After a rapid flight, Yang Zhentian and Yang Podi quickly returned to Mount Aermo.
Yang Podi returned to his room alone, preparing to begin studying the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
As for killing the second elder of the Elephant Armor Sect, neither his grandfather nor his maternal grandfather took it seriously at all.
After returning to his room, Yang Podi took out the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and dripped a drop of his blood onto Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
A blue figure suddenly appeared in the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and exerted a tremendous suction force on Yang Podi, seemingly trying to suck Yang Podi's blood.
But suddenly, a huge change occurred. The white bat mark on Yang Podi's body flashed with white light, instantly shaking off the suction force, and then the entire room returned to calm.
In that instant, a blood-red figure seemed to appear in Yang Podi's mind. This figure coldly snorted, "Boy, don't be greedy."
The crimson figure's words seemed devoid of any emotion, yet even this simple statement Yang Podi into a state of utter trembling, both physically and spiritually, as if he were in Asura abyss.
But just a moment later, he seemed to have returned to calm, as if nothing had happened. Even the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud remained quietly in place, seemingly without any change.
However, the chilling feeling he just experienced deeply stung Yang Podi's heart, and it will likely affect him for some time to come.
Yang Podi was utterly bewildered. Judging from the crimson figure just now, it should have been the Asura God, but what did he mean by those words? What did he mean by "don't be greedy"?
Yang Podi carefully reviewed the original novel. Tang San in the original novel also possessed the Divine Slaughter's Domain, but his blood could make the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud recognize its master. Why couldn't it work for him?
With his current strength, he should be stronger than Tang San in the original story. Moreover, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud Mingdu reacted, but the reaction was repelled by an inexplicable force. Could it be that his two Martial Soul both possess the Divine Slaughter's Domain, thus rejecting the Sea God's inheritance?
But that shouldn't be the case. From beginning to end, the Asura God didn't pass on any knowledge to him, so why would he tell him not to be greedy?
After much research, Yang Podi was unable to get the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to recognize him as its master, so he had to give up.
Yang Podi couldn't help but complain inwardly, "What are these two, the Sea God and the Asura God, up to? Who will actually give me the inheritance? It seems like I haven't received anything yet. Isn't this a bit too unfair?"
Meanwhile, in the Divine Realm, within the Asura God Temple of Asura God Temple, a colossal blue figure arrived. This figure was none other than Poseidon, the god of the Sea God. Seated in the main seat of the Asura God Temple was a blood-red figure, none other than the Asura God.
The Sea God seemed furious. " Asura God, what are you doing? I finally found someone who can withstand the Sea God's Heart, how could you intercept him? And this kid has two Martial Soul, how come both of Martial Soul bear the mark of your Asura God's inheritance?"
The Asura God spoke unhurriedly, " Sea God, I can't help what you're saying. Although this kid has two Martial Soul, they are actually one. There is no repulsion between the Martial Soul Martial Soul, and both of Martial Soul are attack Martial Soul. When he obtained my Divine Slaughter's Domain, the Divine Slaughter's Domain actually chose both Martial Soul at the same time."
The Sea God seemed somewhat unwilling. "Since this brat has obtained your Divine Slaughter's Domain, why don't you send down Godly Trial for him?"
The Asura God shook his head. "Although this lad has excellent talent and strength, he is far from meeting the requirements of my inheritance. When he meets my requirements, I will naturally bestow Godly Trial upon him."
Sea God was speechless for a moment. "It's not easy to find such a good prospect, aren't you just wasting talent? And you're just occupying the position without doing anything, not letting me pass on my skills to you."
Yang Podi was worried. He had thought he would get the Sea God's inheritance and go to Sea God Island to train so that he could become a god before Qian Renxue. But he didn't get the inheritance. Instead, he gave up the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower to help the enemy. This was too much of a rip-off.
Although the Spirit Hall's attitude is currently ambiguous, and it seems they have no intention of dealing with the Breaking Clan and the Defense Clan, once the Spirit Hall destroys the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, they will likely gradually turn their attention to your own clan. If you are not strong enough at that time, you will be in trouble.
Yang Podi thought about it for a long time and finally made up his mind. Even if he couldn't get the inheritance himself, he had to make sure that other members of his family could get it, otherwise it would be really troublesome.
Once the final battle of the gods arrives, if no god has yet emerged from within the family, then they are simply at the mercy of others.
Whether the Clear Sky Sect or the Spirit Hall wins, they will probably not let our Breaking Clan off the hook.
About 400 kilometers west of Mount Aermo, a group of people were stealthily making their way; it was Yang Ping'an and his group of seven.
After the recent battle, these seven men had killed all the bandits and Evil mercenaries in the territory. Now, only Black Cloud Stronghold remained, which was the largest bandit gang within a radius of 500 miles.
After eliminating the bandits during this period, the seven seemed to have improved significantly. This improvement wasn't due to an increase in their Soul Power, but rather because their eyes were now filled with killing intent.
During this period, each of the seven people killed at least a hundred people, and even Ye Lingling, who was in charge of the support role, personally killed quite a few people.
Especially during the first murder, there was blood everywhere, including some body parts. In this bloody scene, all three girls vomited all over the ground, seemingly very uncomfortable.
But after a series of battles, the seven men gradually adapted, and their eyes even became more ferocious than those of the bandits.
Especially when Yang Podi said "leave no one alive," everyone initially thought it was no big deal.
However, among these bandits were quite a few elderly people, women, and even children, which made the seven hesitate for a long time.
After all, in their eyes, the elderly and children are innocent, and indiscriminately killing the innocent is not something a Soul Master should do.
At this moment, Yang Ping'an seemed to play a crucial role. He spoke solemnly, "Regardless of whether these people are elderly or children, as family members of the bandits, they enjoy the material resources brought by the bandits, and naturally they must pay the price."
"Moreover, they live in a bandit's den, which means they are bandits themselves. We absolutely cannot show mercy to bandits. Just as our elder brother said, we must leave no bandits alive."
After Yang Ping'an finished speaking, he directly stabbed at the petty thief in front of him, his resolve unwavering.
Seeing this, the others seemed to be spurred on by Yang Ping'an's words, their eyes becoming even more determined and sinister.
In a short period of time, the seven men wiped out several gangs of bandits within a 300-kilometer radius.
Especially during the process of eliminating bandits, the seven of them witnessed all kinds of combat methods and faced all kinds of unexpected situations. Now they can be considered to have been through many battles and emerged from the bloodshed, and their overall strength has improved a lot.
The current target is the last and most powerful group of bandits, who are said to include Soul Emperor among them.
However, the seven men were quite bold, actually sneaking around in an attempt to wipe out this last group of bandits through a surprise attack.
Among the seven, Yang Tianyue, although only at the Soul Ancestor level, possesses a top-grade Head Soul Bone, making her the strongest in terms of detection ability.
The seven's strategy was to sneak in, then have Dugu Yan poison the enemy, and finally, everyone would gang up on the Soul Emperor.
However, just as the seven infiltrated the central location, a sudden change occurred. Countless flames suddenly appeared around them, and countless Soul Master flew out, completely surrounding the seven.
The Soul Emperor, who was in the lead, looked at the seven people and couldn't help but laugh loudly, saying, "I didn't expect that a bunch of little brats like you would dare to launch a sneak attack on our Black Cloud Stronghold. Today, you will all stay here."
Yang Ping'an glared at the bandit leader and angrily demanded, "How exactly did you find us? Even if you're Soul Emperor, you shouldn't have been able to detect us."
The bandit leader simply smiled, then summoned his Martial Soul and Soul Ring. His Martial Soul was actually a Lion Demon Hound, and the Lion Demon Hound's nose seemed unusual, clearly possessing an extremely keen sense of smell. At the same time, six Soul Ring appeared on his body: two yellow, three purple, and one black. The Soul Ring Configuration was only slightly inferior, but still acceptable, making him a Soul Emperor.
The bandit leader spoke arrogantly, "With my Martial Soul, I can detect anyone who sneaks in within a few thousand meters. You kids have good talent. As long as you stay on our mountain, I will definitely treat you well, especially the three little beauties, who are practically offering themselves up as wives."
Dugu Yan coldly replied, "A bunch of dead people, yet they still dare to daydream. Well then, I'll just have to send you to meet the King of Hell ahead of time."
During this period, in terms of the number of enemies killed, Dugu Yan killed far more than Yang Ping'an, who was the strongest in combat. Especially against some low-level Soul Master, the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison was extremely lethal.
Surrounded by the crowd, the seven were fearless and summoned their Martial Soul, ready to fight.
Those around them also activated their Martial Soul and Soul Ring, preparing to surround and attack the seven.
Looking around, there were over a hundred Soul Master, including many Five-Ring Soul King. However, their Soul Ring Configuration were rather poor. Apart from the bandit leader, there wasn't a single Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, and there were even quite a few Ten-Year Soul Ring.
Yang Ping'an shouted, "Move out! Proceed according to plan!"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan immediately summoned the enormous Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor and used her Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Skill: Jade Phosphorous Heavenly Dipper Array. Instantly, countless gases spread out and flew towards everyone around. Judging from the gas, it seemed to be highly poisonous, and many Soul Master who did not activate their Martial Soul to resist were directly poisoned.
Yang Ping'an took the lead, gripping the Soul Breaking Spear with both hands and thrusting it at the leader of the bandits, clearly aiming to capture the leader first.
Yang Tianyue followed Yang Ping'an, attacking the bandit leader together, while Niu Meng charged around, protecting Yang Tianyue and Yang Ping'an.
The bandit leader seemed to have been provoked. He couldn't believe that a mere Soul King would dare to attack him directly; it was blatant contempt.
A giant Lion Demon Hound directly confronted Yang Ping'an Yang Ping'an, attempting to subdue him using the Soul Emperor's Soul Power.
Unexpectedly, Yang Ping'an was extremely powerful. He actually activated his Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Skill: White Tiger Destruction Kill, clearly intending to launch a strong attack on the bandit leader.
The bandit leader on the other side seemed unwilling to be outdone, and actually activated his Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Skill, transforming into a giant Lion Demon Hound. He swung his right hand and struck out, and there were even bursts of white light on his right hand. Obviously, this strike was powerful and heavy, and extremely powerful.
Just then, Yang Ping'an suddenly activated his Soul Bone Skill to accelerate, while Niu Meng switched positions with him, taking the hit from Niu Meng, while Yang Ping'an tried to thrust forward.
After a single exchange, the bandit leader was stabbed by Yang Ping'an, leaving a large, gruesome wound on his shoulder.
The bandit leader seemed extremely angry at this moment. He couldn't believe that he, a Soul Emperor, had been injured by two Soul King in a single round. He shouted, "Everyone, attack! There's a huge reward for capturing them!"
The people around seemed even more excited.
Unbeknownst to them, Dugu Yan unleashed multiple Soul Skill once more, spreading various poisonous mists into the air, including the Poison of Excitement and the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor's innate deadly poison.
The others, fearless and with Ye Lingling's assistance, quickly slaughtered the bandits.
In just ten minutes, most of the bandits were dead or wounded, and even the bandit leader had many wounds on his body, obviously inflicted by Yang Ping'an.
Especially under the effects of Dugu Yan's potent poison, the remaining bandits were in very poor condition, each and every one of them suffering from the poison to varying degrees.
The bandit leader seemed to know that the situation was hopeless. After exchanging a single blow with Yang Ping'an, he collapsed to the ground, barely alive, and lost consciousness.
The seven men seemed to be in high spirits and quickened their attack, while the remaining bandits were terrified, with many fleeing for their lives, clearly in complete disarray.
Just then, a sudden change occurred. The bandit leader, who had already fallen, took advantage of Yang Tianyue's inattention and tried to capture Yang Tianyue, the youngest of the seven.
Faced with this sudden attack, Yang Tianyue seemed to be frightened, but just as the bandit leader's attack was about to hit Yang Tianyue, she suddenly felt dizzy, and then five steel claws appeared on Yang Tianyue's right hand, directly piercing through the bandit leader's body.
The bandit leader stared at Yang Tianyue with disbelief and uttered four words: " External Soul Bone."
Yang Tianyue snorted coldly, "I knew you were faking your death all along, and I've wanted to kill you in one fell swoop for a long time."
In the ensuing fierce fighting, all but a few bandits of Black Cloud Stronghold were killed, leaving no one alive.
Yang Ping'an even burned down the entire Black Cloud Stronghold to prevent these bandits from making a comeback.
Although the seven fighters sustained numerous injuries in the battle, the overall outcome was satisfactory, and they can be considered to have achieved a resounding victory.
Yang Wuju help but nod, clearly very satisfied with the performance of the seven.
