Blood Resentment Black Steel could only be created by watering fine steel with the blood of mortals who died violently—a process necessitating slaughter. Such violent deaths imbued the metal with deep resentment.While such acts accumulated significant karmic debts, even if high-level cultivators commanded lower-level ones to perform these deeds, the karma would still affect the higher-level cultivators. Thus, the production of Blood Resentment Black Steel had long been lost to time, with few daring to defy the world's censure to craft it.However, Chu Xuan relied solely on his own efforts. Fortunately, he still held a small advantage: the vast Blue Star was overrun with zombies. Producing Blood Resentment Black Steel was merely a matter of time.Two years later, Chu Xuan had managed to acquire ten jin of Blood Resentment Black Steel, successfully upgrading the Evil Soul Chain to a high-grade magic treasure.The spirit within the chain, Huikong, had also made significant advancements.

The head abbot immediately showed a respectful demeanor, "So it is the esteemed True Master Tiancang from the upper sects. Has Elder Tiancang come to seek our Elder Dehong of the Celestial Sound Zen Temple? Elder Dehong is currently in seclusion, I'm afraid it might be difficult for him to meet with you."True Master Tiancang smiled gently, "No matter, I am here on orders from the Reincarnation Divine Sect to inspect Celestial Sound Star. There is no need to disturb fellow daoist Dehong."With that, he produced a command token personally bestowed by the leader of the Reincarnation Divine Sect. Seeing the token, the head abbot nodded, "Please, Elder Tiancang, feel free to inspect any place on Celestial Sound Star at your leisure."True Master Tiancang smiled, "That would be excellent." He lightly tapped the ground and vanished like a gust of wind in the blink of an eye.Shortly afterward, he appeared at Long Life Mountain within the territory of Liu Nation on Celestial Sound Star. This

Then, he made his way to Scorpio Peak, where Bai Jinkun's dwelling was located. At the summit of Scorpio Peak, Bai Jinkun, overflowing with excitement, raised his wine cup."Hahaha! Thank you all for coming to Scorpio Peak!"Chu Xuan, Wan Ying, and two other Golden Core cultivators sat among the guests, all raising their cups in return, "Congratulations to Senior Brother Bai on advancing to the late Golden Core stage!"A seductively dressed female cultivator tilted back her pale neck and downed her drink in one gulp, exclaiming, "For someone as frugal as Senior Brother Bai to bring out the Drunken Immortal Brew, I must drink a few more cups today."Bai Jinkun laughed heartily, his spirits high, "Drink, drink, drink! I am the host today! Let's enjoy ourselves to the fullest, no leaving until we're all drunk!"An elderly cultivator with white hair smiled and said, "Junior Brother Bai's talent is the best among us. Advancing to the late stage of the Golden Core is only natural for him! T

The four Foundation Establishment disciples were immensely grateful, looking at Xiao Tianjiao with even greater admiration.Zhu Ang expressed regret, "It's a pity we couldn't personally slay any demonic sect cultivators!""Yes, indeed," sighed Tang Feng. "We came here hoping to kill one or two demonic cultivators, yet we haven't managed to fulfill that wish."Xiao Tianjiao smiled and said, "No matter, I have already scouted the area. Not far to the southeast, there's a stronghold of the Myriad Souls Sect called Yin Wood Villa, which is surely guarded by some demonic cultivators.""I will provide support; the task of punishing the evildoers will be yours," he delegated.The four disciples rejoiced, "Thank you, Uncle Master Xiao!"Moments later, they arrived at Yin Wood Villa. True to its name, the area around the villa was abundant with Yin wood, which is why the Myriad Souls Sect had established a villa there and stationed several Qi cultivators to oversee the mortals who chopped and

Meanwhile, Chu Xuan returned to Black Evil Peak with Wang Hu and other Foundation Establishment cultivators. A cultivator from Scorpio Peak was already waiting there with Zhao Rong."Elder Lin, this is the cauldron my master instructed me to deliver to you," he said respectfully.Chu Xuan nodded and instructed Zhu Jie, "Clean her up and place her in my cultivation chamber."Zhu Jie snickered, "Yes, I'll make sure she's fresh and fragrant!"Zhao Rong's face was pale. She knew what was to come. Yet... becoming a cauldron was somewhat acceptable to her. Having been captured by demonic cultivators, she felt fortunate just to be alive.Moments later, inside the cultivation chamber, Zhao Rong, draped only in a light gauze, anxiously awaited the arrival of the peak's master.The stone door burst open. Chu Xuan, having had his fill, strode into the cultivation chamber."Master... I am willing to serve you... just treat me well," Zhao Rong said tremblingly, her fair skin blushing with shame fr
