"Have you all eaten your fill?" Gu Qingfeng said indifferently.
The five guardians of the trial had devoured all the challengers like whales swallowing prey.
Finally, five pairs of predatory eyes locked onto Gu Qingfeng.
"Our strength has been drained for years maintaining the Taiyi Secret Realm. Fortunately, this feast has restored us."
"In other words, kid, that was your only chance, and you wasted it!" Tu Fang sneered.
The others also smirked.
The Fire Fiend Spirit spoke bluntly, "Kid, you seemed pretty arrogant earlier. Now that we’re free and no longer suppressed by the secret realm, why don’t you show us that arrogance again?"
"Keh keh keh... This Emperor absolutely adores your unruly expressions right now. It makes things interesting. Keep it up, won’t you?" Gu Qingfeng laughed wildly.
"Daring to laugh when death is at your doorstep? I’ll take one of his legs!" the Fire Fiend Spirit said coldly.
"This old man wants his head!"
"I’ll take his arms!"
"Then I’ll claim his torso!"
"I demand a fair duel with him!"
Huh??!!
Something strange seemed to have slipped in.
The four fiendish spirits turned their heads in unison, staring at Mu Yi, who was brimming with fighting spirit.
Mu Yi declared, "I made a promise to him earlier—once my strength was restored, we would fight honorably!"
"Fight my ass! I don’t have time to wait around. I’m eating him now!" the Fire Fiend Spirit snarled.
Mu Yi leaped forward, positioning himself between the fiends and Gu Qingfeng, looking earnestly at his companions.
"A promise is a promise. I said I’d fight him fairly, and that’s what I’ll do!"
"Are you serious?" Tu Fang asked gravely.
The other fiends also grew solemn. They had been humiliated by Gu Qingfeng earlier and were itching for revenge, unwilling to wait even a second longer.
But the five of them were as close as brothers, and none would disregard another’s wishes.
Sensing Mu Yi’s resolve, they had no choice but to respect his decision.
Mu Yi nodded firmly. "Yes. Until our duel is settled, no one interferes—even if I’m defeated, even if I die. Otherwise..."
"Shut the hell up!"
A thunderous slap came flying.
Bam!
Mu Yi was sent sprawling.
"Enough of this nonsense! You five trash, come at me together!" Gu Qingfeng taunted.
The fiends glanced at the dazed Mu Yi, momentarily stunned.
Mu Yi, lying on the ground, looked utterly bewildered and betrayed, as if to say, "You actually turned on me?"
"Insolent brat!"
"You dare ambush us!"
"Kill him together!"
The enraged fiends charged at Gu Qingfeng in a frenzy.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Five terrifying surges of innate Five Elements fiendish energy erupted, carrying radiant immortal light and destructive power, crashing toward Gu Qingfeng.
The sheer force of the attack reached the level of a True Immortal.
As it turned out, the fully restored Five Elements Fiend Spirits were all True Immortal-level beings!
This also highlighted the profound foundation of the Taiyi True Immortal, who had managed to capture five True Immortal-level fiends.
The Eternal Night Lamp Technique undoubtedly played a crucial role, refining the Taiyi True Immortal’s mana to an extraordinary degree and deepening his reserves.
Facing the onslaught of innate Five Elements fiendish energy, Gu Qingfeng merely smiled, standing his ground as the five-colored radiance swallowed him whole.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Five system notifications chimed.

"Keh keh keh... What pitifully weak attacks. Is this all you five trash have got?" Gu Qingfeng’s derisive laughter echoed from within the storm of energy.
"What?!"
"How dare you mock us!"
The innate Five Elements Fiend Spirits flew into a rage, unleashing their ultimate techniques.
The innate Five Elements fiendish energy coalesced into five colossal divine dragons, each ten thousand feet long.
The dragons shimmered in different hues—gold, wood, water, fire, and earth—roaring as they engulfed Gu Qingfeng.
Boom—!
The devastating strike shook the heavens, distorting the void as if all existence would be annihilated by the overwhelming fiendish energy.
"Now we’re talking!" Gu Qingfeng grinned savagely, then abruptly opened his mouth, revealing rows of gleaming white teeth.
A terrifying black hole formed within, sucking in the five divine dragons like a whale inhaling water.
At this moment, Gu Qingfeng resembled a legendary demonic overlord, one who feasted on dragons.
He chose not to resist the attack head-on but instead swallowed it whole, wondering if internal damage would yield greater rewards.
What could he say? He was just being economical—making the most of every bit of "love" his family sent his way, never wasting a drop.
The innate Five Elements Fiend Spirits sneered at Gu Qingfeng’s audacity to consume their violent energy.
"A mere mortal dares to contain innate Five Elements fiendish energy like us? He’s got a death wish."
Yet, the next moment, something horrifying unfolded.
The five divine dragons visibly shrank before being sucked into the black hole.
And then... nothing.
Gu Qingfeng smacked his lips. "Got any more? That wasn’t enough."
The innate Five Elements Fiend Spirits: "..."
"How is this possible?! A mere mortal shouldn’t be able to withstand innate Five Elements fiendish energy!"
"Have we been sealed for so long that our skills have dulled?"
The fiends exchanged bewildered glances.
"Useless trash. If you won’t attack, this Emperor will eat you first!"
Growing impatient, Gu Qingfeng struck. Ever since he realized that devouring his "family" granted him their full power, he’d grown fond of this straightforward method.
Compared to enduring beatings, merging into one seemed far more harmonious and loving.
He stepped forward through the air, charging straight into the midst of the fiends.
The innate Five Elements Fiend Spirits erupted in fury, bombarding him with relentless attacks that shattered the heavens and split the void.
Yet, at the center of the storm, Gu Qingfeng stood unharmed, as if indestructible.
Clang!
A golden sword forged from innate Metal Fiend Energy slashed at him, sparks flying as it clashed against his body—yet not a single hair was harmed.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
invincible power, Gu Changge transmigrates into a fantasy world, bound to a sign-in system that grants him cultivation rewards and various peerless treasures daily. While others struggle desperately to break through their cultivation realms, he has long since reached the pinnacle of the Great Dao, becoming a reclusive Emperor whose true strength even he himself cannot fathom. Originally planning to lie low and retire peacefully on Purple Bamboo Peak, the system suddenly issues a new task — take on disciples. With no other choice, Gu Changge casually picks up a few disciples: The eldest disciple, born with a War God Constitution, is thrown a copy of "War God Stratagems" by him, and ends up conquering the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, becoming a peerless War God who sweeps across the cosmos. The second disciple, possessing a Chaos Sword Body, can break all techniques with a single sword, his swordsmanship unmatched throughout history. He points his sword at the heavens: "My master said, the sword and the man stand together. If the sword perishes... my master will give me another one." The third disciple, a reborn Empress who returns to her throne, her elegance and grace overshadowing all beings. And without anyone noticing, his own sect, the Qingxuan Sect, has become the number one sect on the continent. Looking at these unbelievably formidable disciples, Gu Changge, holding the "Primordial Purple Qi" he just signed in for, falls into deep thought: — Wasn't this supposed to be a peaceful retirement? How did I become the ultimate master?!
