Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 243 The End of Two Sects' Battle (12)

The old woman died, pierced through the heart by a sword.

Shen Qingyi felt relieved in her heart, without much emptiness.

In the past, her only relative was this old woman, a wolf in sheep's clothing. If the old woman died, she would become a lonely person.

Now, she had a husband, sisters, her sisters' children, and her unborn daughter in her belly.

Killing the old woman would only bring her satisfaction.

"Go to Xiao Sister's side, I will start cleaning up here."

Seeing that the avenger had avenged her, a relieved expression appeared on the heroic face of Chen An as he said this to her.

Shen Qingyi was sensible and said, "Husband, please be careful and don't be careless," before flying towards Xiao Qingyue on her sword.

Seeing that Ning Xian'er was also there, she didn't directly call Xiao Qingyue "Master" or "Sister Xiao," but rather awkwardly called her "husband," and then respectfully called Ning Xian'er "Lady Saint."

Xiao Qingyue felt uncomfortable being called "husband" by her, but she didn't show too much surprise. Instead, she played the role of "Chen An" well.

"Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo--"

Suddenly, a howling sound came from a distant mountain peak.

Chen An, who was clearing the field with the Immobilization Technique, heard this sound from afar and immediately looked in that direction.

With the help of his powerful spiritual sense, he saw a dark cloud covering the mountain peak.

But there was no thunder or rain.

There were only countless humanoid shadows floating within.

Upon closer inspection, Chen An saw the figures of several core elders of the Heaven and Earth Sect among these humanoid shadows.

And these core elders had recently become souls under Cao Dian's sword and were cruelly refined into soul puppetry in the Soul Nurturing Banner.

Soon, a figure surrounded by soul puppets appeared in the sky.

It was Cao Dian, who had just been flicked away by Chen An with a finger.

For some reason, he wasn't killed by Chen An's flick, but instead transformed and his spiritual pressure rose several levels, approaching the mid-stage of Soul Formation.

"Buzz--"

"Buzz--"

"Buzz--"

"..."

As the sound of breaking through the air rang out, Cao Dian, accompanied by all the soul puppets around him, flew rapidly towards the central square, aiming directly at Chen An.

As the distance closed, Cao Dian's voice filled with anger, "Bastard, I don't know how you flicked me away with a finger just now, but now, I will torture you until you wish for death!"

The cultivators in the central square heard this roar and all looked up in the direction.

When they saw the sky filled with dense soul puppets not far away, without exception, their faces changed color, filled with fear.

Cao Dian had returned!

Not only had his own strength greatly increased, but he had also released all the soul puppets from the Soul Nurturing Banner. The Heaven and Earth Sect was finished!

At this moment, everyone on the square subconsciously forgot about Chen An's existence and were all overwhelmed by Cao Dian's return.

"Buzz--"

"Buzz--"

"Buzz--"

Three eerie soul puppets rushed to Chen An's front, each of them being former core elders of the Heaven and Earth Sect, with cultivation levels reaching the late stage of Nascent Soul.

Without even looking, Chen An raised his hand and struck with a sword.

"Swish--"

Only the sound of a sword blade cutting through the air was heard.

The three eerie soul puppets were instantly split in half and stopped flying in mid-air.

But in the next moment, these three severed puppet souls reassembled and surrounded Chen An, screaming like fierce ghosts.

Then, more and more puppet souls flew towards him, engulfing him in darkness.

Meanwhile, Cao Dian, the mastermind behind all this, cautiously kept a safe distance from Chen An, hiding in the sky thousands of meters away, controlling the puppet souls to attack him.

He watched as Chen An was submerged by countless puppet souls below, unable to help but manipulate one of the puppet souls and laugh out loud, "You bastard, my puppet souls are all immortal beings that can directly attack the souls of living creatures. Let's see how you can solve this!"

Ning Xian'er heard Cao Dian's laughter and immediately shouted anxiously to Chen An, who had transformed into the appearance of Xiao Qingyue, "Master, don't worry about us, just run!"

"We're done for. The Sect Master won't be able to hold on. Today, we're all going to die!" All the disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect present were nervous, their hearts pounding rapidly.

However, everyone's worries were unnecessary.

Suddenly, a circle of sword light appeared.

In the next moment, all the puppet souls were severed at the waist and did not reassemble, directly dissipating into smoke and dust in the eyes of everyone present.

Chen An infused spiritual power into his Yin-Yang Sword, causing irreversible damage to these dissipating puppet souls.

"This, this is impossible!"

Cao Dian, hidden in the sky above, was shocked, his eyes wide open, his face filled with disbelief.

He didn't have time to dwell on how Chen An had done it. He immediately turned around and fled frantically, prioritizing his own survival.

As long as the mountains remain, there will be firewood to burn. As long as he's alive, he will have a chance to seek revenge on Chen An.

Unfortunately, Chen An didn't give him that chance at all. He directly used a teleportation array to instantly appear in front of him, blocking his way.

"Who are you?!"

Cao Dian's face was filled with the fear of death.

Chen An didn't respond, he swung his Yin-Yang Sword and sent Cao Dian to his death. Before he hit the ground, Chen An had a thought and collected the Soul Nurturing Banner and storage ring from his body.

"Boom!"

Cao Dian's lifeless body crashed onto the ground of the central square, making a deafening sound, causing a large circle of spiderweb-like cracks to appear on the ground.

"The Sect Master has won!!!"

When everyone saw that the dead person on the ground was Cao Dian, all the cultivators of the Heaven and Earth Sect in the square cheered excitedly.

On the other hand, the controlled cultivators of the Mysterious Yellow Sect were filled with despair.

Xiao Qingyue and the other high-ranking members of the Heaven and Earth Sect felt like they were dreaming when they saw this scene.

Cao Dian was dead, and the remaining cultivators of the Mysterious Yellow Sect were nothing more than insignificant ants. They were quickly controlled by the cultivators of the Heaven and Earth Sect, awaiting only death and judgment.

The battle between the two sects had ended, and Chen An chose not to stay any longer.

He used the Mirror Flower Water Moon technique to temporarily trap all the cultivators in the central square in an illusion, then changed back to his own appearance and flew with Shen Qingyi towards the "Stable" Cave Mansion.

Xiao Qingyue was not affected by the illusion, and when she saw Chen An return to his original appearance and leave with his wives, she also returned to her own appearance at the same time.

Not long after, she received a voice transmission from Chen An.

"You have three days to handle the aftermath of the battle between the two sects. Three days later, I will personally come to your Cave Mansion to find you. I hope you will be prepared by then."

In theory, it would take at least a month to handle this.

Because the battle between the two sects was not a small matter, there were too many things to deal with, and it couldn't be done overnight.

However, Chen An couldn't wait that long.

In three days at most, he would devour Xiao Qingyue completely.

If it weren't for the chaos in the Heaven and Earth Sect after the battle, requiring urgent cleanup, he would have wanted to possess Xiao Qingyue that very day.

Giving her three days to handle things was already quite considerate.

After all, a man in heat is no different from a wild beast.

...

Steward Cave Mansion, "Stable" Cave Mansion.

After returning home, Chen An briefly explained the situation to his wives, then retreated to his room to sort through the spoils he had obtained from Cao Dian.

There are two items obtained, one is the Soul Nurturing Banner, and the other is the Storage Ring.

He is more interested in the Soul Nurturing Banner and is full of curiosity.

He took a few glances.

It looks like a small flag.

The color is pure black.

It looks very eerie.

After observing for a while, an item prompt message appeared in front of his eyes.

[Soul Nurturing Banner: This is a rare Spiritual Treasure that can collect the souls of living beings and refine them into soul puppets for personal use.]

"It's actually a Spiritual Treasure?!" Chen An was pleasantly surprised and couldn't stop smiling.

Indeed, the strong in the Soul Formation realm are wealthy.

He made a big profit from the two major battles this time.

At this moment, wisps of black smoke suddenly emerged from the Soul Nurturing Banner.

Chen An was startled and instinctively threw the Soul Nurturing Banner away.

The Soul Nurturing Banner was thrown on the ground, and the black smoke that emerged quickly condensed together, forming the figure of a graceful woman.

The woman only had an outline and no facial features, but she could still see Chen An in front of her and spoke in a eerie voice, "Daring to kill the puppet supported by Yin Domain in the Great Thousand Domain, how audacious..."

"Swish!"

Before the woman could finish speaking, Chen An raised his hand and struck with a sword, instantly cutting her into pieces.

He didn't dare to let this woman stay in the room for too long, fearing that she would be able to locate him and come looking for him.

Immediately, he released his spiritual power and frantically washed the Soul Nurturing Banner on the ground, eliminating any traces of aura on it, so as not to be found by the other party.

After all, even Cao Dian, who was in the Soul Formation realm, was just a puppet in this woman's eyes. It was likely that this woman had extremely high cultivation and many means, so he had to be cautious.

[Yin Ji has developed hatred towards you, current hatred level is 5 stars.]

That woman's name is Yin Ji?

Damn her!

Chen An was determined to take revenge. As soon as he learned the woman's name from the prompt message, he immediately took out the Book of Curses and started cursing.

The previous prompt message about the Book of Curses mentioned that using it to curse a target would not be traced back to the source, so he could retaliate against the other party without worry.

...

Yin Domain.

In a Cave Mansion filled with gloom.

A woman dressed in a black dress, with a naturally gloomy face, was sitting cross-legged on a pitch-black stone coffin, her eyes tightly closed, remotely controlling a strand of her own soul that had split off.

Suddenly, a drop of fresh blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth, and her slender eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Her strand of soul had been extinguished, causing damage to her own soul.

But fortunately, the damage was not significant, and with about half a month of recuperation, she would fully recover.

"What kind of sword was that?"

"It actually easily destroyed the strand of soul I split off?"

"How could such a treasure exist in such a low-level realm?"

The woman's face was full of surprise.

Soon, she closed her eyes again and used a secret technique to locate the position of the Soul Nurturing Banner, intending to find Chen An, kill him, retrieve the Soul Nurturing Banner, and take back the Yin-Yang Sword that Chen An had used to destroy her soul.

However, after a moment, she opened her eyes and said with some regret, "This person is cautious. He immediately erased the divine sense mark I left on the Soul Nurturing Banner."

After speaking, she smirked, "But it doesn't matter. I will personally go to the Great Thousand Domain in a while and dig three feet into the ground to find you."

Cao Dian is in the Great Thousand Domain, and she thought Chen An would also be in the Great Thousand Domain.

She didn't know that Cao Dian had taken most of the Mysterious Yellow Sect's cultivators to attack the Heaven and Earth Sect during this period.

Because Cao Dian was a puppet, she had never paid much attention to him.

"Hiss!"

Suddenly, the woman gasped in pain, and her slender eyebrows furrowed.

Just now, her slightly damaged soul inexplicably worsened.

It felt like the newly formed wound had suddenly torn open, causing a sharp pain.

"The Book of Curses?"

"What's going on?"

"Just a mere Book of Curses, and it can actually harm me?"

The woman's face was full of disbelief.

Law Weapons like the Book of Curses were everywhere in the Yin Domain, and she had several of them in her storage ring.

Law Weapons like these could at most affect cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, but they were useless against cultivators in the Soul Formation stage and above, like her.

However!

The woman, who had reached the Void Refining stage, had just been successfully cursed by the Book of Curses.

Although the damage was not significant, she had indeed been cursed.

The woman was completely puzzled by this.

After calming down, she quickly used a secret technique to trace the source of the curse.

But what shocked her next was that the source of the curse was untraceable!

"What's going on?"

"What is going on?"

The woman's face was filled with doubt.

...

Mountain and Sea Domain.

Heaven and Earth Sect.

In the three days after the end of the battle between the two sects.

Xiao Qingyue, the Sect Master of the Heaven and Earth Sect, hardly had a second to spare.

On the first day, Xiao Qingyue was commanding everyone to clean up the battlefield and tally the gains.

The biggest gain was collecting the "Heaven" and "Earth" tokens, which could open the treasure of the "Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Sect" before it split.

With this treasure, the losses caused by the battle between the two sects were all worth it, and it could even be said to be a profitable venture.

On the second day, Xiao Qingyue began to deal with the captured Mysterious Yellow Sect cultivators.

Those who needed to be killed were killed, and those who could be recruited were recruited.

Most of them were first imprisoned in the Enforcement Hall's dungeon, to be interrogated and observed before further action was taken.

On the third day, Xiao Qingyue piloted the sect's flying ship and took a few remaining high-ranking members of the sect to take over the Mysterious Yellow Sect in the Great Thousand Domain, seizing all the cultivators and treasures inside for themselves, and preparing in advance for the merger of the two sects.

During these three days, the elder who had deserted as a fugitive returned.

After his return, he remained the same elder as before, but his position in the sect was far inferior to Xiao Qingyue's.
