Starting with Taoist priests from Maoshan to cultivate immortality

Jiang Yu's lips curled up slightly:

"Haha, I didn't expect that two of the tasks would be completed as soon as they were released."

This was entirely due to my hard work and intelligence; it had absolutely nothing to do with luck.

His lips curled into a wider smile as he murmured:

"The Nine Heavens Divine Steps are a special footwork technique of Maoshan Taoists, which I have been lacking in the past."

I originally planned to cultivate when I went to the True Talisman Sect, but I didn't expect that the Heavenly Fate Treasure Talisman would be given to me directly. This is too much of a pampering.

"Hehe, I also gained 20 points of Dao Power. Combined with what I accumulated before, I can now infuse it into my cultivation technique."

Of course, the biggest gain was the blue bead given by the demon mother.

When you hold it up to the sunlight, you can see a golden thread flowing inside.

Jiang Yu pondered:

"She could easily defeat the Tree Granny's clone at the Golden Core stage, so her cultivation level is definitely not low; she might even be a Nascent Soul True Monarch."

As her beloved daughter, Yingning's situation is far from simple.

However, the demon mother seemed to be trapped and unable to escape.

Jiang Yu recalled her words and shook his head slightly. The thing that could trap the Ghost Mother was something he couldn't possibly reach right now.

Jiang Yu temporarily put the blue bead back into his storage bag and glanced at the chaotic battlefield.

The Ghost Realm has been breached, and all ghosts above the Foundation Establishment stage have been wiped out. The next step is to clean up the battlefield.

Zhao Teng awoke from his coma, came to Jiang Yu's side, and frowned, saying:

"Brother Jiang, things are not good."

His gaze swept over the five spirit boats flying in the sky:

"If they come under the guise of clearing out the remaining enemies of the Ghost Realm, I'm afraid the fruits of their labor will be taken away."

In the world of cultivation, resources are scarce and competition is fierce.

Although the disciples of the five major sects are righteous cultivators, they will inevitably fight for readily available cultivation resources; this is human nature.

The elders of their sect would also turn a blind eye.

The numerous independent cultivators are too weak to contend with the five major sects.

They went through so much trouble to break through the ghost realm.

Nearly a hundred monks died, and most of the others were injured.

In order to break through the Ghost Realm, they basically risked most of their wealth.

Most people are no longer able to participate in the Tianmen Mountain Secret Realm, and those who are seriously injured cannot even afford medical treatment.

The ghost domain released by Boss Xue undoubtedly helped the disciples of the five major sects eliminate many competitors.

They had already suffered heavy losses; if the spoils were taken away, it would be even worse, and many people would never be able to recover in their lifetime.

Jiang Yu understood the reasoning behind it and said earnestly:

"First, take the spoils from the Foundation Establishment stage ghosts and drag the corpses of the late Qi Refining stage evil ghosts into the tunnel with the Earth-Splitting Mole and take them away."

After the inventory is complete, the spoils will be distributed to everyone according to their contributions. This way, at least 80% of the spoils will be in our hands.

Jiang Yu's arrangements were very appropriate, and Zhao Teng nodded repeatedly:

"I'll send someone there right away."

He glanced at the many injured and dead rogue cultivators, his eyes reddening, and said:

"We've gone to such great lengths; if the disciples of the five major sects dare to shamelessly steal it, I'll fight them to the death!"

Wu Yun understood this principle and assured him from the side:

"Don't worry, if that happens, I will stop them in the name of the Demon Suppression Division."

However, he looked at the Foundation Establishment stage elder leading the spirit boat:

"In the end, I'm just a minor officer, and I might not be able to keep them in check."

However, Lord Zhou should have already received the news; once he arrives, he will definitely be able to keep them in check.

Jiang Yu didn't dare to delay and quickly went to collect the spoils of war.

He first came to the willow tree with human skin.

After the human skin transformed into Grandma Tree's clone, a huge tree root remained on the ground.

At the center, Jiang Yu found a glowing spiritual marrow.

The moment he touched it, Jiang Yu felt the surging spiritual energy inside.

"Just as I expected." He nodded.

"It can support the Ghost Realm and summon Golden Core stage ghost clones; it is definitely not an ordinary spiritual object."

Huang Shan's eyes lit up when he looked at the object.

"This is the essence of a spiritual vein; a single piece is worth tens of thousands of spirit stones."

Jiang Yu listened and nodded with a smile:

"Yes, it's definitely good stuff."

However, although tens of thousands of spirit stones were already a huge amount, it was still not enough for several hundred cultivators.

He then found Xue Laoda's remains and quickly extracted a storage bag from a piece of human skin and wood fragments.

Jiang Yu opened it and found a lot of rare and precious materials and pills inside, which he roughly estimated to be worth tens of thousands of spirit stones.

Huangshan reminded:

"That fat guy was able to usurp the position of the new patriarch of the Firetail Rat clan, so he must have accumulated a lot of wealth over the years."

During the battle just now, the fat man who was controlled by the Soul-Controlling Nail was personally suppressed by the old patriarch Huo Xin.

However, Jiang Yu had some concerns:

"Does the heart of fire possess such a broad mind?"

The thought had barely crossed his mind when a storage ring fell straight into his hand. It was Huo Xin who had given it to him. He stroked his beard and said:

"The things inside can't be considered the Firetail Rat clan's treasure, but rather everyone's spoils of war."

Jiang Yu looked on with admiration:

"After all, he is a senior figure who has been working in Tianmen Mountain for nearly a century. He can clearly distinguish right from wrong on major issues."

With Jiang Yu's skillful maneuvering, he pocketed most of the spoils.

Five spirit boats landed.

The disciples of Heming Mountain and Tianyi Sect did not take any action.

Disciples from Xuanzhen Temple, Liehuo Sect, and Shenquan Sect charged towards the Ghost Realm like hungry wolves, shouting all the while:

"Fellow Daoist, I'm here to help you!"

They speak in grand and righteous words, but in reality, they rush to the ground to loot the belongings of evil spirits or dead monks.

Therefore, he got into a quarrel with many independent cultivators.

Jiang Yu's expression was complicated upon witnessing such a disgraceful scene:

"The fact that the six major sects are all like this is quite different from what he imagined."

Guan Xi clutched her chest, frowning as she said:

"It has always been like this; the competition for cultivation resources among the hundreds of sects in Guobei County has always been fierce."

The disciples of these major sects are especially so; without a powerful backer, they have no choice but to fight tooth and nail to stand out.

Moreover, in recent years, demons and ghosts have run rampant, and the higher-ups of the six major sects have intentionally or unintentionally allowed their disciples to compete for power, leading to considerable infighting among them.

Jiang Yu glanced at the disciples of Crane Cry Mountain and Heavenly One Sect, and said:

"That's not entirely true. Neither of those two sects made a move. Among the six major sects, there are still some sects that care about their reputation."

Guan Xi shook his head and chuckled:

"Heming Mountain is the most skilled at alchemy and is very wealthy."

The Tianyi Sect values ​​medicine and is not good at martial arts, so it cannot compete with other sects.

They have their own ways of making money. For example, if you ask these seriously injured rogue cultivators to treat your injuries, they'll definitely rip you off.

Wu Yun began to speak:

"Not entirely. At least, none of the top geniuses from the five major sects were involved."

Jiang Yu looked up and saw four or five disciples remaining on the three sects' spirit boats.

They looked arrogant and disdainful of their fellow disciples who were robbing the spoils of the rogue cultivators.

Guanxi retorted:

"They are not much different from those who take advantage of the situation, except that they are not tempted by the immediate benefits."

Once they enter the Tianmen Mountain secret realm, these guys will probably be a hundred times more greedy than their fellow disciples.

"You bastard, get the hell out of my way!"

Suddenly, a fierce argument erupted in the Blackrock Labyrinth.
