Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 518: Chapter 518 The Demon Core is Scattered Chapter 518: Chapter 518 The Demon Core is Scattered Everyone looked over.

They saw Jiang Fan and seven masked figures in black robes, speeding from the horizon.

Before long.

They stepped over the corpses on Boundary Mountain and made their way to the peak.

“Jiang Fan! Are you hurt? Let me check you!”

Wen Hongyao quickly ran over to examine Jiang Fan.

She found that he was unharmed, and her heart finally relaxed.

Elders, disciples of various sects, and Lei Zhenhai all sighed in relief.

The person had finally returned safely.

While Jiang Fan exchanged pleasantries with them.

Jian Linyuan and the others looked with shock at this incredibly brutal battlefield.

The army of over eight thousand dead corpses covered the slopes.

Every inch of the ground was filled with bones.

They simply couldn’t believe it.

How did the few people on Boundary Mountain manage to slaughter such a vast army of dead corpses?

And under such despairing circumstances, how did they win this war?

At this moment.

They realized that there was no clean patch of snow left on the peak of Boundary Mountain.

On every stone brick.

On every wall surface.

Over every patch of snow.

Crimson blood was splattered everywhere.

In the corners.

Corpses were neatly piled up, densely packed.

There were men, women, young, and old.

Some had lost half their heads, some still had Demon Beast teeth stuck in their throats, and some had half their bodies bitten off.

Some were reduced to nothing more than a shapeless mass of trampled flesh, unrecognizable.

They couldn’t imagine.

The pain they must have endured before death.

Jian Linyuan’s heart twitched and ached.

He silently took down the bag of Demon Cores from his back and said in a deep voice:

“Fellow members of the Nine Sects, you have worked hard.”

“These Demon Cores, which I unexpectedly obtained, are all for you.”

He held up the bag, distributing the Demon Cores to the remaining disciples one by one.

Leng Qingzhu’s eyes reddened as well.

She had anticipated that the battle at Boundary Mountain would be brutal.

But she hadn’t expected it to be this catastrophic.

As a disciple of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, she hadn’t managed to help the Nine Sects disciples in any way.

Yet she had still fought with them for Merit, taking the treasure resources they had exchanged for with their lives.

The immense shame made her feel unworthy.

She also untied her bundle and distributed all the Demon Cores.

Shang Shiqiu and the other four seniors were equally ashamed.

They silently distributed all the Demon Cores they had obtained.

Jiang Fan saw this and quickly stopped them: “Senior Brothers and Sisters, you don’t have to do this.”

Jian Linyuan waved his hand: “We could not assist the Boundary Mountain defenders during the battle, so let us show our gratitude afterward.”

“Otherwise, my heart will not be at peace.”

Jiang Fan was stunned.

Tianji Pavilion disciples were not all unworthy people.

He admired them and cupped his hands in respect toward them.

“On behalf of the Nine Sects disciples, I thank you all.”

They nodded and continued distributing the Demon Cores.

Jin Zhongming, who had reached halfway up the mountain.

Looked at the disciples who had stayed behind, receiving between five to ten Demon Cores each.

His eyes turned red.

These were genuine Merit Points.

Five cores equaled one hundred Merit Points.

Ten cores equaled two hundred!

They had risked their lives to earn only a first-class Merit reward of one thousand points.

These disciples simply waited for Jiang Fan a little longer.

And they received so many Merits?

Why?

“Let’s go! We’re going back too!”

Quickly.

They ran back to the peak.

But Jian Linyuan and the others had finished distributing the Demon Cores.

“No more?” Jin Zhongming said with a sour look on his face.

Jian Linyuan looked at him and said: “Sorry, we have no more left.”

“Why don’t you ask the other junior and senior brothers and sisters if they could share some with you.”

Share with them?

Liang Feiyan, cradling six Demon Cores, sarcastically remarked:

“Didn’t your Giant Sect leave?”

“Now you come back, hoping for Demon Cores?”

Ouyang Jun and Xie Liushu also showed schadenfreude.

The previous nagging from the Giant Sect had annoyed them greatly.

Now they finally felt relieved.

Ouyang Jun tucked his few Demon Cores into his bosom and said:

“Sorry, I’m not sharing.”

Xie Liushu chuckled: “If Junior Brother Ouyang doesn’t share, neither will I.”

“If Senior Brother Xie doesn’t share, neither will I.”

“If Senior Sister Zhou doesn’t share, neither will I!”

…

Disciples from the various sects worked together to target the Giant Sect disciples.

In any case, they wouldn’t share with the Giant Sect disciples.

Jian Linyuan slightly understood.

It seemed the Giant Sect disciples were quite unfavored.

Shaking his head, he cupped his hands toward Jiang Fan and said:

“Junior Brother Jiang, we will see you at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.”

“That’s where you can truly spread your wings, you’re too talented for the Nine Sects.”

Leng Qingzhu’s beautiful eyes also showed expectation:

“When you come to the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, you’ll find this world very interesting.”

“And of course, if you join our team of seven, it will be even more interesting.”

Shang Shiqiu and the other four members cupped their hands and bid farewell.

After this battle, they were thoroughly convinced by Jiang Fan.

They eagerly anticipated Jiang Fan’s arrival at the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

Jiang Fan returned each of their gestures: “Senior Brothers and Sisters, take care!”

Watching the seven leave.

He suddenly felt a bit excited about the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.

He wondered.

What kind of place it was.

And what Leng Qingzhu meant by “this world is very interesting.”

“Jiang Fan, were those Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion disciples?” Li Qingfeng watched them depart, admiration in his eyes.

Compared to those beasts who had harmed the Nine Sects disciples at Boundary Mountain and stole Demon Cores.

These Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion disciples were a completely different kind of people.

This was the true demeanor of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion disciples.

“Yes.” Jiang Fan responded.

Li Qingfeng exclaimed: “Not only are they of exceptional character, but their strength is also frighteningly high.”

“I roughly calculated that the seven of them distributed about eight hundred Demon Cores!”

This number.

Shocked the elders present.

Even Lei Zhenhai showed disbelief: “Eight hundred Demon Beasts, even if they were lying still, it would take a long time to extract all the Demon Cores.”

“I really don’t know how they did it.”

After a moment of silence.

Lei Zhenhai looked at Jiang Fan and said: “Since Jiang Fan has returned, we should retreat quickly!”

“The Demon Beast army should be arriving soon.”

“We cannot delay any longer!”

The elders and disciples all showed a change in expression.

They had almost forgotten.

There was still a sword hanging over their heads.

Li Qingfeng nodded: “Sect Master Lei, you lead the remaining elders and disciples first.”

“I will stay behind to handle the bodies of the fallen Nine Sects members.”

Lei Zhenhai looked sorrowfully at the countless corpses in the corner.

He clenched his fist and said: “They will not die in vain!”

“For every human they kill, we will make the Demon Race pay tenfold one day!”

Elders and disciples from various sects.

Stood before the corpses for a moment of silence, then left with tears in their eyes.

Li Qingfeng then raised a torch, his gaze steady, and said:

“Elders, disciples, forgive me.”

“Li has no choice but to burn your remains and bring back your ashes to bury on human soil!”

With so many bodies, they couldn’t take them all back.

They could only take their ashes.

To be buried together.

Jiang Fan then understood.

They were planning to retreat.

He immediately stopped Li Qingfeng: “It’s not necessary, Elder Li.”

“Let’s take them back, one by one, so they can rest in peace.”

Li Qingfeng sighed: “The Demon Beast army is coming.”

“They will eat our compatriots’ bodies.”

“It’s better to burn them into ashes and take them back.”

But.

Jiang Fan calmly said something shocking.

“There’s no need to retreat.”

“The Demon Beast army is no longer a threat.”
