The System Granted Me Invincibility, Setting Me on the Path to Becoming the Heavenly Emperor

16: Peak of Immortal Venerable Realm, Righteous and RighteousUnder one palm strike, the twelve experts Qi Huan brought were wiped out, leaving only Qi Huan alone.

”Do you know why I spared your life?” Qin Gelan spoke coldly.

”Jun... Junior does not know.”

Qi Huan survived, but he was already scared out of his wits, his voice trembling as he spoke.

”Xiao He said he could represent the Hall of Gods. Go back and tell him to vacate a place in the Hall of Gods; this Emperor intends to settle there.” Qin Gelan looked at Qi Huan as if he were looking at an ant.

The various factions were greatly shocked; he was going to take the fight to their doorstep.

For a moment, everyone felt some sympathy for Xiao He.

The Grand Elder of the Hall of Gods was a renowned existence throughout Divine Continent. Not only was his status lofty, but his strength was also formidable, second only to the Supreme.

But you just had to provoke a Supreme. Now, let’s see how you clean up this mess.

The various factions watched coldly from the sidelines, looking forward to the Supreme attacking the Hall of Gods.

Aren’t you a Transcendent Faction? Aren’t you high and mighty? Now, let’s see how you endure the Supreme’s wrath.

Finally, Qi Huan left in a pathetic state. Qin Gelan had used the full strike of the Strongest Immortal Emperor; after that one strike, he no longer had the power of a Supreme. He had just been putting on an act before.

But the others didn’t know that.

”Go, go, go, to the north.”

”Someone, open the domain gate! We’re going to the north.”

”Come, follow me to Divine Continent.”

Not only did the major factions of Divine Continent flock to the north, but even the four domains outside of Divine Continent were rushing toward Divine Continent.

The four Transcendent Factions that dominated the four domains—the Dao Tian Sect of the Eastern Wasteland, the Ice and Snow Divine Palace of the Northern Plains, the Loulan Empire of the Western Regions, and the Demon Domain of the Southern Ridge—led the way, with other factions from the four domains following suit.

They just damn well love to watch the commotion!

A small commotion wouldn’t be enough to make them act like this, but if it involved a Supreme, that would be different... Half a month had passed since the experts of the Hall of Gods were wiped out.

During these days, the various factions of the Shenxi Empire flocked to the Qin Family, wanting to establish a good relationship with them.

The current Qin Family was different from before. With a Supreme backing them, it was enough to make the major factions of the Shenxi Empire scramble to get in.

Even factions from the Tianheng Empire, a hostile nation that had been at war with the Shenxi Empire for many years, came to visit.

The stream of visiting factions was endless, and they all brought generous gifts. The gates of the Qin Family were nearly crushed by the crowds.

Qin Cang’s face was flushed with excitement as he welcomed the arriving factions.

The major factions all had their own motives, wanting to form a marriage alliance with the Qin Family. They had heard that the Young Master of the Qin Family had his engagement broken off not long ago.

Now was the perfect opportunity. They brought along their own gifted daughters, young misses, and Saintesses, all of whom had dressed up meticulously before leaving.

Some people also mocked the Liu Family. If the Liu Family had gone through with the marriage alliance, they would have indirectly clung to a Supreme.

However, they also thanked the Liu Family. Fortunately, the Liu Family had shit for brains and broke off the marriage; otherwise, it wouldn’t be their turn.

As for Liu Mu, he had already returned to the Liu Family. He was now filled with fear and regret. When he saw the Qin Family produce a Supreme, he had already regretted it.

Not only Liu Mu, but even Liu Xu was filled with remorse. If she had married Qin Gelan, she would be the Young Mistress of the Qin Family, and her status would be unimaginable.

However, it was too late now. Liu Mu had kicked them while they were down, and although the Qin Family didn’t pursue it at the time, it was only a matter of time.

As for running away, it was simply impossible. To curry favor with the Qin Family, the major factions were now keeping a close eye on the Liu Family.

If they dared to run, those factions would take the opportunity to capture them and send them to the Qin Family to gain favor.

No one had acted against the Liu Family yet, likely wanting to leave them for the Qin Family to handle personally. Otherwise, acting on their own might incur the Qin Family’s dissatisfaction.

In the courtyard, Qin Gelan was taking stock of his gains.

The System’s voice finally rang out:

”[Assisted the Qin Family in surviving the disaster of annihilation. Task completed. Rewards have been distributed. Please check them, Host.]”

”[Cultivation Reward: Realm increased to Peak Immortal Venerable Realm.]”

”[Five hundred emperor grade medicinal pills, three thousand other Medicinal Pills.]”

”[Physique Upgrades—Ancient Desolate Sacred Body reached Major Achievement, Eight Zhang Golden Body upgraded to Nine Zhang Golden Body, Devouring Body reached Major Achievement, True Dragon Undying Divine Body reached Major Achievement, Heavenly Evolution Divine Body reached Major Achievement.]”

”[Sword Dao Realm Upgrade: Original Sword (Entry Level). Sword Dao Realms: Sword Glimpse, Sword Entry, True Sword, Heart Sword, Dao Sword, Clear Sword Heart, Unity of Man and Sword, True Self Sword, Original Sword.]”

”[Daoist Law: Sword of Time and Space reached Major Achievement.]”

”[tower of time and space: The ratio between the time flow of the outside world and the time flow inside the tower of time and space is 1:10.]”

”[Formation Reward: Imperial Extreme Spirit Gathering Formation (Can be deployed directly).]”

”[strongest immortal emperor experience card (One Day), strangulation card (Ignores Realm, can instantly kill anything).]”

”[Special Reward: Vast Righteous Qi. Vast Righteous Qi is one of the strongest sources of power in the world.]”

”Holy crap! brother tong zi, are these the rewards you fought for on my behalf?” Qin Gelan’s eyes widened.

The strangulation card ignores Realms and can kill anything instantly, which means it can even kill a Supreme.

This is a powerful trump card. With this card, he can practically walk unopposed.

If any Supreme is blind enough to cross him, he could just use the strangulation card to kill them instantly. However, it shouldn’t be used lightly; there’s only one strangulation card, and it must be used at a critical moment.

Qin Gelan’s aura rose to the Peak Immortal Venerable Realm without any Bottleneck. There wasn’t even a Lightning Tribulation for the Breakthrough into the major Realm. This was cultivation given by the System, which stood above everything.

Qin Gelan had asked the System about it before, and brother tong zi’s answer was: ”Lightning Tribulation is derived from the Heavenly Dao. For the cultivation given by this System, let it try to strike once? It wouldn’t dare.”

Qin Gelan directly gave brother tong zi a big thumbs up.

Just listen to that; how badass. ”Let it try to strike once?”

Vast Righteous Qi surged from within Qin Gelan’s body. With the enhancement of the Vast Righteous Qi, Qin Gelan felt as if all his Daoist laws had received a massive boost.

As he brandished the Sword of Time and Space, he seemed to have a deeper understanding of time and space, and he could control it more effortlessly.

This wasn’t just because the Sword of Time and Space had reached Major Achievement, but also because of the enhancement from the Vast Righteous Qi.

If he used other Daoist laws, their power would also increase.

Qin Gelan could now be said to be invincible among those in the same Realm.

”Those Saints and Saintesses of Transcendent Factions aren’t even worth one of my hairs,” Qin Gelan thought to himself, the corners of his mouth curling up unconsciously.

Qing Luo tilted her head and looked at Qin Gelan. She didn’t know what fun thing the Young Master had thought of to be so happy, but she really wanted to know.

Feeling Qing Luo’s gaze, Qin Gelan coughed awkwardly and gave her another few hundred Medicinal Pills.

The little girl’s eyes curved into crescents as she held the pills. She then tossed one into her mouth. Hmm... so sweet.

Seeing Qing Luo eating Medicinal Pills—which many factions would find hard to obtain—as if they were candy, Qin Gelan shook his head and smiled.

Later, Qin Gelan found Qin Cang and gave him the emperor pills and several thousand other Medicinal Pills. Qin Cang’s hands trembled slightly as he held the pills.

emperor grade medicinal pills! Even for a Transcendent Faction, taking out these few hundred emperor pills would probably be a struggle. Yet Qin Gelan had just produced them casually.

Besides the emperor pills, there were other pills for Healing, Bone Growth, Vein Shaping, and cultivation, all of which were rare Advanced Medicinal Pills.

”Were these all given by that Senior?” Qin Cang asked. The Senior he referred to was naturally that mysterious Supreme.

If Qin Cang knew that the Senior he spoke of was his own son, one wonders what he would think.

Right, right, right, just keep thinking that. Given by that Senior... This old man even thought of the excuse for me.

Qin Gelan nodded.

”Gelan, has that Senior taken you as a Disciple?” Qin Cang couldn’t help but ask. If he was taken under a Supreme’s wing, there would be hope for the Qin Family’s rise.

Although he guessed it was likely the case, he still wanted to hear a definite answer from Qin Gelan.

”Uh... I suppose so.”

Otherwise, what could Qin Gelan say? Could he say that he was that Supreme?
