Chapter 685: Half A Year Has Passed

The half year period has flown by. With the opening of the rift between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm, the cultivation of the major sects and schools in the mortal world has progressed rapidly.

Those experts who had been stuck at the peak of the Third Realm for a long time have stepped into the Second Realm after half a year of accumulation.

What is even more impressive is that some experts at the peak of the Second Realm have grasped the Dao Principle and entered the rumored realm of Transcendence within this half year!

Among them, the South Domain Nan Tianlong was the most notable.

Of course, the increase in the vitality of this world could not only benefit the human race.

The strength of the demons and ghosts in this world has also greatly increased. In order to compete for resources in the mortal realm, the level of calamity caused by demons and ghost troubles rose, and their appearances became more frequent.

In addition, the beings from the Netherworld and the Immortal Realm would sometimes break through the seal and descend into the world.

Southern Region, Jinyang City.

Based on Li Yang’s previous remarks, this city has basically become the gathering place for the most powerful experts in the Southern Domain.

After all, this place was uniquely blessed, and the concentration of Netherworld Demonic Qi was far superior to other places, which was very beneficial to the cultivation of the Hundred Ghost Dao Lineage.

In addition, the ghost soldiers and generals from the Netherworld Realm would occasionally descend on this place through the rifts, and of course they require people to deal with them.

Emperor Ming directly issued an edict and offered substantial rewards to incentivize the powerful experts of the Southern Domain to go to Jinyang City and fight the enemies.

Over time, Jinyang City has essentially become the number one city in the Southern Domain.

The bustling Moonlit Pavilion was full of people. The powerful demon-slaying cultivators and wandering experts there were boastfully exchanging their latest battle results and taking great pleasure in doing so.

“Recently, I stumbled upon a rift in the north of Jinyang City, and three ghost soldiers emerged from it-one at the Sixth Realm and two at the Seventh Realm! “

“With my Fifth Realm cultivation, I was more than able to deal with them. However, these guys are so tough that you have to kill each of them several times before you can kill them. I was completely exhausted.”

The rifts are the passageways between the demon realm and the mortal world. Whenever they appear, the Void warps and opens a rift, hence the name.

“Who doesn’t know? These guys are all tough nuts to crack. But if you can slay one of them, the rewards from Emperor Ming and the Demon Slaying Department are truly enticing.“

“If you belong to the Hundred Ghosts Dao, you can even absorb the pure demon qi of the Netherworld from their bodies, which will rapidly improve your cultivation.”

At that moment someone sighed, “But no matter how many benefits there are, you have to know your limits. Otherwise, if you earn with your life but spend it, won’t it be a waste?”U//ppTodated fr/o/m nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)\/m

“Just like those ghost generals, their strength is comparable to the Twelve Divine Generals. And I’ve heard that they have a certain divine ability that gives them life force far beyond that of ordinary people. It is truly hopeless for an ordinary Third Realm cultivator to face them.”

A member of the Demon Slaying Department said in a deep voice, “I heard Master Si Zheng say that their divine ability is called ‘Plucking Stars and Seizing Life’.”

“What does that mean?” the crowd asked curiously.

The Demon Slaying Department member drank a cup of wine and said seriously, “In the Netherworld Demonic Realm, there is a Yellow Spring River. Those ghost soldiers and generals who want to descend to this world must cross the Yellow Spring River.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his huge hand, the size of a city gate, and brought it crashing down on Jinyang City.

Everyone watched this scene with fear in their hearts.

“Sigh.” A voice from a corner of the inn sighed softly.

Although everyone’s eyes were fixed on the imposing Batu, they failed to notice a figure rising gracefully.

This figure flew to the window, stood on the sill, and then drifted toward the city walls where Batu stood, exuding an immortal elegance.

When the crowd recognized the elegant figure dressed in black, they exclaimed, “It’s Master Qin!”

Batu looked down at the tiny Qin Feng and sneered contemptuously, “You insignificant insect, you dare to challenge me? Die!”

Qin Feng did not say a word. His Qi surged, his eyes turned amber, and he opened his right palm, summoning a miniature Crimson Lightning Qilin.

Suddenly, the sky darkened as a crushing pressure emanated from Qin Feng, causing even the mighty Batu to tremble.

Seeing the lightning qilin in Qin Feng’s hand, Batu stammered, “This is the Annihilating Thunder! No wonder the ghost generals I sent here earlier vanished without a trace – they were all killed by you!”

With that, Batu turned and fled into the eyes of the bewildered onlookers.

Even if the ghost generals could cross the Yellow Spring River and use the divine ability to “Pluck Stars and Seize Life,” their endless demonic calamity stars would still be extinguished in an instant in the face of the annihilating thunder.

Qin Feng said lightly: “Be quieter.”

The miniature Qilin nuzzled Qin Feng’s palm before letting out a thunderous roar towards the sky. A massive crimson lightning bolt came crashing down on Batu.

“Nooo!!!”

In the blink of an eye, everything fell silent.

Qin Feng looked at the huge crater on the outer plains and sighed helplessly – this Qilin had no concept of restraint.

The matter should have been settled, but the emptiness rippled slightly, and a distant voice spoke near Qin Feng’s ear, “So that’s it.”

The voice came and went quickly.

Qin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering who the owner of that voice was.

He did not dwell on it, but instead took out a letter from his robes, his face filled with a blissful smile.

Half a year has passed, and his two wives at home have been pregnant for nearly ten months.

“It’s time to go back.” Qin Feng looked to the north and murmured to himself.
