Beyond that, there are no signs of any living activity.
He reached the mountain top unimpeded.
A vast expanse of crumbling walls and desolate ruins met his eyes.
Other than the dried bloodstains everywhere, no bodies were visible on the mountain top.
The bodies of those Corpse Refining Sect members had been dealt with by Song Changming in recent days, piled together and set ablaze. This prevented a stench from lingering for such a long time that it would spoil his appetite.
"Young Master!"
Su Qingqing was the first to notice Song Changming sitting at the highest point of the ruins.
Song Pingâan and the others immediately walked over.
"Everything is here, quite valuable, take it all back." Seeing everyone had arrived, Song Changming pointed to the empty ground behind him, stacked with treasure chests, and instructed.
"Yes!"
At his command, the group got to work, moving the goods down the mountain to the ox carts.
Song Pingâan was meticulously tallying the priceless items on the side.
"Young Master, is the Corpse Refining Sect truly finished?" At this time, Liang Zhao Long couldnât help but ask.
As the apparent leader of the Changming Association who traversed the Jianghu, he was well aware of how powerful the Outer World Corpse Refining Sect was.
In the past decade, the members of the Outer Realm Evil Cult had invaded Da Lai, indulging in wanton slaughter, causing countless atrocities.
The culprit behind it all was the Corpse Refining Sect.
The existence of dry corpses and corpse puppets once became a nightmare in the hearts of many in Da Lai.
Now, Song Changming had directly eradicated the Corpse Refining Sect from its source. Liang Zhao Long was stunned upon hearing the news, never imagining Song Changming would accomplish such a feat silently.
With the fall of the massive Corpse Refining Sect, the members of the Outer Domain no longer pose a threat to Da Lai, at least until another Corpse Refining Sect arises!
Not only will this matter shock history, but it is also destined to be remembered and praised by future generations!
"Yes, the Corpse Refining Sect from the Outer Domain is finished." Song Changming nodded.
Heâs confident the leader and strongmen of the Corpse Refining Sect were completely wiped out by him, and any individuals who slipped through wonât be able to cause a stir.
In his view, the only chance to reconstruct the Corpse Refining Sect would be if the main sect from the Ancient Abyss Country sent people.
But given the main sectâs attitude towards these branches located in barren lands, itâs unlikely theyâll care in the short term.
Perhaps someday, if someone from the Corpse Refining Sectâs main sect remembers this, they might consider sending people for reconstruction.
"Young Master, this is great news! Without the Corpse Refining Sect, those from the Outer Domain will not dare to act recklessly in Da Lai, no, even approach!" Liang Zhao Long said gleefully.
Song Changming nodded.
His original intention wasnât to consider all that; his primary reason for eliminating the Corpse Refining Sect was because they provoked him first.
"Hmph, this damn sect shouldâve met its end long ago!" Su Qingqing remarked lightly and with satisfaction looking at the ruins.
She had been kidnapped here by the Corpse Refining Sect members, hence naturally felt displeased with them.
Now that the Corpse Refining Sect was destroyed, she felt quite relieved.
Afterward, Liang Zhao Long led some people to continue searching and combing through the ruins of the Corpse Refining Sect, not missing any valuable items.
Leaving no stone unturned, they thoroughly stripped the place clean.
Once word spreads, this place is bound to become lively in a few days.
After emptying the Corpse Refining Sect, Song Changming, instructed a few people before planning to once again venture to the Abyssal Land alone.
"Young Master, please be careful!" Su Qingqing suddenly said.
For some reason, she suddenly worried about Song Changming.
She had unconditional trust in Song Changming in the past and had never worried about what Song Changming planned.
But this time, even before leaving, she felt uneasy.
"Hmm." Song Changming looked at Su Qingqing in slight surprise, then smiled gently, nodded, and turned to vanish into the fog, without a trace.
"Whatâs wrong, Qingqing? Itâs not the first time the Young Master is going to the Abyss." Song Pingâan, sensitive to Su Qingqingâs odd behavior, asked.
"Itâs nothing, just suddenly felt a bit uneasy..." Su Qingqing replied, shaking her head.
She couldnât quite explain it; sometimes it happened in the past.
The most memorable was the day her parents suddenly disappeared, leaving her with a similar uneasy feeling.
It felt somewhat like the panic and helplessness of a cub suddenly unable to find its mother.
"Itâll be alright, the Young Master will return..." Su Qingqing silently reassured herself.
Once Song Changming and Liang Zhao Long and others left, fierce beasts began approaching, drawn by the scent of blood, consuming the remaining bodies and bloodstains on the mountain.
Then, the news of the Corpse Refining Sectâs annihilation spread swiftly from Outer Domain to Da Lai, shocking the masses!
Some did not believe the rumors and went to the mountain gate where the Corpse Refining Sect was located.
"Itâs actually true!"
Seeing the mountain covered with ruined remains, despite the unreality in their hearts, they had to believe the rumors.
The Corpse Refining Sect truly no longer exists!
Elsewhere, Song Changming returned to the familiar place, waiting as always.
When the magnetic field gravity and energy currents were about to reach the lowest point, without hesitation, he placed a flying talisman on himself, activating the talisman paperâs effect with spiritual power.
The next moment, Song Changming sensed the energy emanating from the talisman enveloping his body, followed by a sensation of weightlessness.
Next, he merely needed to harness his spiritual power to manipulate the energy of the talisman paper to take off, adjusting flight direction and speed as desired.
