A Rewarding Experience

Bang!

Gu Qingfeng tossed Yuan Heng’s lifeless husk at the feet of the Tai Xuan Immortal Sect disciples like discarded trash.

The disciples recoiled in terror, their faces pale with horror.

This was a true immortal!

Yet he had been utterly defenseless, subdued in a single move, his essence drained until nothing remained!

Just who was this young man?!

Ignoring their shock, Gu Qingfeng swept his sharp gaze over the crowd.

Anyone who met his eyes trembled, their hearts quaking, heads bowing in fear.

“Do any of you understand human speech?”

Thud!

One disciple collapsed to his knees, kowtowing frantically. “M-my lord, spare me! It was all Yuan Heng’s fault—”

“Fck this!”

“Die! Devour Heaven and Earth!”

Enraged, Gu Qingfeng sucked the pleading man dry on the spot.

The entire crowd froze, deathly silent.

Gu Qingfeng was furious. All he wanted was to loot their treasury—why were these idiots so obsessed with finding the culprit and evidence? Were they brain-dead?!

“How many times do I have to say it?! I don’t give a damn who the killer is or what proof you have—I want money! Money, money, MONEY!”

“Screw it. Wasting my breath on you morons was a mistake. Drown in despair! Heart-Devouring Demon Seed!”

Losing patience, Gu Qingfeng unleashed the Dao of Heart Demons. Countless demonic shadows, like ghastly specters, surged from his body, blotting out the sky in an instant.

“Save us!”

“A demon! He’s a demon!”

The Tai Xuan disciples scattered in panic, but Gu Qingfeng’s boundless mana—accumulated over trillions of years—erupted like a tsunami, sealing the entire sect within an impenetrable barrier.

Such was the arrogance of infinite power.

Trapped with no escape, the disciples were swarmed by the heart demons, which slithered into their bodies through every orifice—eyes, ears, pores, even unmentionable crevices.

Moments later, the sect’s higher-ups were all enslaved, their wills broken.

“Go. Bring me the entire Tai Xuan treasury.”

“Yes, Master!”

They obeyed without hesitation, swiftly emptying the vaults.

Gu Qingfeng’s mood finally improved. “Goddammit, should’ve just mind-controlled them from the start,” he grumbled.

Soon, the enslaved disciples returned with mountains of immortal treasures. The sight soothed Gu Qingfeng’s irritation, and he stashed everything away before dismissing them.

He retreated to his quarters to inspect his plunder.

Midstream Star River, Yu Hua Immortal Dynasty.

Inside a palace fit for celestials, a handsome man clad in ornate serpent robes sat atop a grand throne, his face dark with fury. The air was thick with tension, like the calm before an eruption.

“You Ying is dead. The Tai Xuan Immortal Sect has gone silent. Would someone care to explain how this happened? Did the entire sect just drop dead?!”

The kneeling subordinates trembled. One spoke up, “Your Highness, please calm yourself. We will investigate at once.”

“Not just investigate—send a force! If one true immortal wasn’t enough, send five—no, ten! And I’ll summon an Earth Immortal from Mount Wu You. This ends with a single strike!” the Second Prince roared.

“Your Highness, isn’t this excessive? Including Old Man Yan, there was only one true immortal involved. Why call an Earth Immortal? The cost would be—”

“You fool!” the Second Prince snapped. “You Ying’s Soul Parasite technique could ambush even the strongest true immortals. You think that useless Old Man Yan could stop him? I suspect that btch’s master intervened!”

“What?! Fairy Miaohua made a move?!”

“It must be her. Any recent sightings?” the Second Prince demanded.

An intelligence officer hastily replied, “A woman resembling Fairy Miaohua was spotted near the Border Pass recently. She likely descended to the lower realms.”

“WHAT?!” The Second Prince kicked the man to the ground. “Why wasn’t I informed?!”

“F-forgive me, Your Highness! Our spies in Miaohua Palace confirmed she never left, and the sighting was unverified, so we—”

Bam!

The prince delivered several more furious kicks. “Useless! All of you! Fairy Miaohua is an Earth Immortal! If she left an illusionary double behind, none of you would know! Had I known sooner, You Ying wouldn’t have died for nothing!”

As expected, it was that bitch Fairy Miaohua who made the move. This won’t do. With her around, relying on just one Earth Immortal isn’t enough. Go, contact that bald monk Fa Xu from the Prajna Zen Sect and have him join the fight."

"Fa Xu!?" The subordinate paled in shock. "That guy is infamous for being ruthless—he’d even scrape the gold off a Buddha statue if he could. Are you sure about involving him...?"

"If you useless lot had been more competent, would I need to let that bald bastard fleece me? Now hurry up and go!"

"Yes, yes, Your Highness! This subordinate will arrange it immediately!"

......

Meanwhile, in the Tai Xuan Immortal Sect.

Gu Qingfeng happily stored the sorted treasures into his palm realm.

This haul was quite substantial.

Though the Tai Xuan Immortal Sect was only a minor faction, it was still a well-established sect with a history spanning hundreds of millions of years. While high-grade treasures were scarce, lower-tier items like inferior immortal jades, elixirs, and spirit fruits that boosted cultivation were abundant.

Gu Qingfeng had been lamenting the near-extinction of the Heavenly Demons, but this was like a pillow delivered just as he was about to doze off.

After leaving the Heavenly Demon Realm, he could rely on these immortal pills and elixirs to replenish his energy. It wouldn’t be as efficient as devouring others directly, but something was better than nothing.

Aside from these lower-tier treasures, there was also a True Immortal-grade weapon—

The Primordial Five Evils Gourd!

It contained the innate Five Elements Evils: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.

When combined, these five innate evils cycled endlessly, unstoppable even by True Immortals!

Gu Qingfeng quite liked this gourd. Though its power couldn’t match his fists, the novelty of using a treasure to attack was something he’d never experienced before.

Like a child with a new toy, he eagerly activated the Primordial Five Evils Gourd.

A shrill, owl-like shriek erupted from the gourd as a surge of the innate Five Elements Evils gushed out from its mouth.

The energy shimmered like divine metal, radiant and dazzling, forming a swirling mist of five-colored brilliance—beautiful yet brimming with lethal intent.

Gu Qingfeng gently guided a wisp of the innate Five Elements Evils toward a distant ten-thousand-foot immortal mountain.

What happened next was astonishing.

That wisp of mist, as light as smoke, sliced through the mountain like a blade.

For a moment, it was as if a five-colored galaxy had descended, dimming the heavens and shaking the earth, as though the world itself could barely withstand such destructive power.

BOOM—!

The immortal mountain instantly turned to dust.

Gu Qingfeng blinked in surprise. He hadn’t expected a mere wisp of the innate Five Elements Evils to be so devastating. If he unleashed it at full power, even an Earth Immortal would struggle to withstand it.

"Truly, with trillions of years’ worth of cultivation backing it, even the most ordinary things can achieve miracles. This True Immortal-grade weapon, fueled by my power, is no weaker than an Earth Immortal-grade treasure."
