Slaying the Old Devil, Dividing the Treasures

The sun is falling, its momentum unstoppable.

A vast and incomparable Pure Yang light crashed down, actually evaporating the Myriad Spirits Blood Cloud into wisps of green smoke.

Black Fiend Devil Lord was no match for True Lord Haoran to begin with, and was besieged by the crowd. He had no way to avoid this attack and his physical body was shattered on the spot. Only his Nascent Soul escaped and fled frantically towards the Demon Spring.

"Where do you think you're going?"

True Lord Haoran sneered, and the Haoran Heavenly Sword in his hand transformed into lightning and shot down, actually deflecting all kinds of Demon Treasure and tearing his Nascent Soul into pieces on the spot.

Only then did everyone come to their senses. Chen Nianzhi looked at the vast, Vast Righteous Sun that had vanished into nothingness and said, "The grade of this Divine Ability has probably reached the Half-Step Pure Yang Divine Ability realm."

Half-Step Pure Yang Divine Ability is extremely rare. Generally, only those who have reached the Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm or are at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection stage can successfully cultivate it.

The fact that True Lord Haoran created such amazing supernatural Divine Ability demonstrates the extent of his comprehension and talent.

After slaying the Black Fiend Devil Lord, True Lord Haoran leaped into the location of the Demon Spring Demon Spring and began to suppress its power.

Seeing this, Chen Nianzhi followed. This Demon Spring spring was of the Tier 5 Upper Grade, and the power it contained was enough to withstand the attack of a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator. It was unlikely that True Lord Haoran alone could destroy it.

Fortunately, with the full assistance of Chen Nianzhi and others, they were finally able to forcibly destroy the Demon Spring.

After destroying the Demon Spring, three Star Fragment flew out from it. True Lord Haoran caught them in his hand and then handed them to Chen Nianzhi, saying, "This is for you."

Chen Nianzhi took the Star Fragment and said, "Let's deal with the Devil Cultivator first before distributing them."

With more than a dozen Human Race Nascent Soul freeing up their hands, the Devil Cultivator of Black Fiend Demon Ridge were immediately annihilated.

In just a short while, they had routed the Devil Cultivator in Demon Ridge. The Human Race cultivators pursued them relentlessly, and only a very few Devil Cultivator managed to escape.

When the war ended, all the True Lord gathered at the Demon Spring in Black Fiend Demon Ridge, and each of them showed a smile.

True Lord Haoran glanced at Chen Nianzhi, his expression somewhat grave, and asked, "How are your injuries?"

"It's not serious; it will only take about ten years of rest and recuperation."

Chen Nianzhi said with a smile, "At his level and combat power, even with the Black Devil Lord's cultivation, it would be impossible for him to be seriously injured in just one or two moves."

His injuries were not serious; he only needs a few years of rest to recover and it won't affect his combat effectiveness much.

True Lord Haoran nodded and handed him a Tier 5 healing pill. "This Rebirth Pill is very beneficial for healing. Taking it will save you some healing time."

Thank you.

Chen Nianzhi put the pill away. With this pill in hand, his injury wouldn't delay his cultivation too much.

Seeing that Chen Nianzhi had accepted the pills, True Lord Haoran turned to the crowd and said with a solemn expression, "In this battle, we lost a total of 50,000 cultivators, and hundreds of thousands more suffered severe damage due to over-activating the Myriad Immortals Demon-Subduing Formation."

"I wonder if the supplies we've prepared are enough for compensation and rewards?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the group tightened slightly, and they couldn't help but look at Chen Changxuan, who was currently in charge of the work of tallying battle losses and supplies.

Seeing the gazes of the group, Chen Changxuan pondered for a moment before speaking, "The seized supplies haven't been fully tallied yet, but most of the treasures in the hands of the Devil Cultivator are useless to us."

"Therefore, I estimate that the compensation will be more than enough, but the rewards may not be sufficient, and we may have to lose a considerable amount of Spirit Stone."

Everyone nodded in agreement, Chen Nianzhi then said, "After we killed several Black Fiend Old Devil, we also seized some spoils. Let's use some of them as rewards."

Upon hearing this, all the True Lord smiled. True Lord Haoran flicked his sleeve and released a list, then said, "These are the high-level spiritual items we seized. Please take a look."

Chen Nianzhi took the list, her eyes flickered slightly, revealing a hint of joy.

They seized quite a few high-level spiritual items this time, including as many as four Tier 5 Upper Grade Demon Treasure.

That Black Fiend Old Devil possessed seven Higher Vehicle Demon Treasure. Among them, the White Bone Five-Demon Jar and the Hundred Ghosts Diagram were destroyed by Chen Nianzhi, while the Myriad Spirits Blood Cloud was wiped out by the True Lord Haoran.

The remaining four Higher Vehicle Demon Treasure are the Black Fiend Mountain-Splitting Axe, the Black Fiend Demon Banner, the Scarlet Phoenix Furnace, and the Nether Soul Demon Awl.

Among the several Demon Treasure, the Black Fiend Demon Banner is a pure example of tacit understanding; its materials are all extremely evil, making it unusable and forcing its destruction.

The Black Fiend Mountain-Splitting Axe was forged from Nether Mystic Black Iron. Although it was Demon Treasure, it could be melted down to produce materials.

Melting materials with Demon Treasure would result in significant losses, but this Black Fiend Mountain-Splitting Axe uses a large amount of material. After melting it into Nether Mystic Black Iron, it should be sufficient to forge a Tier 5 Upper Grade Spirit Treasure.

The Scarlet Phoenix Furnace was originally a righteous Spirit Treasure, but it was transformed into a Demon Treasure after being infused with demonic energy by the Black Fiend Old Devil. Once the demonic energy is refined, it will return to its pure righteous magical Law Artifact.

The Ghostly Nether Soul Mysterious Iron Nether Soul Mysterious Iron was also extremely evil. Originally, it was Tier 5 spiritual material called Eternal Mystic Iron, but it was refined by Demonic Path cultivators who infused it with the souls of countless wronged people day and night, which greatly increased its power and turned it into the extremely evil Nether Soul Mysterious Iron.

True Lord Haoran glanced at everyone, and after a moment spoke, "These few Demon Treasure need to be refined again if you want to use them, so they are useless to me. You can take them and divide them up."

Everyone was delighted upon hearing this, realizing that True Lord Haoran intended to occupy Black Fiend Demon Ridge, and thus relinquished these benefits.

With this thought in mind, their gazes turned to Chen Nianzhi. Apart from True Lord Haoran, the Chen Clan had contributed the most to this battle, so naturally, he would be the one to make the choice.

Actually, there wasn't much to choose from. Chen Nianzhi looked at the Scarlet Phoenix Furnace and smiled calmly, "This Scarlet Phoenix Furnace is not only good in both offense and defense, but it is also a Higher Vehicle Pill Furnace. I would be impolite to refuse it."

"Really."

Although it was expected, the True Lord still looked somewhat regretful that their most precious treasures had been swapped.

Lingxu Fairy, whose contribution was second only to the Chen Clan, spoke up, saying, "This Black Fiend Mountain-Splitting Axe can be used to smelt Netherworld Mystic Iron. I happen to have connections with the weapon-refining master of the Void Refinement Sect, so I shamelessly took it."

Of the three Higher Vehicle Demon Treasure, two were chosen, leaving only the Nether Soul Demon Awl remaining.

Yan Ziji glanced at the Nether Soul Demon Awl, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't choose it.

This Nether Soul Demon Awl contains too many wronged souls. To reuse it, all the ghostly souls within the Nether Soul Mysterious Iron must be sent into reincarnation. Only then can the Eternal Mystic Iron be obtained again.

However, unless one is a highly virtuous monk, ordinary cultivators simply cannot deliver these wronged souls from suffering. If they were to forcibly refine them, these wronged souls would be scattered and they would likely be tainted with extremely deep karma.
