Slaying Demon Beasts, Enormous Gains

After Ling Pengyun put the rope away, he also put the corpse of the Swamp Crocodile King into a Storage Spirit Bead String with a huge space. Then, he activated the magic Law Artifact and fought his way in and out of the Demon Beast horde. Each time he made a move, he could kill thousands of Demon Beast.

By this time, the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment realm Qi Refining Demon Beast that had been reduced to only 180,000 on the battlefield also realized that the Swamp Crocodile King's aura had dissipated and that it had been killed by a human Golden Core cultivator.

Although those 180,000 Demon Beast were not very intelligent, they were not stupid.

There are Golden Core cultivators of the human race guarding Yan Sun Mountain; if they were to remain, they would surely perish.

Immediately, the group of Demon Beast turned and fled towards the Muddy Swamp Territory.

The Swamp Crocodile King is dead, and Ling Pengyun now considers the Muddy Swamp Territory his own.

Ling Pengyun, a Golden Core True Person, would naturally not allow those 180,000 Demon Beast to enter the vast Muddy Swamp, thus increasing the difficulty for the Ling Clan to develop the Muddy Swamp in the future.

He quickly took out the Magic Treasure Cone Shape- shaped Ling Xiao Flying Boat, and the forty second-tier Cloud Peak Flying Boat, and placed them in the sky. He also removed the Five Elements Return Origin Grand Array that he had set up in the mountains and placed it around the flying boats in the sky.

"Mountain cultivators, quickly follow me onto the flying boat."

After saying this, Ling Pengyun jumped onto the Ling Xiao Flying Boat.

The more than four thousand cultivators stationed in the mountains all understood that the Golden Core Demon King among the group of Demon Beast was dead, and that the group of Demon Beast was a flock of lambs to the slaughter, which was a good opportunity for them to earn battle merits.

These four thousand-plus cultivators would naturally not miss such an opportunity.

These more than four thousand people therefore rushed to board the flying boat.

It's just a pity that those forty Cloud Peak Flying Boat could only carry fifty people.

Forty ships can only carry about two thousand people.

Before long, the forty flying boats were filled with cultivators, but more than two thousand cultivators were still unable to board them.

Although the two thousand-plus cultivators were unwilling to give up and did not want to miss the opportunity to earn battle merits, their speed was simply not fast enough to catch up with the flying boat.

Without the protective array on the flying boat, they would face extreme danger if they went out.

Ling Pengyun didn't want the outside world to spread rumors that Rogue Cultivator expanding the Ling Clan's territory, causing them to suffer heavy reputational damage.

Such a reputation is not good, enough to make many Rogue Cultivator lose trust in the Ling Clan.

To prevent those Rogue Cultivator from wandering around, Ling Pengyun also set up a shadow -Image Recording Restriction in the mountain.

Then, he sternly gave orders to the more than two thousand Rogue Cultivator who had not yet boarded the flying boat.

"You all stay in the mountains. Do not follow me or go out. If I see anyone violate the restrictions I have set up, I will kill them."

After saying this, Ling Pengyun controlled the fleet of flying boats and flew away into the distance.

The flying boats were extremely fast and soon caught up with the 180,000 to 190,000 Demon Beast that were fleeing straight into the Muddy Swamp Territory.

The more than two thousand cultivators on the flying boat also went all out to attack the eighteen or nineteen thousand Demon Beast.

Those Demon Beast were already routed, and had no will to fight; all they knew was to run away.

This also resulted in the Ling Clan family achieving great merit, with many of the Demon Beast on the ground suffering heavy casualties.

Thus began their chase, and the dozen or so miles from Yan Sun Mountain to the Muddy Swamp Territory became the death ground for most of the Demon Beast.

Only tens of thousands of the more intelligent Demon Beast did not follow the main force back to the Muddy Swamp Territory, but scattered and fled into the Autumn Sun Swallow Territory. The massive fleet of flying boats could not disperse to pursue them, and they successfully escaped.

Ling Pengyun and the others still needed to pursue the large force of Demon Beast that had fled into the Muddy Swamp Territory, so they let the tens of thousands of Demon Beast leave.

Post-war.

On the horizon, about half a mile from the Muddy Swamp Territory, aboard the Ling Xiao Flying Boat.

Ling Pengyun looked down at the large group of Demon Beast trying to escape back to the Muddy Swamp Territory. With the last Demon Beast killed, the heavy weight in his heart finally lifted.

Then, he used Sound Amplification Technique and shouted loudly.

"Clean up the battlefield in an orderly manner. The Ling Clan requires you to use the 30% of the Demon Beast corpses you have killed to compensate for the activation of the Ling Clan's Third Rank Array Formation. Afterwards, you must hand them over to the Ling Clan."

This sound, amplified by Sound Amplification Technique, spread throughout the entire fleet of flying boats.

It is the rule in the Cultivation World to hand over 30% of the Demon Beast killed, and the more than 2,000 Rogue Cultivator on the flying boat had no objection.

They all used various Flying Magical Item to land on the ground and began collecting the corpses of the Demon Beast they had killed.

The Ling Clan members on the Ling Xiao Flying Boat used the Image Recording Restriction set up on the Five Elements Return Origin Grand Array around the flying boat group to review the effects of the battle and calculate the number of Demon Beast killed by the Rogue Cultivator, so as to prevent the more than two thousand Rogue Cultivator who were currently plundering the Demon Beast from taking more than their share.

Those two thousand-plus Rogue Cultivator were relatively honest; they behaved well while collecting the Demon Beast corpses and did not embezzle any money.

After the more than two thousand Rogue Cultivator had collected the corpses of the Demon Beast they had killed, Ling Pengyun led the Ling Clan clan to transport the remaining 150,000 Demon Beast corpses on the ground one by one through the flying boat fleet. It took three full days and dozens of trips by Ling Xiao's flying boat fleet to transport all the Demon Beast corpses back to Yan Sun Mountain.

Yan Sun Mountain.

After spending half a day calculating the number of Demon Beast corpses the Ling Clan had collected, Ling Pengqiu was all smiles. He quickly went up to the mountaintop and found Ling Pengyun, who was sitting there in meditation, and spoke to him in detail.

"Eighth Brother, among the Lineage who participated in this battle, Eighth Brother killed the most Demon Beast Demon Beast, a total of 130,000. I killed more than 15,000 Demon Beast. The younger clan members, such as Cheng Xia, had lower cultivation levels and only killed more than 5,000 Demon Beast in total."

"We killed more than 150,000 demonic Demon Beast and obtained their corpses."

"Among the Rogue Cultivator recruited by my Ling Clan, approximately 90,000 Demon Beast were killed in this battle, and 30%, or more than 30,000 Demon Beast corpses, were handed over to my Ling Clan."

"In addition, those Rogue Cultivator also handed over more than 30,000 Demon Beast to their Lineage in exchange for battle merits."

"With the three combined, my Ling Clan has obtained a total of over 211,000 Demon Beast corpses this time."

"Among Qi Refining, the corpses of Demon Beast at the early, middle, late, and perfect Qi Refining stages were more than 126,000, more than 66,000, more than 28,500, and more than 500 respectively."

"Among them, there are more than 650, more than 310, more than 30, and more than 10 Demon Beast corpses at the early, middle, late, and Consummation Realm Foundation Establishment, respectively."

"The corpse of the Golden Core Realm demon king."

"Eighth Brother, this battle has been a great success!"

"Even if these Demon Beast corpses are sold directly, they can fetch at least two hundred Spirit Stone. If our clan's artisans use the materials from those Demon Beast to refine them into spiritual items for sale, these Demon Beast corpses can bring our clan a huge profit of at least four million Spirit Stone."

Upon hearing Ling Pengqiu's statistics, Ling Pengyun's eyes widened in surprise.

In an instant, a look of wild joy appeared on his face.

Four million Spirit Stone is no small amount. If it were on the market, this sum of Spirit Stone could buy at least four "Core Forming Pill" pills, which can increase a cultivator's chances of breaking through to the Golden Core stage by 30%.

With this amount of Spirit Stone, as long as luck is on your side, creating one or two Golden Core cultivators is entirely possible.

"I never imagined that the benefits of destroying the vast majority of the Demon Beast in a Demon Beast Gathering Ground guarded by a Golden Core Demon Beast would be so great."

"Adding the two thousand Spirit Vein in the Muddy Swamp Territory, the benefits that the Lineage can bring are even greater."

"Destroying a Demon Beast Gathering Ground is truly a highly profitable business."

"Back when the Hundred Spirits Sect conquered the Serpent Dragon Lake, they probably made quite a bit of money."

Ling Pengyun pondered for a moment.

The more than 250,000 demonic Demon Beast that he led a group of cultivators to wipe out this time were 99% of the Demon Beast in the Muddy Swamp Territory.

Back then, the Swamp Crocodile King, who was at the Golden Core Realm stage, mobilized so many Demon Beast to launch a full-scale attack on Yan Sun Mountain and seize the Demon Race's Autumn Sun Swallow Territory.

After the initial joy, Ling Pengyun realized that his Lineage now had few skilled individuals, and the number of Demon Beast corpses they had obtained was enormous, which immediately gave him a headache.

Even if the Lineage relied on its skilled artisans and didn't eat or drink, it would still take at least several decades, or even hundreds of years, to refine the materials from the Demon Beast corpses that the Lineage had obtained into spiritual items.

It would take at least a hundred years to sell the batch of spiritual items made from materials from Demon Beast.

After all, the other five major Golden Core sects in the Yan Kingdom have also killed many Demon Beast in the White Cloud Mountain Range and produced a lot of spiritual items through the craftsmen, which flood the market.

The market for Cultivation World in the Yan Kingdom is only so big, so if the Ling Clan wants to sell spiritual items, they naturally need to take it slow and steady.

Under these circumstances, it would take the Ling Clan at least two hundred years to digest these Demon Beast corpses.

Two hundred years is a long time for him, and for the rest of the Ling Clan, it is a lifetime.

The Ling Clan may not seem to need many Spirit Stone now, but if they were to develop the Muddy Swamp Territory where no Golden Core Demon King was stationed and where 99% of the Demon Beast had been wiped out, the amount of spirit materials required to set up formations on the two thousand or so first and Second Rank Spirit Vein in this area would be enormous.

According to Ling Pengyun's estimate, the spiritual materials needed to set up the formation alone would cost at least a million Spirit Stone.

The Ling Clan cannot afford to produce these Spirit Stone now.

Thinking of this, Ling Pengyun sighed helplessly.

The feeling of possessing wealth but being unable to realize it in a short period of time is extremely distressing.

He looked at Ling Pengqiu and began to make arrangements.

"While it's good that the Lineage has obtained a lot of Demon Beast corpses this time, it's also a problem given the current number of people skilled in various arts in the Lineage."

"Among the four thousand Rogue Cultivator in the mountains, are there any skilled in any of the hundred arts?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Pengqiu belatedly realized what Ling Pengyun meant, and he shook his head.

"Eighth Brother, I don't know."

Ling Pengqiu's role in the Lineage has always been similar to that of Ling Pengxing, acting as a protector of the Lineage and rarely participating in the management of Lineage affairs.

Ling Pengyun could understand that such far-sighted arrangements were not prepared in advance.

Then, Ling Pengyun gave the instructions.

"Go and ask quickly. If you find it, leave it in the mountains for now."

After saying this, Ling Pengyun took out two more sheets of white paper and used his spiritual power as a pen to write many words on them.

After writing it down, he put the two sheets of white paper into separate envelopes and handed them to Ling Pengqiu.

"Peng Qiu, also, you have entrusted two reputable independent Rogue Cultivator to deliver these two letters to the Hundred Spirits Sect and the Lineage."

"This is the array plate of the Five Elements Return Origin Grand Array. I have rearranged this array in the mountains. If there are any changes, you can activate the array."

"I need to go to the Muddy Swamp Territory to collect some of its spiritual treasures, so that other forces will not take advantage of the situation and preemptively collect the spiritual treasures after learning that my clan has killed the demon king of the Muddy Swamp Territory and 99% of the Demon Beast there."

In the two letters to the Hundred Spirits Sect and the Lineage, besides recording the great victory over the Demon Beast in the Muddy Swamp and the occupation of the Muddy Swamp, there were also some important arrangements.

For example, in the envelope Ling Pengyun sent to the Hundred Spirits Sect, he also mentioned that Hundred Spirits Sect should arrange a flying boat as soon as possible to transport the mortal clansmen of his Lineage to the Muddy Swamp Territory.

The letter to the Lineage instructed Lineage to cooperate fully with the Hundred Spirits Sect in transporting clansmen, but only half of the clansmen should be transported, to avoid any unforeseen events when the Demon Beast Uprising arrives decades later and the Yan Kingdom's Cultivation World attacks the White Cloud Mountain Range.

Of course, this change is extremely minor.

Otherwise, the other five Yan Kingdom would not have dispatched their mortals to the White Cloud Mountain Range so early on.

These five Golden Core sects are not stupid. Clearly, they have great confidence in officially conquering the entire White Cloud Mountain Range during the next period of Demon Beast Uprising.

And that is indeed the case. Nowadays, the Demon Beast of the White Cloud Mountain Range are completely suppressed by the human race and cannot cause any trouble at all.

After receiving the two letters and the array plate, Ling Pengqiu solemnly addressed Ling Pengyun.

"Eighth Brother, be careful on the road."

Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun smiled, patted Ling Pengqiu on the shoulder, and nodded. "Okay."

After saying this, he transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the Muddy Swamp Territory.

After watching Ling Pengqiu Ling Pengyun leave, Ling Pengqiu also left the Yan Yang Mountain Peak and walked to a large flat area halfway up the mountain.

In recent days, more than 4,000 Rogue Cultivator, who were summoned by the Ling Clan based on their military achievements, have been gathered here.

As soon as Ling Pengqiu arrived, many of the more than four thousand Rogue Cultivator asked Ling Pengqiu when he would fulfill his promise to rent Spirit Vein based on his battle merits.

For a moment, the scene was filled with a cacophony of voices, making it quite noisy.

Ling Pengqiu frowned immediately and roared.

"Quiet!"

The surrounding Rogue Cultivator, who were also quite perceptive, noticed that Ling Pengqiu, an Foundation Establishment Eighth Layer cultivator, looked unwell, and they all stopped asking questions.

Ling Pengqiu's cultivation level was originally at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer. In the past two years, with the help of the ten bottles of hundred-year-old Wood Origin Spirit Water that Ling Pengyun brought back from the Boundless Sea Region Cultivation World, he successfully broke through to the Foundation Establishment Eighth Layer.
