(1-9) He Gains Top Talent, Yet Secretly Cultivates for a Thousand Years

The young man unexpectedly acquired the shake system. Every day, he could shake a dice to reset his attributes. Yet, he had shaken it for eleven years straight. Each time, his attributes were either that of a millennium's worth of trash or of ten millennium's worth of rubbish. Now, he has become numb to the daily routine of shaking. He swore to only start cultivating after shaking an exceptional attribute. Today, as usual, he shook and got the spiritual root of a millennium's worth of trash again. Frustrated, he spat out a mouthful of blood. With a sense of resignation,

he began to shake his innate destiny. Suddenly, a streak of golden light flashed by. He actually shook out a super great innate destiny with four attributes. Top level charm. Top level swordsmanship aptitude. Top level agility. After the game of life begins, he will obtain an unparalleled cultivation technique and one thousand high-grade spirit stones. He was completely stunned. Then, he lay on the ground, laughing madly. From now on, I just need to focus on shaking for a high-quality spiritual root qualification, now that I have this superior destiny. Even if I shake until I'm forty, so what?

In the not-too-distant future, there will definitely be a place for me in this cultivation world. The young man is named Han Ju. His parents, who were servants of Old Tai, an alchemist of the Jade Pure Sect's outer sect, usually planted elixirs for him. But in the year he turned six, his parents abandoned Han Ju and ran away. Thus, Han Ju took over his parents' job. One day, two cultivators from the Jade Pure Sect's inner sect suddenly arrived at this medicine valley. It turned out that Old Tai was out on business, and the sect specifically asked

them to guard this place. Just like that, another two years passed, and Han Ju hadn't shaken a single high-quality spiritual root. My luck is really too bad. I'm afraid I might die shaking without ever getting a superior spiritual root. Just then, Old Tai came back and called for everyone to assemble. Old Tai first praised everyone. You all did well while I was away. No problems occurred, and I am very pleased. Everyone looked deeply moved. This is what we should do. It's our honor to relieve our master of worries. Han Ju, however, looked unimpressed. Pfft. A

bunch of bootlickers. No matter how sweet your words, this old man won't give you any real benefits. At that moment, Old Tai suddenly called Han Ju and three others over to him for a spiritual root qualification check. Han Ju thought, hasn't he always forbidden servants from cultivating? Wait, this is… There's blood on his clothes. Old Tai is injured. Fortunately, Han Ju had never shaken a good spiritual root. Then another chubby kid was found to have a spiritual root, and Old Tai immediately said, I wish to take you as my disciple and take you outside the

valley to cultivate. Would you like that? The chubby kid was ecstatic. I would love to. Only Han Ju knew. This chubby kid might never come back. This world is too dangerous. I need to hurry up and shake out a spiritual root for cultivation. Three years passed just like that. Suddenly, a loud pig-like laughter came from Han Ju's room. Han Ju was so excited that he rolled around on the ground, for he had shaken out a top-level spiritual root containing six attributes. Han Ju was about to start cultivating with the help of the system, but then

he suddenly thought of Old Tai. That old geezer. That chubby kid has never been seen again since he was taken away. Probably dead by now. It would be dangerous if he found out I was cultivating. At that moment, the system suddenly popped up a notification. You can choose a small place, and the system will help create a barrier. Cultivators outside the barrier will not be able to detect any changes inside. Han Ju was overjoyed. A barrier could be created. In that case, today, I, Han Ju, will officially step onto the path of cultivation. System, begin.

The next moment, he appeared in the system's space. Options floated before his eyes. Now that you have unexpectedly awakened the inheritance of the Immortal Emperor and obtained an unparalleled technique, Six Realms of Reincarnation, and set forth on the path of cultivation, please choose your main cultivation path. Han Ju thought the Six Realms of Reincarnation must involve cultivating all six types of spiritual roots together. He immediately decided to choose Sword Cultivator as his main cultivation path. Then, he watched as all the surrounding spiritual energy was absorbed into his body. Han Ju instantly felt powerful and discovered

an added relationship panel. Upon opening it, he found his relationship with Old Tai was marked as hatred. Han Ju couldn't help but grit his teeth in anger. Damn it, Old Tai! You bastard! I've been toiling away at planting grass for you, and you still hate me? Wait! Old Tai's pettiness probably stems from my parents running away, but he hasn't done anything to me. He has been gone somewhere in the recent years, so I can cultivate in peace. Immediately, Han Ju calmed his mind and began to cultivate peacefully. Han Ju felt the spiritual energy of wind,

earth, wood, and water around him, but there was no fire and thunder spiritual energy. Without further thought, he decided to first cultivate these four types of spiritual energy well. Just then, the system popped up again with two options. First, obtain an energy cultivation realm magical tool. Second, unlock the ability to hide one's cultivation level and spiritual root. Han Ju felt, to be able to hide one's cultivation level and spiritual root, this system is really thoughtful. Without hesitation, he chose the second option. Time flew by, and two years passed. Han Ju's four types of spiritual energy

had now been cultivated to the seventh level of the energy cultivation realm. However, just when Han Ju thought he could continue to cultivate peacefully, trouble came knocking. As Han Ju was about to return, an inner sect disciple named Xing Hongxian found him and directly asked him to follow her to a small forest. Han Ju was puzzled. I don't know her. Why would she suddenly ask me to go to a small forest? Immediately, he opened the relationship list and found that Xing Hongxian had two stars of goodwill towards Han Ju. Could she be wanting to dual

cultivate with me? Should I comply or comply? Just when Han Ju was slightly excited, Xing Hongxian said, help me get old Tai's pill recipe and I'll take you away from the Jade Pure sect to join the demon cult. If your aptitude is good and you achieve some level of cultivation, I might even consider becoming your cultivation partner. Han Ju was instantly petrified. Damn, this woman is a demon cultivator. Han Ju immediately felt despair. Offending the Jade Pure sect would get me chased to the ends of the earth. But if I refuse, this witch will definitely

kill me to silence me. Although she and I are both at the seventh level of the energy cultivation realm, I have not learned any spells. I must not confront her directly. Han Ju immediately said, I don't know where the item is, and there's also your fellow sect member guarding the attic. But Xing Hongxian pressed him down. The item is in the attic. As for the other person, I will take care of luring them away. Then she took out a black pill, just in case. This pill can help you activate your spiritual root. Without waiting for

any reaction from Han Ju, she stuffed it into his mouth and forced him to swallow. As soon as Han Ju returned to his room, he had the system help him expel the elixir. While Han Ju was considering whether to follow Xing Hongxuan's orders, the system popped up. First, steal the pill recipe, win Xing Hongxuan's favor, and earn a 5-star hatred from the Jade Pure sect. Second, absolutely refuse, prevent Xing Hongxian from getting the pill recipe, to acquire the sword technique, Supreme Finger Divine Sword. Looking at the two options provided by the system, Han Ju didn't

hesitate to choose the second one. That night, while Han Ju was cultivating in his room, Xing Hongxian suddenly appeared outside his window. I have found out that the pill recipe is in the study. I will lure the guard on Old Tai's attic away in a moment. You go in and search. Remember, there is a formation in the attic. If anything goes wrong, Old Tai will rush back immediately. You don't have much time, so be quick. Soon, Han Ju arrived at the attic, and indeed, everyone had been lured away. Han Ju went into the study, pretending

to search. He pretended to look around casually, and then started to slack off. What a joke. The storeroom is so big. How can I possibly find it? This witch could have sneaked in herself to find the pill recipe much more easily, yet she insists on making such a big fuss. Is she out of her mind? People really are different. Even the pen's Old Tai uses are made of gold, while we, the medicine slaves, can only scrape by on the bare minimum. The damned rich landlords. Xing Hongxian suddenly appeared behind Han Ju. What are you mumbling

about? Did you find the pill recipe? Seeing that Han Ju wasn't really looking for the pill recipe, Xing Hongxian was about to kill him. Han Ju, scared, bumped into a cabinet, and a vase fell from the cabinet. The pill recipe then appeared before them both. Han Ju was completely numb. No! This is not how you hide things. It's over. Now that she has the pill recipe, she'll definitely kill to silence me. Just as Xing Hongxian lunged at him, unexpectedly, Xing Hongxian excitedly hugged Han Ju. You really are my lucky charm. I never expected the honest

you to create such romance. Watching Xing Hongxuan's excited demeanor, Han Ju thought to himself, I must not let her get the pill recipe, or my supreme finger divine sword technique will be gone. He picked up a brick, ready to stealthily knock her out, when suddenly an attack hit them both. Han Ju was blasted away, and the pill recipe flew into the hands of a newcomer, who was none other than Old Tai. Daring to covet the pill recipe, you are truly audacious. Seeing she was no match for Old Tai, Xing Hongxian didn't hesitate to run away.

When Han Ju, lying on the ground, woke up and saw Old Tai, he immediately said, Lord, you've finally come. I almost lost my life trying to stall that witch. Afterward, Old Tai asked Han Ju to explain the situation clearly. Once Han Ju had told everything to Old Tai, he didn't make things difficult for him. Knowing that he had successfully bluffed his way through, Han Ju quickly scurried away. At this moment, the system also sent a notification, Mission Completed, Successfully Obtained Supreme Finger Divine Sword. Another two years passed, Han Ju had cultivated all four types of

spiritual root to the ninth level of the energy cultivation realm. He was only short of cultivating the lightning and fire spiritual roots to the ninth level to break through to the foundation establishment realm. It was also time for him to leave this place, taking advantage of the twilight. He took his back and left the place he had lived in for twenty years. He directly arrived at the gate of the Jade Pure Sect. My name is Han Ju, a rogue cultivator at the ninth level of the energy cultivation realm, wishing to join the Jade Pure Sect.

May I know if there's a way in? The gatekeeper was about to report it, when he happened upon the outer sect steward, Yang Luo. He immediately had Han Ju demonstrate his spiritual energy. Han Ju casually executed a move of the Supreme Finger Divine Sword, slicing off the top of a mountain. This move directly stunned the three of them. Without another word, Yang Luo took Han Ju to register. On the way, Han Ju asked, does the Jade Pure Sect have a place for cultivating lightning and fire spiritual energy? Yang Luo was startled upon hearing this. Could

this person be a lightning spiritual root? Then he said, the inner sect might have such places, but the qualification to enter the inner sect is reaching the foundation establishment stage. However, if you are a lightning spiritual root, you might be an exception and be allowed to join the inner sect directly. Hearing this, Han Ju immediately showed his lightning spiritual root. Then, Yang Luo took Han Ju to see an elder, and Han Ju casually displayed three of his spiritual roots. Just like that, Han Ju easily joined the inner sect, and even received a luxurious welcome package.

The elder and Yang Luo told him to rest well, and said they would take him to the inner sect once the great elder returned. Han Ju sighed lightly. I accidentally became a key figure to be looked after, but he soon discovered there was fire spiritual energy here, and without a second thought, he started cultivating it. Half a year later, the great elder returned. Yang Luo immediately came to inform Han Ju. Upon opening the door, Yang Luo was surprised to find that Han Ju had been cultivating all this half year. When Han Ju opened his eyes,

he had already cultivated his fire spiritual root to the fourth level of the energy cultivation realm. Then, he went with Yang Luo to meet the great elder. The great elder directly said to Han Ju, the sect has eighteen peaks, which means there are eighteen teaching elders. If someone takes a liking to you, you can directly become an inner sect disciple. Otherwise, you will have to reach foundation establishment as soon as possible to participate in the sect's minor competition. Then, the great elder took Han Ju on a flying gourd towards the inner sect. On the way,

the great elder introduced the various elders of the inner sect to Han Ju. Each peak has its own atmosphere due to the character of the teaching elder. Some are low-key and focus on hard cultivation, while others are often out on missions. So, what kind of cultivation atmosphere do you wish to join? Han Ju thought for a moment. I'll choose the low-key and hard cultivation path. I don't like bustle, and I don't like being high-profile. The great elder looked at Han Ju with a meaningful glance, then chuckled. Jade Seclusion Peak suits you very well. You will

definitely like it there. Upon entering the inner sect, they were stunned by the scenery before them. Han Ju had thought the Jade Pure sect was just a small sect, but it turned out to be so vast. The great elder flew around, introducing the various places of the inner sect to Han Ju. When they arrived at Jade Seclusion Peak, the entire mountain seemed quiet and serene. The great elder said, the teaching elder of Jade Seclusion Peak is Xixuan Ferry. Her cultivation is profound and inscrutable, and she likes to cultivate in seclusion, making Jade Seclusion Peak quiet.

Moreover, she does not allow her disciples to have romantic entanglements, so Jade Seclusion Peak is mainly composed of hard cultivators. Hearing this, Han Ju's eyes lit up. This place is simply my heaven. Upon entering the main hall, the great elder introduced Han Ju to Xixuan Ferry. Xixuan Ferry asked, Han Ju, are you willing to focus solely on cultivation without concerning yourself with worldly matters? Just as Han Ju was about to answer, he heard a voice. Finally, Jade Seclusion Peak has got a decent junior brother. A girl approached. Han Ju immediately opened the relationship list and

found that Chan Yue had two hearts of goodwill towards him, but Han Ju immediately replied, Xixuan Ferry, unless ordered, I can stay in seclusion for a hundred years without stepping outside. Upon hearing this, Chan Yue's goodwill immediately dropped to one star. Then, Xixuan Ferry asked Han Ju to launch an attack on her. Immediately, Han Ju gathered all his strength into a sword energy, rushing towards Xixuan Ferry like lightning. But just as it was about to hit Xixuan Ferry, the sword energy vanished into thin air. Xixuan Ferry asked lightly, is this the only move you know?

Han Ju honestly admitted it. Xixuan Ferry then said, this sword technique is not bad. From now on, stay at Jade Seclusion Peak. The great elder left Han Ju a meaningful smile before leaving, but Han Ju noticed Xixuan Ferry staring intently at him, just as he was puzzled about the situation. Chan Yue quickly hinted. He's telling you to pay your respects as a disciple. Only then did Han Ju realize, and he quickly knelt in front of Xixuan Ferry. Disciple Han Ju pays respects to Master. May Master live forever. Xixuan Ferry was rendered speechless by Han Ju's

actions. Do you think your master is an empress? Well, Yue, take your junior brother to register at the inner sect and help him arrange for a cave dwelling. Chan Yue immediately dragged Han Ju away with joy. On the way, Chan Yue heartily told Han Ju to come to her if he needed anything. Chan Yue's direct gaze made Han Ju dare not look her in the eye. He hurriedly said, I wouldn't dare to trouble senior sister. If senior sister needs anything, feel free to instruct your junior brother. This made Chan Yue extremely happy. I've been at

Jade Seclusion Peak for five years, and finally, a good-looking junior brother with an attitude and personality that suits my taste has arrived. I can't let him run away. Han Ju, observing his senior sister's expression, filled with a greedy ferocity like that of a wolf, couldn't help but feel a surge of fear. This Jade Seclusion Peak doesn't live up to its name. Why are all the female disciples like wolves and tigers? Soon, Chan Yue had arranged Han Ju's cave dwelling, even placing him next to her own dwelling. After the senior sister left, Han Ju took a

good look at his cave dwelling, once again marveling at the luxury of the inner sect. Then he remembered that his master's realm was at the third level of the nascent soul realm in the relationship list. This is the strongest cultivator I've come into contact with so far. I must cling to such a powerful figure. The known levels of cultivation from low to high are respectively. foundation establishment realm, golden core realm, nascent soul realm, and the entire jade pure sect. Only the founding ancestor's realm has reached beyond the nascent soul realm, yet he has been away

for many years and has not returned. Just as he was preparing to start cultivating, the system suddenly popped up and gave Han Ju two options. First, earn reputation and lead Jade Seclusion Peak to become the most powerful peak. The reward for the mission is an unparalleled magical tool, but it would offend Xishuang Fairy. Second, cultivate in a low-profile manner and gain recognition from Xishuang Fairy, which would reward a secret manual for agility. Upon seeing the first option, Han Ju was instantly speechless. Earning reputation and leading Jade Seclusion Peak to become the most powerful peak sounds

like a good thing, doesn't it? Why would it offend Xishuang Fairy? This master is a bit strange. Before he knew it, another three years had passed. Han Ju had cultivated all but his lightning spiritual root to the ninth level of the energy cultivation realm. He immediately sought out his master. I have now cultivated both the wind and fire spiritual roots to the ninth level of the energy cultivation realm. Could master guide me to where I can cultivate lightning spiritual energy? Xishuang Fairy looked at Han Ju in surprise. Are you aiming for a foundation establishment with

three types of spiritual power? But Xishuang Fairy immediately threw cold water on Han Ju's plans. Specializing in just one type of spiritual energy is already extremely difficult. And you're planning to specialize in three? Not to mention the Heavenly Tribulation will be stronger later on. The time lost in cultivation is also a loss. Han Ju understood. Indeed, there is a reason. Having these spiritual roots must come with a price. It's just that master probably didn't expect that I have my own methods. He then stated, disciple will spend all his time on cultivation. Seeing this, Xishuang Fairy's

mouth slightly curved up. The inner sect has a teleportation array leading to the Thunder Spirit Pool. Soon, Han Ju arrived at the Thunder Spirit Pool and was again astonished by the grandeur of the Jade Pure Sect. I originally thought the so-called Thunder Spirit Pool was just a small pond. It seems I was looking at the sky from the bottom of a well. At this moment, he noticed that the vast Thunder Spirit Pool had only one person cultivating. While he was dazed, suddenly, a tree trunk with a human face appeared behind Han Ju. Do not wander

around inside the Thunder Spirit Pool. You can only cultivate by the poolside. Otherwise, if you're struck by lightning and die, it's your own fault. Immediately, a wretched scream echoed throughout the entire Thunder Spirit Pool. It took Han Ju a moment to realize. To actually encounter a tree demon, the Jade Pure Sect has really invested heavily. Now that a tree demon is present, which is known as a cultivation catalyst, though it looks a bit sinister, cultivating near it will definitely double the efficiency. I've really come to the right place. He then excitedly shouted, I must cultivate

to the ninth level within a year. The other person cultivating at the Thunder Spirit Pool, upon hearing this, couldn't help but be speechless. Are these even human words? That's too arrogant. However, a year later, he was thoroughly proven wrong. Han Ju actually managed to cultivate his lightning spiritual energy from zero to the ninth level within a year. At this time, Han Ju had finally reached the great perfection in all six types of energy cultivation. Purple electricity continuously wrapping around his body. He then decided to go straight for Foundation Establishment. The blue-haired young man in the

field suddenly looked up at the sky, only to see a large amount of purple electricity gathering above. The might of this Thunder Tribulation shocked him. Then, the tree demon appeared behind the young man. Foundation Establishment Thunder Tribulation? Damn, he really picked the place. Triggering the Thunder Tribulation in this Thunder Spirit Pool will at least double its power. You better get out of here to avoid being affected. It's too late for him to save himself. The Tribulation clouds have already formed. In their eyes, Han Ju was undoubtedly going to die this time. Others prepare thoroughly before

facing their Tribulation. But Han Ju was directly undergoing his Tribulation in the Thunder Spirit Pool, doubling the power of the Thunder Tribulation. What was even more terrifying was that he directly absorbed the Heavenly Tribulation, turning it into his power for Foundation Establishment. Two years later, his realm had reached the third level of the Foundation Establishment realm, and his lifespan was almost 200 years. Han Ju cultivated because he feared death. While he was secretly pleased, the system popped up two options again. First, become famous in the Jade Pure Sect, which would grant the Nine Nether Thunder

technique and earn the Hatred of Xishuan Fairy. Second, quietly cultivate to form the Golden Core early, which would reward a Supreme Magical Sword. Han Ju was speechless again at the first option. How much does my master dislike fame? Then, the blue-haired young man cultivating at the Thunder Spirit Pool came up behind Han Ju. Han Ju is referred to as Mafuchu of Thunder Peak. May I have your name? Han Ju also politely introduced himself. Upon learning that Han Ju was from Jade Seclusion Peak, Mafuchu immediately tried to recruit him. A junior brother of Jade Seclusion Peak?

With your talent, it's a waste to join Jade Seclusion Peak. Why not come to my Thunder Peak? My master is a Thunder Cultivator. Han Ju didn't even think before politely declining. I have already taken Xishuan Fairy as my master. A master for a day is a father for life. How can I casually change allegiances? Thank you for your kindness, Brother Emal. But then, the system suddenly popped up a notification. Han Ju glanced at it and was shocked. The system displayed several statuses of Xing Hongxian. Your friend Xing Hongxian has been heavily injured and narrowly escaped

death from being hunted down by the Jade Pure Sect. Your friend Xing Hongxian has been hunted down by fellow sect members, but luckily managed to counterkill. Your friend Xing Hongxian has betrayed the Azure Nether Demon Sect and is being hunted down. Your friend Xing Hongxuan's goodwill towards you has increased. Current goodwill is four stars. Han Ju was speechless. After so many years, this woman is still alive, but we haven't even seen each other. Where did this goodwill come from? Is she okay? Meanwhile, Xing Hongxian was continuously dodging pursuers. Breathing a sigh of relief, finally got

rid of the demon cult. As she was confused about where to go next, she suddenly thought of Han Ju. When Han Ju was about to hit her with a brick, coincidentally blocking most of Old Tai's attack, Xing Hongxian mistakenly thought Han Ju was protecting her. This was the first time in her life someone had stood up for her. Xing Hongxian had firmly come to regard Han Ju as her husband in her heart. As Han Ju returned to his cave dwelling and was about to start cultivating, he heard the sound of bells. When Han Ju came

out of his dwelling, he encountered Chan Yu'er and learned that this was the signal for the master to assemble all disciples. The two then flew on their swords towards the main hall. Upon Han Ju's arrival in the hall, it was already filled with a large number of disciples. Han Ju's appearance also caused quite a stir among the disciples. At this moment, Xishuan Ferry, seeing that everyone had arrived, directly said, following the sect leader's order, from now on, in the Eighteen Peaks Battles, the last three peaks will send disciples to participate in the fight against the

Azure Nether Demon sect. In recent years, the Azure Nether Demon sect has repeatedly sent spies to plot against the Jade Pure sect. The sect leader has declared that we should prepare to retaliate. Han Ju was speechless, sending the bottom three peaks. Isn't this just delivering them on a platter? At this time, the eldest disciple, Lu Sanxing, stated, although our Jade Seclusion Peak has always been low profile, we also want to serve the sect. Master, the sect has recently launched an outstanding disciple training program, selecting the most outstanding disciples from each peak for cultivation, to be

the foundation of the next generation of the sect. Isn't this tailor-made for me? Unexpectedly, Xishuan Ferry chose Han Ju. Lu Sanxing and Han Ju, upon hearing this, were both shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. Han Ju quickly refused, I am honored by Master's high regard, but I only wish to quietly cultivate at Jade Seclusion Peak. Please give this opportunity to my fellow brothers and sisters. Han Ju also guessed, Master values me this much? Could it be she suspects me of being a demon sect spy? Better safe than sorry, I'll still refuse. Seeing Han

Ju so resolute, Xishuan Ferry didn't say much more. Really? Then, Lu Sanxing, you go. You are the eldest disciple of Jade Seclusion Peak, you must not cause trouble. Afterward, Lu Sanxing specially came to Han Ju to express his thanks. Junior brother, I have to thank you for speaking well of me to the Master. If you encounter any trouble in the future, feel free to tell your elder brother. Han Ju smiled. Then, I wish elder brother smooth sailing. At this moment, Chang Yue hurriedly came over. Elder brother, I can take care of the junior brother. The

elder brother immediately understood Chang Yue's intention and, before leaving, gave Han Ju a meaningful smile. Then Chang Yue said, Speaking of which, junior brother, you've been cultivating for so long and haven't done any sect missions, right? Want me to take you? Doing sect missions can earn a lot of cultivation resources. No need, senior sister. I still have enough spirit stone resources. Chang Yue then added, The contribution points from doing missions can be exchanged for elixirs. To which Han Ju responded, I'm afraid of death, so forget it. Chang Yue became angry. How can we cultivators be

afraid of death? If we're not afraid of death, then why bother cultivating for immortality? This left Chang Yue unable to retort. Xi Xuan Ferry, overhearing Han Ju's astonishing statement, was also left speechless for a moment. It seems Han Ju is indeed not a spy from the demon sect, but a rogue cultivator without a lack of resources and with superior talent. Still, we should observe a bit longer. Just like that, another ten years passed. Han Ju once again came to the Thunder Spirit Pool. As soon as Han Ju arrived, the tree demon started causing trouble. I

thought you were a genius before, but so many years have passed, and you're still at the Foundation Establishment, third level? Han Ju nonchalantly scratched his head. Well, who can say for sure with cultivation? He was only showing his lightning spiritual root. His other five types of spiritual roots had already reached the fifth level of the Foundation Establishment. At this moment, Ma Fu Chu also walked over, followed by a girl. Ma Fu Chu introduced her to Han Ju. This is my sister, Ma Ju. Upon seeing Han Ju, Ma Ju immediately asked, why are you still at

the Foundation Establishment, third level? My brother said you might be at the sixth level by now. Han Ju just chuckled, taking it step by step. Then he sat down cross-legged, ready to start cultivating. I'll start cultivating now. Staying here costs quite a few spirit stones. Just a heads up, if you want to cultivate, please stay a bit away from me. As soon as he finished speaking, he began absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy into himself. Ma Fu Chu, seeing this, was shocked. This absorption speed of spiritual energy is even more terrifying than mine. How is this

possible? I'm at the Foundation Establishment, ninth level. This person must have a way to suppress his cultivation level. His real cultivation level must not be below mine. Han Ju has been cultivating like this for eight years, finally cultivating his lightning power to the ninth level to perfection. As Han Ju prepared to leave, the tree demon said. I have an opportunity here that can provide many cultivation resources. Would you be interested? Hm? Is it dangerous? Opportunities always come with risks. Hearing there were risks, Han Ju didn't even think before turning around to leave. Just as Han

Ju was collecting his salary for the past few years, Ma Ju suddenly approached him. I have a favor to ask of Han Ju. It's a great opportunity. Upon hearing about the opportunity, Han Ju couldn't hold back any longer and refused without a second thought. Sorry, I need to go back to cultivate, and then disappeared in front of Ma Ju. Suddenly, Han Ju overheard passersby talking about the inner sect competition. He was struck as if by lightning. I've cultivated too intensely and forgot about such an important event. Master might skin me alive for this. Han Ju

immediately went to find Xishuan Fairy and confessed his mistake. Fortunately, Xishuan Fairy did not blame him. However, seeing that Han Ju's cultivation level was still at the Foundation Establishment, third level, she couldn't help but show a puzzled face. Han Ju explained. I am actually at the Foundation Establishment, ninth level. I just wanted to keep a low profile by hiding my cultivation level. This move significantly increased Xishuan Fairy's favorable impression of him. At this moment, the system also notified Han Ju that the task of cultivating low-key and gaining Xishuan Fairy's recognition was completed. He received a

secret technique, Sevenfold Illusion Step. It was then Han Ju noticed that the Master had taken a new disciple. Turning his head, he saw it was none other than Old Tai. Old Tai also looked up at Han Ju at the same moment. The two of them stared at each other, shouting out each other's names simultaneously in surprise. Chan Yue looked curious. So you two know each other? At that moment, Xishuan Fairy said to Han Ju. This is a new disciple who has just joined Jade Seclusion Peak. You can call him Tai Junior Brother. Little did she

know, the expressions on their faces were as colorful as they could be. Then, Xishuan Fairy brought up a serious matter. Han Ju, since you like cultivating so much, I have a mission for you. Guard the Myriad Demon Realm of the Jade Pure Sect. Han Ju, hearing this, broke out in a cold sweat. This Myriad Demon Realm sounds impressive, but also seems very dangerous. However, Chan Yue got excited. That's where the Jade Pure Sect keeps its demon pets. Let me accompany Han Ju, your brother. Master, Xishuan Fairy directly refused Chan Yue. It's very dangerous there. There

are often rampages of demons, and there have been instances of disciples being brutally killed. Already worried, Han Ju was even more scared upon hearing this. Isn't this setting your disciple up for failure? It's not even being concealed. But looking at Xishuan Fairy's expression, it seems I have no chance to refuse. This should be similar to being a zoo security guard. I'll just have to slack off when the time comes. He respectfully agreed to follow the arrangement, and then went back to pack his things. Seeing the two leaving, Xishuan Fairy suddenly said to Old Tai, I

don't want to dwell on your past with Han Ju. From now on, you are brothers. Getting along with him will only benefit you. As long as there's no deep hatred, try to resolve it. From what I know of him, he won't scheme against you. In the future, Han Ju will be a direct disciple of Jade Seclusion Peak. Speaking of which, Han Ju had been in the Myriad Demon Realm for a year and a half. Spending his days in nothing but cultivation, browsing through the system's social feed out of boredom one day, he suddenly received several

messages about Maju. Your friend Maju was attacked by a demon cultivator and nearly severely injured. Your friend Maju was attacked by a disciple of the Jade Pure Sect. Hanging on for dear life, fell off a cliff. He couldn't help but sigh. Opportunities really never bring anything good. Missimo better just take care of herself. Then, stretching lazily, he went out to patrol. He made regular patrols to prevent any disturbances from the demons. Stepping outside, he found a cute little cat perched on a tree branch, looking harmless. He turned to walk away, but the little cat suddenly

transformed into a big cat and launched a sneak attack on Han Ju. In an instant, its sharp claws tore through Han Ju. But the next second, Han Ju turned into a wisp of smoke and vanished, with the real Han Ju already on the rooftop. He had just used the Sevenfold Illusion Step technique. This technique allows each level to split into one afterimage, and at its peak at the seventh level, it can split into seven afterimages. Han Ju split into seven afterimages and charged at the demon beast from all directions, surrounding it. All figures simultaneously executed

the Supreme Finger Divine Sword, shooting numerous sword energies towards the demon beast. Although only the real body could inflict damage, the demon beast couldn't discern which was real and which was fake. In an instant, it was severely injured by Han Ju and immediately ran away. Han Ju didn't pursue it. He noticed that the demon disturbances had become more apparent recently and decided to report this situation. After the sect's higher-ups were informed of the situation, they immediately convened a meeting. They speculated that there must be a traitor within the sect's upper echelons. With the sect leader

missing, they had no choice but to send more people to thoroughly investigate the matter. Two years later, Han Ju was sitting within a forbidden formation in the Myriad Demon Realm. He discovered that this formation was a treasure. Inside the formation, even those at the Golden Core Realm couldn't enter, and its soundproofing was top-notch. It was perfect for both cultivation and rest. Just as he was pleased with himself, suddenly a voice came from behind. Young friend, are you using the Myriad Demon Realm as a place for cultivation? Han Ju casually responded, what else? But the next

second, he realized something and turned around in shock, only to find a fat man standing behind him. This person is unaffected by the restrictions, then his strength must be above the Golden Core level. The fat man said, I am also a jade pure sect disciple sent to guard the Myriad Demon Realm. You seem to be at the Foundation Establishment Realm 3rd level, but judging by your actual breathing rate, you're at the Foundation Establishment Realm 9th level, right? You don't need to be nervous. Did you come here on your own, or did your master send you?

My master, Xishuan Ferry, sent me here. Hearing this, the fat man leaned in closer. Did your master assign you any tasks? Even if she did, why would I tell you? Oh, can't tell others? Interesting. Junior sister, alright, kid, you've already gotten yourself into big trouble. For your master's sake, I can help you solve it. At this moment, Han Ju was startled by the relationship list that popped up from the system. Han Ju's closest person was the jade pure sect's sect leader, Li Qingzi, who admired Xishuan Ferry. Li Qingzi then explained, the demon beasts here are

showing signs of unrest, and these beasts are under Demon King Tiger Heart White Dragon. You must know that Tiger Heart White Dragon holds grudges and seeks revenge for even the slightest slights. This time, commanding so many demon beasts to lurk here in preparation for an uprising. Be honest with me, what did you do before to provoke Tiger Heart White Dragon? However, at this moment, Han Ju was not interested in listening to him. His mind was filled with images of Li Qingzi and his master, Xishuan Ferry, together, feeling extremely angry inside. This fat man is not

worthy of my master. Junior friend, I'm asking you a question. Han Ju then recounted the previous events to Li Qingzi. After hearing the story, Li Qingzi mused, how strange, the demon beast uprising happened earlier than expected. It seems it wasn't your doing. Most likely, the demon cult is causing trouble behind the scenes. Your encounter with Tiger Heart White Dragon was just a side episode. You're really lucky. The demon king must have been trapped into expending too much energy. Otherwise, you would have been doomed. What kind of movement technique did you use to outpace Tiger Heart

White Dragon? Han Ju casually responded, just a technique I picked up on the road. It's normal for it to be faster. This frustrated Li Qingzi immensely. That's a demon king. Even Golden Core realm experts would struggle with its speed. Right now, we need to prioritize dealing with the potential beast uprising and start from the root. Do you mean to kill it? Senior, kill it? That demon king has immense potential. If it's killed, will you compensate? Perhaps this is an opportunity. Your master sending you to the Myriad Demon Realm must have been intended for you to

make a name for yourself. Plus, your movement technique is extraordinary. Having faced Tiger Heart White Dragon and come out unscathed, you must have some tricks up your sleeve. I suggest you go and subdue it. Without hesitation, Han Ju turned around and left. Senior, please find someone else. I just want to cultivate in peace. Li Qingzi hurriedly called out to stop Han Ju. I will set up a formation to trap them here, relieving you of the pressure. If you can subdue Tiger Heart White Dragon, I will teach you the Jade Pure Sect's supreme technique, the Jade

Purity Art. At that moment, the system popped up a choice. 1. Accept the mission. Strive to subdue Tiger Heart White Dragon and receive the secret technique reward from Li Qingzi, the hatred of the demon king and the attention of the Azure Nether Demon Sect. 2. Refuse the mission. Return to continue cultivating and receive a sword technique manual, with a decrease in Li Qingzi's favorability. Seeing that subduing the demon king would bring the demon king's hatred and the Azure Nether Demon Sect's attention, Han Ju decisively said, sorry for the disturbance, farewell, and then turned around to

leave. This left Li Qingzi stomping his feet in frustration. How did my junior sister end up with such a disciple? Sighing helplessly, he ultimately took on the burden alone. You see, I was right, demon king. It's truly you, easily sensing this place. Immediately, Li Qingzi engaged in a fierce battle with the demon king. Several days after the demon beast uprising, Chang Yu'er suddenly arrived in the Myriad Demon Realm. Accompanied by the 7th senior brother of Jade Seclusion Peak, Meng He, it turns out that Xishuan Fairy sent them to assist Han Ju. Meng He then went

alone to scout the surroundings. Chang Yu'er told Han Ju, this time we came because Master feared for your safety. It's said that spies from the demon cult have infiltrated the Myriad Demon Realm. We must be extra cautious. Hearing this, Han Ju immediately suggested leaving the Myriad Demon Realm. Just as Chang Yu'er was about to refuse, Meng He returned, wounded all over. I saw a group of demon beasts trapped by a formation near a cliff a few miles away. I was on my way back when I encountered a golden core-level demon beast. Han Ju quickly took

out an elixir to heal Meng He, while thinking to himself, indeed, one cannot be reckless when outside. The fate of my senior brother proves it. At that moment, they were horrified to discover a horde of demon beasts charging towards them. Han Ju was ready to flee, but Chang Yu'er said, this area is under the jurisdiction of our Jade Seclusion Peak, wouldn't leaving be considered desertion? Han Ju, devoid of any sense of martial honor, retorted, then you can stay here and wait for death. I'll sing praises of your bravery to Master. Meng He also ceased to

insist, Han Ju, your brother is right. Each of the eighteen peaks has its own area to manage in the Myriad Demon Realm. The beast tide is attacking not just us. As long as we survive, there's no fear of losing the battle. Let's move, right now. No sooner had they stepped out of the house than the attic was demolished by the demon beast army. Seeing the demon beasts not stopping and continuing to charge forward, they deduced that the demon cult must be up to something. Suddenly, Han Ju sensed a strong demonic aura and saw a huge

eagle with its mouth wide open biting towards them. Fortunately, Han Ju reacted in time, grabbing Chang Yu'er and dodging. While Meng He seized the chance to escape alone, Han Ju couldn't help but curse in his heart, damn it, that coward just abandoned us and ran for his life. Chang Yu'er suddenly cried out in fear, noticing a golden core level demon beast and six foundation establishment pinnacle level demon beasts circling above them. As the demon beasts charged towards them, Chang Yu'er closed her eyes in despair, thinking they were doomed. Yet, Han Ju's mouth curved into a

slight smile. Around him appeared three sword shadows of different colors, the peerless sword technique he acquired by refusing Li Qingzi, the three-pure shadow sword. With just a gentle utterance of the word slash from Han Ju, the seven demon beasts were instantly annihilated. Chang Yu'er was utterly stunned. Had she not seen it with her own eyes, she would have never believed it. Remembering the look in Han Ju's eyes at that moment, she couldn't help but blush and feel her heart flutter. But then, she saw Han Ju packing up the corpses of the demon beasts. What a

haul today. These demon beasts are treasures all over. I heard they can be exchanged for spirit stones. Let's go. Chang Yu'er was rendered speechless again. Bring back my junior brother from just now. When the two arrived at the Myriad Demon Realm's teleportation array, Meng He excitedly rushed towards them upon seeing them alive. Junior brother, junior sister, you're still alive. This is wonderful. Only to be met with a kick to the face from Chang Yu'er. Why weren't you eaten by the demon beasts? After they emerged, Han Ju's first course of action was to exchange the demon

beasts' corpses for spirit stones. Looking at a big bag full of spirit stones, Han Ju was so excited he considered going back for another round against the demon beasts. Chang Yu'er, noticing Han Ju's thoughts, said, The Myriad Demon Realm is a small world specially created by the sect for cultivating demon beasts. Each one is extremely valuable. Under normal circumstances, disciples are not allowed to hunt the demon beasts inside. This time was an exception, so we might not be held accountable. While saying this, she continued to beat Meng He. Hearing this, Han Ju had no choice

but to give up the idea. I better just continue to cultivate quietly and save up spirit stones gradually. The amount I have left should be enough to attempt reaching the Golden Core. Then, the three of them went to see Xishuan Fairy and reported the events within the Myriad Demon Realm. Xishuan Fairy didn't say much after hearing it and asked Chang Yu'er and the others to leave, keeping Han Ju behind. At this point, Han Ju was extremely anxious. Is she going to settle scores with me alone? Is Master still suspicious of me? When will this ever

end? Xishuan Fairy suddenly asked, Han Ju, what is the purpose of your cultivation? Only for immortality. Hearing this response, Xishuan Fairy was speechless for a moment. If you keep secluding yourself for cultivation without seeking opportunities, you cannot achieve immortality. I understand, Master, but I wish to strengthen my cultivation first. Once I have enough strength, I'll seek opportunities. Han Ju thought to himself, with my unparalleled talent and fortune, what need do I have for opportunities? Xishuan Fairy, clearly exasperated by his attitude, massaged her temples and said, I have arranged an opportunity for you. If you had

made contributions in the Myriad Demon Realm, becoming a core disciple would have been within easy reach. Unfortunately, you gave it up. Moreover, even I cannot see through the great of the cultivation technique you practice. I can't help you with your cultivation technique, but how about this, would you like to have your own innate spiritual energy cave dwelling? Aside from lightning spiritual energy, it contains other types of spiritual energy as well. Nevertheless, Han Ju excitedly asked, where is it? It's near the Jade Pure Sect. However, you need to rank in the top three in the Inner

Sect competition to get it. Hearing about the competition, Han Ju started to have second thoughts. The Inner Sect competition, it won't be dangerous, right? Seeing his timid appearance, Xishuan Fairy was so annoyed she felt like punching him. Are you afraid of a mere competition? It won't kill you. Han Ju then asked, Master, will there be Golden Core or above participants in the competition? Xishuan Fairy replied irritably, do you think Golden Core Realm cultivators are as common as cabbages? Those who reach that level either become core disciples or elders, stewards. Hearing that no one above Golden

Core would participate, Han Ju immediately changed his tune. I'll gladly accept that innate cave dwelling. With eight years until the Inner Sect examination, Han Ju planned to use this time to cultivate diligently. He immediately went to the Wind Spirit Pool, aiming to bring all six types of spiritual roots to the ninth level of the Foundation establishment stage, before the examination. Just then, he noticed a group of people bullying someone nearby. Seeing his melon, Han Ju thought, I better just focus on my cultivation. But suddenly, the system sent a notification. Innate Destiny detected. Would you like

to view their origin? Han Ju was startled. The Innate Destiny individual was the one being bullied. His name is Zhou Fan, a reincarnation of a great vehicle cultivator. Born in a mundane town, he and his childhood friend were discovered by the Jade Pure Sect to have spiritual roots. Deep within his soul, he harbors a spiritual treasure that was severely damaged while protecting him. The treasure itself, the spiritual treasure, unconsciously absorbs spiritual energy during Zhou Fan's cultivation, resulting in his extremely slow cultivation speed. Currently, the spiritual treasure is about to be successfully repaired. Han Ju was

dumbfounded. Great vehicle realm? That's really something. This would make him the protagonist in a novel. He was conflicted. He's destined to be the main character. Helping him would surely lift me to great heights. No! How many side characters have been doomed by growing main characters? Better not stir trouble. He then dismissed the idea of helping. Becoming stronger through my own cultivation is the true path. Zhou Fan, trust in your destiny. Time flew, and eight years passed. Except for his water and earth spiritual roots, which were at the 8th level, all others had reached the 9th

level of the foundation establishment stage. Just after leaving the spirit pool, he saw Zhou Fan, who was confessing to a girl, but unsurprisingly got friendzoned. Han Ju was about to walk past when Zhou Fan stopped him. I am Zhou Fan from Thunder Peak. I've often heard M.O.'s senior brother mention you, saying you will surely become a great cultivator of the Jade Pure sect in the future. I've always wanted to meet you. Just when Han Ju thought Zhou Fan was about to challenge him to a duel, Zhou Fan suddenly knelt down. I've heard you're quite popular

with the ladies. How should I pursue the one I love? Han Ju was completely baffled, and then said, Brother Zhou, you should let go of everything. How can a cultivator be mired in romantic affairs? What are women in comparison to the Great Tao? If you attain the Tao, everything will gravitate towards you, and you will naturally get whatever you desire. Have you ever seen me getting close to women? This step requires your own understanding of your heart and nature. Zhou Fan, looking at Han Ju as if you were a deity, felt a slight stir in

his heart, and immediately his goodwill towards Han Ju increased to one star. Han Ju thought to himself, Fool, the most important thing is appearance. Can your looks compare to mine? When Han Ju returned to Jade Seclusion Peak and heard the bell summoning all disciples again, he met the eldest brother on his way to the main hall. The eldest brother suddenly asked, Han Ju, do you know a woman named Xing Hongxian? Han Ju was shocked. How does he know about her? The eldest brother continued, In these years, I follow the sect leader, lurking in the Myriad

Demon Realm, engaged in open and covert battles with the Demon Cult. We've always had intelligence provided by a traitor from the Demon Cult. It was this intelligence that made the sect leader pretend to leave the Jade Pure Sect when, in reality, he was ambushing in the Myriad Demon Realm. This traitor from the Demon Cult is Xing Hongxian. As a child, she was forced to take poison and threatened to act as a spy in the Jade Pure Sect. Xing Hongxian has always harbored hatred towards the Demon Cult, and even attempted to find an antidote in the

outer sect. Later, Xing Hongxian was saved by the sect leader, who exceptionally allowed her to become an inner sect disciple. Now, Xing Hongxian is at the main peak, cultivating under Master Jingxiu, the sect leader's junior sister. We encountered Miss Xing earlier, and she was inquiring about someone named Han Ju, a servant who was an alchemist. It just so happens that we have a disciple named Han Ju in our Jade Seclusion Peak. Junior brother. What a coincidence, right? Han Ju felt awkward, unsure of how to respond. That past, although unpleasant, had to be acknowledged reluctantly. I

am the Han Ju she knows. I had no choice at the time. To Han Ju's surprise, the eldest brother warmly grasped him. Don't worry, I understand. I just didn't expect your talent to be so exceptional. Han Ju finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he opened Xing Hongxian's panel. I don't deserve so much goodwill. Just for being devoted, I wish you a future free of hardships. When everyone gathered in the Great Hall, Xixuan Ferry announced, the inner sect examination is about to begin. Each peak must send at least ten people. Who wishes to participate? Immediately,

almost everyone eagerly volunteered. Seeing almost everyone sign up, Han Ju thought, with everyone so enthusiastic, I should show some support to avoid seeming out of place. However, Xixuan Ferry chose Han Ju first, causing everyone to look at him in surprise. Han Ju panicked. No, not, master. I didn't actually raise my hand. But Xixuan Ferry didn't even look at him, continuing to select other disciples for the competition. After the selection was completed, Xixuan Ferry once again kept Han Ju behind alone. Your cultivation has improved again. I really underestimated you. Even with cultivating three types of spiritual

roots, your breakthrough speed remains the fastest in the Jade Pure sect. Han Ju modestly responded, it's all thanks to the master's excellent guidance. Master is the impressive one. I don't recall teaching you anything. Your cultivation technique and swordsmanship are excellent, but are not the supreme techniques of the Jade Pure sect. You must have had another master before. I've observed you since you joined the sect. You've been diligently cultivating without any intention to harm the sect. Others have testified that you were born in the outer sect, which indicates you encountered an opportunity in your youth. Everyone

has their own fortunes, and I'm not one to pry. I mention this only to let you know that you can be at ease during the inner sect examination. No one will trouble you over these matters. To avoid unnecessary complications, from today onwards, you are my direct disciple. Han Ju was startled, but at this moment, the system awarded him for becoming a direct disciple with the nine dragons' demon-subduing seal. Overjoyed, Han Ju said. Thank you, Master. Long live the Master. After returning to his cave dwelling, Han Ju began to learn the nine dragons' demon-subduing seal. This

third magical technique, akin to a palm technique, could produce different effects with different attributes of spiritual power, adding another ace to Han Ju's hand. However, he soon began to worry about the great destructive power of these techniques. Then, Chang Yu'er came to Han Ju's cave and took him to see the announcement board. The examination tomorrow will involve one-on-one battles across the peaks until the top ten are decided. The battles will move to the inner sect city for the final showdown, with the whole sect watching. Han Ju was relieved to learn that not many would watch

the fights until the top ten were decided. I don't want to attract too much attention. As Han Ju was about to leave, Xing Hongxian suddenly appeared behind him. Husband, Han Ju hastily took a step back. Miss, you can't just call someone that. Xing Hongxian covered her mouth and chuckled. Didn't we agree on this back in the outer sect? Han Ju was speechless. That was just acting to avoid conflict. If I refused you, I was afraid you would kill me. It's okay. Xing Hongxian laughed, pulling out a bottle of elixir. This is the jade purity pill.

I don't really use it much. It's perfect for you. Without allowing Han Ju to refuse, Xing Hongxian placed the elixir in his hand. Just accept it. I get these elixirs regularly. My talents are average, but if you need anything later, husband, I will do my best to help you. After speaking, she flew away on her sword. Han Ju held the elixir in his hand, standing there dazed for a long time. The scene shifts to a dark hall, where Xing Hongxian is sitting opposite Master Jingxiu. You gave that young man the jade purity pill. Do you

have any regrets? I don't regret it. I've fallen hard. Foolish. Just because he has a pretty face? Isn't that enough? I don't see the value in providing such strong support. His talent is also exceptional. When I met him, he hadn't begun cultivating yet. According to the sect leader, he's now at the ninth level of the foundation establishment realm. How strange. With such talent. Why haven't I heard of him over the years? The sect leader said he's very low profile, always busy with closed-door cultivation. The sect leader even wanted to offer him opportunities, but he refused,

citing fear of death. Hearing this, Master Jingxiu smiled slightly. Interesting. It seems I also need to pay more attention to him. On the day of the competition, when Han Ju arrived at the venue, he was stunned. I didn't expect so many spectators. How am I supposed to act now? Then the system presented Han Ju with two options. The Jade Pure Sect Intersect Examination is about to begin. You have the following options. 1. Wing conspicuously, becoming famous throughout the Jade Pure Sect, and receive a thousand high-quality spirit stones. 2. Win the top three positions in a

low-key manner, minimizing impact, and receive one spiritual treasure. Seeing the second option offering a spiritual treasure as a reward, Han Ju immediately chose it with joy, simultaneously thinking to himself, this system really gets me. It seems like there's always a low-key option for every mission, probably related to the path of development I chose initially. He was confident. With this approach, I can remain undefeated in the world. Soon the competition began. Ma Fu Chu and his sister also came to watch Han Ju's match. However, on the stage, Han Ju was clumsily dodging the opponent's attacks, while

his opponent from Heavenly Execution Peak became more excited as the fight progressed. The audience found the fight dull and started leaving for other matches. Only Ma Fu Chu knew Han Ju was feigning weakness, noticing that the spectators' stands were nearly empty and the judges were dozing off. Han Ju thought, my chance has arrived. With a sly smile, Han Ju moved behind his opponent, and in the next second, his opponent was sent flying out of the ring. The loud impact woke the judges, who then realized the fight was over, with Han Ju as the victor. Afterward,

Han Ju used the same tactic, waiting until there were almost no spectators before swiftly defeating his opponents, successfully entering the top ten. While cultivating one day, Han Ju sensed something was amiss. The leaves weren't rustling, but he could hear the wind. Suddenly, streaks of dark energy appear out of nowhere, flying towards him. Without a word, Han Ju responded with a nine-dragon's demon-subduing seal, seeing the dark energy trying to flee. Han Ju, as if the nine-dragon's demon-subduing seal cost him nothing, chased the dark shadow, relentlessly attacking. Suddenly, a wail came from the shadow. Wait! Stop! Halt!

I am a supreme elder of the Jade Pure Sect. How can the Jade Pure Sect have someone like you who disrespects their elders so blatantly? Han Ju was stunned for a moment, seeing the old man continue to rage. I was just passing by, and you? You greet me with your most powerful attacks. Han Ju was speechless. Senior, in the dead of night, your actions are suspicious. What are you trying to do? The divine ability I cultivate naturally acts this way. Soul projection. Do you understand? However, the old man was visibly frightened. What in the world

was that spell you used? It almost annihilated my spirit. Are inner sect disciples these days also intense? Han Ju was about to report the incident to his master when the old man hurriedly stopped him. Don't! Don't! Don't tell her! I apologize. Actually, your master is my disciple, and so is the current sect leader. He then gave a sly smile. Young man, you have an extraordinary physique. How about inheriting my mantle? The unparalleled technique. Heavenly strong golden body. Only I and the sect leader and the entire Jade Pure sect know it. Upon seeing the old man's

secret manual, Han Ju didn't think twice before refusing. I almost killed the old man just now. How could he suddenly be so benevolent? He must be trying to trick me. Afterwards, Han Ju told Xi Xuan Ferry about the incident. Xi Xuan Ferry was speechless. That old troublemaker is at it again. By the way, master, is the heavenly strong golden body powerful? That senior wanted to teach it to me. Xi Xuan Ferry's face turned red. It's very powerful. This is arguably the strongest technique in the Jade Pure sect. But before practicing it, one must sever the

human root. What's the human root? The essence of a man. Hearing this, Han Ju was speechless. Does that mean the sect leader and the supreme elder are? Xi Xuan Ferry coughed lightly. This matter must not be spread. Leaving the meeting, Han Ju was still in shock for a long time. Those are some extreme measures. Soon, it was the day of the inner sect examination for the top ten. Looking at the surging crowd, Han Ju thought to himself. It's going to be hard to play it down this time. Should I just go for a quick victory?

At that moment, Chan Yue also came over with an entire cheerleading squad to support Han Ju. Suddenly, Han Ju felt a gaze on him. Turning around, he saw Zhou Fan staring at him intently, his eyes filled with a fighting spirit. Just then, Ma Zhu also came over to cheer for Han Ju. Brother Han, I believe in you. You'll definitely take first place. Chan Yue immediately became wary of Ma Zhu. Who are you? None of your business. I suggest you grow up a bit more, or Han Ju, your brother, might end up in jail. A strong

tension instantly erupted between the two women. Xing Hongxian also approached. Husband, this was like a spark hitting the earth. How dare you call him husband? I'm happy to. The air thickened with tension among the three women. This is a disaster. Finally, the examination officially began. The first match was Han Ju against Zhou Fan. Zhou Fan angrily asked, Han Ju, you said you never got close to women. Han Ju helplessly replied, I can't help it. What else can I do? I'm also desperate. At that moment, Zhou Fan raised his left hand, revealing a black small bell

in his palm, ominously mysterious. It was indeed Zhou Fan's innate spiritual treasure. Brother Han, go all out. Please. Don't hold back. Brother Han, you first. Seeing Zhou Fan so confident, Han Ju took the match seriously. Three sword energies appeared around him. Zhou Fan's eyes flashed purple, and spiritual energy enveloped him, showcasing the skill granted by his spiritual treasure, absolute defense. Han Ju wasted no words. His sword energies shot towards Zhou Fan like lightning. To everyone's shock, Zhou Fan's prized skill was shattered by Han Ju's strike, sending him flying like a kite without a string. Everyone

was bewildered. Is it over already? Soon the top five were decided. The next step was to draw lots for the matchups, with the red lot getting a buy directly into the top three. Han Ju casually drew a lot, and ended up with the buy. I have to say, this supreme luck of mine is no joke. At this moment, Han Ju remembered that being in the top three meant he could choose an innate cave dwelling. Now that I'm already in the top three, doesn't that mean I can? After a series of intense battles, the top three

were finally decided. Just as an elder was about to announce the rules for the final round, Han Ju immediately conceded. I exhausted my spiritual power to win quickly in the previous match and have it recovered. I'm willing to take third place. The elder looked deeply at Han Ju, then announced that Han Ju had secured the third place. At this moment, Han Ju also received his system reward, the Golden Cicada Mystical God Robe, a seventh grade spiritual treasure that could automatically defend against an enemy's attack, withstanding a strike from a spirit transformation cultivator at its maximum

if spiritual power is injected into it. Its defensive power will be enhanced. Han Ju was immediately thrilled to the point of drooling. When the examination ended, the Daolei elder took the top three to the main peak hall. At that time, True Person Jing Su came in front of him, saying, as a reward, the three innate cave mansions will be chosen by the first place first. With a stretch of her right hand, three light spheres flew out immediately, each innate cave mansion landing on the edge of the mountains outside Jade Creek's eighteen peaks. These light spheres

from the cave mansions will guide and lead you. After the first two made their selections, a white light sphere remained. The energy attribute of this mansion is quite mixed, but its concentration of spiritual energy is comparable to a spirit pool. Han Ju saw this and could hardly contain his joy. This is most suitable for my cultivation with six spiritual roots. Soon, Han Ju followed the light sphere to his cave mansion. He couldn't wait to take out the Golden Cicada Mystical God Robe and immediately put it on. Once worn, it was like the emperor's new clothes,

completely invisible. But Han Ju felt a sense of security like never before. Half a month passed in this manner. One day, Xiu Fan and Mafuchu came to the outside of Han Ju's cave mansion. Xiu Fan couldn't help but wonder, is this really Han Ju's mansion? Mafuchu pointed to a few large characters outside the cave. A moment of patience leads to a vast sky and ocean. This was undoubtedly Han Ju's mansion at a glance. When Han Ju inside heard Mafuchu's voice, he immediately came to the entrance. What brings my two brothers here? Mafuchu expressed, recently, the

sect issued many missions regarding the Azure Nether Demon sect. Are you interested in joining us? Would you like to take down a branch of the Azure Nether Demon sect? I've already investigated. That branch has many spiritual pills and wonderful medicines, sure to aid in your cultivation. However, Han Ju directly refused without a second thought. Thank you for your kindness, but I do not wish to leave at the moment. I need to go into seclusion to break through. I wish you both a future as splendid as Brocade. Hearing this, Mafuchu immediately said, if you do the

mission with us, the Tribulation Crossing Pill we obtain will be given to you first. Han Ju suddenly stopped in his tracks. Mafuchu thought this had moved him. Indeed, to invite Han Ju, we must speak of cultivation. Cultivation not only requires opportunities, but also a stepping stone. Without a stepping stone, one cannot go far. He is not reconciled. The look in his eyes says it all. However, he was actually looking at the choices given to him by the system. You have received an invitation from your fellow disciples. Facing fame and gain, you have the following choices.

1. Agree with them, go together to achieve merits, and obtain a low-grade spirit stone. 2. 3. Cultivate Loki, and obtain a magical tool. Seeing these options, Han Ju was speechless. Is there even a choice? He immediately refused their invitation. Two years later, Han Ju finally perfected his Six Series spiritual power, and began to break through to the Golden Core. It is said that only two or three out of every ten Foundation establishment cultivators succeed in breaking through. Not because the Heavenly Tribulation is terribly frightening, but because of the inner demons. It is rumored that inner

demons are so terrifying that even immortals fear them. But when the inner demon encountered Han Ju, it regretted being born. It kept tempting Han Ju. You are already strong enough. No need to hide anymore. Show the world your strength. Whether you aspire to be utterly benevolent and reach sainthood, or to overturn all beings and make unilateral decisions for all ages, it depends on your single thought. Who knew that after hearing this, Han Ju actually asked, is that all? Then, with a wave of his hand, he eliminated the inner demon. Next, he just needed to concentrate

on facing the Heavenly Tribulation. Ten days later, Han Ju successfully entered the Golden Core realm. The system rewarded Han Ju with a supreme magical sword, the Qilin Sword. This sword, made from the sinews and bones of a Qilin, contains the soul of a Qilin and has the effect of driving away evil. He also obtained a divine ability, Six Paths Soul Absorption. However, what made Han Ju happiest was that his lifespan had increased again. He immediately set a small goal for himself, to break through to the nascent soul within a hundred years. He then decided to

relax and check his friend's circle, only to be shocked by what he saw. He found out that sect leader Li Qingzi had been attacked by demon cultivators multiple times. The sect leader has been attacked by the demon cult so many times, staying in the Jade Pure sect might not be safe. Could it be that the Azure Nether Demon sect has attacked the Jade Pure sect? I wonder how my master is doing. It's best to go and reassure her. So, he immediately set off towards the Great Hall of Jade Seclusion Peak. However, along the way, the

Jade Pure sect was in turmoil, with smoke signals of distress everywhere, and countless injured. Han Ju hurriedly went to the Great Hall to pay respects to Xishuan Fairy. Xishuan Fairy narrowed her eyes. You still know to come back? I thought you had already betrayed the sect. Han Ju was embarrassed. Just as he was about to explain, Xishuan Fairy continued. The Jade Pure sect is about to face an unprecedented disaster. I will give you a chance. You can leave the Jade Pure sect directly. Hearing this, Han Ju was shocked. At the same time, he received a

choice from the system. The sect leader of the Jade Pure sect is in danger, with life and death uncertain. You have the following choices. 1. Leave the Jade Pure sect and wander the world of cultivation, and receive an energy-gathering pill. 2. Stay in the Jade Pure sect until it is destroyed, or the Azure Nether Demon sect gives up targeting the Jade Pure sect and receive a magical tool and a spell manual. He subconsciously wanted to choose the first option, then slowly asked. What about you, Master? Xishuan Fairy remained calm. I will live or die together

with the Jade Pure sect. In that case, then I, as your disciple, will also live or die with my master. At this moment, Xishuan Fairy's favorability towards Han Ju increased to three stars. Han Ju suddenly had a thought. Wouldn't it be possible to develop into a cultivation partner if this goes up by another star? Xishuan Fairy was taken aback. Aren't you afraid of death? Everyone dies, either as light as a feather or as heavy as mount. I pursue immortality, but I don't want to abandon my master. Meanwhile, he thought to himself. Unless I encounter an

irresistible enemy, I would definitely prioritize my own life. But I haven't taught you much. You don't need to do this. No, although you haven't taught me directly. Your kindness is profound. Master has fought for opportunities for me several times and helped me solve some potential troubles. I keep all these in my heart. These words were truly from Han Ju's heart. In this life, Xishuan Fairy is the person who has been the kindest to me. Seeing Han Ju's heartfelt words, Xishuan Fairy couldn't help but smile. Then she asked. Have you encountered any difficulties in your cultivation

recently? You can cultivate with me like Chang Yue. Han Ju weakly replied. No, there's no need to trouble master. Hearing this, Xishuan Fairy was speechless. Stinky boy, you actually don't want my guidance. After Han Ju left, Xishuan Fairy handed a storage bag to Chang Yue. Help your junior brother as I instructed. Everything is in this storage pouch. When Han Ju returned to his cave mansion, he found Chang Yue there. It turned out Xishuan Fairy had asked her to help arrange Han Ju's cave mansion. A formation was set up at the entrance to conceal the cave

mouth. If someone tries to forcefully enter, they will be trapped in an illusion and unable to extricate themselves. Also, spiritual herbs were planted inside the cave to amplify the surrounding spiritual energy. Han Ju was so excited that he quickly thanked his senior sister and master. No need for thanks. How about I move in after a while to keep you company? Han Ju immediately swallowed nervously and cautiously said. Senior sister, are you planning to mooch off the spiritual energy in my cave mansion? Chang Yue immediately became so angry that she trembled all over. Cultivation. All you

know is cultivation. Get lost. Thus, Han Ju holed up in his cave mansion for another five years. Now at the third level of the Golden Core Realm. One day, he was scrolling through his friend's circle and noticed that Ma Fu Qiu and Zhou Fan had also made it to the list. Your friends Ma Fu Qiu and Zhou Fan were attacked by demon cultivators. He once again felt fortunate that he had not joined them back then. Just then, the system suddenly alerted. Detected an innate destiny individual. Han Ju immediately checked the history. This person, named Chen

San Tian, was a born demon embryo. Now a main core disciple of the Azure Nether Demon Sect. At this moment, outside Han Ju's cave mansion, a man in black looked at the inscription by Han Ju. A moment of patience leads to a vast sky and ocean. Ridiculous. People of the Jade Pure Sect really are cowards. He wondered, how can there be such big characters in this wilderness? Could it be a cave mansion? But he couldn't find any door. At that moment, Han Ju, at the entrance of the cave mansion, heard Chen San Tian calling him

a coward. Furious, veins popping on his body. After confirming that the visitor was alone, he sternly said, good, you're done. As Chen San Tian suddenly sensed a murderous aura. Before he could react, three sword energies, like lightning, pierced through Chen San Tian's body. Sending him flying dozens of meters away like a sandbag. With three more sword shadows hovering above his head. Terrified, Chen San Tian screamed, Elder, please stop. What are you doing at the Jade Pure Sect? It's all a misunderstanding. Elder, I was just passing by here. Chen San Tian was panicking internally. I had

investigated and found no such powerful sword cultivator elder in the Jade Pure Sect. Could this person be the Jade Pure Sect's supreme elder? Han Ju, appearing behind Chen San Tian at some unknown time, said, Chen San Tian, innate demon embryo, a major disciple of the Azure Nether Demon Sect. If I hand you over to the Jade Pure Sect, what do you think your fate would be? Chen San Tian's heart was in turmoil. How does he know my background? Chen San Tian quickly turned around to beg Han Ju for mercy. But when he saw Han Ju

was so young and only at the ninth level of Foundation establishment. Could it be he is the disciple of the elder? Han Ju was hesitating whether to kill him or capture him. If the sect leader has been captured, could I use him as a bargaining chip for exchange? Unbeknownst to him, Chen San Tian suddenly darted behind Han Ju, putting a knife to Han Ju's neck and shouted back towards the cave mansion. Elder, let me leave. Otherwise, I will kill your disciple. Han Ju was instantly speechless. Well, just to interrupt, I don't have any disciples. Chen

San Tian immediately dropped the sword in his hand and knelt down abruptly, sweating profusely. Elder, I was just joking. Meanwhile, cursing in his heart, Elder at the ninth layer of the Foundation establishment realm. Who would believe that? It must be a trick to deceive the eyes. To be able to suppress me directly and even know my background. This elder must be a highly skilled person. Escaping is impossible. Han Ju, speechless. A major disciple of the demon cult. Is this it? Is he too weak? Or is the three pure shadow sword too strong? Then Han Ju

walked towards the cave. You, come with me. Han Ju originally wanted to hand him over to his master, knowing that he would surely try to escape desperately. But I only know how to kill. I don't have the power to suppress him. Thinking this, Han Ju suddenly asked Chen San Tian to strike him with all his might with a sword. Chen San Tian immediately trembled. This elder isn't looking for a reason to kill me. Is he? Terrified to the point of deformation. Elder, I know I was wrong. I truly realize my mistake. Come on, give it

a try. It'll prevent you from always thinking about ambushing me. Chen San Tian was scared to tears. Convinced it was another trap set for him. Han Ju, speechless. Am I that scary? This major disciple of the demon cult is really too cowardly. He then instructed, Fine, from today on, you'll stay here. You'll plant spiritual herbs and clean for me. Of course, you can also cultivate. A year passed, and Chen San Tian saw that Han Ju was always cultivating and never left. He thought, the elder is too devoted to cultivation, never leaving. It's been a year

staying here. Continuing like this will delay the transmission of information. As the main core disciple, not returning for so long, the elders and my master in the sect must be worried. What should I do? Should I betray him? Immediately, he gathered spiritual energy in his hand and launched a sneak attack on Han Ju. Han Ju sensed something off and simply turned his head to look. Suddenly, the atmosphere changed. Chen San Tian hurriedly explained, Sorry for the disturbance. There was a mosquito. I'll go clean the cave now. The elder should get more sunlight. The system alerted

that Chen San Tian's hatred for Han Ju had grown to four stars. Han Ju was speechless. I've never tortured him in this past year, and now the hatred has even escalated to a point of no return. This is really troublesome. Meanwhile, Chen San Tian was thinking, Once I escape, I must avenge the debts of this year. Suddenly, he widened his eyes in shock. A hole the size of a human head appeared in Chen San Tian's chest. The work of Han Ju's attack. I gave you a chance, and you wasted it. Being obedient at least had

the value of being a bargaining chip. Now, it's unnecessary. Han Ju also started to feel a headache, thinking about the cliche in novels. Kill the minion, and the boss comes. Kill the boss, and an even bigger boss comes. Sure enough, a dark energy slowly drifted out from Chen San Tian's body, and a figure emerged from the dark energy. Very well. You killed my beloved disciple. You all will die. Do you dare to state your name? I'm Loki. And you? As your nether demon sect. Zhang Kun Mo. Loki, I will remember you. Wait for your death.

After saying this, he dissipated into thin air. At this moment, the system alerted. Zhang Kun Mo has developed hatred towards you. Current hatred level, five stars. Han Ju was internally panicking. Five stars? Damn, that's high. Then, Han Ju opened the relationship list. Nascent soul realm level eight. Not yet at spirit transformation. I should still be able to handle him. Still, better contact the sect to send someone over to clean up. Eight years after Han Ju killed Chen San Tian, Xing Hong Xian came to Han Ju's cave dwelling one day. Is my husband here? When Han

Ju saw Xing Hong Xian, he was so frightened that he twisted all over. Forget about the senior sister. How could she too? Is the formation just for show? Miss Xing, what brings you here? Soon, Xing Hong Xian made her purpose clear, taking out dozens of jade purity pills and generously said, these are the jade purity pills I've saved up over the years. Feel free to use them. Han Ju's expression softened. You should take them back. I don't need them anymore. Xing Hong Xian's smile froze, and then her expression changed drastically. Could it be that you've

already... Han Ju seriously said, don't spread the word about my breakthrough. Miss Xing, if you want to be my cultivation partner, you must cultivate diligently. Otherwise, centuries later, I will become an immortal and you will turn into bones. Your deep affection will then be a punishment to me. Upon hearing this, Xing Hong Xian couldn't help but calm down. You're right. I can't be a drag on you. My husband, focus on your cultivation. I will go and get you elixirs suitable for the Golden Core Realm. Han Ju was dumbfounded upon hearing this. That's not what I

meant. At this time, in a dark hall within the headquarters of the Azure Nether Demon Sect, the sect leader Duan Tong Tian was discussing with seven elders about attacking the Jade Pure Sect. They had been contending with Li Qingzi for decades. Li Qingzi intentionally did not return to the Jade Pure Sect, drawing most of their attention. Someone suggested attacking the Jade Pure Sect directly, and immediately everyone agreed, except Duan Tong Tian, who did not speak for a long time. After everyone quieted down, he slowly said, I am about to undergo spirit transformation. If successful, attacking

the Jade Pure Sect will almost be guaranteed. Upon hearing this, all the elders looked at him in shock. Do you have confidence, sect leader? For this, I have prepared for decades. I am 90% confident. Just wait another 30 years. Hearing this, everyone burst into excited cheers. Another 10 years passed, and Han Ju had cultivated his thunder and wind spiritual roots to the ninth level of the Golden Core. He seemed to see the nascent soul stage beckoning him, completely immersed in this joyous time, unable to extricate himself. Suddenly, Chan Yue appeared beside Han Ju out of

nowhere, scaring him with her ability to come and go without a trace. Senior sister, please, give my cave some face. The formation was set up by me. Naturally, I know how to get in. Chan Yue explained, I came to bring you some heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Planting them by the pond can make the spiritual energy in your cave dwelling even richer. It might even become the cave dwelling with the best spiritual energy in the Jade Pure Sect. Han Ju immediately expressed his gratitude to his senior sister. Chan Yue smiled and said, don't thank me.

These were rewards from our master. I'm just doing some physical work. Han Ju couldn't help but exclaim, Master, you're the best. At this time, Chan Yue started chatting with Han Ju about the things that had happened at Jade Seclusion Peak over the years. In the past few years, several new disciples have joined Jade Seclusion Peak. The disciple ranked after you, Brother Tai, passed away two years ago. He died a natural death. Upon learning that Old Tai had passed away two years ago, Han Ju was momentarily stunned. Old Tai is gone? This disciple Tai had poor

aptitude and died when his lifespan ran out. According to his servant, he wanted to see you before he died. But what for? We'll never know. Hearing this news, Han Ju's expression became complicated. In the past, he quite disliked Old Tai. But looking back now, Old Tai had never harmed him and could even be said to have taken care of him. Now, that dislike has vanished, replaced with a touch of melancholy. Senior sister, you must control your cultivation well. If one day you're not here, I really wouldn't know what to do. Upon hearing this, Chan Yue

smiled brightly. Silly junior brother, I thought you didn't care about me at all in your heart. After chatting for a while, Chan Yue said, the spiritual herbs are all set up. It's time for your senior sister to go back to her cultivation. I'll strive to accompany my junior brother on the path of cultivation for a longer journey. Although Chan Yue was joking, these words sounded like heartfelt truths to Han Ju. He remained silent for a long time, then wrote two characters on the cave wall, Old Tai. I hope you're born into a good family in

your next life. Another decade or so passed, and Han Ju had reached the ninth level of the Golden Core in all but his earth and with spiritual roots. On his 100th birthday, the system unlocked a new feature for him. Congratulations on reaching 100 years old. The simulation trial function has been opened. You can set the cultivation level and strength tier of your opponent for simulated combat. It's also possible to scan all beings within 100 miles and copy their strength for battle. The results of the battle won't affect your physical body or mental state in reality.

Han Ju was overjoyed. This is simply divine. I've always been unclear about my own strength. Now I can finally test it. Immediately, Han Ju carried out a simulation trial. The next second, he was in a space and soon heard the system's voice. You can choose someone from your interpersonal relationships as the model for your opponent's strength. He immediately chose the strongest person he knew, sect leader Li Qingzi. The next second, someone who looked exactly like the sect leader appeared before Han Ju. Before Han Ju could react, Li Qingzi launched an attack. Fortunately, Han Ju used

the seven-fold illusion step in time to dodge. Then he went all out and used the three pure shadows sword technique against Li Qingzi. However, when the smoke cleared, Li Qingzi was unharmed and covered in a golden color. Using the unique skill, Heavenly Strong Golden Body, Han Ju marveled at how powerful this skill was. As Li Qingzi attacked again, Han Ju threw a nine-dragons-demons-abduing seal at him, which Li Qingzi broke with a punch. Han Ju kept switching among six types of spiritual power, hitting Li Qingzi with one nine-dragons-demons-abduing seal after another. Soon, Li Qingzi was sent

flying by the seals. Han Ju was quite surprised. The nine-dragons-demons-abduing seal is indeed not simple. It pushed the sect leader to this extent. Currently, I'm barely managing against the eighth level of the nascent soul realm. I can only repel, not defeat. Just then, the system popped up a prompt. Do you want to adjust the opponent's strength? Han Ju looked at the adjustable range. This simulation trial is getting more and more interesting. At this time, inside the main hall of the Jade Pure Sect's main peak, the sect leader and all the elders were gathered. Every person's

face showed a grave expression. Li Qingzi spoke in a deep voice. Duan Tongtian successfully underwent tribulation crossing last month and has been consolidating his spirit transformation cultivation level. Meanwhile, I have already sought help from the various factions of the righteous path, but none have responded. It would be great if Ancestor were here. He is at the mid-stage of the spirit transformation realm, but he has been away for many years and cannot be found. So, it will be up to me and the supreme elder to deal with Duan Tongtian. Upon hearing this, the elders tried to

dissuade him. Brother, don't. Li Qingzi said firmly. There's no other way. With your current levels of cultivation, none of you would make a difference, not to mention Duan Tongtian. You can't even break through my heavenly strong golden body, and you are very aware of this. The supreme elder and I will confront Duan Tongtian, my heavenly strong golden body, as the strongest technique of the jade pure set. I hope can withstand a battle against him. Meanwhile, after Han Zhu's continuous attempts, he was now able to break through Li Qingzi's heavenly strong golden body at the nascent

soul fifth level. However, to an outsider, Han Zhu appeared to be dozing off. Another 10 years passed, and Han Zhu finally cultivated all his spiritual roots to the ninth level of the golden core, reaching great perfection. Today, he officially began his breakthrough to the nascent soul stage. Just as Han Zhu started his tribulation crossing, Chang'e was running towards him in a panic. It turned out that an invasion by the demonic sect was imminent. She wanted to inform Han Zhu and take him to the inner sect for temporary shelter. But from afar, she saw that Han

Zhu was undergoing tribulation crossing, mistakenly thinking that he was breaking through to the golden core stage. She then thought, if the azure nether demon sect attacks from this direction, wouldn't that interrupt his tribulation crossing, forcibly interrupting it is a major taboo of tribulation crossing. My junior brother could be backlash and harmed. No, as his senior sister, I must protect him. With my strength, it's difficult to protect my junior brother. So, when junior brother wakes up, I'll immediately take him back to the inner sect to hide. Who made me fall for you? I'll protect you for

now. 10 days later, the demonic sect's army finally attacked the Jade Pure sect. Chang'e discovered they were attacking from a different direction. They just happened to avoid junior brother's cave dwelling. If I were to take him to the inner sect now, it would actually harm him. This is for the best. As long as junior brother stays in his cave dwelling, he will be safe. Sorry, I have to go ahead to assist our master and swear to share life and death. Junior brother, don't come back. After an unknown amount of time, Hanju finally broke through to

the nascent soul realm. He discovered that even the six realms of reincarnation technique had undergone a transformation. All spiritual roots merged and the six types of spiritual power unified into a new and powerful spiritual energy. The six paths spiritual power could now directly absorb spiritual power from the heavens and earth without the need to absorb specific spiritual power from corresponding spiritual roots for cultivation. Cultivating solely with the six paths spiritual power became more efficient than before. The system also sent a prompt, congratulations on your breakthrough to the nascent soul realm and receiving a divine ability

reward. However, what excited Hanju the most was that his lifespan had increased to 998 years. You have chosen the path of a sword cultivator. Congratulations on obtaining the sword Tao Divine Ability, heaven punishing demon godsword. But that wasn't the end. The system sent another prompt. Your sect, Jade Pure sect, is currently under attack by the Azure Nether Demon sect. The strongest in the Jade Pure sect, Azure Nether Demon sect leader Duan Tongtian, spirit transformation realm level one, has been detected. Would you like to start the simulation trial immediately? Hanju was about to refuse instinctively, but

then calmed down. I could kill nascent soul cultivators when I was at the golden core realm. Now, I should have the strength to fight against spirit transformation. He then started the simulation trial. At this time, on the main peak of the Jade Pure sect, a demonic sect elder, Zhang Kunmo, was continuously shouting the name Loki. Loki, come out and face your death. Not showing yourself? Have you run away early? Ha, the people of the Jade Pure sect are indeed a bunch of trash. All disciples, hear my command. Burn everything, kill everyone, loot everything. If we

can't find Loki, we'll use the Jade Pure sect disciples to commemorate the spirit of my disciple in heaven. On the other side, just one minute had passed, and Hanju successfully finished the trial. He was dumbfounded. Duan Tongtian, that's it? On the main peak of the Jade Pure sect, Li Qingzi and the supreme elder were already at their limit under Duan Tongtian's oppressive force. But for the sake of the Jade Pure sect, they had to fight. Duan Tongtian looked down on them, laughing wildly. Just kneel and beg for mercy, and maybe I'll let you suffer less.

Li Qingzi responded with hatred. The disciples of the Jade Pure sect would rather die than submit to the demon path. After saying that, he mustered his last bit of strength to attack Duan Tongtian, but was sent flying back like a cannonball the next second. The supreme elder sighed, it's no use. The skull behind him is an innate black magnet. Our spiritual power is absorbed by it and directly neutralized. With that treasure, this demon can exhaust us to death. Not far away, Xishuan Ferry sighed. The Jade Pure sect is finished after all. Xishuan Ferry couldn't help

but think of Hanju. That brat is probably still in seclusion. I hope no one finds his cave dwelling. And Chang'e, I'm sorry. As your master, I can't protect you. I have to go ahead of you. At that moment, by the cliff's edge, Hanju was cornered by members of the demonic sect. To preserve her innocence, she resolutely jumped off the cliff. Her spiritual power had already been depleted, and she couldn't even manage to fly with her sword. She slowly closed her eyes, and the last thing she thought about was that man. If I had cultivated as

diligently as him, I wouldn't be in this situation now. I wonder if I'll meet him again in my next life. But just then, a familiar voice sounded in her ears. She suddenly opened her eyes and found that the man she had been thinking of was holding her, while those from the demonic sect behind them had all been turned into mincemeat. Maju was puzzled. Are we dead? Did we go to heaven? Soon, Hanju found Mufuchu and directly handed Maju over to him before flying towards the main peak. Along the way, he instantly killed three Golden Core

cultivators who were attacking Mufuchu. Hanju could feel the powerful oppression coming from the main peak. I hope I can still make it in time. At that moment, he detected Chang'e's presence. Chang'e and others were being surrounded by a group of demon cultivators. Just as they were preparing to fight to the death, suddenly, three flashes flew from afar. The next second, the demon cultivators were split in half like fruit in Fruit Ninja. Chang'e and the others were stunned. Hanju didn't stay for a moment longer and continued flying towards the main peak. Meanwhile, in a forest, a

one-eyed man was pressuring Xing Hongxian. Become my cultivation partner. Come back with me to the Azure Nether demon sect and I'll spare your life. How could Xing Hongxian ever agree? Pa, Duan Tongtian killed my parents. Even if I die, I won't go back. Just as the one-eyed man was about to make his move, Xing Hongxian suddenly exclaimed with joy, my husband, the one-eyed man thought Xing Hongxian had given in. Ha, you agree just like that? Good, you're quite obedient. I knew it. Without applying some pressure, how could you have submitted? Hanju had already appeared behind

him with eyes red, resolving the second disciple of the demonic sect with just one move. After instructing Xing Hongxian to find a place to hide, he continued rushing towards the main peak. At this time, the system indicated that Xing Hongxuan's favorability towards him had risen to six stars. Hanju couldn't help but give a bitter smile. My damn charm and strength. At this moment, atop the main peak, Li Qingzi, the supreme elder, and Xishuan Ferry, among others, were all heavily injured. Li Qingzi and the supreme elder were in the worst condition. Duan Tongtian looked down on

everyone from above in the next second. He appeared in front of Xishuan Ferry. Is this all the strength the Jade Pure sect has? Back in the day, my demonic sect only killed some people for our goo cultivation, and yet we've been targeted for a hundred years. Now that I am in the spirit transformation stage, who dares to block us? Using the cultivators of your entire sect for our goo cultivation will surely increase our sect's strength significantly. Then, the number one sect in the Great Swallow Dynasty will be ours. Ha ha ha. Xishuan Ferry, aren't you

going to give up yet? Guess how many people from the Jade Pure sect are still alive. After saying this, he raised his hand to deliver a fatal blow to Xishuan Ferry. At this critical moment, Hanju timely appeared and rescued Xishuan Ferry. It was the first time he saw her in such a sorry state. He asked with concern, Master, are you all right? Xishuan Ferry, upon seeing Hanju, also widened her eyes, but the next second, she punched him in the face. What are you doing here? Run. Listen to me. Flee as far as you can. From

now on, you are no longer a disciple of the Jade Pure sect. Duan Tongtian felt ignored, which made him furiously embarrassed. Kid, you've got guts. If you kneel and kowtow three times, I'll spare your life and even give you a chance to join the Azure Nether Demon sect. At this time, the system also popped up two options. However, Hanju was not influenced by these choices. The reason he came here was that he had already made up his mind. He stepped closer to Duan Tongtian, his blood boiling. Even a survivor cultivator has his own passion. Just

then, a voice suddenly said, Loki, so you are here. Zhang Kunmo fiercely appeared behind Hanju. Duan Tongtian laughed. He he he, there's no need for me to make a move. With Elder Zhang Kunmo's strength, he alone could crush you all. However, as soon as his words fell, Zhang Kunmo was sent flying out like a cannonball. Everyone who saw this scene was shocked. Hanju, however, smiled at Duan Tongtian. Are you ready? It's time to send you on your way. Meanwhile, the blasted Zhang Kunmo struggled up from the ground, furiously roaring. Loki, I'll kill you, abyssal demon

lamb. With your souls, I shall pay homage to my disciple, Qin Santian. Disciple, do you see? I am avenging you. He summoned his most powerful magical treasure and charged at Hanju. Hanju, however, slowly raised his left hand, extending just his index finger. Three pure shadows soared. In just an instant, the once invincible elder of the azure nether demon sect had his head exploded by Hanju's attack. Everyone was frightened by this strike. At this moment, Duan Tongtian was wearing a mocking smile. To be so young and yet able to slay an elder of my sect with

a sword, why not join our demonic sect? Wealth, partners, methods, and territory, I can give them all to you. Before he could finish speaking, three sword shadows had already arrived in front of Duan Tongtian. But the next second, a red shield appeared in front of him, blocking the three sword shadows. Seeing his three pure shadows sword block so easily, Hanju was puzzled. What exactly is behind him? Behind me is the innate black magnet. This treasure can absorb spiritual power and is immune to most attacks. Unless your spiritual power is stronger than mine, you cannot touch

me. I have already given you a chance. Blame your own presumption. Do you really think I would cherish talent? The world does not lack geniuses. Why are true geniuses so rare in this world? It's because they survive on their own abilities. The rest perish halfway, just like you will. As he spoke, Duan Tongtian suddenly released the terrifying pressure of the spirit transformation stage, enveloping the entire Jade Pure Sect. In an instant, all the fighting disciples of the Jade Pure Sect were shocked and looked towards the main peak. I will let all members of the Jade

Pure Sect die before your eyes. I want to see how you plan to protect the Jade Pure Sect. At this moment, Hanju had already drawn his sword. Enough talk. Are you done? Do you have any last words? As he spoke, Hanju raised the sword in his hand, preparing to unleash a divine ability. Duan Tongtian laughed wildly. Last words? Save them for yourself. But suddenly, he could no longer laugh. As Hanju released his divine ability, Duan Tongtian realized he was locked onto, unable to move even a fraction. This divine ability was Hanju's heaven-punishing demon god sword.

As the sword energy swept over, Duan Tongtian evaporated as if under intense heat, dissipating between heaven and earth. Everyone was scared out of their wits, not knowing how many times today alone. Nascent soul slaying spirit transformation. That's truly badass. However, at this moment, Hanju sensed that Duan Tongtian's primordial spirit had escaped. This hidden danger must not remain. He immediately pursued the primordial spirit. At this moment, atop a pile of ruins, Duan Tongtian's primordial spirit was trembling incessantly. Lucky I ran fast. Who exactly is this person? Loki! This voice suddenly scared Duan Tongtian tremendously. Hanju had

appeared behind Duan Tongtian without him knowing when. The hundred-year struggle between the Jade Pure sect and the Azure Nether Demon sect ends today. He raised his left hand and used the divine ability of the six realms of reincarnation, six paths soul absorption. Duan Tongtian immediately began to scream in agony. Loki, I won't let you off even as a ghost. The monster-taming demon sect won't let you off. After a few shouts, his primordial spirit was refined by Hanju. Hanju was puzzled. What the heck is the monster-taming demon sect? Two system notifications were heard. You have successfully

killed a spirit transformation cultivator and obtained a spirit controlling pill. Xiao has developed hatred towards you with a current hatred level of five stars. Hanju was baffled. Who is Xiao? He immediately opened the relationship list and found that Xiao was at the second level of the fusion void realm. Hanju was speechless. I knew there would be older ones coming to cause trouble. At this moment, everyone suddenly noticed that the innate black magnet left by Duan Tongtian was emitting an anomaly. A thick smoke emerged from the innate black magnet and shortly after, a figure appeared from

within the smoke. Fellow Taoist, truly a splendid divine ability. Nascent soul slaying spirit transformation has broadened my horizons. Hanju was about to strike with his sword, but the other party said, it's futile. I am a great cultivator of the fusion void realm. Your divine ability cannot slay spirits like ours. If only Duan Tongtian had bought a bit more time, I wouldn't have recovered just this much. Hearing this, Master Jingxiu was shocked. Fusion void? Who are you? I am Xiao, an elder of the monster-taming demon sect from the northern province. My sect has planned for many

years, but did not account for your variable. I'll remember this debt. Are you saying that Duan Tongtian was merely stalling for time, actually for your sake? Of course. That waste told me no one in the jade pure sect was his match, allowing me to. At this point, Xiao realized, kid, are you trying to trick information out of me? Seeing that your primordial spirit is different from ordinary ones, could it be that your physical body has been damaged or even destroyed, right? Xiao scoffed, you're not qualified to know. I simply disdain to bully the younger generation.

That's all. I've already sent the message back to the demon sect. Wait for the monster-taming demon sect's retaliation. With that, Xiao disappeared. Only then did Li Qingzi understand. No wonder the Azure Nether demon sect plotted against the Myriad Demon Realm. It was all arranged by the monster-taming demon sect. The top priority now is to eradicate all the demon cultivators within the sect. Han Ju, I need your help. While speaking, Li Qingzi realized that Han Ju was completely ignoring him and went straight to Xishuan Fairy to heal her wounds. Li Qingzi was speechless. Han, your master's

injuries aren't that serious. Hearing Li Qingzi ask him to eradicate the demonic sect, Han Ju immediately refused without a second thought. No way, my master is the most important. If you wanna go, you go. Joking aside, if I were to take down the entire demonic sect, wouldn't that make me too famous? Fame is something I'd like to avoid. Xishuan Fairy's lips curved slightly upon hearing this. At this moment, the other elders present cast envious glances towards Xishuan Fairy. Elder Daolei then asked Han Ju, fellow Daoist, what is your background? With your abilities, you surely can't

be a disciple cultivated by our Jade Pure sect alone. A chance encounter doesn't necessarily mean we've met before. You only need to know that I am now a disciple of the Jade Pure sect, and I will not harm the Jade Pure sect. Han Ju replied. As they were talking, other elders from the demonic sect rushed over, but they couldn't find Duan Tongtian anywhere. Instead, they found Zhang Kanmo's body. Li Qingzi then utilized all his spiritual energy, his voice echoing throughout the entire Jade Pure sect. The leader of the demonic sect, Duan Tongtian, is dead. Disciples

of the Jade Pure sect, hear my command. Exterminate all demon cultivators within the sect. Upon hearing that their leader was dead, the members of the demonic sect were so frightened that they fled in all directions. The disciples of the Jade Pure sect were greatly encouraged and chased after the fleeing demonic cultivators, beating them like stray dogs. Seeing the demon cultivators scattering, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Li Qingzi then turned to Han Ju with a fervent look in his eyes. Fellow elders, I believe everyone present has seen Han Ju's strength. Given his

performance today, from now on, Han Ju will be the vice sect leader of the Jade Pure sect. As for me, my cultivation can no longer make any breakthroughs. The future of the Jade Pure sect will depend on the younger generation. Han Ju has great potential and fully qualifies for this position. I suppose there are no objections. Suddenly, a voice rang out. I object. This voice came from Han Ju himself. I only wish to cultivate in peace. Being a vice sect leader is so tiresome. Where would I find the time to cultivate? Hearing this, Li Qingzi

couldn't help feeling conflicted. In the end, it was the supreme elder who suggested, then let him be a nominal elder. He will enjoy the same stipend as the sect leader. And unless the sect is in trouble, no one is allowed to disturb him on ordinary days. Upon hearing this, Han Ju immediately nodded in satisfaction. This is exactly what I like. Speaking of which, that person was at the fusion void realm. Could he not? All right, as you guessed earlier, he indeed only has his primordial spirit left. Duan Tongtian probably promised to help him recover his

physical body in exchange for a breakthrough opportunity. The reason for the delay might have been to use some secret method to absorb the spiritual energy and vitality of the Jade Pure sect. Moreover, the northern province is as far from us as the ends of the earth. Even if he comes over, our allies of the righteous path won't let him cause chaos. Yet, Han Ju still felt insecure. Better to continue my secluded cultivation and surpass the fusion void realm as soon as possible. After the battle between the Jade Pure sect and the Azure Nether Demon sect

concluded, tales of a mysterious powerful being quietly spread within the Jade Pure sect. In this moment of crisis for the Jade Pure sect, we were fortunate to have our godslaying elder. With a single sword strike, he vanquished a spirit transformation, turning peril into safety. Hearing what Xixuan Ferry had said, a wave of fanboys and fangirls for the godslaying elder immediately emerged among the audience. Our sect actually hides a spirit transformation realm powerhouse. Starting today, the godslaying elder is my idol. Any sisters interested in joining the godslaying fan group? I heard he's super handsome. After letting

everyone leave, Xixuan Ferry kept Han Ju behind. After a moment of silence between them, Xixuan Ferry spoke softly. Don't you have anything to say? Han Ju was puzzled. What should I say? Tell me who you really are. What is your purpose in the Jade Pure sect? Li Qingzi might not care, but as your master, I need to understand clearly. No wonder you never needed my teachings. Should I call you fellow Taoist Han from now on? Han Ju was speechless. You should have already understood my background from Brother Tai. Do you not believe in my talent?

Xixuan Ferry narrowed her eyes slightly. Even if you have exceptional talent, where did you get those techniques from? Han Ju then realized, nascent soul slaying spirit transformation is too outrageous. No one would believe it if I told them. Plus, I've always kept a low profile, but managed to acquire top-notch resources. Even a fool would see something's amiss. Eventually, Han Ju thought of a suitable excuse, and thus began his story. Once upon a time, there was a child who loved drinking beast milk and lived carefree every day. One day, under a charred old willow tree struck

by lightning, he found a ring. Intent on turning it over to the local constable as he picked up the ring without greed. Suddenly, an immortal popped out from it. The immortal took one look at him and wanted to take him as a disciple. Seeing your extraordinary bones, you must be a rare genius. Our meeting is fated. Here, I have a yellow rank technique to give to you. Since then, the immortal would often teach me techniques through dreams, saying that I was destined to become a celestial being. But fate is filled with hardships, so I secluded

myself daily, daring not to cause trouble. As he fabricated this, Han Ju thought, the more I make up, the more outrageous it becomes. Master probably won't believe it, right? To his surprise, Xi Xuan Ferry actually believed it. So that's how it is. There have indeed been such precedents. Given that, why did you step forward at that time? The Jade Pure Sect hasn't treated you well, and I believe you don't really consider the Jade Pure Sect as your home. Indeed, I've lived for a hundred years, and there aren't many people I care about. By chance, they

are all in the Jade Pure Sect. The most important person among them wanted to live and die together with the Jade Pure Sect. At that moment, the system sent a notification, Xi Xuan Ferry's favorability towards you has increased to 3.5 stars. Even Xi Xuan Ferry was pleasantly moved by that statement. She quickly changed the subject. So, what are your plans moving forward? Continue with your seclusion? Yes, who knows when that fusion void realm demon will come to attack. I need to strengthen myself as fast as I can. With that, Xi Xuan Ferry allowed Han Ju

to leave. Upon returning to his cave dwelling, Han Ju thought about the difference in the elder's attitudes towards him before and now. Is this what they call showing off? This feeling is really quite delightful. Indeed, strength is respected above all. It seems that my decision to focus on cultivation was correct. I will continue to dedicate myself fully to cultivation. At this moment, Chan Yue came over again, carrying a pile of heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Junior brother, I'm here. The sect has collected quite a few items that can enhance the spiritual energy of your cave

dwelling. I'll help you plant them. We also need to set up a spirit gathering array. Han Ju was continuously grateful. Thank you so much, senior sister. Joking? You're now the godslaying elder. Can I still call you my junior brother? Then, the system sent a notification. Your senior sister's favorability has reached five and a half stars. The next second, Han Ju suddenly pinned his senior sister against the wall. As long as senior sister seriously cultivates and doesn't slack off, you'll always be my senior sister. This move instantly made Chan Yue's face turn bright red. I am

cultivating, but I can't compare to junior brother. Han Ju then whispered in Chan Yue's ear, Senior sister, I have a request. Without hesitation, Chan Yue agreed. Mm, tell me. I'll fulfill it. Han Ju immediately revealed a cunning smile. Could you please set up another formation for the cave dwelling? Fireproof, theft-proof, and senior sister-proof. Thank you. In the following three years, the Jade Pure sect relentlessly pursued the remnants of the Azure Nether Demon sect, which had been causing trouble for a hundred years until it was completely eradicated. The entire Great Swallow cultivation world was shocked. The

title of the godslaying elder also spread throughout the cultivation world. Han Ju reached the second level of the nascent soul. At this moment, the system suddenly sent a message. A hidden achievement was completed. Duan Tongtian's death and the Azure Nether Demon sect's eradication, an additional reward was triggered. Besides the original reward of the spirit-controlling pill, you have obtained a magical tool, the Demon Binding Rope, and a spell manual, Myriad Thunderstorm. One day, thunderclouds suddenly gathered above the inner sect of the Jade Pure sect, terrifying heavenly might enveloping the 18 peaks, causing everyone to feel a

chill down their spine. The elders thought another attack from the demonic sect was imminent and prepared for battle. However, the supreme elder, with a glint of gold in his eyes, looked towards the clouds and calmly stated, no need to worry. I used the energy observation technique to check. The source is from Han Ju's area. Hearing this, the elders relaxed. Then it's nothing to worry about. Everyone, go back to your homes. At this time, over at Han Ju's location, the cause of such a commotion was him practicing the newly acquired spell, Myriad Thunderstorm. This thunderous spell

could summon the spiritual energy of the heavens and earth to unleash a world-ending thunderstorm. Feeling the power of this spell, Han Ju was delighted. Finally, I have a skill for widespread damage. Just then, Li Qingzi sought out Han Ju, smiling and saying he had something to discuss. When they arrived at Han Ju's cave dwelling, Li Qingzi offered Elder Han, if you have any needs, just speak up. I've already informed all the elders. Your minor issues are major issues for the Jade Pure sect. This cave dwelling is indeed a bit small. How about moving to main

peak for cultivation? It's spacious and comfortable there. Seeing the ill-intentioned look in Li Qingzi's eyes, Han Ju immediately refused without a second thought. Seeing Han Ju's refusal, Li Qingzi did not insist further and even mentioned, as for your innate cave dwelling, the sect will allocate its best resources to remodel it for you. He then revealed his real purpose for the visit. Elder Han, would you be willing to take on a disciple? Hearing this, Han Ju was taken aback. This individual has exceptional talent. Elder Han, you only need to provide some guidance when you have the

time. Li Qingzi gestured, and a young man walked in from outside. At that moment, the system suddenly notified. Innate destiny individual detected. Immediately, all the information about this person appeared before Han Ju's eyes. Yang Tiandong, bearing the bloodline of a demonic sage, was born half-human, half-demon, with unparalleled talent. However, in his youth, he once lost control and transformed into a demon, injuring his fellow sect members. He was imprisoned by the Azure Nether demon sect and was fortunately rescued by the Jade Pure sect. Upon seeing this, Han Ju couldn't help but think, another protagonist template. Reluctantly,

Han Ju agreed. Taking on a disciple is fine. However, he must be allowed to choose any cultivation technique from the Jade Pure sect. I will only be responsible for teaching spells and divine abilities. Li Qingzi readily agreed, and then brought over a large box. These are tokens representing your status as the godslaying elder. You can give them to your disciples in the future. Seeing this, Han Ju was speechless. Is this so I can recruit a whole platoon of disciples? Before Han Ju could say anything, Li Qingzi hurriedly left. Han Ju then turned to Yang Tiandong.

I have already deduced your background. Your name is Yang Tiandong. Half human, half demon, and you were imprisoned by the Azure Nether demon sect, right? Upon hearing this, Yang Tiandong looked up in astonishment, shocked. Li Qingzi had specifically instructed him not to reveal his past to Han Ju, but Han Ju had directly deduced it. Yang Tiandong was thoroughly impressed with his new master. You could even deduce this. I admire you. At this moment, the system notified that Yang Tiandong's favorability towards me had increased to three stars. Han Ju was secretly pleased. I have the system.

What don't I know? Immediately, Han Ju handed him a token. All right, take good care of this token. Find a place to meditate and cultivate. Unexpectedly, Yang Tiandong suddenly said, Master, I have a request. My father left behind a profound skill that can only be cultivated at the spirit transformation level. With my limited talent, I beg master to teach me. Then, Yang Tiandong handed over a red feather. Seeing the feather, Han Ju was greatly shocked. This is, upon taking the feather from Yang Tiandong, Han Ju discovered that his spiritual sense was blocked by it. It

seems that to access the skill inside, one must have the spiritual sense of the spirit transformation level. He then waved his hand. I will study it first. The path of cultivation requires the will to endure hardship. Cultivate your spiritual power for 10 years, and then I will teach you spells. Yang Tiandong respectfully said, Thank you, master. Wait, 10 years? Nothing, nothing. I will begin cultivating. In the blink of an eye, 10 years passed. During these 10 years, Han Ju also reached the fourth level of the nascent soul. When he opened his eyes to look at

his soul disciple, he found Yang Tiandong looking at him with a sense of grievance, as if he had grown birds on his head. Master, you're finally awake. I've been sitting motionless for 10 years. I'm about to develop hemorrhoids. Seeing this, Han Ju couldn't help but feel embarrassed. However, seeing him progress from the first level of foundation establishment to the sixth level in 10 years, he does have some ability. He then asked, disciple, how do you feel about these 10 years? Replying to master, the disciple has greatly benefited from the hard cultivation over these 10 years,

and has even comprehended many truths. Han Ju couldn't help but scoff internally, fooling around. I've been in seclusion for so many years and haven't comprehended any profound truths. Then he stretched lazily. Since that's the case, you should go out and complete some tasks. Hearing he could finally leave, Yang Tiandong was extremely excited. Really? I can go out? That's great. What task? I remember there's a monthly contribution leaderboard at the sex mission tower. Return when you become first on the monthly board. The joy on Yang Tiandong's face instantly turned to despair. What? First on the monthly

board? Who knows how long that will take. But before Yang Tiandong could say anything more, Han Ju kicked him out of the cave dwelling. After finally sending Yang Tiandong away, Han Ju took out the red feather. He decided to start unraveling the feather's seal now. He took out the spirit-controlling pill he had obtained earlier, which was specifically meant to enhance spiritual sense. Han Ju immediately consumed all of it. After absorbing it, he felt his spiritual sense had strengthened more than tenfold. He projected his spiritual sense into the feather again. The previous resistance reemerged, but this

time his spiritual sense collided with it and broke through the barrier in just a few seconds. Suddenly, countless golden symbols engulfed Han Ju. At the foot of the Jade Pure Sect Mountain, Mafuchu was leading a group of children towards the sect. He was now responsible for recruiting new disciples. Seeing them reminded him of his own early days in the Jade Pure Sect, which brought a smile to his face. Suddenly, a whooshing sound was heard, and a bamboo arrow shot from the shadows towards Mafuchu. He instinctively dodged, but the bamboo arrow exploded not far from him,

releasing a cloud of poison. Everyone, back off. We're under attack. Then, a figure clad in a straw raincoat, wielding dual blades, attacked Mafuchu. Mafuchu managed to block the strike and repelled the attacker several meters away. However, another assailant appeared behind him and stabbed Mafuchu's shoulder with a spear. Seeing Mafuchu wounded, everyone was extremely worried. A man in a straw raincoat spoke in a deep voice, Everyone, kneel down and don't move. We're only after Mafuchu. If you interfere, none of you will leave alive. Injured and on the edge of a critical hit, Mafuchu dared not act

rashly. Who are you? Heavenly stars and earthly fiends. All we can tell you is that a great calamity is coming for the Jade Pure Sect. At that moment, everyone felt the ground shake. A giant, whose upper body was submerged in the sea of clouds, appeared. It was Hanju. He was using the divine ability he had learned from the feather, as heaven and earth, to forge a physical body from vital energy. When fully mastered, one could have a body tens of thousands of meters tall. He shouted, You dare to capture my Jade Pure Sect's disciples right

at our doorstep? The two individuals in straw raincoats were petrified upon seeing the gigantic Hanju. Hanju felt secretly delighted. This, as heaven and earth ability, is perfect for showing off. It's not just imposing, but also has top-tier destructive power. As Hanju charged towards them, the two were frozen in fear, even attempting to use Mafuchu as a hostage. However, Hanju ignored them completely, swinging his mountainous fist towards them. The other members of the Jade Pure Sect were stunned, crying out, We're on the same side. But just as the fist was about to hit them, it vanished

into thin air. Mafuchu saw a figure flash by his side. In the next second, there were two screams. When Mafuchu turned back, the assailants had disappeared, leaving everyone bewildered, not understanding what had happened. By then, Mafuchu knew who the rescuer was. Who else could instantly defeat two Golden Core experts but him? Realizing this, Mafuchu yelled at the stunned disciples nearby, What are you standing around for? Heal me! At this moment, inside the main hall of the Jade Pure Sect's main peak, the door was suddenly kicked open. Li Qingzi, frightened, hastily attempted to destroy any sensitive

documents. The two individuals in straw raincoats were thrown inside. These two tried to capture Mafuchu. I'm leaving them to you. The newcomer was Han Ju. When Li Qingzi saw the straw hats and dual blades, his face immediately turned pale. A straw raincoat fades into the distance, dual blades that could slay the Righteous Path's immortals. The Supreme Elder emerged out of nowhere. If I'm not mistaken, these should be members of the Raincoat Holy Church. A thousand years ago, the Raincoat Holy Church once dominated the Great Swallow cultivation world. They were driven into hiding by a coalition

of the Righteous Path for harming various sex geniuses. Recently, they have resurfaced and captured many talented disciples from the Righteous Path. They seem to have access to a lot of our information. The disciples they've captured are all geniuses. We suspect there's a traitor in our sect capable of gathering intelligence, either from the Morning Sun Pavilion or from within our own high ranks. We shouldn't jump to conclusions. This demonic cult has lain low for thousands of years and now suddenly emerges. They surely have significant schemes afoot. At this moment, Han Ju asked, what about the strength

of the Raincoat Holy Church? Do they have any fusion void realm cultivators? There are definitely spirit transformation level cultivators. As for the fusion void, it's unclear. Hearing this, Han Ju immediately thought of fleeing. Elder Han, there's no time to delay. I need to visit other sects with Li Qingzi personally to unite the Righteous Factions. The safety of the Jade Pure sect during this period is entrusted to you. As soon as the Supreme Elder finished speaking, the system popped up with options. One, refuse the request and leave the Jade Pure sect, obtaining a youth-preserving pill. Two,

accept the request, continue cultivating, and defend the Jade Pure sect. Ensure the sect remains safe until the sect leader returns, obtaining a spell manual and a spirit transformation realm cultivation elixir. Upon seeing the system's choices, he immediately chose the second option. As long as I don't have to leave, everything is negotiable. Hearing Han Ju actually agreed, both were overjoyed. Thus, six more years passed and Han Ju broke through to the fifth level of the nascent soul, extending his lifespan to 1,080 years. Only then did he remember his own disciple. It seems like it's been a

long time since I've heard from him. Was asking him to be first on the monthly board too much? He then checked his social circle to see if there were any updates from his disciple. It's all news about attacks by the Raincoat Holy Church. My disciple has also been captured by the Raincoat Holy Church. No wonder there's been no news. Logically, as a master, it's only right for me to rescue him in times of trouble. But Han Ju immediately dismissed the idea. Han Ju would not take risks. This is definitely a trap, sorry. My dear disciple,

your master is powerless. I can only wish you fend for yourself and have a better life in your next life. Since I'm not going out, then as an elder, I should do something for the sect, at least to justify the sect's investment in me. At that moment, Han Ju suddenly thought Li Qingzi had suspected there was a spy among the elders. Could there be members of the Raincoat Holy Church inside the Jade Pure Sect? Just as he thought this, the system suddenly popped up with a red character relationship. Looking up, it's Daolei. So the traitor

is him, a secret steward for the Raincoat Holy Church at the seventh level of the nascent soul realm. He's been hiding deep. No wonder after saving the Jade Pure Sect that day, he was the only high-ranking member who didn't show any fondness for me. I thought he was just being aloof, but he turned out to be a spy. However, both the sect leader and the supreme elder away from the sect, the only one I can trust now is my master. Immediately, Han Ju went to see Xishuan Ferry. I have discovered that there is a spy

from the Raincoat Holy Church among the elders. How should we resolve this? Xishuan Ferry directly asked. Who is it? Daolei from Thunder Peak. Han Ju was thinking about how to convince his master when Xishuan Ferry simply said two words, kill him. Hearing this, Han Ju was bewildered. They must have some personal grudge. She's decided on execution without even asking for evidence. I've long noticed something wrong with him. Since even you say so, it must be true. There's no need to inform the other elders. Let's go directly to Thunder Peak. Soon, the two arrived at Thunder

Peak. Daolei was preparing to greet them, but before he could speak, the Three Pure Shadows sword pierced through Daolei's chest, pinning him to the wall of the main hall. Daolei was extremely frightened. You, what does this mean? Han Ju appeared emotionlessly in front of Daolei. Someone has accused you of being a secret steward for the Raincoat Holy Church. The recent incidents involving our disciples cannot be disconnected from you. Today, I shall eliminate the menace for the Jade Pure Sect and avenge those missing talented disciples. Daolei was shocked. He immediately detonated himself, transforming into lightning in

an attempt to flee the grand hall. However, Han Ju simply raised his right hand and cast Myriad Thunderstorm. Instantly, countless bolts of lightning filled the entire hall. When the smoke cleared, only Daolei's primordial spirit remained as his physical body had been destroyed. He hastily pleaded for mercy from Han Ju. Han, Elder Han, please spare me. I confess. I'll confess everything. Han Ju wouldn't leave himself a future threat. He ended him with a nine dragons demon subduing seal. The cleanup was left to Xishuan Ferry. As the disciples of Thunder Peak noticed the commotion and rushed over,

Xishuan Ferry calmly told them. After investigation by the godslaying elder, it has been found that Thunder Peak's Elder Daolei was a secret steward for the Raincoat Holy Church. He has been executed, but the disciples simply couldn't believe it. When other elders heard about this, they also questioned Xishuan Ferry. He has been diligent for so many years, and he's a traitor? Is there any evidence? However, when Xishuan Ferry presented Daolei's storage ring and everyone saw the correspondence between him and the Raincoat Holy Church, the elders finally realized the truth. They were also terrified by Han Ju's

formidable abilities. At this time, Han Ju was lying on a large tree reviewing his relationship list. Fortunately, only Daolei among the elders was a spy, but at the steward level, it's a whole different story. Aside from the Raincoat Holy Church, there are spies from both righteous and demonic paths, as well as some cultivation families. Han Ju was dumbfounded. It's like a sieve. To avoid alarming them, I'll just memorize the names for now and deal with them later. Just then, the system suddenly notified him of an innate destiny individual. Han Ju was astonished when he saw

the information about this person. Compared to this, my disciple's bloodline is trash. He was also shocked. Do these individuals really exist? The next second, Han Ju approached an old man pulling a cart, blocking his path. Old man, could you give me one of those chicks? However, the old man stated, this is to be delivered to the inner sect. At this point, Han Ju presented his token as the godslaying elder. It's fine, I am the jade pure sex godslaying elder. If they ask, just say I took one of your chicks. The old man was surprised and

quickly let Han Ju choose as he pleased. Opening the chicken cage, Han Ju's eyes immediately spotted the distinct little black chicken. This chicken was the innate destiny individual, the Dark Prison Chicken, a reincarnation of a demonic saint from the Upper Realms. Originally the Dark Prison Phoenix, having killed countless beings and offended the heavens, it was executed by the Celestial Court. Its soul entered the cycle of reincarnation and was reborn in the mortal world. Its soul will continually transform its body until it fully turns back into the Dark Prison Phoenix. Currently, it's in the form of

a chick with the intelligence of a two-year-old child. Han Ju became excited. This chick, I'll take it. When the sect leader and the supreme elder returned, Shi Xuan Ferry couldn't help but laugh upon seeing them. Master, senior brother, you've finally returned. You both look quite happy. Was the journey smooth? The two thought Shi Xuan Ferry was showing concern for them, which made them quite happy. Then, Shi Xuan Ferry informed them about the incident with Daolei. They were so angry that they wished they could whip his corpse. With the successful return of Li Qingzi and the

sect leader, Han Ju also received rewards from the system. The Wind God Technique, a wind element spell allowing one to ride the winds and even transform one's body into wind. And 12 Spirit Transformation Spirit Concentration Pills, superior cultivation elixirs for the Spirit Transformation Realm. After bringing the little black chicken back to his cave dwelling, Han Ju made a considerable effort to teach it how to absorb energy. It took a great deal of effort to teach it and to have it use energy absorption to alleviate hunger. Han Ju was relieved. Otherwise, the heavenly materials and earthly

treasures in his cave dwelling would have been devoured by it sooner or later. Xing Hongxian also mentioned, my husband, you needn't worry. I've obtained quite a few heavenly materials and earthly treasures during my travels, all of which I've planted for you. Not only these, but I also have a big gift for you. Guess what it is? Without thinking, Han Ju guessed it was a storage ring and surprisingly, he guessed correctly. Last month, when she and her fellow disciples went out for experience, they encountered a battle between righteous and demonic factions. After defeating the demonic cult

together, they conveniently took a storage ring. Finding it contained many treasures, she immediately decided to bring it to Han Ju. See, going out for cultivation experience isn't without rewards. With your strength, you'll definitely thrive. However, Han Ju refused. Forget it. You keep the storage ring for yourself. I just want to live a peaceful life. Face reality. The Jade Pure Sect can't protect you forever. There are countless sects stronger than the Jade Pure Sect beyond your imagination. So, where does the Jade Pure Sect rank in the Great Swallow cultivation world? The Great Swallow cultivation world has

over 20 sects. Among the righteous path, there are 12. The Jade Pure Sect could be considered in the top five. Hearing this, Han Ju thought, only the top five? No wonder the Jade Pure Sect has so many enemies. Xing Hongxian continued, actually, the difference in strength among most sects isn't significant, mainly because there's no martial competition to determine the real rankings. By the way, a prominent figure has recently emerged in the Vermilion Bird sect named Huang Jihao. He killed a nascent soul old monster when he was only at the Golden Core realm. Now, he's likely

achieved spirit transformation. It's said he wants to challenge all the sects in the Great Swallow cultivation world. What if he really comes to our Jade Pure Sect? You can't possibly not take action, right? God slang elder. Hearing this, Han Ju was utterly speechless inside. What does the God slang elder's business have to do with me, Han Ju? Why is there always such a battle-crazed fanatic wherever I go? He then asked, has Huang Jihao killed anyone? No, he hasn't. After all, the Vermilion Bird sect is also a righteous sect. Hearing this, Han Ju immediately relaxed. Let

him come then. I, Han, am always ready to welcome him. A year later, in a forest a few miles away from the Jade Pure Sect, Yi Sam Lang, a steward of the Raincoat Holy Church, was waiting for Daolei. Puzzled, he thought, I've been waiting for over a month. Why hasn't he arrived? Rumors had it that the Jade Pure Sect's God slang elder was extremely fierce, slapping even dogs he encountered. Yet, other rumors described him as exceedingly cautious, and he had never been seen. If it weren't for him guarding the Jade Pure Sect, Yi Sam Lang

would have ventured into the Jade Pure Sect long ago. Just then, a figure suddenly appeared behind Yi Sam Lang. Are you steward Yi of the Raincoat Holy Church? The newcomer was Han Ju. Thanks to periodically using the system to detect strong individuals nearby, he had discovered Yi Sam Lang. He told Yi Sam Lang, I am a direct disciple of Daolei. Recently, Daolei has been targeted by the sect leader and couldn't get away, so he specially sent me to take over. However, Yi Sam Lang suddenly struck Han Ju's chest with a palm. Our secret signal is

in that. Secondly, including the spy himself, no one knows his identity. To Yi Sam Lang's surprise, not only was Han Ju unharmed by his palm strike, but Yi Sam Lang himself was also repelled by the force. Yi Sam Lang was shocked. What's going on? I couldn't breach his defense. I was repelled with just one exchange. This level of power I've only seen in our leader. You're clearly only at the ninth level of the Foundation establishment realm. How can you be so strong? Suddenly, he thought of someone at the ninth level of the Foundation establishment. Could

it be? His face turned pale with fear, and he turned to flee. This is trouble. To deal with the godslaying elder, we'd need to mobilize half of our high-level forces at all costs. The information must be sent. But before he could get far, Han Ju eliminated him with a heaven-punishing demon godsword. His primordial spirit barely had a chance to escape before it was locked down by Han Ju using myriad thunderstorm. Speak. What exactly is the Raincoat Holy Church planning? It turned out that their plan, before swallowing up sects, was to capture the geniuses within those

sects and bring them to concentration camps. Once a sect was destroyed, these geniuses, having nowhere else to go, would have no choice but to join them. At that moment, Han Ju coldly asked, are you targeting only the Jade Pure sect or the entire cultivation world? The entire cultivation world. Han Ju continued, you're quite bold. Does the Raincoat Holy Church have any cultivators in the Spirit Transformation or Fusion Void realm? There are those in the Spirit Transformation realm, but as for the Fusion Void realm, I don't know. With the Raincoat Holy Church being so strong, why

stay hidden? Where are all the geniuses from various sects being held? Yi San Lang, looking miserable, responded, I'm just an ordinary steward. I don't know these things. A nascent soul seventh-level cultivator is just an ordinary steward? This church is terrifying. At this point, Yi San Lang, trembling, pleaded, senior, I won't dare anymore. Please spare me. But at that moment, Han Ju suddenly received a system notification, Yi San Lang's hatred towards you has reached six stars. Han Ju sighed internally, you've chosen a dead-end path. He then spoke indifferently, you may leave. Yi San Lang was overjoyed

upon hearing this, but the next second, his primordial spirit was directly extinguished by Han Ju. Not far away, Xing Hongxian unexpectedly found another storage ring. Wow, I found another storage ring. I'll take it back to my husband. Two years later, Li Qingzi came to Han Ju's cave dwelling. I have a favor to ask of Elder Han. We've located where the Raincoat Holy Church is holding the geniuses. The terrain is easy to defend, but hard to attack. We will handle the frontal assault while you cut in to take their heads. However, Han Ju refused without a

second thought. I think it's inappropriate. What if it's a ploy to draw the tiger away from the mountain? What if the Raincoat Holy Church sends a spirit transformation cultivator to attack the Jade Pure sect while I'm away? Can you hold them off? Remember, a nascent soul seventh-level cultivator is only a steward in the Raincoat Holy Church. Li Qingzi, realizing Han Ju's reasoning was sound, said, indeed, then I'll handle it myself. The safety of the Jade Pure sect will be in your hands, Elder Han. Han Ju immediately stated, unless faced with a fusion void realm powerhouse,

no one can think of attacking the Jade Pure sect. With Han Ju's assurance, Li Qingzi left contendedly. After Li Qingzi departed, Han Ju entered the simulation battlefield to test his limits. He chose Duan Tongtian as his opponent, setting his cultivation level to the ninth layer of spirit transformation. After the battle, Han Ju exited the simulation, but his expression was grim. A draw against a ninth layer spirit transformation realm facing a fusion void realm, I'd be dead for sure. It seems I need to go into seclusion for cultivation immediately. He then checked his social circle to

see updates, finding his poor disciple still getting beaten, silently praying, hold on, my disciple, I'll come to rescue you once I'm confident in my strength. Meanwhile, in a dark, dilapidated house, four individuals in straw raincoats were sitting together. They had been waiting for Yi Sanlang's return for a long time and began to speculate if something had happened to him. Just then, the door was kicked open. As the straw raincoat individuals prepared to attack, the intruder mocked, this is your level? I can't even be bothered to draw my sword. The few straw raincoat individuals were startled.

Who are you? I am Huang Jihao from the Vermilion Bird Sword sect. I'm here to challenge the raincoat holy church. Tell me, where is your headquarters? Upon realizing the visitor was Huang Jihao, the faces of the individuals changed drastically. In a moment of quick thinking, one of them said, our leader is currently in seclusion and won't be out anytime soon. Why don't you first challenge the Jade Pure sect? If you defeat that person, we will disclose the location of our holy church's main entrance to you. Huang Jihao was momentarily stunned, challenged the Jade Pure sect,

that declining sect poses no challenge. It's different now. Recently, the Jade Pure sect has produced a formidable individual known as the Godslaying Elder. He has slain a spirit transformation powerhouse with a single sword strike. His strength is unfathomable. However, Huang Jihao responded, I have crossed swords with the sect leader and supreme elder of the Jade Pure sect. Their strength was mediocre and I've never heard of any Godslaying Elder. The members of the Raincoat sect hastily assured him, just ask around and you'll know. We would never dare to deceive you. First, tell me the location of

the Raincoat sect. I'll challenge the Jade Pure sect first, then head to the Raincoat sect. Upon hearing this, the members were stunned. They thought they could avoid a disaster, but to save their lives, they ultimately decided to compromise. The scene shifts to Han Ju's cave dwelling. Chang Yue came to visit again that day. When she saw the chick, she was instantly charmed and rushed towards the chick. Now nearly as tall as a person, Han Ju warned Chang Yue not to mess it up. This is my precious mount. Chang Yue laughed, using a chicken as a

mount. You're really something. I must say, every time I see your face, it's a pleasure. And with your talents, I'm curious about your parents. They must be extraordinary, right? Han Ju replied calmly, they were just ordinary people. Over a hundred years have passed. They're probably long gone. The moment they abandoned me, we no longer had any familial bonds. Even old Tai showed more responsibility than them. He then swiftly changed the subject. If there's something you wanna say, just say it. Do you know about Elder Guan? He's our master's third senior brother. Han Ju responded, I

don't know him. 300 years ago, he had to leave for refuge because he offended someone. Recently, there have been rumors that he's coming back. Haven't the elders told you? Han Ju casually cleaned his ears. Anyway, it's none of my business. It's said that Elder Guan's return is to vie for the position of sect leader. That's also sect leader Li's problem. Let him worry about it. Elder Guan is said to be quite fond of our master. Maybe he will become our master's cultivation partner. Hearing this, Han Ju's expression changed immediately. So, what's Elder Guan's strength like?

It's said that he gained fortune outside the Great Swallow and has achieved spirit transformation. Finally, the sect has such a powerful figure coming. The elders are celebrating with fireworks. Hearing this, Han Ju said, I got it. Sister, you can go back first. Chang Yue sensed that something was off with Han Ju and hurriedly left. Watching Chang Yue's departing figure, Han Ju said, please relay a message to sect leader Li. I will ensure his position as sect leader remains secure. His gaze became complex. A battle with Elder Guan seems inevitable. But right now, the most troublesome

is Huang Jihao with his profound comprehension of the sword path. It turned out that the system had just detected an innate destiny individual nearby, who was Huang Jihao. At this moment, Han Ju also felt a headache coming on, triggering a system quest that could reward a spiritual treasure. Han Ju decided to engage in a simulation trial first. However, after five minutes, Han Ju defeated the target. Attempting again, it took only two minutes this time. Han Ju became distressed. I can't defeat him instantly, as expected of someone with an innate sword heart, to last two minutes

against me. It seems difficult to avoid making a big scene this time. It's already too late. I have to intercept him halfway. Otherwise, it'll be hard to act low-key once he reaches the sect. At the base of the Jade Pure sect, Huang Jihao was slowly making his way. Suddenly, he discovered a person leaning against a large tree. Foundation establishment realm ninth level? I didn't sense him. This young man is interesting. As he looked at Han Ju, under the system's cursed charm boost, Huang Jihao almost swayed. Delicate and attractive, graceful and slim, with soft, tender lips

that seem breakable by a blow, and hair that dances with the hormones of youth. Truly, he looks remarkably handsome. Just then, Han Ju suddenly received a system notification. Huang Jihao's favorability towards you has risen to two stars. He immediately felt goosebumps all over. What the hell is this? I haven't done anything. How did he suddenly start liking me? At that moment, Huang Jihao spoke up. Kid, I've taken a liking to you. How about you become my disciple? Achieving nascent soul will be no difficult feat for you in the future. Han Ju was instantly creeped out,

feeling goosebumps. Did my ultimate charm get misused? Why does it always attract them? Han Ju then asked in a serious tone, who are you and why have you come to the Jade Pure Sect? I am Huang Jihao of the Vermilion Bird Sword Sect. Have you heard of me? I've come to the Jade Pure Sect naturally to challenge your godslaying elder. Why only challenge the godslaying elder? What about the others in the Jade Pure Sect? Your sect leader and the former sect leader have already been defeated by my hand. Originally, I couldn't be bothered with your

sect, but the Raincoat Holy Church insisted I deal with your godslaying elder before they would disclose their headquarters location to me. Hearing this, Han Ju's hatred for the Raincoat Holy Church instantly escalated to six stars. Yet, Han Ju continued to inquire. So, how strong is their leader? It seems like the godslaying elder might not be a match for him. Their leader is very mysterious. I'm not clear on his strength. Do you have confidence in your abilities? Huang Jihao became impatient at this point. What's the use of asking so many questions? Are you going to become

my disciple or not? Seeing Huang Jihao getting anxious, Han Ju was amused. The fish has bitten the bait. Becoming your disciple is not a problem, but you must first catch my sword strike. If you do, I'll become your disciple. Hearing this, Huang Jihao laughed. You must not have heard of my reputation. I'll take your sword strike. If you can injure me in the slightest, I'll turn around, leave, and never bother the Jade Pure Sect again in my life. Hearing this, Han Ju was delighted. Then don't blame me for not holding back. When Han Ju brought

out the heaven-punishing Demon God Sword, Huang Jihao was immediately startled. This sword is no ordinary weapon. Instantly, the six types of spiritual power within Han Ju erupted like a volcano. Huang Jihao's pupils dilated. This spiritual power, I've been duped. He immediately mobilized his spiritual power to form protective shields in front of him. But the black sword energy from Han Ju's heaven-punishing Demon God Sword was already upon him. Huang Jihao couldn't hold it back. The protective shields shattered instantly. In a critical moment, he leaped to barely dodge the strike. The sword energy swept across, carving a

massive trench in the ground. Huang Jihao was stunned. What kind of sword technique is this? No, this must be a divine ability. As Huang Jihao landed, Han Ju couldn't help but tease. You really are exceptional in your reactions. The renowned Huang Jihao wouldn't go back on his word, right? Are you tricking me? Huang Jihao was shaking with anger, but soon calmed down. Even if that strike wasn't a sneak attack, I couldn't have blocked it. Who exactly are you? You come looking for me, and then ask who I am? Huang Jihao was taken aback, then closed

his eyes to calm himself down. I said I wouldn't come back to the Jade Pure Sect. That's true. Once you leave the Jade Pure Sect, I will come to challenge you. After dropping these words, Huang Jihao left. Han Ju couldn't help but sneer playfully. Wait for me to leave the Jade Pure Sect? Can you afford to wait? As Huang Jihao walked away, fuming, the more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Suddenly, someone blocked his path. May I ask who you are? Why are you coming from the direction of the Jade Pure Sect, acting

all sneaky? You must be a heretic from an external sect. Huang Jihao was not in the mood to deal with him kindly. The man then said, catching you and bringing you back will surely earn me some merit. The elders will think more highly of me. Who do you think you are? Frustrated and looking for an outlet, Huang Jihao, holding his sword, went on the attack. On the other hand, after defeating Huang Jihao, Han Ju received a system reward, a sixth grade spiritual treasure, the Burn Evil Bell, capable of defending against all attacks below the fusion

void realm. When infused with spiritual power, the bell's weight increases with the amount of power injected, until it becomes as heavy as a massive mountain. Han Ju was instantly excited, wearing the mystical god robe cloaked with the Burn Evil Bell. I am unmatched under the heavens. Just then, the voice of Xishuang Ferry came from outside the cave dwelling. Han Ju hurriedly welcomed his master into the dwelling. This was the first time Xishuang Ferry had proactively sought out Han Ju. Xishuang Ferry then took the initiative to speak to Han Ju. You are as told you about

my senior brother, Guan Yu Gang, right? I've heard a bit about him. He returned yesterday, but he encountered Huang Jihao near the Jade Pure sect and ended up severely injured. Han Ju was speechless upon hearing this. That's so like you, old Huang. But in front of Xishuang Ferry, all he could do was sigh. Guan Yu Gang is truly unfortunate. Meanwhile, he thought to himself, so weak. Xishuang Ferry continued, he was defeated by Huang Jihao even when Huang was injured. Also, a nearby forest seems to have been destroyed by sword energy. It must have been Huang

Jihao coming to challenge our Jade Pure sect. But he was repelled by you, right? Han Ju immediately panicked. Yes, master, you're not here to blame me, are you? Seeing Han Ju admit it, Xishuang Ferry actually smiled. Why would I? I just didn't expect that the renowned Huang Jihao would be defeated by a junior like you. I came here hoping you could help me suppress Senior Brother Guan. Han Ju was immediately confused. Suppress Gu Yu Gang? Sect leader might not be as powerful as Senior Brother Guan, but he has dedicated himself to the Jade Pure sect.

Even at the cost of his own cultivation progress, it would be disheartening to remove him from his position as sect leader now. Once his injuries are healed, I'll have him challenge you first. If he can defeat you, he can take the position of sect leader. What do you think? Faced with his master's request, Han Ju immediately agreed. That's possible, but it's best if this battle is kept quiet. Of course, it's also to save face for Senior Brother Guan. At that moment, Xishuang Ferry noticed the chick on the side. You're raising a chicken? This one looks

quite extraordinary. Han Ju quickly explained with a smile. Cultivation can be quite dull sometimes. Having it for company isn't so bad. Xishuang Ferry was amused by Han Ju's words. You find it boring too. Speaking of which, the once-in-a-century Immortal Realm Conference is about to begin. There, you can exchange equivalent resources for treasures, elixirs, heavenly materials, and earthly treasures. And even secret cultivation manuals. Would you like to go? Han Ju immediately refused without a second thought. I just want to focus on my cultivation and seclusion. I don't need to take risks by going out for now.

Meanwhile, within the Vermilion Bird Sword sect, Huang Jihao reported everything that had happened at the Jade Pure sect to the sect leader. The sect leader was clearly startled by the news. This is serious. You are the highest combat power in our sect aside from myself. His spiritual power is extremely dominant. It was my first encounter with such a force. Also, this person is extremely handsome. No one in our Vermilion Bird Sword sect can match his appearance. At this point, Huang Jihao's cheeks turned red with embarrassment. The master of the Vermilion Bird Sword sect had a

deadpan expression. Is that important? Huang Jihao quickly added awkwardly, well, no, it's not that important. Upon this, Huang Jihao stated, once I recover from my injuries, I plan to challenge the Raincoat Holy Church. Sect master Tang Han couldn't help but frown them again. Although they have been in decline for a thousand years, a camel that's starved to death is still bigger than a horse. The supreme elder from the Jade Pure sect approached me before, hoping that the righteous path could join forces against the Raincoat Holy Church. I didn't agree because as long as that person

lives, the Raincoat Holy Church won't perish. The leader of the Raincoat Holy Church was as spirited as you in his youth. He fell into the demon path by chance and became the leader of the Raincoat Holy Church. This would be a good opportunity to test his strength. But don't be reckless. If you're not a match, retreat immediately. Don't worry, I may be bold, but I'm not foolish. Seven years later, Han Ju was looking at his social circle again. After my disciple and Zhou Fan were captured, their cultivation levels actually increased, but their status hasn't changed.

It seems they're just pretending to compromise. As for sect leader Li, he's either being beaten up or on his way to be beaten up. At this moment, the chick suddenly asked Han Ju, what's the outside world like? I wanna see what's beyond the mountain. Now, the chick's strength is equivalent to an energy cultivation realm eight-flayer cultivator. Not even all humans could achieve such speed, but its intellect is growing and it's becoming increasingly curious about the outside world. It seems I have to brainwash him, Han Ju thought. So he said, the outside world is very dangerous.

Many people wanna eat you. You see, these are your forbidden zones. Remember, you can't go there. You must become absolutely invincible before you venture out. Otherwise, you'll surely die. Even I dare not recklessly venture out. The chick was immediately scared. Master, stop. I won't go out, Han Ju smirked, brainwashing successful. Just then, Li Qingzi hurried over. Elder Han, there's trouble. Maple Valley has been destroyed by the Raincoat Holy Church. The Valley Master sent a message before his death, saying that within the Raincoat Holy Church, there are 10 spirit transformation cultivators powerful enough to sweep through

the Great Swallow cultivation world. Their next target might very well be our Jade Pure Sac. As soon as the words were spoken, Han Ju quickly packed his bags. Seeing this, Li Qingzi sincerely exclaimed, you act swiftly in a crisis, reliable and steady. I indeed wasn't wrong about you. However, after packing, Han Ju said, then shouldn't we run away quickly? Li Qingzi was petrified on the spot, then clutched at his legs. Listen to yourself. Is that something you should say? Besides, where can we disciples flee to? Even if we did run, there would be no place

for us to stand. Those sects would only swallow us up. The Jade Pure Sect would still be doomed. Han Ju was about to say, it doesn't matter if the Jade Pure Sect is gone, as long as the people are still alive. When the system presented him with choices, faced with the annihilation of the Jade Pure Sect, you have the following options. One, run away immediately. Be pursued by the Raincoat Holy Church. Wander the world and receive a magical tool. Two, defend the sect. In life, one cannot always retreat. After repelling the Raincoat Holy Church, receive

a spiritual treasure, a sword technique manual, and a destiny beast egg. Faced with the choices presented by the system, Han Ju fell into silence. Indeed, where could I flee? Constantly running and wandering the world is not the life I aspire to. Perhaps I could join them if we can't beat them, but that wouldn't be laying low anymore. It would be cowardice. Han Ju then asked, Li Qingzi, when will they come to attack? Li Qingzi replied, the Raincoat Holy Church still needs time to clean up the aftermath at Maple Valley. We probably have about 10 years.

At this moment, Han Ju placed his hand on Li Qingzi's shoulder. Sect leader, why has our Jade Pure Sect been targeted continuously? I used to think the Jade Pure Sect was very strong. It seems like you've brought the Jade Pure Sect to heights it doesn't belong to. Li Qingzi awkwardly admitted, actually, the Jade Pure Sect is very powerful. It's just that the strongest among us, our founding ancestor, has been gone without a trace for 500 years. If he were here, the Raincoat Holy Church wouldn't dare to touch us. A thousand years ago, he utterly defeated

the Raincoat Holy Church, making their leader so traumatized that he became reclusive. Han Ju immediately understood, so the Raincoat Holy Church is seeking revenge on us? Li Qingzi became somewhat embarrassed. I and Master have already used the messaging treasure left by the ancestor. As long as the ancestor returns, the Raincoat Holy Church will no longer be a threat. He then held Han Ju's hand with deep emotion. We must get through this crisis. As long as we do, you can continue your cultivation in peace without threats. Reluctantly, Han Ju could only agree. But the next second,

he kicked Li Qingzi away. But let's make it clear first, if we can't beat them, I'll run away immediately. Li Qingzi immediately reassured him. Of course, that's understood. Then Han Ju asked, does the sect have any elixirs suitable for the nascent soul realm? Li Qingzi admitted, our sect is in dire need of alchemists. You'll have to figure that out yourself. Without saying another word, Han Ju turned and walked away. Farewell. Li Qingzi, in a panic, shouted from behind, Hey, hey, hey, we just agreed. You're sticking with Jade Pure sect, remember? However, Han Ju clarified, just

kidding. I'm going to buy a beast control bag to make it convenient for me to run away when the time comes. On the way, Han Ju didn't forget to speak to the chick. Little chick, see, it really is dangerous. Even if we don't provoke trouble, there are enemies who want to kill us. Ah, master, why don't we quietly run away? The chick suggested. Hearing this, Han Ju felt reassured. Indeed, you've truly learned from me. Soon after purchasing the beast control bag, Han Ju was ready to return when the system alerted him to the presence of

an innate destiny individual. Surprised, Han Ju thought, another innate destiny individual? Jade Pure sect really is a place of great fortune. He then opened the profile to check the information about the person of fate, Xian Qingjun. She was at the foundation establishment, realm third layer, but her true identity was that of a demon lord's moral body with innate Tao heart and exceptional talent. 800 years ago, the demon lord wanted to break through and ascend, hence creating a moral body. The original self was sealed deep within the primordial spirit. The moral body traveled the human world,

experiencing all aspects of life to solidify the Tao heart, leaving her footprints across all the heavens and lands. Three years ago, she joined Jade Pure sect and has been lying low ever since. After seeing the detailed information about this individual, Han Ju immediately panicked. An innate Tao heart demon lord who was about to ascend. At the very least, this was a great vehicle cultivator. At this moment, he noticed the only woman nearby, presuming her to be demon lord Xian Qingjun. Just as Han Ju planned to sneak away quietly, he was noticed by Xian Qingjun. When

the system informed him that Xian Qingjun's favorability towards him had reached one star, his expression drastically changed, cursing his unfortunate charm. As he instinctively looked back, his gaze met Xian Qingjun's in the air, causing her favorability towards Han Ju to increase to two stars. Terrified, Han Ju immediately activated the wind god technique to make his escape, with the chick also expressing fear. Master, that woman's gaze. Is she going to eat you? The outside world is indeed dangerous. Upon returning to his cave abode, it wasn't long before Xian Qingjun arrived at the entrance. Observing the words

Han Ju had written on the door, a moment of patience leads to a vast ocean and sky. Xian Qingjun pondered and actually found some truth in them, growing even more interested in Han Ju. I'm becoming more and more interested in you. I like to save the tasty ones for last. I'll visit again next time, she said before turning to leave. Watching Xian Qingjun's departing figure, Han Ju finally breathed a sigh of relief. It must have been the formation that kept her from finding the entrance. However, he was immensely troubled at this moment, setting aside Raincoat

Holy Church. Now I've attracted a demon lord. Although she appears to be at the foundation establishment realm, she possesses at least great vehicle strength. Who can withstand that? I hope she forgets about me. After that, Han Ju continued his seclusion for another seven years, reaching the eighth layer of the nascent soul realm. However, he still felt his progress was too slow. I must break through to the spirit transformation before Raincoat Holy Church attacks, he thought. Han Ju then checked the recent updates and discovered that Li Qingzi had been seriously injured in an attack by a

fellow sect member. Han Ju was puzzled. I thought I had checked for traitors. Suddenly, he remembered Guan Yu Gang and realized what had happened. After checking his master's updates and seeing nothing significant had happened, he breathed a sigh of relief. Just then, a voice came from outside. Fellow Taoist, may I visit you? The visitor was Xian Qingjun, who had attempted to visit twice in the past seven years without success. She hasn't tried to force her way in, so it seems she means no harm. But three times is too much. If I ignore her again, she

might just tear down my place. Upon seeing Han Ju come out, Xian Qingjun smiled. You finally showed up. At this moment, the chick was terrified and began to cry, begging Xian Qingjun, no, please, I beg you, don't eat my master. This left Xian Qingjun completely bewildered. Han Ju quickly punched the chick, sending it flying. I am Han Ju. May I ask why fellow Taoist visits my humble abode? I am Xian Qingjun, a disciple from Jade Bamboo Peak. I encountered you in the inner sect years ago and was struck by what it means to be stunningly

peerless. Since then, your image has been imprinted in my heart. Your handsomeness is truly unmatched in this world. Hearing such lavish praise, Han Ju didn't know how to respond and after a moment, said softly, thank you for the compliments. If there's nothing else, may I leave? However, Xian Qingjun stopped Han Ju, taking out a card. I wish to offer a treasure and hope you will not refuse. This is the Heavenly Immoral Mansion Order. The Heavenly Immoral Mansion is a sacred place for cultivation in the cultivation world. Possessing this card grants access to the sacred land.

One who leaves there, even at their worst, can achieve nascent soul. Kid, I don't believe you're not tempted. With your splendid appearance, I'm determined to have you. Yet Han Ju said, I don't wish to leave the Jade Pure sect. I plan to cultivate here for the rest of my life. Xian Qingjun was stunned for a moment before she turned around and continued to rummage for something. You don't fancy it, elder brother? No worries, I have more. Here is a Earth Spirit Sword, capable of easily slaying Golden Core Realm experts. Seeing Han Ju remain unmoved, Xian

Qingjun pulled out a bottle of elixir. Then, I'll gift you a bottle of elixir for breaking through to the Golden Core Realm. But Han Ju was still indifferent. I'll also give you a body refining technique plus three spell manuals and more. Watching Xian Qingjun continuously pulling out items, Han Ju hastily stopped her and then revealed his true cultivation level. Actually, I am already at the nascent soul realm. Seeing Han Ju's cultivation, Xian Qingjun immediately guessed that Han Ju was the godslaying elder. At that moment, Han Ju also received a prompt from the system indicating that

Xian Qingjun's fondness for him had increased to four stars. Knowing Han Ju's identity made Xian Qingjun even happier. She took out a bottle of elixir. This is a first grade nascent soul pill, which can help you break through to the spirit transformation realm. Is one bottle enough? If not, I can give you another. Han Ju couldn't resist any longer. Cautiously, he asked junior sister, what exactly is your background? Xian Qingjun, smiling, said, my identity isn't important, but I would like to become cultivation partners with senior brother. Would you be willing? Han Ju was stunned by

the proposal and then said, you're able to offer so many treasures. Surely you're no ordinary person. Could you possibly help us fight against the raincoat holy church? Xian Qingjun outright refused. No, I'm only interested in senior brother. Figures, mobilizing a demon lord was never going to be easy. After a moment, Han Ju cautiously asked, if I agree, what would be the cost? Xian Qingjun covered her mouth and giggled. The cost would be to cultivate and become stronger together. Would you like that? Immediately after her words, the system prompt appeared. Xian Qingjun wants to become your

cultivation partner. You have the following choices. One, refuse. How can a male cultivator be threatened by a woman? You will gain the enmity of a demon lord and receive a sword Dao divine ability inheritance. Two, accept. Become cultivation partners and be entwined in fate and fortune, gaining the favor of a demon lord and a divine ability inheritance. Seeing these choices, Han Ju was speechless. Is the system doing this on purpose? Even the font size is so different. Meanwhile, inside the raincoat sect, members were repeatedly beating Yang Tiandong and Zhou Fan until they grew tired and

stopped. These two from the Jade Pure sect are really stubborn. It's bad enough they try to escape every year, but even after being captured and beaten, they still don't give up. However, to unite the people, the sect leader won't allow us to kill the prisoners. They lamented before deciding to go out for a drink to relax. As they left, Zhou Fan made a vow. If I ever achieve great power, I will ensure that the raincoat sect is utterly destroyed. Lying on the ground, Yang Tiandong clenched his teeth and said, so this was your plan? We

got caught before we could even make it out. Zhou Fan felt incredibly wrong. Who knew there would be someone training a giant lizard on the roof? With a sigh, Yang Tiandong said, brother Zhou, let's not struggle anymore. Let's wait for my master to come. Zhou Fan replied irritably, your master, the Slayer Elder, sorry, but he won't come. Hearing this, Yang Tiandong became agitated. Nonsense, my master is so powerful that no one in the Jade Pure sect can match him. If he doesn't come, who will? Your master indeed possesses the greatest talent I have ever seen,

and his strength is a fact. But he fears death. This last sentence, he only dared to mutter to himself in his mind. Hearing Zhou Fan's affirmation, Yang Tiandong's face lit up with admiration. Right, right, my master is just that awesome. He must have come already. Maybe he's watching me from the shadows, wanting to see if I can endure hardships and if my Dao heart is stable enough. Zhou Fan rolled his eyes. This kid must be delusional. Better not to say anything and leave this poor child with some hope. Meanwhile, inside Han Ju's cave, just after

reluctantly agreeing to become Xian Qingjun's cultivation partner under her threats and inducements, Han Ju received the system reward of the divine ability Summersault Cloud. He also received three bottles of nascent soul elixir from Xian Qingjun. No choice, she just offered too much. The chicken watched Han Ju, asking, Master, will she eat you? Han Ju immediately shut its mouth with a kick and poured an elixir into his mouth. Don't speak ill of my cultivation partner. After swallowing the elixir, he instantly felt his six spiritual powers cleansed and transparent, with the efficiency of absorption accelerated once again

after many years. The medicine's effect was indeed potent. Two years later, with the help of the elixir, Han Ju successfully reached the peak of the nascent soul ninth layer. He habitually used the system to check for the strongest nearby individuals, and upon confirming there was no one else, he could finally prepare for his breakthrough with peace of mind. Just as he was about to go to the Myriad Demon Realm for the breakthrough, Li Qingzi came running excitedly, shouting, Good news, Huang Jihao was captured by the Raincoat Holy Church. After challenging them, which angered the Vermilion

Bird Sword sect, they are preparing to join us in attacking the Raincoat Holy Church. The situation is turning around. Hearing this, Han Ju also got excited. I really love Huang Jihao now. He really knows how to stir things up. And this time he did it right. But Li Qingzi immediately continued. So I plan to invite this time. Han Ju suddenly had a bad feeling and quickly interrupted Li Qingzi. I understand what you mean. You wanna take one elder away and are worried about the impact on the sect, right? That's not what I meant. Send all

the elders if you must. With me alone, Jade Pure sect is well defended. Li Qingzi immediately became so frustrated that his nose turned red. You really are a survivor. But then Han Ju added another sentence. I am about to break through to the spirit transformation. I need some time. Li Qingzi was suddenly stunned. But the next second, the situation changed dramatically. Good, you focus on your breakthrough. Leave the task of dealing with Raincoat Holy Church to us. After Li Qingzi left, Han Ju went to the Myriad Demon Realm. As he released his aura, a terrifying

heavenly might enveloped this small world. The demons and beasts of the Myriad Demon Realm were so frightened that they scattered. Moments later, a huge purple lightning engulfed Han Ju. On the other hand, Li Qingzi, disguised as a member of Raincoat Holy Church, arrived at their sect. When the gatekeeper asked for a token, Li Qingzi accidentally showed Jade Pure sect sect leader's token. The gatekeeper was stunned to see it. Realizing his mistake, Li Qingzi quickly took back the token and replaced it with a Raincoat Holy Church's steward token along with a cherished edition of a very

special issue. The gatekeeper immediately let Li Qingzi pass and was delighted to start looking through the fairy special. Li Qingzi smirked coldly. Mph, kid, everything is ready. Just need to set up the teleportation formation. Soon, all members of Raincoat Holy Church received an order to rush to the sect entrance. Shou Fan, seeing that almost all the guards had left the prison, sensed that something must have happened. Yang Tiandong suddenly got excited. Could it be that master is coming to save me? Shou Fan also got excited. With so many people mobilized, it must be the sect

engaging in a group battle. This is a rare opportunity. Should we try to escape again? But this time, Yang Tiandong refused to participate in any plan. Let's just forget it and wait for them to come save us. While the two were arguing, suddenly, a crack appeared in the ceiling and a huge object fell down from above. Amidst the dust, a voice proclaimed, all trapped disciples of Jade Pure Sect, I've come to save you. Seeing the newcomer was Li Qingzi excited Yang Tiandong and Shou Fan tremendously. On the side of Jade Pure Sect, Han Ju successfully

advanced to the spirit transformation realm, earning a divine ability from the system as a reward, 10,000 sword divine sect. This ability summons the shadows of ancient swords from the river of history with the number summoned related to one's own spiritual power. What thrilled Han Ju the most was that after breaking through to spirit transformation, his lifespan reached 3,000 years, finally bringing the hope of longevity within reach. Seeing Han Ju return, the chicken finally relaxed. Master, you're finally back. I thought that woman had eaten you. Han Ju, speechless, tapped on its head. What are you always

thinking about in that chicken brain of yours? The chicken immediately responded with a grievance. Master, am I not a phoenix? But you are a chicken now. Only through diligent cultivation can you become a phoenix. All right, how long does diligent cultivation take? Then, Han Ju checked his social feed. Your friend Guan Yugang was heavily injured in an attack by Raincoat Holy Church. Your friend Li Qingzi was heavily injured in an attack by Raincoat Holy Church. Your friend Shou Fan has escaped from Raincoat Holy Church. Your disciple Yang Tiandong has escaped from the Raincoat people. He

silently cheered for them in his heart. Suddenly, Xian Qingjun appeared behind Han Ju. I heard our godslayer elder has made a breakthrough. Han Ju was startled. You, what brings you here? Seeing Xian Qingjun leaning towards him, Han Ju suddenly thought, she's not going to force me to do that, right? Han Ju nervously looked at Xian Qingjun, only to hear her say, I've come to say goodbye. I'm preparing to leave. Han Ju was taken aback. Leave? It might be many years before we meet again, so I wanted to see you one last time before I go.

If there's anything you want, I'll try to fulfill it. Han Ju's face lit up with joy, but he feigned concern. Can you not leave? Without you, my days will be lonely. Xian Qingjun, seeing Han Ju's reaction, wanted to hit him out of frustration. Your face seems all too eager. Dream on. I will need you, but not now. Don't expect me to spend all day with you in discussion. The time hasn't come yet. After pondering for a moment, Han Ju said, Ben, do you have any elixir that can improve the cultivation of Spirit Transformation Rome? Xian

Qingjun immediately took out four bottles of elixir from her sleeve. These are Spirit Transformation Spirit Enhancing Pills. I only have these four bottles on me. I'll give them all to you. Han Ju quickly expressed his thanks. How can I accept this? Thank you so much. Xian Qingjun lifted Han Ju's chin with her hand. I won't see this face of yours for many years, and I really will miss it. Although you're at Spirit Transformation now, you're not invincible. Stay in Jade Pure Sect and cultivate well. Don't wander around. The cultivation world is very dangerous. My pretty

boy, I'm leaving. After saying this, Xian Qingjun walked away. Seeing Xian Qingjun leave, Han Ju finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seems she was just passing through Jade Pure Sect and is now going somewhere else to seek the Tao. The chicken was also very happy. Finally, I don't have to worry about the master being eaten by her. He he he. At this moment, at the headquarters of the Raincoat Holy Church, the sect leader is discussing the war with the elders. Vermilion Bird Sword's sect now wants to fight to the death with us. What do

you elders think? In my opinion, why not just kill Huang Jihao to shock them? As soon as this was mentioned, all the elders echoed in agreement. However, the sect leader's face was full of worries, but they are so bold. Could it be that they have the support of other forces in secret? As soon as this was mentioned, all the elders became restless upon hearing this. This seemed too timid. One by one, they passionately persuaded the sect leader not to hesitate. Seeing everyone's emotions running high, the sect leader said helplessly, it's not about hesitating. I'm just

considering the worst possible outcomes. Finally, the grand elder could not stand it any longer. Sect leader, you are too cautious. No, too timid. Our plans have been delayed over and over again. We can't delay any further. If you are not at ease, I have a compromise. A few of us elders will launch a surprise attack on their main camp. Their main force is entangled with ours, so their sect will definitely be vulnerable. Hearing the plan to sneak attack, all the other elders got excited. The sect leader hesitantly asked, must we fight? As soon as this

was mentioned, all the elders looked at him with fiery eyes. The sect leader, Huang Zuntian, could only say, all right, then I will personally take action this time. I will go to the Vermilion Bird Sword sect and the Jade Pure sect with Master Shang Cui. Does this satisfy you? The elders and others immediately burst into cheers. Sect leader is wise. After so many years, finally, at this moment, the grand elder looked helplessly at Master Shang Cui. Master Shang Cui, please be firm when the time comes. I'm worried the sect leader will delay again. I would

love nothing more. Meanwhile, after Han Zhu's continuous heart cultivation, he had advanced his six realms of reincarnation technique to the fifth level and also comprehended an advanced version of the six paths soul absorption new divine ability. It allows the absorption of souls to be stored deep within one's primordial spirit, not only protecting the souls, but also imprisoning them. And it can mark the souls with six path marks. These six path marks will last forever. And no matter how many times the person reincarnates, as long as the marks remain, one can pursue them across reincarnations. But

Han Zhu still felt his cultivation was not enough. Even if the threat from the Raincoat Holy Church was not significant, there was still the great enemy, the monster-taming demon sect. Previously, Xiao, who was just an elder, had the cultivation of the fusion void realm. The foundation of this demon sect is ridiculously deep. While Han Zhu was pondering, Chan Yue suddenly came to visit. Master has asked me to invite you to Jade Seclusion Peak for a visit. This matter is very important. It's rare for Xishuan Fairy to invite Han Zhu. So naturally, he had to give

face. Upon arriving at the hall, most of the disciples were present. The eldest disciple, Lu Sanqin, had already graduated to become a core disciple. The current eldest disciple was the former seventh senior brother, Meng He. Soon, everyone was shocked to discover that Han Zhu was sitting directly next to Xishuan Fairy. The disciples were initially puzzled, but quickly guessed the truth. Could this person be the godslaying elder? When Meng He first learned of this, he was shocked for several days. But Meng He also immediately instructed everyone. Listen well, everyone. The identity of Elder Han must not

be disclosed. Whoever dares to spread it will be expelled from the sect. Understand? Han Zhu was also full of doubts about this matter. What is Master planning to do? Could it be that she wants to pass her position to me? How should I refuse? While he was troubled, Xishuan Fairy slowly began to speak. Recently, I hope that everyone will not enter into closed-door cultivation and will patrol the outer sect of Jade Pure Sect instead. The sect leader has sent back a message. In the letter, he mentioned that they are currently joining forces with Vermilion Bird

Sword's sect to attack the Raincoat Holy Church, and the imprisoned disciples have been successively rescued. However, he is worried about the Raincoat Holy Church attacking our sect because they have only encountered five spirit transformation experts. The other five must have other arrangements. Among the Eighteen Peaks' disciples, only our Jade Seclusion Peak has contributed the least, not only because we have fewer people, but also because of the sect leader's partiality towards us. Do you understand? All the disciples were instantly ignited. Years of hard cultivation. It's time to draw the sword. At this time, Xishuan Fairy looked

towards Hanju. Elder Han, do you have confidence in defending against a surprise attack by the strong ones from the Raincoat Holy Church? Only then did Hanju understand why he was called here. It was to serve as a reassurance. With no choice, Hanju responded. I do have some experience in dealing with strong opponents. Hearing Hanju's humble reply, the disciples thought to themselves that they were in good hands. Then, Xishuan Fairy secretly transmitted a message to Hanju. How far has your cultivation progressed? Hanju, however, said, Level One, how could your cultivation have not advanced after so many

years of seclusion? Following that, Hanju said, it's Spirit Transformation Level One. Xishuan Fairy was immediately stunned. He broke through the nascent soul realm only a few years ago, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the Spirit Transformation realm. You wanted to see me fail? It seems you no longer see me as your master. Well, that's all right. As a master, I haven't really taught you anything. Anyway, you can ask for anything you need. Your grace towards the Jade Pure Sect far exceeds what the Jade Pure Sect has done for you. There's no need

to be polite. Hanju thought for a moment and said, I need elixirs for the Spirit Transformation realm. Xishuan Fairy said, We actually don't have those. Then try your best to enhance the spiritual energy in my dwelling. I will find another way. Xishuan Fairy thought to herself, Hanju is growing too fast. Soon, this small temple won't be able to contain this great Buddha. She turned to ask Hanju, How much longer can you stay in Jade Pure Sect? People aim for higher places, and water flows to lower ones. You are growing quickly, and perhaps one day, Jade

Pure Sect will become a hindrance to you. Hearing his master's concerns, Hanju solemnly said, Master, rest assured. If I wanted to leave, I would have done so a long time ago. Besides, even if there were other places to go, the troubles that should come would still not be avoided. Rather than hiding here and there, it's better to cultivate peacefully here. Xishuan Fairy asked with some doubt, The cultivation world has many sects stronger than Jade Pure Sect. Aren't you afraid that constantly cultivating here will make it difficult for your realm to advance? Hanju then stated, Master,

you can trust my aptitude and character. If there ever comes a day when I wish to leave, I will certainly inform you in advance. Meanwhile, he thought to himself, Go to a broader world to pursue the Tao. Nonsense. I'd rather be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a vast ocean. Isn't living a peaceful life wonderful? While they were speaking, the system alerted Hanju. A powerful individual has intruded into the Jade Pure Sect. At this moment, Huang Zuntian and Master Shan Kuei had arrived outside the mountain gate, peering at the

Jade Pure Sect from the mountaintop. Jade Pure Sect seems so weak. Could it be a trick? Shan Kuei stated, There are no spirit transformation realm experts in the entire Jade Pure Sect, not even more than 10 nascent souls. However, Huang Zuntian's sixth sense told him something was amiss. Master Shan Kuei urged Huang Zuntian to make a move quickly. Opportunities like this are fleeting. However, Huang Zuntian hesitated again and decided to observe further. Seeing the sect leader's indecisive appearance, Shan Kuei could only curse inwardly. If it weren't for the fact that I can't beat you, I

would have taken the position of sect leader As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Watching the two men in front of him, Han Ju didn't dare to approach rashly. He first used a simulation trial in the system to test their strength. Unexpectedly, their abilities were not as formidable as he thought, which is why he dared to come over. While Huang Zuntian and Shan Kuei were still arguing about whether to attack or not, they heard someone behind them asking, Did the Raincoat Holy Church only send you two? Huang Zuntian

was greatly surprised. I didn't even notice his presence. Jade Pure sect really is full of tricks. Not knowing the strength of the newcomer, Huang Zuntian took a few steps back. However, Shan Kuei, seeing that there was only one person, angrily shouted, Boy, you're quite arrogant. I'd like to see for myself how capable you are. With that, Shan Kuei formed a six-direction sky-devouring seal, aiming to strike at Han Ju. Huang Zuntian wanted to intervene, but it was too late. Seeing that Shan Kuei wanted to act rather than talk, Han Ju asked solemnly, I heard that the

leader of the holy sect does not like to kill. Why then are you targeting the Jade Pure sect? Huang Zuntian was momentarily at a loss for words and couldn't respond. Meanwhile, Shan Kuei had already formed a seal and smashed it towards Han Ju, only to see Han Ju activate the three-pure shadow sword, a flash of golden light, and before Shan Kuei could react, he was turned into a mist of blood with a puff. Seeing his subordinate, who had the strength of the seventh level of spirit transformation, being killed by a sword strike from this young

man in front of him, Huang Zuntian trembled and said, Indeed, there was deceit. The primordial spirit of Shan Kuei, finally understood why their leader had always been so cautious. Indeed, in the cultivation world, there are heavens beyond our heaven. Just as he thought of escaping, his primordial spirit was also crushed into oblivion by Han Ju with two fingers. Huang Zuntian wanted to intervene, but it was too late. Even as a ninth level spirit transformation realm expert, he still couldn't see through Han Ju's true strength. This person must be beyond spirit transformation, probably having broken through

the fusion void realm. Huang Zuntian, in powerless fury, threw out a threat. You wait. The Sun Code Holy Church will not rest until we are dead. Turning around, he took to his heels, leaving Han Ju momentarily speechless. Huang Zuntian, employing every trick in the book to flee like lightning while muttering, My sixth sense was indeed correct. Jade pure sect actually harbors such a being. Shan Kuei, oh Shan Kuei, when my cultivation progresses, I will surely avenge you. At this moment, Han Ju, riding the somersault cloud, chased after him, pointing his sword at Huang Zuntian. He

said, I do not plan to let you go. To eliminate the weeds, you must remove the roots. Do you understand? By then, Huang Zuntian had no choice but to beg for mercy. Actually, I didn't want to fight either, but as the sect leader, I must take responsibility for the entire sect. Besides, if it weren't for me holding them back, who knows how many jade pure sect disciples would have died. Look at them now. They are all alive and well. As long as you let me go, I will definitely order my followers not to attack jade

pure sect again. From now on, we will stay out of each other's way. Really? For a moment, Huang Zuntian thought there was a chance for mercy, but then a sword light flashed and the heaven punishing demon god sword instantly came slashing down. Han Ju shook his sword and said to Huang Zuntian's primordial spirit, previously, you couldn't stop the war between the two sects. What makes you think you can do so after you return? At that moment, the system sent a notification. Huang Zuntian has developed a two-star enmity towards you. Han Ju chuckled coldly, able to

revive from death? No. Is it an illusion? A substitute? Wait, this talisman, could it be a life substitute talisman? I've heard it's quite valuable. You really want all out, huh? At this time, with only his primordial spirit remaining, Huang Zuntian, using the last of his spiritual energy, had already activated the teleportation treasure to return to the Raincoat Holy Church. As long as I escape back, there's still hope, unless there's a spell that can launch hundreds of attacks instantaneously to prevent the teleportation formation. Huang Zuntian did not believe Han Ju had such power. Yet, Han Ju

pointed his sword to the sky and countless golden lights surged upwards, turning into sword energies that shot down like a Gatling gun in rapid succession. 10,000 swords returned to origin. At this moment, Huang Zuntian had no thoughts of resistance left, only managing to scream out his deepest fear with the last of his energy. This unusual surge of spiritual power attracted the Jade Pure Sex Guardian Cultivators. The crowd arrived only to be stunned by the scene before them. The mountain at the main entrance had been flattened, and without a doubt, everyone knew who was responsible. Back

in his cave dwelling, Han Ju had tied up Huang Zuntian's last wisp of primordial spirit like a hairy crab. In fear, Huang Zuntian asked Han Ju, who exactly are you? Why can you use that mysterious sex secret technique? 10,000 swords returned to origin. A chicken nearby was sizing up whether this thing could be eaten, only to hear Han Ju pompously introduce himself as Loki. Both the chicken and Huang Zuntian were baffled. Seeing their dumbfounded looks, Han Ju urged him to quickly spill all the details about the Raincoat Holy Church. Does your Raincoat Holy Church have

something like a supreme elder? Yes, but he has already left the Great Swallow. How did you become the sect leader? I have my own unique skills, which I keep secret. After learning that the Raincoat Holy Church no longer had any notable elder experts, Han Ju lost interest in Huang Zuntian. Fearing his primordial spirit might be crushed, Huang Zuntian pleaded with Han Ju for mercy. Sir, can you spare me? I can join the Jade Pure sect and redeem myself through good deeds. Han Ju didn't want to destroy him just yet, so he employed the Six Paths

Soul Absorption to imprison Huang Zuntian's primordial spirit deep within his own primordial spirit. Now that Huang Zuntian was captured, the remnants of the Raincoat Holy Church were no longer a concern. The chicken contemplated. The master finally doesn't have to run away. Meanwhile, Huang Zuntian cursed in his heart, those damn elders. If I get out alive, I'll kill you all. Just as Han Ju had dealt with the strongest force of the Raincoat Holy Church, the allied forces of the Jade Pure sect and Vermilion Bird Sword sect were fiercely battling at the Raincoat Holy Church's stronghold. Unable

to contact their sect leader, the Raincoat sect disciples were considering retreating into the sect to regroup when they encountered a man chasing after them on a sword. Last time, you people ganged up on me without any martial honor. Today, if you don't explain where your sect leader is, don't blame me, Huang Jihao, for being ruthless. The Raincoat sect disciples, having no desire to fight, were thinking of fleeing but were then blocked by Li Qingzi and others from the Jade Pure sect. The Jade Pure sect had already taken down the Raincoat Holy Church's sign and informed

the Raincoat sect disciples, your sect leader, on his way to sneak attack the Jade Pure sect, encountered our godslaying elder. Now, our Jade Pure sect is safe and sound while your sect leader has yet to return. I suppose there's no need for us to say more. Upon receiving this devastating news, the disciples of the Raincoat sect completely fell apart, directly raising the white flag to negotiate peace and surrender. After the situation calmed down, Han Zhu resumed his low-profile lifestyle. The elixirs given by Xianqin Jun were also consumed, and his cultivation speed became increasingly slower. His

cultivation level stagnated at the third level of the spirit transformation realm. Just as Han Zhu was contemplating settling for this, the voice of sect leader Li came from outside the cave. It turned out he had rescued Han Zhu's unfortunate disciple. Upon seeing his master again, Yang Tiandong cried tears of joy. Do you know how much suffering I've endured these years? I always believed that, Master. You would come to save me. It was this belief that kept me going. Han Zhu didn't dare to admit that he was afraid to venture out due to fear of death.

To his surprise, Yang Tiandong hugged Han Zhu, weeping with gratitude. The sect leader told me everything. If it weren't for you standing guard over the Jade Pure sect, he wouldn't have dared to make a move to rescue us. You are my god. Master, patting his foolish disciple's head, Han Zhu felt a twinge of guilt. You've done well. From now on, I will impart all my knowledge to you. At this moment, the system also notified that Yang Tiandong's favorability towards Han Zhu had increased to five stars. Li Qingzi, witnessing the reunion of master and disciple, said,

congratulations. All the Jade Pure sect disciples who were kidnapped have been safely rescued. However, there's still an issue I'd like to discuss with Elder Han. My insider in the Raincoat Holy Church reported that sect leader Huang Zuntian disappeared near the Jade Pure sect. Just after returning to the sect, we also discovered that a hill near the North Gate was missing. Was this your doing? Han Zhu nodded in acknowledgement, learning that Huang Zuntian had been eliminated. Li Qingzi was overjoyed. Like a 500-pound fat man, you are the greatest hero of this battle. Thanks to you taking

care of Huang Zuntian, we were able to destroy the Raincoat Holy Church's den smoothly. Now everything is great. The leader of the Raincoat Holy Church is dead. They are no longer a threat. For Jade Pure sect to produce a person of your caliber, it's truly heaven sent. Seeing him dancing with joy, Han Zhu advised, well, now that this matter is settled, sect leader, you should also stop wandering around. Focus on your cultivation and avoid getting beaten up again. At that moment, Li Qingzi remembered something important. That's right. In half a year, our ancestral master will

return to the Jade Pure sect. And in five more years, it will be the thousand-year anniversary of the founding of the Jade Pure sect. We will invite heroes from all sects to attend. I will promote you, let them all know of your feat in slaying Huang Zuntian, and make your name known throughout the cultivation world. Hearing this, Han Zhu immediately spoke out to stop him. No, you must not let them know that the leader of the Raincoat Holy Church fell by my hand. I don't wanna be in the limelight. I just wanna cultivate in peace.

Seeing Han Zhu trying to evade, Li Qingzi also shared his thoughts. But this way, they will hesitate because of you and will no longer target Jade Pure sect. Han Zhu then said, I have already taken on quite a bit of karma for Jade Pure sect. If they join forces and come after us, I can easily flee. But what about Jade Pure sect? Will you be able to withstand it then? Hearing Han Zhu say this, Li Qingzi could no longer insist. In that case, I will add more spiritual energy to your cave dwelling to aid your

cultivation. Once the ancestral master returns with heavenly treasures, surely they will help you make further progress. As Li Qingzi took his leave from Han Zhu, he muttered, Ancestor, you must return soon. We can't afford this little ancestor. After successfully eliminating the Raincoat Holy Church, the system once again rewarded Han Zhu. He was awarded the five-ranked spiritual treasure, Nine Stars Spirit-Stepping Boots, which not only allows one to tread on spiritual energy and absorb it, but also enhances teleportation divine ability and movement speed. This was exactly what Han Zhu wanted, practically a tool perfect for escaping. He

also received a manual for the Heartless Flying Sword technique. This sword technique, which continuously diminishes desires and passions, has tremendous killing power. Han Zhu thought it would be best to leave this sword technique for Yang Tiandong. Unexpectedly, the system rewarded a divine beast egg containing a chaotic heavenly dog that can eat the moon. However, Han Zhu was puzzled why the dog was hatched from an egg and wondered how to incubate it. At this moment, to Yang Tiandong and the chicken, it seemed as if Han Zhu was conjuring heavenly treasures out of thin air. Could Master

be wholesaling treasures? Looking at the heavenly dog egg and then at the chicken, an excellent idea occurred to Han Zhu. Little chicken, I need a favor from you. Master, I'm a male, you know. Half a year later, the day finally arrived for the founding ancestor to return to the Jade Pure Sect. All the disciples gathered, standing in solemn preparation to welcome him. Soon, the disciples pointed to the sky in shock, seeing a huge void vortex appear with an elderly man holding a massive monster slowly walking out of it. The elder laughed heartily upon seeing the

disciples of the Jade Pure Sect. Even his laughter exuding a pressure far surpassing that of Duan Tongtian. The supreme elder shouted, form the array. As the grounds formation lit up with golden light, everyone unfurled a welcome banner for the Jade Pure Sect ancestor. The supreme elder asked the elder in the sky with a cutesy tone, Master, do you like it? Is it grand enough? Pleased with such a grand welcome ceremony, the Nine Cauldrons Sage expressed his satisfaction. It's much more grand than when I left. This fusion void realm monster was just something I killed along

the way. Take it down for alchemy and to reward the disciples. The people on the ground unanimously praised the ancestor's wisdom. The Nine Cauldrons Sage then asked Li Qingzi and the others, has there been any outstanding disciple in the sect during my absence? As a reward, I can personally transmit some skills to him for a period of time. The supreme elder and Li Qingzi began to recount the various deeds of Han Ju. Nine Cauldrons Sage said, where's this outstanding disciple? I would like to meet him. Li Qingzi replied, Elder Han has always been cultivating in

his cave dwelling and seldom comes out. Nine Cauldrons Sage was not upset. No hurry, I will personally visit him in a few days. Since the hatching of the heavenly dog egg, Han Ju's cave dwelling had become lively, best described by the chaos of chickens flying and dogs jumping, rendering the place anything but peaceful. Although the dog was hatched by the chicken, it was naturally arrogant and did not acknowledge the chicken as its mother. The two fools spent their days fighting each other. Elder Han, your two demonic pets are quite extraordinary. Where did you get them?

Han Ju turned to see the question came from an elderly man he had not seen before. Who are you? I am the founding ancestor, Nine Cauldrons Sage. Seeing the ancestor had arrived, Han Ju immediately got up and respectfully greeted him with a fist and palm salute. In fact, he had simulated battles against the ancestor many times in the system, but facing the ancestor's fusion void realm level eight strength, Han Ju had no chance of winning. Nine Cauldrons Sage thanked Han Ju. I must thank you, young friend, for stepping forward during the crisis of the Jade

Pure Sect. As a token of gratitude, I offer you an opportunity. Are you willing to take it? A thousand years ago, I left the Great Swallow cultivation world to seek the land immortal, eventually reaching overseas. After years of adventure, I've become the deputy sect master of a dominant sect. I plan to bring some talents there for cultivation. This opportunity comes only once. Are you interested? Nine Cauldrons Sage was quite pleased with himself. Humph, such an opportunity would tempt anyone. Han Ju, however, looked grim. Deputy sect master overseas, my home was nearly stolen and you were

out there enjoying yourself? At this moment, the system also popped up with a prompt. You have the following choices. One, follow Nine Cauldrons Sage overseas to receive a bottle of cultivation elixir, a magical tool, and a spiritual treasure. Two, continue to stay in the Jade Pure Sect, cultivate Loki, strive for stability, and receive a divine ability inheritance. Han Ju noticed this option seems different from the previous ones. The first one appears to offer more rewards. Han Ju asked, is your sect considered invincible overseas? Nine Cauldrons Sage replied, while not invincible, we are indeed one of

the overlords. Han Ju expressed his concerns. Overlord, so there are opponents then? Of course, but our sect has many fusion void realm experts. Outsiders would not easily shake us. Seeing Han Ju's hesitation, Li Qingzi hurriedly suggested that Han Ju could consider it further before deciding. Elder Han, if you find it difficult, this matter can be set aside for now. The ancestor will be staying in the Jade Pure Sect so there's no rush to decide. Li Qingzi had his calculations. If Elder Han leaves with Nine Cauldrons Sage, what will Jade Pure Sect do if we encounter

danger again? Nine Cauldrons Sage stated, correct, I will stay for at least 50 years before leaving. We plan to transform the Jade Pure Sect into a sacred place of the Great Swallow cultivation world. During this time, you can think it over. To everyone's surprise, Han Ju answered decisively, thank you, ancestor, for your generous offer. I've decided to stay in the Jade Pure Sect. I wish to contribute to the development of the Jade Pure Sect. Just as you ventured out for many years for the sake of the Jade Pure Sect, I have my own way of

protecting the sect and witnessing its growth and prosperity. This is my path of cultivation. Hearing Han Ju's response, Nine Cauldrons Sage didn't want to press further. He instructed Li Qingzi, I've heard that you prefer quiet and hard cultivation. From now on, this entire mountain is yours. You won't need to rely on the spiritual energy from the cave dwelling anymore. This spirit vein will be sufficient for you. Li Qingzi, you arrange for the disciples and the other cave dwellings on this mountain. From now on, this mountain belongs only to Elder Han. Li Qingzi and Han Ju

were both startled. Han Ju immediately thanked the ancestor for his generosity. This was much better than risking going overseas. After leaving Han Ju's cave dwelling, Li Qingzi asked, Ancestor, were you just testing Elder Han's loyalty to the sect? You could say that I've confirmed it now. The heavenly materials and earthly treasures I've collected over the years have all been placed in the treasure vault. You can take some for him. Also, you need to set up a spirit gathering array for the entire mountain to concentrate the spiritual energy. As for the other disciples in the cave

dwellings, you should know how to settle them. The ancestor asked Li Qingzi, Are you worried that after he leaves with me, there will be no one to protect the Jade Pure sect? Li Qingzi admitted, Indeed, I have such concerns. Moreover, Elder Han is cautious and probably would not want to go. Cautious? I see it as fear. It's the first time I've heard fear described in such a refreshing and refined manner. I certainly wasn't like him back in my day. Li Qingzi thought to himself, Here goes the old man bragging about the past again. At this

time, in the cave dwelling, Han Zhu received another system prompt. You choose to continue staying in the Jade Pure sect and receive a divine ability inheritance. Congratulations, you have obtained the divine ability, Buddha's Curse. It's a Buddhist divine ability that can transcend souls and suppress evil cults. Buddhist divine ability? System, are you trying to make me become a monk? On this day, Xing Hongxian came to Han Zhu in high spirits, saying she had found another treasure at the market auction. This is a piece of innate spirit gathering jade, extremely rare. It can automatically gather the

spiritual energy of heaven and earth to produce spirit gathering pills. Therefore, she wanted to give it to Han Zhu. Upon activating his spiritual sense, Han Zhu discovered that the object was dangerously evil. Please, don't just pick up anything. This thing is sealed with a malicious spirit. If you use it for cultivation, it will backfire on your physical body and soul. But I clearly checked it with my spiritual sense. How could this be? This thing has disguised its malevolent energy as spiritual energy. Only a nascent soul's spiritual sense can see through it. I'm so sorry. I

almost harmed my husband. I'll throw it away right now. I can purify it. Give it here. Thus, Han Zhu used the six-path soul absorption technique to extract all the evil spirits from it. Han Zhu returned the purified treasure to Xing Hongxian. Keep it. The malicious spirit inside has been removed by me. You'll need this treasure when you break through to the Golden Core. Xing Hongxian praised Han Zhu. That was close. It's all thanks to my husband's high realm for seeing through this evil object. How should I repay you? How about offering myself to you? However,

Han Zhu, being quite straightforward, said your cultivation is too low. At this rate, you can't become my cultivation partner. Discovering she was rejected by Han Zhu again, Xing Hongxian felt somewhat unhappy. Realizing he might have spoken improperly, Han Zhu took out a storage ring. Inside are all the treasures you've given me in the past. I've kept them safe for you. Now, I'm returning them to you. Additionally, the spiritual energy here is rich. You should move nearby to cultivate. Hearing this, Xing Hongxian was both shocked and pleasantly surprised. Could it be that Han Zhu wants us

to live together? Noticing Xing Hongxuan's flushed face, Han Zhu immediately clarified, I'm suggesting you move here for cultivation, not what you're thinking. Also, you must not reveal our relationship for now. I fear that my enemies might use you to threaten me. Xing Hongxian quickly agreed, thinking to herself, he really does care about me. Hearing Han Zhu's words, the chicken and the dog couldn't help but imagine a melodramatic saga of betrayal. A year and a half later, through the personal efforts of the Real Mind Cauldrons, the spiritual energy of Jade Pure Sex 18 Peaks and the

Inner Sex Pond saw a significant increase. Numerous beasts, comparable to the nascent soul realm, were tamed to protect the sect and the myriad demon realm. As the Jade Pure Sect continued to grow, the Millennium Celebration was about to begin. Cultivation World's various Righteous Path sects sent representatives to offer their congratulations, making the Jade Pure Sect especially lively. However, Han Zhu had no interest in the Millennium Celebration. Cultivation was his life. As the chicken and the dog grew larger, Han Zhu built them a shelter outside his cave dwelling. If you grow any bigger, you won't fit

through the cave entrance. Live outside for now, but remember not to go down the mountain and show off. At this moment, the system sent another notification. Another innate destiny individual detected. This person, named Su Qi, is the reincarnation of the Heaven's Broom Star, born with bad luck and destined to bring misfortune to those around him. His fate is extremely tough, often causing those close to him to suffer misfortune or even death. Yet he always manages to turn danger into safety. Hearing that the Jade Pure Sect is the strongest sect in the Great Swallow, he wishes

to join the Jade Pure Sect to learn their teachings. Special note, because you have the luck of an Immoral Emperor's descendant, you are not affected by the Broom Star's bad luck. Additionally, do not kill the Broom Star, as his overwhelming bad luck cannot be blocked, even by the luck of an Immoral Emperor. Han Zhu was frightened. System, why didn't you tell me earlier? Where is he? I can't let him get close to the Jade Pure Sect. At this time, Su Qi arrived outside the mountain gate, finally reaching the Jade Pure Sect. Su Qi, from now

on, you must work hard in your cultivation. You will surely be the best. The first step in cultivation may be small, but it's a big step in life. Han Zhu arrived just in time, swooshing over. Why have you, a mere mortal, come to the Jade Pure Sect? Seeing Han Zhu's Immoral aura, Su Qi asked, are you an Immortal of the Jade Pure Sect? My name is Su Qi. I want to join the Jade Pure Sect for cultivation. Can I directly enter the inner sect? My talent will not disappoint you. Han Zhu thought to himself, let

you join the Jade Pure Sect and then get dragged down by your bad luck. Han Zhu then tried to dissuade him, saying, you're too old and have missed the best time to start cultivating. How about I teach you a method to gather energy and you look elsewhere for a master? Su Qi, seeing him trying to block his way, doubted. No, I insist on joining the Jade Pure Sect. Wait, are you not from the Jade Pure Sect? I've heard that many other sects have come for the Jade Pure Sect's Millennium Celebration. You must be here to

steal disciples, right? Han Zhu retorted, have some shame. How does a kid like you know so much? What a hassle. So, you really won't leave, trying to deceive me? Not happening. After saying that, Han Zhu grabbed Su Qi by the collar and flew up. Su Qi, thinking Han Zhu was going to harm him, screamed in terror, don't kill me. Are you kidding? I can't withstand that overwhelming bad luck either. Su Qi demanded of Han Zhu, who exactly are you? You don't need to know who I am. Since you don't want to leave, you'll stay with

me for the rest of your life and forget about going anywhere else. At this moment, the system notified, Su Qi's enmity towards you has reached two stars. Han Zhu thought to himself, not good. This kid is emanating a terrifying aura. Could it be he's about to unleash some kind of misfortune technique? Unexpectedly, Su Qi collapsed with a thud, his stomach rumbling loudly. It turned out that on his way to the Jade Pure Sect, he hadn't eaten a single meal. Every restaurant he approached either suddenly closed down or was raided by bandits. Han Zhu thought, you

really are a jinx. Before long, Han Zhu ordered a full table of takeout for Su Qi, who didn't hesitate to start eating voraciously. The system then notified, Su Qi's favorability towards you has increased to three stars. Watching Su Qi wolf down the food, Han Zhu realized Su Qi didn't know that the bad luck was inherent to him, poor kid. How's the taste? This will be your last meal. Su Qi startled. However, Han Zhu told him, you'll start cultivating tomorrow. After learning the method of energy absorption, you won't need to eat anymore. Only then did Su

Qi realize Han Zhu brought him here for cultivation. Instantly, the system notified, Su Qi's favorability towards Han Zhu had increased to five stars. Han Zhu thought, this kid is easy to handle. And so, as the seasons changed, 13 years passed in a blink. Han Zhu had broken through to the fifth level of the spirit transformation realm and Su Qi had grown into a teenager, reaching the second level of the foundation establishment realm. Suddenly hearing joyous voices throughout the set, Han Zhu asked Su Qi, what's today? Su Qi replied, today is the day the disciples who

were taken overseas by the ancestor have returned. 10 years had flown by. At that moment, a familiar voice sounded outside the cave dwelling. It was his senior sister, returning from overseas to visit Han Zhu. She said, compared to the fighting and killing overseas, this place is practically heaven. At the same time, she informed Han Zhu, on the way back, the ancestor led all the disciples and thoroughly eradicated the remnants of the raincoat holy church, even plundering their entire fortune. Han Zhu thought to himself, that's great. Now I can focus on my cultivation and seclusion. Watching

the two chatting eagerly in the distance, the chicken and the dog began to imagine melodramatic scenarios again. Brother chicken, who is that woman? She seems to like our master a lot. Do not be deceived by what you see. That is greed. She wants to eat the master. At this moment, the system notified, your disciple Yang Tiandong was attacked by a demon cultivator and your cultivation partner Xianqing Jun was killed, but has been resurrected. Xianqing Jun was killed, despite her high cultivation level. She was slain. It seems the cultivation world is extremely dangerous, but it's good

she was resurrected. I'll have to ask her about this resurrection technique when we meet next. After their chat, the senior sister also said goodbye to Han Zhu to pay respects to their master. Seeing that the senior sister wasn't affected by Su Qi's bad luck that afternoon, Han Zhu deduced that bad luck might also relate to the duration of contact. At that moment, Han Zhu heard a familiar voice saying, I'm back. Turning towards the voice, he saw it was the ancestor himself visiting, with Su Qi currently massaging his shoulders. The ancestor looked quite pleased. I've just

returned from overseas and brought back many treasures to enhance the spiritual energy of the cave dwelling. I'll instruct the disciples to plant them later. Your disciple has excellent potential. How about I take him overseas next time for some experience? What do you think? Han Zhu was speechless, walking around with a jinx. Ancestor, you're really courting death. Nine Cauldron Sage turned and asked, kid, what do you think? Would you like to accompany this old master overseas for cultivation? His intention was to alleviate the burden of Han Zhu being a teacher. Unaware of how severe Su Qi's

jinx nature was, Han Zhu helplessly informed the ancestor, this kid has secrets that cannot be disclosed. You really can't take him away. Su Qi, quite clever. Seeing the ancestor actually wanted to take a junior disciple and needed Han Zhu's approval. Realized Han Zhu's status within the sect was not simple. One shouldn't easily switch thighs to hug. It's better to cling to this great thigh of my master and concentrate on cultivation. Therefore, Su Qi thanked the ancestor for his kindness, but expressed, I wish to continue my cultivation with my master and protect the Jade Pure sect.

The ancestor laughed, like master, like disciple. Well then, Han Zhu thought to himself, I'm saving your life here. Nine Cauldron Sage stated, I've already scoped out the entirety of the Great Swallow cultivation world. Now, there are no sects daring to target the Jade Pure sect. You can cultivate in peace. On this trip, I discovered an ancient forbidden area with abundant resources. This place was discovered not long ago and might contain many treasures. Would you like to check it out? Han Zhu thought to himself, ancient forbidden land? Just hearing it doesn't sound like a place for

sightseeing. Wait, isn't that the forbidden land Zhou Fan fell into? Since then, there has been no news of Zhou Fan. So, he declined the ancestor's offer. Nevermind, let other disciples have this opportunity instead. The ancestor slowly said, I knew you would say that. There's another matter. In no more than 20 years, I will have to leave for the opening of the heavenly immortal mansion. I plan to enter the mansion in pursuit of the Tao. Would you like to come with me? Let me tell you, this heavenly immortal mansion is extraordinary. It appears every hundred years

and has disciples who ascend to immortality. To Han Zhu's surprise, the ancestor produced the heavenly immortal mansion order, the very same one Xian Qing Jun had wanted to give him. I didn't realize the heavenly immortal mansion was so prestigious. Even an integration realm level eight powerhouse wants to join. However, since Han Zhu's ambition lay elsewhere, he declined the ancestor's generous offer. As he bid farewell to the ancestor, Han Zhu thought, after being served by Su Qi for half a day, I'm afraid you won't be able to avoid the bad luck. 10 years later, the ancestor's

bad luck indeed arrived. He was attacked by inner demons during his cultivation, reducing his cultivation by a hundred years. While Zhou Fan died, but was revived by a powerful being with his body remade. By this time, Han Zhu, who had reached the sixth level of the spirit transformation realm, could now fight the ancestor in the system for half an hour. With Su Qi cultivating in the cave, his bad luck seemed to grow stronger. Unfortunately, the chaotic heavenly dog, being a creature of good fortune, managed to keep the chicken safe. The family within the cave dwelling

lived harmoniously. Hearing that Xing Hongxian had also returned to the set, Han Zhu wanted to see her. Upon knocking on Xing Hongxuan's door, Han Zhu was greeted with a refreshing sight. Seeing Han Zhu, Xing Hongxian took his arm, eager to show him a great treasure. Inside the cave dwelling, Xing Hongxian showed Han Zhu a collection of items obtained from the ancient forbidden land. A few years ago, I visited the ancient forbidden land and got quite a few treasures from there. Pick whatever you like, Han Zhu thought. I appreciate Xing Hongxuan's intentions, but these treasures seem

rather ordinary. Well, it's to be expected. With her cultivation level, it would be difficult to obtain high-grade treasures. Suddenly, Han Zhu's spiritual sense detected a weak divine consciousness emanating from an item resembling a spirit tablet. He began to study it more closely. Indeed, a man engrossed in serious work is most attractive. At this moment, Xing Hongxian found herself desiring Han Zhu's body. Suddenly, Han Zhu's spiritual sense was drawn in. He saw a towering divine soul standing before him. The divine soul told Han Zhu secret technique, Heavenly Puppet. A Heavenly Puppet is created from spiritual power.

Its strength depends on the creator's cultivation level. The Heavenly Puppet does not fight automatically. It requires the creator to control it with a strand of soul consciousness. If the Heavenly Puppet is destroyed, it will not affect the creator. However, the downside is that the Heavenly Puppet is not durable. Once its spiritual power is exhausted, it will become inactive until the next time spiritual power is infused, restoring its mobility. This is just a creation from pure spiritual power. If heavenly materials and earthly treasures are added in the making, its endurance will increase and its strength will

far exceed that of the creator. Since it does not need to breathe, you can make a fixed number of Heavenly Puppets and store them in a storage ring for backup. Han Zhu thought, isn't this like having a bunch of clone fighters? Then, the divine soul told Han Zhu again, using the world's top materials and supreme spiritual power to refine the ultimate Heavenly Puppet. Its power can contend with an immoral emperor. As the voice faded, the appearance of the giant divine soul became clearer. Han Zhu was shocked. The demon god looked remarkably similar to a Gundam.

In an instant, Han Zhu's spiritual sense was transmitted back to reality. Opening his eyes, he saw Xing Hongxian straddling him. Having removed much of his clothing, Han Zhu sprang up from the bed as if he had been the one taken advantage of. Thinking to himself, lucky my reactions were quick, or else my centuries of celibacy would have been ruined. After straightening his clothes, Han Zhu said to Xing Hongxian, I'll take this tablet to study it further. I'll come over another day. Hearing that Han Zhu would return, Xing Hongxian understood that her earlier actions hadn't displeased

him. It seems there's hope for us to become cultivation partners after all. Back in his cave dwelling, Han Zhu continued to delve into the method of creating puppets. It was truly a technique from the ancient forbidden land. The Heavenly Puppet technique was indeed extraordinary. Under normal circumstances, it's difficult for spiritual power to materialize, let alone create a puppet. Yet, the Heavenly Puppet technique could achieve this. The secret technique for splitting one's soul consciousness was also quite rare, essentially like having an extra pair of eyes, allowing for shared vision with the puppet. Thinking this over, he

considered, I could make one for each of them in case they encounter danger outside. The Heavenly Puppet could save their lives. Even if the puppet couldn't overcome the threat, sharing its location could allow for timely rescue. Thinking of this, Han Zhu immediately shouted excitedly, I want to make 10. However, Han Zhu underestimated the difficulty of crafting Heavenly Puppets. Although not hard to make, it was too cumbersome, requiring a lot of time like meticulous model crafting. Two years later, Han Zhu finally crafted the first puppet. He teleported to Xing Hongxuan's cave dwelling. She was still cultivating

and was startled by Han Zhu's sudden appearance. But upon seeing it was Han Zhu, her face lit up with joy again. Han Zhu directly took out the Heavenly Puppet. Miss Xing, this puppet is for you. It can be stored in a storage ring. You must take it wherever you go. In critical moments, it can save your life. Xing Hongxuan was delighted and looked over the Heavenly Puppet with satisfaction. Wow, it looks like my husband. In the following year, Han Zhu created two more Heavenly Puppets. Han Zhu gave the two Heavenly Puppets to Chan Yu'er and

Xishuan Fairy, respectively. Since the Heavenly Puppet was almost like cheating, Han Zhu once thought about creating an army. But Han Zhu found that controlling the puppets with his soul required splitting his soul, which greatly affected his cultivation. Drained, Han Zhu lay there listlessly. Forget it, cutting too much will cause problems. I'm not making a soul artifact. Besides, I haven't cultivated for two years because of this. I can't delay my cultivation any longer. In the blink of an eye, three years passed. Han Zhu suddenly received a system notification. You are now 200 years old. You chose

to cultivate in low profile and obtained a spiritual treasure, the 4th Grade Frost Lord's Glazed Crown. It can reflect all attacks below the Integration Realm, excluding special divine abilities, and effectively defend against soul and spiritual sense impacts. Another defensive spiritual treasure. The system knows my heart well. From now on, Han Zhu from head to toe is all spiritual treasures, armed to the extreme. The Spirit Transformation Realm can't possibly harm me. Another five years passed. The Nine-Cauldron Sage took a group of disciples and left for overseas. Before leaving, Chang Yue came to say goodbye. Wu, my

junior brother, without you, how can I live? It took Han Zhu a good half day to send off this weeping senior sister. After the departure of the Nine-Cauldron Sage, Han Zhu, bored, used the simulation trial to check the highest cultivation level within the Jade Pure Sect besides himself. The system notified that the current strongest person in the sect is Li Qianlong. At the 5th level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, the heir to the Poison King, Han Zhu had a peculiar expression, thinking that the name Li Qianlong sounded very familiar, as if he had heard it

somewhere before. Over a hundred years ago, Ma Zhu invited him to search for opportunities, and it seemed that they were looking for the cave dwelling of Li Qianlong, who was supposed to be dead by then. However, having the cultivation of the 5th level of the Spirit Transformation Realm in the Great Swallow cultivation world is considered extremely high. If he were truly still alive, it would definitely cause a significant commotion. But Han Zhu had never heard his own people mention him, indicating that Li Qianlong had infiltrated the Jade Pure Sect. Han Zhu immediately searched for Li

Qianlong's location. Li Qianlong was actually at the main peak. At this moment, Master Jingxiu had gathered all disciples of the main peak to announce the departure of the Nine-Cauldron Sage. Li Qianlong had an ordinary appearance, and his aura was suppressed at the first level of the Golden Core Realm. Looking very honest, who would have thought he was the heir to the Poison King? Li Qianlong was overjoyed upon learning that the Nine-Cauldron Sage had left for overseas, feeling that he finally had his chance. With the Nine-Cauldron Sage present, he dared not act rashly. Now that the

Nine-Cauldron Sage had left, he finally felt like the clouds were parting to reveal the sun. Stay calm. There's still someone who can hinder me, the most mysterious person in the Jade Pure Sect, the Godslaying Elder. Meanwhile, in the ancient Forbidden Land, Zhou Fan knelt on the ground, refusing to rise. I, Zhou Fan, must I accept my fate as such? No, my fate is mine to control, not destined by the heavens. And so, five years passed. Han Zhu broke through to the seventh layer of the Spirit Transformation Realm, drawing ever closer to the Fusion Void Realm.

Han Zhu checked the Interpersonal Relationships section of his mail. Your cultivation partner, Xian Qingjun, has had a life epiphany and comprehended a divine ability. Your friend, Mafuchu, has fallen into the demon path. Your friend, the Nine-Cauldron Sage, was attacked by a demon king and was seriously injured. Your friend, the Nine-Cauldron Sage, was so angered that his Tao heart was damaged. Your friend, Zhou Fan, has achieved a powerful body, shocking the world. Han Zhu was stunned. So much has happened in these five years. Mafuchu has actually fallen into the demon path. What did he encounter? The

Nine-Cauldron Sage is truly miserable, but he deserves it for always courting disaster. And Zhou Fan, well done. Han Zhu took a deep breath, feeling that he could not slack off. My cultivation level in the Great Swallow Cultivation World might already be at the ceiling, but that doesn't mean it will stay that way in the future. I still need to diligently cultivate. Thus, Han Zhu decided to go all out towards the Fusion Void Realm. In the blink of an eye, another 10 years passed. Han Zhu's cultivation level reached the eighth layer of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

One day, Li Qingzi came to visit. To prevent Su Qi from passing bad luck to Li Qingzi, Han Jue stepped out of his cave dwelling. Set leader, please stop. Let's catch up somewhere else. Li Qingzi greeted him warmly. Elder Han, long time no see. How is your cultivation going? Now. He was radiant with success. With the help of the nine-cauldron sage, his cultivation level had reached the nascent soul realm. Besides his cultivation, he was also the leader of the righteous path in the Great Swallow cultivation world. Over the years, Han Jue had not seen him

attacked by anyone. Han Jue asked with a smile, Set leader Li, what brings you here? Set leader Li said, the cultivation conference organized by the righteous path is about to start. This time, the conference will be held in the capital of the Great Swallow dynasty. Participating can gain human races luck, which is beneficial for cultivation. Elder Han, will you go? Cultivation conference? It sounds like trouble waiting to happen. I won't. After all, with the departure of our ancestor, other forces must be aware by now. You understand what I mean. I knew you would say that.

You're missing out on a great opportunity. Wait till I bring back that luck. You'll be envious. Han Jue asked, by the way, set leader, what's your view on Li Qianlong? Set leader sighed, how did you come to know about this scourge? Li Qianlong was once my junior brother, a rare genius in the jade pure sect for a hundred years. However, he and Gu Yugeng both fancied Xishuan fairy. The two once fought a life and death battle, forcing our master to intervene. But Li Qianlong, unconvinced, dared to attack our master stealthily. Fortunately, I intervened in time

to prevent a major mistake. He was punished. His meridians were severed, and he was locked in the reflection cliff for introspection. But he escaped. Before leaving, he left a letter saying he would return one day to overturn the jade pure sect. Han Jue remarked, master is indeed a woman with heavy karma. No wonder the master forbids disciples of jade seclusion peak from falling in love. Li Qingzi asked, but why do you suddenly bring him up? Han Jue said, some time ago, I encountered someone in the inner city claiming to be Li Qianlong's disciple, recruiting people.

I was also invited, but recently when I wanted to find him, he disappeared. Li Qingzi exclaimed, what? He's already here? What's he planning with the recruitment? Han Jue recalled, he said he caught a fish and found a note in its stomach. Something about Great Shu Rising, Old Chen or something like that. I didn't pay much attention afterward, but it seemed like he was hinting at something. Li Qingzi guessed, Great Shu Rising, he wants to overturn the jade pure sect. Li Qingzi advised, Elder Han, you must catch him, and be careful with your strength. Don't kill

him. I need to inform the other brothers and sisters to be more vigilant. After Li Qingzi left, the system once again popped up a notification, congratulations on obtaining the exceptional spiritual treasure, the Book of Misfortune. The exceptional Book of Misfortune is an exceptional spiritual treasure, it can curse beings to bring misfortune to them without their notice. Upon seeing this, Han Jue was shocked, has summoning a treasure ever been such a big deal? Han Jue returned to his cave dwelling, took out the Book of Misfortune, and said, true to its name, one look and you know

this isn't a lucky charm. All these seals on it, is it stacking murder on top of a curse? Creepy. Did Han Jue spread misfortune and curse others like Su Qi did? Su Qi looked at the Book of Misfortune in Han Jue's hands. This feels strangely familiar. What did you say? Nothing, nothing. My apologies. I didn't mean to disturb the senior. Do misfortunes sense each other? Interesting. If it's from the system, it must be a fine product. Wouldn't the Book of Misfortune curse enemies to death? Should I experiment with it? Let's start by binding it with

my blood. As the blood dropped and the seal was lifted, a strong aura of misfortune spread out. Han Jue thought, whom to try it on? But no, he's more powerful than I am. It might not have any effect. Despite the system claiming, the curse will not be noticed by others, it seems unreliable. Han Jue thought, let's target him then. At the same level he can't beat me, especially since he's attempting to overthrow the jade pure sect. He remembered Li Qianlong. Li Qianlong. He he he. If not for you, our jade seclusion peak might have been

a place for love and affection. On the other side, Li Qianlong was kneeling at the entrance of a bamboo house, saying solemnly, master, please come out of retirement. A voice from inside the bamboo house responded, I have already left the moral world and no longer involve myself in the disputes of the cultivation world. You must seek your own revenge. I have already passed on all my teachings to you. Do not be greedy. Li Qianlong, not willing to give up, pleaded, then please pass the poison god pill to me. The voice replied, no, what if you

use it to poison me? Wouldn't I be wrong? Li Qianlong thought to himself, this damn thing, he's holding back. The nine cauldron sage had already sensed the existence of me, so I cannot rashly offend him. If you are determined to seek revenge, you can go to the Great Swallow Wei family. The Wei family has wide connections in the Great Swallow cultivation world. Do you understand what I mean? Li Qianlong said, understood, thank you, master. In his heart, Li Qianlong resented, this old man, I've been your guinea pig for so many years, promised to be the

sole heir of the Poison King, yet, he still doesn't fully impart his skills to me. Just you wait. When the time comes, a bolt of lightning struck Li Qianlong, and he cursed. How sinister. Meanwhile, Han Zhu was studying the Book of Misfortune. I've been cursing for so long, and there seems to be no reaction. It couldn't be a fake, could it? A month later, Yang Tiandong returned and said to Han Zhu, master, I have lived up to your expectations. I've become a core disciple. The heartless sword technique you taught me is truly powerful. Many couldn't

withstand even one move. Master, I plan to attend the cultivation conference to represent the Jade Pure sect in the martial arts competition. Could you teach me another move? Su Qi crowded around. Could you be the senior brother Yang Tiandong that the predecessor mentioned? Pleased to meet you. Han Zhu quickly kicked Yang Tiandong away. Yang Tiandong was on the verge of tears. Is master opposing me going to the cultivation conference? Han Zhu thought to himself, I'm afraid you'll be infected by misfortune. Five years later, Han Zhu broke through to the full completion of the spirit transformation

realm and thought, it's about time for a breakthrough. Once I enter the integration realm, the efficiency of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will at least triple. However, this means that others in the cave will not be able to absorb spiritual energy, which is unfair to Su Qi. But the problem is, apart from staying in the cave, there's nowhere else to accommodate him. Keeping him in the cave all the time is not a long-term solution. What should he do in the future? Han Zhu called Su Qi over and said, Su Qi, come here,

I have something to tell you. Su Qi asked, Senior, what is it? Han Zhu said, you've been in the Jade Pure sect for quite a few years and have started on the path of cultivation. I have a task for you. If you can complete it, I will take you as my direct disciple. Su Qi joyfully said, Senior, what is the task? Su Qi will not let you down. I want you to go to the northern province and join the monster-taming demon sect. Just focus on covertly cultivating. Once the internal support is ready, I will destroy

their sect and get you out. Su Qi exclaimed in shock to destroy a sect. What realm is Senior in? So powerful. The disciple will definitely complete the task. Han Zhu instructed, this is a secret mission. Do not speak of it to anyone in the Jade Pure sect. Off you go. After leaving the innate cave, the sunlight shone on Su Qi. He couldn't help feeling as if he was in a different world. After so many years, I didn't expect the Senior to actually let me out. It feels so unreal. I thought I had to surpass the

Senior in cultivation to leave, and was prepared to never leave in my lifetime. I must complete the master's test. Suddenly, Su Qi remembered, wait, where is the northern province? Two years later, Han Zhu's cultivation finally reached the full completion of the spirit transformation realm. He excitedly opened the system's interpersonal relations panel to see what had happened in these two years. Your disciple Yan Tian Dong was attacked by a demon king and severely injured. Your disciple Yan Tian Dong obtained an opportunity and awakened the demon saint bloodline. Your divine pet chaotic heavenly dog made a mistake

in its cultivation, resulting in a regression of 20 years in its cultivation journey. Your friend Ma Fu Chu was attacked by righteous path cultivators 104 times. Your friend Chan Yue accidentally obtained an opportunity and her cultivation greatly increased. Your disciple Su Qi was attacked by demon cultivators 27 times. Your disciple Su Qi was captured by the Azure Ghost sect. Your disciple Su Qi spread bad luck, leading the Azure Ghost sect to encounter a once-in-hundreds-of-years heavenly tribulation, resulting in the sect's destruction. Han Zhu was stunned by what he read, exclaiming in his mind, awesome, truly the

scourge of the heavenly court, absolutely a nuclear bomb. A few days later, outside the demonic beast pavilion, Master Jing Xu told dozens of disciples, from today onwards, all disciples are forbidden from entering the Myriad Demon Realm until further notice. A main peak disciple couldn't help asking, Master, what happened in the Myriad Demon Realm? The disciples were all curious. Han Zhu turned his head to express his gratitude to true person Jing Xu. Thank you, Master Jing Xu. I don't know how long I'll need to stay in the Myriad Demon Realm. Han Zhu activated teleportation and headed

straight for the Myriad Demon Realm. Tribulation crossing? His spirit transformation was only a hundred years ago, and he's achieved the Fusion Void Realm at just over 200 years old. Even the Nine-Cauldron Sage, who was once hailed as the number one genius of the Great Swallow cultivation world, took over a thousand years to reach the Fusion Void Realm. A disciple asked, Master, what's happening in the Myriad Demon Realm? The God-slaying Elder is crossing the tribulation in the Myriad Demon Realm. This matter must not be disclosed. Just say the Myriad Demon Realm is facing a natural disaster.

Hearing that the God-slaying Elder was inside, the disciples discussed it nonstop, very excited. On the other side, within the Myriad Demon Realm, a mighty heavenly tribulation shook the entire Myriad Demon Realm. As the Last Thunder tribulation struck down, Han Zhu finally endured the heavenly tribulation and advanced to the Fusion Void Realm as a great cultivator. Congratulations on breaking through to the Fusion Void Realm, obtaining a Congenital Spiritual Treasure. The Congenital Spiritual Treasure will fuse with your soul and recognize you for life. As you become stronger, the Congenital Spiritual Treasure will also grow stronger. You have

the following choices for the Congenital Spiritual Treasure. 1. Sword 2. Defensive Treasure Han Zhu, already possessing defensive-type spiritual treasures, naturally chose the sword, since he is a sword cultivator. The system again prompted, congratulations on obtaining the Primordial Judgment Sword. Primordial Judgment Sword, because you were not reincarnated in the conventional manner, but traveled through the Primordial Chaos to come into this world. The primordial energy on your body has been refined into your Congenital Spiritual Treasure. Han Zhu was stunned. Primordial Chaos? Is it the Primordial Chaos from the prehistoric novels? The system didn't answer him. Han Zhu

opened the Attribute Panel and found that his lifespan had skyrocketed to 8,940 years. Han Zhu also noticed the addition of Mortal Shedding Stage to his human identity. Is this a hint towards becoming an immortal? Han Zhu was experiencing the Fusion Void Realm, feeling a world of difference compared to the Spirit Transformation Realm. His divine sense could extend to a hundred miles. Why is Elder Guan here? At this moment, Gu Yugong was tracking Han Zhu's aura. The aftermath of the Thunder Tribulation hasn't dissipated. I wonder where the God Slaying Elder is consolidating his cultivation. Han Zhu

suddenly appeared behind Gu Yugong on a tree. Who are you looking for? Gu Yugong turned his head. His face slightly reddened upon seeing Han Zhu's peerless visage. Is this the God Slaying Elder? So handsome. Han Zhu's face darkened. You're looking for me? Exactly. God Slaying Elder, I am Gu Yugong. We had an agreement. I challenge you. If I win, I will be the Jade Pure Sect sect leader. Have you forgotten? God Slaying Elder? Han Zhu suddenly remembered his master's instructions. I came to find you hoping you could help me suppress Elder Guan. Han Zhu was

furious. Of all times, you choose now to come. Gu Yugong stepped forward briskly. So, you've agreed? Good. God Slaying Elder, my divine ability is very powerful. Bear with it. Meanwhile, he thought to himself, I'll use my newly comprehended divine ability to finish him in a second. Then, Sister Shi Xian might see me in a new light. He unleashed a peerless divine ability, which inherently causes true damage, has a devastating effect and can shatter both soul and body upon impact. Han Zhu thought to himself, it's been a while since I've used that move, Supreme Finger Divine

Sword. In an instant, a sword energy a hundred times larger than Gu Yugong's divine ability exploded forth. Gu Yugong was petrified with shock. What? It's so huge. Then, he was sent flying. I couldn't even take one of his swords. If he hadn't changed the direction of the sword energy, I would have been reduced to dust. This is too monstrous. No wonder the junior sister is fixated on him. My heart aches. It hurts so much. And to think I had hoped to defeat him with one move. Han Zhu smiled slightly. Elder Guan, you're actually very strong.

It's just that you picked the wrong opponent. In the Jade Pure Sect now, you're the only one worth my effort. Don't be disheartened. With you, the Jade Pure Sect has a future. Upon hearing this, Gu Yugong's face flushed with emotion. Just how strong are you? At that moment, the system chimed in. Gu Yugong's favorability towards you. Han Zhu immediately interrupted. Shut up. Three years later, Han Zhu returned to his own peak and suddenly had an idea. He raised his right hand, and the earth rose, quickly solidifying into a stone tablet. Using his finger as a

pen, Han Zhu inscribed four characters on the tablet. Cultivation leads to immortality. This will be the name of this mountain from now on. The chicken and the dog also noticed that their master's aura was stronger than before. Master's aura is so strong. Has he made another breakthrough? Of course. Who do you think our master is? Hearing this, Han Zhu was overjoyed. Truly the spirit pets I've raised. So in tune with my heart. You're right about the breakthrough. Just now, in the simulation trial, I finally defeated the Nine Cauldron Sage. Thanks to the Primordial Judgment Sword

unleashing its divine might. Even though it took a long time, I can defeat the Nine Cauldron Sage at the 8th level of the Integration Realm. So Xiao at the 2nd level of the Integration Realm is even less of a concern. At this moment, the system again popped up with a relationship list. Your disciple Su Qi was attacked by ghost cultivators 12 times. Your disciple Su Qi has cumulatively killed tens of thousands of beings, increasing his karma. Your friendly Qingzi was attacked by demon cultivators 58 times. Your friendly Qingzi was attacked by righteous path cultivators 44

times. Your friendly Qingzi is severely injured and on the brink of death. Your cultivation partner Xian Qingjun has left the mortal world. Your friend Ma Fuqiu has slaughtered many, accumulating immense karma. Your friend Xing Hongxian has accidentally entered an ancient great cultivator's secret realm. Her life and death unknown. Han Zhu mused, the cultivation world has been quite lively lately, with the Nine Cauldron Sage backing the Jade Pure Sect. We don't have to be as stifled as before. What about the other sects? Could there be other ancestors in existence? No. The Integration Realm is still not

enough. I must continue to cultivate and step into the Union Realm as soon as possible. Two years later, Li Qingzi came to visit, once again looking as miserable as he often did decades ago. Han Zhu sighed, sect leader, can't you just cultivate peacefully for a few hundred years? Li Qingzi said awkwardly, Elder Han, we're in big trouble. The righteous and demonic paths of the Great Swallow are joining forces to attack our Jade Pure Sect. Those bastards claim that one of our core disciples has fallen into the demon path. I went to apologize personally, but they

attacked me. The disciple they're talking about is Ma Fuchu, whom you know. I suspect someone is framing the Jade Pure Sect, trying to take advantage of the situation. What exactly happened with Ma Fuchu? Ma Fuchu's family was originally a cultivation family, and his name wasn't Ma Fuchu back then. But not long after, someone in his family colluded with the demon path, and the entire family was annihilated by the righteous path, leaving only Ma Fuchu and Ma Zhu alive. The siblings relied on each other and wandered the Mortal Realm for years, until they came to the

Jade Pure Sect, where Taoist Lei took them in as disciples and gave them his name. From now on, your name is Ma Fuchu, hoping you can forget your hatred and start anew. However, he couldn't let go. Once, during an outing, he encountered his old enemies, killed many disciples of that sect, and then went on to attack disciples of other righteous path sects involved in the incident, resulting in more than five sects hunting him. Driven to desperation, Ma Fuchu had to use his family's divine ability, which contained demonic thoughts, leading him directly into the demon path.

Relying on this divine ability, he killed more and more, completely becoming a demon, unable to turn back. Han Zhu frowned, but Ma Fuchu isn't that kind of person. He's humble and wouldn't take extreme actions. Li Qingzi said, I thought so too. The whole thing is too suspicious. These sects didn't even inquire with us and directly pursued Ma Fuchu. What if he was being manipulated? I intended to mediate, but they attacked me instead. Clearly, they were looking for an excuse to start a war. Have you ever seen a juniors issue escalate to involve sect leaders? Now

with the righteous and demonic paths besieging us, plus the ancestors' departure, we could have resisted with you and Gu Yugong. But Gu Yugong is seriously injured for some reason and hasn't recovered. It looks like we have no choice but to flee. Han Zhu advised Li Qingzi not to panic and asked, Do the righteous and demonic paths have any cultivators at the Integration Realm or Union Realm? Li Qingzi answered, Impossible. Previously, Huang Zuntian had the strength of the ninth layer of the Spirit Transformation Realm and was already domineering in the Great Swallow. If they had cultivators

at that level, they would have wiped out the raincoat holy church long ago. Han Zhu then asked, Is there anyone like the ancestor of the Jade Pure sect who went out to cultivate and seek opportunities? Li Qingzi replied, I'm not very clear about that. When our ancestor went door to door back then, each of them was as meek as a grandchild. At least, I haven't heard of any Integration Realm existences in the Great Swallow. Han Zhu smiled upon hearing this, feeling reassured. Li Qingzi said, Elder Han, please prepare yourself. In at most three days, I

will lead the Jade Pure sect to seek refuge overseas with our ancestor. Han Zhu responded with a smile, Why run? I haven't thought about running. Why are you? With full confidence, Han Zhu declared, Let them come. They will realize that the most fearsome aspect of the Jade Pure sect might not necessarily be the ancestor. Understanding Han Zhu's implication, Li Qingzi excitedly asked, What realm are you in now? Han Zhu casually answered, At least not inferior to the ancestor. A year later, outside the Jade Pure sect, two disciples were discussing the nineteenth root sect's approach and

contemplating whether to flee. One disciple pointed at an approaching figure and said, That's Huang Jihao from the Vermilion Bird Sword sect. The other disciple exclaimed, The Vermilion Bird Sword sect is attacking? Run! Without further thought, the two turned and ran, leaving Huang Jihao baffled. Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, Why are you here again? Wasn't the last beating enough? Recognizing the voice of the godslaying elder, Huang Jihao quickly said, Fellow Taoist, please don't be hasty. I'm just here to visit, and I have no ill intentions towards the Jade Pure sect. Huang Jihao explained, Recently,

some people want to unite the righteous and demonic paths to deal with the Jade Pure sect. The Vermilion Bird Sword sect sent me to ask if the Jade Pure sect needs any help. Han Zhu coldly responded, No need. No matter how many of you come, you will all die. Huang Jihao was shocked by Han Zhu's reply. Such arrogance, truly befitting the godslaying elder. Han Zhu changed the subject, Suggesting the situation was suspicious and possibly instigated by someone. If you can find out who's behind this, I wouldn't mind forming an alliance with your sect leader. Hearing

Han Zhu's willingness to form an alliance, Huang Jihao was both shocked and pleased. The godslaying elder is willing to face the Nineteenth Root Sect alone. Coming here to inform the Jade Pure sect, Even at the risk of offending the Nineteenth Root Sect alliance, Was indeed worth it. The system notified, Huang Jihao's favorability towards you has increased to four stars. Han Zhu thought to himself, Does this guy have inappropriate thoughts about me? In a landscape of mountains and rivers, A pavilion stands in the middle of a lake. Wei family's Li Qianlong knelt at the entrance, Inviting

a powerful individual to come forward. Whatever conditions you have, We will satisfy them. A person walked out slowly, smiling. Oh, anything is possible? Agreed. Meanwhile, in an ancient secret realm, Xing Hongxian was admiring the ancient secret techniques on the wall, Thinking, If I copy these back from my husband, He will be very happy. She looked affectionately at a puppet of Han Zhu, Sighing to herself, I wonder if my husband can hear my thoughts. As she was playing with the puppet, Suddenly she heard footsteps behind her. Xing Hongxian turned around alertly, Who's there? A withered old

cultivator slowly approached, Seeing Xing Hongxuan's nervousness. He quickly reassured, Young friend, No need to be cautious. I'm just here to comprehend the techniques. The grey-robed elder ignored Xing Hongxian, And sat down in front of the wall, Staring at the characters and pondering deeply. Xing Hongxian revealed confusion, He doesn't seem like it's his first time here. Could it be that he discovered this wall before I did? The atmosphere in the cave tensed, Both parties not noticing the puppet's eyes flickering with light. Inside is an eight-cave dwelling. Han Zhu hesitated, Should I have the heavenly puppet intervene?

But the grey-robed elder seems harmless. It seems Xing Hongxuan's safety isn't a concern for now, But it's better to be cautious. With that thought, Han Zhu continued his cultivation. Suddenly, Han Zhu unexpectedly received a message. Hm? Is this a sound transmission jade slip? He looked at the jade slip, Puzzled. Shoot, I've never used this before. How does it work? Then, A voice from the jade slip spoke. It was Huang Jihao, God-slaying elder. I've found out why the 19th root sect is attacking the jade pure sect. It's related to the Wei family. I'm being pursued. I'll

update you later. Han Zhu immediately sought out Li Qingzi to inquire. Sect leader, Do you know about the Wei family? Hearing it was the Wei family, Li Qingzi was somewhat puzzled. The Great Swallow Wei family isn't too famous. They only have one nascent soul cultivator. But the Wei family is known for producing beautiful women, Forming marriages everywhere, And even doing business outside of the Great Swallow. Their connections might be the widest. Elder Han, Are you also interested in a woman? Han Zhu seriously suggested, Is it possible that the Wei family is the mastermind behind this

incident? Li Qingzi was astonished. Ah, that's unlikely. The Wei family doesn't have that kind of capability. And besides, They have been on good terms with the jade pure sect for generations. Han Zhu chuckled. It's just a speculation. Having wide connections indeed makes many things possible. Another question, Who is the current head of the Wei family? Li Qingzi answered, I heard there has been a change in leadership, But the details are not clear. Han Zhu nodded. That's alright, sect leader. Take good care of yourself. If enemies approach, I am here. Li Qingzi gratefully said, Thank you,

elder Han. Han Zhu lamented, Old grudges not yet settled. New enmities arise. When will it all end? Han Zhu took out the book of misfortune, Thinking, If only I knew who the mastermind was, It would be easy to deal with. Now I can't even curse them. Well, I'll just vent on these two for now. I cursed Xiao last week. So it's his turn now. Li Qianlong, I really look forward to the system delivering your good news. At this moment, Xiao was meditating in a secret chamber, Preparing for a breakthrough. Unaware that the curse had quietly

returned. He was looking forward to it. I'm about to break through. He he he. If I succeed, My chances of success will be even greater. Suddenly, He felt his energy going in reverse. His inner demons overwhelming him. And without warning, He spat out a mouthful of blood. He instantly became dispirited. He gritted his teeth and cursed. Why is there another problem? At this rate, When will I be able to overthrow the jade pure sac? He had no choice but to give up on the breakthrough. Enough. It's about time anyway. Let's proceed with the plan. In

a luxurious palace, Dozens of cultivators were seated, Mingling. Li Qianlong slowly walked in. Seeing Li Qianlong joining, The crowd exchanged a few words of greeting. Brother Li, How goes your cultivation? Why don't you join us for some fun? These individuals were sect leaders or deputy leaders from both the righteous and demonic paths, Gathered to discuss the attack on the jade pure sect. Li Qianlong stated, Since all the sect leaders are gathered, I'll get straight to the point. This time, The Wei family and I have paid a great price to invite an integration realm cultivator to

help us eradicate the jade pure sect. Integration realm? Everyone exclaimed, I've already investigated. The jade pure sect's ancestor, The nine cauldron sage, Has traveled far overseas. Now, Their strongest is only this so-called godslaying elder. If you join me, The jade pure sect is doomed. Li Qianlong's words made the cultivators look at each other, Wondering if they would become the next jade pure sect after it falls. Seeing their hesitation, Li Qianlong reassured, Don't worry. That predecessor has his own sect and will leave after the job is done. The Wei family only wants the jade pure sect's

secret realms and will not partake in further conflicts. With these words, The mood among the sect leaders eased, And they agreed one after another. Li Qianlong thought to himself, Idiots, Once the jade pure sect is destroyed, I'll invite the predecessor again to wipe you all out. Just then, The spiritual power inside Li Qianlong suddenly surged, And he spat out another mouthful of blood. Ugh, Who is messing with me? On the other side, Han Zhu thought the curse had failed again. Still no feedback. Did I just curse in vain? In the blink of an eye, Another

three years passed. Han Zhu's cultivation had reached the second layer of the fusion void realm. Han Zhu checked his relationships and emails to see what interesting events had occurred in the past three years. Your disciple Yang Tiandong has become a demon king. Your friend Zhou Fan has fallen into the demon path. Han Zhu couldn't help but sigh upon reading this. How did Zhou Fan also fall into the demon path? What's going on with Thunder Peak? It can't be that betrayal is Thunder Peak's traditional skill. The Peak Master is not doing well, And the disciples are

suffering too. Indeed, Jade Seclusion Peak is the best. While Han Zhu was pondering, He suddenly sensed the aura of the chaotic Heavenly Dog. The plump dog was squatting nearby, Looking like it had something to say, But hesitating. The dog said nervously, Master, I really can't hold it in any longer. May I go out for a trial? Han Zhu replied, You are a divine beast. If people discover your identity, It will easily attract their covetousness. It would be difficult for me to save you if you're not in the Jade Pure Sect. The chaotic Heavenly Dog, By

nature, Found it hard to suppress its longing for the outside world. Master, I always feel like there's some opportunity waiting for me out there. Han Zhu asked, Have you really thought it through? Once you go out, Whether you encounter attacks from the righteous path, Or the demon path, I won't intervene to save you. The chaotic Heavenly Dog carefully answered, Master, I think the ones who should be worried are them. Han Zhu looked up and exclaimed in surprise, Damn, This thing has grown bigger than a bear. Han Zhu thought to himself, I've been too absorbed in

cultivation these years, And neglected the changes around me. Hearing Han Zhu's agreement, The chaotic Heavenly Dog immediately grabbed Han Zhu, And licked him. In its paws, Han Zhu looked just like a small bone. Since that's the case, Then go. It might actually be good for you to go out and experience the world. The chaotic Heavenly Dog barked joyfully and dashed out of the cave, Fearing Han Zhu might change his mind. Han Zhu wanted to give it some last words of advice, But the dog had already run down the mountain. Han Zhu thought to himself, Oh,

Doggy, You don't know how good you have it. Just wait until society gives you a hard time. Not long after, The dark prison chicken came. Han Zhu said somewhat irritably, What? You want to go out too? The dark prison chicken shivered with fear and quickly said, How could I? Going out means getting turned into KFC. I came to ask master if you could teach me how to cultivate, Or at least some survival skills. Han Zhu thought to himself, The dark prison chicken has its own life cultivation technique, But lacks spells and divine abilities. It's time

to teach it something. Since that's the case, I'll teach you as heaven and earth. It's a good opportunity to prove that hard cultivation is no worse than encountering fortunes outside. The little chicken had its own plans. You fat dog, Bet you didn't see this coming. The moment you left, I'm learning divine abilities from master. Next time, I'll give you a good thrashing. In a bustling city, Su Qi was walking on a street lined with stalls on both sides. The people coming and going were cultivators. He looked more mature, His face devoid of smiles, Giving off

a sense of having experienced the vicissitudes of life. As he walked, Su Qi pondered the events of the past few years. Is it bad luck or fortune? A young lady once coveted my beauty, But then her family was struck by a plague, And only I was spared. I've been chased by demon cultivators, From the second ring all the way to the sixth, And not even on a direct route. In a desperate moment, I stumbled into the lair of a legendary beast, Godzilla, And the demon cultivator was done for. Fortune seems to always accompany me, Wherever

I go there's a life and death trial waiting for me, Yet I always manage to escape danger. But others aren't as lucky as me. Plague, Earthquakes, Floods, Famine, I've witnessed too much suffering among the people, Feeling increasingly powerless, Eventually adding only to my size. Facing this world, We are truly fragile. Perhaps the outcome of the mission isn't important, What matters is the process. Only by enduring the hardships of the human world, Can one understand the Tao. Tzu Chi had an epiphany. Master, I finally understand what you meant. As he spoke, Tzu Chi, Not paying attention,

Bumped into a female cultivator. You wretch, Harboring lewd thoughts about me. The female cultivator scolded angrily. Tzu Chi hastily apologized. I'm, I'm so sorry. I was distracted and didn't see you. The female cultivator became even angrier. What's the use of apologizing? I've been violated like this. Who would want me now? I really didn't mean it that way. Tzu Chi defended. Go to hell. The female cultivator drew her longsword and stabbed at Tzu Chi. At this critical moment, An invisible force suddenly repelled the female cultivator, Causing her to fall heavily to the ground. Indeed, It must

be Master helping me from the shadows. Otherwise, How could I explain such fortunate coincidences along my journey? After the chaotic heavenly dog left, Within less than a year, The 19th Root Sect, Led by Li Qianlong and Wei Yuan, Finally prepared to attack the Jade Pure Sect. Wei Yuan walked in the air, His sleeves fluttering with the wind, Exuding an immortal aura. He scanned the Jade Pure Sect with his spiritual sense and frowned slightly. There's only one spirit transformation realm cultivator in the Jade Pure Sect, And his aura is unstable, Seeming still in recovery. He looked

dissatisfiedly at Li Qianlong, His gaze as if saying, You brought me here just to deal with such a sect. Hearing this, Li Qianlong was pleasantly surprised. The god-slaying elder is injured? That's great! With a call from Li Qianlong, Gentlemen, Fortune and the law of the land await us. Follow me into the Jade Pure Sect, And the first one to break through will be handsomely rewarded. The attacking force charged towards the Jade Pure Sect, Battle cries shaking the heavens. Meanwhile, Inside the innate cave dwelling, Han Zhu received a prompt, The Jade Pure Sect is under attack

by the 19th Root Sect from both the righteous and demonic paths. You have the following choices, 1. Immediately flee to avoid trouble and receive a spiritual treasure, Or 2. Kill the enemies and protect the Jade Pure Sect and receive a spell manual. Without hesitation, Han Zhu chose the latter option, Confident in his ability to cut down enemies like harvesting crops. Adopting a know-your-enemy strategy, Han Zhu checked for the strongest nearby and initiated a simulation trial. Wei Yuan, First level of the Integration Realm, Deputy Sect Master of the Nine Dragons Sect. Three seconds later, The trial

concluded. Target defeated in three seconds. That's it. At this time, News of the 19th Root Sect's attack quickly spread throughout the Jade Pure Sect. Report, The 19th Root Sect is attacking. The Eastern Gate's defense needs reinforcement. The Southern Gate's protective formation needs new parts. However, Li Qingzhi was not panicked. He ordered the 18 Peaks Elder and the Outer Sect Elder to stabilize the troops, Activate the protective formations first, And forbade all disciples from going out to meet the attack. Although he was calm, The elders were anxious. Sect leader brother, At such a critical moment, How

can you be so calm? Even if we don't flee, We should at least send disciples to defend key positions, Right? Li Qingzhi was full of confidence. What's there to panic about? It's just a small situation. Could it be that God-slaying Elder? Exactly. The God-slaying Elder has decided to take on the 19th Root Sect alone. Firstly, to reduce the casualties of our disciples. And secondly, The 19th Root Sect hasn't split up their forces, Probably fearing sneak attacks. It's the perfect opportunity for the God-slaying Elder to wipe them out in one fell swoop. Is he confident? Rest

assured, The God-slaying Elder said he's now capable of contending with the Ancestor. If he makes such a promise, It means he's completely confident. This is a godsend opportunity. Hearing that the God-slaying Elder himself would take action, What was supposed to be a tense and serious preparation meeting, Instantly turned into a session of extravagant flattery. What a move! Taking them all out in one go. This wave is stable. Little Sister's training is effective. Outside the Innate Cave dwelling, Hanju was preparing to leave. After such a long period of intense cultivation, He wanted to stretch his limbs

a bit. Ah, too much cultivation. I've got a bit of shoulder pain. Just as he was about to perform a spell, The Dark Prison Chicken arrived. Master, you're finally coming out. Let's run away quickly. I've packed everything. The Dark Prison Chicken asked in rapid succession, Its tone anxious. Hanju thought to himself, This one really has learned a bit from me. Hanju simply bypassed it, Leaving behind the words, Don't worry, they're just a bunch of dogs and chickens. Why bother running? With those words, Hanju turned into a breeze and left. The Dark Prison Chicken looked admiringly

in the direction he left, Then suddenly realized, Wait, was the Master insulting me just now? Feeling slighted, The Dark Prison Chicken thought to itself, I am a phoenix, not a chicken. The insult was meant for that fat dog. This realization made the Dark Prison Chicken happy again. Hanju flew on his sword, Heading straight for the Nineteenth Route's ex-Allied forces, The cultivators of the Nineteenth Route sect were both nervous and excited. Ahead is the Jade Pure sect. The Jade Pure sect is doomed. They even protected Zhou Fan and Mafuciu. Truly a disgrace to the righteous path.

Is that Wei Yuan Senior really a great cultivator of the Integration Realm? Quiet. Such a powerful person is not for us to discuss. Wei Yuan was full of confidence, Not taking the Jade Pure sect seriously at all. Li Qianlong sensed someone from the Jade Pure sect approaching. Senior, someone from the Jade Pure sect is coming. Wei Yuan's spiritual sense landed on Hanju. Hm. Foundation Establishment Realm Level 9. Weakling. Suddenly sensing something amiss, Wei Yuan widened his eyes. What the heck? Full of spiritual treasures? That's nonsense. I only have one spiritual treasure, And I obtained it

by risking my life. Is this person really not the Nine Cauldron Sage? Li Qianlong suggested, Maybe it's a peace envoy. The Nine Cauldron Sage is far overseas, And couldn't possibly return so quickly. No wonder he's equipped with all defensive treasures, Probably fearing that we'll take our anger out on him. The moment the visitor arrived, Li Qianlong still thought of Hanju as just cannon fodder. The Jade Pure sect sent only you? How arrogant. Hanju calmly asked, You are Li Qianlong, right? The mastermind behind the Wei family? Such oppressive force. How does he know? I've kept that

information well protected. Li Qianlong communicated through a secret message. Something's wrong. Senior, please make your move and capture this person. Wei Yuan communicated through a secret message. He actually ignored my pressure. His strength is definitely not below mine. Li Qianlong said, This person is most likely the Godslaying Elder. It's said that he's the youngest elder in the history of the Jade Pure sect. Apparently born in the outer sect of the Jade Pure sect, And is not yet 300 years old. Not yet 300 years old? Then at best, He's just entered the spirit transformation realm. He

probably resisted my pressure with those spiritual treasures he has. Since that's the case, Godslaying Elder, Do you dare to fight me? As Wei Yuan spoke, Hanju suddenly charged at him with extreme speed. Where does this confidence come from? Never mind. I'll just finish this quickly. Wei Yuan didn't even have time to lift his magical tool. He's not abiding by the rules of engagement to launch a sneak attack. Such speed. Hanju's palm emitted six types of glows, Rapidly spinning to form a seal that struck Wei Yuan's forehead. Since stepping into the integration realm, I've comprehended a

new divine ability, Six Paths Ultimate Seal, Which can suppress the enemy's primordial spirit, And can be used as a finishing move. When the bright light dissipated, Everyone saw Wei Yuan's body suddenly fall to the ground. The body remains, But the primordial spirit is gone. Li Qianlong shouted in terror, Senior Wei Yuan, Hanju coldly said, Your turn. Hanju pointed his right index finger, Executing the Supreme Finger Divine Sword. Sword energy pierced through Li Qianlong's chest, And the domineering spiritual power of the Six Paths, Entered Li Qianlong's body. Hanju recited a spell, Disperse the spiritual essence, Destroy

his golden core, Tear apart his nascent soul, And severely damage his primordial spirit. Li Qianlong's spiritual power dissipated instantly. Another instant kill, Li Qianlong fell off the cliff with blood flowing from his seven orifices. A tragic sight indeed. This all happened too quickly, Leaving the thousands of cultivators from the 19th root sect unfounded, Frozen in shock. A cultivator, sweating profusely, Looked at his sect leader and asked with a trembling voice, Sect leader, do we still attack? Upon hearing this, The sect leader cursed, Attack? What attack? Are you a spy? We're here to support the Jade

Pure sect. The sect leader laughed a few times, Ah, It seems the Jade Pure sect doesn't need our support, So we'll be leaving first. Sorry for the disturbance. Farewell. Han Zhu didn't trouble the remaining soldiers. It's good that the 19th root sect didn't fight to the death. If they were all killed, The Jade Pure sect would truly become the enemy of the entire Great Swallow cultivation world. Now, A warning is enough. Sect leader, Li Qianlong is handed over to you. The Jade Pure sect disciples were bewildered? It's over just like that? Ha, We haven't even

finished our meeting. After Han Zhu crippled Li Qianlong, He threw him into the main peak for Li Qingzi to lead people in dealing with him, Then returned to the innate cave dwelling and placed Wei Yuan's body on the ground. With a hand gesture like a sword, A soul emerged from his forehead, Revealing itself to be Huang Zuntian, The leader of the Raincoat Holy Sect. Huang Zuntian thought Han Zhu had released him because it was time for his execution, But Han Zhu coldly asked him, Do you want to be resurrected? Hearing that resurrection was possible, Huang

Zuntian immediately became overjoyed. Han Zhu said, I have a body here whose primordial spirit has been eradicated, But the vitality of the flesh remains. You can resurrect by seizing it. Huang Zuntian knelt down with a slap and swore, After resurrection, I will follow the senior's lead exclusively, Otherwise, May the heart devil consume me and my body perish along my path. He also expressed his intention to sever all ties with the Raincoat Holy Sect once he returned. Return to the Raincoat Holy Sect? What are you thinking? The Raincoat Holy Church no longer exists. Han Zhu found

Huang Zuntian's words sincere and his conduct acceptable, But he could not fully trust him yet. Han Zhu calmly stated, This body belongs to the deputy sect leader of the Nine Dragons Sect from the Western Abyss Province, A grand cultivator of the Fusion Void Realm, Whose primordial spirit I have destroyed. I hope you can take his place. A grand cultivator of the Fusion Void Realm? Huang Zuntian's eyelids twitched wildly. I did not die in vain, But he was filled with dread inside. Han Zhu explained, I am not afraid of the Nine Dragons Sect, But wish to

avoid endless troubles. You just need to stabilize the Nine Dragons Sect and conceal this matter. I have left my mark of reincarnation in your soul. If you ever betray me, I can kill you with a single thought. Huang Zuntian quickly nodded and swore, From now on, I will never be an enemy to the senior. After hearing this, Han Zhu instructed Huang Zuntian to hurry and possess the body. Seven days later, Huang Zuntian successfully possessed the body. The system notified, Huang Zuntian's favorability towards you has increased. Seeing this notification, Han Zhu smiled satisfactorily, Finding old Huang

even more pleasing to the eye. Huang Zuntian took a deep breath, Walked up to Han Zhu, And bowed respectfully, I have been calling you the God Slaying Elder, Which is not proper etiquette. May I ask for your esteemed name or title? Han Zhu still did not want to reveal his name, Fearing that there might still be treasures like the Book of Misfortune in this world. So, he named himself after the six realms of reincarnation, Telling Huang Zuntian, You can call me reincarnation. Huang Zuntian thought, Such a powerful name, I must hold onto these coattails tightly.

At this moment, Huang Zuntian sensed that the Nine Dragons Sect was calling for him. Han Zhu instructed him to set off immediately, Do not arouse suspicion from the Nine Dragons Sect. Before leaving, Han Zhu advised Huang Zuntian, Speak less when you return, To avoid giving yourself away. Huang Zuntian, however, Had another idea in mind. Han Zhu asked, What idea? Huang Zuntian said, To use my expertise, Senior, Do you need me to work my way up to the position of sect leader of the Nine Dragons Sect? Han Zhu responded, If it makes you happy, As long

as you do not disturb me and the Jade Pure Sect, You are free to develop as you wish. After dealing with Huang Zuntian's matter, The system once again popped up a notification, You have successfully protected the Jade Pure Sect, And earned a spell manual. Congratulations on obtaining the Art of Reincarnation. This spell can reveal the true form of all beings. Seeing the system notification now, Han Zhu thought, It seems that being cautious was necessary. The effects of karma are indeed terrifying. A month later, Li Qingzi came to find Han Zhu, Bringing with him a pile

of heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Li Qingzi said, These treasures were sent by the Nineteenth Root Sect as an apology. I specifically selected the best ones for Elder Han. Li Qingzi continued, I have confronted the leaders of various sects, And it turns out that Li Qianlong, the bastard, was behind this. He is now imprisoned by me. From the prison, Li Qianlong cursed, When I get out, I will kill you all. Li Qingzi added, However, we have issued wanted orders for Zhou Fan and Ma Fuqiu, But they seem to have vanished from the face of the

earth. I'm a bit worried about them. Han Zhu consoled, Don't worry, they are both capable individuals, And might have already left the Great Swallow. Li Qingzi mentioned, Speaking of which, The Wei family has been expelled from the Great Swallow cultivation world by other sects. Without their schemes, The various powers within the Great Swallow are much more peaceful. Han Zhu agreed, That's good, we have no intention of dominating. Only through peaceful cultivation can our sect thrive. One day, Han Zhu opened the relationship list, And the system showed, Your friend Ma Fuqiu has accidentally entered an ancient

forbidden area, And obtained ancient heritage. Your friend Zhou Fan has accidentally entered an ancient forbidden area, And obtained ancient heritage. Han Zhu imagined for a moment and muttered, They wouldn't end up together in the future, would they? Continuing through the list, Han Zhu sighed, Why are these people, Especially my disciples, So troublesome? Suddenly, the system sent a prompt, Innate destiny individual detected, Do you wish to view their origins? Han Zhu exclaimed in surprise, No way, another one? The system displayed that this person was named Sun Chang'an, At the seventh level of the foundation establishment realm,

And was the reincarnation of a primordial spiritual ginseng. In a previous life, He was nurtured by Buddhists, But fell into a love trap with a female demon, Angering the gods and Buddhists, Who then cast him into the moral realm. Hearing that the god-slaying elder of the Jade Pure sect, Was the world's foremost ascetic cultivator, He specifically came to become a disciple, Hoping to cultivate with the god-slaying elder, And thus forget the secular world. Han Zhu scanned with his spiritual sense, And saw Sun Chang'an had already arrived, At the foot of the ascetic immoral mountain. Han

Zhu thought to himself, This guy really is ugly, Sun Chang'an knelt in front of a steel, Thinking, I absolutely cannot continue being a lickspittle, Xiao Mei, No, I must stop thinking about her. He shouted loudly, I, Sun Chang'an, Beg the god-slaying elder to take me as a disciple. After saying this, He began to kowtow. An hour passed with no response, Sun Chang'an thought he wasn't devout enough, So he continued to kneel with his hands clasped together. He firmly believed, As long as I persist, My sincerity will surely move the senior. Han Zhu thought, Although a

primordial spiritual ginseng is valuable, It could also attract trouble. Let's wait and see a bit longer. Thus, As spring passed and autumn came, The seasons changed in their turn. Sun Chang'an did not receive a reply, But he continued to kneel in worship. Later, Sun Chang'an became known throughout the Jade Pure sect For kneeling day and night At the foot of Ascetic Immortal Mountain. His determination became a topic of interest, With disciples occasionally visiting just to see Sun Chang'an. After initially calling out once, Sun Chang'an did not shout again. He continued to kneel in front of

the steel, Occasionally kowtowing. This kneeling lasted for five years, A full five years. One day, Ma Zhu came to visit. Having not seen her for decades, Ma Zhu had shed her former immaturity, And now resembled more of a fairy. Han Zhu noticed the complexity in Ma Zhu's eyes, And smiled, asking, Miss Amo, Are you planning to follow your brother And fall into the demon path? Ma Zhu sighed, Yes, I plan to find my clan brother And seek revenge together. Han Zhu frowned, After so many years, You still can't let go of this grudge? Ma Zhu

said, I thought I had let go of my hatred, But I have found in my cultivation That it has become my heart demon. If I cannot overcome it, This heart demon will always hinder me, Preventing me from reaching the nascent soul stage. Ma Zhu took a deep breath and said, I specifically came to bid you farewell, In the entire Jade Pure sect. Besides my clan brother, You are the one I care about the most. You are the only one who has moved my heart. Han Zhu thought to himself, Uh-oh, this sounds like a confession. In

the midst of speaking, Ma Zhu came closer. There are some things I must do, Or I'll regret them later. Afterward, Ma Zhu's face flushed with embarrassment. Han Zhu, Let's part ways here. Han Zhu grabbed her hand. Ma Zhu froze, Waiting expectantly for Han Zhu to say something. However, Han Zhu quickly let go. He simply imprinted the Six Paths Ultimate Seal Into her soul, With their cultivation levels so far apart, She didn't notice anything. Since you've made up your mind, Be careful on your way. Han Zhu said emotionlessly. Ma Zhu withdrew her arm, Cursing inwardly, You

big jerk. What was I expecting? She felt like crying as she turned to leave. Parting now, I wonder if we'll ever meet again in this life. Why won't he ask me to stay? Even just a gesture would do. Unable to resign herself, Ma Zhu suddenly turned back and loudly said, Han Zhu, If I return safely, Would you be willing to marry me? Han Zhu was stunned by the question. He didn't answer directly, But said, Of course, You'll return safely. This is typically how a scoundrel would respond. Ma Zhu cried with joy. Han Zhu, I knew

I wasn't wrong about you. However, The next second, As Ma Zhu just stepped out of Han Zhu's cave, She was caught by Master Jingxiu and Li Qinzi. Han Zhu pointed at Ma Zhu and said, See, I told you you'd be safe. Immediately after, Ma Zhu was taken away by Master Jingxiu. When she revealed her intentions, Han Zhu had immediately notified Li Qinzi with his spiritual sense. Li Qinzi wouldn't dare let Ma Zhu defect. The rebels had already caused enough trouble for the Jade Pure Sect. Then, Li Qinzi brought up Sun Qiang and at the foot

of the mountain. If I remember correctly, That monk has been kneeling for five years now, Right? Han Zhu thought, Oh no, I've been so absorbed in cultivation that I forgot about him. Han Zhu teleported to the foot of the mountain. Sun Qiang appeared somewhat delirious, His body swaying as he knelt. Even as a foundation establishment realm cultivator, Kneeling for five years was taking its toll. Han Zhu spoke, His tone indifferent. Your perseverance is commendable. I'll take you in. Sun Qiang instinctively looked up at him, His voice trembling, God slaying. Elder, It is I. Han Zhu

replied, This Sun Qiang really is ugly. The visual impact up close is significant. Sun Qiang quickly kowtowed to Han Zhu. Disciple Sun Qiang greets master. Han Zhu looked at Sun Qiang and said, By becoming my disciple, You cannot leave this mountain unless you attain immortality. Are you willing? Upon hearing this, Sun Qiang couldn't help but be overjoyed. My only desire is to cultivate in seclusion, Far from the secular world, Which is why I sought you out. Seeing his determination, Han Zhu led him back to the cave dwelling. However, Han Zhu really didn't want to look

at his face all the time. So he instructed him to find his own place for cultivation. When you break through to the Golden Core Realm, I will teach you more profound techniques. At this moment, A system notification suddenly appeared in front of Han Zhu. By taking three innate destiny individuals as disciples, Your fortune has increased, And your cultivation path has changed. You have the following choices. One, The path of the Sword Immortal. Enter the Tao with the sword. After reaching the Great Vehicle Stage, You can ascend to the Immortal Realm and become a Heavenly Sword

Immortal. Two, The Six Realms of Reincarnation. Break the Tao with loss. After reaching the Great Vehicle Stage, You can enter the Underworld and become a Ghost Sword Immortal. Three, The Reincarnation Sword Immortal. Cultivate both the Tao of the Sword and the Tao of Reincarnation. You can transcend the three realms and the five elements, Moving freely. Han Zhu carefully considered the three options. There are such benefits. The path of the Sword Immortal seems too mundane. The Ghost Sword Immortal and the Reincarnation Sword Immortal Seem to originate from the Six Realms of Reincarnation technique I practice. Based

on the descriptions, The third option is clearly the strongest. So, I'll choose that. You have chosen the Reincarnation Sword Immortal path And obtained a Divine Ability Inheritance. Cultivate both the Six Paths' Spiritual Root And the Tao of the Sword to their peaks to enter the next stage. Congratulations! You have acquired the Divine Ability, Mysterious Yellow Sword Energy. Mysterious Yellow Sword Energy is a Divine Ability of the Sword Path. Cultivate a Mysterious Yellow Sword Energy in the Golden Core. When expelled, The Sword Energy is extremely lethal. Spitting out Sword Energy? System, You really don't see me

as a human. What kind of inheritance is this? Please make sure to pass on more. As time flew by, Twelve years passed. Since Sun Chang'en joined, The Spiritual Energy within the cave dwelling indeed increased. Han Ju took advantage of this to successfully break through to the fourth level of the Fusion Void Realm. Thanks to decades of transformation with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, The Jade Pure Sect's Spiritual Energy significantly increased. The Spiritual Energy enveloped the peaks like fog, And the cultivation levels of both Inner and Outer Sect Disciples improved markedly, Bringing benefits to the entire

sect. After the Jade Purity Art was upgraded, The Elder's cultivation limit increased to the Fusion Void Realm. The Jade Pure Sect was on its way to becoming the number one sect in the Great Swallow. One day, With nothing better to do, Han Ju decided to check what was happening in his circle of friends. To his surprise, Too many people had a favorable impression of him, Most of them from the Jade Pure Sect, Making it a dizzying task to catch up. How am I supposed to finish reading all these updates? How am I supposed to cultivate

like this? The System, Being clever, Immediately sent a prompt to Han Ju. Actually, By clicking the special attention button under the character's portrait, You won't have to worry about missing any friends updates. System, You sly thing. I remember this feature wasn't available before. Why didn't you say so earlier? After choosing to pay special attention, The amount of irrelevant content significantly reduced. His friends' situations were lively and varied. The more Han Ju read, The more he affirmed his determination. It's safer to stay and cultivate in the Jade Pure Sect. Suddenly, The System showed that a friend's

status had been updated. Han Ju thought, Can a status update in real time? The System prompted, Your disciple Su Qi is being pursued and attacked by seven sects jointly. Chasing after the Calamity Star, Which sects are so lucky? Elsewhere, As the sunset dyed the sky blood red and the atmosphere turned desolate, A group of cultivators focused on one direction. There stood a man on the hillside, Unmistakably Su Qi. Su Qi was covered in blood, With disheveled hair and torn robes, Looking extremely wretched. He gritted his teeth as he glared at the enemies surrounding him. The

crowd cursed loudly, You must die today! Su Qi, You fiend! See where you can run to now! Hand over our sect's secret treasure, And you shall not die! The reason Su Qi was being pursued was that he had too many treasures on him. Over the decades, He had killed countless cultivators, And all their possessions were taken by him. With Su Qi's current strength, Dealing with these individuals one by one wouldn't be difficult. However, Even a fierce tiger can't withstand a pack of wolves, And Su Qi was already overwhelmed. Su Qi had no choice but to

use his most powerful divine ability, Looking up to the sky and shouting, Master, Save me! Hearing Su Qi call out, All the cultivators stopped in their tracks, Nervously looking around. Su Qi always managed to escape danger, And those who pursued him met tragic ends, So they suspected Su Qi had someone powerful backing him. However, No one answered him. The cultivators looked at Su Qi, And saw something was off, Realizing they might have been tricked. Thus, They all charged at Su Qi together. In the chaos of the attack, Su Qi was forced to retreat, Barely able

to hold on. Suddenly, Thunderclouds gathered, And the sky quickly darkened, Turning ominous. Everyone, Frightened, Looked up. Thunder roared and fierce winds raged, The scene resembling an apocalypse. When the first bolt of lightning struck, The seven sects realized their nightmare had arrived. The lightning wasn't ordinary, But divine thunder. Master, You've finally come. Except for Su Qi, Everyone else was struck by disaster. Su Qi looked up with respect, Thank you, Master, For saving me. Eighteen hundred years later, During a break from cultivation, Han Zhu decided to test Sun Chang'an by testing him with the Heart Sword technique.

Sun Chang'an claimed, I have mastered the Heartless Sword technique over the years, And will demonstrate it to Master immediately. Drawing his sword and reciting the incantation, He began to display the sword technique. However, As he practiced, Sun Chang'an found himself thinking of Xiao Mei again. Eliminating desires and emotions is indeed as hard as reaching the heavens. Has anyone truly mastered the Heartless Sword technique? Not wanting to disappoint Han Zhu, Sun Chang'an thrust his sword towards the imaginary Xiao Mei. With a clang, The sword was caught between two fingers. The swordsmanship is good, Just the cultivation

level is a bit low. Hearing this, Sun Chang'an thought, Blocked so easily? My swordsmanship really isn't up to par, Is it? Sun Chang'an said helplessly, Master, I still can't see through the barrier of emotions. I've disappointed you. Han Zhu sighed, Let me introduce you. This is your master's wife. Sun Chang'an exclaimed in surprise, What? Master, The Heartless Sword technique you taught must be fake, Right? Are you really the world's number one ascetic cultivator? Han Zhu kicked Sun Chang'an out and invited Xing Hongxian in. My husband, Over these decades, I've had a great opportunity and gained

insight into a powerful technique. Would you like to learn it? I can teach you. Xing Hongxian ran excitedly to Han Zhu, Offering it like a treasure. Over the years, Xing Hongxian's cultivation had soared to the 8th level of the Golden Core due to these opportunities. Han Zhu shook his head, I've already got a powerful technique. I don't need these. Xing Hongxian, Puffing her cheeks, Flipped her right hand, Revealing a peculiar fruit. This is a miraculous fruit I found in an ancient secret realm. Consuming it can enhance your energy and blood, And strengthen your physical body.

It's really amazing. I ate one and could shatter a small mountain with a single palm. Han Zhu took a fruit and immediately ate it. The fruit melted the moment it entered his throat, Turning into a scorching hot flow inside Han Zhu's body. Soon, Han Zhu felt warm all over, With a noticeable effect. But there's something off about this heat inside. At that moment, Xing Hongxian leaned in and whispered softly, Husband, I heard Ma Zhu visited you. Han Zhu felt uneasy, Wondering how she knew. In the midst of their conversation, Xing Hongxian pushed Han Zhu down.

Caught off guard, Han Zhu fell backward onto the bed. Xing Hongxian, With a flushed face, Said, Sometimes, Taking the initiative is necessary. What followed is not suitable for description. Let's skip ahead and leave it to the imagination. Several days later, Li Qingzi's urgent call saved Han Zhu. Elder Han, There's trouble. The blood flame heavenly gate from the Great Wei cultivation world Has recruited a powerful guest, And announced their intention to unify the surrounding cultivation worlds. Han Zhu had no energy to care about such matters. Let the destruction happen if it must. He couldn't hold on

any longer. Han Zhu quickly got dressed, And went out to see Li Qingzi's worried expression. Han Zhu knew this was serious. The neighboring Great Wei cultivation world Has already been unified by the blood flame heavenly gate. They're preparing to attack us in the Great Swallow. And we're their first target. Aiming directly at our jade pure sect. Han Zhu questioned, Is this blood flame heavenly gate strong? Li Qingzi admitted uncertainty. At least fusion void realm. Or they couldn't have unified the Great Wei cultivation world so quickly. Han Zhu wasn't afraid. Only concerned about the possibility of

encountering someone from the union realm. Li Qingzi asked, What if there is someone from the union realm? Elder Han, What would you do? Han Zhu didn't lie. That depends on when they decide to attack. If they're coming tomorrow, I might run. Li Qingzi chuckled, It won't be tomorrow. Considering the distance and resistance from sects along the way, It will take them decades, Or even longer to reach the jade pure sect. I just wanted to give you a heads up. He could tell what Han Zhu meant. Han Zhu laughed, Well, I might not be able to

reach the union realm in ten years either. Li Qingzi was well aware that Han Zhu's talent was rare in the world, And his cultivation would surely leap greatly in a few decades. Han Zhu always wondered, Why don't cultivators focus on their cultivation, Comprehend the true meaning of heaven and earth, And pursue eternal life, Instead of fighting over territories like mortals? Li Qingzi's explanation cleared his confusion. The ambition of demon cultivators only grows with their cultivation. Moreover, The more cultivation worlds they occupy, The more cultivation resources they can control. After explaining, Li Qingzi remembered another matter.

Elder Han, There's news about your disciple. It turns out that Yang Tiandong's disappearance was related to the last time he followed the jade pure sect to a cultivation conference. Li Qingzi said with a strange expression, We found him, But he says he's now a demon king and is living quite well. He doesn't plan to return for the time being. Han Zhu responded indifferently, With that kid's intelligence. Let him be. Before leaving, Li Qingzi mentioned another issue. By the way, Elder Han, There's been a demonic dog wreaking havoc in the cultivation world. According to descriptions from

the disciples, It seems to be the one you're raising. Han Zhu replied, Don't worry about it. It insisted on going out to wander. It'll come back once it learns its lesson. Li Qingzi sighed, As expected of you. I need to prepare for the blood flame heavenly gate matter. So I'll take my leave now. All right, Goodbye. Try not to get beaten up again. When Han Zhu returned to his cave dwelling, He found that Xing Hongxian had already left. She left a note saying, My husband is busy with many affairs. I shall join you for a

joyful union next time. Seeing such provocative words, Han Zhu couldn't help feeling a sense of emptiness. A joyful union. Complimenting each other. That might be a good idea. Since the beginning of his cultivation journey, Han Zhu had relied on system rewards. He had devoted all his energy to cultivation, And had never independently realized a divine ability. Maybe I should try it this way. The three pure shadows sword is an ultimate offensive technique. Currently the strongest single target attack move with a high killing threshold. The 10,000 sword divine sect can summon sword shadows from the river

of history, Suitable for wide range attacks. Although the scene is grand, Its precision and lethality are still lacking. If the two were combined, How terrifying would that be? Tens of thousands of ultimate sword shadows that can freely slay enemies. Wouldn't I be creating my own sword Dao divine ability? In the Western Abyss province, A region without dynasties where demons abound and human dynasties hardly venture. There are many cultivation sects, Even more than in the Great Swallow cultivation world. Inside a pavilion of the True Martial sect, Huang Jihao was meditating on a bed. Suddenly, the door

opened, And a man in blue walked in. This man was handsome, But wore a patch over one eye. The man in blue asked, Huang Jihao, Haven't you thought it through yet? Huang Jihao said expressionlessly, I didn't lose to you because my sword Dao is inadequate. Given another hundred years, I am sure I could defeat you. The Vermilion Bird Sword sect has raised me. I cannot betray them. The man in blue laughed. The True Martial sect is stronger than the Vermilion Bird Sword sect. Even stronger than the Jade Pure sect of the Great Swallow cultivation world.

Join the True Martial sect, And I will train you to be the number one sword cultivator in the world. Huang Jihao smiled bitterly, Is my talent in the sword Dao really unparalleled in the world? Yet, I've seen others with even more demonic talent in the sword Dao. The man in blue asked curiously, Someone stronger in the sword Dao than you? Where did you meet them? Surely not in some corner of your Great Swallow? Huang Jihao seriously asked, Have you heard of the God Slaying Elder from the Jade Pure sect? His strength is comparable to that

of an Fusion Void Realm Great Cultivator. Wei Yuan of the Nine Dragons sect returned in defeat, Not mentioning a word about their encounter, Which speaks volumes of the God Slaying Elder's power. The man in blue disdainfully said, Wei Yuan, his talent was never up to par. Achieving Fusion Void Realm through sheer luck and opportunities, Defeating him is not a difficult task. Just then, the treasured sword on the table suddenly began to tremble. Not just his sword, But Huang Jihao's sword resting by his side also started to tremble. Both were shocked, Huang Jihao grabbing his sword,

What's happening? Why is my sword trying to break free? The man in blue also grasped his sword, Is it an earthquake? No, it's not an earthquake. They hurried out of the room to the courtyard, Only to see many disciples' swords unsheathing simultaneously, Uncontrollably flying into the sky. My sword, why is it flying? No, my ancestral treasure sword. Looking up at the sky, Both were dumbfounded by the sight before them. Thousands of treasured swords were suspended in the air, With all their tips pointing in the same direction, Creating a spectacular scene. The man in blue, shocked,

murmured, This is the homage of ten thousand swords, The chorus of sword spirits, The sword Tao of the ages. Huang Jihao, his eyes filled with astonishment, Had never before seen all the sex swords fly into the sky, Paying homage in the same direction. Most importantly, The direction pointed towards the great swallow. Huang Jihao asked, What is the sword Tao of the ages? The man in blue took a deep breath and explained, The sword Tao of the ages Is a state of sword Tao divine ability. I never thought that there would be such a genius In

the sword Tao in the world today. Huang Jihao was stunned, An image of an unparalleled handsome face Emerging in his mind. Could it really be him? Huang Jihao asked through gritted teeth, If I join the true martial sect, Could I possibly realize such a divine ability? The man in blue earnestly said, With your talent in the sword Tao, Reaching that level is not entirely impossible. But internally he thought, You really dare to dream. Well, it's a kind lie anyway. Suddenly, an old man burst out. Who is it? Who has comprehended the sword Tao of the

ages? I, with my innate sword heart And three thousand years of ascetic cultivation, Have not found the path. How is this fair? After hearing this, Huang Jihao questioned, You just said with my innate sword heart, Reaching that level might be possible? No, I didn't say that. Meanwhile, above the jade pure sect, Countless treasured swords were suspended in the air, All trembling, Pointing towards the mountain of ascetic cultivation to immortality. But Han Zhu was unaware of this, Thinking to himself, It's so noisy outside early in the morning, Really annoying. You're disturbing my comprehension of divine ability.

Han Zhu, annoyed, Walked out of his cave dwelling, Only to see Little Rooster and Sun Qian Trembling in fear for some reason. Looking up, He saw those swords suspended in the air and was stunned. Who the hell caused this commotion? Little Rooster urged Han Zhu to quickly pack up and flee. There must be a powerful master attacking us. Han Zhu ignored it, Looking down at the sword's shadow in his palm. He saw golden light radiating, And spiritual energy gradually condensing into a golden treasured sword. With a thought, He grasped tightly with his right hand, And

the sword's shadow dissipated. Subsequently, All the swords suspended in the sky worldwide fell down. Sun Qian and Little Rooster stared at Han Zhu dumbfounded, Thinking he had once again instantly resolved the crisis with a single move. At this moment, The system prompted, Congratulations on comprehending the 10,000 epics grade sword Dao divine ability. Please name it. Han Zhu was slightly stunned by the line that appeared before him. 10,000 epics grade? There are grades for divine abilities? After some thought, He decided. Let's call it Three Pure Worlds Extermination. Naming successful. Since this is the first time you've

comprehended a divine ability, Your fortune has increased. You have the following choices. 1. Make a grand appearance with Three Pure Worlds Extermination, Terrifying the world, And receive a spiritual treasure. 2. Cultivate low-key, Continue to grow stronger until you are invincible in the world, And receive a spiritual treasure. Han Zhu silently chose the second option. Little Rooster and Sun Chan watched Han Zhu in silence for a while, Thinking he had suffered backlash from casting a spell. Little did they know, Han Zhu's body suddenly burst with spiritual light, Nearly blinding them. The system notified Han Zhu, You

have obtained the 3rd grade spiritual treasure Earth Emperor's Spirit Banner. This item is a 3rd grade defensive spiritual treasure, Capable of automatically blocking attacks that could harm its owner. Another defensive spiritual treasure, And a 3rd grade one at that. Awesome. Who can touch me? Who can break my defense? He suddenly had a bold thought, If I go out and act high profile now, Would the system take back the spiritual treasure? After thinking, He shook his head, Never mind, I wanted to keep a low profile anyway. The system offered choices based on my preferences, There's no

need to test it. The scene shifts to the Western Abyss province, The Nine Dragons' Sack, Where Huang Zuntian, The body snatcher of Wei Yuan, Was cultivating in a Taoist temple. Huang Zuntian opened his eyes to see an old Taoist entering the temple. Sitting down in front of Huang Zuntian, The old man chuckled, Brother Wei, I have come to discuss a matter with you. Huang Zuntian tensed up, Why has the sect master of the Nine Dragons' Sack suddenly come to me? The old Taoist spoke, Our sect has been in conflict with the True Martial sect for

a long time, And other resource-rich areas in the Western Abyss province have been almost entirely occupied. I want our disciples to enter the Great Swallow cultivation world. You've been to the Great Swallow before, How about you lead the way? Upon hearing this, Huang Zuntian frowned, Invade the Great Swallow? Are we tired of living? Huang Zuntian hesitated, Can we not go to the Great Swallow? We could go to other cultivation worlds. The world is vast, And there are better places than the Great Swallow. The old Taoist shook his head, It is precisely because the Great Swallow

is weak that we target them. This matter is settled then. Prepare yourself. I will go select disciples. The old Taoist smiled, If you handle this matter well, The position of sect master will eventually be yours. Huang Zuntian thought to himself, I'm not interested in your empty promises. Watching him leave, Huang Zuntian secretly vowed, Old fox, Is this what you call a discussion? Damn it, You're forcing my hand. It seems I have no choice but to take your position as sect master. With Han Zhu creating an ancient divine ability, It caused a stir across the world.

For a time, Every sect felt threatened. However, Aside from a certain Taoist with the surname Huang, No one believed that the power behind the ancient sword Tao could be hidden in the Great Swallow. Huang Jihao was holding a portrait of Han Zhu, Desperately explaining, I swear on my integrity, I'm telling the truth, There really is a sword immortal in the Great Swallow. Passersby disbelieved, The Great Swallow is so weak, How could there possibly be a sword immortal? You need to improve your painting skills. A sword immortal doesn't look like this. Huang Jihao was furious, He

really does look like this. Hey! Meanwhile, At a scatic immortal mountain, Han Zhu was making his own heavenly puppet, When the system suddenly prompted, You have reached 300 years of age, Another 100 years have passed on your cultivation journey. You have the following choices, One, Come out of seclusion now to show the world your strength, And receive a fortune-enhancing divine beast egg. Two, Continue to cultivate in a low-profile manner, Hiding your abilities and your name, And receive a spiritual treasure. Han Zhu immediately chose the second option without hesitation, And obtained another defensive necklace. Excited, He

opened the system's relationship panel, To see what had happened over the last two years. One particular update caught Han Zhu's attention, Your disciple Su Qi has been captured by the royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty. Inside the Great Jin Dynasty, Su Qi was thrown into a room, Heavily injured and unable to deal with even two ordinary guards. The soldiers didn't plan to make things harder for him, Since the emperor had already decreed that Su Qi was to marry the eldest princess. But until the marriage, Su Qi wasn't allowed to go anywhere. The guards outside

whispered, How is this guy so lucky to marry the eldest princess? But I heard the eldest princess just took another male concubine yesterday. Shush, We shouldn't speak of this. Besides, The national advisor said the fate of the Great Jin Dynasty lies with this lad. Isn't that absurd? Hearing he was detained by a dynasty, Su Qi felt uneasy. This is bad. Being detained by a dynasty means if my master comes to rescue me, It'd be opposing the entire dynasty. Master, You better not come. Just then, Desperate cries for help came from outside, And Su Qi saw

through the door flames and smoke rising. People fleeing shouted, Run! What kind of monster is this? Locusts! All locusts! Locusts? What's there to be afraid of? So, He looked through the crack of the door towards the distance, And indeed, The sky was filled with locusts larger than houses. Su Qi was stunned, Wondering where all these demonic locusts came from. Could it be his master? He cheered. Thank you for saving me, Master. I will make sure to complete the task. Unaware that he himself had brought about this disaster, Soon, Han Ju also received an update from

the system. Your disciple Su Qi has spread misfortune, Causing the Great Jin Dynasty to suffer from a millennium-level locust plague, Floods, And pestilence, Bringing the country to the brink of ruin. Above the endless wasteland, As countless locusts had passed, Leaving behind a storm of dust, A figure was walking through the storm. It was Su Qi. He thought to himself, My master's prowess is truly strong, Capable of destroying a kingdom with locusts that dare not come near me. Over the years, He had endured many hardships, But always managed to survive. He believed. This is my master

testing my Dao heart. Not long after, Su Qi saw an old, Crooked tree ahead with a figure sitting underneath. A ragged old man meditating, His face's wrinkles resembling the tree bark behind him. Su Qi greeted with a fist and palm salute. Senior, May I ask where this place is? The old man replied without opening his eyes. Northern province. Hearing this, Su Qi suddenly felt an urge to cry. Northern province? After nearly a hundred years, I've finally, Finally arrived at the northern province. He immediately turned and knelt down, Bowing towards the sky behind him. Master, Do

you see this? Your disciple has not let you down. The old man opened his eyes and looked at him strangely, So happy to reach the northern province. Do you know what place the northern province is? Su Qi stood up, Turned towards him, Wiped his tears away, And smiled. Ah, I indeed don't know much, But the monster-taming demon sect is in the northern province, Right? The old man frowned and asked, Do you have a connection with the monster-taming demon sect? Su Qi excitedly said, I will once I join the monster-taming demon sect. The old man shook

his head, I see, The threshold for the monster-taming demon sect is quite high, Even with your golden core realm cultivation, Joining won't be easy. Besides, The northern province is a land where demons run amok. He advised Su Qi, Young man, I urge you not to step into the northern province. It's a hell on earth. Su Qi laughed. Is that so? I'll be careful then. But he thought to himself, The northern province? Is it more formidable than my master? In the blink of an eye, Another five years passed. The great swallow experienced a rare blizzard, Covering

the entire jade pure sect in snow, A picturesque scene of desolate beauty. Han Zhu stepped out of his cave dwelling to a world blanketed in white. I've lived a hundred years, And this is the first time I've encountered such heavy snow. Little rooster and Sun Qiangen found it fun, But Han Zhu sensed something unusual. As Han Zhu pondered, The system suddenly prompted, A millennium-old demon is about to awaken. You have the following choices, One, emerge now, Slay the demon, Save the people, And receive a spiritual treasure and a divine ability inheritance. Two, continue your cultivation,

Steer clear of danger, And receive a random heavenly material and earthly treasure seed. A millennium-old demon? Sounds formidable. I'd be foolish to go and slay it. Without hesitation, Han Zhu immediately chose the second option. The system congratulated him. You have chosen to continue your cultivation, Steering clear of danger. You receive a random heavenly material and earthly treasure, Fusang tree seed. The Fusang tree, A divine tree of heaven and earth, Can enhance the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. After ten thousand years, It can attract a golden crow. And after a million years, It can connect

to other realms. Han Zhu looked at the seed that suddenly appeared in his hand, And raised an eyebrow slightly. The Fusang tree, Related to the sun and myths. But a million years is too long. Han Zhu turned and called Sun Qiangen over to the front of the cave dwelling. Sun Qiangen's eyes gleamed with anticipation. Master, Could it be that master is going to teach me a divine ability? Han Zhu handed him the seed, Saying, This is my treasure tree. From today onwards, You are to plant it here and meditate in front of it every day.

You must protect it well. If it doesn't grow well, I will hold you accountable. Meanwhile, In another realm, Also blanketed in snow, Countless demons crawled in the forests. Yang Tiandong led the group. Yang Tiandong turned to an old tree demon beside him and asked, How much longer? The old tree demon replied, Soon, The great Dian Su demon king will awaken. Yang Tiandong frowned, If he's so powerful, Why has he been asleep for two thousand years? Two thousand years ago, Before the Great Swallow existed, This place was rarely visited by humans, And was a paradise for

our demon kind. Dian Su demon king was the only demon king in this land, And all demons obeyed him. Until one time, A human cultivator stumbled into this land. Seeing him injured, Dian Su demon king helped him. However, That man betrayed his kindness and brought countless cultivators to attack us. A war that lasted decades erupted. Dian Su demon king was sealed here, And we, The demons, Were decimated. Few survived. Yang Tiandong asked with a frown, Don't those cultivators worry that Dian Su demon king might awaken? The old tree demon scoffed, Human hearts are uglier than

those of demons. Two thousand years have passed, And they're no longer united against a common enemy. They might have already turned on each other, With few still alive. Yang Tiandong asked, When Dian Su demon king awakens, Will he slaughter all the humans in the Great Swallow? Of course, This territory originally belonged to us. The old tree demon replied, Yang Tiandong thought of the Jade Pure sect in Hanju, Planning to inform his master of this news as soon as possible. Soon, The group of demons arrived at the mountaintop where the demon king was sealed. They felt

the oppressive force growing stronger from beneath the ice. As a beam of golden light faded, The sound of icebergs shattering echoed in the distance. Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, The demon king broke through the seal, Emerging from the ice. Blood-light soared into the sky atop the mountain, And a roar suppressed for a thousand years tore through the heavens. The demons felt an unprecedented terror and pressure. Yang Tiandong felt a strong unease. This is bad. This pressure far exceeds my master's. Master is in danger. At this moment, Outside his cave dwelling, Hanju also received a system

alert about the demon king's emergence. I didn't expect this demon king to come so soon. The blizzard and the great swallow lasted for two years before stopping. One day, A figure stealthily infiltrated the Jade Pure sect's scripture pavilion. This person's cultivation was so high that no one knew the pavilion had been thoroughly searched. Among the scriptures, Nothing caught this person's eye except for a booklet titled Observations of a Hundred Female Cultivators. Finally, A Jade Pure sect disciple guarding the pavilion noticed the intrusion and attacked with a sword. In an instant, Two disciples were knocked out

and thrown out of the pavilion. The intruder mocked boldly. Trash. Just trash. This is the foundation of the Jade Pure sect. Is this really the number one sect and the great swallow? So weak. He looked towards the direction where the spiritual energy was densest. Ascetic Immortal Mountain. Thinking, That must be where the god-slaying elder is in seclusion. I really want to see what it would be like for you to kneel before me. Begging for mercy. He he he. Han Ju also detected that a powerful individual had entered the Jade Pure sect. Leisure True Person. Fusion

Void Realm Ninth Layer. An elder of the Blood Flame Heavenly Gate. Han Ju thought, Since that's the case, it's time to deal with you. After taking a booklet of female cultivator portraits from the scripture pavilion, Leisure True Person flew towards Ascetic Immortal Mountain. As he neared the peak with surging spiritual energy, he suddenly felt uneasy. Having wandered the cultivation world for many years, he trusted his instincts. He also remembered the advice of the sect master Lu Bami before leaving. Brother, I know you enjoy seeking the Tao. Don't forget the main purpose of our trip to

the Great Swallow. Of course. My primary goal is still to assess the strength of potential enemies for the sect. I have my measures. This time I plan to disguise myself as one of their disciples. If their sect is strong, we will bide our time. If weak, I will eradicate them directly. As he flew closer, the spiritual energy became denser. Soon, he reached Han Ju's territory. Looking at the foundation of the Jade Pure sect. It's just S.O.S.O. No wonder the Nine Cauldron Sage refused to stay in the Jade Pure sect. Always limited by his narrow view,

his cultivation will never progress. If I'm not mistaken, they call this place Ascetic Immortal Mountain. Such taste. Lacking. In a flash, Leisure True Person saw a huge Dharma figure suddenly appear in front of him, which abruptly vanished the moment he was taken aback. Is it an illusion? Ascetic Immortal Mountain is right before my eyes. Yet for some reason, an inexplicable sense of danger arises in my heart. Despite having reached the Fusion Void realm many years ago, this is the first time I've felt this way. There are some entities in the cultivation world that defy common

logic. Caution is the best approach. He then formed a seal, enchanted, sending out a part of his spiritual sense. Meanwhile, atop Ascetic Immortal Mountain, Han Ju sat in meditation, quietly waiting. He sensed. I've sensed him. He's here. From afar. Leisure True Person saw him and thought to himself. What a handsome man. He's only at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment realm. He must be a disciple of the Godslaying Elder. Leisure True Person looked at Han Ju and asked with a smile. Young man, is the Godslaying Elder here? At that moment, a system notification came

to Han Ju. Leisure True Person has developed a favorable impression of you. Current favorability is two stars. Han Ju replied helplessly. What do you want? Leisure True Person answered with a charming smile. Of course, to ask him to submit to our Bloodflame Heavenly Gate. Submit? How about facing my sword first? Han Ju flipped his right hand and took out the Primordial Judgment Sword. Seeing the Primordial Judgment Sword, Leisure True Person's pupils shrank. This treasure has an extraordinary origin. Even without releasing sword energy, its dominance is already palpable. Wait. He seems to be covered in spiritual

treasures. Could he be the Godslaying Elder? Leisure True Person was shocked. Fusion Void Realm. So, you are the Godslaying Elder. With a burst of golden light from his hand, Han Ju shouted. Three pure worlds extermination. As the treasured sword was thrust into the ground, countless golden sword shadows struck Leisure True Person with such speed that he couldn't react. His body instantly pierced by several sword energies. Before Leisure True Person could stabilize himself, he was horrified to see countless sword shadows covering the sky from all directions. This is bad. My escape is cut off. I can't

escape. The sword energy is too overbearing. I have no way to counter it. I'm doomed. I must sacrifice that item and escape in the chaos. In an instant, Leisure True Person sacrificed a spiritual treasure. Azure Lotus Supreme Treasure Tower. The small tower quickly expanded, covering his body. But then it was struck by countless sword shadows. Leisure True Person then formed a spell with his hands. Self-destruction of the spiritual treasure. And in an instant, spiritual power exploded, sending multicolored shockwaves into the sky. Leisure True Person's physical body, along with the Azure Tower, was directly blasted into

ashes. Far away, Leisure True Person's avatar trembled. Vomiting blood. Damn it. This is a heavy loss. But I'll remember this. Luckily, he had used the Bright-Dark Separation technique to leave an avatar. So, even if his physical body died, the avatar could become the true body. The tyranny of the sword energy is unprecedented. Even the remnants reached me here. With just one move, both the Azure Lotus Tower and my body were gone. Truly a loss of both wife and troops. What kind of demon or ghost is the Godslaying Elder? This place is not safe to stay.

I must quickly inform the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate about this. And we must not provoke them. After the explosion, Hanju also detected that Leisure True Person's spiritual energy was still present. Transformed into spiritual energy. It was an avatar. Damn. My power has been exposed. I was careless. And the enemy was equally cautious. This is going to be troublesome. What if after the smaller ones come the bigger ones? Oh, right. He's among my contacts. Targeting him just got easier. With that, Hanju took out the Book of Misfortune and started cursing Leisure True Person. Three years later, Leisure

True Person finally escaped back to the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate. Seeing the sorry state of Leisure True Person. Lubomi was shocked. Junior brother. I've finally returned. Holy crap. Senior brother. How did you end up in such a sorry state? Leisure True Person recounted all the misfortunes he encountered on his way back. But he did not mention Hanju. Lubomi said. I see. That's not a big problem. Oh, right. Our sect disciples have completed their training. And your return is timely. Leisure True Person looked towards the training ground. Huh? Let's flatten the Great Swallow together. Remembering Hanju's unparalleled

face. Leisure True Person's soul couldn't help but tremble. No. Don't go to the Great Swallow. Junior brother. Absolutely not. The Jade Pure sect in the Great Swallow has an unmatched powerhouse. I couldn't even take one of his moves. Let's postpone the invasion. Lubomi widened his eyes in shock. But. Our Bloodflame Heavenly Gate is fully prepared. If we give up now, won't all our preparations be in vain? Besides. We've just unified the Great Way. And the morale of our people is high. Damaging morale at this time is also inappropriate. Senior brother. We still need more resources.

We must dispatch troops. With that guest elder on our side, we might stand a chance. Leisure True Person sighed. This godslaying elder has always kept a low profile. The Jade Pure sect's status as the number one sect in the Great Swallow is largely due to him. He seems to be at the Fusion Void realm. But the impression he gives me is very elusive. Saying he is unfathomable is not an exaggeration. Even that guest elder might not have an advantage against him. You know my intuition is always accurate. It's better to be safe than sorry. Lubomi

furrowed his brows. Unable to comprehend how the Great Swallow could possess such a formidable individual. Then. Let's target the Western Abyss province instead. This statement sparked widespread discussion. What? Weren't we targeting the Great Swallow? Isn't going to the Western Abyss province also passing through the Great Swallow? We're not attacking them? The Nine Dragons sect of the Western Abyss province has recently undergone a turmoil. Striking them while they're weak is also our opportunity. Leisure True Person went back to heal his injuries. Promising to assist them in attacking the Western Abyss province once he had recovered. As

he left. He thought. The Great Swallow. How can it possess such a formidable individual? Better to avoid it in the future. In the northern part of the Great Swallow. Snow stretched for hundreds of miles. And within the vast expanse of snow stood a terrifying figure hundreds of meters tall. With many transformed Demon Kings gathered together. Kneeling before it. The Old Tree Demon was the first to speak. We await Demon King's orders. Demon King. When shall we wash the Great Swallow's human race in blood? Dian Su Demon King responded with a cold tone. Wash the human

race in blood? When did I ever say I wanted to wash the human race in blood? Yang Tiandong clearly felt a terrifying spiritual sense sweeping over them. Eventually focusing on Yang Tiandong. Dian Su Demon King noticed the one with a distinctly different aura. Half-demon power. Half-human energy. A half-demon. And with such strong energy. This kid has hidden himself well. No wonder these demons haven't noticed. Interesting. Dian Su Demon King thought. Then said. Little Demon. Come here. Yang Tiandong tensed up at Dian Su Demon King's words. Cautiously raising his eyes to look. Terrifying. Suffocating. An oppressive

aura that feels like heading into the abyss. Dian Su Demon King as the Lord of the Abyss. Fear engulfed Yang Tiandong. At this moment feeling. I'm done for. Meanwhile. In another part of the cultivation world. Within the dungeons of the Nine Dragons set. A person was chained to a massive stone. This person was the sect master of the Nine Dragons set. Who cursed. Wei Yuan. In this life. I will be at odds with you. Standing in front of him was indeed Wei Yuan. Whose body had been taken over by Huang Zuntian. Holding a dagger. Wei

Yuan asked. Senior brother. How many years has it been since I returned from the Jade Pure set? The sect master remained silent. But Wei Yuan continued. Let me tell you. It's been 16 years. A whole 16 years. Do you know how I've spent these 16 years? Ever since I came back. I've been under your control. Needing your permission for everything. To win over your confidence. I've put in a lot of effort. And now I've finally brought you down. The Nine Dragons sect master said. Junior brother wouldn't think so far ahead. Who exactly are you? As

soon as he finished speaking. Wei Yuan swiftly slit his throat. Wei Yuan walked out of the dungeon slowly. And his astute disciples immediately hailed. Greetings to the sect master. An elder asked Wei Yuan. Sect master. What's our direction for development? What are our goals? Wei Yuan coldly responded. Nothing special. Just focus on ascetic cultivation. Should we continue preparing to attack the Great Swallow? Hearing this. Wei Yuan was startled. Nobody is allowed to mention the Great Swallow again. I'll be angry at anyone who brings it up. Yes. Sect master. After the millennium old demon Dian Su

Demon King emerged. There was no movement. And the cultivation world of the Great Swallow remained peaceful. One day. With nothing better to do. Han Zhu took out the Book of Misfortune. To see if any of his enemies had died. Han Zhu complained to the Book of Misfortune. After so long. There's still no change in the Book of Misfortune. I was too careless in that last battle. Not expecting the enemy to be as cautious as me. And the Book of Misfortune couldn't do anything to him. In the future. If I encounter an enemy. I must use

my strongest move to instantly kill them. Not long after. Li Qingzi's shouts came from outside the cave dwelling. His face filled with worry. Elder Han. Something terrible has happened. Han Zhu felt a jolt in his heart. Waiting for Li Qingzi to elaborate. Speak. Is it the millennium old demon attacking? Or has the blood flame heavenly gate come? It's neither. It's about the Nine Dragons sect. Wei Yuan. Who had a grudge with you before. Has become the new sect master of the Nine Dragons sect. Do you think he might come for revenge? Ha. He became the

sect master. This reminded Han Zhu of Huang Zuntian's previous promise. Do you need me to become the sect master? Han Zhu was speechless. That works. With Huang Zuntian successfully taking over as the sect master of the Nine Dragons sect. Han Zhu considered one of his concerns resolved. The system notified. Huang Zuntian has developed a favorable impression towards you. Current favorability is five stars. Han Zhu reassured Li Qingzi not to worry. Sect leader. Rest assured. I've made a promise with Wei Yuan. He won't trouble us. Li Qingzi was relieved. Really? That's great. Elder Han. Just as

Han Zhu was about to return to his seclusion. Li Qingzi stopped him. Elder Han. Would you be willing to become the fourth sect leader of the Jade Pure sect? Over the years. You've contributed so much to the Jade Pure sect. And your achievements are unparalleled. No one is more suitable than you. But Han Zhu immediately and decisively refused. Being the sect leader is really not good. Not to mention getting beaten up all the time. There's also so much to manage. And most importantly. There's no time for cultivation. Elder Han. Please reconsider. Han Zhu walked away

without looking back. Leaving Li Qingzi standing there in a daze. Stepping out of the innate cave dwelling. Li Qingzi couldn't help but look towards the Fusang tree. After so many years. Ascetic Immortal Mountain has changed quite a bit. I remember there wasn't this sapling before. Even in its germination period. It can produce such vast spiritual energy. What kind of heavenly material and earthly treasure is this? And that demonic pet has reached the Golden Core realm. Even stronger than some disciples in the sect. It's baffling. They're even inferior to a chicken. Suddenly. A demonic aura brushed

past Li Qingzi. Another Golden Core realm demon. Damn it. A half-human. Half-demon. Yang Tiandong. Arriving in front of the innate cave dwelling. Yang Tiandong knelt down with tears in his eyes. Worshipping Han Zhu. Master. I've returned. You actually remembered to come back. Yang Tiandong immediately clung to Han Zhu's legs. Crying. Master. I. I was captured by a demon king. Went through numerous adventures. And eventually became a demon king myself. With countless demons under my command. Which I couldn't bear to leave. Who would have thought. The Great Swallow has now seen the most powerful Diansu Demon

King in history. The original demon kings of the Great Swallow could only submit to him. And he even forced me to become his adopted son. He has a huge conspiracy to domesticate the human race of the Great Swallow. And now he's preparing to lead the demons to the border of the Great Swallow. What? Say that again. Yang Tiandong repeated. Diansu Demon King is preparing to attack the Great Swallow. Now he's about to unify the Great Swallow. No. The sentence before that. Diansu Demon King forced me to become his adopted son. Han Zhu gritted his teeth

and said. A disciple is also a son. The vengeance of taking a son is irreconcilable. How strong is he? Yang Tiandong answered. He's extremely powerful. At least in the Union Realm. Before he came. The strongest demon king in the Great Swallow was only at the Spirit Transformation Realm. But Diansu Demon King could kill us just with his aura. I only managed to escape under the pretense of scouting the Great Swallow. Master. We should flee quickly. No. We're not running. Yang Tiandong was very puzzled. He knew that facing an almost invincible millennium old demon like Diansu

Demon King. His master would surely choose to avoid danger. Then Han Zhu suddenly had an idea. Go back to that demon king and tell him that I admire him very much. Basically. Speak well of me to him. Make him develop a good impression of me. Yang Tiandong was very puzzled. Master. Are you planning to defect? Han Zhu didn't bother with explanations. Instructing Yang Tiandong to quickly go back and follow his orders. Three months later, Han Zhu checked his messages in the relationship panel. Su Qi actually joined the monster-taming demon sect. This kid is something. In

the special attention section, another message instantly energized Han Zhu. Diansu Demon King has developed a favorable impression of you. Current favorability is one star. Finally, I wonder how Yang Tiandong managed to persuade that demon king. If Han Zhu knew that Yang Tiandong had shown his portrait to the demon king, he would be furious. At the moment, the demons were contemplating capturing Han Zhu to present him to Diansu Demon King as the chief consort. Yang Tiandong exclaimed. But master isn't a woman. Don't worry. We demons don't care about these details. Look how pleased our lord is.

After making up his mind, Han Zhu took out the Book of Misfortune to curse Diansu Demon King. Han Zhu thought. Union realm fourth layer. With my current cultivation at the fusion void realm seventh layer, winning a direct confrontation seems unlikely. But the Book of Misfortune can do it. And I'm not afraid of him discovering it. Previous curses have proven that even higher level cultivators can't trace the cause and effect of a curse. Although it hasn't recorded killing an enemy directly, it can still be a nuisance regardless of the cultivation level. As long as these people

are in my friends list, the Book of Misfortune can specifically target them with curses. Just writing the name, however, makes the curse's output insufficiently sustained. Which is why I haven't managed to kill enemies with it before. Li Qianlong is proof of that. The key point is, I've never cursed with all my strength before. A full power curse requires a considerable amount of spiritual power. Let's try using all my spiritual power to curse this time and see what effect it has on Dian Su Demon King. The Book of Misfortune emitted strands of eerie blood energy, making

Dian Su Demon King's name seem especially sinister. The system suddenly issued a warning. Excessive use of the Book of Misfortune may lead to backlash. The Book of Misfortune finally gave feedback. The first time. Let's stop here. The effect of using the Book of Misfortune with all my strength is domineering. Five stars. But it's a bit of harming the enemy by a thousand and self-harming by 800. Decided. I'll curse Dian Su Demon King once every three years. Let's keep him from getting ideas about us. At this moment. In a demon lair amidst icy snow. Dian Su

Demon King was tormented by Han Ju's curse. Suffering terribly. What chilled him the most was that he could no longer cultivate. The demonic power in his body decreased instead of increasing with each breath he took. Cough cough. Who have I offended to deserve such despicable tactics? Could it be? They have returned? No. That's impossible. This. This. A miracle. Celestial immortals from heaven. Do they know about my plan to obliterate the Great Swallow? So they've come to warn me. Ten years later. As the Fusang tree continued to grow. The closest innate cave dwelling benefited first. With

a surge in spiritual energy. Han Ju and Xing Hong Xian. The sweet couple. Lived a shameless life. Sweating profusely. Organizing small events every two days. And big ones every three. However. This manga is a very serious cultivation manga. So the couple only indulged in eating snail noodle soup. Tasting the delicacies of the world. While eating. Han Ju detected the arrival of two fusion void realm auras. At the Jade Pure Sect. One of whom was an old acquaintance. Han Ju told Xing Hong Xian to keep eating. While he would return shortly. Leaving Xing Hong Xian yearning

for more. She alone in the room said. Husband. Come back soon. It won't taste good when it's cold. Otherwise. I'll help you eat it. Looking at the ascetic immortal mountain in front of him. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian laughed. So. This is the Jade Pure Sect you spoke of? Are there really experts here as you claimed? I don't feel any strong sword intent. It seems to be just SOSO. The speaker was Sheng Huan Qiu Qian. Who had previously persuaded Huang Jihao. To join the True Martial Sect. And fusion void realm ninth layer expert. And the sword

elder of the True Martial Sect. Huang Jihao advised him. Don't speak too soon. I thought the same last time. Before they could continue. They heard a voice from behind. What brings you to the Jade Pure Sect? Surprised. The two turned around. And Huang Jihao immediately bowed. And said with a trembling voice. Huang Jihao pays respects to the senior. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian thought. When did he arrive? I didn't detect his presence at all. Is this the senior Huang Jihao described? Huang Jihao. Let me tell you. You really need to practice your drawing skills. How could

you make such a handsome guy look like a melon? Huang Jihao awkwardly said. I really didn't know the senior had changed his hairstyle. That's not the point. Han Ju telepathically asked Huang Jihao. Huang Jihao. If you are being kidnapped. Blink your eyes. Huang Jihao respectfully said. Senior. Rest assured. We mean no harm. This is Sheng Huan Qiu Qian. The number one sword cultivator. From the True Martial Sect of the Western Abyss province. We are here to exchange sword techniques with you. Han Ju thought to himself. An exchange? Just at the Fusion Void Realm Ninth Layer.

How dare he? Sheng Huan Qiu Qian chuckled. Fellow Taoist. Don't worry. It's just a friendly exchange. It will not affect the relationship between the Jade Pure Sect and the True Martial Sect. We will stop at the right moment. Han Ju sighed. Ah. I'm a person who dislikes trouble. How about this? I'll make one move. And if you can withstand it. I'll consider it my loss. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian. Thinking Han Ju was afraid. Readily accepted. You look down on me? Well. I would like to see what's so special about your one move. Huang Jihao. Already

understanding Han Ju's intention. Was terrified to the point of being pale and speechless. Han Ju said. Then I must offend fellow Taoist Sheng Huan. He then suddenly drew out the Primordial Judgment Sword. Seeing the sword energy released by Han Ju. Huang Jihao thought. It's over. The senior is stronger than before. Eight layers of Fusion Void Realm's spiritual power. Like a mountain torn bursting. All poured into the Primordial Judgment Sword. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian also felt this strike was extraordinary. As a sword energy swept across the sky. And time seemed to stand still. Sheng Huan Qiu

Qian widened his eyes and reached for the sword at his waist. Instant skill to face. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian thought he was dead. With his life flashing before his eyes in an instant. Standing there as if soulless. The ground next to Sheng Huan Qiu Qian was sliced open by the sword energy. Leaving a chasm that seemed bottomless. Han Ju sheathed the Primordial Judgment Sword and said indifferently. Using my left hand really did affect my accuracy a bit. Ah. Were you holding back? It seems you couldn't even catch a single sword strike. Han Ju said softly.

His cold expression making Huang Jihao feel as if he was looking at a sword immortal. At the end of the path of swordsmanship. With a thud. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian's legs went weak. And he knelt on the ground. Not just unable to catch it. I didn't even have a chance to resist. Me. The number one sword cultivator of the True Martial Sect. Couldn't withstand a single strike from someone else. I even aspired to be the number one sword cultivator in the world. How ridiculous that seems now. Han Ju encouraged. Don't be disheartened. As the saying

goes. There's always someone better out there. And you can't see a rainbow without a bit of rain. Your talent is decent. And you have a promising future. It's not impossible to win against me. I see potential in you. Hearing Han Ju say this. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian was stunned. I. Have lost. After his defeat in the exchange. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian became completely listless. Seeing Sheng Huan Qiu Qian kneeling before him. Han Ju suddenly felt a bit of pity. Did I go too far? Maybe he wasn't here to cause trouble. Just genuinely seeking guidance. I

held back in my strike. He should be able to recover quickly. Let's not speak of today's events to anyone else. With that. Han Ju turned to leave. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian hastily got up. Senior. Please wait. May I know your Taoist name? Reincarnation. Dropping this word. Han Ju then left on his sword. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian stood there dazed. Repeating the word reincarnation to himself. Huang Jihao consoled. I had it worse than you at first. This is nothing. At least you weren't injured. Reincarnation. Could it be that this Taoist name belongs to a great power

living incognito among us? It seems I've been a frog in a well. System notification. Sheng Huan Qiu Qian has developed a good impression of you. Current favorability is three stars. Han Ju couldn't help but shake his head. Do these geniuses have something in common? Getting beaten up raises their favorability? To be fair, Han Ju really did look cool with that move. But the aftermath was rather awkward. The tree that Han Ju split in half was named the Jade Pure Tree, personally planted by the Nine Cauldrons Sage on the day the sect was founded. No. The

Jade Pure Tree. That was personally planted by our ancestor, the Nine Cauldrons Sage, on the day our sect was founded. It's been over a thousand years. Who the hell cut it down? Li Qingzi, knowing full well it was Han Ju's doing, could only swallow his bitterness. Han Ju guiltily said, I happened to witness it. It was done by a cat. What kind of cat has such power? And what's with this crack in the ground? Do you know how hard it is to redraw the map? Han Ju also felt this incident was too ostentatious, violating his

principle of keeping a low profile. Some techniques become more powerful as my cultivation level increases. No. I need to figure out a move that can strike enemies discreetly without affecting the surrounding environment. Meanwhile, in the icy, snowy lair of the demons, the Dian Su Demon King was going mad. Ever since that bizarre injury, he would relive that nightmare every three years. Why? That feeling again. Who is targeting me? He was clueless about the root of the problem. If it was indeed the work of an immortal, why not just kill him? One day, a lesser demon

came to report. Report to Demon King. Your adopted son Yang Tiandong has arrived. Dian Su Demon King thought, Fine, let him in. Yang Tiandong bluffed Dian Su Demon King, saying, Adoptive father, hearing of your troubles, your son has come to relieve you of them. Oh, you know about my issues? Yang Tiandong took the opportunity to continue. Adoptive father, I've recently sought a divination from a wise man, and it's suggested that your troubles are related to your endeavors. Dian Su Demon King pondered, Is that so? Could this curse be related to my plans to attack the

human race? It's not impossible. Better to believe it and be cautious. Perhaps it is indeed for this reason that the immortals have cursed me. Yang Tiandong asked, So, adoptive father, are we canceling our plans to attack the human race? Dian Su Demon King sighed resignedly. Let's cancel it for now. You notify the others. Yang Tiandong outwardly complied, but inwardly he was disdainful. Was it really that easy to deceive him? Master, great swallow is saved, but that's not enough. I have greater ambitions. A man should not live under others forever. Just you wait. Dian Su Demon

King, your position as Demon King will eventually be mine. Half a year later, Sheng Huan Xiuqian and Huang Jihao returned to the True Martial Sect. After being defeated by Han Zhu, Sheng Huan Xiuqian's Dao heart was nearly destroyed. To solidify his Dao heart, he continuously challenged summoners in the valley during his return journey to rebuild his confidence. Sheng Huan Xiuqian said to Huang Jihao, I feel like I've regained my confidence. Yes. And the fact that this master was of highland bloodline and you defeated him shows you your level. Not everyone is like Senior Han. I

plan to go into seclusion at the True Martial Sect for a while to consolidate my Dao heart. I will go back and challenge that senior again in the future. Huang Jihao exclaimed in surprise, You're going back. I won't carry you back next time. Just then, the sky underwent a dramatic change, displaying a purple glow, and the swords of Sheng Huan Xiuqian and Huang Jihao began to tremble. Both looked at their swords in horror. What's happening? Has someone else comprehended the ancient sword Dao? Huang Jihao looked at Sheng Huan Xiuqian in alarm. You don't think it's…

Sheng Huan Xiuqian said in denial, Absolutely impossible. To comprehend the ancient sword Dao once in a lifetime is already reaching the heavens. How could he? But that direction, it seems to be where Great Swallow is. Elsewhere, on the peak of a towering mountain, a man in a black robe was meditating. Surrounded by a vast sea of clouds, he suddenly opened his eyes as the swords on his left and right vibrated intensely. The man in the black robe frowned and murmured, Someone else has had an insight into the ancient sword intent. Strange. Why can't I deduce

any further? He took out a talisman paper, placed it on the ground in front of him, and began to cast a spell. After a few moments, characters gradually appeared on the talisman, eventually forming two bold characters. Reincarnation. What does this mean? Does reincarnation refer to the laws of heaven and earth? Or to a cultivator? The Jade Pure sect was also enveloped in a purple glow. From the elders to the outer sect disciples, all their swords trembled, causing everyone to nervously gather together for discussion. The sky has changed color. What's happening? Could a great being have

emerged? Sect leader. This is a rare phenomenon. All swords resonating. It must signify a great terror. Li Qingzi tried to calm everyone. Stay calm. Haven't we experienced all swords resonating before? It will be alright this time too. Li Qingzi was very frustrated. Why has the Jade Pure sect faced so many disasters and difficulties during my tenure as sect leader? I wonder if Elder Han has been disturbed. If he leaves because of this, the Jade Pure sect might never find another pillar like him. At the same time, within the innate cave dwelling, a small sword pattern

emerged between Han Zhu's eyebrows, faintly visible. Han Zhu was comprehending sword intent, a type of sword intent unique to him. Suddenly, his consciousness found itself in an endlessly flowing river of sword paths. Han Zhu's consciousness awakened within this river. And ahead, silhouettes illuminated by sword light appeared, blurry and indistinct. These figures moved slowly, and Han Zhu passed them one by one, entering a profound state. What is this place? I was clearly in my cave dwelling a moment ago. How did I end up here? Han Zhu's spiritual sense entered the river of sword paths, advancing step

by step, surpassing sword cultivators moving along the sword path. At this moment, the system notified Han Zhu. System notification. This is the river of sword paths advancing within it can temper the will of the sword path. The higher one's comprehension of the sword path, the further one can go. Han Zhu went further and further, with no one catching up from behind, and no figures appearing in front of the light. Han Zhu speculated that those walking in front of him must have a higher mastery of the sword path. There are quite a few people. Thankfully, I

don't go out much. Otherwise, facing these people would likely result in defeat. I can't fall behind. I must catch up with them first. Suddenly, a mysterious and terrifying sword intent burst forth, sweeping towards Han Zhu, giving him a momentary fear of facing death. A towering figure suddenly appeared ahead, shouting angrily, mortals wishing to touch the realm of immortals. You are not worthy. Retreat. Before the words fell, the figure with angry eyes shouted loudly, and in an instant, countless sword intents shone with golden light, attacking Han Zhu before he could react. The river of sword paths

shattered, and Han Zhu's spiritual sense was pierced by the sky-filled sword intent. Finally, Han Zhu woke up as if from a dream, his consciousness returning to his body. He gasped for air, his face covered in sweat, recalling the encounter. Who was that person? Just with sword intent, he could harm me from afar. Fortunately, he had no intent to kill, or my primordial spirit might have been destroyed. At this moment, the system delivered another notification, Congratulations on comprehending the Taiyi Grade Sword Intent, named Reincarnation Sword Intent. As this is your first time comprehending Taiyi Grade Sword

Intent, you receive a spiritual treasure. Congratulations on obtaining the Taiyi Grade 6th Rank Spiritual Treasure, Meditation Cushion. Meditation Cushion, Taiyi Grade 6th Rank Spiritual Treasure, can enhance cultivation speed and calm the mind, stabilizing against inner demons. Han Zhu was somewhat shocked. Taiyi Grade? Could this be a level that transcends the moral realm? The immoral realm? Could it be the world after ascension? So, the people on the river of sword paths just now, were they all great vehicle ascenders? That makes sense. Their cultivation levels are high, so their sword intent would naturally not be weak. Han

Zhu summoned a small sword with his palm. In the future, if someone challenges me, I'll specifically use this Reincarnation Sword Intent to target and kill them, and it won't cause too much of a commotion. The purple glow in the sky began to fade, and the jade-pure sect returned to tranquility once more. Bu Chang'en was still diligently practicing his heartless sword technique. Although his talent was not high, his diligence made up for it. This time, he finally managed to produce sword energy, cutting off the head of a wooden dummy. Bu Chang'en stared at the sword in

his hand, knowing that the emergence of sword energy meant that his emotional attachments were about to be severed. Excited, he ran to Han Zhu. Master, I finally have sword energy. In the northern region's monster-taming demon sect, hundreds of disciples were engaged in ascetic cultivation, hoping to comprehend the ancient divine abilities sooner. Su Qi was among them, looking troubled. Master, why haven't you made a move? If you don't act soon, I'll be forced to practice demonic techniques. He didn't want to practice the demonic techniques of the monster-taming demon sect. He wanted to be a cultivator of

the righteous path. Just then, a figure appeared in the sect's training ground, shouting, Stop training. Elder Xiao has passed away. All disciples must immediately go to pay respects. This announcement caused a stir among everyone. How is that possible? Wasn't Elder Xiao full of vitality just yesterday? Maybe it was a brief resurgence of energy. I was still listening to his teachings this morning. I can't believe he's gone so suddenly. Su Qi followed the crowd, secretly excited. Could it be that Master has started to make a move? Inside the monster-taming demon sect's ancestral hall, Elder Xiao's body

lay at the center, with other elders casting spells to maintain his weak soul. Sect leader Tu Quan, with a somber expression, said, Elder Xiao, we have done our best. This secret technique can only sustain the soul for a short period. You suddenly passed away today. Do you have any last words? Xiao was in a state of confusion. To be honest, I feel very suffocated. I don't even know how I died. Tu Quan said, From all indications, your death seemed to be of natural causes. But the second elder deduced that you died from a curse. Xiao

fell into despair again. No wonder I've been so unlucky. It turns out it was a curse. Facing inner demons during cultivation, my cultivation level has not increased but regressed. Do you know who might be responsible? We will avenge you. Xiao said, It's hard to say, as I had killed all my enemies, leaving no troubles behind. Wait, could it be him? Xiao thought of Han Ju's peerless face. And for some reason, he had a strong feeling that ever since Han Ju thwarted his plan, misfortunes had piled up, and he frequently encountered inner demons during cultivation. It

must be him. The more Xiao thought about it, the more agitated he became. Tu Quan urged him to calm down. Otherwise, his soul would dissipate even faster. Helplessly, Xiao's soul began to dissipate. He weakly said, Brother, my brothers, my last words. Never go to Great Swallow, and never provoke the jade-pure sect of Great Swallow. Before he could finish, his soul completely disappeared like smoke. Elder Brother Xiao, Brother, you haven't left the summoning incantation for that demon pet. Brother, where did you hide your treasures? The crowd was shocked, looking up at the sky as a strong

being vanished so mysteriously. Tu Quan frowned and asked the others, Great Swallow, what place is that? Everyone looked at each other. Don't know. Have no idea. Sect leader, how about we send someone to investigate? Tu Quan shook his head. No, it's too dangerous. Didn't you hear what the brothers said at the end? We can't even afford to provoke them. How formidable must that be? Han Ju also received another system notification. Your enemy Xiao has died. Damn. Leisure True Person. Dian Su Demon King. I wonder how long you two can last under the Book of Misfortune.

Meanwhile, in the icy, snowy demon lair, howls echoed continuously. Dian Su Demon King was frantically pounding the walls, tormented by the curse of the Book of Misfortune, seeking death but unable to achieve it. Dian Su Demon King didn't understand why. Despite swearing not to attack Great Swallow anymore, he still had to suffer like this. Yang Tiandong was also curious about who Dian Su Demon King had offended to be cursed out of the blue. Tears welled up in Dian Su Demon King's eyes as he grabbed Yang Tiandong. Tell me. What should I do? Yang Tiandong's eyes

darted around as he said. Adopt a father? Is it possible? The immortals want to see your concrete actions. Concrete? Explain. Yang Tiandong continued. For instance, how about you try visiting a human sect to make friends? Perhaps the immortals will change their view of you. Dian Su Demon King's eyes lit up. Visit in person? Are you joking? With so many sects in Great Swallow, I'm supposed to visit each one and smile at those cultivators? Not at all. You just need to pick any sect to visit as a gesture. To show your stance. I see. You mentioned

before. In which sect is that Hanju? The Jade Pure sect. Then let's set off tomorrow. No. Today. Yang Tiandong panicked internally. Oh no. I haven't informed master yet. Adopt a father? Wait. Humans place great importance on first impressions. You need to transform your appearance. If handled well, making friends would be halfway there. Humans are so troublesome. I don't want to. Are you sure this will work halfway? Before long, Yang Tiandong had arranged a very down-to-earth outfit for the Demon King, and the two demons set off for the Jade Pure sect. A few days later, Dian

Su Demon King and Yang Tiandong arrived outside the gate of the Jade Pure sect. Seeing no one to welcome them, Dian Su Demon King was quite displeased. Where is the sect leader of the Jade Pure sect? Come out and meet me. Yang Tiandong advised, Adopt a father. Making friends isn't done this way. At this moment, Hanju, inside the innate cave dwelling, also received a system notification about the Demon King's arrival. Hanju's first reaction was to conduct a simulation trial. Dian Su Demon King. Why has he come? Act first. Ask questions later. After saying this, Hanju

initiated the trial. Dian Su Demon King was strong, and it took Hanju ten seconds to fight him the first time. In subsequent trials, he directly used the Primordial Judgment Sword with Reincarnation Sword intent and the Abundant Spiritual Power to execute the Three Pure Worlds Extermination Sword technique. After multiple attempts, Hanju was finally able to instantly defeat Dian Su Demon King. Next, let's see what this Demon King wants to do. By now, Li Qingzi had already led Dian Su Demon King and Yang Tiandong to the base of the Ascetic Immortal Mountain, cursing at Yang Tiandong, Elder

Han. It's an emergency. Hasn't the Jade Pure sect suffered enough over the years? The incident with the Nineteen Sects was bad enough, and now Yang Tiandong has brought someone even more significant. You traitor. If it weren't for you being Elder Han's disciple, I would slap you to death. Then, a cold voice came. I wonder what business Dian Su Demon King has with our Jade Pure sect. The three of them were startled and looked up to see that the newcomer was Hanju. Yang Tiandong exclaimed with joy, It's master. This time, Hanju's demeanor was entirely different, giving

Yang Tiandong a sense of boldness. Li Qingzi, also admired silently, Elder Han truly possesses vast divine abilities to have anticipated Dian Su Demon King's visit to the Jade Pure sect. Worthy of being Elder Han, regardless of whether we can win or not, this aura alone is victorious. Dian Su Demon King felt the pressure emanating from Hanju, and his sensitivity to battle aura as a demon allowed him to sense that Hanju had just been in combat. Is it an illusion? He clearly just fought, killing many strong beings, with even Union Realm blood energy remaining. The murderous

aura is too intense. Impossible. Where would Great Swallow find so many Union Realm adversaries? But his sword intent indeed poses a danger to me. More importantly, it inexplicably feels familiar, yet we've never crossed swords. Are you here to cause trouble? Hanju said coldly again. Dian Su Demon King immediately softened. Not at all. I've heard of Elder Han's renowned beauty, and have always wanted to share a drink and converse with Elder Han. What did you say? Dian Su Demon King felt the surge of pressure coming at him again. Dian Su Demon King quickly corrected himself. Ah,

no. I mean, I wish to share a drink with Li's sect leader by Elder Han's side, and become brothers. Please grant me this honor, Elder Han. Yang Tiandong also hurriedly conveyed to Dian Su Demon King's recent experiences in secret. Dian Su Demon King thought he was cursed by immortals and wanted to make amends with the Jade Pure sect to show his sincerity to the immortals. Upon hearing this, Hanju almost laughed out loud. Ah. So. It turns out this Demon King truly came seeking peace. Knowing the Demon King's intentions, Hanju's attitude also changed. Since that's the

case, then you should go ahead and befriend each other. Seeing that Hanju's hostility had vanished, Dian Su Demon King quickly took Li Qingzi down the mountain. Thank you, immortal. Thus, after thousands of years, the Great Swallow's demon race had their first head-to-head meeting with the human race. The news that the Jade Pure sect of Great Swallow formally signed an agreement to establish relations with the demon race shocked the cultivation world of Great Swallow, elevating the status of the Jade Pure sect to an unprecedented new height. On the other side, Hanju decided he would no longer

curse Dian Su Demon King unless he caused trouble again. Dian Su Demon King converted, Xiao'e dead, and no daily tasks remaining. Hanju, left only with cultivation, felt both at ease and a bit bored. Suddenly, the system sent a notification. Enlightenment Eccentric has developed hatred towards you. Current hatred level is four stars. Who is this? You're bringing this on yourself. At this moment, he was making his move on Hanju's wife, Xing Hongxian, in an ancient secret realm. Previously, Xing Hongxian and this grey-robed elder had been cultivating in the secret realm without bothering each other. But today,

the elder acted out of character. The elder approached Xing Hongxian and said, I've been trying to comprehend this for so long without any success. Yet you, a young girl, have managed to learn the divine technique from the wall. Xing Hongxian replied, The technique belongs to no one. It goes to those who are fated to learn it. Besides, I didn't destroy the scripture. You can continue to study it. But that divine technique was left by the ancestors of my sect. You, young girl, are fated with our sect. Come back with me to the formless sect. This

grey-robed elder was Enlightenment Eccentric. Xing Hongxian wanted to refuse politely, so she made an excuse. Senior, I already have a master, and my cultivation partner is nearby. This secret realm connects to many places. If I'm gone too long, he will come looking for me. Enlightenment Eccentric, with his profound cultivation, calculated and found that Xing Hongxian had no predestined marriage partner. Having a master is inconsequential. But as for a cultivation partner, trying to threaten me? Don't deceive me. You have no predestined partner in this life. The reason the elder wanted to capture Xing Hongxian was that

her divine technique had matured, making her very suitable to be his disciple's wife and a human cauldron. In the midst of their conversation, Xing Hongxian pulled out a magical treasure and swung her sword at Enlightenment Eccentric. But he easily dodged it. Having no other choice, Xing Hongxian resorted to threatening with her own life. If the senior continues to press this matter, I will end my life here. And I advise you to take back that foolish statement about me having no predestined partner. Seeing that the young lady was unwilling to comply, the elder prepared to use

magic to capture her. If you refuse to obey, then don't blame me for being impolite. Suddenly, several beams of purple light emerged from the ground and wrapped around Xing Hongxian, moving too quickly for her to dodge and instantly binding her limbs. Several purple vines tightly bound Xing Hongxian, creating a very shameful scene. Just then, someone from the Formless Sect reported. Sect Master, something terrible has happened. Dong Huanxian has gone into demonic cultivation, and his life is in danger. You must return immediately. Reluctantly, the elder had to retract his magic. What? Damn, why now? This is

not the time for problems to arise. I'll just let this woman cultivate for a while longer. This way, she'll taste even better later on. Reluctantly letting go of Xing Hongxian, Enlightenment Eccentric walked out of the cave, warning her that she had ten years to consider. If she voluntarily joined the Formless Sect after ten years, all would be well. If not, he would destroy both her and Han Zhu. Everything that had just happened was seen by Han Zhu through his puppet, so you're here to poach my wall. Since that's the case, don't blame me for not

being polite. Han Zhu checked the interpersonal relationship to see Enlightenment Eccentric's information. Enlightenment Eccentric, seventh layer of the Union Realm. Sect Master of the Formless Sect, a high-level cultivator. Hatred, because you are the husband of the disciple he has his eyes on. He holds a grudge against you and will soon act against you to eliminate future troubles. Current hatred level is four stars. Enlightenment Eccentric, we've officially got a feud now. Han Zhu pulled out the Book of Misfortune and wrote down the old monster's name, planning to use the breakthrough moment to curse him with Thunder

Tribulation for four days and four nights. The Tribulation of the Union Realm is extremely terrifying, with thousands of thunderstorms covering the sky above the ascetic Immortal Mountain. The elders of the Jade Pure Sect gather together, feeling the world-ending storm of the Thunder Tribulation. Did Godslaying Elder break through again? We're already far enough away, yet the power of the Thunder Tribulation still reaches here. Hearing the discussions of the elders, Li Qingzi stood tall and proud, as if he was the one being praised. Why bother with such talk? You just need to know that you can always

trust in the strength of the Godslaying Elder. Buyu Gang looked complexly towards the apocalyptic scene in the distance, his eyes filled with reverence. I've been cultivating in the manner of the Godslaying Elder, yet why is the gap between us growing? It must be a difference in talent. Perhaps one day, he will ascend to immortality. Elsewhere, on another barren wasteland, another Thunder Tribulation had just ended. A man, shirtless and severely injured from the Tribulation, succeeded in crossing it. Damn Thunder Tribulation. It's finally over. The power of Heavenly Thunder still cannot be countered by human strength. With

my physical body, to withstand a strike of Heavenly Thunder was indeed pushing it. This person was Zhou Fan. Then, two figures appeared in front of Zhou Fan. How does it feel to be reborn? It cost me quite a few treasures to reshape your body. See if you dare to be reckless again next time. The speaker was Mafuchu, with a woman standing behind him. Zhou Fan addressed this person as a senior. Thank you, senior, for reshaping my body. Zhou was willing to solve any problems for the senior. The woman calmly said, This junior brother of yours

had a predestined relationship with me in his past life. Having saved me once, I'm merely repaying the favor. Past life? Zhou Fan and Mafuchu were both curious. It's all thanks to your fortune from a previous life. Your own luck is strong. I merely went along with the flow. Alright, this matter is concluded. I'll be leaving. With that, she turned to leave. Mafuchu quickly asked, Senior, may I know your esteemed name? The woman in purple leaped up, clouds appearing beneath her feet, and left a message. My surname is Xian. Saying so, she flew towards the horizon,

like an immortal. Zhou Fan asked Mafuchu, Which great figure in the cultivation world has the surname Xian? Mafuchu frowned and thought carefully. You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask? Meanwhile, after enduring the Thunder Tribulation for ten days and nights, Han Zhu finally broke through to the Union Realm, and he was beyond excited. In a great mood, Han Zhu casually opened the interpersonal relationship list to see what was happening. Eh? Zhou Fan died and came back to life? That's outrageous. This guy must be the protagonist. At this time, the system also provided a notification.

You have successfully broken through to the Union Realm. You have the following choices. 1. Immediately make your presence known to the world, showcasing your strength, and receive one spiritual treasure and a divine ability inheritance. 2. Continue to cultivate in seclusion, aiming to be the strongest under the heavens, and receive precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Han Zhu still chose the second option. After choosing to continue cultivating in seclusion, the system rewarded him with another heavenly material and earthly treasure, Earth Immortal Gourd Seeds. Earth Immortal Gourd Seeds bloom once in a thousand years, bear fruit once

in ten thousand years, edible, can be used to refine magical treasures. If the fruit is allowed to mature over time, it can transform into a magical treasure or even birth living beings. Han Zhu checked his attribute panel and found his lifespan had surged to 27,900 years. Truly worthy of the Six Realms of Reincarnation technique. The higher the realm, the more my lifespan increases. If I cultivate to the Great Vehicle Realm, how long would my lifespan be? Several days later, Xing Hongxian returned and immediately went to see Han Zhu. To this day, Chick still couldn't understand

why this woman always came to see his master. Bu Chang'an, who had endured countless emotional trials, was well-versed in the ways of men and women and told Chick to mind his own business. When it came to women, Bu Chang'an couldn't help but think of Xiao Mei, whom he had pined over for 20 years, and he unwittingly shared his story. Before I came here, I had been her loyal follower for nearly 20 years. Xiao Mei's cultivation was mediocre, but she was gentle, well-mannered, and had many suitors. I was just one of them, but I knew that

haste wouldn't bring success. So I silently protected her, believing that loving her meant making her life happier. Following the principle of loving everything about her, I often invited her boyfriends to eat leeks, pineapples, and oysters, resulting in many of them calling me brother and sharing their experiences with her, encouraging me to keep going. I appreciated their kindness, but I still hoped she would accept me. Sometimes she came to me with her troubles, which showed she remembered my kindness. It was this concern that made me unable to leave her, just accompanying her for abortions seven or

eight times, with me covering all the costs. Those were just minor setbacks, and she quickly found new love. Although it wasn't me, I got used to it because she likes to save the best for last, so I will have the last laugh. After so many years, all I wanted was to make her understand one thing. If you don't love this loyal follower of yours, you're just choosing to be with a loser. Bu Chang'en became more agitated as he spoke, leaving Chick at a loss for words. Bu Chang'en asked Chick, Brother Chick, why does it work

for the master to have women come to him without even stepping outside, but not for me? Chick replied, Well, I think it's a matter of self-awareness. After being bullied by enlightenment eccentric in the secret realm, Xing Hongxian finally returned to ascetic immortal mountain. Standing in front of Han Ju, Xing Hongxian recounted her ordeal with enlightenment eccentric, crying angrily, Husband, that's what happened. Enlightenment eccentric went too far. Han Ju comforted her, As long as you're okay, that's what matters. He'll receive divine retribution sooner or later. But some of what he said is true. The formless sect's

overall strength is far beyond the jade pure sects, and staying in the jade pure sect might slow your progress. The formless sect could offer you a broader view of the world, and if you're willing to go, you might even find a fortuitous encounter. Xing Hongxian shyly hugged Han Ju's puppet doll and said, How could I possibly? Once I've chosen my husband, I want to be with him for life. Han Ju, ever the straightforward man, continued to urge Xing Hongxian to think it over, But, you're not my subordinate. You should still consider what's best for yourself.

To which Xing Hongxian suddenly embraced Han Ju's face, But I like it this way. My husband will surely become an immortal, and I'm waiting to ascend with him. Husband, Miss Xing, please, I need to upgrade your heavenly puppet. Let's talk about that later. Saying this, Xing Hongxian began to take action, Her strength leaving Han Ju with no chance to resist. This tussle lasted for days, Leaving Chick and Buchang and outside worrying if their master could withstand it. Could the master be alright? He hasn't come out in a long time. Should we buy some oysters for

the master? In the midst of a desert with a blood-red sunset, Xiu Fan and Mafuchu sat around a campfire, skewering meat and boasting, Brother, I'll help you with your revenge first. After that, I plan to conquer the world, to make a name for myself. I want to be the strongest under the heavens. Xiu Fan said proudly, His tone full of confidence. Mafuchu knew Xiu Fan's motivation was also because of a woman. It was yet another story of an unrequited lover, Though Mafuchu refrained from pointing it out directly. Xiu Fan boasted, Now that I'm in the

nascent soul stage, Having even defeated spirit transformation cultivators across levels, Who among the younger generation can be stronger than me? I want to prove to her that only I am worthy of her. The younger generation, Ha, Mafuchu suddenly thought of someone. Are you talking about Han Ju? Impossible. Cultivation is about constantly gaining experience And seeking opportunities in the world. Look at me. After gaining experience, my cultivation has soared. Those who were my enemies are still cultivating ascetically, Stuck at their old realms. We're the perfect examples. But Brother Han has a high talent. Now, defeating him

would require at least the strength of the spirit transformation realm, Said Mafuchu. Xiu Fan replied, No problem, but you've reminded me. If I have a chance to return to the Jade Pure sect, I should spar with Han Ju, To make him realize that ascetic cultivation has no future. Then, taking him along, We three can explore the world together, Making a great name for ourselves. Wouldn't that be wonderful? Oh no. Why do I have a bad feeling about this? The Formless Sect, A cultivation sect with nearly 10,000 years of heritage, Boasts profound foundations. Its gate is

like a fairyland, With continuous mountains and flowing waterfalls. At the base of a waterfall, A figure sits by the lake, Enduring the terrifying impact of the waterfall. Enlightenment Eccentric, Standing in the distance, Looks on with satisfaction. This person is named Dong Huang Xian, A disciple of Enlightenment Eccentric. Enlightenment Eccentric lamented, What a pity. That woman never fell for it. Otherwise, with her as a cauldron, Your cultivation would have been even stronger. At that moment, Enlightenment Eccentric's energy and blood Suddenly became chaotic, And his primordial spirit shook. A surge of reverse blood rushed up his throat,

Making him dizzy and causing him to fall over. Ah, someone is cursing me again. Dong Huang Xian asked anxiously, Master, you've been like this for a while now. Do you know who is responsible? I'll go and kill them for you. Enlightenment Eccentric gritted his teeth and cursed, I don't know. I can't deduce it either. But, you don't need to worry about this. The curse isn't strong. I can withstand it. Focus on your cultivation, And strive to master divine ability as soon as possible. Enlightenment Eccentric wondered who could make him, A seventh-layer union realm cultivator. So

miserable. Damn it. Once my disciple has achieved success in his cultivation, I'll make you pay. While Enlightenment Eccentric was cursing on one side, Han Zhu sneezed on the other. Ah, achoo, who's cursing me? At that time, Han Zhu was digging a hole in the ground, Planning to plant the earth immoral gourd seeds. Han Zhu instructed Bu Chang'an to take good care of it. Bu Chang'an exclaimed, Master has so many treasures. Did our ancestors include any notable figures? Han Zhu smiled mysteriously. Guess. Joking. I don't even know the origins of these techniques, Divine abilities, And treasures

myself. While they were talking, Li Chingzhi's voice came from behind. Elder Han, Long time no see. You have more treasures on your mountain. Li Chingzhi greeted warmly. Hey, Elder Han, Shall we go inside to talk? Han Zhu responded calmly. Let's hear it. Which demon king is causing trouble this time? Or which sect has caught fire? Li Chingzhi blushed and hurriedly explained, None of those. It's great news. The Jade Pure Sect recently discovered the ruins of an ancient sect. According to the scouts, It's rich in resources, Including techniques, Heavenly materials, Earthly treasures, And even magical treasures.

Han Zhu asked in confusion, Has this news spread? If such an opportunity becomes widely known, It might lead to a scramble among cultivators across the world. Li Chingzhi stated, Of course not. This is the Jade Pure Sect's secret. Besides, Although it's been over a hundred years, And the younger cultivators today may not have heard of godslaying elders' name, The higher-ups of various sects still remember your heroic deeds. Even if they knew, They wouldn't dare to obstruct the good fortune of the Jade Pure Sect. Knowing Li Chingzhi's habit of not visiting without a reason, Han Zhu

asked, So what do you want from me? Li Chingzhi said with anticipation, Elder Han, Would you like to go take a look? Elder Guan has already taken five elders and one hundred core disciples to guard the site. The teleportation formation is almost ready. Han Zhu, With a righteous tone, Said, In my opinion, Although the Jade Pure Sect has been developing steadily over the years, The disciples lack experience. Flowers grown in a greenhouse cannot withstand the storm. You, as the sect leader, must be aware of this. This is a good opportunity to train the disciples, To

foster their independence, And improve the overall quality of the Jade Pure Sect's disciples. And I shall stay behind to protect the Jade Pure Sect. Li Chingzhi had no choice but to agree. That does make sense. But it feels a bit odd coming from you. Han Zhu cautioned Li Chingzhi, Be careful. Such ancient sites might have restrictions. Li Chingzhi gratefully responded, I understand. If we find any heavenly materials and earthly treasures that can enhance spiritual energy, I'll have them sent over. Thank you, sect leader. As the two walked out of the cave dwelling, Li Chingzhi suddenly

stopped. Li Chingzhi pointed at the Fusang tree ahead. I just wanted to ask, Is it normal for this tree to be shaking like that? The Fusang tree's branches were entwined and wildly twisting as if a vine was whipping through the air. Chick and Buchangan were also stunned. The Fusang tree? No. Why is it shaking during the day too? This better not be a problem. The master will definitely blame me. Han Zhu quickly asked the two what was happening. What's going on? Master, we really didn't do anything. The tree just started freaking out on its own.

Buchangan said, Master, there's something wrong with this Fusang tree. It would also move on its own at night. Han Zhu was surprised. Moving on its own? Has it become sentient? Han Zhu immediately opened his spiritual sense to observe. No primordial spirit? If it had become sentient, it should have developed intelligence and would have a primordial spirit. Could it be? The Fusang tree is summoning something? The Fusang tree grows for 10,000 years, and only then will it attract the golden crow. But it hasn't been 10,000 years yet. Let's see if there's any major event happening in

the current world. Han Zhu opened the system's interpersonal relationship panel, which showed the usual statuses. It seems there's no major change in the cultivation world. What could the Fusang tree be summoning? Meanwhile, beneath another sea of clouds, there was a vast lake like a mirror, surrounded by mountains on all sides. Picturesque. Xianqing Jun was sitting in a pavilion having tea with a woman. The very same powerhouse who had saved Zhou Fan. She asked in a mild tone, Sister, aren't you ascending yet? Xianqing Jun, without even opening her eyes, said, It's not time yet. How is

the plan going? The woman answered, Don't get me started. Zhou Fan is completely different from his past life. So impetuous. Thankfully, they've completely believed in me over there. Xianqing Jun smiled. Good. He is a key part of the plan. Make sure he doesn't die again. The woman asked Xianqing Jun, I really don't understand you. After ascending, you could have transformed and made a name for yourself in the immortal realms with your strength. What are you waiting for? Xianqing Jun jokingly replied, Waiting for my cultivation partner. The woman spat out her tea in surprise. Kidding. You

scared me. Being in love means digging wild vegetables for 20 years. Xianqing Jun reminisced, a slight smile on her lips. Originally, I went to the Jade Pure Sect just to see Zhou Fan. Unexpectedly, I met a boy who caught my eye. This boy was a hardworking cultivator. After all these years, he might have reached the spirit transformation. The woman asked in surprise, His talent is even greater than Zhou Fan's? Xianqing Jun casually answered, Of course. Someday, I'll take you to see him. The woman was skeptical. You're not lying to me, right? Suddenly, a streak of

golden light flew across the sky. Coincidentally, Yang Tiandong and Dian Su Demon King also witnessed this rare sight. Yang Tiandong exclaimed, Adoptive father, what is that? Dian Su Demon King, clearly recognizing what it was, was too scared to speak. This is... The offspring of the vermilion bird. A disaster. Xu Dou. This beast, resembling a dog, could spew fire and devour flames. Wherever it went, it brought annihilation and disasters, thus regarded by the world as a harbinger of fire calamities. An extremely ominous symbol. At this time, the disciples of the Jade Pure Sect were unaware of

the beast's approach, only feeling the evening temperature rising and witnessing the bizarre sight of the sun and fierce sun coexisting in the distance. The Jade Pure Sect was in an uproar, with more and more disciples taking to the skies on their swords to confront it, leading the charge to Li Qingzi and the elders. The temperature, akin to the blazing sun, was getting closer. If it approached the Jade Pure Sect, the sect could face the risk of annihilation. Li Qingzi immediately cast spells to activate the sect's protective formation. Each elder took their positions, starting the cast

spells. In a moment, the protective formation was activated, enveloping the entire Jade Pure Sect. Although the sect's protective formation could withstand attacks from cultivators, Han Zhu believed that the formation could not block the physical high temperatures. At the same time, a prompt appeared before Han Zhu. The divine beast Zhu Dou is attacking, intending to occupy the Fusang Tree. Zhu Dou, at the fifth layer of the Yunyan Realm, is a disaster beast, offspring of the vermilion bird, innately carries misfortune. Its body ablaze with the fire of the sun, capable of destroying heaven and earth. Han Zhu

tensed. It's because of the Fusang Tree? Damn. It's too late to simulate a battle against Zhu Dou. Qiq flew to Han Zhu's side, shouting nervously, Master, I suddenly feel restless inside. What's happening? Buchenan also said, I inexplicably feel panicked too. Han Zhu calmly stated, it's just the effect of bloodlines. I'll be right back. After saying this, Han Zhu swiftly flew off on his sword, scaring Qiq and Buchenan into thinking Han Zhu was abandoning them. Master, don't leave us behind. The terrifying high temperature from Zhu Dou ignited the forests on the ground, spreading towards the Jade

Pure Sect at an exaggerated speed. At this moment, all disciples were terrified, but Li Qingzi, as the sect leader, remained resolute, prepared to fight to the death with the elders. Stop! Han Zhu halted everyone. He advised Li Qingzi not to confront it head on, and to quickly lead the Jade Pure Sect disciples to safety. Seeing the godslaying elders stepping forward, the elders realized how serious the situation was. Ah, Elder Han, I thought you had fled. Han Zhu seriously responded, honestly, I'd like to run too, but this situation arose because of me, and I can't let

the people of the Jade Pure Sect bear the consequences for me. Han Zhu took out the primordial judgment sword, activating all of his spiritual treasures. Go now. I'll buy you time. Li Qingzi immediately commanded the elders to retreat and disperse the disciples back to their peaks. Understood. We're retreating now. Quickly. We can't waste the opportunity Elder Han is giving us. Soon, Zhu Dou arrived within the Jade Pure Sect's vicinity, drawn irresistibly to the Fusang tree's call. It paused upon seeing Han Zhu, an obstacle. Get out of the way. It accelerated towards Han Zhu, spewing flames,

as if intending to melt Han Zhu in an instant. Han Zhu's eyes flashed with a murderous intent, and he fiercely unleashed the heaven-exterminating demon god sword energy. A black sword energy collided with the flames, shaking the entire area of the Jade Pure Sect. Zhu Dou was somewhat surprised by the failure of its attack. There's actually someone here who can withstand one of my strikes. Han Zhu also silently marveled. Despite being at the fifth layer of the Union Realm, it's even more difficult to deal with an Enlightenment eccentric. This must be the extraordinary aspect of divine

beasts. In an instant, the sky darkened, and divine light began to condense in Zhu Dou's mouth. This is bad. It's getting serious. A blaze that seemed to burn the heavens rushed towards Han Zhu at high speed. Han Zhu dodged with a flicker, and the flame exploded on the ground, leveling the area outside the Jade Pure Sect's main gate, dodging this attack. Another one came swiftly, to prevent the attack from affecting the Jade Pure Sect. Han Zhu used evasive maneuvers to gradually lead Zhu Dou away, but some attacks still landed within the sect. Li Qingzi immediately

directed all disciples to head towards the Water Spirit Pool, where a teleportation formation had already been opened. Han Zhu knew they couldn't continue like this, as Zhu Dou's relentless attacks left no openings to exploit. The two continued to clash, and in a careless moment, Han Zhu allowed Zhu Dou to close in. Damn. It can teleport? The beast's movement was incredibly agile, and although Han Zhu wasn't weak, a strike with the heaven-punishing Demon Godsword only managed to scratch Zhu Dou's skin, not gaining any advantage. This Zhu Dou is too tough. Even the heaven-punishing Demon Godsword can

only scratch its skin. Only that ultimate move is left, but there's no time to gather strength. Suddenly, Zhu Dou erupted with its full spiritual power, like a scion evolving, seemingly readying its ultimate attack. Han Zhu calmed down, looking at the situation. Is it gathering energy for a major move? That's coincidental. Han Zhu and Zhu Dou unleashed their ultimate moves simultaneously. The burst of intense light made the heavens and earth lose their color. Han Zhu had given it his all, and Zhu Dou had also exhausted his spiritual power. Both were engulfed in the dazzling explosion, with

the outcome unknown. On the other side, Li Qingzi was about to organize the disciples to retreat orderly, but was stopped by the Supreme Elder. People were puzzled, but the Supreme Elder let everyone feel the temperature, asking if it had dropped significantly. Li Qingzi then realized that the temperature was gradually returning to normal. It's Elder Han. He saved us once again. In the ultimate confrontation just now, Han Zhu had slain Zhu Dou with a strike of the Three Pure Worlds Extermination, and it was fortunate that his movement was slightly faster. A second slower would have been

fatal. At this moment, the system sent a prompt. For the first time slaughtering a divine beast, you have obtained a Swordsmanship Divine Ability Inheritance. Congratulations on obtaining the Divine Ability. Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Boundary Breaking Finger. A Swordsmanship Divine Ability. Shooting out sword energy with a finger. Killing enemies from thousands of miles away. The strength and range of the sword energy depend on the user's cultivation. Suddenly, the system popped up another prompt. The Divine Beast Vermillion Bird harbors hatred towards you, with a current hatred level of 5 stars. The Vermillion Bird. A Taiyi-level Earth

Immortal in the mid-stage. An innate divine beast with strong luck. Because you have slain its child, it harbors deep hatred towards you and will seek revenge upon your ascension. Taiyi-level Earth Immortal in the mid-stage. Earth Immortal. I'm doomed. Han Zhu looked at the prompt, his heart filled with bitterness. What's wrong with you divine beasts? Why blame me when you can't watch your own children? But why seek revenge after my ascension? Could it be that the Vermillion Bird cannot descend to the mortal world? It seems that if I want to ascend in the future, I must

be stronger than the Vermillion Bird. Otherwise, it's too dangerous. And what about all these remains of Zhu Dou scattered around? Leaving them here could easily attract the hatred of all sorts of deities. At this moment, Li Qingzi came running anxiously to a scattered immortal mountain and nervously asked, What exactly was that sun-like demon just now? Han Zhu dared not directly say it was a divine beast, as killing a divine beast could lead to gossip. He misled Li Qingzi by saying, It was a powerful demon beast, possibly someone Nine Cauldrons Sage had offended in the past,

sending their dog to seek revenge. Li Qingzi had no choice but to leave it at that, stating he would send disciples to clean up the aftermath. Han Zhu said, My chick is having a meal right now, so there's no need to bother with the cleanup. The appearance of the beast sweeping through Great Swallow terrified everyone, yet it vanished in a corner of Great Swallow, leaving an unsolved mystery to the world. The last place where the beast disappeared was within the influence of the Jade Pure Sect, making the sect the center of attention for a while.

Various sects tried every means to befriend the Jade Pure Sect, fearing being outpaced by others. Only Dian Su Demon King knew it was the divine beast Zhu Dou that had fallen at the Jade Pure Sect. Fortunately, we had established relations early on. It's best not to provoke them. Thus, the Jade Pure Sect remained peaceful for a few more years. One day, Li Qingzi came to visit Han Zhu. Before Li Qingzi could speak, Han Zhu preempted, Don't come to me with opportunities anymore. I'm not going. Li Qingzi coughed awkwardly and said, This time it's not good

news. The Blood Flame, Heavenly Gate of Great Wei, and the Formless Sect of the Ancient Origin Province have gone to war. They bypassed both Great Swallow and Western Abyss Province. And though it's unclear why, it's very likely that Great Swallow could be implicated. Han Zhu was speechless. They're starting a war from so far away. Must be really bored. It turned out, both sects had potential grievances with Han Zhu. It was said that Dong Huangxian of the Formless Sect had killed the son of the Blood Flame, Heavenly Gate's sect master. With the Blood Flame, Heavenly Gate's

momentum, they couldn't tolerate it and directly started a war. It's said that a guest elder of the Union Realm has already led the charge against the Formless Sect. Han Zhu was nonchalant. Let them fight it out amongst themselves, as long as they don't threaten our Jade Pure Sect. Li Qingzi's tone carried a hint of envy. Union Realm, ah. When will the Jade Pure Sect have a Union Realm powerhouse? Han Zhu was speechless, thinking to himself, Who are you hinting at? Li Qingzi then brought up the ancient sect ruins discovered earlier. There were actually survivors in

the ruins. An old blind man. Gu Yu accidentally triggered a mechanism and released him. He's been trapped in the ruins for over a thousand years and is unfathomably powerful. Fortunately, he showed no intention of attacking. Otherwise, Elder Guan would have stood no chance against him. We've tried to recruit him, but he has refused so far. Elder Han, with your strength, do you think you could help us recruit him? Han Zhu inquired, Where is he now? Li Qingzi replied, We've temporarily settled him in the inner sect city. Han Zhu planned to use the system to check

on the man. In front of Li Qingzi, he pretended to use divination, acting as though he was calculating. This person's background turned out to be remarkable. Named Xiao Yao, he possessed the strength of the ninth layer of the Fusion Void Realm. He was the top prodigy of the Heavenly Immortal Mansion 5,000 years ago, the sole survivor of the ancient Celestial Peak sect, blinded by divine punishment. Han Zhu asked Li Qingzi, Have you heard of the Celestial Peak sect? Li Qingzi responded, There are mentions of this sect in historical records. It was said to be a

major sect 5,000 years ago, but was destroyed by divine punishment for offending the gods. But Elder Han, what does this have to do with the old blind man? Han Zhu explained, It's very much related. That blind man, Xiao Yao, is the only survivor of the Celestial Peak sect. Li Qingzi's eyes widened in shock, inhaling sharply. So, by harboring him, are we not inviting divine punishment upon ourselves? Upon saying this, Li Qingzi was about to expel the blind man. Han Zhu quickly stopped him. Xiao Yao is at the ninth layer of the Fusion Void Realm. Do

you think you can just send him away? Let him stay in the Jade Pure sect for now. I'll meet him when I have time. Afterwards, Han Zhu sent Li Qingzi away. Whether friend or foe, knowing one's enemies and oneself ensures victory in every battle. For safety's sake, Han Zhu decided to simulate a battle against Xiao Yao. Fighting against this once-top prodigy of the Heavenly Immortal Mansion, the advantage of a simulation trial is that the opponent goes all out with every move, fighting to the death, allowing Han Zhu to understand just how formidable the opponent's limit

state could be. Based on past experience, the first move is usually their major technique. However, Xiao Yao's technique was truly cunning, able to create tens of thousands of clones in an instant. Not only did this give him a numerical advantage, but the aura of tens of thousands of Fusion Void Realm cultivators was also overwhelming. Han Zhu found it difficult to eliminate him instantly. He could only continue with the simulation trials, looking for the best way to instantly defeat Xiao Yao. In a dark canyon filled with the corpses of the fallen, a terrified Su Qi knelt

on the ground, shivering. The elite forces of the monster-taming demon sect had just been annihilated, and he nervously looked towards a figure in the distance, pleading, Demon Lord, I'm just a mortal. Please spare my life. The person was surrounded by an aura as deep as the cosmos, with a face as mysterious and terrifying as a black hole. The Demon Lord spoke leisurely, Boy, if I wanted you dead, you would be dead already. The fact that you're still alive is your opportunity. Understand? Opportunity? Does the senior intend to pass on a supreme technique to me? To

which the Demon Lord plainly said, Supreme technique? If you are willing to fulfill a wish for me, why not pass on a supreme technique? The Demon Lord saw that Su Qi's fate was extraordinary, difficult to fathom, but he didn't realize that Su Qi's fate was actually misfortune. At that moment, Su Qi had no other choice but to agree to do the Demon Lord's bidding. Little did he know, what the Demon Lord wanted was a massacre in the human realm. Su Qi expressed his horror, Senior must be joking. I'm afraid I can't help with that. The

Lord never misjudges people. You indeed have a talent for this. Meanwhile, Han Zhu was still engaged in simulated battles with Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao, worthy of his status as the top prodigy of the Heavenly Immortal Mansion, pushed Han Zhu, a Union Realm cultivator, to his limits. It took Han Zhu a full 89 minutes to defeat him the first time. The second battle took 23 minutes, and only by the fifth time was Han Zhu able to reduce the time to within three minutes barely. Not good enough. Three minutes are enough for him to level the Jade

Pure Sect. Han Zhu sighed, resorting to using his newly acquired ultimate move, the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Breaking Boundaries Finger. With a flick of his finger towards Xiao Yao, Han Zhu easily defeated him, this time in just two seconds. That feels better. That was the most splendid battle. But realistically, he probably wouldn't start with his ultimate move. Taking the initiative right away would do the job. Over the years, Xiao Yao was the first person to truly pique Han Zhu's interest. Such a powerhouse, if recruited into the Jade Pure Sect, would allow him more peace

of mind in his cultivation. At this moment, the system brought up an update, revealing some interesting developments in Han Zhu's circle of acquaintances. Oh, seems like there's some fun happening outside. Chick is about to evolve. Speaking of which, Chick was extremely interested in the corpse of Zhu Dou. Han Zhu turned the corpse into jerky, which the plump chicken indulged in daily. The jerky made by the master is unparalleled. Probably the best in the world. The rest will be saved for the new year. Bu Chang'an ran over anxiously. Master, there's trouble. The Fusong Tree is moving

again. What? Again? Can't it just stay quiet? Bu Chang'an insightfully suggested, Ah, master, don't you think it's acting like it's in heat? After all, when it came to matters of heat, Bu Chang'an knew more than his master. Han Zhu had an epiphany. The Fusong Tree could attract Zhu Dou and the Golden Crow, so there must be a way to utilize them. Since these divine beasts are of the fire attribute, could the tree require the bloodline of a high-level fire attribute creature? Chick also spoke up. Not to hide from you, master, but lately, I've felt like

it's been beckoning me to climb up. But I was afraid you might disapprove, so I didn't dare. Right. Zhu Dou is a divine beast, and the dark prison chicken is the reincarnation of the previous demon saint. Their status shouldn't be too far apart. Besides, Chick consumed Zhu Dou, so its bloodline should contain some of its essence, which should satisfy the Fusong Tree. Why not? It's only natural for a phoenix to reside in a tree. Han Zhu encouraged Chick to climb the tree. Really? But you'll have to build your own nest. Excitedly, Chick flew up to

the Fusong Tree. Indeed. Once Chick built its nest and settled in, the Fusong Tree stopped shaking. Han Zhu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Good. The Fusong Tree has calmed down. Now it shouldn't bring any more trouble. Just as one wave subsides, another arises. The spiritual energy here is abundant. This must be the ascetic Immortal Mountain. I presume you are the strongest. The Godslaying Elder. A voice came from behind Han Zhu. The speaker was the prodigy Xiao Yao. Han Zhu didn't expect Xiao Yao to come to him directly and ask, What brings you here, fellow

Taoist? Xiao Yao stated, Your sect leader has been inviting me to join the sect, but my situation is rather unique. Here's the deal. I'll join the Jade Pure sect if you, on behalf of the sect, can withstand one palm strike from me. What? Isn't that a bit arrogant? Wasn't that line usually for the master to say? Is there a new character now? Han Zhu wasn't surprised, knowing this confrontation was inevitable. Alright, let's test our strengths in the sky. But Xiao Yao declared, No need, and immediately raised his right palm. Unleashing a full force strike. A

deadly aura filled the air as his palm solidly hit Han Zhu's chest. Master, Chick and Buchanan were terrified. Xiao Yao's palm struck Han Zhu squarely in the chest, but the impact felt like it hit cotton, with all the force dissipated. Although Xiao Yao was blind, he could tell Han Zhu was covered in defensive spiritual treasures. Since you're wearing so many spiritual treasures, I won't hold back. I'll strike with all my strength. Han Zhu thought to himself, Really now? Full strength at the ninth layer of the fusion void realm. Is this a duel or murder? Despite

his internal complaints, Han Zhu remained calm on the surface. If I withstand it, will you truly join the Jade Pure sect and follow the sect leader's commands? Xiao Yao replied, I never go back on my word. Indeed, I am in need of a place to stay, and the Jade Pure sect has left a good impression on me. Han Zhu nodded, Waiting for the palm strike. Then let's proceed. Xiao Yao once again raised his palm, gathering spiritual energy. The seas of clouds above churned tumultuously, this palm clearly more powerful than the last. Despite being blind, Xiao

Yao could sense Han Zhu's confidence. The publicly acknowledged strongest in the Jade Pure sect is only at the low levels of the spirit transformation realm. His confidence in accepting this challenge. Could he be at the fusion void realm? The strike hit Han Zhu squarely in the chest with a thunderous sound, instantly dispersing the surrounding immortal energy and dust, creating a whirlwind that even sent some of the lower cultivation onlookers flying. As the dust settled, Xiao Yao was shocked. Union Realm? You're a Union Realm cultivator? A sect without even an fusion void realm cultivator has a

Union Realm powerhouse. Han Zhu? With his hands clasped behind his back, calmly said, So, about the agreement we just made, it still stands, right? Xiao Yao is straightforward. A gentleman's agreement is worth nine cauldrons. From now on, I am a member of the Jade Pure sect. At the same time, Han Zhu also received a system prompt. Xiao Yao has developed a favorable impression of you. Current favorability is one star. Pleased internally, Han Zhu said, Please keep my cultivation level a secret. Xiao Yao asked in surprise, The people of the Jade Pure sect don't know? Han

Zhu explained, Yes, my cultivation level is quite conspicuous in the Jade Pure sect. I also worry that the sect might cause trouble relying on my strength. Apart from longevity, I desire nothing and usually engage in ascetic cultivation. Not many people are aware of my real power. Xiao Yao couldn't help but admire Han Zhu more. Such a temperament in a cultivator is rare. If only the Celestial Peak sect had been half as low-key back in the day, they wouldn't have faced their calamity. Let's leave it at that. Go find the sect leader. He will arrange a

position for you. After parting ways, Xiao Yao headed to the main peak to sort out his entry formalities with the sect leader. Returning to the entrance of the innate cave dwelling, Chick nibbled on jerky and asked Han Zhu, Master, why didn't you give him a lesson? Shouldn't it be one palm from him, one sword from you? Han Zhu helplessly retorted, If I were to strike you with a sword, would you dare to take it? I'm too cute. How could the master possibly strike me? Chick was getting a bit too conceited. Han Zhu thought, Needing to

keep it in check. The persona of the surviving chicken couldn't crumble. Han Zhu warned, I need to remind you that our current situation isn't as rosy as you think. Did you see that man's eyes just now? That's because of a curse from the immortals. Chick's eyes widen in shock. A curse from the immortals? Yes, it's unpredictable. Staying anywhere is equally dangerous. So don't get ahead of yourself. Also, I didn't want to tell you this, but the jerky you've been eating is made from Zhu Dou's corpse. It is the offspring of the divine beast Vermillion Bird.

Haven't you noticed the changes in your body, all thanks to the divine beast? So, you need to practice diligently and become stronger in case the Vermillion Bird seeks revenge. I've deduced that the Vermillion Bird already bears a grudge against us. So I need to retreat and cultivate as well. Verm. Vermillion Bird. Master. Why didn't you say so earlier? Give the rest of this jerky to the dog then. Chick completely panicked. Trembling with fear and even feeling nauseous. But it was too late to spit out a Zhu Dou now. The next day, the Jade Pure sect

announced the induction of a new elder, Fusion Void Realm Elder Xiao Yao. This news excited the entire sect. Li Qingzi prepared a warm welcoming ceremony. Today is a joyous day. Let us welcome the new Fusion Void Realm Elder Xiao Yao to the Jade Pure sect. Wow. That's a realm only the ancestors have reached. The Jade Pure sect is really getting better. I need to hurry and present a gift to curry favor with Elder Xiao Yao. At the end of the day, Elder Xiao Yao agreed to join the Jade Pure sect after a sparring session with

Elder Han. Elder Han truly is the pillar of the Jade Pure sect. Who would have known that Elder Han was once just a little medicine servant in the outer sect, and the Jade Pure sect itself was once a minor sect in Great Swallow. It can only be said that the day Elder Han decided to join the Jade Pure sect was the luckiest day since the founding of the sect. Without Elder Han, the Jade Pure sect as it is known today would not exist. Five years passed in a blink of an eye. Compared to the glory

of the Jade Pure sect, the cultivation world was undergoing tumultuous changes. Next door, the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate from Great Way bypassed Great Swallow and attacked the Formless sect in Ancient Origin Province. The two super sects fought fiercely for five years. The Bloodflame Heavenly Gate was utterly defeated by the Formless sect, with its Union Realm guest suffering severe injuries and hiding somewhere to recover. Leisure True Person had little hope for the current situation. Senior Brother, we have lost again. It's difficult. The guest from the Union Realm was severely injured and has fled to an unknown location

to heal. Sect Leader Liu Bami also sighed. The Formless sect is now advancing towards Great Way with an overwhelming force. Our Bloodflame Heavenly Gate is finished. Leisure True Person had a sudden insight. Not necessarily, Junior Brother. Why don't we surrender? Liu Bami said. We have a blood feud with the Formless sect. Even if we surrender, they will not let us off. Not surrendering to the Formless sect, but to the Jade Pure sect. Leisure True Person said lightly. Jade Pure sect? Liu Bami exclaimed in surprise. Leisure True Person explained. We can affiliate ourselves with the Jade

Pure sect as long as our lineage is preserved. In the cultivation world, having subsidiary forces isn't unusual. Think about it. Sects around Great Way are weaker than our Bloodflame Heavenly Gate, and sects strong enough to suppress the Formless sect are too far from us. Our only choice is the closer Jade Pure sect. Liu Bami questioned. Could it be that the Jade Pure sect is stronger than the Formless sect, capable of withstanding the pressure of an attack from the Formless sect? If it's the Jade Pure sect, perhaps it really could. Leisure True Person silently thought of

Han Ju. Five years later, Han Ju finally came out of his cave dwelling again to stretch his legs. With the Dark Prison Chicken guarding the place, the Fusang Tree hasn't been causing any trouble. The Fusang Tree and the Earth Immortal Gourd Vine are both growing well. Together with Bu Chang'an, the spiritual energy of Ascetic Immortal Mountain has been continuously improving. Life is still so beautiful. Han Ju also finally broke through to the third layer of the Union Realm. Everything peaceful and beautiful. Han Ju habitually opened his social relations to check messages. The dog's life is

indeed full of variety. Mo and Zhou brothers are also not having a bad time. Master is about to reach spirit transformation. Eh. Xiao Yao is still being cursed by Immortals. Will harboring Xiao Yao bring disaster to the Jade Pure sect? Rather than that, Su Qi is truly a headache. His divine status has only now awakened. The misfortune he brings is already terrifying. How exaggerated will it be once awakened? But speaking of which, Su Qi is quite pitiable. People around him always died because of him. Yet he doesn't know it's his fault. The heavens sent him

down to the Moral World and erased his memories of his past life, letting him wreak havoc among mortals. And the last time with Zhu Dou, too. It caused such a commotion and yet the heavens didn't intervene. As if they permitted it. The heavens don't seem as positive as the rumors suggest. They're skilled at shifting disasters but don't offer any benefits. What are their intentions? Could it be that there are too many people in the Moral Realm and the heavens want to control the population? Meanwhile, at the main peak of the Jade Pure sect, visitors have

arrived. Li Qingzi, the Supreme Elder, Xiao Yao, and a group of elders gathered in the Great Hall as Yan Lin True Person from the Blood Flame Heavenly Gate came to pledge allegiance. Li Qingzi frowned. What defect to the Jade Pure sect? Are you serious? Our sect does not wish to be dragged into the conflict. Between your sect and the Formless sect, the Supreme Elder also analyzed. Clearly, they intend to use us as a shield. Yan Lin True Person said, Our sect leader has stated that if the Jade Pure sect agrees, the Blood Flame Heavenly Gate

is willing to fully merge into the Jade Pure sect and become its 19th peak. This statement caused an uproar among the elders. Is this for real? After annexing Great Way, the foundation of the Blood Flame Heavenly Gate has strengthened significantly, far surpassing the Jade Pure sect. If the Jade Pure sect could absorb them, it would undoubtedly soar to new heights. We can't act rashly. We must first deal with the Formless sect. They are also a formidable force. If we absorb the Blood Flame Heavenly Gate, who will stand against the Formless sect? Yan Lin True Person

was somewhat disgruntled. I can't understand our sect leader's strategy. The Jade Pure sect is so weak. Why should we? They only have one lower-level spirit transformation realm cultivator, and the rest are all at the nascent soul realm. Combined, they pose no threat to me. Except for him. Elder Xiao Yao Li Qingzi stood up. Elder Xiao Yao, please take good care of our guest. I need to discuss this matter with Elder Han. Watching Li Qingzi's departing figure, Yan Lin True Person thought disdainfully. Not only does the sect lack real power, but its sect leader also lacks

decisiveness. What were the sect master and leisure True Person thinking? Wanting to affiliate with such a sect? Xiao Yao suddenly stepped forward. I remember attending the founding celebration of the Blood Flame Heavenly Gate 5,000 years ago. How have you fallen so low? Never mind. Since we are both elders, why not have a spar? Yan Lin True Person awkwardly thought, Trying to hide your cultivation and surprise me with a Golden Core realm disguise? Such tricks won't fool me. I've already seen you at the first layer of the Fusion Void realm. Meanwhile, Li Qingzi had found Han

Zhu, Elder Han, about accepting the Blood Flame Heavenly Gate. What do you think? Han Zhu pondered. The Formless Sect. This move will undoubtedly offend the Formless Sect. Although I'm not afraid of Enlightenment Eccentric, I fear he might have even stronger backers. How is the Jade Pure Sect's strength now? Can we withstand the Formless Sect? Li Qingzi sighed. In fact, disciples from the Formless Sect have already intruded into the Great Swallow's border some time ago. There have been many conflicts between our disciples, with us mostly on the losing side. What's worse, they sent several Fusion Void

realm powerhouses to occupy parts of Great Swallow. In the end, it was only thanks to Elder Xiao Yao that those people were suppressed. Han Zhu raised an eyebrow. This Enlightenment Eccentric. Is he targeting me? No. He shouldn't know that I've been secretly cursing him. That means we actually don't have a choice. Once the Formless Sect annexes Great Way, Great Swallow will inevitably become their next target. Indeed, the Jade Pure Sect is in danger. Li Qingzi said anxiously. As they were talking, a thunderous roar came from outside. It's Elder Xiao Yao and Yanlin True Person from

the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate. How did those two start fighting? No worries. From what I see, they're just sparring. Han Zhu said calmly. Xiao Yao, being at the ninth layer of the Fusion Void realm, Yanlin True Person is certainly not his match. The ninth layer of the Fusion Void realm. Why the disguise? Who taught you such a deceptive tactic? Li Qingzi was speechless. I can't tell it's just a spar. You forced this on me. Take this. Yanlin True Person prepared to unleash his big move. A blood-red fire snake carrying terrifying pressure crashed towards Xiao Yao, who

didn't even bother to dodge. Instead, he formed hand seals and deployed a divine ability. Han Zhu was familiar with this move, as Xiao Yao instantly created numerous duplicates of himself. Li Qingzi, having never seen this technique, was speechless with astonishment. Han Zhu said, If the Jade Pure Sect truly wants to absorb the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate, it needs to suppress them first. Otherwise, even if the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate merges into the Jade Pure Sect now, it might still harbor rebellious intentions later. This. All right. Elder Han is right. Li Qingzi said, Somewhat helplessly, It seems Xiao

Yao and I share the same thought, both wanting to suppress the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate, which is why he suggested the spar. Soon after, the fight ended, and Yanlin True Person, with a dejected look, said, Understood. I will convey your sect's intentions to our sect master. If there are no further instructions, I will take my leave. Look at his condition. What if the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate decides not to come after all? Han Zhu coolly replied, They are the ones in need. Since they came to seek protection from the Jade Pure Sect, they must adopt the proper

attitude of seeking help. While Han Zhu was pondering the future developments, the system prompted. Destiny Bearer detected. Do you wish to view their origins? Wow. Here comes another one. Mo Rongqi, at the fourth level of the Golden Core Realm, reincarnated as the War God of the Upper Realm Divine Palace, with the honorific title Marvelous Truth Divine Emperor. Mysteriously, he was attracted to the Jade Pure Sect by the primordial spiritual ginseng. Han Zhu was stunned. The War God of the Divine Palace? Marvelous Truth Divine Emperor? This is quite interesting. At this moment, Gu Yugong was leading

a group of cultivators on a tour of the Jade Pure Sect. These cultivators were not wearing the Taoist robes of the Jade Pure Sect, presumably because they were newly recruited. Gu Yugong deceived them, saying, The Jade Pure Sect is the unparalleled choice for rogue cultivators to become official. Suddenly, one person pointed ahead and asked, Elder, is that also a peak of the Jade Pure Sect? He was pointing at the Ascetic Immortal Mountain. Gu Yugong advised the new disciples not to trespass on this mountain, or they would be directly expelled. This person was Mo Rongqi, who

looked like a youth, appearing to be only 15 or 16 years old, probably because he took the youth-preserving pill early. That strong sensation came from the Ascetic Immortal Mountain. Does the elder who slays gods accept disciples? Mo Rongqi inquired further. Gu Yugong hesitated for a moment. He does accept disciples. Previously, there was a monk who knelt at the foot of the mountain for five years before successfully becoming a disciple. Upon hearing this, the rogue cultivators were astonished. Kneeling for five years? What great perseverance! Upon hearing this, Mo Rongqi took note. For that thing, what does

kneeling for five years matter? To all elders, I won't be returning. I plan to stay here and become a disciple of the elder who slays gods. As if sensing something, the primordial spiritual ginseng sneezed ominously. Two months later, the sky was once again filled with purple twilight, causing astonishment throughout the world. Purple twilight? Has someone else comprehended the eternal way of the sword? Huang Jihao, looking at the sky filled with twilight, said, It couldn't be him again, could it? Sheng Huanqiu Jin had nothing to say. Indeed, it was Han Zhu. With his top-tier aptitude for

the way of the sword, Han Zhu made new progress, allowing the heaven-and-earth mysterious yellow boundary-breaking sword finger to advance further. Entering the way of the sword's river again, the world produced anomalies along with him. This time, Han Zhu wasn't surprised, but somewhat nervous. I hope I don't encounter that mysterious existence again. Looking at the many figures moving forward around him, Han Zhu sighed. Everyone is progressing. I wonder how I'm doing. Suddenly, Han Zhu felt his speed increase under his feet, getting faster and faster, unable to stop. In a short time, Han Zhu surpassed many people.

After running wildly for a while, Han Zhu realized, If that person discovers me going forward, it's all over. No sooner had he finished speaking than a figure appeared in front of him. Han Zhu's heart skipped a beat. Here comes this person again. The figure was covered in sword light, making it hard to discern his true face. He rebuked Han Zhu. You again. I already gave you a chance last time. Don't push your luck. Han Zhu was nearly in tears. Senior. Oh, senior. I didn't mean to offend. I just can't stop myself. Please help me. Before

he finished speaking, Han Zhu had already passed him. The person thought, This is the first time in many years I've seen someone so fast. In an instant, Han Zhu had run wildly to the threshold of the Tai realm, and if he didn't break, he would rush in. At the last moment, someone grabbed his collar. It was the guardian who stopped Han Zhu. You clearly have no past life. So how can you have such an aptitude for the way of the sword? Ordinary people find it hard to take even one step. Yet you seem to be

chased by the river of the way of the sword as if it's feeding you. Are you cheating? Han Zhu felt a bit awkward, since he couldn't reveal having a system. Everything has a beginning. Perhaps one day, I will become the illustrious past life of someone else. The mysterious sword cultivator did not respond. After three breaths, the mysterious sword cultivator waved his hand. The realm of Tai is not something you can control at this moment. Be careful of backlash. You should go back. With that, he extended his finger as if to flick. What? You're going to

flick my forehead? With a whoosh sound, Han Zhu's consciousness spun around. When he opened his eyes again, he was back inside the innate cave dwelling. Thanks to his progress in the way of the sword river, Han Zhu's aptitude for the way of the sword surged again. The spiritual energy of the way of the sword soared into the sky, piercing the clouds. Morong Chi, who was waiting at the mountain's base to become a disciple, saw this miraculous sight. That's right. There must be something I want on this mountain. I wonder if the elder who slays gods

will notice me. Oh heavens. Please. Eh? Why is there someone at the base of the mountain? A voice sounded next to Morong Chi. Could it be the elder who slays gods has come? Morong Chi looked up to see a short, plump figure staring dumbfoundedly at him. Sun Chan'an foolishly stared at Morong Chi. Infatuated. This young man is so beautiful. Looking at the short, plump figure in front of him, Morong Chi was dumbstruck. This guy is so ugly. Could he be the elder who slays gods? Without another word, Morong Chi knelt down with a slap. Please.

God-slaying elder. Take me as your disciple. Sun Chan'an was startled. He squinted at Morong Chi. My realm is higher than his. So taking him as a disciple isn't difficult. But I should ask my master first. After asking for his name, Sun Chan'an told him to keep kowtowing and then went up the mountain. Morong Chi thought the other party was testing him, so he continued to kowtow. Arriving in front of the innate cave dwelling, Sun Chan'an told Han Ju about Morong Chi's wish to become a disciple. Han Ju found the situation odd. Someone outside wants to

take you as their master. Sun Chan'an said he quite liked the person and would take him as a disciple if the master didn't object. Han Ju thought for a moment. The person is the reincarnation of the marvelous Truth Divine Emperor. It would be good to form a good relationship. Bring him to the front of the Fusang Tree for cultivation. From now on, you will oversee him, and he must not leave the vicinity of the Fusang Tree without permission. Sun Chan'an was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Han Ju. At this time, Morong Chi was still kneeling, accepting

the test. Suddenly, Sun Chan'an came in front of him. Come, follow me up the mountain. Morong Chi immediately started calling him master with sweet words. Another year passed. One day, the sect master of Bloodflame Heavenly Gate, Lu Bumi, and Leisure True Person arrived. This time, they were determined to make the Jade Pure Sect accept them. Lu Bumi said, what if they still refuse? Leisure True Person said, refuse? He he, then. Then I will kneel down and beg them. Upon seeing Han Ju, Leisure True Person thumped down on his knees, completely baffling Han Ju. Lu Bumi

understood that as long as the elder who slays gods agreed, the Jade Pure Sect would surely agree. Han Ju released his oppressive aura, and the Six Paths Ultimate Seal exploded, locking down both individuals, planning to intimidate them further. In that instant, Lu Bumi and Leisure True Person could not move. They felt the terror of facing death, or of the Union Realm. It's the Union Realm. Lu Bumi's legs went soft, and he also knelt down, tremblingly stating their purpose, hoping Han Ju would consent. Han Ju calmly said, I hope that after you join the Jade Pure

Sect, you will not harbor any second thoughts. All disciples should be dispersed and integrated into the Jade Pure Sect. Understood? The two hurriedly kowtowed to express their gratitude. Han Ju then released the Six Paths Ultimate Seal into their bodies. If you ever harbor any second thoughts in the future, I will chase you to the ends of the earth. Do you understand the consequences? Lu Bumi hurriedly assured that they genuinely wished to join the Jade Pure Sect. Han Ju did not continue to press them and directed them towards the main peak. Seeing Han Ju about to

return to his quarters, Lu Bumi immediately said, Senior, please wait. Previously, the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate was heavily harassed by the formless sect. Many treasures and disciples are still in great way and cannot be brought to the Jade Pure Sect. Could you lend a hand? Han Ju, recalling his grudge against the formless sect, replied, You go back and organize the evacuation. I will take action when the time comes. The two bid farewell to Han Ju, thinking to themselves, Joining the Jade Pure Sect was indeed the right move. Back in his cave dwelling, Han Ju started pondering

how to deal with the Enlightenment Eccentric. As long as he keeps getting injured, the formless sect won't dare to act rashly. The matter with my wife cannot end like this either. After some thought, he took out the Book of Misfortune and began to curse the Enlightenment Eccentric. A month later, within the formless sect, Enlightenment Eccentric coughed up blood again. He still couldn't guess who was cursing him. How can I take action like this? At that moment, a scout reported, The Bloodflame Heavenly Gate has already joined the Jade Pure Sect. Should we continue to pursue and

attack? Enlightenment Eccentric sighed helplessly. Let's call a truce. Negotiate peace. Hearing about negotiating peace, Dong Wangxian became anxious. If this gets out, others might think we're afraid of the Jade Pure Sect. With our strength, even facing both sects wouldn't be difficult. Suddenly, Enlightenment Eccentric thought of something. Right, it's that woman from the Jade Pure Sect. Ever since we tried to capture that woman, the curses began. And now it's related to the Jade Pure Sect again. Could it really be connected to them? Dong Wangxian claimed that the highest strength in the Jade Pure Sect was only

at the spirit transformation stage, and he himself could surely capture Liu Bami if he personally took action. Enlightenment Eccentric immediately stopped Dong Wangxian. You are about to participate in the Heavenly Immortal Mansion trial. Don't cause unnecessary trouble at this crucial time. Yet Dong Wangxian was still reluctant. After fighting with the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate for so many years, are we just going to give up like this? With Enlightenment Eccentric's mind made up, Dong Wangxian had no choice but to comply. Meanwhile, on Ascetic Immortal Mountain, Murong Qi had been practicing with Sun Chang'an for a long time.

It was only when Xing Hongxian visited that he realized Sun Chang'an was not the elder who slays gods. Damn, I followed the wrong master. Since the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate sought refuge with the Jade Pure Sect, the formless sect temporarily halted their offensive. Consequently, the Jade Pure Sect's development soared, attracting a continuous stream of mortals and rogue cultivators seeking to join. Thus, the Great Swallow enjoyed ten years of peace. The system sent a notification. Today is your 400th birthday, and you can obtain one spiritual treasure. You have the following choices. 1. Come out of seclusion and

obtain a spiritual treasure to prove your strength to the world. It's uncertain what kind of heavenly materials and earthly treasures you might get. 2. Continue in seclusion. Staying away from disputes, you will obtain a spiritual treasure. On this joyful day, Han Ju didn't hesitate to choose the second option directly. You chose to continue in seclusion and obtained a spiritual treasure. Congratulations on acquiring this supreme spiritual treasure. Perfected Heavenly Spirit Bracelet. A supreme defensive spiritual treasure. It can isolate spiritual scents and defend against soul attacks. Sweet! Another defensive spiritual treasure. After putting on the bracelet, Han

Ju looked even more like an immortal. At this moment, a voice echoed across the sky of the Jade Pure sect. I am Ji Lingchan, here to challenge the Jade Pure sect. This is a contest of skill, not a matter of life and death. Does anyone in the Jade Pure sect dare to fight me? A challenge to the sect? Another Huang Jihao. Han Ju immediately checked the challenger's cultivation level. Ji Lingchan, second layer of the Union Realm, disciple of Heavenly Immortal Mansion, arrogant by nature, wishes to become the world's number one cultivator. Wanders the world, challenging

others everywhere. Has not yet been defeated. A disciple of Heavenly Immortal Mansion? I have long heard of Heavenly Immortal Mansion, and today I finally meet a disciple. He immediately used the simulation trial to test his strength. After waiting outside for a long time with no response, Ji Lingchan began to speak disdainfully. The Jade Pure sect, which has taken in the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate, has no one who dares to fight me. This is truly disappointing. I offer one million high-grade spirit stones. The winner takes the stones. Not enough with one million spirit stones? I'll add another

spiritual treasure. Really? Is the Jade Pure sect full of cowards? People of the Jade Pure sect, come out. If you have the guts to establish your sect, why don't you have the courage to fight? The person kept nagging in the sky, and Li Qingzi dared not make a sound, only hiding away to read magazines in seclusion. With Elder Han and Elder Xiao around, they should handle the sky if it falls. Xiao Yao felt the opponent was not simple, didn't want to take risks, and thought of having Han Ju make a move. Han Ju found it

bothersome and wanted Li Qingzi and Xiao Yao to go and fight. Losing is okay, just as long as Ji Lingchan is sent away. Thus, an awkward scene unfolded. A Union Realm great cultivator came to challenge, but no one responded to the challenge, nor did anyone come out to receive him. If no one comes out within ten breaths, I will flatten the Jade Pure sect. Ji Lingchan grew increasingly angry, preparing his magic to bomb the Jade Pure sect's eighteen peaks. Fellow Taoist, please hold. Fellow Taoist is formidable, and the Jade Pure sect admits inferiority, willing to

concede. Han Ju conceded directly to avoid trouble. Upon hearing this, Ji Lingchan frowned tightly. You've already come. It's not as simple as just saying you concede, and that's that. Fellow Taoist is as elegant as a jade tree facing the wind, with a handsome appearance, clearly possessing the temperament of a heavenly pride. Why possess such anger? How about we become friends instead? Ji Lingchan, flattered, still pressed on. You're eloquent, since you're here anyway. Let me give you a few pointers. Let the Jade Pure sect witness. After hearing this, Han Ju frowned, getting angry. This guy is

really shameless. Does Fellow Taoist insist on a contest? Cut the chatter. I am one of the Heavenly Immortal Mansion's proud talents. Never afraid of anyone. Han Ju didn't waste words, slowly shaping his fingers into a gun shape. Fellow Taoist, you've offended. With a whoosh, a sword energy flashed by, and Ji Lingchan was shattered in an instant. Merely a proud talent from the Heavenly Immortal Mansion, you couldn't withstand me for three seconds in a simulated trial. Who gave you the courage to challenge me? Fellow Taoist, please spare his life. Suddenly, a voice called out to him.

Han Ju was taken aback, only to see a golden dragon soaring, protecting an elder in Ji Lingchan's primordial spirit. Here comes the elder, after the junior. I didn't want to cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of it. Han Ju said coldly. The elder sighed as well. Fellow Taoist is right. This matter is indeed Lingchan's fault. I apologize on behalf of my misguided disciple. The elder's tone was sincere, and he appeared even more majestic and profound against the backdrop of the golden dragon. May Fellow Taoist grant me a favor and allow me to take him away?

Han Ju had no intention of killing. Can I trust Fellow Taoist's word? Of course. Suddenly, the system notified. Taoist Jikong has developed a favorable impression of you. Currently at three stars. Taoist Jikong, one of the twelve Taoists of Heavenly Immortal Mansion, seventh layer of the Tribulation Crossing Realm. He developed a favorable impression because you did not directly kill Ji Lingchan. Damn it! Seventh layer of the Tribulation Crossing Realm. Lucky I didn't make a mortal enemy. Han Ju pretended to be calm. The elder then asked. May I know Fellow Taoist's name? Loki. Loki? What a good

name. Taoist Jikong praised, then left with Ji Lingchan, leaving the Jade Pure Sex Territory. Ji Lingchan began to feel fearful. I couldn't even withstand a single move from Loki. Taoist Jikong said slowly. If he hadn't intentionally spared your primordial spirit, even I couldn't have protected you. Ji Lingchan was shocked. But Master, you are in the Tribulation Crossing Realm. As a clone, I was fortunate that the true body of the Heavenly Dragon protected you. But if he had exerted his full strength, I fear even the Heavenly Dragon would not have been able to withstand it. Ji

Lingchan was dumbfounded and speechless. I never imagined that there are so many hidden powerhouses outside the Heavenly Immortal Mansion. Even in a small sect, there are great beings in seclusion. Taoist Jikong saw that he had gained some understanding and thought to himself, the child has grown up. However, Ji Lingchan quickly rallied his spirits. In the future, I should challenge more sects like this. Only then can I deepen my understanding that there are people beyond people, and heavens beyond heavens. Damn, all my words were for nothing. Now, get back to the Heavenly Immortal Mansion and don't

come out for a hundred years. Why? Master, I've only been out for a short while. Idiot, who do you think has been saving you every time? Since Ji Lingchan's last challenge, another five years have passed. In these five years, the Jade Pure sect thrived smoothly, cooperating with the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate. Inside a quiet secret hall of the Jade Pure sect, Ma Zhu, who was betrayed by Han Zhu, is still detained. Thanks to Han Zhu's instructions, her cultivation wasn't neglected. Now her cultivation has reached the eighth level of the Golden Core Realm. Ma Zhu frowned deeply,

and between her eyebrows, there was a trace of murderous aura. Break out and leave this place. Avenge the Mo family. What are you waiting for? Your clan brother Ma Fuchu is still waiting for your help. This strange voice kept echoing in Ma Zhu's ears, like a ghost bewitching her, causing her body to tremble slightly and her mind to lose focus. After a long while, Ma Zhu suddenly opened her eyes, suppressing fear with anger. Who are you? Get away. I don't want you. You don't represent me. Cough. Ma Zhu suddenly coughed out a mouthful of blood,

gasping for air, sweat pouring down her pretty face. I clearly practiced the Mo family's ancestral techniques, but why does this technique cultivate demonic energy? The voice in her mind just now seemed like a demon, even claiming to be the family head. Could it be that the Mo family was really from the demonic path? Ma Zhu hesitated whether to rebuild her cultivation technique. That voice kept tempting her, seemingly intending to pass on the technique to her. If I were to rebuild, who knows how much time it would delay? She couldn't help but think of Han Zhu.

Back then, I achieved foundation establishment before him, but now Han Zhu's cultivation is unbelievably high. I finally have hope of catching up to him, and I don't want to give up. In a dark canyon, Su Qi was meditating, demonic energy swirled around him. He had discarded his previous techniques and started over with the Demon Lord's demonic cultivation. His cultivation was growing rapidly, and he unexpectedly resonated with the Demon Lord's demonic techniques, even surprising the Demon Lord himself. As a human, to achieve this is indeed beyond my comprehension. But what's going on recently? Have I hit

a bottleneck in my cultivation? The Demon Lord was very satisfied with Su Qi's cultivation, but dissatisfied with himself. My cultivation is always disturbed by inner demons. I haven't been able to properly cultivate. It's so annoying. He stood up and said, You just stay here and cultivate diligently. This place is protected by a formation I've set up. No one will dare to disturb you. Su Qi opened his eyes, asking with confusion, Where are you going? I'm going out for a walk, to slaughter a few sects to ease my mind. With those words, the Demon Lord transformed

into a wisp of demonic energy and dissipated on the spot. Su Qi hesitated. Should I take this chance to escape? Never mind. I should focus on my cultivation. The fact that the master hasn't taken action suggests he also wants me to take this opportunity to seriously cultivate in seclusion, instead of always needing his intervention. Thinking this, Su Qi buoyed his spirits and continued his cultivation. In the same month, the Jade Pure Sect welcomed a distinguished guest, the sect master of the Formless Sect, Enlightenment Eccentric. He asked Dong Huangxian to stay outside the Jade Pure Sect's

gate while he went in first, just in case something happens. It's good to have someone watching my back. As the sect leader, Li Qingzi had no choice but to come forward. The elders gathered at the gate as well, including Liu Bami and Leisure True Person. They thought Enlightenment Eccentric had come to seek revenge on them. But to their surprise, Enlightenment Eccentric was very polite, stating that his visit was to clear up a previous misunderstanding. Seeing he had no hostile intentions, Li Qingzi could only welcome him inside. I wonder where the Slayer God Elder of your

sect is. I had a bit of a misunderstanding with him earlier, and I would like to visit him personally. A grudge with Elder Han, this statement truly surprised everyone. At that moment, Xiao Yao bowed and said, The Slayer God Elder invites Enlightenment Eccentric to Ascetic Immortal Mountain for a talk. Li Qingzi said, Since the Slayer God Elder has invited you, I will take you there. Enlightenment Eccentric smirked coldly. His purpose for the visit was far from simple. Soon, the two arrived at the base of Ascetic Immortal Mountain. Enlightenment Eccentric could feel the rich spiritual energy

around. This is a good place for cultivation. What brings you here, senior? Han Zhu suddenly appeared before them, standing with his hands behind his back. What a handsome man. Seeing Han Zhu for the first time, Enlightenment Eccentric was taken aback by his charm. In a flash, his expression changed to one of solemnity, his eyes revealing a murderous intent. I have long heard of the Jade Pure Sex Slayer God Elder and have come to visit. Also, I wish to resolve any grievances between us. Please have a seat, senior. What grievances exist between us? Though Han Zhu

spoke politely, he had already made up his mind. This old turtle has entered the jar. Now let's not let him leave. Enlightenment Eccentric began, Previously, I was unaware that Miss Xing was your cultivation partner. And I indeed offended. It was my mistake. Therefore, after the Jade Pure Sect took over the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate, I did not continue to target you as a form of my apology. Han Zhu pretended to be puzzled. Is that so? Then I thank fellow Taoist. Let's leave the past in the past. Han Zhu thought to himself, In your life as well.

Suddenly, the system notified, Enlightenment Eccentric's hatred towards you has increased to five stars. Damn! From four stars to five stars. You must really wish to tear me to pieces. Additionally, I have often been cursed over these years. Is that your doing, fellow Taoist? Han Zhu didn't dare to admit it aloud. But his hand holding the cup paused. I am here to clear the air. Asking fellow Taoist not to take your anger out on me anymore. I will no longer disturb Miss Xing. And our two sects can establish a friendly relationship. A curse? I am an

upright person. How could I engage in such despicable acts? Moreover, we have never met. So how could I curse you? Han Zhu feigned innocence. This guy has something. Being able to guess it was me cursing him. Han Zhu thought, No, this person cannot be left alive. Enlightenment Eccentric inwardly cursed Han Zhu's shamelessness. With so many coincidences. If it wasn't you, then who else could it be? At the same time, he was estimating Han Zhu's strength. Although Han Zhu was equipped with spiritual treasures. He didn't emit an aura that alarmed him. Should I take this chance

to kill him? His refusal to admit it shows he fears me. Though he has many spiritual treasures. They pose no great threat. Even in a fight to the death. He couldn't kill me. With my nine tribulations divine ability. As long as my primordial spirit exists. My body will never perish. He can't win a war of attrition. If I eliminate him. Both the jade pure sect and the blood flame heavenly gate. Will fall into the hands of my formless sect. This thought in Enlightenment Eccentric's mind grew uncontrollably like wild grass. Fellow Taoist. We don't need to

pretend anymore. I'm not here to seek retribution. Enlightenment Eccentric said with a smile. The system again notified. Enlightenment Eccentric's hatred towards you has grown to 5.5 stars. Damn. It's still increasing. Enlightenment Eccentric's hatred could no longer be suppressed. And he instantly mobilized his entire spiritual power. Unknown to him. Countless six paths ultimate seals. Had already shot towards Enlightenment Eccentric. Hanju's eyes were cold as he sipped some hot tea. Outside the cave dwelling. Li Qingzi. Sun Chang'an. Yang Tiandong. And Chik were all waiting anxiously. Sun Chang'an frowned and said. Master dislikes being disturbed. This isn't breaking

master's rules. Is it? Li Qingzi looked somewhat embarrassed and helplessly said. The sect master of the formless sect. Didn't forcefully enter ascetic immortal mountain. Which is quite respectful. I didn't have much choice. Suddenly. A loud bang erupted from the innate cave dwelling. Shocking everyone. Chik transformed into a streak of black lightning. Dragging Li Qingzi into the innate cave dwelling. Upon entering the cave. They saw Enlightenment Eccentric standing at the entrance. Enlightenment Eccentric. What have you done to Elder Han? Li Qingzi shouted angrily. Don't attack. It's me. The four of them suddenly froze. Recognizing Hanju's voice.

I've obliterated his primordial spirit. Now it's my split soul controlling his actions. We need to act quietly now. I'll take his body and leave. We mustn't let the formless sect discover it was us who killed him. Li Qingzi was panic stricken. Understood. I'll immediately start spreading the news that Enlightenment Eccentric has already left. Eliminating Enlightenment Eccentric's primordial spirit in just two breaths. How strong is Elder Han exactly? In fact. Hanju had already simulated the battle eight times before. Finding that the simplest way to deal with Enlightenment Eccentric. Was to obliterate his primordial spirit with the

six paths ultimate seal directly. There's no time to lose. Sect leader. You should act now. Considering everything. Hanju now has no formidable enemies. The vermilion bird is in the heavens. And the monster-taming demon sect is in the distant northern region. He doesn't know whose doorstep to leave Enlightenment Eccentric's body at. If all else fails. Just pick a random demon clan to take the blame. At this time. Dong Huangxian and others. Following orders. Were still waiting outside the Jade Pure sect. Seeing Enlightenment Eccentric hastily leaving. Dong Huangxian immediately gave chase. Before his death. Enlightenment Eccentric's union

realm spiritual power was untapped. And with Hanju's soul controlling. Enlightenment Eccentric's body was able to fly at full speed. Dong Huangxian couldn't keep up. To shake them off. Hanju went full throttle. And whooshed away. Disappearing without a trace. Half a month later. With the old monster's body's spiritual power nearly depleted. Hanju. Controlling Enlightenment Eccentric. Arrived in a deep mountain. He left clues that would cast suspicion on the disciples of the formless sect. With the last bit of spiritual power. Before withdrawing his clone. Dong Huangxian. Who had been following the trail. Found that his master had

entered the territory of the green python great sage. A figure they couldn't afford to provoke. Dong Huangxian flew on a sword. Frowning as he discerned the direction of Enlightenment Eccentric. Suddenly. Two figures appeared ahead. Surprisingly. Zhou Fan and Mefuciu. The three passed by each other. And for some reason. Zhou Fan and Dong Huangxian inexplicably turned their heads to look. Seeing each other. Both parties felt an inexplicable palpitation. As if facing a natural enemy. Neither group lingered. Each disappearing in opposite directions. Zhou Fan said to Mefuciu. That guy just now annoyed me. I want to beat

him up. Mefuciu responded. Unamused. Can you not be so impulsive? Following you. I've suffered so much. Don't you have any sense? We're just returning to the Jade Pure sect to visit old friends. Don't stir up trouble. Zhou Fan chuckled. I really want to see the faces of those people in the Jade Pure sect when they see us. Especially Han Zhu. Inside the innate cave dwelling. Han Zhu was checking Enlightenment Eccentric's storage rings. This guy being the master of a sect really paid off. Owning four storage rings. Han Zhu nearly drooled while counting. All these treasures

and resources are enough to establish a sect. If handed over to the Jade Pure sect. It would surely soar even faster. But Han Zhu wouldn't be so selfless. This delivery man is too good. All of this is mine. While Han Zhu was happily playing with various treasures. Li Qingzi's voice came from outside the cave. Elder Han. There's trouble in the secret hall. Ma Zhu has fallen into demonic insanity and is rampaging. All beings in the vicinity of the secret hall are nearly slaughtered. Fallen into demonic insanity? Is she going to follow in Mefuciu's footsteps? Han

Zhu opened the panel. The most eye-catching notification was. Your friend Ma Zhu has awakened her demon soul. Fallen into the demon path. And her desire to kill has greatly increased. Awakened demon soul? What's that? At this moment. Ma Zhu was sitting cross-legged in the secret hall. Surrounded by pitch black demonic energy. The demonic energy enveloped Ma Zhu. Who let out a cold laugh. Any being that came into contact with the demonic energy was instantly pulverized. Soon. Han Zhu arrived at the secret hall. Everyone sighed in relief upon seeing him. Master Jingxiu said. Fortunately, the secret

hall is surrounded by protective restrictions. And the disciples kept their distance. Avoiding disaster. But the protective array has been shattered by the demonic energy. However, it's strange that Ma Zhu sealed herself shortly after her rampage began. Without any further movement. It seems she didn't want to harm the sect. The demonic energy in front of Han Zhu completely enveloped Ma Zhu. This doesn't look like a seal. More like a cocoon. Master Jingxiu nervously asked Han Zhu. Could there be an even bigger outbreak? Han Zhu said. Easily shattering a protective array that defends against spirit transformation and

fusion void realm experts. This demonic energy is not simple. Immediately evacuate the disciples within 10 miles of the secret hall. Master Jingxiu promptly acted on the instruction. Leaving Han Zhu alone to watch over Ma Zhu. He approached the demonic energy cocoon. Attempting to probe. But couldn't sense Ma Zhu's presence. This demonic energy has a strong resistance. Han Zhu puzzled. Ma Zhu hasn't reached the nascent soul stage. Yet the demonic energy she cultivated has such resistance. Oh no. Could there be someone else inside? In such a crucial moment. Only one thing can be done. Han Zhu

used the heaven and earth mysterious yellow boundary breaking sword finger. And a streak of golden light shot out. Shattering the cocoon formed by the demonic energy. Indeed. Ma Zhu was inside. And to his embarrassment. She was without a stitch on her. Her snow white skin dazzling to the eyes. The moment Ma Zhu's body hit the ground. Han Zhu immediately took off his robe and rushed over. Quickly covering her with it. Han Zhu continued to probe the Ma Zhu in his arms. There were no other souls in her body. Meaning she wasn't possessed. Using the six

realms of reincarnation. Han Zhu sent his primordial spirit into Ma Zhu's soul. Finding it transforming. Becoming unlike that of a human. What exactly is the origin of the Mo family? Ma Fu Chu also fell into the demon path before. Han Zhu was deep in thought. When Ma Zhu slowly opened her eyes. And Han Zhu's face came into her view. She wasn't startled. Instead. She looked at Han Zhu with a dazed expression. Now. Ma Zhu had become much more beautiful than before. Her charm more bewitching. Enough to make most men's hearts flutter. Wait. The color of

her pupils is off. Ma Zhu. Have you advanced to the nascent soul stage? But why was there no tribulation crossing? Han Zhu asked in surprise. However. As if Ma Zhu didn't hear him. She swooshed off the robe Han Zhu had draped over her. And continued to approach Han Zhu with those mystifying purple pupils. Han Zhu slapped her. Sending Ma Zhu flying from one side of the secret hall to the other. Breaking several pillars in the process. Stunned awake by the pain. Ma Zhu muttered. Ouch. Who hit me? Turning her head. She saw Han Zhu. Why

are you here? Coming to her senses. And quickly realizing her state. Ma Zhu exclaimed. Han Zhu. You pervert. You've seen my body. You have to take responsibility for me. From now on. I'll cling to you. Han Zhu looked helpless. Are you trying to scam me? After a bout of crying and fussing. Han Zhu began to inquire about the demonic energy. What's the deal with your emo family? Why have you turned into a demon? With a wronged expression. Ma Zhu said. I don't know either. Ever since I entered the golden core realm. I often heard a

voice during my cultivation. At first. I thought it was an inner demon. But recently I found out it wasn't. After checking the family secret texts left by my brother. I learned that it was the will of my ancestors. The emo family is not a demon cultivator in the cultivation world. But the true demon race. After the race was extinguished. Their demonic techniques spread among humans. Creating demon cultivators. My emo family is descended from the union of the demon race and humans. Han Zhu asked with narrowed eyes. Will you lose control? Han Zhu calculated how many

slaps it would take to save her if Ma Zhu went mad. And started slaughtering. Rolling her eyes. Ma Zhu said. I'm not a demon cultivator. Why would I lose control? Demon cultivators easily lose control. Because their bodies can't withstand the power of demonic techniques. Their inner demons are the backlash of the demon race's consciousness. By the way. I've inherited my ancestors' techniques. Which include a dual cultivation method. Would you like to cultivate with me? The two fell into silence. The atmosphere turning awkward. Just then. Han Zhu suddenly received a system notification. Mo Yiling has developed

hatred towards you. Currently at three stars. Damn. Who's this now? Han Zhu immediately checked the interpersonal relationships for Mo Yiling's information. Mo Yiling. Fifth layer of the tribulation crossing stage. Second generation head of the emo family. Trapped in a mysterious forbidden area. And unable to escape. She has chosen Ma Zhu as her successor. Hoping to rely on Ma Zhu to save herself. Due to Ma Zhu's feelings for you. She harbors animosity towards you. Believing you might be an obstacle to Ma Zhu's growth. Intent on eliminating you. Current hatred level. Three stars. This woman actually wants

to kill me? Han Zhu silently added her name to the book of misfortune. Ma Zhu has feelings for me? Really? Ma Zhu hesitantly asked. Would you like to practice that dual cultivation method with me? It would be beneficial for both of us. Han Jue answered, No thanks, you've just made a breakthrough, it's best to consolidate your cultivation first, and don't forget to return my robe, that's the only one I have. I really can't understand Moyouling's motive, a tribulation-crossing realm cultivator relying on someone in the nascent soul realm, it's impossible for Mozhu not to be influenced

by the ancestral demonic techniques she's aligned with. To ensure Mozhu can cultivate peacefully, it seems I'll have another daily task. Xing Hongxuan smiled and said, Husband, I went to the Western Abyss province for training while I was away from Great Swallow. A person named Wei Yuan gave me a bunch of heavenly materials and earthly treasures as a greeting to you. Do you know him? Han Jue thought to himself, Old Huang is quite thoughtful. Husband, there's another thing. I found this in the lands of the demon race. I saw two demon kings fighting over it, so

it must be a heavenly material or earthly treasure. I managed to take it while they were both injured. This grass seems extraordinary, I wonder if it's useful to you. Suddenly, Han Jue received a system notification, detected that this heavenly material and earthly treasure have the potential of an innate destiny holder. Do you want to view its origin? Grass. Has this grass turned into a spirit? Heaven earth grass. A thousand years ago, it was just an ordinary blade of grass. It encountered a deity meditating nearby and, after being exposed to the deity's aura for a hundred

years, gradually transcended its mundane nature. Over thousands of years, it faced several extinctions. Each time before its destruction, it instinctively turned to ash, scattering across the moral realm to regrow. This grass has the potential to become a divine herb, even a deity. Grass. A deity's potential? Han Jue exclaimed. How have you been these years? Xing Hongxian sighed. I must say, it's only after going out that I realized how small Great Swallow is. Take the neighboring only because province. For example, the Jade Pure sect would not even count as a second-rate sect there. Is only because

province that powerful? The Jade Pure sect's reputation today is all thanks to you, husband. It will surely surpass other states in the future, Han Jue modestly said. I was just forced into it. Xing Hongxian continued. Husband, you're capable. Also, the list of the top 100 cultivators in the world has been updated again. I think husband should be at the top. Han Jue was puzzled. Top 100 what now? Let me tell you. In the top 100, there's someone from the punishment department who uses a giant sword as a skateboard. Super cool. And someone who bathes with

a sword. Oh! I almost forgot. Han Jue took out some elixirs from his storage ring. These are high-level elixirs for extending lifespan. Consider them Enlightenment Eccentric's apology gift. Take them. Given your mediocre talent, I'm worried you'll leave too early. Xing Hongxian was annoyed. Always such a buzzkill. You just love to tease me. Don't worry. I've already taken them, and I still have heavenly materials and earthly treasures on hand. My lifespan is still increasing. It's just rare to see someone over 400 years old still in the Golden Core Realm. Xing Hongxian suddenly sighed. Speaking of lifespan,

you're seeing your brother from Jade Seclusion Peak. Lu Sanxing passed away 10 years ago. Han Jue was surprised. Senior brother Lu Sanxing? No wonder I felt like someone was missing these years when looking through the friend circle. Han Jue spent decades on Jade Seclusion Peak. He often looked after me in cultivation, and now I want to repay him, but can't. Xing Hongxian said he was so close to the nascent soul realm, but the Jade Pure Sect had too few life-extending medicines. If he had left Great Swallow earlier, maybe there would have been a sliver of

hope. After all, Great Swallow's spiritual energy is too weak compared to other parts of the cultivation world. I don't want to leave this world yet. I still want to stay by your side. Elsewhere, in a dark cave, a boiling cauldron was cooking soup. Zhou Fan and Mufuchu were tied up and hanging upside down. Yang Tiandong entered. Brother Zhou, are you okay? Zhou Fan angrily cursed, Pa, demon's lackey. Yang Tiandong, your master would be disappointed if he knew. Mufuchu tried to mediate, it's okay. Zhou Fan, it's not his fault. It's our bad luck that we entered

someone else's territory, and you impulsively killed their patrol demon, but they were too arrogant, calling us mere humans and demanding we kneel and beg for mercy. How could we tolerate that? The green python Great Sage asked in a grim tone, Yang Tiandong, you tell me, how should these two be dealt with, cook them, or refine them into elixirs? Yang Tiandong struggled to answer, stepfather, must we kill them? The green python Great Sage coldly said, they killed my demon soldiers, it's only just to repay life for life. Yang Tiandong, if you want to inherit my power,

you must sever ties with the human race. Demons and humans cannot coexist, this is an iron law, you cannot be indecisive. Yang Tiandong thought to himself, to hell with it, do you really think I want to be a demon? The green python Great Sage asked Yang Tiandong, so, have you made your decision? I highly recommend frying them. Yang Tiandong thought sadly, Zhou Fan, I'm sorry, we swore to die on the same day, but I never imagined it would end like this. If I had known, I would never have ventured recklessly. Originally, Yang Tiandong had set

out with a passion to make his mark. After two and a half years of hard work, he had gathered over 800 strong followers, but in one night, after encountering the green python Great Sage, it was all for naught. Due to his unique bloodline, he was then taken in as an adopted son. What did I set out for? Maybe Master was right, venturing out into the world comes at too high a price. At this moment, a small demon reported, my lord, there's a fire outside. A cultivator claiming to be Dong Wangxian from the Formless Sect is

causing havoc, seeking revenge for his master, he's too strong, we can't stop him. The green python Great Sage sneered. The Formless Sect, I have a grudge with Enlightenment Eccentric, Yang Tiandong, you stay here and watch them. Yang Tiandong was conflicted internally, should I take this opportunity to save them? Meanwhile, Dong Wangxian was shouting outside, is this all you've got? Suddenly, Dong Wangxian felt something was wrong, such a strong demonic aura, it's even more formidable than Master's. Could it be? The green python Great Sage finally appeared, daring to run wild in my territory. Are you tired

of living? You fiend! Was my master killed by you? The green python Great Sage was shocked. Oh? Enlightenment Eccentric is dead? Ahahaha! Good riddance! Truly a joyous occasion! Dong Wangxian roared. So it was green python Great Sage that Master's clues pointed to. It was you! I'll fight you to the death! The green python Great Sage laughed maniacally. Ahahaha! And what if it was? Today, I'll kill you too and make soup out of you. Meanwhile, back in the cave dwelling, Han Zhu was unaware that soon, there would be someone he might never see again. Since Xing

Hongxian left, Han Zhu had resumed his cultivation. Occasionally, Han Zhu would water the Heaven Earth grass and let it bask in the sun. Now, the spiritual energy here is denser than the demon territory where it was previously located. The Heaven Earth grass has cultivated the habit of absorbing the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth, and its growth is promising. Han Zhu looks forward to a developing spiritual intelligence. Just don't get stepped on. This remark was clearly meant for Chick. This silly chicken has grown taller than the entrance of the cave. Before long, Li Chingzhi came

for a visit, and Han Zhu immediately asked, sect leaderly, what brings you here? As the formless sect come again, Li Chingzhi shook his head, saying sadly, no, it's that the Supreme Elder is nearing his end. Han Zhu frowned in silence. The Jade Pure sect has only one Supreme Elder, who is Li Chingzhi's master and had interactions with Han Zhu before. Over the years, the Supreme Elder's cultivation has hardly increased. Naturally, his lifespan has not extended much either. Do you need me to see him? Han Zhu asked, considering the man an old acquaintance, he didn't want

to have regrets like with old Tai. Li Chingzhi shook his head. My master has already left the Jade Pure sect. Last year, he failed again in his attempt to break through to the spirit transformation realm. Coupled with the shortage of life-extending elixirs, he decided to go out in search of opportunities. He said if he does not return in twenty years, then he would be dead. He asked me to thank you, saying that without Elder Han, the Jade Pure sect would not have today's prosperity. Han Zhu remained silent. The gratitude might be sincere, but those words

clearly had another meaning. Han Zhu did not inquire further. Elder Han, although my cultivation is also improving, it feels difficult to achieve the spirit transformation. If one day I also face my end, who among the sect's disciples do you think is suitable to be the next sect leader? Li Chingzhi asked. His expression was not gloomy. Having lived so long, he had sent off many old friends and was accustomed to partings and deaths. Han Zhu shook his head. I'm in seclusion all year round. How would I know? Looking at the Jade Pure sect, the disciples with

the strongest talents are all under your tutelage. Just now, I noticed that Sun Chang'en and Murong Qi are both attempting to break through to the nascent soul. Such rapid progress is unmatched in the Jade Pure sect, except by Elder Han. If they could succeed, Han Zhu knew Li Chingzhi was trying to tie him and his disciples or grand disciples to the Jade Pure sect permanently. If either he or his disciples became sect leader, it would be even less likely for him to leave. Han Zhu seriously said, sect leader, I understand what you mean. These two

indeed have excellent talents, but one thing must be clear. If one day I wish to leave the Jade Pure sect, neither of them can keep me here. Since I was born into this world, I have only one goal in life, and that is immortality. To reach such a realm, I must be free of attachments and unaffected by karma to succeed. I can pursue this goal while helping the Jade Pure sect, but I will not give it up because of the sect. Li Chingzhi was not surprised. The main reason for choosing Murong Qi and Sun Chang'an

is their talents. Despite the Jade Pure sect's growth, there are few disciples with talents comparable to these two. Yang Tiandong was unreliable, and Su Qi is not good at management, so I never discussed this with you. So, sect leader, you had your eye on my disciples from the start. You've been planning this for a while. Li Chingzhi continued, We've been prepared for this, as the temple is too small to contain a Buddha like you. Plus, the spiritual energy of Great Swallow limits you too much. It was only a matter of time before you would leave.

We are already satisfied with the scale of the Jade Pure sect now. If you, Elder Han, wish to cut off karma to fulfill your long-cherished wish, we will not stop you. After all, you should live for yourself. Li Chingzhi's words made Han Ju feel relieved. Thank you for your understanding, sect leader. I think Murong Qi has an excellent talent. You should take him out for training. If I may ask boldly, how is my master, Ferry Xishuan's lifespan? Li Chingzhi said, Please rest assured, Elder Han. Junior sister's talent is higher than mine, and she has encountered

special opportunities over the years. Living for several hundred more years will not be a problem. After discussing the Tao for a while, Li Chingzhi bid farewell and left. I cannot help you on the path to immortality, but if we are destined to meet in the next life, I will do my best to support you. This was Han Ju's silent promise to the people of the Jade Pure sect. Seven years flew by, and the heaven-earth grass finally developed spiritual intelligence. Although it could not yet think, it was a leap in growth. To celebrate, Han Ju took

out the Book of Misfortune to curse the vermilion bird and moiling. It's been a long time since I've checked the friend circle. It's almost fading. He quickly opened the interpersonal relationships to check the messages. Your disciple Yang Tiandong, friend Zhou Fan, and friend Mufuju have been attacked by a demon king, severely injured, and are on the brink of death. Eh? How did all three of them get attacked by a demon king at the same time? Although this was old news from a few years ago, their profile pictures indicated they were still alive. Mere life-threatening dangers

were not enough to compel Han Ju to take action. At this moment, Han Ju was at the sixth layer of the Union realm. While many of his old acquaintances in the friend circle had entered reincarnation, Han Ju discovered that the Supreme Elder had ultimately passed away, which saddened him. This made him suddenly want to visit his master. After all these years, Fairy Xixuan had still been cultivating in Jade Seclusion Peak. Approaching his master's door, Han Ju hesitated. It's indeed rude not to have visited for so long. Just as he was about to knock, Fairy Xixuan's

voice came from inside. Come in. The door is unlocked. Han Ju pushed the door open, and his master was already coming to greet him. Han Ju respectfully called out, Master, Fairy Xixuan did not respond verbally. After all, addressing each other as fellow Taoist was more accurate. Her aura was more ethereal than ever, and her beauty was not enchanting, purely likable, reminiscent of a celestial fairy. As they talked, both felt melancholic discussing the Supreme Elder. Master, the spiritual energy of Jade Seclusion Peak is too scarce to improve your cultivation. Why not move to my place? I've

specifically prepared a luxurious cave dwelling for you. Han Ju suggested. Fairy Xixuan frowned. That's your territory. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to go there. In my life of ascetic cultivation, I care about very few people, and you, Master, are one of them. I don't wish to walk the long path of cultivation alone in the end. If possible, I hope to pursue the Great Tao alongside Master. If others heard Han Ju's words, they might think he was hitting on her. But Fairy Xixuan understood Han Ju. Ever since he became her disciple at Jade Seclusion Peak,

he had been devoted to ascetic cultivation and never left the Jade Pure Sect. Come on. I'll help you normally. After hesitating for a moment, Fairy Xixuan eventually agreed. Seeing such a luxurious cave dwelling, Sun Chang'en initially had some expectations. I thought this luxurious mansion was for me. Turns out Master has brought back a woman. Chick grumbled. Even I, your brother Chicken, don't have a cave dwelling, and you, a scrawny mule and a short pumpkin, want a mansion. After settling Fairy Xixuan in, Han Ju reminded her that he was just next door, and she could call

him anytime if she needed anything. At this inappropriate moment, Chick came over. Master, will Fairy Xixuan want to eat you? In the past, the Dark Prison Chicken might not have understood such things, but it certainly does now. Daring to tease its master with this, it was time for some loving discipline. During the last visit when Dong Huanxian challenged the Green Python Great Sage, Xian Zheshe, also known as Xian Qingxun's junior sister, and the person Zhou Fan and Mefujiu refer to as Lady Xian, she took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the cave dwelling and

rescued the two. By the time the Green Python Great Sage returned, it was already too late. The Green Python Great Sage could sense Xian Zheshe's realm, and did not pursue further. With nowhere to vent his anger, the Green Python Great Sage took it out on Yang Tiandong. Not long after, Yang Tiandong found an opportunity to break free from control, and planned to unite with other demon kings to deal with the Green Python Great Sage. Hearing that a new demon king named Primordial Chaos Great Sage had emerged in the northern province, Yang Tiandong's first stop was

to visit him. Upon learning that someone was seeking an audience, the Primordial Chaos Great Sage, surrounded by a host of demons, slowly made his appearance. Yang Tiandong immediately stated his purpose. I wish to join forces with you to confront the Green Python Great Sage. Afterward, we can divide his territory equally. What do you think? The demon king coldly said, I advise you to abandon this idea. The Green Python Great Sage is very tricky. There are few demons in the Ten States and Nine Dynasties that can defeat him. Yang Tiandong immediately patted his chest and stated,

Dian Su Demon King is my adoptive father, and a Slayer God Elder from the Great Swallow Jade Pure Sect is my master. With their support, our chances of victory are significant. The Demon King was taken aback upon hearing these names. Seeing that the Demon King did not respond, Yang Tiandong immediately made clear the pros and cons. You should understand the principle that if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. The Green Python Great Sage has been aggressively expanding his territory, and will eventually come for you. Now, with the formless sect besieging him and

depleting his vital forces, if you don't seize this opportunity, we'll end up as his dogs if we wait any longer. Unexpectedly, the Primordial Chaos Demon King exploded upon hearing the last sentence, say that again. Are you looking down on dogs? Before the words faded, a huge silver figure appeared in front of Yang Tiandong. This Primordial Chaos Demon King was none other than the Chaotic Heavenly Dog. Over the years, the Chaotic Heavenly Dog had lost its puppy fat, and had become very robust. At this moment, Yang Tiandong was stunned. This Demon King looked familiar. The Chaotic

Heavenly Dog was also taken aback. This fool seeking death looked familiar. Then, simultaneously, they exclaimed, it's you. The reunion of old friends turned into an argument within minutes, Doggy expressing his displeasure. I'm now called the Primordial Chaos Great Sage. Yang Tiandong scoffed. What's wrong with calling you Doggy? I used to call you that when you were a kid. Believe it or not, I'll go back and complain to our master. The Primordial Chaos Great Sage retorted, you have the nerve to seek him out? You don't even return yourself, and you have the cheek to talk about

me? Yang Tiandong felt awkward. Indeed, he was too embarrassed to return to Hanzhou. Since becoming a Demon King, the seeds of power and ambition had taken root in his heart, preventing him from resuming his previous ascetic cultivation lifestyle. Yang Tiandong said, we are from the same lineage. We should support each other. I heard you often face assassination attempts from other Demon Kings, leading a miserable life. How about this? Join me in a big venture. Let's take down the Green Python Great Sage together, and we'll split his territory. 70% for me, 30% for you. Doggy helplessly

shook his head. No, I can't beat him. Yang Tiandong encouraged, don't be afraid. I know just the two of us aren't enough. I plan to rally other Demon Kings as well. Strength in numbers. Think about all the years we've struggled to become stronger and more respectable. To make our master proud. This is our chance to return without shame. Finally, Doggy was persuaded. Alright, I'm with you. I knew Doggy was the best. Yang Tiandong said happily, call me Primordial Chaos Great Sage. Eight years later, Murong Chi had become the pride of the Jade Pure Sex Intercept,

dominating with his peak Golden Core realm strength. One day, a disciple reported that Zhou Fan and Ma Fuqiu had returned. Murong Chi asked where they were, and the disciple replied that the two went straight to the mountain for ascetic cultivation. Murong Chi sighed in relief. Then it's fine. Zhou Fan remarked, finally back. The Jade Pure Sect has changed a lot, and the spiritual energy is much denser than before. I wonder how Ma Fuqiu is doing. While Ma Fuqiu was worried about his sister, Zhou Fan was curious about Han Zhu, saying, This time, I want to

see just how powerful Han Zhu has become. Ma Fuqiu tried to dissuade him. Forget it. The Jade Pure Sect even took in the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate. Han Zhu is probably stronger than you, Zhou Fan stubbornly said. The way I see it, the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate sought refuge with the Jade Pure Sect because they were driven to desperation by the Formless Sect. The Formless Sect hasn't troubled the Jade Pure Sect, probably because their sect master met with some misfortune, delaying their plans. Ma Fuqiu agreed. That's true. Zhou Fan mockingly pointed at disciples practicing flying swords in

the sky. Really. The Jade Pure Sect might not be any stronger. Just look at those disciples over there. Ah. Who still installs railings on flying swords these days, because of a fear of heights. Zhou Fan said, See? Their strength is far inferior to that of the big sects. Xian Xueshe was sweating internally, wondering how these two couldn't see that the mountain's spiritual energy was so abundant it almost matched the hidden sacred places and ancient families. At this moment, Zhou Fan confidently shouted to Han Zhu, Brother Han, Zhou Fan is here. I'm going to beat you

until you're searching for your teeth on the ground. Outside the innate cave dwelling, Han Zhu was teaching Dark Prison Chicken and Sun Chang'en the Supreme Finger Divine Sword. Han Zhu said, Today, I'll teach you the Supreme Finger Divine Sword. Whether you can learn it depends on your fate. Watch the flow of my spiritual power, circulate it for a round, and gather the spiritual power to shoot out from the fingertip. Dark Prison Chicken said awkwardly, Master, I don't have fingers. Han Zhu thought for a moment and said, The tip of a feather will do. The chicken

excitedly shouted, Ha! Behold my ultimate wing sword, and then successfully shattered a distant rock. I did it. Han Zhu praised, Not bad, learned it in one go. From now on, it's called the ultimate tasty chicken wing. Sun Chang'en curiously asked, Master, what breed is Chicken Brother exactly? With such talent, it doesn't seem like a chicken at all. Dark Prison Chicken immediately corrected, What Chicken Brother? Call me Chicken Lord, and I've told you, I'm a phoenix. Do you really think I'm a chicken? Sun Chang'en felt speechless, Your size really doesn't do justice to a phoenix. At

that moment, Han Zhu received a system notification, detecting the strongest person within the Jade Pure sect, Xian Xueshe, at the ninth layer of the Union Realm. The Demon Lord's junior sister? Could she be my aunt-in-law? Han Zhu speculated internally. Soon, Ma Fuchu, Zhou Fan, and Xian Xueshe arrived outside the innate cave dwelling. Zhou Fan excitedly greeted, Han Zhu, long time no see. You remember me, right? Han Zhu smiled, Of course, Brother Zhou, Brother Emo. It hasn't been easy for you these years. Hearing this, Zhou Fan and Ma Fuchu's tears flowed freely. Indeed, they had been

struggling on the edge of life and death for years. Zhou Fan stubbornly said, Who says? I've lived a dashing life these years, wandering the world with my sword, filled with thrilling adventures, and I've gained quite a few opportunities. Afterward, Zhou Fan provocatively suggested a spar with Han Zhu, claiming he was now a half-step into spirit transformation. Qualified enough, he speculated Han Zhu was still stuck in the spirit transformation realm without making a breakthrough. Han Zhu didn't want to argue and told them to report to the sect leader first. Zhou Fan thought Han Zhu was afraid

of losing face and suggested they could spar quietly, even offering to take Han Zhu out for adventures. Dark prison chicken couldn't stand it anymore. Who do you think you are? A mere nascent soul daring to challenge my master. Believe it or not, Chicken Lord could slap you to death. Zhou Fan, unimpressed, said to Han Zhu, Han Zhu, your chicken is quite arrogant. Ha, what's the problem? Han Zhu, if you can't control your demonic pet, it might turn on its master. Shall I discipline it for you? Han Zhu couldn't be bothered, casually saying no objections, and

then instructed Chicken Lord, just remember not to injure him. Xian Shersher and Mafuchu could tell that the chicken was no ordinary bird, with Xian Shersher particularly curious about just how strong Han Zhu was, given even his chicken was so formidable. The cultivation of this demonic pet. Fusion Void Realm. Zhou Fan looked astonished. What does that mean? You think I can't beat it? Mafuchu reminded Zhou Fan, Zhou Fan, something's off with this chicken. Let's just let it go. We've just returned. Let's rest a few days. It won't be too late to challenge Han Zhu after we've

figured out more about him. Zhou Fan couldn't hold back. It's just a chicken. No need to be so cautious. He immediately got into position, shouted to activate his full power. His muscles swelled, and blood veins spread all over him as he threw a punch at Dark Prison Chicken. This punch has severely injured a spirit transformation before. Little chick, you should feel honored. Zhou Fan was full of pride. However, when his fist hit the chicken, only to see Dark Prison Chicken's feathers and fat tremble like cotton candy. Is that all? Chicken Lord said disdainfully. Zhou Fan

roared, unbelievable. You dare mock me? Sick chicken. If I weren't worried about offending Brother Han, I wouldn't have held back. Now, watch carefully. This is the real deal. The full-powered state. Zhou Fan gathered strength again and launched an even more ferocious strike, Explosive Shattered Demon Scale Palm. The name of the move was not only cool, but its special effects were also impressive. Indeed, the palm strike was powerful, sending Dark Prison Chicken, who weighed 20 tons, flying into the sky. Zhou Fan then unleashed a series of aerial combo attacks, gathering surging spiritual power in his knee,

and delivered an unstoppable kick to the Dark Prison Chicken. Don't hit the face when you're beating a chicken. This kick landed solidly on the face of the Dark Prison Chicken, and the anger from being mocked earlier had reddened his eyes with rage. He vented his anger with punch after punch. The air in the sky heated up from the friction. Zhou Fan suddenly lifted his leg, kicking the Dark Prison Chicken into the sky, like a meteor chicken breaking through the heavens. Outside the atmosphere, the Dark Prison Chicken felt close to the sun for the first time.

So warm. So comfortable. The Dark Prison Chicken remembered the teachings of Han Ju from his childhood. When you fight someone, assess your opponent's true level as soon as possible. Some people's strength far exceeds the realm they show, liking to play the pig to eat the tiger. So, don't expose too much strength to give your enemy an opening. Playing it safe is also good. The master is right. I need to endure a bit longer. What if Zhou Fan has more powerful moves? The fact that that girl can associate with him indicates this guy must have something

extraordinary. The Dark Prison Chicken opened its eyes in shock. Zhou Fan indeed had another powerful move, holding the Falling Star Sky Shattering Orb. He smashed it towards the Dark Prison Chicken. Stop! It was too late for Mufuchu to stop Zhou Fan. This is the ultimate move Zhou Fan used to kill a spirit transformation last time. With a loud bang, a huge explosion scattered the clouds above Ascetic Immortal Mountain, engulfing the Dark Prison Chicken in a scorching shockwave. Mufuchu, fearing Han Ju would take action, quickly explained, Zhou Fan didn't do it on purpose. But Han Ju

said indifferently, It's okay. No big deal. See that chicken? Everyone looked to the sky again. Zhou Fan was startled by the scene before him, seeing a bizarre pressure filling the sky, originating from a mass of cotton candy with a black back and a white belly. Is this all your strength? I didn't expect you to be truly weak. Boy. I, Lord Chicken, am done hiding. Let's lay it all out. You brat. Prepare to face the wrath of the Fusion Void Realm. What? Fusion Void Realm? Zhou Fan was shocked and instinctively stepped back. The Dark Prison Chicken

flapped its wings, shooting out countless sword energies from its feathers like a torrential downpour sweeping across. With the speed of the sword energy as fast as a startled swan, Zhou Fan couldn't react in time. His mind went blank, and he once again felt the breath of death. Too familiar. It's the exact same sensation of death as last time. At the brink of life and death, Zhou Fan thought of her, the love of his life, the only one he has ever loved, Lu Yao. Zhou Fan was born into a family of carpenters. The girl next door,

Lu Yao, the daughter of a landlord, was his only childhood playmate and his sweetheart. Throughout his childhood, Lu Yao was a fan of Zhou Fan, always cheering for him. Born into a carpenter's family, Zhou Fan had no talent in woodworking but was exceptionally gifted in cultivation, possessing a rare innate full spiritual power, making him one in a million. Both he and Lu Yao were selected by the Jade Pure Sect. During their days in the Outer Sect Energy Cultivation Realm, the extremely talented Zhou Fan defeated all rivals in the sect and was quickly promoted to an

inner sect disciple. He had also sworn to protect Lu Yao for life. Sister Lu Yao, I will always protect you. But the good times did not last. After entering the foundation establishment phase, Zhou Fan inexplicably could not accumulate spiritual power, causing his cultivation to stagnate. The elders tried everything but could not find the reason. Thus, the once-spirited young man fell into obscurity. Zhou Fan also dared not face the vows he made with Lu Yao. If not for Lu Yao's pleading, Zhou Fan would have been expelled from the sect long ago. His once-arrogant behavior made him

many enemies, and now in his downfall, he was constantly bullied by his fellow disciples. Every time, it was Lu Yao who protected him. Please stop bullying Zhou Fan. However, Zhou Fan's repeated self-destruction deeply hurt Lu Yao's heart. His inferiority and avoidance pushed Lu Yao further away. Stop meddling in my affairs. Get lost. Eventually, Lu Yao became someone else's bride. She accepted the proposal from Brother Yi of Sword Peak, and they were about to get married. At that moment, Zhou Fan truly felt he had lost her. Since then, Zhou Fan devoted himself to cultivation. The reason

he couldn't advance after foundation establishment was because his life's spiritual treasure was severely damaged in a previous life, constantly absorbing Zhou Fan's spiritual power for repairs. It was only today that it was finally fully repaired. Upon learning the reason, Zhou Fan gave his spiritual treasure a good beating. With the support of his life's spiritual treasure, Zhou Fan's cultivation speed surged, and he finally regained his former glory. Those who had bullied him were once again trampled under his feet. He swore to defeat all disciples of the Jade Pure sect, become the strongest in the sect, and

take back his sister Lu Yao. Until he met Han Zhu, and was utterly defeated in less than three seconds, all his hopes turned into bubbles once again. His failure made it impossible for him to keep his promise to Lu Yao, watching helplessly as she married someone else. From then on, Zhou Fan started cultivating madly, fighting with the determination to die, constantly wandering on the edge of life and death. Every time he stepped one foot into the gates of the underworld, he would think of Lu Yao again. Just like Han Zhu said, Zhou Fan is the

true protagonist in the cultivation story. Every time he faced death, he would encounter great opportunities. Finally, he inherited the tyrannical body from an ancient powerhouse. Many times, he secretly returned home, just wanting to sneak a peek at her in his heart. When he saw Lu Yao again, she was already a mother, and the boy was as adorable as Lu Yao was in her childhood. Zhou Fan also secretly approached the child, seeing him as if he was seeing his younger self. It wasn't until the child said his name was Little Fan that Zhou Fan finally realized

Lu Yao had never forgotten him. Zhou Fan didn't want to disturb their ordinary life, so he gave the child a totem he had carved himself in childhood, an ugly, strange bird. As time swiftly passes, decades are but a moment for high-level cultivators, while low-level cultivators still suffer the agony of separation and death. Lu Yao's husband died in a demonic sect invasion. Their eldest son, Little Fan, without any talent for cultivation, had also passed away. Now, Lu Yao, aged and alone, would still think of Zhou Fan. I'm sorry. I couldn't fulfill our promise. If fate allows,

see you in the next life. This time, Zhou Fan no longer hid. Time has flown. I never thought you would not find immortality after all. Lu Yao was extremely excited. Zhou Fan? Brother Zhou Fan? Zhou Fan did not say much. He only wanted to remember her at her most beautiful. Thank you for all the hardship you've endured in this life. If there is a next life, I, Zhou Fan, will serve you as your ox and horse. But in this life, I, Zhou Fan, want to try to become that ethereal immortal god. Han Ju, you are

my inner demon. In an instant, a lifetime flashed through Zhou Fan's mind. Now, he calmly awaited death. Let's stop here. A voice pulled him back from his memories. Just in the nick of time, a powerful spiritual power stood in front of him, neutralizing the sword energy from the dark prison chicken. With just one hand, Han Ju neutralized the attack of the Fusion Void Realm, and this spiritual power made Zhou Fan feel its vastness. Brother Han, what realm are you in now? Fusion Void Realm? More or less. You are indeed Brother Han. We struggled to death

to reach the nascent soul realm, and you directly reached the Fusion Void Realm. It seems I underestimated your talent. Qian Xueshe dared not say much on the side. Some truths are better left unsaid. It seems Brother Zhou hasn't recovered yet. How about we rest first, and then report to the sect leader? Alright, let's talk next time. Thinking you can beat me is still too naive. Master, how did I perform? I didn't disgrace you, did I? Unbeknownst to him, Han Ju's expression was grim. Is the Fusion Void Realm very strong? Don't say I didn't warn you.

That lady just now is a Ninth Layer Union Realm cultivator. Union Realm? Ninth Layer? She and Zhou Fan have a deep relationship. If you hurt Zhou Fan, think about the consequences. Even I might not be able to protect you. Let's review the precautions. When fighting, remember to analyze whether the enemy has a stronger existence, to avoid beating the small ones, and then facing the elder ones. Understood, Master. Meanwhile, Mefu Chu, dragging Zhou Fan, found Li Qingzi, and performed an act of asking for forgiveness, finally receiving the sect's pardon. In less than a day, the news

of Zhou Fan and Mefu Chu's return spread throughout the entire Jade Pure sect, and their legendary experiences became a topic of great interest among the younger generation. Since being defeated by a chicken, Zhou Fan had become autistic. One's inner demon can only be defeated by oneself. Zhou Fan's current state was within Mefu Chu's expectations, as Mefu Chu himself had been defeated by Han Ju. Mefu Chu said, Talent cannot be generalized. Han Ju's attainment through ascetic cultivation is just an anomaly. Xian Xueshe hesitated again. Should I tell them that Han Ju is already at the Union

Realm? At this moment, Ma Zhu learned of her brother's return, and came over happily. Hearing his sister's voice made Mefu Chu very happy. However, he was shocked to see that Ma Zhu had also reached the nascent soul realm, causing him to involuntarily spit out an amazement. How did you break through to the nascent soul so quickly? Ma Zhu said, I saw that Han Ju's progress with ascetic cultivation was fast. So I just followed and learned a bit. What's so surprising about that? Isn't it normal? Normal? You call this normal? Where is the justice in the

world? Why did I have to go out to experience hardships? Why did I have to cultivate? Mefu Chu's inner demon also emerged, driving him to jealousy. And so, the number of individuals with autism in the Jade Pure sect grew from one to two. On the other side, in the Western Abyss province, it was bustling with excitement. The top hundred sects were holding a Tao discussion conference, where cultivators from all sects gathered together to discuss the Tao of Heaven and Earth. You know, you should mingle more with the fellow Taoists regularly. It's beneficial for advancing your

realm, and also for the development of the Nine Dragons sect. You can't just isolate yourself, right? Sect leader way. Definitely next time. At this moment, a series of screams came from a distance. What's that sound? With a thud, something flew from afar and crashed to the ground. Emerging from the dust was a person, covered in wounds too terrible to behold. He was riding a giant demonic dog, also heavily injured. Isn't that disciple Yang Tiandong of Reincarnation's predecessor? It was indeed Yang Tiandong, and the chaotic heavenly dog. Huang Zuntian recognized them as disciples of Reincarnation's predecessor,

and immediately called for fellow Taoists from all sects to come to the rescue. Fellow Taoists, that dog-riding cultivator is an old acquaintance of mine. Would you be willing to join me in rescuing him? Why not? We were just looking for an opportunity to exchange cultivation techniques. Yang Tiandong! Come behind me! Yang Tiandong didn't expect so many people to be willing to save him. Shangguan Shoujian was the first to stand in front. I want to see who dares to cause trouble here. A giant figure with dark green scales covering its body slowly approached, its terrifying pressure

silencing everyone present. The newcomer was the green python Great Sage. A bunch of ants dared to block my way, seeking death. Huang Zuntian sensed the newcomer's aura and knew it was not good. But there were still those foolhardy enough to want to teach this demon a lesson. A cultivator activated a technique claimed to be capable of killing Union Realm beings and attacked the green python Great Sage. However, before his attack could land, the green python Great Sage's bone club had already struck. With a snap, the cultivator was shattered, unable to gather himself again. Damn. A

peak Union Realm demon. The crowd realized the danger too late, overestimating yourselves. Trash. Die. Huang Zuntian quickly escaped back to his own sect, gasping for air heavily. Finally back alive. I can't go out recklessly anymore, nor can I just save anyone. Recalling the events that happened, he couldn't help but shiver in fear. That green python Great Sage was too strong. In the short years he fled for his life, the green python Great Sage's power surged, starting to advance towards the human territories. He attacked human lands under the guise of hunting Yangtian Dong. Huang Zuntian couldn't

help but think of Hanju, wondering if that predecessor could withstand the green python Great Sage. Hanju was the reincarnation's predecessor. You must hold on. At the base of Ascetic Immortal Mountain, Maju, Xianjuexue, and others came to visit Hanju again. Maju, familiar with the place, warmly greeted Hanju and his disciples upon arrival. Hanju wasn't surprised to see Maju, but he was surprised that Maju was dragging along two uncolored line-drawn figures, the Daoheart-damaged Zhou Fan and Mafuchu. Hanju invited them into the cave for tea and catching up. Mafuchu thanked Hanju. If it weren't for Brother Han stopping

Maju, she might have died early on her own adventures. Mafuchu was somewhat smarter than Zhou Fan. He quickly changed the subject, immediately asking Hanju if there was any way to help him break through in his cultivation further. Hanju smiled. There is a way, but it's quite costly in terms of clothing. Mafuchu, clueless, wanted to ask more, but was stopped by a blushing Maju. Brother, stop talking. Hanju stated, the demonic technique passed down in your family has already been inherited by Maju from your ancestors. Opportunities come only once. By the way, how is Zhou Fan doing?

Looking at Zhou Fan, he had faded so much that not even his line drawing remained. Mafuchu shook his head and smiled bitterly. His mentality is usually good, and he's smart, so he should recover soon. When we were caught by the Green Python Great Sage last time, it was he who led Master Xian to appear and save us. Hearing this name, Hanju's brows furrowed instantly. Green Python Great Sage, when we were captured before, we met your disciple Yang Tiandong. He has now fully transformed into a demon. If it weren't for him taking us as his sworn

brothers and secretly helping us escape, the Green Python Great Sage would have eaten us by now. Hanju angrily slapped the table. Mafuchu thought he was angry because his disciple had transformed into a demon, but actually, it was because the kid had acknowledged another father behind Hanju's back. Mafuchu hurriedly explained, taking a sworn father was a temporary measure. Later, we heard that Yang Tiandong and the Primordial Chaos Great Sage, along with other demon kings, joined forces to besiege the Green Python Great Sage, but were completely annihilated. The Green Python Great Sage ordered a manhunt for Yang

Tiandong. The matter has caused quite a stir. Hanju covered his face and remained silent. Maju thought he was covering his face in sorrow for his disciple, not knowing that Hanju was checking the system panel. Chaotic Heavenly Dog and Yang Tiandong are constantly attacked by demonic beasts. Doggy was severely injured by a demon king and fell into the Nine Serenities Marsh. His life and death unknown. Yang Tiandong encountered an attack by a demon king, was severely injured, and accidentally encountered an ancient teleportation formation, escaping to safety. Huang Zuntian and Shengwuan Qiuqian were also severely injured by

a demon king. These people, mingling together, were still beaten so miserably. Xian Xueshe said that the Green Python Great Sage might step into the Tribulation Crossing Realm at any moment, with unfathomable cultivation, and even she couldn't match him. Even the Ninth Layer of the Union Realm can't beat the Green Python Great Sage. Such a great demon is definitely a disaster for our human race. Mafuchu continued to sigh. Every time I recall the horror of the Green Python Great Sage, I get so scared I can't sleep at night. The outside world is very dangerous. Brother Emo,

maybe you should stay in the Jade Pure Sect and cultivate in seclusion from now on. Hanju said meaningfully. Mafuchu didn't immediately refuse, considering the suggestion was coming from Hanju. Ascetic cultivation. It's not impossible. I'll think about it. Although most of the Emo family's enemies had been eliminated, and the remaining forces dared not trouble them, he and Zhou Fan, being demon cultivators, staying in the Jade Pure Sect wasn't appropriate. Upon leaving, Mafuchu said, Zhou Fan and I will go back first and wait until he adjusts. Next time, we'll come together for a drink. Definitely. Just then,

Xian Xueshe quietly drew her sword, launching a sneak attack without any regard for martial honor. With a swift somersault, she swung her sword towards Hanju in an instant. The sword swung out, tearing through the air with a whooshing sound. Despite the sword's speed, it hit nothing. Hanju had already disappeared from his spot. A streak of golden light flashed across, cutting through her throat and her beautiful head detached from her body. Yet again, Hanju used only one move. At the ninth layer of the Union Realm, that's all there is. It seems I might have a chance

against the Green Python Great Sage after all. But just to be safe, I'll first try cursing that demon king with the Book of Misfortune. If it works and he gets struck dead by the Thunder Tribulation, it would save me a lot of trouble. At this moment, the system announced, simulation trial ended. Time taken 4 seconds. Hey, hey, hey, wake up! My brother, Hanju's spiritual sense, came out of the system, just in time to see Xian Xueshe's face close to his. May I ask, Han fellow Taoist, do you have a cultivation partner? Hanju neither denied nor

nodded. Why does fellow Taoist ask such a question? He didn't point out Xian Xueshe's relationship with Xian Qingjun. Still wary of her. After all, what if Xian Qingjun was harboring some plot? It's nothing, Xian Xueshe said, shaking her head and smiling. She didn't plan to reveal her identity or that of Xian Qingjun's. Hanju thought since she asked, she must have been sent by Xian Qingjun to check on him. Could it be that demon lord's wife has discovered my new love? I can't answer. Absolutely can't answer. Xian Xueshe also remembered her sister saying her cultivation partner

was at the Spirit Transformation Realm, while Hanju was actually at the Union Realm. At this time, Ma Zhu and the others called for Xian Xueshe. Hurry up, let's go. There's a food festival at the base of Jade Pure Sect with snail noodle soup to eat. Xian Xueshe bid farewell to Hanju and turned to leave, but from beginning to end, she harbored no fond feelings towards Hanju. Hanju thought. Luckily, she didn't bump into Xing Hongxian. To this day, Hanju still didn't understand why Xian Qingjun chose him as a cultivation partner. The ways of the cultivation world's

fate are indeed strange. Within a demon king's cave in the mountains, the bulky green python Great Sage sat on his throne, puzzled about why he kept feeling the interference of a curse in his cultivation recently. In front of him boiled a large pot with soup, within which bones could be vaguely seen. If not for this spiritual treasure isolating it, I might have succumbed to this curse. It seems it's time to break through to the Tribulation Crossing Realm. If I delay further, problems might arise. At that moment, a hawk demon reported, Your Majesty, Yang Tiandong has

fled into the Ancient Origin Province. Should we continue the pursuit? Green python Great Sage's expression darkened. Of course. Even if he flees to the ends of the earth, I will hunt him down until I tear him apart. He attacked me in conjunction with outsiders, despite my treating him like my own son. It provided me with a perfect excuse to expand my territory, spread my orders. Yang Tiandong is a patricidal ingrate. All our demon race must exterminate him on sight, and any sect that dares to shelter him will be massacred. As he spoke, another wave of

the curse hit, but once again it was blocked by the treasure in his hand. It turns out Han Zhu was cursing green python Great Sage again from within his cave. However, despite numerous attempts, the system gave Han Zhu no feedback, leaving him uncertain if the curse was effective. Feels like I'm cursing in vain. Han Zhu browsed through his social circle, noticing that Yang Tiandong had only been attacked by beasts recently, without any pursuit from green python Great Sage. Could it be that old monster is hiding away for a breakthrough? After all, I haven't fought someone

at the Tribulation Crossing Realm yet. If Yang Tiandong really has nowhere else to go, he'll definitely return to Jade Pure Sect. If green python Great Sage follows him here, I'll have to face him. Han Zhu took a deep breath. If we can't beat it, we probably can't escape either. The only way now is to cultivate and level up. Green python Great Sage on the other side was thinking the same thing, hurrying to Tribulation Cross. Once this king steps into the Tribulation Crossing Realm, let alone the life and death of that beast, even the human world

under heaven will all be this king's territory. At this time, inside the northern province, the monster-taming demon sect was actually gone, leaving only ruins and corpses. In the ruins, a man was standing there dumbfounded. What happened? They're all dead? After the demon lord left, Su Qi found an opportunity to escape from the valley. After that, Su Qi had been cultivating in seclusion, and after breaking through to the nascent soul realm, he found a chance to return to the monster-taming demon sect. But after returning to the monster-taming demon sect, those disciples who used to look down

on him began to target him again. Unable to bear it any longer, Su Qi killed those disciples. The sect elder was furious and imprisoned him in the dungeon of the monster-taming demon sect, subjecting him to torture every day. I haven't seen anyone in months. The restrictions on the dungeon have failed. It turns out they're all dead. He suddenly thought of a possibility. Could it be that master took action? But why didn't master rescue me from this hellish place? Wait, with the monster-taming demon sect wiped out, doesn't that mean I can go back? I understand now.

Master wants me to experience more trials on my way back. Having figured it out, Su Qi felt enlightened and at ease. He continued to wander in the ruins of the monster-taming demon sect's gate, to see if there were any treasures left behind. If there were any survivors, he would definitely finish them off. After all, he hated the monster-taming demon sect to the bone. After a while, Su Qi searched to a set of ruins. Holy shit, there really is a survivor. In the ruins, there was an old man. He was thin, his robes dirty and disheveled,

standing like a corpse in the ruins of the monster-taming demon sect. His eyes lifeless. Are you also a disciple of the monster-taming demon sect? The old man asked tremblingly. May I ask who you are, sir? The old man sighed and said, I was also a disciple of the monster-taming demon sect once, but I was expelled by my master for making a mistake. In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed. I wanted to come back and take a look, but I didn't expect the entire sect to be annihilated. This is bad. Could this

old thing be trying to re-establish the monster-taming demon sect? No. I have to take the initiative and kill him first. Su Qi couldn't stay in this ghostly place for a moment longer. As he spoke, Su Qi mobilized his demonic energy behind the old man, preparing to unleash his full nascent soul power in one strike. The old man continued, I used divine ability to search for days and nights, but couldn't find my master's corpse. I finally achieved tribulation crossing and wanted to resolve my lingering regrets before ascending, but now there is no chance. Tribulation crossing realm?

Su Qi was so scared he almost stopped breathing. The old man turned his head and stared at Su Qi. Then did you find my master's corpse? He still had no expression. A tribulation crossing realm cultivator couldn't possibly not notice that Su Qi had mobilized demonic energy, clearly pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger. Su Qi couldn't contain the tenfold power he had gathered and could only unleash it towards the ruins in front. Good child, thank you for cremating the deceased disciples of the demon sect for me. If it's all burnt, how am I

supposed to find my master? I forgot to introduce myself. I'm called Ducu, and you, I'm called Su Qi. Since the last time he secluded himself to prepare to battle Green Python Great Sage, Han Zhu had a set it cultivated for another seven years, and now he had stepped into the seventh layer of the union realm. Chick ate and slept stupidly every day, getting fatter by an entire circle, almost breaking the Fusang tree. The spiritual energy produced by Sun Chang'an was even better than before, nourishing the gourd vine to the point it had already borne Earth

Immortal Gourds. Xishuan Fairy, borrowing the spiritual energy of Ascetic Immortal Mountain, was about to step into spirit transformation. At present, everything was developing in the direction Han Zhu hoped for. He opened the system panel to see what happened in these seven years. Xiu Fan's Tao Heart was gradually recovering, and he started fighting and killing again. Last time when they came back, they Ascetic cultivated in Jade Pure sect for a year, but still left in the end. Xiu Fan wanted to continue going out to gain experience. When I come back, I'll deep fry that chicken. After

all, Ascetic cultivation and longevity only belonged to a minority. Bravely throwing oneself into the prosperity and strife of the human world was their final destination when he saw what happened to Su Qi. Even Han Zhu's jaw dropped. The monster-taming demon sect is completely gone. Su Qi. Oh Su Qi. To be able to destroy an entire top-tier sect by yourself. I'm going to frame your photo and offer incense to you every day. You're much more useful than my shitty book of misfortune. Just as he was thinking, a cold voice sounded from behind. Husband, I'm back. Xing

Hongxuan's pretty brows were tightly knitted. Not at all as happy as she usually was when she returned. Why is madam so downcast? Were you bullied outside? Xing Hongxuan's eyes instantly filled with tears. I'm sorry. Husband, it's really too chaotic out there. I didn't bring you back any treasures. Gifts and such don't matter. Your husband has money. As long as you come back safely, that's good. The injuries on your body aren't serious, right? Who would have thought Han Zhu could be so gentle? Xing Hongxian instantly blushed. Husband, you should pay more attention to the outside world.

A demon called Green Python Great Sage appear out of nowhere, rampaging through the human world under the pretext of hunting down traitorous sons. Do you think he will attack our Great Swallow? It's said that even Formless Sect's Enlightenment Eccentric died at his hands. If even Formless Sect can't beat him, it seems that demon is indeed formidable. Han Zhu didn't dare say that Enlightenment Eccentric's death was his doing. Han Zhu hugged Xing Hongxian with a pat. Don't worry, wife. If he comes to attack Jade Pure Sect, if I can't beat him, I'll take you and run.

Hearing this, Xing Hongxuan's heart was instantly delighted. Am I that important in husband's heart? Of course. Wife is the most important. Xing Hongxian smiled so wide she couldn't close her mouth. Then I'm at ease. At ease? At ease about what? Are you sure I'm your one and only in this life? Xing Hongxian continued to question. Of course. Han Zhu also replied with certainty. Really? Let me ask again. Of course. What else? When I came back, I discovered an additional cave residence nearby, even more luxurious than mine. What cave residence do you think it is? Shit.

Not good. There's killing intent. Han Zhu said with a straight face. It's Xixuan Fairy's. I invited her over to make it convenient for her to cultivate. Oh, is it cultivation or dual cultivation? Don't talk nonsense. She's my master. Only a master-disciple relationship. Xing Hongxuan's sharp gaze could no longer be hidden. Han Zhu froze. His mind could no longer search for an answer. Husband, I'm asking you a question. What to do? Waiting online anxiously. Green Python Great Sages might have already blown to the Great Swallow Territory. All the sects were very panicked. In their eyes, Formless

Sect was previously invincible. They didn't expect another Great Demon to pop out who could single-handedly crush Formless Sect. How could they not be panicked? Almost all the sects sent people rushing to Jade Pure Sect to contact Li Qingzi. They knew that even if they joined forces, they would not be able to resist Green Python Great Sage. So they all hoped to come and gain the protection of Jade Pure Sect. Li Qingzi pacified the various sects to remain calm for now. He had already sent people to various states to gather information. Even if the Demon Army

set out now, it would take several years to reach Great Swallow. Moreover, the Demon Army would inevitably pass through only because province. The only because dynasty's strength far surpassed Great Swallow's. So it was estimated they would stall the Demon Army for some time. Only because province has the most Union Realm experts. As long as Green Python Great Sage isn't Tribulation Crossing Realm, he'll likely be stuck there. The various sect leaders, upon hearing this, told this ominous speaker to shut up quickly. Because according to Nine Dragon Sect's secret report, Green Python Great Sage's cultivation had already

reached the peak of Union Realm Ninth Layer and could Tribulation Cross and advance at any time. Instantly, the representatives of the various sects fell into another dead silence of despair. Speaking of which, inside the Innate Cave Residence, Han Zhu was still being interrogated by his wife. Husband, do you think Master Disciple feelings are true feelings? Han Zhu was already speechless. This woman had been nagging for a whole month. He couldn't let her be so jealous anymore. Han Zhu waved his hand. Wait, don't say it. While we men are in the world, it's normal to have

three wives and four concubines. Look at those elders in the sect, which one doesn't have several cultivation partners? Not to mention I, Han Zhu, only have you right now, so you should know your own importance. Although in the future I may also have other cultivation partners, if you let me decide who to marry as the main wife first, I will definitely choose you first. Han Zhu said these words with great righteousness, not knowing if it could fool her. Xing Hongxian, upon hearing this, instantly became joyfully excited and changed her attitude. I don't oppose you having

three wives and four concubines. You'd better find a few more. In the future when you're in seclusion cultivating, I'll have companions too. So where are you going to bring the little sisters back? I can't wait to get close with them. Han Zhu smiled and didn't dare respond. Who knows if this woman was really trying to trap him. Han Zhu's conversation with the two of them shocked the two fat men eavesdropping outside. It's good to be a cultivator. If this were an ordinary family, it would be a scene of carnage. Afterwards, Xing Hongxian began to get

mischievous. Husband, I've thought about it. This dual cultivation is also a kind of cultivation. Come on, this time you have to be more invested, more rough. The two fat men didn't expect an additional surprise. But they heard Han Zhu's voice coming from inside the cave residence. Supreme Finger Divine Sword. With a boom, an absolute sword energy broke through the wall, scaring the two people outside into a flurry. You little brats. You even dare to eavesdrop at your master's walls? After cultivating for a month, Xing Hongxian left the cave residence. Husband, I'm leaving first. You cultivate

well. Han Zhu's face was haggard, and he didn't make a sound. This green python great sage is coming aggressively. I need to break through to the 8th layer of the Union Realm as soon as possible. But first, I need to make up for what I've lost. From then on, Han Zhu began to cultivate in seclusion. In a flash, three more years passed. Han Zhu was awakened by a voice, a girl's voice calling for her master, apart from himself. Where did the woman in the cave residence come from? Han Zhu took his sword and came to

the side of the pool, and found that the voice was coming from the heaven-earth grass. Seeing Han Zhu, the heaven-earth grass excitedly called out to its master. What demon dares to become a spirit and seduce me in the form of a woman? Han Zhu pointed his sword at the heaven-earth grass, scaring the grass into crying. The heaven-earth grass said with grievance that its memories were recovering, and the memories of countless previous reincarnations were slowly coming back. A blade of grass actually has countless reincarnations. Could this guy be an immortal in disguise? The heaven-earth grass said

that in the past. It had another master who sat beside it for a very, very long time. Only then did Han Zhu understand that it was the immortal energy from the immortal's meditation that had caused this blade of grass to shed its moral form. Han Zhu used his spiritual sense to feel the aura of the heaven-earth grass. It wasn't strong. He could still easily step on it to death. The heaven-earth grass said that in countless reincarnations, it was eaten by demons, burned to death by fire, and drowned by water, but it always revived. Wildfire cannot

burn it out. The spring breeze blows, and it grows again. The system had previously indicated that this heaven-earth grass had lived for at least tens of thousands of years. A wild grass soul of tens of thousands of years old. Who would believe it if you said it? The heaven-earth grass then asked Han Zhu. Now you are my second master. Will you abandon me? With the life and death tribulation approaching, I'm afraid it will implicate you, master. Han Zhu laughed. No. From now on, no matter where I go, I will take you with me. In this

life, I, Han Zhu, will protect you. The heaven-earth grass said coquettishly. Master is so good. At the same time, Han Zhu also received a system notification. The heaven-earth grass has developed good feelings for you. Your favorability is five stars. Being liked by a blade of grass. This feeling is so strange. In the ruins of the Formless Sect, three figures were standing silently. Xiu Fan, Mefu Chu, and Xian Xueshe traveled here, sighing that even the once-powerful Formless Sect could not escape the fate of sect annihilation. Looking out, countless demons cover the sky on the mountain peak.

An extremely shocking scene. Xiu Fan frowned. Why are Green Python Great Sage's demon soldiers increasing so quickly? The demon race has always been suppressed by the human race. Now that Green Python Great Sage has appeared as a hope, naturally they come flocking. After leaving Great Swallow, no matter where they went, there were Green Python Great Sage's demon soldiers everywhere, as if all the demons in the world had already pledged allegiance to Green Python Great Sage. In the distance, the vast demon army formed a huge circle, as if guarding something. It's that Green Python Great Sage

who wants to Tribulation Cross. If he successfully passes the Thunder Tribulation, he will be the only Tribulation Crossing Realm powerhouse of the demon race. Reaching the Tribulation Crossing Realm allows one to ascend to the Upper Realm. So there are very few Tribulation Crossing Realm experts in the world. As for Mahayana Realm cultivators who can suppress Tribulation Crossing Realm experts, they are even rarer. Xiu Fan asked in Puzzlement, if Tribulation Crossing allows ascension, why is there still Mahayana? It's already not easy for ordinary cultivators and demons to cultivate to the Fusion Void Realm. Reaching the Union

Realm is a 1 in 10 chance of survival. If you want to go even higher, you have to bet on opportunities. If you're lucky enough to pass the Thunder Tribulation and achieve Tribulation Crossing Realm, there's almost no room for further improvement. After all, at this level, opportunities and resources are no longer of much use. So most Tribulation Crossing Realm experts choose to directly ascend. But there are always some people with great luck and peerless talents in the world. Even after reaching the Tribulation Crossing Realm, they can still continue to cultivate in the mortal world. I

have a senior sister who is a Demon Lord of the current era. She is already a Mahayana Realm Cultivator, but she is still making progress and has not chosen to ascend. Unlike me, although I'm only one step away from the Tribulation Crossing Realm, it is as difficult as crossing a chasm. Xiu Fan listened, also feeling his blood boil, declaring that he also wanted to be a Mahayana Cultivator who did not ascend. Mefutu looked at him with disdain and said, you should defeat Chick first before saying that. Green Python Great Sage is ambitious. I'm afraid the

human race of the Ten Continents and Nine Dynasties is about to face a catastrophe of annihilation. Let's go. I'll take you to the Overseas. Mefutu worriedly said, will Jade Pure Sect be in trouble? Xian Xueshe didn't say anything, just shook her head. The others didn't understand what she meant. Brother Mo, we've already informed the sect leader about the matter of Green Python Great Sage. Let's hope Brother Han can take good care of Junior Sister Mo and the others. In the face of such a mighty force, we ourselves are just clay bodhisattvas. Having said that, the

three of them turned into a golden light and disappeared into the sky. Another seven years passed. Han Zhu woke up from seclusion again, only feeling that his eyes were shrouded in fog. How did my cave residents also get smog? However, this was not smog, but abundant spiritual energy. Han Zhu probed around and found that the source of the spiritual energy came from the Heaven-Earth Grass. This little thing hadn't grown much taller, but had already begun to generate spiritual energy. No wonder it has the potential of an immortal. Its spiritual intelligence was just born not long

ago, and it can already generate spiritual energy. However, the richness far surpasses Sun Chang'an, since it can already communicate with the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth. Should I pass on some cultivation techniques to it? If I pass it on, maybe in the future it can become a great force for me. But what if Heaven-Earth Grass betrays me in the future? I need to leave some contingencies. In order to be on the safe side, Han Zhu pretended to pat the Heaven-Earth Grass, but actually imprinted the Six Paths Ultimate Seal on it. What cultivation techniques should

I pass on to you? Han Zhu's storage ring was full of cultivation techniques, so it was difficult to choose in a short time. In the end, he chose the Jade Purity Art. This was Jade Pure Sex's signature cultivation technique. After being perfected by Nine Cauldron True Person, it could now be cultivated up to the Fusion Void Realm. Han Zhu instructed Heaven-Earth Grass to study and cultivate well from now on. In order to cultivate its enthusiasm for learning, Han Zhu chose to accompany it. He also took out the Book of Misfortune to lead by example. Let's

study hard and make progress every day. The power of the curse penetrated the innate cave residents, reaching far to a place shrouded in clouds and thunderstorms. It was deafeningly loud here, as if the end of the world had arrived. Terrifying heavenly lightning struck the green luminous scales one after another, stirring up gusts of gale as the hundred-meter-long demon figure twisted crazily in the thunderbolts weighing tens of thousands of pounds. It turned out that Green Python Great Sage was Tribulation Crossing. Just at this moment, it suddenly felt the power of the curse arriving again, causing the

heavenly lightning to change. The white lightning turned into purple lightning, and the heavenly tribulation upgraded. Green Python Great Sage resisted the continuous upgrading of the purple lightning. If it were anyone else, they would have been blown to ashes long ago. With the ultimate strike of the heavenly lightning, Green Python Great Sage was blasted to the bottom of the lake. A golden bonestaff soared out. Green Python Great Sage grabbed the bonestaff and held it over its head. This magic weapon absorbed the tens of thousands of pounds of lightning for it, making Green Python Great Sage's difficulty

in Tribulation Crossing much smaller. This king will use the power of the magic weapon and heavenly tribulation to deduce today and see which little rat is causing mischief. Green Python Great Sage activated its technique to deduce the Heaven's Dow, using the power of the bonestaff magic weapon to trace the source of the curse. However, in the end, the deduction technique could not withstand the power of the curse. A violent explosion occurred in the air, rebounding and causing Green Python Great Sage to spit out a mouthful of blood. Damn little rat, why can't I deduce it?

Should I tribulation cross in advance? I will definitely pull you out. Green Python Great Sage, relying on the bonestaff, continued to resist the purple lightning thunder tribulation. Spiritual power and the tens of thousands of pounds of lightning crazily collided, stirring up enormous waves on the lake's surface. Then, Green Python Great Sage was heard chanting, Thunder tribulation, break! The last world-destroying power completely enveloped Green Python Great Sage. When the dust settled, Green Python Great Sage's figure appeared again. It had finally successfully tribulation crossed and officially stepped into the tribulation crossing realm. Terrible demon energy rampaged between

Heaven and Earth, shaking the mountains and the Earth. The little eagle demon quickly spread the good news throughout the demon army. From now on, this king is the true demon saint. You little rats of the human world, I will make you taste the most painful torment. Orders were sent to the demon kings in all directions to begin a full-scale attack on the human race, disregarding casualties. Within the next ten years, the demon army quickly swept across the various states, unstoppable. The human cultivators were routed, and the common people became food for the demon race. In

this situation, a golden light flashed by. An overbearing aura instantly swept a hundred miles in all directions, causing all the Heaven-Earth grass on Ascetic Immortal Mountain to tremble. It seems that Master has advanced again. In these six years, Han Zhu and his disciples each cultivated on their own. Sun Chang'an began to miss his disciple Morong Qi again and planned to go down the mountain to visit him. Don't go! He's not in the sect right now. Sun Chang'an turned his head and saw that Han Zhu had come out of seclusion. In six years' time, Han Zhu

had broken through to the eighth layer of the Union Realm. If you go down the mountain now, you will definitely be eaten by demons. I have deduced that Morong Qi is fine now. With his extraordinary luck, he will definitely turn danger into safety when encountering matters. In fact, Han Zhu had already checked the friend circle. The outside world had already fallen into complete chaos. Sun Chang'an had no choice but to give up. He turned to look at Chick. At this time, Chick also woke up from its dream. Wait! Master! Doggy has been out for so

long and hasn't come back. Could it be dead outside? Don't worry! It's not dead yet, but it gets beaten up every day. Master! I think that Green Python Great Sage will definitely attack sooner or later. Why don't we take the heavenly materials and earthly treasures of Jade Pure sect and run away first? Han Zhu raised his eyebrows and said, Could it be that the Green Python Great Sage has come to kill us? Li Qingzi said breathlessly, Not yet, but the ancient origin province is already on the verge of falling. The Green Python Great Sage's demon

army has exceeded one million in the surrounding Western Abyss province and only because province are all in a bitter battle. I'm afraid it won't be long before they reach our great swallow. According to the reports from the Disciples of the Morning Sun Division, that Green Python Great Sage has already broken through to the Tribulation Crossing Realm. And not only that, there are already over a hundred demon kings under his command who have reached the Union Realm and Fusion Void Realm. This time, can you still just say it directly if you want to exhaust me to

death? Before Li Qingzi could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Han Zhu. After all, with so many demon kings on the enemy's side, he himself felt unsure. Han Zhu suddenly reacted, Why aren't the human cultivation world joining hands? What about the promised shared destiny of humanity? Li Qingzi expressed helplessly, Currently, none of the nine dynasties in the ten provinces have a Great Cultivator at the Tribulation Crossing Realm. So no one has been able to take the lead. Not even one? The human race is really weak. Two years ago, there was a rumor that a Great

Cultivator at the Tribulation Crossing Realm appeared in the Ancient Origin province, but as soon as he showed his face, he was beaten half to death by the Green Python Great Sage. Now all the provinces are trembling in fear, and many sects have been forced to migrate. The Green Python Great Sage is indeed the strongest in the history of the demon race. In terms of both strength and physical defense, the demon race is inherently stronger than the human race, and their abilities at the same level are far superior to human cultivators. For so many years, the

human race has been able to suppress the demon race by relying on their numerical advantage. With the emergence of a Tribulation Crossing Realm demon sage, it means that the human race's human seed tactic is no longer useful. Based on the current situation, only a Mahayana realm powerhouse can suppress the Green Python Great Sage. Elder Han, I don't know if you have the confidence this time. If not, let's prepare to flee overseas early. Our Jade Pure sect. No need. These words from Han Zhu shocked everyone present. Let all the disciples who are out come back. This

time, there's no need to flee. Holy shit, you mean you can deal with it? The chick and Sun Changan thought their master had a plan, but Li Qingzi thought Han Zhu was joking. We should hurry and seek refuge with the ancestor. He's been beaten up a lot lately, too. Seek refuge with him? Han Zhu asked. Ha, often? How does Elder Han know that the ancestor is often beaten? I can deduce it. Besides, can we avoid the Green Python Great Sage's demon army along the way? Just then, the long-lost system message came again. You have the

following choices. 1. Agree with the sect leader and flee with the Jade Pure sect, and you can obtain a spiritual treasure. 2. Agree with the sect leader and choose to stay and wait for the Green Python Great Sage, and you can obtain a Heaven's Dow Spirit Stone. Li Qingzi pondered for a long time. Indeed, there is no way to avoid the demon army. All the forces surrounding Great Swallow are fighting bitterly with the demon army. No matter where we go, we will encounter demons. Even if they don't belong to the Green Python Great Sage, they

will also turn against us and attack us. Now there is basically no place that is peaceful. Chick and Sun Changan also shook their heads. Anyway, we will encounter the demon army wherever we go, so we might as well stay and fight. Call all the disciples to stay in the sect and not go out. Those who are still outside must rush back to the sect as soon as possible. I don't want to go out and save people everywhere when the Green Python's army is at our doorstep. Li Qingzi thought to himself, could it be that Elder

Han really has the confidence? After all, he never fights an unprepared battle. Okay, I will go and give orders according to your instructions. Now we just need to wait here. When the time comes, we will first kill the invading Green Python Great Sage, and the remaining demon kings will naturally be scared out of their wits. Han Zhu didn't care about the fate of other sects in the cultivation world. As long as the Jade Pure sect still exists, what does it matter if the world is destroyed? Han Zhu didn't want to be a savior. Besides, the

Green Python Great Sage couldn't possibly slaughter the entire human race. Han Zhu had encountered more than one Mahayana realm cultivator. At this time, the system reward arrived. You refused the sect leader and chose to stay. You obtained a Heaven's Tao Spirit Stone. With the name of Heaven's Tao, it must not be an ordinary object. Indeed, what an exquisite brick. Seeing their master take out a brick out of thin air, Chick and Sun Changan were puzzled. Could it be that master wants to use a brick to deal with the Green Python Great Sage? The Heaven's Tao

Spirit Stone contains the power of Heaven's Tao. When integrated with a magic weapon, it can upgrade the magic weapon by one grade. Being able to upgrade the grade of magic weapons, this thing is really awesome. Which one should I integrate it with? The previous curse on the Green Python Great Sage seemed to have no effect. Even if it is upgraded by one realm, it's not realistic to curse it to death. Not to mention the power. I can't even figure out whether there is a delay in the curse now. He could arrive at the doorstep of

the Jade Pure sect at any time. It's better to increase the lethality first. It would be best if it could instantly kill him after the enhancement. No more gambling. Primordial Judgment Sword. Integrate. However, the system actually sent out an alarm prompt. The Primordial Judgment Sword cannot be upgraded by the Heaven's Tao Spirit Stone. Please choose another magic weapon. What? It can't be enhanced by the power of Heaven's Tao. Just now, Hanju couldn't detect the Spirit Stone with his spiritual sense. This is most likely due to the effect of Heaven's Tao power. Anything that touches Heaven's

Tao is extraordinary. The Primordial Judgment Sword was his innate magic weapon. Although it couldn't exert power beyond his current realm, its upper limit was still unknown. From this, Hanju inferred that the Primordial should be higher than Heaven's Tao. Let's keep the Heaven's Tao Spirit Stone for now. Seeing Hanju rummaging around and finally throwing away the brick, Chick and Sun Chang'en said, Master finally understands that a brick can't solve the problem. Hanju planned to contemplate the way of the sword again. I wonder if that person is still waiting in the way of the Sword River. After

Hanju's spiritual sense entered the way of the Sword River, the sky of the Ten Provinces continent once again showed anomalies. Purple light covered the sky and sun, and even the earth was dyed purple. Everyone knew that someone had comprehended the ancient way of the sword again. Hanju's consciousness had already entered the way of the Sword River, and he didn't know how many steps he could take today. Just as he was about to take a step, a figure suddenly appeared. Why is it you again? The figure said furiously. Hanju was even more speechless. This guy has

a problem, guarding here day and night. Hanju suppressed his anger and said humbly, Senior, I have encountered a life and death enemy. Can you let me take one more step? Just one step? The figure said impatiently. You have already comprehended the Taiyi Divine Ability and Sword Intent. Who in the mortal world can you not defeat, unless there is a large gap in realm between you and your opponent, right? Hanju inhaled and said, Junior indeed encountered an enemy whose realm far exceeds mine. I originally wanted to visit Senior after ascending and thanked Senior for the previous

reminder. It seems I may die on the path of cultivation. What a pity! The figure fell silent. After a while, the figure slowly said, Then you may go ahead. This is your choice. Don't blame me for not warning you of the consequences. With that, he stepped aside. Hanju's consciousness followed and advanced. At this point, he could only fight with his back against the wall. He wanted to see if he could comprehend the three pure worlds' extermination to be stronger. The further he walked, the stronger he could become. Taking a step forward, Hanju suddenly felt a

terrifying pressure, as if carrying hundreds of chicks on his back, almost making him gasp for breath. Is this the power beyond Tai? Hanju gritted his teeth and persisted. I must not stop here. Two steps. The figure remained silent, watching Hanju move forward in pain. Hanju was in so much pain that his consciousness became blurred, and he barely took three steps. No wonder Senior didn't let me advance last time. Just one step and my soul body is on the verge of collapse. As soon as he finished speaking, a hand stretched out from the front and gently

pushed on his chest. Immediately, he felt the world spinning, and his consciousness fell from the way of the Sword River. Young one, if there is a next time, I will not save you again. The figure's cold snort entered Hanju's ears. You have such comprehension before reaching the Tribulation Crossing realm, which is truly rare. I look forward to your future achievements. Go back. Chick and Sun Chanin saw that Hanju had been motionless for a while. Could it be that Master doesn't have the confidence? Before the words fell, a violent explosion suddenly occurred, and a beam of

light shot straight into the sky. Even the heaven-earth grass in the cave felt the anomaly. In an instant, a terrifying aura permeated the ascetic Immortal Mountain. Hanju's consciousness followed and returned to his physical body. He quickly circulated his energy to stabilize his primordial spirit. After returning from the way of the Sword River, Hanju immediately started a simulated trial and fought against Xian Xueshe. Just by walking three more steps forward, Hanju felt that the three pure worlds' extermination had been significantly enhanced. Hanju waved his sword, and millions of sword shadows converged and pointed at Xian Xueshe.

Before the simulated opponent could react, she was directly annihilated along with his soul. At this time, the system also sent a prompt. Simulated battle ended. Time taken. 2 seconds. Hanju smiled with satisfaction. It's also an instant kill, but this time it's obviously faster and more thorough. He had more confidence in instantly killing the Green Python Great Sage. Although he had confidence, Hanju still didn't dare to be careless. He took out the Book of Misfortune and continued to curse the Green Python Great Sage. At this time, in the woods not far from the Jade Pure Set,

a man covered in wounds fled into the territory of Great Swallow through a teleportation formation. This person was none other than Yang Tiandong. But Doggie couldn't escape back with him. I couldn't bring back Doggie. How am I going to explain it to Master? At this moment, a black mist appeared behind Yang Tiandong. Why don't you keep running? Ever since successfully crossing the Tribulation, the black mist incarnation of the Green Python Great Sage had been following Yang Tiandong, and he couldn't shake it off no matter where he ran. No matter where you run, this sage will

catch you. At that time, I will skin you and pull out your tendons, slice you into sashimi piece by piece. I will let you know what it means to be in utter despair in the human world. With that, the black mist dissipated. Yang Tiandong observed the surroundings and finally felt a sense of familiarity. Should I return to the Jade Pure Set or not? Yang Tiandong wasn't worried about himself, but he was afraid of implicating Hanju. In these years, he had been in a state of serious injury, and it was useless no matter where he fled.

Initially, he formed an alliance with more than 300 demon kings, imagining that they could work together to deal with the Green Python Great Sage. Who knew that in the end, he still implicated many demon kings, who were all killed by the Green Python Great Sage one by one, and he himself didn't know whether it was the blessing of luck. But he was able to escape the pursuit and killing every time. Looking back on his years of efforts, Yang Tiandong felt like it was a joke. All the demon kings from various places had died. If I

go back to the Jade Pure Set now, will it bring disaster to Master and the others? Forget it. I can't bring disaster to Master. This is the only thing I can do for Master. I have no face to face the elders. Just as Yang Tiandong was about to turn around and leave, a familiar voice came. You've already reached the doorstep of home, and you're still not coming back? Yang Tiandong was stunned. It was Master. Do you still want to go out and fool around? Could it be that you really want to be a son to

the Green Python Great Sage? Yang Tiandong suddenly wanted to cry. He knelt down with a thud. Master, your disciple knows his mistake. Yang Tiandong knew that Master still cared about him. But back then, he cried and shouted, wanting to go out and make a name for himself. At that time, Han Ju told him not to go out, but he refused to listen. Now, it's great. He only thought of coming back when he was on the verge of death. Your disciple shouldn't have disobeyed your words back then. The outside world is too terrifying. Stop crying. Go

down the mountain and kowtow for five years, shouting a thousand times a day that you were wrong. This scene was seen by the bird demons who had pursued him. The stone tablet says Great Swallow Jade Pure Sect. Hurry back and tell His Holiness. At this moment, a flash of golden light was seen on the ascetic immortal mountain, and a sword energy pierced through the two bird demons, reducing them to pulp. Entering the territory of the Jade Pure Sect, Han Ju naturally received a system prompt. I didn't expect the two little demons who came to deliver

the message to be at the nascent soul realm. Being able to fly here means that the Green Python's army is not far from here. It's time to make some preparations for the great battle. In the following period of time, the Jade Pure Sect was a scene of busyness. But Han Ju was still cultivating as usual and being leisurely. The disciples of the Jade Pure Sect returned to the sect one after another, and Murong Chi also came back. After fishing and catching shrimp every day, Chick and Sun Chanan would come and take a look at Yang

Tiandong, who was kneeling at the foot of the mountain. Murong Chi had never seen Yang Tiandong before, so he also came over to join in the fun. He saw someone kowtowing and chanting your disciple knows his mistake over and over again at the foot of the ascetic immortal mountain. Murong Chi asked Sun Chanan, Master, what mistake did this junior brother make to be punished by Master to kneel here? Sun Chanan hurriedly covered his mouth, Don't talk nonsense, he is your senior uncle. What? Senior uncle? But why is he only at the nascent soul stage? Chick

also looked at him with disdain. It seems that doggy hanging out with him shouldn't be that strong either. Long time no see. How does it feel to mix outside? Have you ever encountered my doggy? Fat Chicken deliberately asked. Just wanting to see Yang Tiandong make a fool of himself. Yang Tiandong almost couldn't recognize Chick, this heavy aura and physique. Chick, is that you? How did you become so fat? With your cultivation, you still dare to speak disrespectfully. Go feed the fish for Chicken Lord. During the day, Yang Tiandong would kneel and kowtow to admit his

mistake, and at night, he would eat, drink and have fun with Chick and Sun Chanan. Yang Tiandong was very shocked by the cultivation of Sun Chanan and Murong Chi. Even his master's grand disciple was about to break through to the nascent soul realm. Yang Tiandong asked doubtfully, you guys reached this realm just by ascetic cultivation under master's guidance, without ever tempering yourselves outside? Sun Chanan said that the spiritual power here far surpassed the outside world, so there was no need to go out and take risks. Yang Tiandong became hysterical. What's the point of tempering outside

all these years? As the eldest senior brother, I dragged everyone down. My strength didn't improve, but I recognized quite a few fathers. I, Yang Tiandong, am simply a disgrace to the sect. However, going out to temper myself was not entirely fruitless. Doggy is now at the spirit transformation realm. Chick, oh Chick, when it comes back, it will definitely challenge you. Chick didn't bother with him and just let out a contemptuous oh. Yang Tiandong continued to babble, we're from the same sect, so Doggy will definitely hold back when sparring. Murong Chi felt very awkward. He transmitted

his voice to Sun Chanan. Master, should we tell him about Chick and Lord's cultivation? Sun Chanan said, forget it, let him be happy. Don't let his Tao heart be damaged. Han Ju listened to their conversation on the mountain and learned that chaotic heavenly dog was only at the spirit transformation stage. He couldn't help but feel speechless. You guys are really daring. A nascent soul and a spirit transformation conspiring to assassinate the Green Python Great Sage. No wonder the Green Python Great Sage is so angry. Being rebelled against by ants is simply a great humiliation. Just

then, Li Chingzhi came to visit in a hurry, saying anxiously, Elder Han, this is bad. Green Python Great Sage has already brought the demon army to kill into great swallow. According to the disciples' report, his target is your disciple Yang Tiandong. Li Chingzhi recommended Yang Tiandong to Han Ju. Yang Tiandong had even helped Jade Pure Sect establish ties with Dian Su Demon King before, which could be considered a great merit. So now expelling him was impossible. Doing so would discourage people all over the world. Let him come. Have all the disciples returned? Han Ju asked

indifferently. Li Chingzhi assured Han Ju, those below Nascent Soul have all hidden inside. The secret hall has been sealed. I've had people destroy the other teleportation entrances. From now on, it can only be entered from Jade Pure Sect, Li Chingzhi cautiously asked. So we're just going to wait like this? Han Ju paused. To be honest, I'm not fully confident either, since we've already made the worst plans. You should also leave a way out. I'll take a gamble. Li Chingzhi asked again. If you really can't beat him, can you retreat safely? Han Ju said, I only

have 70% confidence. Li Chingzhi took out a jade tablet and handed it to Han Ju. Using this can quickly teleport to the Myriad Demon Realm. If you really can't beat him, hurry and come. Also, the primordial spirits of our more than 300 elders are all in this tablet. Our lives are in your hands. Han Ju told Li Chingzhi not to worry. If I really can't beat him, I will take you and run away together. Seeing this, Li Chingzhi could only suppress the unease and panic in his heart. Bid farewell and leave. In the northern part

of Great Swallow, it was icy and snowy. Countless demons gathered on Dian Su Demon King's territory. Green Python Great Sage, exuding a terrifying pressure all over his body, looked down at Dian Su Demon King at his feet and laughed hideously. Dian Su Demon King, who had transformed into human form, looked extremely miserable at this moment. He was covered in blood and had no intact skin. But he still stubbornly said he wouldn't submit. What Great Sage? You're just a fart. Green Python Great Sage took out a bone staff and pointed it at Dian Su Demon King's

head. Since you're so stubborn, say your last words. Don't implicate my family. I only hope you treat my three beautiful wives well. Love them and dote on them. Forget it. Who wants your rotten thing? Green Python Great Sage raised the bone staff and was about to smash down. With a loud bang, Green Python Great Sage actually struck Askew. Green Python Great Sage was seen frowning, holding his waist. His whole body was uncomfortable and he became irritable. Damn little rat is cursing this sage again. Hearing this, Dian Su Demon King couldn't help but think of his

own experience. It seems this guy is also targeted by an immortal. Then I'll bow my head first. Anyway, he won't live long. Dian Su Demon King hurriedly cupped his hands and softened. I am willing to submit to you. Green Python Great Sage snorted coldly and gestured for his subordinates to release Dian Su Demon King's men. Green Python Great Sage waved his right hand and flying snow gathered, condensing into a mirror. The mirror reflected a human face. This sage asks you, do you recognize this half-human half-demon? Dian Su Demon King couldn't help but be startled. Isn't

this my adopted son, Nyang Tien Dong? Could it be that he offended you? Green Python Great Sage's snake eyes instantly turned cold. With a boom, Green Python Great Sage smashed Dian Su Demon King's head with one strike of his staff. Blood splattered everywhere, scaring all the demons to shudder. Green Python Great Sage laughed coldly. Another adopted son. What a good adopted son. Dian Su Demon King's primordial spirit floated out from his body and cried out in horror. Green Python Great Sage, what do you want to do? I have already agreed to submit. Nyang Tien Dong

offending you is not something I assigned. He also took this sage as his adopted father and organized Demon Kings to rebel. This sage doesn't destroy your primordial spirit. From now on, you will have no more ties with Nyang Tien Dong. When this sage captures Nyang Tien Dong, if you dare say a word, this sage will definitely make it impossible for you to reincarnate. Green Python Great Sage said with a hideous face and a cold voice, all Demon Kings listen to orders. Now go kill Jade Pure Set. Leave no one alive. In front of the stone

tablet at the foot of Ascetic Immoral Mountain, Nyang Tien Dong was still kowtowing with a bang. The sound of thunder suddenly woke up the dazed Nyang Tien Dong. He looked up and saw rolling dark clouds sweeping in. That was the dark clouds brought by demonic energy. The demonic energy at the end of the world devoured the mountains and rivers, like an abyss coming, shocking to the core. This sage thought you would run somewhere else. I didn't expect you to run to such a small sect to hide. Today, this sage will eat all the people here

and see where else you can run. It's him. Green Python Great Sage is here. Green Python Great Sage's demon army finally killed into Jade Pure Sect's territory. The protective sect formations of the various peaks of Jade Pure Sect were immediately activated. Before the demon army arrived, the demonic energy came first. Like waves, it surged from all directions, as if it would drown Jade Pure Sect. Li Qingzi asked Xiao Yao and Lu Bumi, can you be a match for Green Python Great Sage? Sect leaderly, you really think too highly of us. What did God Slaying Elder

say? Li Qingzi was sweating profusely on his forehead. God Slaying Elder said to wait a little longer. At this time, Nyang Tien Dong was rushing up the mountain. Master, Green Python Great Sage is here. We should quickly escape. Don't panic. You stay with Chick and the others. Later, teleport to the Myriad Demon Realm. The Jade Tablet will be kept by Morong Qi. It must not be lost. Heaven Earth Grass cried out, Master, don't abandon me. Han Zhu actually showed a smile in this situation. Don't worry. Nothing will happen. Wait a little longer. Han Zhu looked

into the distance. Nyang Tien Dong looked at Han Zhu in disbelief. Could it be that Master had become so powerful that he no longer feared Green Python Great Sage? He understood Han Zhu. If Han Zhu wasn't 100% confident, he definitely wouldn't be so calm. Little did he know, Han Zhu was desperately using the simulation trial to detect within Jade Pure Sect's territory. However, Green Python Great Sage was not detected within a hundred miles. At this time, inside the rolling demonic clouds were countless hideous demons, each more ferocious than the last. They looked at Jade Pure

Sect with eyes as if staring at an amusement park filled with food. Even under the constant attacks of the protective sect formation, large batches of demon soldiers were continuously killed, but the subsequent demon soldiers still poured in like a flood. Li Qingzi led the elders to tenaciously resist, determined to persevere until the last moment. Yuan Tzu trying to stop a chariot, suddenly, a voice that sounded like a heavenly god resounded throughout Jade Pure Sect. Everyone was shocked. It was Green Python Great Sage's voice. Then, a huge mass of spiritual energy directly appeared inside the protective

sect formation, instantly shattering it and injuring all the elders and disciples maintaining the formation. When Xishuan Fairy showed a look of despair at this moment, our front line is actually so fragile. I'm afraid we can't leave. Although the primordial spirits are all with Han Tzu and still have a chance to be resurrected, the prerequisite is that Han Tzu can escape this catastrophe. A group of ants, the strongest is only ninth layer of fusion void realm. What a joke. Mph, the bastard is not at the front line. Let this sage see where he's hiding. Green Python

Great Sage used his spiritual sense to skin Jade Pure Sect, searching for the hiding place of that rebel Sun Yang Tiandong. Green Python Great Sage laughed coldly. Found you. This time, where else can you run? Hoping this little sect can save you, Yang Tiandong was dumbfounded. As if waiting for his final fate, Han Tzu took out the primordial judgment sword and pointed it in the direction where Green Python Great Sage's spiritual sense was coming from. You all back off. The system didn't detect him, but his spiritual sense discovered us. Tribulation Crossing Realm is indeed stronger

than expected. The direction of the spiritual sense has been locked. Come a little closer. Come a little closer. Han Tzu was weighing when to make his move. He wanted to kill Green Python Great Sage when he was off guard. Just then, Green Python Great Sage's spiritual sense also discovered Han Tzu. Only Foundation Establishment Realm 9th layer with a body full of magic treasures. What a weak chicken sect. Then his gaze fell on Chick. What a fat chicken. The cultivation is not bad. It can be considered to be captured as a concubine. Next, his gaze fell

on the Fusang Tree. How is this possible? How could such a divine tree be here? Green Python Great Sage was shocked. He remembered his master had mentioned this tree before. If this tree is offered to master, I might be able to stay there. Saying that, Green Python Great Sage revealed his true form. That figure was like an immortal god standing between heaven and earth. The people of Jade Pure sect could only silently pray. At this moment, Han Tzu activated Three Pure Worlds extermination, and countless sword images were ready to be shot towards Green Python Great

Sage's direction. At this moment, time seemed to stand still. They could no longer hear any sound. Everyone was staring intently at Green Python Great Sage. Han Tzu was still desperately using the system to search, waiting for Green Python Great Sage to enter his detection range. A little closer, Green Python Great Sage laughed wantonly. Let you feel this sage's power. He suddenly leaped up. An extremely violent pressure descended from the sky. Even the mountains of Jade Pure sect were shaking. In an instant, the system finally sent a notification. Green Python Great Sage, Tribulation Crossing Realm First

Layer, Newly Advanced Demon Saint of the Demon Race. Finally here, Han Tzu immediately conducted a simulation trial. Within a breath's time, Han Tzu suddenly swung out the Primordial Judgment Sword. The flood of sword energy almost blew everyone away. Han Tzu's eyes were resolute, looking towards Green Python Great Sage. All of this happened within this one breath. The flood of sword images shot out from Han Tzu's body, all pointing at Green Python Great Sage. Green Python Great Sage only saw a flash of golden light on a scatic immortal mountain. He immediately used silent heavenly mirror armor

to reflect. Countless sword images, dense like a flood of fish crossing a river, unstoppable momentum to pierce mountains and break through rocks. That sword image broke through the armor, accompanied by a deafening boom. The sword light illuminated heaven and earth. Green Python Great Sage was directly crushed and killed by the flood of sword images. Both demon and soul, form and spirit were destroyed, not even given a chance to reincarnate. Everyone was dumbfounded. Their mouths agape. Han Tzu held the Primordial Judgment Sword, turned the blade, and said coldly, It's not over yet. The dust settled. Half

of Green Python Great Sage's corpse swayed in the wind. The demonic energy was completely gone. The demon monsters instantly collapsed. How is this possible? Jade Pure Sect was hiding some big shot. How could Green Python Great Sage die so quickly? All the demons were so scared they turned and fled. At this time, Han Tzu's voice resounded throughout Jade Pure Sect. Bullying my sect. Injuring my human race. And still want to leave? After saying that, Han Tzu swung the Primordial Judgment Sword downward. Countless marks appeared on the demons all over the field. The demons only felt

a burning sensation all over their bodies. The people of Jade Pure Sect were also puzzled. Only Li Ching-Zi knew that Han Tzu was going to cut off the root. Han Tzu pointed his sword at the Vault of Heaven again. The millions of sword images of three pure worlds' extermination shot and killed in different directions. The sword energy continuously condensed into sword images. The demons were pierced through their bodies one by one. Almost instantly, blood blossomed in the sky in all directions of Jade Pure Sect. Like fireworks blooming, spectacularly grand. Under the pressure of Green Python

Great Sage, the sky full of blood blossoms looked so beautiful. At this time, Dian Tzu Demon King, who only had his primordial spirit left, did not dare to move for fear of being wiped out as a demon soldier. Dian Tzu Demon King stared blankly at Green Python Great Sage's corpse. A tribulation crossing realm demon lord is actually so fragile. It turns out that a mortal was hiding in Jade Pure Sect. No wonder after going to Jade Pure Sect, the curse disappeared. It seems that the curse that Green Python Great Sage felt actually came from that

immortal. Unfortunately, this guy insisted on rampaging and ended up dead. Dian Tzu Demon King secretly vowed, if there is a chance, he still wants to visit Jade Pure Sect. Even if he becomes a mount for that immortal, it's not a problem. At this time, Han Tzu received another system notification. You killed a tribulation crossing realm existence for the first time and obtained a Heaven's Dow Spirit Stone. Han Tzu frowned. Why is it this brick again? Chick was overjoyed. This was not the first time a seemingly invincible powerhouse had come to Jade Pure Sect and was

directly killed by Han Tzu in seconds. Sun Chang'an and Mo Rong Qi also admired Han Tzu to the extreme. Especially Mo Rong Qi. Han Tzu was still a bit unfamiliar to him. He had always been curious about his Grandmaster's cultivation. Today he finally saw it. His whole person was dumbfounded. There was also Yang Tiandong. He was the clearest about how strong Green Python Great Sage was. In his heart, the truly invincible existence was Green Python Great Sage. This demon saint who brought Yang Tiandong endless despair and fear was killed in seconds by his master. Myriad

emotions gathered in Yang Tiandong's heart, finally turning into endless guilt. It turned out that the strongest person had always been by his side, but he had been chasing illusory power all over the world. Yang Tiandong smiled bitterly, not even daring to look at Han Tzu. When Han Tzu passed by Yang Tiandong, he asked coldly, why are you still standing here? Have you finished kowtowing today? Yang Tiandong turned around and knelt down to Han Tzu, heavily kowtowing three times. Then he hurriedly ran down the mountain. Yes, master, from now on, if you dare to run out

again without my consent, the bond between us as master and disciple will be severed. I will no longer intervene in your life and death. At this time, at the foot of the mountain, the disciples of Jade Pure Sect were cleaning up the battlefield. After today's battle, God Slaying Elder once again ascended to the altar in the hearts of Jade Pure Sect's cultivators. Han Tzu walked towards that bone-staff magic weapon of Green Python Great Sage. Even his ultimate move could not destroy it. What was the origin of this thing? This thing could block the curse of

the Book of Misfortune. Its grade was probably above the Book of Misfortune. Han Tzu stepped forward to touch it and carefully probed his spiritual sense into it. Who knew there was actually space inside this bone-staff, and there was another aura in this space? Just then, the remnant soul suddenly opened its eyes and shouted angrily, what do you want to do? It scared Han Tzu so much that his eyelids jumped. He retracted his spiritual sense. No, I can't keep it. It's better to directly destroy it. If this remnant soul still has a true body, it might

find its way here relying on the remnant soul. Han Tzu immediately used Six Paths Soul Absorption to absorb the remnant soul inside. The huge bone-staff suddenly shrank. Han Tzu only felt that the kind of pressure he had just felt. He had seen it in the way of the Sword River. At this time, the system sent another notification. Extinction Taoist has developed a grudge against you because you killed his demon pet and remnant soul that he left in the mortal world. He is full of hatred towards you and will definitely cause trouble for you when you

ascend. Scattered Immortal Realm 8th Layer. When I ascend, that means he can't come down to find me. Han Tzu was first scared, then breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking proudly, I'll wait until I have the cultivation to kill you before ascending. What can you do to me then? Han Tzu thought for a moment. This is also fortunate. The upper realm is so strong, can't descend to the mortal world. Was it negotiated or restricted? In other words, after ascending, you can never come back again. The question is, after ascending, can I still cultivate with peace

of mind like now? My enemies are basically all in the upper realm. It's very unwise to ascend prematurely now. If it can be delayed, then delay it. Let's see what you can do to me then. Western Abyss province also suffered the rampage of Green Python Great Sage. But True Martial Sect luckily escaped, mainly because Green Python Great Sage didn't have time to deal with them before being attracted by Yang Tiandong. The high-level figures of True Martial Sect gathered in a grand hall. Everyone was shocked upon hearing the news of Green Python Great Sage's demise. Shang

Wanqiu Jin smiled bitterly. What a jade-pure sect. What a godslaying elder. Huang Jihao stood beside Shang Wanqiu Jin. He had now become a core disciple of True Martial Sect. Everyone looked at Shang Wanqiu Jin. One of the elders asked, teaching elder, you went to Great Swallow's jade-pure sect before. Is jade-pure sect really that powerful? Shang Wanqiu Jin smiled bitterly. To be honest, I went to challenge jade-pure sect's godslaying elder and was defeated by him with one sword. I have always been too embarrassed to mention this past event. Everyone's jaws dropped. Then how outrageous must he

be? You are the strongest combat power in the entire sect. Shang Wanqiu Jin said lightly, now it seems that being defeated by godslaying elder is not a disgrace, but rather my honor. After all, I survived under his sword. After this matter, jade-pure sect will be the holy land of Great Swallow's cultivation world, and even the holy land of the Ten Continents and Nine Dynasties. Our True Martial Sect must go to establish ties with them as soon as possible. Huang Jihao said, disciple is willing to immediately go to jade-pure sect to represent True Martial Sect and

thank jade-pure sect on behalf of Western Abyss province. Shang Wanqiu Jin instructed, not only that, we also need to prepare a big gift. An elder who didn't understand asked, our True Martial Sect also suffered heavy losses. At this time, going to curry favor with jade-pure sect, how will the disciples in the sect view us? Shang Wanqiu Jin glared at him and shouted, wake up, what are you thinking? Master Yu, jade-pure sect saved the people of the world. If we don't go to thank them, how will the people of the world view us? You see, in

the future, jade-pure sect will definitely be the holy land that cultivators all over the world look up to. If we are a step slower, other sects will go first. His words made the elders ponder. When jade-pure sect becomes powerful in the future, there will definitely be sects that will be arrogant by relying on them. So the earlier we go, the more benefits we will gain. Indeed, this opportunity cannot be missed. Establishing ties with jade-pure sect will only bring many benefits. So with everyone's agreement, True Martial Sect decided to send Huang Jihao to jade-pure sect immediately.

On the other side, in Nine Dragons sect, since being attacked by Green Python Great Sage, Nine Dragons sect had already split into four or five factions internally, and quite a few people had even fled. Old Huang looked at the ruins inside. Seniors are seniors. Even Green Python Great Sage is no match for them. Otherwise, we would have to keep taking refuge. Cultivators should originally cultivate for longevity. The so-called sect is only for the sake of passing down the teachings. When a sect exists for the sake of power, how is it different from a gang in

the mortal world? At this time, a disciple came to report, after the elders' count, our Nine Dragons sect had reached 70,000 people at its peak. Now there are only 3,000 people left. More than 90% of the buildings are destroyed, and the books and magic treasures have been looted clean. Fortunately, the Nine Dragons' true scripture was buried in a mechanism and was not discovered by those demon monsters. Old Huang sighed that many years of operation were gone just like that. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that there was no more Nine Dragons sect in this

world. The disciple consoled Old Huang. As long as the root of the secret teachings remains, Nine Dragons sect will definitely be able to relive its former glory. Old Huang said helplessly, we do have the capital, but you also know how many sects covet our secret techniques. In this situation, what do we use to protect the inheritance? As he was talking, Huang Zuntian suddenly flew up and suspended himself in mid-air above Nine Dragons sect. Using a voice that penetrated heaven and earth, he said, all disciples and elders of Nine Dragons sect listen to orders. I believe

everyone is very clear about the current situation. Our sect's disciples all need a place of shelter. The surrounding forces are eyeing us like tigers. Rebuilding the sect will definitely be fraught with difficulties and will inevitably increase unnecessary sacrifices. Rather than being annexed by them, it's better to find a backer to develop ourselves. So I have decided that everyone will go to Jade Pure sect today, using the Nine Dragons true scripture as a congratulatory gift to surrender to Jade Pure sect. As soon as these words came out, all the disciples' eyes were dazed. Has the sect

leader gone mad? How can the secret treasure be casually given to others? Huang Zuntian explained, Nine Dragons sect has only changed the form of its existence. It's always better than being completely annihilated. Moreover, Jade Pure sect supports the principle of seeking common ground while reserving differences. After we merge, we will still have control over the secret techniques. Blood Flame Heavenly Gate is a very good example. The disciples discussed among themselves. Indeed, Blood Flame Heavenly Gate was doing quite well now. Huang Zuntian continued to persuade the sect disciples, relying on the strength of others to protect

our inheritance. When you become powerful, you can leave Jade Pure sect then. When he said this, the clever disciples heard that the sect leader did not intend to go together. Old Huang looked at the distant mountains. This time I'm going to find a higher mountain, like the senior, to cultivate the most ascetic immortality. If Jade Pure sect doesn't accept you, you can go find God Slaying Elder and report Huang Zuntian's name. God Slaying Elder will understand. Having said that, Huang Zuntian's figure disappeared into the sky, leaving a group of sect disciples at a loss. Eight

years after the sword slew the demon saint, Jade Pure sect's reputation in the cultivation world had already risen like the sun, bustling with activity all day long. The righteous and demonic paths both came to pay respect, and even the emperor of Great Swallow Dynasty came. The emperor built a steel and wrote a biography for God Slaying Elder, revering Jade Pure sect as the national faith. From then on, Jade Pure sect was officially renamed Jade Pure Holy Sect. One day, Li Qinzi came to visit Han Ju. Facing Elder Han again, he appeared very restrained. In these

years, the sect's prosperity has already become the national faith, already unparalleled in prestige. Even Nine Dragons sect wants to join us. I heard it was Wei Yuan who told them to come. This really puzzled Han Ju. Is old Huang going to give up? In addition, Li Qinzi had already sent a message to the Grand Master, saying that in a few years, the Grand Master would return to take up the position of sect leader again. Han Ju asked Li Qinzi why, and Li Qinzi directly said I feel that I don't have much time left, so I

plan to wholeheartedly cultivate to fight for my own life. Although Han Ju had stayed in Jade Pure sect for hundreds of years, he didn't have many acquaintances and could even say they could be counted on one hand. Han Ju said to Li Qinzi, after the position of sect leader is handed over, you can move to ascetic Immortal Mountain to cultivate. As for where you want to open up your cave residence, it's up to you. Having obtained Han Ju's consent, Li Qinzi was extremely happy. After chatting a few more words, he left. I hope you can

also go a little further on the path of cultivation. After Li Qinzi left, Han Ju thought of Chan Yue who had left with Nine Cauldron Sage. In the several crises over the years, she had never used the puppet he gave her. After the same moonlight, Chan Yue was also thinking of Han Ju. The night is deep, junior brother. Are you still well? Han Ju used the Heavenly Puppet to transmit sound to her for the first time, senior sister. Are you there? Chan Yue was overjoyed to hear his voice. Junior brother, is that you? It turns

out you can talk to me through the puppet. Why didn't you say there was this function earlier? Do you know how much I missed you? In the first few years, I called out to you every day. Why didn't you answer? Could it be that you forgot about me because you have other cultivation partners? Chan Yue fired a barrage of questions, not giving Han Ju a chance to answer at all. The spiritual power stored in the Heavenly Puppet is limited. If it's used up, it can't protect you anymore. So it has to be used sparingly. Hearing

that Han Ju had been protecting her all along, Chan Yue was extremely touched. Suddenly, she thought of something. Wait, the puppet can sense me? Doesn't that mean I am seen naked by my junior brother every day without realizing it? Han Ju said helplessly, the spiritual power of the puppet is not used like that. It only reacts when it detects that you are in danger. Before Han Ju could finish speaking, Chan Yue continued to expose herself. Ah, the things I did to the puppet every day, weren't they all sensed by you? Chan Yue was so embarrassed

she wanted to die on the spot. On the other side, Han Ju was puzzled. Chan Yue was embarrassedly scratching the floor. Han Ju hurriedly told her that the Grand Master would return to the sect in a few years. He advised Chan Yue to come back with the Grand Master at that time. Chan Yue said she would never do that again. Junior brother, say something. No matter how Chan Yue called out, Han Ju just wouldn't respond anymore. Only the watery eyes of the puppet were still looking at her. Chan Yue said coquettishly, bad junior brother, you

care about me but refuse to say it. It's good to be so cold. Xing Hongxian and Mo Zhu are probably often neglected by junior brother too. When I go back, don't even think about escaping from my palm. Thinking of this, Chan Yue smiled even more brilliantly, just as Chan Yue was indulging in self admiration. A magnetic voice came from outside the cave, junior sister Chan Yue, there is a great opportunity. Recently, Red Dragon Immortal Island has a great expert giving a lecture. I have an invitation to enter the island. Chan Yue gave a light-o. Do

you want to go? I can take you in. The man was waving a fan with a smug look, clearly a cultivator, but dressed like a scholar. The opportunity to attend a lecture is hard to come by, maybe there will be unexpected gains. Chan Yue said coldly, thank you for your kind intentions, senior brother. I won't go. I recently had some comprehension in my cultivation. I need to ponder it well. Seeing that Chan Yue had no intention of going, the man could only take his leave in embarrassment. Then when I encounter good treasures on Red Dragon

Immortal Island, I will definitely bring them back for you, junior sister. Chan Yue glared at him, no need to trouble senior brother. I just want to wholeheartedly cultivate. I have no use for treasures. Having said that, Chan Yue turned her head and returned to the cave residence. This man was a bootlicker and couldn't understand the goddess' words at all. Senior brother is leaving first, I'll come to see you again next time. Chan Yue inwardly cursed him for not knowing what was good for him, coming to pester me every day instead of cultivating properly. When you

come back next time, I will have already gone back to my handsome little junior brother. Isn't that right, little junior brother? Junior brother, come closer, senior sister will be able to go back and cultivate with you soon. At this time, in a dark cave somewhere, several figures were sitting together. A black-robed old man spoke first, Green Python Great Sage is dead. What do you all think of this matter? It is said that he died at the hands of a sect called Jade Pure Sect and Great Swallow, the Jade Pure Holy Sect that is now in

its prime. One figure was slightly startled, seeming to know Jade Pure Sect. Green Python Great Sage was my master's demon pet. Letting him slaughter the human race of the Ten Continents and Nine Dynasties was also our scheme. This grudge must be avenged. Also, although countless humans have died, the human race has not completely collapsed. We need to find another way. A burly bald man said in a deep voice, Green Python Great Sage was too arrogant, relying on Extinction Taoist's magic weapon. He really thought he was invincible in the world. It's good that he's dead. Just

relying on the demon race is still not enough. To crush the human cultivation world, we still need to rely on humans. I suggest supporting human-demon cultivators to promote infighting among humans. A white-haired woman nodded in agreement. She wore red clothes and had fair skin, looking more like a female ghost, with a cold and bewitching smile. She turned to another person and said, Demon Lord, what do you think? Demon Lord nodded and said, I have no objection, but I have to remind you. I went to the underworld a while ago. The demon clan over there is

getting a bit impatient. Everyone was startled. Demon Lord continued, You should be very clear about the consequences of not completing the task of reviving the demon clan as scheduled. How about this? Leave the matter of Jade Pure Sect to me, and the other plans to you. The black-robed old man replied, The background of that mysterious cultivator of Jade Pure Sect must be investigated. If he is not beneficial to our plan, Demon Lord, try your best to kill him. Xianqing Jun nodded expressionlessly, Han Zhu, we will finally meet. With the passage of time and cultivation, a

decade in the moral world is an era, and five years pass in a flash. Five years later, Han Zhu finally broke through to the ninth layer of the Union Realm. He was rarely excited. The Tribulation Crossing Realm was just in sight. To celebrate, he habitually took out the Book of Misfortune. For Million Bird, Mo Yiling, Extinction Taoist, everyone gets a share, none of the brothers can be left out. After that great battle back then, Han Zhu thought it over and finally fused the Heaven's Tao Spirit Stone into the Book of Misfortune. The Peerless Spiritual Treasure

Book of Misfortune crossed two grades and was upgraded to a Tai Grade Spiritual Treasure. Han Zhu cursed while checking his mail. Your enemy Mo Yiling's Tao Heart was damaged due to your curse, encountered Heart Demons, and his cultivation greatly decreased. Han Zhu was overjoyed, Mo Yiling's cultivation greatly decreased. How wonderful! Unfortunately, nothing has happened to Vermillion Bird, an Extinction Taoist yet. Han Zhu noticed Xing Hongxuan's update. More than ten years ago, Xing Hongxuan's favorability had already reached six stars, and she had a more substantial relationship with him, so she could be directly set as a

cultivation partner. As for Ma Zhu, Han Zhu had not yet set her as a cultivation partner. After all, Xing Hongxuan often presented him with treasures, while Ma Zhu would occasionally cause him trouble. In Han Zhu's heart, Xing Hongxuan was naturally more important. This woman must have been infected by my Immoral Emperor Descendant's luck. Her luck is really top-notch. Who knows what treasure she'll bring back to me next time? Han Zhu. And not someone who lives off women. Han Zhu asked Heaven Earth Grass what happened during its seclusion over the years. Heaven Earth Grass said that

the sect leader came to look for Han Zhu this morning. Today was the sect leader's 900th birthday, and he wanted to invite Han Zhu to give a lecture to the sect disciples at the Intersect City Feast. Heaven Earth Grass continued, I guessed you definitely wouldn't want to go, so I directly refused. Master, am I awesome? Han Zhu praised with a smile. Well done. I really don't want to go out and show my face. Indirectly refusing is indeed not good. Privately congratulating the sect leader is better. That's right. I'll take you guys to stroll around the

Intersect. Han Zhu walked out of the cave residence and found that Qiq had left a note on the ground vine. Master, there is a grand feast in the sect recently. Seeing that you are still in seclusion, we won't wait for you. Yang Tiandong wrote, This group of unfilial disciples actually abandoned me and secretly ran to eat the feast first. I hope they didn't encounter that shop. At this time, Qiq and the others had already come to the market in the Intersect to stroll around. A shop called Bite Big Chicken. Han Zhu seemed to have mentioned

it before. Not long after, Han Zhu also took Heaven Earth Grass to leisurely stroll around the market. It was lively and bustling here, with many disciples. Han Zhu also thought about whether he would meet a few more new people with extraordinary talent. Just as he was thinking, the system suddenly sent a notification. Han Zhu thought he had found another innate destiny person, but this notification made him gasp. Xianqing Jun, Mahayana realm 8th layer, ranked as demon lord. Heaven Earth Grass was still excitedly looking at all kinds of lively scenes, but Han Zhu couldn't be happy

at all. That female demon was looking at him in the tea house. There was no way to hide from her. Han Zhu planned to go over and meet her, wondering how this woman came, and not in a moral body. Could it be that she discovered my affair with Xing Hongxian? I have always done a good job with my confidentiality measures. Whatever. I, a dignified 9th layer Yunyan realm, how can I be so timid? Soon, Han Zhu walked into the tea house where Xianqing Jun was. Madam Demon Lord, you've come from afar. I failed to welcome

you. Xianqing Jun did not speak. Han Zhu thought to himself, not good. She looks to be in a bad mood. This female demon's appearance was still the same as before. Not beautiful, but not ugly. In summary plain, but with temperament. At this point, it definitely couldn't be concealed. After all, Xian Xueshe also knew I was the godslaying elder. Maybe she had already communicated with Xianqing Jun. After a long time, Xianqing Jun still didn't say a word. Han Zhu felt uneasy inside. Could it be that she was waiting for me to confess? She had been observing

me. Could it be that I still had Xing Hongxuan's aura on me? It shouldn't be. Xing Hongxuan always cleaned up very thoroughly, every time. Suddenly, Xianqing Jun spoke. Some time ago. Did you? Before she could finish, Han Zhu immediately interrupted her, rather than passively letting her expose it. It was better for me to take the initiative and be frank. Miss Xian, listen to my explanation. Things are not what you think. Xianqing Jun also suddenly released her pressure. No need to explain. What's done is done. You really dare to do it and take responsibility. You really

are the man I fancy. Han Zhu almost cried. Madam, I was wrong. Whether you want to kill me or flay me, it's up to you. But Xing and I. Han Zhu hadn't finished confessing when Xianqing Jun interrupted him. You killed that green python. So you killed it. With me here. No one can do anything to you. Han Zhu scared out a cold sweat. You're referring to the matter of Green Python Great Sage? Xianqing Jun suspiciously sipped some tea. Could it be that there are other things I don't know about? Han Zhu hurriedly changed the topic.

No, no. Miss Xian, do you have any urgent business this time you came back? Xianqing Jun said coldly. I came to avenge Green Python Great Sage. But since it was you who killed him, then this matter shall be dropped. In the future, if others ask, you can't admit that it was your doing. As for the real culprit, just say he has already been killed by me. Did you hear clearly? That Green Python Great Sage couldn't have accomplices behind him. Could he? Xianqing Jun continued. This demon indeed has a big background. But you don't need to

worry. I will stop that guy. You can cultivate with peace of mind. Shit. Extinction Taoist still has connections in the mortal world. This is a big problem. Han Zhu inwardly complained. Xianqing Jun walked to the window while speaking and caressed Han Zhu's face. Since you were able to kill the Green Python, you must have reached the Tribulation Crossing Realm. These elixirs are for those in the Tribulation Crossing Realm. Take them for your use. Han Zhu quickly stopped her. Uh, that. Actually, I've just reached the ninth level of the Union Realm. Xianqing Jun was greatly shocked.

With just the strength of the eighth level of the Union Realm, you were able to kill a Green Python in the Tribulation Crossing Realm? I know it's hard to believe, but it's true. The system prompted. Your cultivation partner Xianqing Jun's affection for you has increased, currently at five stars. Finally, Xianqing Jun smiled, constantly amazed. I didn't expect you to be a once-in-a-millennium genius, even more suitable to be my cultivation partner. Han Zhu thought to himself. I've dodged a bullet, but it seems not entirely. Xianqing Jun laughed lightly. It seems a bit early now. Easy to

wear you out. You must cultivate well. I will wait for you to mature slowly. Mature? What the heck? Do you think I'm a little apple in an orchard? Han Zhu quickly took out the Green Python Great Sage's magic weapon and handed it to Xianqing Jun. This is the magic weapon left by the Green Python Great Sage. I think it's not simple. Take it. The Golden Staff of Extinction. Indeed, this treasure is extraordinary. Just right for me to take back and convince those people that the true culprit is dead. Xianqing Jun took the Golden Staff. The

world is about to change dramatically. You just need to cultivate well. As my cultivation partner, even if it's destroying heaven and earth, I can keep you safe. Han Zhu quickly asked. Could you tell me, what's the situation with the dramatic changes in the world, and who wants to avenge the Green Python? Xianqing Jun stopped, glaring at him with the corner of her eye. This involves too much cause and effect. It's unknowable. As for the name of the person seeking revenge, it's Luo Qioma. Han Zhu thought to himself. Luo Qioma. Ha, wait for me. Mo Yiling,

Extinction Taoist, Vermilion Bird. Luo Qioma. None of you can escape. Han Zhu returned to his cave dwelling and directly took out the Book of Misfortune, leaving half a page specifically for Luo Qioma. Three years later, Han Zhu raised his cultivation to the peak of the Union Realm, preparing to break through to the Tribulation Crossing Realm. He found a cave residence located halfway up the mountain. Li Qinzi had just moved in. Sect leader. Do you know of any suitable place nearby for Tribulation Crossing? Preferably a place where no one will disturb within a hundred miles. According

to the records of the Six Realms of Reincarnation technique, the duration of the Heavenly Tribulation at the Tribulation Crossing Realm is several times that of the Union Realm, and the power is also several times. If I go to the Myriad Demon Realm this time, I might destroy it. I must find a safe place to Tribulation Cross. Li Qinzi thought for a moment and said, There is indeed a place. It's a plain to the east of Jade Pure Holy Sect where it rains all year round, and many poisonous insects and demon beasts grow. Cultivators rarely go

there. I'll take you there. The two quickly left Ascetic Immortal Mountain. Under the cave residence, Mo Rongqi asked strangely, Why did Grand Master and sect leader go out? Chick pouted. He's obviously going to break through. Master's breakthrough speed at high realms is faster than you guys at low realms. Do you have any shame? Mo Rongqi slightly pouted and didn't dare to respond, but Yang Tiandong was unconvinced. You have the face to talk about us? You haven't had any breakthroughs either. Chick shouted, My realm is higher than yours. So what? Your breakthroughs are slow. Even if

my breakthroughs are slow, my realm is still higher than yours. Yang Tiandong was about to die of anger, crazily pounding on Chick's body. Master's chickens and dogs are all asking for a beating. However, Chick quite enjoyed this kind of scraping. Half a day later, Han Zhu and Li Chingzhi arrived at a dark and damp plain. You go back first. My tribulation crossing will take time. Li Chingzhi asked, Do you need me to guard you? Han Zhu shook his head. The enemies who can interfere with my tribulation crossing, you can't stop them. His words made sense.

Li Chingzhi bid farewell and left. With the spiritual treasures on Han Zhu's body and his own strength, it was almost impossible for him to die in the heavenly tribulation, unless someone took the opportunity to sneak attack him. Three hours later, the heavenly tribulation arrived. The heavenly lightning of the tribulation crossing realm was indeed extraordinary. The entire plain was shrouded in thunderstorms. Han Zhu had no worries about this kind of scene, but he forgot to take off his jade pure sec Taoist robe. This mortal object definitely could not withstand the heavenly tribulation. Just as the heavenly

lightning struck down, the Taoist robe instantly turned to dust. The golden cicada mystical god robe was transparent. So now, Han Zhu could only tribulation cross naked. Just like that, the heavenly tribulation bombarded crazily for a month. One month later, Han Zhu successfully tribulation crossed and stepped into the tribulation crossing realm. The system notification. You have successfully broken through to the tribulation crossing realm. You have the following choices. 1. Prepare to ascend. You can go to all three realms. You can obtain a spiritual treasure and a Heaven's Tao Spirit Stone. 2. Continue cultivating and strive for

the Mahayana realm. You can obtain a spiritual treasure and a divine ability inheritance. Han Zhu inwardly cursed. Can I choose new clothes? I don't want to fly back to ascetic immortal mountain like this. Although the tribulation crossing realm can ascend, now is not the time. For million bird and extinction Taoist, those two fellows are still waiting for me in the heavens. Ascending now is purely thinking that my life is too long. Han Zhu silently chose to continue cultivating. System notification. Congratulations on choosing to continue cultivating and strive for the Mahayana realm. Temporarily not ascending. Obtained

a spiritual treasure and a divine ability inheritance. Purple gold soft armor. Tai grade 8th grade defensive spiritual treasure. Extremely strong defense. Congratulations on obtaining the divine ability sleeve world. The sleeve is the world, containing the dark and bright of all things. Han Zhu was overjoyed. This is simply a timely help. With this, I don't have to go back to the sect bare assed. Moreover, it's a Tai grade defensive spiritual treasure. The system really understands me. The system also informed him of the method of ascension. Use one's own luck to move the Heaven's Tao, and the

Heaven's Tao will help one transcend the moral world and ascend to the upper realm. The method of reincarnation. Use the power of reincarnation to move the Heaven's Tao. Han Zhu looked at his cultivation in the attribute panel, which clearly stated 109,000 years of lifespan. Han Zhu was dumbfounded. I have never heard of a cultivator who can live for 100,000 years. The tribulation crossing realm is already so outrageous. When I break through to the Mahayana realm, won't I have the same lifespan as Heaven? Looking out, the plain was charred black by the heavenly lightning, full of

pits and holes everywhere. The rain also stopped. The heavenly tribulation not only changed the topography, but also changed the climate here. Just then, Han Zhu suddenly sensed life. How can living beings below the tribulation crossing realm withstand the heavenly tribulation for a month? Han Zhu immediately searched with his spiritual sense, and soon captured a girl. Not only was this person uninjured, even the surrounding flowers, grass, and trees were unharmed. This person is definitely not simple. Han Zhu flashed in front of this person, scaring the girl pale. What do you intend by staying at my tribulation

crossing location? Frightened by Han Zhu, the girl cried pear blossoms with rain. The system suddenly sent a notification. Detected innate destiny person. Do you want to check her background? Sure enough, she is not an ordinary person. Han Zhu checked the system panel, and a golden SSR card appeared in his eyes. Fang Liang. Energy refining realm third layer. Child of heaven and earth. Born with the luck of heaven and earth. Protected by the luck of heaven and earth. Because the luck is too vast, the physical body and soul cannot bear it. Once breaking through to the

golden core realm, the luck of heaven and earth will manifest. From then on, soaring to the sky. Unstoppable. Han Zhu muttered to himself. Child of heaven and earth. In a man? System. Did you make a typo? You say such a cute girl is a man. Could he be a trap? Han Zhu stared at Fang Liang and sized him up. Fang Liang felt uncomfortable all over from his stare and stutter. Junior had no intention of disturbing senior's tribulation crossing. Junior apologizes to you. Han Zhu was speechless. This is the child of heaven and earth? Too much

of a whim. He said expressionlessly. With your wheat cultivation, why did you come to this place? Fang Liang said in trepidation. To be honest, Junior is a rogue cultivator. I originally wanted to join Jade Pure Holy Sect and happened to pass by this place. Han Zhu thought to himself. This person's luck is indeed heaven defying. He was trapped in the heavenly tribulation for so long, but as fine as if nothing happened. But how can this kind of personality live up to his identity as a child of heaven and earth? Forget it. It's better to form

a good connection. Han Zhu threw out a godslaying token and tossed it in front of Fang Liang. Seeing the words godslaying, Fang Liang was startled. Isn't this the legendary godslaying elder of Jade Pure Holy Sect? Fang Liang was about to kneel and pay respects to godslaying elder. But Han Zhu threw down these words and disappeared on the spot, meeting his fate. You can take out this token when entering Jade Pure Holy Sect. Although he was a child of heaven and earth, Han Zhu didn't value him much. By the time Fang Liang rampaged across the world,

Han Zhu might have already become an immortal. Just as he returned to the cave residence, a line of words appeared in front of Han Zhu's eyes. Fang Liang has developed good feelings for you. Current favorability is four stars. Han Zhu thought to himself, when a person is at the bottom and receives unsolicited guidance from a powerful figure, they always tend to develop admiration. Seeing that Han Zhu had returned, heaven-earth grass was so excited. Master, you finally came back. I was worried to death not hearing from you for so long. Han Zhu had been gone for

so long. It was worried about being abandoned. How has your cultivation been recently? Han Zhu asked. This blade of grass had already reached the eighth layer of energy cultivation realm. Its talent was indeed a bit strong. Heaven-earth grass replied. While cultivating, I always flash some memories about cultivation. It seems to be a set of cultivation techniques. Han Zhu was not surprised. After all, heaven-earth grass had followed immortals to comprehend the Tao. Too much memory was lost. Only a little bit was remembered. A speck of dust can fill the sea. A stalk of immortal grass can

cut stars. Master, do you think this might be hinting that I should take the path of a sword cultivator? It's most likely. You can cultivate with peace of mind. If there's anything abnormal, tell me at any time. Han Zhu instructed. Heaven-earth grass nodded happily. Okay, master. Since the death of Green Python Great Sage, cultivators from all over the world had come in droves. Jade Pure Holy Sect was very popular. At this time, Fang Liang had also arrived at Jade Pure Holy Sect. Seeing so many people, Fang Liang was a little dazed. He didn't know where

to find God Slaying Elder. Fortunately, Jade Pure Holy Sect had set up an admissions office. Fang Liang timidly stepped forward to inquire about the whereabouts of God Slaying Elder. The one receiving him was Gu Yugong. In these years, he had seen too many people using God Slaying Elder's name. Everyone wanted to be God Slaying Elder's disciple. How can he accept disciples as you wish? Hurry up and queue at the back. Who knew? At this time, Fang Liang took out the God Slaying token. What happened next goes without saying. Gu Yugong instantly brought Fang Liang to

Ascetic Immortal Mountain. After all, this was a token issued by God Slaying Elder. Han Zhu was too lazy to pay attention to him. Yang Tiandong instantly flashed to Fang Liang's side. Miss, what's your name? Fang Liang was amused by his dead appearance. I'm called Fang Liang. This group of century-old straight men were drooling at the sight. A graceful and elegant lady. A perfect match for a gentleman. Miss, you look as refreshing as the spring breeze, making people feel comfortable. Who knew? Han Zhu passed by the four of them and tossed out a sentence. He's a

man. The four instantly petrified. Master, is it too late to drive him away now? We don't need men anymore. Yang Tiandong muttered. Han Zhu asked Sun Chang'an, do you still want to take in disciples? At these words, Yang Tiandong, Dark Prison Chicken, and Murong Qi were startled. Sun Chang'an also asked hesitantly, Master, you want me to take in disciples again? Han Zhu nodded. That's right. I still need to continue cultivating. But Sun Chang'an, you're different. Your physique is equivalent to passive cultivation. Even if you don't cultivate, you can constantly improve on your own. You're the

best choice to lead people, and it won't delay your cultivation. Yang Tiandong shouted at Sun Chang'an unconvincingly. Murong Qi's cultivation has almost caught up to you. Are you afraid of losing face and don't dare to take in disciples? Yang Tiandong hurriedly recommended himself. Master, how about this? If the fat guy won't accept him, how about I do it? Han Zhu glared at him and said unhappily. If I let you take him in, I'm afraid you'll send him to other demon kings to be their grandson. Yang Tiandong instantly lowered his head in shame. Han Zhu called

Fang Liang over. Fang Liang thought Han Zhu was going to accept him and was extremely excited. Yang Tiandong hurriedly introduced, don't look at this fatty being old and ugly. He is your master. Fang Liang was a little disappointed. After all, the master he had in mind was Godslaying Elder. Han Zhu said, with your current cultivation, if you have any doubts, anyone present can easily answer them. When your cultivation improves in the future and they can't answer your questions, I will personally teach you. In my place, there is no difference between master and disciple. Fang Liang

finally put his mind at ease and immediately knelt to Sun Chang'an, calling out master. Han Zhu looked at the lively five people and couldn't help but sigh. Big disciple Yang Tiandong, demon saint bloodline. Second disciple Su Qi, the reincarnation of a jinx. Third disciple Sun Chang'an, reincarnation of the upper realm's primordial spiritual ginseng. Big grand disciple Morong Qi, reincarnation of the divine palace's god of war, revered as marvelous truth divine emperor. Second grand disciple Fang Liang, child of heaven and earth. Dark prison chicken, reincarnation of the upper realm's demon saint. True form is dark prison

phoenix. Chaotic heavenly dog, lucky divine beast. There's also the heaven earth grass that can become an immoral god. All beings of great destiny, an all-star lineup. The championship is just around the corner. Perhaps I'll ascend after they have developed further, or let them ascend first and back me up in the future. Han Zhu shook his head and smiled, not thinking too much. By the time they cultivate to ascension, who knows how long it will be. He instructed Sun Chang'an, the jade purity art can be passed on to him. Don't let him leave the mountain before

the golden core realm. In another flash of years, Nine Cauldron Sage brought a group of disciples back and officially took charge of Jade Pure Holy Sect again. A girl who came with him made the hearts of the sect's disciples flutter. Chang Yu'er's return cost quite a stir in Jade Pure Holy Sect. The first thing she did when she came back was to find her master. But no matter how she looked, Chang Yu'er couldn't find Xishuan Fairy. Li Qingzi came to welcome Nine Cauldron Sage. Chang Yu'er hurriedly asked, sect leaderly, why isn't my master here? Li

Qingzi said, Xishuan Fairy is in seclusion in Elder Han's cave residence. Chang Yu'er instantly froze, Xishuan Fairy is in seclusion in Elder Han's cave residence? It's over. It's over. I calculated everything. But I actually miscalculated my master. As Chang Yu'er carefully recalled, Han Zhu was very indifferent to everyone. But he often showed a smile to Xishuan Fairy. Now that the two of them lived so close, didn't that mean they were close to water and pavilion, hitting it off with each other, shoulder to shoulder, intimate and affectionate? The more Chang Yu'er thought about it, the angrier

she became. She hurriedly asked sect leaderly to find out the situation. Wanting to know when her master moved to Han Zhu's place, sect leaderly said it was something that happened quite a while ago. But he happened to be moving some things over there. If Chang Yu'er couldn't find the way, he could guide her. Learning that the sect leader had also moved to Ascetic Immortal Mountain, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that her master was like the sect leader, borrowing spiritual energy there to cultivate. Chang Yu'er thought to herself that she was

overthinking it. Junior brother doesn't seem to be someone who falls in love easily. Junior brother and sect leader have an extremely good relationship, so it's reasonable for them to cooperate with each other. No, the problem seems to be even bigger. Chang Yu'er immediately went to Ascetic Immortal Mountain. Han Zhu opened the protective mountain formation and let Chang Yu'er into the cave residence. Junior brother. Junior brother. Long time no see. Chang Yu'er called out excitedly. Han Zhu glanced at Chang Yu'er's cultivation. Although she had been away for a long time, Chang Yu'er's cultivation had improved quite

quickly, already at the ninth layer of the Golden Core Realm. But it was still a bit slow. Chang Yu'er said that her advancement speed naturally couldn't compare to Junior brother's. She had no intention of discussing cultivation now and immediately asked Han Zhu about Xishuan Ferry. Chang Yu'er asked solemnly. My master has lived a secluded life, rarely interacting with others. How did you manage to bring my master over? Did she come willingly, or did you do something to her? After Han Zhu's explanation, Chang Yu'er finally dispelled her doubts. Chang Yu'er talked about her experiences over the

years. Han Zhu listened attentively, taking the opportunity to learn about overseas. Chang Yu'er said. Han Zhu, you choosing ascetic cultivation was the right decision. The overseas sect where the Nine Cauldrons Sage resides is not harmonious. Hundreds of disciples from the Jade Pure Holy sect who went along died, and the so-called opportunity turned out to be non-existent. I survived by staying in seclusion all the time, luckily making it back. Han Zhu felt secretly fortunate. Fortunately, I didn't follow the Nine Cauldrons Sage back then. Otherwise, I would have encountered endless troubles, and my cultivation level would definitely

not be as high as it is now. Thus, the two of them talked for a long time, until Seth leaderly came to visit, informing Han Zhu. There's a banquet at the Gluttonous Tower today to welcome the Nine Cauldrons Sage. I wonder if Elder Han would honor us with his presence? Han Zhu didn't want to continue talking with Chang Yu'er, so he planned to go with the sect leader. Han Zhu told Chang Yu'er, the master has moved over, so you don't need to go to the Jade Seclusion Peak anymore. It would be better if you also

moved here to cultivate, which would be convenient for looking after the master. Chang Yu'er joyfully agreed. She hadn't expected Han Zhu to be willing to let her move in. Immediately feeling her status in Han Zhu's heart was different, but Chang Yu'er chose a cave dwelling located between Xishuan Ferry and Xinghong Xian, nearly equidistant from both. Under the twilight, on a mountain path, Su Qi, carrying a sword, moved forward with a weathered and dusty appearance, heading towards Great Swallow. For some reason, the journey back seemed more dangerous than the way there. Recently, he encountered many demon

cultivators, each more ferocious and evil than the last. Su Qi couldn't help but glance at an old man walking on a mountaintop nearby. This person was Du Ku, a Tribulation Crossing Realm Great Cultivator he had met in the ruins of the monster-taming demon sect. Du Ku followed him along the way, helping Su Qi kill many demon cultivators. The monster-taming demon sect was destroyed, and I always feel regretful. If I cannot understand the wishes, the knot in my heart may become a heart demon when I ascend in the future, Du Ku said. Thus, he followed Su

Qi, wanting to take Su Qi as his disciple. But Su Qi already had a master and could not simply accept another. Du Ku, however, would not force a junior just because he was more powerful. Stop! Du Ku suddenly shouted, startling Su Qi. Du Ku flashed in front of Su Qi, his face dark as he said, Luo Qioma, you've been eyeing my disciple. What are your intentions? Su Qi looked over and saw a dark shadow emerge in front of him, its face indiscernible like a ghost. Your disciple, isn't this the demon master's disciple? Luo Qioma said.

Du Ku was shocked, no wonder this kid wouldn't take me as his master, he has such a significant background. Su Qi was stunned upon hearing this, ha, when did I become the disciple of the demon master? Luo Qioma coldly said, Du Ku, if you want to ascend properly, just let go, I'm taking this child with me. Su Qi asked him why he was looking for him, wondering if it was the demon master's will. Luo Qioma smirked cunningly, it is and it isn't, but I can assure you of granting you a great opportunity. At this moment,

Du Ku frowned, unsure of what to do. Luo Qioma has been famous for many years, with a cultivation at least at the Mahayana realm. The concept of an opponent doesn't really apply to him. Senior, you should go. Thank you for your care during this time, Su Qi said seriously to Du Ku. He could see that Du Ku was afraid of Luo Qioma and didn't adopt a strong stance, so he didn't want to make things difficult for Du Ku. After much hesitation, Du Ku was reluctant to leave Su Qi. Su Qi thought for a moment and

said, if you really want to resolve your obsession with the monster-taming demon sect, then go to Great Swallow and serve the Jade Pure sect for a while. I am originally from the Jade Pure sect and joined the monster-taming demon sect later. The Jade Pure sect is essentially my hometown. Saying this, he handed the Jade Pure sect token to Du Ku. Du Ku sighed, having finally reached the verge of ascension, he naturally couldn't give up a great future for the sake of a junior. What kind of logic is that? What does resolving a heart not have

to do with serving someone else? What more do you want? Isn't the entire Jade Pure sect enough for you to take disciples? Jade Pure sect? Luo Qioma seemed to think of something. Wasn't the person who killed my master's demon pet from the Jade Pure sect? Is this a coincidence or is it fate? Su Qi looked at Luo Qioma and said, take me with you. For some reason, Luo Qioma, meeting Su Qi's gaze, felt an inexplicable unease. Why do I feel like I'm about to have bad luck? While Han Zhu was cultivating peacefully at the ascetic

Immortal Mountain, others eager for adventures were still seeking opportunities outside. At this time, in a place overseas known as the Cape of Good Hope, Zhou Fan, Ma Fuqiu, and Xian Xueshe stumbled upon an ancient relic in a cave by the sea. Zhou Fan heard that this was the ancestral land of the three major sects nearby. After exploring, the trio didn't find any opportunities. Only an old ship stranded in the cave. The ship was entirely black, like a black pearl emitting a faint glow in the dark cave. The decrepit ancient ship exuded a sinister aura, with

skull symbols covering its body, emitting a faint purple glow. The damp and rotting air in the cave made it uncomfortable for the trio, and the visible bones everywhere emitted an evil aura, even making Xian Xueshe, who was well-experienced, feel uneasy. An ominous premonition kept zapping her skin like static electricity, and she continuously advised caution. At this time, Zhou Fan recognized the patterns on the ancient ship, reminiscent of the patterns Ma Fuqiu displayed while channeling his energy. Ma Fuqiu immediately activated his technique for comparison and found an astonishing similarity. Could there be a connection? Just then,

the ancient ship suddenly activated some ancient prohibition. The pattern shone brightly, and a spell barrier shot up into the sky. Xian Xueshe, sensing danger, yelled for them to retreat quickly. Unexpectedly, the prohibition condensed into several tentacles that instantly pierced into Ma Fuqiu's arms. The pain made Ma Fuqiu scream incessantly, unable to resist as more tentacles formed from the prohibition's spiritual power, wildly piercing towards Ma Fuqiu. Zhou Fan tried to help, but was continuously attacked by the tentacles, which seemed to selectively target Zhou Fan and Xian Xueshe, attacking them while chasing Ma Fuqiu like snakes after

prey, frantically biting and drilling into his body. Ma Fuqiu's eyes were filled with blood, overwhelmed by the influx of spiritual power as if about to burst. Xian Xueshe grabbed the two, intending to quickly escape this eerie place. She mobilized all her spiritual power to flee towards the cave entrance at top speed. However, the realm of the person who set the prohibition was certainly far beyond Xian Xueshe. No matter how fast she tried to escape, the tentacles could always catch up, relentlessly piercing into Ma Fuqiu's body. The intense pain nearly made Ma Fuqiu faint. Zhou Fan

wanted to help but couldn't intervene, and Xian Xueshe could only focus on fleeing with the two. Unable to turn back to save Ma Fuqiu, countless tentacles followed them, the immense force continuously pulling at Ma Fuqiu's flesh. Eventually, Ma Fuqiu's clothes couldn't withstand the tremendous force and were torn apart. Just as the three were about to reach the cave entrance, the tentacles dragged Ma Fuqiu back. The cave entrance collapsed. Only Xian Xueshe and Zhou Fan escaped, while Ma Fuqiu was trapped inside. Seeing a brother with whom he had adventured for a hundred years meet such a

fate, Zhou Fan was nearly driven to madness. He was so close, yet he could only watch as Ma Fuqiu was dragged back, helpless to intervene. The entrance had already collapsed, making it incredibly difficult to return. Zhou Fan screamed to go back and save Ma Fuqiu, but Xian Xueshe held him tightly, because she sensed a group of people coming their way. Their safety was now their primary concern. Zhou Fan also sensed the powerful auras, with three Union realm strong ones rushing towards them. Not far in front of them, several ancient ships were breaking through the waves,

surrounded by countless ugly demons and monsters. The leading ship, shouting in an incomprehensible language, seemed to be directing the other ships and monsters towards them. Zhou Fan asked Xian Xueshe if she could understand the strange speech, to which Xian Xueshe replied, I don't know, but it's definitely nothing good. That leader might well be the legendary Octopus Jones. At that moment, countless monsters swiftly attacked the two of them. The monstrous tide filled with Union realm, several nascent soul realm, more than twenty golden core realm, and numerous foundation establishment realm auras. Fortunately, there were no fusion void

realm powerhouses among them. Xian Xueshe, sword in hand, charged into the monstrous tide. She planned to deal with the three strongest ones herself, leaving the rest for Zhou Fan to handle as best as he could. As Xian Xueshe moved among the monsters, a blood mist rose, staining the sea red. Even facing several masters, she showed no sign of fear. On the other side, Zhou Fan was cutting down lower realm monsters like slicing through vegetables, killing them with his punches and causing blood and bones to fly everywhere. But even a tiger cannot withstand a pack of

wolves, and gradually, he too began to falter. Unfortunately, there was no communication between the two sides, making the battle a matter of life and death. As he was gradually surrounded by numerous monster masters, Zhou Fan activated his tyrannical body form. A terrifying pressure emanated from him, and his demonic transformation instilled fear in the fearsome monsters. Suddenly, a powerful spiritual power explosion occurred, and before the monsters could see Zhou Fan clearly, they were annihilated by his soul-shattering demonic fist. It was too late for the monsters to retreat. Zhou Fan smashed the attacking monsters with one punch,

then used his explosive demonic chant palm, a powerful spiritual power shockwave instantly destroying an enemy ship and all the demons and ghosts on it. The huge impact shocked the other enemy ships on the sea. The monsters might have been discussing how to escape, but in the next moment, they were wiped out by the frenzied Zhou Fan. Driven by rage over his brother's death, Zhou Fan brutally destroyed ship after ship. However, at that moment, a powerful oppressive force arrived, specifically, the collective pressure of five spirit transformation strong ones. Five spirit transformations against one nascent soul. You

really think highly of me. Zhou Fan roared like a madman at that moment. The five spirit transformation strong ones acted together, each throwing out a strand of true energy that instantly bound Zhou Fan's limbs. As the spirit transformation realm powerhouses pulled, the true energy ropes tightened, and one of the demons forcefully tore off one of Zhou Fan's arms. Just like that, the strong ones brutally dismembered Zhou Fan's physical body, as if tearing him apart like quartering. In his final moments, Zhou Fan was filled with unwillingness, as his story was not yet complete. Han Zhu fully

mastered the 8th level of the Six Realms of Reincarnation technique. Han Zhu mastered a new divine ability named Gate of Reincarnation. As the name suggests, this gate allows one to step into the Six Realms of Reincarnation. He can directly throw souls into the Six Realms of Reincarnation or step into the Netherworld through the Gate of Reincarnation. The disciples were speechless. Go to the Netherworld? Isn't that the same as being dead? While the disciples were pondering how to use the Gate of Reincarnation to die, Han Zhu received system notifications. Your friend Mufuju wandered into an ancient

forbidden land, and was entangled by ominous forces. Your friend Zhou Fan was hunted by three sects, burned his essence blood, and developed an evil heart. Your friend Su Qi spread bad luck, and combined with your curse, Luo Qioma's lifespan was reduced by a thousand years, a effect that will continue. Your enemy, Extinction Taoist, due to your curse, has diminished luck and an increased chance of encountering inner demons. What does ominous forces refer to? Did Zhou Fan, a main character like him, really die? Su Qi spreading bad luck to Luo Qioma. Is that a coincidence? Could

those two have encountered each other? Han Zhu fell into deep thought. Is it possible that because of the Book of Misfortunes curse, Luo Qioma encountered Su Qi? The Law of Cause and Effect is the most mysterious and profound rule between heaven and earth. Han Zhu couldn't figure it out and decided not to overthink it. It's best if Luo Qioma just dies of bad luck to completely eliminate the possibility of him seeking revenge on me. Han Zhu closed the system interface to find his disciples still discussing his Gate of Reincarnation. Yang Tiandong slapped his chest and

declared, I, Yang Tiandong, used to not believe in the Netherworld, but since Master has actually comprehended a divine ability to traverse the Netherworld, Master, you are too cool. I want to be the first to go in. Murong Qi secretly said to Sun Chang'an, does he really want to die that badly? Han Zhu ignored Yang Tiandong and quickly retracted the Gate of Reincarnation. Chik curiously asked Han Zhu, Master, you didn't call us over just to show off a doorman style magic door, did you? Han Zhu nodded and instructed them to find a place to sit. Today,

I will teach you about the Tao. If you have any doubts about your cultivation, feel free to ask. Preaching the Tao? Everyone was stunned upon hearing the idea of preaching the Tao. In their memory, Han Zhu had never done such a thing. Could the Master have taken the wrong medicine? Perhaps the sun in Great Swallow rose from the west. No, it must be that the Tribulation Crossing has scrambled the Master's brains. Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, Han Zhu explained, after reaching the Tribulation Crossing realm, my cultivation growth rate has slowed, so I can

spare some time to teach my disciples. Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed and thanked Han Zhu profusely. A proper class setup was necessary, so with a flick of his sword, Han Zhu prepared a cushion for each person. Chik, conditioned to get sleepy, started to doze off. That fat chicken, keep your eyes open and listen carefully. What I'm about to say will be useful to you in the future. The lecture began, and Han Zhu shared his way of the sword with the disciples. Although pure sword cultivators were rare, most cultivators practiced swordsmanship, as the sword is considered

the king of weapons, fitting the temperament of cultivators. What is a sword? What is the way of the sword? The tangible is called a tool, and the intangible is called the Tao. The tangible is the sword, and the intangible is the Tao. Han Zhu's teaching filled the entire Jade Pure Holy sect, resonating with all the swords in the sect. Nine Cauldrons Sage also noticed this unusual phenomenon and immediately realized that a great being was preaching the Tao. Not wanting to miss this opportunity, he quickly ordered, spread the word immediately, instruct all disciples to begin cultivating

on the spot. Instantly, everyone in the sect, from the sect leader and elders down to the smallest creatures, regardless of whether they were in the middle of using the restroom or were halfway through dual cultivation, entered a state of cultivation. After seven days, countless lights soared into the sky, and more than half of the cultivators in the Jade Pure Holy sect had made breakthroughs. At this time, within a setic immortal mountain, Han Zhu was passing on the ultimate techniques of the Way of the Sword to his disciples. Thrusting, swift as he's shooting down the Nine

Suns, emphasizes quick and precise strikes. Ripping, lifting, slashing, and wiping, agile as a group of Emperor's majestic dragons flying, focuses on unpredictable changes during a fight. Intercepting, fierce as thunder quelling its fury, emphasizes seizing the moment for a quick and decisive kill to end the battle. Finally, withdrawing the sword, tranquil as the river and sea turning to clear light, one must be resolute in action and calm in retraction. After the lecture, Han Zhu retracted the Dao charm, and all disciples gained insights. Yang Tiandong clenched his fists, resolved, I will never again harbor thoughts of leaving.

I must diligently follow Master and cultivate. Listening to Master's preaching is better than adventuring outside for a hundred years. Han Zhu gave a few instructions, and let the disciples continue their cultivation. In peaceful times, thanks to the spiritual energy of a setic immortal mountain, everyone could focus on cultivation without the strife and deception of the outside world. This was the cultivation life Han Zhu longed for. Suddenly, Han Zhu received a system notification that distressed him greatly. A terrifying pressure erupted from him, swiftly sweeping through the entire Jade Pure Holy sect and making it difficult for

anyone to breathe. Even Nine Cauldron Sage was shocked. However, after a moment, the terrifying pressure disappeared as quickly as it had appeared, leaving everyone puzzled. The always amiable and uncontentious Godslaying Elder, why would he release such terrifying pressure? Nine Cauldron Sage wiped off his cold sweat, thankful that the pressure dissipated quickly. That pressure contained destructive fluctuations. Ordinary matters could not possibly agitate Godslaying Elder. It must be that someone he cared about was in trouble. At that time, on a massive altar in a mountainous area, chaotic heavenly dog was bound by spike-filled vines. Its silver-white fur

stained with swathes of red. Demon cultivators encircled the altar in layers, and a priest-like demon cultivator, waving a magical tool, chanted, The auspicious time is upon us. With the blood of a deity, we summon the heart of a demon. Are you all prepared to welcome the arrival of the demon emperor? All hail the arrival of the demon emperor! All the demon cultivators shouted in unison, each face filled with fanaticism. What to do? Am I going to die here? Chaotic heavenly dog was so weak it started trembling, praying for someone to save it. Regret flooded its

heart. If it were given another chance, it would never leave ascetic Immortal Mountain. It would definitely listen to the chicken. Unfortunately, there were no second chances, and it only understood this as the demon cultivator's sword fell upon it. As the ceremony progressed, the demon cultivators chanted spells together, hoping for the resurrection of the demon emperor. Soon, a strange green flame ignited on the body of Chaotic Heavenly Dog, and a tall, black figure slowly emerged. Tears filled the eyes of the demon cultivators. It's him! It's him! Our hero! The flesh of the demon emperor gradually reformed

into a human shape, as if he walked out of the annals of time, wearing a purple Taoist robe and a tall hat, resembling a grim reaper from the netherworld. The demon emperor glanced at Chaotic Heavenly Dog, such a rare divine beast, and with extraordinary fate. It's a pity to die like this. With that, the demon emperor exhaled a mass of demonic energy towards Chaotic Heavenly Dog. Its body trembled for a moment. Come back to life. You still have use. Meanwhile, Hanju received another notification. Your divine pet, Chaotic Heavenly Dog, has been sacrificed and become the

mount of Demon Emperor Jinaya. Hanju instantly flew into a rage. How dare they sacrifice my dog and ride it beneath their buttocks? Who does this Demon Emperor Jinaya think he is? Hanju released a terrifying pressure. At that moment, he seemed to be the Demon Emperor himself. If you ascended to the higher realms, perhaps I wouldn't be able to find you. But as long as you are in the mortal realm, I will not let you off. In the mortal realm, even if you reach the skies, you are just at the Mahayana realm. I don't believe you

can withstand my curse. Saying so, Hanju returned to his cave and pulled out the Book of Misfortune, directly writing Jinaya's name in it. Thank you for offending me. It's just right to test my limits with you. Hanju cursed him non-stop for three months, but since Jinaya had neither affection nor hatred towards Hanju, even after three months, Hanju saw no changes in him. Hence, Hanju got up and went to find Li Qingzi, thinking of gathering some information about Demon Emperor Jinaya. Hanju's visit surprised Li Qingzi. Elder Han always keeps to himself. It's rare to see him

like this. Li Qingzi noticed Hanju's complexion. Elder Han, you've been overdoing it lately. Three months of continuous cursing had taken a toll on Hanju's body, leaving him looking as if he had been fighting Xing Hongxian for three months. Li sect leader, have you heard of someone named Jinaya? Li sect leader felt the name was familiar, and then he remembered, anyone who is a demon cultivator must know of Jinaya, the legend who once unified all demon cultivators under his rule. Hanju was puzzled. Why do you say legend? Li Qingzi explained that Jinaya had died long ago,

but his legend still circulated among demon cultivators. It's said that he was once the emperor of the most powerful dynasty in history. After ascending the throne, he governed diligently, ensuring peace and prosperity, and his nation was very strong. If he hadn't turned to evil paths later, that dynasty might have continued to this day. Legend has it that in search of eternal life, he was misled by treacherous court officials into the demon path, eventually losing his mind to demonic cultivation and turning into a madman, disappearing without a trace. His dynasty was ultimately destroyed by enemy states,

but in his madness, he lived for a thousand years with his demonic powers until he regained his sanity upon achieving great demonic cultivation. By then, dynasties had changed, and his no longer existed. Angered, he began a massacre in the mortal world, even slaughtering the entire royal family of a dynasty right in front of the reigning emperor. At that time, no one in the dynasty could stand against him, not even daring to utter his name. While there were Mahayana realm experts, most chose to ascend to avoid him. Those who dared to confront him were all killed

by him. The unrivaled Jinaya continued to recruit demon cultivators, waging wars, and eventually establishing a demonic dynasty to rule the world. At that time, most of the mortal world became a paradise for demon cultivators, a place more terrifying than hell. What happened after that? Han Ju continued to inquire. Afterward, he died, perishing in the heavenly tribulation of ascension. If he hadn't died, perhaps this world would have belonged to the demon cultivators by now. Han Ju thought seriously. The system's notifications were never wrong, so it seemed that Jinaya had indeed been resurrected with the bloodline of

Dogi. After understanding the situation, Han Ju stood up to leave. Li Qinzhi stopped him and asked, Elder Han, why are you inquiring about this person? Could it be that the demon cultivators are making a move again? Han Ju didn't want to say too much, so he told him he was just asking casually and not to worry. Seeing Han Ju's hesitant appearance, Li Qinzhi knew something was wrong. The peaceful days of the Jade Pure sect were coming to an end, cursing for three months with no effect. It seems I need to find a way to make

Jinaya aware of me, but also ensure he can't find me. As Han Ju walked back to his cave, passing by Xishuan Fairy's cave, Han Ju rarely saw his master. Xishuan Fairy was still as ethereal and detached as ever, unchanged for a hundred years. Han Ju excitedly greeted her, Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening, Master. It's been a long time. To his surprise, Xishuan Fairy touched Han Ju's forehead with a snap. Han Ju, with your cultivation level from tribulation crossing to energy cultivation, it's almost impossible for you to have left this sect or to be

injured. Aside from a cultivation mishap, I can't think of any other possibility. Damn! The side effects of using the Book of Misfortune are too obvious and have been noticed. Although the internal injuries have healed, there's been a constant lack of vitality. Is it a feeling of being overdrawn? Ah, indeed. Aye. I knew it. There comes a day for every man. I've said before, cultivation must be balanced with rest. Preaching the Tao is very draining, and you went on for seven days. Then, without resting, you continued cultivating. No matter how high your cultivation is, you can't

endure that. What? What do you mean? Master, Xishuan Fairy expressed regret. During those days you were preaching, I was traveling outside. It's such a pity I missed it. Having preached for seven days, saying so, Xishuan Fairy began rummaging through her storage bag and pulled out a can of tea leaves. This duck shit aroma tea was found in an ancient relic. It can warm the body and boost energy, strengthen the foundation, and is perfect for you. Take it back and drink it. Opening the can, Han Ju found the tea emitting a spiritual mist. Clearly not ordinary.

It seems Master has had quite the fruitful travels recently. Xishuan Fairy smiled slightly. It's all thanks to you holding down the fort, allowing us elders not only to improve our fortunes, but also to practice outside with peace of mind. Before you came to the Jade Pure Sect, it was common for the elders to return empty-handed. Han Ju felt somewhat embarrassed being praised by his master, but then he noticed his damned disciples were already enjoying his melon. Hurry back to practice your swordplay. Place the tea in the cave to be worshipped. After hundreds of years, you

dare to eat your master's melon. At that moment, Xishuan Fairy said lightly, I envy your disciples. Seeing you is their greatest fortune. I've spent my life in seclusion and never heard a Great One preach. I missed out on such a rare opportunity just because I was traveling. Is this my fate? Of course not, Master. You haven't missed anything. My preaching isn't something that needs to be announced to the world. If Master doesn't mind, we can have a one-on-one session. You can come to my cave, or I can go to Master's cave. Xishuan Fairy smiled slightly.

If it doesn't inconvenience fellow Taoist Han, that would be acceptable. Just as the atmosphere was becoming somewhat subtle, a large face inconveniently appeared in front of them. Elder Han. There's big trouble. Actually, I've noticed something was off for a while now. I didn't expect Elder Han to be monitoring the movements of demon cultivators at all times. Don't worry. You're not fighting alone. Whether it's against demon cultivators or the Demon Emperor, we of the Righteous Path will stand by you without hesitation. Han Zhu said, I was just asking casually. Li Qingzi responded, we are secretly carrying

out a demon hunting operation. I didn't expect that Elder Han, without stepping outside, already knew about it. You are indeed profound and unfathomable. Li Qingzi explained, actually, we had already discovered signs of a resurgence of the demon cult years ago. But investigating demon cultivators has been fraught with difficulties. We still don't understand the intentions behind the demon cult's resurgence. But Elder Han, your inquiry about Jinaiha's past has led us to discover their true intentions. It's not just about unifying the religious beliefs of demon cultivators. Their real intent is likely the resurrection of the Demon Emperor.

We must eradicate them in their nascent stage. Otherwise, the dark history of the Demon Emperor's reign will repeat itself. After all, there have always been few Mahayana realm experts throughout history, and even fewer who can contend with them. After Li Qingzi's explanation, Han Zhu had already guessed that the reason the demon cult used Doggy as a sacrifice was mostly related to the resurrection of the Demon Emperor. At this moment, Han Zhu also received a system notification, Jinaiha, Hatred, 3 stars, Mahayana Realm Level 3, Immortal Realm Demon Emperor, whose demon disciples sacrificed your divine pet chaotic

Heavenly Dog to summon Jinaiha back from the demonic abyss. While Li Qingzi was still praising Han Zhu for his astute calculations, Han Zhu urged him to recall all external informants immediately, as staying outside for one more day increased the danger. Saying this, Han Zhu headed straight for his cave. Now that he had a hatred rating, cursing Jinaiha urgently was the most important task. Although Jinaiha's cultivation was impaired due to his resurrection, he was not someone the current righteous path cultivators could handle. Only Xianqing Jun, his big wife, could completely overpower Jinaiha, yet she was also

mixed up with the demon path. The concern now was if Jinaiha teamed up with them, the world would be thrown into chaos again. Li Qingzi watched Han Zhu leave, thinking, even if the sky falls, Elder Han will hold it up. I should stop worrying unnecessarily. Li Qingzi turned back to look at Xishuan Fairy's cave. Junior Sister, may I come in to catch up? Xishuan Fairy coldly responded with one word, no. A dejected Li Qingzi left. Back in his cave, Han Zhu immediately opened the system to see why Jinaiha suddenly harbored hatred towards him. Could it

be that Doggy betrayed him after becoming a mount? The system notification popped up. Jinaiha extracted the soul of Chaotic Heavenly Dog and became aware of your existence, harboring dread towards you. If given a chance, he will surely seek to kill you. Current hatred level is 3 stars. Han Zhu then immediately opened Doggy's profile, finding that Doggy's icon was not grayed out, indicating that Doggy was still alive. Now, going out to find Doggy might not yield any results, and even if we do find him, it's not certain we could bring him back safe and whole. The

priority remains to improve my cultivation and reach the Mahayana realm as soon as possible. As he spoke, Han Zhu took out the Book of Misfortune again, since it can take immediate effect. Jinaiha, just wait for your demise. A year later, it was the day for the Jade Pure Holy Sect to select elders again. Xiao Yao, as the assessing elder, was selecting disciples for the examination. Excuse me, are you from the Jade Pure Sect? An elderly voice sounded behind Xiao Yao. I'm really sorry to disturb you. My young friend instructed me to greet you before entering

the Jade Pure Sect. Xiao Yao was surprised. The person's cultivation must be significant to approach so silently. At this moment, Xiao Yao also sensed the aura of a demon cultivator from the visitor. A demon cultivator? Are you here to cast your lot with us? The elderly man immediately waved his hand. I've long since abandoned the dark path. My own sect was destroyed, so under the instruction of a young friend, I've decided to seek refuge in the Jade Pure Sect to contribute my humble efforts and settle my last ties, with no ill intentions whatsoever. Hearing that

a demon cultivator had come to offer his services, the candidate disciples immediately expressed their discontent. Why should a demon cultivator be allowed to compete with us? However, Xiao Yao said, the Jade Pure Holy Sect embraces all under heaven. If a demon cultivator repents and turns to righteousness, we welcome them. Those with notable strength can even be accepted as honored guests and receive offerings. However, to be selected, one must start from the Spirit Transformation Realm Level 3. Would the elder care to demonstrate your ability? The elderly man with a hoarse voice said, becoming a guest elder

is not bad. A duel might not be very friendly, so I'll just show a little of my ability. My apologies for any offense. With that, the elderly man instantly released his pressure, and all the candidate disciples were blown away and knocked unconscious in an instant. Even the beasts used for assessment died in droves. In a blink of an eye, the elderly man retracted his pressure as if nothing had happened. The elderly man trembled. Was that sufficient? If there are no objections, I'd be grateful if you could notify the Jade Pure Sect. I'd like to process

my joining formalities today. Even the blind Xiao Yao was shocked into opening his eyes. You, Tribulation Crossing Realm. In the blink of an eye, several more years passed, and Han Zhu once again celebrated his centennial birthday. The system always had a big gift for him on such occasions. Detected you have reached 500 years of age, taking another step in life. You have the following choices. 1. Exit seclusion. Follow the human path. Become renowned throughout the world, and receive a Taiyi Spiritual Treasure. 2. Continue cultivating. Stay away from worldly affairs. Do not actively provoke trouble, and

receive a Taiyi Spiritual Treasure. Since the rewards are the same, I'll follow my heart. Han Zhu silently chooses the second option. You have chosen to continue cultivating, staying away from worldly affairs, and receive a Taiyi Spiritual Treasure. 9-Fold Sky-Stepping Boots. A Taiyi Grade 6 Rank Spiritual Treasure, containing the true essence of wind, capable of ascending to the heavens in one step, reaching the 9th layer of the sky. Not bad. A Spiritual Treasure that can enhance my ability to flee. The system really knows me well. He decides to give his currently worn 9-Star Spirit-Stepping Boots to

Xing Hongxian. Eager to test the effects, Han Zhu immediately jumps out of his cave and starts to fly using the power of the 9-Fold Sky-Stepping Boots. With his left foot stepping on the right, and his right foot stepping on the left, the earth below becomes tiny in just one step. He propels himself upward several times, spiraling into the sky. Looking down, he sees that the mortal realm of this world is not round like Earth, but an incredibly vast continent surrounded by countless stars twinkling faintly. Han Zhu takes another step, intending to delve deeper into the

universe, but he unexpectedly hits an invisible barrier head on, quite hard. Looking up, all he sees is emptiness, nothing visible. Han Zhu touches the barrier. Is ascending through this barrier? Is the immortal realm beyond it? Han Zhu throws a powerful punch, but the invisible barrier remains unreactive. He then takes out his Primordial Judgment Sword, planning to try with a powerful move. At this moment, a voice from behind stops him. Don't bother. The immortal realm is not beyond this barrier. Even a Mahayana realm expert cannot break through this barrier, but reaching here means you must at

least be at the Tribulation Crossing Realm. Those at the Union Realm cannot get up here. Han Zhu turns around warily. The system notification identifies the speaker as Du Ku, formerly a disciple of the monster-taming demon Set. Currently a wandering rogue cultivator at the third level of the Tribulation Crossing Crossing Level 3, I truly didn't expect there to still be remnants of the monster-taming demon Set. Han Zhu sneered. Without waiting for a response, Han Zhu directly used the Three Pure Worlds Extermination. Following the system's notification sound, the battle ended in one second. Han Zhu could easily

eliminate Du Ku. After reaching the Tribulation Crossing Realm, Han Zhu could simulate battles in his mind, and to prevent being attacked in a moment of distraction, he adjusted the trial time to one second. If he couldn't beat his opponent in that time, he could simply flee. Since he could defeat him, Han Zhu decided to have a further chat with Du Ku. Since the Immortal Realm is not beyond this barrier, then where is it? Could fellow Taoist enlighten me? Du Ku began to explain about the Immortal Realm starting with the barrier and the stars. The stars

beyond are merely illusions created by the magical treasures of Immortals, and the mortal world here has been trapped by the Heavenly Laws since its inception. Under these laws, everyone is a prisoner, but with the permission of these laws, one can ascend. The minimum requirement for ascension set by the Heavenly Laws is reaching the Tribulation Crossing Realm. After facing the Ascension Thunder Tribulation, one can leap out of this world. Han Zhu then asked, why haven't you ascended? Fellow Taoist, Du Ku said he had a pact with a young friend from the Jade Pure Sect to guard

this place for a hundred years to settle their karma before ascending. The young friend he made a pact with is named Su Qi. Does he have any living relatives? Mentioning relatives made Han Zhu's heart go cold. Why do you seek his relatives? To Han Zhu's surprise, Du Ku bent down in sorrow. It's my incompetence. The young friend was captured by Luo Qioma, and I fear his chances are slim now. If he has any living relatives, I thought to support them as a way to honor my friend. After hearing this, Han Zhu no longer hid the

truth. I must tell you, Su Qi is a disciple of mine. Han Zhu. Du Ku was shocked. Could you be the Godslaying Elder that the young friend spoke of? No wonder your cultivation is so high. Since we are all part of the same sect, the Jade Pure Holy Sect will not treat you poorly. Saying so, Han Zhu reached into his robe and took out a Godslaying Token. Since you've come from afar, why not become a guest elder in our sect? You won't need to go out. Just focus on your cultivation. With this token, no one

in the sect will dare to trouble you. Du Ku expressed his gratitude. That would be wonderful. I've also passed the elder assessment previously. After that, the two planned to return to the sect together. Han Zhu reassured Du Ku with a pat on the back. Don't worry, Elder. With Su Qi following Luo Qioma, it's hard to say who will be the unlucky one first. On the way back, Du Ku warned Han Zhu. The five great powers of the Demon Path have already awakened, and chaos will soon engulf the world. The Jade Pure Holy Sect should prepare

early. If fellow Taoist Han has thoughts of ascending, I can offer my help to leap out of this world together. Han Zhu thanked Du Ku for his kind offer. The conflicts in the Immortal Realm are probably more severe than in the Mortal Realm. I, Han Zhu, would definitely not rashly ascend without the ability to protect myself. Du Ku shook his head with a smile. It seems fellow Taoist Han has a long life ahead, and cultivation really does depend on one's natural talent. Speaking of which, who exactly are the five great powers of the Demon Path

you mentioned? Du Ku listed them, Luo Qioma, the White-Haired Witch, Greedy Demon Arhat, Blood Demon Ancestor, and the Demon Lord. And what are their cultivation levels? Mahayana Realm or Half-Step Mahayana? Do we in the Righteous Path not have powers that can contend with them? There are indeed such powers, but most are close to ascending and unwilling to emerge and make enemies. As they spoke, the two had already returned to the sect. Han Zhu looked up seriously and said, Since fellow Taoist has shared so much with me, I will also tell you something that currently only

the sect leader knows. Du Ku looked puzzled. Please feel free to speak, fellow Taoist Han. The Demon Emperor has been resurrected. Elder, do you think it could be related to these five great powers of the Demon Path? Upon hearing this, Du Ku's face changed dramatically. The Demon Emperor is resurrected? This is bad. At the same time, the sect leader also learned that a Tribulation Crossing Realm guest elder had come to the sect. He immediately ordered preparations for a luxurious cave dwelling to welcome him. Above the sea of clouds, a dark cloud raced through the sky,

upon which two figures were seated in meditation, one of whom was Su Qi. Senior, where are we heading exactly? Su Qi inquired. Ever since following Luo Qioma, they had been wandering, frequently encountering natural disasters, and accidentally entering ancient forbidden lands, which was incredibly harrowing. Is this great opportunity you mentioned really true or not? Su Qi asked impatiently. Luo Qioma coldly replied, All you do is ask. Don't you ever get tired? Without these mishaps, we would have already arrived. You're just a jinx. However, Su Qi disagreed with this accusation. You call me a jinx, but why

is it always you who ends up unlucky? While your high cultivation level may not mind, my frail body can't take much more. Indeed, along the way, under the dual curse of Su Qi's bad luck and Han Ju's curse, Luo Qioma had been incredibly unfortunate. Periodically, they would be struck by heavenly punishments, encounter a group of creepers in the wild, get attacked by sharks during tornadoes in the sky, and upon entering a legendary ancient secret realm, not only did they gain nothing, but calling out the names of ancient powers almost obliterated them. Although Su Qi also

suffered, his injuries were only skin deep. Luo Qioma attributed all their misfortunes to Su Qi being a bad omen, while Su Qi didn't see it that way, considering he had always managed to turn misfortune into fortune before. Despite the setbacks, they were finally nearing their destination. Luo Qioma pointed to a region ahead where dark clouds and thunderstorms were dense. We're almost there. The person I'm taking you to see is the Demon Emperor. Hearing the name for the first time, Su Qi asked about the relationship between the Demon Emperor and the Demon Master. Were they brothers?

Luo Qioma explained they were merely from the same demon path, with no substantial relationship. Then who is stronger? Luo Qioma wasn't sure, only that the Demon Emperor had debuted earlier and achieved higher status among the demons. Luo Qioma warned Su Qi to speak less upon arrival and to act according to his mood. Soon, they encountered a giant sandworm. Luo Qioma sighed, resigned, ah, used to it. Meanwhile, in a dilapidated royal palace, chaotic heavenly dog lay beside a dragon throne, its neck bound by a black collar, making it look more like a guard dog. Doggy numbly

stared ahead as if it had lost its soul. We're finally back. Do you know how prosperous my dynasty was back then? Qi Naihe murmured to himself. Chaotic heavenly dog didn't respond, having grown accustomed to Qi Naihe's soliloquies. In its eyes, Qi Naihe was definitely mad. Qi Naihe became more excited as he spoke. Move to recite a poem in this moment. I stirred the foundations of a hundred generations, wielded the long whip to govern the realm, swallowed all directions to obliterate immoral gates, tread upon the supreme to command the universe, wielded the hammer and whip to

lash the world. My might shook the four seas. Before he could finish, the sound of footsteps approached. Excellent! The achievements of the demon emperor shall be extolled for thousands of generations. Two figures entered the hall. The demon emperor coldly inquired, Who goes there? Doggy also spat. Who's that? Flattering a madman from so far away. I am Luo Qioma, hearing of your majesty's awakening. I've come to offer my service, Luo Qioma said with a bow and a smile. Qi Naihe scrutinized him without expression. Was it you who arranged for someone to summon me? Speak! What reward

do you seek? If your majesty could once again rule the world, that would be my greatest wish. Luo Qioma replied with a smile. What do you mean by that? If I ascend in the future, I will surely join the demon palace and the higher realms. Unifying the world under the demon path and controlling the moral realm is the mission entrusted to us by the demon palace in our dreams. Qi Naihe's eyes lit up. The higher realms demon palace. If I ascend, would the demon palace deign to guide me? If your majesty can reclaim the supreme

throne, the demon palace will surely assist you during the ascension tribulation. Qi Naihe was delighted by this news and quickly invited Luo Qioma to take a seat. Then, Qi Naihe frowned slightly at Su Qi, asking, and who might this be? Chaotic Heavenly Dog also noticed Su Qi and was shocked speechless. Isn't this the disciple of my master? Luo Qioma introduced him as the closed-door disciple of the demon master, explaining that the demon master was busy cultivating and had sent him to serve. Qi Naihe was displeased, sending just a disciple to serve me. Is this how

the demon master treats me? Luo Qioma explained that the demon master has always been a loner, reclusive and bloodthirsty. His absence might be for the best. Sending a disciple signifies his stance and could help us unify the demon path more swiftly. Su Qi couldn't recognize Doggy, thinking this dog didn't look much like a dog at all. It was only then Doggy remembered the last time they parted. It was still a puppy. Luo Qioma gave Su Qi a meaningful look. This is the great opportunity Wan mentioned. Aren't you going to pay your respects? Left with no

choice, Su Qi reluctantly paid his respects to the demon emperor. However, Su Qi's salute made Qi Naihe feel a chill down his spine. He pointed to Chaotic Heavenly Dog beside him and told Su Qi, from now on, you will be responsible for taking care of my dog. Becoming a servant tasked with dog care, Su Qi was naturally displeased, but dared not express his anger. Chaotic Heavenly Dog, on the other hand, was secretly pleased. Could it be that Su Qi was sent by the master to rescue him? This was good. At least someone familiar was by

his side. Now, more than ever, it needed to find an opportunity to reveal its identity to him. I need you to do something for me, Qi Naihe said indifferently to Luo Qioma. What is it? Go to the Great Swallow, find a sect named Jade Pure Sect, and kill a cultivator named Han Ju. Upon hearing this, both Chaotic Heavenly Dog and Su Qi were shocked. Luo Qioma was stunned, again with the Jade Pure Sect. Why does the demon emperor also want to target the Jade Pure Sect? Luo Qioma laughed helplessly. You really don't beat around the

bush, do you? We've only just met, and you're already sending me on errands. Qi Naihe stressed the importance of the matter, urging his trusted official to set off without delay. I'll go when I have time, Luo Qioma verbally agreed, but he didn't take it to heart. The Great Swallow was too far, and he couldn't be bothered to go. Moreover, the demon lord had already taken on this task. There was no need for him to go as well. Luo Qioma felt uncomfortable with Qi Naihe's orders, giving me tasks right after we meet. I said I was

willing to serve you, but that was just a polite remark. You're just a tool, and you dare to act so high and mighty with me? But what did this cultivator named Han Ju do to Qi Naihe to make him want him dead? Qi Naihe has only just returned. Luo Qioma became curious about Han Ju. Meanwhile, on the other side, Han Ju was sipping milk tea while watching his disciples spar. After breaking through to the nascent soul realm, Murong Qi has always wanted to test his skills against the Dark Prison Chicken. Yang Tiandong also got up

to join him, relying on his higher cultivation level. The Dark Prison Chicken often bullied Yang Tiandong and the others, but since Chicken Lord was of a higher generation, none of them dared to complain. Just then, Han Ju received a system notification. Luo Qioma, 4th level of the Mahayana realm, one of the Five Venerables of the Demon Path, displeased that Qi Naihe didn't give him face. He became interested in you, whom Qi Naihe wants to kill. Current favorability is one star. Han Ju was puzzled. What is this? Cursing you every day and now developing feelings? Han

Ju found it amusing. Were the Five Venerables of the Demon Path and Qi Naihe going to have an internal conflict? He immediately took out the Book of Misfortune, wanting to continue messing with Luo Qioma's mentality. Perhaps the irritable Luo Qioma would end up tearing his face off with the Demon Emperor. During this period, Sun Chang'an discovered that Fang Liang's cultivation was stuck at the 9th level of the Foundation Establishment realm, seemingly reaching his limit and unable to advance further. In fact, Fang Liang's speed of advancement was already considered very fast compared to the outside world,

but this is the Ascetic Immortal Mountain, where the spiritual energy is incredibly dense, making his progress seem slow. Sun Chang'an wanted Han Ju to help find the reason. Fang Liang, unable to improve his cultivation, has been dispirited lately. Han Ju naturally knew the reason, but he wanted Fang Liang to think he was just an ordinary person. So he said, there's no issue, it's just that the aptitude is too poor. You just need to diligently practice ascetic cultivation. Sun Chang'an was somewhat doubtful. Is it really just a matter of persisting with ascetic cultivation? Han Ju replied,

Ascetic Immortal Mountain does not keep the idol. I see potential in him. Hearing these words, Fang Liang felt somewhat ashamed, indeed compared to his uncles. He was now completely useless. The uncles have already reached the Nascent Soul realm, and even the master's demon pet has a higher cultivation level. I really envy them for learning so much from the master. Meanwhile, outside the Grand Hall of the Jade Pure Sect, Nine Cauldron Sage was also watching the sky where a battle of magic was unfolding. Such scenes no longer caused much impact nowadays, as the number of Nascent

Soul realm cultivators in the Jade Pure Sect was increasing, and the Nascent Soul realm was no longer the top level within the Jade Pure Sect. It was precisely because of this. Since the sect leader Li Qingzi had a lower cultivation level, many of the elders with higher cultivation levels became arrogant, increasingly neglecting their duties within the sect. This made Nine Cauldron Sage feel uneasy. He scolded the elders to return to their duties and not to waste cultivation resources by being idle all day. Clearly, he was more suitable to be the sect leader than Li Qingzi,

especially since Nine Cauldron Sage was at the ninth level of the Fusion Void realm, very close to the Union realm. With very few in the Jade Pure Sect stronger than him, the elders dared not show any disrespect towards him. Nine Cauldron Sage, looking at the battle in the sky, couldn't help but exclaim, even the demon pet of the Godslaying Elder has cultivation that could match mine. I must hurry with my advancement, especially since the demonic sects have already started to stir. At that time, outside an ancient secret realm overseas, a fierce battle had just ended.

Xian Chuxiu and Zhou Fan had finally killed all the enemies. Over the years, Zhou Fan, in order to rescue Mefuqiu trapped in the secret realm, had always refused to leave with Xian Chuxiu. He firmly believed his good brother was not dead. After clearing the enemies, he would continue to dig through the ruins. Xian Chuxiu advised him, this relic is sealed from the inside, and those below the Tribulation Crossing realm cannot open it from the outside. But Zhou Fan wouldn't listen, persisting in his efforts day after day for years. Zhou Fan said, even if it's just

a corpse, I want to bring Mefuqiu back. Xian Chuxiu gave him a final deadline, they couldn't continue fighting with those three sects any longer. Perhaps it was Zhou Fan's sincerity, but not long after, he actually found the entrance mechanism. As the mechanism was activated, Zhou Fan was blasted away by a powerful force. Xian Chuxiu hadn't expected that Zhou Fan, with his level of cultivation, could open the mechanism. A huge surge of energy shot into the sky, but it wasn't the ominous force from before. As the energy dissipated, the entrance to the relic reappeared in front

of them. Zhou Fan rushed in impatiently, but was held back by Xian Chuxiu. She vaguely felt that there was something very strange about the relic. The relic was on the verge of collapse, and they proceeded very carefully. Deep inside the relic, they finally felt the presence of a living person. It was indeed Mefuqiu, he was still alive. Zhou Fan eagerly jumped to Mefuqiu's side, calling out to his good brother. But when Mefuqiu slowly lifted his head, his eyes revealed a terrifying, murderous intent. Without saying a word, Mefuqiu slowly stood up, while Xian Chuxiu didn't notice

any trace of the demonic aura from before. Zhou Fan happily talked about the battles of the past few years, also failing to notice anything odd about Mefuqiu. At that moment, with a sudden thrust, Mefuqiu's hand pierced into Zhou Fan's chest. It was too late for Xian Chuxiu to stop it. Mefuqiu's other hand grabbed Zhou Fan's shoulder, forcefully tore out Zhou Fan's heart. Mefuqiu coldly stared at Zhou Fan's beating heart, as if the person in front of him was not a brother, but an enemy. Zhou Fan was dead, and Xian Chuxiu, in a rage, attacked Mefuqiu.

This story pauses here, while on another side, Han Zhu also began a magical duel. His opponent was his own first wife, the Demon Lord, Han Zhu. Using all his skills, still found it difficult to defend, as Xian Qingjun was overwhelmingly strong. Despite repeatedly losing, he continued to fight, barely managing to last two and a half minutes. Despite all the difficulty, Han Zhu set Xian Qingjun's combat level to the third level of the Mahayana realm, yet still had no chance of winning. It seems that encountering the Demon Emperor now would likely result in death. Han Zhu,

having reached the third level of the Tribulation Crossing realm, found his cultivation progress significantly slower, which greatly troubled him. Just then, Han Zhu received a system notification. What? Zhou Fan died again? The world is full of demon cultivators. Chaos is truly about to ensue. In order to improve his cultivation as quickly as possible, Han Zhu went into seclusion for three years. The first thing he did upon leaving seclusion was to visit his master and senior sister, planning to upgrade their heavenly puppets. Just then, Sun Qian'an came to Han Zhu in a fluster. Master, you've finally

come out of seclusion. Sun Qian'an was usually calm, so Han Zhu asked him what was wrong. Sun Qian'an said it was about Fang Lian. During the three years of your seclusion, Fang Lian's cultivation has been stuck at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment realm. Even using elixirs has not led to any progress. Master, you said three years ago that all he needed to do was diligently practice ascetic cultivation, but now it seems his talent has really hit its limit. Han Zhu then remembered that the reason Fang Lian couldn't advance might be related to his

background. The so-called luck of heaven and earth manifesting once breaking through to the Golden Core realm is indeed not so simple after all. At that moment, Han Zhu called Fang Lian into the innate cave abode. Fang Lian was very nervous. Could it be that the Grandmaster is going to expel me from the sect? Sun Qian'an comforted him, with your master personally intervening, there shouldn't be a big problem. Han Zhu arranged for Sun Qian'an to go to Chan Yu'er and Xishuan Fairy's cave abodes to bring them over, and also to bring the Heavenly Puppet. Watching Fang

Lian follow Han Zhu into the innate cave abode, Chick said with a sad face, you guys have good talents, poor little Liang's cultivation has come to an end. The master usually doesn't interfere too much with others' paths of cultivation. Actually, instead of continuing to practice ascetic cultivation on the mountain, it might be better for him to go down the mountain and live as a wealthy man for a hundred or so years. Hearing Chick say this, Sun Qian'an was naturally unhappy. After all, Fang Lian was his disciple, but all Sun Qian'an could do was silently pray

for him in his heart. I hope your Grandmaster can help you get through this, especially since your fishing skills are the best in our circle. Inside the innate cave abode at this time, Han Zhu began to probe into Fang Lian's body with six paths of spiritual power. Han Zhu found that Fang Lian had already met all the conditions to break through to the Golden Core stage, but there was a clump of energy blocking his energy center, preventing him from forming the Golden Core. This energy seemed like some kind of seal or restriction, strong enough to

block the Yunnan realm. If Han Zhu hadn't advanced to the Tribulation Crossing realm, he probably wouldn't have discovered it, which explains why Sun Qian'an didn't know the reason. Han Zhu asked Fang Lian, you have been my disciple for some time now, have you realized what the pursuit of cultivation is? Fang Lian was extremely nervous, hesitating for a moment before answering, to become an immortal. What is the purpose of becoming immortal? Of course, it's for eternal life. Han Zhu couldn't help feeling reassured, his cultivation might not be impressive, but his ability to persevere truly embodies my

teachings. Will you be hindered by power, benefits, or women in your cultivation path in the future? Fang Lian confidently answered, I will not be, neither in the past nor in the future. I was orphaned and alone, and it was the Grandmaster who took me in. I deeply agree with the Grandmaster's philosophy of cultivation, everything else is inferior, only cultivation is supreme. Han Zhu nodded with satisfaction. If I were to give you a chance to soar, what would you do afterwards? Fang Lian, overwhelmed with honor, immediately knelt down. I would be willing to shatter my bones

and scatter my ashes for the Grandmaster. No, that's wrong. I mean to immerse myself in cultivation, not concern myself with worldly affairs, and never cause trouble for the Grandmaster. Seeing Fang Lian so earnest and frightened, Han Zhu nodded with satisfaction. That's more like it. Then, Han Zhu immediately started using the Six Realms of Reincarnation technique. Since your master says your talent is lacking, then as your Grandmaster, I will create talent for you. Surrounding Han Zhu, strands of golden light began to converge. Fang Lian, feeling the surging spiritual power around him, showed a face filled with

surprise and awe. How high is the Grandmaster's cultivation level? At that moment, Han Zhu received a system notification. Your Grand Disciple Fang Lian's favorability towards you has increased, currently at five stars. Just five stars, not the highest yet. I need to find a way to inspire this kid further. Han Zhu directed the condensed golden light into Fang Lian's energy center. Fang Lian felt his spiritual sense being pulled out in an instant. When he opened his eyes again, he seemed to be in the vast Great Void, surrounded by countless golden lights. Then, he heard Han Zhu's

ethereal voice. The approach to assaulting the Golden Core Realm varies from person to person. The vast majority directly gather the Golden Core. Very few can enter the Great Void with their soul, using the resonance between heaven and man to gather the Golden Core. Even rarer are those who can, through their talent, use their bodies as the seed to open a new path. With that exception, these individuals become unparalleled powerhouses. Fang Lian felt his soul fiercely colliding with the Great Void, the energy of the Great Void gradually condensing before him. Bound by fate? How could my

disciple be limited by fate? If so, today I, Han Zhu, am willing to sacrifice my cultivation and lifespan to break this damned fate. Under Han Zhu's influence, the energy of the Great Void gradually condensed into a Golden Core. Han Zhu's words shocked Fang Lian. The Grandmaster was willing to sacrifice his cultivation for him? Fang Lian's eyes reddened. To fully play the part, Han Zhu shouted, my disciple is advancing, not even heaven can stop him. After saying this, the clump of energy inside Fang Lian was shattered by Han Zhu. With Han Zhu's help, Fang Lian's spiritual

power uncontrollably began to condense into a Golden Core. At the same time, Han Zhu received another system notification. Your Grand Disciple Fang Lian's favorability towards you has increased, currently at 6 stars. Han Zhu was delighted, thinking that old tricks really do win hearts. Little Lian, I have cleared all obstacles for you. The rest is up to you. If you find yourself to be special in the future, I hope you consider yourself ordinary, as that is the way to a long life. Do not follow in Zhou Fan's footsteps. Meanwhile, an anomaly appeared in the sky above

the cave abode, with the seven-colored radiance shining above the jade-pure sect. Xichuan Ferry knew this meant a prodigy had been born. As the energy clump dispersed, countless true energies swept through Fang Lian's energy center like a storm. Fang Lian felt as if his meridians had been unblocked. His senses became clearer, and the world appeared entirely different to him. Soon, it began to snow in the sky. Gold snow. Clouds morphed into human shapes, resembling celestial maidens scattering flowers, astonishing all disciples of the jade-pure sect. Xichuan Ferry caught a snowflake. This is heavenly bestowed fortune gold snow.

It seems a prodigy has indeed been born just now. Chang'an was shocked internally, wondering if his master had really changed Little Lian's fate against the heavens. Inside the jade-pure sect's main hall, Nine-Cauldron Sage, looking at the gold snow filling the sky, exclaimed, This is the first time I've seen such a phenomenon since I started cultivating. The elders all agreed that the fortune of our jade-pure holy sect was about to greatly increase. In the sky, clouds churned as dragons and phoenixes chased and played with each other. Outside the innate cave abode, Dark Prison Chicken, Yang Tiandong,

and others were also astonished, Xich exclaiming in wonder, Indeed, this phoenix looks exactly like me. Inside the cave abode, Han Zhu looked at Fang Lian and said lightly, Congratulations. You've reached the Golden Core Realm. After helping Fang Lian break through to the Golden Core Realm, Han Zhu instructed him to continue his ascetic cultivation in peace and keep a low profile, cautioning him not to follow Zhou Fan's disastrous path due to rapid progress in the future. At the time, Fang Lian did not fully grasp Han Zhu's meaning, but he was certain that following the Grandmaster's advice

could never be wrong. The next day, when he left the innate cave abode, he felt as if he had lived through an era. Yang Tiandong was the first to notice Fang Lian's successful breakthrough. Fang Lian, tears of gratitude, said, The Grandmaster sacrificed his cultivation progress and lifespan to reshape my talent. Everyone was shocked, wondering if the heavenly anomaly was due to the reshaping of his talent. Han Zhu, inside the cave abode, told them not to make a fuss and to keep Fang Lian's matter a secret. With the revival of demon cultivators, none of you should

wander off the mountain. Stay and continue your ascetic cultivation here. Yang Tiandong silently marveled at how high his master's cultivation must be to reshape talent and trigger a heavenly phenomenon. Yang Tiandong also hadn't expected the master to sacrifice his cultivation progress and lifespan for a disciple with mediocre talent, a truly unprecedented event. Murong Qi's respect for the Grandmaster deepened even further. Although the Grandmaster was always aloof, he was absolutely clear about his stance towards his disciples. The happiest was Sun Chang'an, as no one was more concerned about Fang Lian's cultivation than he was. Seeing Fang

Lian still crying, he stepped forward to comfort him, saying that his Grandmaster must have his reasons for acting this way, and he would not have intervened without being certain of success. The master has always been dedicated to ascetic cultivation and does not easily accept disciples. There are many outstanding disciples in the Jade Pure Sect, so why are there only a few of us here? When I was trapped by emotions, I was fortunate to be taken in and guided by your Grandmaster, which helped me find my life's value and mission. The reason why the spiritual energy

of Ascetic Immortal Mountain is so dense is thanks to me and the Fusang Tree. Chick joined in. Do you think I'm just here to eat because I'm fat? I am a genuine phoenix, through and through. Yang Tiandong also touched his head. My adoptive fathers outside always say I have the bloodline of a demon saint, though I haven't seen how powerful I am yet. Morong Qi shook his head in confusion. What about me? I don't have anything special. Sun Chang'an waved his hand. Haven't you noticed that you understand many things without being taught? Morong Qi had

an epiphany. Could that be my talent? In short, there are no idle people on Ascetic Immortal Mountain. To be precise, no ordinary people. We are all aces chosen by him. Fang Lian then understood why the threshold for Ascetic Immortal Mountain was so high. No wonder no one else had been admitted after him. Thinking of this, Fang Lian cried again, realizing it wasn't that he was inadequate, but that the Grandmaster wanted him to continue Ascetic cultivation and wait for an opportunity. In his heart, Fang Lian kowtowed to Han Zhu a hundred times. The Grandmaster has given

me a chance, and I will not let him down. Thus, in less than half a year, Fang Lian firmly consolidated the first level of the Golden Core Realm and then started improving his cultivation like flying. A legend was officially beginning from this moment. With the talent of a child of heaven and earth, plus his hard work and diligence, Fang Lian reached the third level of the Golden Core Realm in just three years. Qiq, Sun Chang'an, and the others were completely dumbfounded. At this rate, it wouldn't be long before Fang Lian's cultivation caught up with or

even surpassed theirs. One day, the sky exhibited another phenomenon. A fireball fell from the sky, heading straight for Ascetic Immortal Mountain with blazing flames. Qiq and Yang Tiandong thought it was an attack by demon cultivators, and everyone immediately went on alert. It was time to contribute to Ascetic Immortal Mountain. How could we face the Master if we can't even block this? Unexpectedly, before the fireball hit the ground, it changed direction and hit Fang Lian on the head. Everyone was shocked, thinking the Master's favorite disciple was killed. What would they do? But the fireball just caused

a bump on Fang Lian's head, and then rolled to one side. On closer inspection, the object looked like a spirit stone. Everyone felt that this stone contained extremely dense spiritual energy, and they quickly had Fang Lian take it to Han Zhu for a closer look. Han Zhu examined it closely. The stone was the size of a fist, emitting a deep purple glow, obviously not an ordinary stone. Han Zhu thought to himself, is this what being a child of heaven and earth is like? Opportunities come knocking without even leaving home. Utterly astonishing. Han Zhu asked him

to give him the stone first, and he would study it further. Then, Han Zhu took out a heavenly puppet. I've just developed a new generation of products. Unfortunately, there's no suitable material to withstand the power of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, and it can only be disassembled to preserve the spiritual power separately. Even if you encounter Union Realm or low-level Tribulation Crossing Realm powerhouses, as long as you assemble the puppet, it can save your life. Take this as an exchange for the spirit stone. Fang Lian thanked Han Zhu and left happily. Han Zhu thought to himself

that if the spirit stone could attract a child of heaven and earth, it must not be an ordinary item. At this time, the heaven-earth grass that had been sleeping in the cave suddenly woke up. Attracted by a familiar scent, the heaven-earth grass suddenly said, Master, I've seen this stone before. You've seen it? Han Zhu was surprised and asked the heaven-earth grass. My previous owner, she used to hold such a stone while cultivating. What? Han Zhu was astonished. A stone held by immortals? Is it really an item from the higher realms? The spirit stone appeared to

have been polished by someone, suggesting that immortals from the higher realms must value it highly. Han Zhu used his spiritual sense to examine it closely, but no matter how much he investigated, it was just a spirit stone, albeit one containing far more spiritual energy than any other spirit stone. He had once read a book describing similar treasures. Such treasures were known as enlightenment stones, and they often had scallions growing nearby. The scallions would absorb the spiritual power from the enlightenment stone, pondering the mysteries of the universe day and night. Wait, scallions? Seeing Han Zhu suddenly

freeze, the heaven-earth grass anxiously asked, What happened then? Han Zhu continued, Do you remember what I told you? I will give you a complete life, and perhaps the key to your life lies within this stone. Han Zhu advised the heaven-earth grass to closely meditate with the stone, suggesting that it might not take hundreds of years for it to transform. Thus, the heaven-earth grass kept the stone by its side every day. Afterward, Han Zhu continued his closed-door cultivation, and seven years passed in a blink of an eye. While he was busy cultivating, the cultivation world was

undergoing tumultuous changes. Demon cultivators became increasingly active, which alarmed the righteous path. Previously, when the Green Python Great Sage rampaged across the world, the demon path sects would directly flee, and those who fought against the Green Python Great Sage were mostly from the righteous path sects. Therefore, after the death of the Green Python Great Sage, the righteous path was weaker than the demon path. In such circumstances, the activity of demon cultivators was unsettling. Until news spread throughout the cultivation world, the demon emperor, who had disappeared thousands of years ago, had resurrected. The demon emperor sought

to establish a demon path dynasty, a dynasty organized by demon cultivators, and he was recruiting demon cultivators from all over the world to join him. Various legends of the demon emperor circulated. Some were worried that the world would plunge into chaos again, while others were indifferent. The cultivation world has always seen shifts in power between the righteous and the demonic, which is why heroes emerge in every era. There's no need to worry too much. The Green Python Great Sage was so powerful before, yet in the end, he still died. The demon emperor once unified the

demon cultivators across the world, but that was many years ago. Times have changed. During the conversation, Nine Cauldrons Sage noticed that Li Qingzi had a strange expression on his face, as if he wanted to say something, but hesitated. He suddenly remembered something and asked, Li Elder, you inquired about the demon emperor decades ago. Could it be that you know something? Li Qingzi hesitated and said, Decades ago, the god-slaying elder had me specifically investigate the demon emperor. Perhaps he foresaw something, but he didn't elaborate, and also hoped that I would not spread the word. Everyone was

shocked. Gu Yugong pondered and said, Could it be that the god-slaying elder had already foreseen the catastrophe that would befall the cultivation world? Is that why he didn't say anything, fearing that we would worry? They all knew that the real pillar of the Jade Pure sect was the god-slaying elder. The fact that even the god-slaying elder had inquired about it showed that this catastrophe would not be small. Lu Bumi spoke up, sect leader, I want to move the branch of the Blood Flame Heavenly Gate directly to Great Swallow. Is that possible? Nine Cauldrons Sage shook

his head and said, Great Swallow does not have that much space for you all to cultivate. Let's establish a teleportation formation, so everyone can assist each other and share what we have. The elders of the Jade Pure sect began to get busy. Meanwhile, Nine Cauldrons Sage ordered that all of Jade Pure sect's contribution tasks be confined within Great Swallow, and disciples outside of Great Swallow were all summoned back. Han Ju was still unaware of this matter. He was still cultivating. There was still some distance to reach the fourth level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm. Speaking

of which, Han Ju, who secluded himself for cultivation all year round, would also feel bored, but he often reminisced about the past to fill the void. This included memories from his previous life. In his previous life, Han Ju was a talented chef, dreaming of glorifying the family's spicy seafood. Just as he had taken over his grandfather's seafood restaurant, he died young, without even having touched a finger of his bride-to-be. Han Ju's thoughts were still with the girlfriend from his previous life when suddenly a woman behind him called out Master. Han Ju was startled. It was

impossible for outsiders to enter his innate cave abode. He turned around abruptly, only to see a scene that made his blood surge. Han Ju glanced at the flowerpot of the Heaven Earth Grass, and sure enough, the pot was empty. The Heaven Earth Grass had actually transformed into a human form. What was strange was that it had not encountered the Heavenly Tribulation during its transformation. For monsters to transform into human form, they had to go through the Heavenly Tribulation. The Heaven Earth Grass was also puzzled that it had skipped the Heavenly Tribulation without having reached its

10,000 year period. Han Ju looked at the Enlightenment Stone. Could it really be related to this? This stone was indeed incredible, possessing the power to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation. If so, wouldn't that mean there was no need for crossing the Tribulation anymore? Fang Liang's gift turned out to be unexpectedly generous. Han Ju and the transformed Heaven Earth Grass kept studying the stone, forgetting that Heaven Earth Grass was without a stitch on her body. Having no choice, Han Ju had to make an exception to leave his seclusion and go down the mountain to buy her clothes.

Dressed in new clothes, Heaven Earth Grass instantly transformed into a cute and clumsy girl. Yet her eyes and eyebrows hid a trace of aloofness. Heaven Earth Grass said her current appearance was modeled after her last master's looks. Han Ju didn't feel much about it. The appearance of an immortal was nothing special, not even as pretty as his master, Shi Xuan Fairy. Han Ju asked her if she had thought of a name. Master, how about I call myself Enlightenment Sword from now on? Heaven Earth Grass said, twisting her body. Han Ju's face twitched slightly. Enlightenment Sword.

A fairy named like that? Enlightenment Sword said it was appropriate since she should cultivate the way of the sword. Han Ju couldn't be bothered to think more about it. After all, she was just a plant. From then on, Heaven Earth Grass was renamed Enlightenment Sword, and Han Ju began to teach her the sword techniques personally. Thirteen years passed, and Han Ju finally broke through to the fourth level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm. He was delighted to find that since the Celestial Spirit Stone appeared, the spiritual energy in his innate cave abode had been increasing, making

his breakthrough not much slower than before. Enlightenment Sword's aptitude also surprised Han Ju. Since her transformation, her cultivation speed as a sword cultivator who understood the Tao had become faster. She truly had a talent in the way of the sword, stronger than any of Han Ju's disciples and grandchildren. Since she mastered the Supreme Finger Divine Sword and the Three Pure Shadows Sword, there was nothing left to teach her before she reached a higher level. One would think that a plant transformed into a monster would lack human emotions and desires, but Enlightenment Sword, bored out of

her mind, kept pestering Han Ju during her cultivation breaks. One day, as Enlightenment Sword was pestering Han Ju to practice cultivation, someone from the innate cave abode arrived. It was not a stranger, but Han Ju's main wife, Xing Hong Xian, returning from her travels. Han Ju was at a loss for words, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward for a moment. Still, Sun Chang'en was sensible. The mistress has returned excited from her travels, and I really couldn't stop her. I hope we didn't interrupt the master's dual cultivation, did we? At this point, Han Ju wished he

could kill him, hastily signaling him to shut up. Sun Chang'en immediately caught on. Alright, master, I'll go prepare some top-grade oysters. At this moment, Xing Hong Xian could no longer hold back her anger. Tell me, who exactly is she? Eager to protect her master, angrily said, My name is Enlightenment Sword. What do you want to do? Xing Hong Xian was extremely displeased. What kind of ridiculous name is that? She glanced at Han Ju. Husband, your taste has really declined lately. Being told her name was unpleasant. Enlightenment Sword was also very displeased. The name was given

by my master. What right do you have to say it's ugly? Master, husband, you really know how to play. Han Ju broke out in a cold sweat. Enlightenment Sword, go outside and cultivate. Send me out? I won't leave. As a concubine, I will never leave my master's side. Xing Hong Xian mockingly said, Which peak's fairy is this? Han Ju shook his head helplessly. What fairy? She's just the wild grass that transformed from the one you gave me before. Xing Hongxuan was stunned. She's that pot of grass? Husband, if you missed women, you could have just

told me. There's no need to get so involved with a plant. How about I stay and not go out anymore, and move in to keep you company? Don't even think about it. Don't disturb my cultivation. But I miss you. Aren't you content with your heavenly puppet? Xing Hongxuan's pretty face instantly turned red. Could it be that you noticed when I used the heavenly puppet for those things? Their playful and intimate quarreling indeed broadened enlightenment. Swords horizons. My child, can you go out and play for a while now? I have things to discuss with your mother.

After sending enlightenment sword away, Han Zhu changed the topic and asked Xing Hongxuan how she had been these years. He wanted to ask if she had found any treasures, but felt it was too direct. Xing Hongxuan sat next to Han Zhu and began to share her experiences from these years. These years were not peaceful outside. As the demon path grew stronger, she had countless encounters with demons. If she could beat them, she fought. If not, she either surrendered or ran away. She happened to meet a demon path powerhouse, who even gave her cultivation pointers. This

powerhouse was a disciple of one of the five greats of the demon path, the white-haired witch, a union realm great cultivator, who wanted to take Xing Hongxuan as a disciple. Xing Hongxuan said, I have a husband. I need to go back and ask him first. The demon cultivator was displeased, but agreed. I've encountered such opportunities several times, almost collecting the entire set of demon path's badges. My heart was set on returning to the jade pure sect to find you, my husband, only to find you here engaging in inter-species role-playing. You owe me an explanation. For

the first time, Han Ju sent heaven-earth grass out of the cave abode. The sight of a fairy running out of the master's cave abode surprised the disciples. No wonder the master wasn't lonely during his decades of seclusion. He had a fairy for company. It was only when she approached that the disciples realized something was off. Why did this fairy have the aura of heaven-earth grass? Could it be that she, like Sun Chang'en, had transformed? Sun Chang'en said, The concentration of spiritual energy in heaven-earth grass is even denser than mine. No wonder the master kept her

cooped up in the cave. The heavens have eyes. Our ascetic Immortal Mountain finally has a sister. The disciples immediately surrounded Enlightenment Sword like a pack of hungry wolves encircling a little white rabbit. Enlightenment Sword, unsure of what these rough men wanted to do, watched as chicks suddenly pulled out a fishing rod. Welcome to the Ascetic Immortal Mountain's fishing squad. Sun Chang'en explained, Every time a new person joins, we add chopsticks and give the fishing rod. It's our tradition. You have a newbie protection period, so you're guaranteed not to come back empty-handed from fishing. Enlightenment Sword's

thoughts were still in the innate cave abode, as it was her first time leaving it. Does Master not want me anymore? Chick quickly comforted her. Don't worry unnecessarily. The mistress is back, so the master will certainly be busy for a while. Little sister, why not go fishing with us first? The disciples eagerly agreed, wanting to ask her name, since calling her heaven-earth grass didn't sound very nice. Enlightenment Sword proudly stated, My name is Enlightenment Sword. Please take care of me. The disciples were petrified. Did the master give you that name? Maybe you should just stick

to heaven-earth grass. Inside the innate cave abode, Han Zhu and Xing Hongxian were catching up, seeing the many demon path tokens before him, most of which carried the aura of Union Realm demon cultivators. Han Zhu teased Xing Hongxian, You're really lucky to have encountered so many strong beings and come back in one piece. Xing Hongxuan's tone was full of jest. Husband, are you afraid of offending them? In my heart, not even a saint of the Tribulation Crossing Realm could beat you, let alone those from the Union Realm. What is there to fear? Han Zhu playfully

responded, Of course I'm scared. They have strong backgrounds. If we fight and I kill someone, their master would seek revenge, and I would have to find a way to kill their master too. It's very troublesome. Xing Hongxian thought about it and realized he had a point. It's not peaceful outside recently, so don't go out. You're already at the nascent soul realm, so your lifespan should be close to a thousand years, right? Since you have plenty of time, why not stay by my side and cultivate properly? Hearing Han Zhu suggest she stay, Xing Hongxian immediately blushed

and buried her head in Han Zhu's chest. Right. Husband, I have something for you. As she spoke, she began to rummage around inside her collar. Han Zhu thought to himself, Do all women in this world keep their treasures in this place? Soon, Xing Hongxian pulled out a pink crystal shard. This stone is about the same size as the one that fell from the sky before, and it also blocks spiritual sense. The difference is this one seems to have been sealed by someone on purpose. Han Zhu frowned and forcefully broke through with his spiritual sense. With

a boom, the stone still retained the previous owner's memories. It was a palace, located above the sea of clouds, with tall gates of a celestial realm standing high, and two large characters shining with dazzling golden light on them, Celestial Court. Han Zhu was shocked when he saw a huge mountain rushing towards him. Only when he broke through the clouds did Han Zhu realize that it wasn't a mountain, but a massive monster that reached the sky. Above the clouds, heavenly soldiers were arrayed in formation, banners bearing the large character for emperor. There stood a person in

the sky, looking down proudly at the gigantic creature. If not the Heavenly Emperor, who else could it be? The monster gathered a golden light in its mouth, preparing to shoot a spell at the Heavenly Emperor. The Heavenly Emperor slowly raised his hand and slightly extended a finger, saying, Sword that cleaves the primordial chaos. Instantly, a streak of green light shot out, turning the massive monster into ashes in a moment. Han Zhu's spiritual sense was also instantly pulled back to reality, and the system immediately prompted a significant increase in his spiritual sense. All this happened so

quickly that Xing Hongxian thought Han Zhu had just zoned out for a moment. Not bad, not bad, indeed a good treasure, Han Zhu said with a satisfied smile, then took out the nine-star spirit-stepping boots to give to Xing Hongxian. Watching the boots surrounded by flying flies, Xing Hongxian exclaimed, Eh, are you sure they don't have athlete's foot? Following the principle of reciprocity, Han Zhu put down the boots and excused himself to go out and give guidance to his disciples. Xing Hongxian was not willing to let him go so easily. Husband, boots, and such are not

important. You know what I want, right? Saying so, she pounced on Han Zhu like a hungry tiger. Han Zhu sighed helplessly, can't we just cultivate in peace? No matter how much Han Zhu struggled, he couldn't escape Xing Hongxian's clutches. Han Zhu's cries echoed through a scatic immortal mountain, reaching Enlightenment Sword, who was fishing. Not understanding the situation, she asked, What's happening to the master? Chick told her, The master is about to be eaten again. Enlightenment Sword, inexperienced in worldly matters, turned to rush to save Han Zhu, but was stopped by Chick's wing. Han Zhu seemed

a bit too eager. Don't spoil the master's good time. Enlightenment Sword kept asking, and Chick had no choice but to tell her, You'll understand eventually. A month later, Xing Hongxian emerged from the innate cave abode, her face glowing with health, constantly praising, The Tribulation Crossing realm is indeed different, much more vigorous than before. Chick was busy flattering Xing Hongxian, while Enlightenment Sword noticed that this woman was covered in her master's scent. Could it be that the master had encountered some misfortune? She immediately flew into the cave abode, and the scene before her made her cry,

Master, oh master, what has happened to you? She was extremely distressed and quickly asked Han Zhu, Master, are you injured? Dark prison chicken said you were eaten by that woman. That woman? Han Zhu grabbed Enlightenment Sword's face. Don't keep saying that woman. That woman? She is your mistress. Have you forgotten that she was the one who brought you here? Enlightenment Sword then realized that this woman was indeed the master's legitimate wife. Han Zhu knew that this darn chicken was spouting nonsense again. It was time to teach it a lesson. After so many years, it's unclear

how the cultivation world outside has changed. Could it be that those scoundrels' trafficking souls and bodies are causing trouble in the world again? Han Zhu checked his social connections and emails, having not scrolled through his friends' updates for over a decade. Han Zhu frowned. Mafuju and Zhou Fan, this pair of brothers, have had it tough. One is sealed away, and the other has died and reincarnated. The one sealed doesn't know when he'll see the light of day again, and the reincarnated one has to start all over. It's uncertain when they'll be able to meet again.

The influence of the Demon Emperor will eventually reach Great Swallow. Han Zhu felt a sense of crisis. I must concentrate on my cultivation. The path of survivor cultivation is the most difficult. I must ensure that I can kill an enemy with one strike when encountered. Outside the cave abode, watching Xing Hongxian and Enlightenment Sword run around for their master, Sun Chang'an shook his head and chuckled. What is love in this world? Even a blade of grass can have feelings. Dark prison chicken swaggered over and said, Chang'an, are you in a bad mood today because you

didn't go fishing? Sun Chang'an shook his head. I'm just marveling that even a blade of grass can have feelings. Dark prison chicken clicked her tongue. I understand. Let it go. Xiao Mei has already left. Sun Chang'an's smile instantly froze. Dark prison chicken jokingly said, Xiao Mei is indeed dead. She died outside while on an expedition ten years ago. Li Qingzi, knowing her past with Sun Chang'an, specially informed him. Since then, besides cultivating and fishing, Sun Chang'an has mostly been absent-minded. Dark prison chicken laughed. It's better that she's dead, since she didn't fancy you anyway. Concentrate

on your cultivation. After you ascend, I'll send you a fairy. Yang Tiandong couldn't stand it anymore. Brother chicken, how many times have I told you not to provoke him? Mo Rongqi, disliking the bullying of his master, stood up and said, Chicken lord, let's have a sparring session. Junior brother, let's go together. Fang Liang also stood up. Okay. Eager to try. Their cultivation having improved recently, they had been eager to teach the fat chicken a lesson. Dark prison chicken, though disdainful, felt a sense of crisis. These two fools are advancing too quickly. Sooner or later, they

will surpass me. If only there was another Xu Do. Dark prison chicken looked up at the trunk of the Fusang tree, a bold idea popping into his mind. What if it leaves the Fusang tree for a while? Brilliant. Perhaps it's a good plan. Today's battle record. Dark prison chicken triumphed. In the blink of an eye, another 13 years have passed. The pavilion at the world's end in ancient origin province is facing an existential crisis, with countless demon cultivators attacking. All disciples of the pavilion at the world's end have been killed, leaving only the young pavilion

master alive. The demon emperor ordered him to immediately surrender and pledge allegiance, or he could spare his life. However, the young pavilion master, adhering to the righteous path, activated all his spiritual power and self-deninated using his fusion void realm strength, taking all the present demon cultivators with him. The old pavilion master cried inconsolably upon hearing of his son's death. The demon path dynasty, led by the demon emperor, began attacking righteous path sects all over, with unstoppable momentum, consecutively destroying righteous path sects. Nine Cauldron Sage intended to unite the major sects in sacred lands to start

a counterattack. Gentlemen, with the invasion of the demon path, we must not sit idly by. The righteous path must join forces and start to counterattack. It's worth mentioning that all demon path sects in Great Swallow have already evacuated, leaving no demon path sects except for rogue cultivators in Great Swallow now. Of course, it's best to consult the godslaying elder before engaging in warfare. At this moment, Nine Cauldron Sage personally came to visit Hanju. Hanju's first reaction was that something must have happened to the Jade Pure sect again. Nine Cauldron Sage spoke seriously. The demon emperor

has already started waging war against the righteous path. The world is in chaos. I wanted to ask for your opinion. Should we fight or flee in this war? Hanju said calmly, My view is simple. Continue to focus on development. The Jade Pure Holy sect is not the number one sect in the world, and it might not even rank among the third-rate sects. With our current strength, we cannot change the overall situation. Instead of becoming cannon fodder, it's better to cultivate properly. Seeing Enlightenment Sword, Nine Cauldron Sage was taken aback. Elder Han, hiding a beauty in

your golden house? The sky won't fall as long as the righteous path's holy lands stand. The heavenly immortal mansion alone is enough to give the demon path a hard time. Why should we get involved? After hearing this, Nine Cauldron Sage thought it made sense. He hesitated for a moment and then asked, Elder Han, what's your current cultivation level? Hanju answered, still in a tribulation-crossing realm. The words still and deeply struck Nine Cauldron Sage. He knew Hanju's age was over 500 years. He had never heard of a great cultivator in the tribulation-crossing realm who was as

young as 500 years old. That was utterly outrageous. Go on. Even if the demon emperor comes to great swallow, I'm still here. Hearing this from Hanju, Nine Cauldron Sage felt reassured, immediately bid farewell, and left. Enlightenment Sword curiously asked who the old man was. Hanju told her to be polite. He is the sect leader of the Jade Pure Holy sect. Enlightenment Sword excitedly asked Hanju, can I go visit the Jade Pure sect? Go ahead and tell Dark Prison Chicken and the others not to leave the Jade Pure Holy sect recently. Enlightenment Sword was overjoyed and

immediately left. At this time, Hanju received another system notification. Huang Jihao has been attacked over 50,000 times. Did he poke a hornet's nest of demon cultivators? A man stood on the mountainside with a sword in his hand. His robe was dyed in blood, turning it deep red. Despite his messy hair, his killing intent was overwhelming. This person was Huang Jihao. Huang Jihao was breathing heavily. He had been fighting for five days and nights. With his spiritual power nearly exhausted, Huang Jihao's face was grim. He felt an unprecedented crisis. He knew he was no match for

the demon before him. Could this demon be stronger than that senior? If I don't even have the courage to face this demon, what's the point of living cowardly? Bring it on. As many as you come, as many will serve as my cushion. Just as Huang Jihao was about to lift his sword, a vast oppressive force came from all directions. Since ancient times, evil has not overcome good. Facing the demon path, righteous path cultivators should rather die than surrender. Huang Jihao took a deep breath, knowing that righteous path cultivators had arrived. Luo Qioma Do you really

think the righteous path has no one? Luo Qioma snorted coldly. Where did this old fool come from, courting death? Another cultivator behind the elderly man spoke. I, ancestor, have been in seclusion for a thousand years. Today, hearing that the demon path wants to control the world is truly a joke. Luo Qioma sized up the five people before him, led by the heavenly immortal mansion ancestor Ji. When the five of the twelve Taoists from the heavenly immortal mansion had arrived, the Taoists greeted each other, completely ignoring Luo Qioma, and then prepared to use the heavenly star

demon sealing technique. Thus, the five of them engaged in battle with Luo Qioma. At this time, the Jade Pure sect was also paying attention to the situation of the world's battles. When they learned that the great powers of the righteous path had consecutively emerged from seclusion, the elders of the Jade Pure holy sect were overjoyed, and many elders even wanted to participate in this grand demon slaying tide. The elders were very puzzled. This is a great opportunity for the Jade Pure holy sect to make a name for itself. If we miss this chance, who knows

how long we will have to wait. Nine Cauldron Sage, well aware of the godslaying elders' stance, and since there were no orders to attack the demon path, understood that the situation was not as simple as it seemed at first glance. Although the demon path was being pushed back, the demon emperor had yet to show himself, clearly indicating that there were still moves to be made. Next, we must defend Great Swallow at all costs, and we cannot allow ourselves to be rash and disrupt the grand plan of the godslaying elder. Time passed, and seven years went

by. Fang Liang had already broken through to the nascent soul realm. Fang Liang's displayed talent was even more fierce than Mo Rong Qi, making the disciples and grand disciples admire Han Ju even more. In their view, this was all thanks to Han Ju's ability to change fate against the heavens. Chick was amazed at Fang Liang's rapid progress. It won't be long before this kid surpasses me. I bully his master every day. I have to ensure this kid doesn't seek revenge on me later. Blackfin looked at the Fusan tree. I can't wait any longer. I need

to find an opportunity to implement my Judo 2.0 plan. At this moment, Enlightenment's sword called Mo Rong Qi and Fang Liang into the cave. The master has summoned you two. Fang Liang was nervous. Could the grandmaster be summoning us because we've made a mistake? Mo Rong Qi, clever as ever, had already guessed the grandmaster's intentions. Have you forgotten the promise the grandmaster made to you? He must be planning to personally give you guidance. Fang Liang's mood instantly brightened. He has been looking forward to this day for a long time. The two entered the cave and

paid their respects to Han Zhu. Both of you have exceptional talents. Today, I will pass on to you the four great secret techniques of our Han sect. That, Han Zhu mobilized his spiritual power and infused the secret techniques into their spiritual senses. Three-Pure Shadow Sword, Seven-Fold Illusion Step, Myriad Thunderstorm, and Wind God Technique. He transmitted all four secret techniques to them. These four secret techniques will ensure that the two of you can fight when you encounter enemies, defend when outnumbered, break through when encircled, and escape when facing stronger foes. I hope you two can take

one step and cover ten, walk a thousand to ten thousand steps, and securely tread the path to longevity. The two were moved to tears and bowed to Han Zhu, expressing that they would stay by their master's side in this life and accompany him on the path to longevity. However, Han Zhu smiled slightly. Today, I impart these techniques to you not to confine you within these mountains. You two, go. Fang Liang asked tentatively, Grandmaster, why are you sending me away? Did I do something wrong? Han Zhu said with a bitter smile, what fault could you possibly

have? Han Zhu had his own plans. Fang Liang, as a child of heaven and earth, reached the nascent soul realm in just a short period. Even Murong Qi, with his reincarnated War God's talent, couldn't match his speed. After so many years in the mountains, Fang Liang had developed a cautious character. With his cautious nature and the fate of heaven and earth, he might find it difficult to seek death in the future. Murong Qi's personality was the exact opposite of Fang Liang's. Currently, ascetic cultivation was progressing too slowly for him. The talent of a War God

needed trials to break through. Han Zhu reassured them, both of you are prodigies. You entered my sect at a young age, and while your cultivation has been smooth, you lack worldly experience. Murong Qi cautiously asked, do you want us to go out for trials like the other sect disciples? That's right, and it's going to be the long-term kind of trial, just like your second senior brother. Murong Qi was secretly delighted. The Grandmaster finally agreed to let me leave the mountain. He had long wanted to venture far and wide, believing his talent could make him a

respected powerhouse. Although he never doubted the Grandmaster's strength, not everyone is suited for ascetic cultivation. The outside world might not have a blessed land like Ascetic Immoral Mountain, but strong individuals can always create their own conditions. Unexpectedly, Fang Liang bowed again. I have no interest in the mundane world. I only wish to pursue longevity with the Grandmaster. Han Zhu patted Fang Liang's head. The path to longevity is not as simple as you think. A nascent soul cultivator must cultivate both body and mind. To complete your immoral journey, you must fill in the gaps with worldly

experiences. Murong Qi quickly patted Fang Liang. The Grandmaster is right. You should listen to him. I'll take you out to see the world. Although Fang Liang was reluctant, Han Zhu didn't want to say more. Go. Gain some experience. Having said that, he teleported the two out of the innate cave abode. Before they left, Han Zhu added one more piece of advice. Those who seek experience in the world must break free from worldly attachments to truly understand the essence of heaven and earth. You can take on sect missions, and if you ever feel tired, you are

always welcome to come back. Yang Tiandong, Sun Chang'an, and Chick were all stunned. This was the first time the Master had allowed anyone to go down the mountain for trials. Yang Tiandong, with his rich experience, advised the two. If you can beat them, beat them to death. If you can't, quickly acknowledge them as your foster father. Chick, knowing well that going down the mountain for trials is nowhere as comfortable as ascetic cultivation here, commented, When you two return, my Judo 2.0 plan will surely be complete. By then, you two lads just wait to be crushed

by Chicken Lord. Enlightenment Sword, quite puzzled, looked at them. Master, is going out for trials really that important? I found it quite boring when I went down the mountain. Han Ju explained, Your growth experiences span thousands of years. So naturally, you find the world uninteresting. Just focus on your cultivation. Your talent is no less than theirs, and with no lack of character, you'll catch up with them soon with some effort. Enlightenment Sword nodded. Yes, Master. After the two left, Han Ju felt a bit of loss, but soon calmed himself. I follow my own path, and

you have your own stage. The future world will surely have a place for you. I wonder who will bring a bigger surprise when they return next time. Will that lad have become an immortal by then? The remaining three stood on the mountaintop, looking out. As a master, Sun Chang'en naturally worried about his disciples. Chick also thought of Doggy, whom it hadn't seen in many years. Wondering if it was still alive, Yang Tiandong advised it not to worry too much. That Doggy was tough. You'd better worry more about your own cultivation. Speaking of Doggy, it's in

Siu Chee's lives weren't going well, still serving as minions to the Demon Emperor. Another eight years passed in a flash. Taking advantage of Han Ju's closed-door cultivation, Chick secretly moved its nest down from the Fusang Tree, eagerly awaiting the arrival of Xiu Dou. Suddenly, one day, a purple aurora lit up the sky, and Chick looked up excitedly, exclaiming, It's here! It's here! The disciples of the True Martial Sect also saw this phenomenon, with one reporting, Elder Sheng Huan, someone has comprehended the ancient way of the sword again. Sheng Huan Chou Chien had grown accustomed to

this, as Han Ju would pull off such a feat every so often. On the other hand, inside the innate cave abode, Han Ju, who had just reached the sixth level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, couldn't wait to have a mock battle with Xian Qing Jun. This time, Han Ju didn't immediately lose. Using all his skills and ultimate moves, he managed to fight Xian Qing Jun for a few minutes and ultimately secured a hard-fought victory. Although he won, he had used everything he had. In a real fight, his opponent wouldn't give him so much time. The

Demon Emperor and Xian Qing Jun have the same cultivation level. It will be troublesome if I can't defeat them instantly, Han Ju thought. At this moment, Han Ju also saw the anomaly in the sky. Someone has entered the long river of the way of the sword. Come to think of it, the last time I comprehended it was when I was at the Union Realm level. Now that I'm at the Tribulation Crossing Realm, it's time to go in for another look. Seeing someone else comprehend the ancient way of the sword, Sheng Huan Chou Chien, already in

a bad mood, felt even worse. Then, unexpectedly, a junior came to report again. Elder Sheng Huan, someone has comprehended the ancient way of the sword again. What? Wasn't it just? Sheng Huan Chou Chien was puzzled. This time the color seems different. It was purple just now, but now it's purple gold. It's the symbol of reaching the pinnacle of the ancient way of the sword, the junior explained. Sheng Huan Chou Chien completely broke down. The same day. Two natural phenomena. Is the ancient way of the sword that common? I'm so tired. I really want to retire.

At this moment, Han Ju familiarly arrived at the long river of the way of the sword. This time was different. He could control his consciousness to move forward or stop. This time, I should be able to meet that senior again, Han Ju silently thought. He walked at a steady pace, surpassing shadow after shadow. He paid attention to the fleeting images of sword cultivators along the way. After a while, Han Ju saw a familiar figure waiting for him ahead. He immediately greeted, senior, long time no see. Are you well? The figure snorted lightly. It hasn't been

that long. I just didn't expect you to come back so quickly. This time, I won't stop you. Go ahead and seek your death. Han Ju came up to him, clasped his fists, and laughed. Ha, senior jests. Thanks for your help previously. Please, could you tell me your name? After I ascend, I will surely visit to express my gratitude. The guardian spoke coldly. Don't try to cozy up to me. I guard the long river of the way of the sword simply to protect it. Attaching oneself to the powerful does not lead to greatness. On this point,

you are inferior to the previous genius who came here. Though he did not progress as far as you, his temperament was excellent. It won't be difficult for him to become a sword immortal someday. Han Ju was surprised. So someone did come here before. Curiously, he asked, what is that person's name? The guardian indicated that he couldn't explicitly mention matters of karma, but could tell Han Ju that he and that person were karmically linked. Han Ju thought hard. Not as far along as me, so his cultivation should be below mine. If there's someone with innate destiny

who can also be called a genius, then it must be Huang Jihao, who has reached the fusion void realm with an innate sword heart. Senior, is the person you mentioned named Huang Jihao? Han Ju asked. The guardian immediately clammed up. This man has something indeed. If you've deduced matters of heaven's Tao, don't blame it on me. As Han Ju passed by the mysterious figure, just one step brought immense pressure. He continued forward. The second step. The third step. Han Ju stopped at the third step last time, unable to progress further. This time, Han Ju took

another step. The fourth step. The mysterious figure warned him. If you insist on courting death, don't expect me to save you this time. Han Ju gritted his teeth. Of course. I won't trouble you, senior. With the fifth step, a terrifying pressure hit him, causing immense pain. When he tried to take the sixth step, he couldn't lift his foot, feeling his chest constricting, unable to breathe. Kid, if you proceed, you're likely to have your soul explode. This is not a joke. If you see blue flames that can burn the soul, it's heaven's Tao warning you not

to go further. Stop now. Did you hear me? That's enough. Despite saying he wouldn't interfere, the mysterious figure still urged Han Ju to stop. A soul explosion could harm his physical body, and even if he didn't perish, his cultivation would significantly decline. However, Han Ju ignored the warnings and took the sixth step beyond Taiyi, enduring the soul-burning flames. Han Ju smiled slightly. Don't worry. I, Han, never fight unprepared battles. The mysterious figure was astonished. He actually did it. His spiritual sense strength must be close to Taiyi's to manage that. Why can he proceed to this

point with his Tribulation Crossing Realm cultivation? The stone Xing Hongxian gave to Han Ju played a major role, strengthening his spiritual sense. Han Ju knew reaching this point in the Tribulation Crossing Realm was already the limit. How much further could he go if he reached the Mahayana Realm? Every additional step now is one step closer to the path of longevity. Han Ju's spiritual sense began to withdraw from the long river of the Way of the Sword, and he spoke to thank the mysterious figure. My goal has been achieved, so I won't disturb the senior's cultivation

any longer. The mysterious figure marveled at someone taking six steps and still being able to leave unscathed. I guess after a thousand years or so when he returns from the Mahayana. No, maybe not even a hundred years are needed. A mere mortal was able to take six steps beyond Taiyi in the Way of the Sword long river. Such a talent in the Way of the Sword has already surpassed the limit of the mundane world, exceeding all sword cultivators of the myriad realms. What is the background of this kid? Seems like I need to inform my

true self. Finally, something amusing after a million years. At this moment, Han Ju's spiritual sense returned to the innate cave abode, and his spiritual power suddenly erupted, causing his cultivation to skyrocket. The robust spiritual energy burst out from the innate cave abode. To avoid affecting others, Han Ju activated a system barrier to seal off the cave. After seven days, his cultivation stopped increasing. Although there was still some distance from the seventh level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, it was already greater than several years of ascetic cultivation. The system then prompted, Zhang Guoxing has developed a

favorable impression of you, currently at one star. Zhang Guoxing has guarded the Way of the Sword for a million years. Because of your supreme talent in the Way of the Sword, he has developed a favorable impression of you, but he still has significant doubts about your temperament. If you intentionally strike up a conversation with him again, it will provoke his dislike. Seeing the note, Han Ju felt awkward. Is this what it means to be a powerhouse? So aloof. If I ignore him next time, will his favorable impression increase? Relying on the powerful won't lead to

greatness. Alright, the senior is right, forging oneself is crucial. To truly achieve longevity, earnest cultivation is the only way, and one should never rely on the strength of others. Han Ju thought to himself. The system popped up another notification. Your divine ability, Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Unrivaled Sword Finger, has been greatly enhanced and upgraded to Taiyi Divine Ability. Now his means for long-range combat were also complete. Han Ju decided to have another simulated battle with Xian Qing Jun, setting the simulation level to the third layer of the Mahayana Realm. Given in simulated trials, one

must proceed with caution, Han Ju thought. However, he was already familiar with Xian Qing Jun's combat routines, having tested her thousands of times before. The tactics of the third layer of the Mahayana Realm are unchanging, utterly lacking in creativity. Using the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Unrivaled Sword Finger, Han Ju executed a move that instantly killed his opponent. The simulation ended in two seconds, excluding the time spent talking. It was about one second. Going to the way of the Sword Long River really skyrocketed my progress. Han Ju mused to himself, should I increase the difficulty?

Han Ju planned to up the challenge again and subsequently raised the difficulty to the fourth layer of the Mahayana Realm. It was still an instant kill. His, worthy of being a Taiyi Sword move, one finger, and she's done four. Han Ju marveled. My cultivation isn't at Mahayana, but I have techniques beyond Mahayana. Isn't that a bit too ostentatious? But it should be enough to deal with the Demon Emperor. After all, the higher the cultivation, the greater the disparity at the same level. The system indicated that the Demon Lord is highly unlikely to intervene in the

fight, leaving only those four Demon Sovereigns as opponents. Han Ju directly increased the difficulty to the sixth layer of the Mahayana Realm. Such level of power could not be underestimated, as the outcome of battles between masters could be decided in an instant. Fortunately, Han Ju knew all of Xian Xing Jun's starting habits. As long as I'm strong enough to take the initiative, victory is assured. But in an instant, the Demon Lord appeared before him, revealing a sinister smile, and immediately pierced through Han Ju's avatar. Han Ju was unwilling to give up, and after several battles,

it was proven that his reaction speed indeed wasn't as fast as that of the sixth layer of the Mahayana Realm, and his avatar suffered a lot. I can't beat it. Better to cultivate to Mahayana before considering fighting four at once. Han Ju thought helplessly. Just then, the system brought another update. The friend circle was still bustling. Luo Qioma is actually dead. Doesn't that change it to fighting three instead of four? Wonder which deity did it? Han Ju was surprised. At this moment, in a dark cave somewhere, Luo Qioma lamented in his last moment, How is

this possible? You're only at the ninth layer of the Tribulation Crossing Realm. A man sneered coldly. This sword is on behalf of my ancestor. Luo Qioma instantly understood. Heaven. Heavenly Immortal Mansion. Ancestor Ji? Could it be you are? That's right. Just came out of seclusion and got this job. Although it's a bit troublesome, I'll give you a discount. I'll leave your body intact. Die gratefully. Five years later, the speed of cultivation with the Enlightenment Sword is considered fast. It is estimated that it won't be long before it can attempt to break through to the nascent

soul realm. Yang Tiandong is also about to achieve the Spirit Transformation Realm, while the Dark Prison Chicken is still struggling in the Fusion Void Realm with slower cultivation progress. The Dark Prison Chicken thought gloomily, Why am I not the same as my master? Finally consolidated, Han Ju broke through to the seventh level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm. He looked at his list of friends and foes with satisfaction and said to himself, Compared to the cultivators in my circle, my breakthrough speed is absolutely unparalleled. Han Ju also thought, Jinaiha, oh Jinaiha, I hope I get the

chance to kill you. Don't die before you meet me. Master Jingxiu hurried to Han Ju and said respectfully, Elder Han, Elder Han, sorry to disturb you. Could you please go to the Secret Temple? Ma Zhu insists on seeing you. The Secret Temple? Has something happened to Ma Zhu? Han Ju asked curiously. Since the incident with the Yemo family's demonic techniques, Ma Zhu has been semi-confined to the Secret Temple, quietly cultivating. Ma Zhu pleaded, I want to go out. Please let me go. My clan members are waiting for me to rescue them. I must save them.

Han Ju asked suspiciously. Are they asking you for help? Yes. Ma Zhu nodded. How did she receive the message? Has anyone been here? Han Ju turned to ask Master Jingxiu. Master Jingxiu shook his head. No. The barriers can block spiritual sense, and even carrier pigeons are impossible. Han Ju thought to himself, well, did the Yemo family set up a chat group in their bloodline? How did they manage to communicate? Thinking this, Han Ju decisively refused. No. I promised Ma Fuchu to take care of you. Nowadays, demon cultivators rampant outside. You don't even have the spirit

transformation cultivation. Going out would mean a certain death, not to mention your Yemo family ancestors. Ma Zhu said earnestly, I know what you are worried about. You're worried that I will be deceived by the Yemo family ancestors. But although our Yemo family belongs to the demon path, we are not cold-hearted. Now, the entire Yemo family is sealed, only I am still somewhat free. If I don't save them, the Yemo family will be gone. It took me a lot to find out that besides my brother, there are other people in the Yemo family. I really can't

bear to see them suffer. Han Ju sighed and asked. You might really die if you go out. Are you sure you want to go? Even if it means death, I'm not afraid. Ma Zhu replied firmly. Well, if you are determined to go, then go. Keep this safe. Put it in your storage ring. It can save your life in times of crisis. Once you leave this time, don't ever fantasize about me coming out to save you. After saying this, Han Ju turned and left, leaving behind one last sentence. If you die, we can only continue our

destiny in the next life. Yes. Ma Zhu nodded silently. Master Jing Xu looked at Ma Zhu and said. The seal on the secret temple has been lifted. You can leave at any time. While you are outside, do not follow in the footsteps of Ma Fu Ju and Zhou Fan, bringing shame to our sect. Yes. Thank you, Elder Jing Xu, for your care over these years. Ma Zhu bid farewell to Master Jing Xu. Ma Zhu, Master Jing Xu hesitated. Is there anything else, Elder? My family is still suffering. If I stay, my obsession will turn into

a heart demon. Master Jing Xu sighed. Well, then be extra careful on your journey. If I can return safely, I will always stay by your side to serve you. Elder, we will meet again. Ma Zhu bid farewell to Master Jing Xu and left alone. As soon as Ma Zhu stepped out of the mountain gate, she sensed a subtle aura. You ghost! I know it's you, Ma Zhu murmured softly. You actually noticed me? I thought I hid myself quite well. Han Zhu's voice echoed in Ma Zhu's mind. The world is fraught with danger. Knowing you can

sense and avoid threats reassures me. A Six Paths Ultimate Seal appeared on Ma Zhu. With the Six Paths Ultimate Seal, even if you unfortunately die, I can find you. If anyone dares to mess with you, this Heaven's Puppet can annihilate them, including those in the Tribulation crossing Rome up to the fifth level. Han Zhu thought reluctantly. Mo Yiling, I won't curse you anymore. I hope you can take care of yourself. It seems I should also thank my parents for abandoning me in this life, saving me a lot of trouble. Han Zhu said self-deprecatingly. Parents, the

Master's parents, Enlightenment Sword asked curiously. So many years have passed. They might have turned into bones by now, but they could also still be alive. Han Zhu fell into reminiscence. Back then, I was young and ignorant, unable to understand the meaning behind my parents' words. I remember my father mentioning a region, saying that taking a child was too troublesome. I can't remember the details. They were probably planning their escape. In the end, they said, we're going out for a bit, and we'll come back soon to pick you up. That sentence has stayed with me to

this day. From that day on, I never saw my parents return. Old Tai once launched a search operation. Soon, two teams returned, obviously with bad news, as Old Tai's face was quite ugly. They went to that place? How could? Old Tai didn't tell me the truth, but the answer was clear from the daily labor and living off others' charity, until Old Tai wanted to see me on his deathbed, probably to plead for my parents. Unfortunately, I missed it. But I didn't need Old Tai's reminder. I understood. The system had already warned me with the favor

and hatred mechanism. They were still thinking of me. They would surely generate favor. I once fantasized about seeing my parents' names in the list of friends, but it never happened. People are gone. Why should I waste time? Everyone has their own will. I'll lend a hand to those around me if I can, but I won't sacrifice myself for them. The path of cultivation is destined to be lonely. In the end, all one can be responsible for is oneself, and I have only one goal, to achieve immortality. Rest assured, Master, I will always be by your

side. Enlightenment Sword said. Han Ju shook his head. It's hard to say. Unexpected things are not for us to decide. If one day, you too must leave due to some unavoidable and inseparable matters, I won't forcibly keep you. Then, Master, shall we go fishing? Chicken Lord said it's the season of plenty, and there are many big fish. Enlightenment Sword suggested. Sure, it's good to balance work and leisure. Han Ju agreed. Han Ju said. Master, why did you let Fang Liang go? Ever since he left, we've been returning empty-handed from fishing every day. Two and a

half years later, on the mountain peak of the Jade Pure sect, Dark Prison Chicken was performing a courtship dance. Nine Cauldron Sage commented. What's the point? A courtship dance? Is this chicken looking for a partner? Han Ju also noticed and asked. What brings the sect leader true person here? Nine Cauldron Sage excitedly said. Elder Han, good news. Just as you predicted. Even without our intervention, the demon path won't succeed. How so? Han Ju asked. Elder Han is truly prescient. Indeed, the Heavenly Immortal Mansion sent people. One of the five venerables of the demon path, Luo

Qioma. You must have heard of him, right? He had old grievances with one of the sacred lands, the Heavenly Immortal Mansion. The ancestor of the Heavenly Immortal Mansion, seeking revenge for being severely injured by him years ago, dispatched the sect's strongest genius disciple, who in front of numerous demon cultivators, boldly executed him. Those demon cultivators are now utterly disheartened. You know, that genius had just turned a thousand years old. That outrageous? To kill Luo Qioma, one must be at least at the Mahayana cultivation level. A thousand-year-old Mahayana. Are the geniuses outside really that terrifying now?

Han Ju exclaimed. Ah, not sure about that. It shouldn't be that exaggerated. Now that Luo Qioma is dead, has the demon path calmed down? Han Ju asked, puzzled. On the contrary. While Luo Qioma's death has indeed panicked the lower-ranked demon cultivators, it has intensified the conflicts between the higher echelons of the righteous and demonic paths. It's said that the other four venerables of the demon path are about to make their appearance. One of them has even reached the eighth level of the Mahayana realm. The situation is indeed not optimistic, sighed Nine-Cauldron Sage. The eighth level

of the Mahayana realm. Could that be the strongest among the demon path? Nine-Cauldron Sage took a sip of tea and replied, it should be. There has never been a record of a demon path cultivator at the ninth level of the Mahayana realm in the moral realm. Why? Most likely, they were forced to ascend. Han Ju thought of Xian Qing Jun. Will Xian Qing Jun be involved? She doesn't seem to be entirely on the side of the demon path. She's so powerful yet seems to be wary of something. There shouldn't be any problems, right? At that

moment, the system alerted. Innate destiny individual detected. Would you like to view their origin? Innate destiny individual, Han Ju exclaimed, immediately choosing to view. Ji Xian Qing, tribulation-crossing realm ninth level, born with an invincible heart, believes himself to be the only divine immortal above all mortals. Extremely arrogant, born in the heavenly immortal mansion, reached golden core at one hundred years old. With an arrogant soul at two hundred, the strongest genius in the history of heavenly immortal mansion, has been in seclusion cultivating, forced to come out due to the war between the righteous and demonic paths.

Heard that Jade Pure Sex Loki is the number one cultivator in the world. Came to challenge. Han Ju suddenly asked, sect leader, is the person who killed Luo Qioma called Ji Xian Qing? Ah, what's Xian Qing? Ji Xian Qing. You don't know? I'm not sure either. The news traveled so far. A lot of information was lost. Nine Cauldron Sage said embarrassingly. Han Ju quickly sent Nine Cauldron Sage off. Sect Leader. You continue drinking. I'll step out for a moment. Han Ju thought to himself. The alert has already appeared, which means the person is nearby. I

fear they come with ill intent. Ji Xian Qing is extremely arrogant. The previous Ji Long Chan was also arrogant in character. Does the heavenly immortal mansion produce egomaniacs? Both individuals are many times stronger than their peers. It seems the waters of the heavenly immortal mansion are deeper than imagined. Han Ju immediately checked for the strongest person within the Jade Pure sect and quickly locked onto Ji Xian Qing. He entered the simulation trial system and took a glance at Ji Xian Qing. A cultivator at the fourth level of the Mahayana realm might not necessarily be my

opponent, let alone someone at the ninth level of the Tribulation Crossing realm. Let's keep this control within ten seconds. However, this time he miscalculated. Ji Xian Qing took the initiative in an instant. Han Ju's cheek was slashed in a flash. This move doesn't seem like a sword technique. What kind of technique is this? Its speed is comparable to Xian Qing Jun. Han Ju immediately executed the reincarnation sword intent, which was blocked by Ji Xian Qing using a sword as a shield. Powered by energy, a sword made of fragments, the control over spiritual energy must be

ridiculously strong. The fragments scattered on the ground are recalled by Ji Xian Qing, piercing Han Ju's body one by one. Then, Ji Xian Qing charges towards Han Ju, giving him no chance to catch his breath. Han Ju unleashes the reincarnation sword intent with a flick of his finger, but it is once again blocked by Ji Xian Qing's sword shield. Han Ju executes the Sevenfold Illusion stat, transforming into seven Han Jus surrounding Ji Xian Qing. The seven Han Jus simultaneously unleash the Three Pure Worlds Extermination. Ji Xian Qing counters with the Heavenly Immortal Mansion's secret technique,

Lustrous Light Cocoon, which not only blocks the power of the Three Pure Worlds Extermination, but also boosts his own aura to the Mahayana realm. Ji Xian Qing gives a cold smile. My shield can block your attacks three times. I'm afraid you won't have a chance for the next two. Ji Xian Qing unleashes an AoE ultimate move, Celestial Justice Quells Chaos, hitting Han Ju again. I underestimated you. Your weapon is bizarre and versatile. Your control over spiritual power is at its peak. Your speed rivals that of the Mahayana. You have secret techniques for bodily protection, and

you can temporarily break through your strength limit. Up to now, you're the first person of the same realm to push me to this extent. No wonder you were able to kill Luo Qioma of the Mahayana realm's fourth level. Ji Xian Qing stabilizes his stance in front of Han Ju, and gives him a cold smile. Your mastery of the sword way is very high, but don't forget your physical body remains the same, only to be suppressed. Dying by the hands of the strongest genius of the Heavenly Immortal Mansion is your supreme honor. I've won this time.

Relax, clear your mind, and accept death with no distractions. Han Ju watches him ramble on without saying a word. After a move, it's Ji Xian Qing who ends up on the ground. Why? I couldn't break your defense, Han Ju says. You made a big mistake. My Taiyi armor is not for show. Being able to last this long against me at the same realm, you're also the first one. Visiting the virtual battle, Han Ju feels somewhat troubled. It took 40 seconds. Without the ability to kill in one hit, the Jade Pure sect might be in danger.

Just then, Han Ju hears the sound of a flute. Someone is playing the flute, and the melody is filled with a killing aura, as if brewing a great battle. Du Ku arrives in an instant, his tone filled with tension. A formidable enemy is attacking. Did Elder Du Ku also notice? Fellow Taoist, it seems that only those at the Tribulation Crossing realm can hear this flute sound. Since the intruder is so provocative, why not let me teach him a lesson? I'll handle it. You're not his match. The person is at the 9th level of the Tribulation

Crossing realm. Tens of miles away, mountains stretch endlessly. A man in green sits on a tree branch halfway up the mountain, elegantly playing a green bamboo flute. At this moment, Han Ju's voice drifts over. Fellow Taoist, what is the intention behind using this probing technique? The man in green turns and looks at him with a smile. I am Ji Xianzhen from the Heavenly Immortal Mansion. I heard that the Jade Pure Holy Sect has a great cultivator named Loki. Consider the number one in the world. I wish to spar with him and exchange pointers. You're looking

for Loki? He has already left. Over a hundred years ago. Ji Xianzhen smiles. Where did he go? Han Ju replies. He went to deal with the Demon Path. In that case, how about sparring with me instead, without endangering lives? I'm not your match. Ji Xianzhen lets out another cold laugh. Being able to hear my flute sound, you must surely be at the Tribulation Crossing realm. Moreover, I cannot see through your cultivation level. You must be very strong. Isn't that right, Loki? Han Ju remains silent. He begins to ponder how to defeat Ji Xianzhen. This person

is extremely arrogant. If he is defeated, might it anger him? And if it becomes necessary to kill him, could it provoke the Heavenly Immortal Mansion? At this moment, Ji Xianzhen laughs and spreads his hands. Fellow Taoist Loki, I know what you're worried about. Rest assured, I, Ji Xianzhen, swear on my talent, I will not kill you in this battle. Han Ju scoffs inwardly. You really are outrageously arrogant. Han Ju, feeling somewhat helpless, asks, If I win, will you persist in your efforts, or even develop hatred? Ji Xianzhen's smile becomes more enigmatic. No. To be honest,

I am already unmatched under the heavens. How could I harbor hatred towards you? How can you say such things? When it comes to thick skin, you truly are unmatched under the heavens. How about this? We compete in spiritual power, using our palms in combat. Whoever steps back first loses. Let's go to the sky, to avoid affecting the disciples of my sect. Very well. Saying this, the two of them leap up and in an instant, they jump above the sea of clouds, inside a palace on the main peak of the Jade Pure Holy Sect. Han Ju

is watching anxiously. It's Ji Xianzhen. The number one genius of the heavenly immortal mansion has emerged. Fellow Taoist godslaying is in big trouble. High above the sea of clouds, the sky is vast and majestic. Han Ju and Ji Xianzhen stand opposite each other. Ji Xianzhen gestures with his hand. Fellow Taoist Loki, please go ahead. Han Ju doesn't want to strike too harshly. He extracts the thunder's spiritual power from his six paths of spiritual power, and then launches a palm strike. Seeing Han Ju use a thunder technique, Ji Xianzhen lets out a cold laugh. Good. My

fire's spiritual power can counter yours. The moment their spiritual powers collide, the sea of clouds is dispersed, sweeping across hundreds of miles. Both furrow their brows, thinking the same thing. The opponent is somewhat strong. Ji Xianzhen begins to increase his spiritual power. Han Ju does the same, wondering, how should I act? Han Ju feels somewhat conflicted. Ji Xianzhen is also in a dilemma. Should I go all out? Would it be too much if I seriously injure him? The thoughts of the two are almost identical, each considering the other. As their spiritual power grows stronger, the

people of Ascetic Immortal Mountain exclaim, It's rare to see anyone who can match our master after so many years. Sun Changan is also puzzled. Causing such a big commotion doesn't seem like Master's style. Only Chick is the most clear-headed. Master wouldn't make a move if he wasn't prepared to defeat the opponent instantly. He must be acting. Everyone, disperse. The commotion has disturbed the entire Jade Pure Holy set, with countless disciples flying to midair to look towards Han Ju and Ji Xianzhen from afar. Just as Nine Cauldrons Sage was about to lead the elders to provide

support, Du Ku suddenly stopped them. This person is the number one genius of the Heavenly Immortal Mansion, a definitive tribulation crossing realm powerhouse. Going up now would be tantamount to suicide. Nine Cauldrons calms down slightly and asks if the elders could leave any instructions. Du Ku says, Fellow Taoist godslaying asked me to guard the sect to prevent it from being implicated, and indeed, I am not a match for that person. Nine Cauldrons gasps, even you are no match? Then we'd be even less of a challenge. Tao Yao feels somewhat dazed. I was also the number

one genius five thousand years ago. Is the number one genius from fifty hundred years ago not as good as today's? After saying this, Nine Cauldrons tells the elders to disperse. Since Godslaying Elder has made a move, we can just go back inside and continue watching the excitement. If Godslaying Elder wasn't completely confident, he definitely wouldn't have acted. Du Ku looks surprised. Do you all trust Fellow Taoist godslaying that much? At this moment, the battle in the sky has ended. At this point, Ji Xianxian's spiritual power has been scattered by Han Zhu's six paths of spiritual

power. His internal energy and blood are roiling, and blood trickles from the corner of his mouth. Han Zhu looks at his hand helplessly. I still couldn't control my strength. I just added a bit of water's spiritual power and wind's spiritual power. If he can't handle the combination of three paths of spiritual power, there's nothing I can do. Han Zhu teleports in front of Ji Xianxian. If this guy starts harboring hatred, then I'll just eliminate him to avoid future problems. Ji Xianxian asks through gritted teeth. Are you at the Mahayana realm? He has killed major demon

cultivators at the fourth level of the Mahayana realm. How could he lose to the person in front of him? Han Zhu knows this person's temperament is too strong. If I tell him I'm still at the Tribulation Crossing realm, it might just enrage him further. Han Zhu hesitates for a moment then slowly nods. Even so, Ji Xianxian still finds it hard to accept. How could I possibly lose to someone in the Mahayana realm? Why? Han Zhu is speechless inside. You, a ninth level Tribulation Crossing realm cultivator. Why can't you lose to someone in the Mahayana realm?

Han Zhu really wants to kill him. Loki, you are the first person to defeat me, but I will defeat you next time. I am destined to be unrivaled under the heavens. I was born to be an immortal god. Han Zhu hastily nods, patting Ji Xianxian as if consoling a fool. I believe you. Your talent is indeed unparalleled in this world. The future will surely belong to geniuses like you. Ji Xianxian's expression improves. Fellow Taoist Loki, you indeed have a good eye. Ji Xianxian leaves a message before departing. I'm going to find the demon emperor to

practice. I will prove that your words are right. At this moment, Han Zhu also receives a system prompt. At this time, Ji Xianxian has developed a good impression of you. Current favorability is two stars. Alright, fine, fine. Another cheeky one. News of Han Zhu defeating Ji Xianxian causes a sensation in the Jade Pure Holy Sect. Nine Cauldrons leads the elders to congratulate Han Zhu, only to find him quite displeased. We shouldn't be talking about this. The guy earlier is quite petty. If word gets out that he was defeated by me, hurting his pride, he might

come back with reinforcements for revenge. Xiao Yao and Du Ku, well aware of the ways of the Heavenly Immortal Mansion, agree that offending their dignity indeed invites trouble. Upon learning of Ji Xianxian's identity, Nine Cauldrons nearly died of fright and immediately ordered the news to be sealed, absolutely not to be spread. Du Ku, curious about the speed of Han Zhu's spar, wonders if that person's cultivation is far below Han Zhu's. Han Zhu shakes his head. That person's strength is comparable to the Mahayana. We just didn't use our full strength. Hearing the word Mahayana, everyone is

startled. Could it be that Elder Han? To have reached the Mahayana realm, Han Zhu shakes his head with a smile. I am far from Mahayana. Because of the accumulation from my ascetic cultivation, my Tao is slightly superior to his. At this, Du Ku's admiration for Han Zhu deepens. Who would have thought that our small jade pure holy sect harbors such a great master? Becoming close to him might be a great opportunity. However, Han Zhu feels something unusual. It's already late autumn. Why is the weather so hot? Thirteen years pass in a blink, and Han Zhu

breaks through to the eighth level of the Tribulation Crossing realm. When Han Zhu opens his relationship list to check his messages, he finds that leisure true person has perished. This elder from the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate, who initially infiltrated the jade pure holy sect aiming to kill me, ended up being killed instead and never dared to cause trouble again. Instead, he helped the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate surrender to the jade pure holy sect. His death might sadden Lubomi. Such is the cultivation world, where every day, people die. The vicissitudes of life roll on. Fellow Taoists, I will

walk the path for you. Han Zhu silently raises his hands. Bowing respectfully forward, the Enlightenment Sword is puzzled. Master, what are you doing? Han Zhu answers, to bid farewell to those fellow Taoists who have passed away. Who? Who died? Some I barely knew. Many I don't remember. If they were neither close nor memorable, why pay respects? To remind myself that the path of cultivation is fraught with danger. To always remain cautious and never lose a sense of reverence. Enlightenment Sword responds with respect. Master's realm is truly lofty. Master, I'm not sure if I should say

something. Go ahead. Is it normal to have three suns in the sky? In front of the innate cave dwelling, the Fusang tree is acting up. Yang Tiandong and Sun Chang'an exert all their strength, but fail to control it. The force even flinging Sun Chang'an into the sky. Fortunately, Han Zhu arrives in time to stabilize him. What's going on with this tree? Chick, trembling, lies that it only started shaking a few days ago. Han Zhu knows the chicken isn't telling the truth. Ever heard of chicken hotpot? Yellow-braised chicken? Roasted chicken? Chicken stewed with mushrooms? Dark prison

chicken nearly cries out of fear, its voice choked. It fears Han Zhu the most and confesses. Before Fang Liang and the others descended the mountain, I had already quietly started to let it sway. About five years now, Han Zhu is furious. You little chick, you've caused a big disaster this time. Yang Tiandong, get the pot ready. Prepare mushrooms, vermicelli, and potatoes. Just then, Xing Hongxian walks over in a cool outfit. How about I cook this chicken for you and pluck it? I've been wondering why it's been so hot recently. Turns out this fatty chicken has

attracted two more zhudou. Han Zhu wipes sweat from his brow. Cook what? These aren't zhudou. Do you know what these suns are? Xing Hongxian is clueless. The sun is not just a divine beast, but a top-tier divine beast that feeds on dragons and phoenixes, the three-legged golden crow. Han Zhu turns and is dazzled by Xishuan Fairy's appearance. The fairy continues, Since ancient times, it's been said that the extreme heat of the sun could destroy the world, ending an era. This catastrophe is known as the Three Suns in the Sky. Han Zhu internally commends Xishuan Fairy,

didn't expect Master to be a fan of the three-body problem. Xing Hongxian is puzzled, but apart from the sunlight being brighter, the temperature between heaven and earth hasn't risen that much. Has it? Han Zhu silently observes the scenery. Isn't this extreme enough? That Suzaku can't descend shows how difficult it is for immortals and gods to come down. Golden crow can't either, perhaps that's why it's isolated from the mortal world. But if this continues, it will eventually lead to disaster. Hearing golden crow can't descend, Chick timidly asks, Does that mean I won't be stewed with mushrooms?

Han Zhu places dark prison chicken atop the Fuzang tree, warning, If you dare come down again, I'll start by chopping your wings and feet for a barbecue. Xing Hongxian and Xishuan Fairy quickly try to smooth things over. Oh, if it doesn't affect the mortal realm, let's not worry about it. Chick is still a child, what harm could it have intended? Just then, Nine Cauldron Sage finds Han Zhu, Elder Han. There's no rush with the chicken stewed with mushrooms. This sect has an important matter requiring your decision. The Heavenly Immortal Mansion and other sacred lands are

calling for the Righteous Path forces to gather and march together to annihilate the Demon Path Dynasty. Righteous Path sects around Great Swallow are preparing to go, and envoys are currently waiting in the main hall. We didn't dare make a decision without consulting you, please. We need your guidance. Han Zhu didn't expect it to be time to choose sides so soon. Xishuan Fairy analyzes that this might be due to the Three Suns and the Sky Phenomenon. The outside world thinks it's the doing of the Demon Path, so all parties are getting restless. The Heavenly Immortal Mansion

probably has its eye on the Jade Pure sect. If we don't pick a side, we might be seen as part of the Demon Path. Let's go then. Please ask the sect leader to lead personally. After all, the Jade Pure Holy sect isn't strong enough yet. Sending ten thousand cultivators should suffice, and take the Bloodflame Heavenly Gate with you, letting them settle their scores. I'll stay behind to guard the Jade Pure Holy sect, so the sect leader can rest assured. Nine Cauldrons Sage bows, and immediately goes to convey the orders. Just then, Xishuan Fairy speaks up.

I should go too, as a core elder and the Peak Master of one of the Eighteen Peaks. It's my responsibility. Xing Hongxian also insists. Husband, I want to go too. I am the Mistress of the Ascetic Immortal Mountain, and it's my responsibility as well. Hanzhu is stunned. You two ladies, what trouble are you starting now? Hanzhu really doesn't want his master to take risks, but no matter how he tries to persuade her, the woman is determined. Xing Hongxian has also faced troubles with the demonic cults several times, and has sworn to contribute significantly to the

demon eradication effort this time. Hanzhu sighs helplessly, since you both insist on taking this risk. Then take this with you. I've upgraded your Heaven's Puppets to a true complete state. They're not only durable, but also equipped with red tassel spears, though I haven't had the chance to etch the lines and apply the luminescent paint yet. Before departing, Hanzhu instructs Nine-Cauldron Sage to take good care of his cultivation partner and master. Nine-Cauldron Sage assures Hanzhu. Your women will be safe. Not a hair on their heads will be harmed. Watching the three leave, Chick comes over to

Hanzhu. Master, oh master, what will the Jade Pure sect do without you? Hanzhu coldly tells it to scram. From now on, you're not allowed to go fishing anymore. Just sit on the tree and be a chicken. Hanzhu silently prays, hoping that Nine-Cauldron Sage and the others will be safe. With the Heavenly Immortal Mansion leading the team, Jinaiha should be finished this time. In the heartland of the demonic cult, Jinaiha is coldly looking at the person in front of him. Su Qi, oh Su Qi, I've suspected you for a long time. Over the past 60 plus

years, more than 5,000 elite forces have died mysteriously, including a Mahayana realm powerhouse. Our invasion plans have been delayed time and again. After years of investigation, all evidence points to you, who have been with us. Why have you betrayed me? Is this the Demon Master's will? Confess now. Chaotic Heavenly Dog looks at Su Qi with complex eyes, struggling internally. It doesn't know whether it should save Su Qi, but even if it tried, it couldn't change the outcome. It's no match for the Demon Emperor. Your Majesty, it must be the Demon Master forcing Su Qi. He

could never betray you. Su Qi says in a deep voice, it has nothing to do with the Demon Master. I am a righteous path cultivator. I cannot join forces with demons. Su Qi believes firmly. My master will definitely come to save me. Jinaiha narrows his eyes, a murderous intent flickering within. He orders solemnly, Chaotic Heavenly Dog, go and eat him. Upon hearing this, Chaotic Heavenly Dog is shocked. Master, I've been a vegetarian for a long time now. Jinaiha looks menacingly at the Heavenly Dog. Today, only one of you can live. Chaotic Heavenly Dog looks at

Su Qi, and Su Qi looks back calmly. Su Qi shakes his head slightly in resignation. The doggy also doesn't want to attack a fellow disciple. Decades ago, they had already recognized each other, but at that time, Su Qi hadn't recognized the doggy. Though the doggy had recognized Su Qi. However, the doggy's appearance has changed so much over the years that Su Qi dared not acknowledge him rashly. Doggy swears by Chick's life that he is Hanju's most legitimate magical pet, but Su Qi doesn't believe a word of it. Doggy can only show Master's signature expression, prompting

Su Qi to excitedly say, yes, yes, that's it. You really are one of us. Just like Master, the two recount the hardships they've faced over the years while adventuring outside, sharing their intentions to return to the Jade Pure sect together someday. Even if it means dying together and returning to their roots. The more Chaotic Heavenly Dog thinks about it, the more aggrieved it feels, igniting a fury within. What are you waiting for? Qi Naiha impatiently commands, his tone full of dissatisfaction. Chaotic Heavenly Dog's claws click together, and it raises its head to howl, Su Qi,

go back and tell Master that Chaotic Heavenly Dog hasn't faltered. If there's an afterlife, I'll stand by his side without leaving an inch. The dog suddenly turns and lunges at Qi Naiha, cursing, I'll fight you with all I've got. Qi Naiha smirks, touching, touching, yet some still don't understand that submission is the only way to live. It's too late for Su Qi to intervene. Doggy's claws are already striking towards Qi Naiha. After a loud explosion, Doggy is sent flying, blood spilling through the air. I knew your master was Han Zhu from the beginning when I

revived you. I read your memories. A hunch told me he would interfere with my grand plan. Your foolish loyalty disappoints me. Soon, I'll send Han Zhu down to join you. Looking at Doggy, alive or dead, Su Qi transitions from shock to rage in an instant. His eyes engulfed by fury, and strands of dark energy seep into his body. Qi Naiha is secretly alarmed. Could this power be? Just then, a wildly arrogant laughter sounds. Demon Emperor, I've finally found you. Prepare to die. Mahayana Realm, 4th Level's Luo Qiomao wasn't my match, and you're just at the

Tribulation Crossing Realm. Qi Naiha's heart tightens. You're Ji Xianxian. That's right. Knowing my name, you can die now. Since two extra suns appeared in the sky, Han Zhu has been troubled by the mess Chick caused. But the Chicken has become much more obedient, never daring to leave the Fusang Tree again. Since Dark Prison Chicken has resettled in the Fusang Tree, why haven't the two Golden Crows left? It's easy to invite the gods, but hard to send them away. Han Zhu suddenly has a bold idea. Why not take this opportunity to seek advice from a powerhouse?

He instructs his disciples not to approach him as he contemplates. A month later, during a battlefield where righteous and demon paths are clashing, an anomaly suddenly descends from the sky. The swords of sword cultivators from both sides involuntarily fly out of their hands, heading in a particular direction. The battlefield quiets down instantly, with the weapons gone. How could the battle continue, especially since sword cultivators are more common among the righteous path? This turn of events delights the demon cultivators, whose variously shaped weapons are now coming in handy. However, the righteous path cultivators were prepared. Having

learned from past experiences, they all pulled up their red tassel spears to charge. All the treasured swords from across the world flew towards the direction of ascetic Immortal Mountain. Han Zhu, familiar with the way, arrived at the river of the Way of the Sword, as if returning to his maternal home. He moved straight ahead and soon saw Zhang Gu Xing. Elder! Elder! Zhang Gu Xing did not pay attention to Han Zhu, as he had come too frequently. Breaking the silence with a chuckle, Han Zhu asked, Elder, do you know about the Golden Crow? Zhang Gu

Xing was annoyed. You attained enlightenment in the Way of the Sword just to ask me about the Golden Crow? Han Zhu, of course, couldn't admit that was right and instead claimed he was deeply passionate about the Way of the Sword and just happened to achieve enlightenment. So he took the opportunity to ask the Elder. Zhang Gu Xing explained that the Golden Crow is an ancient divine beast that can transform into the sun. The Golden Crow is divided into the Moral Golden Crow and the Divine Golden Crow. The Moral Golden Crow is the son of the

Moral Realm, forever bound to its realm, unable to leave or increase its cultivation. The Divine Golden Crow is one of the divine races in the Celestial Realm with profound heritage. The Celestial Court, Divine Palaces, and the Demon Palace dare not provoke them lightly. Hearing this, Han Zhu felt a sinking feeling in his heart. If the Moral Golden Crow cannot leave, then the two new suns in the sky are likely Divine Golden Crows. Han Zhu continued to ask, Can the Divine Golden Crow enter the Moral Realm? Of course not. The true sun fire on their bodies

is enough to destroy the Moral Realm, and heavenly rules strictly forbid them from descending. Zhang Gu Xing seemed to think of something, immediately calculating with his fingers. Muttering to himself, the Divine Golden Crow clan has been in constant strife recently. If that's really the case, it's a big deal. After seeing the image of the Moral Realm, Zhang Gu Xing cursed, How could there be two Divine Golden Crows above your Moral Realm? Although they are young Divine Golden Crows, Han Zhu asks, Are young Divine Golden Crows strong? Zhang Gu Xing replies, Saying they are not strong.

They haven't been born long and have only about Mahayana level of cultivation. Only, this time, it's Han Zhu's turn to curse. Just born with Mahayana cultivation, Han Zhu feels insulted. Why doesn't the Divine Golden Crow clan discipline them? If they run to our Moral Realm, it would be a disaster for us mortals. Zhang Gu Xing answers, Who knows? It's not my concern. My duty is to guard the Way of the Sword. Other matters are unrelated to me. I haven't seen anything, and you shouldn't expect me to help you. Han Zhu falls silent, realizing that being

behind means getting hit. Relying on others is not as good as relying on oneself. He needs to hurry up to the ninth level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, lest he can't even beat two little chicks by then. Three breaths later, he moves past Zhang Gu Xing and continues forward. Since he's here, he might as well strive to become stronger. Like the last time, Han Zhu takes six steps, and a sword energy soars into the sky from Ascetic Immortal Mountain, upgrading his mysterious yellow sword energy to the Taiyi Divine Ability. Han Zhu continues to cultivate, aiming

for the next small goal, the ninth level of the Tribulation Crossing Realm. In a dark cave somewhere, greedy demon Arhat, white-haired witch, blood demon ancestor, and demon lord Xian Qing Jun sit together. The fall of one of their number has cast a gloomy atmosphere over them. Blood demon ancestor says, the demon emperor's recovery speed is slowing down, and he frequently suffers backlash from the demonic energy within his body. In my opinion, the demon emperor is being affected by some external factors, supporting him as we have. It doesn't seem worth it anymore. Greedy demon Arhat speaks

solemnly, I didn't expect the Heavenly Immortal Mansion to be so strong. Ji Xian Qing has surpassed the category of a genius. Even if we were to face him one-on-one, we might not be his match. Blood demon ancestor looks towards Xian Qing Jun, demon lord, are you confident in dealing with Ji Xian Qing? Xian Qing Jun responds emotionlessly, I do have confidence, but they've asked me to remain neutral. After all, taking action at the eighth level of the Mahayana Realm could destroy heavens and earth. I can't act rashly before they make a move. Blood demon ancestor

is unwilling to wait any longer, we must eliminate Ji Xian Qing before he grows too powerful. Greedy demon Arhat and white-haired witch urge the ancestor to act quickly, given that among the four of them, aside from Xian Qing Jun, blood demon ancestor is the strongest and naturally, the ancestor himself is reluctant to take the lead. The Heavenly Immortal Mansion is not so easily provoked. The demon lord indicates indifferently, Ji Xian Qing won't cause much trouble for now, but what about those two golden crows in the sky? What kind of omen is this? The four demon

path leaders fall silent for a moment, white-haired witch speaks up cautiously, we demon cultivators have never been favored by Heaven's Dao. Do you think this might be Heaven's Dao preparing to intervene? Blood demon ancestor instructs the demon lord to quickly investigate in the netherworld. If Heaven's Dao really plans to intervene, we should withdraw as soon as possible. The demon lord agrees and opens a portal to the netherworld. In an instant, demonic energy tears open a spatial rift and the demon lord says, this trip may take decades, can you maintain the situation here? The three assure

her not to worry. The demon lord says hopefully, then heads to the netherworld without looking back. After the demon lord leaves, blood demon ancestor remembers the grand ceremony and instructs the white-haired witch to make thorough preparations. Whether the demon path can unite depends on this ceremony. Eleven years have passed in the blink of an eye, and one day Han Ju receives a system prompt. It has been detected that you have reached 600 years old, advancing further in life. You have the following choices. 1. Immediately leave seclusion to slay demons and monsters, making a name for

yourself, and receive one spiritual treasure. Or 2. Continue cultivating away from the mundane world, aiming for the Mahayana realm, and receive one spiritual treasure and a bottle of random elixir. Without a second thought, Han Ju chooses the second option. Congratulations, you've obtained the Taiyi Spiritual Treasure Titan Spirit Bracers. Congratulations, you've obtained a bottle of Mahayana Soul Thought Pill. The Titan Spirit Bracers, a 5th grade Taiyi spiritual treasure, can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, enhancing physical strength in battle. The Mahayana Soul Thought Pill, an elixir for Mahayana realm cultivators to strengthen the soul.

Another Taiyi spiritual treasure. Not bad at all. Han Ju's mood immediately improves. The Mahayana Soul Thought Pill is not something he can use at the moment, as he has already reached the peak of the 9th level of the Tribulation Crossing realm. He checks his relationships and emails, not having scrolled through his social circle in over a decade. Su Qi went mad from cultivation, and the chaotic Heavenly Dog. These two guys have it tough. The demon path is too resilient, despite the number of demon cultivators being less than a third of the righteous path. This war

between righteousness and evil has lasted for decades, and might even continue for a hundred years. Where do these endless demon cultivators come from? Luckily, I didn't participate. Better to cultivate well than to fight. Han Ju turns his attention to the sky above Ascetic Immortal Mountain. The two golden crows are still there, truly persistent. Han Ju starts checking the cultivation levels of others. Yang Tiandong and Sun Chang'an have reached the 9th level of the Nascent Soul realm. Enlightenment Sword has reached the 7th level of the Nascent Soul realm, and Chick, eating and sleeping daily, has also

reached the 7th level of the Fusion Void realm. Han Ju proudly says, better to cultivate well like my disciples of the Han sect than to waste time fighting. Fang Liang has now astonishingly reached the 9th level of the Nascent Soul realm, truly worthy of being a child of heaven and earth. In such a short time, he's almost caught up to Su Qi. Given a bit more time, the strongest in our sect will undoubtedly be Fang Liang. Somewhere in a cave, Fang Liang has already begun his tribulation crossing. Heavens down naturally wouldn't make it difficult for

a child of heaven and earth. This thunder tribulation feels as refreshing as a spring breeze. As the last few thunderbolts strike in a perfunctory manner, golden lotuses of fortune start raining from the sky. Han Ju watches as Fang Liang's icon progresses from Nascent Soul to Spirit Transformation and can't help but exclaim in surprise, what? I was just talking about you, and you're breaking through already? Han Ju turns to notice the golden lotuses of fortune, which have now filled the Setic Immortal Mountain and probably the entire cultivation world. The grandeur of a child of heaven and

earth indeed benefits everyone under the heavens, sharing the benefits of Fang Liang's breakthrough with the world. These golden lotuses are full of fortune, greatly benefiting cultivation, especially at critical moments of breakthrough. Sun Chang'an and Yang Tiandong also take advantage of the fortune from the golden lotuses to break through to the Spirit Transformation realm. However, breaking through means they must face tribulation crossing, and the combined force of their tribulations might be too much for a Setic Immortal Mountain to bear. Han Ju considers separating them and sending them to the Myriad Demon realm to undergo their tribulations

separately, as the combined force of their thunder tribulations might be unbearable. Han Ju fails to notice that he too has been touched by the golden lotuses of fortune. A golden lotus quietly lands on his shoulder, causing his already overflowing spiritual power to burst forth completely. He feels his spiritual power surging tumultuously within him. Though he planned to consolidate his cultivation a bit longer, he now has no choice but to break through, with the other two already set to break through, adding himself into the mix. Not only is the Setic Immortal Mountain at risk of being

flattened, but the entire Jade Pure sect might also be obliterated. Just when Han Ju was about to undergo his tribulation, he was suddenly transported to a void. Confused, he talked to himself, only to be informed by the system that this place is the Heavenly Tribulation Space, specially designed for those breaking through to the Mahayana realm. Han Ju cursed in surprise, not expecting such a privilege for the Mahayana realm. This was for the best, as the mortal world would not be devastated by his breakthrough. He now just hoped that Sun Qian and Yan Tian Dong were

aware of the rules, and would hurry to the Myriad Demon realm for their tribulation crossing. Just as Han Ju was settling in for his tribulation crossing, the system notified him that if others within his tribulation crossing range also met the conditions for tribulation crossing, they too would be brought to this space for a collective tribulation crossing. Immediately afterward, Han Ju saw his two foolish disciples. Han Ju was dumbfounded, and so were they. If the power of three people undergoing tribulation crossing were to stack, it's likely none could survive. Just then, as they looked towards the

horizon, terrifying clouds of calamity rolled in. There was no escaping now, but suddenly a powerful bolt of heavenly lightning struck the clouds, instantly dissipating them. Yan Tian Dong and Sun Qian thought they had escaped, but Han Ju knew it was not good. The clouds that had been dispersed were their clouds of calamity, and it was his Mahayana heavenly lightning that had dispersed them. In an instant, a thunderbolt a kilometer wide descended, followed by countless more. In this seemingly endless void of the tribulation crossing space, the three found nowhere to hide. Han Ju, protected by his

Taiyi spiritual treasure, might withstand it, but his two disciples surely couldn't endure such intensity. Yan Tian Dong mentioned he had read about group thunder tribulation in a book, and the author must have survived to have written about it. The method was to quickly huddle down. Han Ju cursed for the third time, is this a dignified way to die? Numerous thick bolts of heavenly lightning continued to strike down, seemingly with eyes as none hit the three of them. Thus, they endured three months in the thunder tribulation. What are you guys doing? Enlightenment swords suddenly appeared behind

Han Ju and asked, don't bother me. What you see were undergoing tribulation crossing? The three suddenly realized, how could she be here too? Looking up, not only had they returned to Ascetic Immortal Mountain, but their cultivation levels had also increased. Han Ju looked at the three suns in the sky, confirming they were back in the present world. Why had the heavenly tribulation passed so easily? Enlightenment sword pointed to a purple stone she had placed behind Han Ju. After you gave this to me, my cultivation did increase a bit faster, but it wasn't much help, so

I thought of returning it to master. After placing the stone down, she went off to fish. Looking at the enlightenment stone, Han Ju suddenly realizes its purpose. Could it be that this stone's function isn't for enlightenment, but for avoiding tribulation? This stone could help immortals remain in the moral world, without being restricted by Heaven's Tao rules. Now it can also avoid heavenly tribulation, essentially concealing its user from Heaven's Tao. The Mahayana realm is the highest cultivation level that can be sustained by the moral realm. Upon reaching the peak of the ninth level, one is forcibly

expelled and ascends. With this stone, could I avoid the forced ascension by Heaven's Tao and stay in the moral realm indefinitely? With the help of the purple stone, Han Ju smoothly breaks through the tribulation-crossing realm. He suppresses his excitement to consolidate his cultivation, and the system presents him with breakthrough rewards. Congratulations on advancing to the Mahayana realm. You have the following choices. 1. Immediately ascend and leave the moral coil, receiving one divine ability inheritance, one Heaven's Tao spirit stone, and one spiritual treasure. Or 2. Immediately continue cultivating and not ascend yet, receiving one spiritual treasure.

Seeing the prompt, Han Ju raises an eyebrow. System, are you tempting me to ascend? Impossible. After being with me for so long, you should know my temperament. I won't consider ascending without reaching the Tai Earth Immortal Cultivation level, especially since I already have several enemies above. I will continue to lie low in the moral realm. Han Ju immediately chooses the second option. You choose to continue cultivating and not ascend yet, receiving one spiritual treasure. Congratulations. You have obtained the Tai's Spiritual Treasure Imperial Dragon Fate Sedan. The Imperial Dragon Fate Sedan, a second-grade Tai's spiritual treasure,

is a mount-type magical treasure that can withstand a full-force strike from a scattered immortal. Han Ju's eyes light up. This perfect golden finish, these sturdy off-road tires, and it can withstand a full-force strike from a scattered immortal. What a great item. Not letting the joy of receiving a new treasure cloud his judgment, Han Ju immediately starts a simulation trial. This time, he does not adjust Xian Qing Jun's cultivation level, and directly confronts an 8th-level Mahayana realm Xian Qing Jun, unleashing her full strength. Xian Qing Jun quickly makes a move, using an unknown technique that sends

countless vengeful spirits rushing towards Han Ju. With a slight motion of his finger, Han Ju uses the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Boundary Breaking Sword finger, a sword energy sweeping across, instantly obliterating Xian Qing Jun. Han Ju dusts off his car, feeling a boost in confidence. Now, there should be no mortal who can kill me in the moral realm. But knowing this isn't enough, Han Ju plans to comprehend the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Boundary Breaking Sword finger again. After breaking through to the Mahayana realm, he should be able to further enhance the limit of

this divine ability. Han Ju turns, and gets into the car, intending to speed through the river of the Way of the Sword. Speeding along, he quickly encounters Zhang Gu Xing. Zhang Gu Xing, annoyed, says, why have you come again? Is it interesting to keep enhancing the same divine ability? Can't you properly cultivate to strengthen your cultivation? Being told he doesn't cultivate properly irks Han Ju. There's no one in the moral realm more devoted to ascetic cultivation than I am. Zhang Gu Xing pauses, then takes a closer look. You've already reached the Mahayana realm? How many

years has it been? Not only is this child's talent in the Way of the Sword unparalleled, but his cultivation talent is also terrifying. Zhang Gu Xing takes another look at Han Ju, then turns to gaze at his departing figure. For some reason, Zhang Gu Xing feels that Han Ju has changed. He no longer seems to be a mere mortal. Meanwhile, on a cliff outside a cave, a figure is leisurely playing a bamboo flute. It is none other than Qi Xian Xin. Inside the cave, a large pot is stewing Su Qi. With chaotic heavenly dog-looking worried

elder, can he really recover his sanity from going mad with cultivation? Qi Xian Xin reassures, the child went mad from cultivation because he couldn't control the power within him. Like me, he was born extraordinary, containing a powerful force surpassing ordinary beings. With the secret medicine of our heavenly immortal mansion, it won't be long before he can master his power and recover his sanity. And it's not just our skill in medicine that's top-notch. Even our soup-making is unparalleled. Chaotic heavenly dog points to the big pot behind him. No wonder I smelled the aroma of stewed meat.

Qi Xian Xin scolds, the secret medicine needs to simmer on low heat. Who told you to turn up the heat to reduce the sauce? Just then, Qi Xian Xin feels the trembling of his sword. He looks towards the horizon at the purple twilight, the signature of the ancient Way of the Sword within the Great Swallow Territory. Could it be that person's Way of the Sword has made another breakthrough? I can't beat him head-on. And now I'm also inferior in the Way of the Sword? Qi Xian Xin, feeling extremely er, stands up abruptly. Chaotic heavenly dog

quickly asks where he plans to go. To which Qi Xian Xin coldly replies, I'm going to slaughter a demon sect to vent my anger. After Qi Xian Xin leaves, Chaotic heavenly dog turns back to look at Su Qi, thinking, should we leave without him? Hesitating, although Qi Xian Xin saved them, Chaotic heavenly dog always felt that Qi Xian Xin had his own agenda. I really want to return to the Great Swallow. Would leaving like this anger Qi Xian Xin? Although Master has slain the Green Python Great Sage and may have reached the Tribulation Crossing Realm,

Qi Xian Xin is someone who has killed beings in the Mahayana Realm. Doggy doesn't want him causing trouble for Master. Chaotic heavenly dog hesitates in its heart. I can't cause more trouble for Master. Let's wait until Su Qi recovers. As Qi Xian Xin walks down the mountain, he broods and muses, I, Qi Xian Xin, should be the number one in the world. You, Loki, are merely a stepping stone for me. In chaotic times, I am the pinnacle of humanity. In times of peace and prosperity, my heart becomes that of an immortal. Just then, Qi Xian

Xin notices a tornado approaching. He doesn't take this small anomaly seriously. Why are there sharks swimming in that tornado? Elsewhere, numerous cultivators are detained in a grand hall, all in a state of despair. This hall is vast, holding tens of thousands of cultivators. An old acquaintance, Huang Jihao, sits meditating in a corner, his hair unkempt and looking extremely haggard. At this moment, a towering figure appears. I give you three days. When the grand ceremony to welcome the demon begins, those who still refuse to submit will become sacrifices. The speaker is Greedy Demon Arhat. Despite being

haggard, Huang Jihao's Tao heart is firm, and he coldly replies, I, a Righteous Path cultivator, will never stoop to associate with the likes of you. The other cultivators also express their support, implying that when the Righteous Path Alliance arrives, his arrogance will be challenged. Greedy Demon Arhat laughs. Are you referring to them? With a wave of his hand, a black fog instantly fills the hall. As the fog dissipates, Huang Jihao and the others are shocked by what they see. The first thing they notice is Elder Guan, along with Nine Cauldron Sage, Xishuan Fairy, and other

Jade Pure Sect elders, all tightly bound. It turns out that the Jade Pure Holy Sect had just arrived, with the main force temporarily stationed outside the Demon Emperor's royal city, led by Nine Cauldron Sage and several elders to scout the city in advance. So this is the Demon Path royal city? It looks quite dilapidated. It's said that Demon Cultivators often go mad, so the Demon Emperor doesn't bother to rebuild the city. Yet, surprisingly, not a single Demon Cultivator is seen within the vast royal city, making everyone feel quite eerie. Nine Cauldron Sage speculates that maybe

the Demon Cultivators are being held back by Allied forces. But Xishuan Fairy wonders, how come we can't see any members of the Righteous Path sects that enter the city before us? How could tens of thousands of Righteous Path elites just disappear? Xing Hongxian also feels something is off. Even if we were to split up, we would have signaled first. Liu Bami, walking alongside Nine Cauldron Sage, speaks in a low voice, sect leader. Have you noticed another strange thing? What is it? Nine Cauldrons asks. It seems like we can't finish off the Demon Cultivators no matter

how many we kill. Logically, their numbers shouldn't surpass those of the Righteous Path. Yet, after decades of war, Demon Cultivators are still everywhere. Moreover, the number of Righteous Path Cultivators seems to be decreasing. Nine Cauldron Sage's expression changes. Do you mean there are continuous betrayals? Liu Bami's expression is grave, with one decreasing and the other increasing. I suspect there's a force in the Demon Path converting Righteous Path Cultivators into Demon Cultivators. Along the way, we've encountered many Demon Cultivators who've gone mad from cultivation, yet their aura feels eerily familiar. Nine Cauldron Sage shivers inside, unable

to remain calm any longer. Because Liu Bami is right. After all, those willing to fall into the Demon Path are in the minority. Yet, as this century-long battle between good and evil continues, the number of Demon Cultivators only seems to increase, indicating a troubling fact. These Demon Cultivators were once their own people. Understanding something, Nine Cauldron Sage immediately turns and orders, Everyone follow me in retreat. Just then, a thunderous noise comes from the sky, and a figure crashes down from the rolling dark clouds directly onto where everyone is, creating an impact like a meteorite and

a towering figure steps on Nine Cauldron Sage. Nine Cauldrons orders the Jade Pure Sect disciples to flee quickly, while Xixuan Fairy and other elders open a path for their disciples. But Greedy Demon Arhat slowly brings his hands together. Amitbha, where do you think you're going? Since you're here, why not join the demons? With that, a massive hand reaches out for everyone, and no one has the strength to escape. Now, the elites of the Righteous Path are all trapped in this grand hall, and although there are many disciples from various Righteous Path sects outside, none have

the power to contend with the Mahayana realm. Just then, with a flick of Greedy Demon Arhat's finger, a Righteous Path disciple is lifted into the air and instantly twisted into a pretzel. Greedy Demon Arhat coldly looks at everyone. This is the fate of those who refuse to submit. Wait! I'm willing to become a demon cultivator! A Righteous Path chubby elder shouts loudly, trembling as he stands up. Cultivators around him cast angry glares. Huang Jihao, although his hands are bound, attempts to slay the traitor. He stomps his feet and charges towards the chubby man, intending to

stab him with his cornet. However, Greedy Demon Arhat sweeps him away with a slap, sending Huang Jihao flying. Greedy Demon Arhat protects the traitor very well. The wise adapt to changes. Now, you'll be in charge of them. With that, Greedy Demon Arhat moves his fingers, and strands of dark energy instantly penetrate the chubby man's body. As the chubby man screams in agony, everyone watches in horror. Soon, he falls into demonhood, the surging power within making him feel incredibly comfortable. He instantly exerts pressure, urging everyone present to surrender and enjoy the feast of demonic energy. After

this episode, many with weaker Tao Hearts immediately switch sides, declaring their intention to follow the Demon Emperor in unifying the world. Some disciples from the Jade Pure Holy Sect also start to become restless. Nine Cauldrons Sage speaks solemnly. Disciples of the Jade Pure Holy Sect can only die with integrity, never to submit to demons. Anyone who dares to betray the sect and join the Demon Cultivators, do not blame the Godslaying Elder for purging the sect afterward. Hearing this, those with wavering Tao Hearts look at each other, suddenly feeling a glimmer of hope. That's right, the

Godslaying Elder hasn't made a move yet. Perhaps there's still a chance. The disciples begin to show their determination again. However, Xing Hongxian sighs, realizing the situation is beyond Han Zhu's help. He couldn't possibly traverse mountains and seas in a short time, considering it took them decades to get here. Xing Hongxian silently grieves. Husband, if fate allows, let's be husband and wife again in the next life. Meanwhile, inside the innate cave abode, Han Zhu enters the River of the Way of the Sword again. This time, he advances an entire twenty steps beyond Tai, elevating the Heaven

and Earth mysterious yellow boundary-breaking sword finger to a new level. This divine ability can break through realms and strike from afar, similar to instantaneous spatial jumps, as long as his spiritual sense can capture the target. He can achieve long-range kills, regardless of the distance. The Heaven and Earth mysterious yellow boundary-breaking sword finger's lethality is boundless. Han Zhu believes there are few in the moral realm who can withstand it. When Han Zhu checks his social media, he discovers Xing Hongxian's message, revealing that many fellow Taoists have been trapped by demon cultivators. Han Zhu frowns. Has the

Jade Pure Holy Sect been overrun just like that? They all had the protection of the Heavenly Puppet. How were they all captured? Han Zhu immediately connects his consciousness with Xing Hongxian's puppet. Finding the puppet trapped in a warm and dark environment, with only a sliver of light shining through a crack, he instantly realizes where it is. Given Xing Hongxian's habit of keeping odd things there, the puppet suddenly pops its head out, startling Xing Hongxian, and her scream attracts the attention of the guarding demon cultivators. Xishuan Fairy is seen bound and being interrogated by Lu, the

previously betrayed chubby elder. Han Zhu telepathically instructs the puppet to keep Xing Hongxian quiet. She says, Husband, we've been captured by greedy demon Arhat. The four demon path leaders are capturing righteous path cultivators en masse. Most captured cultivators have been tempted into demonhood, while those of us who refuse are to be used as sacrifices in the welcoming demon ceremony. There seems to be a deeper secret with the demon emperor. He might be planning to summon more powerful demons to the moral realm. Han Zhu reassures her, Don't worry, I'll take action when the time is right.

Xing Hongxian shakes her head helplessly. The righteous path has already lost many tribulation-crossing realm cultivators, and your puppet's power is far from matching the four demon path leaders. We've completely fallen this time. Let's be husband and wife again in the next life. Han Zhu encourages her, Don't lose hope. Hasn't the heavenly immortal mansion made a move? Xing Hongxian shakes her head again. Perhaps even the heavenly immortal mansion is struggling. Han Zhu ponders, Seeing that the demon path has gained the upper hand. He comforts Xing Hongxian a few more times, telling her to keep the puppet

close for constant contact. In the welcoming demon ceremony, isn't it to summon ancient demonic tribes? Now I have no choice but to intervene. If the demonic tribes arrive, the world will be even less peaceful. Han Zhu raises his right hand and erects his middle finger. When the time comes, it's all on you. Seeing Han Zhu's gesture, enlightenment sword is puzzled. Master, that's a unique gesture. Is it the starting position for a divine ability of the godly hand? Han Zhu says, Han Zhu's divine ability should not be used lightly. Only in a do-or-die situation. What does

it do? Han Zhu ignores the question, simply stating, It will make you feel better before you die. Ever since Dark Prison Chicken was punished and not allowed to descend from the Fusang tree, it felt as if it was serving a prison sentence. Days dragging on like years. Suddenly, a familiar voice is heard from under the tree. It turns out to be Murong Qi returning from his cultivation journey. Han Zhu asks Murong Qi what he has gained from his journey. Murong Qi hesitates, his expression anxious. Grandmaster, may I ask you a question? Among all the paths

in the world, which one is the strongest? Is it the way of the sword? Han Zhu tells him, there is no strongest path, only the strongest cultivators. Murong Qi nods. Grandmaster, I feel like I'm not suited for the way of the sword. Recently, when I go out on missions, I find my combat abilities to be mediocre. I thought I could compensate for my lack of talent with hard work. But despite all the effort, I haven't made much progress. With a composed inquiry, Han Zhu asks, since the way of the sword doesn't suit you, why not

switch to another path? Murong Qi is shocked, not expecting Han Zhu to approve of him changing paths. Han Zhu asks what path Murong Qi feels more suited to. Murong Qi says, I feel I'm more suited to the path of weapons, specifically long spears or pole arms. But few cultivators use pole arms. They are more suited for mortal wars. Murong Qi is about to show him when Han Zhu unsurprisingly comments, as expected of the war god from the Divine Palace, war gods often use pole arms, both in mythology and the mortal realm. With a flicker of

golden light from his fingertip, Han Zhu reveals, I had foreseen your affinity for the spear path, and have already made you a long spear from a branch of the Fusang tree. Calling it the mystical branch curved blade spear, the disciples are astonished. The Fusang tree is Han Zhu's most precious treasure, even attracting two sons. Unbelievably, for his disciple, Han Zhu gave him a part of the Fusang tree, a treatment no one else has ever received. Murong Qi gratefully accepts his grandmaster's generosity, his admiration for Han Zhu instantly reaching five stars. At this moment, Han Zhu

speaks again, currently, in the battle between good and evil, our righteous path has fallen into a disadvantage. Today, I prepare to lend a hand. On this occasion, I will impart teachings to you all. Whether you can comprehend a divine ability or law of your own will depend on your fate. Elsewhere, as greedy demon Arhat gives the command, the ritual for the welcoming demon ceremony officially begins. Following greedy demon Arhat's instructions, the demon cultivators start escorting righteous path cultivators to the altar. The righteous path cultivators curse the demon cultivators, wishing them a dire fate, and many

are directly trampled to death by the traitorous Lu, the chubby elder. Suddenly, Lu, the chubby elder, screams in agony, feeling a sudden heat in his posterior, courtesy of Huang Jihao's unique headgear delivering a devastating blow. Righteous path cultivators are escorted one after another towards the altar. Xing Hongxian softly says again, husband, let's be husband and wife again in the next life. Xishuan fairy asks calmly, is your husband elder Han? Although Xing Hongxian also resides on ascetic immortal mountain, the two women don't interact much. That might not be possible in the next life. By the time

you reincarnate, he may have already become an immortal. Xing Hongxian is instantly dismayed. What? Does that mean we'll be worlds apart? Meanwhile, Xishuan fairy's lips curl up in a concealed smile. At this moment, Gu Yugong approaches, junior sister, before dying, there's something I've held back for a long time that I want to say. Xishuan fairy coldly replies, I don't want to hear it, but thank you for looking after me in this life. If fate allows in the next life, I'm willing to be your mother and take care of you for a lifetime. Nearly a hundred

thousand righteous path cultivators are solemnly led out of the grand hall. Xishuan fairy is shocked by the sight before her. By the altar, piles of bones burn endlessly, and cultivators who have turned into demon cultivators are not few, neatly arranged like an army. How many righteous path cultivators did the demon emperor capture? Is there really no hope left? What about the heavenly immortal mansion and those sacred places? A female disciple speaks with indignation. Before being captured, they all thought victory was within reach, not realizing the nightmare had just begun. Nine Cauldron Sage is secretly alarmed.

How could there be so many demon cultivators? How did those righteous path cultivators so quickly turn into demon cultivators? Logically, converting spiritual power into demonic energy requires a process of cultivation, not something that can be done in a short time by abandoning one's cultivation and starting over. On a distant hill, Su Qi and Chaotic Heavenly Dog peer out from behind a rock. Chaotic Heavenly Dog trembles. There are so many demon cultivators. Are we really going out? We barely escaped from the demon emperor's grasp. I don't want to risk danger again. Su Qi solemnly responds, as

hearts belong to the righteous path. How can we cower in fear? If the demon emperor's plans succeed today, the world will surely fall into chaos. Looking back then, it might be because we lacked this effort. Chaotic Heavenly Dog looks distressed. This kid is too righteous. If only Ji Xianxian could come now and take them out. On a setic immoral mountain, Li Qingzi hurries over. Elder Han, the sect leader and others have been captured. What should we do? The distance caused his news to be delayed by more than a year. Han Zhu responds, wait, they'll be

fine. In reality, he's using the innate puppet to observe the situation in the demon path royal city. Han Zhu is waiting for someone, demon emperor Jinaiha. As long as Jinaiha is killed, the demon path will naturally collapse. Li Qingzi asks why Han Zhu is waiting for Jinaiha. Are you planning to go rescue them now? Han Zhu says it's obviously too late to go now, but there's no need for such trouble. I'm about to lecture through battle. At this point, Murong Qi asks the first question. Grandmaster, I've always been puzzled. Should we pursue longevity or strength?

Han Zhu answers, each being has their own aspiration. My ambition is endless life. And my answer to you is, when you are the last one standing in this world, then you are the strongest. Murong Qi is lost in thought for a moment, as he still can't understand what Han Zhu means by the last. Sun Chang'an continues with a question. Grandmaster, there are heavenly laws and heaven's Tao, and reincarnation is one of those laws. Doesn't becoming an immortal mean escaping the cycle of life and death? Han Zhu calmly states, immortals and gods are just beings more

powerful than mortals. Far from true eternal life. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many stories of gods reincarnating in myths. Who said reaching immortality is the end of cultivation? Sun Chang'an becomes even more puzzled. Then what exactly is the endless lifespan you pursue? Han Zhu continues, because the end of the Tao is far away. We must cherish the present. Keeping a little cultivation time today might seem insignificant. Think about how much time you'd waste in a thousand years, ten thousand years, or a million years. Sun Chang'an has an epiphany. Immediately bows in gratitude to Han Zhu.

Han Zhu's seemingly distracted lecture appears profound and detached from worldly concerns to his disciples. Chicken and Enlightenment Sword curiously ask Han Zhu what realm he is in now, and when he can reach Mahayana. Han Zhu calmly states, I am already in the Mahayana realm. This revelation shocks everyone. Mahayana realm. The highest realm in the mortal world. Sun Chang'an and Yang Tian Dong, however, are not surprised, as they have accompanied Han Zhu through many thunder tribulations. At the moment of the welcoming demon ceremony, the sky rumbles with thunder and blood churns. As Blood Demon Ancestor appears

first, he releases his terrifying pressure, making all cultivators on the altar feel as if they've been struck by a heavy hammer. Blood Demon Ancestor looks up at the sky and murmurs, it's coming. A figure slowly emerges from the vortex in the sky, arriving with a terrifying pressure, appearing above the altar with a demeanor that looks down upon the world. Demon Emperor Ji Nei He has finally arrived. As Ji Nei He descends amidst the welcome of hundreds of thousands of demon cultivators, all righteous path cultivators on the altar dare not make a sound, only nervously watching

the sky. Demon Emperor Ji Nei He spreads his arms and begins, followers of the demon path, let me tell you a story. At the dawn of the universe, when chaos reigned and all was void, demons existed before gods, and then humans and immortals came into being. The Way of the Demon seeks freedom from the constraints of Heaven's Tao, pursuing eternal life and acting according to one's desires. Ji Nei He's voice, filled with a sense of the ancient, leads the demon cultivators back to that primordial era. Han Ju, listening through the innate puppet, thinks to himself,

this Demon Emperor really has a way with words. Just then, a voice interrupts Ji Nei He's speech. The newcomer sneering, you think you're the leader of the demon cultivators? Ji Nei He frowns and looks towards the source of the voice, as do Blood Demon Ancestor and A terrifying aura bursts from the horizon, thunder roaring as Ji Xianqian strides through a storm of lightning. He appears excited and confident, laughing wildly at Ji Nei He. I let you off last time, but this time, I will kill you. His arrival excites all cultivators at the welcoming demon ceremony.

After years of the great battle between good and evil, Ji Xianqian, with his formidable strength, has become renowned throughout the world, even considered the strongest by many. Ji Xianqian also contemplates, if he defeats Ji Nei He today in front of both righteous and demon forces, he will be hailed as the true savior of the world. Su Qi and Chaotic Heavenly Dog look up at the scene in the sky. Chaotic Heavenly Dog remarks, has he gotten stronger again? Su Qi gazes at the silhouette of Ji Xianqian, his eyes filled with shock and a hint of unease,

sensing that things might not be as straightforward as they seem. Ji Nei He curses at White-Haired Witch and others for their inefficiency in holding back Ji Xianqian. Blood Demon Ancestor helplessly states that the elite forces previously dispatched were all consumed by the shark tornado, and White-Haired Witch and the others had already exerted their full strength against the old monsters of Heavenly Immortal Mansion. With a cold snort, Ji Nei He declares, in that case, there's no need for me to hide anymore. Although I'm still a bit away from my peak, my current strength is enough to

dominate the mortal world. He then forms a sword gesture with his hand and casts a spell at Ji Xianqian. This sudden move shocks the two lords, revealing that Ji Nei He had been hiding his true power. Ji Xianqian, seeing Ji Nei He's preemptive strike, finds himself unable to dodge. Ji Nei He lets out a cold laugh, releasing the oppressive force of a peak Mahayana realm level 8. You insects, relying on secret methods to temporarily reach Mahayana, are essentially still in the Tribulation Crossing realm. Today, let me show you the gap between levels within the Mahayana

realm. With that, Ji Nei He's gaze intensifies, and his move solidly hits Ji Xianqian. The Demon Path's two lords cheer as Ji Xianqian is taken down with a single blow. This unexpected turnaround not only stuns Doggy and Su Qi, but also plunges the Righteous Path, who had just begun to hope for rescue, back into despair. At the same time, Xing Hongxian hears a voice, take out the Heavenly Puppet. Hearing this and recognizing Han Zhu's voice, she immediately brings out the Heavenly Puppet. The Puppet raises its right hand, pointing its finger towards Ji Nei He in

the sky. Now is the time, right now, while Ji Nei He is relaxed from defeating his opponent. Han Zhu is already locked onto Ji Nei He with his spiritual sense. Yang Tiandong asks Han Zhu why, being already in the Mahayana realm, he has not yet ascended. While locking onto Ji Nei He, Han Zhu responds, asking me to ascend. Are you in a hurry to go out and recognize a godfather again? Others are curious about how powerful the Mahayana realm really is. Han Zhu, with a casual smile, suddenly releases several bursts of spiritual power, demonstrating a

terrifying aura. What is Mahayana? Mahayana is being unparalleled, vanquishing foes with a flick of a finger. Han Zhu raises his right hand and points his middle finger towards the horizon. Mahayana is being invincible. With the Heavenly Earth Mysterious Yellow Boundary Breaking Sword finger, a slash tears through space, deeply shocking everyone present. Ji Nei He feels a sword energy appear out of nowhere behind Ji Xianzhen, piercing through space directly at him. Without time to think, Ji Nei He instinctively tries to dodge, but it's too late to block. Eyes wide, Ji Nei He is overwhelmed by the

searing sword light. In that moment, his mind goes blank, until he is engulfed by the sword energy, obliterated completely. Ji Xianzhen, just getting up to continue fighting, sees the demon emperor dissipate into dust. Carried away by the wind, his brain freezes, and turning towards the spatial rift behind him, he wonders, could it really be an immortal who intervened? It's impossible for a mortal to possess such power. It's terrifying, but why does the sword energy from that rift feel so familiar? Could it be that, aside from Loki, there is someone else in the world stronger than

him? All demon cultivators and righteous path cultivators on the ground haven't yet reacted. Only witnessing a sword energy materialize out of nowhere, tearing the heavens and piercing directly at the demon emperor. Without a deafening explosion or a world-shaking blast, when the dazzling sword energy dissipates, the demon emperor is gone. Blood demon ancestor and greedy demon Arhat's eyes widen in shock. Both dumbfounded, Ji Nei He's strength wasn't too far from theirs, and they couldn't even see how Ji Nei He was killed, indicating the attacker was far beyond them. They dare not stay any longer and immediately

flee. Before fleeing, they shout threats, claiming that by inviting an immortal to intervene, the demon palace in the upper realms will never forgive Heavenly Immortal Mansion. Ji Xianqian feels helpless. In Heavenly Immortal Mansion, there really isn't an actual immortal deity. Ji Xianqian can't think of anyone besides Loki from Jade Pure Holy Sect who could slay a Mahayana realm being with a single sword strike, unless there truly is an immortal who has descended to the mortal realm. Ji Xianqian looks towards the ground, where everyone present is still stunned into silence. It takes a while before people

realize the demon emperor is dead. The demon cultivators are thrown into chaos, with their leader dead and the two lords fled, leaving them leaderless. Meanwhile, the righteous path cultivators, upon their rescue, cheer so loudly their joy echoes through the heavens, as the light of the righteous path finally shines upon the earth again. Xishuan Fairy hadn't anticipated Han Ju could be so powerful. Xishuan notices the gesture of the heavenly puppet still pointing in the direction where the demon emperor vanished. Who else could possess such strength? The righteous path cultivators, now freed from their restraints, immediately begin

to counterattack, turning the site of the so-called welcoming demon ceremony into a hell for the demon cultivators. Su Qi and Chaotic Heavenly Dog stand frozen in place, awestruck by the sword energy that had just whisked past overhead. Like a divine sign, Su Qi exclaims excitedly, it must be the master. Chaotic Heavenly Dog is stunned, asking blankly, did the master kill the demon emperor? It must be him, always protecting me from the shadows, or I would have been long gone. Hearing this, Chaotic Heavenly Dog feels dejected. Why doesn't the master protect me? It suggests they make

a quick escape, unwilling to become Ji Xianxian Mount. At this moment, Ji Xianxian is wreaking havoc everywhere, venting his frustrations on the demon cultivators after being upstaged. On Ascetic Immoral Mountain, Han Ju retracts his power. The Fusang Tree sways in the wind. An Enlightenment Sword gazes admiringly at Han Ju's silhouette. Sun Chang'en, Yang Tiandong, and others are full of admiration. Morong Qi clenches his fists excitedly and asks, Master, what is this divine ability? Han Ju looks at him and says, Heaven and Earth mysterious yellow boundary breaking sword finger. Do you want to learn? I can

teach you. Didn't you dislike sword techniques? Seizing the opportunity, Yang Tiandong quickly chimes in, yes, you don't like sword techniques. Master, better teach me. I love it. Who said that? If Han Ju had adapted into a spear technique, it would definitely be super majestic to celebrate this victory for the righteous path. Han Ju brings out the Book of Misfortune. Qi Naihe's name is crossed out by him. Now, only Vermilion Bird and Extinction Taoist remain. This time, he decides to curse each of them for half a month, doubling their joy. Soon, the news of the demon

emperor's instant defeat spreads throughout the world, and legends of an immoral saving the moral realm circulate. Various versions of the story become popular topics in taverns, with speculation about the immorals' identity and which sect they belong to becoming the biggest topic across the land. Demon Lord's ears nearly develop calluses from listening, yet she found no clues. Just then, she receives a transmission from Blood Demon Ancestor. He has arrived. Return immediately. Shortly after, Demon Lord arrives in a dimly lit space, passing through a mist to see Blood Demon Ancestor and Greedy Demon Arha kneeling before a

shadowy figure. Demon Lord respectfully greets with Honored One, and the shadow reveals a terrifying form, coldly inquiring, Jinaya is dead, and you do not know who killed him? Demon Lord takes a deep breath and kneels. According to Blood Demon Ancestor and Greedy Demon Arha, the assailant did not show themselves. I suspect it was an immortal. It's not the first time an immortal has descended to the moral realm without notice. Subsequently, the scene falls into silence, the icy voice no longer heard. Blood Demon Ancestor and Greedy Demon Arha are so frightened they stop breathing. After a

while, the Demon Lord continues to ask, should we continue the plan for the demon race to enter the moral realm? Jinaya had already initiated the sacrificial ceremony, bringing the demon race's fortune closer to the moral realm. This matter has likely alarmed the immortal realms. If we proceed, I fear, before she could finish, the shadow snorts coldly, continue, let the Demon Master handle what comes next. The true demon is already in the moral realm, and I've instructed the Demon Master to seek out this true demon. As for you, ascend as soon as possible. With that, the

shadow dissipates in front of the three. The Demon Lord responds with an understood, but with a reluctant glance, her heart filled with unresolved feelings. At this moment, all she can think about is him. Man, we are destined to be separated by the realms of immortals and mortals. In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed since Demon Emperor Jinaya was eliminated. Hanju reached the second level of the Mahayana realm, and he brought the six paths of reincarnation technique to the ninth level of great completion. This time he did not comprehend a new divine ability,

but his cultivation speed saw a significant increase. With Hanju gone, he could absorb the essence of the sun and moon above, and draw in the nether's spiritual energy from the netherworld below. Previously, when Hanju comprehended the eighth level of the six paths of reincarnation technique, he learned the divine ability gate of reincarnation. With this gate, he could step into the netherworld and absorb souls into the six paths of reincarnation. Before, due to insufficient cultivation, he dared not rashly enter, but now that the six paths of reincarnation technique had reached great completion, he decided to go

to the netherworld to take a look. At first, he felt engulfed by dark fog, unable to see anything. Gradually, Hanju found himself in a bizarre sea of flowers, which was the legendary sea of netherworld flowers. On the shore of the flower sea were countless floating bridges, and the black water flowing beneath his feet made him even more nervous. He spread his spiritual sense, finding nothing around him, but there indeed was water under his feet. This water was very strange. His spiritual sense directly dissipated upon contact. Could this water that dissolves spiritual sense be the legendary

Stygian water? Hanju was able to sense the spatial range with spiritual sense, and with the floating bridges complex and unpredictable, Hanju lost his direction for a moment. Just then, several souls flew past Hanju, and a light appeared at the end of one of the floating bridges. Hanju decided to follow these souls to see where they were going. After walking for a while, Hanju saw a bridge enveloped in thick fog. There was a stall on the bridge with someone handing bowls of soup to the souls. The souls lined up orderly before her, took the bowls from

her hands, drank them all at once, then stepped onto the bridge and disappeared into the mist above the bridge. This startled Hanju, who immediately looked up at the sign at the head of the bridge, the Bridge of Helplessness, Soup of Oblivion. I don't want to be reincarnated just yet. Better hurry on my way. Just as Hanju turned to leave, he was frozen in place by a terrifying pressure. Thinking of turning back before the life and death reincarnation, an ancient voice sounded behind Hanju. Mengpa might be a great power of the netherworld, certainly not to be

underestimated. Hanju, facing the pressure, turned to look behind him, only to see a terrifying figure, eight feet tall, reaching towards him. Hanju immediately performed a self-explosion of the Mahayana realm to prevent the netherworld's great powers from following the gate of reincarnation to the human world. The explosion shockwave lit up the entire Bridge of Helplessness, blew away the netherworld flowers, and overturned the floating bridges. Unexpectedly, Mengpa pointed a finger, and the shockwave abruptly stopped. With another word break, the self-explosion shockwave suddenly dissipated. Mengpa chuckled, no wonder you chose to self-destruct so decisively, using the Great Return

Puppet technique. Ha, what a pity, what a pity. This lost divine technique, which had disappeared for a million years, was the only existence in the puppetry system that could contend with the Great Luo back in the day. Interesting, what's the background of this young man? With a boom, Hanju opened his eyes within the innate cave dwelling, and immediately closed the gate of reincarnation. His back was covered in cold sweat, the pressure he had just felt was too strong. It's worth noting that the Heavenly Puppet was of the Mahayana realm cultivation level, yet it was completely

suppressed by the pressure. This netherworld cannot be entered lightly, Hanju thought fearfully. If the opponent were to lock onto my true self through the Heavenly Puppet, couldn't they kill me across realms? Despite the cave dwelling being encased in ice, Hanju felt an abnormal heat rising. Enlightenment's sword ran in frantically, master, master, it's terrible, the two sons are about to fall, Hanju frowned. Could it be that the two golden crows are determined to descend to the moral realm? At this moment, some places in the moral world had become scorched earth, with cultivators from all sects joining

the firefighting efforts. Even the spiritual herbs on Ascetic Immortal Mountain could not withstand the high temperatures, and began to wither. Sun Chang'an, Yang Tiandong, and others planned to offer the fat chicken as a sacrifice to heaven, as this calamity was indeed caused by it. Hanju was well aware that if the two golden crows entered the moral realm, it would instantly turn into hell. Trouble seemed to follow one after the other, making it difficult for him to cultivate in peace. Hanju saw the sky barrier as an obstruction, they couldn't enter the moral realm. However, as the

golden crows kept striking, cracks began to appear in the sky barrier. It was unclear whether these cracks were caused by the golden crow's impacts, or if they were already present. Soon after, with a loud noise in the sky, the two golden crows truly broke through the sky barrier and entered the moral realm. The chicken was terrified, trembling with fat. Golden crows fed on phoenixes, and the pressure of their bloodline caused the chicken's mental defenses to completely collapse. The moral realm was in chaos, with many people planning to dehydrate themselves for self-preservation. At this moment, Hanju

hesitated, wondering whether to strike at the two golden crows and just kill them off. Just then, the system popped up a notification. Innate Destiny Individual Detected. Would you like to view their origin? Hanju immediately chose to view. Divine Golden Crow, 7th layer of the Mahayana realm, in a juvenile state, abandoned by the golden crow divine race due to poor talent. These little golden crows came to the moral realm, attracted by the aura of the Fusang tree, seeking to grow stronger. Due to the demonic race interfering with Heaven's Tao fortunes, the two little golden crows found

an opportunity and tried to forcibly enter the moral realm. Abandoned by the golden crow divine race, Hanju caught onto the crucial information. Since they were abandoned, killing them wouldn't offend the golden crow divine race, right? That's not necessarily true. For a divine race like that, face is extremely important. If they were to find out that their kin were killed by a mortal, how could they not be enraged? Killing them is not an option, nor is driving them away. Hanju could only charge towards the two suns. Since they're here, I might as well try that move.

Having said that, Hanju unleashed the nine dragon's demon-subduing seal, piercing through both suns with a single palm. The two young golden crows let out pitiful cries. The chicken on the ground, ready to meet its demise, suddenly noticed the temperature dropping sharply. Looking up, it saw the true fire of the suns dissipate quickly, and the sky barrier rapidly returned to its original state, as if it had never been breached. Ravensdale responded quite swiftly, and the mortal realm managed to avoid this catastrophe. Just as Hanju was about to leave, a figure rushed towards him. What happened to

those two suns? Ji Xianzhen asked curiously. Seeing Hanju, he wasn't surprised, and Hanju calmly replied, I persuaded them to leave. Ji Xianzhen scrutinized Hanju and asked intently, So, it was you who took action just now? Hanju nodded. Then, you're also the one who eliminated the demon emperor? I could clearly feel the sword energy just now. Although Ji Xianzhen was displeased internally, as he couldn't stand someone being stronger than him, if it was Hanju, he could accept it. He didn't want anyone other than Hanju to be stronger than him. Hanju immediately moved closer and covered his

mouth. This matter must not be spread. Once it gets out, my life will never return to peace. Let the title of the strongest under the heavens be yours. Ji Xianzhen was puzzled. This is a great opportunity to become famous. If you don't cultivate for fame, then what for? Hanju simply replied, I seek immortality. Hearing Hanju's answer, Ji Xianzhen fell silent. Watching Hanju turn and leave, he didn't stop him. But his gaze towards Hanju's back was complex. Such a high level of thinking, it's as high as three or four floors. Suddenly, Hanju received a system notification.

Ji Xianzhen's favorability towards you has increased, currently at three stars. Hanju shook his head with a chuckle at the prompt. Can even this increase favorability? When he returned to the base of the Fusang tree, Murong Qi was the first to ask, Ancestor, how did it go? Did you eliminate the golden crows? The presence of only one sun in the sky was enough to explain the outcome. Others looked at Hanju with admiration. Hanju said solemnly, the golden crow clan is an ancient divine race. How could they be easily killed? Murong Qi asked with confusion, then where

did they go? Hanju chuckled and shook his sleeves, from which two beams of golden light fell. The bloodline suppression once again instilled a bone-deep fear in the chicken. It's the golden crows, those two golden crows that eat phoenixes. This time, the chicken was truly terrified and hid behind the Fusang tree, daring not to show its face again. Hanju said coldly, fat chicken, you better get used to it. From now on, this Fusang tree will be guarded by you and these two golden crows together. Everyone hurriedly gathered around to observe the two golden crows, as expected

of divine beasts. They indeed look unique. Phoenixes with two legs are common, but it's not easy to find chicks with three legs. With the true fire of the suns dispersed, the two little ones huddled together, shivering and looking pitiful. The disciples wondered why Hanju decided to keep these two troublemakers instead of eliminating them to prevent future problems. Hanju explained to them, the reason the Fusang tree attracts divine beasts is because the chicken alone is not enough to secure it. Now with the two golden crows here, the Fusang tree will finally be safe. In the future,

if any of you wants to use them as mounts or something, you'll definitely be the brightest star on the street. After saying that, Hanju started to intimidate the little golden crows with a stern face. I'm giving you a chance. If you recognize me as your master, not only will I let you live, but you can also become stronger. The two little golden crows looked at each other, seemingly unconvinced and asked, do you think you can keep us? Hanju immediately released his pressure. Your descent caused havoc in the mortal realm. Where do you think you can

go now? More importantly, you've disturbed my cultivation, making me endure high temperatures for many years. Murongchi also chimed in to support. The spiritual herbs on Ascetic Immortal Mountain were scorched by you. If you seek death, being made into a small wild chicken stew with spiritual herbs might be a good option. Or perhaps even a full golden crow meal set, which could become a best-selling product of the Jade Pure Holy Sect. Being young, the two little ones were easily intimidated by the group and quickly knelt down to submit. Sun Changan expressed his concern. If other sects

find out about the golden crows being with us, could they come to the Jade Pure Holy Sect seeking compensation? Hanju instructed everyone to keep the matter of the golden crows a secret, and then imprinted the Six Paths Ultimate Seal on the little golden crows. Your sins are grievous, and you have become mortal enemies with the beings of the mortal world. From now on, without my permission, you are not allowed to leave Ascetic Immortal Mountain. I'm marking you as one of our own. And while you are here, you must respect your teachers and not harm your

fellow disciples. Hearing Hanju's warning, Chick felt its backbone stiffen. Master, Fairy Xishuan said these two little ones are divine beasts, but they don't look so strong. Hanju gave Chick a cold stare. Their cultivation is indeed average, merely at the Mahayana realm. Chick was terrified. Mahayana realm. Hanju ordered the two golden crows to guard the Fusang tree with Chick, telling them to ask the fat chicken if they had any questions. Don't judge it by its looks. It's actually a phoenix. The juicy kind of phoenix that you golden crows love to eat. The chicken was scared witless

again. Now having to live and eat with its natural enemy. Master, do you really not love Chick anymore? Sun Chan'an began introducing the layout of the Fusang tree to the small golden crows. The one with the basketball court on the first floor is the fat chicken's pigsty. You two will live in the new room above it. Get along well. Neighborhood relations are very important. Yang Tiandong said to Chick, Golden crows are of the highest bloodline among our demon clan. You should get on well with that little female golden crow. If you can marry into the

golden crow clan in the future, you'd really be transforming into a phoenix. Being lectured by everyone, Chick felt defiant inside. Just two Mahayana realm little golden crows? Aye, chicken lord. We'll step on them under my claws sooner or later. The little golden crows instantly cast friendly glances at him, feeling the suppression of their bloodlines. Chick, without needing the deities to lift a finger, instinctively started digging its own grave. Soon, there was a new tomb on Ascetic Immortal Mountain. A year later, a visitor came to Ascetic Immortal Mountain. It was Xianqin Jun who was planning to

ascend. With her wide knowledge, Xianqin Jun recognized the small golden crows at a glance. She exclaimed, living on the Fusang Divine Tree are divine golden crows. My little boyfriend's place is indeed extraordinary. Hearing someone praising the little golden crows, Chick burst out from its tomb in a rage. Who keeps going on about golden crows, golden crows. Wait till chicken lord's bloodline awakens, and I'll give you a surprise. Xianqin Jun smiled slightly. Didn't expect you little phoenix to have quite the spirit. Chick recognized Xianqin Jun at a glance, knowing naturally who the real mistress of this

mountain was. Xianqin Jun took out a demon pill. I'm about to ascend. This Mahayana Realm demon beast's inner pill is for you. You also have to work hard, little phoenix. Chick instantly understood Hanju's feelings. What man could refuse a wealthy and generous rich lady, casually giving away a Mahayana Realm demon pill, both salty and sweet? What man wouldn't like that? At that moment, Hanju also came out. What wine brought you here? Fat chicken. Aren't you going to say thank you quickly? Hanju came out with a smile, followed by a bewildered enlightenment sword. Chick was about

to thank Lady Xianqin Jun, but with a clever turn of thought and sweetly said, thank you, master's wife. Hearing this, Xianqin Jun burst into laughter, but then enlightenment sword blurted out, another lady master? Xianqin Jun's face darkened instantly. Tell me, what do you mean by another? Hanju felt a sudden tension. She's just a child. Don't listen to her nonsense. Xianqin Jun looked at Hanju with a smiling face. You've even subdued golden crows. You must be at Mahayana by now, right? Hanju nodded, sensing that her words had deeper meanings. No wonder you can keep beauties in

golden houses. With various divine items by your side, your cultivation speed is indeed fast. Hearing this, Hanju suddenly felt he had missed something. Could this woman be eyeing my fuzon tree, or is it that the spiritual energy leakage here is too severe? If this place continues to develop, it will surely be seen as a strategic location by powerful beings. At that moment, as if responding to Hanju's thoughts, the system immediately popped up a notification. You can choose a location, and the system will help create a barrier. Cultivators outside the barrier cannot detect changes inside. Hanju

had forgotten that his system had this feature and immediately asked the system to activate the barrier. Because his cultivation had increased so rapidly, the barrier underwent two evolutions and now could perfectly cover the entire Ascetic Immoral Mountain. Xianqin Jun nodded. You're not as dull as I thought. The effect of this barrier is indeed good. You'll need to be careful in the future not to expose yourself easily. Some powerful beings have already started to take notice here. It's hard to say who they are at the moment. After saying this, Xianqin Jun walked towards Hanju's cave dwelling,

indicating for Hanju to come in as she had something to say. Hanju instructed Chick and Enlightenment Sword to guard the entrance and not let anyone disturb them. Enlightenment Sword was confused, while Chick, with a smirk, told her to mind her own business. What else could the master and master's wife be doing in the cave dwelling? Once inside the cave, Xianqin Jun looked around at the treasures filling Hanju's dwelling and was quite moved. I once thought Ji Xianqin was the top prodigy under the heavens, but it turns out to be you. I indeed misjudged back then,

but it also shows my good fortune to have met you when you were not yet strong. Now that you're at such a level, my little cultivation partner, would you think of shaking me off? Hanju smiled. Of course not. After all, you have helped me a lot. If you need me in the future, I will definitely assist with all my might. Though they were cultivation partners, they were very polite to each other. Xianqin Jun turned her back and raised her right hand. I won't beat around the bush with you. I have an opportunity for you. Do

you want it? Hanju was startled. I'm already at Mahayana. Worldly opportunities are of no use to me. Could it be that you're talking about… As they were talking, Xianqin Jun underwent a stunning transformation. Yes, exactly what you were thinking. I can take you to ascend. As Xianqin Jun's ordinary appearance vanished, replaced by a seductively beautiful visage with captivating eyes and delicate features, Hanju was momentarily mesmerized. Indeed, it would be impossible for the Grand Demon Lord to look so ordinary. What do you think? Would you like to ascend with me looking like this? Hanju shook his

head. I don't want to ascend just yet. Demon Lord was puzzled. Why don't you want to ascend? You should know that our chances of survival would greatly increase if we were together. Hanju said helplessly, I have people on the higher planes. Not benefactors, but enemies. If I ascend with you, I might implicate you. It's better for me to stay in the moral realm and cultivate. Xianqin Jun thought Hanju was afraid of the owner of the Green Python Great Sage. However, Hanju told her about the Vermilion Bird, another divine beast waiting to beat him up. Xianqin

Jun frowned upon hearing this, giving Hanju a deep look. She suddenly felt that the man before her was enveloped in mystery, as if he was the world's most enigmatic puzzle. Since that's the case, let me help you one more time before ascending. Would you like to cultivate with me for half a year? Xianqin Jun leaned in close to Hanju, asking with a smile. Hanju instinctively wanted to refuse, but then he thought about the fact that Xian indeed invested a lot, having provided him with so many resources before. And besides, her appearance wasn't bad. Hanju agreed.

Alright, just go easy. Hanju imagined that the Master and the Master's Wife were to engage in half a year of interaction. Chick immediately pushed Enlightenment Sword away. The Master's Wife is going to eat the Master. Little kids shouldn't watch. Hurry up and leave. Chick then imagined the follow-up story for Hanju. In its view, after deep interaction, the Master and Master's Wife would have produced a lovechild. After a six-month pregnancy, a beautiful daughter named Han Ling would be born. The young Miss, being doted on from a young age and possessing various unique skills of mountain, would

descend the mountain alone to pacify the demons of the world. Every new year, the family would enjoy a harmonious time making dumplings together. Lost in its own storyline, Chick was brought back to reality by Yang Tiandong, reminding it that the Master had not yet settled a score with it for the Golden Crow disaster. Feeling proud, Chick had already asked Sun Chang'an to prepare a hearty barbecue feast for Hanju, believing it would surely revive his spirits. Just then, Enlightenment Sword noticed the Master's Wife and the Master emerging. Chick thought Hanju would be exhausted, but instead, Hanju

and Xianqin Jun appeared more vibrant, their cultivation seeming to have increased significantly. Chick's beliefs instantly collapsed. What about the promised young Master? Where's Han Ling? Hanju grabbed it by the feathers around its neck. Keep talking, kiddo. Let's see what else you've concocted for me. We were just discussing the Tao for half a year, and you've spun such a wild tale. Xianqin Jun smiled gently. Don't be too hard on the little phoenix. Try to get along with your disciples. After saying this, Xianqin Jun transformed into a cloud of demonic energy and ascended, telling Hanju they would

meet again in the heavens. Hanju felt a pang of regret as he watched her leave. After being wary of this woman for hundreds of years, it must be the workings of Heaven's Tao. My Taoist heart cannot be swayed by a woman. Wish you a journey as splendid as the Tapestry of Fate. Sun Chang'an, who had been diligently grilling, handed over a mutton whip and mutton testicle combo to Hanju. Ancestor, you need to replenish. Why was it so short this time? Are you not up to it? A blink of an eye, another seven years passed, and

the Nine-Cauldron Sage finally led the jade-pure holy sex demon-subduing squad back home. They had been delayed for many years after accidentally entering an ancient secret realm on their way. Hanju opened his interpersonal relationships to check his messages. Hanju frowned. Fang Liang had encountered another stroke of luck, continuing his streak of good fortune. If this keeps up, he might return as an immortal. And Ji Xianqin, why leave the mortal realm so early when he could have enjoyed being the number one under the heavens? Why ascend so soon to serve others? Hanju noticed that Mefuqiu had acquired

demonic destiny and wondered what that meant. Could it be that the demons still harbored their ambitions? Brother, you must act wisely and not cross the line. Just then, a familiar voice appeared behind Hanju. Husband, I've missed you so much. Hanju frowned. Great, didn't fall into the demon lord's hands, but still couldn't escape this. Han Elder, were you the one who killed the demon emperor? Nine-Cauldron Sage asked excitedly, barely containing his emotion. Hanju told him not to spread the word, to avoid unnecessary trouble. The Jade Pure Holy Sect was not yet invincible. Xing Hongxian looked at

him with admiration. As expected of my husband, you are now undoubtedly the top cultivator in the world. Hanju quickly demurred. You flatter me too much. There are still many powerful beings hidden in this world. We must not underestimate the people of the world. No matter. My husband is the strongest. Fairy Xixuan also showed a reflective expression, recalling the past. She never would have thought that this disciple, who once caused her so much headache, would become the foremost cultivator in the world in just a few hundred years. Hanju's status also made her realize something important. Talent

truly matters. With exceptional talent, one doesn't need to venture out into the world. The speed of cultivation growth can still be unparalleled. Without the right talent, even if one encounters numerous opportunities, catching up to the prodigies of the world remains a daunting task. Fairy Xixuan said, recently, a real demon has appeared in the world, and his name should be very familiar to you. Hanju responded indifferently. Is it Mufuchu? Do you think we should issue a kill order? If he really tarnishes the name of the Jade Pure Holy Sect. People might start to think the Jade

Pure Holy Sect is a demon path sect. Hanju asked, has Mufuchu started killing? Not yet, but rumors say he's a real demon. Then let's leave it be for now. I do have a good impression of Mufuchu, but it's just that, a good impression. If he crosses the line, I certainly won't spare him. Just then, Hanju suddenly received a system notification. Di Hongye has developed a good impression of you, currently at 3 stars. Hanju was puzzled. Who is Di Hongye? Everyone was truly astonished when they saw the two little golden crows, not expecting that the suns

capable of destroying the world were actually these two little ones. Nine Cauldron Sage gave Hanju a big thumbs up. Who would have thought that the unsolved mystery of the disappearance of the golden crows would be thanks to you? If it weren't for my position, I'd really like to swear brotherhood with you. Han Big Brother. After some pleasantries, Hanju bent down to whisper to the little golden crows. How are you two golden crow brothers settling in? I just received instructions from your mother, and from now on, if you need anything, just let me know. It turns

out Hanju had just received a system notification. Di Hongye. Cultivation level unknown. From the Golden Crow Divine Race. Once gave birth to seven golden crows for her husband. The youngest two golden crows were expelled from the Golden Crow Divine Race due to poor talents. Di Hongye. Concerned for her offspring outside. Learned that you had taken in the two little golden crows, and developed a good impression of you. If you were to kill the two little golden crows, you would earn Di Hongye's enmity, and she would not rest until dead. Current favorability is at 3 stars.

It turns out this person was the mother of the golden crows, and Hanju secretly felt relieved. Glad he hadn't killed the two little golden crows, or else he would have been doomed. This was the first time the system had encountered a terrifying existence whose cultivation level it couldn't identify. Since she had developed a good impression, it meant she didn't mind me being their master. If there's a way to help the little golden crows improve their cultivation, ascending to the higher realms in the future might mean having a powerful backer. Hanju didn't want Nine Cauldrons to

continue the pleasantries here and suggested, now that the world is at peace, why shouldn't our sect disciples take this time to go out and gain some experience? Nine Cauldrons agreed, saying he had the same intention and would now start lifting the sect's restrictions to let disciples go out and seek their fortunes. Saying this, he quickly left. With Nine Cauldrons gone, Hanju planned to continue his cultivation seriously. Even though he was already invincible in the world, he had no intention of slacking off. However, unlike before, this time he wanted those close to him to stay. Hanju

wanted Fairy Xishuan to bring Changyur over to cultivate with him for a while. The essence of my breakthrough to Mahayana is still present, which could help guide you to the next level. This invitation was truly unexpected, and Fairy Xishuan was momentarily stunned before agreeing. Xing Hongxian didn't expect Hanju to invite Fairy Xishuan first instead of her. Her cultivation progress had fallen far behind them. Comparing herself, she indeed felt more and more distant from this man. Just then, an unexpected offer came along. Hanju also invited Xing Hongxian to cultivate together, but she shook her head. Husband,

maybe I should pass. Having Fairy Xishuan and Changyur with you is enough. After all, Fairy Xishuan became a sect elder early on, naturally gifted. Changyur is also exceptional. Both seem more suitable to cultivate with you than me. I think I'll go out and see if there's a better opportunity for me. At this moment, Hanju was puzzled. Xing Hongxian would have excitedly agreed in the past. Fairy Xishuan then clarified, Miss Xing, you misunderstood. Hanju and I are not cultivation partners. Xing Hongxian said it was okay. I don't mind if my husband has other cultivation partners. It's

just that. I'm just afraid of falling behind in cultivation. My talent is much inferior to Fairy Xishuan's. Advancing to the Tribulation Crossing Realm seems almost impossible for me. Hearing Xing Hongxuan's honest words, Hanju and Fairy Xishuan were momentarily silent. Indeed, without a major opportunity, transformation would be difficult. Xing Hongxian smiled slightly. So rather than waste time on an inevitable outcome, I might as well go out and try my luck. Then I can ascend with my husband. I know you have many unique methods, and even if I can't advance to the Tribulation Crossing Realm, you could

help me be reborn with unparalleled talent. But I don't want you to see me age, nor do I want to serve you in another body through reincarnation. So I must try, for myself and for us, to fight for a long-term future. Another person clapped in agreement. It was Chang Yuer. I've witnessed my junior brother's growth, and was happy for every breakthrough he made. But with each one, I felt more powerless. My talent isn't top-notch either, and I can't keep up with junior brother even if I spent my whole life trying. So I understand your frustration.

Although Ascetic Immortal Mountain's cultivation environment is unique, it's more suited for high-level cultivators. With our talents, we're just wasting resources here. I don't want to hold my junior brother back. So, I also want to go out and find a chance to change myself. Miss Xing, do you mind if I join you? Let's see who can have the last laugh. Chang Yuer smiled at Xing Hongxian, who returned the gesture. Of course, I don't mind having a familiar face with me. With that, the two women warmly embraced each other like long-time best friends. Han Zhu shook his

head helplessly. Since you've made up your minds, then follow your hearts. But before you go, I'll need to upgrade your heavenly puppets. Spend some time with me for a while. Not long after, someone else came to the Jade Pure Holy Sect. Wherever this person went, even the most resilient soul-chasing flowers in the wild withered away. Upon seeing the Jade Pure Holy Sect's boundary marker, the person realized that the Jade Pure Sect had changed its name. Finally home. This feels so surreal. After so many years, it felt like a long dream. Another voice beside him said,

I wonder if everyone is well. But at least we're back. Master, it's me, Su Qi, your direct disciple. I've finally returned. Ever since that unfortunate step into the Jade Pure Sect, a series of misfortunes befell the sect. The biennial Flying Sword Rally was ruined when an unexpected change in terrain caused all participants to fall into the sea. No one knew these changes were brought by the King of Misfortune. For many years, even as the Green Python Great Sage led the demons to sweep across the world, bringing disaster to all living beings, even as the Demon

Emperor descended upon the world, erasing all in his path, even as the Vermilion Bird descended, setting the heavens ablaze, none of it made Han Zhu lose his composure like now, because the system detected the strongest nearby, Su Qi, at the seventh level of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Han Zhu murmured in surprise, Su Qi is back. The system didn't give any warning. It's been three to four hundred years since we last met. It makes sense for him to return home now. I didn't expect even the monster-taming Demon Sect couldn't hold him back. There's not much left

that I fear. It seems unrealistic to find such excuses to send him out again. Su Qi, finally about to meet the master he had been longing for, was about to return to Ascetic Immortal Mountain. This is the home that has given new meaning to my life. No one knows it better than I do. Doggy asked Su Qi, you once said you've been practicing ascetic cultivation on the mountain with your master since you were young and never went out. Are you sure you're familiar with the Jade Pure Sect? Su Qi replied, that's not important. Let's go

to the inner city for a tour before visiting master, to experience the worldly pleasures and eat some delicious chicken I've never had before. Unbeknownst to them, Han Ju had already approached them. Seeing Han Ju, Su Qi exclaimed, master, I've completed the mission you gave me. Thank you for your covert protection over these years. Han Ju thought awkwardly, what covert protection? That's your bad luck. I'm not carrying this pot. Han Ju said, you dare to cause trouble after the fall of the Demon Dynasty? You're quite bold. It's not that easy to enter my territory. Su Qi

was confused. Master, what are you talking about? I didn't cause any trouble. Han Ju sneered, and a nine dragons demon subduing seal hit Su Qi, knocking him unconscious. Doggy was shocked and immediately picked up Su Qi, saying to Han Ju, master, have you lost your mind? He's your disciple. Han Ju asked Doggy to keep away from Su Qi, then said, you've noticed the potential within Su Qi, and you were trying to lead him down the path of a demon cultivator, thinking I wouldn't find out. As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful demonic aura emerged

from Su Qi's body. Doggy was shocked and said, this is demonic energy? How is it inside Su Qi? I've never seen this before. A demon master floated out from Su Qi's body, laughing sinisterly. You are quite capable to have noticed my presence. Han Ju asked, fellow Taoist, why are you hiding inside my disciple's body? The demon master said, to notice my presence, you must be at least at the Mahayana realm. No wonder this kid keeps talking about you. Han Ju received a system notification. Demon Master, Mahayana Realm Level 7, Soul Fragment State, the strongest demon

cultivator in the demon path for 10,000 years. Honored as the Demon Master, bears hatred towards you because you are Su Qi's master. He will seek to kill you given the chance. Current hatred level, 4 stars. Han Ju made a sudden move, using the six path's soul absorption to try and control the Demon Master's Soul Fragment. The Demon Master angrily said, what are you trying to do? If you dare to attack my Soul Fragment, be careful, or you'll pay with your disciple's life. This kid's body has been taken over by my Soul Fragment, and if you

dare to destroy me, his spiritual sense foundation will also be destroyed. So what? Han Ju said indifferently. The Demon Master continued to threaten, my true body roams the world, and I never delay my revenge. If you dare to attack this Soul Fragment, clean your neck and wait for my true body to personally come and settle the score. Han Ju remained calm. Killing those of the demon path is the duty of us on the righteous path. However, we have no grudges or grievances. If you let go of my disciple, I will allow this Soul Fragment to

leave. How about that? The Demon Master disdainfully said, naturally. After speaking, he left Su Qi's body. Su Qi woke up, and resentment towards the Demon Master surged within him. Demon Master, when did this happen? Were you spying on me? Han Ju, satisfied with how things turned out, said to the Demon Master, you may leave. The Demon Master left grudgingly, saying farewell as he went. Han Ju saw the system notification that the Demon Master's hatred towards him had increased to five stars. Su Qi, concerned, said, Master, he wanted to take me as his disciple, but I

refused. Be careful in case he seeks revenge on you. Han Ju reassured him, don't worry. I was just playing the long game, baiting him. When his Soul Fragment returns to his main body, he'll get the same treatment as Jin Aya. Han Ju thought to himself. The surface use of the nine dragons' demon-subduing seal forced the Demon Master out. But it was a feint, leaving a trick up my sleeve. Even as a Mahayana, he couldn't detect the slightest clue. Han Ju took Su Qi and Doggy back to Ascetic Immortal Mountain. At the mountain gate, many disciples

who had heard the news came to see. And Sun Chang'an and Enlightenment Sword saw the legendary second senior brother Su Qi. Sun Chang'an exclaimed, so this is the legendary second senior brother? Quite handsome. Han Ju quickly took Su Qi into the cave dwelling for closed-door cultivation. At this time, Qi said to Doggy. It's been years since we last saw each other. How have you been doing outside? How about a little spar to see how far you've come? Doggy thought to itself, asking despite knowing. You obviously know your cultivation is above mine. A real spar would

definitely end in me getting thrashed. It's infuriating. After all these years of hard work outside, I'm still not as good as those who stayed home. Doggy began assessing others, looking for someone it could possibly bully. It thought of Yang Tiandong. Wasn't Yang Tiandong just at the nascent soul stage? He's reached spirit transformation so quickly. The master must have taught him a lot. Though his realm is lower than mine, sparring with him would likely end in my defeat, especially since the master has overcome stronger foes before. Then it looked at Sun Chang'an. This baldie's cultivation seems

similar to Yang Tiandong's, but his spiritual power seems almost infinite. It looks like he specializes in defense. I can't win a war of attrition against him. Then it saw the only female disciple, Enlightenment Sword. This lady's spiritual power is also unending, but her cultivation is only at the nascent soul realm. I could probably bully her a bit. However, knowing the master with such spiritual energy capacity, she must be favored by him. I better hold back. Finally, Doggy set its sights on a little chick in the yard, thinking, I know it's shameless, but I need a

victory now to prove the dignity of the primordial chaos great sage. This is about dignity. Golden Crow couldn't believe Doggy would choose it, actually, because it had concealed its aura and appeared no different from chick on the surface, which is why it was chosen. Me? Are you sure? Doggy pointed at the little golden crow and said, yes, you. Didn't expect it, huh? Why? The primordial chaos great sage. Don't even spare kids with scarce spiritual energy. Annoying, isn't it? I'm shameless, yes. I suppose Yang Tian Dong and the others will plead for mercy, but of course,

I'll give them a way out, effectively asserting a strong position. From now on, I'll have a say in this mountain. To Doggy's surprise, chick and the others smirked and said, go on, don't hold back. The master has been wanting to teach him a lesson for a while now. You just do as you please. Hearing this, Doggy felt a surge of anger. Little thing, don't be too arrogant. But today, I'll teach you what it means to respect your elders. Watching Doggy's doomed attempt, everyone showed the characteristic ascetic, immortal mountain expression. As Doggy was about to make

a move, it felt an intense heat approaching, followed by a blinding flash of sunlight. Before Doggy could react, it was struck down by a scorching beam from the little golden crow. Han Ju, observing through his spiritual sense from the cave dwelling, nodded in satisfaction. This dog, being away from home for so long, indeed deserves a good lesson. Su Qi, having shared hardships with Doggy for so long, couldn't bear to see him get beaten and mention the incident about Doggy being imprisoned by the demon emperor. Master, the heavenly dog didn't want to not come back. It

was imprisoned by the demon emperor. Please forgive him. Han Ju reassured him. If it had come back with Yang Tiandong earlier, none of this would have happened. Well, let's leave it at that. At this moment, Chick asked in confusion, Master, why did you place so many seals on Su Qi? Han Ju explained to Chick, Su Qi's power has been somewhat out of control due to the demon master's interference. So I patched it up. For the time being, Su Qi will stay in my cave dwelling to cultivate until he gains control over the unruly power. It's

better you guys don't invite him out for fishing or anything. Yang Tiandong and the others were envious of Su Qi getting personal guidance from the master. Junior brother, I didn't expect you to receive personal guidance from the master. It looks like the master is planning to focus on cultivating you. Su Qi responded, Senior brother, don't worry. I will cultivate diligently and not let down master's earnest efforts. Han Ju told Su Qi, from now on, you will stay in the cave dwelling and cultivate with me. Su Qi responded emotionally, that's the warmest thing I've ever heard.

Even Enlightenment Sword, who had always been in the cave dwelling, was sent out by Han Ju. Oh right, Enlightenment Sword, you should stay outside for now. Enlightenment Sword was confused, ah, Master, why? Hearing that Su Qi could receive personal instruction, Doggy felt even more sorrowful. I feel like I can't love anymore. The master doesn't even personally guide me. Chick, however, didn't think much of it. The master practices ascetic cultivation in the cave, from half a year to several decades. Can you handle that? Doggy was surprised, ah, cultivate for so long? I can't stand that. Chick

took something out. Then isn't that settled? Here, take this, and join us for the team building later. Doggy didn't understand the rules of the Ascetic Cultivation to Immortality Fishing Squad. Team building? What's that for? Yang Tiandong answered, of course, it's for fishing. I painstakingly researched eighteen techniques for fishing all night. We won't come back empty-handed today. Han Ju smiled bitterly. After encountering Su Qi, it's not up to you whether you come back empty-handed. At this moment, Han Ju received a system notification. Han Ju read it and felt that the cultivation world was much more peaceful

than before. Xian Qing Jun has ascended. Meeting her again will be uncertain. Demon Path Divine Ability? Mufuchu is walking further down the path of a true demon. Speaking of the Demon Path, I wonder if the Demon Master's soul fragment has returned to its body? At the other end of the universe, in a desolate desert swept by wind and sand, besides the mark of the Demon Master, Han Ju sensed another mark. Why is there another Six Paths Ultimate Seal here? It turns out to be Maju and them. In front of the Demon Master stood three people,

Mufuchu, Maju, and a woman in a long robe. True demon, stop struggling. Your MO family's bloodline mission is to assist our demon race in overturning the mortal realm. Once the human race is annihilated, as contributors, you all can ascend to the higher realms and become immortals. Mufuchu clenched his teeth. I have no interest in your ascension. Don't think you can make our MO family the demons that bring disaster to the human race. The Demon Master scoffed. Oh? Haven't you killed enough people? Mufuchu retorted. Those killings were not my intention. Many times. I was forced. The

Demon Master mocked further. Ha! What about your brother Zhou Fan? Do you remember how you killed him? Mufuchu's expression darkened instantly. You! Maju also fearlessly said, Demon Master, just give up. Although our MO family has demon blood, we are still essentially human. If we really help the demon race replace the human race, then we're nothing but traitors seeking glory from our ancestors. Seeing the three from the MO family unmoved, the Demon Master became a bit angry. Little girl, you're seeking death. Feeling the approach of death's oppressive force, Maju thought of Hanju again, and is only

at the Tribulation Crossing realm, and the puppet Hanju sent. Using it to fight the Demon Master is undoubtedly like throwing an egg against a rock. It seems we are about to part ways. At this moment, the woman in the long robe, the MO family head Moiling, interjected, Lord Demon Master, even the Demon Emperor never achieved such a feat. Let alone our MO family alone. Moiling continued, May I ask, has the demon race sent any powerful reinforcements? The Demon Master arrogantly replied, Why need reinforcements? I myself will assist the MO family. Unable to hold back, Moiling

asked, Are you saying you are stronger than the deceased Demon Emperor? The Demon Master disdainfully said, Demon Emperor, how can he compare to me? The reason I didn't act earlier was merely to use him to test the strength of the righteous path, allowing him to reveal all his cards. As for me, in order not to be rejected by Heaven's Tao, I've deliberately suppressed my cultivation level, but I'm actually close to the 9th level of the Mahayana realm. Hearing this, Hanju snorted coldly, the demon race really harbors evil intentions, daring to plot against our human race

with just a Mahayana realm, simply seeking death. This is a good opportunity to teach Moiling a lesson, to prevent further troubles later. With that, Hanju raised his right hand, his middle finger pointing towards the horizon, Heaven and Earth mysterious yellow boundary breaking sword finger, aren't you the type who doesn't seek revenge overnight? If I want to, I can do the same. In an instant, a terrifying pressure surged, startling the Demon Master into an instinctive attempt to look back, only to feel a sword light shining on the back of his head. The Demon Master had no

time to react, catching a glimpse of a sword energy shot towards him, followed by the sound of a godlike chant from a crack in the space above his head. With a booming sound, the sword energy swept across, engulfing the Demon Master's form. The Demon Master was completely annihilated, both in body and spirit.
