134: Chapter 134 Suppressing the Demons

On the edge of the Devilish Qi, a massive army of over a million Cultivators was arrayed in formation. Several Nascent Soul Stage generals had stepped forward to engage in a fierce struggle against the monsters.

However, the number of monsters was simply too great, and their overall strength was extremely formidable. As soon as one batch was killed, another would arrive, appearing endless and driving one to despair!

Even though the Great Wu Dynasty had deployed many experts and large armies to resist, the defensive line was being pushed back continuously, and casualties were heavy!

Just then.

An uninvited guest appeared on the border line!

A figure completely shrouded in a black robe appeared surreptitiously, gazing at the distant cavern that was spewing Devilish Qi.

“Disciple, this is the place!”

Yun Qiyao's somewhat excited voice rang in Lin Fan's ear.

“I have already calculated that there is an Opportunity for you within this monster cave, enough to make your strength skyrocket!”

“Moreover, there are treasures inside that can nourish the Soul, which will allow me to recover more of my power!”

Upon hearing this, excitement and high Battle Intent ignited in Lin Fan's eyes!

“I have already reached the Golden Core Stage. If I can obtain the Opportunity here, my strength will surge once again!”

“I am the one destined by heaven!”

“Ji Aotian, you just wait!”

“You could steal my Opportunity once, but do you think you can steal it every single time? This time, I...”

Lin Fan's words came to an abrupt halt.

His eyes widened slightly as he stared fixedly at the figure suddenly descending from the heavens, subconsciously taking a few steps back.

Amidst the howling Devilish Qi filling the sky, a golden light pierced through the firmament and suddenly descended above the monster cave!

Ji Taichang was surrounded by brilliant golden radiance. His figure was tall and straight, and his dark green robes fluttered in the wind. His entire being radiated a sacred and majestic imperial pressure, like a Human Emperor descending upon the world!

As soon as he appeared, the surrounding Devilish Qi melted away like snow; he was impervious to all evil!

“How is it him again?!”

Lin Fan's face contorted, his eyes filled with hatred and fury!

Ji Taichang stood proudly in the sky, his eyes flowing with brilliant light as he looked down at the densely packed monsters below, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

“So many monsters... Jie jie jie, they all belong in my human emperor flag!!”

BOOM—

Ji Taichang pointed a finger, and a Soul Banner emitting black qi and golden light surged out, bursting forth with sky-shaking ferocity!

In an instant.

The human emperor flag seemed to transform into a terrifying black hole. Numerous monsters let out shrill screams as their bodies exploded one after another, like dark green fireworks blooming.

The Souls of the monsters flew backward uncontrollably, being continuously swallowed by the human emperor flag!

“A ten thousand soul banner!?”

Lin Fan's pupils constricted violently; he was both shocked and filled with a surge of wild joy!

“I knew long ago he wasn't a good person! He really is a demonic Cultivator!”

“He actually refined such a notoriously evil Demonic Path Magic Treasure!”

“When I go back, I will announce his identity as a demonic Cultivator to the world, ruining his reputation and making the Great Wu Dynasty's imperial family put him on the wanted list!”

“I'll see how Mother tries to speak for him then!”

Lin Fan's face was full of excitement as he began to fantasize about Ji Taichang's “demonic Cultivator” identity being exposed, him being wanted by the Great Wu Dynasty, and his miserable state as everyone hunted him down.

Yun Qiyao, however, frowned slightly and said, “No, his Soul Banner doesn't have any resentment or Evil Qi; there are no vengeful Souls or ghosts inside.”

Lin Fan snorted coldly, “Perhaps he's just hidden it well. How can someone who refines an evil Magic Treasure like a ten thousand soul banner be a good person?”

While the two were conversing via voice transmission.

The human emperor flag had already devoured the Souls of over a hundred thousand monsters. Although the vast majority were at the Qi Refinement Stage, Foundation Establishment Stage, and Golden Core Stage—seemingly low in cultivation—the sheer quantity was sufficient!

Ji Taichang could clearly sense the aura of the human emperor flag growing stronger!

“ROAR!!”

Just then, a violent roar rang out like a thunderclap, shaking the mountains and valleys!

From within the thick Devilish Qi, a monster shaped like a lizard but with over a dozen long legs and pairs of fleshy wings on its back charged out like lightning. Its body was several hundred feet long, and the pressure it radiated was actually at the Nascent Soul Stage ninth-level Peak!

It wasn't just this one.

From other directions, a total of eight monsters charged out, the lowest cultivation being the seventh-level of the Nascent Soul Stage, their ferocity overwhelming!

Seeing Ji Taichang slaughtering the monsters wholesale, they were all enraged and immediately joined forces to surround and attack him!

“He's dead for sure now!”

Seeing this, Lin Fan was instantly overjoyed.

Yun Qiyao immediately said, “Xiao Fan, empty your mind and do not resist. I will control your body to charge into the monster cave. While Ji Aotian is being besieged by the monsters, we must seize the Opportunity inside the cave!”

“Alright!”

Lin Fan's eyes went hollow for a moment, then became incredibly deep and sharp, and a terrifying aura began to faintly emanate from his body!

Swish!

Yun Qiyao executed a movement technique that was ethereal and eerie, rushing toward the monster cave silently like a ghost.

Just as Yun Qiyao reached the entrance of the monster cave, an earth-shattering boom suddenly erupted behind her!

Yun Qiyao subconsciously looked back, and her pupils constricted violently, her heart jolting in shock!!

She saw the nine monsters with terrifying auras attacking Ji Taichang from different directions, forming a pincer movement.

Ji Taichang's expression was incredibly cold and majestic as he suddenly drew the azure kite sword!

With a casual wave, a thousand-foot-long heaven-shaking sword light erupted, sweeping out in all directions with him at the center!

Those nine monsters had no power to resist at all; their bodies shattered with a boom as they let out shrill screams!

Their remaining Souls were also snatched by Ji Taichang and thrown directly into the human emperor flag!

“How... how can he be so strong!?”

“Could it be that he has already broken through to the Soul Transformation Stage?”

Yun Qiyao was so shocked her head was buzzing.

Among those nine monsters, there were three experts at the ninth-level of the Nascent Soul Stage!

“This person is too terrifying; I must never become his enemy!”

Yun Qiyao's face was grave, her eyes full of wariness.

She took a deep breath and immediately rushed into the monster cave!

At the same time.

Ji Taichang looked toward the monster cave from afar, the corners of his mouth curving into a meaningful arc.

Possessing both the Ziwei Imperial Spirit Body and the Supreme Sword Bone—two top-tier talents—Ji Taichang's perception was terrifyingly sharp!

As soon as Lin Fan had looked at him with hatred and anger, Ji Taichang had already sensed his presence!

“With that guy's strength, it's impossible for him to sneak to the monster cave entrance silently. His ring grandpa must be helping.”

“Very well.”

“Let me see what kind of Opportunity is inside that's worth them taking such a risk!”

A cold smile played on Ji Taichang's face.

He pointed a finger.

The human emperor flag suddenly radiated thousands of beams of light, emitting endless black qi that blotted out the sun and formed a massive barrier, enveloping the hundreds of thousands of monsters below and continuously devouring their Souls!

Ji Taichang himself flickered and strode toward the entrance of the monster cave!
