The core disciples had already dispersed, but the elders and others of the Tianxin Sect entered the main hall of the Tianxin Sect.

Zhang Xingfeng currently possesses five mid-level divine artifacts in spare time. One is a newly crafted defensive artifact, and the other four were obtained from the Zhang Xingfeng Source of the Forbidden Zone. He obtained thirteen divine artifacts from the Source of the Forbidden Zone, Void Breaker one for himself, two for Yu Yan, one for Tianchenzi, one for Xiao Little Dragon, one for Zhong Heng Lang Feng, and giving two to Bi Yan. Now he has four remaining artifacts, which Zhang Xingfeng plans to give to his four brothers— Zhaoyun and the other three.

In the past, the so-called Eight Immortals were quite famous in the Cultivation World. Zhang Xingfeng, as the eldest, ended up being the one with the lowest cultivation level. After he failed to Tribulation Transcendence, the Tianxin Sect also faced several crises. However, it was always Zhaoyun and the others who came to the aid of the Tianxin Sect in times of crisis. Whether for public or private reasons, Zhang Xingfeng felt that it was only right to give the four of them divine artifacts.

There was another divine artifact that was prepared for his senior master, Tianyanzi.

"My Tianxin Sect's status in the Cultivation World is rising higher and higher, and the number of experts is increasing. Our sect's Immortal Offering Group now has nearly sixty members, and the Immortal Pavilion has twenty or thirty. Our power is growing stronger and stronger. Seeing all this, I am truly happy, extremely happy!" Zhang Xingfeng said to everyone.

The disciples of the Tianxin Sect below, even Tianchenzi and Tianyanzi, were excited. They had all experienced those years of struggle. Back then, the Tianxin Sect was even attacked by small, ordinary sects, and it was only thanks to the arrival of Zhaoyun and his group, and Zhang Xingfeng's intervention, that they were spared. But in less than a century, the Tianxin Sect had grown to such a state that even those in the Purple Cloud Realm Tianxin Sect them with great respect. This was the wish of the Tian Xin Sect members for so many years!

Now it has finally come true, and the reason it came true is because of their Supreme Elder, Zhang Xingfeng. It can almost be said that the prosperity of the Tianxin Sect is due to Zhang Xingfeng's efforts alone!

"It is a great joy that my Tianyanzi has returned to the sect. Tianyanzi, as the most senior elder in our Tianxin Sect, if I do not have a weapon that I can show off, I will be laughed at by sects such as Purple Cloud Realm. Uncle, this is a defensive artifact that I have just forged. I hope you will accept it." Zhang Xingfeng walked up to Tianyanzi and a mid-level artifact appeared in his hand.

Draw your weapon?

In the Cultivation World, wouldn't Top-grade Immortal Artifact be readily available? However, this was merely Zhang Xingfeng's explanation. But now that Tianyanzi Master Bi Yan possesses a divine artifact, it wouldn't be good if Tianyanzi, a senior two generations above Bi Yan, didn't have one.

Seeing that his junior apprentice was able to forge divine artifacts, Tianyanzi knew that it was quite easy for his junior apprentice to create them, so he did not refuse and accepted the task.

Tianyanzi looked at Zhang Xingfeng with satisfaction. "Good, good, good. My Tianxin Sect is Tianxin Sect to have you. Junior brother, back then when you took in Xingfeng, who was already quite old, I disagreed, thinking that his Qi Ingestion had passed the optimal period for cultivation. Fortunately, you insisted, otherwise when would I have been able to see this day!"

Upon hearing this, Tianchenzi laughed at Tianyanzi, "Hahahaha... Junior brother, putting aside everything else, just taking Xingfeng as my disciple is the thing I'm most proud of. I still remember how you looked back then. You were nagging me, saying, 'Junior brother, Xingfeng is not young anymore. His meridians are already fixed and it's difficult to expand them further. He might not even reach the Golden Core Stage in his cultivation!' Haha, even after so long, I still remember it clearly!" Tianchenzi laughed heartily.

Tianyanzi immediately felt embarrassed and a little ashamed, and said angrily, "You remember so clearly, then tell me, back when we first entered the Tianxin Sect, you slept in the same room with me, and every day you..."

Tianchenzi knew something was wrong. He hadn't expected Tianyanzi to bring up such a shameful incident from his childhood. In a panic, he covered Tianyanzi's mouth with his hand.

As soon as this action was made, everyone in the main hall of the Tianxin Sect burst into laughter.

Zhang Xingfeng then said, "In the past thousand years, my Tianxin Sect has faced several calamities, and it was my brothers who came to the rescue in times of crisis. Fortunately, otherwise, with my strength that was not even at the Great Accomplishment stage, I would not have been able to protect my Tianxin Sect at all."

Bi Yan immediately added, "Back when Master was in the sect, Zhaoyun and several others came to protect our Tianxin Sect when it was in danger. Even after Master failed to Tribulation Transcendence and passed away, Senior Zhaoyun and the others still did not abandon our Tianxin Sect. They resolved several calamities. Our Tianxin Sect will forever remember the great kindness of Senior Zhaoyun and the others!"

Zhaoyun, Biaohang, and Lanhai immediately said, "Big Brother helped us a lot back then. These things are only what we should do, only what we should do!" The other seven members of the Eight Immortals were all orphans adopted by Zhang Xingfeng back then. How could they forget Zhang Xingfeng's kindness to them?

Zhang Xingfeng immediately said, "Zhaoyun and the others, stop talking. We are brothers, but it is true that you have saved my Tianxin Sect several times. As your elder brother, I don't have much to give you, so I'll give you these four divine artifacts!" With a wave of his hand, Zhang Xingfeng brought the remaining four divine artifacts to the group.

Zhaoyun and the others immediately declined.

Zhang Xingfeng deliberately put on a stern face and said, "Do you want me to be unable to live in peace? Besides, you know that I can now forge divine artifacts myself, so I have no worries about them. Therefore, you still accept it. Huh? You still don't accept it? Don't you acknowledge me as your elder brother?!" Zhang Xingfeng's aura suddenly intensified.

Zhang Xingfeng's imposing presence remained in the minds of Zhaoyun and the others. Knowing that their elder brother's decisions were irreversible, they had no choice but to accept the four divine artifacts.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and nodded.

Zhang Xingfeng now has the Rou Jin, the Void Breaker, and the Heavenly Fire Armor by his side. He also has seven Jie Sha Blades and the Sun-Shooting Divine Bow prepared for other disciples! And of course, there's Tinayu and the Dragon Spirit that doesn't recognize its master!

The Sun-Shooting Sun-Shooting Divine Bow is a top-tier offensive artifact; how could Zhang Xingfeng easily give it away? Only someone with at least the power of Great Luo Golden Immortal could even begin to unleash its full potential. Otherwise, it would likely be coveted by other experts and snatched away. Currently, those at the Great Luo Golden Immortal or above include Tianchenzi, who dislikes attacking and prefers to enjoy a carefree life with his Fairy Yuxian; the three Yan Bao brothers already possess the Yan Yang Three Thorns; and Lang Feng and Little Dragon each have their own most suitable artifacts. Therefore, Zhang Xingfeng can only wait!

Just as Zhang Xingfeng and the others were excitedly walking out of the main hall, beautiful celestial music suddenly filled the air. Everyone immediately looked up.

A wisp of cloud drifted over and arrived outside the Tianxin Sect's mountain gate, but was blocked by the sect's protective formation and could not enter.

The floating clouds dispersed, revealing an old man with an air of otherworldly grace. The old man immediately said, "I am one of the Ten Radiance Immortal Lords under the Great Emperor Wei, Immortal Monarch Yu Yang. I have specially brought this invitation for Immortal Monarch hope Immortal Monarch will open this sect-protecting formation and allow Yu Yang to enter. Is that alright?"

Everyone was stunned!

The Great Emperor Ziwei? The Ten Radiance Immortal Lords? The Star Peak Immortal Monarch?

Zhang Xingfeng laughed loudly, and with a thought, the protective formation of the sect opened a passage on its own, allowing the Immortal Monarch to enter.

Yu Yang remembered Great Emperor Ziwei's instructions. "You must not show any arrogance. Zhang Xingfeng, although only an early-stage Immortal Monarch, possesses several top-tier divine artifacts. Even against an early-stage Immortal Emperor, he can survive. Killing you would be a piece of cake!" Yu Yang trusted Emperor Ziwei completely, and naturally no longer had any arrogance.

Great Emperor Ziwei was mistaken; how could he know that Zhang Xingfeng possessed the ultimate move, the Eight Divisions Heavenly Dragon? This move would increase Zhang Xingfeng's power eightfold! In reality, Zhang Xingfeng could survive even against a mid-stage Immortal Emperor! Of course, that was merely surviving.

With a surge of immortal energy, Immortal Lord Yuyang sent the invitation flying toward Zhang Xingfeng.

Zhang Xingfeng accepted the invitation, scanned it with his Divine Sense, and a smile appeared on his face. He said, "Would the immortals like to rest at my Tianxin Sect for a while?"

Yu Yang immediately smiled and declined, saying, "That's alright. The Great Emperor is waiting for me to report back. Immortal Monarch Xingfeng, I'll take my leave now!"

Zhang Xingfeng nodded, and Yu Yang turned to leave.

At this moment, two more clouds drifted in from the sky. When they came closer, it was discovered that they were two immortals.

The two immortals floated in directly through the passage that Zhang Xingfeng had just opened.

"I am Cun Yu, the eldest disciple of Azure Emperor of Fengyuan Gate. I have been ordered by Azure Emperor to deliver this invitation." The young man glanced at Yu Yang, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant, and he returned to his usual refined demeanor.

"I am Feng Gang, the eldest disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Tianlong Sect. I have been ordered by the Heavenly Emperor to deliver this invitation." Feng Gang was a middle-aged man whose cultivation level was also at the Immortal Monarch realm.

Zhang Xingfeng accepted the invitations from the two men, glanced at them, then looked at the three of them, and immediately burst into laughter. "Hahahaha... What kind of day is this? Three great Immortal Emperor have all come to invite me to the Immortal Realm on the same day. What am I supposed to do? Which one should I go to?"

Yu Yang immediately said, "The Immortal Monarch has already promised me, so of course you will come to my Purple Cloud Realm. I am truly sorry that you two are a little late!"

Cun Yu immediately laughed and retorted, "Even if Immortal Monarch Xingfeng agrees, so what? Does he necessarily have to go to your Purple Cloud Realm first? Can't he come to my Fengyuan Gate first and then to the Purple Cloud Realm?"

Feng Gang also said to Yu Yang, "Immortal Fellow Yu Yang, what you just said was wrong. As Cun Yu Fellow Cun Yu said, Immortal Monarch can go to all three places, it's just a matter of order. But you said that just now, which was a bit Hegemonic Way."

A slight smile appeared on Zhang Xingfeng's face. Before he could even speak, the three messengers started arguing.

The elders of the Tianxin Sect had just been intimidated by the so-called three Immortal Emperors. The three Immortal Emperors were supreme beings in the Immortal Realm, and now that they had been invited by all three at the same time was truly remarkable. However, just as they had calmed down, they were taken aback to see the three Immortal Monarch starting to argue.

Seeing the three Immortal Monarch' reaction, Zhang Xingfeng smiled and said, "Everyone, please calm down, please calm down!"

At this moment, the three Immortal Monarch realized that the final decision still rested with Zhang Xingfeng, and their words were of no use. So they stopped arguing and all looked at Zhang Xingfeng, hoping Zhang Xingfeng would make the decision.

Zhang Xingfeng looked at the three invitations.

The invitation from the Great Emperor Ziwei was full of praise, while the invitations from the Azure Emperor and the Heavenly Emperor were much more intimate, as if they were speaking to their nephews. This was probably because Zhang Xingfeng had some contact with them in the Source of the Forbidden Zone.

Zhang Xingfeng looked at the three of them and said, "Gentlemen, I really can't decide. How about this, first come, first served? Fellow Immortal Yuyang arrived first, so I'll go to the Purple Cloud Realm first, then to Fengyuan Gate, and then to the Tianlong Sect. What do you think?"

Zhang Xingfeng had already spoken, so what else could the three of them say? Besides, even if they did say something, it would be pointless and might even leave a bad impression on Zhang Xingfeng. It was better for them to be more open-minded. So, all three of them smiled and agreed that the decision was good.

Of course, Immortal Lord Yuyang was genuinely happy and satisfied. However, the other two Immortal Monarch were somewhat depressed.

"Immortal Monarch, I will return to report to the Great Emperor now. Farewell!" Immortal Lord Yuyang said happily. Zhang Xingfeng nodded, and Immortal Lord Yuyang turned and rode away on a cloud.

The elders and others from the Tianxin Sect looked at Zhang Xingfeng with a different expression.

"Xingfeng, you have actually reached the Immortal Monarch realm! This truly makes your master very happy!" Tianchenzi said with a smile.

The people around immediately congratulated Zhang Xingfeng on reaching the Immortal Monarch realm. In fact, only Sui Feng Yu Yan knew that Zhang Xingfeng had reached the Immortal Monarch realm; the others were unaware.

The Immortal Monarch are too far removed from them, like a myth!

Zhang Xingfeng laughed and said, "As long as everyone works hard, they can also reach the Immortal Monarch realm, or even the Immortal Emperor realm."

Little Dragon yelled, "Let's go, let's go! Aren't you going back to cultivate? It's so sad to see Second Brother pulling further and further away from me!" Little Dragon said.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately decided to work hard in their cultivation and went back to prepare for it.

Zhang Xingfeng was taken aback. He glanced at Little Dragon, smiled, and then took Yu Yan 'Yu Yan hand, saying, "Yu Yan, let's go back. I'm going to the Immortal Realm in a few days. I don't feel safe going there this time, so I guess I can't take you with me!"

Upon hearing Yu Yan, Yu Yan's face immediately turned cold, and she vanished in a flash, already heading back! Seeing this, Zhang Xingfeng inwardly cursed himself for being so stupid; hadn't he just brought up the very thing he didn't want to discuss?
