The Imperial Capital Trembles in Terror, Secrets of the Immortal Manor

The Purple Tenuity Imperial Capital was shrouded in deep night.

Although the earth-shattering massacre that took place during the day had ended, the thick stench of blood still lingered in the air above the city.

The once bustling capital city, filled with revelry and celebration, is deathly silent tonight.

The Second Prince's Residence

"Quickly! Burn all these letters! And that strategist who suggested recruiting Dongfang Yueming... get rid of him! He must be completely eliminated!"

The Second Prince, Zi Xiao, was currently roaring in the secret chamber, his face covered in sweat. His usually composed expression was now filled with terror.

"Your Highness, is there any need to be so tense?" a trusted aide whispered. "That scoundrel killed the Old Three, not us..."

You don't know anything!

Zi Xiao whirled around abruptly, kicking his trusted aide to the ground, and roared in a trembling voice:

"To quell his anger, Father Emperor personally burned even the Old Three to ashes! Even the thousands of people in the Old Three's lineage were implicated and executed!"

"In that man's eyes, the royal family? That's a joke!"

"If he finds out we also had designs on him... there won't be a single survivor in this mansion tomorrow!"

He took a deep breath and shakily pulled a storage ring from his pocket.

"Go! Bring out that 'Nine-Leaf Purple Ganoderma' that has been treasured for three thousand years from the treasury, along with this one million immortal stones... Deliver it first thing tomorrow morning!"

"Remember! Be humble! Say it's... a gift from Your Highness to apologize!"

The same scene also took place at the eldest princess's residence.

That night, none of the Purple Tenuity Imperial Capital slept. They trembled with fear, terrified that the blue-robed demon god would appear at their doorstep at any moment.

Dongfang Yueming had no idea how frightened he had caused the capital. At this moment, he was sitting in the main seat of the hall, toying with a purple-gold jade slip in his hand.

This is a "parting gift" personally delivered by Zi Wuji, the ruler of the Ziwei Kingdom.

"The Myriad Phenomena Immortal Manor..."

Dongfang Yueming probed the jade slip with his divine sense, browsing through the information within.

"A Daoist temple left behind by an unparalleled being known as the ' Immortal Venerable Myriad Phenomena ' in ancient times."

"Located at the border between the Purple Star Immortal Dynasty and the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty — the Void Rift Valley."

"It is said that this Immortal Venerable Myriad Phenomena of Myriad Manifestations had a great fondness for collecting rare and precious treasures from all over the world, especially... collecting divine metals!"

Upon seeing this, a sharp glint suddenly flashed in Dongfang Yueming's previously calm eyes!

"God gold?!"

He continued looking down.

[Inside the Myriad Phenomena Immortal Manor lies a ' Five Elements Divine Metal Mountain,' forged by the Immortal Venerable from countless mineral veins collected throughout his life.]

[Among them are fourth-tier, fifth-tier, and even... the legendary sixth-tier immortal gold!]

"Sixth rank!"

Dongfang Yueming's breath hitched slightly.

The fourth rank corresponds to the Immortal King, the fifth rank to the Immortal Emperor, and the sixth rank... that corresponds to the supreme divine material of the Immortal Ancestor level!

His current [Origin Immortal Physique] is at the third tier (Immortal Lord level). To break through to the fourth tier (Immortal King level), he needs a large amount of fourth-tier immortal gold as support!

And if you want to go even further... fifth-order and sixth-order Immortal Gold are indispensable!

"Moreover, this immortal abode seems to contain inherited insights about the 'fusion of laws'..."

Dongfang Yueming closed the jade slip, a satisfied smile curving his lips.

"That old fox, Zi Wuji, is quite adept at dealing with people."

He understood Zi Wuji's thoughts very well.

The old emperor was afraid that if he stayed in the capital for too long, he might go on a killing spree if things didn't go his way, so he quickly released this bombshell news in an attempt to lure this plague away.

"However, this intelligence is exactly what I need right now."

The "Origin Immortal Art: Immortal King Chapter" has been Perfection developed.

As long as he obtains enough immortal gold to elevate his physical body to the fourth level, he can break through to the Immortal King Realm without any bottlenecks!

"In that case, let's go."

Dongfang Yueming stood up and glanced at Qingxue, who was pouring tea for him.

Qingxue's hand trembled slightly, as if she sensed something. She raised her head, and her usually cold eyes now held a hint of barely perceptible sadness and hatred.

"Master... are we leaving?"

"Yes, let's go to the Myriad Phenomena Immortal Manor."

Dongfang Yueming nodded, then changed the subject, his voice turning somewhat cold.

"However, before I leave, there's still one thing I haven't settled."

Qingxue's delicate body trembled suddenly, and she subconsciously gripped the teapot tightly.

Some dogs think that changing owners will make them forget the fact that they once bit someone.

Dongfang Yueming looked towards a direction shrouded in mist outside the capital.

That's... the Clear Spirit Sect's headquarters!

"Since they dared to sell you off like merchandise, then be prepared... to be liquidated."

"Qingxue."

"This servant is here." Qingxue's voice was choked with emotion.

"Lead the way."

With a wave of his sleeve, Dongfang Yueming unleashed a gentle force that enveloped Qingxue, and the two of them instantly rose into the air.

"Go to the Clear Spirit Sect!"

"I want them to know..."

Those who mess with me will pay the price!

Watching the two figures depart, Zi Wuji, who had been secretly observing from the depths of the palace, finally let out a long sigh of relief and collapsed onto the dragon throne as if he had been completely exhausted.

"They're gone... finally gone..."

"That jinx has finally left the capital!"

But then he looked in the direction of the Clear Spirit Sect, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes.

"Liu Changqing, oh Liu Changqing, good luck to you."

"Of all people to mess with, why did I have to provoke this devil?"
