Chapter 69: Middle Soul Transformation Realm Battle Power
...….
A few seconds later, a man akin to an aloof immortal stood atop thousands of corpses belonging to cultivators ranging from the Golden Core Formation Realm to the Soul Transformation Realm.
Every single one of them died with grievances, as the faces they were making were a good indication of that point.
Nevertheless, Azmodeus sat atop them all while watching the plethora of system notifications bombarding his vision.
BLING!
*Ding!* *You have killed thousands of cultivators from the River Serpent Sect in the Golden Core Formation and Nascent Soul Realm!*
*Ding!* *You have killed five Outer Deacons of the River Serpents Sect! Four were in the Early Soul Transformation Realm, while the last one was in the Middle Soul Transformation Realm!*
*Ding!* *You have obtained 12 Trillion Evolution Essence!*
*Ding!* *Would you like to Assimilate or roll for the abilities of all the River Serpent Sect Disciple that you killed?*
There was nothing that he truly wanted from the abilities that were displayed by the cultivators, so he replied, "Assimilate."
BLING!
*Ding!* *You have obtained 7.8 Billion Stat Points in Strength, 7.6 Billion points in Defense, 7.5 Billion points in Defense, and 8.2 points in Qi.*
*Ding!* All Cultivation Talent acquisition rates have been automatically converted and split evenly across all of your other basic attributes. It will stay this way until you ascend past the limits of your world.*
*Ding!* *Your overall combat power has Tremendously Improved!*
*Ding!* *Your overall combat power has increased from the 'Early Stages of the Middle Soul Transformation Realm' to the 'Late Stages of the Middle Soul Transformation Realm'*
Following all the most recent system notifications, Azmodeus gazed down at the small hill of bodies beneath him.
He felt like it would be a waste to leave so many valuable 'commodities' to rot away.
I don't have any form of corpse devouring technique, but I should still be able to use them as materials to concoct some pills or roll some formation scrolls.
Azmodeus had already looted them of all their belongings using telekinesis, and he wasn't one to leave a plate with food still left on it...
Like the responsible person he was, all of the corpses would henceforth be used as materials to make pills!
"This is the right thing to do," he muttered while using all his 'relinquished' storage rings to carry their bodies inside.
After putting away all his cultivation materials, Azmodeus took all the storage rings and threw them inside a storage bag, essentially making a double-layered space pocket.
This was what he did with multiple different low-level storage rings while inside the Evil Cultivators Pill Cauldron.
It was also the reason why he had so many miscellaneous materials sitting around, just waiting to be used and recycled infinitely…
Nevertheless, that was a thing of the past, as he had a storage bag now!
That meant he could keep all his 'borrowed' storage rings inside the storage bag!
The amount of space that was made available to him with this neat little trick that nobody seemed to know about had already surpassed an incalculable amount!
This was all to say that the potential for more loot and benefits had surpassed an insanely high degree...
"Loot is good…"
No matter how many times Azmodeus acquired more loot and had alterations made to his personality, there was one thing that always stayed the same.
It was his inseparable yearning for all the valuables that the world had to offer!
Whether those valuables were material or not didn't matter, for as long as there were benefits to be had, he would be there to swoop them up!
At the very core of his being, Azmodeus was a loot goblin of the highest degree!
He was a loot goblin who wanted anything and everything that had even the slightest chance of improving any aspect of his existence!
Just when he was beginning to long for more loot, a few powerful auras in the Middle and Late Soul Transformation Realm emerged from a few hundred miles away…
It looks like there are more of those Outer Deacons… But why are they so close by? Is there something I'm missing here…?
Azmodeus didn't understand how these River Serpent Disciples always seemed to be right around every corner.
Wait… Could it be…?
A sudden flash of realization came to him, as he might've just discovered something that changed everything…
"This entire area is some sort of outer section of this River Serpent Sect, isn't it…?
Furthermore, if my deductions are correct and based on those Deacons calling the Pill Cauldron the 'Ancestors Artifact', then everything I speculated before was completely wrong…
This isn't a blood feud between an Evil Cultivator and the Righteous Faction, it's the thievery of an Evil Cultivator who was somehow affiliated with this River Serpent Sect.
The Half-Step Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator must've stolen the 'Ancestors Artifact' at one point in time. And after stealing it, he decided to run away to the Fire Nation and never look back.
However, somewhere along the way, this 'Ancestor' found the Evil Cultivator and killed him before taking the artifact back into his possession.
Either that, or these Outer Sect members found the Evil Cultivator and decided to kill him, subsequently acquiring the artifact in hopes of obtaining the favor of the Ancestor.
The latter option is likely the correct one, as it wouldn't make much sense that such an Artifact belonging to an Ancestor would be in the hands of the Outer Sect."
Everything seemed to be coming together for Azmodeus, as he was almost positive that this was what had happened during the time that he was stuck inside the Pill Cauldron.
However, there was a point of notice that was quite jarring for him…
If all of those 'trials' were simply coincidences, then why would the rank of the Pill Cauldron be so low when compared to the rank of the Formation Rune Array and the metal used to make up the outer layer of the cauldron…?
