WHOOSH!

The Soul Refining Flag surged with a bloody glow, swallowing the Soul General, who had just had a full meal.

The remains and souls of the Liu and Wu Family cultivators had all become a delicious feast for the late-stage Class II Demon Soul General.

As for the peak Class II cultivators like Master Hong Jue and the Ghost Bride, they could only watch enviously…

For now, Shen Mo had no plans to cultivate a Class III Demon Soul General! After all, the Soul Refining Flag was an evil cultivator magic artifact, and no matter how strong his control of it was, there was a certain risk of backlash. With his current Cultivation Realm, he feared that he wouldn't be able to suppress an early-stage Class III Demon Soul General! This Flag, instead, would become a burden. He could start cultivating it later, once he advanced to Layer VII of the Qi Gathering Realm.

As for the unscathed magic artifacts and Universe Bags, they were all collected by the two.

BOOM!

Shen Mo slashed out a sword Qi, annihilating the temporary cave mansion on Sweet Spring Mountain.

Chen Mengze, on the other hand, took out a Universe Bag and collected the heads of the two families' cultivators one by one.

When the Chen Family was wiped out, most of the bodies of the family members were either destroyed in flames or thrown into a mass-grave site and eaten by dogs. Chen Mengze wished to find a place to pay respects, but couldn't find one. Only the ruins of the Chen Family in Sishui City, which were still deserted, could be used for this purpose.

SWOOSH!

SWOOSH!

The two rode their flying swords and flew toward the city. With a mere distance of twenty miles, they arrived in a moment.

The Sishui City at this time was awfully silent, with not even a patrolling armored soldier in sight. But Shen Mo knew most cultivators in the city were closely watching the movements of the Liu and Wu families. Even the moment he appeared outside Liu's mansion, several Divine Senses were transmitted towards him.

Shen Mo didn't bother to pay attention to them for the time being. He pulled out all the Attack Talismans from the Universe Bag and handed them over to Chen Mengze.

"We can't use the Riverside Sect's magic in the city like we did on Sweet Spring Mountain, so try not to use it if you can!"

"Also, put away all the commonly used magic artifacts."

"The Liu and Wu families now only have a few Body Tempering Realm cultivators remaining. These talismans should be enough for you."

"As for the other members of the two families…"

Shen Mo was silent for a moment, then flew towards the Liu family's secret vault.

As for ordinary mortals with no cultivation, unless they were extremely evil, Shen Mo would not kill them. However, he wasn't the one whose family had been completely wiped out! What Chen Mengze chose to do was up to her.

The Liu family's secret vault was located over a hundred feet deep underground beneath Liu Dingjiang's residence. It required a specific seal to open the entrance Prohibition.

However, the memory obtained from the Soul Searching Spell was fragmented and incomplete.

While Shen Mo did not have the complete seal, he did have the Constellations Palm. One of the Palms was specifically designed to break Prohibitions.

"The Seven Constellations of the Northern Black Tortoise, Palm. Void!"

Shen Mo formed seals with both hands. As he laid down the final seal, a mouse-like phantom charged at the Prohibition. Subsequently, its sharp teeth seemed to have bitten onto the Prohibition rune.

CRACK! The Prohibition on the entrance was shattered. The light barrier that blocked Shen Mo's path also dimmed instantly.

When Shen Mo had first learned this Palm, he had been somewhat skeptical, wondering if the Spirit Storage Rat contained a bit of the Void Sun Mouse's bloodline. After all, both had some resistance to Formations and Prohibitions, and they were both rodents! It just seemed too coincidental. But the phantom Void Sun Mouse formed by the Palm seemed to crack the key rune of the Prohibition, thereby destroying the entire Prohibition. On the other hand, the "Hiding" Skill of the Spirit Storage Rat seemed to ignore the Prohibition. It seemed they weren't quite the same!

With the Prohibition shattered, Shen Mo didn't think any further and stepped into the secret vault.

Although the Liu Family was one of the two major families in Sishui City, there wasn't much valuable stuff in their secret vault. There were only some spirit stones, basic materials, and some low-grade Elixirs, talismans, and magic artifacts, which was normal!

Cultivation itself consumes a lot of resources. If they had treasures, Liu Dingjiang and his son would have used them long ago. High-grade Elixirs, talismans, magic artifacts, and the like were all carried with them. They would never be left in the secret vault to gather dust!

The Purple Gold Halberd in Liu Yu's hand had consumed quite a lot of precious spirit gold. He planned to refine it again later to see if he could turn it into a high-grade profound level Flying Sword.

The treasure they had obtained from the ruins was actually a good item! This item rightfully belonged to the Chen Family. If there was a chance, he would head to Dasheng Mountain and Purple Bamboo Valley to reclaim this treasure. With this treasure, Senior Sister Chen's cultivation progress could also be accelerated!

The so-called "opportunity" naturally meant when the Fire Sparrow Master fell! Or when Shen Mo's power could rival that of a cultivator at Layer VII of the Spirit Sea Realm.

From the souls of Liu Dingjiang, Wu Dayong, and others, Shen Mo glimpsed the true face of this treasure.

It turned out to be a Yin-Yang jade disk. It could absorb the essence of the sun and moon, turning them into drops of fine wine. This kind of Spiritual Liquid had medicinal properties equivalent to a Grade II Elixir! What was more valuable was that even if consumed in large quantities, it would not produce a single trace of pill's poison. This exotic treasure, to Shen Mo and other people with excellent Talent, was actually not worth much. But for cultivators of average talent, it was an unparalleled treasure! It could speed up cultivation speed and narrow the gap in talent with exceptional individuals.

However, this Yin-Yang jade disk was jointly held by Dasheng Mountain and Purple Bamboo Valley, and it greatly benefited their disciples. To reclaim it… first, he would have to face the Fire Sparrow Master, a powerhouse at Layer VII of the Spirit Sea Realm!

After leaving the secret vault of the Liu Family, Shen Mo swept through the Treasure Hall of the Wu Family in the same way.

The bulk of the assets of the Liu and Wu families were the various properties in Sishui City, which Shen Mo couldn't take away. These would only benefit other small families and rogue cultivators in the city.

And the resources that could be taken away, if converted into middle-grade spirit stones, were roughly about three hundred. Including the spoils of war obtained by killing the Qi Gathering Realm cultivators of the two families on Sweet Spring Mountain, it should reach about four hundred middle-grade Spirit Stones.

Half of it needed to be returned to Chen Mengze and Uncle Chen!

After coming out of the Wu Family Treasure Hall, Shen Mo found Chen Mengze waiting for him at the gate of the Wu Family.

A sweep with his sense revealed that all those from the Liu and Wu families who had any amount of cultivation, old or young, had all been slaughtered by Chen Mengze. Their severed heads were piled up on the ruins of the Chen Family, along with the skulls of Liu Dingjiang and others.

And those of the two families who were too young, had extremely poor roots and bones, were low-ranking, or had not cultivated for other reasons… they did not suffer implication!

Honestly, whether these people lived or died didn't concern Shen Mo much! If they were killed, it was nothing more than paying for the lives of the ordinary mortals from the Chen Family who were slaughtered. If they could survive and leave, it was just Chen Mengze's "kindness"!

However, the fact that Chen Mengze could stop her killing intent in time was somewhat comforting to Shen Mo. Shen Mo noticed the gloom between her brows had significantly lessened now that she had taken revenge for her blood feud.

She should be able to try to advance to Layer VII of the Qi Gathering Realm soon after she returned to the sect!

At this moment, Shen Mo suddenly noticed a powerful Divine Sense wave sweep quickly over his body.

"A Spirit Sea Realm expert!" Chen Mengze's expression also turned serious.

Shen Mo paused slightly and then nodded.

In the view of his Flawless Dharma Eye, a spirit light was flying from Dasheng Mountain with an appalling escape speed, rushing towards Sishui City. Judging from its momentum, it was probably not the Fire Sparrow Master, who was at Layer VII of the Spirit Sea Realm. It was Liu Yu's Master, the powerful figure at Layer II of the Spirit Sea Realm, the White Ape Master!
