Chapter 135 It's better to keep this to yourself.
The Banner of Vengeful Spirits flew towards Chen Zhixiong, growing larger as it flew. Countless vengeful spirits screamed and surged out of the banner, growing larger along with it.
Chen Zhixiong realized the danger and retreated quickly, pressing down with his tiger paw as he did so.
Both sides are racing, and whoever is faster will gain the upper hand.
Zhong Lingxin chuckled, and with a thought, Li Wuxie's Soul-Slaying Banner arrived beside Chen Zhixiong. Chen Zhixiong's tiger paw also pressed down on Li Wuxie's head.
Two shouts rang out in unison: "Kill!" "Explode!"
The Fiend Banner exploded on Chen Zhixiong's body.
The tiger's paw slammed down on Li Wuxie's head.
Chen Zhixiong was covered in bites from the blasted vengeful spirits. He screamed in agony as they devoured him, leaving broken magical artifacts scattered on the ground.
Li Wuxie was slammed into the ground. His head was smashed, his soul was shattered, and he was left with a body full of broken magical artifacts.
The out-of-control Fiend Array and the treasure bottle fell to the ground at the same time.
With a wave of her hand, Zhong Lingxin brought both the Soul-Slaying Array and the treasure bottle into her hands.
But no matter how she tried to put it in, she couldn't.
Zhong Chun told her that both treasures had owners, and that Li Wuxie and Chen Zhixiong had only temporarily made a contract with each other.
Zhong Lingxin nodded and used a trapping array to imprison both treasures, intending to hand them over to her master after they left the ancient battlefield.
The Lingyun Sect cultivators and the Lihun Sect evil cultivators, who were engaged in fierce combat, were unaware that their leader had died and continued to kill each other.
Ultimately, the Lingyun Sect cultivators suffered more deaths in the Fierce Soul Formation, gradually putting them at a disadvantage.
But as the sky brightened, the cultivators of the Li Hun Sect gradually sensed something was amiss.
The most favorable influence on them is gone.
Their leader? Where is the leader?
The cultivators of Lingyun Sect also sensed that something was wrong.
Where is their leader? Why can't we hear him shouting and yelling anymore?
The cultivators on both sides were momentarily confused about the situation. After exchanging hostile glances, they each brandished their magical weapons and continued their fierce battle.
Gradually, the advantage of Lingyun Sect cultivators having a good foundation became apparent.
Their large dantian and wide meridians are more conducive to a protracted battle.
The evil cultivators had killed many Lingyun Sect cultivators in the dark clouds earlier, and their numerical advantage was now becoming apparent.
The two sides fought to a standstill once again.
Zhong Lingxin coldly watched the two sides fight, then glanced at Bao Yongxin who had fled, before releasing Huanhuan and Lele to practice their skills.
Enveloped by the trapping formation, the Lingyun Sect camp was in complete chaos, with no news coming from the outside.
The several second-level sects that were sent out to fight quickly ended the battle, allowing that small group of evil cultivators from the Li Hun Sect to escape.
They're not going to chase after them; chasing them would be suicide!
Several second-tier sects, resentful of the oppression they suffered at the hands of the Lingyun Sect, sent only a brief report on the battle before returning to their respective camps.
No one went to Lingyun Sect's camp to report in person.
Therefore, the Lingyun Sect cultivators, who were locked in a fierce battle, could not wait for reinforcements. They sent out countless SOS messages, but Zhong Lingxin blocked them all.
One by one, the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Lingyun Sect were forced to self-destruct.
Zhong Lingxin watched coldly, thinking that Uncle Haiyuan's self-destruction that day was probably for the same reason.
Uncle Haiyuan, did you see that? I've avenged you.
In the end, only a dozen or so evil cultivators survived the battle.
With a thought, Zhong Lingxin set off a raging fire that burned to death over a dozen evil cultivators from the Li Hun Sect.
Bao Yongxin, who had tried to escape, was also killed by Huanhuan and Lele.
Zhong Lingxin cleaned up the battlefield, leaving no trace.
The news of the Li Hun Sect's sneak attack on the Ling Yun Sect was spread by a small group of evil cultivators who had been holding back several second-level sects.
She did good deeds anonymously, only picking up the magical treasures and storage equipment scattered on the ground.
After surveying the battlefield once more and confirming that nothing had been missed, Zhong Lingxin affixed an invisibility talisman, dispelled the trapping formation, and quietly left.
Perhaps trapping and killing like this is a good method.
Unfortunately, her cultivation level was limited, and it was too difficult for her to control the formation when she forcibly trapped and killed too many evil cultivators.
It's impossible for every single time to have a fierce battle between the two sides.
However, killing them one by one is still possible.
From then on, Zhong Lingxin often went out under the guise of setting up a stall, using the trapping formation to kill many evil cultivators.
Perhaps it was because too many evil cultivators had gone missing that they attracted the attention of the evil cultivator leaders, and each camp increased patrols and tried to minimize going out.
Zhong Lingxin could only regretfully give up.
A few days later, news spread that a large number of evil cultivators from the Li Hun Sect had attacked the Ling Yun Sect and never returned.
At the same time, news spread that the Lingyun Sect's camp was deserted, and all the Lingyun Sect disciples who remained in the camp had disappeared.
There were signs of a large-scale battle at the scene.
Both the righteous and the evil were filled with fear and unease.
What could possibly make over a thousand cultivators vanish without a trace, leaving no trace of their lives or bodies, without alerting the many cultivators in the city?
Soon someone mentioned the remnant soul.
There must be powerful remnant souls in this Flying Dragon City!
Judging from the number of spirit treasure fragments each of them found, countless powerful beings must have fought here in the ancient battlefield back then, so it's not surprising that there were powerful remnant souls among them.
For a moment, neither side had any intention of fighting, fearing that if they weren't careful, the Great Remnant Soul would wipe them all out without a trace.
The legend of the Great Remnant Soul using the living souls of cultivators to cultivate also quietly circulated in Flying Dragon City.
Only the cultivators of the Qingyun Sect reserved their opinions on this rumor.
They witnessed dozens of bottles of evil-repelling pills and healing pills appear before them, and all the dozens of disciples who had been harmed by the evil energy were completely healed.
This means that a powerful cultivator is helping them.
The great cultivator came silently and left silently.
No one saw what the great cultivator looked like or how he got there.
But they were saved.
Another point is that after that great cultivator saved them, the Lingyun Sect cultivators collectively disappeared.
They had reason to suspect that the mass disappearance of the Lingyun Sect cultivators was the work of that powerful cultivator.
Wang Ling and Yi Xiuyuan restrained the disciples of the Qingyun Sect, forbidding them from spreading any news that the Qingyun Sect had received assistance.
Since that great cultivator is unwilling to reveal the truth, they shouldn't bring trouble upon themselves.
Otherwise, those major sects would force them to confess.
They really can't explain it, so they might as well keep it to themselves.
The Qingyun Sect cultivators had been living a stifled life ever since they entered the ancient battlefield. They all knew the dangers, but none of them dared to spread the word.
Soon, the other four major sects sent people to recruit them, and several associations and the Loose Cultivator Alliance also sent people to recruit them.
After discussing it, Wang Ling and Yi Xiuyuan went to the Jade Dragon Sect to consult with the sect's leader.
Both sides were fed up with being bossed around.
So they joined forces with several other second-tier sects, declaring that they would act independently and that all matters would be discussed and decided jointly by the other second-tier sects. They would continue to deal with the Li Hun Sect, which was their responsibility.
Actually, they took a shortcut, but since the Li Hun Sect was assigned to the Ling Yun Sect in the initial allocation, that's what happened.
As a secondary sect of the Lingyun Sect, it is only natural for them to inherit the Lingyun Sect's legacy and continue to fight against the Lihun Sect.
The other four major sects dared not force him.
The weight of that large, remnant soul weighed heavily on their hearts.
What if they're fighting and that giant remnant soul manages to wipe them all out?
