Huo Qi's soul still wanted to struggle, but Chu Nan did not give him the chance.

The Battle Soul Banner instantly refined Huo Qi's soul, and the struggling Huo Qi soon quieted down, becoming a part of the Battle Soul Banner.

After swallowing the soul of a third-tier Celestial Martial Artist, the aura of the Battle Soul Banner surged instantly.

Chu Nan felt a surge of joy in his heart: "The Battle Soul Banner has never absorbed the soul of a third-tier Celestial Martial Artist before. With Huo Qi absorbed, the banner is truly restored to its peak state."

Hiding the joy in his heart, Chu Nan looked towards Huo Linjiang.

At this moment, Huo Linjiang was completely overwhelmed by anger, his eyes fixed on Chu Nan, filled with bright red blood vessels.

Chu Nan did not kill Huo Linjiang and instead warned him: "Return to the Huo family and tell them not to harm Huo Nianfang. I, Chu Nan, will visit sooner or later!"

Huo Linjiang slowly got up, picked up Huo Qi's corpse, and said, "Chu Nan, this matter isn't over. I will avenge my grandfather's death sooner or later!"

Chu Nan ignored Huo Linjiang, planning to wait until next time when he visited the Huo family to kill him.

At this moment, he still needed Huo Linjiang to go back and report the news.

After Huo Linjiang left, Chu Nan stowed away the Battle Soul Banner, and the Zangba Evil Body slowly faded away. He returned to his original appearance, and his aura also reverted to the Cloud Sea Realm second-tier.

Everyone watched Chu Nan with somber gazes.

Though Chu Nan was only a Cloud Sea Realm second-tier, he had already shown the demeanor of a strong fighter.

Defeating Huo Linjiang strongly, and even slaying Huo Qi, the Honored Guest Elder of the Ancestor Sect, was an achievement for Chu Nan.

Although Chu Nan had borrowed external forces, who could guarantee he wouldn't borrow such forces again?

Chu Nan then looked at Mo Yi and asked, "Senior, will killing Huo Qi bring trouble to the Ancestor Sect?"

Mo Yi waved his hand dismissively and replied, "Don't worry, the Huo family doesn't have the guts to go to war with our Ancestor Sect over the loss of a mere Huo Qi."

"Moreover, it was a life-or-death duel, so killing him is quite reasonable."

With this reassurance, Chu Nan nodded, just as he had expected. The Ancestor Sect wouldn't discard him over one Huo Qi.

"Chu Nan, from now on, you'll reside in True Martial Pavilion. Don't take the legacy within lightly."

"The thirty-six True Martial Pavilions, each holds an extraordinary legacy regarding the Ancestral Bloodline. When you completely refine the statue and receive the legacy, you'll reap remarkable benefits!" Mo Yi reminded and instructed Chu Nan.

In the Ancestor Sect, the thirty-six Emperor-level Spirit Martial True Martial Pavilions are one of the most precious treasures.

Chu Nan had just experienced the Zangba Evil Body and had the most authority on the matter.

After becoming a sequence true disciple, he had barely secured a foothold in the Imperial Capital, not to mention the protection from the Ancestor Sect ensured he no longer feared danger.

After a brief greeting, Chu Nan returned to his own thirty-first sequence True Martial Pavilion and immersed himself in cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. After absorbing the complete legacy within the statue of Zangba Evil Venerable, Chu Nan gained a clear understanding of the entire structure of the Ancestor Sect.

In the Ancestor Sect, outer sect, inner sect, true disciples, and Honored Guest Elders are part of the peripheral forces, essentially bearing the name of the Ancestor Sect without the qualification to access the core.

Whereas people like Chu Nan, the sequence true disciples, Official Elders, Grand Ancestors, and Sect Leaders truly count as the Ancestor Sect.

Aside from sequence true disciples, Elders, Grand Ancestors, and Sect Leaders are all at the ninth-tier cultivation level.

The weakest among several Grand Ancestors is at the sixth tier, and the Sect Leader is allegedly at the eighth tier!

Among the thirty-one sequence true disciples, there are also ninth-tier cultivators; the rest are above the seventh tier in the Cloud Sea Realm.

These individuals enjoy most of the Ancestor Sect's resources, particularly the Primordial Demon Beast, which only they are qualified to choose freely.

Elders, Grand Ancestors, and Sect Leaders regularly search for Primordial Demon Beasts in the Celestial Crossing Realm, gathering extremely rich collections.

Upon receiving this news, Chu Nan remained silent.

No wonder there are so few Primordial Demon Beasts in the Celestial Crossing Realm; it turns out they've all been captured by the Ancestor Sect people.

"I should quickly absorb the Ancestral Bloodline to sculpt my own Zangba Evil Body!" Chu Nan, being granted True Martial Pavilion, was eager to cultivate the legacy within the statue.

From Mo Yi, Chu Nan learned.

In fact, by refining ten percent of the True Martial Pavilion's core, one can become a sequence true disciple.

The main task of becoming a sequence true disciple is to continuously nurture the core with one's own blood essence and gradually obtain the complete legacy as per the refining degree.

Thus, the sequence true disciples of the thirty True Martial Pavilions are mostly in retreat.

Because achieving one hundred percent refinement is an enormous project, requiring at least ten years, and any slight neglect would lead to abandoning previous efforts.

A sequence true disciple completing one hundred percent refinement within half an hour, like Chu Nan, has never appeared in the Ancestor Sect throughout history.

Simultaneously, Chu Nan also obtained one extremely important piece of information.

That is, sequence true disciples are qualified to refine multiple True Martial Pavilions if they have sufficient energy.

As long as you can achieve it, refining all thirty-six True Martial Pavilions is fine since they are essentially a whole!

However, for now, Chu Nan doesn't plan to refine other True Martial Pavilions; he wants to sculpt the Zangba Evil Body and enhance his cultivation and combat power.

The Celestial Ten-Armed Ape, Three-Headed Slashing Jiao, Great Mulberry Tree King, Black-Scaled Water Fins, and Yin Swallowing Spider King, these five Primordial Demon Beasts are the core materials for forming the Zangba Evil Body.

The higher the cultivation, the better, but lower ones will work too as long as there's corresponding Ancestral Bloodline to sculpt the Zangba Evil Body.

Chu Nan memorized these names deeply and directly ended his retreat to find Mo Yi.

"Elder Mo Yi, I wish to have several Primordial Demon Beasts to cultivate the legacy obtained from the True Martial Pavilion."

"How can I acquire them from the Ancestor Sect?"

Upon seeing Mo Yi, Chu Nan straightforwardly expressed his request.

"Chu Nan sequence, you've finally come to me." Mo Yi showed no surprise at Chu Nan's arrival and was exceptionally enthusiastic.

Chu Nan was recommended by him to become a sequence true disciple; though not spoken directly, they essentially formed an alliance. Naturally, Mo Yi hoped Chu Nan would grow stronger and stronger.

Once Chu Nan becomes a ninth-tier cultivator and discards the sequence true disciple status, not only might he immediately become a Grand Ancestor but will almost certainly earn a near-Grand Ancestor rank.

This is the long-term investment of the junior Elder Mo Yi, thereby receiving immense importance.

Mo Yi waved his hand grandly and said, "You want several Primordial Demon Beasts; as a newly appointed sequence true disciple, as per the Ancestor Sect rules, you can choose two types of Primordial Demon Beasts at the Cloud Sea Realm level at will."

Chu Nan's eyes brightened, but he quickly shook his head and said, "Not enough. I need five kinds!"

"Five kinds, are you crazy?!" Mo Yi was shocked. The more diverse the Ancestral Bloodline, the greater the burden on oneself. Chu Nan already has three kinds of Ancestral Bloodline and still wants to add five, can his body endure it?

Chu Nan chuckled lightly: "I've obtained a suitable legacy from the True Martial Pavilion, with the correct method from the legacy, absorbing five types poses no problem."

In reality, with the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Sutra, Chu Nan can absorb up to ten types of Ancestral Bloodlines without the slightest issue!
