Chapter 61 Saving the Sect Disciples
Lin Zhifeng's mind was wandering, but his hands never stopped. He used the water and fire swords in combination, making them extremely powerful. He killed at least several humanoid creatures from the demon realm without sustaining any injury himself.
However, the other disciples of the Sword Sect were not so lucky. Many of them were scratched and bitten by demons from the Demon Realm, and demonic energy quickly invaded their bodies.
When Lin Zhifeng left the Dark Night Forest, he had already given all the exorcism pills to the Ninth Elder. Now, seeing this scene, he could only watch helplessly.
Moreover, judging from the injuries sustained by the Sword Sect disciples, it turns out that more than half of them have been infected with demonic energy.
Just as Lin Zhifeng was at his wit's end, the system suddenly said concisely and quickly: "Master can spend 100 luck points to upgrade the shop to an intermediate shop. You can also spend 1,000 luck points to unlock the alchemy function."
The system, probably fearing exposure, risked saying a few words before falling silent again.
However, Lin Zhifeng was already familiar with everything about the system, so he quickly jumped out of the battle after killing his opponent.
He found a relatively safe place and opened the system's control panel.
The system had refreshed with new main and side quests. Lin Zhifeng didn't bother to look at them closely; he simply opened the system shop and quickly activated the intermediate shop.
The intermediate shop's inventory was suddenly updated to include fifty types of medicine, with the Exorcism Pill prominently listed, marked as one hundred pills.
Lin Zhifeng chose to redeem all of them without hesitation.
Then he found the alchemy function in the side quests and activated it without hesitation.
A small icon resembling an alchemy furnace appeared in the control panel.
Lin Zhifeng opened the alchemy furnace and discovered that there were hundreds, even thousands, of kinds of pills that could be refined. Lin Zhifeng was frantic with worry, but fortunately, he discovered the search function provided by the system in time.
Lin Zhifeng typed in the words "Exorcism Pill". In the blink of an eye, a pill recipe popped up.
Exorcism Pill: Main ingredient: Demonic energy crystal core. Primarily derived from demonic beasts in the demon realm...
Auxiliary herbs: Blood Spirit Grass, Wood Spirit Flower...
Lin Zhifeng had acquired quite a few spiritual herbs and flowers in the secret realm, but since he didn't lack spirit stones at the time, he didn't sell them. He never expected that they would come in handy now.
He stuffed all the spiritual herbs from his storage bracelet and the magic crystal cores from his storage bag into the system's inventory. He then instructed the system, "System, I'm busy saving people right now, so I'll leave the alchemy to you. The materials are all in the inventory; go and get them yourself. Call me when you're done."
After saying that, he took the bottle containing one hundred exorcism pills and started wandering around.
When they encountered infected disciples, they would put a pill in their mouths.
These infected disciples, knowing their lives were nearing their end when they were scratched, fought with their last ounce of strength to kill as many demons as possible. When Lin Zhifeng suddenly handed them a pill, they assumed it was an antidote. Touched, they couldn't help but think: "Junior Brother Lin is such a good person, it's a pity he's a fool. This demonic energy can't be neutralized by ordinary antidotes! What a waste of a good medicine!"
However, not long after they took it, they found that the symptoms of their bodies being infected by the demonic energy disappeared, and the demonic energy gradually faded away until it was expelled from their bodies.
The pills that Junior Brother Lin gave me were actually effective at expelling demonic energy.
Lin Zhifeng's pills were quickly distributed. Fortunately, the system was also helpful, and according to Lin Zhifeng's instructions, it helped him refine all his materials into exorcism pills.
Lin Zhifeng was overjoyed when he received a system notification that the medicine was ready.
He opened the control panel and saw that there were 10,000 exorcism pills.
Lin Zhifeng's vision went black. It was over. He guessed that this was because they had used up one of his medicine-making materials.
Forget it, we can't worry about so many things during this extraordinary time.
Lin Zhifeng now has abundant supplies and has begun distributing medicine everywhere. Previously, he prioritized his seriously injured senior brothers, but now he not only gives some to those with minor injuries, but also provides a pill to those who are not injured, in advance.
In this way, the number of Sword Sect disciples almost stopped decreasing, while the number of demons in the Demon Realm decreased with each kill.
After the elders and Void Refinement Realm experts who went to seal the rift returned after completing the seal, the creatures from the Demon Realm that had invaded the Sword Sect were completely wiped out by the Sword Sect members.
Although the Sword Sect still lost quite a few Nascent Soul and Divine Breaking stage disciples, it was still a relatively good result.
Of course, Lin Zhifeng deserves the most credit for this.
Without his exorcism pills, most of the Sword Sect disciples would have died from demonic infection after this great battle.
If even one in ten Sword Sect disciples survives, it will be a tremendous loss for the entire sect. The Sword Sect may very well remain dormant for the next few centuries because of this battle.
Fortunately, the ending was not bad.
Under the guidance of the elders, the Sword Sect members carried out post-battle work in an orderly manner. The wounded were sent back to the sect for treatment; the damaged mountain gate and barrier were repaired.
The experts at the Refinement Realm rushed to other sects to provide support without stopping.
When the dust finally settled, everyone learned that the top sects in the cultivation world had been attacked by the demon realm at the same time.
It seems that this time the demon realm has launched a premeditated and well-prepared all-out attack.
This attack from the demon realm caused great losses to several top-tier sects in the cultivation world, with some sects even falling to the level of second-tier sects as a result.
In the end, it turned out that the Sword Sect suffered the least loss.
The news of the demonic rift in the Dark Night Forest originated from the Sword Sect. To cooperate in sealing the rift, various sects dispatched several experts at the Void Refinement Realm. However, they fell for the demonic realm's diversionary tactic, resulting in heavy losses when the demonic realm later attacked.
Many sects have expressed their dissatisfaction with the Sword Sect because of this.
Although the Sword Sect provided timely assistance to some sects, preventing their annihilation.
However, many ungrateful people still said a lot of bad things about the Sword Sect.
The disciples of the Sword Sect were furious at their ungrateful behavior.
Lin Jun and his group even shouted, "If we had known better, we wouldn't have sent anyone to rescue them. We should have just let them die as God had ordained."
The Seventh Elder, who happened to be passing by, overheard this and immediately struck him on the head with a shovel.
Lin Jun, writhing in pain, clutched his head and ran away, complaining, "I didn't say anything wrong. We shouldn't be such pushovers! Anyway, good people don't get rewarded!"
The Seventh Elder pointed at him and said, "Your cultivation is insufficient! I often teach you to do good deeds and not worry about the future. You haven't listened to a word of it."
Lin Jun was about to argue back when Lin Zhifeng quickly covered his mouth and said to the Seventh Elder with a grin, "Seventh Elder, I understand this problem now. Actually, it's like this: relying solely on our Sword Sect to fight against the Demon Realm is definitely not enough. We also need to unite all other forces that can be united. Although they are weaker, at least they can make up the numbers, which is better than nothing. So sometimes, don't take them too seriously and don't be too concerned about them."
"Am I right?" Lin Zhifeng smiled innocently.
