The Desolate Heavenly Emperor is Even More of a Trap Than the Immortal Realm!

At this moment, everyone was watching the old man who had been killed with a single finger.

Someone recognized him; he came from the Purple Origin Immortal Mansion.

The old man's name was Qin Shan.

He was once a famous emperor, and just now he Tribulation Transcendence with them to become an immortal and ascend to the Boundless Immortal Realm.

But unexpectedly...

Life is unpredictable; in the blink of an eye, I died here.

Xu Yang and the other cultivators felt their scalps tingle and their faces turned grave upon seeing this scene.

They all had a premonition about their future.

Qin Shan, lying on the ground, is a microcosm of them.

Tiger General's single finger strike not only killed Qin Shan, but also brought these ascended beings to their senses, shattering their illusions.

After a moment of silence.

Some of these ascendants regained their senses and immediately became vigilant, only to find that their cultivation and Dao principles were being restricted.

It was suppressed by this fairyland.

The armored celestial soldiers realized this as well, and one of them immediately shouted sternly, "I advise you not to move rashly, and not to make any more unnecessary sacrifices..."

"Soon more people will ascend; right now... you're not so rare anymore."

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts and dared not make any further moves.

Xu Yang stood at the back of the crowd, coldly observing everything. Although his expression was serious, he was not overly flustered.

What happened today was... truly a shock to them.

They hadn't even had a moment to enjoy their ascension to the celestial realm before this drastic change occurred.

"Hehehe..."

Tiger General's massive body slowly rammed into them, facing Xu Yang and the others, and said, "You've all seen it; this is the consequence of not digging."

"Remember, here you either give up your body or your soul!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression froze, and they felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

At this moment, Tiger General gently raised his hand.

Only then did everyone realize that his single finger strike had killed Elder Qinshan, but had not harmed his soul.

There were no physical injuries.

Tiger General said casually, "Take care of it."

"Yes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several armored immortal soldiers stepped forward and used a soul-binding technique to extract Qin Shan's soul.

Qin Shan's soul was not injured, but it was suppressed and he could not escape.

His face was filled with panic as he begged for mercy, "Spare me, spare me! Let Wu go, I'll dig... as long as you give me a body to possess, I'm willing to stay here forever to dig for Immortal Crystal."

Tiger General remained unmoved, and even the celestial soldiers were numb to it.

They extracted Qin Shan's soul bit by bit and then sealed it into a small bead.

It should be a magical artifact used to store one's soul.

"Please spare me! I've cultivated myself for over 23,000 years, and finally achieved immortality!"

Give me a chance.

No matter how much Qin Shan's soul wailed, it was to no avail; it was quickly sealed inside the bead.

Xu Yang and the others watched this scene with bated breath, none of them daring to utter a word.

Everyone was worried that they would be the next one to be killed.

However, this was not the end. Several more armored immortal soldiers stepped forward and completely peeled off Qin Shan's skin.

Then, like clothes, they were folded neatly.

Upon seeing this, Tiger General frowned slightly and ordered, "While it's still fresh, send the materials to the Crimson Fire Immortal Palace. Be careful with the human skin; don't tear it."

"Yes!"

The armored soldiers, having received their orders, respectfully said a few words and then turned to leave.

Xu Yang stood in the back row, somewhat puzzled. What exactly did the Immortal Realm want the souls and human skins of these immortals for?

However, given the current situation, he can only think about it in his heart.

Soon.

The remaining body of the Elder Qinshan was completely refined by a burst of immortal fire, turning into ashes.

It had only been a few hours since he arrived in the fairyland.

Just like that, it's gone.

Everyone watched without daring to breathe, afraid of angering Tiger General and being the next to die.

"So there really are traps in Wonderland! I want to go home!"

This is what many people are thinking right now, but there's no going back.

Tiger General then looked at everyone and grinned:

"Don't worry, as long as you dig for the Immortal Crystal, you'll get a year-long vacation every hundred years, during which time you can still travel around the beautiful landscapes of the fairyland."

Xu Yang couldn't help but purse his lips. A holiday only once every hundred years? That's outrageous.

Compared to some of the unscrupulous sects in the various Immortal Mansion, they are far more treacherous.

Next...

Xu Yang and the others were assigned to the Immortal Crystal Mine, and were not given any tools before being asked to start mining.

At first, the task was to dig up a thousand Immortal Crystal every day.

There are also armored celestial soldiers patrolling; those who slack off will be punished directly, and if anyone is found hiding something, they will be killed on the spot, their souls captured and their skin peeled off.

As for rest?

If the task isn't completed, you'll have to keep digging without rest. Anyway, since you're an immortal, the spiritual energy here is abundant, so even without rest, your magical power won't run out.

It's all about digging and digging until you completely lose your freedom.

Xu Yang initially thought that digging a thousand grains a day wouldn't be too difficult at first, but when he actually started digging, he realized...

Immortal Crystal veins are much harder than spirit stones, and even if they activate their magic power and use spells and supernatural abilities, they are still extremely difficult to mine.

Let alone a thousand, even a few hundred would be difficult.

"What a lousy fairyland! I should never have ascended! It's all that scoundrel Shen Baixiu's fault!"

"Yes, who knew that we would look like this after ascension?"

"We've always lived a carefree life in our Immortal Mansion, never suffering such humiliation! This bird-like immortal realm is better left unvisited!"

"Alas... all the fairies, Immortal Mountain, and celestial palaces of my dreams have vanished in an instant! To become an immortal, I even abandoned those dozens of my Daoist companions."

"When will this kind of life ever end?"

"Hmph, don't worry, we've already ascended. Soon the Great Emperors of the Nine Provinces and other Immortal Mansion will also ascend, and people will come to accompany us."

As Xu Yang worked, he listened to the complaints of the people around him.

Unfortunately, it's too late to regret it now.

The armored soldiers ignored their complaints; since they were already there, there was no point in saying anything.

As long as they work obediently, you don't need to worry about them.

Xu Yang kept a furtive look at the immortal soldiers, his short sword magic weapon in hand, as he continuously dug for Immortal Crystal.

Unlike others, he never stopped.

He thought to himself, "Dig more, or we'll really lose big this time!"

Xu Yang thought of something, sighed inwardly, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes. "But after this time... Desolate Heavenly Emperor, it's time I paid back what I owed you!"

"After all, I've done something so risky!"

Thinking of this, his heart bled again, and he vowed never to make a deal with the Desolate Heavenly Emperor again, because he could never repay the debt, never be able to repay it at all.

Xu Yang has no idea how much he has sacrificed for this...

Sudden!

Xu Yang suddenly had a feeling, and thought to himself, "It seems that the Desolate Heavenly Emperor is even more of a swindler than the Immortal Realm!"

"Staying here doesn't seem so bad!"

Just as he was feeling indignant and his mind was filled with all sorts of wild thoughts...

This time, Shen Baixiu, the 'Snake Head' who led everyone to ascend to the Immortal Realm, was also received by a maid from the Immortal Palace.

We entered the heart of the fairyland, into the majestic and imposing Boundless Immortal Palace.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, the Realm Lord requests your presence!"

The palace maids were dressed scantily, with fair skin and beautiful faces. When they bowed, their chests were covered in snow-white fabric, revealing deep cleavage.

Shen Baixiu nodded slightly, took a deep breath, raised his head, and strode in confidently.
