Chapter 232 : Returning to the Qingyun Sect
Chapter 232: Returning to the Qingyun Sect
After slaying this Nether Spring Sect disciple, Lu Xueqi once again surveyed her surroundings.
Seeing that no other demons remained, she waved her right hand and put away this Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
She had previously sensed that because this Ten Thousand Souls Banner had devoured the other three Ten Thousand Souls Banners, the number of demons within it had now approached 400,000.
The quality of this Ten Thousand Souls Banner had also become extremely terrifying by now.
Lu Xueqi once again flew toward the Ghost King’s location, intending to capture the Ghost King and kill him,
But she discovered that the Ghost King had already vanished without a trace, and she had no idea where he had hidden himself.
This caused Lu Xueqi to frown slightly, but afterward, she did not concern herself with it further.
Her main purpose for descending the mountain this time had been to slay these Blood Demons. Now that these Blood Demons had already been slain by her, what did it matter if she temporarily spared a mere Ghost King?
Afterward, Lu Xueqi no longer hesitated. Her figure flashed and disappeared from this place as she flew toward Qingyun Mountain.
Meanwhile, within the original Nether Spring Sect, after these four disciples of the Nether Spring Sect died,
The Soul Lamps they had previously placed within the Nether Spring had already been extinguished.
This was detected by the Sect Master of the Nether Spring Sect.
Although the Sect Master of the Nether Spring Sect had anticipated this matter to some extent, when it truly happened, his expression still became somewhat unsightly.
After all, according to what these disciples had previously said, two of the four disciples had already broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm,
If they could have been brought back to the Nether Spring Sect, they could also have become Elders of the Nether Spring Sect and contributed their strength to the Nether Spring Sect.
But now they had actually been slain by someone else. How could this not make him angry?
However, after thinking about the map they had already obtained, he directly put this matter aside.
After all, with the map in their possession, it was equivalent to their Nether Spring Sect having an additional backyard.
As long as they reached that continent and had the many disciples of the sect sacrifice more living beings, the Nether Spring Sect would inevitably gain several more Nascent Soul Realm powerhouses. Even he himself could plunder some more living beings and see whether he could refine a Million Souls Banner.
At that time, he would also have the possibility of attempting to break through to the Deity Transformation Realm.
As long as he reached the Deity Transformation Realm, even after the Nether Spring Sect Ancestor perished, their Nether Spring Sect would still be able to establish itself once again in the Border Wasteland without worrying about suppression and annexation by other sects.
Afterward, the Sect Master of the Nether Spring Sect no longer hesitated and immediately brought along several selected Elders as well as the Ancestor’s Giant Coffin, heading toward the boundless sea as he prepared to reach that continent as quickly as possible.
After flying for some time, Lu Xueqi had already returned to the Qingyun Sect.
The moment she landed, she was sensed by Daoxuan within the Qingyun Sect.
Afterward, Daoxuan’s figure flashed, and he appeared in the sky above the Qingyun Sect. Looking at Lu Xueqi, he could not help but ask：“Martial Niece Lu, has that Blood Demon been dealt with”
After hearing this, Lu Xueqi nodded casually and said：“Sect Leader Martial Uncle, that Blood Demon has already been dealt with by me.”
Afterward, Lu Xueqi waved her right hand, and two Ten Thousand Souls Banners appeared in her hand as she said：
“This was the reason that Blood Demon slaughtered living beings throughout the world. These Blood Demons slaughtered the world primarily to seize the souls of countless living beings and refine them into these so-called Ten Thousand Souls Banners, raising the grade of the Ten Thousand Souls Banners and using them to break through in strength.”
After hearing Lu Xueqi’s explanation, Daoxuan’s expression became unsightly.
He had never expected that the reason these demons were so cruel was merely to refine Ten Thousand Souls Banners.
However, afterward, he recalled that there seemed to have been no information concerning Ten Thousand Souls Banners on this continent before. He could not help but look toward Lu Xueqi and ask：“Martial Niece Lu, what is a Ten Thousand Souls Banner？”（For an exhilarating read, go online！）
Lu Xueqi immediately told Daoxuan about the Nether Spring Sect and the other continent.
After hearing Lu Xueqi’s words, Daoxuan’s expression changed drastically in horror.
He had never expected that their continent was not the only continent in this world. There was unexpectedly another continent elsewhere, and that continent was very likely broader than theirs, with denser Spiritual Energy and more powerhouses.
This could not help but make Daoxuan somewhat worried.
After all, if the powerhouses on that other continent learned of their continent and directly launched an assault against them when the time came, would their continent have any means of resisting them?
Lu Xueqi also saw through Daoxuan’s thoughts and could not help but say：“Sect Leader, there is no need to worry. If they are merely some demons, just leave them to me.
Moreover, I have recently sensed that the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth on our continent is about to completely revive.
At that time, our Qingyun Sect will also usher in a period of explosive growth in strength, and all of you will be able to become stronger as quickly as possible.”
After hearing Lu Xueqi’s words, Daoxuan’s expression immediately filled with joy as he asked：“Martial Niece Lu, is that really true？”
After hearing this, Lu Xueqi nodded and said：“。～Indeed, during this period, the Spiritual Energy on our continent has continuously grown stronger and has already reached the critical point of a complete Spiritual Energy eruption
It should be during these next few days that the Spiritual Energy will completely revive. At that time, Martial Uncle and the others only need to cultivate diligently. As for the other dangers, leave them to me for the time being.”
After hearing this, Daoxuan immediately nodded and said：“Good, since that is the case, I will have to trouble Martial Niece Lu.”
Afterward, he could not help but look toward the two Ten Thousand Souls Banners and said with a frown：“Martial Niece Lu, how should these two Ten Thousand Souls Banners be handled？”
After hearing this, Lu Xueqi pondered briefly before saying：“The refinement of these Ten Thousand Souls Banners is extremely bizarre. The souls that have already been refined into the Ten Thousand Souls Banners have now lost their intelligence.
Even if we destroy the Ten Thousand Souls Banners now, the souls within them will still be unable to obtain release.
It would be better for us to keep the Ten Thousand Souls Banners for now.
Later, I will refine them again, removing their evil nature and turning them into one of the Qingyun Sect’s major Trump Cards. That would also be quite good.
After all, the powerhouses from that other continent（Li Zhao is good）could come searching for us at any time. It would still be better for our Qingyun Sect to have more Trump Cards.”
After hearing Lu Xueqi’s words, Daoxuan also directly nodded.
Although he firmly upheld the Righteous Path in his heart, he was not an inflexible person. Moreover, these two Ten Thousand Souls Banners were also Lu Xueqi’s spoils of battle and should naturally be handled by Lu Xueqi, so he did not say anything more to stop her.
After explaining some matters to Daoxuan, Lu Xueqi no longer hesitated. Her figure flashed, and she flew toward Xiaozhu Peak.
After returning to Xiaozhu Peak and reporting her safety to her Master, Master Shuiyue, she once again entered Taiji Cave in the Back Mountain, preparing to fuse these two Ten Thousand Souls Banners together.
The moment she returned to Taiji Cave, she sensed that the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth within Taiji Cave had unexpectedly increased, causing a hint of joy to appear on Lu Xueqi’s face.
She murmured：“It seems that the complete Spiritual Energy Revival of heaven and earth will occur within these next few days.”。
