“I’ve noticed that you’re getting more and more adept at bossing me around these days.”
Upon hearing Su Jingzhen’s words, Bai Suzhen on his arms let out a light laugh.
Ever since he entered the Divine Kingdom, he had indeed been treating her like a contract beast, summoning her at will.
Despite her words, Bai Suzhen did not hesitate at all.
With a flash of white light, she transformed into her massive form and sprawled out in the midst of the black mist.
The next moment, the holy white light emanating from her body illuminated the area, causing the black mist within a one-mile radius to dissipate, revealing the true appearance of the surroundings.
The other demonic cultivators hiding in the fog and watching the spectacle were instantly exposed, with nowhere to hide.
“Huh? What’s going on? Such a powerful aura, such a holy power.”
“Who is that white python? I can’t help but feel a sense of fear in my heart.”
“Not good, not good. I think I should make a quick escape today.”“…”
The core of the Nether Abyss actually covered an area of less than ten miles.
At this moment, more than 90% of the demonic cultivators had been attracted to this place by Su Jingzhen and his group.
Su Jingzhen scanned the area and estimated that there were around two thousand of them.
This number was already beyond his expectations.
In his original plan, one thousand would have been enough.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
As these evil spirits continued to retreat, a series of explosions suddenly resounded in their ears.
The crowd, slightly tense, looked toward the source of the sounds.
They saw that those who had attempted to leave and were already in action were now reduced to clouds of blood mist, disappearing into the void.
The sound of their bodies exploding was like a continuous fireworks display, each explosion striking a chord in the hearts of all the evil spirits present, leaving them deeply shaken.
At the same time, Bai Suzhen’s aura grew stronger, fully displaying the power of her current status as a tenth-level great demon.
Under the pressure of her overwhelming aura, all the evil forces in the Nether Abyss seemed to be squeezed out.
Soon, according to Su Jingzhen’s requirements, nearly a thousand of these evil spirits in the Nether Abyss had been eliminated.
The remaining thousand people were already filled with extreme fear.
They had completely given up any thought of resisting.
None of them who had cultivated to such a high level were fools. They knew that resisting Bai Suzhen at this level would be futile.
If they were obedient and surrendered directly, they might still have a chance to survive.
“Brother Su, no, Lord Su, what did you mean by cooperation earlier? I am all ears.”
“No, no… not cooperation. Whatever Lord Su orders in the Nether Abyss, I will do everything in my power, even if it means sacrificing my life.”
Regardless of where they came from, these evil and twisted individuals, once they had chosen this path, were all extremely capricious.
They would never surrender to something as trivial as dignity. There were no such principles in their lives.
As long as it benefited them, they would do it.
While saying these words and begging for mercy, the remaining thousand people had already knelt down in front of Su Jingzhen.
“Just now, we were blind and disrespectful to you two. If you have any demands, please speak up.
We will do our best to fulfill them, and if we cannot, we will find a way to do so.
All we ask is to be able to follow Lord Su in the future.”
“…”
The supplication words of these people were all extremely sweet.
Not one of them repeated the others.
Obviously, they had done this many times in the past.
A smile appeared at the corner of Su Jingzhen’s mouth.
In his heart, he mused that human nature was often like this, preferring to refuse the easier way and face the consequences.
However, at this moment, he had no intention of playing games.
After all, time was extremely precious in the Divine Kingdom.
He did not want to waste it on meaningless posturing.
“Since entering the Divine Kingdom, I assume that you have all gained something here.
Hand over what you have gained here and lead me to the source of the evil power here.”
If time allowed, he would not mind investigating it himself.
But for Su Jingzhen, the most convenient way was the best way.
As he spoke, the expressions of the kneeling demons changed again.
Many of them showed a glimmer of joy in their eyes.
When nearly a thousand of their companions were directly killed by Bai Suzhen, they had already prepared themselves to meet their end here.
Now, with Su Jingzhen’s words, they felt a glimmer of hope. How could they not seize it?
Without hesitation, the demons kneeling on the ground immediately took off their storage rings and handed them to Su Jingzhen, regardless of whether the treasures inside were obtained in the Divine Kingdom or not.
“Lord Su, this is my humble offering to you.
Most of the items inside were obtained by me in the Nether Abyss.
Lord Su may not be familiar with the Nether Abyss, but it is rich in a type of spirit stone called the Nether Spirit Stone.
The demonic and ghostly qi we need can all be transformed with these Nether Spirit Stones.
They are very compatible with our cultivation methods.
The evil power that permeates the Nether Abyss almost all comes from these Nether Spirit Stones.”
As Su Jingzhen listened to the man’s words, he immediately opened the storage rings they had given him.
Aside from a few miscellaneous items, he actually found a varying number of black spirit stones inside these storage rings.
These spirit stones varied in size, but had extremely smooth surfaces.
The aura they emitted was indeed identical to that of the Nether Abyss, as described by these fellows.
“Please wait a moment, my lord. The people who died earlier did indeed receive a number of Nether Spirit Stones. Moreover, in the Nether Abyss, one can occasionally find ancient evil weapons and magical artifacts. I’ll collect them for you.”
“…”
Seeing that Su Jingzhen seemed to have no intention of killing them, these guys were once again overjoyed and began to act as his lackeys.
They began to collect the scattered storage rings and bracelets for him.
Seeing this, Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but think that these evil cultivators were indeed much more practical than those self-righteous cultivators.
His gaze then turned to Yan Xia beside him. “See? Sometimes, these evil cultivators can still be quite useful.”
“Really, I wonder what you plan to do with those evil spirit stones?
You are only a demon cultivator by identity. Are you really going to practice the cultivation methods of demon cultivators?”
Yan Xia was still a bit curious.
Su Jingzhen did not give a direct answer: “Who knows what the future holds?
Perhaps.”
As they spoke, the group of demon cultivators who had been intimidated earlier had already respectfully collected all the storage rings and handed them over to Su Jingzhen.
“Lord Su, everything is here.
Would you… would you let us go, my lord?”
As they said this, these evil cultivators looked at Su Jingzhen with hopeful eyes, not a trace of their former arrogance remaining.
