"Welcome death?" The Netherworld Old Monster laughed in extreme fury. "You ignorant brat dare to spout such nonsense? I don’t even need my Soul-Snatching Banner to kill you—a single finger is enough!"
"Netherworld Sky-Piercing Finger!"
With a single thrust of his finger, space trembled violently as a terrifying black hole formed before him. A torrent of netherworld energy erupted from it!
Gu Qingfeng watched the terrifying wave rushing toward him, a flash of anger in his eyes. How dare this old fool not use the Soul-Snatching Banner?
He was deliberately provoking him!
"Uncle Gu, dodge now!" Nangong Xue and Sword Maniac, both severely wounded and collapsed on the ground, shouted in desperation.
They too believed Gu Qingfeng possessed a protective treasure. But the stronger the treasure, the more energy it required to activate.
Given Gu Qingfeng’s Earth Yuan Realm cultivation, blocking a single strike from a Heavenly Monarch was already shocking. Even with his Four Saint Bodies, that one attack must have drained all his divine power.
Yet Gu Qingfeng ignored them, allowing the Netherworld Sky-Piercing Finger to strike him directly.
BOOM!
A deafening explosion followed as netherworld energy raged. The familiar scene repeated itself.
Gu Qingfeng remained unharmed, casually scratching his chest as if swatting a fly.
The crowd was stunned. After defending multiple times, he could still withstand a full-powered strike from a Five Tribulation Heavenly Being!
Only Chu Jingchen seemed to realize something, his face darkening with envy.
"Damn it! That treasure of his must activate automatically—it might even be a Supreme Saint Weapon! How unfair! If I had such a treasure, with my Heavenly Three cultivation, I could turn the tide myself!"
The Netherworld Old Monster’s gaze grew even greedier, clearly sharing Chu Jingchen’s thoughts. "Let’s see how many more times you can block!"
"Netherworld Sky-Piercing Finger!"
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
The old monster thrust his fingers repeatedly, creating multiple black holes. Netherworld energy surged like cannon fire, blasting toward Gu Qingfeng.
Gu Qingfeng grew impatient. He had been waiting for the old fool to use the Soul-Snatching Banner, but this arrogant bastard refused.
So he had no choice but to act.
With a casual wave of his hand, he swatted away the incoming attacks like flies.
Staring at the stunned Netherworld Old Monster, he let out a sinister chuckle. "Hehehe... A mere ant dares challenge this venerable one?"
"Primordial Sacred Body!"
"Prison-Dragon Elephant Body!"
"Indestructible Sword Body!"
His chilling voice echoed across the heavens. The moment he finished speaking, an unimaginable scene unfolded.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Three earth-shaking explosions rocked the void.
A radiant sacred light erupted from his body, blazing like the sun, bathing the land in divine brilliance!
Next, a demonic dragon and a divine elephant—each towering thousands of feet—emerged from his form, their colossal figures dominating the sky like ancient demon gods!
Finally, a gray-white sword aura, brimming with annihilation, materialized, making Gu Qingfeng resemble an unsheathed immortal sword!
Under the enhancement of his three Saint Bodies, Gu Qingfeng’s aura reached a terrifying level. With a sinister grin, he strode toward the Netherworld Old Monster, each step shaking the heavens and distorting space.
"This... this power! Impossible!" The Netherworld Old Monster screamed in disbelief, but his hands moved swiftly, summoning the Soul-Snatching Banner to counter.
But Gu Qingfeng wouldn’t give him the chance.
Since the old fool had wasted his opportunity, the banner might as well be his!
After all, the vengeful spirits inside counted as demonic entities—it didn’t matter who controlled them. So why not take it for himself?
Why endure someone else’s attacks?
"Golden Light Dash!"
WHOOSH!
In an instant, Gu Qingfeng transformed into light itself, appearing right before the Netherworld Old Monster.
His speed was so terrifying that the old monster couldn’t react. By the time he realized it, a monstrous face was inches from his own.
Face to face, even the ruthless Netherworld Old Monster paled in fear. Instinctively, he lashed out with a palm strike.
"Hehehe..." A spine-chilling laugh slithered into his ears.
Then—
"Imperial Supreme World-Shattering Fist!"
"Annoying trash, DIE!"
Gu Qingfeng’s fist erupted with a billion rays of golden light, so dazzling they outshone the sun itself!
"ARGH—!"
The Netherworld Old Monster let out his final roar, eyes bulging in terror. Unable to activate the banner in time, he poured all his divine power into a desperate defense.
But it was futile.
BOOM!
Under Gu Qingfeng’s devastating punch, all things paled in comparison.
The old monster’s protective energy shattered layer by layer.
"NO!!!"
The overwhelming force of flesh and energy consumed him, erasing his existence.
His body dissolved into a shadow within the light, twisting and distorting until it vanished entirely.
One punch later, silence reigned. The Netherworld Old Monster was no more.
The battlefield fell deathly quiet. Whether from the Sword Sect or the Netherworld Sect, everyone was struck dumb.
An Earth Yuan cultivator slaying a Heavenly Five expert—such a thing defied reason, a ghost story come to life before their eyes.
Even fools like Chu Jingchen now understood: the weakest-seeming junior uncle was, in truth, the most terrifying of them all.
There had never been any protective treasure—just an invincible body.
And his earlier claim—that he alone was enough—hadn’t been arrogance, but simple truth.
Was this the power of an Imperial Son?
Was this the monster who had once slain a young Heavenly Emperor in seconds?
At that moment, Chu Jingchen heard something shatter within him.
His invincible heart.
Shattered!
It hadn’t broken when he knelt to Gu Qingfeng in apology.
It hadn’t broken under the life-or-death pressure of the Netherworld Old Monster.
But witnessing that single punch—his invincible heart crumbled completely. Not a shred of defiance remained.
How could anyone compete with such a monster in this era?
"Elder Netherworld... is dead?!"
"That Sword Sect’s Imperial Son is a monster!"
"Activate the mountain-protecting array NOW!"
Panic engulfed the Netherworld Sect disciples. Death’s shadow loomed over them as they scrambled toward the formation’s core, desperate to activate their defenses against the horror outside.
But Gu Qingfeng wouldn’t give them the chance.
"Now you’re scared? Too late!"
"Today, this venerable one will crush your worthless bodies, refine your souls into the Soul-Snatching Banner, and sever your cycle of reincarnation! You’ll serve me for eternity!"
"Hehehe..."
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
+【Epic Battles!】 "Your Highness, they say Linxi Temple is miraculous. Won’t you make a wish?" "A wish? It should be making wishes to me." "That may be so, but since you’re already here..." "..." "Fine. Then grant this princess a consort to play with." "He must be obedient, devoted, and utterly infatuated with my body—so much so that he’d kneel and kiss my feet." "Your Highness, that’s not a consort. That’s a dog." "Then add clever, witty, heroic, ambitious yet pragmatic..." "Hmm, that’s enough for now. I’ll add more later." After tossing out these words half in jest, Princess Anle departed the temple—only to catch a fleeting glimpse of the Bodhisattva statue smiling at her. Meanwhile, Yang An, fresh out of university, was having a very bad day. Good news: He’d transmigrated into another world with a cheat granting tenfold combat power. Bad news: He’d immediately fallen into the clutches of a certain villainess. Good news: Said villainess possessed peerless beauty and royal status. Bad news: She was absolutely monstrous!!! In the frozen wilderness, Yang An knelt beneath Qin Guo’er’s feet, drenched in sweat despite the cold. Desperately clutching her porcelain-perfect foot—the very one poised to crush his throat—he could only think: How do I survive this?! Need answers NOW!

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
