Left to her own device, Chun Xu pondered Zi Yao's words. All along, the Sword Fairy didn't doubt that somewhere in the White Immortal sect or beyond, her master hid corpses and secrets that could overnight bring a coalition of righteous zealots to the White Immortal sect's gates. Zi Yao was a genius, in the purest sense of the term. Even in Qi Refinement, her scholarly and alchemical achievements had left her seniors slack-jawed, making several lower themselves to discuss results and experiments with…-

While the avatar that Hengye Yuemi dispatched to probe Qingxin returned to the Night, unbeknown to all, another one hovered above the White Immortal sect. Just like with the five Hengye elders, the lack of identification token triggered none of the sect's defenses, and even as the avatar's Spiritual Sense swept through the sect, none noticed her presence. "It started here," Yuemi said, vanished, and reappeared in the Tower of Harmonious Bliss' top dual cultivation room. It was here that, Xinzi and Chun…

"Mhm…you've grown taller." While still holding onto Xinzi, Dong Ling raised her eyes, trying to meet her monk's gaze. But if before she barely needed to lift her chin, she now had to bend her head back as far as her neck enabled her to. Alarmed by the change, the snakegirl furrowed her brows, wondering what had prompted such an absurd leap in height. "Oh?" Xinzi, who had not noticed the difference, put one hand on his head and the other on Dong Ling's. The distance between the two made the monk's…

Throughout the Five Continents, one would be hard-pressed to find worse offense than demonic collusion. No matter how bold, the Yan clan dared not bear this crime. Unfortunately for them, Xinzi needed three things: Scapegoats to make the demon's Yanzhou presence as understandable as possible. A distraction that'd collect the attention of the Demon Slaying hall. And if possible, an opportunity to harvest massive benefits. Demons collecting souls and Evil Qi was just the norm. But without the…

The Fen clan master's head tumbled down, and as all citizens followed its fall, silence settled on the scene. For thousands of years, the overbearing Fen clan held Burning Spear supercity in awe, propping up the racial bias and classist laws that made this supercity into a house of disgrace for non-Spirit scions. Still, the Fen never failed in their martial duties, taking pride in standing at the frontlines of all the city's conflicts. For their status and contributions, they commanded tremendous respect,…

Xinzi's move took the city guard by surprise. True, so far, all the momentum gathered around the demon—yet Burning Spear supercity's experts didn't expect it to target their commandant right off the bat. After all, most of the energies binding the city guards together, passed by their commandant—enabling him to tap into their cultivation bases to bring his own strength to superior levels. A lion's face took shape on Xinzi's chest. Its head protruded from our monk's armored skin, sticking towards the…

"All hail the king!" Blitzing through the sky, the Armored Lion King arched his head back, laughing heartily. From the moment that he'd received the Devil Orb's foul blessings, the Lion King felt that nothing under the heavens could resist a casual paw of his. Several beast ranks still existed above rank seven, and yet this feeling of invincibility filled the lion with such overwhelming confidence that he dared to face any expert of the Great Desolation world. Even without Xinzi's orders to guide his…

"A'Xin, you're breaking my heart. As a grown man, how can have such a hard time entertaining a woman? I thought I'd trained you better." Though her words followed a mellow tone, Yuemi's eyes hid no less hatred than Qingxin's did at first—no, it was worst. And while the monk's hatred lessened, Yuemi's skyrocketed. "What do you want?" Qingxin didn't beat around the bush, but faced with these words, Yuemi shrugged, and behind the dark veil, her lips curled up. "Does a wife need a reason to visit her…

The five immortal elders' appearance didn't alert the White Immortal sect's leadership. But their mere presence produced mystical changes that put the sect on its toes. Throughout sect territory and beyond, the Qi Density in the atmosphere intensified. Spiritual flowers bloomed, the Dao resonated with myriad lives, prompting breakthroughs and enlightenment opportunities for all that stood in the vicinity of the Liberation Temple. The closer they were to Xinzi's temple, the more intense the phenomenon…

"Greatest One." It had been 12 years since Xinzi heard that form of address. In that time frame, there were moments where our monk forgot his exalted identity, and others where even his divine background faded in the shadows of his mind. But as soon as the five immortals gave their greetings, the memories that Xinzi kept buried sprang back to the surface—bringing alongside them no end of grief. His heart turned cold. The flickering mortal emotions vanished, replaced by the austere dignity of an…
