Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate - Chapter 196

Chapter 196: A New Wave of Followers Chapter 196: A New Wave of Followers A stream of sword Qi, like the Milky Way itself, descended from the heavens, slicing straight through the Inquiring Journey realm demonic beast!

“Roar!!” The beast let out a wild, desperate howl, but it had no strength left to fight back.

In an instant, it collapsed to the ground!

“Silent Annihilation!

That’s the Holy Son’s sword technique!” a Heavenly Origin realm disciple exclaimed.

“The Holy Son has come to save us!” “Is this the true power of our Holy Son?” another wondered aloud.

“With a single sword strike, he took down a Late-stage Inquiring Journey realm demonic beast.” “Unbelievable!

The Holy Son is only twenty years old, and I’ve been cultivating for eight hundred years!” As they spoke, the cultivators from the Purple Heaven Holy Land turned their gazes toward Jiang Chen, their eyes filled with awe and astonishment.

At that moment, the deacon of the Purple Heaven Holy Land, whose life had been saved by Jiang Chen, regained his senses.

Gratitude filled his heart as he bowed respectfully.

“Thank you, Holy Son, for saving my life!” “Unity and support-these are the pillars of our sect,” Jiang Chen replied with a friendly smile.

With a simple wave of his hand, he effortlessly sliced the Inquiring Journey realm demonic beast into pieces before storing them away.

Right after, he activated the Wordless Heavenly Jade, draining the beast’s Qi and blood energy completely!

Seeing Jiang Chen store the body of the demonic beast, the deacon of the Purple Heaven Holy Land grew anxious and quickly warned, “Holy Son!

That demonic beast…

it’s been tainted by Demonic Spiritual Qi…” A tainted demonic beast, along with any materials harvested from it, would quickly deteriorate, losing its original value.

Worse still, the hidden Demonic Spiritual Qi within made it completely unusable.

However, before the deacon could finish his sentence, Jiang Chen interrupted him.

“Don’t worry, the corrosion of Demonic Spiritual Qi poses no threat to me,” he assured, offering the deacon a grateful smile.

“Moreover,” Jiang Chen continued, his voice now booming across the battlefield, “if anyone becomes tainted, I can heal them.

So, fight without hesitation-there’s no need to hold back!” He then shifted his attention to the battlefield strewn with demonic beast remains.

“These corpses are a danger if left scattered.

I have a way to make use of them, so gather the remains and bring them to me later!” Jiang Chen now openly requested the corpses of the fallen demonic beasts.

Though his actions might seem strange to some, Jiang Chen didn’t care.

The only people whose opinions mattered to him were influential figures like Ji Mingxiu and the Four Supreme Elders.

These higher-ups in the Purple Heaven Holy Land were already aware that he was under the guidance of two powerful Void Tribulation realm experts.

To them, his use of the demonic beast corpses was perfectly natural and wouldn’t raise any suspicion.

With that in mind, Jiang Chen wasted no time.

He swiftly began collecting the demonic beast corpses, covertly siphoning their Qi and blood energy without hesitation!

Meanwhile, the crowd buzzed with astonishment, still trying to process the revelation that Jiang Chen possessed a method to remove the corruption of the Demonic Spiritual Qi.

“What?!

The Holy Son has such a technique?” one disciple exclaimed in shock.

“That’s amazing!

There’s hope for my second junior brother-he was just tainted by Demonic Spiritual Qi!” another shouted excitedly.

“Is that why the Holy Son can even make use of these demonic beast corpses?” someone else speculated.

Even the three Dao Comprehension realm Elders, locked in battle with their respective demonic beasts, couldn’t help but glance at Jiang Chen in surprise.

If not for the need to stay focused on their opponents, they would have surely given him more of their attention.

Just then, having stored the last of the demonic beast corpses, Jiang Chen swept his gaze across the battlefield and rallied, “Fellow sect members!

These demonic beasts dare to attack our Purple Heaven Holy Land-like ants trying to shake a tree.

Stand with me, and let’s wipe them out!” With those words, he gripped the Peerless Sky Piercing Sword and charged straight at one of the Inquiring Journey realm demonic beasts.

The crowd of cultivators, now free from the fear of being corrupted by Demonic Spiritual Qi, felt their blood surge with excitement.

Their feverish cries echoed across the battlefield: “Attack, attack, attack!” With renewed strength, they unleashed even greater combat power.

One by one, the demonic beasts let out sorrowful screams as they fell, defeated!

With thunderous crashes, the massive bodies of the demonic beasts, as large as small hills, tumbled to the ground.

Their blood spilled out in cascades, pooling into vast lakes!

The cultivators of the Purple Heaven Holy Land quickly disassembled the corpses and stored them in their artifacts, ready to hand them over to Jiang Chen.

Thanks to Jiang Chen’s spirited encouragement, the once deadlocked battlefield began to slowly shift in favor of the Purple Heaven Holy Land’s cultivators.

The group of cultivators trailing behind Jiang Chen finally reached the frontlines.

Without hesitation, they plunged into the battle, one after another, further tipping the scales of victory in their favor.

Jiang Chen, wielding the Peerless Sky Piercing Sword, relentlessly cut down demonic beasts, while using the Wordless Heavenly Jade to absorb their qi and blood energy.

As for the qi and blood energy scattered in the air, Jiang Chen paid it no mind.

Though the risk of being discovered while absorbing it was minimal, the amount was too insignificant to bother with.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Chen had vanquished ten Inquiring Journey realm demonic beasts.

The remaining beasts were swiftly eradicated by the cultivators of the Purple Heaven Holy Land, who, now free to act, brought them down one by one.

At this point, all the Inquiring Journey realm demonic beasts across the battlefield had been wiped out!

The Wordless Heavenly Jade had absorbed the qi and blood energy from ten Inquiring Journey realm demonic beasts, transmuting it into a unique energy.

Jiang Chen, however, didn’t immediately focus on cultivation.

Instead, he pressed on, continuing his relentless slaughter of the Heavenly Origin realm demonic beasts!

If it took only a few moves for Jiang Chen to eliminate Inquiring Journey realm demonic beasts, then dispatching Heavenly Origin realm beasts was as effortless as crushing ants.

With a single sweep of his sword, the unleashed sword Qi formed a sharp thread, instantly piercing through dozens of Heavenly Origin realm demonic beasts!

The remaining Inquiring Journey realm cultivators quickly joined the fray, their rapid maneuvers cutting through the enemy with precision.

Soon, only three demonic beasts at the Dao Comprehension realm were left standing on the battlefield.

The gap between the Inquiring Journey realm and the Dao Comprehension realm was enormous, so no one dared to recklessly join the battle.

At that moment, Jiang Chen’s clear, commanding voice rang out across the battlefield, his words bringing a sense of relief.

“Everyone, gather around!

I plan to extract the Demonic Spiritual Qi from those of you who have been corrupted.

As for the rest, I’ll examine you as well, just to be sure!” “Holy Son, please save my second brother!” An Inquiring Journey realm cultivator stepped forward, anxiously holding a restrained disciple, his face filled with worry.

“Holy Son, I’ve been tainted!

Ah, I can barely hold on anymore!” another disciple cried out.

Several others, long corrupted by the Demonic Spiritual Qi, were on the verge of losing their sense of self, their minds hanging by a thread.

Wasting no time, Jiang Chen nodded and quickly approached.

He took out various natural treasures and, using the Demonic Qi Extraction Art, began purging the tainted disciples.

His speed was astonishing!

In less than ten breaths, he could cleanse a cultivator’s body of the Demonic Spiritual Qi.

When the Demonic Spiritual Qi was extracted from the first cultivator, everyone was left speechless, stunned by what they had witnessed.

Even the three Dao Comprehension realm Elders, locked in combat with the demonic beasts, couldn’t help but steal several more glances at Jiang Chen, their eyes filled with shock and delight.

In the blink of an eye, all the disciples tainted by Demonic Spiritual Qi had been rescued by Jiang Chen.

Immediately, cultivators lined up before Jiang Chen, one after another, their eyes filled with grateful tears.

Each of them was ready to serve tirelessly, eager to become devoted attendants and helpers.

Next came the examination of the remaining individuals who appeared unaffected.

Upon closer inspection, a handful of cultivators were found to have traces of Demonic Spiritual Qi in their bodies, though they had yet to show any symptoms.

These cultivators were filled with fear in hindsight.

Without Jiang Chen, they might have remained unaware of their infection until it was far too late!

As a result, yet another group of people overflowed with gratitude toward him.

In a short span of time, Jiang Chen had gained a considerable number of loyal followers from the Purple Heaven Holy Land.

Alongside this, he had also acquired numerous storage artifacts filled with demonic beast corpses.

These storage artifacts held at least hundreds of Heavenly Origin realm demonic beasts, as well as seven or eight Inquiring Journey realm beasts.
