I'll make you the furnace and the cauldron, so you can refine Yin and Yang and prove the Great

Wu Zhanlong let out a hoarse roar, and the wounds on his soul body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The Yinming Sect's Myriad Soul Banner provided him with a continuous source of Yin Sha Qi, and as long as his soul body was not destroyed, he could recover indefinitely.

But Li Hanshan won't give him that chance.

Flowing Light Sword Technique!

The flying sword transformed into a streak of purple-gold light, too fast for the naked eye to follow. The sword light drew an arc through the air, precisely piercing Wu Zhanlong's soul. Pure Yang fire burned on the sword, scorching Wu Zhanlong's soul with a hissing sound.

Flying swords alone have limited effect on the damage to ghosts.

But when you add pure Yang fire, it's a completely different story; the damage explodes!

Wu Zhanlong screamed repeatedly, his soul trembling violently. He tried to retreat, but Li Hanshan had already closed in.

One after another, fireballs condensed at his fingertips, raining down on Wu Zhanlong like a barrage of bullets. Each fireball contained pure Yang fire, doubling its destructive power against Yin spirits. Wu Zhanlong was forced to retreat steadily, the wounds on his soul body multiplying, the healing speed unable to keep up with the rate of destruction.

"Impossible...impossible!" Wu Zhanlong's voice was filled with resentment. "How could a centenarian like you cultivate so quickly!"

Li Hanshan did not answer, but intensified his attack. He used flying swords, fireballs, and spiritual attacks alternately, leaving Wu Zhanlong powerless to fight back.

The surrounding disciples stared in disbelief.

"So strong..."

"Just who exactly is this Li Hanshan?"

"Elder Wu was a Golden Core cultivator in life, and he was clearly even stronger after becoming a Yin spirit, yet he was being completely overwhelmed by him!"

Deacon Lu's expression grew increasingly grim. He had thought Wu Zhanlong could get rid of Li Hanshan for him, but he hadn't expected the old man's strength to far exceed his expectations.

This made him deeply regretful that he hadn't gotten rid of Li Hanshan sooner.

"Die."

Li Hanshan gave Wu Zhanlong no further chances, unleashing his strongest attack after a burst of energy.

boom!

The pure Yang fire exploded, like a small sun blooming on the battlefield. Wu Zhanlong let out a final, piercing scream as his soul was torn to shreds by the flames, turning into countless fragments of soul power that dissipated into the air.

A Yin spirit at the late stage of the Golden Core realm was destroyed just like that.

The atmosphere on the battlefield changed instantly. The disciples of the Joyful Union Sect were greatly encouraged, while the cultivators of the Blood Fiend Sect and the Netherworld Sect looked surprised.

"Who is that old man? How is he so strong?"

"When did the Joyful Union Sect acquire such a Golden Core cultivator?"

"How terrifying!"

Li Hanshan ignored the noise. He turned around, his gaze sweeping across the entire battlefield, and he had already made up his mind.

Now that our cultivation level has been exposed, we might as well take this opportunity to slaughter everyone and compete for the top spot in battle merit.

He was determined to take the position of the sect leader's disciple.

The current situation is undoubtedly quite dangerous for him.

Once his cultivation level was exposed, too many people started targeting him.

Only by becoming a disciple of the sect leader can one break through this predicament.

Li Hanshan charged into the enemy ranks, his feet treading on fiery clouds. Pure yang fire, a deep purple-gold, burned around him, and wherever it passed, low-level Yin spirits scattered and collapsed. Even Foundation Establishment stage Yin spirits couldn't withstand a single fireball.

Hua Nongying and Yun Shuyue followed behind. Although they were not the main force, they took the opportunity to kill many low-level cultivators of the Blood Fiend Sect.

On the battlefield, the disciples of the Hehuan Sect were greatly encouraged by this scene.

"Kill! Charge after Senior Brother Li!"

"Senior Brother Li is amazing!"

"Kill all these vengeful spirits!"

Quasi-Holy Son Song Qingyun glanced at Li Hanshan with a scrutinizing look, but quickly withdrew his gaze and continued his battle with the Golden Core elder of the Blood Fiend Sect. Ouyang Ming, on the other hand, watched a few more times, a meaningful smile appearing on his lips.

Qin Muyue watched Li Hanshan slaughter his way across the battlefield, a complex emotion flashing in her beautiful eyes. This old man was even stronger than she had imagined. Perhaps, following him really wouldn't be a bad thing.

Leng Yue remained expressionless, but a barely perceptible ripple appeared in her silver-gray eyes.

Chu Mengyao, who was in the distance, withdrew her gaze and looked down at the emerald green beads in her hand, seemingly lost in thought.

Li Hanshan charged forward, fighting his way from the left flank to the right, and then back to the center. He didn't know how many Yin spirits he had killed; he only knew that most of the Qi-replenishing pills in his storage bag were used up, and the spiritual energy in his dantian was also rapidly depleting.

But his military achievements are growing at an astonishing rate.

"Li Hanshan, Golden Core Stage 3, 3,000 battle merits."

"Five thousand points."

"Eight thousand points."

"Ten thousand points!"

The steward in charge of tallying battle merits was trembling. Less than an hour into the battle, Li Hanshan's battle merits had already exceeded ten thousand points, far surpassing those of the other disciples.

The surprise wasn't limited to this steward; many disciples of the Hehuan Sect were also astonished.

Li Hanshan's performance was too dazzling.

Even the heads of the three holy sons were concealed by him.

"If I had known, I should have made my move on this old man sooner."

The Third Elder looked at Li Hanshan with a shifting gaze, seemingly plotting something.

He regretted not taking action against Li Hanshan sooner.

Now that Li Hanshan has shone so brightly, he will probably become the sect leader's disciple this time. At that time, it will be difficult for him to make a move.

Li Hanshan's full attention was on the battlefield, or more precisely, on those Golden Core level Yin spirits.

The Yinming Sect released no fewer than a hundred Golden Core-level Yin Spirits. Although most were restrained by the Golden Core cultivators of the Hehuan Sect and the Tianmo Sect, many still wreaked havoc on the battlefield. These Golden Core Yin Spirits were the greatest threat to the allied forces; ordinary disciples simply couldn't handle them.

Li Hanshan set his sights on a Yin spirit at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. The Yin spirit must have been a female cultivator in life, as her soul still retained her former appearance, making her quite beautiful. However, at this moment, her ghostly green eyes were filled with bloodthirsty killing intent.

"Pure Yang Fire!"

boom!

The pure Yang fire exploded, causing the Yin spirit at the mid-stage Golden Core realm to tremble violently. Li Hanshan's next attack followed immediately. The Yin spirit let out a shrill scream, and its soul exploded, turning into countless fragments of soul power.

"Another Golden Core Yin Soul has been annihilated!"

"Senior Brother Li is amazing!"

"Is this the third one already?"

"This is the fifth one! There were two others at the early Golden Core stage before!"

Exclamations of surprise rose and fell across the battlefield. The disciples of the Joyful Union Sect looked at Li Hanshan with awe, while the cultivators of the Blood Fiend Sect and the Yinming Sect showed fear.
