Immortality and cultivation begin with full comprehension.

Chapter 571 Scavenged Everything (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Leaving aside the resentment of the lower-level disciples of the "Demon Extermination Sect," a similar outburst also erupted on the "Divine Firmament Battleship."

Knowing his own limited combat strength, Li Yunjing immediately boarded the warship and took control of the "Shenxiao Warship".

With this warship, Li Yunjing's combat power increased to the Nascent Soul Realm level, and he began to cooperate with Lei Ze Zhenren, Jiu You Zhenren, and Dan Ding Peak Master to pursue the "Skull Ship".

"Boom!"

The two sides exchanged gunfire over the sea, and in just a few shots, the "skull ship" was no longer usable.

In terms of warship class alone, the "Skull Ship" and the "Sky Patrol Ship" are about the same, and are no match for the "Divine Firmament Warship".

The reason the two sides could exchange fire was largely due to the presence of several thousand demonic cultivators on the "skull ship," which helped them close the distance.

Even so, the "skull ship" couldn't last long.

"Sect Leader! The opponent is too powerful!"

"Let's go!"

"Don't waste your energy, engage them in a direct confrontation!"

A demonic cultivator elder pointed behind him and exclaimed in surprise.

"Damn it! Full speed ahead, evacuate! Regardless of losses!"

Yu Mozi gritted his teeth and summoned three white bone tokens, which transformed into three giant white bone pythons, which he threw behind him in an attempt to slow down the pursuit of the "Shenxiao Dao Sect".

A three-headed, white-boned giant python, baring its fangs and claws, fierce and violent.

However, it did not have much effect.

In just a few breaths, it was completely disintegrated by the combined attack of Li Yunjing and his three companions.

Fortunately, a few breaths is not a short time.

The two Supreme Elders of the Demon-Suppressing Sect joined forces to use the "Netherworld Escape Technique," causing the entire "Skull Ship" to suddenly sink to the bottom of the sea, thus avoiding a fatal blow.

Deep in the ocean, thousands of tentacles extend from the bottom of the "skull ship," clinging to the corpses of sea monsters.

These corpses rapidly shriveled under the influence of demonic energy, providing the ships with the impetus to escape.

"Forget it! Don't chase after them!"

Seeing that the other party was escaping, the Dan Ding Peak Master stopped Lei Ze Zhenren, who was still in pursuit.

"what happened?"

Master Lei Ze frowned and asked with great dissatisfaction.

"Don't pursue a cornered enemy! After this loss, the 'Demon-Suppressing Sect' will surely have to think twice about whether they still dare to fight us!"

Dan Ding Peak Master then pointed to the "Black Reef Island" in the distance behind him, "The treasure trove on that island should contain many treasures; we can't miss it."

"Yes! There are still tens of thousands of demonic cultivators on the island! If these people take the opportunity to empty the treasure vault, wouldn't we have wasted our time?"

The Nine Netherworld Immortal also chimed in.

"Excellent! Looting the spoils is more important!"

The suggestion from Master Jiuyou was met with approval from everyone.

Having already tasted success at the "Ghost Fiend Palace," although some members of the "Demon Control Sect" escaped, their hasty retreat must have left behind a large amount of resources.

These resources are enough for Li Yunjing and the other three to share.

Having made their decision, Li Yunjing and his companions transformed into streaks of light and instantly returned to the "Demon Control Sect".

The remaining demonic cultivators on the island were also looting for wealth, but when they suddenly saw Li Yunjing and his group of four return, they immediately scattered.

"You're asking for it! Some tiny ants dare to steal our things!"

"kill!"

Upon seeing this, Li Yunjing and his three companions were enraged. They scattered in all directions and killed the fleeing demonic cultivators one by one.

Faced with Li Yunjing's four top experts, these demonic cultivators, mainly at the Qi Refining stage, were as vulnerable as ants.

Every swing of Li Yunjing's "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword" was accompanied by the screams of the demonic cultivators, and wherever the sword light passed, blood mist filled the air.

Thunderclap erupted around Master Lei Ze, and the demonic cultivators were all charred into charred remains by the lightning.

The Nine Nether True Man then unleashed his "Nine Nether Demon Eyes," the eerie blue light emanating from them instantly plunging any demonic cultivators who touched them into endless terror, causing them to collapse to the ground, completely at his mercy.

The Dan Ding Peak Master threw out the "Nine Aperture Pill Furnace," from which countless bronze pill swords flew out, raining down on the demonic cultivators and pinning them to the ground.

In a matter of moments, countless demonic cultivators on the island were killed or injured, and the island was completely suppressed.

Of course, there were tens of thousands of demonic cultivators on the island, and Li Yunjing and his companions could not kill them all. Some of them managed to escape.

Li Yunjing and the other three didn't care.

What kind of demon cub defies fate, escapes from dire straits, gains an opportunity, and then seeks revenge?
This kind of scenario is almost impossible!
In the world of cultivation, such a thing is like a miracle.

Since it's a miracle, it won't happen often!
Li Yunjing and his companions also didn't believe that the "Demon Control Sect" had a genius of this caliber!

Besides, if such a genius truly existed, he wouldn't have been left behind during the earlier retreat.

Even if a genius were to emerge, Li Yunjing and his three companions wouldn't care.

As if everyone isn't a genius!
Who wouldn't be full of confidence in themselves if they could cultivate to their level?
The four stopped fighting and immediately began looting resources.

The four of them split up and went their separate ways.

Li Yunjing first went to the "Treasure Pavilion" of the "Demon Control Sect".

The doors to the "Treasure Pavilion" were tightly shut, covered with intricate runes, emanating a powerful aura of restriction.

"That does seem to have some merit!"

Li Yunjing frowned as he carefully observed the rune restrictions.

After a moment, Li Yunjing had an idea. He formed a hand seal, and the power of the five elements gathered around him.

"The Five Elements break the seal, the Heavenly Evolution opens the path!"

He shouted, and the five elements of light transformed into a huge pillar of light, shooting towards the door of the "Treasure Pavilion".

Under the impact of the five elements' power, the restrictive runes began to crumble, one restriction after another shattered, and the light on the door gradually dimmed.

Fifteen minutes later, the door slowly opened.

Inside the "Treasure Pavilion," the light was dazzling.

Countless spirit stones were piled up like a small mountain, and various precious magical treasures and elixirs were neatly arranged on the shelves.

Looking at the wealth before him, a hint of surprise flashed in Li Yunjing's eyes, and he immediately began to select the treasures he desired.

He immediately took a liking to a longsword that exuded an ancient and rustic aura.

The sword was engraved with mysterious patterns, and a red gemstone was inlaid on the hilt, with flames seemingly dancing within it.

Li Yunjing reached out and grasped the longsword, a powerful force surging into his body.

This is actually a high-grade third-tier magic weapon!
Such a good thing is not on the Nascent Soul Realm expert of the "Demon Control Sect", but is placed in the treasure vault. It seems that this thing is a good thing to motivate the disciples!
Just as Li Yunjing was immersed in the joy of plundering treasures, suddenly, the ground began to shake violently.

"Oh no, something's coming!"

His expression changed drastically, and he looked around warily.

Cracks appeared on the walls of the "Treasure Pavilion," and low roars came from within them.

"It's a guardian beast!"

Li Yunjing's expression was solemn. "'Demon Control Sect' actually raised a guardian beast here. This Demon Sect is indeed quite prosperous."

Before the words were even finished, a huge monster emerged from the crack.

This monster was the size of a small mountain, had huge wings, three eyes on its head, and spewed out raging fire from its mouth.

The guardian beast let out a furious roar, the sound of which made Li Yunjing's eardrums ache. Then it spread its wings and pounced on him.

"How dare you be so presumptuous, you little demon king!"

Li Yunjing stood still, without using any magic weapons, and unleashed a "Five Elements Divine Fist".

"Human! You're looking for death!"

The guardian beast was furious when it saw Li Yunjing looking down on it so much.

It rushed in with a scorching heat wave, its three vertical pupils glowing with scarlet killing intent, and the flames spewed from its mouth instantly scorching the surrounding spirit stones.

Li Yunjing's body was enveloped in the power of the five elements, his clothes fluttering in the wind. Facing the overwhelming attack, his fist transformed into a five-element mountain, crashing into the flames spewed by the guardian beast.

The two forces collided with a deafening roar, causing rubble to fall from the top of the "Treasure Pavilion," and the heat wave in the air even cracked some of the jade bottles containing the elixirs.

"What a strength!"

Seeing this, the guardian beast became even more enraged. Its huge wings flapped violently, creating a hurricane that carried countless sharp stone fragments, which rained down on Li Yunjing like a storm.

"That foolish monster has destroyed so many of my resources!"

Li Yunjing's expression changed, feeling a pang of heartache for the destroyed supplies. He neither dodged nor evaded, but instead, a Five Elements Shield appeared around him, its earthen-yellow light swirling as stone fragments fell to the ground. Taking advantage of the guardian beast's weakened state, Li Yunjing used the "Thunder Escape Technique," his figure appearing like a ghost above its head. The "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword" flashed, rising upright and plunging downwards, imbued with the power of the Five Elements, fiercely piercing the guardian beast's head.

"Ow..."

The guardian beast let out a shrill scream, and its three eyes simultaneously emitted a bright light, attempting to retaliate with its pupil technique.

Li Yunjing was prepared and used the power of the five elements to transform into five giant dragons, which respectively wrapped around the limbs and neck of the guardian beast.

The dragons roared in unison, exerting their strength to tear off the guardian beast's wings. Blood gushed out like a waterfall, staining the piled spirit stones dark red.

The guardian beast, having lost its wings, struggled to escape underground, but Li Yunjing would not give it the chance.

He poured all the power of the five elements into the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword," and the sword's cry was deafening. He then fiercely slashed at the beast!

"The Five Elements return to their proper places, the Heavenly Evolution concludes!"

The massive Five Elements Sword Formation enveloped the guardian beast, which, amidst its desperate roar, shattered into fragments and dissipated into the sword energy.

After dealing with the guardian beast, Li Yunjing dusted himself off and glanced once again at the mountain of treasures piled up inside the "Treasure Pavilion".

He pulled out a "treasure pouch" and frantically stuffed spirit stones into it like sand, filling it with dozens in the blink of an eye.

When he encountered rare elixirs, he would immediately buy the entire shelf of medicine; when he saw powerful magical artifacts, he would pack them all up without hesitation.

He even pried off the luminous pearls embedded in the walls of the "Treasure Pavilion" and stuffed them into his storage magic treasure.

After he had searched the last corner, Li Yunjing's storage magic items were all full.

Of course, this doesn't mean Li Yunjing couldn't fit more things in his bag.

The "Purple Gold Gourd" is big enough to hold several more treasure troves!
Li Yunjing looked at his haul with satisfaction, then suddenly noticed a hidden door deep inside the "treasure pavilion".

He used his magic to test it, and the restrictions on the hidden door were three times stronger than those on the main door.

"Interesting. It seems there's something even more remarkable hidden inside."

A smile played on Li Yunjing's lips as he began to study the solution once more.

Li Yunjing sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and concentrated, slowly circulating the "Heavenly Secrets Technique" around his body, trying to find a flaw in the patterns of the hidden door's restrictions.

After a short while, he suddenly opened his eyes, and golden light burst from his fingertips, outlining an ancient five-element talisman in the void.

The talisman slowly floated toward the hidden door, but exploded three inches from the barrier, the powerful impact causing his blood to surge.

"This restriction actually incorporates the principles of the Five Elements, and it cannot be broken by ordinary means."

Li Yunjing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his gaze growing increasingly intense.

The stronger the restriction, the more powerful the thing behind it.

He wasn't afraid of the power of the restriction; he was afraid that it would break with the slightest touch!
Anyway, now that the "Demon Control Sect" has been defeated, he has plenty of time and energy to slowly wear them down!

The restrictions here are static; he'll break them sooner or later!

“Reversing Yin and Yang and turning the Five Elements upside down may break this predicament.”

After thinking for a moment, Li Yunjing's eyes lit up, and he quickly formed hand seals while chanting incantations.

In an instant, the five elements around them began to reverse their flow, with earth, fire, water, and wind surging wildly and forming a huge vortex.

The restrictions on the hidden door seemed to sense the threat, and the light intensified, with countless runes writhing like living things and emitting a piercing buzzing sound.

One positive and one negative, the two forces of the Five Elements intertwined, producing a "creaking" sound. The enormous twisting force seemed to cause ripples to spread through the air.

Two opposing forces are at odds!

Soon, sweat appeared on Li Yunjing's forehead.

"Click..."

The Five Elements Vortex suddenly contracted, and the two forces shattered simultaneously.

"Alright! Time to start!"

Li Yunjing was overjoyed and showed an expectant look.

With a loud "boom," the barrier finally cracked, and the hidden door slowly opened, releasing a decaying yet mysterious aura.

Inside the gate, an ancient altar came into view.

In the center of the altar, a crystal coffin emitting a ghostly blue light floats, inside which lies a mummified corpse dressed in a magnificent Taoist robe, clutching a yellowed ancient book tightly in its hand.

Around the altar were placed many uniquely shaped bronze tripods, from which eerie green flames occasionally shot out.

"This aura... could it be the place of inheritance of one of the ancestors of the 'Demon Control Sect'?"

Li Yunjing cautiously stepped onto the altar, his gaze fixed on the crystal coffin.

Just as he approached the coffin, the mummified corpse suddenly opened its eyes, and two beams of eerie blue light shot straight at him.

Li Yunjing reacted extremely quickly, retreating rapidly while simultaneously summoning the Five Elements Shield.

"Who dares to trespass on my ancestral land!"

The mummified corpse's voice was hollow and cold, echoing throughout the entire altar.

Before he finished speaking, the eerie green flames in the bronze cauldrons surrounding the altar transformed into ferocious fire beasts, rushing towards Li Yunjing.

"The Five Elements Evolution, Ten Thousand Swords Return to Their Origin!"

Facing the attack, Li Yunjing showed no fear. He shouted loudly, and countless sword energies shot out from the "Yin Yang Five Elements Heavenly Evolution Sword," colliding fiercely with the fire beast.

He has confirmed that it is a corpse!
Not a living person!

This old thing seems to have regained consciousness!
Could it be some evil art of corpse refining that turned it into a zombie?

This sent a chill down Li Yunjing's spine. It wasn't that he was afraid of the dried corpse, but rather that the people of the "Demon Control Sect" were too wicked. They even turned the sect's deceased ancestor into a zombie to be used by him.
For the first time, Li Yunjing harbored murderous intent towards Yu Mozi!
This man must die!

The evil spells cast by the Demon Slayer were truly wicked.

Such people have no humanity whatsoever; if they remain in the world, they will bring disaster upon humanity!
"It really is a zombie! And a silver-level zombie at that!"

Li Yunjing's sword fingers moved like lightning, and the power of the five elements flowed more and more fiercely on the sword. Each sword aura was wrapped with the power of the laws of yin and yang and the five elements, shredding the attacking fire beast into nothingness.

However, the silver zombie moved at that moment.

Its withered fingers slightly bent, and the eerie blue light in the coffin suddenly surged. A black chain shot out from its sleeve, covered with spikes and wrapped with wisps of demonic energy, heading towards Li Yunjing's neck.

Li Yunjing's eyes sharpened, and his body rapidly flipped in the air, barely dodging the sneak attack of the chains. At the same time, he waved his hand, and the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" roared out.

Amidst the billowing poisonous fog, Li Yunjing roared, "Fight poison with poison! Let's see what you can do to me!"

The poisonous mist formed by the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" surged towards the silver zombie like a tide. The zombie opened its mouth and inhaled, swallowing a large amount of poisonous mist into its stomach. Its originally dull skin turned a strange bluish-gray, and its strength seemed to have increased to another level.

"Oh no! This zombie can absorb poison!"

Li Yunjing was startled and hurriedly recalled the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner".

Li Yunjing's original idea was to use the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" to absorb the corpse poison and increase its power. However, he did not expect that his attempt to steal the chicken would backfire, and instead, the poisonous smoke inside the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" was absorbed by the opponent, causing him heavy losses.

Li Yunjing was not enraged. In the world of cultivation, there are countless instances of mutual restraint and mutual support.

He doesn't always come out on top.

The "Ten Thousand Poison Banner" is not an invincible magical artifact.

Otherwise, the "Ten Thousand Poisons Sect" would have already dominated the world.

Failure was inevitable and within expectations.

"Hehehe! What a powerful magical treasure! If the ancestor were to swallow it, it would probably accelerate his evolution into a golden-armored corpse!"

The silver zombie pressed its advantage, its black mist surging and transforming into countless phantoms that attacked from all directions.

Li Yunjing's expression was solemn. He formed a hand seal, and the power of the five elements condensed into a huge five-element Dharma wheel above his head. "The five elements revolve, destroying evil and suppressing demons!"

As the Falun wheel spun, it emitted a dazzling light, and wherever it went, the zombie phantoms vanished.

"Crack!"

Just then, the coffin lid suddenly flew off, and the silver zombie took the opportunity to close in, its sharp claws carrying a fierce gust of wind, aiming straight for Li Yunjing's face.

"What a beast! You really think you can stand up to me?"

Li Yunjing's expression turned cold, his fist technique changed, and his aura erupted with crackling electric arcs as he unleashed the "Thunder Tribulation Divine Fist".

Among the zombie levels, Iron is the lowest, followed by Bronze, corresponding to Qi Refining Realm and Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators, respectively.

The Silver Zombie, on the other hand, is a Golden Core Realm level being.

We're all at the same level!
Even though this silver zombie has acquired some gold on its body and is evolving into a golden-armored zombie, it is still only at the half-step Nascent Soul realm!
If this zombie encounters itself, does it still dare to turn the world upside down?
Previously, Li Yunjing used the "power of the five elements" to deal with the zombie, just to observe it slowly and see what its origins were.

Now that this silver zombie is taking advantage of his kindness, Li Yunjing is very unhappy.

The "Thunder Tribulation Divine Fist" erupted, and the power of thunder suppressed the evil spirits. The silver zombie immediately sensed the danger and tried to retreat, but Li Yunjing had already locked onto it.
