Chen Wang's Movement Method were like those of a ghost, and his True Qi was extremely violent, like a great river flowing endlessly.

He accurately blasted the little Spider Demon one by one.

He moved swiftly through the crowd, his Movement Method as fluid as the wind.

The elder from the West Mountain Gate only felt a blur before his eyes, and the young man swept past him.

Even with his eyesight, he couldn't keep up with his speed.

He couldn't help but gasp, "Just who is this young man?"

Gongsun Hou's gaze was also drawn to Chen Wang at this moment, but just as he relaxed slightly, a sharp claw suddenly seemed to appear behind him! Swoosh! The True Qi on his back was pierced, and blood immediately flowed freely!

It was the Mist Woman who made the move, ambushing him from within the mist.

Gongsun Hou was startled and turned to face the enemy.

But his martial arts intuition was giving him a frantic warning that other Mist Woman were attacking him from both sides.

Gongsun Hou sighed inwardly, "My life is over!"

But the next moment, the young man returned, striking the void with his palm, unleashing a burst of violent True Qi! Boom!

A loud bang was followed by screams echoing through the void, which quickly disappeared!

The Mist Woman got blown to bits!

These martial artists couldn't see the Mist Woman, but Chen Wang could. This was far better than the Movement Method; his spiritual eyes saw her clearly.

The Mist Woman moved extremely slowly in his eyes, but martial artists could only lock onto them by feeling, not by seeing them precisely. Therefore, the Mist Woman's alertness was not high.

After the Mist Woman was destroyed, her form reformed.

A deafening roar followed immediately as Chen Wang blasted the other Mist Woman maiden to pieces! Gongsun Hou was shocked, "Such domineering True Qi!"

The two Mist Woman returned and reformed their forms.

In Chen Wang's eyes, they were semi-transparent, completely naked, and transformed into the form of women.

However, the lower half of the body was still shrouded in mist.

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow. "It's somewhat like Aladdin's Lamp."

At this moment, he smashed the Spider Demon one by one.

After the original Spider Demon died completely, the little Spider Demon it belonged to also exploded, leaving it with no chance of recovery.

At this moment, Chen Wang felt a special aura. His body crackled and popped, and his Qi and Blood became strong again.

His inner True Qi was extremely violent, and at this moment he seemed like a celestial deity, slaying many evil spirits with a wave of his hand.

Gongsun Hou exclaimed, "Young master, you are truly righteous!"

In times of crisis, this young master set aside sectarian prejudices and traveled to various places to rescue people and kill powerful enemies in the midst of danger. His magnanimity is truly admirable!

He respectfully addressed Chen Wang as "Young Master" and admired him greatly.

Not only him, but also Xiao Jun, the young man from the Demon Slaying Division, was the same.

Upon hearing this, Chen Wang thought to himself, "No, that's too polite of me."

He was just trying to steal the monsters...

The Spider Demon was killed, and the Rotten Corpse were not particularly dangerous.

Chen Wang glanced around and saw that there were three Mist Woman hiding in the void. They were gathered together and looked at him with some fear.

Whoosh! Chen Wang's Divine Sense shot out from between his eyebrows, transforming into a sharp sword that slashed at one of the Mist Woman! The Mist Woman shattered once again with a bang.

But Chen Wang could sense that she would soon recover completely.

Chen Wang asked in a deep voice, "How do we kill the monsters in this fog?"

Gongsun Hou of the Demon Suppression Division said, "The only way to deal with the Mist Woman is to dispel the mist; there is no obvious way to kill her!"

Chen Wang turned his head and raised an eyebrow, saying, "There's no clear way to kill them?"

Gongsun Hou nodded. "We have no choice but to retreat first!"

Chen Wang nodded slightly. "That's the only way."

His inner True Qi surged, and a howling wind instantly dispersed the mist around him.

At least the martial artists on the surrounding cliffs could see it clearly.

The crowd gathered around him.

By this time, many had already died or been injured.

Gongsun Hou shouted, "Get out of this area first, or we'll all be trapped here!"

The Mist Woman is causing trouble; in some places, the fog won't dissipate, eventually forming strange and eerie areas that are a real headache.

Given their level of skill, they are not easy to deal with.

Upon hearing this, everyone withdrew.

After losing the Great Demon's Essence Blood, the rate at which the Rotten Corpse spread outwards slowed considerably, and no new Rotten Corpse were ever born.

However, some are still climbing outwards through the fog.

After everyone quickly retreated, the fog did not spread further and did not envelop them.

Perhaps they were somewhat wary of Chen Wang, or perhaps it was for other reasons.

The crowd was horrified as they stared at the thick fog and the occasional glimpses of decaying Rotten Corpse emerging from it.

This bloody battle has already resulted in significant losses for all factions, including the Demon Suppression Division and the Demon Slaying Division.

Of the young talents who came to evaluate Little Martial Rankings this time, Liang Xu, who carried a long sword, had already died tragically inside. He was killed by the Mist Woman.

A promising young man died here without a sound, and no matter how great his future achievements might have been, it was all irrelevant at this moment.

The people from the Demon Slaying Division and the Demon Suppression Division stayed behind, as did some martial arts sects, to prevent these Rotten Corpse from causing chaos everywhere.

As is customary, the Mist Woman will disappear after a period of time, along with the mist.

If someone reports this, the imperial court will send troops to seal off the surrounding Yandang Mountain area, preventing anyone from entering and avoiding casualties.

The Demon Slaying Division and the Demon Suppression Division were very experienced in handling this matter and already had established procedures.

Gongsun Hou and Xiao Jun were both in front of Chen Wang at this time, discussing important matters.

"Young Master Chen seems to be cultivating the Great Sun True Qi. I wonder what his relationship is with Ning Huaian?"

Gongsun Hou asked.

Chen Wang asked, "Do you know Senior Ning?"

Gongsun Hou said, "Elder Ning has joined forces with us several times before, but he is stubborn and unwilling to join the Demon Suppression Division."

Chen Wang nodded. "I learned the Five Elements Fist from him."

Gongsun Hou said, "So you are Elder Ning's disciple. No wonder you are so outstanding!"

Chen Wang looked at the mist and said, "Isn't this Mist Woman difficult to deal with? Even the Demon Suppression Division can't do anything about her?"

Gongsun Hou shook his head.

"There isn't a good way, otherwise the demon chaos would have been quelled long ago. We could have killed them by throwing human lives at them. We figured out the characteristics of the demons little by little, and some of them are still difficult to solve."

Chen Wang was also somewhat moved.

Lord Gongsun asked, "Young Master Chen, what about the Female Garden?"

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow and asked, "The Female Garden?"

Gongsun Hou smiled slightly, "It's that naked woman you mentioned."

Chen Wang laughed and said, "Who knows? That woman was fierce and chased me very closely. I barely managed to get rid of her before turning back."

Gongsun Hou had no doubts. Female Garden's strength was extraordinary; only a Martial Saint, who was a whole realm higher than her, could deal with her.

Although Chen Wang's cultivation was not bad, he was not yet at the Martial Saint realm. His ability to escape was already outstanding.

Gongsun Hou said solemnly, "Fortunately, Young Master Chen intervened this time. Otherwise, with so many experts ambushed here by the Sky Demon Alliance, who knows what kind of trouble they would have caused, and even evacuation would have been a problem."

Chen Wang said in a serious tone:

"I am irreconcilably opposed to demons."

Gongsun Hou said, "Well said! Demons and humans are irreconcilable enemies, like fire and water. This time, the emergence of the Great Demon's Essence Blood attracted many experts, and a large number of them were lost, which is really a pity. This was all the strength of the human race!"

Chen Wang chimed in, "That's right!"

Gongsun Hou said, "With the Female Garden here, the Sky Demon Alliance probably already obtained the Great Demon's Essence Blood. Spreading the news was just a smokescreen. Now the Great Demon's Essence Blood should have been taken away by the Sky Demon Alliance. What a pity."

Chen Wang was completely convinced and cupped his hands in respect, saying, "Lord Gongsun's insight is indeed profound."

Gongsun Hou said, "You may call me by my name. You saved my life, and I have not yet thanked you!"

Chen Wang waved his hand.

Xiao Jun wanted to interject, but he was cold-hearted and not nearly as approachable and sociable as Gongsun Hou.

Chen Wang sighed, "In my opinion, this Great Demon's Essence Blood is a malevolent and evil thing. Even if we obtain it, it will be an ominous object."

After saying that, Chen Wang shook his head again, seemingly unconcerned and deeply averse to it.

Gongsun Hou said, "Young Master Chen said makes some sense. However, the fact that refining the Great Demon's Essence Blood can enhance a martial artist's strength and greatly improve their power is no exaggeration. Otherwise, it wouldn't have attracted so many experts to compete for it."

Chen Wang sighed as he saw how confidently he spoke.

"Martial artists should hone themselves, cultivate their True Qi, strengthen their physique, and refine their martial arts skills, taking one step at a time. Relying on external things will only limit their achievements."

Gongsun Hou's expression hardened, and he exchanged a glance with Xiao Jun, saying, "I have learned much, young master, your insight is profound!"

This further dispelled their suspicions about Chen Wang.

However, with that Female Garden, they originally thought that Chen Wang wouldn't be able to collect the Great Demon's Essence Blood.

Gongsun Hou exclaimed, "Young Master Young Master Chen so young yet possesses such insight; no wonder his martial arts cultivation is so formidable."

Chen Wang's words just now were pure boasting. He actually wanted to rely on external aids. Without external aids, how could he break through the realm so quickly?

Upon hearing this, he simply smiled faintly and said, "You flatter me, sir."

In fact, Gongsun Hou was really overpraising him.

Chen Wang returned to the city and circled around, scanning with his Divine Sense. He found that no one was following him.

However, he did not return to the Xu Family. Instead, he found a secluded place and used the Bronze Gate to return to the world of cultivation.

He had previously found a secluded mountain in the world of cultivation and built a temporary cave abode.

After returning here and checking, there was no sign of any outsiders coming.

"Let's explore this Martial Dao World first, dig deep into its resources, and then it won't be too late to go to the Western Continent."

Chen Wang thought to himself.

He remains in the Northern Lands borderlands.

There are many restrictions and illusions outside the cave abode, making it difficult for ordinary people to find.

After all, he was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

At this moment, Chen Wang took out the gourd, then chanted a spell and removed the Talisman Paper on it, and immediately a red light shone through!

The Great Demon's Essence Blood possessed extraordinary power, Chen Wang could vaguely sense that it seemed poised to break through the gourd.

This gourd was originally used to store water, but the craftsmanship was quite extraordinary. However, it wasn't made of particularly high-quality materials.

Chen Wang removed several Talisman Paper in succession, and the light from the gourd became even more radiant.

Chen Wang turned the gourd upside down, recited the Mnemonic, and the Great Demon's Essence Blood inside the gourd flowed out.

Hiss! A deep pit appeared on the ground, and a powerful aura emanated from it, giving people a sense of dread! Even Chen Wang felt his scalp tingle at this moment.

After the Great Demon's Essence Blood onto the ground, it quickly gathered, creating a deep pit that corroded even the hard rock.

Chen Wang thought to himself, "No wonder there was a blood pool earlier."

The cave abode was filled with Yao Qi, which constantly assaulted Chen Wang's soul.

Chen Wang quickly practiced the Niwan Preserving Truth Art to calm his mind.

"Although the Yao Qi is strong, it does not mean that the Essence Blood itself is aggressive. It's just that the demon in life was extremely extraordinary and was exceptionally powerful and somewhat terrifying while alive."

Chen Wang analyzed the situation calmly.

At this moment, the Great Demon's Essence Blood was boiling; there must have been some kind of restriction that suppressed its power.

Now it is released without reservation, and the air becomes scorching hot with rolling heat waves.

Chen Wang immediately took out several Array Flag to seal the surrounding area.

The Taiyi Evil Purging Array! These Array Flag were obtained from Dragon Head Mountain, and they should be sufficient to temporarily suppress the aura of this Great Demon's Essence Blood.

Chen Wang used his Divine Sense to perceive the subtle changes in the Essence Blood.

The fact that this Essence Blood could not be collected into the Storage Artifact proves that it is a living being.

Chen Wang probed into it with his Divine Sense, and it took him almost half a day to finally figure out the problem with the Great Demon's Essence Blood.

"It is a living thing, but it is not a living thing, because this thing is too active and contains Yao Qi. Those martial artists did not refine it correctly. They may have already turned themselves into half-human, half-demon beings," Chen Wang thought to himself.

Chen Wang was proficient in alchemy and was very knowledgeable about exploring various materials.

At this point, the composition of the Great Demon's Essence Blood was finally understood: it contained some of the great demon's aura from its previous life, as well as some of its active properties.

"If it's a martial artist, they can only absorb it by force, but they will be affected by the changes in this Essence Blood, and their State of Mind will be affected. Over time, there is also a risk of losing control." Chen Wang shook his head.

He was a cultivator and an Alchemist, so naturally he had a way to solve this problem.

After pondering for a long time, Chen Wang decided to first refine the Evil Qi in the Essence Blood, then refine all the active energy in the Essence Blood, and then take it together with the evil-repelling pill, the Evil-Transforming Pill, etc., which would be beneficial to the human body.

Let's do it!

Chen Wang had already made up his mind. He took out a Pill Furnace, put the Great Demon's Essence Blood into it, and then activated the true fire.

His true fire was extremely domineering. The Little Fire God's ability allowed him to control the true fire at will, making him much more powerful than ordinary cultivators.

Because it's not orthodox alchemy, it only involves refining the impurities from the Essence Blood, like purification.

Chen Wang skillfully put the medicinal herbs into the mixture one by one, and then refined them. It took him a lot of effort to completely refine them and calm the situation down.

"This Essence Blood itself contains great power. When combined with the Evil-Repelling Pill, it can be directly refined into a Qi and Qi and Blood Pill to strengthen the body."

Chen Wang pondered for a moment.

At this point, the Yao Qi had been completely eliminated. What was a problem that was difficult to solve in the Martial Dao World could be solved in the Cultivation World with just a Gao Ming Alchemist, or even less.

However, Chen Wang thought for a moment, "There is also an organization called the Pill Sect in the Martial Dao World. I wonder how good their alchemy skills are, and whether they can solve the problem of the aftereffects of demon Essence Blood?"

The thought flashed through his mind.

Soon, Chen Wang added one medicinal herb after another and successfully refined the Qi and Blood Pill.

A batch of Qi and Blood Pill was poured out, its color reddish-brown, like precious jade. It contained extremely powerful energy, and there were twelve pills in total, each one terrifying.

"It's finally done!"

A look of joy appeared in Chen Wang's eyes!
