Two realms! I have a Soul Refining Banner

Chapter 66 Eliminate the root of the problem to prevent future troubles

If it weren't for the Soul Refining Banner's main soul severely damaging the souls of both of them at the most crucial moment of the battle...

Even though these two Lingyuan Hall cultivators were seriously injured.

Even with their powerful cultivation at the seventh level of Qi Condensation, they still possessed the strength to turn the tables and kill themselves.

Chen Jie looked down at the two headless corpses on the ground.

His tense nerves finally relaxed completely.

The first rule for disciples of the White Bone Sect is etched in their hearts.

Cut the weeds and eliminate the roots to prevent future troubles!

As a cultivator of the demonic sect, he knew better than anyone else that he would never leave that beautiful female cultivator, who claimed to be a virgin, alive.

Don't say that the other party is a late-stage Qi Condensation Realm cultivator who harbors hatred.

Even if she were just an ordinary mortal with no cultivation, Chen Jie would never show her any mercy.

On the path of spiritual practice,

Who would keep a venomous snake with hidden fangs by their side, ready to turn on them at any moment?

call--!

Chen Jie let out a long breath, and his mind calmed down.

Within a little over a month, they were ambushed twice in succession.

A strong sense of crisis lingered in my mind and wouldn't go away.

Although he narrowly escaped death twice, he managed to turn danger into safety.

but,

Luck is ultimately unreliable; no one can guarantee that they will be so lucky next time.

In the battle just now, if I hadn't used all my trump cards and made thorough preparations, I wouldn't have survived.

They have probably already perished in the desolate mountains, their bodies and souls vanished.

Chen Jie pondered silently, carefully reviewing the battle he had just fought.

He was always cautious and careful in his actions, not only carefully disguising his appearance but also using a breath-concealing technique to hide his aura.

In addition, they applied camouflage liquid to cover their scent, taking precautions to the extreme.

In the end, however, he still couldn't escape being targeted by others and was ambushed halfway.

Besides having won the thousand-year-old Yin Wood that the other party wanted, what other reasons could there be for attracting the attention of others?

Could it be that the spirit stones I'm carrying are too conspicuous?

Totally impossible!

The entire black market auction was attended by wealthy cultivators from all sides.

His meager fortune was practically nonexistent; these spirit stones were utterly insignificant to him.

Ultimately, it all comes down to his own weak self-cultivation.

The food itself is the original sin!

Despite his low cultivation level of the fourth level of the Qi Condensation Realm, he carried a considerable amount of spirit stones.

To outsiders, he was a walking fat sheep, someone everyone could covet.

If one's cultivation reaches the Golden Core Realm, one can swagger through the bustling city with 100,000 spirit stones in hand.

It's likely that no one would dare to harbor even the slightest covetous thought.

Strength is the foundation for survival and self-preservation!

"Hiss—this injury is really serious."

Chen Jie gently moved his arms, feeling soreness and numbness in his muscles, stagnation of qi and blood, and general weakness.

Just now, in a series of magical battles, I withstood the Blood Fiend Talisman and forcefully activated the magical artifacts and talismans.

My mana is almost completely depleted!

Even though he successfully killed two Lingyuantang disciples, he was also severely injured and his vital energy was greatly depleted.

He stepped forward, collected the storage bags left behind by the two, and looted all the valuables.

He then dragged the two corpses deeper into the cave.

boom--!

The fire was ignited and the body was completely burned to ashes, leaving no trace.

Destroy the body and cover up the evidence!

These are the fundamental principles for the conduct and behavior of demonic cultivators.

Never leave a trace, and never leave yourself any future troubles.

These two were bound by a shared obsession in life, wanting to become Daoist partners.

After their deaths, their ashes were intermingled, which fulfilled their final wish.

After handling all the funeral arrangements, Chen Jie remained calm and composed.

He looked around carefully, making sure there were no flaws or traces left, before turning around and quietly leaving.

Within a few breaths, the desolate mountain cave returned to deathly silence.

It was as if the life-or-death struggle that had just taken place had never happened.

Taking advantage of the darkness of night, Chen Jie set off towards the White Bone Sect Market.

However, after traveling less than ten miles, his injuries flared up, his blood and qi surged, and he could no longer sustain the journey.

He immediately stopped and found a secluded cave deep in the mountains to rest for the time being.

Om-!

With a thought, Chen Jie activated the jade pendant in his mind.

In an instant,

His figure disappeared into the cave and returned to Earth.

-

Blue Star, Baiyun District, Guangfu City, underground storage room of Roufeng Slaughterhouse.

This place was originally a cold storage warehouse for a slaughterhouse.

It had already been abandoned and left idle before this.

Chen Jie meticulously renovated it, turning it into his own private training chamber.

A high wall was built to isolate the area within a 50-meter radius.

Above the basement is the current cold chain warehouse, located in a very remote area.

He deliberately moved his office from the sixth floor to the ground floor, setting up two layers of protective arrays inside and out to prevent outside prying eyes and disturbances.

The entire underground storage room was spacious and brightly lit.

The array's restrictions can prevent the internal malevolent energy from leaking out, thus concealing its presence.

He even placed the main flag of the Soul-Gathering Array here.

The soul-gathering arrays in all the slaughterhouses of Guangfu City absorb and gather the evil spirits of the dead every day. After the array flags are collected and stored in the warehouse, they all converge in the main flag here.

After careful renovation, this place is the most suitable for him to cultivate in seclusion without being disturbed by the outside world.

Nine o'clock in the morning,

All the slaughterhouse workers had left for the day, and the underground chamber was silent.

Inside the secret room,

Chen Jie's skin was flushed and burning hot, and sweat dripped down his body like rain.

Impurities and grime accumulated in the body over the years are expelled through the pores.

He could clearly feel as if thousands of ants were gnawing and drilling into his muscles, bones, and blood vessels, causing a sensation of soreness, numbness, and pain.

Chen Jie suppressed his discomfort and focused all his energy on circulating the "White Bone Heart Sutra".

The true essence circulates endlessly, condensing and gathering magical power into the dantian and sea of ​​qi again and again.

Swish!

He took out a bone-cleansing and healing pill, tilted his head back, and swallowed it in one gulp.

This pill is an exclusive healing elixir of the White Bone Sect.

It has an excellent effect on the recovery of injuries of Qi Condensation Realm cultivators, and each one is worth two hundred low-grade spirit stones.

Chen Jie was prepared; he always kept a bottle in his storage bag, containing a total of five, just in case.

boom--!

The pill entered his stomach, and its medicinal power erupted instantly, causing a roaring sound in his mind.

next moment,

His body trembled violently as an unbearable pain swept over him.

It felt as if the muscles, bones, skin, and flesh were being forcibly dismantled and reassembled, with a tearing sensation spreading throughout the body.

In an instant,

His body felt as heavy as a mountain, and he was sore and weak that he could hardly move.

The medicinal properties travel through the meridians, continuously refining and strengthening the body's meridians.

A powerful, malevolent aura erupted from his dantian and spread throughout his body's meridians and limbs.

Chen Jie continuously circulated the "White Bone Heart Sutra" throughout his body, guiding the evil energy to flow through his entire body.

Ultimately, all the energy returned to the dantian and sea of ​​qi, converging into a lake of magical power.

This dantian, or sea of ​​qi, is the core source of a cultivator's magical power in the Qi Condensation Realm.

Although in the eyes of a late-stage Qi Condensation cultivator, such a Qi Sea is insignificant and still weak.

However, the Qi Sea is the foundation of a cultivator.

Only by cultivating the dantian and qi sea to the ninth level of perfection can one condense the Dao platform, establish a foundation, and step into a completely new realm of cultivation.

With Chen Jie's current cultivation level, he is still far from the perfect ninth level of Qi Condensation.

The path to foundation building is even more distant and unattainable.

The medicinal power continuously washes over the Qi Sea, constantly nourishing the body's meridians.

After an unknown amount of time, the roaring in Chen Jie's mind gradually subsided, and the pain slowly faded.

Chen Jie slowly opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing in them, his expression invigorated.

"His injuries have completely healed, and he even broke through to the fifth level of the Qi Condensation Realm!"

He took a deep breath and a smile appeared on his face.

This life-or-death struggle turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

After taking the Bone Cleansing and Healing Pill to heal his injuries, he unexpectedly broke through his cultivation level. His dantian and qi sea were greatly enhanced, his magic power became more refined and profound, and his strength increased significantly.

"The Bone-Cleansing and Healing Pill truly lives up to its reputation; its effects are extraordinary."

"Next, I need to break through to the sixth level of the Qi Condensation Realm as soon as possible."

Chen Jie carefully put away the remaining healing pills, and then took out the Soul Refining Banner.

At this moment, the Soul Refining Banner was covered with fine cracks, the runes on the banner surface were dim, and its power had dropped significantly.

Awooo—!

The nine main spirits within the banner let out a mournful roar.

The roar echoed throughout the underground chamber, filled with a chilling aura of resentment.

Upgrading the Soul Refining Banner is urgent!

This is his most important and vital magical artifact, used for both self-defense and combat.

After Chen Jie recovered from his injuries and broke through his cultivation level, he achieved a breakthrough.

His first task was to begin refining and upgrading the Soul Refining Banner.
