Two Worlds: Demonic Cultivator with His Zombie Materials-Chapter 102 - 92: Spirit Marrow, True Inheritor_2

Qi Lin continued, "Now everyone knows that the greatest asset of the Soul Catching Sect isn’t the three Foundation Establishment Cultivators, including the Sect Leader, but rather the Ghost King left by the Withered Soul Ancestor two hundred years ago."

Originally, ever since the Soul Catching Sect was occupied by the Hundred Beasts Sect, the Hundred Beasts Sect began a massive slaughter of Sect Disciples, plundering the wealth of the Soul Catching Sect, unexpectedly disturbing a Magical Artifact suppressed beneath the main peak’s canyon abyss.

This Magical Artifact was a measure left by the Withered Soul Ancestor, a Purple Mansion Stage Cultivator and the revival leader of the Soul Catching Sect two hundred years ago, as the sect’s last asset.

This matter was extremely confidential, known only to the Sect Leader and a few Elders within the sect.

But they were unfortunate. The Thunderfire Ascendant from the Barbaric Beast Sect personally dealt with them, annihilating them in one fell swoop. Plus, the few Elders guarding the sect suddenly died in battle, leaving no chance to pass the news. So no one knew about this matter.

The Hundred Beasts Sect was equally unfortunate, directly stirring the restrictions and unleashing the terrifying Ghost King from the artifact left by the Withered Soul Ancestor.

It’s said that that day, the entire mountain range of the Soul Catching Sect was filled with sinister Ghost Qi, the rolling black mist enveloped the entire sky, and the fearful Ghost Qi scared the Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Hundred Beasts Sect into fleeing.

If he had known that such a dreadful Ghost was hidden in the Soul Catching Sect, he would absolutely not have dared to set foot here.

He originally thought that with the three Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Soul Catching Sect gone, the sect gate empty, he could reign supreme.

He never anticipated that such a terrifying and ferocious Ghost King existed beneath the Soul Catching Sect.

Within less than a quarter-hour, the Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Hundred Beasts Sect directly perished, leaving the remaining sect forces all dead on the mountains of the Soul Catching Sect.

Only a small part of the Hundred Beasts Sect members escaped the Soul Catching Sect, and soon enough, the Ghost King nourished by the artifact strangely vanished without a trace for unknown reasons.

Perhaps it returned to the great abyss, or perhaps it simply dissipated, but no one dared to investigate.

Thus, the struggle between the two sects finally ended.

It can be said to be tumultuous, with both sides suffering, leaving no winner.

The only one to profit suddenly was the Barbaric Beast Sect.

Thunderfire Ascendant has now sent sect members to mine the vein, establishing a mine site.

However, the Star-devouring Demon City, backer of the Soul Catching Sect, has voiced concerns, stating that the Barbaric Beast Sect’s sudden targeting of its subordinate sect broke the Demon Dao Alliance, and this matter isn’t over.

It seems that regarding the Spirit Marrow Vein issue, the Barbaric Beast Sect and Star-devouring Demon City won’t settle easily? There’s bound to be some tug-of-war.

"I have to say, this was completely a war without winners."

"Both sides fought for nothing!"

Whether it’s the Hundred Beasts Sect or the Soul Catching Sect, both sides were victims.

A war over the Spirit Stone Veins ultimately turned into a complete fall of both sides’ high-level figures, all trump cards exposed, and even the sect gate of the Soul Catching Sect was breached, leaving nothing gained in the end.

It’s fundamentally a mutual destruction, and this result was probably unforeseen at the start of the war.

But Zheng Yi thought about another aspect.

Perhaps, whether it’s the Soul Catching Sect or the Hundred Beasts Sect, they were both powerless; these Foundation Establishment sects were merely pawns in others’ hands.

The real beneficiaries were the players behind the scenes, the Purple Mansion Stage forces, the Star-devouring Demon City, and the Barbaric Beast Sect. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Don’t be fooled by these two sides now engaging in intense verbal battles, feigning righteousness for their subordinate sect, but in reality, it’s just a matter of interest distribution.

A typical Middle-Grade Spirit Stone vein, while not sufficient for the two Purple Mansion Stage forces to lose face, if it were an exceedingly rare Spirit Marrow Vein, potentially producing Upper Grade Spirit Stones, it would be entirely different.

Once both sides agree on interest distribution, reconciliation isn’t impossible; they might just put on a show in other respects.

As for the heavily damaged Soul Catching Sect and Hundred Beasts Sect, they’ve long been swept into history’s trash bin, no one truly cares.

After all, in the Great Yi City Immortal Realm, countless small forces are born every day, many disappear daily, everything driven by interest, let alone the more fiercely competitive Demon Realm.

Ultimately, it’s power that reigns supreme.

This also gave Zheng Yi a deeper understanding of the competition within the Demon Realm.

Yet, it must be said, the Soul Catching Sect’s foundation is still very strong. Even Zheng Yi didn’t expect that beneath the great abyss of the Soul Catching Sect lay the trump card left by the Withered Soul Ancestor two hundred years ago; no wonder his life-bound Soul-Catching Banner warned him when he entered the sect gate.

"From your words, the matter isn’t over yet, what’s happening at the sect now?!"

Having recounted the entire event in its entirety, Qi Lin was still standing there, yet to leave, so Zheng Yi asked.

"The subsequent events aren’t too important, it’s just that now within the sect, it’s a riot of demons, like monkeys declaring themselves kings without a tiger on the mountain, there are many filial sons and virtuous grandsons fighting internally in this mess, not believing themselves to be the rightful heir."

These words reached Zheng Yi’s ears, but they didn’t surprise him much.

That’s just normal operation, isn’t it?

After all, if one does not watch out for oneself, heaven and earth will kill them, not to mention Demon Cultivators?

Although the Soul Catching Sect has collapsed, the foundation of the sect is still somewhat intact, a few scattered important figures, a few remaining Elders and True Disciples who never ranked highly within the sect but now, with the major players swept away, are eager to be masters.
