Chapter 906 - 153: Breakthrough, Middle-Stage Nascent Soul!

Chapter 906: Chapter 153: Breakthrough, Middle-Stage Nascent Soul!

The group traveled swiftly along the way, their hearts filled with the joy and pride of victory.

The scenery flashed by, yet no one had the mind to appreciate it, as everyone was immersed in the aftermath of the great battle that had just occurred.

Soon, the group all returned to the headquarters,

This deployment lasted a total of four months, taking down seven Tier Four High-Grade Ghost Kings, sixteen Tier Four Middle-Grade Ghost Kings, and also nine Tier Four Low-Grade Ghost Kings,

an exceptionally rare victory!

The group followed True Monarch Yama directly to the Merit Department.

"Greetings, Commander Yu!"

The two elder men responsible for recording the battle merits bowed and said.

They then looked in surprise at Zhou Xun and the others behind him,

"One, two, three..."

A total of ten people, with seven Great Cultivators among them, and the remaining three being True Monarch Tianci, Purple Flood Dragon Demon Emperor, and Zhou Xun,

What a person Zhou Xun is, acquiring nearly two thousand points of battle merits in one go, undoubtedly possessing combat power at the Great Cultivator level,

True Monarch Tianci is the same, being involved in the elimination of High-Grade Ghost Kings, surely also at this level,

As for the Purple Flood Dragon Demon Emperor, his reputation has long been established, certainly possessing Great Cultivator combat power!

Counting this way, it is equivalent to eleven Great Cultivators acting simultaneously. They looked at True Monarch Yama in front and the Golden Flood Dragon Demon Emperor beside him,

seemingly understanding something.

Clearly, True Monarch Yama has made another significant move, and judging by their smiles, the gains must be considerable.

"The battle merits of the Deputy Commander and others are beyond what the two of us can decide. Fortunately, both ’Master Wuxin’ and ’Commander Ji’ are currently in the headquarters; let me invite them over!"

Master Wuxin is undoubtedly the one currently ranking third on the Celestial List, also one of the four Deputy Commanders,

Commander Ji is likewise, representing the Great Jin Dynasty!

According to the headquarters’ rules, for battles reaching a small war scale needing to record battle merits, at least two Deputy Commanders must be present.

After all, for conflicts reaching local war levels, recording battle merits involves more than just what the Ghost Pearls represent,

but also the bonus brought by the victory of the war.

True Monarch Yama’s current battle merits have nearly one third additional bonuses from large-scale wars.

Not long after,

two figures were seen entering from the hall’s entrance,

one wearing a gray long robe, face white without beard, eyes deep as an abyss, appearing to discern the mysteries of the worlds,

his steps light yet steady, exuding an almost intangible aura of peace, this person being Master Wuxin.

The other person was attired in a luxurious golden Dragon Robe, towering posture, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, gaze both sharp and dignified, exactly Commander Ji.

The two entered the hall, scanned everyone, nodding slightly,

Master Wuxin spoke first, smiling: "I heard Brother Yu and Brother Jin have achieved another great victory; I’m delighted!"

Commander Ji also showed a solemn demeanor, a hint of curiosity in his eyes:

"Indeed, just heard that they delivered a message wanting me and Master Wuxin to record the battle merits together; I’ve guessed it’s you, Brother Yu!"

"Including this time, perhaps it touches on ten thousand points of battle merits!"

"The two of you jest, this time was also initiated by Daoist Jin, with numerous daoists contributing; I am merely one among them," True Monarch Yama chuckled and waved his hand, humbly said.

"We’ll chat later, first let us see what you have harvested, how about that?" Master Wuxin smiled and suggested.

According to headquarters regulations, reaching local war standards requires the elimination of at least twenty Ghost Kings, with no less than four High-Grade Ghost Kings!

Otherwise, there will be no bonus for battle merits!

"Fellow daoists, please present the Ghost Pearls you have obtained!" Commander Ji supplemented.

Upon hearing the words, True Monarch Yama waved his hand, and two fist-sized, completely black Ghost Pearls floated out, suspended in his palm,

"Brother Yu’s strength is indeed formidable; as soon as he acted, two High-Grade Ghost Kings fell!" Commander Ji expressed amazement, involuntarily envying.

Defeating Ghost Kings requires strength for sure; besides that, luck also plays a crucial role.

After all, the domain of Ghostly Mist Land is vast, coupled with the suppression it imposes on the cultivators’ six senses; no one can guarantee they will encounter a Tier Four Ghost King, let alone a Tier Four High-Grade.

"Brother Yu must have employed his old tactic, utilizing the Ghost Race’s swift support speed, using a strategy of encirclement to strike their reinforcements!" Master Wuxin spoke slowly,

but few dare approach this method.

After all, a slight mistake could lead to disaster, a situation not without precedents.

"The master’s words are true, but it’s not just me who managed to eliminate two High-Grade Ghost Kings!" True Monarch Yama laughed.

"Could it be Daoist Jin?" Commander Ji quickly asked.

Golden Flood Dragon Demon Emperor heard, awkwardly smiling, waving his hand, revealed his spoils, three Ghost Pearls, two Middle-Grade and one High-Grade.

It wasn’t Golden Flood Dragon Demon Emperor,

Master Wuxin was quite surprised, scrutinized everyone individually,

South Abyss Demon Emperor holding two Middle-Grade Ghost Pearls,

True Monarch Profound Resonance, one High-Grade Ghost Pearl,

True Monarch Tianci, one Middle-Grade Ghost Pearl,

Zhou Xun, two High-Grade Ghost Pearls!

In addition, he had two Middle-Grade Ghost Pearls and one Low-Grade Ghost Pearl!

In terms of Ghost Pearls alone, this person possessed the most, yet judging by the aura emanating from him, he only appeared to be at Peak of Early-Stage Nascent Soul, the lowest among everyone,

Suddenly, he thought of someone and asked urgently:

"Could it be that you are True Monarch Wangchuan, Zhou Xun?"

"Master is too kind; I’ve long heard of your renowned name, and seeing you today truly proves it!" Zhou Xun responded with cupped hands.

"So you are Zhou Xun, I’ve heard rumors that a genius cultivator has emerged from headquarters, rising from obscurity to rank forty-seven on the Celestial List,"
