The Sword Demon took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the doubts in his heart.
He no longer cared about Gu Qingfeng’s intentions—as long as he obtained the Emperor Demon Sword, that was enough.
In the face of absolute power, all schemes and tricks were useless.
He channeled the demonic energy within his body, adopting a humble posture to connect with the Emperor Demon Sword and claim its usage rights.
Hum!
The Emperor Demon Sword emitted a faint hum.
The Sword Demon’s demonic aura surged violently, his eyes turning as deep and dark as an abyss, as if devouring all light in the world.
“Though I don’t know what you’re trying to do, I still thank you for letting me obtain the Emperor Demon Sword. To express my gratitude...”
“Go to hell!”
Swish!
A flash of golden light streaked across the ground.
Gu Qingfeng’s figure abruptly appeared right in front of the Sword Demon’s face.
“I didn’t give you the Emperor Demon Sword so you could show off! Getting you to swing it once was a pain in the ass!”
The Sword Demon, staring at the grimacing face inches away and the incoming fist, had no time for words. He immediately slashed with the sword.
Clang!
A dark golden sword light flashed!
It was a brilliance so extreme that, for a moment, the world seemed devoid of all other colors—only this single strike remained.
The Emperor Demon Sword, dormant for thousands of years, finally revealed its might to the world for the first time.
When an Emperor’s weapon is unleashed, all things fall silent! Heaven and earth tremble!
Boom!
The dazzling sword light swallowed Gu Qingfeng’s body whole.
The system’s notifications rang out incessantly.
An endless surge of power flooded into Gu Qingfeng’s body, the overwhelming sense of fullness making him ecstatic.
Ding!
Congratulations, host! The Indestructible Sword Body has reached perfection!
“Hehehe...”
A maniacal, sinister laugh echoed from within the radiant sword light.
The next second, a figure resembling both a god and a demon emerged, his eerie, glowing eyes locked onto the Sword Demon.
The Sword Demon’s expression twisted in shock. “Impossible!”
The Emperor Demon Sword had been his lifelong obsession. He had strived for years to obtain it, yet now that he had it, he wasn’t invincible—he couldn’t even kill a mere cultivator who wasn’t even at the Heavenly Realm?
His belief was crumbling.
“Shut the hell up and keep swinging!”
Boom!
Gu Qingfeng let out a wild laugh and threw a punch. The Sword Demon’s face paled as he hastily raised the Emperor Demon Sword to block.
The sword erupted with demonic light, countless sharp rays shooting out like arrows.
Struck by the barrage, Gu Qingfeng roared in exhilaration, throwing punch after punch.
The heavens and earth quaked under his fists.
The Sword Demon, unable to think clearly, also went berserk, wildly brandishing the Emperor Demon Sword and unleashing sword beams that spanned thousands of miles.
The void was repeatedly split open by deep, bottomless fissures, yet Gu Qingfeng, standing directly in the path of these strikes, remained unharmed—only growing more frenzied with each hit.
The Emperor Demon Sword clashed against his body again and again, the metallic clangs ringing out nonstop.
The onlooking disciples of the Sword Sect were utterly dumbfounded.
This was the Emperor Demon Sword!
One of the mightiest weapons in existence, the exclusive weapon of the Demon Emperor, embodying his Dao. In modern terms, it was the equivalent of a nuclear bomb.
Yet Gu Qingfeng was tanking thousands of nuclear explosions without a scratch.
It got to the point where everyone suspected the Sword Demon was wielding a fake.
In truth, even the Sword Demon himself began to doubt.
His face twisted with rage—and beneath it, a trace of fear he didn’t even recognize. “Why?! Why can’t the Emperor Demon Sword harm you?! I refuse to believe it!”
“Hehehe... The Emperor Demon Sword is trash! Only you would treat it like a treasure. Even with the sword, you’re still useless!”
Though Gu Qingfeng mocked it, he secretly treasured the Emperor Demon Sword. In just this short time, his innate holy body, the Suppressing Prison Dragon Elephant Body, and even the Thunder Sound Holy Body, the Vast Cold Holy Body, and other divine bodies he had looted from various sects had all advanced significantly.
Logically, once the Indestructible Sword Body reached perfection, it should have evolved into an Immortal Body—yet it didn’t. An invisible threshold seemed to block further progress.
This meant that evolving into an Immortal Body wasn’t just about accumulating energy.
Fortunately, the Emperor Demon Sword’s energy wasn’t wasted. The system converted it all, enhancing his other physical abilities.
As a converter, the system was incredibly efficient—it could transform any demonic or monstrous power freely.
The two fought for a long time, the Sword Demon nearly exhausting his energy, yet still failing to harm Gu Qingfeng.
As Gu Qingfeng lamented how fleeting joy was, he snatched the Emperor Demon Sword away.
The Sword Demon, now empty-handed, stood frozen like a soulless husk.
His entire life's belief had been to obtain the Emperor Demon Sword, destroy the Sword Sect, and dominate the world.
But reality had dealt him a crushing blow—even with the sword, he couldn’t kill a single man.
Demons were beings of extreme obsession. Once that obsession shattered, they were as good as dead.
And that was the Sword Demon now.
Gu Qingfeng glanced at the broken Sword Demon but didn’t strike. Instead, he activated his Indestructible Demon Soul to invade the man’s mind.
He’d grown addicted to collecting subordinates, and a half-step Heavenly Sovereign like the Sword Demon was too valuable to pass up.
Normally, controlling the Sword Demon would take considerable time, but in his current state of despair, he offered no resistance.
Thus, Gu Qingfeng easily enslaved him.
Of course, he didn’t waste the other demonic followers either.
With this, Gu Qingfeng’s forces expanded once more—now boasting a half-step Heavenly Venerable, two Heavenly Lords, and hundreds of Heavenly Realm cultivators.
Gathered together, this power could sweep through the Green Wood Domain without issue.
Once everything was settled, Gu Qingfeng couldn’t be bothered with explanations. He stored his new subordinates in his palm-world and returned to the Sword Sect.
He released Dugu Wei and the others from their seal.
When they emerged, their expressions were complex, as if they had countless words but didn’t know where to start.
The situation had escalated too quickly, leaving even these seasoned veterans stunned.
Moreover, Gu Qingfeng’s power defied logic—how could he shrug off attacks from the Emperor Demon Sword, even if the wielder was only a half-step Celestial Venerable unable to unleash its full might?
Finally, Dugu Wei mustered the courage to ask, “Brother Gu... have you tamed the Emperor Demon Sword?”
This was the only explanation he could think of—that Gu Qingfeng had subdued the sword, rendering its attacks ineffective.
Though Gu Qingfeng looked nothing like someone who’d tamed it. If anything, he seemed more demonic than ever.
Gu Qingfeng shot Dugu Wei an annoyed look. “No, I haven’t tamed it. I’ve gone full demon.”
Dugu Wei: “...”
