Chapter 968: Chapter 968: Going Along With the Mistake to Kill, Kill, Kill

Zhang Bin finally understood that figures like You Jiuxuan, terrifying Living Ghosts, surviving for three million years is no fluke, but due to their incomparable and horrifying power.

If one truly relied on strength to eliminate them, it would be utterly impossible, unless one cultivated for a millennia.

Thus, relying on wit is the only option.

Hopefully, the Tribulation Summoning Talisman will be able to kill him.

Yes, Gao Si had already transmitted the needed Tribulation Summoning Talisman to Zhang Bin.

It is now inside Zhang Bin’s Space Ring.

If Zhang Bin retrieves it now and attacks the Living Ghosts, he can kill many of them.

However, You Jiuxuan has not emerged yet, and is still within the coffin.

That makes it difficult to summon a Heavenly Tribulation upon him.

Actually, even if You Jiuxuan did emerge, Zhang Bin wouldn’t dare to act.

He’s not afraid to die, it’s just that he hasn’t destroyed the Demon Sect yet.

Even after destroying the Demon Sect, to obliterate the Youming Sect should not be done hastily; a perfect plan is needed to destroy all Living Ghosts.

"The Sect Leader is invincible in the world..."

"The Sect Leader’s might shakes the world..."

"..."

All the disciples of the Youming Sect shouted with utmost excitement and admiration.

"Ah..."

The Evil King let out an unwilling scream, "A soul at the Peak of Ascendant Realm? How is that possible? How is that possible? I am unwilling. The Sect Leader will definitely avenge us. Our Demon Sect is the most powerful sect, you all must die, you all must die, none will survive..."

He was indeed very strong; even when squashed like a meat patty, he hadn’t drawn his last breath and could still emit such a venomous voice.

"Die..."

You Jiuxuan’s chilling voice resounded, a surge of Blue Flame rose.

In an instant, it turned the Evil King and other Demon Sect Cultivators into ashes.

Scattered by the wind.

And that ghost hand disappeared underground in the desert in the blink of an eye.

As if it had never appeared.

The Demon Sect’s Evil King Division, whose might shook the world and killed countless, was thus extinguished by Zhang Bin’s plotting.

Only Zuo Xie managed to escape.

Equal to extinguishing a quarter of the Demon Sect’s strength.

You Jiuxuan, that giant of the Youming Sect, also retrieved the green pearl, releasing many Living Ghosts.

All the disciples of the Youming Sect were extremely excited, immensely proud.

Because in this battle, not a single disciple was lost.

Truly a complete victory.

Zhang Bin was equally thrilled.

Because, in the Void, countless Virtue Golden Light surged swiftly toward him.

"Merit Gold Seal, return to me..."

Zhang Bin shouted internally, the Merit Gold Seal transformed into a golden beam of light, returning to Zhang Bin’s brow, beginning to ravenously devour the congregated Virtue Golden Light.

The Virtue Golden Light seemed to go berserk, erupting from the Void like a spring, transforming into a river like the Yangtze, all funneling into Zhang Bin’s body.

Swallowed and refined by the Merit Gold Seal.

The Merit Gold Seal was undergoing mysterious changes.

Becoming more miraculous, more powerful.

"My heavens, how can there be so much Virtue Golden Light?"

Zhang Bin himself was completely stunned, his face filled with disbelief.

Internally, a monstrous wave rose up.

Could it be, what the Kunlun Elder said was true, killing Demon Sect Cultivators yields immense merit?

The more heinous the Demon Cultivators, the greater the merit for killing them.

So, exactly how many crimes did these few hundred Demon Cultivators commit?

Immediately, Zhang Bin felt something was amiss; it wasn’t just him who killed the Demon Sect Cultivators, most were killed by You Jiuxuan, and additionally, the Youming Sect disciples also killed over a hundred Demon Cultivators—they should have also received merit, right?

Shouldn’t Virtue Golden Light have concentrated on them as well?

Why can’t I see it?

Could it be, that the heavens know it was my idea?

Know that it was me driving the tiger to devour the wolf, and thus counted all the merit toward me?

No matter the reason, other disciples in the Youming Sect couldn’t see the massive Virtue Golden Light Zhang Bin received, not even You Jiuxuan felt it.

They continued to cheer, still seizing the Space Rings and Demonic Artifacts on the ground.

Though they couldn’t use the Demonic Artifacts, if refined with flames, they are excellent materials, which can be crafted into Magical Treasures.

"Changsheng, I just read the memories of their souls."

You Jiuxuan’s voice suddenly coldly echoed in Zhang Bin’s ear, "I obtained some secrets. The Demon Sect once obtained the Celestial Demon Technique, parts one, two, and three. A Demonic Sect Giant named Mo Yi cultivated to a high level, writing a terrifying Heavenly Demon Secret Manual. That is the Demon Sect’s inheritance. However, the real three tiers of Celestial Demon Technique were lost long ago. Even in the pre-golden civilization era, it was already lost."

"Is it really like this?" Zhang Bin feigned an expression of stupor, "Then didn’t we make a mistake? Shouldn’t have set traps to deal with the Demon Sect?"

"No, we must deal with the Demon Sect." You Jiuxuan said, "Because finding the Tome of Demonic Arts Part Two is very unlikely, very difficult. I can only first obtain the Heavenly Demon Secret Manual; that will certainly greatly aid my cultivation. Besides, the Demon Sect undoubtedly suspects you obtained the Celestial Demon Technique, Part One, that’s why they urgently tried to capture you. Otherwise, they would have waited until you gained more merit. Now, we’ve destroyed about a quarter of the Demon Sect’s power. Let’s simply wipe out the Demon Sect completely. Seize all their treasures and cultivation techniques, benefiting our Youming immensely."

"Right, right, we can only go with the flow, destroy the Demon Sect; a mountain can’t house two tigers. Both our Youming and Demon Sect cultivate techniques from the Celestial Demon Technique. By obtaining the Demon Sect’s cultivation techniques and treasures, our Serpent Clan will become stronger. And our chances of Ascension to the Immortal Realm will be greater." Zhang Bin promptly chimed in.

"Mo Tunyu is very strong, he really cultivated to the Ascension Realm Late Stage, but he cannot break through to the Peak of Ascendant Realm. He’s just a bit weaker than me because I’ve broken through once, only failing to survive Heavenly Tribulation. But, I lost my body, he still has his. So, our power is not too different, I can only attempt a sneak attack..." You Jiuxuan conveyed again.

Zhang Bin frequently nodded, occasionally coming up with a sly plan.

Finally, they completed their discussion.

Zhang Bin shouted loudly: "The Sect Leader orders, deploy the Thousand Ghosts Great Array, prepare to face the enemy..."

All Youming Sect disciples rapidly deployed a peculiar Great Array, surrounding Zhang Bin and the other two protectively at the center.

While Zhang Bin remained cross-legged under the protection of Chiang Xue and Feng Fei, continuing to meticulously feel the infusion of Virtue Golden Light.

The Virtue Golden Light gradually weakened, no longer as dense and terrifying as before.

Finally, it returned to the previous rate.

Clearly, the merit from killing more than three hundred Demon Sect disciples had completely been obtained by Zhang Bin.

"Roughly as much Virtue Golden Light as I’ve previously obtained, so much merit?"

Zhang Bin meticulously estimated, his heart quietly shocked.

He clearly understood how much merit he had achieved.

Developing various medicines curing terminal illnesses, saving countless lives.

Transforming the Taklamakan Desert into an oasis...
