Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

A sinister magical artifact specifically designed to corrode the realm of a world lord and lock away the primordial blood.

Gu Tianfeng was panting heavily.

With each breath, dark red blood mixed with fragments of internal organs would be expelled.

But he didn't look at the arrogant and powerful enemy sect members in the sky.

His bloodshot eyes were fixed on a young man standing not far in front of him.

That was his eldest disciple.

Chu He, the chief holy son of the Desolate Martial God Temple.

Why?

Gu Tianfeng's voice was hoarse, like sandpaper being rubbed, revealing an unconcealable sorrow and disbelief.

"I have raised you for three thousand years."

"Use all the resources of the temple to push you all the way to the realm of Domain Lord."

"Why...why did you betray the temple?!"

The sect's protective formation was broken from the inside.

The one who broke the formation was none other than this ungrateful wretch whom he regarded as his own son and groomed to be the next sect leader!

Chu He was dressed in a spotless white robe.

It stood out starkly against the backdrop of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

He looked at Gu Tianfeng with a calm expression, even a hint of indifference as if it were perfectly natural.

"Master, you've grown old."

Chu He's voice was steady, without the slightest hint of remorse.

"The temple has become too conservative under your leadership."

"We are guarding the largest secret realm in the Eastern Wilderness, yet you have set a strict rule that forbids any disciple from stepping into it even half a step."

"Three thousand years."

A long-suppressed greed and resentment flashed in Chu He's eyes.

"I've been stuck at the Domain Lord realm for a full five hundred years!"

"If I could just enter the secret realm and obtain those resources, I would have been a realm lord long ago!"

"But you won't allow it."

Chu He shook his head slightly, his tone tinged with sarcasm.

"The Valley Master of Sirius Valley promised me."

"As long as the temple is destroyed, he will not only make me the deputy valley master of Sirius Valley, but also open all their resource vaults to me."

"Master, a wise bird chooses its tree to perch on."

"In this Origin God Realm, strength is the only truth."

Upon hearing these words...

Gu Tianfeng was so angry that he laughed instead.

The laughter was tinged with endless desolation and bitterness.

"What a wise bird chooses its tree to perch on..."

"What a powerful statement: strength is the only true measure of success!"

He looked at Chu He, and the last trace of warmth in his eyes was completely extinguished.

All that remains is endless regret.

He was blind to his own good, raising a venomous snake that would devour its master!

"Alright, Chuhe, you may leave."

In the sky.

A majestic yet icy voice suddenly descended.

Two terrifying figures, exuding the aura of a peak World Lord, slowly descended from the warship.

Sirius Valley Master, the wolf is destroyed.

The sect leader of the Netherflame Sect, Netherfire.

The two men looked down at the critically injured and dying Gu Tianfeng from their elevated position.

His eyes were filled with the arrogance of a victor.

"Gu Tianfeng, stop struggling."

The Netherfire was surrounded by eerie blue flames, which even slightly distorted the surrounding space.

"The Soul-Devouring Poison has locked down your Realm Lord's Domain."

"Right now, you can't even detonate your own blood essence."

Wolf Extinction gave a cold laugh and went straight to the point.

"Hand over the array core token and incantation for the secret realm in the back mountain."

"We can consider leaving you a complete corpse."

"We might even spare those still-weaned servant disciples of your temple."

Upon hearing the words "secret realm".

Gu Tianfeng's body trembled slightly.

He raised his head and looked at the two ambitious sect leaders in front of him.

The bitterness at the corner of my mouth grew stronger.

"You have gone to great lengths, even going so far as to instigate a war between sects."

"Is it all for that secret realm?"

"Otherwise what?" Netherfire sneered. "Your Desolate Martial God Temple occupies the best resources in the Eastern Wilderness, yet you squander them, preferring to let them rot in your hands rather than share them."

"Since you're not capable of using it, then hand it over and let us make the best use of it!"

Gu Tianfeng smiled.

His laughter was unusually sorrowful.

"nice one……"

"Yes, there are definitely good things in there."

Gu Tianfeng's thoughts drifted to the forbidden area behind the temple, which was sealed off by numerous arrays.

Of course he knew what was inside.

Extraterrestrial demons!

It was a deformed monster born from the dark side of the universe, born to feed on the law of devouring.

By slaying the extraterrestrial demons, one can extract a top-tier resource called "Demon Origin Crystal" from their bodies.

That source crystal contains pure, unowned laws.

Even high-grade Heavenly Demon Source Crystals contain extremely rare fragments of immortal matter!

Fragments of immortal matter are key resources for understanding immortal matter.

Breaking through from the realm lord to immortality requires the help of fragments of immortal matter.

For any realm lord, this is an unparalleled treasure that would make anyone drool.

but.

What's the cost?

Gu Tianfeng looked at Lang Mie and Ming Huo with a look of pity in his eyes.

"All you know is that the Heavenly Demon Source Crystal is a good thing."

"But little did they know just how terrifying those extraterrestrial demons truly were."

Gu Tianfeng's voice echoed across the empty square.

"My Desolate Martial God Temple has been passed down for hundreds of millions of years."

"Do you really think that our hundreds of millions of years of sedimentation have never produced any immortal powerhouses?"

This statement came out.

Wolf Annihilation and Netherfire frowned simultaneously.

Chu He was also slightly taken aback.

Gu Tianfeng took a deep breath, suppressing the sharp pain in his chest.

"It has been sold."

"And there was more than one."

"A full three immortal ancestors!"

A mixture of reverence and grief flickered in Gu Tianfeng's eyes.

"However, at the deepest part of the secret realm, there is a deep abyss demon well."

"There, sealed away, is an immortal-level Heavenly Demon Emperor!"

"In order to suppress that Heavenly Demon Emperor and prevent it from breaking free and wreaking havoc on the entire Eastern Wilderness."

"The three immortal ancestors of my temple have all given up the opportunity to ascend to the Central Heaven Divine Continent."

"They voluntarily relinquished their immortal bodies, forever merging their souls and flesh into the demon-suppressing formation on the back mountain!"

Gu Tianfeng's voice grew louder and louder, like a cuckoo crying blood.

"We are not monopolizing resources!"

"We are using the entire foundation of our sect to suppress a catastrophe for this world!"

"And you..."

Gu Tianfeng pointed at the warships in the sky and at the arrogant enemies.

"You bunch of fools blinded by greed!"

"You destroyed the temple and broke the formation."

"Once the Heavenly Demon Emperor is born, everyone in the entire Eastern Wilderness will die!"

silence.

A brief silence fell over the square.

however.

Only three breaths had passed.

"Hahaha--"

Wolf suddenly burst into laughter, looking up at the sky.

The laughter was filled with disdain and mockery.

"Gu Tianfeng, do you think we're three-year-olds?"

"To suppress the demon, three immortals were sacrificed?"

"Save those lies for the underworld!"

Netherfire also shook his head coldly.

"Even as death approaches, they're still fabricating these absurd lies to scare us."

"In the Origin God Realm, everyone acts in their own self-interest, and heaven and earth will punish them."

"Who would sacrifice their own immortal path for others?"

"Since you refuse to hand over the token, then we'll go get it ourselves!"

They simply don't believe it.

In their value system, such a noble sacrifice simply does not exist.

This is nothing more than a clumsy excuse fabricated by Gu Tianfeng to protect his resources.

"Let's do it."

Minghuo's eyes turned cold as he issued the final order to kill.

"The Desolate Martial God Temple, leave no one alive!"
