Pay to Cultivate Immortality? My Sect is Completely Free - Chapter 376

Chapter 376 At This Moment, Time to Collect the Debt!

Empty!

Completely empty!!

Nothing at all!!!

Pushing open the treasury doors, the Patriarch of the Gao clan and the two gate-guarding elders stood frozen in place.

The Gao clan treasury, after millions of years of accumulation, had been piled with who knew how many treasures!

From heavenly immortal artifacts at the top down to spirit stones used by ordinary mortal cultivators, plus mountains of immortal crystals…

It could be said it once filled a space spanning thousands of miles!!

But now, as far as the eye could see, it was utterly barren!!

Even the floor tiles had been pried clean!!

Patriarch Gao’s hair and robe whipped in disarray.

The two gate-guarding elders looked ashen.

“Who!”

“Who is it!!”

“Who on earth!!!”

Patriarch Gao roared to the sky, his eyes bloodshot, furious to the point of madness!!!

Millions of years of the Gao clan’s toil and effort!!!!!

Had been stripped in a single stroke!

“Activate the Immortal City formation!!”

“Seal off every exit—find them at all costs!!”

“Find him, and I’ll tear him to pieces!!!”

Patriarch Gao bellowed, issuing order after order.

“Boom!”

“You all deserve to die!!”

Then, his eyes turning cold, he slapped the two gate-guarding elders to death on the spot.

“Lord……..”

After doing all this, Patriarch Gao turned and looked at Su Bai, utterly despairing.

“I don’t care what’s happened to your Gao clan, nor do I bother to care!”

“I only want those two million!”

Su Bai, playing Jin Buhuan, said calmly, his voice indifferent, treating Patriarch Gao with complete disdain.

Given Jin Buhuan’s character, he would likely have acted even harsher!

Patriarch Gao’s expression froze………

Having lost so many resources from the treasury, he was now being asked to produce another two million lower-grade immortal crystals……….

A moment later, in the main hall.

Patriarch Gao, looking at the hundreds of Gao clan elders summoned before him, took a deep breath and said, “Elders, our Gao clan treasury has been robbed, and we urgently need two million immortal crystals.”

“You are all of the Gao clan. Everything you have today comes from the Gao clan!”

“Now the Gao clan faces a crisis. I hope the elders can make a contribution!”

“With these two million immortal crystals, our Gao clan can cling to the Aoki Immortal Sect’s favor; our future development need no longer be cautious—it will accelerate!”

“At that time, the immortal crystals you submit will be returned to you doubled!”

Hearing this, the assembled Gao elders fell silent.

Two million immortal crystals was not a small sum!

Who knew if handing over their immortal crystals now would ever be returned later!

Still, faced with the unquestionable look of their clan head, the elders had no choice.

“I have five hundred lower-grade immortal crystals.”

“My life span is ending; after reserving some to replenish longevity qi, I only have a little more than a hundred left.”

“Alas, Patriarch, you know my branch has grown for a hundred thousand generations; now with hundreds of billions of people, we’re flat broke………..”

………………..

One by one, Gao elders kept contributing, and together with Patriarch Gao and the assets of a few ninth-grade heavenly immortals from the clan,

they ultimately managed to gather only one million lower-grade immortal crystals!

One million still short!!

The Patriarch of the Gao clan handed that last million immortal crystals into Su Bai’s hands.

Su Bai accepted every one of those crystals without hesitation.

At the same time, his gaze was icy and indifferent.

Patriarch Gao knew it still wasn’t enough!!

In the end, he grit his teeth and brought forward all the elders’ weapons.

Hundreds of heavenly immortal artifacts of various grades!

They barely made up the remaining one million lower-grade immortal crystals.

After doing all this, Patriarch Gao was already in tears.

Now, the Gao clan had been completely stripped bare!!

But as long as they could cling to the Aoki Immortal Sect, it was all worth it!!

“Lord, are you satisfied?”

After handing all the weapons over to Su Bai, the Gao clan patriarch asked obsequiously.

“Yes!!!”

Su Bai nodded, taking the million lower-grade immortal crystals and the hundreds of heavenly immortal weapons.

“In that case, I take my leave.”

Su Bai tossed out that line, then turned and began to walk away.

“Sigh, lord, um… could you leave a way to contact you?”

“I’ll send resources every hundred years!”

Patriarch Gao hurried after him, asking awkwardly.

He had his own scheme: offering resources was for show; getting the lord’s contact was the real prize!

That way, if the Gao clan ever faced something they couldn’t handle, they could call on the lord for help!!

Su Bai gave a faint smile—he naturally understood Patriarch Gao’s thinking.

He left behind a Transmission Jade Slip; at the thought of possible future scenes, he began to laugh quietly to himself.

The Jin Buhuan that Su Bai had transformed into swaggered out of Gao clan city; no one dared stop him.

After all, this was a lord of the Aoki Immortal Sect!!

Half a day later, Su Bai’s Jin Buhuan guise arrived at a deserted place and reverted to his true form.

“Whoosh!”

Beside him, his Second True Form appeared as well.

The Second True Form held dozens of storage rings, every one packed full!

Everything from the Gao clan treasury was inside them!!

Su Bai then handed the newly acquired million lower-grade immortal crystals and the hundreds of heavenly immortal weapons to his Second True Form to take back to the Heavenly Dao Sect.

He didn’t want to risk losing such a vast treasure in the coming battle!

This enormous cache of resources could be said to exceed that of the entire continent combined!!

Besides longevity qi, the immortal crystals contained huge amounts of immortal qi!

Immortal qi is far higher-grade than ordinary spiritual energy!

With so many immortal crystals, the continent’s development would accelerate dramatically!

The sooner these goods reached the Heavenly Dao Sect, the sooner they could rest easy.

Besides, the Second True Form could return to his side at any time—there were no restrictions and nothing would be delayed.

He himself then turned his gaze back toward Gao clan city.

Interest collected.

Next, it was time to collect the debt!!

The sword qi threading through Gao clan city was none other than left behind by the Peerless Heavenly Venerable!!

Although the Peerless Heavenly Venerable was only Su Bai’s registered disciple on record, in Su Bai’s eyes he had long been treated as a personal disciple!

When his disciple ascended and was obstructed by the Gao clan, a great battle had erupted.

And the result, as Patriarch Gao had already said!

The Gao clan dared to severely injure his disciple……….

If Su Bai did not make the Gao clan pay a sufficient price, how could he demonstrate the way of a master?

His disciple was bullied—should he curl up like a coward?

I, Su Bai, am absolutely not that kind of person!!

Impossible!!!

He returned to Gao clan city. The entire city was sealed off now, and the formations had been activated.

Su Bai slowly rose into the sky and lifted the sword in his hand.

Divine Forbidden Domain, tenfold combat power—activated!!

Sovereign Over All Realms’ Supreme Law, fusing the will of an entire world’s people!!

And on top of that… the Second True Form, after returning to the Heavenly Dao Sect to drop off the resources and then coming back, merged in, doubling his combat power once more!

With one stroke, he slashed toward Gao clan city!!
