Forge your destiny into a sword, slash your soul and ascend to immortality

Chapter 286 Second-Rank Great Demons Line Up to Receive Their Lunchboxes

The purification of [Taoist Power] has become unstoppable!
It began to sweep wildly through Jing Qian's physical body and sea of ​​consciousness, re-refining everything about him.

This is a very necessary change in magical power!

Jingqian's originally distinct magical power system was completely purified and integrated, achieving an unprecedented unity.

For the first time, his previously fragmented and isolated cultivation system coalesced into a unified force.

He only felt that although his past self had sufficient power and accumulated enough magical strength, he was still capable of such things.

However, the integration between the various lines is not perfect.

Even though he had dismantled the [Yanfu] system, he had reintegrated it using the [Six Paths of Reincarnation Sword Pill].

It still looks like a bunch of scattered car parts being forcibly dragged along.

Now, these parts have finally been assembled, transforming into a real supercar, with ignition and refueling all done in one smooth motion.
This was a fantastic experience!
Jing Qian found it difficult to describe its silky smoothness in words.

While both are Dao Power, the combined Primordial Power is more than ten times more efficient than the three Dao Powers of Sumeru, Pangu, and Time.

He felt that his many Daoist techniques, driven by the new Primordial Power, were becoming even more powerful!

Currently, the only things that have not yet been integrated into the system are the thirty-four [Time Sequences] and their corresponding derived [Dao Power].

For Jing Qian, this became a thorn in his side that he had to get rid of!

So, with a thought, he returned to the [Illusory Ruins] and found Old Seven.

This holy son of the Lord's Kingdom, with his sharp and discerning eyes, immediately noticed the change in Jing Qian's cultivation level. Before Jing Qian could speak, he said directly:
"Eighth Brother, this [Divine Status Conversion Card] is indeed useful to you!"

"Your power has begun to purify and enhance!"

"If this were in my country, this would be a true manifestation of the fusion of [divine office] and the refinement of [divine personality], a clear indication of your ascension to [chief god]."

"This deal should be done, right?"

At their level, it's very difficult for them to fool each other.

If Lao Qi still can't come up with competitive bargaining chips and tries to exchange them for things like divine creatures that Jing Qian can't use, he will definitely be ruthlessly exploited by Jing Qian.

In the Kingdom of the Lord, the Divine Status Conversion Card and the Troop Building are basically of equal value. However, in Jing Qian's eyes, the former is an opportunity for enlightenment, while the latter is a dispensable toy. How can their values ​​be the same?

Jing Qian then spoke up:
"I do need the [Divine Status Conversion Card] for cultivation. From now on, I will only exchange my [Immortal Remains Jade] for this kind of treasure. Fellow Daoist, you can prepare well."

"However, I absolutely cannot accept the price of one hundred [Immortal Remains Jade] for one [Divine Register Card]. Please give me a more realistic price."

The seventh brother nodded, but didn't insist any further. After all, it wasn't easy to find a bargaining chip that would be useful to the eighth brother, and he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

He just opened his mouth and said:
"Since our last transaction, this [Immortal Remains Jade] has spread throughout my [Lord's Kingdom] and has become extremely sought after."

"I need you to supply me with as much goods as possible, fellow Daoist!"

"In that case, my pricing will be directly linked to your shipment volume and will be adjusted accordingly. The more you supply me, the cheaper the price of a single [Divine Register Card] will be."

The seventh brother didn't hide anything. In fact, the large quantity of [Immortal Remains Jade] appearing on the market directly triggered a strong demand from many gods.

At least three supreme gods personally approached him, demanding such treasures from him, and he dared not offend any of them.

If it weren't for the fact that they still needed him to provide the [Immortal Remains Jade], even the Seventh Prince himself might have already had it divided up by others.

Jing Qian agreed to Lao Qi's pricing method, and the two of them negotiated the specific details before finally reaching a deal.

In summary, if Jing Qian were to exchange for more than 300 [Divine Status Conversion Cards], the average price would not exceed 20 [Immortal Remains Jade].

This was indeed an enormous fortune, requiring the slaughter of at least six thousand beings of the second rank or higher, but Jing Qian was still able to afford it.

His path to enlightenment was paved with corpses and built with bones, filled with slaughter.

The two reached an agreement and immediately split up to take action.

Jing Qian returned to the Million Palace Universe and arrived at the Sanctuary.

He and the [Year God] combined their powers to kill all eight [Old Time Order] statues in the [Million Palaces].

Furthermore, the [Year God] used its own abilities to seize a large portion of the power to control [Tai Sui].

At this moment, before the great demon of [Transcendence] returns, the entire realm is practically at their mercy.

Upon seeing Jing Qian's return, the [Year God] spoke directly:
"I am ready. Just give the order, and I can launch the plan immediately."

Jing Qian nodded and continued:

"Then I will await your good news within the [Taotie Ruins]."

The God of Year nodded, then leaped out of the Sanctuary and descended once more into the high heavens above the Million Palace.

It broke free from the constraints on its body once again and began to grow and expand infinitely.

In this world of the Great Abyss, nothing can stop a great demon from the past.

In the blink of an eye, the [Year God] swelled to the size of a small asteroid.

It hangs high in the sky, dominating the world.

The extremely high-ranking [Pangu Bloodline] exuded boundless power, sweeping across the entire [Million Palace Universe].

All the demons, large and small, within the realm witnessed the birth of the great demon of the past, and prostrated themselves on the ground as if receiving divine grace.

The worship and fear of higher-level bloodline power are instinctively etched into the genes of every demon.

No one dared to resist or provoke the power of the [Year God] at this moment; the entire [Million Palace Universe] was suppressed by it alone.

Just then, the God of Year spoke!

The voice, imbued with the power of the Dao, easily enveloped the entire Million Palace Universe.

All beings with cultivation and intelligence received the message from the [Year God].

"I am the new Saint of the [Hundred Beasts] lineage, the [Year God]. I have gained the trust of all the saints, taken over the authority of [Grand Duke Jupiter], and entered the [Holy Place]."

"This is my first meeting with all of you fellow Daoists from the Million Palace. I will naturally take the opportunity to present you with gifts as a token of my appreciation."

"I also hope that all fellow Daoists will have a smooth path in their cultivation and achieve breakthroughs soon."

"I will open my [Million Palace] secret realm [Gluttonous Ruins] to entertain my fellow Daoists with endless delicacies."

"Anyone with a cultivation level of Rank 2 or above is welcome to gather at the [Gluttonous Relics] and drink and celebrate with me!"

Having said that, the [Year God] immediately activated the power of [Tai Sui] with all his might, opening several key passages in several pivotal locations within the [Million Palace].

These passages all lead directly to the [Stomach of Tai Sui], providing direct access to the entrance of the [Taotie Ruins].

Normally, most second-rank demons, even those born and raised in the [Million Palace], have almost no authority or ability to reach the interior of the [Tai Sui]'s body.

[The God of the Year] This is giving all second-rank demons a chance to truly come into contact with the essential power of [Tai Sui]!

For all the demons, even if they cannot taste the precious delicacies within the [Gluttonous Ruins],

Being able to personally enter the body of the [Tai Sui] and experience its power and spiritual light up close is a worthwhile trip.

Therefore, after the [Year God] commanded the world, almost all the second-rank great demons felt that a tremendous opportunity was beckoning them. Countless great demons emerged from their caves and rushed towards the tunnel connecting to the [Stomach of the Grand Year].

The God of the Year was quite excited as he watched the many great demons, like ants carrying food, burrowing into the various pipelines.

This is the real moment of reward!

The entire [Million Palace Universe], with its accumulated essence over hundreds of thousands of years, all fell into the hands of Jing Qian and his companion.

If used properly and digested effectively, Jingqian will reap an unprecedented harvest of resources in this process.

……

In the depths of the void, a treasure ship is speeding through the world, traveling from the Dao Abyss Divine Shuttle, heading straight for the Million Palace Universe.

There were few passengers on the ship, only the Empress herself and her five incarnations in the top deck cabin.

And an old white ox that sank to the very bottom.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this old white ox seems to care about nothing and just sleeps soundly.

In reality, even the Empress and her incarnations never noticed this old cow hitching a ride.

This strange journey, after a long and arduous trip, is finally about to reach its destination!

The Empress herself, who was surrounded by five avatars, slowly awoke and spoke:
"This divine body is refined to perfection. Even with my 'transcendent' perspective, I have not found a better way to improve it."

"Once I return to the Million Palace and retrieve the resources from the Ruins, I can directly return to Transcendence."

"You five shouldn't just stand around either. First, merge with me to increase my magical power so that I can suppress this generation's great demon of the [Sanctuary]."

"I just hope that the younger generation will have some sense and not be so ungrateful as to try to take advantage of me."

As soon as she finished speaking, the five empress avatars in front of her transformed into five beams of divine light and rushed into the depths of her sea of ​​consciousness.

The Empress's magical power surged instantly!

She merged with her five incarnations, displaying divine might. Her eyes blazed with a brilliant light, as if they could pierce through the endless void and gaze directly at the origin of the [Million Palace Universe].

She sensed that familiar realm, but her brows furrowed slightly.

"Ok?"

"Are the younger generation really this incompetent?"

"Why is there only one powerful demon from the [Old Story] guarding the realm?"

“Even second-rank demons are rare in the entire realm.”

As they spoke, the treasure ship descended like a meteor and landed within the [Million Palace Universe]. The thick boundary crystal wall seemed to be undefended, and the Empress easily pried it open with her magic power.

When the Empress stepped out of the treasure ship, she immediately saw a black tiger with an extremely powerful aura standing respectfully in front of her to greet her.

Upon seeing the people emerge from the boat, the black tiger immediately bowed and said:
"Welcome back to the realm, Ancestor. I have failed to greet you properly. Please forgive me."

【Goddess Egao】looked 【God of the Year】 up and down, and then spoke:

"Your cultivation is quite good, your bloodline rank is high enough, so you have some foundation."

"However, among your peers, how come there isn't a single [Old Time Order] left?"

"Furthermore, the aura of the great demons within this realm is much weaker than when I was here."

"Have you leaders been doing nothing all these years?"

【Egao Shangdi】showed extreme dominance, wishing she could completely suppress the black tiger opposite her.

The black tiger feigned a plea for mercy, saying:
"Ancestor, you may not know this, but our [Million Palace] has been developing smoothly for many years, and all indicators have been completed well. We have also cultivated quite a few great demons."

"Unfortunately, a few years ago, a daring compatriot, by sheer chance, stole a [Nine Dragon Cauldron].

"This has really stirred up a hornet's nest in the [Nine Dragon Cauldron Universe]."

"After several battles, my [Million Palace Universe] suffered heavy casualties and has not yet recovered its strength."

"And because I was in trouble while trying to cultivate a new demon saint, I took the initiative to open the [Taotie Ruins]."

"Right now, all the demons, big and small, in this realm who still have a chance to advance are accumulating resources in the [Taotie Ruins]."

"Naturally, things will be different from those in normal times in the realm."

"However, with your return to the realm to uphold justice for us, I believe that my [Million Palace Universe] will soon be able to return to its peak."

The explanation of the "Year God" was not made up on the spot, but was prepared in advance.

Although it was only a few words, the logic was very well-crafted, and the Empress did not expose him.

Of course, the message it conveyed still caught the Empress's attention:

"【Nine Dragon Cauldron Universe】?"

"How come I've never heard of that?"

"Is it a newly emerged realm within these two cycles?"

"It's truly shameful that you can't even conquer a newly established realm."

"You stay here and keep watch. I'll go to the ruins, retrieve some items, and then come back to explain things to you."

Having said that, God Ego turned to leave.

But at that moment, the God of Time stopped her and prevented her from going far.

【Goddess Ego】turned to 【God of the Year】and said:
Is there anything else you need?
……

In Jing Qian and the [Year God]'s meticulous plan, the [Taotie Ruins] had already been breached by numerous second-rank demons.

This is a sacred place for cultivation bestowed by the [Old Days] tycoon.

They chased after the enormous profits generated by the [Taotie], preparing to rake in a huge windfall in order to further accelerate their own cultivation.

However, none of these demons knew that what they were really after was just a little bit of profit.

However, some people are using the [Taotie Ruins] as a trap to try and steal the principal of the great demons.

Inside the ruins, Jing Qian was absolutely ecstatic!

The [Year God] used the [Power of Tai Sui] to seal off the entire [Taotie Ruins], allowing entry but not exit.

The horde of second-rank demons rushing in were all trapped like turtles in a jar.

For Jing Qian, there was no better opportunity to make money.

He had no intention of holding back at all; the [Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation] had already been deployed, covering the entire [Taotie Ruins].

No matter what storms or rains may come from the outside world, nothing can stop his killing spree!
Almost all the powerful demons who lined up to enter the [Ruins] died upon seeing the light of day; they all met their demise.
