Chapter 151 Wang Yaozhi: It truly is an excellent furnace!

Beneath the vast sky, on the boundless wilderness, one could see a black tide of corpses and the Great Jing army, dressed in red uniforms, locked in fierce combat.

Shen Qian was one of them. His goose-feather blade drew an arc in the air, and black and red blood mist exploded, sending the corpse demon's head flying into the sky.

As a late-stage Innate Realm martial artist, after receiving the Great Rejuvenation Pill and the Nourishing Essence Pill from Shen Xian yesterday, he has begun to advance towards the Grandmaster Realm.

Once the issue of martial arts resources is resolved, the remaining task is to cultivate the martial arts will.

Although the soldiers of the Right Gate Guard had little combat experience, they were well-equipped and skilled in teamwork, so they did not appear overwhelmed in their battle against the corpse demons.

At this moment, Crane Guardian Daoist also left the central army and led several disciples to mid-air, where he slashed several times at the corpse demon below.

With a single sword strike, thunderbolts struck.

Amidst the rumbling sounds, hundreds of corpse demons were reduced to charred remains.

This was the Five Thunder Orthodox Dharma supernatural power used after entering the Divine Illumination Realm.

He had just broken through to the fifth realm of immortality, the Divine Illumination Realm. After years of accumulating strength, he was now unleashing his full potential, possessing a profound foundation that rivaled even a mid-stage Divine Illumination Realm expert from the Corpse Yin Sect who came to meet him.

Crane Guardian Daoist stood in the void, his Daoist robes flowing in the air. He held a wooden sword in one hand to meet the enemy, while in the other hand he scattered a thick stack of talismans. The talismans fell like raindrops, shining brightly.

Ice arrows, fireballs, lightning bolts, and golden arrows rained down on the large swarm of corpse demons gathered below.

"boom……"

The supernatural powers activated by the talisman on the corpse demons were swept away in large numbers, with no screams, only dull thuds as they fell to the ground.

Upon seeing this, Shen Xian turned to the Princess beside him and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, this time we should concentrate our efforts on killing the corpse demons."

The princess's beautiful face blushed slightly, and she hummed in response. She then transformed into a streak of light, like a graceful swan, and rushed towards the ant-like corpse demons.

At this moment, two Divine Illumination Realm experts from the Corpse Yin Sect went to meet the attack.

The princess conjured the dragon pearl in her palm once more and channeled her spiritual power into it. The dragon pearl shone brightly and flew up, letting out a dragon's roar that shook the heavens and the earth.

The dragon soul roared and pounced on one of the Corpse Yin Sect hall masters at the Divine Illumination Realm.

The Corpse Yin Sect Master's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly and haphazardly prepared for battle.

Another leader, wielding a gleaming silver spear, also charged forward to meet the attack.

"boom……"

Shen Xian was riding on horseback, the central army banner behind him fluttering in the wind, observing the situation on the battlefield and gaining a deeper understanding of this world's involvement in the war of immortals.

Because the opposing side were ultimately mindless corpse demons, the battle would not have gone so smoothly if they were both human armies.

"General Fan, lead five thousand cavalrymen from the Left Gate Guard to launch a pincer attack from the left flank!" Shen Xian pondered for a moment and then gave the order.

Upon hearing this, Fan Zhong's expression turned solemn, and he clasped his hands in agreement.

With command flags waving, a large number of Left Gate Guards, like a red dragon, charged into the overwhelming tide of corpses.

At this point, approximately 10,000 Southern Palace Imperial Guards were deployed to the battlefield.

Shen Xian also has 5,000 central troops under his command, ready to serve as a mobile force to provide support at any time.

The Dongyang Taoist also clashed with the two protectors, Qin and Yu.

Originally, the two sides were evenly matched, but with the addition of An Shouxin, the military governor of Weibo, the scales of victory began to tip in An Shouxin's favor.

Shen Xian wore a dark red cloak over armor, his hand on the Chengyi sword at his waist. His gaze swept across the battlefield like lightning. He said to Xue Zhihua beside him, "Zhihua, the destructive power of high-level immortal combat forces should not be underestimated. I wonder if the Confucian and Taoist supernatural powers of the enemy country Da Rui also have such destructive power against mortal soldiers."

He saw the future in this war: devastation and calamity for all living beings.

In comparison, the chaos caused by the Corpse Yin Sect in Anzhou was a minor incident.

Xue Zhihua said, "If it were a mortal, Daoist He Shou would not dare to use his supernatural powers to kill on a large scale, as the karma would be extraordinary. As for Da Rui, I think that even if he cultivates Confucianism and Taoism, it is impossible for him to be without restrictions."

Shen Xian looked thoughtful.

Half an hour passed in this manner.

First, the battle in the sky has begun to take shape.

Ripples spread through the void, and the fist's energy, like a blazing sun, burned the void and sent the Dharma Protector spitting out several mouthfuls of blood as he flew into the distance.

Protector Yu felt as if his bones were about to shatter, his face turned ashen, and he looked at An Shouxin not far away with shock and anger, saying, "Shattered Void Realm!"

The sixth realm of martial arts, [Shattering the Void], is where a martial artist's punch shatters the void. This is a different understanding of the void from the sixth realm of immortality, [Penetrating the Void].

The path of immortality emphasizes the profound understanding of the primordial spirit's journey through the void, while the path of martial arts focuses more on offensive power and destruction.

An Shouxin withdrew his punch and sneered, "Killing you is as easy as killing a chicken for me!"

As he spoke, the martial spirit on his spiritual platform seemed to have been pushed to its limit, distorting the void.

With a large, ring-pommel sword in his hand, he slashed repeatedly through the air, his feet treading on the void, and in a few flashes, he rushed towards Protector Yu.

The Dharma Protector was terrified and hurriedly retreated to a distance, but it was too late.

As the long sword fell, the man felt the world blazing, his mind went blank, and he was momentarily dazed.

The Dharma Protector's figure almost vanished into the void.

"Pfft!"

One of his arms was severed in an instant. Protector Yu was a ruthless man. He only groaned a few times in pain before his figure flashed and appeared in the distant void.

Covered in blood, Protector Yu felt a cold sweat break out on his back. He quickly produced a pill bottle in his palm and stuffed it into his mouth.

The power of the void condensed at the arm, causing the flesh to writhe and mix with the power of the void, and an arm actually grew back.

But the arm was clearly somewhat illusory, and the aura emanating from it had also diminished considerably.

An Shouxin sneered, "The severed limbs have regenerated, but unfortunately, the foundation of your Dao has still been damaged!"

Ignoring the mockery of the martial artist opposite him, Protector Yu looked coldly at An Shouxin beneath his thick eyebrows. A coffin emerged from his Sumeru bag, and suddenly appeared a two-foot-tall zombie wearing a black robe and a black iron mask.

Suddenly, the zombie opened its gaping maw, its fangs gleaming, and a wave of deathly aura surged forth.

"Roar……"

Instantly, a powerful suction force appeared.

An Shouxin felt a moment of dizziness, but the martial spirit in his mind only trembled slightly before returning to normal.

But the blood in his body seemed to be disturbed, or rather, it seemed to be leaving his body and being sucked away by the zombie.

This is a flying zombie; it can suck blood from a distance.

However, An Shouxin was a sixth-level [Shattered Realm] martial artist, and his qi and blood were only slightly affected by it.

"interesting!"

Under the illumination of An Shouxin's martial spirit, it was clear that the zombie's body was as hard as iron, and the six-star divine weapon in his hand—the Dragon Head Blade—was probably only able to break through its defenses.

Driven by the divine will of the guardian deity, they charged toward An Shouxin.

An Shouxin said coldly, "Unorthodox methods, watch me shatter them with a single strike!"

As he spoke, his figure flashed, and he approached the protector again, his blade flashing brilliantly as he slashed at the flying zombie.

"Clang!"

The sound of metal clashing echoed across the battlefield. An Shouxin fought with increasing ferocity. Compared to fighting against immortals, fighting against these zombies was almost like a brutal, hand-to-hand combat.

Protector Yu was able to catch his breath for a moment, clearing away the violent martial energy surging within his severed arm.

Under the siege of Dongyang Daoist, Qin Guang's plump body trembled violently as he fled in all directions, clearly suffering as well. With the Thunder and Fire Divine Power activated, the Yin Sha River constructed by the [Corpse Yin Token] around Qin Guang was almost completely burned away.

As a disciple of the Jade Purity Sect, Daoist Dongyang's Daoist methods were majestic and powerful, and like a surging river, they had a long-lasting and powerful effect.

Xue Zhihua said, "The Corpse Yin Sect's main force has moved."

Shen Xian followed Xue Zhihua's finger and saw a large number of corpse demons surging out like a tide, their faces ferocious.

Clearly, under the combined attack of the left and right gate guards, the in charge of the Corpse Yin Sect's protectors had begun to mobilize.

Shen Xian's eyes flashed sharply as he drew the three-star divine weapon, Chengyi Sword, from his waist and shouted, "Press forward with the banner, all troops attack!"

With a command given, the flag bearer beside him began to wave the flag, and immediately the clatter of hooves rang out, as powerful as thunder, galloping and roaring.

At this moment, Shen Xian was not only a commander-in-chief, but also a fierce general capable of charging into battle. His long sword was powered by true energy, and its sword light flickered and shone brightly.

"Pfft..."

The divine weapon cut through iron like mud, and many corpse demons of the Corpse Yin Sect fell to the ground like withered grass after being harvested.

A sect leader of the Corpse Yin Sect, at the Dao Embryo Realm, saw the young man under the central banner and was about to make a move when the black-armored youth on horseback suddenly leaped into the air, wielding a long sword and unleashing a beam of moon lotus light.

As the sword light swept across the ground, the Corpse Yin Sect Master's expression changed drastically. He immediately summoned his natal corpse puppet and brought it closer.

But then I heard a "sizzling" sound...

The natal corpse puppet was actually cleaved in two mid-air.

Shen Xian treads on true qi, and although the divine weapon in his hand is a sword, his moves are the sword techniques of the Seven Forms of Breaking Army. He moves with great force, and the true qi drives the sharpness of the divine weapon's Geng metal, stirring up the limbs and broken arms of the surrounding corpse demons, and rushes towards the Dao Embryo Realm cultivator of the Corpse Yin Sect.

Because he has been too busy lately, Shen Xian has not had time to practice swordsmanship and can only use a sword instead of a saber for the time being.

The Dao Embryo Realm disciple of the Corpse Yin Sect looked terrified and frantically tried to respond.

Just a few rounds.

But with a "whoosh" sound, a head was seen flying into the air.

A golden rainbow suddenly appeared, and the Dao Embryo flew out.

The tiny, three-inch-three-point-three-inch Dao embryo appeared, and suddenly divine weapons fell, golden blood raining down on the ground.

Many corpse demons, after being bathed in the golden blood, had the spiderweb-like patterns on their cheeks recede like a tide, then stood blankly in place before collapsing to the ground, never to rise again.

Clearly, the golden blood of the Corpse Yin Sect's Dao Embryo Realm cultivator is the key to removing the curse marks from the Corpse Demon's body.

Shen Xian was currently searching for and killing members of the Corpse Yin Sect who were at the Dao Embryo Realm and Danxia Realm.

Xue Zhihua, on the other hand, led her 5,000-strong army to continue the charge.

The Great Jing army of about 15,000 men charged wildly at tens of thousands of corpse demons, scattering them in pieces.

Shen Xian targeted and personally led the charge to kill any members of the Corpse Yin Sect who attempted to assist in surrounding the government troops.

Until the Corpse Yin Sect sent out two hall masters.

In the distance, Nie Huai, a disciple of the Yellow Springs Sect who was watching the battle, said to Ying Wuming, a disciple of the Heavenly Punishment Sect, who was standing beside him: "This person should be Shen Xian, who has recently become famous in the Great Jing."

Ying Wuming said, "Although this person's martial arts cultivation is high, his martial arts skills are superb. Although he holds a sword, his moves are like those of a knife. His moves are completely unhindered, and he has reached an extremely high level."

Tang Huiyu was also observing Shen Xian, studying his martial arts skills, and thought to herself that his martial arts skills had indeed reached an extremely high level.

Wang Yaozhi gazed at the young man with misty eyes, then giggled at Tang Huiyu and said, "Sister Tang, I think this martial artist is truly full of energy and blood, his fiery spirit is like the sun."

It is truly an excellent furnace!

A greedy glint appeared in Wang Yaozhi's eyes, and her legs under her skirt were brought together slightly.

Her Dao embryo has been formed. If she wants to enter the Divine Illumination stage, she needs such a superior martial arts furnace to obtain the Red Yang Elixir from her primordial Yin and absorb the essence of martial arts, so that she can enter the Divine Illumination stage in one step.

However, this person's martial arts skills are too strong; we must outsmart him.

Shen Xian was originally a humanoid giant pill, which attracted the covetousness of demons and monsters.

Such a holy maiden of the Hehuan Sect, who possesses secret techniques, would have long been drooling with desire upon seeing her.

Of course, this is not about lust at first sight, but more about taking her into the furnace and refining her into medicinal residue.

Tang Huiyu seemed to have sensed something, and she disliked Wang Yaozhi, her tone somewhat distant: "Martial artists are unparalleled in attack and defense, but they do not understand the way of health preservation and cannot last long."

"Then it is fitting that they be used by us." Wang Yaozhi smiled lightly, but inwardly she scoffed.

That should be put to my use.

At this moment, Shen Xian had just killed two Dao Embryo Realm cultivators, unaware that he had been targeted by a demonic woman from the Demonic Sect who was searching for a third Dao Embryo Realm cultivator.

Shen Xian's formidable combat prowess naturally attracted the attention of the Divine Illumination Realm disciples of the Corpse Yin Sect.

The two Divine Illumination Realm experts no longer presided over the Corpse Demon Formation, but instead launched a pincer attack.

At this moment, Shen Xian, at the Grandmaster level, was fighting two opponents at once without being at a disadvantage.

One of the Corpse Yin Sect leaders said, "This person is the commander-in-chief of the Great Jing. If we kill him, it will definitely boost morale."

Upon hearing this, two more hall masters at the Divine Illumination Realm immediately arrived.

When Shen Cong saw the young man, he also surrounded and attacked him.

Seeing so many Divine Illumination Realm experts surrounding one person, Xue Zhihua's face showed worry.

Upon seeing this, Shen Xian's heart stirred, and he thought to himself, "It's good that you've come."

He seems to still have the Void-Piercing Sword unused.

Five divine beings surrounded and attacked one person.

At this moment, the eldest princess, who was fighting against a Daoist of the Divine Illumination Realm from the Corpse Yin Sect, saw this scene. She used her long sword to unleash a burst of spiritual energy, creating clouds and mist, and wanted to go and save Shen Xian.

Just then, a divine jade slip suddenly appeared in Shen Xian's hand, which he shattered.

Amidst the radiant light, a female Taoist priest appeared within the jade slip of divine sense. The mere leakage of her aura caused the expressions of the several Corpse Yin Sect Taoists present to change drastically.

"This is... the Void Realm?"

"No, this is a divine jade slip from a powerful being!" Shen Cong had just gotten close when he saw it, and a strong sense of unease welled up in his heart.

Without saying a word, he turned and ran.

Because we've encountered this situation before.

Those hall masters of the [Divine Illumination Realm] were not so lucky.

But then a sword light appeared, carrying with it countless luminous sword lights, seemingly coming from the void.

The four Divine Illumination Realm experts from the Corpse Yin Sect all tried to block the sword light from descending upon them, but it was all in vain.

A dazzling light accompanied by muffled groans.

Four figures flew out like torn sacks.

Two cultivators with slightly lower cultivation levels, one in the early stage and the other in the middle stage of the Divine Illumination Realm, perished on the spot!

The two late-stage Divine Illumination Realm Daoists from the Corpse Yin Sect were also seriously injured.

Shen Xian snorted coldly, raised the three-star divine weapon Chengyi Sword, and with its sword light swaying, charged towards the two Corpse Yin Sect Taoists.

With the cultivation of a Grandmaster of Martial Arts, killing a Divine Illumination Realm cultivator should greatly benefit his condensation of his Martial Soul!
