Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

Even though Emperor Ziwei's words were light and casual, as if he had done a trivial task,

Gu Qingfeng understood what kind of turbulent waves and profound support lay behind that understated sentence.

He personally went to the Immortal Divine Country!

These few words carry a weight as heavy as a Star Domain.

A slight carelessness could ignite immortal flames of war across the heavens and myriad realms, dragging countless beings into it.

Gu Qingfeng truly did not expect that this figure would risk danger for a junior who has yet to step into immortality, marching straight into peril.

An immortal confrontation!

This is an event sufficient to be recorded in the annals of the universe, affecting the layout for millions of eras to come.

Far beyond ordinary conflict.

Gu Qingfeng's expression was complex. He deeply bowed to Emperor Ziwei, performing a solemn ceremony with an unprecedented seriousness in his voice:

"The grace bestowed by the Heavenly Emperor today is akin to rebirth. This junior... will never forget it!"

"No need for such formalities."

Emperor Ziwei's apparition seemed to perceive his thoughts, his voice still calm yet carried a power that soothed the heart.

"You are a prodigy of our Human Clan. How can we allow the Evil God Clan to act unscrupulously with impunity?

Even though the Human Clan no longer dwells in its peak era, beset by internal and external troubles, it will not suffer humiliation from other clans!"

With that, Emperor Ziwei waved his hand, indicating that he need not dwell on it.

Then, the calm expression on his face turned cold. In his eyes flickered a dreadful scene of billions of stars collapsing and cosmic reincarnation, emanating an invisible authority naturally.

"Hmph, the timing has not yet fully matured; the Tribulation of Transcendence is like a sword hanging overhead!"

His tone briefly halted, and a bone-chilling, primordial killing intent suddenly appeared. Though it was just a hint, it instantly froze the void space for billions of miles into frost, even solidifying the drifting fragments of Laws and chaotic space currents.

"Otherwise, I would have at least severed a couple of immortal heads, letting the Evil God Clan know that the Human Clan is not to be trifled with!"

At that moment.

Upon Emperor Ziwei, Gu Qingfeng seemed to see an endless sea of blood and mountains of corpses, ancient gods and demons wailing and falling.

This overwhelmingly real killing intent far surpassed anything he had ever seen.

Instilling fear in someone who presides over the Netherworld and is accustomed to life and death, causing a chill in his heart and Divine Soul to flicker.

This was not a mere threat, but a true killing will bred from countless massacres and slaughtered enemies!

However,

This murderous intent appeared quickly and dissipated just as swiftly.

As if it was just a momentary displeasure revealed unintentionally by a monarch, it was immediately withdrawn.

In less than a moment, the cold that froze the void dissipated without a trace, restoring billions of miles of space to normal, as if the suffocating feeling had never occurred.

"Alright, let's not mention old matters."

Emperor Ziwei's expression returned to calm, as if the previous terrifying killing intent was just an illusion.

"These five Nine-orifice Exquisite Fruits are yours, they should benefit your cultivation.

There is no need to say too much—you just need to remember, in this universe, do whatever you wish, and follow the Dao in your heart.

The immortals of the Evil God Clan will no longer intervene after I set foot in the Divine Country."

His gaze seemed to penetrate layers of space, seeing the colossal Divine Country hidden in the universe's dark side, his tone carrying absolute confidence and a subtle trace of melancholy.

"After all, as long as I live, they dare not act recklessly. For the next thirty billion years, as long as you do not actively engage in immortal-level conflicts, you are safe."

Emperor Ziwei smiled faintly, and as his last word fell, his form wavered like a bubble in water, turning from real to ethereal, and finally vanished completely.

Leaving no trace behind, as if he had never arrived.

Gu Qingfeng stood in place, his gaze fixed on the empty void in front of him, remaining silent for a long while.

In the air, it seemed there was still a trace of that supreme Emperor Mighty, and the overwhelming Dao Rhythm exuded by those five Nine-orifice Exquisite Fruits, looming and enticing.

"The favor accrued this time is truly immense!"

He let out a long sigh, his voice carrying a hint of helplessness, yet more so with a tremendous pressure.

Originally, the Life-saving Jade Talisman given by Emperor Ziwei, containing his full strike, allowed him to barely survive the assassination of the Void Aspect Divine Master, already making him owe an enormous favor.

And this time, Emperor Ziwei personally ventured into the Immortal Divine Country for his sake, despite speaking of it lightly, as if just going for a chat.

But Gu Qingfeng understood that a certain level of confrontation and contest must have occurred between the parties.

Otherwise,

Given the forcefulness and greed of the Evil God Clan, how would they willingly give up five Nine-orifice Exquisite Fruits as compensation?

Behind this, Emperor Ziwei must have forced his opponent into submission with absolute strength, at the very least making them apprehensive and leading to this compromise.

As a result,

The favor owed grew even larger.

"Enough, what's owed is owed, thinking too much is futile."

Gu Qingfeng shook his head, temporarily suppressing the tumultuous thoughts.

"Debts, once many, don't weigh you down. This kindness can only be noted for now, striving to enhance strength, and repay it when I possess enough power. Whether for the Human Clan or for him..."

His gaze became firm again, then turned to the five supreme Immortal Elixirs before him, exuding a nine-colored radiance.
