What Counts as a Shock

Inside the Fire Element Hall of the Tianxin Sect!

"These are 108 top-tier divine artifacts! Everyone, please choose freely!" Zhang Xingfeng waved his hand, and instantly 108 top-tier divine artifacts appeared before the Tianxin Sect members.

Bi Yan, Bi Song, and other elders, along with the immortal elders, all stared in disbelief at what they were seeing.

One hundred and eight top-tier divine artifacts, what's so special about that?

How could they know that these were the results of Zhang Xingfeng's crafting of divine artifacts after he achieved minor success in his Divine Fire Body? Some of them were even obtained by Zhang Xingfeng in the forbidden glacier of the Source of the Forbidden Zone.

While top-tier artifacts may not seem like much to Zhang Xingfeng now, they are still an unimaginable surprise for any immortal. After all, even the Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Realm mostly possess top-tier artifacts.

"Now that the Qi Cauldron has reached the level of Saint Artifact, and it's handcrafted with plenty of materials for forging Saint Artifact will be flowing in like a river in the future. However, we can't keep Saint Artifact like this anymore. From now on, every disciple who reaches the Divine Human realm will be rewarded with a Saint Artifact!" Zhang Xingfeng thought to himself.

The sect leader of Bi Yan was the first to step forward and respectfully said to Zhang Xingfeng, "Thank you for your grace, Master!"

Immediately, one by one, the elders and other senior members stepped forward and respectfully said, "Thank you for your Supreme Elder!"

The high-ranking members of the Tianxin Sect looked at the hundred and ten top-tier divine artifacts before them. There were only about twenty people present, so no one was in a hurry.

They carefully examined each one and selected their favorite top-tier artifact in turn.

"Alright, everyone has made their choices. There's one more important thing I need to tell you!" Zhang Xingfeng waved his hand dismissively as he retrieved the remaining top-tier artifacts.

Immediately, everyone looked at Zhang Xingfeng, waiting for Zhang Xingfeng to speak.

"Nowadays, my Tianxin Sect has recruited quite a few disciples, but we now control the entire Northern Region of the Cultivation World, and the number of mortal planets we control is many times greater than before. However, the number of disciples recruited per planet has actually decreased. Some planets only recruit a few disciples a year, and the most recruit only a dozen or so. Therefore, I have decided to increase the scale of recruitment, and each planet can recruit one hundred disciples!" Zhang Xingfeng announced.

Upon hearing Zhang Xingfeng's words, Elder Biliu immediately stepped forward, as he was in charge of recruiting disciples.

"Senior Uncle, our Tianxin Sect also wants to recruit disciples, but our resources are limited. If we recruit too many disciples, we simply cannot provide them with enough crystals. Although we currently possess over ten million immortal crystals, we should consider the long term. Immortal crystals are becoming increasingly scarce! If we recruit too many disciples, what will happen in a billion years? What will our Tianxin Sect do if our disciples run out of immortal crystals?" Elder Bi Liu was clearly very anxious.

The other elders and senior members of the Tianxin Sect also looked at Zhang Xingfeng anxiously. Zhang Xingfeng held a prestigious position in the Tianxin Sect, and if Zhang Xingfeng insisted on going his own way, there was nothing they could do.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, as long as we get more Divine Stone Divine Stone, they will automatically absorb Spiritual Qi and transform it into immortal crystals. That's how Immortal Crystal Planet are created. In this way, won't our Tianxin Sect have a continuous supply of immortal crystals?"

Bi Liu immediately added, "Senior Uncle, that Immortal Crystal Planet was already excavated, and Senior Uncle also brought back the Divine Stone. However, one half of the Divine Stone was used as the foundation of the sect's protective array, and the other half was used by our immortal disciples for cultivation. Where would we get other Divine Stone?"

Zhang Xingfeng laughed and said, "Don't worry, I have it!"

Immediately, Zhang Xingfeng took out three Divine Stones from his spatial storage.

Except for Yu Yan and Rou, everyone else was petrified. They knew the value of the Divine Stone and the great battle to seize the Immortal Crystal Planet, a battle in which most of the Immortal Monarch- level experts of the Immortal Realm perished. Later, Zhang Xingfeng obtained a precious Divine Stone.

But now, Zhang Xingfeng actually took out three at once.

"In a moment, I will place these three Divine Stones in three locations on Fangyan Mountain, and set up a formation to prevent you from entering. Every now and then, the elders will go in and retrieve the immortal crystals," Zhang Xingfeng said with a smile. He was not worried at all that the elders would be unable to approach the Divine Stone, because even if their power was low, they could use tools, such as long spoons. After all, Divine Stone exert pressure on immortals, but not on objects.

"Yes!" Everyone became excited. The three Divine Stones could continuously produce immortal crystals!

Zhang Yu stepped forward and said, "Master, although this way we should have enough immortal crystals, who knows how long it will take for the Divine Stone to produce enough immortal crystals? The Immortal Crystal Planet is real, but how long did it take to form? We don't know that."

Yes!

How long did it take for the Immortal Crystal Planet to form? How long does it take to form enough Celestial Crystals? If the formation of Celestial Crystals is too slow, that would be bad.

"Hehe, Ayu, you are clever, but I had already arranged this. Biliu, listen to my command!" Zhang Xingfeng immediately gave the order.

Elder Biliu immediately stepped forward.

"There are 100 million immortal crystals here. Fifty million are for the core disciples, and the other fifty million are for recruiting disciples!" Zhang Xingfeng suddenly smiled and continued, "As for the disciples' inability to absorb immortal crystals, I think you know how to solve that. The immortal crystals for recruiting disciples will be distributed among the three Tianxin Sect's headquarters. Also, how the immortal crystals are used must be made public. I don't want any core disciples in my Tianxin Sect to embezzle them!"

Everyone was shocked once again.

One hundred million immortal crystals? Even if all the major powers in the immortal realm combined, they probably wouldn't have that many.

But what kind of expression would they have if they knew that Zhang Xingfeng actually possessed six trillion immortal crystals?

This 100 million immortal crystals is only one sixty thousandth of Zhang Xingfeng's total!

Stunned!

Apart from Yu Yan and Rou, as well as Ling Qi and others who knew the news early on, the elders and senior members were all dumbfounded.

"Bi Liu, aren't you going to take this mission?" Zhang Xingfeng seemed a little puzzled.

Bi Liu was immediately shocked, and then her eyes burned with fervor. She said, "Bi Liu will certainly live up to the expectations of my master. Ten thousand years from now, the Tianxin Sect will definitely become the number one power that dominates both the immortal and demon realms, and the number of disciples will far exceed that of other sects!"

Zhang Xingfeng nodded and said calmly, "Well, we've covered these minor matters. Now I'll announce the main purpose of my gathering everyone here!"

Everyone was stunned. Giving them top-tier divine artifacts and immortal Divine Stone wasn't the main purpose; it was just a side effect. Then...

"Everyone, I've gathered you all here to show you something," Zhang Xingfeng said with a smile to the elders of the Tianxin Sect and the senior immortals below.

Immediately, the eyes of all the high-ranking members of the Tianxin Sect, including Lang Feng, Zhang Yu, Zhang Kuang, Bi Yan, and Bi Song, lit up. Who was Zhang Xingfeng? Could the things he showed them be ordinary?

With a flick of his wrist, Zhang Xingfeng sent the Exquisite Pagoda flying from Zhang Xingfeng palm and landing in the center of the Fire Element Hall. The Exquisite Pagoda seemed to grow larger and larger, starting as the size of a palm and eventually reaching the height of the Fire Element Hall itself, almost piercing it.

"What is this? The top-tier artifact that Master just bestowed upon us seems to be trembling!" Sect Bi Yan was immediately shocked, and all the experts present stared in astonishment at the Exquisite Pagoda before them.

"This is the Scripture Tower I crafted. It's a low-grade Saint Artifact. Everyone is welcome to go inside and take a look." Zhang Xingfeng smiled as he looked at the stunned expressions on everyone's faces.

"Saint Artifact? What's that?" Bi Yan looked at her master, somewhat confused.

Zhang Yu was also a little confused. No wonder, Zhang Xingfeng hadn't told them about the Saint Artifact.

"Saint Artifact are one level higher than divine artifacts in terms of grade. Even a lower-grade Saint Artifact is far more powerful than a top-grade divine artifact! This Scripture Tower can be considered a lower-grade Saint Artifact in the spatial category," Zhang Xingfeng explained.

"What! It's even a level higher than a divine artifact!" With a gasp, almost every member of the Tianxin Sect in the entire Fire Element Hall stared in shock at the Exquisite Pagoda.

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and said, "Everyone, please follow me and go directly to the eleventh floor." Zhang Xingfeng immediately flew into the eleventh floor.

The elders of the Tianxin Sect, the senior immortals, and Yu Yan, Rou, Lang Feng, and others all followed them in.

This eleventh floor resembles a study, with three large bookshelves, each containing Jade Slip recording cultivation Method Formula.

"There are more than 200 cultivation manuals here. Each one can reach the Lower Heavenly God realm. Such Cultivation Method are almost impossible to find in the Immortal Realm," Zhang Xingfeng said with a faint smile, while he was admiring the interesting expressions on the faces of the elders and others.

The elders and immortal elders of the Tianxin Sect, including Lang Feng and others, were all stunned!

Lower Heavenly God!

How could such Cultivation Method exist in the Immortal Realm?

"Father, are these all secret manuals on the same level as the Six Revolutions Profound Body Art?" Zhang Lingqi was also a little surprised and shocked by this sudden arrival.

Zhang Xingfeng nodded.

"The True Person is indeed generous. A truly generous gesture! I admire him!" Lian Yang, as a representative of the group from the Immortal Emperor Land of Despair Star, also entered.

Lian Yang's cultivation journey had been incredibly long, yet even he had never seen a single manual capable of leading to the Lower Heavenly God realm. Now, Zhang Xingfeng had produced over two hundred such manuals in one go—it was truly astonishing! Of course, it also filled them with excitement.

"With these two sets of secret manuals, what do we, the Tianxin Sect, have to worry about in the future? Ah, Ancestor, if you could see such a situation, you would be very happy!" said one of the elders of the immortal sect excitedly.

"With these two sets of top-tier Method Formula, it's impossible for my Tianxin Sect not to become powerful!"

If immortal crystals Divine Stone are the external factors that make a sect powerful, then these secret manuals are the internal factors. Good secret manuals are much more important than immortal crystals Divine Stone!

Zhang Xingfeng smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't rush to sigh, everyone, please follow me to the twelfth floor!" Zhang Xingfeng took the lead and entered the twelfth floor.

One by one, the members of the Tianxin Sect entered.

The twelfth floor of this scripture tower is like a starry sky, boundless and limitless, with more than thirty shooting stars shining within it.

"Within that meteor-like light lies a set of secret manuals, more than thirty sets of secret manuals, each of which at its peak can reach the Upper Heavenly God!" Zhang Xingfeng's words were astonishing, leaving the high-ranking figures of the Tianxin Sect stunned once again.

"Upper Heavenly God? More than thirty sets?"

While everyone was shocked just now, they could still barely accept it and speak. But now their minds are completely blank from the shock.

Blank, completely blank.

After a while, the powerful elders and senior members felt a little better, but they were still a bit dizzy.

Today they have experienced too many shocks, from top-level artifacts to Divine Stone, then to 100 million immortal crystals, and then the discovery of Saint Artifact. Among the Saint Artifact, there are more than 2 secret manuals comparable to the "Six Revolutions Profound Body Art". Now it is incredible that there are more than 3 secret manuals that can reach the level of the Upper Heavenly God, which has made their minds a little overwhelmed.

Much later.

"Xingfeng, you really want to scare us immortals to death this time?" Zhang Kuang said with a chuckle.

Everyone burst into laughter.

They were all laughing happily and excitedly, overjoyed to see the more than thirty secret manuals in front of them.

Zhang Xingfeng looked at everyone and couldn't help but sigh, saying, "I originally wanted you to go inside and take a look at the higher levels of this Scripture Tower, but it seems you can't handle it!"

Immediately, everyone's eyes lit up, their gazes almost tangible.

"Go, go, of course we'll go! How could we not go? Such a good opportunity is rare!" Li Er immediately roared.

All the elders and senior members realized what was happening and expressed their curiosity to Zhang Xingfeng. Of course, they wouldn't be as reckless as Li Er.

"Huh? Weren't you worried about fainting from fright?" Zhang Xingfeng smiled slightly, but his eyes were fixed on Uncle Zhang's Zhang Kuang.

Zhang Kuang was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Xingfeng, being scared unconscious is a kind of happiness. Which sect could make me faint from fear when I see a treasure?"

"Okay, follow me!"

Zhang Xingfeng led the way into the thirteenth floor.

Three stars. As soon as they entered the thirteenth floor, everyone saw those three enormous stars.

"The three stars before us are real, not virtual, they are completely real. Only the master of this Scripture Tower can obtain the secret manuals from inside the stars without being attacked by the divine fire within. This thirteenth floor contains three sets of top-level secret manuals. There is one set of secret manuals in each star. Even in the Divine Realm, these are top-level secret manuals. Each set of secret manuals can be cultivated to the Heavenly Venerable Realm!"

"Celestial Venerable? What kind of realm is that?" Li Second Fool, while the others also looked at Zhang Xingfeng.

"The Celestial Venerable is the supreme being of the Divine Realm!" Zhang Xingfeng said calmly.

Everyone stared blankly at the three fiery stars in front of them, their minds filled with only the thoughts. "Stars, secret manual, supreme being of the Divine Realm!" Their minds were in turmoil from the shock.

Zhang Xingfeng couldn't help but smile as he watched many elders begin to circulate their energy to calm their boiling immortal power caused by excessive excitement.

"I was planning to tell you something else, but it seems I'd better not. Otherwise, if one or two of you Qi Deviation, that would be a huge joke!" Zhang Xingfeng thought to himself.
