Upon hearing the words "Immortal Realm," hope was rekindled in the eyes of the other sect leaders.
yes.
They all have some connection to the immortal realm, more or less.
No matter how strong Feng Baiyu is, does he dare to defy the heavens?
"The Immortal Realm?"
Zhao Feng laughed, "Trying to use the Immortal Realm to intimidate me?"
His laughter stopped abruptly, and he glared menacingly at Tai Huntian, "Are you worthy?"
Before he could finish speaking...
His men had already disappeared from the spot.
Tai Huntian felt a blur before his eyes, and an indescribable, terrifying pressure rushed towards him, almost stopping his thoughts altogether.
He didn't even see Zhao Feng's movements clearly.
A fist rapidly enlarged in his pupils.
"boom!"
A loud bang.
This punch tore through space and shattered time, striking Taihuntian heavily.
The protective armor on Taihuntian's body failed to emit even a glimmer of light before it, along with his chest, began to cave inwards violently.
Then.
It exploded with a deafening roar!
Countless fragments of magical artifacts, mixed with flesh and bones, shot out in all directions.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The walls of the main hall were riddled with deep, bottomless holes.
Tai Hun Tian was sent flying like a tattered sack, crashing through the layers of palaces of the Feathered Heaven Palace, turning into a streak of blood and disappearing into the horizon.
Zhao Feng's figure reappeared on the throne, as if he had never left.
He withdrew his fist and dusted off non-existent dust from his sleeve.
"Let's talk about it when the immortals descend to the mortal realm."
His indifferent voice echoed in the hall.
The remaining seven sect leaders were dumbfounded.
As they stared at the hole that had been smashed through the main hall and felt the lingering aura of destruction in the air, their very souls trembled.
One punch!
Just one punch!
Tai Hun Tian, whose cultivation had reached the peak of the Realm King, was beaten to the point of being unable to tell whether he was alive or dead!
Just what kind of monster is this Feng Baiyu?!
If we say...
The previous suppression of Wan Yushu demonstrated Zhao Feng's absolute control over the laws.
That punch that shattered Taihuntian was the purest and most primal form of violence!
Faced with such power, any conspiracy, trickery, background, or backing seems so pale and powerless.
Linglong Immortal Venerable slowly closed her eyes.
When it opened its eyes again, all the struggle and resentment had turned into a calm.
She stood up and bowed deeply to Zhao Feng on the throne.
"Linglong Blessed Land, we are willing to obey the Alliance Leader's command."
Her voice broke the deathly silence in the hall.
"The Star Gate is willing to obey the Alliance Leader's orders."
"The Dan Ding Sect is willing to obey the Alliance Leader's orders."
"Tongtian Sword Sect..."
One by one, the leaders of the immortal sects, and the powerful figures who could shake the region with a stomp of their feet, all lowered their proud heads and chose to submit.
Circumstances are beyond our control.
In the face of absolute power, dignity is worthless.
Zhao Feng was not surprised by this.
He sat upright on his throne, looking down at the submissive crowd below, his voice authoritative.
"very good."
"From this day forward, the Xuanhuang Immortal Alliance is established."
"Rest assured, I am only here to fight against demons and even the gods. I will not interfere in your internal affairs at other times."
Zhao Feng's words put everyone at ease.
But the next moment.
Zhao Feng's actions, however, made their hearts jump into their throats again, just as they had just relaxed.
He casually reached out and grabbed at the void outside the Feathered Heaven Palace.
Boom!
A gigantic hand, formed from celestial light, blotted out the sky and reached deep into the void.
A moment later.
The giant hand retracted, grasping a blood-soaked, barely breathing body that was almost unrecognizable.
It was Tai Huntian, who had just been knocked away.
The leader of the Taiyi Sect was now completely devoid of his previous arrogance, replaced only by boundless fear.
"Feng Baiyu...you...you will die a horrible death!"
Knowing he was doomed, he used his last ounce of strength to utter a venomous curse.
Zhao Fengmian remained expressionless and slapped him across the face with his backhand.
Bang!
Tai Huntian's body, along with his primordial spirit, was completely shattered into the purest fragments of primordial energy and laws by this slap.
It was a dazzling ball of light.
It contains all the cultivation and understanding of the Great Dao of a peak Realm King.
"Noisy".
Zhao Feng flicked his finger, and the ball of light flew into the center of the hall.
He opened his mouth and spat out a ball of chaotic flame that appeared out of thin air and enveloped the sphere of light.
Within the flames, laws intertwined, and divine chains danced.
In just a few breaths.
The flames died down.
A long banner, entirely black and exuding an aura of immortality and destructive energy, floated silently in mid-air.
Top-grade Dao artifact!
Inside the main hall, all the sect leaders were dumbfounded.
He grabbed a World King-level expert with his bare hands, turned him into raw material, and refined him into a top-grade Dao artifact in the blink of an eye!
What an incredible and profound method this is!
The exquisite body of the Immortal Venerable Linglong was trembling slightly.
She considered herself well-informed, but what she saw before her completely overturned her understanding.
Killing Taihuntian is a major incident that has already caused a huge uproar.
But Feng Baiyu not only killed it, he also refined it into a magic weapon!
This Feng Baiyu is simply unrestrained!
After the initial shock came heartfelt submission.
Perhaps only such domineering and lawless powerhouses have the qualifications and the ability to truly unify the immortal sects and integrate the power of the entire Xuanhuang Great World!
The remaining seven sect leaders, looking at the long black banner forged by Taihuntian, were all silent and trembling, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Zhao Feng casually tossed the long banner to Ruyi Zi, an elder of the Yuhua Sect who was standing to the side and was also quite frightened. "You have made a contribution to teaching Tiandu and cultivating talents for my Yuhua Sect. This treasure is hereby bestowed upon you for protection."
Ruyizi caught it in a flurry of activity.
He felt that the magical artifact in his hand was burning hot.
However, he was reluctant to give up the top-grade Dao artifact.
Zhao Feng's gaze then returned to the other sect leaders.
The power and prestige have been established enough.
Next, it's time to bestow "favors".
"Gentlemen."
Zhao Feng's voice rang out again, "But a great calamity is imminent, and the gods are eyeing us. If my Xuanhuang Great World remains a disorganized mess, its destruction is only a matter of time."
"To show our sincerity and to enhance the strength of the Immortal Alliance as soon as possible, I have decided to open an ancient treasure vault, and all the resources within will be shared by our eight factions."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked once again.
Linglong Immortal Venerable was the first to react, and asked in a trembling voice, "Sect Leader Feng...which treasure vault are you referring to?"
A treasure trove that would be taken so seriously by a true immortal and willing to share it could not possibly be an ordinary secret realm.
Zhao Feng smiled slightly and uttered four words.
"The Treasure Trove of the Underworld".
boom!
These four words seemed to possess boundless magic, causing the minds of all the sect leaders present to buzz.
The Treasure Trove of the Underworld!
That is the legacy left behind by the ancient demonic emperor, the Yellow Springs Emperor!
Legend has it that the Yellow Springs Emperor once attempted to establish reincarnation, which angered the celestial realm, and he was killed by several celestial kings working together.
All the wealth he amassed throughout his life, the magical artifacts he crafted, and the "Great Reincarnation Technique," one of the Three Thousand Great Daos that could control the cycle of life and death, were sealed away in the Yellow Springs Treasury!
Its value is by no means inferior to that of the Heavenly Martial Treasury.
This is the ultimate opportunity that all cultivators in the Xuanhuang Great World dream of!
The leader of the Dan Ding Sect was so excited that his beard trembled. "Alliance Leader Feng... is this true?"
"The location of the Yellow Springs Treasure Vault has long since vanished into the annals of history. Moreover, to open the vault, one must possess the Yellow Springs Emperor's natal magic weapon, the 'Dragon Subduing in the Yellow Springs Diagram,' as the key..."
The leader of the Star Gate also raised questions.
It wasn't that they didn't believe it, but rather that the news was so shocking that they couldn't believe it.
Zhao Feng smiled calmly.
"I have already calculated the location of the treasure vault."
"As for the key..."
His gaze seemed to pierce through layers of palaces, landing on the area where the outer disciples of the Feathered Ascension Sect were located. "The 'Dragon Subduing in the Yellow Springs Map' is now in the hands of one of my Feathered Ascension Sect disciples."
Another bombshell!
The sect leaders present were completely stunned.
They feel that their understanding over the past tens of thousands of years has been completely overturned again and again today.
Feng Baiyu is not only incredibly skilled in cultivation, but also possesses profound and far-reaching cunning.
When did he find out that the "Dragon Subduing in the Yellow Springs" painting was in the Feathered Ascension Sect?
Did he plan everything in advance by convening the Immortal Cultivation Conference and establishing the Immortal Alliance?
"Hahaha! Our leader's divine might is unparalleled, we are completely convinced!"
The elders of Wan Gui Immortal Island stepped forward with beaming smiles, expressing their loyalty to Zhao Feng: "It is our honor to follow the Alliance Leader! Wan Gui Immortal Island is willing to go through fire and water for the Immortal Alliance!"
With the immense allure of the Yellow Springs Treasury, all previous unhappiness and fear seemed to vanish.
"Our Dan Ding Sect is willing to refine pills for the Alliance Leader, even at the cost of our lives!"
"Our Tongtian Sword Sect is willing to slay all enemies for our Alliance Leader!"
In a short time.
Inside the main hall, the atmosphere was extremely lively.
The sect leaders who were just moments ago at loggerheads have now become Zhao Feng's most loyal supporters.
Zhao Feng nodded in satisfaction.
This is exactly the effect he wanted.
The carrot and stick approach is always the best way to win people's hearts.
"very good."
Zhao Feng stood up.
"In that case, everyone should return to their respective sects, gather their disciples, and select the elite. Three days later, assemble before the Feathered Heaven Palace to journey together to the Nine Netherworlds and open the treasure vault!"
"Yes! We will obey the Alliance Leader's decree!"
The seven sect leaders bowed in unison to accept the order, and then left the Feathered Heaven Palace in high spirits.
They needed to return to their sect as quickly as possible to share this incredible good news with their disciples and select the most elite members to try and grab as much benefit as possible during the grand feast of dividing up the Yellow Springs Treasure Vault.
Only after watching their departing figures did a smile appear on Zhao Feng's face.
He would naturally open the Yellow Springs Treasury.
He didn't care about these things at all; what he valued from beginning to end was only the origin of the world.
As long as he can strike at Fang Han, he'll profit no matter what he does.
Moreover...
As the leader of the alliance, how could I not reap the benefits?
With a thought, a decree flew out from the hall and hovered above the Feathered Gate.
...
The entire Yuhua Sect was already buzzing with discussion because of the uproar surrounding the Immortal Dao Conference.
When the nine dazzling streaks of light symbolizing the ten gates of immortality were reduced to only eight, and each one seemed to be in a hurry, even with a hint of excitement, as it departed, everyone realized that the格局 (geju, a concept encompassing the overall situation, circumstances, and overall dynamics) of the Xuanhuang Great World was about to change drastically.
On Tiandu Peak.
Hua Tiandu stood in front of the palace, gazing towards the direction of the main peak, his heart filled with joy.
That wretched boy Fang Han won't be able to keep up this for long.
The Supreme Master has now returned in force, and with his first move, he intends to integrate the ten sects of the Immortal Path. With such great talent and ambition, how could he tolerate the existence of a disciple who carries the legacy of the Demonic Path?
All the humiliation I suffered before will soon be repaid a hundredfold or a thousandfold!
Just as he was envisioning the future, a golden decree appeared out of thin air.
It is the decree of the supreme leader!
Hua Tiandu felt a chill run down his spine and immediately bowed deeply.
The imperial edict was slowly unfurled, and its majestic and grand voice resounded throughout the entire Tiandu Peak, even reaching every corner of the Yuhua Sect.
"Fang Han, a disciple of the Feathered Ascension Sect, fought bravely against the enemy in the battlefield of the Heavenly Demons, displaying the divine might of our immortal path and making outstanding contributions."
"From this day forward, Fang Han is promoted to a true disciple and is granted a set of true disciple robes, cave dwelling, and magic weapon."
"Furthermore, I hereby bestow upon him one 'Yin-Yang Longevity Pill' to aid his breakthrough and extend his lifespan by ten thousand years!"
Hua Tiandu was shocked and suddenly raised his head, his face full of disbelief.
What?
Should Fang Han, that wretched child, be promoted to a true disciple?
He even bestowed upon me the Yin-Yang Longevity Pill?
That's a supreme elixir that can directly increase one's lifespan by ten thousand years!
There are only a handful of these treasures in the entire Yuhua Sect's treasury. Each one is extremely precious and is only available to the Supreme Elders who have made earth-shattering contributions to the sect!
Now, they're actually going to bestow it upon Fang Han?
Why should I?!
Hua Tiandu's face instantly turned ashen, and his fists clenched tightly.
He couldn't understand it!
Why would the Supreme Master reward Fang Han so handsomely when he clearly knew that Fang Han was the successor of the Yellow Spring Emperor?
This doesn't make sense!
at the same time.
The entire Feathered Ascension Sect was thrown into complete chaos by this decree.
Countless outer disciples, inner disciples, and even true disciples poured out of their caves, discussing the matter animatedly.
"Fang Han? Which Fang Han? Is it the Fang Han who offended Senior Brother Hua Tiandu not long after he started his training?"
"Who else could it be but him! My God, what did he do? He actually managed to get the Sect Master to personally issue a decree, directly elevating him from an outer disciple to a true disciple!"
"The Yin-Yang Longevity Pill! That grants ten thousand years of lifespan! If I could obtain one, I could immediately attempt to achieve immortality!"
Jealousy, envy, confusion, resentment...
Almost everyone's eyes were focused on the outer disciples' area.
now.
The owner of the courtyard, Fang Han, was sitting cross-legged on the bed, silently circulating his cultivation technique to repair the hidden injuries left on the battlefield of the Heavenly Demon.
His face still showed lingering fear.
The eruption of the Great Chaos Thunder Sword's spirit saved his life, but it also made him doubt his future path.
Relying on external resources is ultimately not a long-term solution.
Just then.
Boom!
The courtyard gate was pushed open from the outside.
A dignified elder, clad in a golden robe, strode in, surrounded by a group of disciples. (End of Chapter)
