Gu Qingfeng was unaware that the entire Sword Sect had erupted into a frenzy because of him. At this moment, he remained immersed in his cultivation.
The three thousand strands of Chaos Qi had all seeped into his body.
As the Chaos Qi merged with him, Gu Qingfeng felt countless wondrous phenomena and myriad techniques unfolding before him, as if the legendary Gate of All Mysteries had been opened.
Threads of Chaos Qi deeply integrated into his bones, blood, and even his soul, elevating his physical body and spirit to an unprecedented level.
An unimaginable surge of power erupted from within him, staining the surrounding void with a hue of chaos.
His eyes snapped open, divine light bursting forth as he rose to his feet like an ancient Divine King descending upon the world.
Yet, instead of the expected ecstasy, a look of frustration crossed his face.
"Damn it! After devouring so many bloodlines and heavenly treasures, the Chaos Body still isn’t complete?!" Gu Qingfeng cursed.
"Fck! I spent my entire fortune fusing all those physiques, and all I got was a Chaos Embryo?!"
A Chaos Embryo, as the name suggested, was the embryonic form of the Chaos Body.
This left Gu Qingfeng slightly disheartened. But then it struck him—wasn’t this proof of just how overpowered the Chaos Body truly was?
He clenched his fist, sensing the explosive growth in his strength after merging all those physiques.
If his previous power had been at the early-stage Heavenly Venerable level, now, with the Chaos Embryo taking form...
He should be unrivaled among all Heavenly Venerables!
At last, he could rightfully call himself "This Venerable One" without exaggeration.
"Exhausting most of the resources in the Green Wood Domain only barely forged the Chaos Embryo. It seems I’ll have to visit the Holy Domain at the heart of the Cangming Realm to achieve the true Chaos Body."
He had long since sent scouts to investigate the Holy Domain. As the geographical and destiny center of the realm, it was a place where countless races and factions vied for dominance.
Thus, it was a melting pot of powerhouses from across the world—precisely where Gu Qingfeng could find the bloodlines, physiques, and even demons he needed.
With this in mind, Gu Qingfeng stretched lazily, ready to leave seclusion. This had been his longest retreat, and he was itching to go out and stir up some trouble.
But just as he took half a step forward, a streak of dark-gold light flashed before him, blocking his path.
It was none other than the Emperor Demon Sword.
"What the hell do you want?" Gu Qingfeng blinked in confusion.
Whoosh!
A dark-gold radiance shot from the sword and merged into his body.
Gu Qingfeng was baffled—until he sensed the intimate, blood-bound connection forming between them.
Realization dawned, followed by fury.
"You little piece of—! You sneaky trash! Who the hell told you to acknowledge me as your master?!"
The Emperor Demon Sword remained unfazed, even nuzzling closer to him affectionately.
In the past, endless waves of Emperor Demon Sword Qi would have erupted, but now there was nothing—because the sword had submitted, ceasing all resistance.
"Argh! You shameless thing! A supreme Emperor Weapon like you, always so aloof, and now you’re licking my boots just because I forged the Chaos Embryo?!"
Furious, Gu Qingfeng grabbed the sword and hurled it away with all his might.
Yet, the sword barely flew ten meters before curving mid-air and darting back to him, rubbing against him like an affectionate puppy.
"Piss off!"
He threw it again and again, but it was useless. In his rage, he even started pounding on the sword—but as an Emperor Weapon, it remained unscathed.
Unable to break it or get rid of it, his sanity teetered on the edge.
"Look, I liked you better when you were cold and distant. Can you please stop being a simp?"
The Emperor Demon Sword ignored him, continuing to nuzzle him.
"Fine! You’re really going all out with this simping, huh?" Gu Qingfeng raised the sword and slashed at his own arm.
"Go all out. Let me feel your power," he commanded.
But the strike landed without adding a single attribute.
Defeated, Gu Qingfeng slumped to the ground. "It’s over. Everything’s ruined."
Divine weapons possessed sentience, and the more powerful they were, the more autonomy they had—especially an Emperor Weapon.
In its protective instinct, the Emperor Demon Sword held back its full force, afraid of harming its master.
Worse yet, Gu Qingfeng could no longer use demons to attack himself with the sword.
Before, the sword wouldn’t let anyone touch it without a master. Now that it had one? Forget about others wielding it.
After all, a simp’s greatest virtue was loyalty.
So now, Gu Qingfeng felt a profound loss—as if he’d lost an Emperor Weapon entirely.
After wallowing in despair, he picked up the sword and demanded, "What good are you, huh? I fight with my fists, not a sword."
The moment those words left his mouth, the Emperor Demon Sword trembled as if stung, emitting a resonant hum.
Then, an overwhelming imperial aura erupted from it.
A blinding dark-gold sword light shot forth—
BOOM!
The light pierced straight through the Falling Star Peak, tearing a colossal rift in the sky before the mountain collapsed in a thunderous roar.
Gu Qingfeng gaped at the destruction, muttering, "This simp’s got no professionalism—throwing a tantrum already?"
But the next instant, he sensed an inexplicable message from the sword.
Understanding dawned in his eyes.
The Emperor Demon Sword wasn’t throwing a fit—it was helping him break through to the Heavenly Human realm!
As if guided by divine inspiration, he raised the sword and thrust it skyward.
Imperial might enveloped the world, as if a Heavenly Emperor had descended.
A wild, defiant glint flashed in Gu Qingfeng’s eyes as he glared at the heavens and roared:
"I offer this sword to the heavens—now the heavens shall acknowledge me!"
His voice boomed like thunder, shaking the earth.
BOOM—!
The world quaked violently.
Endless Dao rhythms cascaded from the skies, bathing Gu Qingfeng in divine radiance as he stood like an immortal deity.
Thus, he ascended to the Heavenly Human realm.
"Keh keh keh... Never thought you’d be this useful. Not bad!" Gu Qingfeng praised the sword.
The Emperor Demon Sword practically vibrated with joy, like a simp showered with praise after buying his crush a gift.
Due to his unorthodox origins, Gu Qingfeng had never been acknowledged by the Heavenly Dao—no "green card" for him.
But the Emperor Demon Sword was like a VIP in this world. With its endorsement, the deal was sealed.
From this moment on, Gu Qingfeng’s path of cultivation would face no further obstacles—only smooth sailing ahead.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
