Looking at the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in his hand, General Chen swallowed hard; its effects were simply miraculous.

But the thought of the immense carnage and karma still made General Chen tremble.

I'm afraid I can't withstand such terrifying karma!

Even the strongest luck cannot be washed away by karma. Unsure of what to do, General Chen decided to seek guidance from the Celestial Master.

After contacting the Celestial Master and confirming the location, General Chen quickly flew over.

When he finally found the old master, the old master was also lost in confusion.

General Chen was stunned when he saw the demonic sword in the old master's hand.

The demonic energy of this sword was even more terrifying; within a radius of a hundred miles, not a blade of grass grew, all of it was corroded by the demonic energy.

"Old Celestial Master, what's going on with you?" General Chen couldn't help but ask.

The old master also said with a wry smile, "I don't know why, but I unearthed this demonic sword."

"According to the description of the treasure box, this demonic sword is a magic weapon of a powerful figure in the cultivation world. With one strike, no life can be found within a hundred miles."

General Chen's lips twitched, and he took out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. In an instant, the surrounding atmosphere became even colder, and a murderous aura permeated the area.

The old master was both amused and exasperated. He had originally intended to enlighten General Chen, but now he himself had a demonic sword in his hand.

Just as the two were stunned, Wudang Qingzhenzi rode over on a fire qilin.

He was stunned to see the two wielding a demonic sword in one hand and a banner of ten thousand souls in the other. He thought he had stumbled upon a forbidden area of ​​the demonic sect.

But then she pulled out a blood-red lotus flower, leaving the three of them dumbfounded once again.

So, it turns out that all of them have found demonic treasures.

The old Celestial Master asked curiously, "Fellow Daoist Qingzhenzi, what is that?"

Qingzhenzi said speechlessly, "The Heavenly Nether Blood Lotus can refine the essence of all things in the world and purify it. Then, you can use this refined essence to improve your cultivation."

"But those demonic treasures in your hands are not simple either; each one looks menacing."

General Chen took out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and said, "This is the Ten Thousand Souls Banner. You should have heard of it!"

"If you don't work hard in your cultivation in this life, you'll be brothers in the Ten Thousand Souls Banner in the next."

The old celestial master held up the demonic sword and said, "The demonic sword of the demonic master uses the lives of all living beings for blood sacrifice."

"With a single sword strike, no life can be found within a hundred miles!"

The three demonic treasures unleashed their power in the air, obliterating all life within a hundred miles of them.

A terrifying aura permeated the surroundings, turning this area into a forbidden zone for the demonic cult.

Ye Yun, who was outside, asked curiously, "System, tell me, what exactly is going on?"

[Host, I get really angry just thinking about this.]

[I originally just wanted to borrow something from another world, but unexpectedly, a powerful demonic cultivator discovered a trace of me and tried to deduce my existence.]

[And he even tried to use the Dao of Cause and Effect to lock onto me. Of course, I couldn't tolerate such provocation, so I decided to go all the way and empty his treasure trove.]

Then I put all these magical treasures into these treasure boxes as rewards.

Ye Yun: ...

Wouldn't this be considered an heinous crime if the enemy discovered me stealing, not only ignoring that they didn't see it, but also trying to stop me?

How did the system have the courage to say that so bluntly? It doesn't care about saving face at all.

He then stroked his chin and said, "System, you've handled this matter unreliably."

"Look at their system, it has already extracted the marrow from Pangu, bleeding him out where necessary and dismantling his bones where necessary."

"All you do is steal small things; these petty tricks are beneath you."

"That powerful demonic cultivator was at least a top expert, right? Although he couldn't compare to the Great God Pangu, his blood and essence could still be used."

"Let's not push things too far. Taking seventy percent of his life essence isn't too much to ask, is it?"

Hearing Ye Yun's words, the system understood. So that's how it can be done!

Compared to this, I do seem a bit petty.

When I return to that world again, I will have to do it this way.

Within the evolutionary world

The three of them looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

Putting everything else aside, these demonic treasures are truly amazing treasures with incredible power. It would be such a waste to give them up like this.

Seeing that neither of them intended to speak, General Chen had no choice but to take the lead and say, "Actually, in my personal opinion, regardless of whether these magical treasures are demonic or celestial treasures..."

"I think the definition of them lies in people. Weapons are neither good nor evil, but people are."

"Just like in our usual theory, if someone kills someone with a kitchen knife, can we conclude that the kitchen knife is an evil weapon?"

"That can't be determined. A kitchen knife is just a tool for cutting vegetables. The real murderer is the person who held the kitchen knife."

"And the same magical weapon is ultimately just a weapon. Regardless of its abilities, whether it can cause bloodshed depends on the person who uses it."

"My opinion is that it can be used. There's no need to feel guilty, as long as your heart is pure."

"Believe it or not, if these treasures fall into the hands of Trump or Deng Xiaoping, they will absolutely not consider these issues."

"They only care about how powerful this treasure is and whether it can enhance their strength."

The old master nodded and said, "Indeed, we were overthinking it. The weapons are in our hands, and we can decide how to use them."

"There's a saying online that goes, 'As long as I have no morals, morals can't hold me hostage.'"

"Similarly, as long as I don't have any psychological burden, psychological burden can't hold me back."

Qingzhenzi also turned around and said, "That's true, but we should still practice a Mind-Clearing Technique to keep our minds clear at all times."

"Once our mental state is compromised, we will be influenced by these demonic artifacts, and once that happens, it will be a big problem."

Having said that, Qingzhenzi took the lead in refining the Heavenly Nether Blood Lotus while chanting:

A pure heart remains unperturbed even when the sky falls.

Amidst constant change, one remains serene and at peace.

Untainted by dust and dirt, unstained by worldly appearances

The void is tranquil and empty, devoid of anything.

Nothingness arises from nothingness; difficulty and ease complement each other.

Forgetting things and possessions, one becomes one with the primordial chaos.

Heaven and earth are boundless, and all things are one.

Falling petals and leaves, a humble and open mind

...

By guarding the mental platform in his mind, he ensured that he would not be affected by this demonic artifact.

Without pausing, the Heavenly Blood Lotus was being slowly refined.

The old Celestial Master and General Chen stood guard on the side, as it was their first time refining such a demonic magic weapon, and it was best to be cautious.

With Qingzhenzi's successful refinement, the two also began to refine their own in succession.
