The Fallen Cloud Horizon

Jiang Che didn't know many girls in the Immortal Realm.

Aside from the Heavenly Fox Immortal Venerable Bai Susu and Immortal Lord Yunya before him, he had only ever been physically intimate with Bai Tianwu of the Qingqiu Fox Clan. However, Bai Tianwu was merely a First Tribulation Immortal.

Without seeking help from the system, the moment he engaged in an encounter at the immortal level, his inner life essence would be instantly drained dry. This was an unavoidable process.

The reason he hadn't asked the system for help before was... the exact moment of having his life essence drained actually felt incredibly good!

But now, constantly dying and coming back to life wasn't exactly a sustainable lifestyle!

[Beep. The host can rent or purchase an Immortal Dao Origin.]

The system offered a friendly prompt.

"Holy crap, I can even buy an Immortal Dao Origin?" Jiang Che's eyes widened, but he quickly understood. If he could rent or buy something as profound as a Great Dao Origin, an Immortal Dao Origin was a piece of cake.

In truth, Jiang Che rarely browsed the system shop, so naturally, he didn't know what exactly was sold there. After all, since the system's last update, it had absolutely everything. Just the various treasures scavenged from across the myriad heavens and realms numbered in the hundreds of millions.

Young Master Jiang rarely had enough time in his day-to-day life. He was always either picking up girls or on his way to pick up girls. Where would he find the time to study the contents of the system shop?

If he really needed something, he would just ask the system to do a targeted search. Whatever he needed, it would be there.

"How much is an Immortal Dao Origin? If I buy it, will I instantly possess the strength of an immortal?"

To be honest, Jiang Che couldn't be bothered to cultivate step by step anymore. The current cultivation realms of the Immortal Dao had completely lost their meaning to him.

[No, the Immortal Dao Origin only elevates the host's life level to the corresponding tier. Others will be able to sense your immortal realm, but you will not be able to mobilize its power. It can be used for showing off.]

So it's just for show, huh?

[First Tribulation Immortal Dao Origin: 1 billion points]

[Second Tribulation Immortal Dao Origin: 2 billion points]

...

[Immortal Emperor Origin: 6 billion points]

Bought!

It was something he would need long-term anyway, so wouldn't it be better to just buy one outright?

Furthermore, with Jiang Che's current methods... did it really matter if he was a true Immortal Emperor?

Who would dare to doubt him?

I'll just slap an item card right in your face; dare you say I'm not an Immortal Emperor?

Ten thousand years of bitter cultivation couldn't compare to a single stat boost from the system!

[Beep! The host has successfully spent 6 billion points to purchase the Immortal Emperor Origin. The host has successfully broken the price ceiling for a single item purchase!]

In almost an instant, the Immortal Emperor Origin entered Jiang Che's body.

It automatically fused with Jiang Che's immortal body and cultivation base.

Jiang Che's life level instantly experienced a terrifying leap, skyrocketing from a Nirvana stage cultivator straight to a Sixth Tribulation Immortal Emperor.

Of course... his status as an Immortal Emperor was fake. It was merely the Immortal Dao Origin exuding the aura of an Immortal Emperor.

"Jiang... Young Master Jiang, you!!!"

Yunya, who was currently disarming her clothes, instantly widened her eyes. She looked at Jiang Che with a mixture of fear and shock. Why was Jiang Che suddenly exuding such a terrifying immortal deterrence?

Although this aura was very faint, seemingly just a trace that Jiang Che had intentionally leaked... she still accurately detected it.

That overwhelming suppression of the Immortal Dao was almost as strong as Senior Sister Tian Chan's. But Senior Sister Tian Chan was a Supreme Immortal Venerable who had fused with the Righteous Dao Origin, and her true strength was practically equal to an Immortal Emperor.

Could it be that Jiang Che's true cultivation was actually at the Immortal Emperor realm?

But how could that be possible?

"Heh heh... Fairy Yunya, your young master just bought a cheat. I promise I definitely won't have my life essence drained dry anymore."

Jiang Che revealed a wicked, sinister smirk.

......

The desolate borders of the Demon Realm.

Countless evil spirits were still glaring like tigers watching their prey. Many evil spirit immortals from the Evil Spirit Plane had surrounded the borderlands.

Meanwhile, on the side of the Nine Heavens borderlands, tens of thousands of domains along the front line... were all plunged into a bitter struggle!

On this battlefield, the absolute minimum requirement for all participants was the Great Emperor realm... one could hardly even spot a Quasi-Emperor.

Of course, the Evil Spirit Plane was completely different. Not only did they have countless Great Emperor-level evil spirits, but the rest of their low-tier evil spirits were endless like locusts. There was even a Great Emperor-level powerhouse on the Nine Heavens side who had been overwhelmed and killed by sheer numbers of low-tier evil spirits.

"Do not panic, everyone. I have already reached an agreement with Young Master Jiang. A large batch of lifespan-extending immortal pills will be delivered very soon."

Tian Chan stood before the immortals, speaking with a calm expression. In front of her stood no less than several hundred immortals and over a hundred thousand Great Emperors.

Tian Chan looked at these cultivators, knowing full well... that they had all come for profit. If she couldn't produce lifespan-extending pills as a reward... seventy to eighty percent of this massive evil-slaying army would leave in minutes.

"Palace Master Tian! This poor Daoist truly doesn't have much lifespan left... I might pass away in meditation in three days at most. Could you please give me some immortal pills to extend my lifespan a little?"

"That's right, Palace Master. We crossed myriad domains to get here, suffering the exhaustion of the journey... just to live a few more days. Without lifespan... even if we go to the battlefield to slaughter enemies, it's all in vain."

Some of the elderly Great Emperors began to complain.

They were cultivators who had just joined the Heavenly Dao Evil-Slaying Decree. Hearing that they could obtain lifespan-extending pills just by killing enemies and earning merits on the battlefield, which could easily extend their lives by hundreds of years, they were incredibly tempted.

Having reached this point, let alone extending their lifespan by hundreds of years, even if it was just a few years... they didn't want to give up.

Tian Chan fell into an awkward predicament. Her negotiations with Jiang Che a few days ago... had failed utterly!

The other party didn't want to yield a single bit of profit, and even her Junior Sister Yunya had been dragged into it, her current situation unknown.

She didn't have a single lifespan-extending pill in her hands right now. Where was she supposed to get their military pay?

But right at this moment, a familiar aura wafted over.

"Lord Palace Master, Yunya is late..."

A breathtakingly beautiful woman with long hair, clad in a green robe, appeared at the front of the battlefield, stepping on an immortal sword.

Immortal Lord Yunya!

The moment Tian Chan saw Yunya, she froze entirely. She knew very well that Junior Sister Yunya had gone to find Young Master Jiang, and she probably suffered quite a bit at his hands during these past few days, right?

Although there was a difference between immortals and mortals, and Jiang Che surely couldn't do much to Junior Sister Yunya, heaven knows what kind of torturous methods that Jiang Che might have?

She wanted to say that Junior Sister Yunya had worked hard, but on second thought... Yunya didn't know that she had also been in the Realm-Breaking Immortal Boat back then.

"Ahem, Junior Sister, a true large-scale immortal war hasn't broken out on the front lines yet. There's no point in your coming here."

"It's alright, Senior Brother. Yunya came this time to deliver resources to you..."

The interaction between Tian Chan and Yunya caused many immortals and Great Emperors present, who were unaware of the truth, to sigh in admiration. One look at Palace Master Tian and Immortal Lord Yunya, and it was obvious they had the makings of Dao Companions!

"Resources? What resources?" Tian Chan frowned, an ominous premonition welling up in her heart.

Yunya lowered her head, a trace of dull gloominess hidden deep within her eyes. However, she raised her hand, her palm supporting a miniature palm-sized bottle.

"The life-extending immortal elixirs promised by Young Master Jiang have been delivered. Among them are... five hundred supreme-grade longevity pills, and... and eight thousand high-grade longevity pills. Please inspect them, Sect Master and fellow immortals."

Tian Chan: "!!!"
