Cultivation, Inc.I Use Capitalism to Fix a Dying Sect

Chapter 172: Endless Killing Intent

Back in Yellow Earth City, Sun Yi wasted no time. He sent message talismans to Elder Han Yun and then notified Elder Jin Jue.

While waiting, he inspected Zhou Feng’s storage ring. The wealth of a Golden Core cultivator was substantial, but Sun Yi ignored the spirit stones. His eyes were drawn to the jade slips and some materials.

Jade slips were beneficial for his various research projects. Although he had created the Demon Refining Tower, Sun Yi never stopped his studies.

In his Sea of Consciousness, he had eight soul fragments. Currently, he concentrated his soul core in one fragment, making it the Main Soul.

The other seven soul fragments worked tirelessly on various research projects.

Sun Yi only needed to periodically merge the eight soul fragments to fully receive the research results from the split souls, which was highly effective.

Previously, seniors in the sect who cultivated the Split Spirit Technique basically did so to control more Spirit Weapons in battle and improve the precision of their Spiritual Qi control.

But Sun Yi believed that having split souls focus on research was more suitable for him. During battles, the split souls could assist, and when not fighting, they could dedicate themselves fully to research.

The seven split souls worked around the clock on research, wasting no time at all.

Last time, Patriarch Qingxuan brought back a large number of texts from the Evil Spirit Valley and Black Wind Stockade. Whenever Sun Yi had free time, he would memorize these texts and then have the split souls study them, while the Main Soul focused on cultivation and handling sect affairs.

The only item in Zhou Feng’s storage ring that caught Sun Yi’s eye was a jade slip recording the Beast Taming Arts. Sun Yi only glanced at it briefly before he couldn’t help but smile.

The contents of this jade slip were very helpful for nurturing the Mi Luo Beast, and Sun Yi decided to study it thoroughly.

Soon, Elder Han Yun and Elder Jin Jue arrived in Yellow Earth City one after another.

In the main hall, Sun Yi explained the detailed sequence of events.

“Bastards, this Zhou Family is truly despicable, actually treating ordinary people as food for demon beasts. They must die!” Elder Jin Jue said with a face full of killing intent.

Sun Yi nodded: “Exactly. A family like the Zhou Family must be exterminated without mercy.”

“Now that we are no longer constrained by the Evil Spirit Valley and Black Wind Stockade in the Chaos Demon Commandery, we can act freely. We must unify the entire Chaos Demon Commandery at the fastest speed.”

“Those forces that do not follow our rules have no reason to exist.”

“Those who have harmed living beings and committed atrocities in the region should not remain in this world.”

“Elder Jin Jue, can you arrange for a hundred disciples?” Sun Yi looked at Elder Jin Jue. Currently, the Qingyun Sect was truly short on people.

“No problem, I can mobilize twenty squads from here,” Elder Jin Jue quickly nodded.

“Good, then arrange personnel from your side. After all, the War Hall disciples are more suited for these tasks. Elder Han Yun’s people will remain as they are, continuing to build the Qingyun Dao Palace and discover talents.”

“I will arrange the personnel now,” Elder Jin Jue hurriedly began using message talismans to contact nearby Qingyun Sect cultivators hunting demon beasts.

It took a full three days for some Qingyun Sect cultivators who received the message to arrive in Yellow Earth City.

“The time is about right, let’s set off,” Sun Yi waved his hand and directly led everyone out of the main hall, boarding the flying boat in the sky.

Soon, everyone was assembled. On the flying boat were Sun Yi, Elder Han Yun, Elder Jin Jue, Zhao Lun, Zeng Niu, and others, with a hundred Qingyun Sect cultivators standing behind them, including thirty from the War Hall alone.

Although the number was not large, their strength was extremely formidable.

Sun Yi activated a technique, and the flying boat beneath him shot directly toward the Zhou Family’s direction.

Sun Yi had a general understanding of this Zhou Family’s situation. In the Chaos Demon Commandery, the Zhou Family was a fairly strong force, a cultivation family. The family publicly claimed to have three Golden Core cultivators, but in reality, there were four. The family, including peripheral members, totaled over 100,000, with more than 5,000 cultivators, some of whom were rogue cultivators absorbed by the Zhou Family.

Overall, this Zhou Family’s strength was very strong. Apart from lacking Nascent Soul cultivators, it was not much weaker than the Qingyun Sect.

Sun Yi piloted the flying boat at high speed. After a day, the flying boat arrived at the Zhou Family’s location.

He saw that the Zhou Family occupied a top-tier Third-Grade Spirit Vein, where the Spiritual Qi was even better than at the Qingyun Sect.

A massive mountain-protecting formation enveloped the Third-Grade Spirit Vein. That was the Zhou Family’s territory, where their core members lived and cultivated.

Peripheral Zhou Family disciples saw the flying boat suddenly approaching and curiously looked up.

Sun Yi released his Divine Sense, instantly covering an area outside the Zhou Family’s formation. Suddenly, Sun Yi’s pupils contracted, and a fierce killing intent erupted from his body.

With one step, Sun Yi directly walked out of the flying boat, appearing above a cluster of buildings.

Below was a branch family of the Zhou Family, seemingly with a large number of people.

As soon as Sun Yi appeared, a white-haired old man from this family soared into the sky, instantly appearing in front of Sun Yi, staring intently at him: “Who are you? What business do you have with our Zhou Family?”

This old man saw that Sun Yi was only at the early Foundation Establishment stage and did not take him seriously, but he was wary of the flying boat not far away.

The flying boat emitted an aura that made him feel threatened—an aura that only Golden Core cultivators could emit.

“Scram!”

Sun Yi shouted angrily, raising his right hand and clawing at the void toward the family’s rear courtyard. Surging earth-yellow True Qi poured out, directly forming a massive hand that grabbed toward the ground.

“How dare you!” The old man’s expression changed, and his late Foundation Establishment cultivation erupted. A golden battle axe flew out from his body, directly slashing toward the earth-yellow giant hand Sun Yi had condensed.

However, before the battle axe could strike, a figure appeared beside Sun Yi. A majestic aura descended from the sky, directly enveloping the Zhou Family cultivator opposite.

At the same time, a sword beam shot out, instantly hitting the opponent’s battle axe Spirit Weapon, directly knocking it away.

The old man opposite grunted, his face instantly turning pale.

“Senior, what is the meaning of this? Are you opposing our Zhou Family? Our Zhou Family also has Golden Core experts. I advise you…”

Before the old man could finish speaking, Sun Yi suddenly raised his left hand. The Gold Spirit Sword instantly shot out, transforming into a dazzling golden sword light that descended from the sky, directly slashing toward the late Foundation Establishment cultivator opposite.

Feeling the terror of this sword light, the late Foundation Establishment cultivator hurriedly activated a shield to block above his head. However, the next moment, the shield was directly split in half by the sword light, and then the old man’s body was also split in two.

“Grandfather…”

“Father!”

“Patriarch!”

…

The Zhou Family members below saw their patriarch being chopped to death alive and exclaimed in shock. At that moment, the yellow giant hand Sun Yi had condensed directly tore open the ground of the rear courtyard.

The ground was torn open, revealing a scene of carnage below. Hundreds of ordinary people were chained to stone pillars. Their legs had been severed, and blood flowed down the pillars, finally converging into a central blood pool. Dozens of demon beast eggs were placed in the blood pool, absorbing the blood of ordinary people, looking extremely sinister.

Seeing this hellish scene, Sun Yi took a deep breath, and intense killing intent erupted from his body.

“Kill! Everyone in the Zhou Family, leave no one alive!” Previously, Sun Yi had hesitated about whether to completely exterminate the Zhou Family, but now there was no need to consider it. Whether the Zhou Family members deserved to die or not, today they all must die!
