"Sigh!"

Gao Fei lightly sighed, "Treasures may be great, but they attract trouble! It's really...depressing."

In Gao Fei's mind hovered two treasures, one was the Minor Thunderclap Monastery, and the other was the Demon Sky Tower, the former a treasure of the Buddhist Sect, and the latter a treasure of the Demon Clan, one of righteousness and the other of evil, mutually restraining each other.

The Minor Thunderclap Monastery contained a heaven-defying spell named "Immortal Buddha Finger", which upon successful cultivation, could instantly boost one's strength tenfold.

Inside the Demon Sky Tower, there was also a heaven-defying spell named "Heavenly Demon Ten Transformations", which, once successfully cultivated, could also increase one's strength tenfold.

Compared to the two, Heavenly Demon Ten Transformations was somewhat easier to cultivate. Until now, Gao Fei had mastered up to the sixth transformation, which, when deployed, increased his strength sixfold.

As for Immortal Buddha Finger, Gao Fei had pondered it for a very long time but still hadn't mastered it completely.

"Sigh!"

Gao Fei sighed again, "Immortal Buddha Finger, oh, Immortal Buddha Finger, why are you so difficult? Can you not let me witness your power?"

After a moment of contemplation, Gao Fei continued to organize his treasures.

Initially, Gao Fei had obtained thirty-six Black Spheres that could explode and release massive energy, helping him through many crises, but sadly, they were all used up.

Some time ago, Gao Fei had also come across a Dragon Corpse, which he intended to use to craft a Spiritual Treasure, but in the end, it was snatched away by Emperor Dugu Jingtian, a matter that greatly infuriated Gao Fei.

Right, trapped inside the Bronze Coffin was a significant figure, someone descended from the Immortal Realm, to be precise, an avatar of a Great Immortal named Ximen Lie. By sheer coincidence, Gao Fei had captured him and held him until now, learning many secrets of the Immortal Realm from Ximen Lie.

"The path to Ascension to the Immortal Realm has been severed, and reaching the Transcendance Tribulation Stage is already the limit; ascending through tribulation is impossible," Gao Fei muttered to himself. "The only way is to forge a new pathway, but the key issue is, how difficult is it to forge a passage to the Immortal Realm? It might even provoke the Immortal Realm's punishment!"

"Fortunately, there's still plenty of time, I can find a solution slowly."

"There will always be a way where there's a will! Maybe by the time I advance to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, the pathway to the Immortal Realm will have reopened?"

Gao Fei knew this was a wishful thought, an almost impossible hope.

Since the Immortal Realm had closed the path, it wouldn't reopen it.

"Take it slow! I'll figure out a way eventually!" Gao Fei silently made up his mind, determined to open the passageway at any cost and then enter the Immortal Realm to Cultivate Immortality.

What do Cultivators pursue? Of course, it's Longevity! Only by entering the Immortal Realm can one fulfill the wish for Longevity! If unable to enter the Immortal Realm, one can only wait for death! The longer people live, the more they fear death, and many Cultivators, when faced with death, will go mad or lose their reason and do something extreme.

Gao Fei also feared death, and he dreamed of immortality! He was willing to pay a great price for the pursuit of Longevity!

From a poor boy with nothing to his name, to where he stood today, it hadn't been easy!

Gao Fei always believed in one saying: As long as you're willing to give, there will be gains! The more you give, the more you receive! The only difference is, the input and the output do not always correlate proportionally!

...

After organizing his treasures, Gao Fei began to delve into the comprehension of Immortal Buddha Finger.

From beginning to end, Gao Fei never gave up delving into it, because he knew how powerful Immortal Buddha Finger was. If he could fully comprehend it, it would undoubtedly bring him a great boost.

In his heart, the status of Immortal Buddha Finger was just a bit above Heavenly Demon Ten Transformations, because Immortal Buddha Finger represented righteousness, and since ancient times, it has been righteousness that suppresses evil! This is an eternal truth that will never change, even after millions of years!

Gao Fei closed his eyes, concentrated, and contemplated the incantation of the Immortal Buddha Finger.

"To practice this skill, one must first become a Buddha!"

"Taking the literal meaning, to cultivate the Immortal Buddha Finger, one must first become a Buddha, only after becoming a Buddha can one cultivate the Immortal Buddha Finger."

"How can one become a Buddha? Does it mean... one must join the Buddhist Sect and become a monk to cultivate the Immortal Buddha Finger?"

"I definitely can't become a monk, I am still very enchanted by the secular world."

"Couldn't the creator of the Immortal Buddha Finger have written it more clearly? With such an ambiguous statement, how am I supposed to understand it?"

"The same sentence can be interpreted differently by different people, so whose interpretation should I listen to?"

"My head hurts, it really hurts."

Gao Fei raised his hand and rubbed his swollen temples.

At this moment, daylight broke, and a gentle beam of sunlight shone through the window onto Gao Fei's body.

"Huh! Is it daylight already?" Gao Fei looked out of the window and then let out a slight sigh, "Time flies so fast." He got out of bed, stretched his arms wide with a big yawn, and then opened the door and walked out.

"Sir," Chen San and Liu Qing were already waiting outside early, "what are we doing today?"

"First," Gao Fei held up a finger, "post notices throughout the city lifting the curfew, allowing the people to go out at night. Additionally, announce another piece of news: the newly appointed City Lord will dedicate half a day every day to resolving various disputes and cases. Those who feel wronged or aggrieved can come to lodge a complaint. As long as their cases are verified, I will certainly stand up for them."

"Alrighty," Chen San and Liu Qing nodded.

"Second," Gao Fei held up another finger, "in my name, send out invitations to the military officers of all ranks. Tonight I will host a banquet at the City Lord's Mansion and ask them to attend."

"What if they don't come?" asked Chen San.

"Those who attend the banquet are my friends, those who don't are my enemies," said Gao Fei indifferently.

"Ah, got it," Chen San and Liu Qing nodded, "we will definitely convey your words!"

"Third, hire a few people from outside to take care of the City Lord's Mansion," Gao Fei continued, "It's too quiet inside the vast City Lord's Mansion with just the three of us. Once we get busy, we won't have time to clean the mansion. For safety's sake, it would be better to hire a few people."

"Hire a few?"

"Just handle it as you see fit! Remember, you must hire those who are loyal and honest."

"Does the Sir have any other orders?"

"No, that's all. You can go now."

"Alright then, off we go." Chen San and Liu Qing turned and strode away.

Gao Fei didn't idle either; he washed up briefly, then left the City Lord's Mansion with hands clasped behind his back. Outside, the sun shone brightly, a gentle breeze caressed his face, shops that had closed the previous night were now open, and the number of pedestrians on the streets gradually increased. The sounds of hawkers and vendors calling out their wares were incessant. Occasionally, patrolling soldiers could be spotted, strutting arrogantly, barging as they walked. Pedestrians hurriedly moved out of their way, not daring to provoke these soldiers.

"Everyone behave yourselves! Anyone who dares cause trouble will be killed on the spot!" the soldiers shouted loudly as they marched.

"Bang!"

An old man walking unsteadily stumbled and bumped into a soldier, then fell to the ground, crying out in pain.
