"All right, now that we have a soul-killing weapon, we won't fear them no matter how many powerful fighters they send into Golden Cicada Ridge. Let's gather resources and raise our Cultivation!"
Fang Chen spoke to Great Emperor Huo Li, Myna bird, and the others.
Myna bird said to Fang Chen, "Fang Chen, we can rule Golden Cicada Ridge now! We can claim a mountain as our own and recruit followers, just like the Five Great Families. Then we won't have to toil away mining. There are so many Great Emperors here that even if we charge them half what the Five Great Families used to squeeze out of them, I'm sure they'll gladly join us!"
Great Emperor Huo Li also said to Fang Chen, "Fang Chen, the Immortal Peak Competition is about to begin. You need to make the most of your time to train!"
Fang Chen nodded. "Then let's do as Huahua suggested!"
With that, Fang Chen released the Spirit Planters he had confined in the Swallowing Heaven Tower.
"We're finally out!"
The Spirit Planters were delighted to be free.
Great Emperor Yunxin flew over to Fang Chen. "Floating Immortal Fellow Daoist, I thought you'd forgotten us!"
"How could I forget you?" Fang Chen said with a smile. "I said I'd release you once I dealt with Nebula Palace. Now it's time to keep my promise!"
Great Emperor Yunxin and the other Great Emperors were astonished.
"Floating Immortal Fellow Daoist," Great Emperor Yunxin asked, "does that mean you've dealt with Nebula Palace?"
Fang Chen nodded. "Yes. And not just Nebula Palace. I've also dealt with the Sword Alliance, Yellow Sand City, Purple Light Pavilion, and Ice Snow Palace. I haven't killed all their members, but they no longer dare gather against me or cause trouble!"
