Cultivation of immortality by toad starts with cultivating demons

Chapter 1775 Soul Banner Advancement, Billions of Soul-Devouring Banners

In order to avoid attracting attention, after unleashing the Black River to devour all the ghost cultivators on the battlefield, Mo Fan restored it to the form of the Black Banner.

Compared to the vast and boundless Black River, this black banner, which was only a few feet in size, was insignificant.

Under Mo Fan's control, the Soul-Devouring Banner transformed into a wisp of black mist and flew into the depths of the white bones scattered on the ground.

After doing all this, he focused all his attention on activating the Soul Devouring Banner to refine the ghost cultivators trapped in the inner ghost domain.

In fact, the refining speed far exceeded Mo Fan's expectations.

At first, the Soul Devouring Banner was slow in refining these ghost cultivators, but as more ghost cultivators were refined, the power of the Soul Devouring Banner increased greatly, and the speed of refining ghosts naturally became faster.

In the short time it takes for an incense stick to burn, all the ghosts below the level of ghost generals inside the Soul Devouring Banner were refined, totaling nearly 400 million ghosts!

hum-

The moment the four hundred million ghosts were completely refined, the entire Soul Devouring Banner trembled violently. Mo Fan then discovered that the ghost domain inside the Soul Devouring Banner had become even larger, and even his own divine sense could hardly reach its boundaries.

This means that the ghost realm inside the Soul-Devouring Banner is comparable to half of the Hundred Thousand Mountains!

At the same time, the surface of the Soul-Devouring Banner also underwent subtle changes, turning completely from black to silver, with faint gold lines outlining complex array patterns on it.

"This is... the Billion Soul-Devouring Banner!!"

Mo Fan's spirits lifted immediately, and he was filled with excitement.

"Good heavens! Your Soul Banner has actually advanced after refining so many ghosts. It can now be called an ancient treasure, and one of the more powerful ones at that!"

Even Grandpa Qian was alarmed by the strange changes in the Soul-Devouring Banner, and clicked his tongue and said, "If you can refine those Ghost Kings together, the power of your Soul-Devouring Banner may be comparable to some weak Heavenly Treasures!"

If one day you can take it a step further and refine it into a heaven-reaching spiritual treasure, then this banner will no longer be the Soul-Devouring Banner.

"what?"

"If it's not the Soul-Devouring Banner, then what is it?"

Mo Fan was taken aback and asked instinctively.

"I have heard some information about the Soul-Devouring Banner in the Upper Realm. It is said that once the Soul-Devouring Banner has collected the souls of a hundred billion living beings, it can be called the Soul-Destroying Banner, and its power is much stronger than that of ordinary Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures."

Often, a single wave of the soul banner can instantly extract the soul of a cultivator of the same level!

"So powerful?" Mo Fan was also surprised when he heard this.

Although the Soul-Devouring Banner is powerful enough now, it is because it is used to deal with ghost cultivators. Ghost cultivators are originally soul beings, and the Soul-Devouring Banner is a natural counter to these ghosts.

However, it would not be so easy to use this banner against beings at the Saint Venerable Realm. At least it would not be able to achieve the exaggerated feat of collecting the souls of cultivators of the same realm with a wave of the banner.

"What's so great about that!"

"The final form of the Soul Banner magic weapon is truly powerful!" Grandpa Qian chuckled.

"How powerful?"

Mo Fan immediately swallowed and asked expectantly.

"The final form of the Soul Banner-type magic weapon is also called the Human Emperor Banner. At that time, it will be stripped of all its luster, and not to mention you minor cultivators, even the immortals of the upper realms will be in awe of it."

However, the Human Emperor Banner is not so easy to forge. I, the Immortal Venerable, have only seen it once in a great battle.

Tsk tsk... In that battle, some old guy managed to wipe out most of the battlefield with just a Human Emperor Banner..."

Mo Fan listened with great longing, but soon asked curiously, "Uncle Qian, have you regained your memories?"

"Cough cough... How could it be possible to recover?"

"My injuries have not yet fully healed. Sometimes fragments of memories flash through my mind, which is why I know some things from the past," Grandpa Qian quickly explained.

"is it?"

Mo Fan looked suspicious, and he was very skeptical of Grandpa Qian's explanation.

However, he didn't press the matter further, because he knew very well that if Grandpa Qian didn't want to tell him, it would be pointless for him to ask.

More than whether Grandpa Qian had regained his memory, Mo Fan was curious about the method of crafting the Human Emperor Banner, so he quickly changed the subject and asked about it.

"The refining method is not very clear, but it requires at least the souls of trillions of living beings."

"So remember this: anyone who can forge the Soul-Destroying Banner is not easy to deal with, because each of them has been tainted with countless sins."

As for the Emperor's Banner...

If you ever see anyone using the Emperor's Banner in the future, run as far away as you can!

"Is it really that exaggerated?" Mo Fan rolled his eyes.

"Hehe, an exaggeration?"

"There used to be a saying in the cultivation world: 'If you don't work hard in your cultivation, you'll end up as brothers in the Emperor's Banner.' Do you think that's just a joke?" Old Man Qian sneered repeatedly.

"oh, I understand now!"

Mo Fan nodded, said nothing more, and focused his attention back on the inside of the Soul Devouring Banner.

After its advancement, the Soul-Devouring Banner became even more powerful, and in no time it completely refined those stubbornly resisting ghost generals.

"not good!"

"Let's join forces to break this treasure, or we'll all die here!!"

The changes inside the Soul Devouring Banner naturally attracted the attention of the ghost kings, and one of the Soul Sea Ghost Kings immediately cried out in alarm.

"it is good!"

In order to survive, the ghost kings who had been fighting each other to the death suddenly joined forces and flew to the same area.

"Stop them! Don't let them leave!!"

In the distance, the man in white gave a deep order, fully aware of how powerful these ghost kings would be when they joined forces.

Although the Soul-Devouring Banner has now been upgraded to an ancient treasure, its weakness still lies within. If these ghost kings join forces and bombard one spot with all their might, they might be able to break through this treasure.

Under the orders of the white-robed figure, twenty-five Saintly Venerable Realm cougars stepped forward to intercept them, attempting to prevent these ghost kings from gathering in one place.

However, these ghost kings, driven mad by their will to survive, disregarded everything and rampaged through the enemy lines. The fighting power they unleashed in that brief moment was astonishing, and they quickly broke through the blockade of the ghost accomplices.

"not good!"

The man in white was shocked to see this. Although he was extremely anxious, there was nothing he could do.

With his current strength, he simply cannot stop these ghost kings.

"fine."

Just then, a calm voice rang out beside the man in white.

The man in white turned his head and saw that it was Mo Fan. He immediately bowed to him.

"Emperor!"

"Don't worry, none of them will escape!"

Mo Fan chuckled, then formed a hand seal and uttered a soft shout.

Immediately afterwards, pale golden array patterns appeared in the dark void of the entire Ghost Realm, followed by strands of golden threads that fell down and headed straight for the twenty-odd Ghost Kings.

"What's this?!"

A ghost king exclaimed in surprise, raising his hand to unleash a divine power of law, instantly shattering the golden threads.

"Ha! It seems he's nothing special. I could easily shatter these threads with a single casual strike!"

Seeing that the golden threads had been easily destroyed, the Ghost King immediately sneered.

However, in the next instant, golden threads surged out from the surrounding void, densely packed, even denser than a hair, and directly wrapped around it.

"what?!"

The ghost king was shocked and kept using his supernatural powers to attack, but in the end he was still tightly bound by these golden threads.

The same scene was playing out in various parts of the Soul-Devouring Banner Ghost Realm.

In a short while, the twenty-odd ghost kings who had just tried to break the banner and escape were all captured!
