Chapter 744: Beginning the Harvest

Countless evil cultivators surged into the shattered barrier.

Inside the shattered barrier was a vast and magnificent complex of ancient palaces.

The original silence was broken; the evil cultivators began to ransack the palaces, going so far as to dig three feet deep.

Many evil cultivators did indeed find good things here, and one even found over a hundred supreme Immortal Source Stones.

However, it was snatched away by other evil cultivators before they could even warm it up.

These discoveries made all the evil cultivators even more excited.

Ye Lin, as a virtuous soul, strolled through this ancient palace complex with ease and familiarity.

Because this ancient palace complex was built by him using the Earth-type Forbidden Spell and the Metal-type Forbidden Spell, and the barrier was also set up by his own hands.

Ye Lin's train of thought was very clear.

Rather than bitterly searching for evil cultivators to kill on the Withered Bone Wasteland, it was better to find a way to gather them all together and wipe them out in one go.

Therefore, he first spent three days building this palace complex and hid all his Immortal Source Stones and some treasures he had on him inside the palaces, disguising it as a treasure vault.

Immediately after, Ye Lin set up a barrier to make this treasure vault look even more authentic.

After finishing the preparations, Ye Lin split into two paths alone to spread the news everywhere.

The effect of this move was also very good; almost all the evil cultivators on the entire Withered Bone Wasteland were attracted here.

The temptation of a Primordial Treasure to these evil cultivators who were only at the Five Tribulations of Dao realm and the Cave Profound Swaying realm was terrifyingly immense.

Now that everything was ready, it was time to start the harvest.

Ye Lin did not rush to deal with the seven Swaying realm evil cultivators like Granny Insect Heart, but instead set his sights on the numerous evil cultivators on the periphery.

Anyone who has played "big fish eats small fish" knows clearly that one must start by eating the small ones first.

An evil cultivator at the early stage of the Five Elements realm, with a look of greed on his face, was searching incessantly inside a palace.

"What are you looking for? Shall Dad help you look?"

Ye Lin leaned over with a smile.

The Five Elements realm evil cultivator's gaze tightened, and murderous intent instantly surfaced in the depths of his eyes.

"You are looking for..."

Before the word "death" could be uttered, Ye Lin swung the Bronze Dragon Vein Tripod, directly blasting the man's head into smithereens.

The inner demon within his body was also very sensible and immediately started working.

Collecting souls where souls needed collecting, refining blood where blood needed refining, and devouring endlessly where endless devouring was required.

After resolving this evil cultivator, Ye Lin walked toward another person.

As long as he didn't run into an evil cultivator above the Primordial Chaos realm, the remaining small fry were just a matter of one tripod strike for Ye Lin.

Ye Lin was like a diligent street cleaner, constantly sweeping away all the evil cultivators who entered this place.

He loved evil cultivators deeply.

And this indiscriminate slaughter by Ye Lin soon aroused the vigilance of other evil cultivators.

After slaughtering over a hundred evil cultivators, Ye Lin was surrounded by four evil cultivators.

These four evil cultivators were all at the Cave Profound realm; one of them had reached the mid-stage of the Cave Profound realm, and the remaining three were all at the early stage of the Cave Profound realm.

"This fellow Daoist, everyone comes here for nothing more than treasures. What is the meaning of you killing people everywhere?"

The leading mid-stage Cave Profound realm evil cultivator spoke coldly, his eyes full of vigilance as he looked at Ye Lin.

"Don't ask, asking means I'm acting on behalf of Heaven to punish evil and promote good!" Ye Lin said with a face full of righteousness.

The four evil cultivators were instantly stunned.

Running to a place where evil cultivators gather like the Withered Bone Wasteland to punish evil and promote good?

How is this any different from putting a bunch of snacks in front of a glutton?

"Stop talking nonsense, kill him!"

The four of them charged directly toward Ye Lin, wanting to behead him.

Ye Lin raised his head directly, and the World-Extinguishing Wild Thunder emerged in his palm.

Three early-stage Cave Profound realm and one mid-stage Cave Profound realm cultivators might have caused him trouble before, but now they were no longer qualified.

Four fiercely abnormal attacks blasted toward Ye Lin.

These four attacks blocked all of Ye Lin's movements, giving him no chance to dodge at all.

Ye Lin was open-minded; since he couldn't dodge, he would take them head-on!

Boom!

Violent thunder swept toward the four Cave Profound realm cultivators.

At the same time, Ye Lin's body was instantly torn apart under the attacks of the four Cave Profound realm evil cultivators.

Even with the Hundred Tribulations Imperial Body, it was impossible to withstand the full-force strike of four Cave Profound realm cultivators.

The violent power of the thunder forced the four Cave Profound realm cultivators to retreat repeatedly, exhausted from dealing with it; one early-stage Cave Profound realm evil cultivator was even accidentally struck by the thunder, instantly spitting out a large mouthful of blood, his aura withering away.

"This kid, he uses forbidden spells as soon as he attacks; he's too decisive. Fortunately, we've already killed him."

The four evil cultivators all had looks of lingering fear on their faces.

But just at this moment, the corpse that should have been dead suddenly stood up straight, holding a sharp sword, and silently pierced through the chest of one of the evil cultivators.

That evil cultivator widened his eyes and looked down at the sword tip protruding from his chest.

"Impossible! You were clearly already dead!"

The remaining three evil cultivators were terrified to the point of madness.

They had seen Ye Lin's injuries clearly just now; those injuries were definitely fatal!

"Haven't you heard of a living person pretending to be dead?"

Ye Lin pulled out the sword, and that evil cultivator died instantly from the poison; his entire person also turned into Ye Lin's nourishment at a very fast speed, being eaten until not even bones remained.

And Ye Lin also successfully broke through his realm, stepping into the mid-stage of the Yin-Yang realm.

This scene scared the remaining three evil cultivators into retreating repeatedly.

"You! You aren't punishing evil and promoting good at all; you are clearly using us as cultivation materials!"

"It's just a convenient task; this is also called making use of waste."

Ye Lin curled his lips into a smile, and the Inner Demon Ten Thousand Soul Banner also appeared in his hand at this moment.

The three evil cultivators had just wanted to flee when they were surrounded by the hundred-thousand-strong Star Army.

"Devil, you are a devil!"

"Ah!!!"

Accompanied by a shrill scream, the remaining three Cave Profound realm evil cultivators disappeared without a trace.

Ye Lin put away the Inner Demon Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

The evil cultivators gathered in this place were not only used by him to improve his realm, but if he encountered those with powerful strength, Ye Lin would also use them to practice the Ten Thousand Tribulations Refining God Art, truly squeezing every bit of value out of the evil cultivators.

The evil cultivators began to die on a large scale.

The number of surviving evil cultivators happened to be inversely proportional to Ye Lin's realm.

The fewer the survivors, the higher Ye Lin's realm became.

Gradually, not a single evil cultivator at the Five Tribulations of Dao realm could be found in this place; they had all been slaughtered clean by Ye Lin, and the remaining ones were all powerful existences at the Cave Profound and Swaying realms.

And Ye Lin's realm also broke through once again, reaching the late stage of the Yin-Yang realm.

Breaking through twice in just a few short hours, this refreshing feeling made Ye Lin somewhat intoxicated.

However, he did not dare to lower his guard; those still alive at this moment were all evil cultivators with extremely formidable strength.

Ye Lin soon set his sights on an evil cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Cave Profound realm.

The opponent's realm was the same as Zhou Yanyan's, but because the methods of evil cultivators were strange, the level of difficulty in dealing with them was likely even higher than Zhou Yanyan.

Therefore, Ye Lin knew very well that he could not mess around head-on; he had to win through wit.

He first pretended to approach the opponent inadvertently, then suddenly shouted in surprise.

"Oh no, it's on fire, it's on fire!"

"Where? Where is it on fire?"

The evil cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Cave Profound realm looked around and asked with a puzzled face.

"I'll set it right now."

"Forbidden Spell: Karma Fire Burns the Heavens!"
