My Fairy Growth System-Chapter 441 - 440: Night Raid on Yin Corpse Sect by the Masses
The night was dark as ink, with the mountain gate of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect eerily looming under the dim moonlight.
The mountain gate of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect, known as Yin Corpse Mountain, was in fact a massive burial mound sparsely vegetated, from which the occasional caw of a crow would sound.
However, in the quiet of the night, an atmosphere of stern slaughter spread stealthily. The elite troops of the Sect of Commoners, led by the Qing Holy Maiden, approached Yin Corpse Mountain silently on the Fourth Stage Flying Boat "Congregation Vessel," provided by the Cangsheng Venerable.
For this operation, the Sect of Commoners assembled eight Great Law Kings, seventy-two Nascent Soul commanders, and three hundred Golden Core and Foundation Establishment Deacons. They had gambled the vast majority of the Sect’s high-end combat power, intending to strike the Yin Corpse Demon Sect before the Extreme Path Demon Sect could act.
The Cangsheng Venerable himself was tasked with intercepting any potential aid from the Divine Transformation Venerables of the Extreme Path Demon Sect.
Yu Qingtan’s avatar, the Qing Holy Maiden, wore a red dress, her long hair fluttering in the wind. Though her appearance was slightly less striking than her original self, she was still the image of a fairy.
Her eyes were firm and deep, radiating an intelligent brilliance as if able to see through all darkness.
The Sect Protection Array of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect, named the Myriads of Corpses Great Array, was merely a Fourth Stage Superior Formation. Yet, with the blessings of countless yin corpses accumulated throughout the development of the sect, its power was no weaker than a typical Fifth Stage formation.
However, the Qing Holy Maiden was a Fourth Stage Array Master now studying the legacy of Fifth Stage formations. With her subtle investigation lasting merely the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, she pinpointed over a dozen weak spots in the array.
As a Divine Transformation Venerable, the Qing Holy Maiden was not suited to take direct action against beings of lower realms. Hence, over a dozen stealthy Law Kings and commanders, under her direction, infiltrated these weak spots of the formation.
Included among them was Shen Wanning, who had become a commander. For this operation, both Shen Wanning and Yu Qingtan had employed the Hongluan Secret Omen to divine the outcome, which was highly auspicious.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom~" With more than a dozen loud blasts shattering the silence of Yin Corpse Mountain, the partially activated Sect Protection Array’s light membrane instantly collapsed.
"Move out!" the Qing Holy Maiden quietly commanded, her soft voice carrying an indisputable firmness.
Following her order, the "Congregation Vessel" deactivated its concealment array, and hundreds of Cultivators leaped down, flying towards Yin Corpse Mountain.
"Kill~" Led by the Eight Great Law Kings, the members of the Sect of Commoners surged into Yin Corpse Mountain, which instantly became enveloped in explosions and spiritual light.
The disciples of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect were caught completely off guard by this sudden assault. They awoke in shock from meditation or sleep, scrambling to defend themselves in a panic.
"Who is it? Who dares to attack my Yin Corpse Sect?" The new Sect Master of the Yin Corpse Sect, True Lord Yi Qun Zhu Yiqun, flew into the air and shouted loudly.
"The Yin Corpse Demon Sect commits all manner of evil against the natural order. Today, the Sect of Commoners will rid the people of your menace and exterminate your lineage! Those who surrender will be spared, those who resist will be shown no mercy!" The Great Filial Piety Law King and the Great Fraternity Law King confronted True Lord Yi Qun, shouting back at him.
"Very well~ So it’s you, the Sect of Commoners! We hadn’t even come looking for trouble with you, yet you dare make the first move! If you wish to exterminate our lineage, let’s see if you have what it takes. Elders, follow me into battle!"
Upon learning it was the Sect of Commoners, True Lord Yi Qun grew immensely agitated. He was well aware that the Sect Hierarch of the Sect of Commoners was a Divine Transformation Mid Stage Cultivator. Normally, a Venerable of the Divinity Transformation wouldn’t personally take action against a Nascent Soul-level force, but the number of Nascent Soul and Golden Core Cultivators arriving was even more than his own Yin Corpse Sect.
However, with the Sect Protection Array directly breached, there was nothing left to do but fight, hoping that the support from the Extreme Path Demon Sect would arrive soon.
Soon, Nascent Soul, Golden Core, and Foundation Establishment cultivators each established their own battle rings in the air above Yin Corpse Mountain, from highest to lowest positions.
In the night, the explosions intertwined with spiritual light to create a magnificent scene. The mountain gate of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect flickered in the darkness like stars being lit.
The cultivators of the Sect of Commoners descended like tigers, their attacks fierce and each strike carrying the power of destruction. Despite the chaos, the disciples of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect also displayed their tenacious fighting spirit, countering with various dark and sinister spells.
As cultivators of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect specialized in refining corpse puppets, they were often able to fight multiple opponents simultaneously. However, to ensure victory in this battle, Qing Holy Maiden took out many cultivation resources from her numerous spoils of war, including talismans, spiritual artifacts, and magical treasures she had crafted herself.

Hence, each cultivator of the Sect of Commoners was equipped with a stack of attack talismans, a stack of defense talismans, one top-tier offensive equipment, and one top-tier defensive equipment, waging a war of riches.
Of course, all these items were considered lent to them and needed to be repaid after the war with Merit Points or spoils of war, although they were only charged at cost price.
Additionally, since the Yin Corpse Demon Sect was unprepared, the battlefield quickly turned into a one-sided affair.
In one corner of the battlefield, Shen Wanning, who possessed the Fortune Cultivation Body, was clad in a black dress and wielded her lifebound artifact, the Flame Flow Gold Shadow Sword, fighting alone against three Nascent Soul early-stage elders of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect.

She was surrounded by more than a dozen corpse puppets, but during the magical battle, half of the corpse puppets lost control and even attacked their own masters, while the other half malfunctioned at critical moments—either missing their attacks or failing to unleash them due to issues with their spiritual power circuits.
It wasn’t long before Shen Wanning dealt with the corpse puppets besieging her and then directed the Flame Flow Gold Shadow Sword at a Yin Corpse Sect elder who was being attacked by two backfiring corpse puppets.
Most of the Yin Corpse Sect cultivators’ abilities were tied to their corpse puppets. Without them, they were like tigers without teeth. This Yin Corpse Sect elder, in his panic, was cleanly bisected by Shen Wanning.
His Nascent Soul quickly fled, rushing toward the distance, seeking escape. However, Shen Wanning wasn’t about to give him that opportunity. In a flash, she appeared in front of the Nascent Soul and pierced it with her sword.
Ordinarily, Shen Wanning’s speed wouldn’t match the Nascent Soul’s escape velocity, but she had a Fourth Stage Godspeed Talisman given to her by Yu Qingtan.
The other two Nascent Soul elders, entangled by the backfiring corpse puppets, saw their fellow disciple fall so easily and were filled with terror, but then Shen Wanning’s attack was already coming at them.
"I’ll fight you to the death!" One of the Nascent Soul elders received a blow from a backfiring corpse puppet and, using an escape technique, arrived beside Shen Wanning. Emitting violent spiritual power fluctuations, he then exploded with a loud "bang," ending his own life.
Regrettably for him, Shen Wanning had more than one Godspeed Talisman, and her dress was a protective Daoist instrument crafted by Yu Qingtan. After gaining some distance, the elder’s self-destruction did not affect her in the slightest.
The other Nascent Soul elder chose to flee away from Yin Corpse Mountain at the moment of the explosion.
"Thinking of running? Not so easy," Shen Wanning sneered, activating another Godspeed Talisman and giving chase.
Seeing the situation growing desperate, True Lord Yi Qun, the sect master of the Yin Corpse Demon Sect, went all out in urging the ancestral Daoist artifact of the sect, the Yin Corpse Bell.
Accompanied by intense waves of energy emanating from deep within Yin Corpse Mountain, a massive black column of light shot into the sky. A giant figure, three hundred zhang tall, emerged, enveloping the entire battlefield with the might of the Divine Transformation Stage.
"Corpse Demon Great Honorable, protect our Yin Corpse Sect!" True Lord Yi Qun cried out loudly.
