Chapter 382: Increased Strength
Two streaks of light flashed by, they were the Black Mountain Seal and the Frost Blade, which directly slashed towards the two demon ancestors.

The calamity flag in Zhang Chu's hand also turned slightly, and the strands of calamity energy directly wrapped around the two demon ancestors.

Under the influence of the calamity energy, the two demon ancestors were directly hit by the Black Mountain Seal, and the Frost Blade also cut them.

The corpse that was fighting with him also seized the opportunity.

"Tear~"

One of the demon ancestor's arms was torn apart, and the blood spilled directly into the Corpse King's formation and was swallowed by the Corpse King's banner.

The seriously injured ancestor of the demon clan seemed to have lost his mind and actually chose to confront the corpse head-on.

No matter how strong the demon's body is, it is still made of flesh and blood!

How can it compare with zombies?

In addition, with the power of the Pluto Formation to absorb the soul, the demon ancestor, who was already seriously injured, was killed by Zhang Chu in the formation in a short time.

Right now, the only one left is an old demon ancestor who has survived the eightfold thunder tribulation.

With a corpse refiner of the same level, plus an evil spirit of the same level, and Zhang Chu assisting with a treasure in hand, the remaining demon ancestor will not be able to hold on for long.

At this time, the creatures rushing from two directions have already appeared around the Corpse King's formation.

The leaders of both sides were the ancestors of the human race who had just crossed the Tribulation Period and the ancestors of the demon race who had just crossed the Tribulation Period.

They all looked at each other in confusion. Along the way, they had already seen dozens of empty cities of the demon clan.

All the demons in those cities disappeared. Now, looking at the formation in front of them that contained boundless ferocity, the ancestors of both sides who were in the Tribulation Crossing stage had extremely solemn expressions on their faces.

With their spiritual consciousness, they were completely unable to see through the formation in front of them. They could only feel the endless corpse qi and yin energy in the formation.

However, neither the ancestors of the human race nor the ancestors of the demon race had any intention of taking action.

They didn't know what was going on with the formation in front of them, nor did they know whether they were friends or enemies. If they acted rashly, they would definitely be attacked by the master of the formation.

What's more, even if the demon race is exterminated, what does it have to do with other races (the monster race)?
What they are concerned about now is whether the person who set up the formation is a human or a demon.

Zhang Chu also felt the arrival of the high-level leaders of the human and demon tribes, but he had no intention of showing up.

Instead, they intensified their attack. With two refined corpses and an evil spirit of the same level of combat power, plus Zhang Chu, the ancestor of the demon clan could no longer hold on.

Coupled with the influence of the calamity energy and the demise of the other demon ancestors who were in the calamity period, the impact on it was really too great.

He was not careful and was hit by Zhang Chu's frost blade.

How great is the suppression of those monks by the power of humanity?

Especially, we are facing the demons now?
The moment he was cut by the frost blade, blood spilled directly into the corpse king's formation.

At this time, the Black Mountain Seal also smashed heavily on the body of the demon ancestor.

"Boom~"

The demon ancestor was knocked from the air to the ground.

A feeling of dizziness appeared in the consciousness of the demon ancestor.

The Pluto formation immediately took effect, and an extremely powerful absorption force appeared directly within the formation.

Before the dizziness dissipated, an extremely terrifying absorbing force directly enveloped the demon ancestor.

Almost in an instant, the slightly dazed soul of the demon ancestor was directly taken out and appeared above the demon ancestor's head.

Before the soul could react, dozens of seals fell directly on it, and the soul was also pulled into the Crossing World Mirror.

Once you reach the Yueshi Mirror, even the soul of an immortal will not be able to escape.

A gray light flashed, and the body of the demon ancestor on the ground was directly taken into the Corpse King Banner.

Feeling the depletion of his own magic power, Zhang Chu still had no intention of showing up. He directly took out the spirit stones obtained from those demon cities and began to recover.

Piles of spirit stones turned into powder in an instant.

It’s not that the spirit stones are not durable, but Zhang Chu’s cultivation is too strong. The previous top-grade spirit stones are no longer useful in Zhang Chu’s hands except for restoring mana.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of spirit stones were drained of their spiritual energy by Zhang Chu and turned into powder.

Zhang Chu refined streams of spiritual energy in an instant, and his magic power was also restored by more than half. As for recovering to its peak, that was not something that could be achieved with hundreds of thousands of low-grade spirit stones.

"What are you doing?"

Zhang Chu, who had recovered most of his magic power, finally focused his attention outside the formation. Looking at those cultivators in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, his voice came out from the Corpse King Formation, "Are they planning to harm me?"

This time, Zhang Chu did not call himself a poor monk. Wouldn't that expose his identity directly?
"Fellow Taoist, you are serious!"

"We heard about the unusual movements of the demons, so we came to check the situation!"

Looking at the great formation where one could only hear the sound but not see the people, the ancestors of the human and demon races who were in the Tribulation Crossing Stage did not dare to be careless.

Think about it, the demons have been beaten so badly, but no high-level demons have appeared.

There is only one possibility, that is, all the high-level demons have been wiped out.

As for the fact that the high-level demons don’t know about this?

how can that be possible?
Both the human race and the demon race knew about this, so how could the high-ranking members of the demon race not know about it?

Thinking of the high-ranking demons who had been annihilated, the tribulation-crossing cultivators among the human and monster races could not help but tremble in their hearts.

The demons are no weaker than any of their two tribes, and they just disappeared silently. How could they not be on guard?

Especially, at the moment we still don’t know whether the creatures that set up the formation are human, demon, or some other alien race.

"It better be so!"

Zhang Chu snorted coldly, "Now that we've seen it, should we leave now?"

"Do you want me to keep you as my guests?"

Anger flashed across the faces of the Tribulation Crossing cultivators from both the human and demon races, but they had no intention of taking action.

The powerful existence in front of them was really unknown whether it was an enemy or a friend, so how could they possibly take action?
If the person who set up the formation cannot be retained, it will cause huge trouble for his own race.

Seeing that the person who set up the formation had no intention of coming out to meet them, the human and demon cultivators present looked at each other and retreated directly.

Obviously, they were already planning to form an alliance to deal with the person who set up the formation in front of them.

Not long after, the human, demon and cultivators who were rushing in from two directions disappeared directly around the formation.

While Zhang Chu's extremely powerful semi-immortal consciousness was unable to detect their presence, he knew that they had already gone far away.

Zhang Chu collected the Corpse King Banner and the Soul Banner, and his figure flashed repeatedly.

After a while, it disappeared from here.

He rushed towards the demon clan. Both the Corpse King Banner and the Soul Banner needed enough living beings for blood sacrifice to make the two banners more powerful.

Now that the high-level demons have been almost wiped out by him, it is time to thoroughly clean up the area where the demons are located.

Whether it is the resources used for cultivation or the materials needed for refining equipment, there are plenty of them in the demon area.

From the dozens of cities that were emptied by Zhang Chu, he obtained a lot of materials for refining soul flags.

According to a rough estimate, it is already possible to refine hundreds of Hundred Thousand Soul Banners.

There are hundreds of Hundred Thousand Soul Banners, and the number of souls needed to fill them would be counted in tens of millions.

The primordial spirits of the demon creatures are considered the best ghosts among the soul banners.

Without the strong demons, Zhang Chu's actions became more and more arrogant.

He directly took the Corpse King Banner and the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and began to clear out the demons in the demon area in a carpet-style manner.

The demons below the Tribulation Crossing Stage, facing the Corpse King Banner and the Soul Banner, had no power to fight back at all, and could not even escape.

Zhang Chu's actions were also seen by the cultivators of the human and demon races, and they all became nervous.

Because they discovered that Zhang Chu was neither a demon nor a human, but a corpse demon.

Zhang Chu, whose whole body was filled with corpse energy, had long been classified as an alien by them.

Faced with an extremely powerful alien species that was willing to exterminate their own race, the high-ranking officials of the human and demon races were extremely nervous.

Countless armies had been dispatched long ago to completely block the border between the human race and the demon race, and between the monster race and the demon race.

Zhang Chu also saw these situations, but he didn't care.

Now, his main target is not the human race or the demon race, but the demon race.

The human race and the demon race blocked the border, which was also a help to Zhang Chu. At least he didn't have to worry about the demons escaping.

It took Zhang Chu more than a month to thoroughly clean up the entire demon area.

The blank soul flags in his hands are already filled with ghosts. Even the strength of the refined corpses in the Corpse King's flag has been greatly improved.

Many of the corpses that have just entered the Silver Armor Corpse Refining Stage have already raised their strength to the peak level of the Silver Armor Corpse Stage.

And what about those golden armored corpses?
Their strength has also improved a step further, and they have all reached the combat power of the Tribulation Crossing Stage.

Fifty-five golden-armored corpses with the combat power of the Tribulation Crossing Stage.

As far as the spiritual world is concerned, one can already roam freely.

It looks like a big improvement, but actually, it’s not that big.

There are more than billions of demons in the spiritual world?
Absorbed by tens of thousands of refined corpses in the Corpse King Banner, each refined corpse has devoured at least millions of demon bodies. If their strength does not increase, wouldn’t Zhang Chu’s work be in vain?

However, no matter how much it is, after reaching the Spiritualization Stage or even the Tribulation Stage, it is no longer of much use.'
Therefore, the improvement in strength is so small.

To upgrade the Corpse King Banner and the Soul Banner, it seems that quality is still needed!

After more than a month, the demon area had become desolate. Zhang Chu had no intention of staying there any longer. Instead, he communicated with the Yueshi Mirror and returned to the biochemical world.

With so many resources, he must turn them into strength!

When the resources are transformed into strength, it is time to go to the spirit world and completely destroy the demon race.

By that time, the twelve million soul banners will definitely be forged.

Even those silver-armored corpses in the Corpse King Banner can be promoted to the gold-armored corpse level.

How terrifying is the corpse king formation with tens of thousands of golden-armored corpses?
Even if a true immortal came, we could still fight him.

After returning to the biochemical world, Zhang Chu first marked the bodies of the demons he had obtained with runes, placed them in the refining formation, and waited for them to transform into zombies.

Then there are the Hundred Thousand Soul Banners.

In the spiritual world, Zhang Chu has gathered more than thirty Hundred Thousand Soul Banners, and they will become treasures once they pass the calamity of becoming a treasure.

However, Zhang Chu was not in a hurry at the moment.

The matter of the Soul Banner's tribulation could be discussed later. Right now, he needed to transform the resources he had plundered from the spirit world.

Zhang Chu needs to refine all the materials suitable for refining soul flags into soul flags, and the other materials will be placed in the base.

In the demon city, especially in the storage bags of those ancestors in the Tribulation Period, Zhang Chu also obtained a lot of good things.

What he values ​​most is the fairy stone, which is filled with fairy energy.

Although most of them are fragments, for Zhang Chu, the higher level of immortal power inside is still very important for him to improve his strength.

Even though they are just fragments, if placed in the world of Shrouding the Sky, they are no less than the elixir of immortality.

The world of Shrouding the Sky lacks the material for longevity, but the spiritual world does have it.

What’s more, it is the fairy jade brought from the fairyland?
The fairy air inside definitely contains a lot of life-promoting substances.

Now that he had the resources, Zhang Chu had no intention of keeping them. He directly put all the resources that could be transformed into energy and enhance his strength into the Yue Shi Mirror.

The Yue Shi Mirror twisted slightly, and all of it turned into energy.

He began to practice the longevity martial arts that integrated the Emperor's Scriptures.

His energy and blood began to increase further.

In the blink of an eye, several months had passed. The energy transformed from those resources had been completely absorbed by Zhang Chu, and his martial arts of immortality had also reached its peak.

No matter how much energy he has, as long as his realm is not improved, it will be impossible to increase the power of Qi and blood.

At this point, it was time for the dozens of Hundred Thousand Soul Banners in Ran's hand to overcome the calamity of becoming treasures.

It took nearly a year to prepare more than thirty Hundred Thousand Soul Banners for treasure creation, and Zhang Chu's body was also tempered more than thirty times during the process.

Right now, if Zhang Chu wants to survive the first thunder tribulation, he is absolutely confident that he can do it.

However, a hundred years is not so easy to achieve.

Calculating the time, almost a year has passed, and it is time for Zhang Chu to go to the corpse refining formation.

It seems that the bodies of those demons have now transformed into zombies.

When he arrived there, he found thousands of silver-armored corpses, but not a single bronze-armored corpse.

He directly put it into the Corpse King Banner. After enslaving it, Zhang Chu turned his attention to the cocoons formed by the more than thirty corpse qi in the Corpse King Banner.

Wrapped inside are the bodies of demons in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Zhang Chu has high hopes for these bodies, as they are all the seedlings of the Golden Armored Corpse.

After more than a month, more than thirty cocoons transformed from corpse qi cracked open, and the zombies inside also broke out!
