Chapter 315: The Destruction of the Ghost Crying Sect (Subscription Request)

The sky is blood red.

After swallowing a drop of the Fire Phoenix's nirvana blood, the dragon bird's flame has taken on three parts of the flavor of the Phoenix's true fire.

A blazing fire burned in the bright yellow with a hint of white.

After just one encounter, Gongsun Yang, the ancestor of the Ghost Crying Sect, was engulfed by the Phoenix Fire. His flesh and blood melted away, and even the hardest bones in the human body could not last more than three breaths in this horrific Phoenix Fire, and turned into ashes and disappeared.

"Ancestor!!!"

On top of the Guikui Sect’s mountain gate, thousands of Guikui Sect disciples who witnessed this tragic scene with their own eyes all screamed with bloodshot eyes.

However, before these disciples of the Ghost Crying Sect could feel hatred, in the next moment, the Phoenix True Fire poured down and completely engulfed the Ghost Crying Sect's mountain gate.

Faced with the raging Phoenix Fire, thousands of disciples of the Guiku Sect were helpless, and many of them ran down the mountain with fear on their faces.

Even their own ancestor who had mastered the Nine Refining Yin God could not withstand the flames for a moment. They were just some minor cultivators who were refining their essence into Qi. How could they resist it?
However, their speed was still too slow in the face of the Phoenix True Fire.

But in the blink of an eye, the flames engulfed all the members of the Ghost Crying Sect and turned them into ashes. The only thing left was screams.

These screams happened before death. In fact, when the Phoenix True Fire really touched them, those disciples of the Ghost Crying Sect had no time to scream at all. Just like Gongsun Yang, they were vaporized in an instant.

What is very magical is that there are actually soldiers from the Dragon Sparrow Army in the Guiku Sect.

But the magical thing is that the Phoenix True Fire will bypass the Dragon Sparrow Army and accurately attack every disciple of the Ghost Crying Sect.

All this is of course due to the control of the Dragon Sparrow Sword in the sky.

With the precise control of the Dragon Sparrow Sword, wouldn't it be easy to control the Phoenix True Fire to target only the people from the Ghost Crying Sect?
When everything fell silent and the flames rolled back, the Dragon Bird Spirit took back the Phoenix Fire, transformed it into a flash of red light and returned to the Dragon Bird Sword.

The chilling murderous intent dissipated like the tide, leaving no trace. The sky was filled with scattered sunlight, with light clouds and breeze, illuminating the entire Ghost Island, without any trace of the previous haze.

The once vibrant Guikumen Mountain Gate became unrecognizable under the raging fire, as if it was completely destroyed by an invisible force.

The air was filled with a thick smell of burnt smoke, pungent and suffocating.

Everything on the ground seemed to be covered with a layer of ash, with debris scattered everywhere and traces of burns everywhere. The trees were burned to bare branches, charred and twisted.

In this world burned by fire, the silence was filled with the breath of death and despair. The mountain was dead silent, with no grass growing, and nothing but earth and rocks. It was a veritable empty mountain.

There were only 3,000 Dragon Sparrow Army soldiers as well as Wang Lingguan, Xu Ji and others left, staring at the upright figure in the sky with extremely awe and respect.

Farther away, the body of the four-winged cicada was shaking like a sieve.

In my heart, I was shouting like crazy:

“Yang Shen!!! It must be the power of Yang Shen!!! That knife is not some top-grade Taoist weapon, it’s an immortal weapon!! It’s an immortal weapon that can transform!!!”

It seemed that only such a shout could vent the fear in my heart.

No wonder the four-winged cicada is so scared.

If Chen Yan himself could still give Four-Winged Cicada a little desire to fight, then the Dragon Sparrow Sword made Four-Winged Cicada feel instinctive fear, endless fear from the bottom of its heart.

He didn't understand why a young man who came from a remote and poor place (referring to the underworld) would possess a magical weapon that was said to be owned only by immortals.

What is even more puzzling to the Four-Winged Cicada is that

Chen Yan was obviously just a Yin God, so it would be very difficult for him to exert his power normally even if it was just a top-grade Taoist weapon.

Not to mention the immortal weapons that are far superior to the best Taoist weapons.

Logically speaking, in order to wield an immortal weapon, one must at least possess the cultivation level of a Yang God.

Chen Yan was clearly only refining his Yin Spirit, so how could he unleash the power of this magical weapon?
The four-winged cicada is incredible and unbelievable.

In fact, it was not just it, even Gongsun Yang who died under the Phoenix True Fire was puzzled.

It’s a pity that Gongsun Yang never had the chance to know the truth.

As for the four-winged cicada, it neither wanted nor dared to understand.

This battle was originally intended for it to work with Wang Lingguan to deal with those old people in the Guiku Sect who had practiced Qigong and transformed into gods.

it's good now.

Before it and Wang Lingguan could make a move, all of them, including the 3,000 remaining disciples of the Guiku Sect, were killed.

Looking at the young man's straight back, Siyi Chichan couldn't help but complain inwardly with some grievance:

If you had known this, you could have dealt with the Ghost Crying Sect by yourself. Why would you have summoned your men to come?
As if sensing the disapproving gaze of Four-Winged Cicada, the young man glanced over sideways.

The four-winged cicada was so frightened that it quickly lowered its head, trembling and not daring to move.

After taking a quick glance at the Four-Winged Cicada, Chen Yan withdrew his gaze.

He didn't care what the Four-Winged Cicada was thinking. The demon's soul was in his hands, so he didn't need to do anything himself. Just a slight thought and the Four-Winged Cicada would surely die.

In fact, from the moment the Four-Winged Cicada handed over its soul to Chen Yan, its own life and death were no longer under its control.

I wonder if he sensed Chen Yan’s thoughts.

The Four-Winged Cicada's body, which was already shaking violently, was shaking like a sieve. It looked at Chen Yan with pleading eyes, and its pair of compound eyes seemed to be about to shed tears.

Chen Yan glanced at it indifferently and stopped paying attention to it, turning his attention back to the Ghost Crying Gate itself.

Seeing that Chen Yan's attention had shifted, the four-winged cicada in the back finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know when his body had been soaked with sweat, as if he had fallen into the water.

On the other side, looking at the devastated Ghost Crying Gate, Chen Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.

To be honest, even Chen Yan himself did not expect the power that the Dragon Sparrow Sword would display after it transformed into a dragon sparrow.

Chen Yan originally thought that the Dragon Sparrow Sword, which was still just an immortal embryo, could at most exert the strength of the Yin God Nine Refinements. Even Chen Yan had already prepared for a big battle with Gongsun Yang.

He was severely injured by the Dragon Sparrow Knife, and then Chen Yan himself finished the kill.

However, the plan could not keep up with the changes.

The power of the Dragon Sparrow Sword, which transformed into a dragon sparrow, was beyond Chen Yan's imagination.

Although Chen Yan had never come into contact with any powerful Yang God, he was certain that the Dragon Bird Sword, which had transformed into a dragon bird, must have possessed the strength to rival a powerful Yang God, and was undoubtedly the genuine combat power of a Yang God!

This is also the reason why Gongsun Yang, who was the ninth level of Yin Shen, died tragically at the hands of Longque Dao in the first encounter.

Compared with the real powerful Yang God, Yin God Jiulian is just a bigger ant.

Holding the Dragon Sparrow Knife in his hand, Chen Yan slightly felt the remaining amount of Qianyang Lihuosha in the Dragon Sparrow Knife.

Then, Chen Yan showed a trace of distress. Don't think that the Dragon Bird Sword only transformed into a dragon bird for a dozen breaths, and only used the Phoenix True Fire magical power.

However, the amount of Qianyang Lihuosha consumed by it is not less at all.

Four-Winged Cicada and Gongsun Yang wondered why Chen Yan, who had only cultivated his Yin Spirit for a short time, could wield the immortal-level Dragon Sparrow Sword?

This is because the transformation of the Dragon Sparrow Sword itself does not require Chen Yan to provide any magical support.

The transformation can be completed just by relying on the Qianyang Lihuosha stored in the Dragon Sparrow Sword.

Of course, this approach is not without its drawbacks.

The biggest disadvantage is that it consumes too much fire-attributed Earthly Evil Yin Meridian.

Just now, Chen Yan secretly estimated that at least half of the Qianyang Lihuo Sha was consumed and gone.

You know, the last time Chen Yan went to the Fire Crow Secret Realm in the inner world, he collected thousands of strands of Qianyang Lihuosha.

But at this moment, the number of Qianyang Lihuosha remaining in the Dragon Sparrow Sword was less than five hundred.

In other words, just now, the Dragon Sparrow Sword transformed into a dragon sparrow in just over ten seconds and consumed more than five hundred to nearly six hundred strands of Qianyang Lihuo Evil.

This is because the Qianyang Lihuo Sha is a mid-grade Earth Sha. If it were a low-grade Earth Sha, the amount consumed would be even greater.

If one wants to rely solely on the Dragon Sparrow Sword to transform into a Yang God-level Dragon Sparrow Sword to fight the enemy, the amount of fire-attributed Earthly Evil Yin Meridians consumed will be an astronomical figure.

Even if Chen Yan had a wealthy family, he would not be able to afford it, and Chen Yan did not have so many fire-attributed evil Yin veins.

"It seems that the Dragon Sparrow Sword's Dragon Sparrow Transformation Technique can only be used as a trump card at critical moments."

Chen Yan thought so with a little regret.

If the Dragon Sparrow Sword can easily transform into a dragon sparrow to fight the enemy, then Chen Yan will be invincible in the underworld just relying on the combat power of the Yang God.

In that case, Chen Yan would directly take the entire inner world for himself and make it his own back garden.

Not to mention the Taoist Alliance, Vajra Temple, Qingyun Sect, Yulingjian Mountain, Chongming Sect, Tianshi Sect and the like, Chen Yan, who possesses the combat power of a Yang God, can himself be regarded as a genuine Yang God.

It’s a pity that Chen Yan’s Yang Shen abilities have limitations.

As a result, Chen Yan was unable to unify the entire underworld.

But even so, Chen Yan has no rivals in the current underworld.

In the vast underworld, there are only nine levels of Yin God refinement today. Chen Yan holds a Yang God-level combat power trump card in his hand, even though it has restrictions on the number of times and time of use.

But as long as Chen Yan wanted, he could kill anyone in the underworld.

This includes those talented protectors from the Yangshen forces.

The current underworld cannot accommodate the arrival of the powerful Yang God for the time being.

Only when the Netherworld reaches its later stage, when the Endless Sea cultivation world and the Nine Provinces cultivation world are completely integrated, and the spiritual energy of the two cultivation worlds are completely combined into one, can the Netherworld restore its former splendor.

After calming down, Chen Yan looked at Xu Ji who was standing by not far away and gave the order:

"Xu Ji, you lead two thousand Dragon Bird soldiers to control the entire Ghost Crying Island, strictly restrict the entry and exit of independent cultivators, and strictly investigate the remaining disciples of the Ghost Crying Sect. If you find them, kill them without mercy!"

Since he had already formed a mortal enemy with the Guiku Sect, Chen Yan had always believed in eradicating the roots.

Moreover, these disciples of the Ghost Crying Sect are themselves ghost cultivators. Anyone who practices the Ghost Crying Sect's techniques will have innocent lives on their hands.

There was no need for Chen Yan to use the Disha Tongyoushu to identify them. All the disciples from the Guiku Sect would be killed without mercy.

"The last general takes command!"

Xu Ji saluted solemnly, then left with two thousand Dragon Sparrow Army soldiers armed with Blood Thunder Curse Bird Guns.

After instructing Xu Ji, Chen Yan looked at the Four-Winged Cicada again, and said calmly:
"You lead the remaining 1,000 Dragon Bird soldiers to search the entire Ghost Crying Sect mountain gate. Don't leave anything out. At the same time, collect all the hidden treasures of the Ghost Crying Sect, whether they are magic weapons, elixirs, scriptures or maps."

Having said that, Chen Yan glanced at Four-Winged Cicada indifferently, and said in a calm tone:

"If there is anything hidden, you know the consequences."

The four-winged cicada was startled, nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice, and said loudly:

"I will definitely live up to your trust!"

Chen Yan took a quick look and lost interest in paying attention. His spiritual awareness covered the entire Ghost Crying Sect. Plus, with the Dragon Sparrow Sword guarding it, he believed that the Four-Winged Cicada would not have the courage to do so.

As the Four-Winged Cicada led the remaining 1,000 Dragon Bird Army to search the entire Guiku Sect, Chen Yan then turned his gaze to the last Wang Lingguan:
"Let's go, you and I will go to the Ghost Howling Peak to take a look. It is said that there is a top-grade Yin Vein there. I think it will be of great benefit to you. Maybe you can use it to break through to the Soul Refining and Returning to the Void."

Wang Lingguan's original body was transformed from a bronze-armored corpse. Therefore, for Wang Lingguan, compared to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the power of the Yin meridians is the treasure that truly helps him in his practice.

And under the Guixiao Peak, where Gongsun Yang has been in seclusion for many years, there is an excellent Yin vein.

This dark side is only useful to ghost cultivators or ghosts, but it is of little use to creatures like Chen Yan.

Only a few weapon refining masters might use top-grade Yin Veins to forge ghost weapons, Yin weapons, and the like. Apart from that, it has basically no other use.

But Wang Lingguan didn't feel any pain, because as a bronze-armored corpse, he was naturally endowed with yin energy.

The power of the top-grade Yin meridians under the Ghost Howling Peak is nothing short of a tonic for Wang Lingguan.

Chen Yan's words about using this step to break through to the realm of spiritual refinement and return to the void were not empty words.

First of all, Wang Lingguan himself is already in the late stage of Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation and is on the verge of perfection.

Just wait for him to break through to perfection in refining Qi and transforming it into spirit, and then he will have enough Earthly Evil Yin Meridians to successfully break through to refining the spirit and returning to emptiness.

As for the Earthly Evil Yin Veins, Chen Yan himself still had quite a few remaining Yushu Kan Lei Sha.

Although it is a thunder-attributed Earthly Demon, to break through the realm of refining the spirit and returning to the void, what is needed is the power of the earth veins in the Earthly Demon's Yin Veins to temper the soul and condense the Yin God. As for what its attribute is and whether it is compatible with one's own nature, it is not so important.

Hearing Chen Yan's words, Wang Lingguan also showed joy on his face and responded respectfully:
"Here!"

At the same time, what Chen Yan didn't know was that at the moment when the Dragon Bird Sword transformed into a dragon bird and released the Phoenix True Fire to kill Gongsun Yang -

At the same time, a major event also happened in the Tianji Pavilion far away in the Xuanhuang World.
