Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze toward him and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of news is it that you're taking so seriously?"
The man organized his thoughts before speaking gravely, "My junior brother has received information that the senior who broke the Heavenly Demon Formation is not a Sixth-Rank Array Master, but at least a Seventh-Rank!"
This statement was like dropping a heavy bomb, a thunderclap echoing in everyone's minds.
Several men were left gaping in astonishment.
"Seventh-Rank..."
"At least a Seventh-Rank..."
"That means this senior could very well be an Eighth-Rank Array Master?"
"Yes, that's possible!"
The man nodded emphatically.
"Sss!"
Everyone gasped, their breaths catching.
"An Eighth-Rank Array Master!"
"My heavens!"
"This news is absolutely explosive! I must report this back to my sect as quickly as possible."
"Indeed, I must do the same. The emergence of an Eighth-Rank Array Master is a piece of news that must be reported immediately!"
In an instant, all sorts of messages spread like wildfire from the small Tianlun City.
"What? An Eighth-Rank Array Master?"
In a solemn great hall, several elders looked at the secret report in their hands, their hands trembling so much that they almost couldn't hold it steady.
"Sss, an Eighth-Rank Array Master. Go, summon the sect leader at once to go and establish a good relationship!"
In another major power, several Grand Elders, upon receiving this news, directly emerged from their closed-door cultivation to issue orders.
Similar scenes were unfolding elsewhere in the Heavenly Array Immortal Continent...
From this moment on, people from all directions of the Heavenly Array Immortal Continent, upon receiving the news, began to flock to the small Tianlun City.
Some wanted to establish good relations.
Others sought opportunities.
Some wished to seek apprenticeship.
Even those lower-ranked Array Masters, merely desiring to catch a glimpse of the true appearance of this Eighth-Rank Array Master, rushed over with great eagerness.
Tianlun City.
The winds were rising, the clouds were churning!
In the courtyard.
Yi Feng looked up at the sky.
His face was full of bitterness.
Being regarded as a Sixth-Rank Array Master was tolerable.
What truly gnawed at his mind was that idiot who kept changing the currency of the Immortal World.
What kind of moron would repeatedly alter the currency of such a vast world?
It had left him unable to afford even a meal.
Although his current strength was quite impressive, what was infuriating was that he still couldn't achieve "bigu" (immortality without eating).
He wasn't sure if it was a deliberate oversight by the system or just a mistake, but the fact remained.
So now, he had to think about his future food expenses.
After all, he didn't want to end up like he did in Pingjiang City, barely scraping by on coarse grains and vegetables, so poor that he couldn't even relieve himself properly and had to use a stick to help.
"F*** your whole family."
He cursed under his breath and then opened his storage ring, summoning Man Man.
Mounting Man Man, Yi Feng sneaked out of the courtyard, and the duo made their way toward the mountains outside Tianlun City.
After all, the shopkeeper had mentioned that hunting monsters in the mountains and gathering some materials could earn him some Immortal Crystals.
Not long after, Yi Feng and Man Man arrived in the mountains.
Utilizing his Golden Immortal cultivation, after half a day of diligent hunting, he finally filled his storage pouch with the spoils.
As noon approached, Yi Feng decided to call it a day.
A man relies on food, and iron relies on steel; one can't go without a meal.
As a standard food enthusiast, Yi Feng couldn't miss the time for lunch.
Especially since it was his favorite wild game.
He quickly gathered some dry firewood and set up a bonfire on a flat ground.
Then, he took out his small knife and sliced off a hind leg from a demon pig, seasoning it before grilling.
In no time, the pork leg began to sizzle with oil, and a delicious aroma wafted around.
Yi Feng stared at the pork leg, his mouth curling into a smile.
His grilling skills were indeed commendable, and it seemed he was in for a treat today.
A few mouthfuls of wine to go with it would be perfect.
Just as Yi Feng was happily imagining this and turning the pork leg to ensure even cooking, a ripple of energy came from the side.
A young girl then landed on a nearby tree trunk, her eyes wide with curiosity as she watched Yi Feng.
"Brother, what are you doing? It smells so good!"
Yi Feng glanced up from his busy task and saw that it was a great beauty who had arrived.
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
