Immortal Martial Saint, starting with unlimited stat points

Just as Zhou Chen was wondering, a series of hurried footsteps sounded.

Suddenly, a wail rang out around the Crimson Flame Martial Arts Hall.

"What's going on?" Gao Tian asked, frowning in confusion.

Before the group could go out to check, they heard a loud banging on the door.

The next moment, the heavy solid wood door of the Crimson Flame Martial Arts Hall suddenly exploded open, sending wood chips flying everywhere.

Outside the door, countless figures filed in.

The people were dressed in all sorts of clothes; there were merchants, porters, beggars, and even women and children.

At this moment, their eyes were flashing with an eerie bloodlust, and their skin was covered with large patches of grayish-white spots, like withered wood about to rot, yet they moved like the wind and possessed immense strength.

"The calamity has turned to ashes!" Zhou Chen's pupils contracted as he looked at these strange people dressed in ordinary people's clothes.

These crazed people were almost identical to the freaks in the Qiankun Realm who had been tainted by the Ashes of Calamity.

"Who dares to trespass on my Crimson Flame Martial Arts Hall!" Gao Tian and the others, who were still unaware of the situation, shouted.

Although the Crimson Flame Martial Arts School has dismissed many disciples, as long as Gao Tian, ​​the Marrow Cleansing Martial Artist, has not left, his strength will remain among the top in Xingde County, regardless of how other disciples are replaced.

This is the oppressive power of a high-level martial artist.

These people in front of him were clearly ordinary people who couldn't even kill a chicken.

Their gazes swept across the crowd, and they could even make out the faces of familiar vendors from the faces of a few of the strange people.

"Senior Brother, these people have been corrupted by the power of the Wusheng Sect and are no longer normal humans!" Zhou Chenyue struck repeatedly with his staff, smashing the heads of several monsters in succession.

These strange individuals, having received a reward of crimson light from the worship of the Eternal Mother, experienced a significant increase in strength.

However, it is not a significant threat to martial artists at the Inner Strength Realm or above.

After the monster died, several black threads shot towards Zhou Chen's face, but he dodged them by sidestepping.

The thread missed its target, losing all power to change direction, and struck the ground, corroding a large hole in the stone brick.

Seeing Zhou Chen's decisiveness, Gao Tian and the others quickly grabbed their long sticks, and within a few breaths, the Ash-faced monsters who had broken into the Crimson Flame Martial Arts Hall were wiped out.

"Junior Brother Zhou, what's going on here?" Yi Lianxing asked, looking at the corpse lying on the ground with a puzzled expression.

Clearly, among everyone, only Zhou Chen, who reacted immediately, knew something about the matter.

"Senior brothers and sisters, do you find these monsters familiar?" Zhou Chen looked at the thick black ash that had appeared on the monster corpses, his gaze heavy.

Gao Tian and the others examined it carefully, their eyes showing a hint of surprise. "It is extremely similar to the monsters cultivated by the Wusheng Sect."

"That's right, these monsters are actually ordinary humans who have been tainted by a special substance," Zhou Chen nodded. "In other words, they are no longer human."

As the group talked, the ashes on the strange man's corpse had completely devoured the flesh and blood, leaving only a decaying skeleton.

Unlike the Qiankun Realm, the Jiehui consumed flesh and blood at a much slower rate, and no greenish-blue coins were left behind after the monsters died.

"Perhaps those green coins were formed from the Heavenly Dao of the Qiankun Realm, for a desperate last stand?" Zhou Chen speculated.

-----------------

Outside the Crimson Flame Martial Arts School, the entire Xingde County had been transformed into a sea of ​​blood.

Although the previous struggles among the major families were intense, they were nothing more than infighting between various forces.

But these monsters, transformed from members of the Wusheng Cult, possess only the purest bloodlust, regardless of whether the person before them is a commoner or a martial artist.

Those who do not wear the robes of the Unborn Cult are heretics, prey to be hunted.

Even unconverted members of the Unborn Cult who have a wound and are covered in fresh blood will be targeted for attack.

Inside the city, Chi Chengzi looked at the statue of the Eternal Mother, which was still continuously converting the blood energy absorbed from the outside world into ashes and letting them dissipate, and a trace of fanaticism surged in his eyes.

With such a deity statue, what is there to worry about in the great undertaking of the Wusheng Sect?

After a while, Bai Buzi, wearing a white mask, floated over like a light, floating ghost.

"High Priest, all the ceremonies have been completed. We can now seize the county magistrate's seal." Bai Buzi looked on with pleasure as he watched a warrior being captured and killed by four or five enhanced Ash Beasts not far away.

The current matter of worshipping the Eternal Mother and transforming her followers into the Ash-like Monsters is what he has always wanted to do.

One day, he will be able to personally complete the transformation of the Ash Monster, instead of relying on the power of the ethereal Eternal Mother.

Within the Wusheng Sect, not everyone is a worshipper of the Eternal Mother.

Just like Bai Buzi, he joined the Wusheng Cult only because he had a lot of resources to verify his ideas.

Even now, having witnessed the almost miraculous power after the blood sacrifice of Wusheng, he still firmly believes that human strength, when pushed to its limits, can approach that of a god.

Chi Chengzi watched as the chief priests who presided over various sacrifices gathered here, and his lips moved as he said, "Storm the county government office and seize the official seal."

"As long as we seize the official seal and offer the dynasty's fortune within the entire county to the old mother, we will all have made a great contribution."

The next moment, he suddenly leaped into the air and flew straight towards the county government office.

Behind him, Bai Buzi and another warrior wearing a blue ghost mask followed closely.

Within the Wusheng Sect, another expert at the Enlightenment Realm has unexpectedly emerged.

-----------------

"Damn it!" Chen Wu blocked Li Youde's attack, his expression changing drastically. "It's the Wusheng Sect!"

Before he finished speaking, the blood-red light in the direction of the county government office suddenly intensified.

Several figures soared into the sky, the leader of whom was radiating golden light. He was none other than the leader of the Wusheng Sect whom they had encountered when they wiped out the Wusheng Sect's stronghold last time.

"They want to seize the official seal in the county government!" Chen Wu exclaimed, exchanging a glance with Li Youde.

Both men served as magistrates of Xingde County, and thus knew the importance of the official seal of a county.

When the Great Qian Emperor seized power amidst the struggle for supremacy, he established his rule over the nine provinces and then locked the Great Qian's destiny into the national jade seal.

The inscription on it reads "By the mandate of Heaven, may the dynasty live forever," signifying the eternal prosperity of the Qianlong Emperor's empire.

It is said that when the emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty ascended the throne, he would receive the blessing of the Great Qian Dynasty's fortune from the jade seal, and his strength would soar.

Therefore, every emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty is a flawless figure standing at the pinnacle of martial arts.

While landing in Xingde County doesn't grant the power to elevate one to the rank of county magistrate, it still allows one to utilize the Great Qian Qi within the county to withstand enemies several times stronger than oneself.

However, if the official seal falls into the hands of someone else, not only will the county magistrate be dismissed, but the entire yamen will also be implicated.

Seeing the current stance of the Wusheng Sect, it's clear they're not just trying to make Chen Wu suffer a setback.

"They want to seize the Great Qian Dynasty's fortune within the official seal!" Chen Wu's eyes narrowed as he shouted.

Upon hearing this, even several martial artists who had just awakened their inner energy stopped in their tracks.

Although they did not understand what methods the Wusheng Sect had to extract the Great Qian Qi from the official seal, they knew that as long as this happened!

Xingde County has lost its favorable fortune and will no longer enjoy peace and prosperity. Disasters will strike within a radius of hundreds of miles.

Most importantly, they'll all die by then!

According to the laws of the Great Qianlong era, if an official's seal of authority is stripped of its power and fortune, and the person nearby fails to offer assistance, he or she shall be executed without pardon.
