its high walls engraved with three fluttering characters: ‘South Valley City.’
About three times the size of Westward City, South Valley City bustled with noise, and lights filled the streets, creating a lively scene.
Suddenly, a black light appeared in the sky above the city and hid itself within the high clouds.
“This city has more than half a million people and should have quite a few martial artists. If I can completely devour them all, even if it doesn’t help me recover to the Golden Core Realm, it should be more than enough to reach the peak of the Rune Seed Realm,” said Han Feng, greed flickering in his eyes as he gazed at the bustling city below.
However, having learned from his previous mistake, he was now much more cautious and didn’t make a move right away.
