A powerful celestial being, a peak expert, carried with him seven or eight thousand top-grade Netherworld Spirit Stones. It wasn't much, but it wasn't little either.
All in all.
This time, Shen Changqing was quite satisfied with the harvest.
Now that Hongshan City has become an enemy of the Xuanming Sect, it's a good opportunity to kill some of their cultivators and weaken their strength.
Shen Changqing looked at the divine emperor spirit medicine, plucking it directly and throwing it into the cave heaven to store it for now. He would wait until there was an opportunity in the future to take out the divine medicine.
Whether it's used for Dan Sheng to refine pills or sold, it's considered very valuable.
To be blunt.
The value of this divine emperor spirit medicine even surpasses that of the Nine Eng's storage ring.
That's it for this wave.
Shen Changqing conservatively estimated that he had also earned 200,000 Nether Spirit Stones.
“A Divine Lord is worth 50,000 Nether Spirit Stones. Killing twenty Divine Lords would conservatively bring in a million Nether Spirit Stones. That's not even counting the Divine Emperor powerhouses of the Xuanming Sect.”
If it were the Divine Emperor, then the resources he carried with him would only be more plentiful!
If it were out in the open, wanting to kill the God Emperors of Xuan Mingzong wouldn't be so easy.

After all, one cannot expose themselves. Killing a God Emperor requires some means.
In the secret realm, there are not so many taboos.
There are too many powerful individuals who have entered the ancient realm. As long as one is careful and doesn't leave any trace, even if a divine emperor from the Xuanming Sect were to fall, no cultivator would know who was responsible.
Besides, with Shen Changqing deliberately hiding his presence now, it was even more foolproof.
...and.
>
A great calamity has arrived, the heavenly secrets are in disarray. Even afterwards, if there are powerful individuals who want to deduce the heavenly secrets, it will be impossible.
>
As soon as he thought of this.
Shen Changqing's eyes turned cold: "The hunt has begun!"
"Damn it, who the hell is hunting down my Xuan Ming Sect's strong ones!"
In a certain place in the ancient realm, the stunning face of the Underworld Emperor was filled with rage. Just half a day ago, she sensed that the Qi Yun of the Xuanming Sect had plummeted, and many powerful figures from the sect had fallen.
It is normal for powerful cultivators to fall in a secret realm. It's nothing strange at all.
But the problem is.
In just half a day, the Xuanming Sect had fallen, with six Divine Lords and over ten Divine Masters perishing.
It's as if someone is secretly targeting the Xuanming Sect.
Otherwise, the Xuanming Sect would absolutely not have so many powerful cultivators dying consecutively.
After all, the strength of these fallen powerhouses is not weak. Even if they encounter danger in the ancient world, it's impossible for so many to perish.

Before entering the ancient realm for several days, only a few cultivators from the Xuanming Sect had fallen, and they were all at the God King or God Lord realm. No God Monarchs were lost.
"The Shangguan Family... or the Lingyan Sect..."
The Emperor of Darkness's mind raced with countless thoughts, and finally his eyes turned as cold as ice.
Whoever dares to attack the strong of Xuanming Sect, is destined for a dead end.
Since there's no clear target to strike, might as well kill all the cultivators who have grievances with Xuanming Sect.
Thought fell.
The Nether Emperor took out a communication jade talisman and ordered all Xuan Ming Sect cultivators to hunt down the cultivators of Ling Yan Sect, Shangguan Family, and Yin Yang Holy Land.
The Xuanming Sect cultivators, upon receiving the order, hesitated for a moment before commencing their search for the whereabouts of cultivators from various factions.
For a while.
The ancient world was suddenly plunged into carnage.
Originally, entering the secret realm to compete for opportunities, many cultivators tore apart their facades. Now, with the Xuanming Sect taking action and deliberately hunting down cultivators from all sides, the situation has escalated to another level of tension.
“Reporting to the Sect Master, I have received word that cultivators from the Xuanming Sect are hunting down disciples of our Lingyan Sect...”
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
When Ding Zu, who was exploring the ancient world, learned this news, his face immediately darkened.
Before he could find trouble with the Xuan Ming Sect, they came looking for trouble with him.
The ancient Dust God Emperor has awakened.
Dingzu didn't want to get entangled in power struggles and grievances within the ancient world.
After all, no one knows what attitude the ancient Emperor Guchen will take.
If a dispute were to occur in the ancient world, angering the Ancient Dust Divine Emperor, it would be a huge problem for both himself and the Lingyan Sect.
However, now the Xuanming Sect has come to insult them first. Ding Zu naturally wouldn't swallow this anger.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“Since the Xuanming Sect wants to fight, then my Lingyan Sect will accompany them to the end. All disciples of the Lingyan Sect listen up, anyone who encounters Xuanming Sect cultivators, kill them without mercy.”
If a disciple is besieged by Xuanming Sect, they can send out a signal, and neighboring cultivators must go to their aid immediately!
After delivering the order, Ding Zu continued to move forward, but after a short while, he changed direction because there happened to be disciples of Ling Yan Zong sending out a distress signal.
Chaos in the ancient world.

Shen Changqing didn't know, and he didn't feel like caring.
Now, he is devoting all his energy and focus to hunting down the members of Xuanming Sect.
Of course. During his hunt, Shen Changqing also collected all the treasures he encountered. Occasionally, other cultivators tried to attack him, but Shen Changqing showed no mercy and killed them all on the spot.
All the cultivators who were slain, Shen Changqing also took their remnant souls and stored them all within the Blood Banner.

Nine Ying fell.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing wanted to refine this treasure, it was also an easy thing.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
After he refined the blood banner, he also gained a comprehensive understanding of this treasure.
The Blood Banner's limit is to contain 108,000 ghosts. The upper limit of each ghost's power is just above the Divine Lord First Level.
But wanting to go further is also impossible.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
>For the blood banner's limit lies here, containing one hundred and eight thousand gods-jun first level ethereal souls is its utmost. Should it be forcefully enhanced, what awaits the blood banner is self-destruction.
However.
Even so.
The truly complete blood banner is also quite terrifying.
After all, tens of thousands of divine lords and ghosts, even if they are only at the first level of the divine lord's ghost, when combined, the power they erupt can kill an ordinary god emperor.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated! I'm ready for more.
It's just that the price to truly gather ten thousand eight thousand divine sovereign ghosts is unimaginable.
Even when Jiuyin was alive, after an immeasurable amount of time and effort, only hundreds of the 108,000 souls she gathered reached the level of a god.
Even if hundreds of divine lords and ghosts erupted with their power, it would be difficult to resist. At the same level, a divine lord would lose after just one face-to-face confrontation.

Now.
>100,800 ghostly souls were completely obliterated.
But Shen Changqing had also slain many powerful opponents along the way. Among them were thirteen Divine Kings and twenty-seven Divine Lords. The souls of each fallen powerhouse were absorbed into the Blood Banner, becoming part of its ghostly energy.
At present, there are only forty blood banner ghosts, but due to their high quality, they can still play a certain role.
When facing even an ordinary Heavenly Monarch, Shen Changqing wouldn't need to move himself. He only needed to sacrifice the Blood Banner, and forty ghostly souls would emerge, devouring even ordinary Heavenly Monarchs and Divine Lords completely.
"Boom!"
A blood banner was unfurled, forty ghostly souls shrieked mournfully, their terrifying and chilling power froze the void as they swarmed a Divine Lord of the Xuanming Sect.
Upon seeing the apparition of a ghost, his face instantly changed color.
"Why would the Elder Jiuying's Blood Banner be in your hands—"
The Blood Banner is quite famous in the Xuanming Sect, with many cultivators having witnessed this treasured artifact.
>
So, the moment Shen Changqing sacrificed the Blood Banner, the powerful masters of Xuanming Sect immediately recognized it.
The moment the blood banner appeared, the Xuan Ming Sect's Divine General turned and fled without any intention of fighting Shen Changqing.
The blood banner falling into Shen Changqing's hands indicated that Jiu Ying had perished.
Jiu Ying is able to be an elder of the Xuan Ming Sect, his strength has already stepped into the peak of the Divine Sovereign, which is definitely not comparable to himself as a cultivator who has just entered the Divine Sovereign.
Therefore.
This Xuanming Sect divine lord ran very decisively.
It's a pity.
>
Although he retreated quickly, the power of the blood banner was even greater.
As the ghostly shriek echoed, ripples spread outward at an alarming speed. The piercing sound pierced into the mind of Xuan Mingzong's Divine Monarch, causing his soul to tremble violently and his body to stiffen involuntarily.
Just a moment's pause, and the ghost had already surrounded it completely.
A large number of ghostly apparitions continuously devoured and tore at the opponent. Although the latter struggled desperately, it was helpless. In the end, after killing several god-king phantoms, it was immediately swallowed by the remaining phantoms.
After devouring the other party, Shen Changqing's mind moved, and the aura on the remaining soul was noticeably enhanced.
This is another ingenious use of the Blood Banner.
As a wraith, Shen Changqing could choose to either consume the souls of Netherworld cultivators to nurture new wraiths or use that power to enhance existing ones.
It is evident.
Shen Changqing chose the latter this time.
"Killing a God Sovereign at the peak of the first level, losing five God Sovereign souls and nine Lord souls is quite a loss!"
He watched the blood banner, whose energy was waning significantly, and couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment.
This is the drawback of the blood banner.
Ghosts are akin to one-time consumables. Once slain, they cannot be reborn nor do they possess the notion of an indestructible blood banner or immortal ghost.
Therefore.
If you confront an enemy with a blood banner, if you encounter a weak cultivator, you can kill them with one face-to-face confrontation. However, if you meet a powerful cultivator, you will end up at a loss.
After all, it takes a toll on quite a few specters to encircle and kill a powerful cultivator. The power gained after slaying the opponent is not enough to replenish what was lost beforehand.
It's just like now.

After killing this Xuanming Sect Divine Lord, the power that came to supplement it could not balance the previous losses. However, Shen Changqing did not pay too much attention to the blood banner. Even if the soul consumption affected him, it was not a big deal. Using the blood banner against the enemy only saved some effort, and at the same time, it did its best to leave no trace. He counted the inventory in the storage ring of the Xuanming Sect Divine Lord, and Shen Changqing threw the storage ring into the cave.
Up to now.
All the resources he had harvested from the cultivators, converted into Netherworld Spirit Stones, amounted to roughly 1.2 million.
This is the number.
...is much more than what Hongshan City has accumulated for hundreds of years. When Shen Changqing hunted down the Xuanmingzong cultivators, the figure of Gu Chen Shenhuang also appeared here on the Sun Star.
