When the sharp sword beams accompanied by killing intent bore into the nine-headed experts corpse, they began a complete decimation of his body.

Whoosh.

The corpse disintegrated and dispersed, and everything returned to the land.

Immediately, large amounts of merit descended. The richness of the merit made it come down like layer of golden light that enveloped Qin Yun. Yi Xiao watched by the side in anticipation. While Qin Yun received the merit, he did not hesitate to transfer everything to the Misty Rain Sword.

We are all beings of the Three Realms, said Qin Yun. The Three Realms nurtured us to the point of us draining its own Heaven and Earth spiritual energies to fuel our cultivation. Right down to the food we eat, everything stems from the Three Realms. After death, our strength returns to the Three Realms. As for these experts from another universe, they are not of this world. After their bodies disintegrate, they are absorbed by the Three Realms. Its something that adds to the Three Realms which results in the bestowment of merit.

Ever since Gonggong smashed into Mt. Buzhou, the foundation of the Three Realms has been severely damaged. If its foundation was still perfect, it probably wouldnt care too much about this sacrifice, Qin Yun said as he discovered that the bestowing of merit had already stopped.

As the disintegration happened in a blink of an eye, the merit bestowment happened extremely quickly.

This is a perfected Great Dao expert from a different universe. How much merit was bestowed? pressed Yi Xiao.

Qin Yun transferred all the merit he received into the Misty Rain Sword and frowned. Its equivalent to killing one or two Ancestral Fiends.

It was lower than expected.

That little? Yi Xiao could not help but say. This is an expert at the perfected Great Dao realm.

Killing a perfected Great Dao expert of the Three Realms wouldnt give merit, and instead, it would be a sin. Qin Yun said thoughtfully. The Three Realms is constantly absorbing the Chaos powers of other universes; therefore, it does not care much for typical sacrifices. It probably requires a special energy signature to those lives for its benefit. I heard that capturing an enemy and bringing it to the Three Realms alive before killing it will result in more merit. Perhaps its the sacrifice of the Essence Soul that is more beneficial.

Sacrificing a corpse alone ultimately gives partial benefits. Qin Yun was without solution.

Back in his battle with the mysterious Fate, even if he captured one of its puppets alive, a mere thought of Fate allowed him to abandon the envoys, turning them to corpses immediately.

Try the next one, said Yi Xiao immediately.

Okay.

Qin Yun waved his hand and another corpse appeared on the ground.

The black-robed humanoid fogs corpse now revealed its true appearance. It had greenish-black skin. Looking at its corpse felt like seeing a faint but massive projection of a divine sea.

Go.

Qin Yun released his Misty Rain Swords sword beams and began disintegrating the corpse.

Another corpse was decimated.

Upon seeing this scene, Qin Yun suddenly sighed.

He also knew that the three corpses he received were probably long dead. Even if they werent dead, they were living lives akin to a puppets.

When the corpse disintegrated and returned to the Three Realms, merit descended.

Soon.

When the merit stopped descending, Qin Yun frowned slightly. This was because the black-robed fogs corpse gave slightly less merit.

What happened? pressed Yi Xiao.

As Qin Yun transferred the merit to the Misty Rain Sword, he said, Its about the same as before; however, the last corpse is a little special. His body was extremely powerful and had potent vitality.

With that said, he waved his hand.

Boom!

The giants corpse was the largest. Thankfully, there was an array formation set up in Mt. Lightning Roar. Even space was distorted to allow the giants corpse to be put down.

This corpse sure is huge. Yi Xiao looked at the mountainous giants body in shock. She was like a speck in front of the corpse.

The strength of his body is above Daoist Wens. Qin Yun laughed. Goumang, Rushou, and I joined forces but failed to kill him even after we trapped him. Of course he is now already dead. It will be much easier destroying his body.

While alive, the power of the Essence Soul controlled the body, making the bodys defenses stronger.

Once the Essence Soul was gone, the body weakened greatly.

The merit received from sacrificing this body should be a lot more. Qin Yuns mind stirred as he released the sword beams. They entered the giants body through his nose and began causing damage within.

Chi! Chi! Chi!

Every spot of the giant was extremely resilient. The Misty Rain Sword beams actually failed to slice through them.

The body has weakened in death, but to destroy it, Ill still need to use my Intrinsic Flying Sword. Qin Yun released his Misty Rain Sword wistfully. It directly sliced through the giants skin and bore into his body to begin the damage.

However, the speed of the destruction was relatively slow.

The corpse is too big and the vitality it contains is too potent, Qin Yun said with a laugh. It will probably take ten minutes to completely destroy it.

With your strength, you still need to spend ten minutes on a dead corpse? Yi Xiao marveled.

Its very powerful. Its vitality is no way inferior to Wood God Goumangs. The potency of his body matches nearly that of a Connate Pinnacle Numinous treasure. Theres only a chance of destroying it after its death. Qin Yun laughed. He was the first one to fight us. To first use a body that is nearly unkillable, the intended strategy was probably to probe our strength.

Qin Yun somewhat understood the mysterious Fate.

By sending an unkillable envoy

He could figure out the visitors background and strength.

If the enemy was too powerful? He could flee quickly!

If he was confident, he would select three envoys that had an advantage over the enemy so as to kill them.

However, there was clearly a misjudgment of Qin Yuns strength while fighting them; therefore, he suffered a setback.

Oh?

Qin Yuns expression changed as he looked at the corpse in front of him. Somewhere in the veins of the giants corpse, Qin Yun caused a wisp of golden light seep out through his Misty Rain Sword. The wisp of golden light appeared lofty, like it was a power from a higher existence.

What happened? Yi Xiao inquired.

Inside his body is a very special power, muttered Qin Yun. While I was destroying his corpse, this special power remained entrenched deep in the corpses bloodline. It is still able to resist my destruction out of sheer instinct.

Special power? Yi Xiao was puzzled.

Ill first extract this special power. Qin Yuns Misty Rain Sword enveloped the power within the giants corpse and every bit extracted was transported out with sword flashes.

Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!

Sword flashes carried the special power and flew out of the corpse.

They were wisps of distorted golden threads.

As the golden threads were extracted, the corpse weakened. The damage delivered became faster. The original estimate of ten minutes was reduced to seconds after the ten wisps of golden thread was extracted. The corpse was disintegrated and returned to the land as large amounts of merit descended.

What power is this? Qin Yun carefully looked at the ten distorted golden threads.

The merit the Three Realms bestowed finally came to a stop.

Sacrifice.

Qin Yun attempted destroying the powers of a wisp of the golden thread. It was filled with endless vitality, but without any body to bond to, it was destroyed by the Misty Rain Sword. The Three Realms also delivered some merit which was quite sizable.

Brother Yun, hows the merit situation now? Yi Xiao pressed.

95%. Its still quite far from a Merit Cardinal treasure, said Qin Yun. If I sacrifice the remaining nine wisps, it should be able to reach 97%.

Yi Xiao was astonished. This mysterious power can be sacrificed for that much merit?

Hmm.

Qin Yun carefully observed the golden threads. Under his scrutiny, the golden threads were enlarged thousands of times. They turned into a massive golden mystic chart which faintly outlined a massive giant. Despite seeing this figure from afar, Qin Yun sensed a form of repression. It was a feeling poles apart from facing his master or Goddess Nwa.

The massive giant was likely at the Heavenly Dao realm, but its body was ridiculously powerful.

The golden mystic chart was naturally contained by the bloodline. It was unparalleled in terms of its profundity.

Qin Yun said softly, If Im not wrong, this is the power of a bloodline.

That giant should be a blood descendant of a powerful existence.

For his body to be this powerful, it has to do with his cultivation, but also his bloodline. Qin Yun observed carefully.
