Chapter 3383 Dividing the Northern Star Region

Formerly a sacred site.

Now there are millions of corpses lying in wait.

Numerous streams of blood flowed, staining the earth.

Shen Changqing remained indifferent, showing no emotion whatsoever towards what was happening before him.

This is the great struggle!

There's nothing worth mentioning.

He won this time, so the one who fell here was a cultivator from the Bright Light Holy Land.

If he is the one who is defeated one day, then his fate will be no different from that of other cultivators.

I don't want to lose!

Don't want to die!

Then we have no choice but to fight for it with all our might.

As Shen Changqing stepped atop the sacred ground and looked down upon the entire war, the bloody scene brought him an unprecedented sense of calm.

"In the great calamity, one step back means an endless abyss... Although the Bright Light Holy Land has been destroyed, Venerable Jue Ming is still alive and remains a threat!"

Think of this.

A cold glint appeared in his eyes.

Almost certainly.

When the news of the destruction of the Holy Land of Bright Light reaches the other side, it will surely drive them mad.

A raging and crazed ancient demigod poses a greater threat than an ordinary ancient demigod.

and so.

If we don't take action, then so be it.

If you make a move.

Shen Changqing wanted to nip all threats in the bud.

at this time.

A figure slowly appeared.

"Holy Lord!"

"How's it going?"

"After searching the entire treasure vault of the Bright Light Holy Land, we found eighty-six top-grade immortal stones. Please take a look, Holy Lord!"

As Rahu the Demon God spoke, he presented a jade box with both hands.

Shen Changqing reached out and grabbed the jade box, then opened it, and an astonishing burst of immortal energy immediately erupted out.

There were many jade stones quietly placed there, each containing a terrifying Daoist aura and a vast and boundless immortal energy.

This is the kind of jade.

Shen Changqing was naturally familiar with it.

The best fairy stone!

“You did a great job!”

A smile appeared on Shen Changqing's face.

Eighty-six top-grade immortal stones—the trip was definitely worthwhile.

Shen Changqing didn't care much about the fact that the Xuanqing Immortal Sect had more than a hundred top-grade immortal stones, while the Mingguang Holy Land, whose strength was far superior to that of the Xuanqing Immortal Sect, only had less than a hundred top-grade immortal stones.

In his opinion.

This is quite normal.

In any case, the Mingguang Holy Land was established in a relatively short period of time, while the Xuanqing Immortal Sect has been passed down from ancient times to the present day, so its foundation is naturally not so simple.

Moreover.

The best fairy stone.

It is necessary for cultivating longevity.

Even if the Bright Light Holy Land collects a lot of top-grade immortal stones, that person still needs to consume a lot for cultivation, so in the end, not many will be able to stay.

Eighty-six top-grade immortal stones.

To be honest.

Shen Changqing was quite satisfied.

Before destroying the Holy Land of Bright Light, he had prepared for the worst, which was that he would not be able to find even a single top-grade immortal stone.

and so.

Now that he has so many top-grade immortal stones in his hands, how could Shen Changqing not be satisfied?

Once he has refined all these immortal stones, Shen Changqing believes that his strength will be able to advance further.

Even if the improvement isn't significant, it's enough for them.

after all.

Shen Changqing's current strength is already comparable to that of a half-saint.

Before one's cultivation reaches the semi-saint realm, even a slight improvement in strength is unimaginable for other Immortal Emperors.

……

Ten days later.

Yan Wuxiang led his army back.

The army suffered few casualties this time, and all the cultivators exuded a murderous aura, indicating that they had experienced many fierce battles.

Upon his return, Yan Wuxiang immediately went to meet Shen Changqing.

"Holy Lord!"

"Has everything been resolved?"

"All 168 forces in the Northern Star Region that submitted to the Bright Light Holy Land have been completely eradicated. The resources of these forces are all here. Please take a look, Holy Lord!"

Yan Wuxiang took out an ancient cauldron. Shen Changqing glanced at it, and his eyes pierced through the cauldron's restrictions, directly seeing the scene inside.

This ancient cauldron isn't of very high quality; it can only be considered a half-step Emperor Immortal artifact.

But inside lies a vast and mysterious place, where a large amount of cultivation resources are piled up, forming approximately three thousand small mountains, each a hundred feet tall.

There are nearly two thousand small mountains of immortal stones alone.

These immortal stones are not all high-grade immortal stones. Low-grade immortal stones are the most numerous, followed by mid-grade immortal stones, and then high-grade immortal stones.

and so.

These immortal stones may seem numerous, but if they were all exchanged for high-grade immortal stones, they would actually amount to little.

And then.

Other cultivation resources.

For example, medicinal materials, elixirs and cultivation techniques, as well as some additional divine weapons and artifacts.

Although each faction may lack substantial resources, the combined resources of all 186 factions are still quite considerable.

Shen Changqing nodded: "You did a good job!"

"I am only doing this for the Holy Lord!"

Yan Wuxiang dared not take credit and his face was full of humility.

Looking at the other party's appearance, Shen Changqing pondered for a moment and then said, "The forces that should be destroyed have been destroyed almost completely. Although the Northern Star Region is not bad, it is too far away from the Heavenly Star Region. Taking over this Immortal Region will make it difficult for the Heavenly Demon Holy Land to take care of both sides."

Now that a great calamity has arrived, it is not necessarily better to control more immortal realms.

Go and make arrangements for the army to withdraw from the Northern Star Region within three days.

"Yes!"

Yan Wuxiang responded respectfully.

the end.

His expression showed a slight hesitation.

"News has come from the outside world that the Eternal Life Sect has once again erupted into a dark upheaval, affecting hundreds of high-level immortal realms. I wonder if the Holy Lord has any countermeasures for this matter?"

"We don't need to concern ourselves with the affairs of the Eternal Life Cult. The outbreak of the Dark Turmoil may not necessarily be a bad thing for us."

The destruction of numerous forces in the Northern Star Region will inevitably attract attention from all sides, and the actions of the Eternal Life Sect will certainly draw a lot of attention away from the Holy Land.

Right now, the most important thing for the Holy Land is the situation in the Eastern Abyss Region!

Shen Changqing's words made Yan Wuxiang's expression understand.

indeed.

Whether or not the Dark Turmoil breaks out, it really has no impact on the Heavenly Demon Holy Land.

At least--

That's it for now.

After all, although the Dark Turmoil had spread far and wide over the past hundreds of thousands of years, it had not affected the Tianxing Domain much.

This way.

The threat of darkness and turmoil was naturally not so great.

Compared to the Holy Land of Light, the Dark Turmoil ranks even lower.

"What does the Holy Lord intend to do about the Eastern Abyss Region?" Yan Wuxiang asked.

"Those below the level of Immortal Emperor shall return to the Heavenly Demon Holy Land. The other Immortal Emperors shall accompany me to the Eastern Abyss Region to join forces with the three Great Immortal Sects of Longevity to slay Venerable Jueming!"

Shen Changqing's face was filled with murderous intent.

Upon hearing this, Yan Wuxiang naturally went to make the arrangements.

……

Three days later.

The army left the Holy Land of Bright Light.

All the forces that were watching the Heavenly Demon Holy Land's army instinctively breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this situation.

In the past two weeks, the Heavenly Demon Holy Land has almost wiped out the entire Northern Star Region. Any force with the foundation of a half-step Immortal Emperor has been purged.

This battle.

This caused the strength of the Northern Star Region to plummet to rock bottom.

Despite having the title of a high-level immortal realm, its overall strength has fallen to the level of a low-level immortal realm.

Amidst such bloodshed, those forces in the Northern Star Region who were fortunate enough to survive were secretly terrified, fearing that at any moment, the Heavenly Demon Holy Land's executioner's blade would fall upon their heads.

Until now.

I witnessed the departure of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land's army.

Only then did these forces feel a sudden reduction in pressure.

however.

Before these forces could truly relax their guard, the Immortal Realm's defenses crumbled, and numerous armies openly invaded, plunging the barely restored peace of the Northern Star Region into another bloodbath.

A high-level immortal realm whose strength has been greatly diminished is an irresistible temptation for other immortal emperor forces.

If the Northern Star Region still retains some of its strength, these forces will not dare to act rashly.

but now--

Almost all the powerful figures in the Northern Star Region perished, and the top forces were completely wiped out.

This way.

The forces of other immortal realms would not stand idly by.

If one is even a fraction of a second slower in seizing this opportunity to divide up a high-level immortal realm, one will not even have the right to a taste of the spoils.

Neither the local forces of Shenfeng Prefecture nor the forces of Yunjin Prefecture would miss such an opportunity.

When various forces step into the Northern Star Region, intending to completely divide this immortal realm, the outbreak of war becomes inevitable.

but.

These matters have little to do with the Heavenly Demon Holy Land.

Shen Changqing felt no emotional reaction after learning about the events in the Northern Star Region.

With all forces destroyed, the resources of many respectable forces in the Northern Star Region have all fallen into the hands of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land. As for the remaining resources of the Immortal Realm, Shen Changqing naturally wouldn't care too much.

Whether other forces divide it up or not has no impact on the Heavenly Demon Holy Land.

now.

In Shen Changqing's view.

The most important thing is to wipe out the remnants of the Bright Light Holy Land in the Eastern Abyss Region and completely destroy this force.

……

Not long after the Northern Star Region fell into chaos, news of the destruction of the Bright Light Holy Land had already spread far and wide.

When the news reached many immortal realms, they were all somewhat taken aback, thinking they had misheard.

After all, they were well aware that Venerable Jue Ming and the army of the Bright Light Holy Land were attacking the Eastern Abyss Domain. The war in that Immortal Domain had broken out and had not yet truly determined a winner.

result.

The situation in the Eastern Abyss Region was still unclear when news of the destruction of the Bright Light Holy Land arrived, which inevitably seemed unbelievable.

But as they gained a deeper understanding, these forces finally understood.

"What a powerful force! The Heavenly Demon Holy Land has completely uprooted the Bright Light Holy Land. It seems that this force is determined to fight the Bright Light Holy Land to the death!"

"If this news gets out, things are going to get quite lively in the Eastern Abyss Region..."

Many forces were shocked by the decisiveness of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land. Before this, no one expected that the Heavenly Demon Holy Land would go directly to the Northern Star Region and uproot the entire foundation of the Bright Light Holy Land before Venerable Jue Ming had fallen.

The consequences of doing so are, of course, severe.

Once the Mingguang Holy Land army led by Venerable Jueming completely controls the situation in the Eastern Abyss Region, then the Heavenly Demon Holy Land will have to bear the wrath of an ancient half-saint.

Even so, the Heavenly Demon Holy Land still did it.

Such decisive measures were naturally unexpected by other forces. (End of Chapter)
