Gentlemen, it's time to enter the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls.

Chapter 50 Fellow Daoist, this magic weapon is truly dangerous.
When Chen Ye heard the cry of "acting on behalf of Heaven," he immediately praised himself, saying, "I knew I was right."

This formation draws in a huge amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth; it's really quite a spectacle.

Moreover, many people have died here, and the overwhelming resentment was directly awakened by Chen Ye, shining like a torch.

Mo Ci had warned more than once that killing to practice martial arts could not be done on a large scale; this was no longer the era when the Demon Lord had the final say.

Back when demons were rampant, killing to practice martial arts was commonplace. They would slaughter a village here and raise an entire city there. Human life was cheap as a dog, which resulted in more and more demons emerging.

Later, when killing mortals became insufficient, the demon lords finally spoke up, ordering the lesser demons below to restrain themselves a bit.

Back then, this was how the demons greeted each other.

"How many did you kill?"

"Several hundred, I guess."

"What about yesterday?"

……

What resentment soaring to the heavens? At that time, when my spiritual eyes looked around, the whole world was filled with resentment.

Those days are gone forever.

Whenever the demons make a fuss, it's like spilling ink on a blank sheet of paper; it's clearly visible even from hundreds of miles away, and it's perfectly normal for it to attract the attention of other cultivators.

However, the Incense Burning Sect?

It seems to be one of the five major righteous sects, rumored to be the most chaotic of the famous righteous sects in terms of lineage, and especially skilled in alchemy.

Judging from the fact that this person's magical artifacts are alchemy furnaces, it seems to be true.

Since they were from a reputable sect, Chen Ye didn't want to fall out with them and was about to explain, but the newcomer didn't give him a chance to speak.

A blazing flame shot out from the bronze alchemy furnace, flying towards Chen Ye like a long snake.

Chen Ye reached into his storage bag and grabbed two "Wind Summoning" talismans.

Chen Ye prepared a lot of these talismans to deal with Jiang Shiyue, but he never expected that they would still be useful even after Jiang Shiyue was dead.

However, Chen Ye did not use these two talismans to disperse the fire snake.

Before understanding the principles behind your opponent's spell, avoid making hasty decisions. If the wind fails to disperse the fire serpent, you'll be in trouble.

Therefore, Chen Ye used the two talismans on himself.

Chen Ye lightly touched the ground with his toes, and two "Wind Summoning" talismans exploded in his palms. The violent shockwave propelled him backward three zhang into the air, barely avoiding the crimson fire snake spewed from the bronze furnace. The flame grazed the hem of his clothes, burning a scorch mark about ten zhang long on the ground, and the air was immediately filled with the acrid smell of sulfur and bone ash.

"Huh? That's it?"

Chen Ye was slightly surprised to see the marks left by the fire snake; it was much less powerful than he had expected.

It's not flexible enough, it won't explode, and it's not a high-temperature fire that can ignite everything instantly... Isn't this just ordinary fire?

Chen Ye thought to himself that he could also make fire, but it wouldn't be that convenient. Was this all the disciples of the Incense Burning Sect could do?
Perhaps subconsciously regarding Su Chunyi as the average level of those disciples from major sects, and considering that she had recently killed two Tongxuan Realm cultivators, Chen Ye developed a serious misjudgment of the combat level of normal cultivators.

But Wei Changsheng didn't think so.

He felt that his move had forced the little devil to flee in a sorry state.

Although the fire was ordinary fire, it still charred the flesh of cultivators who had not undergone the tempering of the body with the power of the Qi and the raging flames, and the intense pain of being burned was enough to make them lose the ability to resist.

Wei Changsheng could tell from Chen Ye's radiant appearance that he was a beginner in the Qi Sea Realm and had not even completed his spiritual tempering. How could he be a match for him?

Having missed his first attack, Wei Changsheng activated his magic weapon again, and another fire snake flew out, this time circling around and about to crash into Chen Ye.

However, Chen Ye did not repeat the same trick. Instead, he cast the Wind-Summoning Talisman, and a gust of wind caused the fire snake to change direction.

"As expected, it's just ordinary fire."

Regardless of whether this person underestimated him or feigned weakness, Chen Ye decided to retaliate.

Under Chen Ye's mental control, the blue-faced demon swung the chains in its hand at Wei Changsheng.

The rusty iron hook flew faster than a fire snake, seemingly showing no mercy, and went straight for Wei Changsheng's heart.

Wei Changsheng sneered disdainfully. His body, tempered by the Qi and Sha, was not afraid of a mere iron hook.

However, he wouldn't be so arrogant as to physically resist the magic of the demonic sect. Wei Changsheng slapped the Five Immortals Furnace under his seat, turned his body, and used the furnace to block the iron hook of the blue-faced evil spirit.

In Wei Changsheng's view, at most he would suffer some shock. This Five Immortals Furnace was no ordinary magic weapon; even the Incense Burning Sect would consider it a top-quality treasure.

For an alchemy furnace, sturdiness is paramount, aside from anything else. Wei Changsheng was confident enough in the Five Immortals Furnace's robustness; even Su Chunyi's sword might not be able to damage his magical artifact, let alone a mere Qi Sea Realm spell…

As the iron hook collided with the Five Immortals Furnace, Wei Changsheng's confident smile froze instantly.

There was no expected impact, and there was no sound.

The iron hook passed directly through the Five Immortals Furnace and arrived in front of Wei Changsheng.

Wei Changsheng thought the iron hook was an illusion, but the metallic stench and putrid smell that hit him were so clear.

It's too late to hide now.

Wei Changsheng's pupils contracted sharply, and he instinctively leaned back, but the iron hook still pierced his shoulder blade.

Wei Changsheng originally thought that this thing would also pass through his body, but he only felt a pain in his shoulder and was hit solidly.

His body, tempered by the fierce energy, should have been incredibly tough, and ordinary swords and knives would hardly be able to harm him. Yet, this iron hook easily pierced his bones, pulling him off the Five Immortals Furnace.

The excruciating pain rendered Wei Changsheng incapable of thinking.

He could swear to God that this pain was just like the pain he had endured when he was undergoing the Gang Sha Body Refinement, no, it was even more painful and terrifying.

Wei Changsheng disregarded his image, writhing on the ground in agony and letting out screams of pain.

But the more he rolled around, the tighter the chains binding him became. Though they were illusory objects, they were able to firmly lock Wei Changsheng in place until he could no longer move.

The Five Immortals Furnace lost control and crashed to the ground, creating a large crater.

It's really sturdy; it doesn't look deformed at all, and there doesn't even seem to be a scratch.

Chen Ye frowned as he looked at Wei Changsheng, who was rolling on the ground.

The power of these iron hooks and chains is calculated according to sins. Chen Ye, that little devil, only took a punch to the chest. How could a disciple of such a righteous sect be rolling on the ground in pain?
Who is the real villain?

Could it be that this kid is an imposter?
Chen Ye didn't care what he was yelling about. He waved the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, sending the vengeful spirits rushing up to strip him naked.

Unexpectedly, the fierce and violent vengeful spirit hesitated when faced with this blue-faced demon, and even Yang Chongguang, a veteran who had fought bloody battles, dared not step forward.

Yang Chongguang even said, "My benefactor, your supernatural powers are terrifying. My body is weak and I can't move."

Chen Ye hadn't expected that the evil spirits condensed by this secret technique would also have the effect of intimidating vengeful spirits, so he had no choice but to put away the Ten Thousand Soul Banner and run to the man's side.

But after this delay, Wei Changsheng's pain lessened considerably, and he was able to move around with difficulty.

Chen Ye quickly controlled the blue-faced demon and used chains to bind the boy several more times.

Then he howled even louder.

Chen Ye laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist, please don't be offended. I was just trying to protect myself."

"Damn you, you fiend!" Wei Changsheng roared hoarsely, "I will kill you!"

Chen Ye smiled and extended his hands to him.

"what are you going to do?!"

Wei Changsheng was unable to move and could only watch helplessly as Chen Ye took his storage bag away.

"You dare steal my Incense Burning Sect's treasure?!"

Wei Changsheng struggled with all his might, but the chains held him firmly in place, preventing him from even moving his body.

Chen Ye explained, "Fellow Daoist, please don't be offended. After all, no one knows what treasures a cultivator might pull out of their storage bag. I'm just protecting myself."

After saying this, Chen Ye took off the jade pendant from his waist.

“This jade pendant is full of wood-elemental spiritual energy, with the upper trigram Dui and the lower trigram Kun, representing the essence of the earth. It might be able to summon wood spikes to pierce my body. I will keep it for you for the time being.”

Wei Changsheng shouted, "Nonsense! This is for self-defense..."

But Chen Ye wouldn't listen to him and took off his hairpin again.

"It's made of petrified wood, a good thing... oh no, a very dangerous magical artifact."

"Your clothes are made of fire-resistant cloth and silkworm silk, making them impervious to water and fire... Well, it's possible that if someone were wrapped in them, they would turn into pus in no time. Let me put them away for you."
