The Demon God Emperor
Ch. 162 - Marking the Soul
Qing Shan then appeared in the mountain peak area where the Lu Clan was before the seal belonging to the Skull Ghost King disappeared.
His face was filled with cold killing intent. Tonight, while fighting the Skull King, he had shown too many of his secret techniques. To prevent future problems, it is best to get rid of all the eyewitnesses who see them.
He then spread his spirit senses with killing intent across the two hundred meters entire area of the mountain.
Every member of the Lu Clan was swept within the range of Qing Shan's spirit senses. So that all of his hovering spirit senses would turn into deadly sword souls.
Under the pressure of these spirit senses, cultivators who were under the Harmonious Spirit realm had difficulty standing up. The few remaining Harmonious Spirit Realm experts including the Lu Clan's army leader, Lu Ming, looked at Qing Shan in admiration.
As for the old-looking ruler of the Lu Clan, Lu Zen, he sensed Qing Shan's aura. After taking the power-enhancing pill, he had temporarily broken through to the realm of the Golden Realm, but his spirit sense realm was still below Qing Shan, meaning that the fate of the Lu Clan was no longer within his control.
'This Qing Shan has the power to annihilate our clan like that person just now. Now he's back here, but the other guy is nowhere to be seen. It was certain that he had delivered the monster-like young man.."
This thought raised Lu Zen's fear of Qing Shan to the highest level in his entire life. Thinking back on Qing Shan's fight scene earlier made his spine goosebumps. He was scared and realized that Qing Shan had come here to exterminate all of them, their entire Lu Clan.
He knew that Qing Shan had revealed many of his secret techniques. Each technique was enough to attract the greed of countless masters.
While his life force was being drained, his mind was racing a hundred times faster, looking for a solution to their current crisis of the Lu Clan..He then glanced at the spring pool and the desperate members of his clan and made a decision.
Dragging his weak body, he dashed straight up the mountain peak like a beam of light. Despite being suffering from injuries on his body, he still had a calm expression. When he was three hundred meters away from the peak, he stopped and clenched his fists towards Qing Shan.
"I am the Patriarch of the Lu Clan, Lu Zen, come to see Elder Qing ."
Qing Shan remained silent with his eyes closed. The feeling of his spirit had locked onto Lu Zen. As long as this old man moved, it was certain that he would be killed instantly.
"Chief Qing, can you let all the members of the Lu Clan stay alive?" Lu Zen said with a bitter smile.
"I'm not interested in the life or destruction of the Lu Clan, but I can't allow the potential threat to be limited to me after this."
“If our clan becomes your vassal and allows you to instill soul-marking techniques on all of them, can you save them for their lives? Our clan has innumerable mountains of spiritual springs, artifacts, and pills, and all of them can be taken Qing Elder ” Lu Zen replied as he gritted his teeth.
Given his arrogant personality, he would absolutely not allow his clan to become one's follower, but he was reluctant to see his descendants and grandchildren die in vain.
Lu Zen could see that if Qing Shan really wanted to exterminate his clan, he would have done so the moment he appeared, but until now, Qing Shan had not made a move.
As for Qing Shan, his eyes were still filled with praise, looking at Lu Zen.
“You are a good thinker with a calm disposition, you are truly qualified to be the patriarch of the clan. Don'worry. I just don't want your clan members to talk too much about today's events. Go and gather your clan disciples here, I will mark their souls. After that, I will forget about today's troubles. ”
Qing Shan showed a faint smile. This made all the members of the Lu clan sigh in relief in their hearts.
For Qing Shan, it was no big deal for him to exterminate the Lu Clan or not. After losing most of their army and a few Harmonious Spirit Realm masters, the current strength of the Lu Clan was no longer of interest to Qing Shan.
As for the artifacts and pills in the Lu Clan's possession, Qing Shan did not put them in his eyes at all except for their spiritual pools. Regardless of Qing Shan's cold voice agreeing to let the members of the Lu clan remain and live a very pleasant life for Lu Zen.
If one could stay alive, why would one have to choose the path to death? Even if their souls were marked by Qing Shan with his techniques, at least they still had a chance to live. If not for this young man, they would have all ended up in the stomach of the Skull King.
"All of you, come and gather here at the foot of the Spring Mountain and let Senior Qing Shan mark the soul mark to you guys.!"
As the patriarch of the clan, no one dared to violate his direct orders. But upon learning that their souls would be marked, they showed anxious and worried expressions as if they would lose their freedom as well.
Qing Shan went to the lower area. Not long after, Lu Zen led his remaining group of disciples to the foot of the mountain.
"Seniors can mark their souls now!" Lu Zen said as he cupped his fists towards Qing Shan respectfully, but the death aura coming out of his body grew stronger. It was because of the decaying effect of the pill he had consumed, not much time was left before his life force disappeared.
Qing Shan only sighed a little because he had a good impression of this old man. He was worthy of being the patriarch of his clan for many years. He was able to see the big picture and was willing to sacrifice himself for his entire clan. If he could still stay alive, it would definitely be of great help.
Unfortunately, the pill he consumed was a self-destructive pill. It required one to pay the price of his life to get a temporary boost of strength. This was a law of nature, even Qing Shan had no way of saving Lu Zen now.
After which, Qing Shan then marked their souls into the sea of consciousness of every member of the Lu Clan.
Now their souls who have been marked and filled with****** are disappointed, then go to clear the ruins and rebuild their clan.
The seal covering the area had almost completely faded away, so Qing Shan had no intention of staying any longer.
Under Lu Zen's lead, Qing Shan arrived at the forbidden ground of the Lu Clan. Using his container space bracelet, he absorbed the entire spiritual spring into the space of the container bracelet.
