Slay the Wicked! Obtain Treasures!

"Gulp." Uncle Nine swallowed hard, his pupils shimmering under the reflection of the lightning that had struck so close. The ten-zhang crater before him hammered heavily against his heart.

The man in the black robe was caught in the lightning, his very skeleton clearly visible.

Is this, damn it, a lightning curse?

This is basically just summoning a lightning strike, isn't it?

Even Uncle Nine could not calm his heart at this moment.

He looked at Fei Luo subconsciously, his throat feeling a bit dry, but Fei Luo's words plunged him into a state of petrification once more.

"Oops, used too much force. Three tenths of my power was enough to fry him; he was too fragile." Fei Luo rubbed his nose, looking a bit embarrassed.

"This..."

Uncle Nine was petrified, left completely speechless.

What kind of freak was Fei Luo? And that didn't seem to be the Maoshan Sect's Five Thunders Heart-Burning Curse, either.

"Xiao Luo, you..." Uncle Nine didn't know what to say, his eyes filled with confusion as he looked at Fei Luo.

"Master, this technique is one I adapted from the Five Thunders Heart-Burning Curse. I call it the Nine Heavens Thunder Invocation Art. It was my first time using it; I hope I didn't scare you." Fei Luo told Uncle Nine a well-intentioned lie.

He couldn't exactly say he was a cheater with a system-gifted cultivation technique, could he?

Most importantly, the system could even automatically cultivate a technique of this magnitude?

Hearing Fei Luo's words, Uncle Nine was even more overwhelmed.

Adapted?

Self-created?

A genius, a true genius!

I, Lin Jiu, am truly blessed by the ancestors to have such a disciple. What more could I ask for?

"Master, let's go. Now that the mastermind is dealt with, I need to go explain the situation to Master Ren." Fei Luo stepped forward and said softly.

With the mastermind and the controlled zombies eliminated, the system rewards had already appeared. Fei Luo needed to finish up here before returning to claim them.

"That's fine. But Fei Luo, I noticed that Master Ren seems to..."

The two then walked toward Ren Family Town, and Uncle Nine began to lecture Fei Luo with earnest advice.

He spoke of how opportunities must be seized, how good men are hard to find, and other such sentiments.

Before long, the two had returned to Ren Family Town.

The town was empty, most people having already returned to their homes, unaware that a bloody disaster had just been quietly resolved by Fei Luo and his master.

"Master, I'll head to Master Ren's mansion first."

"Very well, I shall return as well. Tonight was truly heart-stopping."

Fei Luo bid Uncle Nine farewell and headed toward the Ren Mansion, while Uncle Nine parted ways and headed toward the Justice Manor.

Ren Mansion.

"I have fulfilled my promise. The Feng Shui Master who was plotting against your family was an evil cultivator; he has been executed. Master Ren, you can rest easy now." Fei Luo sat in the Ren Mansion and spoke to Master Ren.

"Master Fei Luo, your great kindness to the Ren family is something I can never repay. I can only offer my daughter..."

Ren Tingting blushed at her father's words, burying her head against her chest.

"Stop, stop, stop!" Fei Luo immediately interrupted Master Ren. "Master Ren, protecting the righteous path of the world is the duty of us cultivators. But ultimately, Old Master Ren sowed many karmic debts back in the day. If you want the Ren family to prosper, seeking out those Feng Shui Masters is useless. As long as you perform good deeds and accumulate virtue, blessings will naturally follow."

Hearing this, Master Ren looked enlightened. He stood up and bowed repeatedly. "Master's words have awakened me. With the world in chaos, warlords carving up the land, and the people suffering, I, Ren, will certainly perform more good deeds and provide relief to the refugees to seek blessings."

"Father, you must also stop associating with Huang Baiwan from now on. That man has a crooked heart..."

Hearing his daughter's words, Master Ren nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. "My daughter is right. That man is treacherous; associating with him will surely bring disaster upon our family."

Watching the changes in the father and daughter, Fei Luo nodded inwardly.

In his vision, several strands of rich golden light drifted from the tops of Master Ren's and Ren Tingting's heads toward his body. The passive effect of the Great Freedom Primordial Dao Scripture activated, automatically converting these strands of meritorious golden light into dense mana.

"Master Ren, Miss Ren, I shall take my leave."

With that, Fei Luo stood up, nodded slightly to the two, and strolled out of the Ren Mansion.

Watching Fei Luo's receding back, Ren Tingting opened her mouth to speak several times but stopped.

She wanted to keep Fei Luo at the mansion, but the crisis was resolved, and it was impossible for him to stay.

Seeming to see through his daughter's thoughts, Master Ren spoke slowly, "Daughter, this man, Fei Luo, is high-spirited and possesses a heart for the world. He is a true man of character. Furthermore, he has no family yet. If you like him, you must use extraordinary means."

Master Ren's eyes were bright, filled with joy as he watched Fei Luo's back outside the window.

"Father, what do you mean?" Ren Tingting asked, confused by her father's words.

She did like Fei Luo. Setting aside his looks, his god-like strength alone was enough to make him a hero.

What young girl doesn't dream of love?

Ren Tingting was just twenty and had never been in a relationship. Fei Luo, who had suddenly burst into her life, attracted her like a celestial being.

"Daughter, if you can marry Fei Luo, you would be his primary wife. This boy is certainly not one to stay in a small pond. Besides, I can tell he is a man of integrity and responsibility. You just need to do this, and this..."

"What? Dad, you want me to throw myself at him?" Ren Tingting exclaimed in disbelief.

"Daughter, don't make such a scene. Fei Luo is no longer a mere mortal. If you can become his wife, even learning a trick or two would be better than living a mediocre life as a commoner. Your father is getting old; if I could have such a fine son-in-law..."

Fei Luo was naturally unaware of this conversation.

At this moment, Fei Luo had already sprinted back to his small courtyard, washed up, changed into clean clothes, and sat upright on his bed.

His essence, energy, and spirit were all adjusted to their peak state.

"System, claim the rewards."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully claiming the rewards. Obtained: Top-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill x10."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully claiming the rewards. Obtained: Youth-Preserving Pill x10!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully claiming the rewards. Obtained: Heaven Origin Soul Gathering Pill x20!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully claiming the rewards. Obtained divine ability: [Mountain-Overturning Curse]!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully claiming the rewards. Obtained divine ability: [Earth-Shaking Curse]!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully claiming the rewards. Obtained cultivation technique: [Star-Plucking Steps]!"

Hearing the series of rewards from the system, Fei Luo's face lit up with joy.

"Youth-Preserving Pill? It can keep one's youth eternal and prevent the face from aging? Good stuff."

The Heaven Origin Soul Gathering Pill could unconditionally increase cultivation by one stage for those in the Foundation Establishment Realm. It was effective even for those in the False Core Realm, serving as a pill to increase mana or to replenish a depleted reserve.

When fighting and casting skills, how could one manage without mana?

He still had a few Great Restoration Pills left, which were sufficient, and now these twenty Heaven Origin Soul Gathering Pills perfectly filled the gap.
